China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 794. The store-smashing incident, Yu Ma's new script

Feiyu Entertainment did not release any movies during the New Year’s Day and Spring Festival this year.

But this did not affect the popularity of Feiyu Entertainment at all.

First, the New Year’s Eve concert caused a viewing frenzy, and then the company’s year-end party caused another big sensation.

Looking at the film market, Feng Xiaogang's film "Mr. Six" did not perform well at the box office, and "Shin Godzilla" had a strong box office momentum in the early stage, but was later ended by "Kung Fu Panda 3".

"King of Comedy 3" was based on the name of Chow Yun-fat. Although the box office was okay, the word of mouth was very bad.

Gong Huang's "Journey to the West: The Monkey King 3 Strikes Back the White Bone Demon" was also released during the Spring Festival.

This movie and the previous one "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven" were produced by the same company and are also marketed as mythological 3D movies.

In the movie, Gong Huang is still domineering, but the film, which cost 4.5 million to produce, only earned 3 billion at the box office due to its not-so-good reputation and the influence of "Kung Fu Panda ".

The box office performance of other domestic films is average, and this Lunar New Year period is completely dominated by foreign films.

This makes the audience think of Feiyu Entertainment.

Perhaps only the movies produced by Boss Cao can restore face for domestic films.

The audience also feels that the Chinese New Year would be a little lacking without the movies produced by Boss Cao.

However, no one expected that what happened just before the Chinese New Year would be comparable to a blockbuster movie.

What happened is that the Feiyu Fresh Supermarket, which Boss Cao had just opened for two days, was smashed and splashed with feces!

The popularity of Feiyu Fresh Supermarket has indeed affected the interests of some people.

Boss Cao, you are selling goods online and we can’t do anything about it.

But in your fresh food supermarket, not only are vegetables, fruits and meat sold cheaply, but they are also advertised as safe, not soaked in various potions, and not injected with water. How do you want the rest of us merchants to survive?
Seeing that Feiyu Fresh Supermarket is doing a booming business and even has customers queuing up, some merchants who only pursue profits and don't care about the lives of others are very unhappy.

So, they found some thugs to cause trouble in the fresh food supermarket.

Today I smashed the glass in your shop and threw feces on you as a warning.

If you don't raise the price and continue like this, I will throw some dead rats in front of your store until your store can't be run.

They thought that this would disgust Boss Cao and make him more difficult to deal with.

But they overlooked, who is Boss Cao?

He is the richest man in the world and a conscientious entrepreneur with hundreds of millions of fans.

After this incident was exposed, netizens not only cursed those who smashed the store online, but also expressed support for Boss Cao online.

Everyone also called on the relevant departments to arrest the suspects as soon as possible and allow these stores to open normally.

In Hangzhou, Ma Yun saw this happening and felt relieved, amused, and helpless.

What’s satisfying is that these people’s behavior can really disgust Cao Yu.

You are the only one who has a sense of social responsibility? Now you are being targeted, right?
But he also felt that people who used this method were a little funny.

Smashing glass and throwing manure will not only have no impact on Boss Cao, but will also expand Cao Yu's reputation.

Unfortunately, you are advertising for Boss Cao. If you don't know, you might think that thief Cao gave you money.

After this incident, Feiyu Fresh’s name became known throughout the country.

If this goes on, how can I manage my Hema?
But Mr. Ma also knew that with Cao Yu's vengeful character, he would definitely not let it go.

Ma Yun was right, Cao Yu was very angry.

Running a fresh food supermarket, a project that makes almost no money, is not only for the health of the people, but also to make some people make changes.

Furthermore, these stores are the result of Yang Shuxue’s hard work over this period of time.

In the past few days, Yang Shuxue had hardly any rest in order to support Cao Yu and to ensure that the first batch of supermarkets could open before the Spring Festival.

Either he is negotiating with suppliers or supervising the decoration of the store, which requires a lot of effort.

As a result, you smashed it right after opening?
For Cao Yu, this was intolerable!
On that day, I posted a message on Weibo, which had not been updated for a long time.

“I was shocked to learn that this happened. This is a violation of the law and a challenge to social stability!
You only pursue profits and don’t care about everyone’s health, but I care!
If you are dissatisfied, why can't you do the same as me and also pay attention to product quality?

If people all over the country can eat healthy and safe food, I would rather close all the fresh food supermarkets. I mean what I say.

By doing this, I will indeed affect the interests of those who only pursue profits, but I am not afraid!
I have thousands of users standing behind me. If you want to fight, just wait and see!"

As soon as this long Weibo post was released, it received countless likes, comments and reposts, and netizens all supported Cao Yu and condemned the troublemakers.

Some netizens also dug up Cao Yu’s previous statement: “I don’t want China to become the new sick man of East Asia.”

These words, combined with this incident, made netizens and many Chinese people realize the greatness of what Boss Cao has done.

Therefore, netizens called for protecting the best Boss Cao.

In addition to netizens, many celebrities and directors in the literary and art circles, and many entrepreneurs in the business community have also come out to express their demands, demanding that the relevant departments solve the case as soon as possible.

Even several TV stations reported this incident, causing this initially not-so-big event to quickly ferment on the Internet and become known to everyone.

Now that the matter has become so serious, the relevant departments can no longer sit still.

Yang Shuxue was naturally angry, and used her connections to continue to put pressure on the relevant departments.

Although there were only three days left until the Spring Festival, due to Boss Cao's great influence, the police were under pressure and immediately mobilized manpower, and they arrested the suspect in just one day.

Even the mastermind behind the incident was found out.

It turned out that it was a foreign brand supermarket that was responsible.

Originally, these supermarkets wanted to make a fortune before the Spring Festival, but in the end, all the business was snatched away by Boss Cao.

After the relevant departments issued the announcement, fans also revealed the family background and addresses of those who smashed Feiyu Fresh Supermarket.

They retaliated by pouring feces into these people's homes.

Feiyu Fresh Supermarket’s business is better than before, with more people.

Many people are willing to drive for hours just to buy safe ingredients.

"Honey, don't be angry. This is actually good for us. It's like advertising. The supermarket business has been very hot these past two days. Yesterday, the sales of several stores exceeded one million."

Seeing that Cao Yu was still angry, Yang Shuxue couldn't help but feel sorry for her man.

"I feel sorry for you."

Cao Yu said indignantly: "You have been busy for almost three months and just opened the first batch of stores, and they are like this. This is destroying the fruits of your labor."

"Okay, I know you feel sorry for me."

Yang Shuxue leaned gently in Cao Yu's arms: "I was thinking yesterday, although our fresh produce is not expensive, the profit is still okay. If we can open a hundred stores across the country, then we can set up a large agricultural group?"

"This is a good idea. Agriculture may still be a hot spot in the future, so we can do it."

Although Cao Yu was young, he still touched Yang Shuxue's cheek lovingly: "You don't build houses now, farming is indeed a good way to go, but..."

"Just what?"

"It's just a little weird that my Shuxue has become a farmer."

"So what? What's wrong with farming?"

Yang Shuxue smiled and said, "We have the same piece of land in Yanjing, and we have been farming for many years. Besides, my Xiaoyu is also from a peasant family, so I can be considered to follow my husband wherever he goes."

"Shu Xue."

When Cao Yu heard this, he immediately embraced the woman in his arms.
Although she is not married, Yang Shuxue's words already show that she is the daughter-in-law of the Cao family.

Although the store smashing incident was just a small incident, it had a huge impact.

Not only did it increase Boss Cao's prestige, it also made Feiyu Fresh Supermarket a household name.

As a result, the businesses of Meituan and Youduoduo have experienced a surge in sales.

Many people have called on Boss Cao to open a store in their hometown as soon as possible.

But the New Year is coming soon, and these things can only be done after the New Year.

At the same time, Cao Yu was also thinking that after the agricultural project was launched, he would let Zhao Liying and the little girl Yang Chaoyue be the spokespersons, as they both should have experience in farming.

If Yang Chaoyue is trained well and allowed to work hard, she may become the next Zhao Liying.

Although Cao Yu posted a Weibo to express his attitude regarding the store smashing incident, he did not have to deal with it personally, so it was naturally resolved by Yang Shuxue who sent someone to handle it.

Because he is too busy.

Before the holiday, he not only had to accompany Yang Shuxue and Zhang Jingying, but also visited Yang Mi's home, and then spent the New Year with Li Xiaoyu and his parents.

After the first day of the Lunar New Year, he immediately flew to Hong Kong to wish Aunt Liu a happy new year and spend the New Year with Master Liu.

Now, whenever there are festivals, he would wish to divide himself into several parts.

After all, there are many women and many children.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, he also went to South Korea to visit Lee Boo-jin and her son.

Lee Kun-hee is old and in poor health, so Cao Yu must go to visit him during the New Year to fulfill his duties as a future son-in-law.

Jun Ji-hyun just gave birth to a daughter, and he also wants to be with her.

Although Director Ha was not present at this year's Spring Festival Gala, the ratings were still average, only a little over 30%.

In addition, Feiyu's evening party was so popular that many young people gave up the Spring Festival Gala. However, the song "Ruyuan" sung by Zhou Di on the Spring Festival Gala became the most popular song of this Spring Festival Gala.

This is also thanks to the contribution of Boss Cao in writing the lyrics and composing the music.

Online comments even compared this year's Spring Festival Gala with Feiyu's year-end party.

Although the Spring Festival Gala is more grand and has a better tone.

But judging from the audience’s reaction, the Spring Festival Gala still lost.

Cao Yu returned to Yanjing after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Most of the employees of Feiyu Group had already returned to their jobs and started the new year's work.

"The Legend of Nine States" officially started filming after three months of preparation.

Song Zu'e has been unhappy these days because he hasn't found an opportunity to take down Cao Yu.

But the filming of this drama was about to start, so she had no choice but to join the crew first.

As for the relationship with my godfather, I'll have to find another opportunity later.

Cao Yu did not attend the opening ceremony of this drama because Stephen Chow's movie "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back" was about to start filming.

In addition, the project of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is about to be approved, and the script of "Nobody" has also been found.

Including the three films "Dying to Survive", "The Eight Hundred" and "The Love Sage" that were completed last year, and "Red Ling" which is currently being filmed, Feiyu will have at least six films released this year.

Just after the Chinese New Year, China Film Group found Feiyu and said that it wanted to start a science fiction movie called "The Wandering Earth" and asked Boss Cao if he was willing to invest.

After the movie "Gravity" became a big hit, China Film wanted to adapt this novel to the screen.

But it was the time when the leadership of China Film Group Corporation was undergoing a handover, so it was delayed until 2015.

This film requires a lot of special effects and a huge investment. By bringing in Feiyu Entertainment to work on it, we can, on the one hand, leverage Boss Cao's reputation and achieve high box office results.

It will also allow Feiyu's special effects company to make this movie even more exciting.

Naturally, Boss Cao agreed to invest 45% in this movie without hesitation and to produce it together with China Film.

While Cao Yu was preparing for this movie, in Xiangyang, Chen Kaige’s new movie "The Legend of the Demon Cat" finally started shooting after several years of preparation.

At this time, it is already March. Spring is in full bloom, all things are reviving, and it is also the mating season for animals.

On March 5th, "The Monkey King 2" started filming in Xiangshan.

This time, Cao Yu personally sent Jing Tian, ​​Ni Ni, and Zhang Tian'ai to the crew, and then met with Yu Zheng in Hangzhou.

Yu Zheng has already revised the script of "Story of Yanxi Palace" according to Boss Cao's requirements, and he also wants to discuss several other films with Boss Cao.

On the cruise ship on West Lake, Cao Yu was reading the script while enjoying the warm breeze.

On the side, Nazha and Li Wei were elegantly making tea for Boss Cao.

“Mr. Cao really knows how to enjoy himself.”

Seeing the two stars’ professional tea-making skills, Yu Zheng was filled with envy.

After a while, Cao Yu finished reading the script and nodded, saying, "This revision is good. Let's start casting next month."

"Okay Mr. Cao."

Yu Zheng agreed and then took out a script: "Mr. Cao, Huanyu has two more dramas this year. Here are the scripts. Do you want to invest in them?"

"Let me see."

Cao Yu took two scripts and found that one was called "Dream Back to Chaoge" and the other was called "The Phoenix Prisoner".

Although he had heard of these two dramas, he had never watched the first one and he didn't even know where it was broadcast.

As for the second part, the only thing I remember is Guan Xiaotong's sewing machine-shaped hair.

However, this "Dream Back to Chaoge" reminded him of a film called "Fengshen: Chaoge Storm" that he participated in before his rebirth.

At the beginning, this movie was recruiting actors in the Chinese community and it was a big deal. He also submitted his information to the crew, but ended up only playing a martial arts role and didn't even have a chance to show his face.

Unfortunately, this movie was not released before his rebirth, so I don’t know how it performed at the box office.

But judging by the cast and the director's seriousness, it shouldn't be bad.

"I'll find the entertainment company that's in charge of this project if I have the chance."

Although Cao Yu was holding Yu Zheng's script, he was thinking about other movies.

Yu Zheng had no idea what Boss Cao was thinking. He thought that Boss Cao was dissatisfied with the script and was very nervous.

Sure enough, I heard Boss Cao flip through the script and throw it on the table: "Shooting this kind of script is a complete waste of film and television resources."

"."

Yu Zheng didn't know how to respond to such harsh words.

"Dream Back to Chaoge" was indeed a script he wrote casually two years ago. He planned to promote several new actors in the company, especially Wu Jinyan, who he was very optimistic about.

But he spent a lot of effort on the script of "The Phoenix Prisoner". How could it be considered a waste of film and television resources?
Cao Yu noticed that Yu Chaochao looked a little dissatisfied, and said coldly: "Let's not talk about "Chaoge", just look at "Phoenix Prisoner". The story is fragmented and the plot is watered down. Are you going to fool the audience like this?"

"Mr. Cao, I know you have high standards."

Yu Zheng wanted to argue, but considering Boss Cao's status, he quickly changed his tone: "Then I'll go back and change it."

"Don't make 'Chaoge'. It's a waste of investors' money."

Cao Yu said as he picked up the script and threw it directly into the trash can. He then said, "Come back to me when you have revised "The Phoenix Prisoner". As an entertainment company, the works we produce must be worthy of the audience."

Yu Zheng felt a little distressed, but didn't dare to say anything.

Boss Cao is qualified to say such things.

"Also, you should know the reputation of Feiyu over the years. Since Huanyu has our shares, we must pass on this reputation and absolutely cannot produce bad movies. If you ruin our brand, I will not forgive you!"

"Mr. Cao, I understand, I understand, I will definitely make this film a success."

Yu Zheng was sweating as he spoke. He stood up and nodded nervously.

I felt deeply that Boss Cao’s requirements were really too high.

"Then I'll wait for the results."

Cao Yu finished speaking and waved his hand: "You go first."

Yi Zheng left on a small boat, and only Cao Yu and Nazha were left on the big ship.

"Honey, the way you threw the script just now was so majestic."

Nazha and Li Wei, one on each side, leaned in Cao Yu's arms.

This generation of girls may have watched too many dramas about domineering CEOs, and their eyes are full of pride and sincere admiration for the men.

"well enough."

The place you live in changes your mood and the environment you take care of changes your body. Although Cao Yu has been a boss for such a long time and is relatively low-key, his temperament has long been different.

Several people were drinking tea on the West Lake and sightseeing for a while. Nazha suddenly said, "Dear, this place is so beautiful. I will buy a house nearby first, so that I can come here often in the future."

When Li Wei heard this, he also said, "I want to buy a house near Taihu Lake and make it our home."

Cao Yu smiled and said, "Why buy a house? You already live in my heart."

"Live in your heart?"

The two were stunned for a moment, then when they understood, they immediately broke into smiles.

Although this earthy love talk is a bit corny, it still makes the two of them happy for the whole day when it comes from the mouth of their lover.

However, Cao Yu still gave the two some money so that they could buy a house.

Although the house is not cheap, for Boss Cao, it may just be the bank interest.

And it will be convenient for me to go on vacation and date in the future.

Cao Yu had a villa by the West Lake. He stayed there with two girls for three days. Then he received news from the company that there was indeed a movie script called "Fengshen: The Storm of Chaoge".

However, the project has not yet started because the investment budget has not yet been made.

"Tell them they can find me when it's time to start."

Back then, Cao Yu didn't even have a supporting role in this movie, but now he is going to become one of the producers of this movie.

In early March, "Joy of Life 2", which the audience had been waiting for for a long time, was broadcast on Mango TV.

Due to the popularity of the first season, the audience has been waiting for the second season for a long time. Coupled with the promotion of Douyin, the ratings reached 2.9% after it was aired. It is sure to be another hit drama.

Although Fei'e Video updates the series two hours later than TV stations, the first two episodes have been played over 20 million times.

Such hot ratings make other TV stations and other video platforms jealous but helpless.

Many TV stations began to regret that they should not have given this drama to Mango TV.

Therefore, many TV stations have set their sights on Feiyu’s “Knowing or Not” which was completed last year and is currently in post-production.

They believe that Feiyu attaches great importance to this drama and it will definitely not be bad.

However, when these TV stations contacted Boss Cao, he was already in Korea.
