China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 801 799. Director Chen surrenders, Ruth is to be disciplined
In the crew of "Youth", Feng Xiaogang thought that Boss Cao had feelings for the auditioning girl Miao Miao, so he used the excuse of wanting to take another look. Feng Xiaogang immediately understood what he meant.

Making things difficult for actresses and taking advantage of the situation is a common practice in the entertainment industry and is not surprising.

He immediately whispered, "Mr. Cao, this girl's dance is the best in today's audition. How about having her have dinner with you after the audition? That way you can get to know her better."

The implication is clear enough. If you think it's just about eating, you're stupid.

"Forget it, I have something else to do tonight."

But Cao Yu remembered that Miao Miao might be Zheng Kai's wife in the future. Zheng Kai is now an artist in the company and actually has no other ideas.

Besides, aren’t there many girls around who can dance?
He just wanted to give Li Yitong a chance.

But Feng Xiaogang was surprised by what Boss Cao said. We are all in the entertainment industry, why do you have to pretend in front of me?

Did I misunderstand? Didn't Boss Cao have a crush on Miao Miao?
But to praise his own people?

This is not over yet
But Cao Yu glanced at the girl still standing on the stage and suddenly said, "How about this, let's do as you say and make her one of the female leads. Select five candidates first, and I'll make the final decision."

After saying that, he prepared to leave and decided on the TV series he had just thought of.

"Okay Mr. Cao."

Seeing that Boss Cao had given in a little, Feng Xiaogang felt a little relieved.

Cao Yu was planning to go back to the company to start preparing for several TV series he had just planned. In Hangzhou, Ma Yun was also setting his sights on a TV series.

Ali Pictures invested in two movies last year, which will be released this year.

Although Mr. Ma is very confident about the box office, he has also heard that Feiyu Entertainment has actually made a lot of money from TV dramas in the past two years.

As an entertainment company, we cannot just focus on movies; TV series are also a very important development direction.

Mainly, Boss Cao started his career with TV dramas.

At the beginning of the year, there was a drama called "The Princess Weiyoung". Zhao Yanzi liked this good script very much, so Ma Yun just invested half of the production cost.

At the same time, Yang Ying, who was highly praised by the company, was asked to play the female lead in this drama, which was considered as bringing in money into the crew.

As long as "The Ferryman" starring Yang Ying sells well, "The Princess Weiyoung" will definitely become a hit thanks to the popularity of the movie.

However, I recently heard from the crew of "The Ferryman" that Yang Ying's acting skills gave the director a headache, and the show, which was originally scheduled to be completed in April, was delayed to May.
As a result, the filming start time of "The Princess Weiyoung" can only be postponed to May.

“What a headache”

Ma Yun rubbed his aching head. Logically, Yang Ying came from Feiyu Entertainment after all. The other actors in Feiyu all had good acting skills. How could this Yang Ying not satisfy the director?
I hope that under Wong Kar-wai’s guidance, Yang Ying won’t let down when performing in “The Princess Weiyoung”.

Yang Ying has been a little bit high-spirited lately.

First she was the heroine in the movie "The Ferryman", and now she is the leading actress in the costume idol drama "The Princess Weiyoung".

A series of resources, much better than in Feiyu.

She felt that with these two dramas, she would definitely make Boss Cao regret not trying to keep her.

Yanjing, Feiyu Theater.

Feng Xiaogang personally saw Boss Cao out. As soon as he walked out of the theater, he met a familiar middle-aged man who was about to enter the door.

"Director Chen?"

Feng Xiaogang thought he had seen it wrong, so he rubbed his eyes and found that he was right. The person who came was none other than Brother Chen Kai, who had always been at odds with Cao Yu.

Brother Chen Kai greeted Feng Xiaogang with a nod, but he extended his hand to Cao Yu with a big smile on his face: "Boss Cao, that's great. I was just about to go in to see you."

"???"

Feng Xiaogang was quite stimulated today. First, he was ignored by the leaders of several TV stations, and then he was stimulated by the fact that Boss Cao made a lot of money.

Now seeing Brother Chen Kai’s attitude, I am even more confused.

You are the great director Chen, aren't you filming in Xiangyang? Why did you go to Yanjing to see Boss Cao in person?

I had to hold on to Boss Cao's thick legs tightly. There was no other way.

I didn’t expect that you, Director Chen with thick eyebrows and big eyes, would also betray us?

"It's Director Chen. What do you want to talk to me about?"

Cao Yu was also very surprised. Could it be that this director Chen with thick eyebrows and big eyes wanted to find him to promote "Legend of the Demon Cat"?
Brother Chen Kai looked at his watch and said with a smile, "Boss Cao, it's time for dinner. Why don't you give me a quick meal and chat while we eat?"

"Sorry, I don't have time today."

Cao Yu didn't want to eat this meal at all. Besides, you want to raise the flag of surrender, and I should accept it?

just wait.

Although Boss Cao ruthlessly rejected him, Brother Chen Kai did not dare to show any dissatisfaction this time. He even smiled regretfully and said, "Then tomorrow or the day after tomorrow will be fine."

"talk later."

Although Brother Chen Kai has a great reputation among directors, Cao Yu is a capital tycoon. He just responded casually and left with his secretary.

"Boss Cao is still angry."

Brother Chen Kai watched Cao Yu get into the car, and thought of his previous complaints and curses against him, feeling a little guilty.

On the side, Feng Xiaogang felt very happy. Although Director Chen came to please him, it was too late.

Who told you to call Boss Cao a thief before? You deserve what happened now.

Seeing Director Chen still staring at Boss Cao's car in a daze, he came over and said, "Director Chen, they've gone far away, stop looking."

Brother Chen Kai turned around and said sarcastically, "Director Feng, you look pretty good lately."

"You look good, too."

How can Feng Xiaogang look bad? Recently, during the casting for "Youth", many new girls in the entertainment industry came to please him, which made him very happy.

"Director Feng, I heard that you made a big deal about your audition this time. Congratulations in advance on your box office success."

"Thank you. I am grateful to Boss Cao for this."

Feng Xiaogang raised his head proudly and said deliberately: "I hope your "Legend of the Demon Cat" can also be a big hit."

"Hmph, what's there to be proud of?"

Brother Chen Kai heard that this guy was mocking him for not being able to hook up with Boss Cao. He snorted in his heart and left in disappointment.

But I was thinking, how can I make Boss Cao calm down?
I need to think about it carefully when I get back...

As soon as Cao Yu got into the car, Song Yunhua, who was already waiting in the car, came over and asked, "Boss, how did I perform during the audition?"

"You're not as good as you were in the lounge. You need to work harder."

In fact, during the audition, Song Yunhua's performance was better than expected, but Cao Yu liked her more when she was in the lounge, pure yet coquettish.

"Then I'll behave myself tonight."

In front of outsiders, this girl is very dignified, but when there are no outsiders around, she looks like a vixen.

Seeing the two of them being so close, Zhang Xiaotian was very unhappy and interrupted them: "Boss Cao, where are we going now?"

"back office."

As he was speaking, he suddenly noticed a girl waiting for a bus on the side of the road. It was Li Kaixin.

"Stop."

Cao Yu asked the driver to stop the car and said to the bodyguard, "Take her back."

Li Kaixin came here today just to show her presence in front of the boss and fill out some information.

After finishing my work, I prepared to go back to the company.

But she had just arrived in Yanjing and had no means of transportation, so she could only take a taxi.

But there were too many people here today, and no car came after waiting for a long time. Unexpectedly, a luxury Mercedes-Benz business car stopped next to me.

Just as I was wondering, I saw the boss's bodyguard get out of the car and say, "Ms. Li, the boss has to go back to the company too, so I'll just give you a ride."

"The boss's car?"

Li Kaixin looked at the car in front of him in surprise. When the electric door opened, he saw his boss sitting inside.

just
Song Yunhua, who came to the mainland with me, was actually leaning on the boss's arms?
She had actually already taken action? Faster than me?

When did this happen? She hid it so well, no wonder she got the female lead role in "The Richest Man in Xihong City".

There is a saying that goes, "The brave will die of overeating, while the timid will die of starvation." I am still too timid.

Li Kaixin regretted his cowardice, but after getting into the car, he was immediately shocked by the luxurious decoration inside.

This is a luxury business car. It not only has first-class seats on an airplane, but also has a full range of facilities. The main space is extra large, so there is no problem sleeping.

This car alone looks like it's worth a lot of money.

If she knew that this was a mobile office specially customized by Mercedes-Benz for Boss Cao, she would probably be even more shocked.

"Boss, Senior Yun Hua."

Although Li Kaixin had been in the entertainment industry for a while, she was still a little restrained when getting into her boss's luxury car.

The main thing is that Song Yunhua was in the boss's arms and had no intention of getting up at all.

"There are so many people here today, it should be hard to get a taxi. I just happened to be going back to the company, so I'll give you a ride."

Cao Yu nodded and asked the other party to sit down.

"thank you boss."

Li Kaixin felt that the wealthy boss in front of her was a nice person and not arrogant.

However, I didn’t realize when Song Yunhua started getting together with the boss.

Cao Yu ignored the girl and arranged for Zhang Xiaotian: "By the way, when the money from the TV stations arrives, take out 200 million to subsidize the farmers of Feiyu Fresh Supermarket, and take out another 100 million and transfer it to Han Hong Charity to help poor and sick children from poor families."

Song Yunhua and Li Kaixin were stunned when they heard this.

Is the boss such a nice person? He immediately took so much money to help farmers and do charity?
That’s several hundred million.

Zhang Xiaotian was no longer surprised. In the past two years, Boss Cao had done much more good things than these, totaling almost 20 billion.

She wrote down Cao Yu's words. She was afraid that her boss would get close to this woman again, so she asked, "Director Chen asked you out just now. When do you plan to meet him? I can arrange your schedule so that I can."

"No need to make any arrangements. I won't see you for now." Cao Yu guessed that Brother Chen Kai might not want to see this person because of "Legend of the Demon Cat".

Zhang Xiaotian reported: "Then your schedule for tomorrow is to go to the Science Park in the morning, go horseback riding in the afternoon, and participate in the second round of the "Produce 101" ceremony the day after tomorrow."

Soon, Boss Cao returned to the company and asked Song Yunhua and the other person to practice their acting skills. He called Cai Yinong to decide on the two TV drama projects, "Fighting Break Sphere" and "The Hidden Corner".

As for "Snow Swordsman", we can wait until "Fights Break Sphere" is finished filming.

There are many female characters in these two dramas. What if there are not enough roles?
The news that the company was preparing a live-action version of "Fights Break Sphere" quickly spread throughout the company.

Although they have just begun preparations for script adaptation and casting may not begin until summer vacation, the enthusiasm of most of the company's young artists has been aroused.

The novel "Fights Break Sphere" is very famous in the online literature circle, even phenomenal.

This novel is the first novel in the history of Singularity to have over 1.3 million hits, with the highest number reaching million.
With such a readership base, and the fact that it was produced by Feiyu Entertainment, it is expected that whoever plays the role will become a hit.

Moreover, the heroine Xiao Xun'er is a peerless beauty in the book. Whoever can play this character will definitely gain higher status in the circle.

Those women who have relationships with Cao Yu kept whispering in his ear, hoping to be the first girl to play the role of Xiao Xun'er.

But Boss Cao did not give a clear answer except to enjoy it.

During this period, "Legend of Kyushu" has been almost halfway through filming, and "Red Ling" will also be completed at the end of May.

Although Feiyu Entertainment has no movies released on May Day, it has already begun preparations for the summer season.

The casting for the two dramas "Story of Yanxi Palace" and "Youth" is still ongoing. Cao Yu occasionally pays attention to it but does not ask too much.

With Feiyu's investment, the producer was sent by Feiyu Entertainment, and Feng Xiaogang did not dare to let the girls who were auditioning go to his villa.

During this period, Brother Chen Kai also made several appointments with Cao Yu, but he never agreed to meet.

There were no Feiyu Entertainment movies this May Day, and the movie market was not hot. Even for Hollywood movies, the box office did not exceed 300 million.

The audiences are also looking forward to this summer vacation to support their idol, Boss Cao.

As for a film called "A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix", Universal Pictures, in collaboration with other cinema chains, has given it a very good screening schedule.

This little-known art film ended up with a box office of over 100 million, becoming a legend in the film and television industry.

Such results directly beat Guan Xiaotong's "Romance from Heaven" and Xiao Mingge's "The Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons Strike Back" and other movies.

In early June, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" started filming in Xiamen.

China Film Group and Feiyu Film Group have begun preparations for the joint investment and production of the film "The Wandering Earth", and have also begun preparing scripts for two film projects, "Life Events" and "Nobody".

In addition, in the second round of selection for "Produce 101", Li Kaixin and Yang Chaoyue were unsurprisingly shortlisted in the top 101.

Although Zhao Lusi performed poorly in this round, she was included in the final list of 101 people at the instruction of Cao Yu.

He did this because he intended to flatter this girl so that she would learn from her shame and become stronger.

"Boss, let me advance, is he really trying to seduce me?"

But Zhao Lusi, who advanced to the final variety show, became more active.

My boss told me last time that he would check my practice progress, but it has been two months. Why hasn’t he contacted me yet?

If you want to dive, just come earlier. I won’t refuse.

It’s a pity that I heard that the boss went to Hong Kong during this period, and I don’t know what happened next.

When he comes back, I will definitely ask him clearly!
In early July, Boss Cao, who had been in Hong Kong for almost a month, finally returned.

During this period, Yang Mi and Liu Shishi, who were pregnant, both lived in Hong Kong, and Liu Yifei, who gave birth to two children, also lived here.

The relationship between the three women is getting better and better, which makes Boss Cao very pleased.

On the same day that Boss Cao returned, the two movies, "Jade Dynasty" and "The God of Cookery", were released together.

"Jade Dynasty" has a certain readership base, and coupled with Guo Xiaosi's fame, it has attracted a lot of attention.

However, "The Love Master" is a movie produced by Feiyu, so it has attracted more attention.

Cao Yu returned to the company and finished his work. Seeing that there was still more than half an hour before the end of get off work, he planned to go upstairs to see the little koi Yang Chaoyue and take the girl home in the evening.

But as soon as he went upstairs, he was discovered by Zhao Lusi who came out of the bathroom.

"Boss, you're back!"

When Zhao Lusi saw the boss, it was like a black bear seeing honey, her eyes lit up and she ran over.

"Are you being lazy again?"

When Cao Yu saw her coming out of the bathroom, he thought that this girl had a lot of shit and piss and was deliberately being lazy.

"Hey, I've been working really hard lately."

Zhao Lusi, who was indeed lazy, smiled awkwardly and said, "Boss, you said last time that you wanted to check my training situation. I am ready and can accept the inspection at any time."

"Okay, then go to the practice room and dance for me."

"To the practice room?"

Zhao Lusi was a little confused. There were so many people in the practice room. How were you going to check?
Or drive the others away and put me in the practice room
The boss's hobby is very special. Does he have to wear a dance costume? That would be exciting?

When I think about it, it seems like this is possible.

Seeing her hesitation, Cao Yu asked, "Why? Are you embarrassed?"

"A little bit, but if the boss likes it, I am willing to do it."

The two of them were talking on the same channel, so there was no problem for them to hear each other.

When I arrived at the practice room, Xiao Jinli, Li Kaixin and others were there.

Cao Yu took a look at other people's clothes and found that they were all covered in sweat, except Zhao Lusi's clothes, which had no water stains at all.

From this point, it is clear who is working hard and who is lazy.

Li Kaixin was also happy when she saw the boss.

The last time Song Yunhua got the female lead, she was very envious and wanted to find an opportunity to meet the boss, but unfortunately she hasn't had the chance recently.

The boss came to inspect today and insisted on making an appointment in the evening.

Sitting on the chair brought by Yang Chaoyue, Cao Yu said to Zhao Lusi expressionlessly: "Let's start, just dance a random dance, let me see how you practiced."

"Now?"

Zhao Lusi looked confused as she looked at the other people around her.

Why didn't the boss kick the others out? Was it real dancing?
"Aren't you going to wait until the New Year instead of dancing now?"

Cao Yu replied coldly and asked someone to play the song they had been practicing recently and waited for Zhao Lusi to start.

And the others were also waiting to see the fun this girl would cause.

Zhao Lusi had no choice but to bite the bullet and start doing the moves.

The dance was not difficult, it was Qiduo's famous song "Hong Zhaoyuan", but Zhao Lusi danced it terribly.

Not only are the movements unskilled, but many of them are out of shape.

"stop!"

Cao Yu was really speechless about this girl. Isn't it just that her family has some money? Why is she spoiled like this?

It's amazing that you can dance such a simple dance like this.

"Zhao Lusi, is this the result of your training during this period?"

Cao Yu really wanted to teach this girl a lesson.

The other girls watched Zhao Lusi's embarrassment as if they were watching a show, and they were all secretly happy.

Everyone else is working hard, but you are not. You deserve it.

"Boss, I was wrong."

Zhao Lusi shyly came to the boss and lowered her head: "Boss, there are so many people here, I'm a little embarrassed, can I dance for you alone?"

"So what you mean is, when you participate in variety shows, TV series and movies, only I can watch them?"

Cao Yu no longer intended to save her face at this time.

If you don’t work hard yourself, what face do you want?
"Boss, I really know I was wrong. Give me one chance. I want to dance for you alone, okay? I will definitely dance well."

This time, Zhao Lusi's face really turned red after being scolded. She glanced at the others, then looked at Cao Yu with pleading eyes, looking pitiful.

"You guys go and have a rest first."

Seeing her like this, Cao Yu said something to the others.

Yang Chaoyue and others originally wanted to watch the show, but the boss spoke, so they had to leave disappointed.

It's a pity that Zhao Rusi, who loves to be lazy, was scolded.

After everyone left, Cao Yu hummed, "Let's start now."

But Zhao Lusi didn't move. After a while, she suddenly looked up and said, "Boss, if you want to seduce me, just say it directly. Don't embarrass me, okay?"

"???"

This time it was Cao Yu's turn to be confused.

When did I want to seduce you? How come I didn't know it myself?

Seeing that the boss didn't say anything, Zhao Lusi thought she was right and continued, "Boss, you let me enter the finals of "Produce 101". I know you must want to support me. If you like me, I have no objection. Let me dance for you alone tonight. Please check it carefully."

"No need. No matter how you check, it's useless."

Although Zhao Lusi is quite cute, she has fair skin and a pretty face.

But Cao Yu didn't like her because she didn't work hard and acted like a little gangster.

Zhao Lusi never expected that even after she had said so much, the boss would still refuse?

Am I really that bad?

Cao Yu's attitude aroused the girl's unwillingness to admit defeat. She suddenly hugged the handsome man in front of her and said, "Boss, do you dislike my appearance?"
