Chapter 1027 What kind of bicycle do you want?
"Damn, what's going on? The drop today is so big!"

Don’t blame the fact that the words spoken by the king of Huayi are so lifelike as the curses of the shareholders.

Whoever gets the money, gets the heartache.

Besides, he's a big head.

His younger brother Xiao Wang was not much better. He stayed in the office and not only cursed at his mother, but also cursed the ancestors of those who were selling the stocks.

"Brother, should we find someone to fight back?"

The previous plunge was entirely because the stock price after listing far exceeded expectations of its value. It is understandable that everyone was busy cashing out, causing Huayi's stock to plummet.

But now, I don’t understand shit.

It fell 7 points today, 5 points tomorrow, and will hit the limit down the day after tomorrow.

"Damn, how could this be such a coincidence?"

China Film, Light Media, and Bona Film Group had just released plans for the preparation of new films, and their major investors announced a reduction in holdings, followed by a sharp drop in their own stocks.

Even a fool can tell that someone is definitely behind this.

"Contact me immediately." The king did not hesitate at all and decided to maintain the stock price above 20 yuan this time.

He has been very busy in the past two or three months.

First, just after the Spring Festival holiday, it was announced that the "H Plan" would launch ten new films, including big productions such as "Global Love", "Detective Dee: The Prequel" and "Painted Skin 2".

Immediately afterwards, he was planning a new film for Feng Dapao.

In addition, before the end of last year, we acquired 11 producer-centric studios and achieved five small goals.

He also spent money as much as he could.

However, for such a large investment, it is totally insufficient to rely solely on the liquid funds on the company's books.

That's why he discussed with his brother about pledging the Huayi shares they held.

That is why he is very sensitive to the current stock price.

"Okay, I'll contact them right away." Xiao Wang said, and prepared to contact the agency.

"Wait." The king stopped him and said, "Don't rush to agree to their conditions. Wait until the Academy Awards are over for the details."

At the upcoming Academy Awards in April, there is a strong chance that "Detective Dee", a film in which Huayi invested 4 million yuan, will win.

With 13 nominations to its name, it is almost certain to win the biggest prize.

Why not take this out and put it to good use?

How can that be done?

This is the Hong Kong Film Awards!
Who wouldn’t take a look at the domestic entertainment media and the general public who likes entertainment news?

Following closely behind was the first Beijing International Film Festival.

In the capital.

It is also Huayi’s home ground.

"Haha, then I have to contact the United States." Xiao Wang was a little impatient at first, but after listening to Da Wang's analysis, he immediately grasped the key points.

In recent days, HYS has frequently appeared on the pages of major domestic media.

Xiangyang, who is at odds with them, is doing very well.

Xiao Wang wanted to say to his face, "It's just a gimmick, it makes everyone feel the same."

He decided to invite the crew of "John Carter", which he had spent a lot of money on, to join in the Beijing Film Festival.

But if you want to create a gimmick, you have to think carefully.

Among the main creators, Taylor Kitsch and Lynn Collins became famous after starring in "Wolverine" in 2009, but they are far inferior to the other leading actor Willem Dafoe in terms of fan base and popularity.

He has appeared in "Heaven's Gate", "Platoon", "Vampire Diaries" and the "Spider-Man" series.

"Brother, should we stagger the production of John Carter and Spider-Man?"

The new version of "Spider-Man" will also come to the Beijing Film Season for promotion.

At the Guangzhou Marathon a few days ago, Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield, who came specially to support Liu Xixi, said this in an interview.

Damn it, why are you joining in the fun when the movie isn’t even finished yet?
As soon as Xiao Wang finished scolding, Da Wang laughed and said, "After all, the new version has not been released yet. The old version is often familiar to everyone. You can contact them and see if you can invite Tobey Maguire."

"Okay." Xiao Wang's eyes lit up.

Yes, by bringing together the leading actors of the new and old versions to create topics, wouldn’t that make the movie hot?

Worst case scenario, just spend some money.

"Releasing the films at the same time is the most important thing." Da Wang said that spending money to invite Tobey Maguire to China is a small matter.

The most important thing is to secure a global simultaneous premiere.

It is said that China's movie box office market has been on the rise in the past two years and has received much attention from Hollywood film producers.

But there is one thing that has been ignored by everyone.

That is the very eye-catching global simultaneous premiere.

Since "The Fugitive" became the first Hollywood movie to be imported through box office sharing, no Hollywood blockbuster production has considered the inland market as the global premiere area in the past 17 years.

Ok.

Despicable Me doesn’t count.

Minions is a cartoon.

Still French.

"Brother, this is not easy." Xiao Wang looked at Da Wang with difficulty, "You also know that the approval and review are a bit difficult."

"Everything depends on human efforts." The king also knew that there were indeed difficulties.

Firstly, this may leak the film source and lead to early piracy.

Secondly, if the content needs to be modified, deletion is easy to do, but I am afraid that reshoots will be needed for the continuity of the plot.

You know, reshoots are not uncommon in Hollywood, but they are also notoriously expensive.

However, since so much money has been invested in this movie, Da Wang feels that Huayi should have a certain say in its operation.

Money cannot be wasted.

"Okay." Xiao Wang gritted his teeth.

After spending so much money, you still can’t show off in front of the Hollywood crew?
That doesn't make sense.

"Then you fly over, I'll go talk to President Han."

It is not enough to just deal with the Hollywood crew. The key also lies in the degree of cooperation from the domestic side.

In the king's opinion, no one is more suitable than Han Sanping to deal with this matter.

Who asked him to take sides?
Han Sanping, who was involved, was extremely worried.

But no matter how worried I am, I still have to support you. "My lord, if you want to get a world premiere, then I will definitely support you."

He agreed without even stuttering.

Anyway, for the movie that Xiang Yang invested in with his own money, he had to go and argue with the content reviewers.

One more is never too much.

Besides, he couldn't refuse the king's plan.

"John Carter" is also a co-production. Huayi spent so much money, it is not excessive to expect a big response.

"Thank you, Mr. Han, for your care." The king's smile was somewhat flattering.

"You can't say that." Han Sanping waved his hands quickly. He was just talking about the facts, and it had nothing to do with whether to take care of someone or not.

Just like, despite the fact that in the second half of last year, due to external factors, the release dates and screening volumes of Hong Kong and Taiwan films in mainland China were tightened.

Due to personal reasons of a large number of actors, many movies have been removed from domestic video platforms for re-examination.

But he will still attend this year's Academy Awards as a representative of China Film.

When Han Sanping mentioned the Academy Awards, he pointed out that the drama "Detective Dee", which made a name for itself with its nominations, was nominated for Best Actress for Liu Jialing, not Li Bingbing, who had more roles.

The king who had just gotten the upper hand also echoed: "Well, who says it's not true? They are indeed a little bit stubborn."

"So, you must make preparations in advance when you go there." Han Sanping nodded.

Everyone knows the Hong Kong entertainment industry. The unbearable faces of some Hong Kong media reporters are even more obvious.

"Don't worry, Mr. Han. I know exactly what to say and what not to say." The king immediately made his attitude clear.

When the day of the award ceremony came, I just kept my mouth shut.

Anyway, we go there to see who won the award, not to see their looks.

Speaking of the organizing committee of the Academy Awards, as the president of Huayi, he is not afraid of offending them.

It looks awesome, but everyone knows that in 2008, due to lack of money, even the special issue and the usual group photo of the Best Actress and Best Actor nominees were cancelled.

In the end, it was thanks to Huayi's payment of 30 yuan that the final gap was filled.

Therefore, this award is nothing special for him.

Seeing his attitude, Han Sanping began to feel suspicious.

Why, when the Golden Horse Awards were mentioned, the king's attitude made him feel particularly familiar.

Very similar.
"Honey, honey, don't sleep, we're about to land."

"I know. Please prepare me a glass of orange juice. I'm thirsty."

"Okay." Xiangyang on the plane responded readily and then felt his nose itchy.

But since my wife has spoken, I can’t care too much.

Rubbing his nose, he walked quickly towards the cabin lounge.

As soon as he came in, Xiangyang went straight to the refrigerator.

After opening it, he looked at the bottles and jars inside.

What brand does your wife like to drink?

Or freshly squeezed.

Nutritious.

"Boss, do you need me to prepare anything?" Bi Shafer asked curiously.

The cabin crew also looked curious and
Only Xiangyang ignored their expressions and said, "My wife tells me to do this and that. What do you have to envy?"

You will understand when you get married.

"I can do it myself." He took out three fresh oranges from the refrigerator and walked towards the counter where the juicer was placed. Xiang Yang said, "We will stay in Reykjavik for one night today. You can contact the headquarters."

On the first day that Liu Qianqian officially joined the crew of "Prometheus", he decided to accompany her.

After all, the whip is not pleasant.

"By the way, ask the hotel to arrange a professional sports rehabilitation therapist for me."

After running the half marathon, he still feels weak in his calves.

"Okay, Boss." said Bi Shaver.

Coincidentally, she also wanted to have a SPA.

Ok.

Invite Liu Qianqian along as well.

In a few minutes, the freshly squeezed juice was ready, and Liu Qianqian appeared in the cabin in the rest area, yawning.

Seeing the cup that Xiangyang brought over, she pursed her lips. It was effective to lose her temper occasionally.

After taking the orange juice, she gave Xiangyang a sweet smile, then turned around and started chatting with Bi Shafer.

There was no Little John to cause trouble on this trip.

How rare.

"Then you guys chat, I'll go first." Xiangyang, who was left behind, laughed awkwardly.

It would be nice if good friends were here.

This way the firepower won't be concentrated on him.

Originally, John was going to go back to Europe with Xiangyang. He planned to fly to London and then to Los Angeles.

In the end, I now understand why I have to stay in Beijing for two more days.

He has enough energy to play football, so forget about running.

However, even though he stayed for two more days, Xiang Yang did not let him off easily and allowed him to participate in the negotiations as a special delegate.

Negotiations between Liverpool and Beijing Guoan.

"I guessed that it was almost time for you to call me." Little John was not surprised at all to receive the call from his good friend.

"Oh? Tell me about it." Xiangyang smiled.

"I was cc'd in the email." Little John said that he was not Liu Qianqian who was staring at the flight schedule and estimating the time when he first met Xiang Yang.

He knew Xiangyang was about to land, it was completely a work process.

Who asked him to take this private plane before?

The staff carefully sent various information about takeoff and landing, as well as precautions for entering Iceland to his email in advance.

"Oh." Xiang Yang asked, "How is the negotiation with Beijing Guoan going? Has Edwards made any progress?"

“It went better than expected,” Little John said with a smile.

But I felt contempt in my heart.

It’s great that I don’t have to check my emails myself. If I wasn’t trying to save money, I would hire one myself.

"Smoothly? Can they accept the proposal of the sports stadium?" Xiangyang, who had just sat down with his mobile phone, instantly became energetic.

"That's not the case." Little John shook his head.

What he meant by smooth sailing was that the two clubs involved in the negotiations jointly invested in setting up a football school.

Liverpool is responsible for the funding, Beijing Guoan is responsible for providing the corresponding venue according to Liverpool's requirements, and Liverpool will take the dominant position in the football school with a 60% stake. The proposal was fully accepted.

In addition, a proposal was also accepted that Liverpool would fund Beijing Guoan's current youth team to come to Europe for training and exchanges, and players from the youth team would be spotted by overseas clubs and introduced to Liverpool, and that Liverpool would also receive a certain percentage of the transfer fees generated.

As for the new sports stadium that Xiangyang had added to the negotiations, the Beijing Guoan representative did not make a clear statement.

But he said he could report to his own parent company.

"That's the same as not having talked at all." Xiangyang was speechless. How could he say that it was going smoothly?
Thinking of Little John's promise when he left his friend behind, Xiangyang couldn't help but sneer:
"Do you understand football? If you don't, go do what you should do."

"That's because I understand, so I told you it's going well." Little John, who was being shot at face-to-face, didn't feel angry at all.

Xiangyang is sometimes very sharp-tongued.

"Xiang, you have to know that the renovation of any stadium requires a huge investment. Even if you raise 7000 million euros, it is far from enough."

"What a mess." Xiangyang snorted. This was not nonsense.

Don't I know that 7000 million euros is not enough.

"But don't worry. They stated at the meeting that they will give us a clear reply within a week. I also conveyed your attitude, and they also expressed their understanding."

Seeing his friend's tone becoming increasingly serious, Little John quickly reported the results of the negotiation to Xiangyang.

In his opinion, this result actually indicated that the negotiations were going very smoothly.

Because they didn't refuse explicitly.

To describe it in the words of Uncle Xiang.

If this doesn't satisfy you, what else do you want from a bicycle?

"Ugh"

Xiangyang sighed.

As expected, sometimes when you talk to people you can’t say everything, and it becomes more difficult to get things done.

Forget it. If it doesn’t work, I’ll wait until I get to Shanghai.

It seems that it is better to rely on yourself than on anyone else.

"Honey! Make me a cup of coffee."
