"It seems that Xiao Xiang really has a special liking for ancient silk."

"That's okay." Xiang Yang pursed his lips.

It’s not that he is in love with antique silk, but the long and glorious cultural history always makes people taste it from an appreciation point of view, and they will unconsciously be attracted by its exquisite technology, exquisite craftsmanship and elegant works.

Just like tapestry, which is known as a treasure of silk art, with the shuttle of embroidery needles in every square inch, people will be amazed by its unique charm.

The graphics have clear light and shade, appropriate shades and levels, and the natural integration of changes. The three-dimensional effect at the same time makes a piece of fabric glow with a rich artistic atmosphere. It is difficult not to be moved by it.

"If Xiao Xiang is interested, we can take time to chat more."

Seeing Xiang Yang's unabashed expression, Deng Wendi said with a smile.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xiang Yang’s preferences are deeply patriotic.

"Let me finish the things in front of me first, haha."

Xiang Yang would not refuse the olive branch extended by Wendi Deng like a fool, but he also expressed his attitude that he did not have the extra energy to be distracted by this movie now.

To put it bluntly, this movie is not attractive enough for him who is busy.

Time flies very quickly, and it’s night in the blink of an eye.

After returning home, Xiangyang got into his workroom after feeding rice balls, Laifu and Dongdong.

As for the cooperation between Han Sanping and Deng Wendi, Xiang Yang didn't care much. Since Liu Qianqian would not star in it and Hermès was not interested in investing in a film by Cheng Long, he himself seemed to have little interest.

The funds needed by Han Sanping are not that large.

Huaying itself also has the money and budget, so it is not short of these millions of dollars.

In Xiangyang's view, the reason why Han Sanping was so enthusiastic was simply to promote communication with each other while buying a layer of insurance.Now that he has found a more suitable person through his effortless matchmaking, it is enough.

As for if this movie makes more money, he feels that he has nothing to lose.

In his opinion, after he no longer has to worry about money, connections are more important than the numbers on his account.

Because this can save yourself a lot of effort.

He cannot learn from Karl Lagerfeld, who devotes 16 hours a day to his career, either taking photos, drawing design sketches on private jets, or worrying about the content of his self-published books.

That's not the life he wants at all.

Wouldn't it be nice to slowly realize your wish while lying down in the gentle countryside?
While sewing the feathers, Xiang Yang had a smile on his face.

When Little John got off the plane, he also had a smile on his face.

The person sent by 20th Century Fox to receive him was Jim Gianopoulos's assistant, which made him feel honored.

If you ask who Jim Gianopulos is, he will soon become the unparalleled CEO of Hollywood with the release of a movie, and that movie is "", directed by James Cameron, which set a new box office record. Avatar".

Later blockbuster films such as 20th Century Fox's "Deadpool", the X-Men series, and "The Grand Budapest Hotel" were all shot and released during his tenure.

With his achievements at 20th Century Fox and good relationships with directors such as James Cameron and Paul Feig, after switching jobs to Paramount, the autonomy he mastered made any Hollywood CEO very proud. envious.

He can directly decide on the following film projects with an investment of US$1 million.

In addition to meeting Jim Gianopulos, the purpose of Little John's trip naturally also includes Columbia Pictures, Warner Pictures, Paramount, Disney, etc.

"My little John's time is coming."

Slightly proud, he visited 20th Century Fox's headquarters in Hollywood that day, and then attended a dinner with Jim Gianopulos's assistant that night.

There were not many celebrities at this banquet, and the attendees were basically producers and executives from major production companies.

Without a female companion, he drank a few glasses of champagne and quickly met Wang Zhonglei through a recommendation among the guests. He was wearing a suit and leather shoes, holding champagne in his hand and welcoming everyone with a smile.

When the two met for the first time, they were stunned at first.

"Are you from the Huayi Film Company in China?"

After learning that the other party was from Huayi, Little John couldn't help but drop his smile.

He had heard a lot about Xiang Yang and Liu Qianqian's disagreement with this Chinese company.

"Hello, Mr. Jean, this is my business card."

Wang Zhonglei had a smile on his face. After coming to the United States, what he heard most was about Hermès officially establishing a film and television investment company.In the past two days, this matter has spread throughout the circle, with some optimistic and some negative.

One thing is that a film and television investment company established by a luxury goods giant still has great influence.

This is something Huayi does not have in Europe and the United States.

Therefore, without knowing the relationship between the young man in front of him and Xiang Yang, and not knowing whether the other party was a friend or an enemy, Wang Zhonglei noticed the perfunctory expression in the other party's expression, but he still said with a smile:
"I hope we have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."

"Oh, right," Little John took the business card, glanced at it without much interest, and said, "I don't know if we have anything worth cooperating with."

Hearing this, Wang Zhonglei frowned.

According to Huayi's plan for next year, Huayi will invest in and release more than ten movies throughout 2010. In addition to fully launching large-scale movie projects such as "Big Earthquake" and "Detective Dee: The Empire of Heaven", it will also continue to work with The Emperor has reached cooperation to promote film projects such as "The Informer" and "New Shaolin Temple".

It’s a year that everyone is looking forward to.

When he came to Hollywood this time, in addition to promoting relationships with film producers here, the most important thing was to seek cooperation.Different from China Film's co-production strategy, Huayi is planning to purchase the Hollywood copyright for a remake.

Therefore, during the business negotiation, he felt that Little John's words were a bit underestimating Huayi.

It seems that this foreigner has a close relationship with Xiang Yang.

Squeeze out a smile to give Little John, and Wang Zhonglei will not ask for trouble by talking to him too much.

But when he left, the arrogant little John stopped working.

Thinking of the friendly exchanges he had with Han Sanping, who was also from China, before he came, Little John felt unhappy and despised Wang Zhonglei in his heart, then gritted his teeth. "No wonder Xiang doesn't like this film company."

Not long after, after the banquet, Little John returned to the hotel and started making phone calls.

It was originally because of Xiang Yang's relationship that he got into this position.

Originally, I was often treated as a transparent person at Hermès headquarters.

Originally
Yes, they originally had a grudge against Xiang and Liu.

Xiang Yang, who received a call from Little John from Hollywood the next morning, was speechless when he heard Little John's call.

Little John asked: "Do you think I am making trouble out of nothing?"

"To be honest, it's a bit." After yawning, Xiang Yang nodded.

"Then I've been humiliated, and you don't care?"

After hearing Xiang Yang's words, Little John asked reluctantly after finding out why Wang Zhonglei came to Hollywood.

"This is not humiliating, right? What are you going to do?"

While talking, Xiangyang put the coffee pot away and said while making coffee: "Huayi is very powerful in our country, and people in Hollywood are also very realistic. It's not like you don't know how much capital the company just established doesn't have."

"Uh" Little John scratched his hair.

Of course he knows that the framework of Hermès Film and Television Investment Company has not yet been established. It is just a decoration and there is not much that can be done.

"I think Little John, you'd better think it over." Seeing that his friend didn't speak, Xiang Yang paused and continued: "To be honest, man, if you do many things, others will accuse you of being of too low a standard.

You represent Hermès, this is taught in the public relations training class."

"I know what the public relations training course is about." Little John, who didn't wait for Xiangyang to finish, interrupted his friend directly and explained: "Xiang, you have to understand that this is business behavior and what business wars are about. ?”

"What is it?"

"Better to be a king in hell than a slave in heaven!" Little John directly threw a famous quote from the epic poem "Paradise Lost" written by the British politician and scholar John Milton to Xiangyang.

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Of course I need your full support in the company."

Little John rolled his eyes and said speechlessly.

"I will definitely support you," Xiang Yang said with a smile, "but I think your behavior is a bit petty, to be honest."

"That's because you are not in my position." Little John also gave his answer directly, "To a certain extent, I am helping you vent your anger, okay? If you say this, I will feel More sad.”

"Okay, okay, I understand."

Xiang Yang frowned and comforted the other party for a few words.

Although he didn't know what happened specifically, Xiangyang knew that if it weren't for the bad relationship between himself and Hua Yi, Little John wouldn't scorn others at the banquet.

He did this just to vent his anger, but he never thought that others would not take him seriously.

Do you have anything to do with Huayi?
It doesn't matter at all.

Furthermore, my relationship with Huayi's celebrities is not good, so why should I say good things about this company in front of my friends.

He can ensure that he does not sit on his butt crookedly when it comes to big issues.

As for such matters of business and profit, Xiangyang pursed his lips and said, "You'd better tell me before you do anything. After all, if you mess up, you still need me to wipe your ass."

"No, I just wanted to raise the price for them."

A smile appeared on Little John's lips, "I have already asked someone about it. The purpose of his coming to the banquet yesterday was to get to know the producers of Disney.

Have you heard of 'High School Musical'? "

"High School Musical?"

Xiang Yang frowned. Isn't this "High School Musical"? Even if he hadn't seen it in his previous life, he couldn't have heard of it in this life.

Because this film can be regarded as a musical, when "Midnight in Paris" was created, Damien, a guy who is addicted to musicals, gave him a lot of knowledge about musicals.

"What do you think?" Little John asked.

"."

When Xiang Yang was asked this question, he was a little confused. He remembered that Little John was a fan of Paris Saint-Germain, not a fan of the 'High Price United'.

And
How can I raise this price? I'm not stupid.
"Xiang, do you remember the name of the movie that Liu's friend, the girl named Su, is going to make? And the one who came to our office before. By the way, maybe you didn't notice, this movie also has Huaying investment."

"And Huaying?!"

Xiang Yang took a breath of surprise. He really didn't expect that Little John would be so sinister after having a personal grudge.

"Okay, I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to make a call."

"then you."

"Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you." After making a promise, Little John hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Xiang Yang came outside the house with his coffee cup and shook his head helplessly.

After taking a sip of coffee and looking at the yellowing morning sun getting brighter and brighter, he was stunned. He suddenly felt that Little John was right in doing this.

When it comes to business competition, isn't it just like what John Milton said - "It would be better to be a king in hell than a slave in heaven!"

Why do you keep thinking about being a 'bad good person' when you have nothing to do?

Thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket
