Actor: Thank you.

The next day, in the morning.

After leaving the Beijing Film Studio, Zhang Yuanxian went to a restaurant with her to have dinner.

Zhang Yuan said he would treat her, but when she ordered the food, she only picked two cold dishes and a bowl of noodles.

Zhang Yuan wanted to order more dishes, but was stopped by him.

"No, I can't finish it."

"And it's faster to eat this way."

She was mainly in it for the fast.

Save time and move directly to the next topic.

One good thing is that she is anxious, which means she is hungry.

"Hehehe..."

Early in the morning, after both of them woke up, Zhang Yuan heard a burst of silly laughter coming from beside him.

"What do you enjoy?"

"I'm happy to think that I'll be filming with you in the future." Fat Fan stretched out one of his long white legs from the quilt and straddled his waist.

"Are you sure you're happy about filming?"

"I'm glad to see you." Fan Bingbing stretched out his index finger and poked his nose.

To be honest, Fan Bingbing alone can replace those two young models in Hong Kong.

Because they are models mainly, so to put it nicely, they have slim figures, but to put it bluntly, they are a bit skinny.

too skinny.

But Fan Bingbing is different, her skin is white and plump.

The texture is better when hugged.

Just like the same pillow, goose down ones are always more comfortable than rattan ones.

"Do you have time in the next few days?" Fat Fan lifted his long hair, looking as if he was still unsatisfied.

"I need to go home and make arrangements."

"Let's go to Huayi to attend the annual meeting."

"Yes, Mr. Wang and others invited you." Fan Bingbing nodded.

"But you weren't invited." Zhang Yuan replied with a smile.

"I'm different. I just left. If I go to the annual meeting again, I don't know what the female artists who didn't leave will think."

She is quite generous and considerate of others.

"I have to go and show my support anyway."

"Especially since I have to take part in Hua Yi's filming later."

"But you don't get along well with the Wang brothers."

"It's all about the money, not the people. For now, we have a tacit understanding."

"At least before the listing, both parties will appear to be harmonious, which is beneficial to both of us."

"You are smart, and especially patient." Fan Bingbing praised sincerely.

"Isn't it unmanly to swallow your anger?" Zhang Yuan asked back.

"No, sometimes it is wise to take a step back. If you only know how to resist, you will end up destroying yourself. After all, the arm cannot bend the thigh."

Fan Bingbing thinks differently from other little girls.

The ideas are more mature.

This has advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that you know better how to survive in this mixed world.

The downside is that her principles are gradually compromised by the people and things she comes into contact with, as well as her desire for fame and fortune.

When people are in an environment, they will be affected by the environment.

Even if something is wrong, if everyone does it and it becomes the default rule, it will be considered right.

The "Legalist thought" of the island countries such as Germany and Italy became fanatical in this way.

It is indeed difficult to maintain one's own identity in a chaotic environment.

But this is not necessarily a bad thing for Zhang Yuan.

Because of her personality, she can do many things that other actresses cannot do, especially many things that are on the edge of the law.

"The problem is not now, but what are you going to do after Huayi goes public?" Fatty Fan frowned slightly and asked, "Aren't you afraid that the Wang brothers will be completely free."

"Even if you have their shares by then, you may not be able to reap the rewards."

"Just like the "Soldier Assault" back then."

Zhang Yuan looked at her and thought she was well-informed and knew everything.

indeed so.

Everything is fine now. Huayi will not do anything to him in order to go public.

But after the listing, the relationship between him and Huayi became more delicate.

He can no longer be controlled by others, and if he does so, he will become the opponent's competitor.

I own shares in the other party, and the other party also owns shares in my company.

When things are intertwined like this, you are the one who suffers.

Because your power and background are not as strong as the other party, you will suffer a loss even under fair conditions.

So I have to be on guard.

It is easy to ask God but difficult to send Him away.

Then his goal is actually very clear.

How to cash out Huayi’s shares and “clean out” the other party from his own company.

It is easy to say but difficult to do.

How should I deal with such a huge company as Huayi, or Huayi after it goes public? This is a technical job.

Seeing that he was deep in thought, Fan Bingbing reached out and pinched his nose.

"Huh...what are you doing?"

"Have you already had an idea, but you're hiding it from me?"

"No." Zhang Yuan replied calmly.

"Oh, you're just hiding it from me. I can't be bothered with you."

"If I have any latest news or ideas, I will tell you, but you also have to help me and keep up with Huayi's inside information."

"Okay, then you have to help me too." Fan Bingbing turned around and sat on his waist.

“I’ve finished filming that TV series.”

"You have to help me arrange the publicity."

"Rouge Snow, right? I see." Zhang Yuan rubbed his fingers together, "It just so happens that Mango TV owes me a favor recently."

"Promote on Happy Camp or Day Day Up. Pick one."

"I'll help you arrange for Kefan to listen to the show on Modu TV."

"That's pretty much it."

Zhang Yuan invested a lot of money in this film, and the license he used was also his. It sold well, so he made a lot of money.

Fan Bingbing is really amazing. Under the banner of his first TV series after independence, not long after filming began, four satellite TV stations had already reached an agreement to broadcast it together.

The Tang people would cry with envy when seeing these conditions.

The director of the film is Teng Wenji, a well-known flower devil in the industry.

This is the advantage of independence.

Fan Bingbing is one of the investors of this film, so it is safe for her to get along with Director Teng.

Otherwise, with Fan Xiaopang's quality, would Director Tencent let him go?
Fan Bingbing is determined to be independent so that she can have more choices in the face of these powerful forces.

"And I've also found the script for my next TV series. The director is your acquaintance, Ju Jueliang."

"Filming costs money."

"I know you're short of money lately."

"How come the whole world knows about this?" Zhang Yuan smiled bitterly.

It’s true that good things don’t go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

"It's been spread all over. You see, I don't despise you even though you have no money." Fan Bingbing smiled with narrowed eyes.

"I know you don't have much money, so I won't ask you for money to invest."

"I will invest the proceeds from Rouge Snow directly into my new film."

Zhang Yuan: …

Correct.

You took care of me and didn't ask me for money.

But you just cut off my payment!

I won’t meet another Li Gongda, will I?
I just keep taking pictures but never get paid.

Speaking of "The Legend of Nezha", it should have been completed and is ready to be broadcast.

No, I have to go and collect the debt from Li Gongda after the New Year.

Just enough to fill my gap.

"So, you have been so enthusiastic from yesterday to today, just for this?"

"Let me help you find publicity and film your next movie at the same time?"

"Why do you miss me so much?" He said this but his eyes looked away.

"I know, but you have to help me too."

"You have to take care of the prince of the Bamboo Union gang under my command. Give him an important role in the new film."

"Even if it's a request from me, the investor."

You can't just ignore your responsibility just because someone's father is dead. That's not fair.

In fact, he has been helping Chen Chuhe find work.

He also looked for "The Siege of the City in October", but Lao Han said that this film is about the main theme after all, and it would be inappropriate for a second-generation gang member to appear in the film as it would be easy for people to pick on him.

Fan Bingbing agreed.

This guy is busy enough.

In addition to the TV series, two film contracts have been signed, and two films and one TV series are under negotiation.

But what’s really amazing about her is that even with so many film offers, she has performed quite well.

Some plays can even compete for awards.

But Yang Mi basically gave up under the same intensity of work. Otherwise, we can only say that the big and small stars in the Chinese entertainment industry are getting worse with each generation.

Without staying any longer, Zhang Yuan packed up and left Fan Xiaopang's house.

Turn around and go home to rest and prepare.

A group of craftsmen were arranged to move some tableware to the new house and clean it up at the same time.

He plans to hold an annual meeting in the new house later.

He also asked Zhao Decai to find someone to measure the size of the new house so that he could draw the blueprints later.

"Do you still want to renovate?" Fatty Zhao was smoking a cigarette with a frown on his face.

He felt that he had done something wrong and felt a little sorry for Zhang Yuan.

It got him into trouble.

"Of course, don't worry about it."

"If you really feel bad, how about you pay for the renovation?"

"Actually, I don't feel that bad." Fatty Zhao immediately changed his tone.

Zhao Decai thought that it would cost tens of millions to renovate this house, and he was not going to be taken advantage of.

I discussed my ideas with the designer in detail.

The next day.

"I plan to turn this place into a training room, with wooden dummies, cushions, and weapons."

"Here, I plan to knock down all the partition walls and make it into a cinema."

"It can accommodate about 50 people and uses professional cinema equipment."

"This way, after filming, I can check out the results with my friends first."

"I plan to convert this into a sun roof and use it as a greenhouse."

"We'll make this a music room and buy a piano."

"We are planning to build a Nine Dragon Wall here, the kind with flowing water."

"I didn't want it, but the designer said it would bring in money."

In the courtyard, Zhang Yuan took the Liu family's mother and daughter and Boss Chen to visit and stroll around.

I said before that I would ask them to come after I bought the new house, and I invited them today.

Before coming, they hadn't expected the house to be so grand.

I knew Zhang Yuan was rich and that his new house would be bigger, but I didn't expect it to be this big.

This is too generous.

Liu Xiaoli has seen the world, and now after a tour, she feels it is pretty good.

I watched him walk towards me step by step, but I still felt like I didn't recognize him in the blink of an eye.

"You have a great place here. It will be very beautiful after you take care of the flowers and plants."

Aunt Liu carried these artistic ladies like a lady, praising them as she walked.

"Your place is great, I'll come play when you're done."

"I will definitely invite you again. Today I just want to take a look in advance."

"By the way, I would like to ask for your suggestions on decoration."

"You have seen the world, so please tell me if you have any good ideas." Zhang Yuan invited several people to sit down in the living room.

"Your place is already very good." Boss Chen looked around, and even he was a little envious.

"Do you plan to use it as a clubhouse or for your own use?"

“It has the function of entertaining guests, but the west wing will be used by the owner.”

"Good."

"I know quite a few suppliers of furniture, lighting, and home appliances. I can introduce them to you."

Boss Chen used to be in the local real estate business and had these resources.

"I'll find you if I need anything."

"Don't you plan to keep cats and dogs here?" Xixi asked with her eyes blinking.

Liu Xiaoli started her own stray cat rescue and brought more than 20 cats and five or six dogs to her home.

So their house is usually very lively, and Xixi has also developed a habit of getting along with animals.

"We haven't planned to do so here, but Brother Qian and I are planning to rent a piece of land in Daxing and build a small zoo."

"There will be cats and dogs, and there will be horses."

"Really!" Xiao Longnu became excited when she heard this.

She loves the smell of horse manure the most, saying it is the smell of nature.

"We're still planning it. I'll invite you guys to come and play when we're done."

Seeing that he was extremely wealthy and in good spirits, Liu Xiaoli thought that he had made it big.

He looked at his daughter again.

Are you excited because of the animals, or are you excited because of him?
"You can ride a horse when the time comes."

"Of course, I can ride a horse."

This is not nonsense. Ever since she learned to ride a horse on the set of "The Return of the Condor Heroes", she has had nowhere to show off her skills.

However, what Brother Qian wants to raise should be a pony.

Even if Bingbing and Liu Xixi, who don’t usually diet to lose weight, can they ride?
He put his doubts aside and turned to look at Boss Chen.

"Let's put the fun aside, Mr. Chen, I need your help with something."

"what's up?"

"Funding." Zhang Yuan always asked him about this: "We also need to transfer to overseas."

"North America?"

"No, this time it's Europe." Zhang Yuan replied mysteriously.

"What are you going to do now?" Liu Qianqian narrowed her eyes and looked at him.

"It's fun, you're sure to like it." Zhang Yuan replied with a smile.

Liu Xiaoli narrowed her eyes like her daughter.

You are going too far now. You don't even hide anything in front of me, right?

"How do you plan to raise funds?" Boss Chen, like Fan Bingbing, had heard about his financial problems.

So at first we thought he was looking for financing to pay off his debts.

But it doesn't sound like that now.

"I have 5% of Huayi shares. Can you help me cash it out and convert it into pounds?"

"What?" Boss Chen was shocked when he heard his words.

He knew that Zhang Yuan owned Huayi shares and often talked about it, saying that Zhang Yuan had a good eye for investment and could make hundreds of millions when the shares went public.

But now he wants to exchange shares for money?

And that’s before it goes on the market.

“It can be, it can’t be traded, but it can be used as debt and mortgage.”

"But Huayi hasn't gone public yet. If you mortgage these shares now, the loss will be huge."

"And the interest rate for share pledge is also very high, up to 10 basis points."

"I know." Zhang Yuan was much calmer than the other party.

"The loss you mentioned is that I no longer want these shares, and they were taken away by banks or institutions as collateral."

“That would indeed result in huge losses.”

"As long as I redeem it at maturity, the only thing I lose is the interest."

"That's true, but the principal you can cash out will also be very different. The difference between before and after listing will be at least several times."

"If you are not in a hurry, I suggest you wait a year or two to see how Huayi performs on the market."

Even Boss Chen was worried about him.

Huayi is now a widely favored stock that is about to go public.

Once the title of the first domestic entertainment stock is secured, subsequent financing will be very convenient, allowing Huayi to be far ahead of its peers.

So, for the same 5% stake, Huayi’s valuation is only around 30 billion.

This is the situation after a round of expansion following capital increase and stock expansion.

Once it goes public, the value of the shares may increase to 80 billion or even 100 billion.

At that time, 5% of the shares were worth several times what they are now.

The difference can be several times in just a few months or a year, which is not cost-effective in Boss Chen's opinion.

But Zhang Yuan insisted and Boss Chen couldn't persuade him.

Of course he knew it wasn't worth it.

Feng Xiaogang only held about 1.5% of the shares, and later cashed out for more than million yuan.

The value of his 5% stake after Huayi goes public will be at least 6 to 7 million.

But for him, the cost of time is the highest.

Another point is that he demanded that the pledge of shares must be kept confidential, especially not to be known to Huayi.

Boss Chen can always find the gray area.

This is also one of the insurances he designed.

When facing a huge monster, fighting it in close combat and risking your life is just the behavior of a reckless man.

Complicating things is actually to your advantage.

At least now I can still make a lot of money, which allows me to have enough money to do other things.

It's better than being completely led by the nose by others.

However, mortgaging the shares to the bank is a bad idea.

There will be other better strategies.

It all depends on how you perform in the coming year.

After drinking for a while, Zhang Yuan raised his wrist to check the time.

"Xixi, it's almost time, we should get ready to leave."

"Hey."

They said goodbye to Liu Xiaoli and Boss Chen at the door.

Bringing the suits and dresses to change into, I headed to the Hilton Hotel to attend the highlight before Huayi went public, the All-Star Annual Meeting... (End of this chapter)
