After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 611: Boiled Sugar Man in Warm Water

Li Mingyang doesn't care whether the Bouquet Hotel can make money or not, he doesn't make money from the hotel...

My mother is negotiating cooperation with a foreign hotel group. She is using the other party's qualifications and using their shell to build a five-star hotel. This is the fastest way.

Compared with some hotel chains that can recoup their investment in 2 to 5 years, the static payback period of a five-star hotel is generally between 7 and 20 years.

Even the five-star hotels on the Bund in Shanghai cannot escape the fate of losing tens of millions a year.

It costs money to build a five-star hotel, and it also costs money to maintain a five-star hotel.

Linen procurement, catering costs, human resource training, publicity and promotion, as well as the swimming pool, banquet hall, spa, gym, etc. that support the appearance of a five-star hotel all require money.

If we do the accounting for domestic five-star hotels, nine out of ten are losing money.

Why are there so many bosses flocking to five-star hotels that have been losing money year after year?
There is a lot of profound knowledge involved here.

Five-star hotels are generally the face of a city and serve as a benchmark.

It can also boost land prices.

In order to attract investment and provide hospitality, some regions will encourage investors to build five-star hotels and will also introduce different subsidy policies, such as tax rebates, land refunds, and cash rewards. In some places, a reward of 500 million will be given for building a five-star hotel and a reward of 400 million will be given for building a four-star hotel.

Of course, the most important reason is that a five-star hotel is a ticket to the upper class.

The cheapest entry ticket.

Losing tens of millions is no big deal, but the rewards of breaking into the upper class are unimaginable!

Brother Dong can climb up from the bottom to the top.

It depends on getting a wife, which seems free but is actually the most expensive!
The marriage is a high-society collusion.

It’s just like in ancient times when wealthy businessmen would send people to the place where the results were announced to catch a rich son-in-law.

Li Mingyang couldn't understand what was going on in Jing Tian's family. With his achievements, he would have been the top scholar in the imperial examination in ancient times!
Uh...that’s not right. The top scholar is an official.

And his capital road is getting further and further away...

Of course, in many regions, developing a country through industry is not just empty talk, and developing a country through science and technology is the policy.

Huawei surfaced during this period.

However, Huawei is sometimes quite weird.

"Far ahead" has been ridiculed by netizens as a derogatory term.

Mr. Ren directly stopped using the slogan "far ahead" and banned it from being mentioned again.

The importance of the founder to a large group is like a pillar that supports the sky. When the big ship is difficult to turn around, only the founder can make drastic changes with limited force.

Huawei was recruiting illegal businesses, so Ren Zhengfei directly closed the building, from top to bottom, and opened all the functions that could be opened overnight, striking hard and scraping the bone to cure the poison.

Others can do this kind of thing... but they can never do it so quickly, so cruelly, or so accurately!
It takes half a month to study the meeting...

Li Mingyang closed the financial report, turned his wrist to check the time, and saw that half an hour had passed. He left the Finance Department and went to his godmother's office.

I don’t know what the godmother said, but Shishi was laughing so hard that she kept covering her mouth with her hands.

"What are you talking about? You're laughing so happily." Li Mingyang asked.

"Nothing, nothing!" Liu Shishi took a deep breath and waved her hands repeatedly, but when she saw Li Mingyang's face, she couldn't help laughing again.

Li Mingyang was confused by the laughter and looked at Aunt Xia.

Xia Yuhe shrugged and said innocently, "Shishi's sense of humor is a little low... I don't know what she is laughing at."

Li Mingyang was puzzled. Shishi had a low laugh threshold, but she had never laughed like this!
I asked her several times out of curiosity. Every time, Liu Shishi tried very hard to control herself, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she burst into laughter, covered her face with her hands, and rolled around on the sofa.

Li Mingyang and Xia Yuhe were stunned.

After a long while, Shishi finally calmed down.

"What are you laughing at? Make me happy too." Li Mingyang put his arm around Shishi's waist and squeezed it.

"Don't touch me..." Liu Shishi pushed Li Mingyang away uncomfortably, but couldn't help laughing.

Seeing this, Xia Yuhe pulled Li Mingyang aside and said, "Yangyang, is there something wrong with this Shishi..."

"She's not usually like this. What on earth did you say?"

"I really didn't say anything..." Xia Yuhe thought for a moment and said, "I told her that you were in high school and you were either reading novels or comics in class, and she suddenly laughed... After you came, she laughed even harder."

Li Mingyang was even more puzzled. What was so funny about this?

"Godmother, what do you think of Shishi?"

"What can I say to you..." Xia Yuhe looked at Shishi rolling on the sofa with a smile, and felt that this girl was a little bit off-head...

"Just think that she took the wrong medicine and ignore this silly-looking Shishi."

"I have no problem with who you find... Just be happy."

Li Mingyang nodded. It was easier to deal with his godmother. His mother was the one who gave orders and treated Liu Yifei as her own daughter. His son was secondary.

Someone else's daughter kisses...

Near noon, Li Mingyang and his godmother, Shishi, came to the restaurant on the second floor to have lunch.

Maybe it was because she laughed too much, Shishi laughed so hard that her stomach ached and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

"It's all your fault." Shishi hit Li Mingyang lightly.

"You're laughing so hard, what does it have to do with me?"

"It's all your fault... Auntie said you were shy and introverted when you were a kid, you didn't like to talk, and you were always bullied by girls... I can't take it anymore. When I think of that bullied girl and look at you now, I want to laugh. How can you be shy and introverted?"

Shishi cried out, her brows furrowed, her stomach ached from laughing so hard, and she held her stomach in discomfort.

Li Mingyang put his hand under the sweater, and his hot big hands were like a hot pack, pressing against the slippery and cold belly.

"That's not right, but my godmother said that you laughed when you heard that I like to read novels and comics!"

"I can't be slow to react!"

Li Mingyang looked up at his godmother who was ordering food and asked, "Godmother, did you tell Shishi that I was shy and introverted when I was a child and was bullied by girls..."

"Yes! Yangyang was too shy when he was young. He didn't even have a girlfriend in high school. He would blush when he saw a girl."

Shishi: “Haha!”

Li Mingyang: “…”

For Li Mingyang, high school is too far away, so far away that it is blurred. However, he has never been shy and introverted. He just doesn't want to talk and lives in his own world.

Use words, comics, movies and TV dramas to numb yourself.

The film has a very strong penetrating power. It breaks down dimensional walls, guides thinking, and has a huge impact on the audience.

As for seeing girls blushing, it was probably because his godmother projected Zhou Liang's situation onto him.

Girls blushing when they see themselves...

After all the dishes were served and a few glasses of wine were drunk, Xia Yuhe suddenly became gossipy and asked Liu Shishi if she didn't plan to go back to Tangren.

Xia Yuhe also read Cai Yinong's short composition, and her first reaction was that Li Mingyang abducted Liu Shishi.

"I don't know either... Would it be best if there was a solution that would satisfy both parties?" Liu Shishi said, and looked at Li Mingyang.

"I think Sugar Man is okay. The drama is quite flattering and it's quite my taste," said Xia Yuhe.

"Tangren's production is considered first-class in China, but times have changed, capital is dominant and competition is vicious," said Li Mingyang.

"The entertainment industry is very profitable. Can Shishi make 100 million a year now? 100 million in hand." Xia Yuhe asked curiously.

"That's about right..." Liu Shishi said unconfidently.

Liu's mother only knew that her daughter was good at making money, had a high salary for filming, and was very famous.

But she couldn't even think about making 100 million yuan a year. When others told her about it, she thought it was bragging. After all, being a celebrity is heavily taxed.

"One hundred million is not a small amount. Money will depreciate if you put it in the bank. Do you usually make any investments?" Xia Yuhe asked.

"I...I'm buying a house."

"This investment cannot be put into one basket. There must be short-term, medium-term, and long-term..." Xia Yuhe has a lot to say when talking about investment and financial management.

In addition to auditing, she also works as an investment consultant at PwC.

Li Mingyang didn't care at first, but when his godmother recommended Hengtai's project to Shishi, Li Mingyang stopped immediately and said, "Godmother, you have retired early, so don't worry about it. Your investment is risky and could go bankrupt at any time!"

"Pah! What liquidation? That's a project backed by the state."

"Shishi, don't listen to her. Just buy a house. When it comes to investment, you only care about the interest, while others only care about your principal. They are just trying to take advantage of you!"

"I think Auntie's investment philosophy is much more reliable than yours..." said Liu Shishi.

Li Mingyang's investments are all about spending huge amounts of money in order to get listed.

If they can’t go public, they will lose a lot of money and go bankrupt…

Li Mingyang rolled his eyes and said, "How can my third eye compare to yours?"

"Yangyang knows more than me. You should listen to Yangyang. Investing is risky, and if you have a bad mentality, you will easily become depressed..."

Seeing that Li Mingyang didn't like to hear her talk about investment, Xia Yuhe stopped talking and instead started to ask whether Shishi had filmed any new drama recently.

When this was mentioned, Shishi immediately perked up, much more excited than when she heard about the investment. She said in a wronged tone that she had not filmed any new dramas recently, had no announcements, and had been resting.

When Xia Yuhe heard this, she immediately spoke up for Liu Shishi, "Mingyang, don't delay it for too long. It's been more than a month already. The golden age of actresses is only a few years. I've seen actresses who were very popular before, but now they are either mothers or supporting roles, or they are no longer seen at all."

"Yeah." Liu Shishi nodded, her beautiful eyes moving as she looked at Li Mingyang pitifully.

Jing Tian, ​​Yang Mi and Liu Yifei’s July and Ansheng will start filming next week.

Her new play has not been finalized yet...

It’s not good to be too idle. When fans asked her about her schedule, she didn’t know how to answer.

She has no motivation to do anything now and just wants to make a movie, preferably with her husband.

"Already preparing."

"Don't prepare. Cai Yinong lives here. I'll call her over and you two can talk. Let's make it quick and decisive." Xia Yuhe shrugged. "She has lived here for ten days. I think she was waiting for you on purpose."

"Let her wait." Xia Yuhe shook her head. "She is an old fox. She is very shrewd. You can't outlast her. Tangren is not a shell company, but a very responsible content production company. PwC has an internal evaluation. Among so many film and television companies in the mainland, Tangren is rated A+. It is the most powerful film and television company in the mainland. A lot of investors are eyeing it."

Li Mingyang asked curiously, "What is the evaluation of Huashu Entertainment?"

"Huahua Entertainment is just a shell company, where do the good reviews come from?" Xia Yuhe said with a smile.

"..."

"As the No. 1 TV drama stock, Huace is only an A-level company. But I heard that Huace and Croton have reached an agreement on a merger, so it should be able to reach the S-level."

"Godmother, you really understand..."

"I just heard it from others. You have to understand that people at the bottom fight to the death. The higher you go, the more people are colluding and working together for mutual benefit. They block the door together." Xia Yuhe said what she had always wanted to say, and seeing that Li Mingyang was indifferent, she shrugged helplessly.

The box suddenly became quiet. Liu Shishi glanced at Aunt Xia and then at Li Mingyang.

I don’t know what to say, so I just lowered my head and drank…

This wine is so bitter...

……

After Li Mingyang returned to China.

The industry's attention is all on his various negative news, including kidnapping the number one sugar girl, the fake mother-son conspiracy, the FBTV credibility crisis, beating up Feng Kuazi at the exchange meeting, the head-on confrontation with Huayi at the symposium, and colluding with chaebols in Korea to abuse his power.

His stance is problematic, but he actually became a shareholder of the leading Korean entertainment company.

The outside world is expecting that the two major listed film companies in mainland China, Guangguang and Huayi, will fight to the death.

The second battle between the new box office king Li Mingyang and the old box office king Feng Kuazi!
As a result, the stocks of both companies began to rise.

Few people know that Li Mingyang has been hammering sugar figures, but his method is gentle and silent, which is totally unlike his radical style.

It took Cai Yinong a long time to realize that Li Mingyang was cheating on her!
The Golden Eagle Festival, which was originally scheduled to open on the 7th of this month, has been postponed.

The reason is that the Golden Eagle Goddess voting was too quiet...

This year's Golden Eagle Goddess was the first to be voted for through SMS voting, which had been preheated for a long time. Mango TV originally wanted to make a fortune by relying on traffic.

What left Mango TV speechless was that not long after the second round of voting began, a group of popular young actresses suddenly lost interest in the coveted title of Golden Eagle Goddess.

They all gave the cold shoulder, with the hot favorites Yang Mi, Tong Liya, Liu Shishi, and Tang Yan going on strike collectively.

Without the support of these popular young actresses, advertisers and sponsors went straight to Mango TV’s headquarters, some demanding a refund and some demanding a discount.

The popularity is too low, and advertisers and sponsors feel they have suffered a great loss.

Mango TV used to ignore the troubles caused by its sponsors.

But this time it was so cold that even we couldn’t bear to watch it.

In addition, online public opinion is also making up stories that the Golden Eagle Goddess award has no gold content, is just a water award, and whoever wins it will be a water queen.

Several popular female stars also tacitly agreed not to compete. Yang Mi was the most excessive, she even deleted the Weibo post promoting the Golden Eagle Awards.

Since 2005, the Golden Eagle Awards has been held every two years instead of once a year, and actors from Hong Kong and Macao are also allowed to participate.

The Golden Eagle Awards, the most profitable event in the past two years, was about to be lost. Mango TV naturally could not tolerate this and immediately asked the hosts of Kuaiben to take the lead in communicating with several popular female stars.

After a round of communication, everyone was polite to each other and no one wanted it.

The friendly attitude made Teacher He speechless and frightened.

Mango TV is the dominant TV station, second only to CCTV, and the No. 1 satellite TV station. Normally, the female stars would not dare to offend them. This sudden incident made Mango TV very confused and it did not react for a while.

It was not until Li Mingyang went to Zhangjiajie to participate in Sino-Korean cultural exchanges that Mango began to suspect Li Mingyang.

Li Mingyang's favor is very important to these young actresses. The Golden Eagle Goddess is really incomparable...

Soon, Mango figured out why Li Mingyang took action against the Golden Eagle Awards.

Cai Yinong’s short essay fired the first shot against Li Mingyang!
Mango admires Cai Yinong's courage, but he is not ambiguous in his actions. He asks Cai Yinong to reconcile with Li Mingyang as soon as possible, so that the competition for the Golden Eagle Goddess will become more intense and the heat will be stirred up.

As Li Mingyang beat up Feng Kuzi at the exchange meeting, Mango finally realized that Li Mingyang is really a venomous snake!
His target is not only Tangren, but also Huayi. Mango TV and these two are very good allies + sponsors!

If it were any other time, Mango would not indulge him. He would let him go wherever he wanted and would not bother to pay attention to Li Mingyang.

But the Golden Eagle Awards is related to face, reputation, revenue, value, popularity, status...

Mango TV is a TV station with an independent status. There is no point in fighting with Li Mingyang. Making money is the first priority.

Mango immediately sent someone to talk to Li Mingyang.

After much discussion, there was no result. Li Mingyang firmly stated that he was innocent and had done nothing.

They are blaming others and saying that Mango is making false accusations! We need to send a lawyer's letter!

Since Li Mingyang couldn't be dealt with, Cai Yinong had to find a solution. After all, Cai Yinong was the cause of this matter.

However, Cai Yinong felt aggrieved, saying that Sugar Girl No. 1 had been abducted and she had no one to turn to for justice.

Liu Shishi did not compete for the Golden Eagle Goddess because of Li Mingyang's instigation. It had nothing to do with her. She wanted to win the Golden Eagle Goddess for Liu Shishi.

Startling by Each Step, The Xuan-Yuan Sword: Scar of Sky, and The Desert Ballad were all sold to Mango TV.

He even turned around and blamed Mango for being useless. When something went wrong, he just tried to pass the buck. He knew it was Li Mingyang who was the bad guy, but he didn't dare to say a word.

He just came to bully such a poor person like her.

Cai Yinong stood on the balcony, looking through the window at the Three-Body Film and Television City in the distance where construction was in full swing.

Tangren has also been involved in many film and television city projects, but most of them are either big-ticket projects or small-scale ones that just get the job done.

The Three-Body Film and Television City is not empty talk.

The infrastructure construction is very fast. The first phase of the 300-acre Three-Body Filming Base will be completed next year...

A film and television city like this that is being vigorously developed will definitely make money.

Wang Changtian actually sold his shares to Wanda.

Who is Wang Changtian? Cai Yinong is a close friend.

He was a sinister and vicious person who forced Zhang Zhao away and wrestled with Hua Yi.

Li Mingyang's brilliance obscured Wang Changtian's true face.

The two of them are in cahoots, they understand content and marketing, and they can play with capital...

Cai Yinong was very envious. She also wanted to participate, but she was afraid that the sugar man she built would be swallowed.

She urgently stopped Tangren from going public because the capital was too terrifying, far beyond her imagination.

Internet capital is completely different from previous capital, it is too rich...

All aspects of the film and television industry are huge.

Cai Yinong didn't believe those people's lies about not interfering.

How can you not interfere when you invest so much money? Are you crazy?
"If you don't obey, you'll tear down my house. How disgusting."

Tangren’s behind-the-scenes team and management team are from the Hong Kong circle, and the signed artists are from the mainland.

Very on trend.

The situation in the Hong Kong circle is not optimistic. If you want to make a living in the mainland, you must stick together. Cai Yinong has already appeased most people.

But Liu Shishi suddenly ran away, putting Tang Ren in an extremely embarrassing situation.

Hugo's contract can no longer bring much profit to Tangren.

Liu Shishi is the sugar man’s cash cow.

As long as Liu Shishi is around, she can go back on the market at any time.

Without Liu Shishi, it would be difficult to go public... She had no confidence in the gambling agreement.

The listing is stuck there, neither going up nor down, and people are uneasy.

Cai Yinong was both surprised and not surprised when Liu Shishi was abducted.

I just didn’t expect that he would suddenly run away while filming The Desert Ballad.

At least finish filming The Desert Ballad! The project is stuck!
Where can she find someone?
Originally, Mina could have taken over, but who knew that Mina had so much negative news and attracted so much criticism... Her pure character was completely destroyed.

Mango TV directly refused to let Mina be the female lead.

If Mina becomes the female lead, the deposit will be returned and the contract will be signed again.

Sugar Man is now in tatters and had been counting on the Hong Kong circle for help.

Who would have known that the Hong Kong entertainment industry was not doing well and Li Mingyang was being attacked by public opinion and was surrounded by enemies.

The Hong Kong community was in chaos, fighting for their own interests and falling apart...

Yesterday, due to textbook issues, Hong Kong students took to the streets... This matter was completely blocked.

Li Mingyang’s gang struggle in Korea is the aftermath of this internal strife!
The phone rang.

Cai Yinong came back to her senses, picked up her phone and saw that it was a call from Li Mingyang's godmother.

"Hello, President Xia."

"Now that you have time, come to my office. Our Yangyang is here too."

The cute name Yangyang caused Cai Yinong's computer to freeze for a few seconds before she reacted.

This is probably Li Mingyang's nickname.

Cai Yinong rolled her eyes, feeling disgusted by the name.

"A wolf in sheep's clothing... it's a sin to let a wolf into your home!"

Cai Yinong hung up the phone, cursing.

Without stopping, he put the documents on the table into his bag, then quickly left the room to settle the score with Li Mingyang!
