The entertainment empire began with Liu Yifei's premarital pregnancy.

"Mr. Wang, let's speak frankly!"

After Wang Wei finished speaking, Lin Bufan thought for a moment and then cut to the chase, stating his position directly: "I know what you mean, Mr. Wang. You're worried that I'll seize power since I currently hold more than 51% of the voting rights."

"Mr. Lin, I..."

Wang Wei was about to explain when Lin Bufan raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Mr. Wang, if you try to explain further, it will only make things more pointless."

Hearing Lin Bufan say this, Wang Wei remained silent for a moment, then looked up at him seriously: "Mr. Lin is right. You now have more than 51% of the voting rights on Tudou.com. If you want to seize power, I have no way to fight back."

Unless he can pull all the management and technical staff away from Potato and start anew.

But is that even possible?

Their first entrepreneurial venture, starting from scratch, began with Wang Wei. But as the potato business grew, could they stick with him and start a new business together?

There might be some people, but at most only three to five.

He understood this in his heart.

"To be honest, I am very satisfied with our conversation just now, as well as your views on the development and plans of Tudou.com."

As Lin Bufan was speaking, he suddenly changed the subject: "However, I have one request."

"What?"

Wang Wei was initially pleased by the praise, thinking it meant that Lin Bufan might not try to seize power from him.

"If you can do that, I assure you that unless you make a major mistake in the company's development, I will absolutely not let anyone take your place and seize power."

"Mr. Lin, what are your requirements?"

Wang Wei looked at Lin Bufan with a serious expression.

"I want your spouse to sign the equity waiver agreement," Lin Bufan said earnestly, looking at Wang Wei.

Lin Bufan was worried that the same thing would happen again, so he prepared to bring out the "potato clause" ahead of time.

"Mr. Lin, I don't understand..."

Wang Wei frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled.

He had assumed that Lin Bufan's request was about the company, but he hadn't expected it to be about him personally.

"The ultimate goal of Tudou.com is definitely to go public, and I don't want any uncontrollable factors to arise during the listing process," Lin Bufan said earnestly to Wang Wei.

Tudou.com was incredibly successful back then, practically a monopoly on the internet. However, at the crucial moment when Tudou was preparing for its IPO in the US, his wife, Yang Lei, filed for divorce and property division, and applied to freeze Wang Wei's shares, directly causing Tudou.com's IPO to be postponed.

Ultimately, Youku, which was originally in the second tier, went public before Tudou, completely crushing Tudou's development, and eventually Youku even acquired Tudou.

On its first day of trading, Youku's market capitalization exceeded 30 billion US dollars.

This originally belonged to Tudou, but because his wife filed for divorce, he handed over the first share of video to Youku.

"I understand Mr. Lin's request, and I agree to it."

Wang Wei agreed without much hesitation.

He and his future wife, Yang Lei, who is now a host on Dragon TV, have not yet registered their marriage, so naturally he doesn't care about such things.

For a man, career is far more important than woman.

If Yang Lei is unwilling to sign, he naturally won't register the marriage with her.

After signing the agreement, Lin Bufan felt reassured about the development of Tudou.com.

He also understood that Wang Wei would definitely try to take back control of the company from him, such as by raising funds to dilute his shares and indirectly weaken his control.

Even if Wang Wei ultimately fails to gain absolute control, at least he cannot allow Tudou.com to become Lin Bufan's "one-man show".

Lin Bufan was not worried about this at all.

When Tudou.com raises funds for the next time, Zhewei Capital will definitely continue to participate. In reality, it won't dilute anything, and may even further increase its influence.

However, that's in the future, maybe even next year or the year after.

……

After dealing with this matter, Lin Bufan threw himself back into filming "Lust, Caution".

After continuous adjustments, the filming of "Lust, Caution" is progressing more and more smoothly, and the lead actors are becoming more and more immersed in their roles.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! Monthly check-in successful. You have received the following rewards: one bottle of Liuwei Emperor Pills (10 pills) + one bottle of Beauty and Nourishing Pills (10 pills) + 100 million US dollars + a copy of the script for the movie "Kung Fu Jungle".]

Before he knew it, it was February. Lin Bufan woke up in the morning and immediately checked in.

"Kung Fu Jungle"

Lin Bufan certainly knew about this movie.

Wang Baoqiang brought the character Feng Yuxiu in the movie to life, a character who "distinguished between superiors and inferiors, and decided life and death." If he remembers correctly, the movie later grossed over 100 million yuan.

As for the production cost, he forgot about it.

However, recalling the production process, it doesn't seem to have been a very large-scale event, nor did it cost much.

Just as Lin Bufan was thinking about it, he heard a "ding" sound beside him, so he put the script into his dimensional space.

"woke up!"

Lin Bufan turned his head and looked at Ajiao, who had just woken up.

Gillian Chung came to Beijing from Hong Kong yesterday. She has a work commitment here, and she didn't go back the same day after arriving.

"Um!"

Gillian opened her eyes and saw Lin Bufan, a happy smile spreading across her face.

For a woman, the happiness and peace of mind of opening her eyes and seeing her beloved man lying beside her comes from the bottom of her heart.

Of course, if you don't love them, that's another story.

"I think you shouldn't be called Ah Jiao anymore, just call you Little Shui Jiao!"

After getting up, Lin Bufan glanced back at the wet blankets and teased Ajiao.

"Hate!"

Gillian gave a disgruntled snort and rolled her eyes at him.

After breakfast, Gillian Chung had a busy schedule, and Lin Bufan also had to go to the film set to shoot a movie.

It's already February, and there are still two weeks until the Lunar New Year. Normally, film crews that are currently shooting rarely take a break because of holidays.

Even during the Lunar New Year, countless film crews still have to film, even though it's the holiday season.

But Lin Bufan was unwilling. The New Year was the New Year; others didn't rest, but he wanted to.

So these past few days, I've been working overtime filming, just so I can have three days off during the Chinese New Year.

"Director Lin!"

When I arrived at the film set, the main actors were already there.

"Get the props and lighting ready. We'll start filming in half an hour!"
