Chapter 341 Watching the Movie in Advance
"Zhang San, come here, shall we go see a movie?"
Fang Xiaobing made another demand, this time with an even more forceful tone. Zhang San felt helpless; this wasn't the first time Fang Xiaobing had treated him like this, but faced with the child in her arms, he couldn't argue back.
Gao Yuanyuan and Wang Shengyi were gentle and never complained, which Zhang San found to be wonderful. However, he still had to obediently go over, since Fang Xiaobing always used the child to blackmail him, leaving him feeling quite helpless.
At this moment, Zhang San is focused on buying and selling stocks, keeping him extremely busy with the turbulent global stock market.
But when he heard Fang Xiaobing say she wanted to watch a movie, he suddenly realized that he might need some rest time to balance work and rest. So, he grumbled and walked over to Fang Xiaobing: "Come here, come here, what movie are you watching? What's good?" Although he was a little reluctant, he still asked about the specific movie out of curiosity.
Fang Xiaobing excitedly replied, "Pirates! Pirates of the Caribbean! This is the third movie out this year, don't you want to see it?"
She looked at Zhang San expectantly, hoping to get a positive answer.
Zhang San fell into thought. Was this movie worth watching? He looked at her with a bewildered expression and said, "It's simple. You don't need to go to the cinema; you can watch it here. I'll make a call."
"Hello, this is Stephen Rob. Send me a copy of 'Pirates of the Caribbean' to my address: *****, you know it? Thanks for your help." Zhang San hung up the phone, thinking that Rob should send the copy over soon.
Then he remembered that Rob had recently expressed his intention to resign. Rob felt he was too old to continue the job. He recommended Powell to Zhang San, explaining that Powell was currently on probation and serving as Rob's assistant.
Today, the global entertainment group is doing quite well, and can be considered a mid-level player among the Big Six film studios in North America and even globally. Although they release many excellent films every year, with annual box office revenue exceeding five billion US dollars, it is regrettable that the company is still in a state of 'loss'.
"Who did you call just now to get someone to send a copy over?"
"Global Entertainment, my words still carry weight." Zhang San revealed a smug smile.
"Haha..." Fang Xiaobing found his smug look amusing, then she ran away, pulled Wang Shengyi and Gao Yuanyuan over, and said, "Hey, this guy said he has connections with Global Entertainment, and with just one phone call, he actually got a copy of 'Pirates of the Caribbean' that hasn't even been released yet to be sent over."
The two women couldn't help but smile, thinking that even if Zhang San was rich, he shouldn't have gone to such lengths.
"Let's watch a movie tonight." Zhang San felt offended. What? He was the boss of a global entertainment company, why couldn't he ask them to send him a copy?
"Are you sure you're not just bragging?" Wang Shengyi laughed.
"What nonsense am I spouting?" Zhang San said speechlessly. "I'm serious, you'll find out tonight."
"Okay, then let's wait and see," Gao Yuanyuan said with a smile.
Looking at their expressions, Zhang San thought to himself, "You'll see how powerful they are soon enough!"
After dinner, Zhang San took the three of them to the entertainment center. This building had six floors and was arguably the tallest building in the area. They went to the second floor, where there was a family movie theater. They would come here to watch movies when they were bored.
"Alright, ladies, the time to witness a miracle has come," Zhang San said mysteriously.
"You really had someone deliver it?" Li Si asked in surprise.
"Just watch, hehe..." Zhang San replied with a smile.
This year, Global Entertainment will release over a dozen films, including three blockbusters concentrated during the summer and Christmas/New Year's periods. Other low-budget films will be released at least once a month. In addition, various formats such as television series, online films, and video films will also be released, contributing to the company's losses.
Inside the family screening room, Zhang San warmly prepared a variety of snacks and drinks for Fang Xiaobing and the other two girls. When the lights were turned off, the four sat in comfortable seats, eagerly anticipating the start of the movie "The Pirates."
As the screen lit up, the four men's attention was drawn to the movie. They were captivated by the exciting plot, their hearts pounding with the pirates' adventures.
Fang Xiaobing and the other two girls enjoyed snacks and drinks while laughing heartily at the scenes in the movie. Zhang San sat quietly to the side, watching their happy expressions, feeling a sense of pride.
The film's sound effects resonated throughout the theater, creating a realistic atmosphere. The four felt as if they were in a pirate world, experiencing thrilling adventures alongside the protagonists.
Time flew by unnoticed, and when the movie ended, all four of them were still reluctant to leave. "This movie was fantastic!" Fang Xiaobing exclaimed excitedly.
"It was truly spectacular," Wang Sheng nodded.
"I never expected to be able to watch such a good movie at home," Gao Yuanyuan exclaimed.
Zhang San smiled and said, "This is nothing. I'll take you to the film set sometime in the future."
"Really?" the three women asked in unison.
"Of course, I keep my word," Zhang San said confidently.
Zhang San stood there with a confident smile on his face, and began to boast about his abilities. His voice was high-pitched and impassioned, as if he were proclaiming to the world his omnipotence.
"What's the big deal about letting them make copies in advance?" Zhang San scoffed, a hint of pride in his eyes, as if it were a piece of cake for him.
"Going to the film set is nothing special." His words were full of confidence in his abilities. The three women, who had initially thought highly of him, now looked at him like he was an idiot. They thought he was amazing, but he was getting cocky.
"Hey, don't you believe me? With just a word from me, you can become the lead actors in a low-budget movie." Zhang San said this directly when he saw that they didn't believe him.
"Do you think Hollywood is your private property, where you can just do whatever they want?" Fang Xiaobing said. "You might be able to do that in mainland China, where TV stations need your guys. But this is Hollywood; they won't listen to you here."
"Hehe...that depends on who it is. I can't say how big my influence is in Hollywood; but I can influence at most one-sixth of Hollywood, and I can't say about the rest."
"Wow, you're awesome! Let's go. I'm pretty tired after watching it. I'll do some exercise later, otherwise I'll gain weight tomorrow."
The three women left without looking at Zhang San; Zhang San stopped arguing, thinking to himself that it was better not to act in the movie.
