Chapter 2103: A Troubled Gift
Ma Yun arrived at the restaurant where Xiao Qi treated guests in his Mercedes-Benz.
He hasn't bought the super Maybach that has been widely rumored on the Internet, but Mr. Ma's style of traveling is already enough.
The restaurant is located between mountains and rivers on the outskirts of the city. Although it is not as beautiful and elegant as the West Lake, it has a different style when looking at the lake and mountains in winter.
"Qi Shao!"
Inside the box, Ma Yun greeted Xiao Qi with a smile.
He glanced at Song Jiejie and just nodded slightly.
"Mr. Ma, this is my girlfriend, Song Jiejie." Xiao Qi introduced, "Jiejie, this is the CEO of Taobao.com, have you ever bought anything on Taobao.com?"
"Not yet, but several of my friends like it." Song Jiejie stretched out her hand, shook hands with Ma Yun and then withdrew it, with a dignified and generous attitude, like a famous lady.
"I have seen "xxx" played by Ms. Song." Ma Yun who sat down said the name of a martial arts drama in ancient costume.
"Heck~~" Song Jiejie tapped the powder happily.
Being able to make people remember the role she played is naturally something that a star should be happy about.
Although Song Jiejie knows that Ma Yun is an executive of Xiao Qi's company, if she is not Xiao Qi's woman, she is not high enough to get acquainted with Ma Yun, so she feels a little honored that a celebrity like Ma Yun can remember the role .
During the meal, Ma Yun didn't talk much because he couldn't figure out the purpose of Xiao Qi's visit.
But Xiao Qi took the initiative to chat, "By the way, Mr. Ma, I heard that you bought almost 10% of Baoyu Group's shares?"
"There is such a thing." Ma Yun nodded and said, "I am interested in entertainment. They asked me a while ago, and I just bought 10% of it. But I wanted to buy more, and they were not willing to sell it."
"That's a coincidence, Mr. Ma, you and Jiejie still have some connections. Jiejie also owns 15 million shares of Baoyu Group. You are both Baoyu's shareholders." Xiao Qi laughed.
"Hehe." Ma Yun nodded. "I have no interest in running an entertainment company, just playing tickets."
"Speaking of playing tickets. Jiejie, aren't you going to star in a TV series recently? I heard that everyone is looking for actors, isn't it?" Xiao Qi turned to Song Jiejie and said.
"Well, I have a new movie "Swordsman", which is co-produced by Baoyu Group and TVB. Now the main actors are almost confirmed, otherwise you can go to play ticket and try it out, Mr. Ma." Song Jiejie said cooperatively.
Ma Yun was originally casual, but he was refreshed when he heard the words. "Swordsman? Is it settled?"
Song Jiejie's eyes were fixed, and she immediately smiled, "Yes, it's "Swordsman", I played Ren Yingying, and the director team is planning to shoot around Lin'an. ... The character that Director Ma mentioned , didn’t he only come out a few times? Why do you seem to know it well?”
"Of course I understand!" Ma Yun came to the spirit, and said eloquently: "Feng Qingyang is a dragon who sees his head but never ends. Although he doesn't appear much in "Swordsman". He is the soul of the whole book, and my favorite is this expert!"
"Heck~~ That's a coincidence. The role of Feng Qingyang hasn't been decided yet, why don't you play one, Mr. Ma?" Song Jiejie pursed her lips and smiled.
"Good! Good! Good!!"
Ma Yun was very excited. I couldn't help but patted the table.
Judging by his current appearance, he doesn't look like an overlord of online business, but rather an ordinary little martial arts fan.
But in the next moment, he suddenly came to his senses, turned his eyes a few times, and asked Xiao Qi suspiciously: "Young Master Qi, how did you know?"
"As long as you have the heart, you can find out." Xiao Qi shrugged and said without concealing, "How is it? Mr. Ma, are you satisfied with this gift?"
"Satisfied! How can you be dissatisfied?" Ma Yun suddenly laughed. "Good! Qi Shao, you are really a good friend!!"
"He is indeed a good enough friend." Song Jiejie also said, "I have heard that the project of this drama was established first, and then we found the protagonists... Originally, TVB and Baoyu did not make "Swordsman" this year. The plan of "Jianghu"! Even the director is talking about the investment of more than 80 million yuan, but there is no discussion at all, and it is a bit confusing to pull up the team in just one month."
"Hehe!" Ma Yun nodded, "Not bad, 80 million investment is not small!"
"When Chairman Ma came, did you see several tables of people eating?" Xiao Qi changed the subject.
"I see, there are many people, and they all have accents from all over the world." Ma Yun is also a smart person, and he came to his senses after speaking: "Could it be that they are from the crew?"
"That's right, the director, producer, assistant director, and screenwriter are all here." Xiao Qi said, "Director Ma can go and chat with them later, how Feng Qingyang will appear on stage, how many times will he appear on stage, and how to design the scene , we can talk about it.”
Ma Yun's eyes lit up, and he couldn't sit still, "Hey, Mr. Qi, I, Ma Yun, have received gifts from many people in my life, but I have never received such a troublesome gift! Just for you, I will I'm not as good as you, so I won't be wronged if I lose to you!"
Hearing what he said, Xiao Qi really laughed happily.
Isn't he trying his best to give Ma Yun some compensation and let him let go of some resentments in his heart?
Now it seems that things are basically done!
Speaking of it now, Song Jiejie is a little strange, she doesn't understand why such a big man like Ma Yun is happy to play a small role. Wan told her how to talk today.
It's normal for her not to understand.
Now is not 2013, it is not the time when Ma Yun is in full swing, and his words can be praised for a while, and it is not the time when all of Ma Yun's old backgrounds are dug out.
So few people know that this strange-looking internet business tsar is the most authentic martial arts fan.
When he was able to meet with Jin Yong, he talked about several of Jin Yong's novels clearly, and he could also go to Chenjiagou to practice for several months in order to learn authentic Taijiquan, and he continued to practice for many years.
He can also name his conference room "Guangmingding", his office "Peach Blossom Island", or he can use moves such as "Dugu Nine Swords" as the name of the corporate culture.
The most amusing thing is that because he loves the character of Feng Qingyang so much, when Zhang Big Beard filmed "Swordsman" in 2001, he entrusted countless connections to lobby, and wanted to play Feng Qingyang who hadn't appeared many times. Clear.
Even Ma Yun is willing to give a large amount of sponsorship to TV dramas, as long as you agree that he will wear ancient costumes on stage.
But Zhang Dazi thought about it painfully for a long time, and still felt that the face of Ma Yun's children's shoes was really too different from that of Mr. Feng Qingyang, so he could only regretfully reject the money that came to his door.
Ma Yun has always been worried about this incident. Once he met Zhang Dazizi, he refused to forgive him and asked, "Is that guy really comparable to me? Why don't you ask him to come over and I will compete with him in martial arts?"
Because of this, many years later, at the Alibaba annual meeting, Ma Yun boldly dressed up the classic look of Liang Yusheng's "The White-haired Witch", scaring countless children.
Well, maybe at that time Ma Yun Children's Shoes wanted to look clean.
Therefore, Xiao Qi satisfied Ma Yun's obsession, and he was so sincere that he allowed him to modify some scripts to make Feng Qingyang's role more important. and excitement are difficult.
As for why Xiao Qi did this, it was naturally for the Alibaba Group.
In his previous life, Sun Zhenyi was so strong that he failed to make Ma Yun succumb. In the end, relying on the 40% shares of YAHOO, Sun Zhenyi was firmly excluded from the decision-making level of Alibaba, and Sun Zhenyi had to invite him to be a soft and hard director. Director of the bureau, from this we can see Ma Yun's character.
With the help of future memories, Xiao Qi successfully became the largest shareholder of Alibaba.
But this does not mean that he can control a great genius like Ma Yun, and if Ma Yun can't concentrate on doing business, Taobao.com and Zifubao will never reach the heights of their previous lives.
In Xiao Qi's business empire, Taobao.com and Zifubao are definitely the core assets, so Xiao Qi naturally wants Ma Yun to let go of the resentment in his heart and work hard for him.
But this kind of thing is not something that Xiao Qi can achieve, the key is how to subdue Ma Yun.
Injecting hundreds of billions of capital into the Alibaba Group is one trick, and giving Ma Yun a high salary and stock incentives is another trick. It is also a trick to satisfy his obsession with acting.
Ma Yun saw what Xiao Qi did.
After doing all kinds of things, Ma Yun naturally understood that Xiao Qi valued himself very much.
It is absolutely rare for a man who is the richest man in the world to create a TV series specifically for his subordinates to satisfy his wishes.
If under such circumstances, Ma Yun still appears rebellious, I believe that the relationship between the two will be completely broken in the future. Not only will Ma Yun not be able to achieve his ambitions, but he may not even have the opportunity to work in Alibaba.
Flower sedan chairs are carried by people.
Now Xiao Qi's signal is friendly enough, and Ma Yun is not an idiot, of course he knows what he should do.
Of course.
Efforts to develop the Alibaba Group is a matter of the future.
Now Ma Yun's thoughts are already flying to the crew of "Swordsman".
The veteran martial arts fan trembled with excitement when he remembered that he was about to show his elegant demeanor in front of martial arts fans all over the country.
It's a rare opportunity, this time I must act beautifully, and let the group of guys with big beards see who is the real Feng Qingyang! ! (to be continued ~^~)
