Chapter 1988: Influence

"Hi, Feng," Palmater strode in and looked around at the decorations in the living room, "it's really nice here,"

"I heard that you bought land and built this mansion in Beverly Hills a few years ago. Do I have reason to believe that you were eyeing Marvel a few years ago?"

"Yeah, if I said that a few years ago, I was ready to unconditionally contribute money and efforts when Marvel needed it, wouldn't you be grateful?" Feng Yiping said.

"Haha, do you think this is necessary? Even Marvel belongs to you now," Palmater still looks unconvinced.

"As the original largest shareholder, shouldn't you be the most grateful to me as the successor?"

As Marvel's original largest shareholder, Palmater was the one who made the most money from this acquisition.

"Besides, I have always felt that no matter what, Marvel will be a child that you are willing to use all your energy for the rest of your life to protect. Am I wrong?"

"No, you are right about this, Feng. I will always be the guardian of Marvel. I hope that with our efforts, Marvel can become a world-class film company,"

"Believe me, it will definitely happen. This is also the main purpose of why I came to you today, please,"

"Oh, Palmater, this is my neighbor Jessica Alba, she's..."

"I know, it's nice to meet you, our invisible girl," Palmater held Alba's hand and glanced at her and Feng Yiping playfully. It's not like he hadn't read any gossip about them.

Feng Yiping smiled meaninglessly. This old gentleman, of course, did it on purpose. Even asking Alba to go to Asia and asking Feng Yiping to cooperate with the publicity, he took the initiative to call and mention it. Is there anything else he doesn't know?

"Alba, I hope we can still afford you when we shoot the second part," he said with a smile.

But this might not really be a joke.

If Alba can move up this year, become A-List, and successfully enter the ranks of Hollywood's multi-million dollar club, then the old Parmat, who has always been stingy, may really consider changing roles.

Regarding this point, Feng Yiping had seen related gossip before. However, he originally thought it was gossip, but now it seems that it is the truth.

For example, after the success of "Iron Man", the guy Palmater hated the most was Robert Downey Jr., who played Iron Man, calling him a vampire.

Because that guy's salary was only 20 million U.S. dollars, and with box office dividends, a movie could easily exceed 60 to 70 million dollars. In Palmater's words, Downey made all the money by himself.

It is said that Palmater wanted to change the actor several times midway through the film, but he had no choice but to give up because he was not sure he could find someone who could act as well as Robert Downey Jr.

However, the other main actors in the film did not receive such good treatment. The role of Gwyneth Paltrow, the female secretary next to Downey, was sometimes more and sometimes less, for this reason.

Iron Man's friend, the Air Force colonel who once saved him, was simply replaced. I heard that Palmater said at the time that no one would remember what a black actor looked like...

Alba obviously had a full understanding of this point about Palmater. She said obediently, "If it is as you said, Mr. Palmater, I will definitely reduce the price for the role."

"Haha," Parmat couldn't stop laughing. He liked the ones with amazing price cuts.

Since he is now the big boss of Marvel, Feng Yiping is also happy that Marvel has such a stingy leader.

"Alba, believe me, you will definitely be among the first-tier players," Palmater said, looking at Feng Yiping again.

Just say it, what do you want me to do? "Palmater, this is Lily Collins," he said, pointing to Collins who was eager to take out his camera.

"Oh, let me think about it, you must be Phil and Jill's daughter. Time flies so fast. The little girl back then has grown into a beautiful woman now,"

"Thank you Mr. Palmater," Collins smiled sweetly, "I especially like those Marvel superheroes,"

"Really, you also intend to enter the acting industry? Yes, based on your conditions, you will definitely be able to succeed in Hollywood in the future." He patted Collins' hand, "So, who are these two little darlings?"

As soon as he entered, he noticed Vincent and Amanda.

And Collins happened to have black hair, which made him a little suspicious. Could it be that these two children were Alba and Collins's?

If this is the case, then Feng Yiping will be great and he will be in trouble.

"This is my son Vincent, and this is my daughter Amanda, come and say hello to grandpa," Feng Yiping called over the two children who were holding hands again.

"Hello grandpa,"

"Oh, what a little angel," Palmater squatted and looked at the two children, smiling particularly kindly.

After hearing Feng Yiping's introduction, he finally felt relieved.

He was worried that if it was what he thought, then no matter what, these two girls would probably be indispensable in Marvel movies in the future.

In other words, Feng Yiping bought Marvel because of these two girls, so he will definitely suffer in the future. Now, it is just a false alarm.

"Alba, Collins, I'm sorry, Palmater and I have some work to discuss, you..."

"We can just take care of ourselves," Collins said with a smile, "You go about your business," she actually had no intention of leaving, and even Alba found a reason to stay.

Feng Yiping nodded, "Leticia, Amanda will be left to you,"

"No, I think I can take care of her," Collins picked up Amanda, "How about we go play with my sister?"

"Brother," Amanda pointed at Vincent, who was still held by Feng Yiping.

"Brother has something to do, Amanda, you can play with your sisters, Palmater, let's go upstairs,"

"Oh, our little princess is sad," Collins said with a smile, watching Amanda looking at her brother who was being led upstairs by her father without blinking.

Amanda didn't speak, she just rested her head on Collins's arms. Yes, she was sad.

However, she also knew that when her father had work to discuss, it was not the time for her to lose her temper.

…………

"Feng, what are you doing?" On the balcony on the second floor, Palmater asked with some confusion when he saw that Feng Yiping let Vincent sit at the table.

"Oh, this little guy has always been interested in my work, let him experience it today," Feng Yiping said nonchalantly.

In fact, he wanted his son to experience it in advance and receive some influence.

"Don't worry, he won't disturb us,"

Vincent sat there neatly, sipping biscuits, and Feng Yiping took a sip of coffee, "Palmat, I have some ideas about Marvel's current structure and would like to ask for your opinion."

"Wait a minute," Palmater took out a folder from his bag. "This is Marvel's organizational structure and information about its executives. Tell me how you want to change it."

It seemed that he also understood what Feng Yiping would talk to him about today.

Downstairs, Alba and Collins couldn't help but look towards the balcony on the second floor. "What do you think Feng did with Vincent when they were talking about work?" Collins asked.

"I don't know," Alba shook her head. After all, she didn't know how Chinese entrepreneurs train the next generation, but after all, she was a few years older and had more experience. "Could it be that Feng wanted Vincent to Have you been exposed to these things since you were a child?”

"Huh?" Collins was stunned, "He's still so young!"

"Isn't there still prenatal education?" Alba said.

This reason was so powerful that Collins had nothing to say for a moment, "It's just, why can Vincent do it but not Amanda? This is discrimination!"

"Come on Collins, do you think Amanda can sit still like Vincent now?"

"Haha, that's right," Amanda seemed to have forgotten that her father had brought her brother with him and left her behind. She was going back and forth taking the pillows from the backyard sofa to the ground to build a castle.

In fact, Vincent couldn't sit still at this moment.

After my father and this skinny-looking old man spoke a few words, the other party's voice suddenly became louder. My father was a little better, but he also looked very annoyed.

As they talked, the two people actually stood up and stared at each other fiercely. Are they going to fight?

Collins and Alba downstairs also saw this scene and were shocked, "What's wrong with them?"

ps: Merry Christmas!
