Chapter 950 946 Firewood
Chapter 950 946. Firewood
The meal lasted until almost 1 o'clock.
Gina was in high spirits, but I don't know if it was because of the jet lag.
But Xu Xin was really sleepy.
He didn't care about the follow-up. Lang Lang, the flower protector, was there, so the reception had nothing to do with him.
After agreeing to take her to eat roast duck tomorrow, the game was over.
Xu Xin yawned and returned to his home. He didn't complain in the group, and he didn't even bother to open the trophy box to confirm. He didn't wash his face or brush his teeth, and fell into bed.
And he slept until about 10 o'clock in the morning, and was woken up by the sound of Yang Mi coming home.
After seeing his wife, he expressed his longing for her with a hug.
Then he asked:
"Are you done?"
"Well, can you finish this movie in May? My promotion period starts in May."
"Yes."
Xu Xin nodded.
The script location of "Silent Violence" is actually very small, so there is basically no problem.
Yang Mi was relieved now.
When Xu Xin walked into the living room, he saw that three trophies had been placed on the grid of his own antique shelf together with the Silver Lion Award for Best Director in Venice.
It was golden and silver, and it was very beautiful.
It was a pity that I didn't appreciate it for too long.
I made an appointment with Gina to eat roast duck at noon.
The place was still Quanjude.
In fact, the taste of Quanjude's roast duck may not be the best in the whole Yanjing. But it is not bad.
The good taste, coupled with the reputation of "authentic roast duck", and the history and culture of the store, suddenly surpassed other stores in the same track by a lot.
It's a pity that Wang Sicong and Jay Chou can't come.
One is in Shanghai, and the other is holding concerts all over the world.
And Gina won't stay here for long. One day on the 2nd, one day on the 3rd, and she will go to the United States with Lang Lang and return to school on the 4th.
Xu Xin also said at the dinner table:
"So where do you want to go, Gina?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt his wife step on his foot.
Xu Xin, who understood what she meant, looked innocent.
He thought to himself, I didn't mean to be a light bulb.
However, when Lang Lang asked foolishly, "Let's go to the Forbidden City?", Xu Xin evaded him with a sentence, "I have classes these two days."
Little brother's level of flirting with girls needs to be improved.
In the end...
Gina's matter became Lang Lang's matter.
I don't know what Lao Lang was thinking, but Gina looked very happy anyway.
Especially when she heard Xu Xin say he was very busy...
She was as happy as Liu Yifei.
After lunch, the couple "excused themselves".
Before leaving, they apologized, saying things like "I suddenly had something to do this time, so I can't accompany you, Gina, for a walk. It's a pity. Lang Lang is free." Under Gina's teeth, the couple kept saying things.
Then, after the four people parted, the couple turned against each other.
Yang Mi left a sentence "Lao Lang and her have a play, I have a hunch", and then got Xu Xin's affirmation, and the topic was over.
At about 3 pm, Wang Sicong and Xu Zhi rushed over.
They also brought the share transfer agreement of "Tiny Times".
They exchanged 40% of the movie shares for LeTV's 3% non-share debt.
Although they are not shareholders, if they want to sell this debt later, it will be calculated based on the company's valuation, and the preferred shareholders will digest it internally.
The film "Tiny Times" is solely funded by Nifeng.
Originally, LeTV wanted to discuss it, but after hearing that "Director Xu is very optimistic about this movie, so he didn't let others touch it, and Nifeng directly took over the filming rights of "Tiny Times", it immediately agreed.
And this time, not only the two of them came, but Guo Jingming also came.
Hearing the news of this investment, he planned to get a piece of the pie.
But he naturally wouldn't show up at Lao Xu's house.
Otherwise... Xu Xin would probably clean up the house as soon as he left.
People are in high spirits when they are happy, but Xu Zhi doesn't care. The main thing is that Wang Sicong is very proud.
But I didn't see Wei.
She went back to Sichuan.
Talked to her family about the engagement.
Old Wang meant to hold an engagement banquet, and Wang Sicong agreed, but Wei didn't want to be so high-profile. She just wanted the two families to sit together and have a meal... To put it bluntly, it's still the same reason.
She didn't want people to think that she would become a phoenix after gaining power overnight.
People say that people should be low-key in life and high-profile in work, but she doesn't even want to be high-profile in things.
And according to Wang Sicong's words:
"My mother likes this about her."
Then, under the advice of his wife and son, Old Wang also agreed.
But... he still hopes to hear the opinions of Wei's family.
So Wei went home directly.
And after attending tomorrow's briefing, Wang Sicong will also rush over.
The progress of their relationship made Xu Zhi look envious.
Unfortunately...
Mr. Xu, who is really wanted by countless young stars in Shanghai, has not met his true love yet.
He can only hold his Coke cup and toast Wang Sicong frequently at dinner, with envy on his face.
Xu Xin rolled his eyes.
He also inflated Wang Sicong into a ball.
The final result led to...
On March 3, Wang Sicong sat in the car with two swollen eyelids and yawned continuously.
He really drank too much last night.
Don't think Xu Zhi doesn't drink... but he can talk.
The words that came out of my mouth were like a girl scratching the tip of my heart.
That's called comfort...
I drank too much without realizing it.
As for Xu Xin...
He was similar. When Yang Mi met him, her first words were:
"Whoever dares to make my husband drink alcohol from now on, I will kill both of you!"
However, Xu Zhi and Wang Sicong pretended not to hear these words.
We talk about it every year, listen to it every year, don’t you see that we are still alive and well?
And just when the car arrived at LeTV's headquarters, various investors were arriving one after another. In front of the business car of the three people was a Maybach.
Wang Sicong was sitting in the passenger seat, looking at the Maybach in front of him and yawning lazily.
Hangovers are really unpleasant.
At this moment, the car has arrived downstairs of the company.
LeTV’s reception this time seems to be of a very high standard, with red carpets, guest receptions, etc. all coming out.
Wang Sicong's eyes moved away from the Maybach and fell on the "beauties" standing at the door, wearing welcome cheongsam and smiling faces, and complained:
"How cold it is."
"Oh, these legs are so long."
"..."
Xu Zhi's words left Yang Mi speechless.
At this time, Cheng Hu parked the car and waited for the Maybach to get out and leave before he drove over.
And when the Maybach's rear door was opened by the doorman, Wang Sicong suddenly let out a light sigh:
"Huh?"
Then he leaned forward and narrowed his eyes.
"What's wrong?"
Yang Mi also stretched her head and looked forward, and saw a middle-aged man with a haircut, glasses, and a suit getting out of the car.
Accompanied by the bag-carrying assistant who came down from the co-pilot and a female secretary, as soon as their feet touched the ground, the group of executives from LeTV greeted us at the door and rushed over like a swarm of swarms.
Finally, surrounded by people, the three people left.
"Ha~"
Wang Sicong chuckled lightly, turned to the two of them and said:
"Do you know who that person is?"
In Yang Mi's puzzled eyes, he said:
"Liu Gang, head of North China Region of Shenzhen Innovation Investment Group."
"Have you ever been in contact?"
"Well, we attended a summit together before."
"...Is there any holiday?"
"That's not true, but he... or Chuangxin is a shareholder of LeTV. What do I mean, am I serious? LeTV must be thinking that its own people are helping their own people to increase the company's value. I bet , the investment list will be announced the day after tomorrow, and the innovative investment will be at least in the top three... It is even possible that the lead investor you mentioned is him. "
Speaking of this, he smacked his lips:
"Tsk, tsk."
Then, Cheng Hu stopped the car.
He was the first to open the door and get out of the car.
No doorman was used, and the door of the business car was opened directly.
Xu Zhi got out of the car first, and then they both reached out at the same time.
Yang Mi held the hands of these two people and walked down.
Among the group of senior executives who accompanied Liu Gang in just now, several people headed by Ren Zhongjun came over again.
"Mr. Wang, Mr. Xu, Mimi, welcome to LeTV!"
Obviously, even if they have never dealt with him before, these people have already remembered Xu Zhi's appearance.
"Hello, Mr. Ren."
Wang Sicong smiled and held his hand.
Today, he is a shareholder of Shuangwei.
Xu Zhi is a partner.
Not to mention Yang Mi.
After exchanging pleasantries, they were led to the elevator in spite of the cold weather.
After entering the elevator, Wang Sicong didn't say a word.
Does anyone know if the monitor in this elevator has a microphone?
After getting out of the elevator, stepping on the red carpet, and entering the venue, Yang Mi saw that Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying had already arrived as the three people entered.
There were several people from the same circle sitting next to him.
Sun Honglei, Deng Chao, Yao Chen, Sun Li and others are all there.
Obviously, this is here to give the platform.
"Mimi."
"hello."
Yang Mi smiled and waved.
Then she ignored Wang Sicong and Xu Zhi and walked over.
I saw the label on the chair.
The person next to her was Deng Chao.
Deng Chao, Yang Mi, Wang Sicong, Xu Zhi.
That's the order.
Sun Honglei is naturally next to Yao Chen.
Since "Wulin Gaiden", Yao Chen and another drama "Latent" he collaborated with have established their status in the industry in one fell swoop. These two years have been the time to become popular.
Needless to say, Deng Chaosun Li and his wife have been active in various fields since they came out from Huayi to set up a studio.
I want to continue to expand my career.
I just don’t know what kind of cooperation has been reached with LeTV.
Yang Mi thought about it as she sat down, and then everyone in the circle greeted her.
"Mimi, congratulations."
This is what Yao Chen said.
"Sister Mi~"
This is Yang Ying's greeting.
"Mimi, long time no see~"
This is Sun Li's.
Yang Mi replied with a smile, the expression on her face was naturally confused.
Then, Wang Sicong and Xu Zhi, who had finished chatting with a few acquaintances over there, came over.
"Mr. Xu."
"Mr. Wang."
"Brother Chao."
Some chaotic greetings sounded.
Afterwards, everyone didn’t talk about anything, just sitting there waiting for the briefing to begin.
But at this time, more or less, the reflection of status appears.
Others though are stars in the eyes of the audience.
But in the eyes of the investors present today, these people are obviously far less valuable than Wang Sicong, Xu Zhi, and Yang Mi.
"Mr. Wang."
"Oh? Mr. Wu."
"Haha~ Mr. Xu."
"Hey."
People kept coming to greet Wang Sicong and Xu Zhi, but Yang Mi had never seen these people.
But everyone would shake hands and greet Yang Mi politely.
And after they said hello, the secretary behind them would hand Yang Mi a business card with both hands.
Before the meeting started, Yang Mi was like a star holding the moon, holding a bunch of business cards in her hands.
But she didn't bring Sun Ting today. After getting the business card, she handed it to the two people next to her to help her hold it.
She didn't have a pocket.
She was socializing, and the people next to her were just watching.
It was like two different worlds.
What was going on in the hearts of these celebrities who were so noble in front of the crowd at this moment? Let’s not talk about what they thought for now.
But everyone has a common idea.
At this moment, they can really feel a gap.
A real gap.
In this briefing, they are just one of the masses.
But...
She should also be one of the masses, but at this moment, she is different.
Very different.
…
“Our business sector vision is mainly divided into 7 major sectors, namely LeTV Auto, Internet cloud ecology headed by LeTV Cloud, content ecology mainly based on LeTV Video, large-screen ecology mainly based on LeTV Super TV, mobile phones, LeTV Sports, and LeTV Finance, etc. In the future, LeTV will cover all aspects of people's lives, and currently in China, we are the only Internet company with a global ecological chain..."
The spokesperson of LeTV's IC meeting for this IPO was talking nonstop on the stage.
Although it is not as famous as Jia Leting's famous "Let us suffocate for our dreams".
But... we have to admit it.
No matter how strong they are, their PPT is indeed professional enough.
If Yang Mi didn't know what their model was, she might have been excited at this moment.
And at this moment, Wang Sicong touched her arm.
She turned her head instinctively and heard a sentence:
"Why is Yang Ying so excited?"
"..."
Yang Mi turned her head subconsciously.
She saw Yang Ying, who was next to Sun Li, clenched his fists at this moment.
The heat in his eyes was unreserved, staring straight at the PPT on the stage...
The corner of her mouth twitched.
At this time, Wang Sicong asked in a low voice:
"Didn't you two talk to Huang Xiaoming once? "
Yang Mi shook her head slightly and said nothing.
We talked, of course we talked.
But the problem is... talking doesn't mean others will listen to you.
Although Huang Xiaoming was still calm...but looking at Yang Ying's expression, Yang Mi thought that she probably didn't listen.
That's it.
It doesn't matter.
That's all I said on that day before the New Year.
As for how to consider it later...it has nothing to do with me.
...
The briefing ended in the morning.
The financing stage was naturally not open to the public, and everyone was in single-line communication.
Yang Mi invested 5 million, of which 3 million was 100 each from Liu Zhishi and Liu Yifei, and the rest was 100. One million is the money that Sun Ting, Cheng Hu and others took.
She knew that the shares of the film industry would increase by at least 20 to 30 times in the future.
But...
The same thing.
Only 20 to 30 times, is it a lot?
In terms of providing benefits for employees, Sister Mi has never been inferior to others.
What she values about LeTV is actually the influence of the Internet. In the future, they will start to make their own original TV series, and the wolf cubs of the company will eat meat.
As for money, her 5 million is not worth the shares exchanged for "Tiny Times".
As for how much others invested, she didn't ask.
At noon, a cocktail party.
"Mi Mi, hasn't Director Xu gone to the gym recently?"
"He's lazy. We were busy for a long time during the New Year, too tired, and we have been resting at home during this period. "
Yang Mi held a glass of champagne in her hand and chatted with Deng Chao who came over on his own initiative.
Someone would come over to say hello to her from time to time, and Sun Ting who came over would follow her. After getting her nod, there would be one more person's name in her WeChat.
Compared to her, who was the one who came over to make friends, others including Deng Chao did not have this treatment.
They all had to take the initiative to make friends with others.
Yang Mi's eyes could see Yang Ying from time to time.
She was still smiling at those people in the previous second, and she started chatting with another group of people in the next second.
Huang Xiaoming was the same.
In fact, she didn't look down on anything.
On the contrary, she felt quite relieved.
Because she also tried She thought that if she and her husband were from ordinary families, they would have saved their money bit by bit, and she would not miss this good opportunity.
To put it bluntly, selling her face and smiling could at least expand some resources.
Why not?
Look at Deng Chao, he is much smarter.
Right beside her.
Whoever comes, he has the opportunity to know.
What's more, after the production of "Run, Brothers" begins, he will also become one of the "fence sitters". Her own... or the connections and relationships in the Northwest circle will also lean towards him.
So, compared with others, he is really qualified to stand here.
Yang Mi is also happy to chat with him.
To help the circle recruit soldiers and horses, you naturally have to give them favors.
After the two chatted for a while, Huang Xiaoming, who had been walking around for a while, finally came over.
"Mi Mi."
"Brother, are you two going to promote your movie soon?"
She was talking about "Partners".
Huang Xiaoming smiled and replied:
"Yeah."
Deng Chao on the side said:
"It has been scheduled to be released on May 17th."
"This movie has indeed been delayed for too long..."
After chatting for a while about the movie, Huang Xiaoming asked naturally:
"Hey, Mi Mi, how much do you plan to invest this time?"
Yang Mi naturally knew that he was testing the bottom.
But he didn't hide it at all:
"0.5."
Hearing this number, both of them were stunned.
Obviously, this amount is much higher than what was given to these two people.
But the reason why Yang Mi spoke so honestly was to avoid the two of them feeling that they were not important in the future.
There was no need to hide it.
As for how the two felt after hearing this number... that was not something she considered.
Then, she changed the subject directly:
"Brother, why don't you two talk about the matter?"
Hearing this, Huang Xiaoming glanced at his girlfriend who was chatting and laughing with a few people over there, and said with a smile:
"It's not urgent yet."
"Oh~"
Yang Mi nodded.
The topic ended here.
...
After the cocktail party, it was the highlight.
In the afternoon, Yang Mi and Xu Zhi signed debt and equity financing agreements with LeTV respectively.
One was 5 million, and the other was 40% of the shares of "Tiny Times", as well as a joint issuance agreement, etc.
After a busy day, she came out of LeTV at around 4 pm.
After getting in the car, her first words were to Sun Ting and Cheng Hu:
"Brother Hu, Tingting, the financing has been finalized. When the time comes, I will give you the money after selling it, but don't tell these news outside, just keep the money you make."
"I know, sister."
Sun Ting responded with Cheng Hu who nodded silently.
She invested 300,000 yuan.
Actually, she could have invested more.
But my sister wouldn't let her.
Because the one million yuan quota had to be left for others.
But this income...
My sister told her that the minimum return could be ten times.
When Sun Ting heard this number for the first time, she felt her heart tremble.
Minimum return?
Ten times?
But now... After following my sister for a while, she completely understood the routines of these companies and finally understood why my sister used the word "minimum return" to describe it.
Wang Sicong still sat in the co-pilot seat and said nothing.
He was too lazy to even think about such trivial matters.
Coming out of LeTV headquarters, on the road next to the street, I don't know what infrastructure was broken or what was being repaired, there were a dozen workers wearing reflective tape squatting on the curb to eat.
Yang Mi glanced at the time and said in a puzzled way:
"Do people eat so late at the construction site?"
This question asked Wang Sicong's knowledge blind spot.
He didn't even know how the people at the construction site ate.
On the contrary, Xu Zhi, who had been influenced by her since childhood, looked over there after hearing her words.
He said:
"It should be a quick rescue job, mostly electricity or water pipes. This thing can't wait, probably working overtime. It delayed eating and is now making up for it."
And it happened to be the time of the traffic light, Yang Mi looked to the left through the car window.
She saw several young people holding the white lunch box and eating it, eating voraciously.
Obviously they were very hungry.
At this time, her eyes were locked on the two workers.
Clearly saw an elderly brother took a small chicken leg from the lunch box and gave it to a very young child who was eating next to him.
The child just lowered his head to eat, picked up the chicken leg and took a big bite.
And the elder brother took a few mouthfuls of rice, picked up the dirty transparent plastic cup next to him and drank a sip of water.
"...... Tsk."
Wang Sicong, who also saw all this, said:
"If Lao Xu was here, he would probably have more ideas... Alas. Did you say that they participated in the process of witnessing happiness? Of course they did. They were even the creators. But... they seemed to have nothing to do with the hustle and bustle. Maybe any dish in our unpalatable banquet at noon was as much as their daily salary. And in their lunch, there might be only a chicken leg that could be considered meat..."
He turned his face away when he said this.
I don't know if he didn't want to see it or didn't want to see it.
Looking ahead, he muttered:
"Some people transfer money from one hand to the other, relying on an illusory dream, they have a business worth tens of billions. Some people have worked hard all their lives, using their lives to make money in the first half of their lives, and using money to buy their lives in the second half of their lives, and finally they are empty-handed when they grow old. People's joys and sorrows... are really different."
Hearing this, Yang Mi was speechless.
The red light turned green and the car started.
In her sight, the workers disappeared.
I also heard Wang Sicong talking to himself.
But she didn't respond.
Or she didn't know what to say.
She just felt inexplicably... In this small group of three, it was estimated that everyone would exchange resources for several or even tens of billions of dollars, which was a bit hot.
It's not that it's hot.
It's just a kind of... very strange feeling.
Not just me, but everyone, the money in my hands at this moment has turned into hot fuel.
All gathered together to form a blazing heat source.
Or to be more precise...
It is a piece of underground coal seam that has just been ignited.
At first, you can only see green smoke.
But as time goes by... you will find that these coals, after gathering together, cannot be extinguished no matter what.
Only after it burns out and turns into ashes, the burning will end.
Thinking of this, she suddenly became more afraid.
Why do I feel... everyone's career is so good, but they are still walking on thin ice?
The road set by my husband... can we really reach the other side?
Inexplicably, I thought of the words my husband said.
"Let's not be saints."
"Just be the bottom line."
"No matter how bad the world is, it is not a reason for us to mess up."
"There must be someone to quietly repair this world..."
She used to think these words were particularly right.
But now... after going through this financing meeting where the combined assets of the capital power behind it may exceed tens of billions, she also saw those hard-working workers repairing certain facilities.
She agreed with her husband's words.
But the problem is... the burning of coal seams is always supported by combustibles.
The burning "world" of the future.
Its combustibles...
what will they be?
