Chapter 567 The Heirs

The temperature in Tiandu has started to rise, and the air is filled with the breath of spring.

The young people took off their thick down jackets and put on relatively thinner jackets. Luoyang, on the invitation of someone, sat in the car driven by bodyguard Long Wanchun and came to the revolving restaurant on Yijiang Road in Tiandu.

"Happy New Year."

After entering the restaurant, Luoyang sat down and Xiao Yan greeted him.

Luoyang took the menu, checked a few dishes he was interested in, and looked up and said, "Happy New Year."

"I watched a few TV series, they are really great. The thing I regret most now is that I didn't buy the copyright of your martial arts novels at that time, otherwise I would be the one counting money until my hands are soft." Xiao Yan said with some regret.

Luoyang took a sip of tea, "I will definitely take you out next time I encounter this kind of opportunity."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's smile gradually turned bitter: "You must not have paid attention to the movie version of "5 Centimeters per Second"."

Luoyang was stunned for a moment. Xiao Yan did buy the film and television rights of the comic "5 Centimeters per Second" from his company before, but he didn't pay much attention to it afterwards. Now looking at Xiao Yan's appearance, the movie version of "5 Centimeters per Second" should be a flop.

However, he still asked politely: "Is the live-action movie of "5 Centimeters per Second" very bad?"

Xiao Yan helplessly spread his hands: "I invited the best director and star, invested more than 80 million, but ended up losing so much money that I couldn't recognize my grandmother."

He paused, and then said: "I summarized the reasons for this failure. The first is that TV is different from movies. I am still suitable for TV series in the future. The second is that I lack your help. You are the biggest factor in the popularity of "Nirvana in Fire" before."

"This is because you are not well prepared. It has nothing to do with me."

"Luo Da, don't be modest. All the works shot after taking your copyright have become popular, except "5 Centimeters per Second". It means that I did not operate properly."

Seeing Xiao Yan say this, Luo Yang didn't know what to say. He didn't think that Xiao Yan operated improperly. Some stories are only suitable for happening in the second dimension. If you insist on putting them on the big screen in a real-life form, it will require a lot of adaptation skills.

If it doesn't work, then it's probably because Xiao Yan's vision is wrong.

Xiao Yan waved her hand and said, "Let's not talk about this. I came to Luo Da today to invite him to a banquet."

"Banquet?"

"Yes, it's a banquet held by my family."

Luoyang showed an interested look: "What's the situation in your family?"

Even the fairy tale king seemed to be quite afraid of Xiao Yan, which naturally made Luoyang curious about the latter's identity.

Xiao Yan smiled and said, "Yinghuang Media, a multinational media company, was founded in 1988 and is headquartered in Tiandu. Its business scope spans the publishing, film and television industries. It includes Time Magazine, Sports Illustrated, Fortune Magazine, Life Magazine, TV Network, Comics Company, Yinghuang Entertainment and other media with global influence. My grandfather Xiao Huanyu is the helmsman of Yinghuang Media. I am 25 years old this year and my grandfather's third grandson."

Yinghuang Media?

Luoyang was slightly stunned.

Yinghuang, this is a legendary media giant, involving many industries, media publishing and entertainment, and it can almost get involved, not to mention that Yinghuang Entertainment, a subsidiary of Yinghuang Media, is the leader among Longguo Entertainment Companies.

Luoyang smiled and said, "If you count it this way, you are a prince-level figure."

No wonder Huang Gang was so wary of Xiao Yan before. The latter has the support of a behemoth like Yinghuang Media. It is difficult for Huang Gang not to be wary. This also explains why Xiao Yan can own a large entertainment company in China at such a young age.

Xiao Yan smiled bitterly and said, "I rely on my grandfather. Luo Da, you are the one who started from scratch."

Luoyang waved his hand and said, "Why didn't you call me directly when Yinghuang Entertainment asked me to buy the copyright of "Peerless Twins"? If I knew that this was your grandfather's company, things would be much easier to talk about."

Xiao Yan shook her head and said, "That's meaningless. Favors are something that you use every time and then you lose them once."

Luoyang laughed. Indeed, if Xiao Yan asked to buy the copyright of "Peerless Twins" as his friend, Luoyang would definitely make some appropriate concessions, but this would also damage the friendship between Luoyang and Xiao Yan to a certain extent.

The waiter gradually began to serve the dishes.

Xiao Yan took a bite and said, "And I am me, my company, and my grandfather are separate."

Luoyang took a sip of tea, "I roughly understand what you mean, but I still won't go to the banquet you mentioned."

The banquet hosted by the Emperor of Shadows is definitely the most top-level banquet in the country. It is a real upper-class society, and the attendees must be real big shots. Although Luoyang has already fought for his own world, he knows very well that there are still too many people he can't afford to offend.

Xiao Yan frowned and advised: "Luo Da, think about it again. You should understand the value of attending such a banquet."

"Are you talking about connections?" Luoyang shook his head: "I'm just a writer. I don't want to climb to any height, so connections are dispensable to me. I always think that I can write books with peace of mind."

"But Luo Da will come into contact with these sooner or later."

"I'm not very interested in what you said."

The conversation ended here. Xiao Yan was a very smart person. He saw that Luoyang really had no interest in socializing to expand his career, so he didn't continue to talk to Luoyang about the banquet, and instead discussed other things.

For example, Luoyang's future development.

Luoyang briefly talked about his New Year's plan, and when the meal was over, Xiao Yan seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Luoyang noticed this keenly, and did not rush to leave. He drank tea again and asked with a smile: "Anything else you want to say, say it all at once?"

Although Xiao Yan and Luoyang were not good friends who talked about everything, their relationship was pretty good. The two usually spoke directly, and this was the first time Xiao Yan hesitated so much.

Xiao Yan saw that Luoyang had noticed something strange, so he stopped hesitating and said: "Luo Da, as your status and influence continue to expand, have you ever thought that you have actually been involved in some people's games a long time ago?"

"What do you mean?"

Luoyang frowned slightly.

Then, as if he had thought of something, Luoyang suddenly asked expressionlessly: "You mean, Amber?"

Xiao Yan nodded and said: "I think Luo Da probably doesn't know that the brother and sister's surname is Qin. The family behind them is one of the media giants in Longguo, just like Yinghuang. However, because of their family, they have a very fierce internal struggle."

Looking at Luoyang's face, Xiao Yan continued:

"The brother and sister are quite talented, but because they were not born in the direct lineage, they are quite isolated and helpless. So when I first saw Qin Amber as Luo Da's assistant, I was a little surprised..."
