After sending Zhou Jiayi away, Li Xiang closed the office door and went downstairs to leave.

In the work area on the first floor, there were a few unfamiliar young faces, and when they saw Li Xiang, these people greeted Li Xiang in surprise and restraint, and Li Xiang was stunned for a moment, calling his brother thought it was Master Dou Dou.

"Hello. Li Xiang smiled at the five young men and women in response, left the studio, and drove away.

These newcomers came to the studio to apply. As the business got bigger, the 15 people in the studio were no longer enough and had to be scaled up. A few days ago, the studio expanded its office area and bought new desks and chairs, just to recruit new people.

On the way home, Li Xiang remembered to call Huang Youyi and tell her that he was going to Yancheng today and would go to Guangdong to meet her tomorrow afternoon.

"Really?" asked Huang Youyi happily on the phone.

"Of course it's true, my noon plane. ”

Huang Youyi chatted sweetly with Li Xiang on the phone for a while, and asked, "Are you going to Yancheng for work?"

"For movies, I have to talk to the people of Southern Cinema Company about film scheduling. ”

"Southern Cinema Company??"Am I not the God of Medicine"?"

"Yes, you know this company?"

"Oh, I've heard of it. Which of them are you going to talk to?"

"It's said to be the vice president. ”

"Oh, that's good. ”

The two talked about other topics.

"Are your knees completely healed now?"

"I also said that Xiao Lian fell to the ground today, so painful. ”

"Xiaolian, tomorrow we will call her out and play basketball with her, and I will help you abuse her. ”

“emmmm~~~~”

"What's wrong?"

"Xiaolian is better at basketball than me. ”

"It's okay, isn't this me?"

"You can't beat me. ”

“......”

After Li Xiang vowed to teach Huang Youyi and Xiaolian a good lesson, he hung up the phone.

On the other side of the phone, as soon as Huang Youyi put away the phone, she saw Xiao Lian appear in front of her, staring at her with blazing eyes.

"Why don't you make a sound when you walk?"

Xiao Lian said: "It's not that I don't make a sound when I walk, it's that you're too focused on the phone, hey-little elephant, little elephant, so numb." The little elephant is Li Xiang, right? This has a nickname? Haha, isn't it? It's all blushing, do you want to hit me?"

Huang Youyi did blush, drove away Xiao Lian, who was making fun of her, took out her mobile phone and dialed another call, and it rang twice to connect.

"Dad, is your company going to talk to others about the scheduling of "I Am Not the God of Medicine"?"

Huang Qianhe on the other end of the phone did not answer directly, but asked, "Where did you hear that?"

"Oh, now that there's this news on the Internet, it's not much secret, is it?"

"Is there this news on the Internet? This is a trade secret, how can it be on the Internet?"

"Yes, I've seen it all, otherwise how would I know the news?"

"I'll go back and have someone look it up. ”

"That's yes, isn't it? Dad, who's going to talk to them?"

"Why are you asking this? What did Lee want to tell you?"

“...... Well, Dad, who's going to talk to them?"

"Lee wants you to call?"

Huang Qianhe's tone on the phone suddenly became cold, Huang Youyi knew her father's character very well, and knew that he hated relationships, so in order to avoid misunderstanding, he hurriedly explained: "No, he didn't ask me to call you!"

"Then why is he telling you this?"

"He was going to the city, and he came to see me when the matter was over, so he told me about it. ”

"Why did he come to see you?"

“...... I'm his girlfriend. ”

"......" Huang Qianhe on the other end of the phone almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood.

"Dad, I still love you the most. ”

"Don't come to this set. Huang Qianhe said angrily.

"Dad, don't worry, Li Xiang is really not here to find a relationship. He doesn't even know what you do, where will he know that Southern Cinema Company has something to do with you. ”

Huang Youyi explained to him, and finally asked who was talking to Li Xiang about things at that time.

"You Uncle Zhang. ”

When Huang Youyi heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't her father. She was really worried that it would be her father who would personally talk to Li Xiang about work at that time, thinking about that picture, hey—I can't imagine it.

She chuckled and said, "Then you must ask Uncle Zhang not to embarrass them and happily agree to their request." ”

Huang Qianhe said angrily on the other end of the phone: "You don't know their requirements, just let your Uncle Zhang agree, are you really my daughter? What should I do if I sell the company?"

"Hey-my dad is so shrewd and capable, he definitely won't suffer, right? Do you want to, "I Am Not the God of Medicine" is so popular now, other places, like Shengjing, Modu, and Rongcheng have already increased the film scheduling rate, we can't lag behind, we must be faster, this is beneficial to both of us, right? It's a win-win situation, my dad must have thought this way a long time ago, more thoughtful than I thought......"

Huang Qianhe patiently listened to his daughter's words, and finally smiled: "As long as you are smart, don't worry, you won't embarrass them." ”

hung up the phone with his daughter, Huang Qianhe's mood immediately became no longer beautiful, what are they, isn't it Li Xiang's kid! The baby daughter who has worked hard to raise him for 18 years wants to let the elephant arch, just think about it, and he can't let it go easily tomorrow.

Originally, he didn't plan to go in person, but now that he answered his daughter's call, he asked him to meet Li Xiangzhen. Although the investigation report introduces Li Xiang's eight ancestors in detail, and he has not even let go of the cats raised at home, but hearing is false, seeing is believing, and if he doesn't meet in person, he should check in advance.

It is not easy for him to raise a daughter, he has been reluctant to scold and beat since he was a child, but now he has to give it to an outsider, look at it now, he has begun to turn his elbow outward. Every father with a daughter has to go through such a change, Huang Qianhe has been prepared, but when this moment really comes, it is still difficult to control himself, and he always wants to give that kid a little hardship.

He has been abroad for more than ten years, and his style is free and democratic, but his character in his blood is still there, and he is firm, confident and strong on key matters. This kind of character cannot simply be said to be good and bad. It is this kind of character that has allowed him to make the Southern Cinema Company from scratch, from small to large, and become the largest cinema company in southern China.

Li Xiang, who returned home, didn't know that the Southern Cinema Company that was about to meet had anything to do with his future father-in-law, Li Chao was not at home, he went to the hotel, and Xiang Xiaoyuan was busy in the kitchen.

"Mom, what are you doing here? You started making lunch so early?" Li Xiang came to the kitchen door and saw Xiang Xiaoyuan wearing an apron and cutting lemons on the cutting board, which didn't look like he was cooking.

"I'm pickling lemon slices. ”

"What is it? can lemon slices be pickled?" Li Xiang came in curiously to take a look, only to see that a large glass jar already contained half a jar of lemon slices, soaked in some liquid.

"Soaked in honey, delicious. Xiang Xiaoyuan said, take the last lemon out of the bag, wash it, and cut it into thin slices. "There's made lemon honey in the fridge, you pour a little and taste it, it's been iced for almost an hour. ”

"Okay. Li wanted to open the refrigerator, and sure enough, he saw a large jar of frozen lemon honey. There are very few lemon slices made in this one, only seven or eight slices, mainly honey water, while what Xiang Xiaoyuan is making is mainly lemon slices, and the honey is also very viscous.

He poured a glass and took a small sip, it was sweet and silky, very cold, and it was suitable for drinking this in summer.

"How?"

"It was delicious. How did you buy so many lemons?"

"It's all Dou Dou who made trouble, so I didn't pay attention to it, and I bought so much at once. ”

It's sinus again!

"What about her and her teacher?"

"Asleep. ”

"I'm going to the city at noon and I'll be back the day after tomorrow. ”

"Going to see a girlfriend?"

"Ho ho ho, no, it's about movies. ”

"See my girlfriend by the way. ”

"It's mainly about things, I'm not the God of Medicine. ”

"If you can't see your girlfriend, you won't go. ”

"Now the schedule of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" is up, but the southern coastal area is still below the average. ”

"Isn't the southern coastal area Yuezhou? Two yellow orioles are singing green willows, you still want to see your girlfriend. ”

“......”

What a naïve mom.

"Since I went to Yuezhou, I must go to see my grandmother and grandfather, don't just see my girlfriend. ”

Li Xiang said helplessly: "Can you not open your mouth and be all girlfriends?"

"Do you like mom or girlfriend?"

“...... If you and Youyi fall into the water, I will definitely save you first. ”

"Because my girlfriend can swim, right?"

"You can swim too, I'll still save you first. ”

"Even if you can talk, it's no wonder you can find a girlfriend. ”

“......”

"I'll make lunch right away when I'm done with this, and I'll leave after lunch. ”

Li Xiang was finally let go, came to the living room, the sunlight crossed the open balcony, fell into the living room, the breeze blowing from the lake blew in, the white curtain gently fluttered with the wind, the free-growing ivy and spider plant were also leisurely swaying slightly, and there were bursts of sound in the lakeside woods outside the balcony, babbling, clear with the wind, suddenly distant and sparse.

There were many different colored brushes scattered on the coffee table, and a few rolled to the ground. There are also drawing papers scattered everywhere on the ground, some are blank, some are painted with some strange patterns, some are black crooked lightning, some are naïve people and small animals, and the one at Li Xiang's feet has a few crooked blue characters written on it: "Me and My Mother".

Two children in suspender trousers fell asleep on the sofa, a silver tablet was left in their hands, and the cartoon "Three Little Pigs Build a House" was playing on the computer. Apparently, the little sister fell asleep while watching cartoons.

In addition to the little sisters falling asleep, there are also two small Shiba Inu and a kitten sleeping together.

The blue-gray Down's kitten slept between the little sisters, coiled in a circle, the little head was next to the teacher's head, and the tail wagged gently, sweeping to the face of the Dou Dou from time to time, tickling the little sister, and tickling in her sleep.

Little Shiba Inu, H and O, lay on their sides on the sofa and slept next to their sinus. One of them, I don't know if it's Xiao H or Xiao O, when he heard the footsteps, he raised his head alertly, saw that it was Li Xiang, and lay down again, flapped his furry tail twice, and continued to sleep.

Li Xiang took a light step, picked up the paper and brushes on the ground, turned off the tablet, put it on the coffee table, and then left softly, returned to the study on the second floor, suddenly heard movement behind him, looked back, a small Shiba Inu yawned and followed, saw him, wagged his tail to please.

I don't know how long it took, Li Xiang heard the cry of a child in the living room, so he went out. Dou Dou and Shishi, who were originally asleep, had woken up, Dou Dou was howling in a daze, and Xiang Xiaoyuan squatted in front of them to talk.

"It's time to eat, it's 12 o'clock. Xiang Xiaoyuan saw Li Xiang go downstairs and said.

"Pigeon pigeon~~" The teacher sat on the sofa and opened his little hands to hug him.

Li wanted to hold the child in his arms, touch Dou Dou's little head, and comfort her not to cry.

The reason why Director Dou cried for no other reason was that he was angry when he got up. She angrily threw Monchich on the ground, then ran over to pick it up again, and lay on the carpet in her arms to go back to sleep. shouted to Xiaoyuan to get up and eat, but she ignored it, turned her little body, and turned her back to everyone.

Li Xiang smiled: "Just let her continue to sleep, she will get up when she is hungry later." ”

"My sister ate a lot of cookies. The teacher said.

No wonder, Xiang Xiaoyuan touched Dou Dou's little belly, bulging, it seems that there is indeed a lot of inventory, now rest assured, let the young lady continue to sleep, they eat first, and the baby elephant has to rush to the airport.

Until lunch, Li Doudou's children were still asleep, just a little pig. Li Xiang kicked her little ass, packed her bags and went out.

He drove directly to the airport, where he met He Haoquan and Dong Wei, the vice president in charge of cinema resources of Hualan Film and Television, in addition to a man and a woman, both of whom looked quite young. These two people are the staff brought by Dong Wei, the male is called Xiao Wei, and the female is called Zhang Shasha. From the introduction, it is known that Xiao Wei is the marketing manager in charge of Hualan Film and Television in charge of the Southern Cinema Line, and Zhang Shasha is the public relations of Hualan Film and Television.

Xiao Wei and Zhang Shasha were all responsible for the travel of the group, and there was no need for Li Xiang and others to worry about it. On the plane, Dong Wei enthusiastically had a relationship with Li Xiang and He Haoquan, and Xiao Wei and Zhang Shasha brought by him were also very good talkers, and the atmosphere was very good along the way.

"Manager Xiao, what is the scheduling rate of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" by Southern Cinemas now?" He Haoquan asked Xiao Weidao.

Xiao Wei remembered it very clearly, and replied when he opened his mouth: "It's 50% of the film schedule now." ”

He Haoquan asked again: "How long has it been?"

"It's been two days, it was 40 per cent, two days ago it was 50 per cent, and we were hoping that they would increase it to 70 per cent, but it didn't work out. ”

Now in big cities such as Shengjing and Modu, the film schedule of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" has been increased to 70%, if the number of moviegoers can be maintained, then this film scheduling rate will be further improved, after all, no one will have trouble making money. If other films can't make money, why should theaters schedule films? And "I Am Not the God of Medicine" is lying down to make money, and they certainly have a reason to further increase the number of screenings. At this time, friendship is useless, everything is based on the market.

"What is the reason?" He Haoquan asked. If he can make money, he believes that it is impossible for Southern Cinema Company to press the film scheduling rate of "I Am Not the God of Medicine", there must be a key reason.

"That's right, the film market in the southern coastal area is a little different from the north, there are some Cantonese films with obvious local characteristics released here every year, these films may be silent in the national market, but they are very popular in the coastal area, and they have their own specific market ......."

He Haoquan knows this thing, not only movies, but also TV series. The most famous is the evergreen TV series "Flower City Girl" in the south, which has been broadcast for almost ten years and has been filmed for the eighth season, which is very popular in the southern coastal area, but such a TV series is little known in the north and even in the inland market. Although they both belong to China, the cultural differences in each place are quite large, resulting in great differences in viewing habits and hobbies.

He asked, "Is there a movie like this coming out now?"

Zhang Shasha interjected and smiled: "What is being released now is "Smoke and Clouds in Guangdong". ”

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Li Xiang, who was reading an e-book on the side, and saw that he didn't react, and was a little disappointed, but he immediately lifted his spirits, and the journey had just begun.

He Haoquan thought about it and listened to this movie, but he was not too impressed. This movie was actually released in Shengjing, but the film scheduling rate was pitiful, and I didn't expect it to sound very hot in the southern coastal area.

"Who made this, and who's the main actor?"

It is directed by Wu Yingsheng, starring Zhu Wei and Huang Qinghua. ”

"Oh, I remember, I also met Director Wu in Shengjing, and he was in radio and television at the time. He Haoquan asked again: "What is the film scheduling rate of this "Smoke and Clouds in Guangdong" now?"

Zhang Shasha looked at Xiao Wei, this question had to be answered by him.

Xiao Wei cleared his throat and said: "Now the film schedule rate is more than 30%. ”

He Haoquan said with a headache: "It is estimated that it will be difficult to grab his 30% share, but the remaining 20% is even more difficult to grab, seven or eight movies are all in this 20%, and if they are squeezed again, there will be no room for survival, which is almost equivalent to being released." ”

But then again, if it's easy to talk, I won't invite He Haoquan and Li Xiang to come out. Of course, Li Xiang thought that he was purely playing soy sauce, and the other party wanted to see him by name, but he didn't know why, otherwise he wouldn't go to Yancheng, but went directly to Yuezhou to meet his girlfriend.
