Chapter 256: Uninvited Guest

As an asset, a veteran private media and entertainment company with qualifications second only to HY, although the status of Optical Fiber Media in the imperial circle is not like a bridgehead like HY, it has accumulated more than ten years, and Optical Fiber Media has also accumulated a large network of contacts.

And unlike HY's focus on the imperial capital circle and the Xiangjiang circle, Optical Fiber Media may know that no matter how hard it tries, it will not be able to replace HY's position in the imperial capital circle, so it simply takes the route of embracing all rivers.

Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, and even Wang Baoqiang's first directorial works basically have the shadow of optical fiber media behind them......

Although the optical fiber media still inevitably extracts various expenses from it in this process, and then makes profits, this is only the most basic business behavior, and no one has any reason to make irresponsible comments about the practice of optical fiber media in this kind of matter.

As the director who has cooperated with Fiber Optic Media the most in the past year, Li Mo has benefited from Fiber Optic Media in terms of distribution and publicity, and has also repaid Fiber Optic Media's support for him with the total box office of two films exceeding one billion.

Although Li Mo has already established his own Molong Media, even if he cooperates with Optical Fiber Media in the future, the intensity will not be as great as the previous two times, but Wang Changtian still decided to organize the celebration banquet of "Chinese Partner" with great fanfare in line with the idea of being kind to others and forming a good fate.

It's just that it seems that the problem with the whole thing lies in this 'fanfare'......

Because the invitation letter of Fiber Optic Media was also sent to Wang Zhongjun, chairman of HY Company......

To be honest, it's really not that Fiber Optic Media knows that HY and Li Mo don't deal with each other, and deliberately finds someone to appear in front of him and block him.

After all, HY and Optical Fiber Media are now the top two positions of private film and television media companies, and they can be regarded as having something to do with the imperial capital circle.

The so-called 'courtesy exchange' means that when one party holds a premiere or a celebration banquet, he will politely send an invitation letter to the other party and invite the other party to attend......

Of course, most of the time, the end result of this invitation is in the trash can in the office of the other party's boss.

…… There are exceptions, such as the ...... of the other party's boss secretary in the trash.

It was purely a ceremonial thing.

I've invited him, and it's not my question if he's here or not......

According to Fiber Media's estimates, HY should accept the invitation and then find a polite reason not to send someone to attend......

However, there are no absolutes in the world, but this time, HY decided to send someone to attend the celebration banquet of "Chinese Partner".

And the identity of the person who came is not low, he is the second-in-command of HY, Wang Zhonglei, who serves as the general manager.

Of course, this is not what HY is willing to send to the door to support the fiber optic media.

The key to making them change their minds is because HY has received the confirmed news that Han Shanping of China Film Group will attend this celebration banquet.

In recent times, the doubts about the decision-making of the Wang brothers have become louder and louder with the successive failures of "Tai Chi 1 Starting from Scratch" and "Tai Chi 2 Heroes Rise".

This voice also reached its peak when "Chinese Partner" topped the annual Chinese box office list (provisional data......

Although the Wang brothers have an absolute advantage in HY's shareholders, if the reputation of HY's movies and the box office continue to decline, the company's stock price will also be significantly affected.

For the Wang brothers, the company's stock price fluctuates, and the biggest loss must be their own net worth.

So for HY, "1942", which will be launched next month, has been forced to the point where it can never be defeated again.

At this time, the theatrical support from China Film has become very important to HY......

Although tonight's celebration banquet is led by Optical Fiber Media, and the main person in charge of China Film Group will also be confirmed to attend, the absolute protagonist tonight must be Li Mo, who created the box office reputation miracle of "Chinese Partner".

If Wang Zhongjun deigns to appear in this kind of place, not to mention whether other people will think that this is a loss of HY, even Wang Zhonglei will not be able to let his brother come out with this foreign appearance.

As a result, Wang Zhonglei appeared in the banquet hall of the Imperial Palace Hotel as the general manager of HY.

As the general manager of HY, although Wang Zhonglei is also a person who stomps his feet and trembles in the circle of the imperial capital, he has experienced the taste of 'being alone' in today's palace hotel.

Those who will attend tonight's celebration banquet are either artists from Optical Fiber Media, or insiders who have a close relationship with Optical Fiber Media, and the rest are also official figures invited by China Film Group......

Even if the people in front of them know Wang Zhonglei, they have to take into account the face of Fiber Optic Media, and they will not rush forward to talk to him;

As for the latter part......

Wang Zhonglei has the heart to make friends, but at this time, it is people's turn not to know who he is......

Wang Zhonglei walked around the spacious banquet hall for a small half circle, although a few came up to greet him and talk, but he never found a chance to talk to Han Shanping.

Boredom, Wang Zhonglei simply took a glass of wine and found a place to sit down in the banquet hall. While admiring the girls who came and went around, he was looking for an opportunity to go up and say hello to Han Shanping, so that his brother would come forward in a few days.

There are a lot of people who came to the celebration banquet today, not only actors and directors who have a relationship with Fiber Optic Media and China Film, but even some media reporters and agents who have been invited to enter the banquet in a grand manner.

Today's dinner can be said to be a microcosm of the entertainment industry ecosystem.

The noise, the clinking of glasses, the sound of congratulations came and went, and all kinds of voices intertwined and converged into a strange and noisy sound.

Not long ago, Wang Changtian, Han Shanping and Zong Shuai made speeches on behalf of several major investors of "Chinese Partners", and the next part of the party, if you follow the normal process, should be the time to socialize and expand your network.

Just as Wang Zhonglei was waiting with an anxious face, a graceful and tall figure suddenly walked in front of him, and also diverted his attention from Han Shanping's side slightly.

It was a young woman wearing a light blue evening dress, although from behind, the scale of this evening dress was not large, but the graceful figure of the woman swaying between the march still made Wang Zhonglei's eyes shine.

…… At the same time, it also ignited the fire in his heart.

As the heat in his heart became more and more uncontrollable, Wang Zhonglei inadvertently drank another glass of champagne, and just as he put down his wine glass and was about to get up to talk, a basin of cold water was poured down.

The woman walked into the circle of the Molong Media gang.

Although I don't know who the woman is, since the last time he shot at Li Mo during the filming of "Chinese Partner", Wang Zhonglei has been in a state of avoiding Molong Media for a long time.

This is not because he is afraid of Li Mo, but purely because Wang Zhongjun once repeatedly ordered: Before the release of "1942", there must be no moths!

Wang Zhonglei was even a little glad at this time, if it wasn't for the woman who walked into the circle of Molong Media just now, maybe he would have forgotten Wang Zhongjun's words tonight, and then delayed the business.

…………

Wang Zhonglei wouldn't know that not far behind him, there were three people who watched all his actions just now.

These three people are Wang Xiaoming and his girlfriend Yang Tianbao...... and the protagonist of today's celebration banquet - Li Mo.

The expressions on the faces of the three people were different, Li Mo was smiling lightly, Yang Tianbao seemed to be a little uneasy and afraid, and Wang Xiaoming's expression was the most complicated......

There was almost no expression on his face, just a little gloomy, but in the depths of his eyes, there was an irrepressible flame......

"Hehe, Brother Xiaoming, it seems that what you just said is not necessarily right, Mr. Wang seems to be in a good mood, and he is still in the mood to hunt for beauty......"

Although Li Mo had been smiling, if the person next to him was Zong Shuai, he would definitely be able to see that there was a flame that was almost hidden in the depths of Li Mo's eyes.

The woman Wang Zhonglei intended to talk to just now was Gu Limena.
