Chapter 5: DreamWorks

After sending Li Xiaolong away, Li Ping'an asked the maid to clean up the martial arts training ground, and at the same time asked the housekeeper to make a new Wing Chun wooden stake as soon as possible. In the evening, Fang Menghua, who had worked all day, returned to the villa and hugged his son Li Ping'an for the first time.

"Ping'an, I heard that you met a man named Li Zhenfan today, which is very good, saving you from staying at home every day, and you don't look like a child at all. Fang Menghua pinched Li Ping'an's little face dotingly.

Li Ping'an made a bitter face, "Mom, how many times have I said it, I'm different from other children!"

"Also, my son is the reincarnation of an immortal!" Fang Menghua quipped, and then asked someone to prepare dinner.

During the meal, Li Ping'an began to discuss with his mother Fang Menghua, "The Li Xiaolong who came today is a talent, and I want to open a film company with him in Xiangjiang." ”

Fang Menghua sandwiched a piece of chicken thigh meat for his son, "But I heard that he is already going to sign up for your father's Shaw Brothers!"

"It's okay, Dad doesn't pay much attention to him, it's just that Uncle Zou is more positive. Li Ping'an's face didn't matter.

"Then you can sign him into the company, why bother to open a company with him?" Fang Menghua began to calculate.

Li Ping'an sighed, "Mom, how many times have I told you, don't be as calculating as your father, always picking the door so hard, if he hadn't relied on Uncle Zou very much, Uncle Zou might not have been able to get the ten percent of the shares, and he would have left a long time ago." Your son and I will earn more wealth in the future, and you must learn to be generous!"

Fang Menghua looked at his son with a funny face, "That's also safe and you can do it, and your mother has no other skills, so she will guard these for you, so that your father and their side can't interfere." ”

After the meal, Li Ping'an began to make tea for his mother with a special technique, "Mom, how much money do we have now?"

Fang Menghua took the teacup and took a sip, his entire eyebrows were stretched, the tea was cultivated by Li Ping'an with his true qi, very rare, and only Fang Menghua could taste it. "Now all the assets should add up to more than 100 million US dollars, but there is not much cash, most of them are company shares. Last year, I acquired three small film companies in the United States and merged them together, and also named the company DreamWorks according to your requirements, and now DreamWorks has a relatively complete distribution capacity, mainly distributing some independent films, but it also makes a profit of about 200,000 US dollars a year, and now our most valuable is PolyGram's shares, followed by your book publishing company, the reason why there is not much cash is because most of them have bought land and real estate in Xiangjiang according to your requirements, and we have now built six large theaters, all of which are managed by your father。 We now have more than $2.8 million in cash. ”

"Mom, you go to register a company tomorrow, it's called Xiangjiang DreamWorks Film Company, and at the same time go to my dad and tell him that I won't withdraw the theater from Shaw Brothers Cinemas, but I have to borrow someone from him to make a movie, and the movie I make will also be released on Shaw Brothers. ”

After dinner, Fang Menghua left the villa and went to Villa No. 2 Repulse Bay purchased by Shao Yifu to rest, now Fang Menghua has three days a week to live with Shao Yifu, and the rest of the time will come back to accompany his son, after all, Shao Yifu is not short of confidants as a big man. Shao Yifu will also take three or four days a month to come to Li Ping'an, Shao Yifu is very superstitious, thinking that staying with his children for a long time will affect the luck, so he is not very close to his children.

A month later, Li Xiaolong visited Li Ping'an again, according to the prescription, he spent all his savings in addition to taking medicine and eating this month, and the real estate he bought in Seattle was also sold, which shows how much money Li Xiaolong spent on medicine in this month, after all, Li Ping'an's prescription cost nearly one million Hong Kong dollars for twenty years of old ginseng, and the million Hong Kong dollars at this time can buy seven or eight thousand-foot houses in Xiangjiang, which is still Li Xiaolong entrusted to a South Korean friend to purchase on behalf of him, otherwise he may not be able to buy it if he has money。

Li Ping'an saw Li Xiaolong, who was recovering from a serious illness, nodded slightly, "It's okay, the medicine is not in vain, now you can change to the next prescription, and continue to take the medicine for two months." ”

Li Xiaolong's face was full of bitterness, and he spread his hands, "I have sold all the real estate in the United States, and my family has come to Xiangjiang, and now I am shy in my pocket, can I stop this medicine?"

Li Ping'an looked at Li Xiaolong with a smile, "I can help you advance this money first, and it will be counted in the company's shares." ”

Li Xiaolong looked surprised, "What company?"

"Xiangjiang DreamWorks Film Company, you have a two-tier share, and the salary is calculated separately. Li Ping'an's tone was firm.

Li Xiaolong touched his nose and was a little embarrassed, "But I have already promised Zou Wenhuai of the Shaw Brothers that I will sign into the Shaw Brothers to star in the movie." It's not that Li Xiaolong thinks that Li Ping'an's little Zheng is too unreliable, but as a person who practices martial arts, he must be trustworthy and moral.

Li Ping'an didn't care, "It's not that the contract hasn't been signed yet! You don't have to go there, I'll just talk to Uncle Zou later." ”

Li Xiaolong could only reluctantly agree, but his heart was joyful, after all, he was generally interested in making movies, and what he wanted to do most at this time was to be able to learn advanced martial arts with Li Ping'an.

After Li Xiaolong signed the contract prepared by Li Ping'an in advance, he immediately stared at Li Ping'an with an expectant expression, "When can I learn martial arts from you as a teacher?"

Li Ping'an was silent for a while, and when he saw that Li Xiaolong began to become panicked, he felt a little funny, "Even if you apprentice, I will only teach you an ancient method of Wing Chun, I will teach you the ancient method of Wing Chun, you can only teach your children, and your children can only teach your grandchildren, and so on, otherwise I will take back everything I taught you! Also, you can't tell a third person about the ancient method of Wing Chun that I taught you, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" In the end, Li Ping'an was already full of voice.

Li Xiaolong wiped the sweat on his head, and began to swear, "I will definitely do it, and I will never disobey!" The momentum on Li Ping'an's body just now made him almost breathless, and a thick killing intent also hit his heart. In his previous life, although the master Li Ping'an followed could not be regarded as a demon demon, he was also very evil, and Li Ping'an followed the old Taoist and really killed a lot of people, although most of them were out of self-defense, but the killing aura accumulated over the past few hundred years was comparable to a demon venerable.

When Li Xiaolong calmed down, Li Ping'an took out a script and handed it to Li Xiaolong, and Li Xiaolong sat aside and began to read it carefully. Li Xiaolong made a lot of films when he was in the United States, and he can still see one or two about the quality of a script, strictly speaking, Li Xiaolong is not a native of Xiangjiang, after all, he was born in San Francisco, California, and his nationality is also American.

After reading the script, Li Xiaolong couldn't help but exclaim, "This Tangshan brother is really exciting, I like the role of Zheng Chaoan very much, by the way, what are you going to do with the director, actors and other filming crews?"

Li Ping'an smiled mysteriously, "Of course you need to ask for help from the Shaw Family." ”
