On August 15th, "Big Brother Tangshan" was painted, and the final box office in Xiangjiang was 6.5 million, which made Fang Menghua very happy, and when he came to see Li Ping'an, his face was full of spring breeze, "It's still my son who is amazing, it's just a pity, and I want your father to take up half of the profits!"

Li Ping'an disagreed, "The population of Xiangjiang is still too small now, and it is relatively limited, and the future development direction should still be in Hollywood." ”

Fang Menghua smiled and rubbed Li Ping'an's head, "I believe that my son will definitely dominate Hollywood in the future, your father has been staring at your books for a long time, but his mother just won't give him the right to adapt, so I'm angry with him!"

"It's not that I don't give it to my father, Uncle Zou has come several times and wants me to give him a film and television license for a few books, but the current technology can't shoot what I want at all. Li Ping'an is also very helpless, the eight major Hollywood studios at this time are eyeing the film and television adaptation rights of his novels published by Bantam Books, and the two companies of Kid Bao and Lego have also come to inquire about the doll authorization of "Transformers" many times, and Fang Menghua rejected all of them. Now Li Ping'an's career has not been fully rolled out, and when he structures the industrial chain well, these can create greater profits.

"Mom really doesn't know when what you're talking about will come true. Fang Menghua took out a few documents and handed them to Li Ping'an, "This is the copyright of a few books you asked me to buy, that Xiong Yaohua is still relatively easy to speak, and bought the film and television adaptation rights of all his novels according to the 500,000 Hong Kong dollars you said." Zha Liangyong was more difficult, and in the end I spent 1.2 million yuan to buy out the film and television adaptation rights of all his works, which still requires you to serialize a novel in Ming Pao next year before you can talk about it. As for Tolkien, who you asked me to find, originally he didn't sell the copyrights, but when he learned that you were going to buy them, and I raised the price to $6 million to get all the rights to "The Hobbit", "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Elf Diamond", because of the lack of cash, I mortgaged all the real estate in Hong Kong to HSBC. ”

"It's worth it, it's so worth it!Mom, you're awesome!" Li Ping'an kissed Fang Menghua on the face, "You'll know how valuable it is in the future." "Now there are many martial arts masters, and the awareness of copyright in the Xiangjiang film and television industry is not perfect, and when Jin Yong seals the pen and Gurung drives the crane, the copyright of their works can be sold at sky-high prices, Li Ping'an's previous life, until 2020, Jin Yong's drama is the guarantee of ratings. As for why Li Ping'an was in a hurry to buy out the copyright of all the works of John Ronald Riel Tolkien, it was entirely because this old gentleman's time was running out, and he didn't want to bargain with Tolkien's children in the future, which would be easy to cause trouble in addition to trouble.

"Mom, I want you to help me find a few people to be my secretary, a lot of my things need to be taken care of by fixed personnel, so that you can be less tired!" Li Ping'an took out three documents and handed them to Fang Menghua.

Fang Menghua was still a little moved at first, but when he finished reading the three documents, he couldn't help but smile, "Stinky boy, start thinking about women now!" looked at Li Ping'an, "Yes, you will be an adult in a few years." ”

Li Ping'an's height has now reached 1.65 meters, but his face has not fully grown. "Mom, I really want to find a few secretaries to help me!" Li Ping'an was a little embarrassed by his mother's words.

In less than a month, the three secretary candidates that Li Ping'an asked Fang Menghua to find were in place one after another.

Zhao Yazhi, who was still studying at the Catholic Chongde English Academy, still wanted to apply for the flight attendant exam after graduating next year, but Fang Menghua found her family, and Zhao Yazhi was reluctant at first after explaining her intentions, and later heard that she was going to be Li Ping'an's personal secretary, she immediately agreed.

Lin Qingxia is studying in Jinling Girls' High School at this time, she is about to graduate and she is more confused about the future, Lin Qingxia has a phobia of reading, so her reading performance has been unsatisfactory, after Fang Menghua contacted her parents, Lin Qingxia's parents are still ready to let their daughter graduate, but under Fang Menghua's persuasion, on the one hand, there is a good salary, on the other hand, Li Ping'an's reputation and age, Lin Qingxia's parents felt that there was no problem and agreed to be Li Ping'an's secretary for her, as for whether her daughter is competent, the two who have already got the money and signed the contract are not worried。

Fang Menghua was not very satisfied with Lin Fengjiao, at this time Lin Fengjiao was out of middle school and was still a dance lady, if she was not still perfect, coupled with the trust she had always had in her son Li Ping'an, Fang Menghua would not have allowed Lin Fengjiao to enter the door at all.

After Fang Menghua signed the contract with the three of them, he instructed his son Li Ping'an, "You can let these three girls be concubines in the future, but you can't marry them, with the family background of the three of them, neither your father nor I will allow them to become your big house." In the past, you were just your father's illegitimate child, and you couldn't get into the eyes of those high-ranking compounds, but now that you are out, your mother is also very pleased, and the only one who can be worthy of you is the daughter of a wealthy family. ”

On July 18, 1969, Heung Kong promulgated the Monogamy Act. However, now the rich people in Xiangjiang are still the same, and although concubines are no longer legal, for the wealthy tycoons who want to have more children and grandchildren, this bill is completely empty words, and it has no impact on them at all.

Li Ping'an was no longer able to complain, "My mother, your son is not yet an adult, so I can't think about that!"

Fang Menghua glanced at Li Ping'an angrily, "You are a little ghost, sometimes I think I was born a goblin." But I can tell you, those three girls are all very beautiful, you can't mess around, it's not good for you, and when you turn fifteen, your mother won't care about you. ”

Li Ping'an sighed, put himself on the sofa, and completely gave up persuading his mother.

On September 20, Zhao Yazhi, Lin Qingxia and Lin Fengjiao, who had already received preliminary training, stayed in Li Ping'an's mid-level villa, and the three daughters were already very familiar with each other during the days they were trained together. The three girls were waiting in the hall, Li Ping'an had not come out at this time, Zhao Yazhi was more outgoing among the three women, a little boyish, and broke the peace first, "Sister Gillian, Sister Axia, what do you say Li Ping'an looks like? I guess he must be ugly, he must be the kind that is not old and decrepit, otherwise how could he never accept interviews, not a single frontal photo has flowed out." ”

Lin Fengjiao was the oldest and sophisticated, and immediately interrupted Zhao Yazhi in a low voice, "Yazhi, don't talk nonsense, it's not good to be heard, we have to eat under people's hands, don't leave a bad impression." ”

Zhao Yazhi didn't have any malicious intent, but it was funny to complain about the idol, and she didn't take Lin Fengjiao's words seriously, she just spit out her little fragrant tongue and stopped talking.
