Chapter 104: The Ji Family's Mansion
And when Su Yiyang and Feng Tan were delving into the mystery of the year, it was a completely different situation for "those people" hidden behind them.
The competition between them seems to have never stopped.
Jingyao Grand Theater is located in S Province, which is a unique landscape resort, and is also a well-known landmark building in Chibei City, the provincial capital.
In a word, the popularity is quite high.
However, the Jingyao Grand Theatre is indeed worthy of such popularity, but in terms of the design of the building itself, it has been extremely successful. The main structure of the theater is surrounded by a crystal shape made of beautiful and transparent one-way glass, and the entrance is surrounded by a pool of crystal clear lake water, which is planted with delicate water lilies of clear water hibiscus, and there are large areas of green space, trees and flowers on the periphery.
Not to mention, in addition to the significance of scenic spots, this is also a pure land in the field of art.
When it comes to the highest holy place in the minds of all art workers, Jingyao Grand Theatre is definitely the number one, and all major theater troupes across the country are proud to perform at Jingyao Grand Theatre, and regard being able to perform here as a major measure of the industry's standards.
If a repertoire goes on a national tour to this stop in Province S and is fortunate enough to perform at the Jingyao Grand Theater, it will be a very high affirmation and proof for this troupe and this repertoire.
What's more, if the two troupes were fighting openly and secretly with each other in private, one of them sneered and said, "I heard that your pillar is a famous actor?
The other one will definitely fight with his lips, and immediately shoot back: "What's the matter, your group is so powerful, have you sung about Jingyao's New Year's performance season, haven't you sung what kind of big cloves of garlic are you putting here with me?"
Because of the Jingyao Grand Theater behind it, the Ji family has a stable status from generation to generation and is firmly one of the leaders in the Peking Opera industry.
After all, the hard work of the Ji family for generations is here, from Ji Munan's grandfather to manage the Jingyao Grand Theater, and then to his father Ji Guangfan taking over, so that this theater can be carried forward in his hands. Nowadays, the various facilities of Jingyao Grand Theatre have become quite authoritative and perfect, and its position in the industry is also quite stable.
It can be said that as long as the Jingyao Grand Theater is still there, it is impossible for the Ji family to fall.
And mortals are greedy and not satisfied, after not being satisfied with the market expansion of S Province, Ji Guangfan began to hit the idea of hitting the idea of B Province, which is also the performance market, which is also the reason why he instructed Ji Munan to open the private theater troupe Liyuan Tang in Province B - on the bright side, this is the sudden small interest of the son of the family, but in fact, it is a test of the Ji family's desire to expand the business territory.
The Ji family's mansion is also in province S, which is not far from province B, only a few hours by car.
But no matter how close it is, after all, it is considered a province, and it is a bit of a toss to go back, so except for special days such as New Year's holidays, Ji Munan will only go back at the end of each month, report to his old man many reasons for the recent development of Liyuan Hall, agree on the next development route and other details, and have a long-lost reunion dinner with his family.
This is a small habit that Ji Munan and Ji Guangfan have agreed upon, so this time Old Man Ji personally called and called Ji Dashao back in a hurry, and he couldn't even wait for the weekend, presumably the situation was already very urgent.
So, what's going on?
When driving, Ji Munan lightly pressed his fingers on the steering wheel and couldn't help but fall into thought.
From a few days ago, when Ji Munan suddenly received a call from his old man, asking him to immediately take the performance project of "Dream" to talk to Li's Canran Group, he felt that something was not quite right.
ββOver the years, the overall development direction of Liyuan Hall has been well controlled by Ji Guangfan, but the major and minor affairs within the troupe, from business planning to the development of performance repertoire, are almost all decided by Ji Munan himself.
He only needs to report the results directly to his family after the matter is settled, and it is the first time that he has been arranged with such a tough attitude to do what he must do.
At that time, Ji Munan was looking through the project that was returned by Zhong Ziyi, and Ji Guangfan made a phone call directly to the office of Liyuan Hall, and every word was concise and to the point, and the words were majestic and undeniable.
"Mu Nan, you take the project of "Dream" to Li Xuanci, no matter how you knock it, you must talk about cooperation. β
After hanging up the phone, Ji Munan didn't think much about it, and directly asked his subordinate planning department to revise the performance plan, and handed it over to Li Qianjin of Canran Group the next day. The subsequent negotiations were smooth, and the Canran Group gave a clear intention to cooperate in just three days, and when he reported these things to Ji Guangfan, his old man directly asked him to go home.
Then, it was this sudden trip to S Province.
On weekdays, the highway is not a traffic jam, Ji Munan drove smoothly all the way, he rolled the window open, and the wind through the window was mixed with the faint smell of dust in the air, and the messy bangs on his forehead were slightly raised.
At this moment, Ji Munan was squinting slightly, carefully reviewing the causes and consequences of this matter.
The development of the project "Dream" went to the Zhong family, and by the way, he won over Su Yiyang behind him, these are what Ji Munan meant. The performance market in Province B is so big, and when it comes to Su Dashao's status in the performance industry of Province B, it is completely an insurmountable mountain in the minds of rising stars, and it has an unattainable status.
As a last resort, Ji Munan didn't want to offend him, but unfortunately many of them had little effect, and now he was forced to the opposite side.
This "Dream" is not the first time that Ji Munan has handed Su Yiyang an olive branch.
As early as when Su Dashao returned to China a few years ago and had just begun to take over the huge industry of the Su Group, Ji Munan took a fancy to the power of the Su family and wanted to cooperate with it. Since he took the initiative to throw an olive branch, Ji Munan handed over the stepping stone, of course, it was the kind of mutually beneficial piece of fat that could be fished out with full oil and water.
He thought that anyone who is a businessman has no reason to get along with money, not to mention that Liyuantang has a very good reputation in Province B, and there is such a tough backer as the Ji family behind him, and many friends and roads have always been the winning rule on the business battlefield, no matter what Su Yiyang said, there was no reason to refuse.
But that cooperation was rejected by Su Dashao for no reason.
All of Ji Munan's negotiation skills were useless, and the benefits given seemed to be completely out of Su Yiyang's eyes, so that in the end, Ji Munan was completely confused, and he was a little puzzled - he and Su Yiyang were far from resentment and hatred, and they had not even met before, how could they offend Su Dashao like that.
And then this is not the end, this time the Ji family originally wanted to use Zhong Ziyi, a stupid boy, as a springboard to take advantage of the official tourism resources in the hands of the Zhong family, but it was also mixed up by Su Yiyang's words, and he didn't calculate that Zhong Ziyi didn't say anything, and completely cut off half of the Ji family's way to develop the performance market in Province B.
So much so that the more Ji Munan thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, and he really couldn't swallow this evil fire.
It is not bad for Ji Munan to covet the power of the Su family, and it is also good to want to win over Su Yiyang, but in all fairness, the Su family and the Ji family are evenly matched, one is the leader of the performance industry, and the other is the master of the Peking Opera industry.
Especially now that Su Yiyang is not doing live performances, but turning around to toss the Peking Opera Small Theater, in Ji Dashao's opinion, this is ** naked slapping his face, too much.
Ji Mu Nan said in his heart, what's the matter, Su Yiyang, I came to Province B to develop the performance market, and I gave you three points of thin noodles and took the initiative to get acquainted, but you didn't give a chance at all, I asked three times to hand over an olive branch, and wanted to stand together and make money, but you ignored it. And then on the other hand, I have to fight for my turf, grabbing a job to this extent, it's like deliberately scolding others.
Is this something that normal human beings can do, when we are not ashamed of the Ji family?
Since you Su Dashao are so immoral, then the Ji family has no reason to continue to let it go, for a strong opponent, if you can't become an alliance, it will naturally be a thorn in the flesh, and you have to try your best to get him out.
Thinking of this, Ji Munan's thinking has gradually become clear.
Presumably Ji Guangfan instructed himself to get acquainted with the Li family, this time the Ji family thought of a place, wanting to use the power of the Li family to shake the mountain in front of them and regain the control of the Peking Opera market in Province B.
At this time, Ji Munan didn't know that he had only guessed a small part.
Su Yiyang's refusal several times was not for nothing, and Ji Guangfan's actions were not only because of the competition for the market in Province B, but also because the grievances and entanglements between the Ji family and the Su family were far more than what appeared on the surface, those deeper things have been covered for more than ten years......
Right now, it can't be hidden anymore.
After a few thoughts, the car had already entered the city and drove all the way to the mouth of the alley, Ji Munan retracted his thoughts, found a parking space to park the car, and then paced in the direction of the Ji family's mansion.
The Ji family is one of the best developed Peking Opera families, and the ancestral industry is preserved quite completely, unlike the Beiping Yue family in the war and fell to the residential sale, the Ji family mansion is still located in a secluded courtyard in the alley, and it is just an inconspicuous small courtyard house from the outside.
The courtyard is planted with flowers and a small piece of green bamboo, and an artificial pool is specially opened at the entrance position, in which there are a few koi fish swimming wantonly, and the antique fragrance reveals a bit of elegance.
Ji Munan stopped at the entrance of the courtyard, then pushed open the door and swayed in slowly.
Old Man Ji was originally watering the peonies planted in the yard, and when he heard the footsteps, he knew that it was his own stinky boy who had returned, and before he turned around, he had already opened his mouth first.
"When will your grinding temperament change, why did you come back so late?"
