Chapter 227: Rules
ps: The first knee of 2018 is sent, ask for tickets!
Jiang Ran was noncommittal to Ah Qing's words, just nodded and followed Ah Qing into a large room.
After Jiang Ran followed Ah Qing into the house, he glanced around and found that there were only two men inside, and there was no scene of bodyguards standing around Jiang Ran as he thought.
Seeing Ah Qing walking in with Jiang Ran, the two people inside also stood up together, and the older middle-aged man in them smiled and enthusiastically stretched out his hand to greet him.
"Mr. Jiang, I took the liberty of disturbing your and A-Qing's gathering today. ”
Jiang Ran didn't expect that the legendary underworld boss would have such a side, and he was slightly surprised in his heart, but his face was silent and naturally reached out to hold the other party's outstretched hand.
Jiang Ran said with a smile: "Mr. Xiang is polite. Speaking of which, you are also a senior in the film and television industry, and it is my honor to be able to communicate with you. ”
Although Jiang Ran was enthusiastic on his face, the meaning of his words was very clear, he just treated the other party as his peers and seniors in the film and television industry.
Xiang Huaqiang didn't know if he understood Jiang Ran's meaning, the enthusiasm on his face remained unchanged, and he continued: "Mr. Jiang is polite. I don't dare to call myself a senior in front of you. If Mr. Jiang doesn't see the outside, doesn't dislike me for being useless, and calls me Brother Qiang in the face, it will be the greatest honor for me. ”
Xiang Huaqiang is a child of the Xiang family in the final analysis, and with the support of New Ngee An, one of the most prominent associations in Hong Kong, he seems to be very active when talking to Jiang Ran.
After Jiang Ran listened to Xiang Huaqiang's words, his eyes shrank slightly, and then he glanced at the other party, and saw that he was looking at himself with a smile on his face, "This person is not simple." Jiang Ran sighed in his heart.
Jiang Ran's mind turned, and the smile on his face remained unchanged, "What does Brother Qiang say, with your nearly ten years of experience in the Hong Kong film industry, it is a matter of course to call you brother." ”
Jiang Ran didn't hesitate too much, and agreed to the other party's words casually.
"Haha!" Xiang Huaqiang was obviously very happy with Jiang Ran's reflection, "Ah Ran, I just like a cheerful person like you." Although Ah Ran, you may not care too much, but I still want to say that I still have a little thin noodles on the ground in Hong Kong, and everyone also gives face. ”
Xiang Huaqiang was very enthusiastic about Jiang Ran's promise of taking care of everything, which made Jiang Ran even more bottomless in his heart, as the saying goes, if you have nothing to do, you will either be a traitor or a thief. It's a bit extreme, but you can't deny that there is some truth to it.
Therefore, Jiang Ran was secretly vigilant in his heart, and only smiled at Xiang Huaqiang's words and did not answer.
Xiang Huaqiang's reaction to Jiang Ran was not surprising, it was not long after the incident with An Le and Huang Bingqiang last year. Everyone knows that although Jiang Ran is not a person on the road, he has an amazing influence in the police force and the media, coupled with a security team composed of veteran police officers and military personnel that has grown to nearly 200 people, as well as strong financial strength.
Don't easily provoke Jiang Ran and Ranfeng Group, which has become a consensus in the entire Hong Kong Road. With such strength, Jiang Ran certainly would not easily accept Huaqiang's promise. You must know that in this world, some people's advantages and benefits are not so easy to take advantage of.
Xiang Huaqiang didn't mind Jiang Ran's reaction, but instead introduced him to the young man who had been standing behind him and had not opened his mouth.
"Ah Ran, this is Chen Yaoxin. Very good young man, Ah Qing must understand. ”
"Ah Ran, Ah Xin helped me a lot in Huang Bingqiang's matter last year. Although Jiang Ran knew about this, since he spoke to Hua Qiang, Ah Qing didn't mind mentioning it again, it was better to sell Chen Yaoxin.
Jiang Ran looked at Chen Yaoxin when he heard this, this was a young man who looked about the same age as Jiang Ran, although he had been standing there without speaking, he looked very peaceful, but a trace of impatience and dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes from time to time, which still reflected his character.
"Mr. Chen, hello!" Although Jiang Ran didn't want to get in touch with these Taoist characters too much, since he had met, he didn't want to offend these people easily, so he didn't wait for the other party to speak, and took the initiative to greet with a smile.
Chen Yaoxin was obviously very satisfied with Jiang Ran's attitude, and the smile on his face began to become sincere, and he bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Jiang, hello! ”
"Last time Huang Bingqiang, I would like to thank Mr. Chen for your cooperation, I have not thanked you in person, I am very sorry. Jiang Ran's words were very sincere.
"Where, last time, everyone took what they needed, mutual benefit, I can't say who helped whom, let alone thanks. "Chen Yaoxin can become a talker, with hundreds of brothers under his command, his mind is naturally clear, although he is unruly, he will not be uninteresting and really take it in front of Jiang Ran.
The four of them sat down on the sofa and chatted, with Ah Qing in the middle, and both parties deliberately paying attention, several people chatted quite well, at least on the surface it seemed to be very compatible, and a burst of laughter could be heard in the room from time to time.
With Jiang Ran, a big figure in the Hong Kong film industry, the topic is naturally indispensable to the film and television industry.
"Ah Ran, is Longhubao Company your industry?" asked Xiang Huaqiang with a casual smile.
With the connections of the Xiang brothers, he naturally knows the truth of Longhubao Company very well, and he just wants to draw an introduction to the topic.
Xiang Huaqiang knew that it didn't mean that other people also knew, so Chen Yaoxin looked at Jiang Ran in surprise and asked: "Longhubao Company is actually Mr. Jiang's industry? Many of my brothers are staunch fans of Longhubao." Mr. Jiang's vision is good. Hey, hey!"
Jiang Ran glanced at Chen Yaoxin funny, automatically ignored the different meaning of his words, and had no intention of concealing it, and explained with a smile: "Longhubao is indeed my industry, because of the business, it is not included in the Ranfeng Group, so it is not known to most people. ”
Xiang Huaqiang looked at Jiang Ran, and then asked tentatively: "Oh, Ah Ran, are you afraid that the Dragon, Tiger and Leopard Company will affect the image of Ranfeng Company?"
As he spoke, he continued without waiting for Jiang Ran to answer: "If Ah Ran, you have concerns about this, I don't know if you have any ideas of selling the company's shares? ”
When Jiang Ran heard this, he knew that Xiang Huaqiang should have put some effort into it beforehand, but Jiang Ran had no idea of selling the company. Therefore, he looked at Hua Qiang, and then said with an apologetic smile: "Brother Qiang, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, I have no intention of selling the company." ”
Looking at Xiang Huaqiang, whose face was a little gloomy, Jiang Ran continued: "When this company was established, it was originally to make up for the shortcomings of Ranfeng Group in the film and television media business, but now the company is just on the right track and has become my core industry, so I can only resist Brother Qiang's favor." ”
Jiang Ran said with a smile, but the rest of his eyes kept looking at Xiang Huaqiang, seeing that his face was a little gloomy at first, but after Jiang Ran finished speaking, his face had completely returned to normal, and he couldn't see his inner thoughts at all.
Xiang Huaqiang was indeed a little uncomfortable in his heart after Jiang Ran directly rejected him. After all, in Hong Kong, there are still very few times when he is directly rejected like this.
However, after thinking about the eldest brother Xiang Huayan's evaluation of Jiang Ran and his security team, Xiang Huaqiang immediately suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and turned to seek other interests.
"Oh, that's a shame. Xiang Huaqiang shook his head, "Since the dragon, tiger and leopard are your core industry, I don't think much about it." ”
"However, Ah Ran, if I need actors from Dragon, Tiger and Leopard in the future, or when I need the support of the theater chain, Ah Ran, you have to give my brother a face. ”
Xiang Huaqiang is very smart, Jiang Ran just rejected one of his requests, he immediately changed things, Jiang Ran couldn't refuse himself twice in a row, it would be too faceless.
Jiang Ran did not intend to refuse Xiang Huaqiang's request, he knew that in the next ten years, it would be inevitable for the Hong Kong underworld to enter the film market.
However, even so, he still hopes that at the beginning of Xiang Huaqiang's entry into the film market, he will make some rules clear.
"Brother Qiang wants actors, whether it is Longhubao or Ranfeng Group, there is no problem. As for theaters, that's not a problem, and even your films, I don't have to ask for revenue from the distribution rights. ”
"However, whether it is an actor or a theater chain, I hope to go through formal channels, and the remuneration and safety of actors must be guaranteed by Brother Qiang. It's not that I don't trust Brother Qiang, but that there are indeed some things in Hong Kong now, which are more worrying. ”
After Jiang Ran finished speaking, the smile on his face was put away, and he looked at Xiang Huaqiang seriously.
