Chapter 1039: A joke with the world
There is more Xu Qinning's house, which is full of vitality. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
When Cheng Xiaoyu, Xia Shamo and Duanmu Linsha ate together, the table was always relatively quiet, and the three of them spoke softly, even if Wang Ou and Chen Haoran came over, they didn't feel lively, but it was different when Xu Qinning came.
As soon as she came, the atmosphere was particularly active, Xu Qinning said triumphantly: "I prompted the listing of Shanghai United Cinema, and now it has become a public-private joint theater chain, and then I acquired 'Xingmei', and now Xingmei United Cinema is the largest cinema chain in China...... And I'm the biggest shareholder. ”
At this moment, Xu Qinning is preaching great achievements in front of Cheng Xiaoyu, she is generous, straightforward, does not play scheming, occasionally shows her innocent side, and is not pretentious at all, even if Xia Shamo actually does not dislike her at all from the heart.
Cheng Xiaoyu knew that Xu Qinning did this for him, but he felt that Xu Qinning had done a fairly wise business, of course, if it was unprofitable, Xu Jiacheng might not allow his daughter to do this.
Cheng Xiaoyu ate a xiaolong soup dumpling wrapped by Xia Shamo himself, the rich soup and the fragrant minced crab roe explode in his mouth, which made him extremely satisfied, and after swallowing, he said: "Recently, the growth rate of the domestic film market industry is improving, and you can only make money and lose money when you buy it, but Xiao Ning, you must not only pay attention to expanding the number of theaters and screens, but also pay attention to the upgrading of theaters, but now you can slow it down, and next year you can build new IMAX and 3D theaters across the country in advance....."
Xu Qinning didn't have done his homework on the theater chain, and asked a little suspiciously: "I've heard of IMAX and 3D?" but it seems that there are very few IMAX and 3D screening halls in the United States, and there are not too many film sources, so they are not mainstream at all..... Isn't it appropriate to do this?"
Cheng Xiaoyu took a sip of soy milk and said, "Yes, it's not mainstream now, but it will become mainstream...... Trust me!" Then Cheng Xiaoyu couldn't help but say, "Summer, the buns you made are so delicious...... My colleagues are now clamoring to come to the house for dinner every day and even threaten me with resignation......"
Xia Shamo smiled slightly and said, "Then you can invite them to come! Just tell me the number......
Duanmu Linsha and Xu Qinning are quite close because of Su Yuxi's relationship, Duanmu Linsha asked, "Xiao Ning came to the United States this time to acquire AMC, right?"
Xu Qinning nodded and said: "Well, I am negotiating now, but in fact, I only need to grasp the trend of the negotiation process, and I will not participate in it at present, and I will participate when I need to make a decision in the end! So, in fact, I came here to eat and drink!" Now Dong Yaohui is negotiating with AMC's senior management in New York, in fact, he began to negotiate mergers and acquisitions with AMC's shareholders and management in the second half of last year, but it was not until this month that the information report of the project was confirmed by the National Development and Reform Commission, after all, Xingmei United Cinemas is not a completely private company, and the process will be relatively slow......."
Cheng Xiaoyu interjected: "You guys are already very fast, I think it is not your father to help, you have to wait for the approval of the National Development and Reform Commission, and then it will take a year or two to start negotiations with AMC, AMC I have also studied, although it has been losing money in recent years, but the main reason is that the debt ratio is too high, not that there is a problem with the management team...... If it goes well, I can just take the opportunity to add IMAX and 3D screening halls!"
Xu Qinning saw Cheng Xiaoyu mentioning it again and again, so he asked: "Are you so optimistic about IMAX and 3D?"
Cheng Xiaoyu blinked mysteriously at Xu Qinning, and then said, "Of course! Because this craze will be started by me." ”
Xu Qinning rolled her eyes directly at Cheng Xiaoyu and was speechless.
Although she made a mocking expression of distrust of Cheng Xiaoyu, in fact, she didn't consider whether Cheng Xiaoyu's judgment was accurate at all, she had already made up her mind to vigorously promote the construction of IMAX and 3D screening halls, making money was not important to her at all, even if Cheng Xiaoyu miscalculated and lost money, it didn't matter, as long as he had fun.
Regarding the matter of the theater line, Xia Shamo couldn't speak, Duanmu Linsha was helping Cheng Xiaoyu manage 'Xichu' recently, so that she knew something, a few people chatted a few more words about the American theater chain, and after breakfast, Xu Qinning put the dishes and chopsticks down and asked, "Why do you still live in a rented house?"
Cheng Xiaoyu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Is there any problem?"
Xu Qinning said angrily: "This is a big problem! This time I may have lived for a long time, I am not used to living in a rented house, and besides, your career in the United States is not small now, you have to buy a house, don't underestimate this matter, the house is an admission ticket for high society, which is the same in the United States and in China...... When you come to a place, you have to integrate into the local society, and I tell you not to look at the Americans who talk about freedom and equality, in fact, the rich people in the United States are the most powerful ......"
"The Americans I know are obsessed with dinners, clothes, travel, restaurants, communities, and art. They like to buy what I think is a tattered piece of contemporary art, pretend to appreciate it, and hang it all over the house and tell you about the work of the person and the auction they got from it, when in fact they are just secretly hoping that it will go up in value. ”
Xu Qinning has had a sharp understanding of snobbery almost since he was conscious!
She could clearly discern social status, money, taste, religion, enviable learning, and all sorts of other rankings of status. When she was a little girl, she could feel who was richer than whom, who was poorer than her family, and whose status was no worse than hers.
She could tell at a glance where the jealousy of others was, and when the men gathered in her villa to discuss the state of the world, she soon noticed that the richest or most powerful man spoke the most, or spoke the most authoritatively, and conspicuously.
For the set of high society, only Xu Qinning knows best.
As for Xia Shamo, for her, the fashion and drill camp covered by her social status were too mysterious, and she didn't want to bother to understand it.
Duanmu Linsha is a typical middle-class mentality, she is definitely not a snob, but she is very aware of the existence of snobbery, and she can protect herself well from being hurt. But she prefers to make friends with women who are also kind and compassionate.
Cheng Xiaoyu actually doesn't like to socialize, because he doesn't need those resources to be able to thrive, but he has to satisfy Xu Qinning's shopping desire, so he hurriedly said: "Okay!
Xu Qinning stretched out her hand directly to Cheng Xiaoyu, and then said confidently: "What's okay! I'm going to buy a house, I have to buy Beverly Hills! I have no money, you give me money." ”
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't hesitate at all, got up and took the wallet, Xu Qinning was willing to ask for something, that was whose honor, remembering that she was robbed of a mobile phone by her when she met him for the first time, Cheng Xiaoyu's heart also had a ripple.
Cheng Xiaoyu told Xu Qinning his card and password, he has been in the United States for so long, and he has also considered this problem, but he is a person who is afraid of trouble, and he has always been very busy, so he has no time to look at the house......
Xu Qinning took it unceremoniously and said, "Strive for us to celebrate the New Year in your new house...... Lin Sha, you also ask your parents if they would like to come to Los Angeles, and let them see that you are actually doing well without studying......
Cheng Xiaoyu remembered that the Lunar New Year was approaching, and the atmosphere of the Lunar New Year in the United States was not strong, and he was busy making money and climbing in his own direction, forgetting such trivial things.....
Thanks to Xu Qinning's reminder at this time, he remembered, Cheng Xiaoyu glanced at Xu Qinning gratefully, and hurriedly said: "Yes, take all your relatives, as well as Haoran's brother and Da Zhuang's parents...... Everyone was lively and lively together. ”
