Chapter Ninety-Four: A group mockery was opened
The size of the Bluebird Film Studio is a bit out of place with the concept of a "studio," and the refurbishment of the six-story apartment would have been more than enough to fit even the entire New York City City crew. www.biquge.info In addition to the editing room, special effects room, recording room, creation room, archives room and other functional areas, it has also deliberately opened up a considerable space to build an entertainment room, whether the equipment used for work or entertainment is the best at present, which not only ensures the efficiency of the work but also ensures the welfare of employees.
The film studio is newly built, Liang Baoguang naturally wants to have a party to celebrate, the first thing to look at in the entertainment circle is capital, which he is confident that will not be worse than those so-called entertainment tycoons, and the second fight is networking, and networking needs to be accumulated again and again. The opening celebration party is a good platform, and he disdains to use the way to hype up scandals, but it is understandable that the company's opening is lively, and no matter how vicious the reporter is, it is difficult to say that he is hyping up the news about himself for the box office of the movie, even if he really thinks so in his heart.
"Pulling people from Los Angeles to New York, you're really a toss-up. "Hollywood's home base is in Los Angeles, and most of the major music labels in the United States are concentrated there, so the city of angels is widely recognized as the entertainment capital of the world. Natalie Portman and other people who were invited to the party were almost all in the film industry, and their main activities were usually on the West Coast, and this time they deliberately flew across most of the United States in order to attend the party, "Can't you just find a hotel in Los Angeles, do you have to get a party in Manhattan?"
"Didn't you just start a company and want to show off? Liang Baoguang is younger than Natalie Portman, and his studies in the psychology department of Harvard University's Faculty of Humanities are also at the back, so he often shows a kind of person-oriented attitude, and in fact he does enjoy the feeling of being taken care of.
The venue of the party is in the small building of the Blue Bird Film Studio, Liang Baoguang himself has always said that it is a small building, but Natalie Portman does not feel small at all under the look, the spacious and atmospheric space layout and simple but not simple interior and exterior decoration are definitely spent a lot of money, not to mention that the location of this whole house is 83rd Street in the Upper West Side, "There is indeed a reason to show off, tell me the bottom, how much did this building cost to rent?"
After all, the cost of buying an apartment on the Upper West Side is too high, and investing a lot of money in real estate when the company's future is uncertain is something that only laymen will do, and in this extraordinary period of the housing market panic subprime mortgage crash, normal people will not eat old real estate at a high price. However, they are all wrong, Liang Baoguang is not a person who plays cards according to common sense, otherwise it would be impossible to make so many profits with the borrowed principal in his hand, and this house is really bought by him.
"If someone asks me, I'll definitely avoid talking about it, but if you ask me, I'll be honest, about this number. Liang Baoguang raised eight fingers, and in the Celestial Empire, the gesture that only requires one hand requires two hands in the United States, while the gesture that represents eight in the Celestial Empire means the letter L in the United States.
"Eight million rent for a few years, three years?" Natalie Portman had the idea of buying a house in New York, and she still had some idea of the nearby housing prices, but unfortunately the housing prices in the area she fancied were too high for her to accept. once said that she would never accept the role of a commercial movie, so even if she is very popular and has a good reputation, she will not receive an invitation with a high salary, and counting on a literary film with a salary of two or three million, she doesn't know that she can only buy a house in Manhattan in the Year of the Monkey.
"I've already bought this place, and it's about 80 million if you don't count the house and the renovation and equipment. Liang Baoguang shrugged.
"I actually bought it!" Natalie Portman couldn't help but be stunned, spending more than $80 million to buy such an apartment is definitely a big deal, but when Liang Baoguang spoke, her tone was similar to someone else's saying that she bought a hot dog on the side of the road, and then she felt that the price seemed to be a bit of a problem, "The housing price here shouldn't be only that, right?"
There is also a difference between the Upper West Side and the Upper West Side, the houses on Eighty-third Street facing the Hudson River have the highest prices, and they are not embarrassed to bargain with others without two or three hundred million, and the housing prices on the side of the Museum of Natural Science and Central Park are the second, and they also cost two or three hundred million dollars to make a foundation. Liang Baoguang's film studio is just in the middle of the two sides, and the apartment is sandwiched between a commercial building, and the many shops on both sides make the traffic situation very bad in this area, and it is particularly noisy, and the houses are in a north-south direction, which affects the lighting, so it is normal to sell cheaper.
"The seller should have done a loss-making business elsewhere, I saw that he was in urgent need of money and suppressed the price, and the old guy asked me for 1.5 billion yuan, but I stopped and slashed him. Knowing that the other party was in a hurry, it would be too stupid for Liang Baoguang not to take the opportunity to lower the price, and the money in his hand was not blown by the wind.
"Knowing that people are in a hurry to use money and crazy to lower prices, you are taking advantage of people's danger. Natalie Portman said.
"It is impossible to own such an apartment by the poor, and the urgent need for money must be due to losses elsewhere, and that huge loss must have been caused by making the wrong investment in order to make more money. Obviously, you can live a rich life by collecting rent, but you still feel dissatisfied and want to make more money, and in this case, the investment has failed to the point of selling the house, which shows that the guy is not only greedy but also stupid, and I should be grateful to me for buying his house, right?" If I don't take over, it is a question of whether the real estate investment company that runs the cooperative apartment can give 50 million, let alone wait for the bank to intervene, and those guys who eat people and don't spit out bones may wait for the old man to commit suicide with his family, and then go through the recycling process. ”
"Listening to you, how do you feel like a savior, where did so much money come from?" Yun Jingyi is good as the chief financial officer of NEE New Energy, but with that salary, she can't take out so much money for her son to squander, and it is unlikely that she will embezzle the company's funds, and she doesn't believe that money from the wrong way dares to spend such a blatant and high-profile spending.
"I earned it myself. Now that the project has been stopped, Liang Baoguang doesn't want to talk about it anymore, and it is easy to be hated for showing off his "foresight" everywhere, and it must be known that many professional managers in New York at this time have gone to the rooftop to end their lives.
Saying that he made money when others lost money, and it was still a billion dollars of money, Liang Baoguang was tantamount to laughing at most of the people in the United States, even if he drove the shield wall, the broken cauldron and the shipwreck, the Holy Blessing, the Avenger's Shield, the Iron Sideburns, the Bark Technique, and the White Bone Shield and drank the Iron Bone Wine at the same time, he couldn't withstand the damage.
"Baoguang, won't you introduce me?" The person who broke the siege appeared when Natalie Portman frowned, the others were just rushing from Los Angeles to New York, but Kim Tae-hee came by plane from Seoul, and he came here without even settling down as soon as he got off the plane. finally had the opportunity to have a relationship with Hollywood, and Jin's mother couldn't stop her, so she was bored at home and finally let her go.
Liang Baoguang breathed a sigh of relief, Natalie Portman is otherwise okay, but it is a headache to often be more serious when it is not necessary, but fortunately, Kim Tae-hee immediately interrupted their conversation and ended the previous topic, "Natalie, this is mine...... Very good friend Kim Tae-hee, you can just call her Jenna. ”
Because he didn't know how to explain the concept of "Nuna" to Natalie Portman, Liang Baoguang had to use a good friend to bring it over, but Kim Tae-hee didn't think so, and took the initiative to reach out and shake Natalie Portman, "Natalie, don't listen to him, I'm actually his eldest cousin." ”
"The ladies exchanged more feelings, and I went to the lobby to greet the guests. Natalie Portman arrived very early, and Kim Tae-hee arrived in the afternoon, and the relationship between the two and Liang Baoguang is not an ordinary guest. At this time, the time on the invitation card was about to arrive, Liang Baoguang felt that it was more convenient for the two ladies to chat together, so he went downstairs with interest, and he had a lot of things to be busy with at the opening celebration party, so he couldn't prepare early.
Ian McKellen also came early, during this time he chatted with Liang Baoguang about the script very speculatively, and he was also optimistic about Liang Baoguang's future in the film industry, so he brought Freddie Heimer with him, "Although this blessing is a little late, I still wish you a bright future in the film industry." ”
"Borrow your auspicious words Ian, hurry up and go in and blow the air conditioner. Liang Baoguang smiled and welcomed people in.
"Why didn't you see Scarlett?" Because he was often with Liang Baoguang during this time, Ian McKellen knew about the relationship between them, and he was a little surprised that he didn't see anyone at this time.
"I don't know. Liang Baoguang originally expected Scarlett Johansson to help him greet guests, but now he can only go to Natalie Portman, this pair of girlfriends is also interesting, and they have a good relationship but also like to say goodbye to each other.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to come here too, Ian. Michael Barker is a big guy at the festival, and although he hasn't worked with Ian McClain on Sony classics, he has talked to Ian McClain twice, "Are you optimistic about Paul?"
"There are a lot of people who are optimistic about him. Ian McKellen said pointedly.
