At the same time, in the office of Huayi Company, Wang Zonglei sat in front of the computer, sipping a cup of tea gently, listening to the report of the manager of the marketing department.

"In our negotiations with the theater chain this time, Wanda and the two companies of the New Film Association have completely formed a tacit understanding with us, completely excluding all aspects that can leak copies, and when our movies are released in these two companies in the future, we don't have to worry about the leakage of copies, these fucking grandsons should have done this a long time ago, or it would have saved us from this busy work for so many years." After Manager Cheng, who had a rough appearance and demeanor, finished speaking, he couldn't help but scold happily:

"I think those pirates were so awesome a few years ago! The salesman came to us and said that if we didn't give them 2 million publicity fees, we would let the pirated version of the movie fly all over the sky after three days of release, Lao Tzu was eager to kick him in the face at that time, we begged the theater to tell grandpa and grandma, they didn't cooperate, how is the situation reversed now? Is it the decline of the influence of pirates, or the increase of our influence? ”

"Hehe, Yucheng, come and have a look." Wang Zonglei showed a smile on his warm face, and let his old classmate come over and look at the report in front of him:

"Five years ago, when our movie had only a few million at the box office, it was time to set off firecrackers to celebrate, and at that time, pirates took 200,000 yuan to buy copies, and the theater chain weishenme did not sell them? The profits of our entire film industry are not as high as the profits of any of the two major pirates, and of course the theater chain can ignore us, they want to ask for Haode is just Yan Jie, who has the right to introduce Hollywood blockbusters.

What do you look at now? The box office of the new picture "Hero" is 2.5 billion, "Crazy Stone" is 40 million, and "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" is 300 million. Speaking of this, Wang Zonglei's soft voice has a kind of righteous taste.

"Alas~ Speaking of which, it's all about this Li Xiaole's picking, he's really not a simple person? I could see that he was engaged in hostile marketing with Zhang Weiping at the beginning, this kid is not a good bird. Manager Cheng worried: "If we go to the same schedule as him in the future, we have to be careful of this kid's tricks." ”

"You're thinking too much." Wang Zonglei hahadaxiao looked at his old classmate:

"There has never been an enemy in the film industry, the film market is brewed by everyone, China Film can have so many audiences enter the cinema this time, and it is also a market cultivated by the new picture "Hero", and the results of "Hero" are also the movie audiences cultivated by our company Feng Xiaogang's New Year films, the same reason, the movies we make in the future, the box office will far exceed before, we have to cultivate the market with several other film companies, so that more audiences in this market will come in, and wait until one day, We will have several films with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars competing at the same time, and at that time, our film market is the world where everyone really makes money. ”

"How many movies with an investment of hundreds of millions?" Manager Cheng couldn't help laughing, feeling that this was a bit too exaggerated.

"No piracy? I don't dare to invest 100 million to make a movie? Wang Zonglei asked rhetorically, and the two looked at each other, and they both hahadaxiao.

In China Film Group, not only Han Sanpin's deputy general manager's office, but even the humble second production office was suddenly crowded, and the heads of other departments went to visit Han Sanpin and Li Xiaole with various gifts to congratulate "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" on the box office hit, but as soon as the box office list came out this day, the two protagonists disappeared.

Without notifying anyone, Han Sanpin was secretly taking Li Xiaole to the General Hospital of the Armed Police to visit the people in the VIP ward.

The two of them had just come to the downstairs gate of the inpatient department and were about to go up, when they saw that Xiao He, who was burly and had a baby face full of smiles, was already waiting for them.

Xiao He saw Han Sanpin, Li Xiaole approached, and immediately walked down the steps to greet him, the three of them met their eyes on the steps, Han Sanpin asked nervously, "Is there any change in Xie Lao's condition?"

"Old Xie is fine." Xiao He looked at the two of them and smiled: "I have something to look for you today, and Mr. Yan has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Han Sanpin and Li Xiaole were stunned when they heard this, and after going up the elevator, they saw Yan Jie, Yan Fusheng's father and son sitting at the door of the VIP ward, looking sad.

Han Sanpin hurriedly and respectfully went over and greeted Yan Jie, who was wearing a jacket for the 20th anniversary of the founding of Beiying: "I'm sorry Mr. Yan, I didn't know you were waiting, it's late, sorry, sorry." ”

Yan Fusheng stood up and glared angrily at Han Sanpin, but at this time, Yan Jie stood up tremblingly, smiled kindly, and actually stretched out his hand full of old age spots to greet Han Sanpin.

Han Sanpin hurriedly reached out and held Yan Jie's old palm.

"Sanpin, this month has made you hard, and I am not good for the management below." Yan Jie sighed sadly, his old eyes glistening with tears.

"If it weren't for Mr. Yan doing support work in the back, the box office would never be so good this month." Han Sanpin hurriedly gave him the steps down.

Xiao He saw that the two of them were like water and fire, and they really smiled at the driving of enmity and hatred, and when they entered the ward, he heard his voice coming from inside: "Xie Lao, Mr. Yan, and Mr. Han have all arrived." ”

"Is Director Li here too? Let them in. Xie Yang's deep voice came from inside.

Xiao He opened the door and came out, and made a viewing request, seeing that Yan Fusheng was also about to go to the hospital bed, but he stopped with one hand and smiled: "Director Yan, you wait outside first, Xie Lao didn't let you in." ”

"You!" Yan Fusheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and immediately blushed, and wanted to go crazy in anger, but when he saw Yan Jie's eyes looking at him indifferently, he had to sit next to him angrily and glared at Li Xiaole fiercely.

Li Xiaole smiled, vaguely remembering the first time he came here, when he and Han Sanpin Jiang Wen sat on the bench depressedly, looking at Yan Fusheng's lofty face, today is just a change of status between the two.

Holding one hand and holding the other, Yan Jie, who was trembling, and Han Sanpin, who was high-spirited, kept this posture and approached the ward.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw Xie Yang, who had thinning hair and skin like dead wood, sitting on a chair waiting for them, turning his head to look at them, the two of them were startled, and immediately walked over and asked, "Old Xie, why did you get out of bed?" ”

Han Sanpin and Yan Jie both wanted to go over to help him, but Xie Yang waved his hand and said in a thick Hunan accent: "Don't help, you can find a bench to sit on yourself." He also smiled and pointed to Li Xiaole next to him: "Director Li, don't be restrained, sit by yourself." ”

Both of them hurriedly found a bench and sat next to Xie Yang, although they were a little haggard from chemotherapy, Xie Yang's eyes were still bright.

"Xiao He." Xie Yang shouted.

"Old Xie, what do you command?" Xiao He hurriedly came over.

"When I was away, these two carried such a heavy burden of the group, helped me up, and I shook hands with them."

"Yes." Xiao He came over and hurriedly helped Xie Yang to stand up.

Han Sanpin and Yan Jie hurriedly stood up: "Old Xie, you better rest~ We can't stand ......"

"Sit down all who can bear it." Xie Yang patted the two of them on the shoulders and motioned for the two to sit down, before going over and holding Yan Jie's hand first.

Xie Yang looked at the gray cloth jacket on Yan Jie's body, and asked him with emotion: "Xiao Yan...... How many years have you been wearing this dress? ”

Yan Jie lowered his head tremblingly: "Old Xie, this is the year I first entered Beiying, you gave it to me personally, and it is 34 to this day...... It's been 34 years."

"No, it's 35 years." Xie Yang shook his head, and then began to sigh, "As the saying goes, 'clothes are not as good as new, people are not as good as the old', but in my opinion, people are also good at the old, and clothes are also good at the old." After a long time, I can't bear it. ”

Whether it was Yan Jie, who was in his 60s, or Han Sanpin, who was in his 50s, the two of them were so moved that they immediately stood up again and lowered their heads, but Li Xiaole didn't feel anything.

"Sit down, sit down," Xie Yang pressed his hand.

Both of them sat down. The same touch, but the feeling is completely different. In Yan Jie, this is more than 30 years of hard work and followership, and when he is crumbling, he is naturally very moved.

In Han Sanpin, this is not only a signal that the chairman of China Film intends to entrust the entire China Film Group to himself, but this power is a hint that he will continue to cooperate with Yan Jie.

Thinking of this, Han Sanpin turned his head to look at Li Xiaole, whose face was calm, and his words on the road echoed in his mind:

"If Xie Lao asks you to let Yan Jie go, Mr. Han, you must agree, let Yan Jie go, Xie Lao will take care of people's favors, and you can let go of Yan Fusheng and these people below, if you want to express your stance to completely eradicate Yan Jie, then Xie Lao is scruples about this affection, and the people below are also protected, which has a huge hidden worry for the entire group, and cruel words must not be said by you."

Now it seems that Xie Lao really means this, how can this Li Xiaole see people's hearts so thoroughly at such a young age? Han Sanpin felt in his heart that Li Xiaole's scheming was no less than the other three people in this room.

Xie Yang didn't look at the two of them at this time, and continued as usual:

"Ordinary people have a common problem, they like the new and hate the old. In fact, we old people all know that clothes are worn out and close-fitting, and people are intimate when they are old. Turning his head to look at Yan Jie and Han Sanpin:

"Let's just talk about you, from the North Film to the Middle Film, several restructurings, several upper-level turmoil, you have all made great sacrifices, you are more affectionate than young people, and you also see farther, you are cautious in doing things, you are old, you don't cause trouble, and you have to use the old man to be in charge."

Saying this, Xie Yang paused, and his gaze turned to Li Xiaole's face again......
