Chapter 146: Spring Teahouse
"You've been 'invited' too?!"
Xiang Yi'an, Ghost Wang Dong and Jiaolong all opened their eyes wide and asked each other such a sentence at the same time, which really makes people admire the sameness of the underworld characters in terms of dialogue and styling. None of them answered, but each shook his head, and now they all had the feeling of capsizing in the gutter.
In terms of Taoist strength, the other associations in Hong Kong combined may not be as good as the sum of the three major associations, and now they have been arrested by a person who is not on the Tao at all. If this matter spreads, I am afraid that they will not have the face to appear on the road in the future.
Chunlai Teahouse is still Chunlai Teahouse, but everyone's mood is different, and the position of the guest and host has been completely reversed. They walked up to the second floor, and when they looked up, they saw that the tables in the teahouse had been cleared, leaving Xiao Ran alone on a chair in the middle, as if the surrounding tables had been moved away to make room for him.
Looking at Xiao Ran's waist very straight, his right hand was propped up on his thigh, and his left hand gently raised the teacup to his mouth, he drank it all. Ghost Wang Dong and they recognized that it was Xiao Ran, but they vaguely didn't look like the usual kind and cheerful Xiao Ran, especially Xiao Ran's action of raising his hand made them unable to see Xiao Ran's expression clearly, which added to Xiao Ran's strong aura.
Xiao Ran raised his head, and saw the three of them stunned in place from a distance, and he shouted quietly: "Sit!" ”
After Sunshine and the monkey went to move chairs and placed them on both sides of Xiao Ran's lower head, the three of them suppressed the panic in their hearts and sat down. Xiao Ran moved, and handed the teacup to the sunshine. Sunshine and the monkey were awe-inspiring in their hearts, they had never looked down on Xiao Ran very much, they just thought that Xiao Ran was a rich man. Later, in the process of filming a movie with Xiao Ran, they found that Xiao Ran was not only rich, but also talented.
However, now they found out that Xiao Ran's hearty smile that was usually on his face was not shown to everyone. Xiao Ran is showing a strong situation now, and even they don't dare to take a big breath. They all thought that Xiao Ran might not be as simple as they imagined, at least he was eligible for their protection.
When the sun poured tea in the small teacup and handed it to Xiao Ran, Xiao Ran gradually showed a smile that was different from usual: "Three, I regret that I need to invite you in this way!" Still, I think it's time for us to talk! ”
By now, the three of Ghost Wang Dong didn't even dare to breathe, and now they realized that Xiao Ran was not bluffing before, but really had a background and strength. In fact, they only need to think about it carefully, Xiao Ran can find out where they are, and he can also send someone to "invite" them head-on, which proves his strength.
Seeing Xiao Ran's eyes on him, Ghost Wang Dong didn't dare to face it, and immediately turned his face away slightly to avoid the terrifying eyes. Xiao Ran smiled slightly, now the effect he wanted has been achieved, and it looks very good.
He never intended to ask the police to help him out, and if he was going to control the underworld, the police would never be able to help him do this. Therefore, he did not intend to make the negotiations arranged by the police successful. Therefore, in the first two days, he did nothing, but ordered a full contraction, and the crew also stopped filming.
is to let the three major societies have an illusion, and the illusion will tell them that Xiao Ran has no strength and does not need to talk about it at all. And now Xiao Ran "invited" them in this way, undoubtedly to tell the three of them in this way: As long as I want, you will die at any time.
Xiao Ran's little trick succeeded, and now the three of them did take the initiative to think of the deep meaning behind Xiao Ran's move, maybe it might be better to say that it was a warning. The three of them still didn't dare to talk at this time, Xiao Ran chuckled: "What's wrong?" Didn't you think I was an empty shell the other day? ”
Or...... You think I don't know about you instigating other societies to harass the Phantom? Xiao Ran said slowly with a leisurely expression, in fact, there is no evidence whether he instigated him or not, but it is just speculation. According to his prestige in the Tao, if it were not for the instigation of the three major societies, I am afraid that no one would have hit him with ideas, especially such an idea that has no benefit.
The heads of the three of them hung lower, as if the three younger brothers who had made mistakes had been taught by the eldest brother to dare not raise their heads. Xiao Ran liked this feeling very much, and he was even enjoying this pleasant taste now.
Jiaolong couldn't help it, in such a depressing atmosphere, he really couldn't hold it back, and stood up violently and yelled at Xiao Ran: "Xiao Ran, don't talk nonsense, kill if you want to kill, uncle, I didn't come out on the first day, I predicted today!" ”
After all, it is still the ghost king Dong and Xiang Yi'an City Mansion that are much deeper! Xiao Ran sighed secretly, and let his eyes drift on Jiaolong's body as if nothing had happened. This Jiaolong is a standard southerner, not tall or strong, and actually quite backbone.
Xiao Ran's smile deepened, if he wanted Jiaolong's life, then he wouldn't be here today. He smiled meaningfully: "Brother Long, don't worry, you can't live if you want to die, you might as well listen to me say a few words." ”
"I'm a businessman, I can't do such a thing as hurting others!" Xiao Ran's smiling appearance made people mistakenly think that he was on a blind date: "What's more, I'm still a pacifist, I can sit down and talk, why bother to be angry!" ”
Pacifist!? Sunshine and the monkey almost burst into laughter, they are Xiao Ran's personal bodyguards, of course they know what Xiao Ran is going to do next, in short, the word peace has nothing to do with Xiao Ran. The three people below kept snorting in their hearts, and secretly cursed in their stomachs: What bullshit peace!
However, for the three of them, this is very good information, at least confirming that Xiao Ran has no intention of taking their lives. Xiang Yi'an can be regarded as an old man, and almost immediately expressed his position: "Brother Ran is right, if there is any contradiction, just sit down and talk!" ”
"Yes, yes, Brother Ran, you go on, let's just listen!" Ghost Wang Dong's smile is like this, but he has never shown it to his parents. Only Jiaolong can't get off the stage, and he can't stand there or sit.
Black is black, and it's really nothing good! Xiao Ran sighed secretly again, and was even more glad that his "self" before he came did not join the gang. Seeing that Xiao Ran didn't say anything, Xiang Yi'an immediately understood what he meant, and preemptively said, "Brother Ran, in fact, this time is not what we want to do, but was forced by Fang Ruohai!" ”
Xiao Ran's heart skipped a slight beat, isn't it Jiahe? Is it Fang Ruohai? He couldn't believe it, because he had always felt that Fang Ruohai was not someone who could have a relationship with the underworld. Seeing Xiao Ran's eyebrows twitching slightly, Ghost Wang Dong knew that this was what he wanted, and hurriedly continued: "Fang Ruohai not only promised to help our film company do distribution, but also promised to distribute it to Europe and the United States, so we agreed to it for a while!" ”
Do publishing? Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment, now Haile Group has no distribution channel of its own at all, and the distribution some time ago was handed over to Jiahe to do. Why is there a way to issue it all of a sudden?
On top of that, Xiao Ran's Phantom now controls the distribution of films by at least one-third of the production companies in the local market, and the other is the studios who take the initiative to negotiate, and the remaining about 40% of the market is Golden Harvest.
Not to mention that Fang Ruohai didn't grasp the distribution agency at all, even if he did, no production company would give him the film. Xiao Ran faintly felt that there was a problem in this, there must be a problem, and Fang Ruohai must have mastered something.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Soon calmed down, he told himself that if he didn't settle the three in front of him, he was afraid that he would be in trouble. However, he has always been confused, what did Fang Ruohai rely on to tie Jiahe and Debao to the chariot?
He is very clear about Jiahe's attitude towards the phantom, it is a kind of fear, afraid that the phantom will impact Jiahe's status and market. And Debao has a certain fear of the Phantom's rapid expansion, so it is natural for them to join forces.
However, this must be more than that, Jiahe and Debao at least agree with Xiao Ran, and it is difficult to allow the existence of an outsider. So, there must be some unknown transactions among them.
Can't be in a hurry, this thought came to mind, Xiao Ran finally settled down, nodded slightly to Jiaolong and motioned for him to sit down, and then said lightly: "You are not children anymore, what does he use to make you believe?" ”
Ghost Wang Dong and Jiaolong smiled bitterly, where did they have a choice at that time, either they let the film company continue to lose money, or they believed in Fang Ruohai, who had strong financial resources. Anyway, with their power, they are not afraid of Fang Ruohai's backlash.
They didn't know, but Xiang Yi'an knew, and according to his caution and prudence, such a question naturally had to be asked to Fang Ruohai before agreeing. After hesitating for a moment, thinking of the means that Xiao Ran showed today, his heart was cold, and he immediately decided to fall to Xiao Ran: "I know, he told me that the distribution rights of Taiwan will be obtained by him soon, and as long as he gets Taiwan, the distribution rights of the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore and other places will be successfully obtained." He also said that the Haysen Group is ready to buy a Hollywood film company! ”
Xiao Ran's smile froze for a moment in an instant, quickly spreading the smile, making it impossible to figure out what was behind the smile. Hasten Group wants to buy Hollywood studios? Xiao Ran only felt that his blood was about to freeze at this time.
Could it be that Fang Ruohai knows my steps so well? Xiao Ran's mind was spinning rapidly, and countless thoughts appeared in his heart. Buying a TV station has been preempted by Fang Ruohai, and if he buys a Hollywood film company again, it will basically be tantamount to defeat.
But he only thought about it and knew that it was unlikely. The main business of Haisen Group is not the film industry, and being able to give Fang Ruohai money to do it in Hong Kong is probably the limit of Wen Bowen's concessions. So, buying a Hollywood studio is definitely an empty word.
Maybe it's not empty words, and it's not necessarily known. Xiao Ran smiled sinisterly, it doesn't cost much money to buy a reading power production company, but it can be regarded as a Hollywood film company. Spending $2 billion to buy a film company is probably only a guy like Sony who has too much money to throw around, or an ambitious guy like Xiao Ran would do it.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ran's heart calmed down, and he said slowly: "So you promised Fang Ruohai to join forces to deal with me!" Not bad, really good! I don't know what you guys are thinking right now! ”
The three of them immediately smiled bitterly, what could they think? It's all here, Xiao Ran has already shown with his actions that he has the ability to take their lives at any time and anywhere, what else can they think?
They are not stupid people, and they are not stupid people to get into this position. The reason why they treated Xiao Ran so respectfully was not only because of Xiao Ran's strength, but also because they realized that the people who arrested them were not ordinary people, more like professional soldiers, or stronger. From this point of view, Xiao Ran has a very deep background, which is almost undeniable.
At this point, they can't even admit defeat. Xiao Ran can get them here today, and he will naturally be able to take their lives tomorrow, which is what even a fool wants. Therefore, they are unwilling and afraid to say no more.
Xiao Ran smiled slightly, drank the tea slowly, and handed it to the sunshine, and then smiled very meaningfully: "Since you don't have any ideas, then I'll tell you what I think." The underworld is yours, as long as it's okay, I won't interfere. However, the rules of the entertainment industry are set by me, and anyone who dares to interfere or violate the rules of the game will be punished! ”
After speaking, Xiao Ran stood up and glanced at the three of them. The three of them didn't know what Xiao Ran meant, but according to Xiao Ran's background and strength, it was not that they were unqualified to do this. They all nodded and said, "Brother Ran, just do as you say!" ”
"Yes, this tea is really good, do you want to give it a try!" Xiao Ran's smile suddenly became relaxed, making everyone in the audience feel the pressure drastically reduced, and when the ghost king Dong was about to reach out to pick up the teacup, he heard Xiao Ran say lightly: "Brother Dong, you go back first, I'll talk to Brother An and Brother Long about something!" ”
The three of them were stunned, Xiang Yi'an and Jiaolong didn't know what Xiao Ran wanted to talk to them about. Ghost Wang Dong glanced at Xiao Ran suspiciously, and then left with his palms full of sweat. Seeing the ghost Wang Dong leaving, Jiaolong couldn't help but ask, "Brother Ran, why can't you tell him if you have anything to say?" ”
Xiao Ran smiled and didn't answer, just calculated the time of the death of Ghost Wang Dong, while blindly talking about how this tea was, and the degree of enthusiasm made the two of them unbearable. estimated that it was almost over, Xiao Ran patted the shoulders of the two with a smile and said, "People can't make mistakes, two, you can go." It's just that it's late at night, so be careful when walking! ”
Not long after going downstairs, Xiang Yi'an and Jiaolong wanted to go their separate ways without saying a word, and they saw their respective families coming out of a restaurant opposite, which was not trivial......
