Chapter 590: New Film and Screenwriting Competition
"Oh, baby, don't cry......"
"Wow wow, wow, ......"
Li Jiaxin looked at her husband Lin Xiaozhi in front of her with a smile, and saw that he was hurriedly coaxing the energetic crying baby in his arms at this time, but unfortunately it didn't work.
"Sir, the baby is hungry!" The nurse on the side couldn't look at it, so she reminded her, "You can look at the diaper, is it time to change the ......?"
It's a pity that she reminded too late, Lin Xiaozhi embarrassedly looked at a piece of clothing that was suddenly wet on his chest, this little bastard is really good at peeing, obviously wrapping him in diapers and urinating on himself.
"It seems that it's time to change the diaper, you, let's hand him over to Aunt Zhang!" Li Jiaxin was busy breastfeeding another baby, seeing that he was in a hurry and didn't know what to do, he hurriedly instructed the nurse next to him to take the child to change the diaper, and his tone became more and more calm, and there was no more panic and nervousness when he found out that his husband had raised another woman at the beginning of marrying into the Lin family.
Since she was diagnosed by the hospital in the middle of the year that at least one of them has a more than seventy percent chance of being a baby boy, her status as the granddaughter of a wealthy family has been completely secure in the Lin family.
Lin Jili, the old man of the Lin family who was anxious to hold his great-grandson, rewarded her with jewelry, jewelry, and property worth no less than 10 million yuan in half a year, and after the child was born the day before yesterday, he was even more happy to see one child and two grandchildren. Not only did Lin Jiannian reward her with tens of millions of jewelry and property rewards, but the old man also transferred some of the bank shares in his name to her name, saying that it was for the two great-grandchildren, but in fact, she was not to supervise it.
Even in the so-called enlightened developed countries in Europe and the United States, especially the wealthy families with huge wealth, unless they really can't give birth to a baby boy, it is rare to see the family property handed over to their daughters and sons-in-law. It can be said that the preference for sons over daughters is not the exclusive preserve of the Chinese, but a tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation since ancient times, when humans discovered that strong men were much more able to harvest and survive than women during dangerous hunting and collective work.
Li Jiaxin gave birth to two sons for Lin Xiaozhi in October, even though he is now in the age of being strong, but in the eyes of the Lin family, after all, there is a fourth-generation successor, which is now more and more powerful for the Lin family, there is nothing more gratifying than this.
The wet nurse took the crying baby out to change the diaper, and by the way, received some warm water to scrub his lower buttocks. The other, after eating and drinking, burped and fell asleep quickly in his mother's arms.
Lin Xiaozhi gently took the baby who had just fallen asleep from Li Jiaxin's arms and put it in the cradle next to him. Then he sat down next to her: "Thank you for your hard work......
Li Jiaxin smiled and shook her head, and could see that she was in a good mood now: "Have you thought of a name, husband?" ”
"Don't worry about naming your name, even my dad doesn't want to name his two little grandsons, the old man doesn't want to, he has to ask the master to ask for the two best names!" He smiled bitterly and shrugged his shoulders, during the lunch yesterday, the old man was angry because Lin Jiannian thought of two names for his grandson and asked him if it was suitable.
There is no way, the old man is in good health now, although he is not as tough as in previous years, but after getting rid of the Lin family's many industrial management in the past two years, he is eating fasting Buddha and sea fishing, and his spirit is very good. With him at home, even Lin Jiannian, who has now been upgraded to a grandfather, has to endure training. The old man took care of the names of Lin Xiaozhi's two sons, and he could only accompany him with a smile.
Li Jiaxin smiled from ear to ear, the old man actually runs to the hospital every day these days, and sometimes even runs two or three times a day to see his great-grandson, the baby is amazing. So the old man is going to take the baby's naming rights, which is also expected by her.
After chatting for a while, she remembered her sister-in-law, who was also about to give birth, "Why haven't you seen your sister-in-law recently?" ”
"She was supposed to have about a month left in her due date, but the doctor recently found out that her fetal position may not go well during delivery, so she has been undergoing fetal position correction recently."
The nurse quickly hugged the new diaper back, and seeing that her son was no longer crying, Lin Xiaozhi took it and shook it in his arms and coaxed for a while, and Li Jiaxin on the side sat on the bed and looked at them with a smile and didn't speak. It didn't take long to see that the baby also fell asleep, Lin Xiaozhi carefully put the baby back into the cradle, then breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the time on the watch, and said: "I'll come back in the evening, the Film Association and the Screenwriters Guild are holding a screenwriting contest in the afternoon to announce the list of several outstanding works and authors who have entered the final eight. ”
"Oh!" Li Jiaxin's face was obviously a little lost, "Isn't the movie released?" Why are you still so busy? ”
"I've pushed off a lot, the European and American distribution, now Chen Qiang and Zheng Fei are talking, and with the promotion of Japan and South Korea, I only stayed for one day to let Fa Ge and the crew busy. I can only say that things have rushed together recently, and in two days, the SVCD of Media Asia Electronics will be listed, and I have to be busy for a few more days. However, I'll be able to stay with you for a while next week, even if it won't be long......"
He actually has a headache too, he was so busy before and after his daughter was born that he didn't have much time to accompany Zhou Huimin. Now that Li Jiaxin has given birth to two sons for him, it stands to reason that the movie has also been released, and he should give himself a long vacation. However, next year will be the day when the American monster blockbuster "Jurassic Park" will strike, although he has arranged a lot of pioneers, he can't help but have a pit teammate called the Hong Kong British government.
Since the arrival of the new Hong Kong Governor Chris Patten, he has repeatedly signaled to the outside world within a few months, saying that he wants to comprehensively upgrade Hong Kong's status as an international free trade port, not only has he signed new tariff regulations with many countries in the British Commonwealth, but has recently been actively contacting the United States, which is in a period of adjustment, and seems to be preparing to urge the United States to have more interests in Hong Kong before returning Hong Kong to the mainland in 97, so as to intensify the contradictions between China, an Asian power, and the United States, the sole superpower, in the future.
Originally, he should not be too distracted by this matter, but he couldn't help but inquire about it, and the British government in Hong Kong seems to be still ready to completely abolish the entertainment tax that needs to be paid when American films are released in Hong Kong, as he did in his previous life, and open up many conveniences such as American investment in local cinemas, and it seems that he is determined to tear down all the protective fortresses that Hong Kong filmmakers took half a century to build.
This also means that once the British government in Hong Kong really completely abolishes the entertainment tax that foreign films need to pay, American movies that used to be advertising in Hong Kong that exceeded one million US dollars will not be able to make ends meet ("Batman 1" spent more than one million US dollars on Hong Kong promotion, and "Batman Returns" is more than two million US dollars, but the box office is only 156 million Hong Kong dollars, and the loss is huge after deducting the theater share), and now it only needs to recover the publicity cost at the Hong Kong box office of more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars, and then almost all of them are net profits.
Huanya has no allies, and although the Xiang brothers have not suffered as much damage as in history under his help, it is an indisputable fact that the Xiang family is involved in the black, and it is still in the period of licking the wounds. Golden Harvest was ambitious and hoped to open up the European and American markets, but it was too dependent on the American film production team, and after several tears in order to share and dividends, Zou Wenhuai, who had to make concessions again and again, realized that it was not enough to make movies with investment alone, and he had to rely on Golden Harvest's own film production team. Not to mention that Golden Harvest and Media Asia are still competitors, just whether Zou Wenhuai is willing to bow his head to a junior like him, and accept Media Asia's capital injection in exchange for Media Asia's technical support and distribution channels is a problem, and it cannot be straightened out in a few words.
After the listing of the Golden Princess, the high-level management is in turmoil, and it needs to be stable for the time being, and it is estimated that it will not be able to let go of the steps in half a year or a year.
Calculated horizontally and vertically, even if he knew the danger of Hong Kong movies after next year, the only thing he could rely on was Media Asia.
Therefore, it has become a top priority to take more breaks and immediately start preparing for the launch of the new movie to face the impact of "Jurassic Park" next year. Choosing one of the two, he can only sacrifice a period of time with his family and make up for it later.
