Chapter 233: The Third Master Arrives
Shao Yingying didn't tell Gao Yuanyuan what happened, but quietly hugged his wife for a peaceful night, and waited patiently for the New Year in the next few days.
On the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the Shao family was as usual, a family of seven people happily ate Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and Xiao Shao Nian insisted that there would not be a grain of rice left in the bowl when the old man of the Shao family gave the board a meal, and as long as there were vegetables in the bowl, he would never stretch out his chopsticks to clip it. Shao Yingying was relieved when he saw this scene, if his son could grow up under the education of his own grandfather, it would never happen anything unexpected in the future, at least he knew what he should do and what he shouldn't do, and there was still a person who was afraid in his heart.
At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, the habit of the Shao family is still that Shao Yingying and Gao Yuanyuan keep the New Year, and the remaining four old and one young are sleeping in other bedrooms of the villa.
Gao Yuanyuan spoke very densely, as if she had told Shao Yingying all the words she had accumulated for a year, like replacing the curtains at home with a high-tech version that would not reflect the figure in the sun and lights, so that she was not afraid of the top brand; Like some old people are getting older, and they are equipped with cars and drivers; Like what, after a while, I plan to replace Xiao Shao Nian's room with a wooden floor, otherwise the child will always be cold when he is barefoot...... Wait a minute. They chatted happily, but they lacked the passion that once leaned together to enter a topic that was not suitable for children in less than ten minutes.
After being married for so long, time will dilute a feeling, just like a couple who have been married for ten years is likely not to lie in bed for a month or two. It's just that Shao Yingying has a legitimate reason to go out to work.
When the sky was bright, Shao Yingying and Gao Yuanyuan went back to catch up on sleep, and the two slept soundly. When I woke up, it was noon.
"Boss Shao."
As soon as Shao Yingying went downstairs, he saw a room full of people, including Wen Zhang, Yang Shuo, and the artists with heads and faces in the company had arrived anyway.
"No, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, you don't go to your parents' or mother-in-law's house to pay New Year's greetings, what's the matter with me? Even if you give me a New Year's greeting, you should be after the fifth day of the new year. Shao Yingying looked at everyone in confusion and asked.
"Sister Hua? Brother-in-law? Elder brother? Why are you all here, I should go to your house. Isn't that all messed up? β
Shao Yingying likes Lao Li'er, and the younger ones give the older ones New Year's greetings to the older ones, which is called a matter of course in us, and today this is ......
Wang Jinghua was the first to stand up. put a bank VIP card on the table and said: "Xiao Shao, this is all my net worth, originally I mortgaged a few houses in my hand to make up 100 million, but after thinking about it, I still forget it." I can't sleep on the road...... So. Ninety million. β
"No, sister, what do you mean?"
Feng Xiaogang didn't let him speak, pulled Xu Fan out of the crowd and said: "Xiao Shao, I don't have any left, our house is not worth much, this is 130 million, don't worry about it, no one can live." β
Next is Jiang Wen: "I don't have much. 40 million, you know I haven't saved much money over the years. It's still a lot to make movies. β
When the three cards were placed on the table, three points of strong friendship pressed heavily on Shao Yingying's shoulders, and he didn't dare to breathe.
Shao Yingying has already pondered the taste, this group of people is not here to pay New Year's greetings at all!
Wen Zhang stood up and said, "Boss Shao, if I have less, only 20 million, don't give me small shoes to wear." β
Yang Shuo smiled again and again: "I'm eight hundred." β
Sun Li walked out and said at the same time: "I'm a thousand eight." β
Wu Rubo and Zhang Wan walked in when their aunt opened the door after hearing a knock, and said as they walked into the crowd: "I said that the bank won't give you a mortgage on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so you don't believe it, what's wrong?" Didn't it work out? β
Zhang Wan still replied: "I haven't done it again, can't I take more if I press the house, how do I know ......?"
Seeing a room full of people, they stopped talking, and saw a table of cards, Zhang Wan took out the card and handed it to Wu Rubo, Wu Rubo put it on the table and said gently: "If you don't worry, we can still make up a thousand after the New Year, and now we will make up 100 million, I am 6,004, and he is 3,000." β
Cards were placed on the table one by one, and Wang Jinghua said, "Xiao Shao, I thought about it, I can do this." β
"Didn't Zhongying let us break the boat? I'm anxious that the people in our company have discussed it, if it is broken, you don't have any pressure, even if it is all lost, our group of people will have no money at most, and the fame is still here, as long as the fame is still there, plus you Shao Yingying is still the boss of the hero Huayi, then it is not so difficult to make money. β
Feng Xiaogang continued: "There is only one of us in this group of people who has walked out, you can't say that you admit it, you look at the group of people in front of you, how many of them are not held out by your own hands?" Now you need help, and they are willing to take out their money to help the company tide over the difficult situation, and when the time comes, they just need to pay it back. β
Jiang Wen also said: "Xiao Shao, don't think we are here for friendship, in fact, we are all taking advantage of us." If you really bring Zhongying with you in this matter, then you are the helmsman of our Chinese in Hollywood, you have the final say on which domestic artists are sent out first, and then these people will definitely appear in your Shao Yingying's movie first, can you not say it in advance, why don't you show your face in Hollywood first, even if you can't leave your name on the Avenue of Fame, won't we also go out and spend a layer of gold back? β
Shao Yingying took a look, except for Jiang Wen and Feng Xiaogang, there was really no one in the room who didn't hold it by himself, like Li Yuyi and Zhou Xun, these people were not in the lineup at all, Wang Jinghua probably didn't tell anyone outside Shao Yingying's family about this at all for the sake of secrecy, not even Fan Yiyi.
"Don't worry, as long as these people who came here today leave the room, they won't forget what happened just now."
As soon as Wang Jinghua finished speaking, someone walked in outside the door, Haiqing, Teng Huatao, Zhang Yi, Zhang Xinyi, Chen Sicheng, Li Chen, Wang Baoqiang, and Zhang Guoqiang all came.
Backbite.
Shao Yingying's phone rang, he picked up the phone and looked at it, and a text message was sent: "Don't worry, I asked someone to ask the bank, saying that as long as I pass the eighth day of the new year, I can handle a large amount of transfer business, and my 142 million will be transferred to the company's account, leaving 3 million for the operating expenses of the studio - Fan Yuyi!" β
So far, Shao Yingying didn't say a word, and he didn't know what to say at all.
Jiang Wen opened his mouth and said: "Xiao Shao, I've pondered about this, I really can't wait for MGM to go bankrupt and acquire it, MGM's film library has already been pressed to the Bank of China, if you don't take advantage of the financial crisis in the United States to make an acquisition but wait for MGM to go bankrupt, the giants of the film library will definitely take action, and when the time comes, we will have no connections and no connections, and we will definitely have nothing left if we want to have a friendship or no friendship, which means that there is still no foundation in Hollywood, which is no different from building a new company." β
"On the other hand, it's not a small risk for us to eat MGM, not only to bear MGM's debt problem, but also to reopen channels, anyway, it's enough for you to be busy. Xiao Shao, this matter really has to be like what the third master said, if you do it, you have to break the boat. β
Wang Jinghua interjected: "Actually, to put it bluntly, the main force in this matter has to be Zhongying, let's take this money to show an attitude, as long as you Shao Yingying can get back the rights and interests of 'exclusive profits from shooting movies by yourself', and the rest of the investment is completely with the Hollywood team, we can make this money back quickly." Wang Jinghua opened his bag and took out a copy of about forty pages from inside: "This is the acquisition plan made by our company, it is already very detailed, there are not only a few jΓΉ in it, but also a specific analysis of how you Shao Yingying has made movies and how to raise the market over the years, if you take this thing over, the third master should not say anything." β
Tick, tick, tick.
When a long-distance phone number appeared on Shao Yingying's phone, Shao Yingying immediately held up the phone and asked, "Who understands English?" β
Wang Jinghua stood up unrelentingly, Shao Yingying really didn't know that she actually understood English.
The phone was connected, Wang Jinghua's expression became more and more solemn, and after listening to this passage, he turned his head to look at Shao Yingying and said, "Boss Shao, Harry Sloan said that he can't bear it!" β
"The current situation is that the entire economic system of the United States is getting worse and worse in the general environment, and the bank refuses to defer the installment repayment of MGM's loan, and they can only give the bank the $60 million that they plan to invest in your next movie, but in the next issue, they will have no money to repay the debt at all, and I am afraid that the situation they will face will be that the company will go bankrupt, unless new funds are involved in debt restructuring."
Shao Yingying took a deep breath and sat on the sofa, at that moment, his mind was like there were thousands of troops fighting.
"Sister Hua."
Gao Yuanyuan opened her mouth at this time: "Brother-in-law, and everyone, thank you." This money is earned by your hard work, and everyone knows what kind of temper our Shao Dagou usually has, and it is not easy to make money in his hands at all. Gao Yuanyuan took out the card and put it in everyone's hands and said: "I know what he thinks, if he really takes this money, he will not be able to work with peace of mind in his life." That's it, Sister Hua, how much is our Huayi worth now? β
Wang Jinghua responded: "If it is difficult to estimate after listing, after all, it takes too long to wait for listing, as far as the current situation is concerned, it is no problem to choose the mortgage hero Huayi, and it is no problem to press one billion dollars, the dollar is now depreciating too much." β
Gao Yuanyuan glanced at Shao Yingying: "Is one billion enough?" β
She slowly sat down next to Shao Yingying and said: "They are your brothers, friends, and artists who have been brought out by themselves, it is not appropriate to lose other people's money, Hero Huayi is our own family, I am your daughter-in-law, what other concerns do you have?" β
When, when, when.
There was a knock on the door, and when the aunt opened the door again, the third master actually came to Shao's house on the first day of the new year!
"This is, the Spring Festival reunion dinner, or do you want to hold a swearing-in meeting?"
The third master made a joke unhurriedly, ignored the people around him at all, and said to Shao Yingying: "Xiao Shao, let me say a few words to you." (To be continued......)
