Chapter 486: Cooperation Intent; send word

At about half past seven, Cheng Long rushed back, and then greeted each other, chatted a few words, and immediately took Zhang Chengyuan and others to a high-end restaurant for dinner.

Before the dish was served, the crowd began to talk again. Cheng Long looked at Xiao Jing and said, "Cheng Yuan, when we met in Hong Kong two years ago, your sister not only grew a lot taller, but also seemed to be getting more and more beautiful. Well, Crystal, do you remember me? ”

Xiao Jing smiled sweetly and said: "I remember, Uncle Cheng Long, we met once in Hong Kong during the Spring Festival in 06, at that time, you passed by in a car and saw a scene of my brother saving people on the street, so you invited him to dinner, I and Sister Youli were also present at that time, and that night, you invited your brother to the racecourse to watch the horse race, and we were also there." "She remembers it very well, and she still remembers the events of two years ago vividly.

Cheng Long said: "I also remember that night when you were betting on horses, you sat next to Cheng Yuan and shouted loudly, and you were elated when you saw your brother winning. I haven't seen you for more than two years, you have grown so big, and you are much quieter, if it wasn't for Cheng Yuan's introduction just now, I'm afraid I wouldn't have recognized you! ”

Little Crystal smiled shyly. At that time, she was still young, and she was much more babbling than she is now.

Cheng Long continued: "Your brother and sister-in-law all call me eldest brother, and you call me uncle, it seems that there is a bit of confusion, so you can also call me eldest brother in the future." "He's used to being called Big Brother.

Xiao Jing nodded and responded, "I know the way, Brother Cheng Long." Also, Xie Lu, thank you for the Fuwa Beibei and Jingjing that your brother transferred to me last time, I like them very much. "Last time Cheng Long went to South Korea, he prepared a gift for Xiao Jing. It is the mascot of the Yanjing Olympics Wufuwa puppet. All of them are cute and moving. He also specially commissioned someone to use the best materials to hand-make it very well, so that Xiao Jing loved it very much, and often took turns to sleep with one of them during this time.

Cheng Long smiled and said, "It's good if you like it." ”

Then, Cheng Long said to Liu Yifei: "Yifei, thank you for helping me receive Cheng Yuan again this time, otherwise I would be rude." ”

Liu Yifei said: "It's okay, Brother Zhang is also my good friend and has helped me a lot." I should have received him. ”

Cheng Long said: "During the day tomorrow, Cheng Yuan, Youli, and Crystal will also ask you, I am very busy and have no time to accompany them." ”

Liu Yifei said: "I know that you are the busiest artist during the Olympics during this time, and you definitely don't have time to accompany Brother Zhang and them, so I have asked them to play at the Ming Tombs tomorrow." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Chengyuan nodded to Cheng Long.

Cheng Long said: "That's good, I hope you can have fun tomorrow." ”

Zhang Chengyuan said: "Big brother, don't worry. With Yifei here, we're sure to have a great time. ”

After gossiping. Cheng Long talked to Zhang Chengyuan about the matter and asked, "A few months ago, you told me that you planned to invest in China, how are you thinking about it now?" ”

Zhang Chengyuan shook his head and said: "Big brother, I have this plan, but I don't know which line I want to enter, and most of my current funds are in the financial market, and if I want to take it out, it will be the end of this year at the earliest." ”

Cheng Long smiled and said: "I have a little idea, well, are you interested in co-building an artist training school with me, selecting students in Hong Kong or the mainland, and then allowing students to receive professional training in South Korea?" ”

Zhang Chengyuan was puzzled: "Big brother, aren't there many professional schools in China that train artists, how can you have such an idea?" ”

Cheng Long said: "Those first-class professional performing arts schools in China have a very high threshold, they are not so easy to enter, and after they are trained, they may not be all good, which can meet my wishes, and I hope that the training schools we cooperate with can carry out some professional training according to my ideas, especially in pop singing and dancing." Perhaps, if the Korean entertainment industry is really stronger than Huaxia, it should be that pop singing and dancing are slightly ahead of China and closer to the trend of the world.

Zhang Chengyuan said: "Then why are you looking for me, my company is still only a small company, and I don't have a strong ability to train artists?" ”

Cheng Long said: "The only person I can fully trust in South Korea is you, who am I not looking for you?" As for the level of training, I believe that with your ability and connections and status in Korea, as long as you have sufficient funds, you will be able to solve the problem. ”

Zhang Chengyuan said: "Big brother, you think too highly of me, in fact, I don't have much influence in the Korean entertainment industry." However, since you want to cooperate with me and send me money, I can't refuse. I agreed. ”

Cheng Long said: "Then I am responsible for the selection of students and the investment of major funds, and you are responsible for the venue and training." ”

Zhang Chengyuan responded: "No problem." Just this time? ”

Cheng Long groaned: "In terms of time, it may take a year and a half, after all, this selection of trainees is not something that can be done in a short time, let's take our time and don't worry, so that you can have more time to prepare." Also, are you interested in working with me for another entertainment agency? ”

Zhang Chengyuan asked, "What kind of brokerage company?" ”

Cheng Longdao: "You are responsible for contacting some excellent Korean actors, and I am responsible for introducing these Korean artists to the Chinese film and television drama market." ”

Zhang Chengyuan smiled and said, "Big brother, you won't send me money today, right?" How is it another business that makes me money? ”

Cheng Long said: "It's just mutual benefit." In the past few years, China's film and television market has been very prosperous, so that the remuneration of mainland actors has risen sharply, while Korean actors are much cheaper. ”

Zhang Chengyuan knew that Cheng Long's words were just an excuse, with Cheng Long's pattern, where would he care about this? And the reason why he said this may be just because he didn't want him to feel a psychological burden, and he couldn't help but be a little moved, and immediately said sincerely: "Big brother, in fact, you don't have to do this for me." ”

Cheng Long Zhilu said that Zhang Chengyuan saw his intentions, and said: "Don't thank me, I should thank you for it, you not only healed some old injuries on my body." And sent me so many precious teas. Now I drink it every day. It's really comfortable and energetic, and I'm afraid that it's okay to live another twenty or thirty years. And this is not something that can be compensated by one or two small cooperation. Also, if there's anything else you need my help with, just let me know. ”

Zhang Chengyuan said: "I don't have any ideas for the time being, but if I think of it in the future, I will definitely tell my eldest brother." ”

Now he has a doppelganger to help him grab money in the financial market. In fact, there is no longer much need to invest in China, after all, although the Chinese market is large and there are many business opportunities, but general industrial investment, but how can he use special means to carry out financial speculation to make money faster and more? However, it was inconvenient for him to refuse Cheng Long's kindness, so he agreed to cooperate with Cheng Long.

Or it can be said that these two cooperation ideas between Zhang Chengyuan and Cheng Long are considered from the perspective of economic interests. There is no need for either side, but in fact it is just a product of their desire to reciprocate and deepen their friendship.

Cheng Long continued: "Hmm. Let's talk about this first, and I will send someone to contact your company for the next thing. Oh, by the way, there's one more thing I have to tell you. Well, you should know that I changed to a Hollywood agency a few months ago, right? ”

Zhang Chengyuan nodded, of course he knew about it. About not long after the release of "The King of Kung Fu" in North America, Cheng Long's contract with the CAA agency expired. Morris Agency signed the contract. And earlier, Liu Yifei also signed a brokerage contract with this company.

Cheng Long continued: "One of the brokers in the WMA company asked me to give me a message, asking if you would like to sign a global brokerage contract with him? ”

Zhang Chengyuan asked, "Big brother, why would he come to you for a message instead of coming to me directly?" ”

"Who knows?" Cheng Long shook his head and said, "Maybe he mistakenly thinks that I am your eldest brother, you have to listen to me; Maybe he thinks I have a good relationship with you and can help him persuade you. You must know that Yankees sometimes like to pull relationships when doing things, what do you talk about 'network'! However, you don't have to look at my face, I'm just helping to pass on a message, and if you think it's suitable, sign it, and if you don't think it's suitable, don't sign it. ”

Zhang Chengyuan thought for a while and said, "Big brother, I want to hear your opinion. ”

Cheng Long also said politely: "If you ask me what I think, I will naturally say, 'You can consider it completely', because if I don't think so, I won't sign a contract with this company myself." And to be honest, most of the brokerage companies in the United States are very formal, unlike you in South Korea, which are too restrictive, so you don't need to worry too much. I think as long as this agent is willing to give you enough benefits and show enough sincerity, you can sign with him. ”

Zhang Chengyuan responded: "Okay, big brother, then I'll listen to you." He felt that Cheng Long's words were completely selfless, so he agreed, after all, Cheng Long has been in Hollywood for many years, and he is much more experienced and knowledgeable than him.

Cheng Long said: "Your decision, I will tell the agent back, I believe that soon, he will contact you." After a pause, he smiled again: "Well, if you also sign into the WMA company after a while, then you will have the same meal with me and Yifei, and maybe we will have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future."

Well, let's not talk about it, let's eat first, the dishes are almost cold. Cheng Yuan, today we are eating Hunan cuisine in the eight major cuisines of China, although it is spicy like Sichuan cuisine, but the style is a little different, you can try it. Youli, crystal, you can also taste it. Yifei, you must have eaten it many times, so feel free to eat it. With that, Cheng Long picked up the chopsticks first.

When Cheng Long and Zhang Chengyuan were talking, the dishes had already come up one after another, and soon a table was full, and Xiao Jingjing's eyes were shining and her saliva was dripping, but Cheng Long and Zhang Chengyuan didn't speak, and she didn't dare to move the chopsticks. As soon as Cheng Long spoke at this time, she immediately thanked her, grabbed the chopsticks and picked them up. However, when she picked up a piece of beef, she remembered that she hadn't greeted Zhang Chengyuan yet, and she was a little rude, so she smiled at Zhang Chengyuan wryly, and then put the piece of beef into Cheng Youli's bowl, and said softly: "Brother, I am holding it for Sister Youli." ”

Zhang Chengyuan glared at her slightly and said, "Sister Youli, I will be responsible, I don't need you to come." Also, pay attention to etiquette when eating in the future, don't be so impatient. Lifting the chopsticks, she picked up a few pieces of her favorite food and put them in her bowl, and then grabbed a few chopsticks and put them in Cheng Youli's bowl.

Little Crystal smiled and said, "These dishes are so fragrant, so I can't help it!" ”

Cheng Youli glanced at Zhang Chengyuan with a smile and signaled that she could come by herself.

Because this conversation between Zhang Chengyuan and Xiao Jing was said in Chinese, because Zhang Chengyuan asked Xiao Jing in advance to speak in Chinese as much as possible in China this time to exercise her Chinese conversation ability, so everyone present could understand. Cheng Long smiled and said: "Cheng Yuan, it's normal for children to be lively, don't be too strict with her, in fact, she is already very sensible." ”

Liu Yifei didn't speak, just smiled and followed what Zhang Chengyuan had just clipped, and sandwiched the little crystal again, she already had a deep affection for this cute and lively little girl.

Xiao Jing hurriedly thanked her: "Xie Lu, Sister Xie Yifei!" "Smiled sweetly.

Zhang Chengyuan said: "Big brother, you don't know how naughty my sister is, if you don't supervise it well, she will become more and more excessive." ”

Cheng Youli felt funny, and said in his heart: "As far as you usually love her, it's already good if you don't indulge her, and you still urge her?" At most, I just occasionally mentioned her a sentence or two. Fortunately, Crystal's tutor is good, and her sister Xiuyan is urging her tightly, otherwise she would have been spoiled by you. ”

……

In its happy atmosphere, everyone had dinner, and after a while, Cheng Long left, he still had entertainment, and he couldn't continue to accompany him, but he still left an assistant who was familiar with the situation in Yanjing to follow Zhang Chengyuan and give them a guide, because Zhang Chengyuan had told him just now that he wanted to take Cheng Youli and Xiao Jing to the streets of Yanjing at night.

After a while, Liu Yifei also left, today she has been with Zhang Chengyuan and the others for two or three hours, and she also has her own things to do, it is impossible to accompany Zhang Chengyuan and the others all the time, so she can't take them out to go shopping at night.

After Liu Yifei left, Zhang Chengyuan and the three of them went back to the hotel first, put on a little makeup, and then went to the streets, walking around at will, without a clear goal, where they felt lively, they just wanted to feel the atmosphere of Yanjing, as for whether it was modern or traditional, the three of them didn't pay much attention to it.

In addition, today happens to be the traditional Chinese Qixi Festival, so some streets in Yanjing have a little more festive atmosphere, the three of them took photos in addition to buying some gadgets related to the festival celebration, such as love chocolates, handmade couple rings, roses, etc., in addition to the Olympics related to the small things to buy, such as keychains printed with the words of the Olympic Games, crystal balls, hats, handicrafts and so on.

As the three of them strolled, the assistant assigned by Cheng Long followed closely behind them, not saying a word, trying not to disturb them, and only when Zhang Chengyuan needed his help to ask him questions, he would answer questions, give them directions, or suggest which bus to take.

The three of them kept playing, and only left for the hotel at about 11 o'clock in the evening, because they did not leave the hotel far, and the farthest was only near Tiananmen Square, so they returned to the hotel before 12 o'clock. Then take a bath and let Xiao Jing go to sleep in the next room, while Zhang Chengyuan and Cheng Youli are in the same room. Although Xiao Jing had the heart to sleep with Zhang Chengyuan again, but with Cheng Youli here, she was not easy to make a mistake, so she went back to her room a little sullenly, and at the same time suddenly thought in her heart: "If my brother marries Sister Youli in the future, then I may not be able to sleep with him again!" So, before that, if you have the chance, you must pester your brother a few more times. (To be continued......)
