251 [Intention to Peigong]
"Old Wang, let me introduce you to Mr. Xia Tianxia, the boss of Hong Kong World Films."
"Old Li, come and meet Mr. Xia Tianxia. He is the boss of Hong Kong Tianxia Film Industry. He is already a billionaire at a young age. It's amazing!!!"
"Old He, this is Mr. Xia Tianxia. How about it, you are a handsome man, young and promising! He is only twenty years old and has a billionaire worth a billionaire! I ask if you are convinced now?!"
“…”
Mr. Chang took Xia Tian around the banquet hall with a proud look, and it looked like the fox in the fable "The Fox Fake Tiger Power", which led a tiger around the forest to scare wild animals.
He is arrogant and domineering, very annoying!!
Xia Tian also realized that it was fake for him to introduce his friends to him, and it was real that he used him to ridicule his colleagues in the company.
Now he doesn't want to be his pawn anymore, "Mr. Chang, I'm sorry, I suddenly feel anxious and want to go to the bathroom." He suddenly frowned.
"If you have to bear for a while, there are still a few people, and you will be finished introducing them." Mr. Chang said with a stern expression when he heard this.
A few days ago, he was criticized in the company for using 30 million Hong Kong dollars to purchase the distribution rights of "Mr. Zombie" and took a lot of pressure. Because this price has always been used to buy movies by Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao and Xu Guanjie. Xia Tian's reputation is much smaller than that of the three predecessors, and it is questioned that it is not worth so much money at all.
Mr. Chang was guilty and naturally had no words to refute, and could only summarize and bear it.
After "Mr. Zombies" was released, the box office became popular, and this doubt disappeared. Mr. Chang also began to fight back and slapped him in the face.
Now it’s a great time to slap in the face, but Xia Tian is leaving. How can he feel good?!
"Mr. Chang, don't say secret words in front of a clear person! Do you really want to introduce friends to me? Or do you have other purposes?" Xia Tian looked at him coldly and said.
With the help of his own slap in the face, Mr. Chang really felt good, but how many people would he offend?! To be honest, Mr. Chang is in his sixties and seventies this year, and he will be burping at some point. By then, how can he continue to cooperate with others in the Taiwan China Film Academy? So he must not get involved in this muddy water, and he must stay out of the matter.
When Mr. Chang heard Xia Tian say this, he knew that he had seen through his tricks and couldn't help but blush, "Of course I'm really introducing friends to you. Well, since you're in a hurry, then go first."
"Yeah, goodbye!" Xia Tian nodded, turned around and walked out.
"Hmph! I don't know how to lift up!" Mr. Chang looked at Xia Tian's back and couldn't help but feel so angry that he said, "If I hadn't had anything to ask you for help, would you think I wouldn't do anything to you?"
...
Xia Tian went to the bathroom, then returned to the banquet hall, and sat with Wang Qixian and others.
Because of Wang Xiaoxian's outstanding beauty and beautiful temperament, he attracted many prodigal sons to come and chat with him just now. However, there were three men, Lin Zhengying, Yuan Hua and Xu Guanying, let alone men, and even a male fly could not pass.
"Brother Tian, is this banquet held for us today? Why do I think we are an insignificant foil?" Wang Qixian looked at Xia Tian in confusion and said coquettishly.
"Didn't I say that today is a Hongmen Banquet, but you and I are not Pei Gong, but Xiang Zhuang who dances with swords." Xia Tian smiled slightly.
"Then I wonder who Pei Gong is?" Wang Qixian couldn't help asking curiously when he heard him say this.
At this moment, I heard someone shouting, "Mr. Lin is here!"
Then we saw everyone swarming towards the door of the banquet hall, standing on tiptoe, stretching their necks and looking at them, like ducks enclosed in cages.
"What a big momentum! Who are you?" Lin Zhengying asked in confusion.
"It seems to be Lin Dengfei, the general manager of China Film Company." Xia Tian replied.
He has a certain understanding of Taiwan's China Film Academy and knows that its performance has declined in recent years, and it is because Wang Xiaoer's New Year is getting worse every year.
Because most of the movies it produces are politically responsible, it always makes movies like "The Battle of 823", "The Soul of the Whampoa Army", and "Double Tenth of Xinhai". In terms of entertainment, it is far less than that of Hong Kong movies, and it cannot arouse the audience's interest in watching movies, so the box office of the movie is very bleak.
So after former general manager Ming Ji stepped down, Lin Dengfei, who had just taken the lead, began to change his business methods in order to boost his performance.
On the one hand, he gave up Hou Xiaoxian and Yang Dechang, who were good at art films, and reused Liu Jiachang, a former commercial film director who had immigrated to the United States; on the other hand, he developed his business and switched from making movies to distributing movies. Because China Film has theaters in various parts of Taiwan, its distribution capabilities are very strong, and it is not comparable to private companies such as scholars and Long Xiang.
However, Lin Dengfei's move has also attracted some criticism from the outside world. He believed that he was completely against the law and was corrupted by the stinking of money and money, and advocated that he continue to reuse new directors such as Hou Xiaoxian.
"I guess he is Pei Gong tonight." Xia Tian murmured. According to the information he obtained, Mr. Chang had the opportunity to take the throne of general manager, but Lin Dengfei suddenly landed, shattering his dream of general manager. So it can be speculated that Mr. Chang was very dissatisfied with Lin Dengfei.
"So arrogant!" Xu Guanying said enviously. She saw a middle-aged man entering the banquet hall surrounded by everyone, and he was really majestic.
...
After Linden flew, an emcee took the stage and said loudly, "Everyone, after the release of "Mr. Zombies" by our China Film Company, it was well received and popular. It was released for ten days, and the box office in Taipei alone reached NT$15 million. The box office in Taiwan was as high as NT$50 million, which can be said to have achieved great success."
"The reason why such outstanding results is entirely due to the wisdom and wisdom of Deputy General Manager Chang Shukun and his unique vision. He withstood the pressure, resisted the opposition, and bought this film, which brought huge profits to the company. For this reason, he was willing to bear the pain of being slandered and criticized..." The emcee said loudly again.
Xia Tian noticed that after hearing what he said, many people present looked a little embarrassed. It seemed that they were all those who questioned Mr. Chang at the time. Now that he was slapped in the face in public, it is naturally difficult to have a good face. However, General Manager Lin Dengfei still had a calm expression and looked at the stage with a smile, as if he was not affected at all.
"This general manager seems not easy." Xia Tian pondered in his heart as soon as he saw it.
A discerning person can tell at a glance that today's banquet was a good banquet. It was clearly Chang Shukun's slap in the face of the company colleagues while challenging the authority of the general manager.
A deputy general manager of his is so capable and has a keen eye for the hero. He chose such a blockbuster film and made so much money for the company. However, General Manager Lin Dengfei made no contribution at all. To outsiders, who is more suitable for the position of the general manager, isn’t it clear in one scene?!
Xia Tian believed that Lin Dengfei was not a fool, and he must have seen Chang Shukun’s plan. But he was still able to keep calm, which was really not easy.
Because Xia Tian knew that the dogs that would bite would not bark! People like Chang Shukun who acted arrogantly had long known how many people they had offended, and sooner or later they could die! If Lin Dengfei was not a coward, he would have a great plan and quietly accumulating momentum behind his back, and then he would find an opportunity to knock Chang Shukun down at once! If the sword was not sheathed, he would kill someone if he was unsheathed!
While we were thinking about it, the emcee announced loudly again. "Now let us welcome several main actors of "Mr. Zombie", Hong Kong movie stars Xia Tian, Wang Shixian, Lam Zhengying, Xu Guanying and Mr. Yuan Hua, on stage!"
Xia Tian and others were stunned, and then they all came on stage amid warm applause!
"Now, please invite General Manager Lin Dengfei and Deputy General Manager Chang Shukun to the stage and present the Outstanding Artist Award to the five stars." The emcee announced loudly again.
"There is also the Excellent Artist Award? What is this award?!" Xia Tian and others looked at each other and felt a little puzzled, "It's probably a copycat award."
Then they saw Lin Dengfei and Chang Shukun boarded the stage together to present awards to the five people in Xia Tian.
I saw that the trophy of the "Outstanding Artist Award" was made of plexiglass, and the shape was imitated with "Eastern Han Drum-beating and Rapping Pottery" and looked very twisted.
Although the trophy is not of high level, it is the first trophy I won in my acting career, so when I see Lin Dengfei, she is still a little excited.
Xia Tian was about to reach out to receive the trophy, but at this moment, Chang Shukun was one step ahead and stuffed a trophy into his hand before Lin Dengfei.
"..." Xia Tian was stunned. Knowing that this was very unruly, Chang Shukun was so arrogant.
Logically speaking, although the five of them are nominally leading actors, there is no distinction between high and low. But in fact, anyone knows that as a boss, director, screenwriter, and starring, Summer is the highest among the five.
Therefore, according to the principle of reciprocity, Lin Dengfei should present the award to Xia Tian. After all, he is the general manager, and Chang Shukun is only the deputy general manager, and his status is still a short distance.
But now Chang Shukun is so rude that he gave the award to Xia Tian first. To put it bluntly, he just didn't take Lin Dengfei seriously and intended to give him his face in front of everyone.
Everyone present was stunned when they saw Chang Shukun's behavior. They were all looking at Lin Dengfei to see what his reaction would be.
Lin Dengfei just smiled slightly, skipped the summer and awarded the trophy to Wang Xian next to him.
"..." Xia Tian looked at him in surprise, feeling more and more that this person should not be underestimated.
Only by enduring what ordinary people cannot tolerate can one achieve what ordinary people cannot accomplish!
King Goujian of Yue slept with firewood and tasted gall, and accumulated strength, he had three thousand Yue Jia swallowed Wu and won the great achievements of becoming the overlord of the Central Plains.
Xia Tian believed that Lin Dengfei was not a coward, and he was clearly showing his weakness to the enemy. When Chang Shukun thought he could seize him, he would no longer be careful when he was arrogant, and would kill him with one blow when his flaws appeared.
