Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 526 First cut into pieces, reminder (two in one)

After arriving in Los Angeles.

After some consideration, Lin Baicheng decided not to bring Guan Zhilin to the Beverly Hills villa for the time being. Lin Qin currently lives there, and taking Guan Zhilin there is equivalent to bringing Guan Zhilin to see her family, so the relationship between him and Guan Zhilin can't be hidden .

Lin Baicheng first arranged for Guan Zhilin to live in a villa in Los Angeles, and asked Qin Lan to stay as well, leaving a few bodyguards at the same time.

After that, Lin Baicheng returned to his villa in Beverly Hills.

"Brother, have you returned from the mainland? Didn't your parents come to Los Angeles with you this time?"

The time when Lin Baicheng arrived at the villa was around ten o'clock on Saturday morning. Lin Qin didn't go out at the villa at this time, and she knew about Lin Baicheng and others going to the mainland to visit relatives.

"My parents and my eldest sister are still in Peixian County in the inland area. I stayed there for a few days because of my work."

Lin Baicheng said to the housekeeper, Dorchi Hal, that he would not have to prepare his lunch at noon today.

Lin Qin couldn't help asking: "Brother, where are you going? Aren't you having dinner at home?"

"I made an appointment to have dinner with a friend."

Lin Baicheng responded casually, then looked at her and said, "It's been a long time since you started class, how is it? Are you used to it?"

"well enough."

Lin Qin thought for a while and said: "There is no problem in language communication, and everyone is easy to get along with, but there are some differences in living customs and habits. Generally speaking, it is not bad."

The school Lin Qin attended was a well-known private school, and those who could go there had to be from families with rights or money, so no one discriminated against anyone.In the United States, capital is everything. Even if Lin Qin is Chinese, but Lin Qin's family has money, Lin Qin will not be discriminated against.

"Hearing you say that, I'm relieved."

Lin Baicheng couldn't help but nodded slightly, and said: "Little sister, you have to remember that I sent you to study abroad to learn knowledge, not to play abroad, so you can't slack off in your studies."

Lin Qin snorted softly: "Brother, my grades have always been better than yours."

"I won't say much else. If you are wronged at school, don't hide it. If you want to make peace with others, just tell me what happened. I spent a lot of money to send you in. It’s not for you to go in and be bullied.”

Lin Baicheng reminded aloud that Chinese people usually have the idea of ​​'calm things up' when encountering things when they go out. This is not necessary, and he does not want his sister to be bullied.

Lin Qin responded: "Thank you, brother, I will definitely tell you if I have something to do."

Nodding his head, Lin Baicheng asked, "Today is the weekend, do you have any plans?"

Lin Qin said: "Sisters Lijun and Qingxia and I made an appointment to go shopping together in the afternoon, and to watch a drama at the Mark Taper Theater in the Music Center in the evening."

"Oh, have fun."

Lin Baicheng was going to accompany Guan Zhilin. After all, Guan Meiren had just been captured by him, so he needed to be by his side at all times and take good care of her.

"Brother, don't you go together?"

Lin Qin was a little surprised.

Lin Baicheng nodded: "Well, I'm not free, the three of you can go and play by yourself."

Lin Baicheng didn't stay at home for too long, after leaving Beverly Hills, he went to Guan Zhilin's villa.There is no chef here in this villa, only two regular servants often come to clean, so lunch is not eaten in the villa.

Lin Baicheng took Guan Zhilin to a high-end hotel for dinner.

Lin Baicheng said to Guan Zhilin: "Jiahui, I have time in the afternoon. After dinner, I will take you to Hollywood."

"Hollywood?!"

It can be said that Guan Zhilin was born in a family of film and television stars. Her parents used to be well-known film stars in Xiangjiang. I have heard of it, and I have fantasized about becoming a Hollywood star.

But now, Guan Zhilin is not as enthusiastic about becoming a star as before, let alone going to Hollywood in the United States.Now this kind of life where there is no shortage of money, going to the TV station when she wants to go to the TV station, and going shopping when she wants to go shopping is what she wants.

Lin Baicheng knew that Guan Zhilin liked to go shopping and buy a lot of things, so he gave Guan Zhilin a bank card with a certain amount every month for her to spend freely, but she accepted it without being too polite, and spent a lot of money every month.

"Do you want to be a Hollywood star?"

Lin Baicheng asked with a smile, if Guan Zhilin really wanted to, he would not be sure to make Guan Zhilin popular in Hollywood. After all, there are differences in the aesthetics of Easterners and Westerners, but there is no problem in letting Guan Zhilin make a few movies to have fun .

"Uh, I don't think so, but if there is a chance, I would like to make a movie."

Guan Zhilin thought for a while and said, her mentality is fine.

"If that's the case, then forget it."

Lin Baicheng smiled, since Guan Zhilin didn't really want to become a Hollywood star, then forget it, to save trouble.

Time passed while the two were chatting and eating. After the meal, the two took Qin Lan and the bodyguards to Hollywood.

That night, Lin Baicheng naturally spent the night with Guan Zhilin, and he knew the taste by eating the marrow, and he still had a lot of postures to practice with Guan Zhilin.

The next day, Lin Baicheng took Guan Zhilin to Hollywood again, but this time it was not for fun, but for Morning Star Films in Hollywood.

Although today is a holiday, Lin Baicheng, the big boss, wants to watch the first cut version of "Home Alone". Of course, Shirley Lansing can't refuse, saying that she will not only arrange the screening, but also modify the time schedule for playing with her family , Go to the company in person.

"Home Alone" was supposed to be filmed in early July, but something happened in the middle. Cameron Atlanta, the little boy who played the leading role, suddenly fell ill, which caused the crew to stop for about a week, which not only extended the shooting time, But also increased the cost of shooting.

This kind of accident is unavoidable, and let alone the little boy who plays the protagonist is difficult to replace, even if it can be replaced, it is impossible to replace the protagonist when the film is halfway through shooting, and the wasted cost will only increase many.

Even so, the first-cut version of "Home Alone" was actually edited in early August, but the film will be scheduled for release on Christmas, so Lin Baicheng didn't come here specifically to edit the final film. Morning Star Films went to see a movie.

Before the movie "Home Alone" is released, Lin Baicheng will definitely watch it. After comparing it with the original version in his mind, Lin Baicheng will only agree to the release of the movie after he confirms that the edited version is not bad. Otherwise, he will only let the director and The editor re-edits.

In the screening room of Morningstar Films, Lin Baicheng and others watched the first-cut version of "Home Alone".

After a movie was shown, except for Guan Zhilin's laughter from time to time, no one else laughed in the screening room.

Lin Baicheng has watched the original version many times, so he has immunity to this "Home Alone" which is very similar to the original. The plot can no longer make him laugh out loud, at most the corners of his mouth slightly turned into a smile.

As for Shirley Lansing and other senior executives of Morning Star Films, they know that their boss attaches great importance to this movie, so they have watched it a few times, and the laughs have already contributed in the previous few viewings.

After the movie finished playing, the lights in the projection room were turned on.

Shirley Lansing looked at Lin Baicheng worriedly: "Chairman, is there anything in the film that makes you dissatisfied?" She herself and the management think that the film "Home Alone" is quite good, even her Every adult would laugh from time to time, let alone children.

But the problem is, after a movie was shown, the boss Lin Baicheng didn't smile even once, which made Shirley Lansing not worried.

Lin Baicheng shook his head: "No, the shooting and editing of the film were done well, so let's do the final editing as it is now."

"As long as you are satisfied, chairman."

Shirley Lansing could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Come on, let's go to your office and talk."

Lin Baicheng said, the screening room is not a place for chatting, there is not even tea.

In Shirley Lansing's office, Lin Baicheng said to Shirley Lansing: "Lansing, I have high hopes for the movie "Home Alone", so when the movie is released, we must do a good job of publicizing and releasing it." Work, open as many screens as possible."

"I will definitely do a good job in related work and strive for the maximum number of openings from the theaters."

Shirley Lansing responded first, and then said: "However, chairman, our company is small after all, and it has not been established for a long time, and we don't have many contacts in the theater, so the number of openings may not be too many. "

"I know this, try to fight for it."

Lin Baicheng nodded to express his understanding. He didn't mean to embarrass Shirley Lansing. He thought for a while and said, "Lansing, do you think the company can increase the number of openings by signing a gambling agreement with the theater? If the film's box office If the number of gambling is not reached, then the theater chain can reduce the box office share to the company, so that the theater chain will have no loss."

"Chairman, it's possible, but I don't think we can get too many opening screens."

Shirley Lansing pondered for a while, and said: "After all, our company is not big, and we haven't shot a box-office hit film before, and the theaters certainly don't have too much expectations for "Home Alone", even if we reduce the Our box office share will not increase much revenue from the theater chain, so this kind of bet will not increase the number of opening screens much."

Lin Baicheng thought for a while and said: "Since this is the case, then you can try it when the time comes. If the number of additional paintings is not much, then forget it."

Shirley Lansing responded: "I will report this matter to the chairman when the time comes."

"Ok!"

Nodding his head, Lin Baicheng said: "By next year at the latest, I will inject at least another 5000 million US dollars into the company. I hope that you guys in Lansing can develop the company and give me a beautiful report card."

"Chairman, don't worry, we will manage the company well."

Shirley Lansing couldn't help being overjoyed when she heard the words. The more funds the company can use, the larger the scale of the company, and the stronger her confidence in developing the company.

"Before you develop the company, this 5000 million US dollars is my last support for Morning Star Films. If you still can't develop the company, then when I inject capital again, it's time for the company to change management."

Lin Baicheng reminded Shirley Lansing aloud that although Shirley Lansing was the president of Paramount before his rebirth, she was a proper strong woman, but if Shirley Lansing could not develop Morningstar Pictures, then Lin Baicheng will not tolerate and support Shirley Lansing unconditionally.

"Chairman, don't worry, we will not let you down!"

Shirley Lansing said solemnly that she knew very well that if she failed to develop Morningstar Pictures and left Morningstar Pictures in despair, then her career would basically be over.In the future, she will at most become the management of a small company, and the executives of large companies will basically miss her.

Therefore, Shirley Lansing has no way out. For her own future, she can only succeed. She must develop Morningstar Films.

Lin Baicheng didn't say any more, just pointing out the consequences of not being able to develop the company, saying more would only show that he doubted Shirley Lansing's ability, and if he doubted Shirley Lansing's ability, why let Xueli Lansing What about Lee Lansing running Morningstar Pictures?It was equivalent to doubting his own vision in disguise.

That night, Lin Baicheng took Guan Zhilin and others to New York.

Upper East Side of Manhattan, this is a well-known rich area in New York, especially Fifth Avenue, which is the richest area in the rich area. Lin Baicheng has an apartment here.

The apartments here are not cheaper than the villas in Beverly Hills. The area of ​​Lin Baicheng's apartment is just over 800 square meters, which is [-] square meters larger than the average apartment of more than [-] square meters. The entire apartment has about ten rooms.

The law and order in the rich neighborhoods of the United States and the security of ordinary people's neighborhoods are completely heaven and earth. The place where Lin Baicheng wants to live must be the rich neighborhood, even though he has bodyguards.

"Jiahui, tomorrow I will ask Qin Lan to arrange someone to take you to the famous scenic spots in New York, so you can have more fun then."

"Well, Brother Lin, you are busy with work and don't mind me, but after you finish your work, you must go shopping with me."

"Don't worry, I will go shopping with you and let you buy enough."

Lin Baicheng gently scratched Guan Zhilin's nose, and responded with a smile.

Although he came to New York today, Lin Baicheng did not call Vivien Kelly over. He planned to go to the office of the Golden Fleece Company tomorrow.

The Golden Fleece Company has now moved its office to the New York side, and its employees have also moved to the New York side, and Haruko Mori is no exception.

Haruko Mori also lives in Manhattan, and lives in an apartment under the name of Lin Baicheng, but this apartment is not on Fifth Avenue. Although it is also a rich area, the location cannot be compared with Fifth Avenue, and it is one level worse.

But for Haruko Mori, living in a high-end apartment in Manhattan is already very good. At least Vivien Kelly and others can only live a little farther away. After all, although their income is not low, the high-end apartment in Manhattan The rent and the consumption here are very high, which they cannot bear.
