Who are you calling powerful?.

Chapter 682 Let my three sons circle and kick one of your sons

Three days later, Pudong Villa
Witnessed by many relatives and friends, Young Master Wei completed the drawing of lots ceremony.

However, it is a pity that Young Master Wei did not grab the items that his parents or even his grandparents expected, such as gold ingots [wealth], seals [power], Ruyi [everything goes well], golden rice bowl [system], etc. Instead, he grabbed a brush and poked.

"Great, a top writer will surely become a talented person in the future."

Da Mimi, who came to watch the ceremony despite her busy schedule, was the first to show her support, and Li Jiahang also praised her with great tact.

"His father started out as a screenwriter and writer. His sons have inherited his father's legacy and are both talented. That's a good thing."

The others also praised the child, which made Wang Yunping and the other elders very happy. They hugged the child and kissed him. However, Liu Shishi was still a little unwilling to give in. She didn't want to take her anger out on the child, so she took out her anger on the father.

"It's all your fault for giving him stuffed toys to play with these past few days. He can't help himself when he sees fur."

Wei Yang felt wronged: "How could I buy as many stuffed toys as you?"

Besides, the purpose of the Zhou ceremony is just to bring good luck and there is no need to take it seriously. There are many people who grab seals and golden bowls, but few of them can become officials. Even those who hold a sword still have to suffer to take the college entrance examination.

Besides, there is nothing wrong with becoming a literary creator, painter, scholar, etc. in the future.

He has a high social status, a wealthy family, and a leisurely life. He is a little envious of his eldest son.

Although it was a celebration for the child, he did not stay for too long. He was not used to the large crowds and was taken away by his grandparents after playing for a while. The rest of the people took the opportunity to have a small gathering.

Wei Yang has been filming "Chi Le Chuan" since the Spring Festival. Many people haven't seen each other for a while, so it's nice to get together and chat.

Liu Shishi is the same. She has to work and take care of the children, so she doesn't have much free time. I have met those who came today one after another separately, but we have rarely played together.

They unconsciously split into two groups, with Wei Yang, the male host, entertaining the male guests, and the female hostess, entertaining the female guests.

There were a few women there, chattering all the time, like a duck farm, so Wei Yang simply took his male compatriots to the yard to chat, play cards, and have some barbecue.

Although they are all friends, they are also close and some are distant, among which Li Jiahang is definitely ranked number one.

The latter showed off two jerseys and said, "Don't say I'm not particular, these are the French championship jerseys. This one has Kante's signature, your favorite star of the French team."

Wei Yang took it and said with some regret: "There is no Mbappe's."

Li Jiahang shook his head: "This kid is too popular, I didn't get him. I also wanted to get you a Pogba one, but I didn't get it either."

"Forget about Pogba, I'm tired of him."

Although Pogba is still a Manchester United player, Wei Yang doesn't have a good impression of him.

Li Jiahang happily accepted the jersey, and Boss Wei reluctantly forgave him for going to Russia alone to watch the World Cup final.

In other words, he still had some conscience and knew to bring himself a souvenir. Without these two jerseys, he would have made things difficult for this kid for half a year.

After putting his jersey in the car, Wei Yang went to get two large boxes of high-end cigars and distributed cigarettes all over the court.

Except for those who don't smoke, he basically took it. Finally, he threw it to Li Jiahang, but the latter declined.

"I don't smoke anymore."

Wei Yang gave him a strange look: "When did you quit?"

Li Jiahang smiled reservedly: "It's not really quitting, it's just for the next one or two years anyway, I have to smoke less at home."

This was a bit strange, but Boss Wei was experienced and reacted immediately.

"My daughter-in-law is pregnant?"

"roll."

Li Jiahang cursed subconsciously, and then smiled with gloating attitude.

"Your son is doomed to die. My wife has checked and found that she is also a son. If you really want to marry me, try your best to give birth to a daughter."

"Forget it. Your family is too poor. I'm afraid my daughter will suffer if she marries him. You should try to have a second child."

Wei Yang cursed with a smile, put away the cigar in his hand, and turned to look at Li Sheng who was talking to Liu Shishi in the living room.

"How many months? You didn't tell me."

"It's been less than five months. I didn't dare to tell you in the first three months, and I didn't find the right time to tell you later."

"Good boy,"

Wei Yang hit Li Jiahang who was smiling foolishly. He knew the unspoken rule that one cannot tell others about pregnancy in the first three months. Zhao Liying and the others also followed the rule when they were pregnant. It was understandable, but he didn't tell anyone after three months. It was really disloyal.

"What can I say? I can't just go around shouting to the world that my wife and I are pregnant. Who would be like you, without a hint of deep thought?"

Li Jiahang couldn't help but complain. When Wei Yang had a son, he did show off to him, which made him very angry.

But now, Wei Yang already has three sons, so he couldn't brag about having twin sons. Also, due to his personality, he didn't announce it to the public in a big way.

"Tsk, tsk."

Although his daughter-in-law's dream was temporarily shattered, Wei Yang was still very happy for his brother. At the same time, he came up with a good idea.

"Speak to me politely next time, or I'll let my three sons beat up your son."

Li Jiahang was not afraid at all: "First make sure your three sons don't start fighting each other."

Wei Yang: "..."

Just because of what you said, I will give birth to a few more children so that I can beat your son together...

After arguing with Li Jiahang for a few words, a man came late to the door. He looked obviously panicked and sweat was on his forehead.

"Mr. Wei, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, the plane was delayed and there was a bit of traffic on the road, so I'm late."

"it's okay no problem."

Wei Yang stepped forward and embraced the other person: "You were busy, so I didn't plan to invite you, but I thought this was a rare opportunity, so I asked you to come and play. Let's have a private gathering, don't be shy."

That being said, Shen Teng still felt a little pressured as it was his first time attending Boss Wei's private party and he was late.

Li Jiahang, who was familiar with him, smiled and helped him change the subject: "Are you here from the road show? Good boy, your "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is quite popular."

After these words were spoken, others couldn't help but join in the conversation, and Hu Ge handed Shen Teng a glass of wine.

"I took a look at Hualuo this morning. It has surpassed 9 million in three days, beating out Hidden Man and Detective Dee: The Four Heavenly Kings."

Qiao Zhenyu shook his head. "Old Hu, what you said is biased. The box office of these movies is not even at the same level. It is difficult for those two to break 10 billion or even 5 million. The box office of The Richest Man in Xihong City is predicted to have exceeded 20 billion."

Yuan Hong and Shen Teng have worked together in "Detective Chinatown 2" and are quite familiar with each other.

"Old Shen's cumulative box office revenue has reached 10 billion, and his box office success is second only to Old Wei." "What are you talking about?"

Li Jiahang smoked a cigar while watching the fun. Wu Jing said: "We have a big director with a salary of 50 billion+ here. Baoqiang is also a serious billionaire movie star."

Wang Baoqiang was not there, so Wu Jing, the person involved, shook his head and said, "I was just lucky. Shen Teng's films were all self-made. Let me calculate, 'Charlotte' was over a billion, 'The Shameful Iron Fist' and 'The Richest Man in Xihong City' together were close to 2 billion, 'Detective Chinatown ' was over billion, and 'The Love Master' was over billion."

Wei Yang applauded at the right time: "Congratulations to Mr. Shen Teng for becoming the third billionaire movie star."

Hu Ge and Yuan Hong shouted, "Learn from Teacher Shen Teng and pay tribute to Teacher Shen Teng."

Shen Teng was almost scared to tears. He bent his legs slightly and bowed repeatedly to beg for mercy: "Dear teachers, dear brothers, I was wrong, please forgive me."

Although he has a good record in movies, he has too little experience. Facing these popular big names, he feels very insecure.

But after such a commotion, Shen Teng quickly integrated into the group. He held a cigar in his mouth and boasted to Li Jiahang. Hu Ge, Yuan Hong and others also had a good chat with him.

To be honest, although Shen Teng has a low level of qualifications, his achievements are solid.

Even though his "Mr. Billion Dollar Box Office" had some supporting roles and was not as high-quality as Boss Wei's all-male leading roles, most of the box office revenue was still due to him.

This comedian, who has only recently become famous, has become an indispensable presence in the Chinese film and television industry in just a few years.

The fact that I was able to squeeze into Wei Yang’s private party today is proof of that!
You have to know that Wei Yang's core social circle is mainly composed of old friends or friends and colleagues who have worked together many times. Those who squeezed in later, such as Deng Chao, Wang Baoqiang, and Wu Jing, must have outstanding achievements to be accepted by Wei Yang and others.

Of course, there is one most important reason, that is, Wei Yang likes him.

After all, no matter how high your box office is, it’s just that to Boss Wei. He can win you over, but there’s no need to make friends with you.

Only if he feels that you are a good person and that he is comfortable getting along with, will he choose to be friends with you. This is the most basic and most critical premise, and the others are just various bonus points.

Since they are all people from the entertainment industry and Shen Teng is the person involved, it is inevitable that they talked about the summer movie season.

Although this year's summer movie season is not as lively as the small screen, the lineup is also impressive.

In July alone, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" had many rivals.

Especially Jiang Wen's "Evil Does Not Suppress Justice". Considering that the lines of "Let the Bullets Fly" are about to be nominated for world heritage, the outside world has high expectations for his new work.

Xu Ke’s “Detective Dee” series has always been very popular and has attracted a lot of attention from the outside world.

There is also "Asura", a film with huge investment and known as a magical epic. Not many people are optimistic about this film, but press releases are flying all over the place.

The key is that I thought it would be a focus battle, at least it would be exciting.

But I didn’t expect that “Hidden Man” would be critically acclaimed but not commercially successful. It had good reviews and its lines were popular, but its box office just wouldn’t increase.

According to predictions, it will be at most a little over 10 billion.

This is actually much better than the previous life. In the previous life, the rival of "Hidden Man" was "Dying to Survive".

Now "Dying to Survive" has been snatched up by Wei Yang, and the other two movies released at the same time did not make much splash. Although "Evil Does Not Suppress Justice" did not become a big hit due to its subject matter and style, its box office was nearly twice as high as the 5.8 million in the previous life.

In other words, there is no way to take credit, otherwise Wei Yang would really like to ask Lao Jiang for a big red envelope...

"Detective Dee: The Four Heavenly Kings" was also affected by the butterfly effect.

This movie can be regarded as Huayi's savior, but Huayi's previous fun was too much, and many audiences were disgusted and boycotted it. In addition, the cast was average and the plot was not attractive. The key point was that there was also competition from "The Richest Man in Xihong City" at the same time, so the box office was even worse than the previous life, and it was difficult to get 5 million.

The comeback card that Huayi hoped for has failed, and the investment in the film is not small, so the box office revenue is likely to be a loss.

What’s more, such a poor performance has ruined the popular IP “Detective Dee” for the most part.

"Monster Hunt" was scrapped during the Spring Festival.

"Detective Dee" was ruined during the summer vacation.

The ongoing "Cell Phone 2" is scrapped.

The company's Optimus Prime, Feng Kuzi, has also bid farewell to the film industry, and the company's artists have also been in trouble due to tax evasion scandals, causing people to feel uneasy.

Wei Yang felt worried for the two brothers of the Wang family. Huayi's stock price hasn't collapsed completely yet, which shows that these two people are very skilled.

Compared to the killing spree in July of "The Richest Man in Xihong City", the following August is even more exciting.

Blue Whale has not produced many films, only "Sewing Machine Band" starring Li Jiahang and Nazha, and has invested in Huang Bo's "A Good Show" and the comic-adapted film "Take My Brother Away".

The three films each have their own advantages. I can’t guarantee that they will dominate the schedule, but it won’t be a problem for them to create an advantageous situation.

The only movie that Boss Wei took notice of was "The Meg", a Hollywood film starring Jason Statham and Li Bingbing.

However, when Wu Jing, Shen Teng and others were discussing, they all talked about the "Love Apartment" movie and "Europe Raiders" starring Liang Chaowei.

They think these two films are quite threatening, especially the "Love Apartment" movie, which is said to have sold particularly well in pre-sales.

However, when they found out that Yuan Hong had also acted in "Love Apartment" and mentioned "Grave Robbers' Chronicles", they couldn't help but look at each other in surprise.

How did these two IPs come together?

Wei Yang ignored all this and just asked Li Jiahang a question: "'Sewing Machine Band' was released before 'Love Apartment', right?"

Li Jiahang nodded, and Wei Yang felt relieved. That was fine. He was afraid that the audience would be fooled by "Love Apartment" and affect "Sewing Machine Band".

And according to the current order, it will definitely offset the negative impact of Li Jiahang's participation in the "Love Apartment" movie.

After all, one of the two movies is a masterpiece, and the other is a bad one, and they both feature the same actor, so it's obvious whose problem is it.

In fact, Wei Yang is very dissatisfied with the marketing promotion of the "Love Apartment" movie, which is called a surprise but is actually a scam.

If you really want to collaborate, just say it openly.

It is originally a fan-oriented movie, and the basic audience are all fans. Even if there is a collaboration, it will not affect the fans' support.

But lying is wrong. Going into the cinema went against expectations, passers-by were disgusted, fans were alienated. Chunchun has a problem with his brain.

Wei Yang once discussed this issue with Li Jiahang, who also gave suggestions to the film crew, but to little avail.

Anyway, the original purpose of joining and supporting Old Friends and "Love Apartment" has been achieved, so Li Jiahang simply took advantage of the "Sewing Machine Band" incident to withdraw and not get involved in this mess.
I heard that Wei Zheng also has plans for "Love Apartment 5". I wonder if this guy will come back to act in it.

If he were to act, Wei Yang thought about taking over the show and investing in it himself to avoid all these troubles. The show had good traffic and reputation, so it wasn't a losing deal.

More importantly, Wei Yang remembered that Li Jiahang took the risk and asked his wife to play the role of mother-in-law.

Then can his brother play the role of father-in-law?

Tsk, for this little bit of vinegar, Wei Yang can make dumplings...
