China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 607 605. Little Ji-eun is an adult now

"If You Are the One 2" was released on January nd.

This film, which was rectified before its release, only achieved a box office of more than 2 million in the early stage during the golden box office period of the Spring Festival and under the impact of two films, "Iron Man " and "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".

It is still one-third short of the 600 million in the bet.

When Valentine's Day was approaching, Wang Zhongjun thought the box office would improve, but he didn't expect that a low-budget movie "Love is Not Blind" would be released during the Valentine's Day schedule.

The TV series "Love is Not Blind" is the white moonlight in the hearts of many people born in the 1970s and 1980s, so this movie achieved remarkable results as soon as it was released.

Although "If You Are the One 2" is also about love, its box office still remains below million.

By mid-February, when the film was about to be released, the box office had barely reached 500 million.

"Brother, is there any way to increase the box office or postpone the release of the film?"

Wang Zhonglei is a little anxious now. He really doesn't want to give his shares to Cao Yu, otherwise he will just be a shell manager in Huayi.

"I have thought about this, but if the normal 30-day release period we applied for is extended, we will have to pay more and may not be able to make back the profit."

Wang Zhongjun didn't know about his brother's affairs, he was only concerned about the profits.

"Brother, our stock price is linked to the box office, otherwise..."

"What else?"

"Why don't we think of another solution?"

Wang Zhonglei originally wanted to suggest stealing some of the box office revenue from "Love is Not Blind", but he was afraid of being scolded by his big brother, and now the supervision is much stricter than in previous years, so he had to change his words temporarily.

"Second brother, just take the movie. 500 million box office is already good. With product placement and future copyrights, we will make at least 300 million in profit from this movie."

Wang Zhongjun is content with what he has. He feels that it was a right decision to buy the copyright of If You Are the One 2 from Cao Yu.

"Ok."

Wang Zhonglei didn't know what to say and could only leave helplessly.

"How to do it?"

On the way back to his office, he felt more and more painful the more he thought about it.

That’s 11% of Huayi shares, worth hundreds of millions. Are you really going to give it to Cao Yu?
"I really regret it."

Although he felt extremely regretful, he could do nothing about it.

After returning to the office, Wang Zhonglei hesitated for a long time. He picked up the phone when it was almost time to get off work. He wanted to discuss the matter with Cao Yu to see if he could make some concessions so as not to suffer too great a loss.

Seoul.

Whenever Cao Yu comes to FNC, he usually spends time with T-ARA and the others first.

But today, Lee Ji-eun invited him to his house for dinner, so let this girl have it first.

It doesn’t matter who you eat with.

Also meet Xiao Zhien's requirements.

After finishing his work with FNC, Cao Yu first went to T-ARA's practice room, intending to meet with the six girls, comfort them, and then accompany Lee Ji-eun in the evening.

"OPPA, did you hook up with another girl?"

"He must have hooked up with another girl."

"Who is OPPA going to meet tonight? Do we know each other?"

"OPPA didn't even accompany us when he came"

"You can't blame OPPA, he has too many things to do."

There were six girls, some were curious, some were resentful, and some even spoke for him, which made Cao Yu feel a little embarrassed.

He smiled and said, "I'll accompany you tomorrow. I really have something to do tonight. I have to go to Japan to discuss something in a few days. How have you been doing recently?"

Ever since Park Ji-yeon finally got her wish and became the sixth wife of T-ARA, she is indeed more charming and mature than before.

"OPPA, we are now the second generation's top girl group, but we are too busy."

Captain Ham Eun-jung raised her head proudly, hoping to get praise from OPPA.

"I knew you were the best."

Cao Yu touched the faces of the six people and said, "When 'Sunny' is released, I will give you 1.8% of FNC's shares. Even if you don't become an idol in the future, you will have no worries about food and drink."

"1.8% of the shares?"

When the six girls heard their men say this, their eyes turned red.

1.8% of the shares may not sound like much, but the company's current market value is almost 1.8 billion US dollars, so 1.8% is million US dollars.

The six of them each get 0.3%, which is more than million US dollars.

That means you will never have to worry about food and drink.

"OPPA, you are so nice. It doesn't matter if I want shares or not, as long as I can always be with you."

Several girls gathered around Cao Yu and were all moved to tears.

They are just idols, although they are popular idols, but in the eyes of the real upper class, they are just entertainers and have no status at all.

But in front of the man, they were respected.

Although Cao Yu is sometimes absurd, they are willing to accommodate him and are willing to be cared for in this way.

Cao Yu noticed that the atmosphere was a little hesitant, and said with a smile: "Giving you shares does not conflict with staying with me all the time, but you have to work hard and strive to become actors in the future, and I will also protect you."

"Um"

The T-ARA girls nodded, and Park Hyomin whispered, "Go ahead, as long as OPPA has us in his heart, we are willing to have as many women as possible."

"You just indulge me..."

Cao Yu felt a little embarrassed, as he felt that Korean girls and Chinese girls were really different.

Maybe it’s because of historical reasons.

After comforting T-ARA and the others, Cao Yu went to the car downstairs and called Lee Ji-eun.

Not long after, Lee Ji-eun skipped down the stairs and got directly into Chairman Cao's car.

Upstairs, all of this was seen by Krystal Jung who was looking at the scenery from the window.

"Why did Jieun get in the chairman's car? What are they going to do?"

As the car drove out of the company yard, Zheng Xiujing reacted immediately: "There is an affair. I guarantee with my character that there is definitely something wrong with them!"

Although she guessed that there was something fishy going on between the president and Li Zhien, she was envious in her heart: "Since the president can take a fancy to Zhien, why can't he take a fancy to me? I am not bad either."

"I was too hypocritical before! I need to work harder! If my sister and the president get together, I won't have a chance."

Looking at the car going away, Krystal Jung glanced at her curvy figure under her practice clothes and cheered herself up secretly.

On the other side, Cao Yu's car soon arrived at the bottom of an apartment building.

"This is where you live?"

After getting off the car, Cao Yu looked around and found that the community environment was not bad.

"Yes, I just bought it last year. It's closer to where I go to college, but I can afford the house thanks to OPPA's care."

In fact, Li Zhien was a little nervous after getting in the car.

Now that she had come downstairs, she felt even more nervous, because she knew that after today, she would be a real woman.

"Come on, let me go up and see what our little Ji Eun's boudoir looks like."

Cao Yu took Li Zhien's hand and walked into the building.

Although Lee Ji-eun was hugged and kissed, this kind of hand-holding action was her first time. She blushed and her heart beat fast. She felt like she was in love for the first time and even walked unsteadily.

"OPPA"

"Ok?"

"I love you."

"Haha, little girl, I like you too."

Cao Yu lifted Li Zhien's hand and gently kissed the back of her hand.

Lee Ji-eun smiled sweetly and pulled his hand to put it on her face.

“Very thin and smooth.”

"If OPPA likes it, it's all yours."

"Then I'm yours too."

Cao Yu said this, pulling the little girl and quickly walking into the elevator.

As soon as they entered the room, he hugged Lee Ji-eun tightly in his arms. The little girl also hugged his waist tightly, and then they kissed each other like lovers in love.

After kissing passionately for several minutes, Cao Yu finally let her go. Looking at the girl in front of him with a sharp gaze, he smiled and said, "What are you treating OPPA to dinner tonight?"

“Is sushi okay?”

"That's so troublesome, is there an easy way?"

"Then I'll order two bowls of noodles?"

"it is good."

Cao Yu nodded. He only needed to take a bite now to satisfy his hunger, and would enjoy the delicious meal later.

When the girl hurried into the kitchen, Cao Yu didn't hesitate to open the refrigerator, take out a bottle of juice, and then lean on the sofa.

"This girl's room is so cozy and tidy."

Lee Ji-eun's room was filled with lemon, mint, and girlish pink, and the whole environment looked very girlish, but after today, she was no longer a girl. Thinking of girls, he couldn't help but think of Lin Yoona and Girls' Generation.

Girls' Generation is still famous now, but the number of their popular songs is decreasing.

“Why not train Yoona to be an actor as well.”

Just as he was thinking, Cao Yu smelled a familiar scent of kimchi.

He got up and went to the kitchen, where he found the little girl was seriously cooking ramen noodles. She had added some abalone, prawns, eggs, beef rolls and other things to the noodles, which looked quite appetizing.

However, Cao Yu has been in Korea for so long, but he has never eaten stir-fried food. Do Koreans not eat stir-fried food?
Still can’t do it?
But Cao Yu has gotten used to it.

The Korean girl is nice, but the food is not good.

He gently hugged Li Zhien's slender and soft waist from behind, then put it on the pot and sniffed it gently, and said with a smile: "Zhien, your cooking skills are good, it smells very good."

"I'm worried that OPPA won't be used to it."

IU turned around and gave a sweet smile that would probably make her fans dizzy.

"It's good to have you."

"Well, I'll make more delicious food for OPPA when I have time later."

While cooking noodles, Li Zhien said softly, "If you are tired in the future, you can use my place as a place to relax. I will cook for you and sing the songs you write. It will be a blessing to think about giving birth to a few babies for you in the future."

"Jie En."

Cao Yu was actually moved by this silly and cute little girl.

He picked up Lee Ji-eun by the waist, ignored her meal, and quickly walked towards the bedroom to start studying how to have a baby.

Lee Ji-eun closed her eyes, leaned in his arms, buried her head in his chest, listened to his heartbeat, felt the breath of OPPA, and felt very calm.

She felt as if all this was already destined, just like her coming to FNC.

When I first joined the company, I was only fourteen years old, still a little girl, and the company was also very small.

But she witnessed the company gradually becoming the number one in Korea, and under the training of OPPA, she has come to where she is today, becoming a singer with countless fans and earning a lot of money.

But for the president, ever since I first fell in love with him, my heart has slowly changed from admiration to love.

“Jie Eun…”

When Cao Yu put Li Zhien on the bed, he looked at the girl with her eyes closed and called out again.

"OPPA, love me."

The little girl opened her eyes, stretched out her arms, and hugged Cao Yu tightly in her arms, as if encouraging OPPA not to hesitate.

"Ding Ding Ding"

At this moment, the annoying cell phone rang again.

Cao Yu didn't even look at it, he turned off his phone without any annoyance, and then reached out to unbutton her clothes.
Soon, a pile of clothes taken off by the two people were thrown on the ground.

In the kitchen, the noodles in the pot were still bubbling, but no one cared.

The only sound in the main room was Lee Ji-eun's high-pitched three-note voice, which completely drowned out the sound of the noodles being cooked.

It was not until the smell of burning came from the kitchen that Cao Yu suddenly shuddered and shouted, "Oh no, what's wrong!"

"OPPA, it's all your fault. You're in such a hurry. There's still noodles in the pot. It's my fault that the noodles went bad."

"Haha, I cooked your raw rice, but our meal was ruined."

Cao Yu pinched the little girl's cute face and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Xiao Zhien's physique is really different from mine. OPPA really regrets not eating you earlier."

"I wanted to be with OPPA before, but you didn't want me."

Li Zhien pouted her lips, looking a little aggrieved.

"You were still young then, and now you are twenty years old. You can have it when you grow up."

Cao Yu said, got up from the bed, and said with a smile: "You take a rest first, I'll go to the kitchen to take a look"

"OPPA, I'll go and see."

In Korea, it is usually women who cook, but when Lee Ji-eun was about to get up, she felt so uncomfortable that she dared not move.

"I'll go, you take a rest."

"Um"

Li Zhien no longer forced it. Seeing Cao Yu going out with only a piece of clothing on, her face turned red again because of his muscular body.

"OPPA is so strong. I felt like I was flying in the clouds just now, but now I feel uncomfortable even when I move."

Li Zhien said, happily taking a doll on the bedside in her hand and pointing at the doll's nose: "Little Zhien, you are an adult now, a real woman, not a girl, do you understand?"

"clear."

She then shook the doll's head and pretended to agree in a soft voice.

Cao Yu came to the kitchen and found that the noodles and other ingredients in the pot were almost charred. They were too black to be eaten.

"I didn't finish the meal, but the little girl's food still tastes good."

Cao Yu turned off the fire, smacked his lips, and looked forward to this trip to Japan.

"However, I still have to accompany Fuzhen and see my son tomorrow. Otherwise, Fuzhen will be unhappy if she knows that I came and didn't visit her. If she is unhappy, she might beat my son."

“I just don’t know how many children I will have in Korea in the future.”

"Anyway, the birth rate in Korea has been declining year after year, so I'll just consider it as a contribution to their population, haha."

Cao Yu was laughing smugly when he suddenly realized something: "Why did I become so bad?"

"It's okay, life is short anyway. Besides, this is Korea."

Soon, he found a reason to convince himself and returned to the bedroom.

Li Zhien turned her head and said, "OPPA, can you still eat?"

"I can't eat it anymore. It's already dark cuisine. Let's go out to eat later."

Cao Yu didn't come here to eat originally, but now that the instant noodles were burnt, he decided to go to the hotel to eat.

Sitting on the bed, he took out his cell phone, turned it on, looked at the call records, and found that the person who called was Wang Zhonglei.

"What does he want from me?"

Cao Yu was in a good mood at the time, so he replied to Wang Zhonglei.

"Boss Wang, I was busy just now, what's the matter?"

"CEO Cao."

Wang Zhonglei originally thought that Cao Yu would not answer the phone, and would definitely wait for "If You Are the One 2" to be taken off the screen in two days before coming to cause trouble for him. Unexpectedly, he actually returned the call.

He quickly organized his words and said, "If You Are the One 2 will be out the day after tomorrow, and the box office is estimated to be only million at most."

Cao Yu smiled and said, "More than 500 million, not bad, we made money."

"Mr. Cao, can you be flexible about our bet? I still owe you money, and I promise to pay you back as soon as possible."

Wang Zhonglei really didn't want to give up his shares that would pay out a lot of dividends every year, so he used the word "you" for the first time.

"Boss Wang, I have to admit defeat. You owe me 400 million, and I haven't asked you for a penny of interest this year. How can you ask me to be flexible?"

Although Cao Yu was in a good mood now, he did not intend to compromise.

Do you think I'm a fool or a saint?
"this."

Wang Zhonglei was in a dilemma and begged, "Boss Cao, if I give you the shares, my brother will definitely beat me to death if he finds out."

"If I had known this, why would I do it in the first place?"

Cao Yu gave him a lecture, then continued, "I can consider leaving you a little bit of shares, but you have to listen to me in the future."

"How much to keep?"

"That depends on my mood."

Cao Yu smiled softly and said, "I'm not in China right now. During this time, you should prepare for the handover of shares and I will come back to Yanjing to find you."

"Oh well…"

Wang Zhonglei hung up the phone with difficulty, then covered his forehead in pain.

He didn't know how many shares Cao Yu would leave for him. If he lost his shares, what would happen to his status in China?
Listen to him
This seems to be more difficult.

On this side, Cao Yu finished his call, sat on the bed, and was also thinking about this matter.

He was not really after Huayi's shares, but he wanted to prevent capital from messing around in the entertainment industry.

Before its rebirth, Huayi had used capital operations in the form of gambling to control several shell entertainment companies, making the entertainment industry very chaotic. It not only raised the actors' pay, but also made many entertainment companies lose their original intention of making good films.

In the face of capital, filming is all about making money, all about capital operation, and art is left with only haha…

This is a very dangerous thing to do, but if I were in control of Huayi, a company that once had considerable influence, I might be able to prevent this from happening and avoid more bad films from coming out in the future.

"OPPA, what are you thinking about?"

While Cao Yu was making plans, Lee Ji-eun came up from behind.

“I want to eat there tonight.”

Cao Yu turned around and asked, "Do you feel better now?"

"much better."

"Then I'll eat you again, and then go eat!"

Cao Yu said as he hugged the girl and got into bed again.
