China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 638 636. Reba’s little conspiracy: Nazha can use this

That day, Ma Yun couldn't wait to return to Hangzhou.

But for the whole next half day, his ears were always filled with messy voices like "the ball went in" and "someone CNM", which he couldn't get rid of.

He also heard that on another field, Hengtai drew with the opponent and the points had been overtaken by Yanjing Huanyu. No wonder the fans were so excited and almost made him collapse from the noise.

It is not known whether Hengtai can win the championship in the end. If Huanyu team wins the championship, Cao Yu’s assets may increase again.

It makes people so envious, jealous and hateful.

Fortunately, I got a good script, so the trip was worthwhile.

When he arrived in Hangzhou, he immediately found Zhao Yanzi and showed her the script of "Palace Lock and Bead Curtain". After all, in Ma Yun's opinion, Zhao Yanzi was professional.

"The script is really good, and the palace fighting is also well written. It can definitely be filmed, and it might become a hit."

After hearing Zhao Yanzi's comments, Ma Yun was finally relieved. It seemed that Boss Cao really didn't cheat her and her previous worries were in vain.

Zhao Yanzi closed the script and asked curiously, "Boss Ma, is Feiyu giving you the script an investment?"

"Not counting investment, I bought the script for 7.6 million."

"Bata."

Zhao Yanzi's jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Are you kidding me? A script costs over 7 million? Do you know the current script market? Even the best scripts only cost 2-3 million at most. You actually paid more than double that.

Mr. Ma, you are really rich. This price is enough to hire a top-tier celebrity.

Ma Yun also knew that she had been taken advantage of, but she didn't want to admit it: "The money was too little for Boss Cao to appreciate, and the project we were working on was huge, so I just considered it a favor."

"as long as you are happy."

Zhao Yanzi muttered to herself, and said, "Boss Ma, what arrangements do you have for the actors in this play?"

Ma Yun had already made up her mind on the way back, and said, "The male lead Seventeenth Prince will be played by Wu Yifan, and the female lead Feiyu will be played by an actress named Yuan Shanshan, who was recommended by Cao Yu."

"Yuan Shanshan?"

Zhao Yanzi had never heard of this name before, so she immediately searched it on the Internet and found some information about it.

It’s just that she looks so-so, not particularly pretty, and her lips look a bit weird.

She showed the photo to Ma Yun and said, "This girl is average looking, with thick lips. Why would Boss Cao recommend such an actress?"

Zhao Yanzi felt that Ma Yun was probably going to be cheated again.

But Ma Yun took one look and was more convinced that Cao Yu had taken advantage of her. She smiled and said, "Although her lips are thick, men like them more."

"Well, if you're willing, use him. Since he graduated from Beijing Film Academy, I think his acting skills won't be too bad."

Zhao Yanzi also knew Cao Yu's status in the entertainment industry. Since it was he who recommended her, Ma Yun had no objection and could only accept it.

Two days later, Zhao Yanzi's Yunfeng Media announced that it would shoot the second part of the costume drama "Palace Lock Heart Jade", "Palace Lock Pearl Curtain", and the investor was Tudou Video owned by Ali.

Although Tudou Video has been sued before and has caused a lot of trouble, it is still one of the top three video platforms in China because Ali is behind it.

Zhao Yanzi understood the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry. A few days later, she used her connections to organize a dinner party, on the one hand to select actors, and on the other hand to let Ma Yun see the handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry.

Sure enough, at the dinner, many actresses kept flirting with Ma Yun, the financial sponsor of this play, which made Boss Ma a little flattered.

"No wonder Feiyu Company is so big, but Cao Yu always likes to hang out in the entertainment industry. The scenery here is really unique, the girls are pretty, and they are open-minded."

Ma Yun took a fancy to a girl and planned to let her play the second female role
…………

Yanjing.

When Yu Zheng heard that Boss Cao sold his script of "Palace Lock and Bead Curtain" for 7.6 million, he felt incredible.

The script that was almost killed by Boss Cao was still sold so much. Boss Cao is really amazing. This is more money than what I could make as both a screenwriter and a producer.

In order to befriend Feiyu Entertainment, Yu Zheng generously took only three million and left the rest to Feiyu Entertainment.

Regarding Yu Zheng's approach, Cao Yu felt that these people were quite capable.

That day, he suddenly saw Zhao Yanzi announce in the office that the project of "Palace Lock and Bead Curtain" had actually started casting, and he couldn't help but curl his lips.

"Boss Ma is really anxious. He is going to start working on the script as soon as he gets it. I don't know what kind of drama you can make."

Afterwards, he thought of Zhao Yanzi's betrayal of Ma Yun, and a sneer appeared on his face.

It’s just that I have no control over this matter, and there’s no need to remind classmate Lao Ma.

He took out his cell phone and sent a message to Yang Mi: "You and Yuan Shanshan come to my office."

"Brother, what's the good news for calling us here?"

Soon, Yang Mi brought Yuan Shanshan, whose face was full of anticipation, to Cao Yu's office, and enthusiastically touched Cao Yu's neck from behind.

"Go and sit down!"

Since there were outsiders around, Cao Yu pulled Yang Mi's fair arm.

"You're my brother, what are you afraid of?"

Yang Mi didn't care, instead she deliberately showed off in front of Yuan Shanshan.

Cao Yu still took Yang Mi's hand away, and then said to Yuan Shanshan: "There is a play, I recommend you to play the leading female role, you should prepare for it during this time."

"The female lead?"

When Yuan Shanshan heard this, she was stunned.

Did happiness come too suddenly?
Boss Cao shouldn't lie to me, but why did he give me the leading female role?
Is it
Seeing Yuan Shanshan completely stunned, Cao Yu smiled and said, "Yes, you are the leading actress. It is the drama that Zhao Yanzi just announced, called "Palace Lock and Bead Curtain", also known as "Palace 2". You and Mimi are classmates. She is the heroine of the first part, and you are the heroine of the second part."

"Brother, are you interested in Shanshan?"

When Yang Mi heard this, her eyes rolled and she came over to look at Cao Yu curiously. She really didn't understand why Cao Yu recommended Yuan Shanshan?
"Go aside!"

Cao Yu pushed Yang Mi away and said, "In a few days, you can arrange for Yuan Shanshan to audition and get her makeup done, and then arrange an agent for her. You can discuss the remuneration between yourselves. I won't get involved."

"Thank you, Mr. Cao. Thank you so much."

Yuan Shanshan finally believed that all this was true. She excitedly came to Cao Yu and bowed repeatedly, her gratitude beyond words.

I have been waiting for so many years, and finally my day has come.

My classmate and boss Yang Mi became famous after starring in "Palace". Now that I can star in the sequel, maybe I can become a star like her.

But how can I thank Mr. Cao?
When Cao Yu noticed that Yuan Shanshan was staring at him blankly, he guessed that this girl was thinking about making progress.

He hurriedly said, "I arranged this play for you because of Mimi. You should work hard in the studio and help Mimi more in your daily life."

"Oh."

Yuan Shanshan felt a little disappointed that Mr. Cao only asked her to make money for her godsister.

When Yang Mi heard this, she immediately became happy and came over to hug Cao Yu's arm again: "Brother, you are my real brother, you are so nice."

Cao Yu didn't pay attention to Yang Mi first, but said to Yuan Shanshan: "Shanshan, you go back first."

"Oh"

Yuan Shanshan knew that her chance to advance was gone, so she could only leave reluctantly.

When the office door was closed, Cao Yu pushed Yang Mi to lie on the table: "I'll spank you for talking nonsense!"

"Brother, I was wrong, forgive me!"

Yang Mi's plea for mercy was completely useless to Cao Yu, and she was still taught a lesson.

Anyway, Yang Mi also likes this kind of flirtatious little game.

Afterwards, Yang Mi asked, "Brother, am I not included in the filming of "Palace 2"?"

"If you want, you can go and make a cameo appearance, but you have to let Zhao Yanzi show some appreciation. Don't let her get away with it!"

"Hehe, I understand."

"Also, Yuan Shanshan's pay is 150,000 per episode. Not too much, not too little. Zhao Yanzi is backed by Ali, we can't let her get away with it!"

"Brother, do you really hate Zhao Yanzi?"

Yang Mi could tell from Cao Yu's words that he seemed somewhat dissatisfied with Zhao Yanzi.

"It's not annoying, it's really annoying!"

"Then I won't make a cameo appearance. Let them find someone else. I can't help increase the popularity of her drama."

"Mi Mi, you really behaved well after being taught a lesson by me."

"I just like being taught a lesson by my brother."

…………

It is now early November, and there is only one week left until the release of "Love Is Not Blind".

During this period, director Ning Hao put down his work and took several leading actors including Song Qian, Wang Xiaochen, and Wen Zhang to promote the film everywhere.

Both beauties are very pleasing to the eye, which makes this film very popular.

After all, this year's Double Eleven is different from previous years.

However, this year's Double Eleven was also a shopping carnival for e-commerce. Cao Yu was busy promoting Youduoduo and didn't pay any attention to the promotion of this movie at all.

He doesn't care about movies, but Huayi cannot help but care, because their movie "LOVE" will also be released on the same day, also under the banner of Singles' Day.

In terms of the cast, this film is starred by Zhao Yanzi, Shu Qi, Ruan Jingtian, Zhao Youting, Peng Yuyan, Guo Caijie and other stars. In terms of the cast, it is much stronger than "Love Is Not Blind". Even so, Huayi does not dare to guarantee that it can beat Feiyu Entertainment at the box office, but as long as the difference is not much, it will be considered a success, and even if it discusses cooperation with Cao Yu in the future, it will have the confidence.

In the film market, it looks like the two films will engage in a box office war.

The e-commerce market is also full of competition.

In the past Double Eleven, it was just a battle between Ali’s Taobao and Jingdong, but this year Youduoduo also joined the battlefield.

The frog in the boiling water was almost done, so Cao Yu decided to give Mr. Ma another critical hit.

Ma Yun had previously wanted to create a Double 12, but failed because all the traffic was on Double 11, so he could only continue to use Double 11, the shopping festival registered by Jingdong.

His strategy for Double Eleven was to raise the price first, then lower it on the same day, and then offer discounts for group purchases.

But what Ma Yun didn't expect was that Cao Yu didn't play any tricks on her side. He just gave discounts on single products and offered subsidies for group orders.

In particular, Cao Yu is also a shareholder of Huawei mobile phones. As long as he buys Huawei mobile phones on Youduoduo, he can get direct discounts in real money ranging from 199 to 399 yuan.

"Boss Cao, you are too ruthless. Do you really want to eat up all of Taobao's market share?"

Ma Yun was looking at the discounts offered by Youduoduo and Jingdong in the office. Although she knew that Taobao would not die immediately, it would probably be on its last legs after Double Eleven.

"It seems that I still have to put my hopes on entertainment and Zhifubao."

Ma Yun rubbed his head for a while and suddenly thought of something to say.

“If the banks don’t change, we’ll change the banks!”

He suddenly stood up from his chair, thinking that this sentence was simply great, domineering and powerful.

As soon as this is said, it will probably resonate with those who are dissatisfied with the bank, and let everyone deposit their money in Zhifubao, use the 300 million to leverage larger funds, and then I can lend the funds out and expand the business nationwide.

"Yes! Just do it!"

Ma Yun suddenly gained confidence and felt that this time he might be able to turn the tables.

Soon, it was the day before November 2011, 11.

"Boss Cao, the movie tickets for Love Is Not Blind are sold out online!"

Before getting off work, Director Ning Hao rushed into his boss' office with an expression on his face as if he had won a multi-million dollar lottery.

"Don't get excited, I'm busy."

Cao Yu had just sent Ning Hao away when Song Qian also arrived.

"Boss, I'm going to be famous, love you!"

As soon as the mollusk came up, it curled up in Cao Yu's arms.

As long as this movie becomes a big hit, I will become a rising star in the entertainment industry, which is much better than being an idol in Korea.

"Are you tired from the recent promotion? Go back and rest early. I still have some documents to deal with."

Cao Yu has been really busy these days. The drawings of Feiyu Theater have been finalized and construction can begin in the spring. Many expenses need to be approved.

There are also the matters of Youduoduo and Meituan. He recently feels that he seems to be getting further and further away from his dream of becoming a successful businessman.

After sending Song Qian away, Cao Yu thought Wang Xiaochen would come as well, but the girl just sent a message saying "I miss you" and didn't say anything else.

After finishing all his work, Cao Yu was just about to get off work, but Nazha wanted Cao Yu to accompany her to watch the early morning premiere of "Love Is Not Blind" in the evening.

Of course Cao Yu refused, as he had to meet Yang Shuxue in the evening.

The Chinese Super League ended a few days ago. In the last round, Yanjing Huanyu won, while Hengtai was tied by the opponent again.

This allowed Yanjing fans to party for a whole weekend to celebrate their second championship.

In addition to congratulating Yang Shuxue today, Cao Yu also has to discuss inviting Atletico Madrid to China for a friendly match.

When he drove past a movie theater, he was surrounded by groups of young couples, all of whom seemed to be waiting to see a movie.

Since Love Is Not Blind is a Feiyu production, the filming rate in major cinemas is very high, basically around 33%, especially in Huanyu Cinemas, where the filming rate even reached 45%.

This is the advantage of having a cinema chain, you don’t have to do things according to other people’s wishes.

"The original Love Is Not Blind was toxic. Several actors cheated on their partners, practiced Zen with one finger, and divorced. Almost everyone died, except Guo Jingfei who persisted."

Cao Yu glanced at the movie's promotional poster at the entrance of the cinema, thought of the movie before his rebirth, smiled and shook his head.

"I hope Song Qian and Xiao Chen won't be like this."

…………

Nazha didn't make an appointment with Cao Yu tonight, and she didn't want to go to the movies alone, so she had to bring her competitor Reba along for the first time.

In fact, Reba also wanted to see the dance troupe's captain's current acting skills, so she accepted Nazha's invitation.

Although it was a night show, the cinema was still full of people.

At the beginning of the movie, the protagonist Huang Xiaoxian accidentally saw her boyfriend and her best friend on a date, and the story of a broken heart began.

Nazha immediately exclaimed: "Is this the captain's acting? This is too good!"

The screen was very large, and Song Qian, who made her big screen debut, used her eyes to act out the surprise, astonishment, and sadness she felt when she saw her boyfriend cheating on her.

Just this one look made the audience in the theater empathize with the protagonist.

"The boss taught me well."

Reba said lightly, feeling a little unconvinced.

I couldn’t compare with the captain before, but now I’m also the boss’s woman, everyone is the same.

But the captain has already played the leading female role in such a popular movie, while I am still working hard for a role in a TV series.

This gap makes her feel unbalanced.

She turned her head and glanced at Nazha who was watching with great interest, and suddenly an idea came to her mind.

She could see that Nazha was not very cunning and was a bit naive. She could use this kind of person as a stepping stone for herself.

At this time in the movie, the coquettish Li Ke, played by Wang Xiaochen, appeared and was talking about the wedding requirements with Huang Xiaoxian.

Reba leaned close to Nazha's ear and asked, "Do you think they can succeed?"

"what?"

"I mean, this woman is so pretentious, but her boyfriend is so handsome and rich, can they succeed in the end of the movie?"

"do not know…"

Naza shook her head and then said, "Don't spoil it, just keep watching."

"Naza, after watching for a while, I found that feelings can sometimes not outpace time. If we want to continue to be valued by the boss, we should not fight anymore, but form an alliance."

"What do you mean?"

Nazha didn't understand why Reba suddenly said this.

Reba said mysteriously, "Don't you say you have nothing to do with the boss? I've seen you two leave together."

"Ah? What do you know?"

Nazha became nervous. She had a relationship with the boss, but it was still a secret for now.

"Haha, we are all in the same company, there is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable."

Reba said with a kind smile, and then added: "In fact, if we form an alliance and make the boss happy together, then maybe we will be like the captain in the future, understand?"

"..."

Nazha was naive, but she still understood what was said.

Turning to look at the screen, Song Qian was acting opposite Wen Zhang, who was already a first-line actor, and she was not at all inferior to him.

She was tempted.

And she is willing to do so if it can make her boss happy.

Just three people together...

It always feels weird.

Reba saw Nazha's worry and said with a smile: "You will get used to it slowly..."

At this point, the movie reaches the scene where Huang Xiaoxian and Wei Yiran pretend to be on a date.

"I'm different from other girls. Those girls like donkey bags and kuchi bags, but they only cost 250 yuan... Only fools would buy them..."

As soon as this line came out, many men were happy and said to the girls around them: "Look, those bags are not worth tens of thousands of dollars at all. They are all used by capitalists to cheat women out of their money..."

Then, the climax part where the sissy Wang Xiaojian gives the second male lead a beating is extremely satisfying to the audience.

The movie ended, and although it was late at night, many viewers still felt a little unsatisfied.

Although this movie has a simple story and does not have that kind of scene, every actor's acting is superb, and the lines are very down-to-earth with laughter, anger, and scolding, and also have some black humor, which is very good to watch.

However, among the audience leaving the venue, Nazha and Reba, the former enemies, actually left together with their arms around each other.

"Naza, let's sleep together tonight. Let's get used to it first, and then we'll give the boss a surprise tomorrow night!"

"Well, it's up to you."

Although Nazha felt a little embarrassed, she was also looking forward to it.
