1928: The Rise of Giants

Chapter 285 Preparing for a Talkie Film
Cooperation?

Edward chuckled and looked at him with disdain in his eyes.

He knew about the contradiction between Yongxing Company and Ye's Investment.

Although Edward is very unhappy with Ye Luo, a Chinese, he has to admit that Ye Luo's influence in the business world has exceeded that of most foreigners. If the Shanghai tycoons were ranked, Ye Luo would probably be ranked first!
What can he gain by accepting Zhang Wanlin, who has a grudge against Ye's investment?

Seeing that Gui Lao was not willing to help him, Zhang Wanlin quickly handed over a large check that he carried with him.

"Mr. Edward, as long as you are willing to cooperate with me, I agree to any conditions!"

Zhang Wanlin vaguely felt that the matter with the Nissin was not settled. If this continued, he would probably follow in Lu Yusheng's footsteps.

After thinking about it, if the person behind the trouble was Ye Luo, then the only people who could stop him from dealing with him were the foreigners who were protected by the concession.

The Sassoon family is the top force among foreigners.

Victor Sassoon is the richest man in Shanghai. The total capital of the Sassoon family in China alone exceeds 8000 million. He is a big shot that even the principal wants to receive in person!

Next to Edward, Zhang Wanlin didn't believe what else Ye Luo could do to him.

Edward asked the female secretary to take a look at the check. When she saw that there was only 100 million yuan on it, he sneered, pressed the check on the table, crossed his legs and said leisurely: "Zhang, are you really willing to agree to anything?"

"Yes, I'm willing!" When Zhang Wanlin heard what the translator said, he thought there was a chance, so he nodded and bowed.

"Okay, then give me all the shares of Yongxing Company in your hand." Edward wants to follow his father's example and have his own industry and base in Shanghai, and the best way is to acquire Chinese businessmen's companies and transform them into Foreign companies.

Yongxing Company is one of the most famous companies in the French Concession. Zhang Wanlin still holds 25% of the shares. With these, he has more shares than Ye Luo, who only has 15% of the shares.

Zhang Wanlin was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and refused: "Mr. Edward, are you kidding me? This 25% share is the foundation of my life. Without Yongxing Company, what would I do in Shanghai?"

"Shut up! Then get out of here!"

Edward couldn't understand Chinese, but looking at Zhang Wanlin's expression and movements, he knew that he was unhappy. He suddenly turned his face, pointed at the door, and yelled at him to get out.

Zhang Wanlin didn't expect that this ghost guy would change his face as soon as he said it, and the anger he had been suppressing kept rising.

Since when did he suffer from such birdishness?
"Okay, if you don't cooperate, you won't cooperate. Without you, I have a way." Zhang Wanlin gritted his teeth and rushed over to get back the check he had just sent, but he suddenly came face to face with a dark gun barrel.

"GET OUT!" Edward held the check in his hand and held the pistol in his other hand, pressing it against Zhang Wanlin's head.

He can shoot at any time.

And it was in the Sassoon Building.

He will not be punished in any way.

If the other party hadn't been a guy with some status among the Chinese, he would have shot him long ago!

"This is my money, do you understand?" Edward pressed the barrel of his gun against his head and said every word.

Zhang Wanlin didn't understand, but his legs were already weak from the pistol.

"What did he say?"

The translator was also shocked and hemmed and hawed through the translation.

"Okay, okay, I understand. I'm leaving now, right away." Zhang Wanlin raised his hands and gave in at the speed of light.

The translator quickly spoke to Edward.

Edward then took away his pistol, pointed at the door, and shouted in half-baked Chinese: "Get out!"

Zhang Wanlin left the Sassoon Building in despair. He was so angry that he called his younger brother to beat the Chinese worker who kindly translated for him with an iron rod.After beating him unconscious, Zhang Wanlin threw the cigarette in his hand at the translator, then gritted his teeth and said: "Let's go, drive to the Japanese Consulate General immediately."

three days later.

The patrol room released Lu Lanchun and Xue Heng, and the charges of adultery were not found guilty. Huo Tianhong could only watch the two sleep together.

That day Lu Lanchun returned to Huo Mansion to pack her things, and was escorted by people invested by Ye's family.

Huo Tianhong simply left Huo Mansion and went to Yongxing Company, out of sight and out of mind.

In three days, Song Ziwen received countless calls. Finally, tired of scolding, he just let him figure it out. Then he asked Tang Fulu to come to Shanghai and keep an eye on Huo Tianhong at all times.

The Verdys were also restless.

After the Nissin incident, their relationship with Ye Luo reached a freezing point. Only then did they realize that Ye's joint venture banking model, which only required dividends and had no management rights at all, was a bit of a trap for them.

But there is no way.

If you want to compete with Ye Luo in business, you are courting death.

Without Ye Luo, they could not investigate the situation in Taihu Lake. After breaking up with Ye Luo, Fan Erdi also found that he had no one to speak to in the Chinese business circle in the French Concession.

The three tycoons of Yongxing Company had never dealt with the consulate, and now the public board of directors was still arguing with them about the issue of Chinese directors. Most of the other Chinese tycoons favored Ye Luo.

Isolated.

Verdi deeply felt the power of this word.

We can only hope that the seizure team of the Security Command can recover the goods.

There is also his money in there.

In the past three days, Ye Luo was the most relaxed one.

He welcomed back Xiao Aqiao who returned from Taihu Lake.

Little Ah Qiao handled things beautifully and lived up to her expectations.

At the same time, Wu Shikui and others were gathered back and placed in Ye's Security and Ye's Sports.

Today, Yip's Security and Yip's Sports have become the "Whampoa Military Academy" where Yip's investment has stabilized the production of talents.

As long as they have outstanding abilities, have completed several missions, and are confirmed to be innocent, some will be sent to the Songhu Police Department, while others will go to the Yeshi Industrial Park Guards.

The more outstanding group were selected to join the arsenal's guard force and receive more military training. Most of these people were former disciples of the Jingwu Sports Association.

With the implementation of the Huade military cooperation project, Ye Luo and Max have a series of factories and plans, and will recruit a large number of elites from the Ye family.

Of course, these things are secrets that ordinary people cannot see.

Since the Sino-French Pharmacy's health care product series and "The Goddess", Ye's investment has been quiet for a while. The biggest business recently is the expansion of the entertainment industry brought about by the New Year's Eve dance.

Everyone is waiting for Ye Luo's latest news and curious about what new business the second young master will do.

Ye Luo did not disappoint. On the headline of the application on January 1, a promotional advertisement for Ye's Film Company was published.

The first sound film in China is about to begin preparations.

The script was adapted by Ye Luo himself. The original work was Zheng Zhengqiu's stage play "The Noble and the Prisoner". The new film is called "Sisters", starring Hu Die and Ruan Lingyu!
Just looking at the list of producers and actors, movie lovers are looking forward to it.

And this is a legendary talkie!
