Chapter 455 Gifts are coming

Apart from those film and television bases, there are not many fun places in Hengdian.

Originally, he just came to see Zhuang Muxi, and the next day after the social event, Fan Wumian prepared to return to Gangcheng.

The details of the cooperation with Hengdian International Group will probably take a long time to discuss. There is no need for him to wait here in person. If there is anything, the teams on both sides can communicate.

After repeated consideration.

Fan Wumian already has some new ideas.

For example, the premise of cooperation between the two parties is that he takes the leading position in the joint venture, and it would be best if he could hold the majority of shares.

The reason is that there are many tricks in the entertainment industry, and it is really hard to feel at ease handing over the account books to others. It doesn't matter if you make less money, but if you miss the precious development opportunities, the losses will be huge.

Moreover, no one is more experienced than him in terms of how to select scripts, which TV series and movies to distribute, where to open cinemas, which companies to cooperate with, etc., so many detours can be avoided.

If Hengdian International Group does not agree to let go, Fan Wumian can also try to cooperate with Wanda and some state-owned enterprises. It is not necessary to cooperate with this company.

I was busy eating alone before.

Now that the business has grown, we need to win over more allies to eliminate negative influences and prevent ourselves from being besieged and dragged down.

If he leads the entire project and takes advantage of the opportunity to enter the distribution and theater market to tie some large companies in the circle to the carriage, such as Guangxian Media, Wanda, etc., future development should be smoother.

The separation of theater chains has been implemented in the United States a long time ago, but no one cares about it in the country.

If the upstream and downstream industrial chains are opened up and the company can venture into short videos, news media and other fields in the future, it may have the opportunity to create a "huge empire" in the cultural and entertainment industry.

The Penguin Group will continue to be managed by Xiao Ma and his team, so Fan Wumian doesn't need to worry too much. His own celebrity career has almost no room for advancement in both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong, and his head is hitting the ceiling.

It would be nice for him to find something new to do. He doesn't want to retire so early.

When eating shredded pork noodles in the restaurant in the morning.

A middle-aged man with a round face, short stature, and wearing a suit suddenly greeted Fan Wumian enthusiastically and asked:
"Mr. Fan! Hello, my name is Cen Zheng. I opened an entertainment company in Yanjing. I just came to Hengdian to do business last month. I wonder if you could do me a favor and talk to me for a few minutes?"

He was probably afraid that Fan Wumian would ignore him.

Cen Zheng then held up a long box and said with a smile:
"I bought this painting of Zhang Daqian's "Heavenly Girl Scattering Flowers" some time ago. The price was not high, just over 100 million RMB. I am a rough man and don't know how to appreciate it, so I want to give it to you, Mr. Fan, to make friends with you."

Cen Zheng thought he was a nobody, so he brought a generous gift as a stepping stone.

Actually.

As soon as he showed up, Fan Wumian vaguely recognized this Cen Zheng. He seemed to be the financial backer behind Ying Tian, ​​the "rich and beautiful woman" in the rumors of his previous life.

When I think of that fair-skinned young actress with a unique temperament, I feel from the bottom of my heart that she is so lucky.

Fan Wumian stretched out his hand to let the bodyguards pass, motioned for Boss Cen Zheng to sit opposite him, and asked directly:

"You brought me such a big gift. It must be a bit hot to hold. What do you want from me first?"

When businessmen give gifts to each other, there are not as many taboos as among civil servants.

Boss Cen Zheng placed the box on the dining table and explained with a smile:

"It's just a small matter. My company is too small and we don't have enough resources to promote anyone. I recently met a good talent and wanted to let her take advantage of your influence, Mr. Fan. I just need to arrange a role suitable for her in the crew."

"This painting, 'Heavenly Girl Scattering Flowers', is quite special among Zhang Daqian's works. It was kept by the master for several years. The prototype was one of his North Korean geisha lovers."

"I bought it five or six years ago. It's worth at least three or four million now. I hope you will accept it."

Fan Wumian's ability to create stars is obvious to all.

The opportunity to play an important role in his work is not too expensive at three or four million RMB. As long as you become successful and famous, you can earn back the cost sooner or later.

He was just using this thing as a stepping stone to try to get to know Fan Wumian. Boss Cen Zheng didn't think that with his identity and status, he would care about such an item.

The fact is, Fan Wumian felt that Zhang Daqian's works had great potential for appreciation. He wanted to accept this generous gift to blow the whistle on the bad social trends, but he was worried that his behavior would be too embarrassing and he would lose face.

So. He continued to eat his noodles without changing his expression and said:

"What's the name of the person you recommended, male or female? If I come across a suitable role, I might use it without you telling me, but it's a little inappropriate to arrange it like this. It's not fair to the other actors."

Boss Cen Zheng saw that he did not completely refuse, and immediately felt that there was hope, and he added with a cheer:

"She must have a good foundation, so I will help you find a way and will never make it difficult for you, Mr. Fan. She is a female artist I signed, her name is Ying Tian."

"In fact, she has worked with your company before. She released a single in the first half of the year, and director Lu Hao helped shoot the MV."

"Two months ago, I filmed the movie 'Anaconda' with Hong Kong stars Lau Ka Fai and Ba Liang Jin, and I am preparing for the entrance exam to the Beijing Film Academy."

"."

Originally it was just a guess, but now it is almost certain that it is correct. Fan Wumian looked strange and said jokingly:

"Boss Cen has a very young mentality. He is less than 20 years old, right?"

"It's not the kind of relationship you think. He was born in 1988 and just turned 18 this year."

Although he himself was not much better, Fan Wumian still despised the bad habits in this circle.

He raised his chin, did not continue to ask, and only said to Boss Cen Zheng:
"I haven't washed my hands yet. Could you please open it and let me see it?"

"it is good!"

Boss Cen Zheng felt more and more that he had chosen the right gift today.

He had searched for information online beforehand and discovered that Fan Wumian had once asked Mr. Wu Guanzhong to buy a painting that contained a huge corporate logo for Zhang Shanzeiwang Media.

That's why I thought that giving this painting by Zhang Daqian might make it easier to get things done.

The colors and composition of this painting "Heavenly Girl Scattering Flowers" are beautiful. Fan Wumian liked it very much after seeing it. He nodded his finger to indicate that it should be taken back and said:

"Okay, I'll remember that. Next time I have a chance to go to Yanjing, I'll find a time to meet her. If I meet a suitable role, I'll help keep an eye out for it."

"Okay, okay! This is my business card. Call me when you go to Yanjing. I'll treat you to a meal. My friend opened a private restaurant in Dongjiaomin Lane. The food is very good. Last year, when Jack Long came to Yanjing, he also went to my friend's restaurant to try it."

In order to make his girlfriend happy, Boss Cen Zheng spent a large sum of money without any regret, and he was overjoyed to be able to get things done.

The reason why Ying Tian starred in "Anaconda" was also because Cen Zheng invested a sum of money and used some connections to give her the role of the heroine.

I have to say that this "beautiful lady" is really well taken care of.

Let’s finish talking about business.

Boss Cen Zheng did not continue to disturb Fan Wumian while he was having breakfast, but left on his own accord.

Then I recalled the words "find a time to see her".

Boss Cen Zheng would never dare to arrange a meeting between Yingtian and Fan Wumian, because Yingtian has been his fan for a long time. Not only does she like listening to his songs, she also went to see "A Quiet Place 2" last month.

Arranging for the two to meet is equivalent to sending the girlfriend to meet her dream lover, right?
Boss Cen is not worried that Fan Wumian will steal his love, but he is worried that his girlfriend will be distracted and have love in her heart.

Although he thought he had good conditions, he was nothing compared to Fan Wumian. He was completely crushed in terms of appearance, so much so that he immediately felt a sense of crisis.

The outside world is not aware of the exact transaction price, but it is widely rumored that Fan Wumian spent hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars to purchase a hybrid sailing yacht.

This price was an astronomical figure in 2006, which attracted widespread attention and once again elevated his image as a wealthy man in people's minds.

after that.

His studio simply issued a statement saying that the money was earned from investments in the United States, trying to avoid people thinking that "being a celebrity is very profitable."

Since Fan Wumian's labels of "domineering boss" and "genius investor" are already deeply rooted in people's minds, although there are many spectators watching the show, no one is too surprised and the negative impact is still within the controllable range.
