PS: My condition hasn't been very good recently. Physically and mentally, I'm very tired. My left shoulder was hit today, and it's still swollen and painful. As for my hand, the skin is cracked. It's really cold and painful! But I still have to thank kakuwinter for his support! Thank you!
"Come, let me introduce you. They are the president of Huayi Brothers Management Agency, Liu Tao. The general managers are Zhou Siwei, Fei Qi, and Liu Na! I don't need to introduce him. Hurry up and curry favor with him! "
At the banquet, almost all the free artists under Huayi Brothers were present. They even invited many reporters. Naturally, the other executives of Huayi Media Group were also present. This gave Xu Zhixuan face!
Everyone knew that Xu Zhixuan was a shareholder of Huayi Brothers. This banquet was specially held to welcome Xu Zhixuan. However, when many artists arrived, they realized that the scale of the banquet was a little too big, which made them suspicious.
However, the four people who were pulled over by Wang Zhonglei knew that Xu Zhixuan had been doing a lot in Korea recently. Especially after acquiring Lotte Cinemas and forming an alliance with CJ, they directly controlled half of the Korean cinemas. Especially for people in the entertainment industry, how could they not curry favor with such a tycoon?
"President Xu, this is the first time we meet. I'll drink first as a sign of respect. Please do as you wish!"
As the president, Liu Tao was the first to speak. Only then did the others toast. Xu Zhixuan also smiled and took a sip. It wasn't that he was reserved, but it was a matter of attitude. After all, he didn't need to care about the other party's feelings. It was the other party who was trying to make friends with him.
Moreover, the scale of today's banquet also let Xu Zhixuan know the Wang brothers' plan. However, this was also what he wanted. In the past, Xu Zhixuan kept a low profile because he had no choice. Now, with his own strength in Korea, he could naturally announce that he was the third shareholder of Huayi Brothers. Then, he wouldn't be afraid of the other shareholders joining forces to exclude him. After seeing the Wang brothers arrange a director position for Xu Zhixuan, he knew the other party's attitude.
Therefore, in some matters, as long as one's own strength was respected by the other party, then one's status would naturally be raised to the same level as them. At this time, no one would have any objections even if one interfered at this time.
If Xu Zhixuan had insisted on interfering with the company's operations when he had just taken over Huayi Brothers' shares from Ma Yun, the Wang brothers would have definitely joined forces with the other shareholders to ostracize Xu Zhixuan. That was why Xu Zhixuan had directly stated that he would not interfere with the company's operations. That was why the Wang brothers treated him so warmly!
"Director Xu, we're family. Look, our company's artists have already established themselves in the mainland. Shouldn't we arrange for them to go abroad to gain experience? Even if they fail, at least the people below will know what's going on!" The one who spoke was Zhou Siwei. Among these people, he was the one with the most ambition for Korea.
Zhou Siwei had been in the entertainment industry for close to 10 years. He had been involved in publicity, production, and artist manager. In 1993, Tan Yonglin's concert was personally planned by Zhou Siwei. Zhou Siwei had recently signed An Yixuan and Chen Zihan. The popularity of these two beauties in TV dramas was not to be underestimated. Zhou Siwei's "Discerning Eye" was already a well-known brand in the entertainment industry.
Especially since he had an artist under him who had a good relationship with Xu Zhixuan. That artist was Huang Xiaoming. Even in Korea, Huang Xiaoming's looks could be ranked in the top 10. With connections and good looks, Zhou Siwei was very confident that Huang Xiaoming would enter Korea. Needless to say, most of the artists under him were idols with outstanding looks. They really fit the needs of the Korean entertainment industry!
Although Xu Zhixuan's smile was still there, his eyes gradually turned cold. The way he looked at Zhou Siwei also changed. In your eyes, as long as you say a few words, I will do it for you, right? Are you my boss?
Actually, Zhou Siwei couldn't be blamed. Who asked Xu Zhixuan to chat with everyone at the reception banquet? His attitude was very friendly. Zhou Siwei misunderstood. Xu Zhixuan's personality was not bad, so he impudently asked Xu Zhixuan for help. After all, a crying child gets milk. However, he forgot the difference in status between the two of them!
"Siwei, you're drunk. Hurry up and apologize to Chairman Xu!"
As the CEO, Liu Tao had been watching Xu Zhixuan the moment Zhou Siwei spoke. When he saw Xu Zhixuan's expression change, how could he not know that Xu Zhixuan was already disgusted? He quickly spoke up to remedy the situation!
"Chairman Xu, please forgive me. I was drunk and said the wrong thing. I accept my punishment!"
As Zhou Siwei spoke, he downed three glasses in a row. Only then was Xu Zhixuan satisfied. He wasn't disgusted by the other party's request, but because of the difference in status between the two of them, even if he wanted to make a request, he had to be careful with his tone. He didn't want to make it seem like they were very close. Zhou Siwei's face was nothing. If he had to give face, it should be the Wang brothers!
What do you mean by subordinates know what to do? Aren't you just reminding me in a roundabout way that the artists under Huayi Brothers are under your control? Now that you want to interfere with the company's operations, you have to give me some benefits. Naturally, Huayi Brothers will have their eyes on Xu Zhixuan's resources in the Korean entertainment industry!
Wang Zhonglei stood to the side and watched coldly. He didn't say anything to help. He just wanted to see how Xu Zhixuan would respond. If you want something, you have to give something in return. This was the rule of the game. Today's situation was also ordered by Wang Zhonglei. Otherwise, Zhou Siwei wouldn't have dared to be so frivolous.
"If you want something from me, then you have to give me something of equal value. Arranging for a few artists to enter Korea is a piece of cake for me. To put it bluntly, have you heard of SBS Television, one of the top three TV stations in Korea? As long as I'm willing, I can arrange for people to film there at any time! "
Xu Zhixuan's words were specifically directed at Wang Zhonglei. Especially SBS Television. Everyone's eyes lit up. What could be easier to enter the Korean market than a TV series? Just look at the Korean actors now. Didn't they rely on China's TV series to enter the industry?
"You're right. An exchange of equal value is a matter of course! Come, let's toast to CEO Xu's words! "
When Wang Zhonglei heard what he wanted to hear, he also laughed. Since Xu Zhixuan's entry into the board of directors was a foregone conclusion, but if he wanted to interfere with the company's operations, if he didn't make Xu Zhixuan give something in return, not only would he and his brother not agree, even the other board members wouldn't let it go. Now that he heard Xu Zhixuan's intentions, he knew that the other party was willing to give something in return. After completing the task his brother had given him, Wang Zhonglei also heaved a sigh of relief. He pulled Xu Zhixuan over to drink.
"CEO Xu, I'm Fan Binbin. Let me toast you!"
Just as the few of them were chatting and laughing, Fan Binbin, who was dressed in a bright red evening gown, walked over with a glass of red wine and joined the group. Everyone had different expressions. Xu Zhixuan was a little surprised, Wang Zhonglei frowned slightly, and the others were a little surprised, but very quickly, relieved.
"Master Fan, of course I know you!"
After clinking glasses with Fan Binbin, Xu Zhixuan smiled and took a sip. The moment Fan Binbin drank, he turned his head and winked at Wang Zhonglei. Wang Zhonglei had a helpless expression. Obviously, he was a little uncomfortable with Fan Binbin's sudden appearance! However, he was really helpless against Xu Zhixuan's teasing. It was simply too embarrassing.
He, Master Wang Zhonglei, had played with countless women, including many female celebrities. However, it wasn't as if he hadn't caused a stir before. He had even made the headlines with a few of them. However, the news about him and Fan Binbin had always been mentioned and criticized by everyone. Master Wang Zhonglei felt really helpless. Wasn't it just playing with a female celebrity? Ask the boss of any entertainment company who hadn't played with a female celebrity before. Why would they insist on not letting him go?
Especially when he saw that Xu Zhixuan had obviously seen the news about him and Fan Binbin. It had even spread to Korea. It was really too embarrassing. He really wanted to find a hole to hide in. Unfortunately, he didn't know that Xu Zhixuan was one of the gossipers about his relationship with Fan Binbin in Feng Yu's previous life.
"How would I dare to let boss Xu call me master? I'm just a little girl!"
Xu Zhixuan chuckled and didn't answer. If you really treated Fan Binbin as a little girl, then you should be prepared to be schemed against by her. In Feng Yu's previous life, Xu Zhixuan had once read a rumor on Tianya. It said that Fan Binbin had once threatened to die in front of Wang Zhonglei's house. Although he didn't know whether it was true or not, Xu Zhixuan felt that there was no smoke without fire. (Alright, this is a rumor. Yes, it's fake. Remnant Flower was obsessed with a certain entertainment novel. The novel depicted Fan Binbin in such a way. Fan Binbin's fans shouldn't come looking for me.)
"What are you doing here?" Wang Zhonglei didn't avoid Xu Zhixuan and directly questioned him.
Unexpectedly, Fan Binbin only sneered and replied, "Didn't you see it? I'm just here to propose a toast to boss Xu! "
"You …"
Seeing that Wang Zhonglei was angry, Xu Zhixuan laughed and stopped him. He said, "The two of you, today is a welcome party for me. Come, don't be angry. Let's have a toast!"
It was obvious that the relationship between the two of them was very complicated. However, Xu Zhixuan didn't want to get involved. He didn't see Liu Tao and the other three remaining silent when facing the two of them. It seemed that this wasn't the first time such a scene had happened!
It wasn't Fan Binbin's fault. In the past, he didn't have the capital. But ever since Wang Jinghua's defection, Fan Binbin decided to stay. Just this title alone was enough to benefit Wang Jinghua immensely. The entire company's resources were all geared towards the artistes who stayed behind to help them rise to the top. Especially after Fan Binbin opened his own studio, it could be said that Wang Jinghua could no longer do anything to Fan Binbin!
"You guys continue. I saw a friend!"
Xu Zhixuan saw Yang Ying appear and frowned slightly. It was obvious that she had just arrived. However, when he called her, she was obviously filming with the set. However, since she was here, Xu Zhixuan naturally had to go over. After all, the two of them were well aware of each other's feelings. Xu Zhixuan didn't mind arranging a mistress in China!
"Why are you here? Aren't you filming? "
"It's because I miss you!"
