At that moment, a steady and powerful voice came from behind Xiao Yunhai.
"That's because Yunhai is a shareholder of Paramount Cinemas."
Xiao Yunhai turned around and saw that it was the Hollywood action superstar Li Xuanwu, who had just walked out of Hua Xia.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Big Brother Xuanwu is here too. “
The others also greeted him.
Wang Guoan, Liang Hui, and the others were all veteran artists. Before Li Xuanwu went to Hollywood, everyone was very familiar with him.
Liang Hui said, "Old Li, you just said that Yunhai is a shareholder of Paramount Cinemas?"
Li Xuanwu nodded and said, "That's right. Let me tell you, the polite Mr. Xiao in front of you is not an ordinary person. In Hollywood, his status is much higher than mine. Even the bosses of the eight major movie studios have to treat Mr. Xiao with respect. Releasing an action movie there is just a matter of a word from him. "
Hearing Li Xuanwu's words, everyone looked at Xiao Yunhai in disbelief. At the same time, they all had the same thought. 'This kid is too amazing.'
Xiao Yunhai smiled bitterly and said, "Big Brother Xuanwu, don't brag for me. If my 'Valiant Heroes' can't go to America, then I'll be very embarrassed. "
Li Xuanwu laughed and said, "If even a shareholder of Paramount Cinemas can't release his movie, then it'll only be if Paramount goes bankrupt."
Yao Na patted Xiao Yunhai's shoulder and said, "Don't be so humble, kid. I didn't expect my brother to be such a big shot. In the future, I'll be counting on you to support him. "
Xiao Yunhai was about to speak when Xia Hongda of Hongda Film and Television suddenly walked over and said, "It's a pity that Mr. Xiao's Magic Visual Effects is going to be finished soon. His good days in Hollywood are coming to an end. Am I right? Mr. Xiao. "
Xiao Yunhai narrowed his eyes and said, "Director Xia, you're quite well-informed."
Wu Zixu frowned and asked Li Xuanwu softly, "What happened?"
Xia Hongda smiled. "Director Wu, let me tell you. The reason why Mr. Xiao could do whatever he wanted in Hollywood and why all the companies respected him was that his Magic Visual Effects was the best in the world. All the film and television companies needed his special effects patented technology. But now, Columbia Pictures has developed better technology than Magic City. Therefore, Magic City can no longer maintain its position as the world's number one. Naturally, its good days will come to an end. "
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Xiao Yunhai, whose expression did not change.
When Xia Hongda came over, Wang Mingsheng was worried that he would cause trouble for his daughter and son-in-law, so he followed them.
Hearing his words, Zhao Mingsheng asked Zhao Wanqing, "Wan Qing, is what he said true?"
Zhao Wanqing said softly, "Dad, Columbia has indeed developed better special effects technology. However, you don't have to worry. Yunhai has already taken care of it. It won't have any impact on Magic City. "
Zhao Mingsheng nodded and said, "That's good."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Did the eldest son of the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Culture tell you? Haha, it's really like the old saying, birds of a feather flock together. If you're not a family, you won't enter the same house. Only Director Xia and his son would have a heart-to-heart with that shameless Tian Junhao. "
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly held it in, not allowing themselves to laugh out loud.
After all, Xia Hongda's company was one of the top three companies in Hua Xia. Offending him for no reason was not a good thing for the celebrities.
However, Xiao Yunhai's words were too classic. Everyone had a hard time holding back their laughter, and their expressions were very strange.
Xia Hongda said angrily, "Xiao Yunhai, you're too uneducated. That's what your parents taught you. "
Xiao Yunhai snorted and said, "My parents taught me not to be greedy for riches, not to be swayed by poverty, and not to be subdued by power. Not to do good because it's small, and not to do evil because it's small. They're all ordinary teachers who haven't seen much of the world. They can't compare to your Xia family's upbringing. They look like humans, but they don't do anything. "
"Pfft."
Hearing Xiao Yunhai's words, a few celebrities who were easily amused couldn't help but laugh directly.
They quickly turned their heads to avoid being misunderstood by Xia Hongda as laughing at him.
Xia Hongda was so angry that his whole body shook. He pointed at Xiao Yunhai and said, "Good, very good. Let's see how long you can be arrogant. Tomorrow, Columbia Pictures will announce the news. Just wait for Magic City to be finished. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Chairman Xia, you might be disappointed."
Xia Hongda snorted and said, "Let's wait and see. Let's see how long you can be stubborn. "
After saying that, Xia Hongda turned and left.
He really came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Is Xia Hongda here to be scolded? After scolding, I'm satisfied, but he's gone. "
Everyone else laughed.
Yao Na pointed at Xiao Yunhai and said, "That mouth of yours can anger people to death. But what he said, it can't be true, right? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Technological innovation is a good thing. I've known about Columbia for a long time. Don't worry, it's not a big deal. "
After a while, the bosses who were preparing to set up the special effects studio came to Xiao Yunhai, probably because they heard the news.
Xiao Yunhai told them to find a place to talk to them in detail after the opening ceremony.
Two hours later, the gathering ended. Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing invited Xue Tianhua of Tianhua Media Film and Television, Zhang Huafeng of Huafeng Film and Television, Chu Heng of Brilliant Entertainment, and his father-in-law, Zhao Mingsheng, to a tea house.
Xue Tianhua said worriedly, "Yunhai, is what Xia Hongda said true?"
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "It's true. Columbia Pictures' special effects development team used three years to come up with a new special effects technology. Compared to Magic City, it's much more realistic and efficient. "
When the bosses present heard this, they all frowned.
Xue Tianhua and the others were all bosses of the entertainment industry and stood at the top of the pyramid. They had sharp eyes and naturally knew that the future of film and television was absolutely inseparable from special effects. That was why they spent a lot of manpower, money, and material resources to set up their own special effects company.
In the past, Hollywood wouldn't transfer special effects technology to them. If they wanted to make good effects for their own movies, they could only go to Hollywood. Not only were they treated with disdain, but they were also treated as fat sheep to be slaughtered. But they had no choice but to endure it.
Now, Hua Xia had finally produced Xiao Yunhai and obtained the Magic City's special effects patent. Just when everyone thought that their bitter days were over, they didn't expect Columbia to develop an even better special effects technology.
It was as if a basin of cold water had suddenly been poured from the sky, making them feel cold all over.
Chu Heng sighed and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter. Our country originally had a very big gap with them. Now that we have Magic City, it's much better than before. At the very least, the gap has been reduced to a distance visible to the naked eye. There are so many talents in Hua Xia. I think we'll be able to catch up with them sooner or later. "
Wang Mingsheng chuckled and said, "Yunhai, don't keep us in suspense. I heard from Wan Qing that you personally went to Hollywood last month and settled this matter. "
When the others heard this, they all looked at Xiao Yunhai expectantly.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Dad, just let me pretend for a while more. We rarely have the chance to see the expressions on Mr. Xue, Mr. Chu, and Mr. Zhang's faces now. "
Xue Tianhua laughed and pointed at Xiao Yunhai, saying, "Well done, Yunhai. It turns out that you've already settled the matter. You made us worry for nothing. "
Chu Heng and Zhang Huafeng saw that the situation had taken a turn for the better and their expressions became much better.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Everyone, you don't have to worry at all. Columbia's so-called special effects technology was actually built on the foundation of Magic City's special effects to achieve success. It's not so much an innovation as an improvement. I've already signed a contract with Columbia. Their patents will include 50% of mine. Therefore, you don't have to worry. However, if we use new special effects technology, the price might be different. Because I don't have the right to set the price. "
Chu Heng heaved a sigh of relief and said, "I see. Hehe, the money issue is easy to solve. An additional 100 million or 200 million in patent fees is not unacceptable. "
Zhang Huafeng nodded and said, "That's right. In the past, when I went to Hollywood to do special effects, they cheated me of no less than 200 million. "
Xiao Yunhai thought for a moment and said, "Dear bosses, since we're all business partners, I'll tell you something. I hope that you can talk about importing Columbia's special effects technology in two months. There might be a turn for the better in the future. "
Xue Tianhua and the others looked at each other and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Don't ask me why. I definitely won't tell you. In short, you'll be right to listen to me. Don't tell anyone about this matter. There are some companies that I need to warn. "
After hearing Xiao Yunhai's words, the three of them thought for a moment and said, "We understand. Thank you. "
Everyone drank tea for a while before leaving together.
