In the afternoon, Xiao Yunhai returned home reeking of alcohol.
Zhao Wanqing poured him a cup of tea and said, "Hubby, tomorrow is the day of the Hua Xia Cinemas Auction. How's it going?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Don't worry. I called Yu Hai, Hu Yaoting, and Peng Huaibin a few days ago. They all said there's no problem."
Zhao Wanqing said, "You've been working on the post-production of 'Inception' these few days, so you don't know the current situation. I heard from Dad that there will be hundreds of people attending the auction tomorrow. Among them, there are more than a hundred billionaires. Not only in our country, but there are also many foreign businessmen joining in. The eight major Hollywood studios are also very interested. "
Xiao Yunhai asked, "What's wrong? Are the cinemas going to be opened to foreign companies? "
Zhao Wanqing rolled her eyes and said, "From today onwards, Hua Xia's entertainment industry will be completely commercialized. As long as it doesn't violate Hua Xia's laws, there's no difference between domestic and foreign companies. Therefore, they naturally have the right to buy Hua Xia Cinemas. "
Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "That's troublesome. Once Hollywood companies get the cinemas, I'm afraid Hua Xia's film industry will suffer a huge blow. "
Although Hua Xia's film industry had made great progress in recent years, it was still far from Hollywood.
If they got the Hua Xia Cinemas, there would be no restrictions at all. Hollywood could film hundreds of movies a year and wreak havoc in Hua Xia. It was hard to say if Hua Xia's film companies could stop them.
Zhao Wanqing said, "Let's see what happens tomorrow."
At this moment, Xiao Yunhai's phone rang. He opened it and saw that it was Kree calling.
Xiao Yunhai smiled bitterly, "Look, even the prince of MGM Grand is here. It seems like they are really determined to win."
After that, Xiao Yunhai picked up the phone.
"Hey, Xiao, did you miss me?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "You're a man, what's there to think about? Speak, what's the matter? "
Kree said, "Hurry up and pick me up at the airport. I just got off the plane."
Xiao Yunhai asked, "How many of you came?"
Kree giggled and said, "A total of more than forty people. However, you don't have to worry about the others. You just need to pick me up. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Alright. Wait for me there. "
After hanging up, Xiao Yunhai said to Zhao Wanqing, "I'm going to the airport."
Zhao Wanqing pulled him back and said, "You've been drinking. Let me drive and accompany you. I have nothing to do anyway. "
An hour later, the two of them arrived at Beijing International Airport. Xiao Yunhai immediately saw Kree waiting for him at the exit.
Seeing that there were too many people coming and going, Xiao Yunhai was afraid of being recognized. He simply dressed up in the car and then walked to Kree and said, "Kree, don't make a sound. Hurry up and follow me."
When Kree heard that, he did not say anything and followed him into the car.
After seeing Zhao Wanqing in the driver's seat, Kree said with an exaggerated expression, "Wan Qing, I'm so happy to see you. You're getting more and more beautiful. "
Zhao Wanqing turned her head and smiled, "Thank you for your praise. Kree, may I know why you're here this time? "
Kree said, "Of course it's for your country's Hua Xia Cinemas."
Xiao Yunhai's brows furrowed when he heard this, and he said, "Kerry, all of Hollywood has come?"
"Of course. The eight major Hollywood studios are preparing to join forces and buy one or two cinemas of Hua Xia Cinemas to ensure that our movies can be freely screened in Hua Xia in the future. You know that we're not short of money now. "
Indeed, the eight major Hollywood studios were all rich through the sale of American cinemas.
This was definitely not a good thing for Hua Xia.
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing looked at each other and said, "Kree, are you preparing to launch a large-scale attack on Hua Xia?"
Kree smiled and said, "Of course. Hua Xia's box office is ranked second in the world, second only to America. We definitely won't let it go. Actually, we've been preparing since last year. Just wait and see. In less than a week, the eight major Hollywood studios' branches in Hua Xia will be established one after another. "
Xiao Yunhai sighed and said, "Next, I'm afraid Hua Xia will enter the stage of warlords fighting for hegemony."
Kree said, "That's right. In order to be able to make the first move, our MGM Grand's first movie is' Dinosaurs', which we've been working on for two years. Then, it's' Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone ', which we invested in together. "
Xiao Yunhai asked in surprise, "Has Harry Potter been completed?"
Kree nodded and said happily, "It's almost done in two months. Xiao, how's' Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone 'selling in Hua Xia? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "It's very good. The Chinese version sold 16 million copies and the English version sold 4.2 million copies. It can be considered to have laid a very good foundation for the movie. "
Kree smiled and said, "It's too good. When the movie is released, the box office will be very good. "
Xiao Yunhai asked, "Kree, are you hungry? Do you want to have a meal first? "
Kree said, "Of course. Let's go to Quanjude. The roast duck there is my favorite."
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing accompanied Kree to eat roast duck. Originally, they wanted to invite Kree to stay at their house, but Kree refused.
He was the person in charge of this MGM Grand film company. He needed to go back to the hotel where they were staying to meet everyone.
The reason why he asked Xiao Yunhai to come over was just that he wanted to eat roast duck.
Hearing his words, Xiao Yunhai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said, "You're just a greedy cat. I really admire you."
After sending Kree to the hotel where he was staying, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing went home to rest.
At 9 o 'clock the next morning, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing arrived at the auction site of the Hua Xia Cinema Line by car.
At this time, the venue was already full of people, all dressed in suits and leather shoes, with an imposing manner. Obviously, they were all high-ranking people.
It must be known that if you want to enter, everyone must first pay a deposit of one billion Hua Xia dollars, so ordinary people simply don't have this ability.
The arrival of the two attracted the attention of many people, especially the slightly powdered Zhao Wanqing. Her graceful appearance caused the eyes of many pot-bellied CEOs to shine.
Tian Junhao, who was sitting next to his uncle Li Guoke, looked at Zhao Wanqing without blinking, his face full of obsession.
Li Guoke saw his nephew's appearance and frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything.
Zhao Mingsheng was chatting with Xue Tianhua and others. When he saw his daughter and son-in-law, he waved to them and motioned for them to come over.
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing walked hand in hand to Zhao Mingsheng.
At this moment, Xiao Yunhai suddenly felt a sinister gaze.
Turning his head, he saw Xia Chengfeng's face was ferocious and his eyes were coldly staring at him. He didn't hide his hatred for him at all, as if he wanted to eat him in one bite.
During this period, Hongda Film and Media Company had been cheated by Xiao Yunhai. Because of him, Hongda Music was swallowed up by Hu Yaoting, causing the stock to plummet by 30% and suffering heavy losses. The special effects technology that was bought for hundreds of millions of dollars was on the verge of falling behind, and the initiator was still Xiao Yunhai.
After calculating, Xiao Yunhai's recent actions caused Hongda Film and Media Company to lose at least billions.
As the Crown Prince of Hongda, it would be strange if Xia Chengfeng didn't hate him.
Xiao Yunhai didn't care about Xia Chengfeng's resentment at all. Instead, he smiled at him.
The two were like fire and water, and it was nothing to add a little hatred.
