Chapter 193 Weighing (two in one)

Father Liu laughed and said, "How could it be? It was just a joke. It was just a joke. No one would take it seriously."

When the two met for the first time, there was a big age difference between them. If they really became brothers, even if they could talk to each other, it would be too silly.

"So that's it." Liu Shishi patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Speaking of which, you two were filming with the crew. Didn't you know that he lives in our community?" Liu's father was very curious.

Liu Shishi just lowered his head to stir the porridge in the bowl, blowing on it from time to time, and the porcelain spoon jingled when it hit the wall of the bowl, making a crisp sound.

She laughed and said vaguely: "I only know that he lives at my sister's house. I haven't asked about other things. We don't know each other very well."

She didn't have the eyes to see, she really didn't have the eyes to see, Liu Ma held her forehead, her daughter's words were half true and half false, she couldn't help laughing, and the corners of her mouth twitched twice.

"What's wrong, toothache?" Father Liu was a little worried and got up to get painkillers.

Mother Liu glared at him and stuffed a bun into the old man's mouth with a sullen face: "Can you talk less?"

Father Liu was embarrassed, pinched the bun and said with a smile: "Eat, eat."

After hastily finishing breakfast, Liu Shishi hid in the bedroom, lay on the bed and started sending messages.

Liu Shishi: "Are you there?"

Lu Yuan: "Once upon a time, there was a quail. All other quails of the same species laid eggs in the afternoon, but it was the only one that laid eggs in the morning, so others called it the early quail egg."

Lu Yuan: "Early quail eggs."

Liu Shishi: "Humph, you are the quail egg, the big quail egg. I overslept and you didn't even call me."

Lu Yuan: "It's my fault."

Liu Shishi: "Did you meet anyone when you were running just now?"

Lu Yuan: "It's fun to meet an uncle."

Liu Shishi: "Then what?"

Lu Yuan: "The uncle said he had a daughter, what was her name? Well, suddenly I can't remember it."

Liu Shishi threw the phone aside and rolled over on the bed.

Tired, destroy it.

Huayi, in the office.

After listening to Fei Lin's statement, Wang Zhongjun wiped out his cigarette butts, frowned and asked, "Borrow money?"

"Yes, he said he wanted to buy a villa and original shares of the company."

Wang Zhongjun tapped his index finger on the table and asked, "How much do you plan to borrow?"

"2000."

"He has earned a lot of salary in the past two years. There is no reason why he needs to borrow so much. Are housing prices so high now?" Wang Zhongjun was a little confused.

He suddenly came to his senses and asked suspiciously: "Is there a company that has been secretly contacting him recently? Cheng Tian and Hai Run cannot be from Tang Dynasty."

Having participated in several phenomenal blockbuster film and television dramas, Lu Yuan is now firmly on the front line. The media calls him and Huang Xiaoming the twin stars of Huayi. It is not impossible for someone to poach them.

Fei Lin shrugged: "As far as I know, not yet."

The atmosphere was dull, and he added: "Do you still remember when he came to the company to buy copyright some time ago?"

At the beginning of the year, Lu Yuan bought the online copyrights of several movies from Huayi for the simple reason that they would be used for collection.

"How much can a few Internet copyrights cost?" Wang Zhonglei waved his hand and didn't take it seriously. In the current market environment, Internet copyrights are just useless and tasteless.

He rubbed his temples, pondered for a few seconds, and said: "Lu Yuan's contract expires in two years. Give him a contract extension. If he agrees to sign, 2000 million will be approved."

Fei Lin asked with a hint of meaning: "What if he doesn't want to."

Wang Zhongjun frowned suddenly. If Lu Yuan refused to renew the contract, he would not pay a penny according to his original temperament. He might even hide it or block the other party.

But the situation is different now. Huayi is about to go public. We must try our best to avoid such things from happening. If there is an incident where a popular niche student runs away, the gain will outweigh the loss.

For asset-light private film and television companies, the box office and ratings of film and television products are only temporary, and the company has no evaluable assets that can be relied upon and held for the long term.

Therefore, as the main productive force in creating box office and ratings, actors, screenwriters, and directors naturally become important and evaluable intangible assets of the company.

The reason why brothers Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei opened their original shares to artists signed by the company is that they hope to use the luxurious star lineup to help Huayi obtain the ideal issuance price when it goes public.

With Lu Yuan's current fame, it is obvious that he can contribute to the dream of the Wang brothers.

To put it bluntly, the introduction of celebrity shareholders is actually a capital carnival conspired by the company and the artists.

The company hopes that film and television celebrities will stimulate market attention, satisfy the rational expectations of institutional investors, and ultimately sell its shares at a high price.

Celebrity hopes to obtain capital income through holding shares, and both parties get what they need.

After pondering for a while, Wang Zhonglei said solemnly: "If he refuses to sign the contract, I will give you half."

There are still two years until the contract expires, so there is no need to do anything absolutely. Withholding 1000 million is regarded as a knock, and it is also an indirect statement of attitude.

"Okay, I'll go back and inform him." Fei Lin nodded, turned around and left the office.

"puff."

Wang Zhonglei lit another cigarette, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and stared at the noisy crowds on both sides of the street. There were long queues of vehicles at the intersection and horns blaring one after another.

Looking down from a high place can always give people the illusion that everything is under control, but there are no absolutes and exceptions to everything.

He thought for a while, turned around and picked up the landline phone on the table: "Siwei, about Xiao Ming's contract renewal."

No one of Huayi’s twin stars can be left behind.

In the early days, there were many jugglers in Tianqiao.

Lu Yuan always wanted to come here before, but it was not interesting to play by himself, and he was busy filming, so he never came.

After settling the company's loan, he made an appointment with Liu Shishi, drove the car, passed through Beijing West Railway Station, then passed the Temple of Heaven, and arrived at his destination in another 2 minutes.

Near Tianqiao Theater, there is an old-fashioned small building.

Walking in, there was a dark narrow passage with a window selling tickets.

There is a food stall in the alleyway a little further away, and the smell of garlic wafts from a distance.

Liu Shishi foolishly thought he was spreading pancakes and fruit, but when he got closer, he discovered that it was fried enema, a Beijing snack.

After taking the tickets and going in, the waiter at the door shouted: "Here you are, take your tickets. The tickets will never leave your hand, and the person will never leave the ticket. You can sit down with your ticket, please!"

The sound was quite loud, Liu Shi narrowed her eyes like a cat, and Lu Yuan covered her ears with a smile.

The waiter led the two of them into the room. It was a teahouse, quite spacious, with two floors.

The bright red brocade curtain on the stage is embroidered with auspicious clouds, and on the door beam at the entrance of the stage in the middle is a picture of wealthy peonies in bloom and scattered leaves.

There are many soft chairs in the lobby on the first floor, and the private rooms on the second floor are all partitioned by cedar boards.

There is a couplet on both sides, wine flags and drums are played in Tianqiao City, and many tourists do not remember their home.

Liu Shishi pulled him into the private dining room on the second floor. There was a small table next to him, with several snacks and a pot of tea on it.

Before long, a young man in a long gown came up to the stage, said a few words, meaning that tonight's cross talk was about to begin, and announced the name of the person who was about to appear on stage.

Next, a young man in a yellow gown came onto the stage and gave a stand-up comedy.

He is also very good at speaking. He said "I am eighteen years old this year" and made the audience burst into laughter.

Since him, all the performers on stage have been stand-up comedy.

Most of the actors are unfamiliar, but one or two are slightly famous.

But they all have their own skills, and they all have their own unique skills when it comes to praising, teasing, and singing and reciting.

Liu Shishi ate two melon seeds and felt very boring lying on the chair. She was glad that she didn't learn storytelling from her godfather.

I couldn't help laughing when I thought of myself standing on the shelf wearing a long coat and looking stupid.

Seeing that the stinky man was not looking away, he reached out and poked his arm, tilted his head and asked: "So you only borrowed 1000 million from the company?"

Lu Yuan looked away from the stands and said with a smile: "Well, I didn't agree to sign the contract immediately."

"Then you don't have to worry."

"I didn't explicitly refuse, I'm just not satisfied with the signing fee. Besides, there are still two years until the contract expires. Who knows what will happen in the future." Lu Yuan snatched a peanut from the girl's hand.

"Hmph!" Liu Shishi rolled his eyes at him and simply handed over the remaining one, holding his chin, worried: "What if?"

Lu Yuan peeled a melon seed, looked at it and stuffed it into her mouth, and said, "Just in case, I know it." He discussed this matter with his second uncle. Although his second uncle didn't understand the world of film and television, he knew what important things were. I told him a lot about assets and what light assets are.

He also mentioned that the essence of the so-called stock market is to tell stories to draw up the pie. If Huayi wants to tell good stories, it must rely on celebrities to support the scene.

As for contract renewal, it can be delayed as long as it takes.

"Oh." Liu Shishi responded, chewed two melon seeds, and his face suddenly wrinkled: "Bah, bah, bah, this one is bad."

She stretched out her hand to pinch him. This guy was so annoying. He always tried to bully her.

Lu Yuan grabbed her wrist, took out a tissue and wiped her mouth, left and right, then folded the paper and wiped it twice.

Liu Shishi pouted, inexplicably feeling that this gesture was familiar. She gradually realized that this was not rubbing her buttocks. She gritted her teeth with a fierce look in her eyes.

"Hey!" Lu Yuan kissed her and said, "Let me tell you something funny. The uncle I met downstairs yesterday morning was wearing the same T-shirt as me."

Liu Shishi was immediately embarrassed: "Ah, really, what a coincidence."

Lu Yuan stared at her and smiled: "Then uncle still wants to recognize me as his little brother."

The two of them talked a lot while running yesterday. As they chatted, they found out that the uncle's surname was Liu, which building he lived in, and that he had a daughter at home.

Mr. Lu is such a thief. He decisively recounted all the theoretical knowledge about tea and fishing that he had heard from his father.

After a lot of flattery, Liu's father wanted to pull him over to him if he met his confidant, which scared him, but fortunately it was just a joke.

"Oh, you're making so much noise. Can you please be quiet? I want to listen to the cross talk." Liu Shishi covered his ears.

"Didn't you say you hated it just now?"

"I've changed my mind now."

Lu Yuan pulled her over, held her in his arms and rubbed her, bit her ear and said, "If you have anything nice to say, listen to me tell you about uncle."

Liu Shishi's face flushed red to the base of his neck, his eyes widened, he pursed his lips, wishing he could turn his head and give him a bite.

Lu Yuan laughed, and at this moment two more people came up on the stage, wearing mandarin jackets, one tall and one short, both quite strong.

The short man has a protruding belly, a short stature, a very big head, some hair but not much, and a peach mark on his head.

As for the one with a slightly taller head, Lu Yuan was very familiar with it. Ya asked him to introduce the car model, and he approved one.

Liu Shishi hugged her twice and said, "They are the only ones who are a bit interesting."

"There is bright moonlight in front of the bed. I suspect it is frost on the ground. I raised my head and looked at the bright moon." The short fat man took a picture of Jingmu and said, "My name is Guo Degang."

After saying the opening remarks, the fat man said: "Yesterday, a friend asked me how to chase a girl. I thought it was too simple."

"How do you say it?" said the car model next to him.

The fat man touched his head and said, "I told him to buy a toothbrush and toothpaste, and at seven o'clock every morning, he would squat in front of someone's house and brush his teeth on time."

"What's the use of this?"

"Let the neighbors mistake you for her boyfriend."

"Ok?"

"It's been a long time since no one has chased me. Sooner or later, the girl will be yours."

"Hey, you can only come up with this idea."

The fat man sighed again: "The main reason is that my friend looks ugly, if..."

He glanced down the stage, then looked at the second floor, raised his hand and pointed: "If I had the looks of the handsome guy upstairs, I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble."

When Liu Shishi saw the audience looking up, he got up and returned to his original position.

Lu Yuan reacted faster, pressed her head into his arms with a snap, and then stretched out his arm to block her face.

As for himself, wearing a mask and hat, it was not a big problem. He smiled and waved to the two people on the stage.

The audience below looked at the two people and laughed.

Guo Degang continued to act poor on the stage, occasionally complimenting the car model with a few words, which was always just right.

The two of them have really good lines, and they don't repeat a word, and they are very smooth and comfortable to listen to.

After listening for a while, another group of people were replaced, and their skills were obviously far inferior. Liu Shishi felt bored and wanted to leave. Lu Yuan had no choice but to agree.

Driving past the Tianqiao Department Store, Liu Shishi made a fuss in the passenger seat asking for a drink of water, probably because he had eaten a lot of melon seeds.

Women are so annoying!

He had no choice but to stop the car and buy a cup of Youlemei from a milk tea shop with little eyes on the roadside.

Since Jay Chou became famous, he has been favored by brands. In the past two years, his endorsement style has changed and he has begun to follow a people-friendly approach.

If the cups are connected together, they can circle the earth. This advertisement is being bombarded on every major TV station.

"Here, your Yulemi."

Liu Shishi took it with a smile and took a sip happily: "Why don't you just buy one cup?"

Lu Yuan waved his hand: "I won't drink it, it's too sweet."

The two of them didn't get in the car anymore, and just wandered around the department store. The old woman's cosmetics were ruined a lot by the little guy. She had been very grumpy these past two days, so he thought of buying some goods.

Liu Shishi drank the milk tea very slowly, sipping it in small sips, her cheeks puffing up from time to time, cute.

After maybe staring for a long time, she handed over the milk tea hesitantly: "Want to have a taste?"

Girls seem to have the habit of biting straws. Lu Yuan licked his lips, leaned over and took a big sip: "Gulu gulu~"

Seeing that the glass was half full, Liu Shishi was stunned.

Her eyes flashed like spring water, and she smiled gently: "Brother, if you don't run away now, what are you waiting for?"

Lu Yuan burped, turned around and ran away. She held a pink fist and chased after him.

"Smelly man, I'm going to kill you!"

There are many bad men and women like them in the shopping mall, chasing each other, laughing and playing, young, and full of hope for love and the future.

When they passed each other, their faces showed similar happiness and sweetness.

This era is so simple. When you go shopping, you go shopping. When you fall in love, you fall in love. If you like it, you hold it and chew it. If you say we are together, we are really together.

"Ouch." Liu Shizhui took two steps and squatted down, covering his feet and shouting softly.

Lu Yuan guessed that she was most likely fooling people, and said tentatively: "Are you okay?"

Liu Shishi raised his head, blinked twice with watery eyes, pouted, and sniffed, looking pitiful.

Ouch, Mr. Lu couldn't stand the look in her eyes. Knowing that there were tigers in the mountains, he chose to go to the tigers in the mountains, so he ran over and helped her up, and then it was time for a happy beating.

"Hiss, it hurts." Lu Yuan bared his teeth.

Liars, women are liars!
Liu Shishi smiled very softly and kept making small movements with his hands, saying, "Brother, why don't you run away."

Lu Yuan glanced at her sideways: "Let me go if you can."

While they were fooling around, his cell phone suddenly rang in his pocket. He took it out, looked at it, and said nonsense seriously: "Why is it that uncle running downstairs?"

Liu Shishi was stunned, then stretched out his hand to grab it: "How do you have his mobile phone number?"

Lu Yuan raised the phone high, made a shushing gesture, and answered the call: "Hello, Teacher Wang."

Only then did Liu Shishi realize that he had been deceived by him again, and kicked him angrily.

"Teacher Wang, say it."

"."

After chatting for a few minutes, Lu Yuan hung up the phone and turned around to see Miss Liu taking photos of him with her cell phone in her hands. The silver bracelet on her wrist was dazzling in the sun.

He smiled and compared, and before the other party could ask, he spread his hands and said, "Teacher Wang asked me to meet a director tomorrow and said he would introduce a play."

"Teacher Wong?"

"That's my class teacher at university, Wang Jinsong."

"Which director?"

"Jiang Wei."
