Movie tycoon

Chapter 710 It's not easy to be a good boy (one more)
When Chen Xiaotang returned to the hotel with his wet Oscar, he saw his parents sitting majestically on the sofa in the hall, looking at him, as if they were going through three sessions.

"Cough cough, Mom and Dad, why are you still awake?" Chen Xiaotang said guiltily.

"Where did you go so late?" Mom asked.

"Isn't this a celebration with friends?"

"Friend, male or female?"

"What does it matter?"

"It's a big deal, it's fine if it's a man, but if it's a woman, heh heh!"

"Mom, what do you mean by humming?"

"It means... are you with that witch Madonna?"

"Why don't witches want to be witches? It's so ugly. No matter what people say, she is also a pop queen!"

"I think she's a dirty queen! I've never seen such a woman who kidnapped someone's son in front of her mother!"

"What, isn't he trying to save me!"

"Save your head!" Li Shuzhen slammed the table.Instead, Chen Fugui who was beside him was taken aback, which was purely a "conditional reflex". "It's obvious that she has a conspiracy, I have already seen it!"

"Mom, stop thinking about it, there is nothing between us." Chen Xiaotang made up his mind, and refused to admit it even if he was beaten to death.

"Really? Old man, check the injury!"

"What, injury check?" Before Chen Xiaotang could figure it out, he saw his father, Chen Fugui, walking up to him, lifted his collar to look, and said, "Yes, and there are many!"

Chen Xiaotang: "...?!"

Dad whispered: "Baby, you are too careless, you can eat it secretly, and let someone plant so many 'strawberries' around your neck!"

"What do you have to say now?" Li Shuzhen asked.

"I..." Chen Xiaotang was speechless.

"Don't kneel down for me!"

"What?" Chen Xiaotang was surprised.

Dad Chen Fugui: "Hurry up, kneel first...it's nothing, just remember to swap your knees and don't hold on." Chen Fugui taught on the spot with his experience.

Chen Xiaotang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he was such an adult, did he really kneel down?
"Mom, it's not that serious..."

"Why is it not serious?!" Li Shuzhen looked at her son, "Why, you are so amazing now that you don't even listen to my words, and you don't even want to kneel down?" His eyes began to turn red.

Seeing that my mother is about to "tear", my father, who has been fighting with my mother for nearly 30 years, has no way to crack this "killer trick", let alone Chen Xiaotang. Once soft, he knelt down.

Who would have thought that Chen Xiaotang, the all-powerful and resounding superstar in Hollywood, would kneel down to his mother here like a child.

If this news gets out, it will definitely shock the entire media world.

"You said, were you wrong?"

"Where did I go wrong?"

"You still dare to quibble?! Hook up with that demon girl, do you think you are worthy of Ah Weng and the others? Fortunately, before they left, they dragged me to give you this sweater or something. I think you have lost your conscience!" Mom casually threw the sweater scarf or something on Chen Xiaotang's body.

Looking at the hand-knitted items, Chen Xiaotang saw the images of Weng Meiling and Guan Zhilin knitting sweaters stitch by stitch.

Chen Xiaotang suddenly felt ashamed.

"Well, what else do you want to say?" Li Shuzhen looked at her son, "I...I have nothing to say." Chen Xiaotang sighed and lowered his head.

Seeing her son concede defeat and admit his mistake, Li Shuzhen also sighed, and said: "Sai Zi, don't look at your mother, I am usually confused and make a lot of jokes when I do things, but for my future daughter-in-law, I only look for it." Those few... are also women, and I know that they treat you well, so I hope you can be worthy of them. In this way, even if I go back and see them, I will have the confidence..."

Chen Xiaotang bowed his head again and shut up.

Seeing that her precious son had already been educated, Li Shuzhen stretched out an arm and asked Chen Fugui to stand up, saying, "I'm tired after sitting for a long time. I'm going back to rest. Think about it!" Then the old couple So he swaggered back home, leaving Chen Xiaotang kneeling on the ground alone, with nowhere to say desolate.

……

Time flies, and after staying in the United States for about ten days, the old couple Chen Fugui and Li Shuzhen, as well as Fa Ge and Hua Zai, couldn't sit still. In their bones, big guys are restless people.Especially Brother Fa and the others, each of them has something to play with.When I was filming, I felt so hard and tired, but when there was no filming, I felt that life was very boring.Alas, there is no way, maybe this is an occupational disease, or a cheap problem.

So ten days later, Chen Fugui and his group clamored to go back. As his son, Chen Xiaotang certainly hoped that his family and friends could stay for a few more days, but he also understood that the big guys were not used to living here.So after arranging my own work, I helped the big guy buy a ticket to fly back to Hong Kong.

On the day of the farewell, as a mother, Li Shuzhen couldn't help but shed tears again, so Chen Xiaotang couldn't help handing her tissues to wipe her tears.

The boss, Chen Fugui, looks like a man who is self-improving, but his eyes are actually red.

After all, I have to part with my son again.

I don't know when we will see each other again.

The son is getting higher and higher on the international stage, but the parents feel that the son is getting farther and farther away from them.This feeling is very uncomfortable.

As for Brother Fa and the others, they punched Chen Xiaotang one by one, "Take care!"

Just three words, endless friendship.

As for Zhou Xingchi, who regarded himself as Chen Xiaotang's future brother-in-law, he gave a thumbs up before leaving, "Ah Tang, I'm proud of you!"

Seeing this, Chen Xiaotang immediately raised his middle finger, "If you treat my sister badly, I will never forgive you!"

Just like that, family and friends flew back to Hong Kong.

Chen Xiaotang resumed his usual busy work status.Compared with Chen Xiaotang, his best friend and best friend, Fatty Wang Jing had a very happy life these days.

Although he didn't have time to attend Chen Xiaotang's Oscar ceremony, Fatty Wang Jing felt that he didn't suffer at all. The reason was that Chen Xiaotang asked him to take charge of Sony Records' affairs temporarily. Those Japanese who like to make money would curry favor with him when they saw the change of boss. As we all know, the Japanese are very good at flattering people, and their level of flattery is even worse than ours.

And they find out each other's preferences, and they will hit with one hit.

As a result, the fat man spent the whole day drinking and drinking, as if he was in Ginza, Japan, eating, singing, bathing... enjoying all the difficult things.

Fatty was in a difficult situation at first, but for the sake of national hatred and family hatred, he was old-fashioned, and he would not refuse any women who were brought by the Japanese. Of course, he also reported this to his exclusive superior Chen Xiaotang. Chen Xiaotang's instructions were, Please take care of your body!
At first he thought that this kind of life was heaven, but soon the fat man realized that it was actually hell.

You try to drink and drink for a month. If you eat too much ginseng, you will get tired of it, let alone this kind of thing.

Just when Fatty's eye circles were black, his legs were weak, and he was walking weakly, Chen Xiaotang finally started a new round of film development plan, calling Fatty and others back to the nest to discuss big plans.

American Magic Shadow Entertainment Group Corporation.

In the large conference room, there were many high-level executives from the original Sony Records, as well as many important members of Fox.

After everyone was seated, Chen Xiaotang didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

First of all, in terms of records, Chen Xiaotang will expand the VCD market in an all-round way, and then pack the king of Michael and the queen of Madonna, and tailor the latest VCD album for them.

In order to let all fans enjoy the audio-visual feast, Chen Xiaotang requested that in these two albums, they should shoot MV stories that are as wonderful as movies.

Prior to this, star singers also shot MVs for their albums, but due to cost considerations, most of them were shoddy, even the early MVs of Tianwang Mike were mostly shoddy.

This time, Chen Xiaotang proposed to create a high-quality product and use the filming mode, which immediately got everyone's response, but the problem also came out immediately, that is, the cost increased, what should I do?
To this, Chen Xiaotang's answer was, "Since we are creating high-quality products, we should increase the selling price."

However, as soon as this sentence was uttered, someone objected: "The original record price has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so raising the price rashly will not be worth the loss."

Chen Xiaotang also seemed to have considered this aspect earlier, saying: "Of course we will not raise the price rashly. We can first hold a new album concert for the king Michael and the queen Madonna, and then announce the new album situation at the concert, including the production of The process, the cost, etc. Let them understand how classic this album is and how worthwhile it is.”

To put it bluntly, a concert is a new album release, gathering fans for promotional activities.

It is conceivable that Chen Xiaotang's repeated fights are enough to make fans all over the United States eagerly await the new album of this pair of heavenly kings and queens. After all, they like new things, pursue new fashions, and especially like to compare. These factors exist, no matter how expensive an album is. Worry about selling.

Just when the big guy was thinking about whether Chen Xiaotang's sales strategy was feasible, Chen Xiaotang dropped another bomb.
Facing everyone present, Chen Xiaotang said: "In the future, the world's record market will gradually become saturated, and the purpose of people buying records will change from idol worship at the beginning to leisure and entertainment. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new form of music. entertainment records, opening up the future leisure and entertainment market, and this new form is called --- family karaoke!"

“Family Karaoke?!”

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused a lot of discussion among the big guys.

"What is this?"

"Have you messed up?"

"It sounds very fresh!"...

Karaoke first originated in Japan. Due to Japanese customs, if a man goes home too early, his neighbors will look down on him. He thinks that he works every day without even having a social event, and he becomes a joke for others when he comes home too early every day. Many Japanese men gather in bars or teahouses after get off work, and chat until late before returning home. Later, they gradually feel that they should find something new to kill time, and use the TV microphone while drinking in the bar. And other simple things that can be used to sing, and later evolved into the current nightclub karaoke with the development of technology.

Seeing that everyone was full of curiosity about this, Chen Xiaotang explained: "As the name suggests, family-style karaoke is to move the karaoke activities that were originally held in the private rooms of nightclubs to your home. You can enjoy the feeling of singing with you without going out. What's more, we VCD records can be specially produced some accompaniment discs to match the family model. For example, if the grandmother likes to sing Cantonese opera, we will specially make some Cantonese opera accompaniment discs. If children like to sing nursery rhymes, we can make some nursery rhyme accompaniment discs. ...In short, for different groups of people, we offer different tailor-made products to catch all potential customers who like to sing!" Chen Xiaotang waved his fists, saying it with confidence.

He said here that everyone in the audience was thinking quickly.

In the past, karaoke was basically a nightlife activity enjoyed by fashionable men and women, or rich and wealthy businessmen.Like old men and old ladies, children can't get in touch with this kind of thing at all.But now Chen Xiaotang's whimsical way of popularizing the new model of karaoke using VCD is simply a brilliant personal idea.

Think about it, who doesn't like to sing, even a dumb person likes to hum, let alone a person with perfect five notes.If such a market can really be opened up, not to mention North America, Europe and Asia, it is enough for everyone to explore.

Fatty Wang Jing has been temporarily in charge of Sony Records recently. Although eating, drinking and having fun is a lot of fun, he basically has a grasp of the work flow, as well as internal development and operation.

Before Sony Records was acquired by Chen Xiaotang, it was hit too hard. Although Chen Xiaotang used the "crushing machine to crush the cassette" to make millions by surprise, after all, he couldn't pull Sony out of the quagmire.Now, Chen Xiaotang's plan to popularize family-style karaoke is right at the heart of Sony's development.

It is thought that as long as it can occupy one-third of the home market in North America in the future, then Sony Records under Moying can be brought back to life and make great strides forward.

Seeing that everyone is thinking carefully about the bold plan he proposed, what Chen Xiaotang is thinking about is the situation after the widespread use of karaoke in his previous life. .

The kind of hot sales that all the people are soldiers on is absolutely unimaginable to everyone. Not only the sales of rap and music discs have exceeded [-] million, but the sales of VCD players alone are enough to build an electronic empire.

It can be said that building family-style karaoke and popularizing VCD is definitely a two-pronged way to make huge profits.

A brief 3 minute consideration time.

Fatty Wang Jing was the first to raise his hand in agreement. "I agree!" he said.

Others also raised their hands.

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

……

Chen Xiaotang did not expect that everyone would support his plan so unanimously, and nodded with great satisfaction, "Well, since everyone has voted to agree, this plan will be in charge of Mr. Wang Jing... A Jing, you have to pay more attention in the future, hurry up It’s time to draw up a plan for me.”

Fatty didn't expect that he would be able to take the lead and get such credit, and he immediately promised with a big smile: "Got it, I will take care of things, don't worry!"
