Director’s Legend

Chapter 284: 【Mumbai Incident】

"On October 7, 2008, the "Hurun Report 2008" was released. This is the tenth consecutive time that the Hurun Report has released the Hurun Report. Last year's Hurun Report was ranked 800th on the list, with a threshold of 8 100 million yuan, this year increased to 1,000, with a threshold of 700 million yuan. Shao Shuaijun, 22, became the richest man in China with a fortune of 63 billion yuan. Huang **** and Du **** ranked second and third.

The Hurun Report is being reported on TV: "The average wealth of the entrepreneurs on the list is down 22% from last year, mainly real estate rich, but there are still 102 billionaires in China. Shao Shuaijun, who made the list for the first time, directly paid 63 billion yuan. His wealth has become China’s new richest man, and Shao Shuaijun has also become the first Chinese to become the richest man in his adulthood."

Hurun is a Chinese expert and speaks fluent Chinese. Others accumulate wealth. He depends on others’ wealth to achieve his own wealth. He can be described as a smart person. He appears on the screen: "This year we are very happy to find that the Hurun Rich List appears With many new faces, our richest man is a 22-year-old young man from scratch, Shao Shuaijun. He not only tops the list with more than 20 billion fortunes than the second richest, but also the first Chinese to become the richest man on the list for the first time. He is still at the top of Hurun's strong list and Hurun it's richest list."

"Shao Shuaijun’s main wealth comes from corporate listings and movie box offices. He is one of the few richest people in the entertainment industry on the 100 rich list. Our team has studied Shao Shuaijun’s wealth accumulation process and found that the potential of the Dream Entertainment Group is very huge. Chaoyang Industry, next year, may be the richest man again and create higher wealth. At the same time, we have also discovered that Dream Chasing Entertainment Group not only created Shao Shuaijun, but also ranked 23rd on the list of richest women with a net worth of 2.3 billion yuan. Li Xiuxiu from China, Yi Jianmei, who ranked 36th on the list of rich women with a net worth of 1.5 billion yuan, and a large number of rich executives, this is a rare phenomenon in the past."

"It has been rumored that Summit Entertainment may be listed in New York next year. With Summit Entertainment's profit prospects, it is not difficult to raise tens of billions of dollars in listing. Shao Shuaijun may become the first super-rich with assets of more than 150 billion yuan..."

Watching the broadcast on TV, Shao Shuaijun was speechless for a while. I called again to ask Li Xiuxiu: "Wife. I just watched the Hurun Rich List. Do I have so much money? Sixty-three billion, it's about to reach 10 billion US dollars. Really?"

"Fake." Li Xiuxiu replied simply. "I have calculated. With the company shares you currently hold, the total assets should be between 40 billion and 42 billion. However, it is difficult to define a definite value for some businesses. So the fluctuation is a bit large. How about, How does it feel to be the richest man?"

Shao Shuaijun laughed: "Is it okay? I'm just a little worried. I heard that the Hurun Rich List has been called the Hurun Killing Pig list again. Who is on the Hurun Killing List again, isn't it?"

"We are sitting on the table and we are afraid of something. Those rich people on the list fell off the horse because they used illegal means to gain wealth. We are serious in business, we make money in the film department, and we make very popular games, as well as on the Internet. Occupy half of the country, what can I use to investigate us. I was also selected as a rich female, and it feels great."

"Haha, that's right. When Summit Entertainment and Dream Chasing Games are both on the market, maybe I can also be the top few of the richest people in the world, and then my wife, you can also be on the list of the richest women. We will join forces to create A money empire."

"Okay, then we will travel around in a private jet, and then go fishing and surfing on the yacht. Haha, I'm excited to think about it. So what should I do if I can't spend so much money?"

Shao Shuaijun grinned: "It's not easy. If we don't finish spending, we will give birth to a rich second generation and continue to spend."

"What rich second generation, look at what you said..."

"Hey, when I finish my work for a while, we will implement the great plan of man creation."

"Fuck you, who is going to give birth to you, I'm going to have a meeting, I'm hanging up. Go and dream about it."

After hanging up the phone, Shao Shuaijun shrugged: "Women, duplicity, I heard the old sister say a while ago that she accompanied you to several confinement centers and asked about giving birth."

After watching the TV broadcast for a while, Shao Shuaijun felt bored. The Hurun Report may be very attractive to ordinary people. Because everyone has a dream of wealth, but for the rich people who are on the list, I hope that they will not be on the list. Going up is equivalent to being exposed to the public's attention.

Those who hate the rich, or the media, will surround you like flies, and then prepare to destroy you from the cracks. If there is an illegal behavior, it is a big hidden danger. Shao Shuaijun didn't care. He was law-abiding. Even if he raised some second-generation officials, he just protected himself and didn't use these second-generation officials to engage in illegal activities.

I just hate the feeling of treating you as a rare animal, as if watching you. He has no intention to act as a representative of the Chinese dream, nor does he intend to become the richest man in a glamorous appearance, and participate in this kind of mess. As long as he can make movies and enjoy life, it is the life he is looking forward to.

He aspires to be the king of the world because of his recognition of his abilities, rather than paying attention to the jumbled news about him. He is a director, not a monkey to be watched. But life is like this, especially when you enter the entertainment industry, you either treat others as a monkey, or others treat you as a monkey. It's hard to say, but that's the truth.

Turning off this kind of grandstanding news, Shao Shuaijun began to read the report on the table. This was the technical report on imax-3d that he specially asked the crew of "imax-3d Yupu Tuan" to organize daily. As an ambitious director, Shao Shuaijun is obsessed with this high-tech.

He doesn't go to the crew often, but the report insists on watching it every day to recharge himself.

After watching it for a while, Zhang Huahua knocked on the door and came in: "Boss, there is a call from India, the crew is in an accident."

"what happened?"

"I don't know. Director Danny Boyle called. He didn't tell me he asked you to call. He is waiting."

After the call, Shao Shuaijun knew what was going on there. The staff of the crew were all detained by the local underworld because it involved a human trade. When Danny and the others were shooting, they accidentally broke the deal of the local human traffickers, and then a deputy director called the police with a sense of justice. This angered the other party and took out the gun on the spot.

Fortunately, although the deputy director had a sense of justice, Danny was not stunned. He was softened on the spot, prepared to lose money and then treated it as a deal that hadn't seen them, turning big things into small things. but. Obviously the alarm call broke down. The involvement of the Indian police has made the situation amplify and complicated.

The underworld traffickers detained the crew in order to protect themselves. On the one hand, the Mumbai police are not prepared to compromise with human traffickers; on the other hand, human traffickers are holding hostages. In the end, the crew of "Slumdog Millionaire" was at stake. Danny had no choice but to ask Shao Shuaijun for help.

After receiving the news. Shao Shuaijun could no longer sit still. He immediately called Mitchell and asked him to ask the American ambassador to India to come forward, and he himself called the Chinese ambassador to India. Pressure from both sides to make the Mumbai government not act rashly and ensure the safety of crew members.

"Xiaohua, book a ticket and we will go to India."

Fortunately, Hong Kong's flights are very developed and it is very convenient to go to India. I got on the plane to India in a while. After several hours of flying, I landed at Mumbai Airport. Just after getting off the plane, Li Xiuxiu called.

"A Jun, did you go to India?"

"I'm already in Mumbai."

"What are you going to do in India? Wouldn't you let the other people in the company go? This is a triad incident. You are not invited to give a speech, Ajun! Come back quickly. Let the Indian government handle this matter. We will wait for the news and the result will be good." Li Xiuxiu said eagerly.

Shao Shuaijun comforted and said: "Don't worry about my wife, I came to Mumbai just to follow the progress of things, after all, I am a producer. I am not a counter-strike elite, to deal with the underworld, I hope to come over to put pressure on the Mumbai government, after all. What I say is also a bit of social status. The US ambassador to India and the Chinese ambassador to India are very familiar with me and can mediate from them."

Although India is dirty and messy, the public security in Mumbai is pretty good. At least there is no such thing as the rumors of being strong on the street or bus wheels.

"No, no matter what you say, I will come back immediately."

"My wife, stay calm, I'll be fine. I won't go out at the Embassy in Mumbai, OK. I just pay attention to the situation. You also know that if there are casualties, it will have a great impact on our company. This filming is a tripartite collaboration between China, India, and the United States, especially in the United States. Once we know that the crew has killed a major event, it is estimated that it will fall out. I must come in person and urge Mumbai to do my best to guarantee. Safety of personnel."

"But I am worried about you."

"I've never been a hero, I can't die."

"Have you been a hero? No, I can't let you be in India. You are going to the embassy honestly now. Don't walk around, I will fly over now."

"no need?"

"have to!"

Soon I drove to the Mumbai Police Station and met Danny Boyle and the two ambassadors. After getting to know them, everyone began to discuss countermeasures.

"Shao, the traffickers insist that the police remove the police force so that they can leave Mumbai calmly. But the Indian police have been setting up the Internet for a long time, and they are unwilling to let the traffickers. They say that once the traffickers re-emerge into the poor, it will be very difficult. It's hard to catch them again." Danny said hurriedly.

Shao Shuaijun nodded and asked, "Two ambassadors, what do you think should be done now?"

The Chinese ambassador to India said: "We have already called India to show up, hoping that they will take the safety of the crew as the top priority and not act rashly. We will continue to exert pressure to let the Mumbai police rescue the hostages first.

The US ambassador to India also said: "Hollywood has cooperated with Bollywood many times, and we have encountered this situation before. The Indians dare not do anything to us. These human traffickers just want to get benefits. As long as we It should be possible to solve the problem with a little price."

"How to do it?"

"We'll talk when the chief of police comes."

Before long, the police chief who led the team came over, accompanied by several Mumbai parliamentarians. The chief of the police said directly: "We will not let this group of human traffickers go. They have already sold more than 800 children and women in our dharavi, hare, and other areas. Letting them go will have a huge impact on our people. We hope that we can find a proper solution, but first of all, we must establish under the condition that the criminal group cannot escape!"

"Congressman Love, we protest your actions. We must ensure the personal safety of our citizens. This is the primary requirement. The Indian government has a reason to protect foreign citizens who enter the country normally." The US ambassador protested the police chief.

The Chinese ambassador also said: "We hope that the police can find a satisfactory way to ensure the safety of our citizens."

The police chief shook his head: "We won't let this group of people run away again. We won't have such a good opportunity next time. They are stuck in Jitalehg, they can't escape."

The U.S. ambassador said with a serious face: "If you are determined to do this, I will inform the media of various countries to disclose this matter, and let the pressure of public opinion tell you what to do!"

A member hurriedly said: "Please don't worry, there must be a solution. Before the matter is completed, please do not leak the news to the media."

"We can remain silent, but you must ensure the personal safety of the crew."

Councillor wiped sweat: "It will be resolved properly."

At this time, the Chinese ambassador gave Shao Shuaijun a wink. Shao Shuaijun immediately understood and coughed and said: "Everyone, please listen to me. We must ensure the personal safety of the crew. For this, we are willing to pay any price."

"Who is this?"

The Chinese ambassador smiled and said: "Allow me to introduce this. This is the famous international director, Mr. Shao Shuaijun. His film is popular all over the world. He is also an investor in "Slumdog Millionaire". He is also China’s new richest man and owns a family. A huge multinational corporation. In the United States, people call him the representative of the American dream, and in China it is also the representative of the Chinese dream."

The American ambassador shrugged: "I think a few congressmen must want to meet Shao in private."

Shao Shuaijun came to India to plan films, all through the take-one company to operate, so these lawmakers do not know who he is. Now when I heard it was an international director, the richest man in China, several members of the Diet suddenly smiled. One of them immediately turned to the chief of police and said, “Chief Shavez, I think the police station should remain still before coming up with a suitable plan. We should not act rashly. We will ask the mayor to make a decision.”

"Don't miss the opportunity..."

"Well, Xavies, without the authorization of the mayor, you have no power to make a decision. We will hold a meeting again to study the decision." Congressman Love scolded Xavies, then turned to Shao Shuaijun and said, "Mr. Shao, you Our mayor must welcome such an outstanding person to come, and I will tell the mayor."

Watching the congressmen make a call, the Chinese ambassador attached to Shao Shuaijun’s ear and said: “Mumbai has been vigorously attracting investment recently. As long as it is used as an investment guise, it will give a little benefit. They will compromise and the safety of the crew will not be a problem. The water inside is deep, not as simple as imagined."

Shao Shuaijun nodded, saying nothing, he didn't understand politics. But he knows one thing very well. Money can make ghosts worse. He doesn't care how to solve it in India. He just needs to make sure that the crew doesn't have trouble. For this, spending a little money is nothing!
