Latest station name: Mubi Pavilion latest website:

After the New Year’s Eve, it was another two days of non-stop social entertainment. On the first day of the new year, there was a New Year greeting everywhere, and the second day was a guest banquet, until the third day, and finally had to relax. It was also the last day of Simon’s China trip.

In the morning, I visited some scenic spots around the West Lake with Lin Su. I also watched the construction progress of the 5-hectare estate on the shore of the West Lake last year. After lunch, the two did not walk around anymore, but set foot on a cruise ship. , Boating on the West Lake.

"Our family has been a distinguished family since the Qing Dynasty. Grandpa said that there was a bookstore in the house, which stored tens of thousands of ancient books, but it was a pity that they were scattered for various reasons. This set of "Qing Barnyard Notes" is one of the few preserved Now, but it’s not complete anymore. Well, there are two lines of poems in this volume that Grandpa likes very much. You have just turned it over, guess?"

"When Zhang Er looks at Nanxue, Mei Hua and I have white heads."

"How can you guess so accurate?"

"I'm also a literati, and all literati hurt the spring and sadness of the autumn."

"You are a big capitalist." On the second floor of the vermilion vintage wooden cruise ship, Lin Su and Simon squeezed on the sofa by the window, teasing, and then showing a reminiscence expression: "I lived in for a long time after I was young. In the countryside, my parents stayed in the city to work and couldn’t control us. It was my grandfather holding a cane every night to escort a few of our brothers and sisters to study. If they were not obedient, they would beat their palms. It’s useless. Thinking about it now, all of us were able to enter a good university. Grandpa made it out. Xiaolan even tore through grandpa’s book that year. Grandpa was very sad that time, and we shed tears. Xiaolan was beaten by his father who rushed back overnight? Then she became obedient."

Simon listened quietly, and finally joked: "Are you sure you were not the one who was beaten, it was on your sister?"

"Of course not? I've been the most obedient since I was a kid? Big sister?" Lin Su retorted, taking a look at the man's expression, and then said: "And? Xiaolan still has this temperament? You should feel it, but Xiaolan just? Huh? Spicy? Actually, the temper is not bad."

"Understand? The counterpart here should be Xiao Qing."

"Yeah? She admits it in private? She is Daji, never doing good. Last time she carved herself a jade pendant of a nine-tailed fox."

"Well, by the way, where's your jade?"

"I didn't."

"Don't believe it? It must be hidden? I'm looking for it."

"Huh? Don't? Will be seen? Look, there are people on the shore watching us, eh..."

Intimacy for a while? Lin Su's face was ruddy, and a boneless cat snuggled up next to the man. After a while, he whispered: "Well, these days, my father...I hope you don't mind."

Know what a woman is referring to.

In the past few days, especially the first two days, Simon's side was very lively, and a bunch of inexplicable people came up to get close, basically it was Lin's intention or unintentionally arranged.

Smiling and shook his head, Simon turned his cheek and put a sticker on the woman's forehead: "It doesn't matter, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't understand the world."

Lin Su felt a little relieved, and said again: "Actually, we, my dad’s generation, he ranks third, but because the position is the highest, he has to take care of a large family, so Xiaolan complained more than once in private. ..." At this point, Lin Su paused, not able to reveal the various poisonous tongues of his little sister, and skipped directly: "Anyway, my father's job is not a big deal in this city. Easy."

"Ok."

"So, after you show up, my dad is the happiest, at least, no matter who you see in the future, he can straighten his waist, and don't need to lower his eyebrows to confuse people."

Simon remembered a poem, and said softly: "It's not as good as you want, and you can talk to others. He knows himself Jingmen Zicaifu, Mengchi iron horse fights south of the city."

When Lin Su heard the first two sentences, he was already immersed in certain emotions and rubbed the man's shoulder in resonance. However, after pondering the latter two sentences, he raised his hand and gently hit Simon's arm.

Simon turned a page of the "Clean Barnyard Notes" in his hand and saw Lin Su hitting himself. After thinking about it, he reacted and said with a smile: "This is the whole poem, and I didn't write it. And this is a poem with aspirations, and It's not ironic. Anyway, your father will retire next year, and there will definitely be no chance to'ride the horse to fight south of the city'."

Lin Su pouted slightly like a girl: "Then you don't care about the rest of our family, my sister?"

Simon said with a firm face: "Take care of it, of course, it's all about it."

Lin Su was satisfied, and then asked, "Whose poem just now?"

"Li Bai's."

Lin Su blinked his eyes: "It's a lie, Li Bai's poems are not in this style, and, according to the meaning, it should be from the late Tang Dynasty, which is more like Du Fu's style.

"Oh, that's Du Fu's."

"..."

Simon took Lin Su's soft body and leaned forward to kiss him, jokingly said: "I teach you that in the future, any verse that you can't think of from is definitely correct for Li Bai Dufu. Everyone will think you are very powerful."

Lin Su let the man kiss his lips, and then groaned, "Bullshit."

The cabin is very warm, and the atmosphere is warm and comfortable, so casually chatting in small pieces, unknowingly it is the setting sun, the golden sun in the evening is sprinkled on the lake like scales in the breeze, although it is still winter, the scenery is still the same Enchanting.

In order to enjoy this comfort again in the future, Simon also decided to build a better cruise ship.

But it must be placed on the Taihu Lake on the Suzhou side next door.

West Lake is too small.

The next day was February 10th. I stayed here for exactly a week in China. Although I was a little lingering in my heart, it was impossible to stay for too long. I had to leave in the morning.

After a week of leisure, in the last few hours before leaving, Simon dealt with some serious affairs at first glance.

Yesterday, the Westeros system, who had already flown from all over the country to Hangzhou, rushed here early, so that everyone and the big boss only had about ten to twenty minutes to meet, but, although The New Year was interrupted, but no one complained about being able to meet Simon.

"Jerry, with regard to the two investment projects of Evergrande and Country Garden, you have done a good job. Also, He, the construction of the Levison International Center and the preparation of the Xiangshan Golf project, the progress is satisfactory. Finally, Jill, successfully won Under the Rose Garden project, you did a great job, but remember, this is just the beginning and you still have a lot to learn."

In a study in the mansion on the west side of the West Lake.

On the sofa in the reception area, Simon sat next to Jared Barkley, president of Apollo Management's China business, He Zaiyuan, president of Levison Group China, and Jill Peckert, who was sent here by Simon last year. People, with a little encouragement, Simon continued: "However, I call you to come in together, mainly to talk about cooperation. China's real estate contraction has been going on for four years. In the past two years, if nothing happens, the policy will change. At that time, I will further increase my bet on this field. The problem now is that I find that the communication and collaboration between you are not smooth. I don’t know why, I don’t go into it, you also understand. But what I want It’s that you must hug each other and help each other. After all, China’s real estate industry has just started, and the plate is big enough. If you want to make a difference, you must also have a pattern that matches it..."

Lin Su personally brought a pot of tea in, only nodded slightly with a few people, did not listen too much to the man's admonitions to his subordinates, and retired lightly.

As soon as I left the house, I saw a restrained-looking girl approaching and sending a copy of the printed information to her.

Lin Su took the information, stood directly under the corridor and opened it, while asking casually, "How are you doing?"

The girl in front of him is Feng Chuo, the former Feng Caifan.After the last diving farce in Manhattan, Simon asked Lin Su to help arrange. She gave the girl two choices, but both of them returned to China. One was the city government’s business establishment, and the other was the two powerful women in China. Assistant Ran Yue works under the name.

Feng Chuo chose the latter.

Although her career establishment is stable, it is a pity that she needs to give up her American citizenship, which Feng Chuo is unwilling to do.

So it was arranged on Ran Yue's side.

Moreover, Lin Su was much more kind than Chen Qing and didn't reveal anything to Ran Yue, so Ran Yue misunderstood that this was an object that needed special care, and as a result, he was promoted to bring him here today.

Lin Su didn't plan to say anything more about this.

After all, she was just a little girl. If she said too much, the situation of the other party would be reversed, and something might happen again.

Seeing Lin Su's question, Feng Chuo quickly said, "Not bad, Sister Lin...Thank you."

Lin Suyuguang caught a glimpse of the girl's gaze subconsciously looking at the door of the office next to him, and the low tone of voice. It was roughly clear, and certainly not so happy. After all, the man really raised the girls from the Guofeng Art Troupe like a princess. Cinderella, it is impossible to have no gap, not to mention that during this period of time the Guofeng Art Troupe has become famous all over the world, and it is even more highly praised in China. If the girl in front of you is not disappointed and regretful, it is a strange thing. .

Thinking about this, Lin Su said, "Let's do things well in the future, and live your own life well. You are free now, and no one will interfere with you."

Feng Chuo paused, then subconsciously glanced at the door somewhere, then woke up again and quickly said, "Sister Lin, I see."

Lin Su didn't say much about this, remembering one thing, and then said: "Go and ask for a copy of the box office data of "If you have something to say", and give it to me within ten minutes."

"OK, all right."

After Feng Chuo finished speaking, he turned reluctantly, turned around the corridor, and came to another office in the outer courtyard. Her boss Ran Yue and a few others are here. Ran Yue is on the phone, and the others are on the computer. I’m very busy before typing, or sorting out some documents.

Seeing her coming in, Ran Yue temporarily covered the microphone and asked with her eyes.

Feng Chuo, who was a bit lost, said quickly: "Sister Lin wants a copy of the box office data for "If You Have Something to Say," within ten minutes.

Ran Yue nodded and looked at her expression: "Are you uncomfortable?"

"No, no, Sister Ran, I..."

Ran Yue waved her hand to interrupt her, as she was about to speak, another girl sitting next to her computer interrupted and said, "Sister Ran, the box office of "If You Have Something to Say" is right? I happen to have a copy here, which has been sorted in advance."

Ran Yue nodded in satisfaction, and said: "Print it out and send it in."

The girl agreed with a smile, gave Feng Chuo a slanted look, and then started to get busy. The appearance of operating the computer was obviously rusty, but she also gave a stern glance, and soon the printer next to it buzzed.

Feng Chuo was about to walk over to get the information. The girl had gotten up first and grabbed it without a trace. She didn't forget to ask Ran Yue again. After getting permission, she left herself and walked towards the nearby yard.

Feng Chuo watched the girl named Shen Lige's voice disappear, and shook his fist slightly.

I can only return to my temporary office.

Zhang Guoshi's "Speaking Well" was officially released on the 20th of the twelfth lunar month last year. It was the first to play the slogan of a New Year film in the Mainland. At the same time, it held grand premieres in the two Jinshu cinemas officially opened in Beijing and Shanghai Li, the team also rushed to several cities for national propaganda years ago, and the momentum was quite strong.

The film’s reputation can be described as polarizing.

Some people think this is a breakthrough by Zhang Guoshi, and some people think it is a parody of some other films.

In any case, the film is a commercial success.

First of all, this is the first domestically-made film with great influence after the launch of computer network ticket sales in China last year and the reform of the theater system. Although limited to the complex environment of the industry’s software, hardware and even policies, the scope of computer network ticket sales is still Only limited to first-tier provinces and cities, the theaters are even more procrastinated, but after the ticket sales network, the control of the widespread box office stealing behavior in China is almost immediate.

For "I Have Something to Say", the domestic box office of the film has reached 23 million yuan in the first two weeks of its release. In this era, domestic film screenings are still dominated by layers of progressive long-term, which is expected to be fully rolled out. , The gross domestic box office of the film is expected to reach around 60 million.

The investment of the film is RMB 25 million, which is much higher than Simon's initial estimate. However, the local 60 million is enough to recover production costs. After all, Zhang Guoshi has considerable influence overseas. A little bit of sales in the international market will enter the profit cycle.

It was a good start for Jinshu Media.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that, as the heroine, Zhu Momo, with her outstanding performance in this film, also became famous in one fell swoop. If we don’t talk about compulsiveness, this person always stepped on hate in the film as soon as she appeared Everyone is a tall girl, and the domestic popularity even surpasses Jian Xin and Tao Yuelei.

Of course, as far as Simon is concerned, it's just a small test.

It was the turn of Wu Shanlin and Luo Qun from the Jinshu department. They talked about "If you have something to say," and after some encouragement, Simon talked about other things, mainly the series of TV series that Simon personally planned last time.

For China's film and television industry, Simon's main layout is to promote commercial operations in related fields.

The same goes for TV series.

There is one exception, namely Jin Yong's "Dragon Babu".
