1090: Chapter 1091: Being Too Beautiful is Also a Problem 1090: Chapter 1091: Being Too Beautiful is Also a Problem “My husband saved a lot of people when he was in the military, and those people really know how to show their gratitude,”
Jiang Meng explained to Yang Liying.
“But honey, it’s true that they are grateful, but we shouldn’t always trouble them,”
“It’s okay, they’re more than happy to be bothered by me,”
Xiao Chen said with a smile.
“You and your ways!”
Jiang Meng shook her head and smiled bitterly.
She could never fully understand her husband, but one thing she was sure of was that Xiao Chen truly treated her well.
She knew Xiao Chen cared a lot about face and disliked asking others for help.
But for her sake, Xiao Chen would still seek their help.
“Let’s not talk about this anymore.
Chaoyang Film is now a mess, and I suggest Xinmeng Entertainment directly acquires it.
Not all their artists are of low quality.
Some are tied up with almost servitude-like contracts, and despite being famous, they don’t earn much and dare not complain.
After all, they can’t afford to offend the Duanmu family.
Now the opportunity has come.
Chaoyang Film has been seized, and the Duanmu family will definitely be eager to dissociate themselves and will sell their shares on the black market.
I’ve had people watching it, and if you agree to buy, I’ll make the purchase.
Our business should not just stay in Zhili Prefecture; it is ultimately about stepping into the Capital Prefecture.
If other areas are tough to enter, then let’s start with the entertainment industry.
“Of course, how much will it cost?”
Jiang Meng asked.
“Since the Duanmu family is eager to sell, the price is very low, only ten billion.”
Xiao Chen said.
“Then definitely, we can earn that back with just one movie,”
Yang Liying said.
“I thought the same.
If we are going to do it, let’s do it big.
Our Xinmeng Entertainment’s films should be like Hollywood in the future.
Not only blockbusters but also classic, meaningful films.
I want to make the most authoritative award in the world shift from the Oscars to the Dragon Country Film Festival someday,”
Jiang Meng decided if she was going to do something, she would definitely give it her all.
“Alright, then I’ll call my friend right now to help me make the payment, and honey, you just transfer the money to me.”
Xiao Chen said.
“Okay!”
Jiang Meng nodded.
Xiao Chen began making moves, and the Duanmu family had no idea that it was Xinmeng Entertainment that was buying Chaoyang Film, so they sold it at a low price.
When Xinmeng Entertainment took over Chaoyang Film and renamed it Xinmeng Chaoyang Film and Television, Duanmu Lin almost spit blood.
The most valuable thing about Chaoyang Film was actually its brand.
Even though Huo Nantian was a scumbag and there were many jerks and internet celebrities in the company,
It was undeniable that Chaoyang Film had been very successful in commercial movie production over the years, possessing the most professional promotional and production teams.
Their movie special effects were absolutely first-rate domestically.
Xinmeng Entertainment took all this over and conducted a month-long training for the staff of Xinmeng Chaoyang Film and Television.
The training was solely on the corporate culture of Xinmeng Group.
The goal was to help them assimilate and transform into true members of Xinmeng Group.
Of course, Xiao Chen wasn’t concerned about these details.
After sorting this out, he returned to his comfortable leisure life.
Every day he would spend time with his wife playing games, shopping, buying things, and tasting delicious food, which was incredibly comfortable.
One day, while Xiao Chen, Jiang Meng, and Yang Liying were enjoying coffee in a café and dreaming about the future of Xinmeng Entertainment,
They chatted casually.
Yang Liying’s phone suddenly rang.
She glanced at it and directly blocked the number.
“So annoying.”
Yang Liying shook her head and gave a bitter laugh.
“What happened?”
Jiang Meng asked.
“Don’t even mention it, I don’t know where these people got my phone number, they keep calling asking me to find them some young, pretty internet celebrities and actors to accompany them for drinks.
They say foreign tycoons are interested and are offering big money.
Some even approached me directly, asking how much for one night.
It really infuriated me.”
Yang Liying grew angrier as she spoke.
She had already faded out of the acting circle and was now focusing on management work, yet there were still people targeting her.
“That just shows how irresistible our Sister Liying is,”
Xiao Chen said with a smile.
“You’re laughing!”
Jiang Meng slapped Xiao Chen’s hand away in annoyance.
“This is no small matter.
It could be very troublesome.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll handle this situation.
If anyone else comes looking for you, I’ll have someone take care of them.”
Xiao Chen suddenly became serious.
Both Jiang Meng and Yang Liying were stunners, targets of other people’s desires.
It was inevitable.
But if anyone dared harm them, Xiao Chen would be the first to disagree.
Meanwhile, at a club in Jincheng, Duanmu Yun was entertaining a group of wealthy young heirs and heiresses from abroad.
These people all had business dealings with the Duanmu Family and were wealthy and powerful.
Some were foreign crown princes, some were top billionaires, and some belonged to families of senior officials.
In any event, none were simple characters.
The club was owned by the Duanmu Family, belonged to the Hao League when necessary, and remained theirs when it wasn’t.
This group had entered Dragon Country through Jincheng City Port, where billboards featuring Yang Liying and Zhao Baoqiang lined the nearby area.
Even some commercial buildings had large screens displaying Jiang Meng’s images.
All caught their eyes.
“This woman is really interesting.
I offered a billion to spend one night with her, and she didn’t even accept.
Haha, I really don’t understand, is she made of gold, so arrogant?”
Young Master Hart of Langpu Group said with a laugh.
Although Langpu Group had lost to Xiao Corporation on the international stage, it was still very powerful.
To further penetrate the Dragon Country market, they had sent Hart, known for his ability to expand industries.
Hart was undoubtedly a playboy, but his business acumen was also formidable,
especially at using women to get things done, even persuading women to betray their husbands and children for his sake.
He had used such skills abroad to ruin many businesses.
“I heard she’s not married yet.
Perhaps she’s a singleton?”
“Who knows, but she really is beautiful.
Even by my American standards, I find her irresistibly attractive.
And I like wild horses.
The more she refuses, the more I want her.
If a billion isn’t enough, then I’ll have to use my real skills.”
Hart said with a chuckle, a sharp glint in his eyes.
He enjoyed toying with women more than he did handling business affairs.
“Young Master Hart, this woman isn’t someone you should mess with; she’s from Xinmeng Group, and Xinmeng Group is quite protective.
Messing with them could have unimaginable consequences.”
Duanmu Yun advised.
After several setbacks, Duanmu Yun had learned his lesson.
Certain things, he felt, needed to be pointed out to Hart.
“Heh, Xinmeng Group, I’ve heard of them.
Isn’t it a company that rose less than a year ago?
It rose quickly, but it’ll fall quickly too.
If they dare to oppose Langpu Group, I guarantee they’ll go bankrupt within minutes.”
Hart’s Mandarin was excellent, a genius from childhood, proficient in thirty-six languages of the world, even understanding several dialects of Dragon Country.
This was why Langpu Group had sent him.
