Chapter 120 Save it for the summer vacation "Push back again?" The next day at noon, Xu Kun, who was taking a nap in the hotel, suddenly received a notice from Tang Ren saying that due to personal reasons, Cai Yinong might not be able to spare time in the afternoon and the meeting needed to be postponed. Xu Kun felt a little unhappy at the time, wondering if this woman was trying to intimidate him on purpose. Then he heard another voice saying, "Our President Cai wants to postpone the time to 5:20 in the evening." "Five twenty?" Xu Kun immediately reacted: "Could it be because of the Golden Horse Awards?" "Yes, our President Cai heard that your friend was shortlisted for the Golden Horse Awards, so he specially arranged this time and wanted to watch the Golden Horse Awards ceremony with you." The mainland actually did not broadcast this year's Golden Horse Awards, but as long as you spend the right money, it is not difficult to watch Ghost Island's program in Shanghai. This arrangement was quite interesting. Besides, Xu Kun really wanted to confirm as soon as possible whether Baoqiang had won the award, so he readily agreed. However, Cai Yinong's actions clearly showed his intention to get closer and show goodwill.
Why is he so arrogant at first and respectful later? Xu Kun was curious, so he opened his notebook and searched the news on the Internet and forums. He found that today's entertainment headline was that Zhang Mo was expelled from the Central Academy of Drama. This probably has nothing to do with Cai Yinong's change of attitude. Then he looked through the local newspapers, but still found nothing. Never mind. We’ll know what she’s up to by evening anyway. Xu Kun wanted to tell Baoqiang about this, but was reminded that Baoqiang's phone was out of service area - apparently this guy was reluctant to activate the international roaming service. Fortunately, Li Yang’s cell phone could be reached. When Li Yang handed the phone to Bao Qiang, he heard Bao Qiang excitedly shouting on the other end of the phone: "Brother Kun, I just saw Liu Dehua!" "What's so strange about seeing Liu Dehua?" Xu Kun laughed and scolded, "You country bumpkin, the movie he starred in, Infernal Affairs, is a big hit this year!" "No, I didn't expect that he, a Hong Kong star, would be so nice and even offered to help me go to the toilet... Ugh, he even offered to help me turn on the faucet in the toilet!" What the hell? After asking in detail, I found out that it was the first time that Baoqiang saw the specially shaped faucet. He couldn't find the switch for a while and was scratching his head anxiously. Finally, Liu Dehua, who was waiting behind him in the queue, took the initiative to help him turn on the faucet. The reason why Baoqiang was so excited was not only because of Andy Lau's fame, but also because of his amiable attitude - having been an extra and stunt double for four years, he had seen too many different faces of Hong Kong filmmakers. "Let's not talk about Liu Dehua for now." Seeing that he was still talking, Xu Kun interrupted him and said, "I contacted you to tell you that I will find a place to watch the live broadcast of the award ceremony tonight." "real?!" Bao Qiang jumped three feet high with excitement and shouted in a shrill voice: "That's great, that's great! I was thinking of asking Director Li to record it! No, it has to be recorded after winning the award, otherwise there is nothing to record!" Baoqiang was so happy that he was a little incoherent. The phone went back to Li Yang. Li Yang said that Baoqiang had a good chance of winning the award this time. The reason was that there was no film more dark, profound and cruel than "Blind Well" in the same period, let alone a film from the mainland. After Blind Well won the award, there were many similar criticisms. Li Yang is now a bit like a broken jar and no longer shy away from this fact.
hang up the phone. While there was still time, Xu Kun went for a stroll around the Bund in the afternoon. At about 4:30, he met up with Liu Haibo and came to the Hongyi Club on Huaihai Middle Road. Liu Haibo obviously made a point of learning about the background of this place. After getting off the car, he excitedly introduced it: "I heard that this place was opened by the Macau gambling king." "how." Xu Kun raised his eyebrows slightly: "Brother Liu, do you want to play a few rounds?" Liu Haibo quickly shook his head: "Forget it, I'm afraid even if I become your pants I won't be enough to lose." The two reported the agreed room number to the front desk. The receptionist confirmed it with the intercom and then arranged for a waiter to take the two inside. The private room that Cai Yinong booked was in retro style, with a bright red carpet and European-style furniture. As soon as you walked in, it felt like you had returned to old Shanghai in the last century. Hanging on the west wall was a plasma TV that looked very high-tech. Cai Yinong and her personal assistant had already been waiting in the private room. Besides the two of them, there was also a young man who looked a little embarrassed. After seeing Xu Kun and Liu Haibo enter the room, he couldn't help but glance at the plasma TV. Cai Yinong stood up and said with a smile: "This was temporarily installed by the club at my request, so it doesn't match the overall atmosphere." As he spoke, he extended his hand to Xu Kun: "Tangren, Cai Yinong." "Xu Kun." When Xu Kun shook hands with Cai Yinong, the woman stared at him without blinking, as if she was a hawk staring at its prey. But this is certainly not the kind of 'hunting' between men and women. Xu Kun was a little confused about what this woman meant, but he didn't care too much. After all, if they could reach an agreement, they would talk, and if not, they would just go their separate ways. Cai Yinong shook hands with Liu Haibo again, then pointed at the young man and said, "This is Hu Ge, Li Xiaoyao, who was personally selected by Mr. Yao [the producer of The Legend of Sword and Fairy]." After hearing this, Xu Kun looked at Hu Ge carefully, then nodded and said, "He is indeed very handsome, but he lacks some masculinity." Hu Ge smiled awkwardly, secretly complaining in his heart: Who can be tough in front of the boss? Cai Yinong did not care about his nitpicking. She asked the two of them to sit down and asked Xu Kun if he wanted some tea and snacks. They ate and chatted. "The guest should follow the host's wishes." Xu Kun got straight to the point and said, "Actually, the main reason we came this time is to reach a gentleman's agreement with President Cai - we can hype each other up for the Double Swords crew, because without hype there will be no popularity these days, but there must be a bottom line, and we must not end up with both sides suffering losses." Cai Yinong smiled slightly after hearing this. He first signaled the assistant to ask the waiter to bring snacks and tea, and then said slowly: "I'm afraid that a gentleman's agreement is not safe enough, why not take it a step further?" Xu Kun raised his eyebrows and asked, "How do we take it a step further?" "For example..." Cai Yinong pointed at Hu Ge next to him and said, "Mr. Xu, like Hu Ge, should sign with our Tangren first. This way, we are all on the same side, with unified coordination and command, so there will naturally be no situation where both sides suffer losses." Haha~ Xu Kun wanted to roll his eyes after hearing this. This woman had such a big appetite. Not only did she pull him into Tangren, she even wanted to direct the crew of "Heavenly Sword" to do things. I really don’t know who gave her such a big face! "Mr. Xu, please don't rush to refuse." Seeing Xu Kun's disdainful expression, Cai Yinong smiled and took a file bag from the assistant, and gently pushed it in front of Xu Kun: "Why don't you take a look at the contents inside first." WTF?
Xu Kun opened the file bag suspiciously and found only two thin pages of paper inside. He took them out and read through them quickly. His eyes unconsciously expanded to the corners of his eyes. It turned out that what was recorded above were all the wrong things he had done when he was young and frivolous, but some of them were true and some were false, and the majority of them were hearsay. "how?" Seeing that Xu Kun had roughly read it, Cai Yinong said with a smile: "If Mr. Xu can join us Tangren, these troubles can be handed over to the company to handle, and I guarantee that you will never be disturbed." Xu Kun looked up at her, and suddenly his eyebrows raised, his eyelids turned up, and his ferocious four white eyes revealed murderous intent. Cai Yinong's smile froze on her face, and she leaned towards Hu Ge involuntarily - the reason why she suddenly decided to ask Hu Ge to sit with her was because she was worried that Xu Kun would get angry and attack her directly. "Haha~" Unexpectedly, Xu Kun smiled slightly, restrained his fierce look, put the two pieces of paper on the coffee table, pushed them in front of Cai Yinong and said, "It's better to leave it until the summer vacation, so that we can also maintain the enthusiasm of our two crews."
