Arrived in the capital at around 6 o'clock, and Simon rushed to the Sihe Courtyard in Maoer Hutong for a brief rest, and then rushed to the imperial city to attend a private banquet that started at 7:30.

Simon still had no plans to show up on the public this time, so the banquet was very low-key, with only a few five or six people attending it.

Thanks to the full moon gift about the little guy, it is all kinds of casual and unintentional chats, about China's film and television industry, about the ongoing Asian financial crisis, about the Internet, and even Simon's plan to promote humanity's next stage of civilization.

The conversation was very pleasant.

So I planned a two-hour banquet to last until after ten o'clock.

Back in the car at Maoer Hutong, Simon felt Chen Qingmao staring at him like a cat attending the banquet, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?"

Chen Qing tilted her head: "I think you've said too much, boss."

Simon didn't explain anything, just leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes to rest.

Chen Qing didn't ask, thought for a while, and said, "Boss, since you said that one of the keys to the rise of the Internet industry is to build a complete online payment system, I think Igret should try to introduce Ypay to China now, right?"

Simon thought about it for a moment and nodded, "You take the time to talk to the Igrit Chinese team, and also make a plan on A in the United States."

Due to the desire for foreign capital, it was easier for overseas financial institutions to enter China in the 1990s. In the early days, joint venture banks with absolutely foreign capital were also seen.

On the other hand, China's Internet industry is still in its early stages of development, and the importance of online payment tools is not so prominent. In addition, the upper-level connections of the Westeros system, as long as Igret does not pursue absolute holdings, but only cooperates with China's state-owned banks, an online payment tool will only be less difficult to enter China compared to foreign banks.

Seeing that her boss agreed, Chen Qing took out a memo from her bag and wrote down the matter. Then she thought of something and said to Simon with a smile: "Boss, I think that the deadline execution document on cinema networking and theater reform that has been discussed for a while in recent days will definitely be released."

When Simon heard this, he smiled: "This is not a favor. Reform will only benefit China's film industry. Even if it delays for another ten or eight years, it doesn't matter to me."

From September 5th to now, the Chinese box office of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has reached 120 million yuan, equivalent to eight times the 15 million yuan in the original time and space, and is still being released. It is expected that China's total box office will be around 140 million yuan. Such outstanding results, in addition to the halo of North America and the excellent publicity and promotion of the team here, China's theater reform and theater networking that have been promoted since last year also contributed.

Since the benefits of these changes have been confirmed, many things are natural.

Compared to being destined to try to reverse grading and scrutiny in vain, Simon has been working very pragmatically since last year to push for these easier things to change. Now, it is also a ripe place.

Back to the Sihe Courtyard in Maoer Hutong, this time I entered directly from the easternmost courtyard and came to the underground swimming pool of the courtyard.

Take a bath before bed and relax.

Chen Qing took Jiang Shanwu and Jiang Yuanchi's sisters to serve Simon and then changed into the pool, went out to do some work, and after a while, he changed into a swimsuit and returned, drove away the two sisters in the hot spring pool, stuck to their own boss, and smiled and said, "I've been hungry for a day and can't come to accompany the boss."

Simon hugged Chen Qing in front of him, recalled the two sisters next to him again, and said, "It's been too long, right?"

Chen Qing rolled her eyes slightly: "It's not your boss, you are yourself. Last time... Humph, this time, fasting for 24 hours will definitely be clean."

Simon remembered the last time Princess Xu, and just gave Chen Qing a 50 cents with a smile.

Princess Xu is not in China now. She has never come back when she went to the United States last time and enjoys her life there.

Chen Qing was talking about the things that the three Huanzhu team, who were in the bedroom above, had already arranged in advance.

Speaking of which, Simon initially only wanted a little maid, and the other two were no longer interested after savoring it on Taihu Lake last time. However, they always needed lubricants. Simon advocated nature and never liked industrial products with unknown ingredients to stick to themselves, so he took on the other two.

Seeing that his boss had no objection, Chen Qing diligently helped his boss wash it, and said, "Boss, when will you meet those in the courtyard by the sea?"

Simon hugged the two next to him and said, "It's too big, but it's actually pretty."

Simon said he should be bigger, but in fact he was thinking about a larger apple level, at most to the level of melons. As a result, Chen Qing directly found a group of watermelons.

When Chen Qing heard Simon say this, she disagreed: "Boss, you'll know it when you look at it. It's very beautiful. I've specially selected it."

Picked?

Simon inexplicably thought of Brother Hua Qiang’s famous saying, are you familiar with it?

Well, the girl in front of this joke must not be able to GET, just nodded: "Then it will be tomorrow night."

"Um."

"besides……"

Simon was about to continue saying something, but Chen Qing had already slid down in front of him, so she didn't disturb the girl from concentrating on diving.

Probably because of the time difference, I woke up a little late the next day.

When he let go, he grabbed the Jiangshanwu and Jiang Yuanchi sisters beside him, Simon crossed the mountains and got out of bed, accidentally stepped on one, and looked down. He looked like a crape myrtle flower that had experienced wind and rain, and looked a little withered, as if he had kicked off last night.

I continued to bypass and came to the bathroom. I found that there was another one in the bathtub, which had big eyes, but it was more like a rice dumpling at this time, with something stuffed in my mouth, and I was sleeping soundly.

Simon was kind enough not to disturb him, so he simply left the bedroom and changed the room to attract other maids to dress and wash.

Chen Qing claimed to be a big fairy and no longer accompanied a group of little fairys to mess around. Simon came to the garden between the two major courtyards. Chen Qing had already prepared breakfast and waited here.

The two sat opposite each other and discussed today's schedule. Simon remembered what he wanted to say last night again and said to Chen Qing: "In Taiwan, a very popular stand-alone game was produced two years ago, called "Legend of Sword and Fairy". You took the time to buy the TV series adaptation rights."

Chen Qing obviously didn't pay much attention to these things, so she didn't ask her boss how to know, but asked: "Boss, what is it probably?"

"You can find time to understand this yourself," Simon said, pointing to the east yard: "The heroine, let's give it to the little maid, I think it's very suitable."

The TV series "Legend of Sword and Fairy" in 2005 can be regarded as a memory of a generation, and the two protagonists later became big names.

However, this time, Simon doesn't care whether the little fairy he raised will debut, but he tends to keep it. Since that's the case, a little maid in the Zhuang can try the role of Zhao Linger. As for the male protagonist, the original version is less than the age of the original version, he will definitely be able to replace people. Fortunately, there is no problem in selecting some handsome and handsome young actors in major art schools in China.

Chen Qing agreed and tentatively said: "Boss, listen to the name, this TV series should use a lot of special effects, right?"

"Yes, it just so happens that Daenerys can practice special effects, and it can also be used as a costume project in Jinshu Film and Television City. By the way, the peach blossoms in Taohuawu will be very beautiful next year. This TV series should involve related scenes, so that they can arrange their time according to the flowering period."

Chen Qing said that she would write down it, thinking that this was a project that her boss personally explained, and asked again: "Boss, then, this movie, well, "Legend of Sword and Fairy", should be made by Jinshu?"

Simon didn't notice this problem just now. When he thought about it, he still said, "Give it to Jingxi, she did a good job in "My Fair Princess".

Chen Qing immediately pouted with dissatisfaction and couldn't help saying again: "Boss, actually, I think she can do so well this time because the boss gave her all the resources she can use. If she doesn't do well, she is a fool."

After listening to Chen Qing's words with a smile, Simon just shook his head: "Do you know what I admire most about Jing Xi?"

"I don't want to listen."

“…”

"Okay, boss, you said?"

"What I admire most is that Jing Xi did not pursue the ultimate and ensure quality, but did not use up all the 6 million budget I gave for perfection. For the film and television industry, this is a very rare quality. Whether in the East and West, most film and television people often pursue another extreme, spend more money and better results."

"Is this wrong?"

"Of course there is no problem with attitude itself. The problem lies in people. Many people spend more money, and the things they take out are often unsatisfactory. Jing Xi's attitude is to save as much money as possible while ensuring quality."

Simon said, and couldn't help but think of two people, James Cameron, and Director Chen, who had just met yesterday.

Chen Qing tilted her head: "I think quality and budget should be contradictory."

"Yes, the truth makes sense from either direction, so in most cases, all we need is to grasp a degree."

Chen Qing nodded and couldn't help but say, "I still think that the boss gave her 6 million yuan, which was too much. What's more, she, tsk, these few months are like vampires, making me afraid to get along with her, worried about when she would bite her neck. Also, I think she is just afraid of failure to save a little."

"It seems that you have a lot of opinions about Jing Xi."

"Yeah."

"It's OK to have opinions, but you're absolutely not allowed to do anything bad."

“…”

"Hear?"

"I heard it, boss."

Chen Qing said, looking pitiful, but unfortunately she was ineffective against Simon.

After breakfast, it was almost nine o'clock.

It's still a full day of various schedules.

I visited the construction site of Levison International Center in the morning and had an hourly meeting with the senior executives of Levison Group in China, and then rushed to the China headquarters of Igret Company in Zhongguancun. Then, at noon, it was a dinner at the Renjian Club, and I was entertaining senior executives of some companies such as Vanke, which had just decided to cooperate some time ago.

I arrived at Jinshu headquarters in the afternoon.

After listening to the work report, Simon discussed the company's next development strategy with Jinshu and other senior executives.

With the implementation of the plan to break the whole into pieces, Jinshu will shrink greatly in production. Therefore, Simon hopes that Jinshu will spend more energy on building an overseas distribution network in the next step.

Of course not a movie.

It's a TV series.

In addition, of course, it is not aimed at Europe and the United States, but also in neighboring countries such as Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, etc. that are deeply influenced by Chinese culture.

Not to mention the rest, just "Return of the Condor Heroes", Simon clearly remembers the lively viewing of this TV series in the entire Asian region, especially South Korea. Because of its high ratings, South Korea directly issued a ban on Chinese TV series. There is also "Kangxi's Private Visit" that has been broadcast during the summer vacation. In my memory, this is also a TV series that once won the ratings championship in Hong Kong.

In history, the output of Chinese TV dramas was largely more important than commercial significance. In many aspects, they basically didn’t care much about the money. They bought the ones they gave and only thought that as long as they could be played overseas, they would have a face.

The other Simon can't control it, but Jinshu must change this strategy.

With Simon's prophet advantage and even the resources that Jinshu can use, next year, a large number of TV series with quality no less than that of Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia. Since Japanese and Korean dramas have been imported into China in a large number of ways, as long as China can achieve the highest quality of the series, there is no reason not to be output.

As for political obstacles like the once-South Korea, this time, since Jinshu is backed by the entire Westeros system, Simon certainly would not allow this situation to happen easily.

Otherwise, at worst, equal sanctions are.

Whether it is Japanese or Korean dramas, the export orientation is very strong, especially South Korea. If this time, with the efforts of Westeros system, South Korea will still ban popular dramas from China such as "My Fair Princess", and Simon can also push China to ban Korean dramas.

In short, as long as Jinshu can create a complete overseas distribution network and publish dramas from related companies that have been broken into pieces in China to other regions, just like Jinshu brokerage, this distribution network will also become a powerful tool to control China's domestic film and television industry in the future.

The meeting with Jinshu's senior executives began at 1:00 p.m. and lasted until four o'clock.

Then comes the completed internal test film of "Love Call Transfer".

This plan, as the second comedy of Jinshu Media's New Year's film, has not been completely completed. It was just to adapt to Simon's schedule that a 150-minute sample was temporarily made.

After watching it, Simon gave the only suggestion to make a rap opening similar to the past.
Chapter completed!
