It starts from 2002, beginning at the Beijing Film Academy, and starting with the H...
Shen Fang offered cigarettes to the two of them.
At that moment, Shen Fang's phone rang; it was Xu Xin calling.
"President Shen, President Ding has done as you said, and the results should be available in the next couple of days."
Shen Fang was delighted to hear this: "How was Fatty Ding's performance?"
"It's alright. You'll probably see the report tonight. He said that even his own father couldn't tell the difference in his acting."
"Really? Fatty Ding is a real actor? Sister Xin is just waiting to see when Little Superman will show his face."
"It's estimated that it won't be long before NetEase's stock price plummets again after this news comes out."
"Alright, Sister Xin, please talk to Boss Zhuang for me again. I'll ask for a flat price of 8 million US dollars. I'll also tell Fatty Ding to hold on tight and make sure he acts convincingly."
"Don't worry, by the way, we've already acquired the MIH shares. Now all that's left is IGO. Mr. Zeng, we'll try to get it soon."
Shen Fang frowned: "What's going on?"
"igo wants to raise the price to $15 million."
Shen Fang's face turned cold: "Why did they suddenly raise the price?"
"I don't know, but Brother Ma went there. There was already an agreement that 12 million was a lot. It's not a big problem. We can take our time and there's no rush."
Shen Fang nodded upon hearing this: "Sister Xin, we must acquire all the shares when Tencent goes public. We can't let outsiders bleed Tencent dry!!!"
"Understood. There's no rush. The non-compete agreement is fine. If they really refuse to sell, we can take legal action."
"Okay, Sister Xin. Please help with the communication. I look forward to your good news."
The call ended.
Shen Fang returned to his seat.
"Hey bro, Hui-ge, Fa-ge's here. Shall we go over and have a chat?"
Shen Fang was very excited upon hearing this.
"Let's go, let's go."
Cheng Long brought Chen Fang to Zhang Jiahui and Chow Yun-fat. At that moment, Zhang Jiahui, Chow Yun-fat, Andy Lau, Louis Koo, and Eric Tsang were chatting.
"Brother Fa, Brother Jia Hui, this is Shen Fang, President Shen."
Shen Fang looked at Zhang Jiahui with excitement. The versatile actor, his idol, was seeing him in person for the first time.
Nick Cheung's black and gold outfit is such a classic!!!
As for Chow Yun-fat's movies, Shen Fang also likes them quite a bit, but he prefers Nick Cheung.
"Brother Jia Hui, can I have a hug? You're my idol."
"Of course, he's very handsome."
Shen Fang gave Zhang Jiahui a warm hug.
Shen Fang shook hands with Fa Zai again.
She smiled and looked at Andy Lau: "Brother Wah, I'm also your fan. I've even been to your concert. Xiao Kun, Andy Lau is here! Come over here."
Upon hearing this, Shen Kun, who was in the middle of a binge, put down the cake in his hand and excitedly ran over.
"Andy Lau, Andy Lau, I'm your idol? Ugh, how can you be my idol?"
Andy Lau looked at the chubby Shen Kun and smiled, "So who is whose idol?"
Shen Kun's face flushed with excitement: "Of course you're my idol!"
Andy Lau very kindly shook hands and hugged the two of them.
Shen Kun looked at Jackie Chan and said, "Brother, do you have a camera? I want to take a picture with my idol."
Cheng Long smiled and said, "Of course, Aunt Liu, please go and get my camera."
A staff member nearby brought over a Sony camera shortly afterward.
"Third Uncle, could you take a picture for me?"
Shen Fang gave an OK sign.
Shen Kun smiled and put his arm around Andy Lau, making a peace sign.
Snap! Snap!
Shen Fang took two photos.
Cheng Long began introducing Shen Fang's identity to the big-name artists in the industry.
"Brother, you're a big-time businessman in the mainland, and you're also in the media industry. Director Zhang Yimou is currently signed with his company. Brother Fa, Brother Hui, the reason we invited you here is that President Shen has a big production he wants you to star in."
Upon hearing this, Fat Boy became interested: "A big production? How big of a production?"
Shen Fang smiled and said, "It's not that big, only 30 million US dollars."
Chow Yun-fat, Andy Lau, Tony Leung Ka-fai, Louis Koo, and Tsang Yi-tak all gasped in shock.
"Mr. Shen, is there any for me? You said you're my fan."
Upon hearing this, Shen Fang looked at Andy Lau apologetically and said, "It probably won't work this time, but it's okay. We at Longteng Media make these kinds of movies every year, and I'll definitely ask you, Brother Hua, for help then."
Andy Lau was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this, feeling that Shen Fang was just giving him the runaround.
Jackie Chan patted Andy Lau on the shoulder.
"Wah Jai, I'm not kidding you, I'm very wealthy. If I say I need you, I definitely will."
Shen Fang smiled: "That's for sure. I'm definitely going to collaborate with Brother Hua on something big."
Andy Lau smiled upon hearing this: "Then I'll be waiting."
Tony Leung looked at Shen Fang and asked, "Mr. Shen, what play?"
Shen Fang smiled and said, "There's no rush. After Director Zhang's 'Hero' is released, you two can come to Beijing. For now, I can only tell you that it's a period drama, a war film, and it tells the story of two kings fighting for supremacy."
Tony Leung nodded upon hearing this: "President Shen, please let us know in advance so we can make the necessary arrangements."
Shen Fang smiled: "Of course."
"Brother Fat, how did your chat with Brother Ka-fai and my brother go?"
Manshen walked over with a wine glass in his hand.
Tony Leung looked completely bewildered.
"Your brother?"
Man Shen hooked her arm around Chen Fang's neck: "That's right, he's my godson. You guys have to take good care of him and give him some face."
Andy Lau smiled and said, "President Shen is a big shot; it's more like he's taking care of us."
Man Shen smiled upon hearing this: "That's true. But I'm new to this industry, and you're all seniors, so please give me some face. Don't bully him."
