At the dinner table, Lu Li continued to ask about this matter, while Xia Feng picked up some dishes and served soup to Meng Linping.
Meng Jiangzhou just ate and didn't say anything about this matter. Tan Wenzhen next to him kept winking at Lu Li, asking her not to ask any more questions.
Lu Li saw that she really couldn't ask anything, so she rolled her eyes, raised her eyebrows and smiled.
"Dad, big brother, I have something happy to tell you. My company has been established for less than a year, and now we have three million-dollar influencers. Thanks to them, the company's profit this year can exceed 10 million. Not only can we earn back the initial investment, but we will also have a surplus."
While talking to Meng Jiangzhou, she was also looking at Xia Feng's face, but to her disappointment, she couldn't see any expression on his face.
Meng Jiangzhou smiled halfheartedly as he drank his soup, "Lily is really amazing. She's a big boss now."
Lu Li looked at Xia Feng proudly, then took out her cell phone and showed it to Meng Jiangzhou.
"Brother, look, this is my company's internet celebrity. She's very famous now."
Meng Jiangzhou just took the time to take a look and nodded in praise, "This person is indeed very beautiful in ancient costume."
Lu Li was even more pleased with herself.
Then she took out her cell phone and showed it to everyone. Tan Wenzhen was naturally happy about her daughter's success and praised her enthusiastically.
Meng Linping simply said indifferently, "Well done."
Seeing that Xia Feng was motionless, Lu Li then exaggeratedly said,
"Sixia, you're a big boss now, so please help me find out. I just don't know if your company has any popular artists like this, and whether your company can make a profit."
Then he forcefully put the phone in front of Xia Feng, with contempt and arrogance flashing in his eyes.
As for Xialin Entertainment, Xia Feng basically never talked about it at home. Ever since Meng Linping handed the company over to Xia Feng, and he had been busy with work in the past six months, he rarely paid attention to it. So, other people in the family knew nothing about the company's affairs.
Xia Feng slowly wiped the corner of his mouth, then picked up the phone with a napkin, took a quick look at it, and threw it on the table.
Lu Li was put off by Xia Feng's arrogant attitude, and then asked angrily, "It seems Si Xia is used to being a boss. She really has some brilliant ideas, but I don't know what she wants to say."
Meng Linping frowned, and Meng Jiangzhou next to him also felt that Lu Li was deliberately targeting him today.
Xia Feng said calmly, "I can only say that imitations are imitations. No matter how realistic they are, they are still fakes. They are worthless compared to the real thing."
The video that Lu Li asked her to watch was a clip from "The Growth of a Concubine Jiao" imitated by an internet celebrity in their company. Taking advantage of the popularity, it received millions of likes.
Whether this is referring to internet celebrities or other people is a matter of opinion.
Lu Li glared and was about to get angry, but Tan Wenzhen next to her quickly pulled her back and asked, "What kind of place is this? How can you be so loud and noisy without caring about the people around you?"
Xia Feng raised his eyebrows and looked at her, a slight smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"What? I'm not right.
The clip you're imitating is from a web drama our company invested in and created. Is there something wrong with what you said?"
Lu Li's eyebrows widened instantly, and Tan Wenzhen beside her couldn't hold her back. The stimulation was really too great.
"Impossible, this is impossible, you're lying, how could your small company produce such a hit drama?"
Now even Meng Linping became curious and couldn't help but look at Xia Feng.
Xia Feng took out his cell phone calmly.
"Look carefully, this drama is exclusively invested in and produced by Xialin Entertainment, and the director and actors are also employees of Xialin Entertainment."
Meng Linping took it and took a look, and it was indeed true. Meng Jiangzhou next to him stretched his neck to take a look, and looked at Xia Feng in disbelief. He knew a little about the entertainment industry, so he was very surprised by Xia Feng.
Tan Wenzhen looked at Lu Li who was a little dazed after reading it, then she asked with a smile.
"So, Sixia, how much money can you make from this drama?"
Xia Feng glanced at Lu Li, and Lu Li next to him couldn't help but lower her head in fear.
"It's not that much."
Tan Wenzhen breathed a sigh of relief.
“Three or four small goals.”
Tan Wenzhen's expression froze immediately. How could she make so much money? Lu Li was almost petrified.
Meng Linping looked at Xia Feng in surprise, "Xia Xia, can you really make so much money from this drama?"
Xia Feng nodded without hesitation, "This drama will continue to bring profits to the company in the future, and it is expected that there may be even more."
This is still the revenue brought by the TV series, not including the various influences brought by the artist’s popularity, the company’s influence, etc.
Meng Linping was now completely unhappy and wanted to drink some wine to celebrate, but Xia Feng stopped him.
"Xia Xia is really good at business now. She's even better than Dad. Dad will need to learn from you in the future."
"Dad, let's help each other!" Xia Feng winked mischievously, making Meng Linping laugh out loud.
Meng Jiangzhou knew that this drama would definitely make money, but he didn't expect it to make so much. However, it was normal. In the entertainment industry, if a project becomes popular, the return on investment will be frighteningly high.
But if he lost, the amount would be frighteningly low. Then he couldn't help but think of himself, and a touch of sadness filled his heart.
Even though Meng's father didn't say it, Xia Feng still found out what had troubled him that day. The reason was that when he was bidding for a plot of land that day, someone bid maliciously. Because this plot of land was important to Meng's Real Estate Company, he had to spend a lot of effort to get it.
In the end, it was won with a price exceeding the expected 80 million, which was just at Meng Linping's bottom line.
Finally, Meng Linping checked and found that the new company was actually Luohuang Entertainment.
Then Luo Qianze called to apologize, saying that he had just entered the real estate industry and his subordinates did not know it was Meng's Real Estate, otherwise it would not have turned out like this. Meng Linping could only swallow his anger in the end.
Xia Feng touched his chin. This situation was not very good.
But unexpectedly, the anger soon spread to Xia Feng. After Ding Fei reported the matter to Xia Feng, Xia Feng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"There's no rush for this. First, check if anyone else in the company has this situation."
After Ding Fei went out, he had a brief talk with Huang Fengyun.
"There's no rush for Tao Ning to terminate the contract. If she doesn't want to work, she can stop. As for the commotion at home, you don't have to pay attention to it."
That’s right, Tao Ning wanted to terminate the contract. Huang Fengyun couldn’t have imagined that Tao Ning would terminate the contract with the company at this critical juncture just when she was about to take off. She never expected that.
She had signed a contract with the company for less than a year, and she got the female lead role right after signing the contract, and became an instant hit. The company treated her very well, but she became famous in August and wanted to terminate the contract in September. If this matter were to get out, did she think she would be able to get away with it?
Huang Fengyun wanted to dig out her brain to see what was inside.
No matter what, as an agent, she is also responsible for this matter, and she was caught off guard by Tao Ning, so she could only report it quickly and admit her mistake.
After returning, she impatiently sent Tao Ning and her family away and marked all her upcoming schedules.
But there is still the matter of Fu Xiuwen and Dong Xuyang, which she cannot stop thinking about. Because of Tao Ning, she has no time to take care of them during this period. Now she has to take a closer look.
