Chapter 214
After saying this, Xiao Qiang pondered for a moment, "She's not here, so it's impossible for her?"
Xu Cong had been a bit skeptical when he first met the boss, but he quickly explained, "Yes, because during her absence, the movie ads were adjusted. Later, Chen Keshan even went to Xiangjiang University for a promotional performance."
"They said the purpose was to mobilize students to watch the movie."
"This series of operations couldn't be done perfectly without someone here. I reviewed what Chen Keshan did, and there were almost no mistakes from start to finish. They even broke the ice right inside Hong Kong University."
"There were a lot of young students in the cinema this time."
"Boss, I can tell," Xu Conggang said calmly. "Their fourth wave of publicity is at school. This wave is no less effective than on TV, radio, or in newspapers. It even feels like a direct response, and the feedback has been positive."
"Young students have money and time; they are the main force in watching movies."
"That's how I figured it out. The person here definitely isn't Jiang Meilan. She's not in Hong Kong."
Xiao Qiang didn't refute this time. He simply stroked his chin and stared at the list. "According to what you said, Liang Qiurun can't be the mastermind behind this. After all, he's not in Hong Kong."
Xu Conggang, "Yes."
"I've also done some research. It's said that Liang Qiurun is the director of the Hongtai Bicycle Factory in Yangcheng. He's very busy, leaving early and returning late every day. He doesn't have the time or energy to plan this."
Xiao Qiang always felt that something was wrong.
You know, if someone is valued by the old fox Qiao Guangzheng, how can he be a waste?
But Xu Conggang added, "Originally, I wasn't sure about the candidate, but it just so happened that Li Wenjuan was in Hong Kong before and after the Lunar New Year, and she graduated from the University of Hong Kong. When Chen Keshan went to the University of Hong Kong to promote the event, Li Wenjuan was running around there, and she was the one who made most of the contacts."
"Plus, she's familiar with Qiao Jiahui. I heard Qiao Jiahui even asked her to call him sister. Qiao Jiahui also took the lion's share of the investment in this film, so—"
Xu Conggang came to a very accurate conclusion, "The mastermind behind the film's planning must be Li Wenjuan."
Xiao Qiang looked at his confident expression and hummed, "Then follow Li Wenjuan's lead and investigate."
Seeing that he had no doubts, Xu Conggang breathed a sigh of relief and immediately started to boast, "Don't worry, big brother. I will bring the expert Li Wenjuan to see you within three days."
When Xu Cong first found Li Wenjuan, she was still busy working in a decoration company.
Jiang Meishu and Jiang Meilan are both very busy people, but Li Wenjuan trained a deputy factory director, so she can free up her hands temporarily, and she took over the Meixin Decoration Company.
In just eight months, Meixin had already decorated over 40 houses, including most of the Xiangjing Building.
In order to gain more experience, they did not rush to take on the Qiao family's shopping mall decoration order.
Originally, Li Wenjuan planned to discuss the decoration layout of the Qiao family's house in the Midtown Shopping Mall with Qiao's second sister today.
But when the appointed time came, Li Wenjuan did not show up.
Second Sister Qiao waited for two hours. She was a little angry and called Qiao Jiahui to ask about it. Qiao Jiahui looked confused and said, "No, Sister Wenjuan left home at 8 o'clock in the morning."
"Didn't you see her?"
"No."
Now, Second Sister Qiao also realized something was wrong, "She didn't go back?"
"No."
Qiao Jiahui murmured, “I thought she had been talking to you for a long time, so she hasn’t come back yet.”
Second Sister Qiao immediately realized something, "Something happened to Li Wenjuan."
She stood up and said, "Tell someone to find Li Wenjuan and check the entire route she took this morning."
Qiao Jiahui naturally agreed. After hanging up the phone, he was so anxious that he subconsciously went to find someone for help.
"Brother Qiurun, sister-in-law, Sister Wenjuan is missing."
As soon as these words fell, Jiang Meishu, who had originally planned to pack up and return to Yangcheng, immediately stood up and asked, "What do you mean Sister Wenjuan is missing?"
"Qiao Jiahui, please explain clearly."
Qiao Jiahui was sweating profusely with anxiety. "It was this morning. Sister Wenjuan had an appointment with my second sister to discuss the renovation of the Qiao family's Midtown Mall, but my second sister waited for her for two hours and she didn't show up."
"Sister-in-law, you know Sister Wenjuan is always punctual. There's no way she would leave my second sister for a few hours without saying hello."
Jiang Meishu said subconsciously, "They found Wenjuan."
They all knew that the bigwigs in the Hong Kong film industry had been looking for the advertising planner behind the indenture.
But the other party had been looking for it for some time before.
Later, when they noticed that the box office of "The Contract" was gradually declining, they thought that the other party had given up, but it turned out that they hadn't.
It turned out that they were waiting here.
Jiang Meishu's palms were sweaty. "They mistook Sister Wenjuan for me and took her away."
She subconsciously looked at Liang Qiurun, "Lao Liang, what should we do now?"
Jiang Meishu has always been law-abiding in the past and has never experienced such a thing.
Liang Qiurun was relatively calm. "First, let's confirm where Li Wenjuan went, and then plan our next move."
After saying this, he went to ask Qiao Jiahui, "Is the police system in Hong Kong dark?"
How should Qiao Jiahui respond?
He hesitated, "There are good people and bad people."
"But if they really are someone from the film industry who took Sister Wenjuan away, I think calling the police wouldn't be as quick as calling my father."
Although he really didn't want to go find his father, at this point, there was no better way.
Liang Qiurun hummed, "Then let's do it in three steps."
"Go find Brother Qiao, and have your second sister call the police. She's the person involved. I'll take He Ping with me to look for clues."
Liang Qiurun is indeed a capable person. No matter what happens, he can remain calm and composed.
Perhaps because she was too calm, Jiang Meishu's panicked mood gradually calmed down. "Sister Wenjuan, is anything going to happen?"
She looked at him with some anticipation in her eyes.
Liang Qiurun was silent for a moment, "Normally speaking, no."
He said against his will, "Because they want the value of Li Wenjuan. The faster we find her, the safer she will be."
vice versa.
Jiang Meishu bit her lip and forced herself to calm down. "Can you just let the police go find those people?"
They all knew that it was those people who did it.
"There is no evidence."
Liang Qiurun touched Jiang Meishu's hair and said, "Jiang Jiang, can you leave this matter to me?"
"Wait for me at home."
Jiang Meishu shook her head. "I'm just worried waiting at home. Lao Liang, I want to be with you—" Before she could even utter the two words, she changed her words and said, "I'll stay at home."
If Liang Qiurun and He Ping went out and a fight really broke out, she would be a burden if she followed them.
Liang Qiurun nodded and said, "Just stay home and don't go anywhere. Lock the door and have Sister Zhang guard outside."
At this point, he was still worried, even though the person arrested was not Jiang Meishu.
After all, it is a crime to possess a treasure.
*
When Liang Qiurun, Qiao Jiahui and others were looking for Li Wenjuan everywhere, Li Wenjuan was blindfolded with a black cloth and taken to Xiao's Film Company.
When there was light in front of her eyes again, Li Wenjuan had completely calmed down.
She opened her eyes and looked at the people around her.
She didn't say anything.
Xu Conggang spoke first, "Ms. Li, I'm sorry to meet you in this way."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Li Wenjuan probably knew who he was, because she also knew that Chen Jinshan and Qiao Jiahui were being followed.
Li Wenjuan forced herself to calm down, "Someone from Xiao Films?"
As soon as these words fell, Xu Conggang's eyes flashed, "Miss Li is really a smart person. It seems that she knows us in advance."
"I wonder if Miss Li has any plans to turn from evil to good?"
At this moment, Li Wenjuan knew that the other party mistook her for Jiang Meishu.
She then took advantage of the situation and said, "Abandon the dark and join the light? I don't know what you mean?"
"Miss Li, stop pretending." Xu Conggang smiled. "Since you can recognize who we are at a glance, then you must know why we are looking for you."
Li Wenjuan lowered her head and said nothing, with just the right amount of fear on her face.
Seeing her like this, Xu Conggang felt even more that he had found the right person. "Ms. Li, don't be afraid. We came here to cooperate with you."
"You are a master, a noble, and our guest of honor."
Li Wenjuan sneered after hearing this. She held out her bound wrists and asked, "How can such a distinguished person be a guest of honor?"
Xu Conggang was not embarrassed at all. Instead, he smiled and explained, "Isn't this a helpless thing? I'm afraid Miss Li will look down on our Xiao Film Company."
He lowered his head and untied Li Wenjuan's wrists himself. "Ms. Li, it's because the people under you were ignorant. I apologize on their behalf."
Li Wenjuan was studying at a university in Hong Kong. She knew the expressions of the upper class too well. They said one thing to one person and another thing to another person. To them, nothing was more important than their own interests.
Li Wenjuan stretched her wrists, then stood up and looked at Xu Cong for a while.
"What do you want me for?"
She didn't mention that it was illegal.
There is no point in talking to these people about breaking the law.
Xu Conggang was surprised by Li Wenjuan's intelligence. He poured her a cup of tea and then said slowly, "We were amazed by the movie promotional advertisement planned by Miss Li."
"I wonder if Miss Li is willing to share this method with us."
"Of course, we won't let Miss Li share with us for free." Xu Conggang pointed at Xiao's Films, "If Miss Li joins us, you will be the third in command of Xiao's Films."
Shaw Films is the leading company in Hong Kong. It can be said that they have monopolized 80% of the movies on the market.
Xu Conggang thought that anyone who knew Xiao's Film Company well would be able to resist the temptation of being the third in command.
This represents status, power and money in Hong Kong.
Li Wenjuan thought to herself, I don’t trust you at all, you’re the third in command. It’s a good thing she didn’t get sold out by this group of ruffians, but she can’t say this openly.
She smiled, "Mr. Xu, you think too highly of me. The movie's advertising plan wasn't thought up by me alone, but by our entire team. That's one thing, and secondly, this advertising plan was a flash in the pan. Not only me, but even our team doesn't have the ability to replicate it. So, Mr. Xu, I'm afraid you've come to the wrong person."
Xu Conggang had a smile on his face, but when he heard Li Wenjuan's words, the smile disappeared and was replaced by gloom.
"Ms. Li, I believe the price offered by Xiao Pictures is not low. If you can't even accept this, don't blame us for being ruthless."
"By then, it's still unknown whether Ms. Li can walk out of Xiao's Films alive."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Qiang came out and scolded Xu Conggang, "Conggang, what's wrong with you? Isn't it too much to threaten the delicate Miss Li with such a thing?"
He turned around and apologized to Li Wenjuan with an apologetic look on his face, "Miss Li, it's really my fault. I didn't manage my subordinates well enough, which led to this situation. I apologize to you on his behalf."
From top to bottom, everyone in the entire Xiao Film Company uses the same method.
It's just like giving someone a slap and then giving them a red date.
Li Wenjuan lowered her head and smiled sarcastically. When she looked up again, she was calm and said, "Boss Xiao, what do you want me to do?"
Xiao Qiang applauded, "I admire a woman like you who is so courageous and thoughtful."
"What I want is very simple. I just want you to use the same promotional method as the indenture for all the movies under Xiao's umbrella."
Everyone can see the box office success of "The Contract", it is a 100% money-printing machine.
Li Wenjuan sighed, "Boss Xiao, you really think too highly of me."
"I can tell you how the advertisement for the indenture came about."
"When director Chen Jinshan was preparing to release the film, a friend of mine pointed out that the film had not been advertised and was worried that the promotion was not adequate."
"After the other party raised this issue, I met with Director Chen Jinshan, Qiao Jiahui, and the three Qiao sisters to discuss the advertising arrangements for these three channels."
“This is simply not something that one person can do.”
"And the right time, right place, and right people are all essential. That's why I said it's useless for you to come to me. I can't accomplish such a big thing alone."
"This is a fact. Even if you want to kill me now, I can't change it."
When Xiao Qiang heard her words, he raised his eyelids and said, "Then I will recruit your entire team to come to Xiao's Film Company."
Li Wenjuan spread her hands and said, "Yes, that depends on whether you have any solution."
"At least, I can't handle Chen Jinshan's side, Qiao Jiahui, and the three Qiao sisters' side, I can't do it either."
"You see, I'm just an ordinary person from the mainland. I was lucky enough to accidentally run into this incident this time."
Xiao Qiang looked at her for a moment, as if trying to determine the truth in her words.
After a long while, he asked, "You said your friend offered to advertise the movie. Who was it?"
Li Wenjuan said calmly, "Liang Rui."
"who?"
"Liang Rui."
The name was so unfamiliar that Xiao Qiang didn't react. He went to see Xu Conggang.
Xu Conggang recalled for a while, "This seems to be Liang Qiurun's son?"
Since he was going to check the people around Chen Jinshan, he would definitely check all of Liang Qiurun's relationships.
"Yes, it was him." Li Wenjuan said naturally, "Liang Rui is very talented. He was admitted to Tsinghua University and is a student there. He heard his stepmother mention the movie, and he casually mentioned that he wanted to do advertising."
Xiao Qiang didn't say anything, just looked at her.
Li Wenjuan tried to keep her tone calm. "After he and Jiang Meilan brought it up, Jiang Meilan discussed it with us. We all agreed that this method was feasible, so we implemented it this way."
"However, the specific details were not finalized by us, but by Liang Rui."
Sure enough, after Xiao Qiang heard it, he asked, "Where is Liang Rui?"
Li Wenjuan, "The capital, studying at Tsinghua University."
She thought to herself, you guys go find Liang Rui.
Let’s see if you have the ability to take Liang Rui away from Tsinghua University.
If these people really dare to extend their hands to the capital, they will surely be defeated.
Xiao Qiang was also stunned when he heard the word "capital". Xu Conggang subconsciously said, "National Tsing Hua University is the best university in mainland China?"
"right."
Xu Conggang murmured, "This is a bit difficult."
They can arrest people at will in Hong Kong because they are the local tyrants of Hong Kong. But if they go to the mainland, they will probably be arrested before they even get there.
It is said that you need a certificate to travel to the mainland.
What an old-fashioned way of traveling.
Xiao Qiang also noticed it. He knocked on the table and asked, "Can you ask Liang Rui to come out?"
"Should we ask him to come to Hong Kong?"
Li Wenjuan was full of nonsense. "I want to, but it's difficult. First, the school is very strict. Second, Liang Rui is a top student. Third, it's still the most difficult thing to do."
"What?"
"Besides Liang Rui, there is another person who has made great efforts here."
"who?"
"Brother Jiang Meilan, Jiang Nanfang." She looked at Xu Conggang with some surprise, "Didn't you check these things when you were doing your investigation?"
This was a calm way of setting a trap for Xu Conggang. Sure enough, as soon as she said this, Xu Conggang noticed that the boss gave him a fierce look.
Xu Conggang was truly wronged. "I just checked the people around Chen Keshan. How could I know all this?"
This fucking thing is almost going to involve Liang Qiurun, Jiang Meishu, and their entire eighteen generations of ancestors.
"Then it's normal that you don't know."
Li Wenjuan said nonchalantly, "Because most people don't know Jiang Nanfang, he's quite impressive. He's Jiang Meilan's younger brother. He went straight to Capital University of Science and Technology after graduating from junior high school, graduated in just two years, and stayed on to teach at Capital University of Science and Technology. He's also a key figure at the Capital Research Institute. It's said that his teacher is also a leading figure in the physics world, and he's accompanied by guards whenever he travels."
With each word she uttered, a drop of sweat dripped from Xu Conggang's forehead. "Why are you saying this?"
Li Wenjuan looked at him like he was a fool. "Of course it has something to do with this advertising plan. Otherwise, do you think that Chen Jinshan, Qiao Jiahui, and I could come up with such a brilliant promotional advertisement?"
She sighed, “Mr. Xu, you really don’t know anything about people with high IQ.”
"It was Liang Rui who originally proposed advertising the movie, but the Jiangnan side helped fill in the details. The rest of the meeting and finding people was done by us, the generals."
She admitted it frankly, "Boss Xiao, Mr. Xu, you should have checked the backgrounds of all of us. You should know how much knowledge we have and how much we are worth."
"I'm going to say something offensive, but even the top people in the film industry like you wouldn't be able to think of something like this movie's advertising plan, let alone us outsiders."
"We were able to create this ad only because there are highly intelligent people behind it."
Xu Conggang felt a little better after being flattered, but he still had doubts. "You said it was Jiangnan Fang and Liang Rui, but what about the Xiangjiang University publicity case?"
Li Wenjuan, "It was Liang Rui and Jiang Nanfang who did it. They are college students and they understand the situation of college students the best. People like us who have graduated for many years would never think of this."
Xu Conggang wanted to ask more.
Xiao Qiang interrupted him and said directly to Li Wenjuan, "How can I get them to come and work for me?"
"Disaster."
Li Wenjuan spoke frankly, "People from mainland China are different from people from Hong Kong. They focus more on academic reputation. For example, the Jiangnan Fang family all teach at HKUST. They will definitely be the leading figures in the physics world in the future. They look down on us Hong Kong films."
Seeing Xu Conggang getting a little angry, Li Wenjuan sighed, "I know Mr. Xu can't accept it, but to be honest, the future of Jiangnan Fang is protected by the top management over there, and it's not something that outsiders like us can touch."
"Liang Rui is similar. He's a student at National Tsing Hua University and his future won't be bad. If they want to live a good life, they must cut off ties with Hong Kong."
"Only in this way can they climb higher in their industry."
Xiao Qiang, "If I cut off your hand, will they come?"
"Or, would you be willing to provide us with more advertising objections over the phone?"
Li Wenjuan's heart was pounding. "Boss Xiao, what do you think?"
She jokingly said, "I have no relationship with them, why should they want my hand and give up their future?"
"Mr. Xiao, please stop joking."
"If I were you, and I really wanted Liang Rui and Jiang Nanfang to serve you, I would have someone kidnap Liang Qiurun and Jiang Meilan."
She smiled, "After all, Liang Qiurun is Liang Rui's father, and Jiang Meilan is Jiang Nanfang's sister."
"This is blood relationship."
She looked serious on the surface, but was cursing in her heart, "Go ahead."
Go quickly.
Tie up Liang Qiurun and see if they will be beaten up by Liang Qiurun.
The same goes for Jiang Meishu. Li Wenjuan knows that there is a female killer named He Ping by her side.
The female killer kept clamoring that she was getting paid for nothing and had no work to do.
If Xiao Qiang and the others kidnap Jiang Meishu, wouldn't the female killer have work to do?
Besides, she was kidnapped, so she didn't believe that Liang Qiurun didn't take precautions!
Xiao Qiang seemed to be considering Li Wenjuan's suggestion. He felt something was wrong. "Aren't they your friends?"
"You're just selling out your friends like that?"
Li Wenjuan blinked, "I have no choice. I can only sell my friends to survive."
She urged, "Go ahead and capture Liang Qiurun and Jiang Meilan."
"Liang Rui and Jiang Nanfang surrendered, are you going?"
