Chapter 491: Threats of looting and smashing, who gives you face? [Combined Chapter]

Liu Xiaoli, who was watching from the side, found it interesting but did not try to stop it.

As the saying goes, 'work and rest should be combined'.

Girls' Generation members have been very busy lately, so it's nice to decompress once in a while.

Fortunately, we were about to return to the hotel, and the girls were still sensible.

Du Sheng took them into the car one by one and said with a smile:

"I just happen to have some time today, let's go to the pedestrian street together later.

Let's go taste Hangzhou's delicacies tonight to make up for your hard work."

In addition to promoting the two dramas, Liu Weiqiang has been informed that "Initial D" will start filming in early July.

In other words, there is little free time left.

Tang Yan and Liu Shishi stopped playing, their beautiful eyes lit up:
"Great! But this is not enough to make up for it.

During this time, we were either running around for promotions, filming, or practicing singing. We didn’t even have the fun of going shopping together.”

Liu Yifei glanced at Liu Xiaoli, and also took Du Sheng's arm and said coquettishly:

"Cousin, you promised to take us to the amusement park and have a big meal together. How about tonight?"

Liu Xiaoli's management of the Girls' Generation group is very strict, and they have almost no free time.

Moreover, it is not advisable to eat spicy food during the running schedule to avoid affecting your physical and mental health.

Liu Yifei is obviously relying on Du Sheng for support and is starting to act like a spoiled brat and ask for privileges.

Du Sheng would not break his promise, so he comforted the maids and promised to go shopping together after dinner in the evening.

However, plans never keep up with changes.

When everyone finished their meal in the evening, they found that Wang Jinhua who came over had a gloomy look on her face and was talking to Liu Xiaoli.

After seeing Du Sheng and others, Wang Jinhua smiled again, but it was still a bit forced.

Du Sheng asked a few maids to prepare first, and then stepped forward and asked:

"You seem to be in a bad mood, what happened?"

Wang Jinhua sighed and said:
"Something unexpected happened with 'Itazura na Kiss'..."

The series is expected to last for more than twenty episodes, and was originally scheduled to film the high school scenes in Bay City.

That is, the heroine falls in love with the hero at first sight and her confession is rejected, and then because of a miraculous fate, they live under the same roof and all kinds of interesting things happen.

This part is about ten episodes long, and after filming is completed, the filming will move to the mainland.

It’s just that since the main actors are basically all newcomers and Comic Film and Television has relatively high requirements, the filming has not been fast.

According to director Qu Youning, it is estimated that filming will be completed tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

Fortunately, Comey Films did not cause any more trouble during this period.

Yang Qinkui and Xu Xiyuan were still in Neon some time ago and have not returned yet, so Bada Media has not asked about them for the time being.

But all that changed after these two came back last week.

Before filming began, a group of dwarf mules rushed into the set and demanded that the crew pay 30 moss coins for protection.

After that, you have to pay 5 moss coins on time every day, and another 10 moss coins for dismantling the scenery, otherwise the scenery will be burned.

Qu Youning knew that this was related to the historical traditions of Bay City, and even speculated that it was instructed by someone and was a follow-up to the last "casting change incident".

He wanted to refuse, but during the filming, people often threw glass bottles and other debris from great heights, which greatly affected the progress.

As for finding connections?
It's useless.

Last year, the Bay City Law Enforcement Department seized nearly 32 guns and rounds of ammunition, enough to arm an army.

There were 130 recorded shooting cases, an average of one every three days.

The most exaggerated incident happened in February this year when a grumpy old man was dissatisfied with the police confiscating his gun, so he shot the law enforcement officer directly, firing 2 shots in a row.

Why are these social group members so arrogant?
The answer is simple, many of them are still police officers.

Some social group leaders even hold important positions in certain sectors.

This is because there is a strange rule in the local area that if you are a certain level of criminal, you can enjoy the privilege of not going to jail.

Commonly known as the golden scroll of immunity from death!

Therefore, seeking connections in the white world is almost like crying wolf.

After listening to this, Liu Xiaoli and several girls from Girls' Generation fell silent.

They didn't expect that the prosperous Bay City had such a ferocious side.

Liu Yifei was even a little worried about the safety of Tong Liya and the others.

When they were filming "The Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" before, they got along pretty well.

"So, the crew gave it, but it hasn't settled down yet, right?"

Du Sheng chuckled and asked playfully.

He knew that there were no less than 20 community groups in Bay City, with more than members.

The largest societies among them are the Zhulian Gang, the Sihai Gang, and the Tiandi Meng.

And Yang Yukui is one of the leaders of the Tiandi League.

"Yes."

Wang Jinhua sighed:
"Just last night, Tong Liya and the others had just finished filming when they were in trouble..."

These days, the short mule has been causing trouble for no reason, and Tong Liya and the others are a little nervous.

Therefore, after each filming, I would return to the dormitory exhausted and never stay or hang out outside.

Despite this, someone still found a loophole.

Before they entered the door, they saw a courier box next to the counter.

Everyone was stunned for a moment. Was this a gift from fans or sent from the country?
The female security guard checked the outer box and found nothing unusual.

"Liya, it's sent to you."

Tong Liya opened the express box with great anticipation.

However, the next moment he withdrew his hand as if he had been electrocuted, staggered backwards, and his face turned pale.

Others also screamed in fear and hid far away as if they were avoiding the plague.

Inside the express box was a skinned and frozen dead mouse!

Faced with such a sudden and vicious incident, even a person with a big heart would not be able to bear it, let alone a few girls?

The fact that they did not faint from fright shows that they have become stronger after experiencing all kinds of difficulties.

“Those people are so abominable!”

When Liu Shishi, Tang Yan and others heard this, their faces turned pale.

Liu Yifei clenched her hands and said angrily:

"How could they do such a thing? Aren't they afraid of retribution?"

Du Sheng frowned and said:

"Did you find out?"

He had guessed that there would be follow-up to the incident, so he sent two female security guards over.

I didn't expect the other party to play such a big game.

"It Started with a Kiss" has made it clear that it will not cooperate with tainted artists such as Xu Xiyuan. Is the other party planning to turn the table?

Wang Jinhua was also furious and said:
"The mailing address has been tracked and someone is being arranged to handle it."

She directly used her connections to demand an explanation no matter what.

Du Sheng knew that he would not be able to do anything to the culprit, so he pondered:

“Coordinate with the crew and after today’s scenes are finished, no matter how much is left, we will move back to the mainland.

Sister Hua, please follow me. You must ensure the safety of the personnel even if it costs a lot of money."

He knew that the people behind Xu Xiyuan had most likely abandoned the cooperation and were even going to ruin the show.

But just based on this? Haha.

A hint of coldness flashed across Du Sheng's eyes.

If the other party still doesn't know whether to live or die, he doesn't mind giving him a chance to become rich.

Wang Jinhua didn't say anything, just nodded and turned to make arrangements.

The girls from Girls' Generation were feeling a little low and weren't in the mood to go shopping.

And they knew that Du Sheng had something to do next, so they tactfully followed Liu Xiaoli back to the hotel first.

Du Sheng was about to return to the company when he received a call on the way.

"Talk? Okay."

After answering the call, he looked like he was smiling:

"Yaoyang, don't go to the company yet, go to Zhongyao Entertainment."

Zhongyao Entertainment is located next to the Shanshui Hotel. It is a company that covers film and television investment, production, and distribution.

It is said that someone from Bay City is behind this.

However, Du Sheng was certain that there was a connection with Comey Films involved.

Because the person who just called was Cheng Yuxi.

Feng Jiarui didn't know if it was because he was stimulated by Du Sheng's words last time, so he brought her to the mainland yesterday to see if the scene of "the sun and the moon changing into a new sky" really existed.

Of course, this also means avoiding the vortex of conflict between Bada Media and Star Media.

But he still underestimated Yang Yukui's despicable methods.

In order to complete the drama "It Started with a Kiss" and not wanting his investment to go to waste, he felt it necessary to talk to Du Sheng about the follow-up.

"What did you say! Kick out Bada TV?"

But as soon as the two sides met, Du Sheng shocked Feng Jiarui as soon as he opened his mouth.

Cheng Yuxi also seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if she had something to hide.

Du Sheng sat there calmly and said calmly:

"Why, have you signed a broadcast agreement?"

Feng Jiarui did not answer but asked coldly:
"Do you know what the consequences of angering Yang Yukui are?"

He had lived in Wancheng for so long that he knew very well how powerful Yang Qiukui was in both the black and white worlds there.

Collecting protection money a few days ago, obstructing the filming of the crew, and even scaring people with dead rats last night, these are just playing house.

If the other party really goes crazy and gets angry, he may cause casualties without considering the consequences.

In the end, you can't even do anything to Yang Qiukui, and the crew is the one who suffers the most.

Because of this, Bada Media was very powerful in the entertainment circle in Bay City and once formed a monopoly. Few people wanted to offend it.

Not to mention, the company owns multiple channels and many well-known programs and dramas. Such highly concentrated resources and influence have attracted countless people to curry favor with it.

If Badada TV is kicked out, it is unknown whether "It Started with a Kiss" can be broadcast in Bay City.

"What consequences?"

Du Sheng said coldly:
"The worst that can happen is that I will lose the Bay City market. I can afford it." "Mr. Du, please think twice."

Cheng Yuxi smiled bitterly and said:
“It’s okay for one or two shows not to premiere in Bay City, but what about the follow-ups?

Besides, our Komi Films’ roots are in Bay City, and we absolutely cannot give up on this place.”

It is not a big problem that Star Media does not plan to open up the market, but they cannot do that.

At the very least, the broadcast of future TV series cannot avoid the monopoly of Bada Media.

"Then follow the terms I mentioned before."

Du Sheng refused to give in and said:

“You sell the copyright to us, and the rest has nothing to do with you.

Even the actors you arranged can be retained. This is my biggest concession."

"impossible!"

Feng Jiarui rejected it outright and said without question:
"We put so much effort into this drama, we will never give up."

He and Yang Yankui had a brotherly relationship and didn't worry about revenge at all.

On the contrary, they came here with a certain purpose.

Feng Jiarui signaled Cheng Yuxi to hand over the prepared document:
"If you still want this show to be broadcast in Bay City, to keep the Bay City market, and even don't want to provoke endless retaliation, then sign an agreement."

What businessmen value most is profit, so he is not afraid that Du Sheng will not agree.

Even if Du Sheng does not agree, Star Media behind him will consider it more in order to expand the market.

Wang Yaoyang, who was standing next to him, was a little curious. He couldn't help but move closer to take a look, and his eyes widened immediately.

【Investment Transfer Agreement of "Itazura na Kiss"】

To put it simply, Star Media transferred 3% of its shares to Bada Media and agreed to replace Xu Xiyuan with the lead role in exchange for protection and Yang Qiukui's friendship.

"For the sake of a play, I have to please Yang Yukui and Xu Xiyuan?"

Du Sheng glanced at it casually and laughed:

"My knees are too stiff to bend down."

After saying that, he turned and left.

"Mr. Du——"

Cheng Yuxi was secretly anxious:
"Godfather still underestimates the other party. This can't be solved by threats at all."

When I think about the recent incidents that have happened to the crew one after another, not only did they not help, they also chose to just stand by and watch.

Could it be that the godfather is also fanning the flames?

If true.

It's over, completely over, there is no room for maneuver.

Feng Jiarui looked at Du Sheng who was about to leave with a gloomy face:
"You'd better think it over. If you don't sign the agreement, can you afford the consequences?"

He would never allow Du Sheng to leave like this!

If he can't even convince a mainlander, how can he gain a foothold in the circle in the future?
How would Yang Yankui laugh at him?
Hearing the threatening words, Du Sheng turned back to Feng Jiarui and looked him straight in the eyes:

"Are you threatening me?"

"Do I need to threaten you?"

Feng Jiarui felt relieved when he saw Du Sheng coming back, and a sneer of disdain appeared on the corner of his mouth:

"I'm just reminding you, young people, don't be so ignorant!"

Du Sheng looked around and saw many people from Zhongyao Entertainment outside the door. He smiled and said:

"You like the feeling of being in control, don't you?"

“Celebrities who shine brightly in the eyes of ordinary people are like chess pieces that can be manipulated by others in front of you.

You can decide their fate with just one sentence, or change the cooperation agreement with just one sentence, forcing others to give in...

Does this feeling of having the power of life and death make you feel like the so-called Godfather? "

Feng Jiarui's eyebrows trembled slightly, and he said in a deep voice:

"You know the consequences, yet you still dare to act so recklessly. Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?"

Du Sheng chuckled, with a hint of pity in his eyes:

“You were praised so highly in the past that you almost forgot your own position.

I admit that you have achieved something in Bay City, but what does it mean? "

Feng Jiarui's face was twisted with anger, and he stared at Du Sheng:

"If Komi Films and Bada Media join forces, do you believe that news and dramas related to your Star Media will not be able to get out in Bay City?"

"There are people who can ban Interstellar Media, but it's definitely not you."

Du Sheng looked at him and said:

"One is a gangster and the other is just a businessman, are they qualified to talk about banning them?

A bunch of frogs in a well, who do you think you are?"

Hearing Du Sheng's words, Feng Jiarui's face suddenly turned pale.

Over in Bay City, Komi and Bada Media have joined forces and seem to be very powerful, almost monopolizing most of the film and television industry.

But that's it, really.

Talking about banning, don’t ask whether they have the power to do so!

Even if there is, it is limited to that one and a half acres of land.

The most he could do was cut off cooperation and contact with Du Sheng.

Even if Yang Qunkui's Bada Media was involved, they would not be able to break the opponent's skin.

After being exposed by Du Sheng for his bluff, Feng Jiarui became angry and embarrassed:
"Mr. Du, I came to negotiate because I don't want our cooperation to fall apart.

This agreement does no harm to you or me, so don't be ungrateful!"

He didn't say any more threats and didn't bother to talk nonsense.

Because if you know Yang Yankui, it is not difficult to make someone disappear quietly.

"Don't know what's good for you? Haha, since it's harmless, take it back."

Du Sheng suddenly shook his wrist, and the document in his hand seemed to be pushed by an invisible force and flew onto Feng Jiarui's neck.

"Snapped!"

Even without the aid of amplification equipment, the loud sound still echoed in the venue.

"you--"

Feng Jiarui touched his neck, looking shocked and angry.

Although Du Sheng's action did not cause him any actual harm, and his skin did not even turn red, it made him lose face in front of others.

Before Du Sheng left, he said coldly:
“It is impossible for this drama to cooperate with Bada Media, and the post-production will be carried out by Star Media.

If you disagree, you can file a lawsuit now."

Feng Jiarui's chest heaved, and he wished he could kill this troublesome little bastard in front of him.

When the two parties signed the contract, they agreed that the opening ceremony would be held in Bay City and the post-production would be done by Star Media.

As for who Bay City will cooperate with and where it will be broadcast, there has been no discussion yet.

He had never expected things to turn out like this, so he couldn't even turn against her.

It seems that Yang Qiukui's pressure on the crew a few days ago not only had no effect, but also aroused this kid's stubborn temper.

None of the agreements proposed by Yang Qiukui were accomplished, and instead he was embarrassed.

As for having actors go on strike?
In the end, Comey Films will most likely lose both the wife and the army.

Because this kind of thing is too easy to leave a handle.

Looking at Du Sheng's leaving back and listening to the whispers of the employees outside, Feng Jiarui's face became even uglier.

"Master Qi."

Cheng Yuxi stepped forward and whispered to comfort him:
"Forget it. After this cooperation, there won't be a next time."

She was very clear about Du Sheng's attitude, and there was no room for maneuver.

What's more, this time it was because they asked for too much, and they couldn't blame the other party at all.

It’s just that Yang Qiukui stretched his arm too far.

But they cannot give up this secretly intertwined interest.

"never mind?"

Feng Jiarui gritted his teeth and said:

"Impossible! Even if we can swallow this anger, do you think Lao Yang can swallow it?"

How could Yang Qiukui remain indifferent when Du Sheng refused so firmly?

Unfortunately, we just learned that the crew has already dismantled and relocated, and the director Qu Youning even personally led the way across the sea, so no one could stop them even if they wanted to.

Feng Jiarui pondered for a moment and said expressionlessly:
"Go contact Lao Yang and tell him the truth about this matter."

They have done the most they can by doing this.

As for what dangers Du Sheng will encounter next?
That has nothing to do with him.

Feng Jiarui stared at the direction where Du Sheng left, subconsciously twisted his stiff neck, and his eyes became cold.

"Godfather! You—"

Cheng Yuxi was about to agree when she suddenly screamed:
"Why is your neck swollen?!"

"what?"

Feng Jiarui reached out and touched it, and was immediately shocked.

I hurried to the bathroom and saw that my neck was not only red and swollen, but also a little crooked, looking quite hideous and scary.

“Is the food from the mainland not clean?”

Feng Jiarui was shocked and angry, and quickly covered his neck and shouted:

"Send me to the hospital! Quick!"

He didn't doubt anything else.

After all, Du Sheng didn't come close, he just threw the document over.

"When you got off the plane earlier, you accidentally hit the cabin door. Could this be related to this incident?"

Seeing that his neck was becoming more and more swollen and blood vessels were exposed, Cheng Yuxi could no longer care about anything else and quickly called the bodyguard in.

As for the follow-up of "Itazura na Kiss", it was simply left aside.

The scene suddenly fell into chaos.
