Chapter 125 Boss Cai's Little Accident

Chapter 125 Boss Cai's Little Accident
Zhang Yuan found a quiet and deserted corner, took out a cigarette from his pocket, took out a cigarette, put it in front of his nose and smelled it to refresh himself.

Lighters are not allowed at the airport now, so he couldn't light a cigarette, and this was the only way he could entertain himself.

Glancing in the direction of the lounge, he silently pondered what to do next.

Cai Yinong is not an ordinary woman.

Don't be fooled by her amiable appearance, she always smiles and looks quite gentle.

But deep down, she is a strong woman.

Zhang Yuan chuckled. This was all nonsense. Anyone who could set up a company and build such a big business had to be a strong person.

Besides, there are very few good people in the entertainment industry.

He was born in southern Fujian and grew up in Hong Kong. He worked as a reporter as an adult and successfully entered the Hong Kong film and television circles. He vigorously expanded his network and returned to the mainland when he was less than 30 years old and started his own film and television company.

Therefore, most of the cast and leading actors in Tangren Film and Television’s early TV dramas were from Hong Kong Island.

Speaking of which, the most famous event in later generations should be the war of words with the screenwriter Yu Da, who was neither male nor female, neither masculine nor feminine, and who made his fortune by plagiarism.

There is no right or wrong in conflicts of interest, but there is right or wrong in plagiarism.

While their own drama "Startling by Each Step" was still being filmed, screenwriter Yu came up with a plagiarized "Palace Lock Heart Jade", which was really unethical and against the rules.

After all, Sugar Man has bought the copyright.

The subsequent "Story of Yanxi Palace" plagiarized "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace".

"Palace Lock and Key" even plagiarized Qiong Yao and copied "The Plum Blossom Mark".

However, screenwriter Yu, who is good at hype, is able to release the film first every time and achieve better results than the copyright holder.

Those who do evil will eventually perish. Although they may be successful for a while, they will make countless enemies and eventually be struck by thunder.

Cai Yinong, the loser in the verbal fight, may not be a good man, but he is much more well-behaved and loyal than the screenwriter.

He is very copyright-conscious and is willing to spend a lot of money to purchase the original work, which at least ensures the healthy development of the performing arts creation market.

In addition, Boss Cai is really good at supporting people, especially Hu Ge, whom he has never abandoned. After he had a car accident, he would rather shut down the crew and wait for him to recover than replace him with someone else. Just based on this point, I am afraid that 99% of the bosses in the entertainment industry cannot do this.

Being able to act so "willfully" also indirectly proves Boss Cai's means and courage.

"She went to Taiwan to discuss business at this time. I'm afraid her purpose is the same as mine!"

But just because she abides by the rules and loves to buy copyrights, Zhang Yuan can conclude that her purpose may coincide with his own.

He knew very well that if he were to be put together with Cai Yinong, it would be equivalent to...

Comparison between human whip and horse whip.

Comparison between cauliflower and smallpox.

Comparison between Guo Jingming and Yao Ming.

That's not even on a track!

In terms of strength, his leg hair is thicker than my thighs!
"My only advantage now is the information gap."

"She didn't know my purpose, but I guessed hers."

Zhang Yuan narrowed his eyes and thought carefully about the plan.

"Although I am weak, I am not without a chance of winning."

"But if I win, I'm afraid I'll offend this female boss."

But then I thought, if you want to be successful in the entertainment industry, you have to offend people.

Besides, Boss Cai is considered to be one of those people with relatively gentle methods and a kinder temper in the Chinese entertainment industry.

It is much better to offend her than to offend old guys like Big Beard, Huayi, and the Xiang family.

What's more, he has made up his mind. Even if he is facing a bearded man today, he must complete the task at hand!
Zhang Yuan threw the cigarette between his fingers, which had been used for sniffing and whose outer cover had been wetted by his breath, into the wastebasket. He took out his Nokia and dialed a number steadily.

"Hello, Mr. Song."

"Yes, I'm at the airport, planning to go to Formosa, thanks to you."

The person on the other end of the phone was Song Jianguo, who had become the CEO of Air China.

After a brief exchange of greetings, he spoke sincerely, "Mr. Song, there is something I would like to ask you for help with..."

After talking with Song Jianguo, Zhang Yuan closed his eyes and let out a long breath.

He got the result he wanted.

But it's not over yet, this is just the first step.

He pressed the phone keypad again and dialed another number.

"It's rare for someone to contact me on their own initiative."

The phone beeped a few times and was picked up. A gentle yet playful female voice came from the other end.

"Sister Jingwen, I'm here to fulfill my promise."

"I'm already at the airport and will be in Formosa in a few hours."

"Really?" Jia Jingwen immediately perked up when she heard this: "Don't lie to me!"

"Of course not. I was counting on you to take me to visit the beautiful scenery of the island."

"No problem. I just happen to be free recently and I don't have a boyfriend to hang out with. I'm so bored." Jia Jingwen casually mentioned her singleness: "When are you going to arrive? I'll pick you up at the airport."

"Okay... By the way, I have something I want to ask you for help..."

Zhang Yuan talked in detail about his ideas and how he could help.

"I can help you, but it depends on your performance."

Even through the phone, across more than 1,600 kilometers, he seemed to be able to see the mischievous expression on Alyssa Chia's face.

"Okay, let's talk about it when we meet."

After talking with Alyssa Chia, Zhang Yuan felt much more at ease.

But he still decided to take out the last insurance.

This time, he called Liu Tao, with whom he had worked on the same drama not long ago.

"Xiao Zhangyuan, how are you doing lately?"

Liu Tao's voice is more charming than Jia Jingwen's, but similarly, she was obviously very happy to receive his call.

"Do you miss me?"

"If you miss me, we can arrange a dinner in the capital after I finish filming my scenes."

"Of course. I'll treat you then." Zhang Yuan responded with a smile.

"Hahaha." Liu Tao's signature laugh came from the phone.

"Sister Tao, I just happened to have something to do and need to go to Taiwan."

"I seldom travel far, can you give me a blessing?"

"You called me just for this?" Liu Tao thought about tearing his underwear but couldn't think of this reason.

"I see from your face that you are a blessed person. You will be rich and powerful in the future, so your blessing is important to me too."

"Haha, you're really good at talking. Okay!"

Liu Tao cleared his throat and said, "I wish my brother Zhang Yuan a safe trip to Taiwan... Is that ok?"

"That's great, thank you, Sister Tao."

After chatting for a while and hanging up the phone, Zhang Yuan finally felt his shoulders relax.

"Well, Mazu's blessing is coming soon, and we must get it this time!"

Facing the large mirror in the bathroom, he rubbed his cheeks and brows with his fingers, then put on the same kind smile as before. Zhang Yuan returned to the VIP lounge with the lucky BUFF given by Liu Tao.

"Mr. Cai, I'm back..."

Cai Yinong and I continued chatting and laughing.

In fact, Boss Cai was quite interested in him. He thought that this young actor was good-looking, had good manners, and seemed quite humble.

If there is a chance, I will get to play a few cameo roles in my own films and observe my performance.

If it is suitable, it is not a bad idea to bring it under the umbrella of Tangren. She thought it was a good idea, and she was naturally friendly and kind to people with the mentality of getting to know them more.

But what she didn't know was.

This young man, who she considered to be quite "modest", would soon add some intensity to her stable and happy life.

"Sir, Miss, our VIP guests on this flight can now board the plane." A stewardess in red came forward with a professional smile and said softly.

Passengers stood up and headed to the boarding area.

They passed by one by one in an orderly manner. Unlike usual, Zhang Yuan did not deliberately walk behind people with higher status than himself, but walked half a step faster than Cai Yinong.

Therefore, his ID and air ticket were first handed to the flight attendant at the counter.

"Please." The flight attendant raised her hand and handed the ticket back to Zhang Yuan, motioning him to move forward.

Boss Cai followed closely behind, while Zhang Yuan politely stepped aside and waited for Miss Cai with a smile.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, our system shows that your business visa to Taiwan is abnormal." The flight attendant checking the tickets looked at the name on the ticket, her face changed slightly, and she spoke quickly.

"What?" Cai Yinong slightly opened her red lips, very surprised.

"I'm very sorry, there is something wrong with your visa to Formosa. You need to wait patiently for our airport to verify it."

"You mean... I can't get on the plane?" Boss Cai's eyes were filled with disbelief.

"Yes, please go to the VIP lounge and wait first. We will help you as soon as possible." The flight attendant still maintained a professional smile and spoke in a gentle tone.

But the soft voice sounded as hard as a steel knife to Boss Cai's ears.

"What's wrong? Why won't you let my friend get on the plane?"

At this moment, Zhang Yuan's acting skills burst out, his eyebrows raised, his expression serious, and he stepped forward to question.

"Hello sir, it's just a few minor issues and we need the lady's cooperation."

"Mr. Cai..."

"It's okay, Zhang Yuan, you board the plane first." Cai Yinong was relieved to see his hurried and concerned look.

We have only known each other for a short time, but he is quite enthusiastic... Cai Yinong has a good impression of Zhang Yuan.

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the plane." Zhang Yuan acted as if he was reluctant to leave and looked back every few steps, and disappeared around the corner of the corridor bridge.

"The first step is accomplished!"

Only after he was comfortably seated did he take off his disguise and relax his tense nerves.

I took out my cell phone and saw the text message Song Jianguo sent me.

"48 hours at most."

Of course, the "small problem" that Cai Yinong encountered was caused by Zhang Yuan.

This was exactly what he asked Air China CEO Song Jianguo to do.

After all, Air China was established not long ago, so it is reasonable for the system to have some minor problems.

"Two days is definitely not enough." Zhang Yuan estimated that such an important business negotiation could not be completed in one go.

Even if he had already thought of a countermeasure in his mind in advance, the effect would be greatly reduced if the time was too short.

"It all depends on Alyssa Chia next."

The plane began to glide, but Cai Yinong still did not board the plane. Zhang Yuan was finally relieved.

He ordered a glass of red wine and fell into a deep sleep after drinking it.

More than three hours later, Zhang Yuan woke up in a daze at the gentle call of the flight attendant. He took a few sips of mineral water, got off the plane after waking up, and went straight to the parking garage.

Drip!

After walking around the garage for more than ten minutes, a silver-gray Mercedes sports car honked twice at him.

"Here it is!"

A white and tender arm stretched out from the car window and waved vigorously.

"You look quite handsome in a suit." After getting in the car, Jia Jingwen took off her sunglasses and looked him up and down: "It's very different from when he was in ancient costume."

"But I thought you weren't so kind to come and play with me." Jia Jingwen put her hands on her hips and pouted to express her dissatisfaction: "So you came to work and discuss business, and you came to see me by the way."

When he spoke to her on the phone before, Zhang Yuan told her about his itinerary.

Zhang Yuan understood that if she was really angry, she would not come to the airport to pick him up.

"Sister Jingwen, you seem to have lost weight."

"Really?" Jia Jingwen immediately put away her deliberately angry expression and smiled: "You have such a good eye."

"I've been playing golf recently to lose weight."

"No wonder, she's even more beautiful than when I last saw her."

"Hehehe, good job." Jia Jingwen hooked his chin with her finger painted with bright red nail polish: "Let's go, let's eat first."

With a step on the accelerator and the low roar of the engine, the two left the airport and came to a famous restaurant in downtown Taipei.

Three-cup chicken, preserved radish eggs, pineapple shrimp balls, shark fin and Buddha jumps over the wall...these specialties of Taiwan are naturally indispensable.

but……

Zhang Yuan looked at the food in front of him: fried oysters, fried pork and chicken kidneys, sesame oil double kidneys, sesame oil kidneys…

I always feel that the dishes ordered by Alyssa Chia are a bit too targeted.

"Sister Jingwen, I'm going to New Taipei City this afternoon."

"I'll drive you there." Alyssa Chia picked up an oyster and put it in his bowl.

"You are a big star. You will be photographed by paparazzi if you go out." Zhang Yuan looked at the pile of bowls in front of him and smiled helplessly.

"Please help me find a car and a driver. I'll need them for the next few days."

"No problem." Jia Jingwen smiled sweetly: "Eat it."

"Oh..." Zhang Yuan nodded, picked up the bowl and took a few bites.

"You were doing business before, and you're here to discuss such a big project this time. You're amazing." Jia Jingwen waved her hand: "Waiter, give me another serving of oyster omelette."

Oysters again... Zhang Yuan hurriedly stopped him. If he continued to eat like this, he would have to grow a third leg.

"There's nothing I can do. My starting point is low and the conditions are not good. I can only work harder."

"Yeah." These words seemed to touch her heartstrings. She, who was always lively, became quiet for a rare moment.

After dinner, the vehicle arranged by Alyssa Chia arrived.

This matter has to be arranged by a local boss like her, and it is extremely efficient.

Daewoo, the developer of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", is located in New Taipei City, not far from Taipei City, only about half an hour's drive away.

I got off the car steadily, entered a not-too-tall office building, and found the office of Daewoo Information.

"Hello, my name is Zhang Yuan, and I have made an appointment in advance."

"Wait a minute." When the receptionist heard his mainland accent, she first twisted her mouth with disdain.

But then she raised her head and saw his appearance, and her expression changed in an instant, becoming immediately much more enthusiastic.

When you go out, you still have to rely on your face.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang!" Soon, a middle-aged man walked into the conference room and greeted Zhang Yuan who was leisurely drinking tea.

"Hello, Mr. Wu."

The visitor was Wu Liangcai, the boss of Daewoo Information.

After exchanging pleasantries, the two began to get down to business.

"In the previous phone call, you said that you were very interested in our company's game film and television adaptation rights. Is that correct?"

"Yes, I like your company's games very much, especially the Xuan-Yuan Sword series!"

Zhang Yuan's target was "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", but what he mentioned at this time was another signature work of Dahua, "Xuan-Yuan Sword".

As for why he did this, it all started with the internal strife within Dahua Information...
