Jiangbei finally knew where Li Youqing's confidence came from.
"Beibei, I have no choice but to use my grandson to force the old man to submit. If I object to this matter, she will postpone her plan to have a child."
In a pavilion in the Central Park of Wutongshan Villa District, Li Qiangguo explained helplessly.
"So you are trying to get Youyou back into the entertainment industry?" Jiang Bei asked with a frown.
The plan that I had been working on for several years was about to succeed, but my father-in-law was the first to back down, which is really hard to accept.
"Of course not. Just because I can't let Youyou return to the entertainment industry, I can't object to this matter. I have to let her give birth to the child first." Li Qiang said earnestly: "Only when the child is born can we truly
I want to restrain her and stop her from entering the entertainment industry, do you understand?"
Jiangbei responded with silence.
Seeing this, Li Qiangguo patted his shoulder and said: "Actually, the problem is not big, Xiaoyou just wants to train you to help her return to the entertainment industry better. But as long as you don't perform so well,
Or just offend some big forces and ban you directly, isn’t that enough?”
"So in the end, the burden was placed on me again." Jiang Bei sighed and said.
Li Qiangguo rubbed his hands in embarrassment, and said with an awkward smile: "This capable person has a lot of work to do. And don't worry, dad will also help you complete this task."
"What if it fails in the end?" Jiang Bei thought for a while and asked.
Whether this matter can be accomplished or not is a matter of debate. He must first think of the worst outcome.
"No, dad absolutely believes in you."
...
Li Qiangguo left the matter to Jiangbei ruthlessly, and went home to dream about holding his grandson every day. Li Youqing said that the two elders had a quarrel over whether to hold a grandson or a granddaughter.
Obviously, Li Qiangguo, once one of the top three anti-fans, has been captured by his unborn grandson and has lost his original intention and determination.
This kind of person is not worthy of becoming one of the biggest black fans.
So Jiang Bei is wondering whether to let Liang Liang kick Li Qiangguo out of the group chat.
Of course, this idea can only be thought about, and he would definitely not dare to do it.
Just as he was thinking about it, Li Youqing came back from outside with some brand new books in his arms.
"Beibei, look, I bought you some theoretical books on directing. You can read more when you have nothing to do recently."
Theory books on directing?
The books that were pushed over included "Introduction to Film Studies", "Film and Method", "Film and Television Typology", "Basics of Writing for Television Screenwriters", and "Basic Knowledge of Lens Language". There were so many books that it was confusing to see them.
"I'm past the age of studying." Jiang Bei twitched his lips and declined politely.
"How come? As the saying goes, you have to live and learn. How old are you? And if you want to become a great director, you must pass these theoretical knowledge." Li Youqing replied while taking off his hat and scarf.
Jiangbei was speechless when he heard this.
When did he want to become a great director?
It was obviously forced on you.
It's just that you can't say this to avoid causing conflicts between husband and wife.
Since there is no way to refute, we can only accept these books. As for whether to read them or not, that's a matter of opinion.
Thinking of this, Jiang Bei picked up these books and prepared to put them in the study room and lay them out to fill the not very substantial bookshelf.
"Beibei, you have to hurry up and read these books. I'm going to let you direct and shoot a small-budget film and television drama next spring to try out." Li Youqing's voice came from the living room.
Oops!
So casually, let an ordinary person direct a film and television drama?
Even if the cost is small, no one is willing to invest, right?
"Who invests?" Jiangbei couldn't help but ask.
"We invest in ourselves so that we won't cheat others if we lose money." Li Youqing said. It was obvious that Xiao Nizi had already made careful plans.
"What about the early preparations, actors, scripts, post-production promotion, and distribution?"
Making a film and television drama is not as easy as imagined. For example, if the original "The Camera Don't Stop" hadn't happened to be directed by Hai Dapang, and benefited from the publicity of the actress Sui Xi, what would have been the final result?
There are two more things to say.
"Of course you will write the script yourself, and the preparation, casting, and post-production promotion and distribution will be handed over to Yihe Film and Television Entertainment." Li Youqing walked into the study with his hands behind his back as he spoke, with a look of pride on his face: "
Beibei, if you don't believe it, I got a big deal."
"What's so cheap?" At this time, Jiang Bei's eyes were full of doubts.
Xiao Nizi quietly leaned into his ear and whispered in a low voice: "I purchased 95% of the shares of Yihe Film and Television Entertainment. From now on, we will have our own film and television entertainment company.
"
"Pa~!"
The book slipped from Jiang Bei's hand and fell to the floor with a dull sound.
"Isn't it a surprise?" Li Youqing saw the shocked look on his face and thought he was shocked by the good news. He stood on tiptoes and said proudly: "This is not a surprise. The real surprise is that the annual revenue exceeds ten
Yihe Film and Television Entertainment Company, which owns two of the most popular variety shows, was actually acquired by me for 10 million! If I hadn't had the contract in hand, I would have thought I was dreaming."
At some point, Li Youqing took out his hands that were behind his back, still holding a stack of bound contracts.
"Here!"
The contract was handed over to Jiang Bei.
Jiang Bei silently took it, opened it and looked at it, then fell into silence for a long time.
This is an equity transfer contract. Li Shushuang of Yihe Film and Television Entertainment sold 95% of the company's shares to Li Youqing for 10 million.
In other words, from the moment the contract was signed, Yihe Film and Television Entertainment changed ownership and became an industry owned by Li Youqing.
Um.
very good.
Going round and round.
Finally it's back to square one.
Li Shushu is so stupid.
What is going on in your mind?
"You seem unhappy? Do you think it's too expensive?" Seeing his silence, Li Youqing tilted his head and asked in confusion.
"No...it just feels a bit unrealistic. After all, Yihe Film and Television Entertainment's current market value is several billions." Jiang Bei reluctantly smiled, slowly put the contract on the desk, and unconsciously rubbed his temples.
Hearing this, Li Youqing deeply agreed, nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes! I thought it was a lie at first. But it wasn't until Manager Li signed the contract with me that I realized that it was all true."
"Why did he sell the shares to you?" Jiang Bei asked, touching his chin.
The most puzzling part of the whole incident is here. Why did Li Shushu give up his entire stake in Yihe Film and Television Entertainment?
In fact, let alone him, even Li Youqing, who signed the contract in a daze, didn't understand. He shook his head and replied: "Actually, I don't know the real reason. Manager Li only said that these should be mine. He
It’s just that the property is returned to its original owner.”
At this point, Xiao Nizi suddenly stared into his eyes and asked, "Tell me! Does this company have anything to do with you?"
After hearing this, Jiang Bei's heartbeat quickened, but his face remained calm, and he replied: "I think that way, I can earn a reputation for secretly helping my wife."
"That's true." Li Youqing pouted and nodded, then gave up thinking about the matter and said, "Whatever, the contract has been signed anyway, even if Manager Li wants to renege on it, he can't."
Oh.
He probably can't even think about going back on his word.
Because he is going home to farm soon!
...
Li Shusu's operation brought another turning point to the entire plan.
After owning 95% of the shares of Yihe Film and Television Entertainment, Li Youqing became more confident in cultivating Jiangbei to become a great director. In addition to forcing him to learn director-related knowledge every day, he also used the resources of Yihe Film and Television Entertainment to guide him.
He entered the filming and recording location of "The Voice of China Season 3" and the "Produce 202" variety show, allowing him to learn practical concepts from the director team.
Jiangbei couldn't object because he was also threatened by Li Youqing.
"Beibei, do you want a child?"
"think."
"If you want, just listen to me."
"But you are forcing me to do something I don't like."
"Say this. There is no compulsion between husband and wife. We must know how to accommodate each other and understand each other."
"..."
Faced with this fallacy, Jiang Bei was still unable to refute, and his father-in-law Li Qiangguo repeatedly emphasized that his children must be the first priority. He could only endure the humiliation and choose to agree to Li Youqing, and obediently began to learn director-related knowledge.
In fact, where does he need to learn this knowledge? But he cannot directly tell his wife that his theoretical knowledge and practical knowledge are already very qualified, so the learning process becomes extremely difficult.
"It has to be tough! Who told my sister-in-law to have the king card now? Unless she plays a hand of four, two, and two kings, it won't help even if you, brother, have four aces."
The gambling king of Anseong, who had been struggling in school for a while, came back and learned the news, looking like he was watching a show, shaking his head and saying.
"What happens after you get through this? Do I really want to help your sister-in-law make a movie?" Jiang Bei said helplessly, holding his forehead.
It's okay to agree to learn directing knowledge.
The key issue is still his future career as a director. In this life, he has never thought about returning to the entertainment industry as a director, otherwise he would not have chosen to open a farmhouse after traveling through time.
"Why not? As long as you make a few bad movies, brother, won't it be enough?" Although Liangliang knew her brother well, she couldn't understand that he had been born in two lifetimes, so she continued to put forward her own suggestions.
"You want me to make a bad movie?" Jiang Bei hesitated and said awkwardly: "Liangliang, your brother is a talented person..."
"Every time I gamble, I am confident that I will win money, but the results are always so unsatisfactory."
