#559 - Chapter 559: Your grandfather? No one can help you! Sun Yue arrives, the gangster father-in-l
Chen Hao's gaze swept across the assembled celebrities.
In his previous life.
In the year 2000, celebrity salaries weren't high, but later they became ridiculously high.
Some celebrities weren't qualified to be among the world's top tier, yet their salaries dwarfed those of global superstars.
Some foreign stars even said that they would come to China when they needed money.
This was extremely unreasonable!
In this life.
Chen Hao would not only implement strict regulations on salaries at Han Tang Media but also promote them throughout the entire entertainment industry.
You don't comply?
Then don't even think about making it in the Chinese entertainment industry!
Of course, he wouldn't be like Hong Kong or South Korea, frantically exploiting artists for their blood—he never expected to make money from Han Tang Media from the start.
Ultimately, everything should be done in moderation.
"With Chairman Chen's word, working for free is no problem!"
"The salary doesn't matter, the main thing is to be able to collaborate with Director Zhang."
Many celebrities expressed their stances.
From Director Zhang and Liu Ci Xin, they could tell that the script was top-notch. Chen Hao also claimed to be using new technologies and investing as much as 1 billion.
Everyone understood that these films would not only be big productions but also pioneer the field of cinema.
How could they not seize this opportunity?
Chen Hao nodded and looked at Liu Ci Xin: "Mr. Liu, how about 10 million for the copyrights to your two works?"
Huh?!
Liu Ci Xin's eyes widened.
In this day and age…
Selling movie copyrights for 10 million could be called astronomical!
"If you have no objections, then it's settled?"
Chen Hao then said: "Director Zhang, firstly, based on the script types, find more directors to participate and be responsible for filming different scripts. Secondly, settle the casting and location scouting first—while I take care of the hardware during this time."
He wanted to create the most advanced hardware equipment!
Cameras.
Monitors.
Lighting equipment.
Sound recording equipment.
Oh right!
And also more advanced 3D cameras!
The paper technology existed, and the most difficult optical lenses and chips had already been successfully developed.
The research and development wouldn't take too long.
Anyway, after the research and development, they could also be sold as products.
Just as he stepped out the door, Xiang Yan whispered a reminder: "There's a female celebrity following us!"
Chen Hao was taken aback.
Impossible, right?
The list he gave Xiao Ling consisted of actors with both good character and acting skills in his memories from his previous life.
How could someone try to go through the back door?
"Chairman Chen!"
A girl ran over.
Chen Hao was stunned.
How old was this girl? She looked less than 20 years old.
The list he gave Xiao Ling didn't include the girl in front of him, and even… perhaps because she was too young and hadn't fully matured, she didn't match any of the celebrities in his previous life's memories at all.
That's right!
He couldn't recognize who she was.
There were too many celebrities present earlier, and he mainly talked to Director Zhang and Liu Ci Xin, so he couldn't have paid attention to everyone.
"You… is there something you need?" he asked.
"Chairman Chen, hello, my grandfather is called…"
Damn!
As soon as Chen Hao heard the voice and way of speaking, he immediately matched it with his memories from his previous life.
It was her?
"What do you want from me?" Chen Hao interrupted directly.
"It's because of my grandfather…"
"Xiao Ling!"
Chen Hao was too lazy to pay attention to her and went straight back to the conference room: "Why is someone who's not on the list here?!"
He was angry.
Why add other people privately?
"Chairman Chen, I…"
Seeing that he was unhappy, Xiao Ling quickly lowered her voice and explained: "She's from the Shanghai Theatre Academy. I don't know where she heard that our company was hiring actors, and then… the person who recommended her has a certain background."
She knew that Chen Hao was very busy and didn't want to trouble the boss with everything.
But if she offended someone with a background…
The boss could definitely solve it, but wouldn't that be troubling him?
"You can leave," Chen Hao glanced at the girl.
"Chairman Chen!"
The girl said anxiously: "My grandfather…"
"Without your grandfather, you wouldn't be able to speak?"
Chen Hao was extremely annoyed with her, took out his phone, and dialed a number: "Help me check who that someone's grandfather is…"
He had respect for the predecessors.
But if someone used the predecessors to swagger around…
Don't blame him for being impolite!
The girl was dumbfounded.
She stared blankly at Chen Hao and suddenly said angrily: "Do you know who my grandfather is…"
"It doesn't matter if your grandfather is the King of Heaven!" Chen Hao shouted coldly.
The scene was silent.
Director Zhang, Liu Ci Xin, and a group of actors all looked at the girl with strange expressions.
Without needing to inquire privately, she had told everyone about her grandfather's great achievements as soon as she arrived.
But everyone was also clear that Chairman Chen, as the nation's white glove, even if it was just superficially creating a god, his status was definitely extremely high.
How stupid was she to challenge Chairman Chen in public?
"I've remembered your words…"
Suddenly!
Before she could finish speaking, her phone rang.
Her eyes lit up when she saw the number.
She glared at Chen Hao demonstratively, then answered the phone in front of everyone, turning on the speakerphone and speaking in a particularly loud voice: "Grandpa…"
"Get back here!"
From the phone.
An old voice roared in uncontrollable anger: "You dead girl! Withdraw from school immediately and get back to Suzhou! In the future, you're not allowed to enter the entertainment industry. If you dare to use my name again, I'll break your dog legs!"
"Grandpa…" The girl was dumbfounded.
"Do you want me to lose my reputation in my old age?!" The voice was full of anger.
"…"
The girl was completely stunned on the spot.
Withdraw from school?
Go back?
Not allowed to enter the entertainment industry again?
She stared blankly at the people around her, and found that everyone was looking at her as if she were a joke.
At this moment.
She finally realized that her grandfather wasn't omnipotent.
At the same time.
Her path in the entertainment industry was completely blocked, with no more opportunities!
…
General Wang had been very busy these days.
Preparations for various new projects were underway, and the personnel were almost all assembled, waiting for him to raise the equipment.
In contrast, Chen Hao…
Before all the equipment arrived, he couldn't conduct comprehensive research and development, and it was useless to go to the research center.
He simply let those researchers take the opportunity to rest for a few days before continuing.
As for himself?
Just right!
He could handle trivial matters.
For example, entering the film and television industry.
After leaving Han Tang Media in the morning, he went to the subsidiaries and joint ventures to take a look. As for the subsidiaries not located locally, he also called to understand the situation.
Once all the equipment was in place, a new round of research and development would be launched, and he wouldn't have time to pay attention to them then.
He had been busy this way.
Before he knew it, he was busy until dark.
Just as he was about to return to school, a phone call came in: "Brother Hao…"
"Have you arrived?" Chen Hao asked with a smile.
"The plane just landed… Where are you?"
"I've sent someone over."
Chen Hao lowered his voice: "Let your father-in-law answer the phone."
Huh?!
Sun Yue was at a loss.
When did Brother Hao get to know his father-in-law?
After a moment.
Chen Hao heard a strange voice speaking in Spanish: "You are… that little bastard's friend? He's ruined me!"
"Mr. Gustavo, it's a pleasure to meet you," Chen Hao said with a smile.
"You… know me?"
"There will be two cars in a moment. Sun Yue and Mia will take one car to the city, and the other will take you to another place."
"What do you mean? You… what do you want to do?!"
"What's wrong?"
Chen Hao grinned: "The head of Chile's largest mafia doesn't even have this much courage? Besides, if I wanted to do something to you… this isn't Chile, do you have the ability to resist?"
