Volume 8 Final Chapter Chapter 1192 I don't owe you, you owe me
Not long after Sister Chan left, Fan Qianye called Nan Yi.
"Fan Chengzhang is ill. He has diabetes and paranoia."
"Diabetes can be serious or minor, please be more specific."
"Pay attention to your diet, you won't die anytime soon."
"Haha, interesting. Is he in big trouble?"
"Fan Chengzhang started his business with a Zhangshi coal washing plant ten years ago. Two years later, he bought the marginal coal area of Shenfu Coal Industry at a suitable price. He mined for less than three years. He divided the marginal coal area into several pieces and subcontracted them to other coal bosses. He collected management fees of over one million yuan every year.
This model brought Fan Chengzhang sweet rewards. He later bought several marginal coal areas and subcontracted them out. Later, he stepped into the real estate industry and developed several residential areas in Shenfu and Tuocheng City above it.
In 2004, Zhangshi Coal Washing was reorganized into Zhangshi Group, and its subsidiary Zhangshi Real Estate entered the ancient city. He was very lucky, and he found Tang Dynasty tombs in the first three construction sites he worked on..."
"Wait a minute." Nan Yi interrupted Fan Qianye, "There are a few people working on the construction site who report when they find an ancient tomb. They just secretly fill it with mortar and bury it. Fan Chengzhang didn't do that?"
"I'm not sure yet, but I heard that Fan Chengzhang had offended a rival in the ancient city who was also in the real estate business. He was a local tyrant, so he might have been tricked."
“Oh, the three construction sites are being developed at the same time?”
"yes."
Nan Yi thought for a while and asked, "How much assets does Fan Chengzhang have?"
"The rumor out there is five billion."
“Is it reliable?”
"On average, one coal mine in a marginal coal area costs about 40 million yuan. Fan Chengzhang keeps acquiring mines, and the funds he needs are astronomical, which he cannot afford. But he has many friends in Tuocheng, who are usually generous and have a good reputation."
Nan Yi laughed, "What's the big idea?"
Fan Qianye: "I heard about an incident that happened last year. One of Fan Chengzhang's partners usually drove a Santana 2000. Fan Chengzhang thought that such a car was not worthy of the other party's status, so he directly gave him a Range Rover Sport. This incident is known to everyone in Shenfu."
"Hahaha, let me guess. Fan Chengzhang is just a hollow carrot, good-looking but useless. Have you figured out his debt situation?"
Fan Qianye: "We haven't investigated this far yet."
"Well, what about Fan Lihui? Is he working under Fan Chengzhang?"
Fan Qianye: "No, he went it alone and opened a Shenfeng Investment Company in Shanghai."
“Venture capital?”
Fan Qianye: "Stock trading."
"Uh... Playboy?"
Fan Qianye: "I don't know. I haven't heard many rumors about him in the Divine Palace. It seems that he has been studying in the ancient city since he was a child."
"Where is Fan Chengzhang's wife? Is there any need to investigate?"
Fan Qianye: "It shouldn't be necessary. She opened a shop that combines chess, cards and SPA. She plays cards in her shop every day. I heard a lot of rumors about her. She likes to play mahjong and has a bad temper. She will curse at others when they call the shots, and will somersault on the ground when she calls the shots herself."
"Somersault?" Nan Yile said, "That goes without saying. This woman must like to wear red clothes, and her pants are probably red too."
Fan Qianye: "There is such a rumor."
Nan Yi suppressed his smile and asked, "What does her father do?"
"The deputy director of Shenfu Coal Industry before its restructuring died five years ago and left only a daughter." Fan Qianye understood what Nan Yi wanted to ask and answered directly and clearly.
"What kind of result do you want?"
"My dear Uncle Nan, shouldn't it be you who wants a certain result?" Fan Qianye sneered.
"All I want is simple, don't let Anko get into trouble."
Fan Qianye: "How enviable! My sister has such a good godfather."
Nan Yi switched the phone to the other side and said, "I've said before, I don't owe you anything. I helped your mother at first because of Xu Feiyang. Later, Hong Dou and I fell in love with each other, so I adopted her as my goddaughter and treated her like my own daughter.
You are too naughty. I am still studying hard, very busy and tired, and I don't want another naughty monkey to bother me. In 1977, you had plenty of oil and water, meat for every meal, and snacks as you wish. You caused trouble when you were full, and you ruined the harmonious relationship between neighbors.
Then, your two younger sisters were born. What did you do? What did you do when you went to Melbourne?
I've been wiping your ass all the way...
Forget it, I won’t mention my achievements. Today’s results are yesterday’s causes. You are in your thirties now, so be more mature and rational. You are not the leading man in the world, and not everyone has to revolve around you. You should be content.”
"You should have said these words to me more than 20 years ago."
"You think too highly of yourself. If I told you before you were twenty, you might not listen. Girls mature earlier than boys. Hongdou was sensible at the age of five, and had complete worldviews at the age of ten."
Fan Qianye was frowning, he exhaled and calmed down, "Okay, Uncle Nan, I know you don't owe me anything, but I owe you a lot, can you please tell me back to Fan Chengzhang?"
"I've already said what I want. It's up to you to decide how far you want to go. Please state again that it is reasonable and legal. Go talk to Yan Zhenhua. If you don't need him, let him go back to the capital."
"OK. "
After ending the call, Nan Yi saw that it was still early, so he asked Miao Xiaolan to drive to Master Film Studio.
The makeshift team has been set up, with three artists under its banner: Zhao Qing'er, Si Chun, and Chen Wenxi. Zhao Qing'er is not in a hurry, as she still has some time to practice. Chen Wenxi is defined by Nan Yi as a hobbyist, and will be sent home after two years of playing. At present, only Si Chun is anxious to push her to the top, so that she can say hello to people in the circle: "Master Film is here."
However, it was obvious that things would not develop as Nan Yi had imagined. Chen Wenxi was a worrying person. When he saw Nan Yi in the office, he came up to him and called him Grandpa Nan. After that, he had no intention of leaving. Even when Nan Yi entered Xie Yongchuan's office, she did not avoid him.
She didn't avoid it, and Nan Yi and Xie Yongchuan didn't delay talking about business. The sitcom project tentatively named "Fortune Apartment" has been launched, and Xie Yongchuan is looking for a screenwriter to write the script. The basic idea is very simple, to look through all the sitcoms at home and abroad, pay tribute to each one a little, and integrate the Internet's memes to make a hodgepodge version of the tribute.
As for a unit drama, there is no need for any plot. It only needs to be funny and have one joke after another. In addition, as long as the actors and actresses meet the aesthetic standards of the target audience, it is basically impossible for this drama to fail and high ratings can be achieved.
Don't listen to many people who always say that this meme can be found on the Internet and that meme is familiar to them. The Internet is so big that, except for some hot memes, most of the memes have a relatively fixed audience. There is a certain deviation in the acceptance range between each group. Although the large-scale fusion of memes is easy to be criticized, it will definitely make you happy when you watch it.
You forget everything after watching it, you don't know what the plot is about, and there are even people who list the origins of the memes afterwards, criticizing "God of Wealth Apartment" for being a fusion of memes. All kinds of negative comments have appeared, but these are not a big deal. As long as there is no solid evidence of plagiarism, black is also red, and it will have a positive effect on ratings.
What’s more, you don’t have to wait for others to release some so-called black material. You can post it yourself first and then guide the topic in a positive direction.
After chatting with Xie Yongchuan about the plot structure for a while and pondering the pros and cons, Nan Yi pulled Chen Wenxi outside, scolded her for not knowing the rules, and then gave her a sweet treat - she would be assigned an important role in "God of Wealth Apartment", either the first or second female lead.
In the conversation between Nan Yi and Xie Yongchuan just now, neither of them mentioned the biggest negative impact of sitcoms on actors. If "God of Wealth Apartment" becomes a hit, the actors who participate in it will easily be trapped in the positioning of the roles and unable to get out of it, which will be very detrimental to their future development.
If an actor cannot get into the role and interpret it to perfection, he or she will definitely need to be replaced. Generally speaking, "God of Wealth Apartment" will look for young actors who have just debuted and have not yet made a name for themselves, giving them the opportunity to play important roles. It is their duty to perform well. What happens later is their own business.
Without the first step, how can you talk about the future? Become famous first, and then make plans for the future.
After scolding Chen Wenxi, Nan Yi returned to Xie Yongchuan's office, and the two continued to discuss the development positioning of their master's film company.
After some discussion, the two agreed that they did not intend to pay a high price to sign a contract with a popular actor. They only wanted to select young newcomers with potential, train them slowly, and promote them to fame on their own. They also wanted to poach a few unappreciated 18th-tier actors from other companies.
With the attitude of being responsible to the actors, he takes it step by step. No matter how big the bowl of Master Film can be, he will add as much rice as possible to it. Without resources, it will be useless to sign more people back. Only hideous dogs and bitches can do such shameless things as earning liquidated damages. Nan Yi has always regarded himself as a handsome guy.
