Director, please respect yourself

Basketball courtside

Sitting on the floor, the number of people bragging just now increased from two to three.

Of course, this is not very accurate. To be precise, it was two people bragging and one person listening. Zhou Xingxing was still so taciturn.

In order to take care of him, Yang Hao, who originally spoke fluent Mandarin, now chatted with Ma Yun in English.

"Mr. Ma..."

"Um?"

"Master Xing is here, how about you treat me to lunch today?"

"It's necessary!

Sing Yeh is my idol, and his movies often inspire me to start a business. "

"Don't dare to take it, don't take it!"

Only at this time, Zhou Xingxing would smile shyly and wave his hands repeatedly.

"Mr. Ma..."

"Um?"

"I heard that your company is planning to go public in the United States? And it is very likely to become the largest IPO in history?"

"This is not a secret, I can only say that it is being planned now."

"Mr. Ma, if you want to be listed in the United States and want to become the largest IPO in history, the prerequisite is to let Lao Mi see the strength of our Alibaba. At least the transaction volume must be better every year, right?"

"Of course!"

At this time, Ma Yun had a little hope in his eyes. After talking so much just now, I just wanted you to help me plan a marketing plan, and now, you are finally talking about drama.

"Mr. Ma..."

"Um?"

"This year is 2011. Singles' Day, which was hyped by you, is a good day this year. November 11, 2011, this number looks very auspicious!"

"What, Yang Hao, do you have any ideas?"

"have!"

After speaking, Yang Hao remained silent.

Seeing his appearance, Ma Yun smiled. When he was filming the martial arts movie "Xiu Chun Dao" in Taierzhuang, a small town in southern Shandong, this grandson looked like this. If you don't give him enough benefits, he will never tell his idea. .

For example, Tao Piaopiao got his idea by guest-starring in one of his movies.

Thinking of this, Ma Yun seemed to have some realization.

"Yang Hao, don't you ever want me to guest star in your movie again?"

"Haha... Mr. Ma, you are so wise!"

Yang Hao laughed, gave Ma Yun a thumbs up, and glanced at Zhou Xingxing next to him.

Tell me, brother, this opportunity is rare!

Normally, Zhou Xingxing was taciturn, but that didn't mean he wasn't smart. When he saw Yang Hao's ball coming over, he immediately stood up and paced on the basketball court while narrating vividly:

"Mr. Ma, the movie that Director Yang and I are about to shoot is called "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons," and the general story is this.

Demons were rampant during the Tang Dynasty. A small fishing village was plagued by fish demons and hired Taoist priests to eliminate them. The young exorcist Chen Xuanzang came to help but was mistaken for a liar. Fortunately, Miss Duan, a professional bounty exorcist, helped Xuanzang subdue them. The true form of the fish demon.

The two met again in Gaojiazhuang to subdue the pig demon Zhu Ganghye. This time, they failed to eliminate the demon, but Miss Duan fell in love with Xuanzang at first sight..."

The story is very exciting, and Zhou Xingxing's story is full of saliva. As a film director, storytelling is his specialty after all.

And Ma Yun also listened with fascination. When Zhou Xingxing finished telling the story, the man applauded very appropriately.

"Pa bang bang..."

While applauding, Ma Yun looked towards Yang Hao.

"Yang Hao, tell me, which role do you want me to play as a guest star in Master Xing's movie?"

"Sun Wukong!" Yang Hao and Zhou Xingchi said at the same time.

Hearing the name Sun Wukong, Ma Yun almost fell down on the basketball court.

"Master Xing, Yang Hao, we are friends, we can't joke. You two asked me to play Sun Wukong?"

"Yes, I'm not kidding!" Zhou Xingxing was serious when he said this.

"Master Xing, is that the character you starred in in "Westward Journey"... Sun Wukong?"

"Um!"

Facing Ma Yun's question again, Zhou Xingxing nodded heavily.

"Yang Hao, do you mean this too?"

"Yes!"

At this time, Yang Hao gave an affirmative answer. However, after answering Ma Yun's question, Yang Hao immediately asked him a question.

"Mr. Ma, what was your transaction volume on Double 11 last year?"

"936 million yuan."

Ma Yun remembers this number very accurately. In 2009, Alibaba started the Double 11 Tmall Taobao Festival. The transaction volume on that day was 52 million, but by last year, that is, in 10 years, it had grown to 936 million.

This suddenly doubled more than ten times, which is really happy.

At this moment, Ma Yun suddenly saw Yang Hao stretching out three fingers.

"Mr. Ma, 30 billion yuan. If you listen to my idea, if the turnover of this year's Double 11 Tmall Taobao Festival is less than 30 billion yuan, I will give you free work for a year."

"Yang Hao, are you telling the truth?" Ma Yun was sitting on the floor just now, but at this time, Ma Yun suddenly stood up.

I won't let you work for me for free for a year. You just need to shoot a few commercial movies for me, like "4×4" and "Civilization in the Refrigerator" which are still talked about.

"Mr. Ma, when did I lie to you?"

………

Ma Yun went to the villa. Judging from his anxious look, he probably wanted to communicate with the senior management of the company over the phone.

As the chairman of Alibaba's board of directors, he actually wanted to give up his job and go to Hengdian to shoot a movie for three or four months. This matter must be discussed with the company's senior management.

Even Lin'an, where Alibaba's headquarters is located, is very close to Hengdian.

He can't make the decision alone.

At this time, Yang Hao pulled Zhou Xingxing aside, lowered his voice and laughed:

"Master Xing, it's time for us to talk about our affairs?"

"What do we want?" Zhou Xingxing blinked, confused.

"Master Xing, if I guess correctly, this villa should be yours, right?"

"Well…"

Zhou Xingxing was stunned and said, "How do you know?"

"It's just for observation." Yang Hao said casually.

“First, celebrities and wealthy people usually sell their houses in secret, leaving the matter to the intermediary and not making it public.

And as soon as I mentioned that I was looking at a house here in Kadoorie Hill, you immediately mentioned No. 28 Kadoorie Road, which shows that you know that this villa is being sold out.

Second, when I entered the house just now, there was a cigarette butt at the door. I don’t know which housekeeper threw it there.

And when you see it, you pick it up and throw it into the trash can inside the door.

When you frown when you see a cigarette butt, you are dissatisfied with others' lack of hygiene, so you go to the door and throw the cigarette butt into the trash can. This action is extremely skillful. This shows that you know the location of the trash can better than anyone else.

three…"

As soon as Yang Hao finished talking, Zhou Xingxing pushed up his black-rimmed glasses with his hands and pursed his lips with a smile.

"Yes, this house is mine, but it's in my mother's name. Now that real estate is recovering, I want to sell it and convert it into cash.

However, Director Yang, even if you just helped me find the number one candidate for Sun Wukong in my mind, I will not sell this house to you cheaply.

It's 350 million, that's 350 million. Look at this piece of land. It's 1/7 larger than Andy Lau's house opposite. When Andy Lau bought Villa No. 35 in 2009, he spent 200 million Hong Kong dollars.

so…"

Zhou Xingxing is still Zhou Xingxing. If you help me, you are helping me. I owe you a favor, but if you want to take advantage of me with favors, haha, don't even think about it.

In response, Yang Hao smiled and said nothing.

Let's see if Gao Yuanyuan likes it first?

If you like it, you can buy it, because in 2018, there will be a small bull market for real estate on Hong Kong Island.
