Chapter 426 China Film Group's Victory Celebration Banquet
Next came the chairman of the China Manufacturing Association, the vice president of China Education Television, and the vice president of China Publishing Group, one after another, holding wine glasses.
Fu Yibai clinked glasses with them one by one, exchanging few but polite greetings.
The fact that Chenxi Media was the only private shareholder at this celebration banquet dominated by state-owned enterprises is itself a signal.
Yang Shoucheng came over with a wine glass, accompanied by Bai Bin.
Bai Bin wore a silver-gray long dress today, with her long, wavy hair cascading down her back. She walked up to Fu Yibai and gave him a gentle hug.
Yang Shoucheng clinked glasses with him.
"Thanks for 'The White Storm' and 'The Witch 2'."
"Mr. Yang, you're too kind. It's just a matter of reciprocity."
Yang Shoucheng patted Fu Yibai meaningfully.
"Whenever you come to Hong Kong, I'll make sure to arrange everything for you."
"Haha, I have time, I have time."
After Yang Shoucheng led Bai Bin away, Wang Changtian approached with a wine glass in his hand.
Then came Tsai Yinong, and the two chatted about the progress of the sugar figurine's market launch.
Next was Wang Zhongjun.
Wang Zhongjun came to persuade Fu Yibai to continue holding Huayi shares.
In another month, the shares held by Fu Yibai will be released from lock-up.
He holds a considerable number of shares, and if he were to sell them all, it would have a significant impact on Huayi's stock market.
Wang Zhongjun spoke earnestly, analyzing the market prospects in an attempt to dissuade Fu Yibai from reducing his holdings.
Fu Yibai listened with a smile, nodding occasionally, but did not make any clear promises.
He knew in his heart that while Huayi had potential for the future, it would never be as glorious as it had been in his previous life.
This generation of Dawn has long dominated the film and television industry, quietly changing the market landscape.
Li Ming from Enlight Media and Li Shaohong from Rongxinda also came over to exchange pleasantries, which Fu Yibai dealt with one by one.
Tonight, everyone who walks in with a glass of wine has their own agenda, and he happens to be the unavoidable figurehead in their minds.
Jiang Wen walked over with a wine glass in his hand, sat down next to Fu Yibai, and placed the wine glass heavily on the table.
"Brother, I just finished editing the final cut of 'Let the Bullets Fly'."
Are you coming to the internal screening early next month?
"When?"
"October 8th, the post-production base in Huairou."
This film took four months to edit; every cut felt like it was tearing my flesh.
It doesn't matter whether others come or not, you have to come.
"Okay, I'll come over then."
Jiang Wen grinned, stood up, patted Fu Yibai on the shoulder, and strode away.
The actors began to come over one after another to offer toasts.
Li Binbin walked at the front.
She wore a dark green strapless dress, her eyes sparkling, exuding a unique charm characteristic of mature female stars.
She walked up to Fu Yibai, picked up her wine glass, and her fingertips inadvertently touched the back of his hand.
"Director Fu, congratulations!"
Fu Yibai clinked glasses with her.
"Director Fu probably doesn't have any plans for tonight, right?"
Li Binbin's voice was very low, and only two people could hear it.
Fu Yibai looked Li Binbin up and down a few times, lingering for two seconds on her full, fair chest.
"No, are you making arrangements for me tonight?"
Li Binbin smiled and whispered in Fu Yibai's ear, "I recently bought a new villa in the east, and no one has been there yet. I'll take you to see it after the party."
"Then I shall respectfully comply."
Next up are several top-tier actors including Chen Kun, Zhou Xun, Zhao Wei, and Huang Xiaoming.
Huang Xiaoming was the last to arrive.
Has filming wrapped on "American Dreams in China"?
"No.
Director Chen gave the entire crew a break.
After saying that, Huang Xiaoming pointed to the distance, where director Chen Kexin had also been invited to attend the party.
"Have you thought about the affiliation arrangement?"
"I've thought it through. Since President Fu values me so much, of course I have to seize this opportunity."
I've already had a meeting with the team, and once I finish filming, we can proceed with the affiliation process.
After chatting for a while, Huang Xiaoming turned and left.
Afterwards, Deng Chao also came over with a grin, but was chased away by Fu Yibai.
After Deng Chao left, Huang Bo and the other two also came over together.
After congratulating the three of them, Fu Yibai also sent them away.
The celebration banquet ended at 10 p.m.
Han Shanping had drunk quite a bit and was helped into the car by his assistant.
A black Mercedes van was parked at the entrance, the door open, and Li Binbin, sitting in the back seat, waved to him.
"Get in the car, Director Fu."
Fu Yibai bent down and got into the car.
The car door closed, shutting out the lingering noise at the hotel entrance.
Li Binbin leaned closer, her arm naturally resting on his arm, the scent of perfume on her fingers filling the enclosed car.
The car drove into Beijing late at night and finally stopped in front of a newly built detached villa outside the East Fourth Ring Road.
Fu Yibai followed Li Binbin through the door.
The villa is decorated in a simple modern style. The living room has a double-height ceiling, and the crystal chandelier illuminates the entire space brightly and transparently.
"Director Fu, please make yourself at home."
Li Binbin kicked off her high heels, stepped barefoot onto the white shaggy carpet, walked to the wine cabinet, and took out an opened bottle of red wine and two glasses.
"This was brought back from France by someone I asked. Try it."
She poured two glasses and handed one to Fu Yibai.
The two sat down on the sofa and chatted casually.
