New Age Artists

Chapter 144: The Strong Man Chen Gandi! Wedding Wine! (23)

Chen Jinfei spent a large sum of money to hold a coming-of-age ceremony for his goddaughter, Liu Yifei, when she turned 18.

Shen Santong heard some rumors and invited bigwigs from the cultural circle and many big names in the entertainment industry.

We should look at Chen Jinfei in the present moment.

In the seventy years of development of the Republic, we have completed a journey that took the great powers four to five hundred years since the Age of Exploration.

Especially after the millennium, the five to ten years were simply a different era.

Shen Santong was deeply touched by this.

In 05, a high-definition color TV, slightly larger in size, from a brand like Sony, cost tens of thousands of yuan.

A dozen years later, TVs with better quality and more features will cost only one-tenth of what they do now.

In 05, a blender cost several thousand yuan.

In the future, you won’t have to pursue brand names, you can buy one for three or four hundred yuan and it will be just as useful.

There is even cross-generational development.

Vacuum cleaners are not yet popular for household use, but sweeping robots have entered many households.

In 05, many foreign-owned cars were priced at the same as a house, or even higher.

In 24, the Qin L, which uses the most advanced hybrid system and has a range of kilometers, costs less than yuan.

The entire series has various safety warnings as standard, even rear seat belt reminders. The top-of-the-line version even has AEB and front and rear collision warnings, as well as ICC intelligent navigation.

China's development is advancing in multiple fields, and Shen Santong can be roughly divided into three major areas.

Just a rough division.

Infrastructure, Internet, and manufacturing.

Chen Jinfei is a strong player in the infrastructure industry, but he will soon be eliminated.

Personnel changes are only one aspect, the main problem is that we cannot keep up with version updates.

After 08, the requirements for infrastructure, or real estate-related projects, are not as simple as developing one or two real estate projects.

Instead, it should be a project that can drive urban development, preferably one that can be quickly popularized nationwide.

Wanda and Hengda will be the strong ones in the next version.

Of course, Wanda and Hengda also lost their versions in later generations.

The future belongs to companies that have independent brands, leading technologies, can provide hundreds of thousands or even millions of high-level R&D jobs, and whose entire upstream and downstream industrial chains can drive the creation of tens of millions of jobs.

Companies like Apple and other joint ventures make a lot of money in mainland China, but they don't provide R&D jobs, or even downstream employment, and they still have to drop versions.

Shen Santong knew very well that, judging from later generations, Chen Jinfei was not very powerful.

The version in his field has been updated twice.

Those who compete for his ecological niche will be eliminated.

It is conceivable that Chen Jinfei has long had no influence in the industry.

The money is still there, but the influence is gone.

But in 05, Chen Jinfei was still a strong player.

He was one of the top ten richest private entrepreneurs in China in 2000.

As for Liu Yifei, Shen Santong can only say that she is the tears of the times.

Shen Santong understood what was going on.

As I said, many things cannot be viewed from the perspective of future generations.

What later generations saw was that Chen Jinfei was nothing. To put it bluntly, when Yang Mi was making the most money, her cash flow was more than Chen Jinfei's.

The fine that Fan Bingbing paid directly may not be paid by Chen Jinfei.

But it was different a dozen years ago.

It is said that Shen Santong worked in engineering in his previous life, and I heard from the old people.

In the 8090s and s, some large-scale infrastructure projects used foreign machinery and required employees from foreign companies to operate them.

There were engineers' family members who threw themselves on foreign men in their fifties or sixties.

Who would have thought that a college teacher doesn't need to curry favor with others or take crooked paths.

Normal work is just doing what you should do according to the normal stage of life.

Twenty or thirty years later, you will have several houses and may be re-employed after retirement. If you are not re-employed, you can still receive a good pension.

You can buy all kinds of high-tech products and enjoy all kinds of fruits and meat. The only thing you have to worry about is the three highs.

Traveling around the country is fun.

As long as it is not abusive, insulting, or particularly luxurious, you can basically consume it.

Life was very comfortable, and in terms of social status, it was no worse than that of the so-called rich. But the premise was to hold on, to hold on when wages could not be paid and everyone was pessimistic.

Shen Santong remembered Zhuo Wei saying that Liu Yifei was a girl who deserved sympathy and he hoped she would be happy no matter what she did.

Shen Santong probably has the same attitude.

Zhuo Wei is a person who is used to the ups and downs of the entertainment industry. He has seen being hacked, exposed online, and all kinds of explicit and implicit rules.

The entertainment industry has been attacked a lot, and various female stars have been slandered.

Zhou Jie was also attacked in the same way, but he was attacked even more severely. Lin Jingru spread rumors about him, and his career suffered a severe blow.

What made him say such a thing is not as simple as spreading all kinds of outrageous rumors.

Liu Yifei’s problem is her mother.

Of course, Liu Yifei herself, who grew up in that kind of environment, must be different from Chinese people who grew up in a normal family.

Shen Santong asked his assistant to put away the invitation. He didn't have time to go because he had to promote the movie. "Prepare a gift. One or two thousand yuan will do."

In 05, a gift worth one or two thousand yuan was considered quite expensive.

We are not very familiar with each other, so I am giving you a gift as a courtesy.

We’ll talk about it if there’s an opportunity for cooperation in the future.

Movies are the priority!

8 month 12 day.

Friday.

The celebration party for "Happy Birthday" is also a celebration party for breaking the record in the history of domestic films.

Bang!
Pull the fireworks.

Serious fireworks.

Shen Santong picked up the hammer and smashed the 250000000 ice sculpture.

Then raise a toast: "Cheers!!"

Li Bingbing's face flushed, he raised his wine glass, and in excitement he bent his hand, wanting to have a drink with the other.

Drip!

Tang Yan fell behind the crowd, her pupils suddenly shrank, and the bitch detection radar beeped.

The next moment, a smile appeared.

Shen Santong raised his arm first and touched elbows with Li Bingbing to stop the other party's actions. He signaled with his eyes not to make trouble: play in private, be careful in public.

Li Bingbing hit him coquettishly, then hugged his arm without any hesitation in front of the reporters.

No one seems to care much.

Shen Santong couldn't push it away either.

At this time, Dahua really knew how to have fun and dared to have fun, and it was also because Shen Santong was young and talented.

If it were an older man, such a photo would become a dark history in future generations.

After the celebration party, the reporters were given various poses for photos, and then the interviews began.

Shen Santong's views are not welcomed by some media, but he rarely accepts interviews and reporters cherish the opportunity.

A female reporter asked, "Director Shen, Happy Birthday broke the box office record of Hero. What do you think?"

Shen Santong: "I am just an ordinary director born in the 80s. Like many people born in the 80s, I do what I like. I can achieve this result mainly because of the support of the audience. We audiences support our domestic films and local directors."

"It shows that if we make movies that the audience likes and serve the audience well, the audience will never let us filmmakers down. As a member of the local film industry, I am very proud to have achieved such results."

Hearing this, the reporter rolled his eyes, post-80s, domestic films, local directors.

They have all memorized it, why do they keep repeating it?

A reporter asked a pointed question: "Director Shen, I saw the promotional poster of "Happy Birthday". Are you going to challenge the box office record of "Titanic"? Who gave you the courage?"

The writing style of this book has been determined, it is realistic.

This book’s attitude towards Liu Yifei is the same as that in the text, and we hope she will be happy.

Liu Yifei is in her thirties and she has made her own choice.

Of course, it is understandable what choice she made based on her experience.

Respect and blessing.

As the plot develops, there will definitely be intersections. She is someone Xiaohua cannot avoid before she grows up.

For her, I will neither praise her nor criticize her.
