Chapter 130 Best Supporting Actor at Venice ~
In late August, good news came from the sports world—at the Stuttgart World Championships, the "Ma's Army" swept the gold medals in the women's 1500m, 3000m, and 10000m.

When I saw this news in the summer, my feelings were hard to describe...

However, there was also good news. At the end of August, Zhang Li's Fengming Real Estate was recognized by the China Construction Bank as one of the "Top 100 Real Estate Enterprises with Comprehensive Benefits in the First Batch of China".

The eligibility criteria for this evaluation include all qualified commercial housing development companies listed in the 92 Annual Report on Fixed Asset Investment Statistics.

In fact, Fengming Real Estate's main business to date is not commercial housing development, but official engineering contracting.

Commercial housing is only a side business. We developed a few commercial residential communities in Beijing and Tianjin as a trial, and they seem to be doing quite well.

On this "Top 100 Real Estate Companies" list, Xia Tian also saw some familiar names.

For example, Wan Ke, Hengda, Baoli, Lvdi, Wanda...

The changes of the times are like the surging air currents in the sky. Some are obvious clouds that can be observed. But the more macroscopic cyclones and warm and cold currents are invisible to the naked eye.

However, they do have a real impact on everyone's daily life.

In the 80s, people spent their money on three major items: bicycles, watches, and sewing machines.

In the 90s, the focus shifted to color TVs, refrigerators, telephones, and air conditioners...

In the new century, it became automobiles, real estate, healthcare, and so on.

Ten years from now, a house will require the combined financial support of three generations of a family, totaling six people...

When friends came over for a gathering at the end of last year, someone asked about summer.

"Brother Tian'er, you told us to pay more attention to strategies, but with so many strategies, how are we supposed to distinguish them?"

"Exactly. Often, what's above and what's below are different!"

"Yes, yes, what they say and what they do are not the same..."

Xia Tian's answer was: "Learn more about strategies and understand the intentions of government departments... Generally speaking, if a government department issues a strategy that doesn't involve many departments, especially finance, then it can be seen as 'we have a good idea,' but they won't actually do anything about it, and can be ignored..."

It's all about focusing on where the money goes; without spending money, it's all just empty talk.

"However, resources will inevitably be allocated skewed, and we must adapt to the times and keep pace with the era..."

After Zhang Li returned from attending the top 100 real estate companies "selection" event, she told Xia Tian, ​​"At the meeting, I met a real estate boss from Northeast China, surnamed Wang. We talked a lot, and he even mentioned wanting to discuss cooperation or something..."

Summer understood immediately; the real intention wasn't what it seemed, right?
Summer asked around and found out—hey, it's you, Old Wang!

You shameless bastard! Your son's already in kindergarten, and you still dare to fawn over him?!
You old Wang! You have quite the eye for talent!
Since that's the case, I won't stand on ceremony.

Summer brought out the long-term development plan for Fengming Real Estate that she had conceived long ago, the most important of which was the commercial plan to build large-scale chain city shopping plazas in various major cities!
In the summer, Fengming will continue to treat residential real estate as a secondary business – its main business is office buildings and urban shopping plazas.

Other businesses such as commercial housing development, high-end residential and villa development, cultural tourism base projects, and property management are secondary businesses.

Old Wang once said this: When a country is developing rapidly, real estate is bound to be a sector that experiences rapid price increases. However, this increase is not unlimited; generally speaking, twenty years is the limit…

I don't want things to turn out like those chaotic and messy real estate companies mentioned above in the summer.

He planned to build a long-term real estate company, so residential property development would definitely be part of it, but it couldn't be the main business, especially with the later expansion methods; risk control was crucial...

Old Wang's father was a veteran who had crossed the grasslands. His father-in-law held a slightly higher position than his own father!

He joined the army at 15 and was already a T-level officer by 28. Later, he transferred to Xihong City in Northeast China and worked as the office director for two years. Then he borrowed one million yuan to start a company and got a quota from an old comrade-in-arms...

In the original timeline, he was the first company from Dongda University to be involved in urban renewal, earning nearly ten million yuan from a single deal—but now that first place has been taken by Fengming.
What does "starting from scratch" mean?
Just like the three major shonen manga, in the end they all boil down to the story of a prince rising to power.

Now, in the summer, I plan to take the route through Wanda, making Wanda take a longer detour!

Anyway, after becoming the richest man, Lao Wang got arrogant and wanted to transfer his wealth? That was all borrowed money!

No need to borrow now, to avoid future trouble~
……

On August 28, Pierre Pello from the United States called to say that filming for "The Hunt" had wrapped up and they were working on arranging its release.

Whether the movie makes money or not is irrelevant; the main purpose is to solidify Michael's victory in retaliating against the false accusations. That evening, Xia Tian, ​​dressed in all black and wearing a black mask, tiptoed into the bedroom, subdued Milan on the bed in a few seconds, and then grabbed Xiao Xu's screaming foot—"Don't even think about running!"

"This role-playing game is unplayable!"

He was out partying until midnight, and the next morning, Xia Tian got up early, packed his suitcase, and went out again.

This time, he's taking Yong Ge and bodyguard Xiao Chen with him to Venice.

However, only Xiao Chen will accompany him to Venice. Yong Ge will have to go to Southeast Asia on the way to deal with some issues that have been brewing there for five or six years.

The business over there has gotten so big that it'll be difficult to manage if we don't sort it out later.

……

The 50th Venice International Film Festival was held on August 31st.

Whiplash received three nominations: Best Director, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Original Score.

On September 1, after summer had passed, CCTV held its 9th anniversary celebration.

Among them, Zhao Lirong, Guo Sen, Standa, and Cai Ming co-starred in a skit called "The Star Chaser".

Idol worship has officially become a social phenomenon recognized by the authorities.

On the same day, Beijing TV Channel 6 decided to be the first in the country to implement 24-hour broadcasting.

There are also 21 channels, and the daily broadcast time has increased from 8 hours to 18 hours.

In the past, after finishing watching TV programs, all that was left was to watch "pie in the sky".

However, the number of television sets owned nationwide is now very large, and the demand for television programs has naturally increased significantly!
In two years, we'll see a surge in TV dramas.

Editing of "The Hunt" was completed on September 6.

At the end of the movie, a new rumor begins to circulate in the town—a new prey has appeared.

……

Xia Tian and Xiao Chen spent about ten days in Venice before flying away on September 10th.

The film received three nominations, but only won Best Supporting Actor. Summer accepted the award on behalf of Liu Xun, who played the Thousand-Faced Buddha, who was absent from the event.

Summer arrived in Hong Kong first and handed the silver winged lion trophy to Liu Xun, which made the old man so happy that he shed tears!
Holding Xia Tian's hand, he remained silent for a long time.

Although his acting skills are widely praised and he has always had roles to play, he has never won an award.

The only film that received a Best Supporting Actor nomination was "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" in 91, but he still didn't win the award.

Unexpectedly, he won the Best Supporting Actor award at the three major European film festivals for his role as the ruthless teacher in "Whiplash"!
This feeling... this feeling is truly indescribable.

At this moment, countless Hong Kong actors must be filled with envy and jealousy! How many people from Hong Kong have ever won awards from the top three European film festivals? How did Lau Shun manage to be one of them!
I didn't go out in Hong Kong during the summer. I stayed home for two days with Sister Yun, Ah Ying, and Wang Fei. Then Brother Yong also came back from Southeast Asia.

I talked with him for more than two hours in the summer, and looked at some of the account books and letters he brought back, and then destroyed them all.

The three returned to Beijing on the third day.

However, after he left, Ah Ying went home for dinner—to her parents' house—and something came up.

Because Ah Ying had two failed relationships, not just breakups but her boyfriends' suicides, the two suicides were a huge blow to her.

There were also some rumors and gossip, such as that she was unlucky and would bring misfortune to her husbands, so she cherished Xia Tian very much at the time, and was even a little afraid of dragging Xia Tian down with her.

Because of this experience, her parents didn't say much about the situation involving their four-person family. It was tantamount to tacit acceptance.

But now her parents are starting to pay attention to something else: their daughter is already 30 years old—Aying was born in 63, shouldn't she have a child?

Coincidentally, while Xia Tian was attending the Venice Film Festival, Milan was subtly asked about this by Xia's mother – When are you planning to have a child?
