The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

January 15, 2001, Los Angeles, California, 6925 Hollywood Boulevard, in front of the Chinese Theatre, today the place is sparkling with stars.

On the red carpet, many Hollywood stars, rising celebrities, and top influencers appeared.

On both sides of the red carpet were reporters with long lenses and microphones, as well as fans who came to support their idols.

Every time a celebrity appears, they scream incessantly. Such ear-piercing screams would have broken the eardrums of most people.

But for celebrities, this is nothing special.

Hollywood has been experiencing a movie boom recently.

During the Christmas season last December, Hollywood released many films, with more than eight films grossing over $300 million in North America alone.

Of the films that have grossed over one billion US dollars worldwide, seven are Hollywood blockbusters.

The global box office of the movie "Captain America" ​​has just surpassed the four billion US dollar mark a few days ago, setting a new box office record in film history.

Today is a celebration party hosted by the production and distribution giants behind "Captain America" ​​for the film's production team.

Therefore, today's celebration banquet was very large, comparable to the Oscars ceremony.

CIA agents were also around, but they didn't take any action; they were there to make an arrest.

It's not certain who it is yet, but there's no doubt they have a general direction.

The heads of Hollywood giants such as Paramount, MGM, and Marvel Studios have arrived at the scene.

However, these people did not walk on the red carpet, but instead entered discreetly through the back door.

The celebration banquet began quickly. After the huge ice sculpture, which marked four billion US dollars, was smashed, Warner Bros., Disney, Universal Pictures, Columbia Pictures, 20th Century Fox and other giants were all envious.

A box office record in film history!!!
From Titanic to the Bourne Identity, and now Captain America, the box office records in film history are getting more and more outrageous.

To date, the most successful film series is undoubtedly "The Bourne Identity".

Two films have already been produced and released, with a total global box office exceeding seven billion US dollars. The third film has also been completed and is just waiting to be released this May.

Fans are already eagerly waiting.

Just now, Captain America 2 was also successfully greenlit, but the movie won't be released anytime soon; the specific date is yet to be determined.

However, Marvel Studios will release two movies this summer, and another superhero blockbuster later this year.

Warner Bros. and other industry giants fell silent after hearing this.

Paramount and the other two giants are like three mountains, suffocating other Hollywood film companies.

Even though they were able to survive in December, this is not a long-term solution.

This year's movie releases are still mostly from Paramount and the other two studios, and their blockbusters don't seem to be too picky about release dates, which is frustrating.

Ugh!
How to break?
Should we sue them for monopoly?
Haha, Paramount and the other two companies are not one company, and they don't have a monopoly.

Hollywood is currently experiencing a booming film market, sparking a Hollywood craze worldwide.

Although Chinese culture is ubiquitous in Hollywood blockbusters, it seems that people are quite accepting of it.

That's not the point. The key point is that Paramount and the other two studios have dominated the Hollywood blockbuster box office charts for many years. Over the years, the films they produced or distributed have consistently occupied the top ten or top twenty spots on the annual charts.

Looking around, it's rare to see films from Warner Bros. and other film companies.

As the saying goes, fortunes change, and Paramount has been in power for so many years, it's time for them to step down, right?

The CIA and the Federal Reserve are frantic, desperate to apprehend the top executives of the counterfeit money ring.

Disney executives had already discovered this, so they contacted the CIA to try and take down a senior executive of the counterfeit money ring.

Today is the celebration banquet, and Disney took the opportunity of discussing cooperation to invite Burns Vincent, an executive of the counterfeit money group, over.

With a large crowd at the scene, and the venue being the National Centre for the Performing Arts, a huge venue with so many celebrities present, security was naturally very thorough.

Even with the counterfeit money ring's cautious nature, they would probably be willing to come here, right?
In a small conference room next to the Chinese Theatre, three senior Disney executives were waiting, along with two assistants.

However, these two assistants were not Disney assistants, but rather two top CIA agents.

When Burns Vincent came in, he immediately saw the five of them.

While the three Disney executives were smiling and engaging in perfunctory exchanges with Burns Vincent, two top CIA agents had already begun their operation.

Burns Vincent was taken down almost immediately.

Even when he was taken down, Burns Vincent was unaware of what had happened. Why?
However, he soon learned the identities of the two people in front of him.

So Burns Vincent took the opportunity to shout a few insults, and the bodyguards outside, having received the message, rushed in instantly.

A great war began.

The CIA did indeed have many agents stationed near the small meeting room, serving as waiters or pedestrians.

However, Burns Vincent was no ordinary person; he was a salesman at the Super Dollar Factory, and in a sense, a high-ranking executive.

However, this high-level executive is not the same as that high-level executive.

After the battle, the scene was a complete mess.

Both sides suffered heavy losses, with Burns Vincent being shot several times. However, he was wearing a bulletproof vest and although he looked badly injured, he did not die.

He was taken away by his men.

After a major battle, the CIA gained nothing and lost many skilled personnel.

What a shame.

However, they did have an unexpected bonus: although Burns Vincent escaped this time, he most likely won't be able to get out again.

The CIA knows counterfeit money rings very well, and their executives disappear completely once they are exposed.

Although it's unclear whether they physically disappeared or are hidden in the crowd, they will definitely not reappear.

For the CIA, this can be considered a different kind of success.

In Guangzhou, on an island in the middle of the Pearl River, inside a villa, the atmosphere is very strange.

Wang Duoyu wasn't paying attention to what was happening with Liu Xiaoli and the others; he was being pestered by Wang Yifei.

"You're taking the college entrance exam next year, and you still want to release an album? Let me tell you, from the start of the new semester this September, you're going to be studying hard and can't touch your singing career again until the college entrance exam is over next year, understand?"

"But Brother Big Fish, my career is on the rise right now, I can't leave."

"I don't care, that's all I ask. I don't care if you're willing or not, just do it."

"Big Fish Bro, you're too domineering, I hate you."

"I'm immune to your threat that you sometimes hate me, just like Bai Doufu often says to me: I'm not playing with you anymore! So it doesn't work!"

what! ! !
After a conversation, Wang Yifei immediately broke down.

Her father is awful!
Wang Yifei's piercing scream drew the attention of Liu Xiaoli and the others.

"Wang Yifei, what are you yelling about? It's so noisy!"

Liu Xiaoli's sharp question immediately silenced Wang Yifei's scream.

"Big Fish, look, your wife is yelling at me again. Aren't you going to do anything about it?"

Huang Yanni, Huang Huiru, and Zhu Ling were all astonished. Wang Yifei was so disrespectful!

"You should watch your mouth first. You're about to rupture my eardrums. There's a time and place for you to hit those high notes, isn't there?"

After giving his eldest daughter a disapproving look, Wang Duoyu got up and sat down on the other side in a huff.

Bai Doufu chimed in at this point: "Yeah, big sister, don't always hit those high notes. My ears can't take it, and big sister, your singing is awful."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yifei immediately went berserk:

"What did you just say, Bai Doufu? That I sing badly?"

This was the second time she had broken down today. Her father's words had already been quite damaging, but Bai Doufu's words had taken it to the next level. Although, in reality, her singing wasn't bad; in fact, it could be said to be excellent, given that she's now a pop diva with four consecutive albums that have sold incredibly well.

With such solid album sales figures, who dares to say she sings badly?

"Yes, eldest sister, you don't sing as well as I do, that's what Dad said."

Wang Yifei immediately glared angrily at her father: "Brother Big Fish, aren't you going to explain yourself?"

"What am I supposed to explain? Go find whoever told you, why are you asking me?" Wang Duoyu rolled her eyes at him.
"You believe everything your sister says? If I said something random and you believed it too, you'd go crazy! Okay, stop arguing, let's eat."

After saying that, he ignored his daughter and prepared to eat dinner.

The very next day, Zheng Baoyin, Wang Jianchao, Wen Shixuan, Wang Meili, Tong Zhigang and others visited Wang Duoyu's home with gifts.

The arrival of a group of people made the whole villa even more lively.

With Wang Yifei and the other kids at home, the house is always lively, and now it's even more so with so many kids.

Even so, it was only because Wang Jianchao didn't bring all his children; otherwise, the villa simply couldn't have accommodated so many people.

On the fishing area by the shore, under the parasols, Wang Duoyu and his friends chatted while fishing.

There aren't any good fish in the Pearl River. Even if there were, Wang Duoyu and his friends wouldn't care. It's not that they don't care because they're rich, but rather that the fish in the Pearl River aren't of very good quality.

Over the past two decades, the Pearl River Basin has experienced rapid economic development.

In earlier years, such as in 1985, a currency with a face value of one hundred yuan was briefly circulated in Guangdong, but it was limited to circulation within the province.

Why?

Because Guangdong's economy was developing rapidly at that time and its trade was very developed, it was very inconvenient for people to carry large bundles of coins when making transactions, especially those involving more than 10,000 yuan.

So in 1985, Guangdong issued its own currency.

However, this thing was quickly stopped.

Faced with this situation, the fourth set of RMB banknotes was successfully issued in the first half of 1987.

The economy of the Pearl River Basin has developed rapidly, and the construction industry in the Pearl River Delta region has developed even faster.

In Tianhe District, Want Want Group has built a Guangzhou Central Business District, with skyscrapers over 100 meters tall rising from the ground.

This all requires a large amount of building materials.

River sand, cement, and steel bars have been among the most important and best-selling commodities in the Pearl River Basin over the past two decades.

In the Pearl River Basin, river sand is naturally dredged directly in the river, so Wang Duoyu often sees a large number of sand dredgers working back and forth on the river.

Then there's Yingde in the upstream region, which is known as the largest county in the province. It has almost become the largest cement plant cluster in the country by its own efforts.

As one of the three major tributaries of the Pearl River, the Beijiang River flows through Yingde in its upper reaches. Along the Beijiang River area, dozens or even hundreds of cement plants have sprung up.

Over the past two decades, it has provided a large quantity of cement products to the Pearl River Delta region and even the whole country.

Brands such as Conch Cement, Taiwan Cement, Longshan Cement, and Yingjin Cement have almost monopolized the cement market in the entire Pearl River Delta region, and have even exported to other places such as Southeast Asia.

Cement plants are among the most polluting enterprises, and their environmental protection efforts have been inadequate over the past two decades.

There is virtually no regulation.

Therefore, Guangzhou, located in the lower reaches of the Pearl River, naturally became a place with relatively serious pollution.

Although the Want Want Group has been working with local communities to carry out joint environmental protection efforts for five or six years in order to protect the local environment.

Unfortunately, whether in Yingde or Guangzhou, they are also facing difficulties.

Who doesn't want to achieve results?
Therefore, there are bound to be times when they outwardly comply but inwardly defy the rules. As a result, in the lower reaches of the Pearl River, one can still frequently see a lot of industrial waste floating down from the upper reaches.

Of course, even if Wang Duoyu wanted to eat fish, he would choose to buy it from the upstream section of the river where there was no industrial waste pollution.

For example, in Guizhou, a mountainous region, the fish are still very fresh and sweet, and are particularly pristine. Torch fish, Wujiang fish, and golden-backed crucian carp are all local delicacies.

"Jianchao, I heard you've got a new girlfriend recently? Is your back pain gone?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Jianchao was immediately embarrassed. He glared at Zheng Baoyin a few times, then explained:
"Uncle Jiu, don't listen to those rumors. It's not true. I have so many wives now, and I haven't gone out to have affairs for a long time."

puff!

His explanation only made things worse; once he did, Zheng Baoyin couldn't hold back any longer, and even Wang Duoyu shook his head and chuckled as he looked at Wang Jianchao.

"If you didn't go out and have affairs, the sun would have risen in the west by now. Look at you, you're over forty years old, why are you still acting like a spoiled rich kid, doing all this? Your daughter is all grown up now."

Zheng Baoyin echoed this sentiment:

"Yeah, Jianchao, Qianqian is already a pop diva now. You should at least tone it down and stop causing so much trouble."

The two of them, speaking in unison, made Wang Jianchao feel utterly ashamed.

Everyone knows that Wang Jianchao can't control his lower body and also has a serious collecting fetish.

When he sees a beautiful female celebrity he likes, he feels pity and wants to add her to his harem.

Even if someone is not very famous, as long as he sets his sights on them, he will definitely make them famous.

There was no way around it; Wang Jianchao was too rich and powerful.

There are so many senior executives in Want Want Group, and of course they all like beautiful women, but none of them are as promiscuous as Wang Jianchao.

After chatting for a while, Tong Zhigang suddenly steered the conversation toward the Super Dollar Factory.

"Professor, last month, we made such a big splash through Hollywood, successfully releasing over two hundred billion US dollars in counterfeit money into the market."

December is the last crazy month for the super dollar factory, almost invincible.

Clinton was busy making money, Burton and Byron were both extremely busy, and the Federal Reserve, though frantic, was being held back by the European Union.

Furthermore, the major capitalist families within North America are all busy fighting amongst themselves and have no time to deal with anything else.

This has indeed made the Super Dollar Factory a lot of money.

However, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse after George W. Bush was sworn in in early January.

In an effort to curry favor with his new boss, Burton Byron launched a full-scale crackdown on the rampant counterfeit money problem in North America.

The super dollar factory was very accommodating, and the counterfeit money disappeared in a very short time.

Previously, the CIA had taken out several sales staff from the Super Dollar Factory, and Martinez had no intention of pursuing the matter further.

The reason is actually quite simple: those so-called executives of the counterfeit money group who were pushed out were just people who were abandoned.

With such a large and profitable super-dollar factory operating for so long, it's no wonder some people would have ulterior motives.

In that case, some people naturally need to be dealt with.

It is better to kill someone by mistake than to let him go!
There's no way around it; it's absolutely impossible for any accidents to happen at the super dollar factory.

Moreover, the evidence behind this is not just internal whistleblowing and financial data, but also the third party Longkui and the Nuwa artificial intelligence.

Therefore, Martinez naturally wouldn't be soft-hearted.

Tong Zhigang brought this up mainly because Martinez had spoken to him beforehand, wanting to sound out Wang Duoyu's side through him.

What are your plans for this year?
Wang Duoyu glanced at the other person in surprise; he had thought Martinez would discuss this matter with Zheng Baoyin.

After all, within the Want Want Group, Zheng Baoyin and Wang Jianchao were the founders besides Wang Duoyu, and they held a high level of prestige within the group, even surpassing the Wang Meili and Wang Meihe sisters.

Wang Jianchao enjoys raising Siberian tigers, or he spends his time fishing, hunting, or chasing women and having children.

On the contrary, Zheng Baoyin is more family-oriented and more stable, so Wang Duoyu would trust the former more than Wang Jianchao.

"No rush. Tomorrow is the year-end summary meeting. We'll discuss at the meeting that this year's situation might be somewhat unusual, and that our group's plans need some adjustments."

Hearing Wang Duoyu's words, Zheng Baoyin and the others wanted to know the specifics of how to make the adjustments. (End of Chapter)
