Reborn in the Entertainment Industry: This Top Star Has Real Achievements

After dismissing the security guards and letting them rest, Li Xiang followed Deng Wendi into her presidential suite.

"Sis, how did the talk go?"

Actually, there was no need to ask. Just by looking at Deng Wendi's smile after entering the room, Li Xiang already knew the answer.

"The agreement has been finalized, and it was a perfect match. I will be responsible for building the content supply, while Mukesh will lobby the government."

"Once the platform is established, the group's content resources can then be used to support them, which can be considered a win-win situation. However, many details still need to be refined."

Even she herself didn't expect that this one trip alone would be enough to secure the framework agreement.

Once the news reached News Corp., she could imagine how intense Murdoch's reaction would be.

You should know that his good-for-nothing second son wasted three whole years on this matter, completely outmaneuvered by those IAS bureaucrats.

They must have chosen the wrong path from the very beginning.

She had come to understand that in this country, the power of the government was far less reliable than that of the top local conglomerates if it came to accomplishing great things.

Thinking of this, she looked at Li Xiang with gratitude.

If it weren't for Li Xiang's introduction, she probably wouldn't have been able to get in touch with Mukesh.

In most cases, they will have no choice but to follow the official procedures of others and be dragged out for several years by this matter.

At this moment, as she looked at Li Xiang, who was genuinely happy for her, her mind raced, trying to figure out what else she could do for him.

"You're planning to head back to New York the day after tomorrow?"

"Yes, if things don't work out here, I might shamelessly stay a few more days and help look for opportunities."

"I didn't expect our Sister Wendi to be so amazing. Well then, I'm not going to waste any more time here..."

Hearing this, Deng Wendi was even more moved, feeling that Li wanted to give her heart to her older sister.

Li Xiang's younger brother's position in her heart is probably no less than that of her two daughters.

"Then you should go back first. I plan to stay in Mumbai to continue strengthening our relationship with the Ambani family."

"The plane is yours too. You're too delicate to cause trouble."

Just as she was racking her brains trying to figure out what else she could do to help Li Xiang, she suddenly thought of something.

"Do you have a voice in Huace?"

Li Xiang couldn't quite figure out why she asked this, but he still answered truthfully: "Yes, many TV series projects can only move forward with my approval."

"Moreover, the shares I hold were obtained with the help of Sister Fang and her husband. We are in cahoots in the company."

"So, you hold full ownership of the company's second-largest shareholder rights?"

"What's so funny about this?" Li Xiang nodded immediately.

"Do you have any plans to take Huace's content to the Indian market?"

"Korean dramas have been eyeing this market for two years, and in the last six months they've even started doing Hindi dubbing, desperately trying to expand their audience."

"You may not be able to compete with those soap operas about everyday life in the short term. Not only Korean dramas, but India itself is full of this kind of subject matter."

"But fantasy and martial arts, those are things that are unique to you."

As Deng Wendi spoke, his thoughts became clearer: "Why don't we send these kinds of dramas here?"

"I'll have the company translate it into English and Hindi first, so you can get a decent amount of extra income."

"Once it really gains a reputation, the market is so huge, no smaller than the domestic market. This benefit alone could double Huace's stock price."

It started as just a spur-of-the-moment idea, but the more she talked about it, the more she felt that it was entirely feasible.

At the same time, it can enrich Star India's video library and expand the channel's user base, making it a win-win deal.

Thinking of this, she looked intently at Li Xiang.

Li Xiang, who was being stared at by her, was also somewhat excited at this moment.

That overseas subsidiary he had almost forgotten about, that company he was in charge of, wasn't this the day he had been waiting for?

I originally thought that it would be at least a few more years before Chinese dramas were able to go global on a large scale.

Who would have thought that good deeds would be rewarded? He actually got to drink some soup, the kind that gets richer and more fragrant the longer you drink it.

This is not a trivial matter of being a year earlier or later; the key is to seize the window of opportunity and cultivate the viewing habits of Indian audiences in advance.

If Huace's TV dramas can truly gain a foothold here and establish a good reputation, buyers from other Southeast Asian countries might also take the initiative to come to them.

If that's the case, then this deal could be made.

"What are you standing there for? Give me an answer right now."

Li Xiang then came to his senses and immediately agreed: "Sure. Huace Overseas already has a subsidiary, so I'll take the majority of the profits."

"If this really works out, most of the profits will go to me; no outsiders will benefit..."

Deng Wendi was genuinely surprised, never expecting Li Xiang to have such a long-term vision, and excitedly stood up.

"You mean you own Huace Overseas' business?"

"Pretty much. I own 60% of the overseas company, so I'm the controlling shareholder."

"You little rascal! You little rascal!" Deng Wendi was genuinely excited this time.

They were still figuring out what methods they could use to get Li Xiang a slice of the most lucrative market share.

I didn't expect this kid to be so quiet and unassuming, but he had already paved the way in advance.

If everything goes according to her plan, Li Xiang's annual income from TV series exports alone could reach hundreds of millions.

If this money fell into the hands of outsiders, Deng Wendi would definitely be heartbroken, and might even resort to some means to squeeze the purchase price.

But if it were Li Xiang, the situation would be completely different.

Chinese martial arts and fantasy dramas all involve big investments and big stars, so the production quality is there. It wouldn't make sense for the price to be too low.

Deng Wendi has made up his mind to purchase Li Xiang's drama at the highest possible price and to launch a full-scale promotional campaign.

Although she had long believed that she would definitely have a share in the future of News Corporation, Li Xiang was Deng Wendi's younger brother.

The business dealings between one's own brother don't need to be so meticulous.

She wanted to show everyone the professional qualities of a true "brother-supporting demon".

Moreover, this way, the two of them are now tied to each other, whether it's film projects or the overseas distribution of TV series.

This is an even greater blessing for Deng Wendi—

Li Xiang brought her good fortune; this is beyond doubt.

Without waiting for Li Xiang to reply, Deng Wendi finalized the arrangements.

"When you go back this time, have them in China pick out some dramas for you, with martial arts and fantasy dramas being the priority."

"If your CEO Zhao has the connections, he can also secure good dramas from other companies in advance, and we'll handle the distribution for you."

"Keep an eye on the future, and stock up if it's suitable. With me here, there's no worry about sales. Even if you're just a middleman reselling video content, you can still make a fortune."

Li Xiang naturally understood the ins and outs, but he never expected Deng Wendi to be willing to go to such lengths for him.

Just as he was about to speak, Deng Wendi, who had been watching his expression closely, spoke first.

"No need to thank me. Compared to what I've done, you've done me a huge favor."

"Furthermore, once Chinese dramas open up the Indian market, having this channel in hand will be like having another trump card."

"Our relationship has been mutually beneficial from beginning to end; neither of us can do without the other."
