"Hahaha, Mr. Liu is so polite. Who doesn't know that the industry under your own name is not much lower than that of Mercedes-Benz. Especially in the intangible industry, your background and patent control have better development prospects than those of us who make cars!" Trich laughed.
"Do you take the numbers on paper seriously?" Liu Qingshan asked.
"Why don't you count? Don't forget that there are several big names on the rich list standing behind you. At least you don't have to worry about funds."
"Then you still want me to speak for you?"
"These are two different things. From the perspective of your development potential in the global entertainment industry, no one is more suitable than you. I heard that Hollywood has invited you to develop there several times."
"I have to go, but China is the foundation for my development. If I don't build the foundation well, I won't feel confident even if I go."
"You are too modest! By the way, how are you inviting the guests tomorrow?"
"The number is enough to support the scene, but you also know that the stars here are still very unfamiliar to foreigners, and there may not be as many big-name artists as you think!"
"That's not important. What's important is, have you invited the people in Xiangjiang?"
"Are they the four heavenly kings mentioned in your letter? They will all arrive tomorrow if they don't come!"
"That's good. Although these four people are a bit old now, they are still very famous in overseas markets. Jackiechan will also come, right?"
"Not only them, but also Hong Kong artists who have developed in Hollywood will come, and those who have opportunities to develop in the future will also come."
"I've heard that your influence in Xiangjiang is greater than that in the mainland. It seems that the information is accurate!"
"The main reason is that our Mercedes-Benz brand is big enough, otherwise I wouldn't be able to bring so many people together!" Trich was quite pleased with Liu Qingshan's humble character: "With you Hua The Chinese people are very comfortable to deal with, unlike my fellow countrymen who are too rigid, like to follow the rules and regulations in everything, and always use lawyers' advice to talk about things!" Liu Qingshan responded with the most reasonable response: "Everyone It’s good, our country is first and foremost a humane social environment, and this historical background has existed for thousands of years. To be honest, I personally think it is more humane!”
"Yes, humanity is what I, a foreigner, yearn for! Let's take the issue of you providing free drawings of future models as an example. First of all, there are various conspiracy theories within our group. It's me and Crystal, I’ve been helping you argue your case!”
"Actually, if I have any selfish intentions, I can just ask Daddy Bumi. He has always had business dealings with me and knows my business characteristics best!"
"Not only him, but also Gates, Miu Miu and Jobs. I talked with them all, so I decided to cooperate with you!"
"Well, I guess that's the case too!"
"But Mercedes-Benz may not be able to give you shares in the future!" When Liu Qingshan heard this, he immediately understood what he was implying, so he chuckled and said, "The few shares I have from them are purely out of favor. Our cooperation this time is of a different nature, and I have no intention of getting involved in the company's business now or in the future."
"These are exactly what the old guys on the board of directors are worried about. I will pass on your words."
"Thank you, Mr. President, for your concern."
"It's my responsibility to help you clear things up. By the way, this time I'm joined by people from the board of directors and the technical department. They want to take this opportunity to visit your high-tech park. Isn't it convenient for you?"
"There is nothing inconvenient. Even those laboratories with certain confidentiality are completely open to you!"
"No, those people are more willing to see the progress of your research on automobiles. To be honest, they are still not sure about the impact you will have on our industry in the future. After all, the current high-tech research projects in Xueyu are well-known. ." Liu Qingshan laughed secretly in his heart. He had already expected that these people would have such thoughts. He had recruited people for a meeting at midnight two days ago just to coordinate with this visit.
During this time, the relevant personnel had already arranged everything, and even built a temporary laboratory specifically for this purpose.
What these Germans are most worried about is that Xueyu will also get involved in the automobile industry in the future. In this way, there is really a bit of conspiracy behind the surface of hiring him as the global spokesperson.
The laboratory that Liu Qingshan had people build was only related to the research on the appearance of cars, and it also provided a reasonable explanation for the design drawings he produced.
What is the most critical thing in building a car, the engine? As long as there is no similar setup in the Snowy High-Tech Park, they will give it enough trust.
But what Liu Qingshan is interested in is not just the mere tens of millions of dollars from the endorsement contract, but also whether they will set up a joint venture factory in China in the future.
With advanced manufacturing technology, although it is still not mastered by the Chinese people, offline auxiliary technologies related to car building will be developed.
For example, it can be as small as a screw or as large as the mechanical equipment required for the assembly line. It is much more economical to use local raw materials to manufacture it than to transport it as a whole.
In the long run, the downstream parts production developed based on this factory will be the cornerstone of the future world factory.
There's no way around it. Nowadays, under the increasingly stringent technological blockade in Europe and the United States, don't expect to get technical support from others.
So first developing quietly from the perspective of accessory providers is the most practical means of business operation.
Regarding this, he mentioned it to the relevant domestic departments and it was approved by them. The guests stayed at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel that night, which is also a common choice for international business.
After all, this chain has opened all over the world, and is far larger and more universally recognized than Daddy Boonmee's dad hotel chain.
The specific contact with the guests the next day is scheduled to be after noon tomorrow. After all, these foreigners also have to overcome jet lag.
Therefore, in the morning of this day, Liu Qingshan was busy picking up people at the airport, especially people coming from Xiangjiang, who needed to be courteous.
Liu Qingshan's explanation in the car last night was also true. Mercedes-Benz itself is famous enough. Otherwise, with the help of Chen Long, Yang Wancheng and others, there would not be so many big-name artists in Xiangjiang.
His influence there is yes, but it is not as exaggerated as the rumors outside. Besides, there is a world-class film factory there, and there are too many crews rushing to shoot every day. How can there be so many idle people to participate in an event without any notice fee.
But the Mercedes-Benz brand is much easier to use. It is currently synonymous with top luxury cars, and it is still quite tempting in the entertainment industry where vanity is rampant.
Although the Four Heavenly Kings of Hong Kong did not arrive on the same flight, there was no major difference in time between them.
It's only a three-and-a-half-hour flight from Kyoto, so it's very convenient to get there. Among these four people, Liu Qingshan does not have a particularly close relationship with any of them. If we really want to distinguish them, he has only had a few exchanges with Liu Jiahua.
However, his relationship with Zhou Yanfa is very good, and he even helped him create a movie script. Most of the other people, such as those in the martial arts industry, were old friends with him, so almost all of them arrived on the same flight, including Chen Long, Hong Dabao and Liu Jiahua.
On the contrary, Ren Jiahua and Liang Jiahui, who are more familiar with him, arrived the day before and are currently staying at the Snowland Lotus Hotel, a subsidiary of the Snowland Group.
Several groups of people who came today were arranged by him to Dad Hotel, and he was particular about arranging these people separately.
This is about the complex interpersonal relationships in the Hong Kong entertainment industry and has little to do with the main plot, so let’s leave it aside.
Chen Zuming once again became Liu Qingshan's half-butler-like figure, and most of the matters that were received and sent were given full authority to him.
By the way, Liu Qingshan helped him create two Hong Kong film scripts, both of which were directed and starred by him.
Now the first part has been officially completed. It is a kung fu movie and will be officially released in the first month after the Chinese New Year.
Liu Hua is responsible for the layout of tomorrow's venue. He is now the general manager of Xueyu Entertainment. Although he does not have a formal title, he already has the right to mobilize some personnel and materials.
This guy is a good person, very good at dealing with people and sophistication, and he operates so neatly. Because of this, he served as a regular guest in the subsequent variety show. This person's other talents were not outstanding, but he was a good hand at arranging affairs.
And after using this program to increase his fame, Liu Qingshan will create a script specifically for him. It is precisely because he is well aware of these arrangements and plans that this guy is now very motivated and has become the busiest in the snowy area. one person.
Even though he speaks with a Beijing accent and behaves more like a Kyoto alley kid, he is an authentic Northeasterner. He served as a soldier, a worker, and went to sea. Later, he was admitted to the National Academy of Drama, and he was considered to be a stay-at-home actor. Worked in Kyoto.
However, due to image problems, he has participated in many theater performances, but most of them were inconspicuous little people and supporting roles. When he even participated in the movie "Crazy Stone", his salary was only a meager 25,000 yuan.
play
The "black-skinned" Huang Bo is even worse, with only 10,000 yuan, but now that he signed with Xueyu Entertainment, the situation of both people has changed dramatically.
This time, there was no Huang Bo helping Xueyu entertain the guests. This person was currently filming another movie "Crazy Racing" directed by Ning Hao, so he didn't have time.
In the afternoon of that day, Liu Qingshan took the guests to the Kyoto City Hall. No matter how important his affairs were, he did not dare to delay the official meeting. Liu Qingshan still had this awareness.
It was not until after four o'clock in the afternoon that the group rushed to the National Television Station, where there was also a welcome ceremony waiting for the guests.
Since Mercedes-Benz sponsored this year's Spring Festival Gala, Trici specifically mentioned the topic of Taylor's participation in the performance during the following talks.
In fact, before today, National Television had internally determined Taylor's participation, but it would only be officially announced to the outside world after the guests arrived.
The Chinese song she is going to sing has actually been confirmed. She also needs to sign the sponsorship contract after Trichy arrives before there will be any further publicity issues.
