Chapter 511 Brother, You Are Very Brave

After forming a united front with Mag, Yang Ruoqian continued to stay in the foreign branch for a long time.

It was not until the crew had completely decided on the cast that Yang Ruoqian called the secretary who was handling various affairs in China and asked her to start arranging matters to return to China.

However, Mr. Yang was not really completely relieved about the crew.

It took Mr. Yang, the old hands in China, a long time to get it done. How could the director of this movie be so easily dealt with?

It's just that the address of this movie is located on an alien planet in a distant galaxy. It is set that this alien planet has its own unique ecosystem and a unique biome under this ecosystem.

The filming locations include Europe, Asia, America, the archipelago in the Pacific, and even plans to film in Antarctica.

Yang Ruoqian will meet with the crew at that time, so there is no need to rush.

Of course, before leaving, Yang Ruoqian will follow the old rules and treat the crew to a big meal.

Labor costs are generally higher abroad, and the cost of eating and drinking will be even higher. Mr. Yang can't miss this good opportunity.

Looking at the final list in his hand, Yang Ruoqian nodded, and was very satisfied that all these actors met the script settings.

The woman who was kept by the director during the preliminary selection and given a chance to re-audition, who seemed to be named Natalie, finally succeeded in getting the position of the female lead.

It must be said that this blonde, blue-eyed, hot woman is a bit perfect in Mr. Yang's stereotype of Western beauties.

After the actors were decided and the contract was signed, Yang Ruoqian didn't have much concerns - even if some groups put extreme pressure on them, it would be impossible to change the established facts.

"Is the cast set?" In the room, Chang Zhiqing lifted her black silk stockings, "I see there's a lot of discussion online right now."

Yang Ruoqian responded, "It's all hype. We didn't find any actors who are popular, and we're not an international entertainment company. How can a cast get so much attention?"

"A tall tree attracts the wind." Chang Zhiqing sighed, "Actually, I'm not that worried about these things online. I'm just afraid that the turmoil on the Internet will affect domestic opinions... You know, some people get dog food and dare to say anything."

Is there such a good thing?

The Kuiguang Group has already won the position of the leader in the domestic entertainment industry, and has put pressure on the traditional circle. Who dares to pull the tiger's beard?

Yang Ruoqian looked at Chang Zhiqing, considered his words, and said: "Actually, you don't have to worry too much about the group's 'money'. Let me put it this way, if we lose, we lose... At this point, no one can threaten us with money."

"Think about it, the group is not listed, and financial means have no lethality to us; we also have the best environment and the largest traffic social platform in our hands, and it is wishful thinking to suppress us from public opinion."

"In terms of influence, the group has signed so many stars, has so many works, and involves various fields... It is not an exaggeration to say that one call can attract hundreds of responses. Who can have a greater influence than us?"

"How could we not express our true opinions because of money?"

The most important thing is that the group and the official cooperation is also very pleasant.

Although it is not to the point of staring at someone to death, no one can do anything to the group.

Chang Zhiqing was a little stunned after hearing this. After a long while, she sighed: "Yeah... We don't need to think so much. It's only been two years. I can still remember how the company was about to go bankrupt."

Yang Ruoqian laughed and supported Chang Zhiqing's waist: "Let's go, let's go to eat... Why are you wearing these high heels again today?"

It's no secret that she doesn't know how to wear this kind of shoes.

"Ha! Who told you to have so many beautiful women in the cast?" Chang Zhiqing hooked her eyes, "How can I go there and embarrass myself?"

"Tsk, get in the car, beautiful woman."

...

Soon, the two arrived at the reserved restaurant.

In order to cater to everyone's appetite, the restaurant's dishes this time include Chinese and Western food, as well as creative dishes that combine the two.

Mag, who came to the restaurant early, was holding a wine glass and talking to the director.

"What are you talking about?" Yang Ruoqian walked up and asked casually.

Mag immediately turned around and replied: "I just told the director to make the movie according to his own ideas and not to care about any outside voices."

"The battlefield of public opinion is not so easy to grasp. Sometimes it is normal for some bad voices to come."

"But Sir Yang, you'd better pay attention to the domestic public opinion environment. You have the media in your hands, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

Yang Ruoqian nodded: "Don't worry about this, I have asked someone to pay attention to it."

After talking about work, everyone sat down one after another. Some people ate, and some people toasted each other with wine glasses and communicated with each other.

Most of the people here will become colleagues in the next few days, and there may be a possibility of cooperation after the filming of the movie is completed.

Getting to know each other at this time may give you more resource channels in the future.

What if someone here becomes famous in the future?

If you can establish a good relationship, you can also have a share of soup.

Halfway through the meal, Natalie, who was wearing a red modified version of the Chinese cheongsam, came over with a wine glass to toast Yang Ruoqian, saying that she was grateful for giving them such a good opportunity and resources.

“…”

After having had enough wine and food, Yang Ruoqian and his team bid farewell to the crew and went to the airport. After completing the exit procedures, they boarded the plane.

In the luxurious bedroom at the end of the private plane, Chang Zhiqing complained while changing clothes: "I usually don't pay attention, but now I think about it, you have a lot of love."

"I don't have any love." Yang Ruoqian put on his nightgown, yawned and lay on the bed, "I didn't feel it."

First, he didn't feel it, and second, after living two lifetimes, Mr. Yang didn't have much desire for excitement. He just wanted to live peacefully with his wife.

"Gao Naiyun counts as one, I'll block it for you." Chang Zhiqing clapped her fingers, "Then there's Shang Qianyu from behind, and then there's Natalie just now... Well, it would be better if you weren't so handsome."

"What a mess." Yang Ruoqian smiled, not taking these words seriously at all, "Don't think too much, why not think about what to have for breakfast tomorrow."

The slender Chang Zhiqing looked in the full-length mirror: "Tsk, I can just eat a vegetable egg roll. I don't want to be too fat."

Just as the couple was chatting about their daily life, Yang Ruoqian suddenly received a message on his phone, which displayed a long string of English words.

"Who sent me this email?" Mr. Yang was a little confused, "Have foreign email scams also been sent to me?"

"What email? Let Xiao Luo translate it. I'm quite curious about what methods foreign people will use to commit fraud." Chang Zhiqing immediately became interested after hearing this, "To be honest, I have never been defrauded once in my life. I feel uncomfortable."

The English skills of the two of them are actually quite good, but they have deteriorated too much after not using them for a long time. It is still a bit difficult to read this kind of email, and there may be deviations in understanding.

So it is better to let Luo Rujie help translate.

Although there is no Luo Ruyu's holographic projection equipment on the plane, they can still have real-time conversations with Luo Ruyu through the Internet through their mobile phones.

Yang Ruoqian opened the software and sent a message: "Xiao Luo, come out!"

"Here you go, Dad! What are your orders?"

He looks very energetic. Could it be that his recent participation in high-level decision-making of the company has made this traitor feel proud?

Yang Ruoqian complained in his heart and forwarded the content of the email to Luo Ruyan: "Please translate this email for me. Don't use the machine to read it."

Luo Rujiu corrected him seriously: "Dad, no matter how good my translation is, in principle it is still a mechanical translation."

Chang Zhiqing, who could also see the chat content, couldn't help but send a message to teach her incompetent daughter: "Stop talking nonsense and translate quickly."

Luo Ruyu was very obedient: "Okay, mother... let me see, oh, it's not a big deal, it's just that we seem to have been blackmailed."

Yang Ruoqian and Chang Zhiqing looked at each other - is this really a scam email? !

"What is the specific content? Please translate it."

Luo Rujie tried his best and asked curious questions while translating: "This email says that they are employees from the dessert company. They think that the selection of crew members for our new movie will pose a significant risk of offending others. As long as they buy them The product can eliminate this risk... Their guidance letter requires 2 million US dollars. Uh, that's about it. What did you do?"

"This must be blackmail, right?"

Dessert company, $2 million guidance?

Although Yang Ruoqian had never heard of this company, he was still familiar with the number and the term.

$2 million…

Didn't he tell Ma Ge not to pay attention to related matters before? How come the email was sent to the headquarters of Kuaiguang Group?

Mag said that when a company asked for this fee, the other party contacted Mag's company's public email address.

But this time it was sent directly to Yang Ruoqian's personal work email.

As the boss of a large group, Mr. Yang has three commonly used emails, one is the company's own email, one is his personal work email, and the last one is his personal email.

The other party did not send this email to the company mailbox, but chose to send it to Yang Ruoqian's mailbox, which speaks volumes.

Chang Zhiqing obviously remembered this. She was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Yang Ruoqian: "Didn't you ask Ma Ge to solve this matter?"

"Don't worry, I'll ask Ma Ge first." Yang Ruoqian dismissed Luo Ruyu casually, switched back to the mailbox interface, and took a few pictures.

He then sent the pictures to Mag from WeChat.

"Mag, is this company the one you told me about last time?"

It was obvious that Dian Mag was not sleeping yet. He quickly replied to the message: "Dessert company...yes, it should be this one. Sir Yang, have you also received their email? It seems that I didn't reply." , they will come directly to you.”

When Ma Ge said he didn't reply, he really didn't reply. Not only did he not reply to emails, he also wouldn't answer the phone.

However, he did not expect that the other party would not give up and directly contacted the headquarters of Kuaiguang Group and directly approached Yang Ruoqian himself.

Do these people think that Ma Ge blocked the news and did not let Yang Ruoqian know?

Seeing that Yang Ruoqian didn't reply immediately, Ma Ge asked again: "Sir Yang, what are you going to do? I rejected it for you?"

Yang Ruoqian thought for a while and said: "Since the other party doesn't understand what polite refusal means, there's no need to give face. Just formally refuse it and tell them in the most affirmative tone that we don't need this service and don't give it to us in the future." Recommended.”

"Okay, I'll send it here."

Yang Ruoqian nodded: "After sending it, give me a copy of the text, so that we can both agree on the same statement and make the other party give up on this idea."

"No problem, I'll write it right away, about 20 minutes."

While Yang Ruoqian and Mag were discussing the specific response, Chang Zhiqing was also chatting with Luo Ruying.

"Xiao Luo, how big is the difference between the free translation and the literal translation of this email?"

Luo Ruying must have polished the content of the email when translating it.

"It's actually not bad, mom. The other party is just warning us that if we don't buy their opinion guide, the reputation of the movie will be greatly affected in the future. They told us that they have already warned us, and it's a threat anyway."

Yang Ruoqian got Mag's copy and sent it to the "dessert company". He was relaxed: "It's okay, they can do whatever they want. I would rather spend 5 million on public relations than give them even 200 yuan."

"This is the same as piracy. The compensation obtained by defending rights may be one-tenth of the cost of defending rights, but I still have to defend this right. Otherwise, won't any cat or dog be able to ride on my head in the future?"

"Today it's a dessert company, and tomorrow it may be a bread company. If you open such a loophole, you will inevitably be blackmailed in any movie you make in the future. It's better to make your attitude clear at the beginning."

And you can spend more money, a lot more money.

Chang Zhiqing climbed onto the bed, hugged Yang Ruoqian's neck and lay down: "I know, go to sleep."

"..."

The next day, I got up from the bed, stretched, and subconsciously picked up my phone to look at the message on it.

After receiving the reply, the dessert company never sent another email.

At the top of the message prompt, there is a picture and a message sent by Qi Mu.

"Mr. Yang, this is something I found on the Internet today. It is not widely spread, but I think we should pay attention to it."

"Some accounts are posting dynamics, and their words and deeds are all questioning the selection of actors for our new movie. Do you think our public relations or legal affairs department can do anything?"

Yang Ruoqian looked at these dynamics and was surprised and happy in his heart - brother, you really dare to post!

Before, he thought that no one in China dared to offend the bad luck of the Kuiguang Group.

Not bad, not bad, courageous!

"I will return to China today, let the public relations and legal affairs department go to the conference room and wait for me to come back."

PS: I received a fraudulent private message on Steam some time ago, which made me very happy and teased him severely. But I am also very strange. I don't play CS2, why would he use CS2 store items to chat with me? (End of this chapter)
