Whoa, whoa.
The sound of the waves gently beating on the yacht is surging in my ears. The light and gentle moonlight falls on the surface of the deep and vast ocean, with sparkling light. Like a sonata, it calls for the appearance of the mermaid. The dim night lights in the distance are shining, which is not really beautiful.
Cannes, which is crazy about movies during the day, is so quiet.
"The night of the blue coast, accompanied by the sound of the waves, makes people reluctant to leave." I heard English with a strong accent, and then I chuckled, "sorry, trying to pretend to be a poet, but obviously, I'm not qualified. I should still be more suitable for the image of upstarts. "
Roman's self ridicule made the corner of Langley's mouth rise relaxed. "Russian poets are no inferior to British poets."
"Unfortunately, I'm not one of them." Roman said in an easy way.
Two people did not continue to speak, let the sound of the waves occupy all the space, heart beat seems to unconsciously fit to the rhythm.
Peaceful and peaceful atmosphere in the quiet surging, eventually Roman took the lead to break the deadlock, "tieri seems to be very satisfied with the meeting tonight."
"Ha." Lan Li chuckled, "what about you? Are you happy with the party tonight? "
Roman's honest face showed an astringent and formal smile, "the attack is so direct and fierce, it seems that my information is wrong, you and tieri's feeling is not the same."
Expression is one thing, words is another. Obviously Roman is not as honest as he seems.
Lan Li turned his head and looked at Roman, his eyes shining with a smile, looking at Roman carefully.
Before Langley could speak, Roman said, "I'm sorry, no one likes to be calculated, no one likes to be concealed. I have to admit that I did something wrong. "
No sophistry, no explanation, but frankly apologized - rumor in the arrogant, defiant Roman is obviously not so rigid, his pride and arrogance, perhaps just an umbrella; What's more, the sincere apology is just a mask.
"I don't accept your apology." Lan Li replied.
Roman slightly Leng Leng, then face directly pulled down, said in a deep voice, "no one dares to refuse my apology."
But Lan Li didn't panic at all. He looked at Roman with bright eyes and replied, "I just did it."
In the past, there were sparks and swords. It seemed that fierce conflicts might break out at any time. The air was so tense that the noise of the party and the beating of the waves could still be heard in the distance, which made the anxious atmosphere more intense and close to suffocation.
At one moment, Langley was willing to believe that Roman might really take extreme measures, and then quietly let him disappear completely.
Then... Roman's baby face gave a smile and stretched out his right hand. "Now it's even?"
Roman ambush blue Li in advance once, and blue Li refused Roman once, two people is even.
Lanli held Roman's right hand, smiling from the bottom of his eyes, "the only time the right of refusal has just been used." So we have to accept it this time.
Roman laughed innocently, his eyes narrowed into a narrow slit.
"How on earth do you know?" Instead of continuing to take Joe politely, Langley calmly asked: How did Roman know he was trying to connect with Cannes?
Langley will not be naive and romantic to think that all this is just a coincidence. Roman is not a fool, neither is Thierry. They are all in the middle of calculation and counter calculation, calmly facing the situation of accidents and accidents, and now the real master of the initiative is the Russian tycoon standing in front of them.
With the right plan, the right time and the right promotion, Roman has really demonstrated his ability in wisdom and planning. He is definitely not the "Russian upstart" in imagination. He has his own wisdom in business investment.
Roman didn't deny it. He just shrugged. "I have my own connections. The birds are always talking, and all I need to do is connect the dots
Understatement of the words, revealing a strong self-confidence, deeply let people realize that the things behind is absolutely not so simple.
Obviously, the name "Roman Abramovich" is far from that simple. In this game, Roman firmly took the initiative.
Objectively speaking, Edith has no news in the front line of the battlefield. Langley chooses to ask Roman for help. From then on, he has lost the initiative.
Of course, lanli can still "turn his face away from others", pretending that Roman's help is not worth mentioning at all. A truly brilliant businessman should learn to put interests first; But the problem is that lanli is not a good businessman. He is not even a businessman. He knows how to do some things but disdains to do them.
In lanli's view, Roman's forbearance and low-key undoubtedly give the greatest respect. From the beginning of the event to now, for half a year, Roman has always been patient and gradual, even without intrigue and step-by-step. He has always just shown his sincerity to lanli as a friend.
Perhaps, this "sincerity" itself is Roman's stratagem; Perhaps, this "patience" is because Roman is waiting for greater benefits. However, whatever the reason, Langley must admit that Roman has carried out his plan perfectly, and his performance is impeccable.
What's more, don't forget that from the beginning, Langley didn't exclude the cooperation with Roman. He always kept an open attitude. Roman's patience and friendliness also gave Langley enough reasons to be willing to further negotiate - why is Langley not like that when Roman achieves his goal?
It can be a win-win cooperation.
Before Roman appeared, Langley had anticipated the development of things, and had made a decision, "thank you." This sentence is enough to make a statement.
Roman grinned shyly. He didn't seem to be used to this kind of Lan Li. "How was your conversation? Is everything all right? "
"Half and half." Lanli said frankly.
Roman was not surprised. It's true of any important business. "Can you tell me what grand plans Sisyphus is planning?"
This is the first time that Roman formally mentioned Sisyphus pictures in front of Langley, and asked Sisyphus pictures about its business and plans. After all, what should come is coming.
"Don Quixote channel." Langley didn't hide it any more, and then explained to Roman the form of online streaming media and the direction and goal of Sisyphus film in as concise a way as possible, "... We are taking risks, which is obvious, and we are not sure whether the company can make profits - after all, from the beginning, my starting point is just an actor, a film lover, Not business people. "
Lanli told the truth, and then he could see Roman's unexpected expression, which made lanli smile. "I have to be honest, because we need some support, especially the financial support, but we don't want to be interfered by Wall Street. They are after interests, and we have to let those investors understand the original intention of the company, Only when the two sides reach a consensus can the cooperation continue. "
Roman pondered for a moment. "So, you mean, you want someone to invest in a film company that doesn't make money?"
"... that's the right interpretation." Lan Li chuckled.
Roman pursed the corners of his mouth. "Well, that's a problem."
"So, Roman, are you interested? I mean, are you willing to take a gamble in the movie industry? "
"For a project that doesn't make money?" Roman looked sincerely at lenley.
Lan Li shrugged, "it should be said that making money is not the first purpose, but we all know that we can't run the company without making money. After all, we are not a charity. This is our way to make money, an idealistic idea. "
"Like Don Quixote?" Roman responded immediately.
"Just like Don Quixote." Lanli gave a positive answer.
Roman's accident is real - he felt the accident. He expected Sisyphus's big action, but he still didn't predict it accurately. This can't blame him. Even tieri, a veteran in the industry, was also startled by lenley. This is really shocking.
But calm down and think about it seriously. Many elites in London, including the Hamilton brothers, have joined Sisyphus film's plan. In addition to the appeal of hereditary aristocracy, the ability and strength of lenley itself are the most persuasive. This is not necessarily so dangerous.
Sometimes, it seems that there are huge risks hidden on the surface, but for the real opportunists, it is also a unique shortcut to success. Roman is very clear about this. So, did lanli really pry into the secret of the development of the industry?
Roman tried to explore the film industry, which is why he participated in the charity auction last year. Sisyphus film is indeed his favorite target; Now, things have changed subtly. What information is his intuitive judgment giving?
"About this... Don Quixote channel, is there a hopeful number for the first initial investment?" Roman did not respond positively, but raised another question.
"10 billion." Lan Li said honestly.
Roman's first reaction was that Langley was joking - as a reference, all of Roman's assets are about 25 billion, including those real estate; And lanli's first investment was $10 billion?
But then Roman realized that Langley was not joking, which made his eyes deeper. "You know, it's impossible to achieve it by personal strength." Wall Street forces must step in.
"I know." "It's going to happen sooner or later, and I'm just fighting for more initiative before Wall Street capital gets involved, just like apple," he said with a smile
