Chapter 58 A movie without popcorn has no soul
Two years ago, New Century Investment ‘returned’ to South Korea under the name of ‘Overseas Investment Company’ and began to intervene in Korea on a large scale, especially in various industries in Seoul, most of which are normal business development.
The only thing that has a little selfishness is the entertainment industry, or in other words, the movie circle.
In this era, it is actually very simple for capital to enter the entertainment industry. The larger the capital, the more willing the power, the more popular it is. However, the film circle still has various restrictions.
It’s not that I can’t get in, but that this circle is too professional and those who can emerge in the circle basically have their own backgrounds. It is easy to fool foreign capital and cheat people and can only admit that they are unlucky.
Only when someone in the circle accepts it can you truly enter this circle and make money.
At that time, Luo Junning had already had considerable influence in the film circle, and New Century Investment was his industry. Even if he was hiding his name, he could easily enter the film circle.
However, Luo Junning was very worried and did not want to be controlled by others, so she did not follow the normal channels. Instead, she let New Century Investment take the "channel" path. By fighting with Xijie Entertainment, she began to purchase real estate and real estate in several major cities in South Korea, and then opened her own theater chain.
The relationship between New Century Investment and Luo Junning at that time was the most secret. Except for the only few people, even the Korean officials did not find out about this relationship at the first time, although there were reasons why they did not pay full attention to it.
So in just half a year, New Century Investment has inserted its hands into all walks of life and has a considerable influence.
If New Century Investment is targeted by forces outside the capital circle, it may cause a headache for the government to die together and cause a lot of people to lose their jobs.
After all, the foundation of New Century investment is not in South Korea, so it also has the qualifications to die together, or even just break the fish in the net.
Such influence may not have much influence in each circle alone, but together, it makes their "land enclosure" and "house building" journey go smoothly. Even if Xijie doesn't want to see someone grab resources with him, within the scope of normal business methods, he was successfully stole the chicken by the capital New Century investment, becoming the second largest theater in South Korea, entering the film circle with a lofty attitude.
Moreover, with Luo Junning's existence, Xijie Entertainment wants to join hands with people in the film industry to eliminate the possibility of the theater film source invested by New Century.
Of course, this is the previous situation. The two theaters competed in tit-for-tat, but they were still restrained. It was not until Li Chengtai took control of Xijie Entertainment and chose to join Luo Junning that this situation was relieved.
At this time, Luo Junning no longer overshadowed his relationship with New Century Investment. Although it is not well known, it is not a secret in the so-called upper-level circle, and it also provides him with the qualification to have an equal dialogue with Li Chengtai, Xijie Entertainment, and even cooperate.
Oh, right!
Li Chengtai used this reason not to join forces with Luo Junning, but even more to cooperate with Luo Junning himself, rather than Xijie Entertainment, Infinity Group or New Century Investment.
Luo Junning doesn't care. As long as it helps him maintain influence in Korea and can better take care of his girlfriends, it can be discussed.
The current situation is that after the two cooperated and alliance, the vague hostility between Xijie Entertainment and New Century Investment was completely over, and even entered a stage of mutual support.
The biggest manifestation is that the New Century Investment Cinema, which originally had only two theaters in Seoul, has added three theaters in Seoul.
The money was naturally invested by the New Century, but if Xijie Entertainment did not have the links and bridges, it would be a more troublesome and not worth the loss.
Such a situation is something that Zheng Xiujing doesn't even pay much attention to.
She is just a little girl, and she still needs a year to become an adult. In addition to her work at f(x), she is completely focused on how to guide her brother-in-law, and how can she care about anything else?
Now, she was following Luo Junning, but she was thinking about the previous "sisters" and brother-in-law watching movies.
If she remembers correctly, this movie theater located in Dongdaemen is just outside the street of CGV Cinema under Xijie. My brother-in-law has not come to see it with those sisters.
In other words, does this cinema belong to me and my brother-in-law?
This thought was barely reasonable, so Zheng Xiujing smiled so sweetly. This smile made Luo Junning confused and could not guess what the child was doing.
If I really know, I would probably have a good joke:
I went to watch movies with my girlfriends before, but I did not come to this new theater that opened two months ago. However, it was just to cooperate with my girlfriends and attract audiences for their own theaters. I kept going to those three theaters even though there were passers-by waiting.
Now he is with Jung Soo-jin, and although he can do the same publicity, there is no need.
What's more, Jung Soo-jing is just his sister-in-law, not his girlfriend. If she really uses this child to promote it or a lover-style publicity, she will not be able to pass it even if she can pass it.
He didn't want to call Jessie Jeon after watching the movie halfway through.
But after all, it was his own cinema and he just took his sister-in-law to watch the movie. Luo Junning didn't take the child to queue up. After getting the ticket from the theater manager, he went directly to the normal passage and entered the screening hall.
"Brother-in-law, I want to drink Coke and eat popcorn."
Following Luo Junning and seeing his hands empty like wild, Zheng Xiujing quickly reminded her in a low voice.
You know, movies without Coke and popcorn are not soulless at all!
Luo Junning looked at the child with a strange look and wanted to say, "This movie is not a popcorn movie," but in the end he nodded and took her to Coke and popcorn.
"I want big bags, two big bags!"
Coke is a big cup, and there is no doubt about this. However, when buying popcorn, Luo Junning only wanted to buy a small bag and let Zheng Xiujing eat it alone, but Zheng Xiujing waved her hand and gestured a big circle, asking for a big bag.
The staff looked at Luo Junning and saw Luo Junning nodding, so they gave two big bags of popcorn.
"Wow!"
Zheng Xiujing cheered and carried the two big bags into her arms, "Brother-in-law is the best!"
Chapter completed!
