Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings

"I know it's a little difficult for you to believe me right now." Du Yongxiao smiled slightly. "So make a call!"

"Uh, what do you mean?" Li Xiuman looked surprised.

Du Yongxiao took out a business card from his arms and said: "This is the general manager of PolyGram Records, his name is Yan Xiong. You can call him for consultation. Of course, if you have any questions, you can also ask him directly - ——”

As Du Yongxiao said this, he took out Yan Xiong's business card from his arms and handed it to Li Xiuman.

Li Xiuman was dubious. He took the business card and looked at it, then got up and went to the front desk to make a call.

Du Yongxiao sat there, drinking tea, with a leisurely attitude.

When Du Yongxiao founded PolyGram Records in the United States, he handed over all business operations to Yan Xiong.

Yan Xiong is also a thoughtful person. In order to realize his dream of becoming an entertainment tycoon, he not only recruited excellent professional managers for PolyGram, but also made Michael Jackson and other big stars serve him comfortably.

In this way, thanks to Du Yongxiao's golden fingers and Yan Xiong's polishing, PolyGram Records has now become the world's number one record company, and its strength is so strong that it makes ghosts scream.

However, Du Yongxiao has always hidden his identity externally, and few people know his specific relationship with Polygram Records.

On the contrary, Yan Xiong is not the kind of person who likes to hide his identity. During those years in the United States, he wanted everyone in the United States to know that he was the president of Polygram Records. To this end, he held a large party at Beaver Hills in Hollywood for three days in a row. , let the big stars in Hollywood know what he looks like, what his demeanor is, and who this all-powerful Hollywood entertainment tycoon is.

For this reason, Yan Xiong even chose a very domineering English name in the United States - Peter Xiong!

Today, based on the assets of PolyGram Records, plus the assets of Fox-Paramount, the two add up to a total of 6.8 billion US dollars.

Such a total amount of assets is also a powerful presence in Hollywood in this era.

Therefore, Yan Xiong ranks at the top of the list of richest people in the American entertainment industry. Last year he was fifth. This year he has improved two steps and ranked third.

Nowadays, if you are in the American entertainment industry and you don't know that there is a famous Chinese named "Peter Xiong", then you will not be able to survive and will be considered low.

Li Xiuman called, not believing it at first. After all, what happened tonight was so wonderful.

I just came here to eat a bowl of noodles, but I encountered so many things.

When the call got through and Yan Xiong answered the phone, Li Xiuman hurriedly asked: "Hello, is this Yan Xiong, the president of PolyGram Records, Mr. Yan?"

Yan Xiong was stunned for a moment on the other end of the phone.

As an entertainment tycoon, he always uses the English name "Peter Xiong", which is very domineering. Few people call him Mr. Yan when asking this question.

Yan Xiong thought he was playing a small role. Plus, it was cold and it was so late, so he became annoyed and said impatiently: "That's right. It's me! Who are you and what are you doing?"

Li Xiuman said hurriedly: "That's it, my surname is Li and my name is Li Xiuman. I just want to confirm your identity. Yes, please don't mind."

"I don't mind your mother!" Yan Xiong said angrily, "Siba, don't think that I don't know how to curse. Why are you calling me to tease me so late and in such cold weather? Siba, believe me or not. Looking for someone to hack you along the phone line?"

Li Xiuman was stunned. Is this an entertainment tycoon or a gang leader?

Yan Xiong's scolding over there was not enough, and he continued: "Hey, you kid, listen to me clearly, I don't care who you are or who instigated you to play tricks on me. If I find you, I will let you die without a burial." land--"

"No, Mr. Yan! There may be some misunderstanding here!" Li Xiuman is a cultural person after all. He feels that Du Yongxiao has deceived him. It was a mistake to make this call. "I didn't want to harass you at first. It was a man named Du. The gentleman said he knew you..."

Yan Xiong was suddenly startled over there: "What, what did you say, someone's surname is Du?"

"Yes," Li Xiuman breathed out, thinking that he had finally shied away the responsibility, "There is a gentleman named Du here who asked me to call you to confirm that you are the president of Polygram Records..."

Li Xiuman quickly explained briefly what happened just now.

The more Yan Xiong listened, the more shocked he became. When Li Xiuman finished speaking, Yan Xiong immediately changed his tone on the phone and said with a smile on his face: "Ouch, misunderstanding! This is a big misunderstanding! I thought you were making trouble. You're kidding me, it's Mr. Du who asked you to call me - is he okay? Where is he now? "

Yan Xiong's change in tone made Li Xiuman at a loss, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Yan Xiong said a lot, and then said: "Now I can tell you clearly that the call you made is not a scam. I am indeed the president of PolyGram Records in Hollywood! Our company is headquartered at 195 Greenwood Avenue, Hollywood, USA. No., our company’s phone number is..."

Yan Xiong told Li Xiuman all the information about PolyGram in a serious manner.

Li Xiuman had doubts about his identity from the beginning. Coupled with Yan Xiong's tone just now, his posture was really not like that of a tycoon with an entertainment empire. He frowned and patiently listened to all Yan Xiong's words.

"Ahem, thank you, Mr. Yan! Thank you for telling me this, but now -"

"Why, do you believe me? Yes, I know. Did I scare you with my bad tone just now? Young man, don't be so petty!" Yan Xiong knew that since it was Du Yongxiao who asked this young man named Li Xiuman to call, there must be something fishy about it. After all, a busy man like Du Yongxiao rarely does such boring things. The most likely reason is that this young man has something outstanding, and Du Yongxiao saw his talent, so he did this.

Yan Xiong is worthy of being Du Yongxiao's first confidant, and he immediately guessed Du Yongxiao's thoughts.

Immediately, Yan Xiong used his trump card: "Well, young man, you should also know a saying that what you hear is false, what you see is true! How about this, if you have time tomorrow, we can meet, and I will make you completely believe what I said just now."

"Well-" Li Xiuman hesitated, "Okay then!"

For him, this is not a bad thing.

If the other party is fake, he will not lose anything.

On the contrary, if what the other party said is true, then he is lucky.

PolyGram Records is the world's largest company!

According to the Du, if he joined, he would be highly praised, and he could even invest in himself and open a company in Korea.

He felt a surge of excitement.

Lee Soo Man hung up the phone, returned to Du Yong Xiao again, sat down, and said to Du Yong Xiao: "I'm sorry, Mr. Du, I kept you waiting for so long."

"What did the other party say?" Du Yong Xiao poured a cup of tea and handed it to him.

Lee Soo Man took the tea, "He said he wants to meet me tomorrow."

Du Yong Xiao smiled. With Yan Xiong, the old fox, as long as he knew that Lee Soo Man was the one he liked, he would never run away.

"It's good to meet him once." Du Yong Xiao smiled, "Seeing is believing, hearing is false!"

Lee Soo Man also smiled, "You are right!" He lowered his head shyly.

Du Yong Xiao pointed to the little girl Deshan next to him: "It's too late, we have to send her home, we have to say goodbye first."

"Okay!" Lee Soo Man stood up hurriedly.

Du Yongxiao looked at him and suddenly called little Deshan over.

Deshan carried her little brother on her back and looked up at Du Yongxiao, not understanding what Du Yongxiao was going to do.

Du Yongxiao pointed at Lee Soo Man and said, "Deshan, you have a good voice. Remember this big brother. If he starts a company in the future, you will become his apprentice, okay? Believe me, as long as you do this, you will be famous in Korea and even Asia in the future!"

Little Deshan didn't understand why Du Yongxiao said this, but she knew that Du Yongxiao was not a bad person, and he must have his reasons for saying this.

Little Deshan nodded obediently, then bowed to Lee Soo Man and said, "Hello, big brother, oh no, master! Please give me more advice in the future."

Lee Soo Man did not expect Du Yongxiao to do this suddenly. He liked little Deshan very much and thought she was born with a golden voice. It would be perfect if she could cooperate with him and help him sing the chorus. Now seeing Du Yongxiao asking little Deshan to worship him as a master, he was a little at a loss for a while, and hurriedly helped little Deshan up: "Hey, don't do this, Deshan, you are a good girl, and you must have a bright future! Don't worry, if I can start a company, I will definitely make you a big star, yes, I swear!"

When Lee Soo Man said this, his eyes were looking at Du Yongxiao.

The meaning is very clear,

whether he can start a company depends on whether what Du Yongxiao said before is true.

If Du Yongxiao fulfills his promise, he, Lee Soo Man, will definitely do his best to train little Deshan into a talent and become a Korean superstar.

Seeing this, Du Yongxiao said nothing more and asked Li Xiuman and Xiao Deshan to exchange phone numbers and addresses.

Xiao Deshan had no phone at home, so she could only be contacted by calling the store.

After doing all this, Du Yongxiao said goodbye to Li Xiuman again.

Reading the error-free version! 6=9+Shu_bar published this novel for the first time.

Li Xiuman did not dare to be careless, bowed and humbly sent Du Yongxiao and others away.

It was not until Du Yongxiao and Jiang Linger took Xiao Deshan into the car and drove away that he straightened up and looked at the shadow of the car with a hint of expectation and joy.

…

Du Yongxiao drove Xiao Deshan to the entrance of Hudong.

Outside, a woman was rubbing her hands on the snow, waiting anxiously.

She was Xiao Deshan's mother.

Seeing little Deok-sun getting off the car, her mother widened her eyes in disbelief. She waited until she confirmed that the girl in front of her was indeed her daughter, who was carrying her little brother on her back, before she dared to step forward: "Deok-sun, why are you back so late? Go-hwan, are you cold? Come and let your mother hug you."

Deok-sun's mother works in a nearby western restaurant as a dishwasher, and she always comes back very late.

But no matter how late it is, her daughter, little Deok-sun, will sell the candles and go home before her.

At this time, Deok-sun's mother will take out the leftovers packed from the restaurant. The family is reluctant to turn on the lights, so they light candles to enjoy these rare "delicacies".

Deok-sun's mother is very lucky tonight. A guest left a plate of steak, and it was a rare Korean beef.

Korean beef is expensive in Korea, much more expensive than any sirloin beef.

Although the guest spit a few mouthfuls of saliva on the steak plate when he left.

Deok-sun's mother didn't mind. She wiped off the saliva and rinsed the steak casually, feeling it was as good as new.

Deok-sun's mother was so happy that she secretly hid the plate of steak.

At first, she hid it in the closet, but she felt it was not safe. The foreman would occasionally check it after get off work, so she took it out of the closet again, found a plastic bag to pour it into, tightened the plastic bag, and then stuffed it directly into her lower abdomen.

In this way, this bag of steak with the body temperature of Deshan's mother was brought back safely.

Deshan's mother was looking forward to it---

All the way, she imagined how happy little Deshan and her brother would be when they saw the steak.

But when she got home, she found that there was no one at all.

She shouted loudly a few times, but there was no response. She thought that she had sold candles and took her brother to play at the neighbor's house. She went to find him and found that he was not there.

Now Deshan's mother was scared, afraid that something would happen to little Deshan and her brother.

This woman with little culture and no ability was so anxious that she stamped her feet at the door.

In such a cold day, she waited at the door for a miracle to happen.

Now the miracle finally happened, but it also scared her. Her daughter actually came back in a car.

Oh my God!

How could this happen?

She had never ridden in such a car in her life. It looked very expensive.

"Mom, I'm back! Brother Du and Sister Jiang sent me back!" Little Deshan happily jumped into her arms when she saw her mother.

Although the heater in the car was warm just now, it was still not as warm as her mother's arms.

Deshan's mother took a look at Du Yongxiao and Jiang Ling'er, and was surprised that they looked like a golden boy and a jade girl, and they didn't look like bad people, so she hurried forward to thank them: "Thank you for sending them back so late."

"Mom, brother and sister not only bought all our candles, but also treated me to noodles with soybean paste!" Little Deshan said happily.

"Ah, how could this happen?" Deshan's mother was stunned.

Du Yongxiao didn't say anything, and Jiang Ling'er next to him began to explain carefully.

It is always convenient for women to talk to each other.

Soon Deshan's mother figured out the ins and outs of the matter.

"Oh, what should I do? You have done such a great thing, how can I thank you?" Deshan's mother cried gratefully, wiping her tears with the corner of her clothes.

"Don't say that. Deshan is a very good and obedient child." Jiang Ling'er said, "Mr. Du told me that he wants to sponsor her to go to school. I wonder if it's possible?"

"Ah, what?" Deshan's mother was surprised and looked at Jiang Ling'er and Du Yongxiao in disbelief.

"Don't worry, we are just sponsoring her. If she has the ability in the future, she will have to pay back the money!" Du Yongxiao smiled and said, "She has a very good voice, maybe--"

Du Yongxiao looked at Deshan: "She will be a big star in the future!"
