My 1999
Chapter 678 Lilac and Mahler
"Honey, are you busy?"
"Busy working."
"I made you a pot of preserved egg and lean meat porridge."
Yang Mi quickly pushed the cart over.
There is a casserole on top, with bowls and chopsticks next to it, as well as a few exquisite cold dishes.
"I happen to be a little hungry too."
Xu Liang stood up and walked to the low table next to him and sat down. An Kaiyue and Yang Mi placed casseroles and cold dishes in front of him.
Lift the lid.
The tangy fragrance greets you.
"good."
Xu Liang nodded with satisfaction, "Yueyue, your cooking skills are getting better and better."
"You like to eat, of course I have to study more."
"Fortunately, I can eat and exercise regularly, otherwise I would have been fattened by you. ...By the way, do you two want some?"
Both refused at the same time.
For the sake of body shape, women can give up everything.
"Then I won't be polite."
Xu Liang began to eat with a sigh of relief.
After he finished eating, Yang Mi quickly handed him a cup of tea.
The embarrassment in the afternoon could no longer be seen on the little girl's face.
"Husband, what do you think of Mimi?"
Xu Liang was stunned for a moment.
Exposed?
Subconsciously she glanced at Yang Mi. The little girl's face was red, but there was no embarrassment or anger in her expression, and she didn't look like she was complaining.
After calming down.
"How about what?"
"I want to be an actor. Mimi has filmed a lot of TV series now and wants to go further as an actor. Your Hongmeng company's pan-entertainment business is the best in the world. Can you take care of Mimi?"
Xu Liangang breathed a sigh of relief, it turns out this is what happened.
He thought what happened in the afternoon had been exposed.
"What did I think was going on?"
His eyes turned.
"Mimi, when you go back, you can set up a film and television company by yourself. I will let Hongmeng Entertainment take a certain share in it. If there are roles suitable for you in Hongmeng's film and television dramas, I will call you as soon as possible."
"Brother-in-law, my agency contract has been signed with Rong Xinda."
"It doesn't matter, I'll pay you the liquidated damages. Just pay me back when you make money."
Yang Mi was pleasantly surprised.
My brother-in-law is too proud.
But this is normal. Her liquidated damages of around one million are not enough for her cousin's monthly pocket money.
Thinking of this, I felt a burst of envy in my heart.
Envy is envy, she is not confused yet.
"Brother-in-law, how about I sign directly with your company?"
"Hongmeng does not engage in actor management business." After a pause, "Why, wouldn't it be good to open your own company and be the boss?"
“That’s good, but I’m a little girl and I don’t understand anything.
If the company goes bankrupt, won't you, brother-in-law, lose money? "
"Haha, compensation? How much can you compensate? Ten million or twenty million? If you are really afraid that you can't figure it out, then I will find you a professional manager to help you manage the company, and you can just concentrate on filming."
"Thank you, brother-in-law."
Xu Liang waved his hand.
"Okay, Mimi, you go out first, your brother-in-law and I have something to talk about."
After agreeing, Yang Mi very discerningly collected the leftover leftovers from Xu Liang's meal and pushed them out.
After the room returned to silence, An Kaiyue sat down next to Xu Liang.
"Husband, I am your cousin Mimi. When you are in the capital from now on, take more care of her."
"Well, don't worry."
Turning over and sitting astride the man's lap, An Kaiyue flipped her hair and looked charming.
"Husband, would you be very excited if we two sisters served you together?"
Xu Liang refused solemnly.
"Don't make such a joke."
Feeling the changes in the man's body below, An Kaiyue curled her lips.
"Your body is very honest."
Smiling, she hugged An Kaiyue's slender waist. After giving birth, this woman started to repair her pelvis before she was even out of confinement. Then she did yoga and exercise, and soon her figure returned to its original state.
"Did Mimi tell you something?"
"What can I say? How can a little girl like her have the nerve to say something like this? But don't worry, I will definitely be able to convince him."
Looking at An Kaiyue's affirmative expression.
Xu Liang finally understood something.
When the benefits are big enough, women will not only stop being jealous, but will join hands.
However, he is still a bit lacking in this aspect.
Corrupt officials can place more than a hundred mistresses in the same community and flip the cards every night.
He also wants to travel around the world.
We must continue to work hard.
After the Binhai Project signed a contract with Singapore, it was officially renamed the ‘Singapore Taihua City’ project.
It covers an area of 20.6 hectares, with a construction area of 927,000 square meters. The construction period is four years and it is expected to open in early 2008.
After finalizing the project, Xu Liang called Dalong and asked about CapitaLand Group.
The other party also gave clear instructions.
After the Binhai project is finalized, it is difficult to continue.
Let’s talk about it later.
Xu Liang didn't ask any more questions. He arranged things in Singapore and took a plane back to the Magic City.
——
"Mr. Xu, this land is the construction land of Magic City Universal Studios, totaling 3.9 square kilometers. Three connections and one leveling work are currently in progress."
Liu Fangqi, a man with a woman’s name, is the person in charge of Universal Studios Shanghai.
Xu Liang looked up and could see dozens of construction vehicles demolishing the dilapidated old houses and hauling away the garbage one by one.
"When will construction officially start?"
“If everything goes well, the earthwork will be excavated in September and construction will officially begin.
The project is divided into three phases.
The first phase mainly focuses on Universal Studios’ existing entertainment projects, including Jurassic Leap, Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey, Water World, Revenge of the Mummy, Terminator, and Back to the Future. The main customers are seven major projects. For young people aged 15 to 30 years old.
The second phase will mainly focus on Chinese content, initially including the operation and development of IPs such as Journey to the West, Calabash Brothers, Afanti’s Story, Black Cat Sheriff, etc. The main users are family tourists of all ages.
There is currently no plan for the final phase, mainly because it is intended to be reserved for future hot IPs.
The project has a total investment of US$2.5 billion and a construction period of five years. It is expected to open at the end of 2009. "
Xu Liang nodded and turned around, "How many people has the company sent to study in the United States?"
"Of the 76 people, 22 are studying project design, 30 are studying engineering management, and the remaining 24 are studying operations." Lu Hui said quickly.
A huge theme park is not just as simple as building it.
It involves garden design, engineering design, creative content, engineering management, project operations, etc.
This is a very complex system.
And it involves many patents, which is the foundation for Universal Studios to surpass other theme parks around the world and be second only to Disney.
To successfully develop Universal Studios Magic City requires a large number of talents.
So it is necessary to cultivate it in advance.
Moreover, Xu Liang always believed that only pure Chinese talents truly understand the core of the Chinese story. Therefore, as soon as the contract for Universal Studios in Shanghai was signed, he selected 76 people from within the company to study at Universal Studios in the United States.
They will also be responsible for the design and construction of China’s local IP.
"Let the company pay more attention to ensure that they can learn solid things in the United States."
"clear."
After inspecting the construction site of Universal Studios in Shanghai, Xu Liang returned to his home in Shanghai.
Siheyuan in Beijing and old bungalows in Magic City have become popular in the real estate investment circle in later generations.
Xu Liang was envious before he was reborn. Now that he has money, he certainly won't be stingy.
But he doesn't live in the magic city for a long time, and he doesn't buy as much as he does in the capital.
So far, only two units have been acquired.
One set is Lilac Garden at No. 849 Huashan Road, Wukang Intersection.
The other set is the Mahler Villa at No. 30, Shaanxi South Road, JA District.
Lilac Garden was built in 1862, covering an area of 20,400 square meters and a total construction area of 2,934 square meters. It is the first Chinese-Western garden house in Shanghai.
Two-thirds of the 40 acres of land in the park are Western-style gardens and one-third are Chinese-style gardens.
There are three Western-style garden villas built in the garden. Building 1 is a three-story British country-style building.
Building 3 is similar in style to Building 1, and Building 2 is an American-style villa built after liberation.
The origin of the Lilac Garden has always been a mystery. Most articles mentioning the Lilac Garden say that it was a garden built by Li Hongzhang for his concubine Lilac, hence the name Lilac Garden.
However, the elders of the Li family in Shanghai, Li Jiayu and Li Jiaxiao, all deny this.
In any case, one thing is certain - Li Hongzhang never lived in this garden, and the real owner of this garden is Li Hongzhang's youngest son Li Jingmai.
After Li Jingmai passed away in 1940, Li Jingmai's son Li Guochao sold all his family property and went to Hong Kong, and later to the United Kingdom and the United States.
Villa Mahler is different again.
It covers an area of 5,000 square meters, with a lawn area of nearly 2,000 square meters and a total construction area of 2,989 square meters, of which the main building area is 2,400 square meters.
The residence consists of 6 buildings of different sizes, with a total of 106 large and small rooms.
This gorgeous Western-style manor is a private garden-style villa that the British Jewish adventurer Mahler started building in 1927 and completed in 1936. It took nine years.
Mahler was the head coach of the Shanghai Racecourse at the time. He came to Shanghai in 1919 and became a wealthy businessman by betting on horse racing.
The main building of the villa is connected to the annex building. It is high and low, with a steep roof and a unique shape.
The designer of this villa was Mahler's youngest daughter.
The little girl had a dream one night, dreaming of a big house in a fairy tale style. Her father Mahler built this unique Norwegian-style house based on the style he saw in his daughter's dream.
Being rich means being willful and turning dreams into reality.
In 1941, Mahler left China to escape the war, leaving behind this "dream castle" that could not be taken away.
Currently, Mahler Villa is a branch of Sixi Tower in Magic City. Different from Beijing, Sixi Tower in Magic City specializes in a combination of Chinese and Western food.
Xu Liang is willing to spend money to hire a chef, and all kinds of ingredients are top-notch in the world. Even though each meal costs more than 10,000 yuan, there is still an endless stream of diners.
Building 1, Lilac Garden.
The layout here is still the same as it was in the last century.
When he purchased these two villas, he had an agreement with the above. Although the property rights were his, he could not change the overall layout of the two manors without permission.
However, as the Sixi Tower Magic City branch, Mahler Villa is large enough as a residence, but it is still a bit small as a restaurant.
The main reason is that there is not enough parking space.
