China Entertainment 1981: Starting from Journey to the West

Standing at the forefront of the times, a pig can also realize its dream of flying into the sky.

But this does not mean that the flying thing is really a pig.

Who can seize the opportunity in the wave of reform, soar into the sky, and accumulate massive wealth? Who is not a genius?

In today's scene, before the meeting ended, some representatives already felt that something was not quite right.

As the industry boss, Gu Bei is really reckless?

"Mr. Gu! Mr. Gu!"

After coming out of the Capital Hotel, Wang Zhongjun hurriedly caught up with him.

"Is there something wrong with Mr. Wang?"

Wang Zhongjun looked at Gu Bei's half-smiling look, and became more sure of his guess.

"There's nothing to do, and it's getting late. If Mr. Gu doesn't have anything else to do, why not...have a casual dinner together!?"

Have a meal?

Gu Bei smiled and said: "Okay! Mr. Wang treated you last time, this time I will take you somewhere."

Wang Zhongjun then got into Gu Bei's car, and finally the car stopped at the entrance of a small restaurant.

"This is……"

Eat here?
Wang Zhongjun glanced at the little door and felt like he was coming back from a dream.

Large white walls, green doors and windows, and a five-pointed star on the sign.

Limin Canteen.

How did this restaurant open until now?

"Mr. Wang, please!"

Gu Bei turned around and glanced at Wang Zhongjun, who was still standing motionless at the door.

"Oh, oh, Mr. Gu please!"

While talking, the two people walked in together.

What surprised Wang Zhongjun was that he thought that such a small restaurant that was out of touch with the times would be deserted inside. When he walked in, he realized that it was not what he thought at all.

A total of six tables were set up, five of which were already occupied by guests.

There are still people queuing at the window to pick up food.

correct!

On the way here, Gu Bei made a phone call and reserved a table in advance.

Looking at the decoration style of the store, Wang Zhongjun felt even more friendly.

The cement floor is not even covered with ceramic tiles, and the internal walls are only covered with large white walls, with slogans plastered on them with colored paper.

Shameful waste!
Don't beat customers without reason!

Ha ha!

Kind of interesting!

As someone who has lived through that era, Wang Zhongjun naturally knows that everything here looks like the pure 80s.

As soon as the two of them sat down, the waiter brought the dishes and chopsticks, but his attitude...

"what are we eating?"

Wearing white work clothes, blue overalls, wearing sleeves, and an impatient look on his face.

Sister, you are a little into the drama!

Wang Zhongjun also noticed that both the decoration and the service here were restoring the state-owned restaurants of the 80s.

I just don’t know if the taste of the food can be restored in the same way.

Gu Bei ordered six dishes.

"Have finished eating!"

The waiter muttered, turned and left.

"Mr. Gu! How did you find this place? If I hadn't followed you and the clothes of the guests here, I would have thought I had traveled through time!"

You don't have that fate.

There is only one son of a plane in this world, sitting right in front of you.

"The owner of this store is a friend of mine."

No wonder then!

Only those who have truly experienced that era can understand the characteristics of that era so deeply and restore them so closely.

"Come on!"

At this time, Ma San'er came over with a bottle of wine and put it on the table.

Wang Zhongjun glanced over and his eyes widened.

This packaging...

Pick it up quickly and look at the production date.

Ok!

Come on for real!

It is actually Erguotou produced in 80.

Nowadays, it is not difficult to find Moutai and Wuliangye from the 80s on the market. After all, everyone knows that they are famous wines and only smart people can collect them.

But who would collect Erguotou?
Therefore, this kind of long-aged civilian wine is even more rare.

"Mr. Gu, this is..."

Although Erguotou in the 80s was rare, Wang Zhongjun was still more interested in Ma Saner.

Obviously, this is Gu Bei's friend and the owner of this store.

"Ma San'er!"

Uh?
This is obviously not a famous name, but the name sounds very familiar.

and many more!

Wang Zhongjun thought of the name of this store - Limin Canteen!
Benefit the people!

Thinking of this, his eyes instantly widened even more.

"Mr. Ma, who benefits the people?"

Ma Saner smiled and said: "Nice to meet you, we have met, Mr. Wang!"

seen?

"You are such a noble person and forget so much about last year's charity dinner." I remembered.

Wang Zhongjun couldn't help but blush a little. Although he was the boss of a film and television company, he was nothing compared to Ma San'er.

People have already sold their vegetables abroad.

"Also! Limin is not mine."

With that said, Ma Saner looked towards Gu Bei.

Wang Zhongjun understood immediately and felt that Gu Bei was unfathomable.

During the meeting today, I just learned that Gu Bei is the boss of Xiaoxue Food Company, and it turns out that Limin vegetables also belong to him.

How rich is Gu Bei's family background?

It's ridiculous that those people who came to him to communicate and prepare to attack Gu Bei at the meeting always thought that Mingqian asked them to cooperate in order to share risks.

With Gu Bei's family background, how much investment could he not afford?

It is obvious that he wants to help his peers and make money together with the big guys.

Fortunately, I didn't agree, otherwise I would really have become a clown.

Soon, the food was served, but it was not brought by the waiter. Instead, I went to pick up the food myself.

"Mr. Wang, try it!"

Ma Saner handed over a pair of chopsticks. Wang Zhongjun took a bite, chewed a few times, and his eyes lit up instantly.

This taste...

"Mr. Ma, I have to come here more often in the future. This taste is so authentic."

Ma San'er laughed when he heard this, said a few polite words, and toasted Wang Zhongjun with a glass of wine. Then he left on the pretext of having something to do, leaving Gu Bei to talk to Wang Zhongjun.

"Mr. Gu, you really hide your secrets."

Gu Bei smiled and said nothing.

"Mr. Gu, there's something I don't understand. You've already been so successful in other industries, why do you need to go into the muddy waters of the film and television industry?"

It’s not surprising that Wang Zhongjun has this question. The entertainment industry is too complicated and the environment is too chaotic. It looks glamorous to outsiders, but in fact it’s not a good place to be.

"People have to do something, otherwise their lives will be boring."

What else are you going to do?

You have been so successful, how about leaving a way for others to survive? ?
I don't know why, Wang Zhongjun has always had a very strange idea.

If it weren't for Gu Bei, he and Huayi Brothers might be the bosses in the current film and television industry.

"When these words come out of your mouth, how do I feel..."

"It's a bit of a show-off!"

Ha ha!

Gu Bei also smiled: "I have more pretense here. To be honest, I have never been interested in doing business."

Pooh!
"Don't believe me, what I said is true. Several companies are now in charge of others, and I rarely interfere."

Wang Zhongjun looked at Gu Bei, trying to see the pretense on his face, but...

Otherwise, how could they succeed!

Just looking at the attitude towards life in this game world, it would be enough for him to practice for eight lifetimes.

"Mr. Gu, I admire you, I admire you."

Gu Bei picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "There is nothing worthy of admiration. The reason why I am interested in the film and television industry is because I am the most familiar with this industry. Now that I am in it, I have to set a goal for myself."

"Then your goal is..."

"Hong Kong is too small, and the mainland is more suitable to be the Hollywood of the East."

What? ?

Wang Zhongjun didn't understand it for a while. After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly felt a sense of awe.

He discovered that Gu Bei was not just talking, but had been doing it.

Spend huge sums of money to shoot commercial blockbusters with national cultural symbols. When you can obviously eat alone, you always cooperate with other companies to share profits.

Comparatively speaking, they are all short-sighted and only focus on petty gains.

Gu Bei is the one with structure.

"Mr. Gu, this is you!"

Wang Zhongjun raised his thumb at Gu Bei.

"Stop saying anything, Mr. Gu, from now on in the circle, I, Lao Wang, will only obey you."

These words are almost effective, but it's just a matter of face, I'm sorry to say it so bluntly.

"Mr. Gu, are you... a little reckless today? Yesterday, people from Guangying mentioned the special fund, which made Mr. Han unhappy. You... I know that you have a good relationship with Mr. Han. But the theater chain... is not something you can touch easily!"

After holding it in for so long, I finally spoke out what was on my mind.

Gu Bei smiled when he heard this: "Mr. Wang, can you really not tell at all?"

Wang Zhongjun was stunned for a moment, and then smiled coyly. How could he not see the strangeness in it, but he was still a little confused in his heart.

"Mr. Gu, please give me some."

"Simple! The market has reached a bottleneck. If the industry wants to continue to develop, it must break the current pattern. However, vested interests will definitely not be able to watch their bowls being robbed. This requires the entire industry to speak out together. Since sooner or later, When someone speaks, I will be the first, and I will be the one to mention..."

"How can one have the reputation of being a good person?"

Uh?
Although this statement is not completely correct, it is similar.

"By the way, I also tied up the big guys to act together. Even if the theater chain is annoyed, they can still do something to avoid blaming everyone."

Ha ha! !
This doesn’t need to be said so clearly.

"Mr. Gu, we have been making trouble together for a long time. How about you, Mr. Han, and the leaders of the radio and television teaming up to act on us?"

Wang Zhongjun finally understood.

During the meeting, he wondered, Gu Bei is not a reckless person! !
What happened this time?
Whether it is film classification review or the opening of theaters, it is a good thing for everyone.

Wang Zhongjun has also been wondering whether domestic theater chains can be like the United States. Even if they cannot be completely privatized, they should at least be open to private capital.

But who dares to mention such a thing?
They can only wait for the higher authorities to adjust their policies before they can follow suit and reap this wave of dividends.

Anyone who wants to stand out is waiting to be roasted on the fire.

When the time comes, treat yourself as a sacrifice and be roasted, and let others pick it up ready-made.

Why bother!
But if this person is Gu Bei...

If you "kidnap" them again and build up the momentum, even if the theaters don't agree, they will use public opinion to directly suppress them.

"Mr. Gu, you finally understand."
