Chapter 263: Target: Hollywood!

“This…” Facing everyone’s gaze, even with Hong Dali’s impenetrable thick skin, he almost couldn’t stand it. “Why are all of you looking at me like this…”
“Dali, hehe.” Tang Muxin starting pinching his face again. “This time, ‘The Mascot of Tianjing City’ shall just lower your status and become the symbolic person for this new city. Later, I will ask Uncle Lee to build a statue for you and place it in the center of the city!”
Once she said this, everyone furiously nodded.
Speaking of which, if this Tian Di City really was built and Hong Dali’s statue was placed in the center of the city, just thinking about it already seemed very cool!
“Huh!?” Hong Dali was astonished. “Put my statue in the center of the city?” This was a good idea! Hong Dali excitedly said, “Then, I want an abstractionism one!”
Therefore, this matter was decided…
Li Yuanshou smiled and said, “Using the Young Master’s image as the symbol, I think that will work! Just nice, I know two sculptors. I will look for them once I get back! According to the Young Master’s style, we will definitely build a large statue for you!”
That’s why people said that those into constructions and those into sculpturing normally come together. A normal living quarter would have a few statues to bring up its grade. Therefore, upon mentioning Hong Dali’s statue, he naturally had to make a move when he should!
Now, Hong Dali had become the first mayor of Tian Di City just like that, and the position was self-appointed!
Li Yuanshou continued to introduce. “Now that we have the symbol, next is the administrative management. However, this is not easy to handle.”
“That’s fine, I will just ask my uncle later, hehe.” For others, it was something almost impossible. But for Hong Dali, this wasn’t an issue—with the Bureau Chief backing him, even if he couldn’t really have control over the city, being the mayor in name only would definitely not be a problem!
Li Yuanshou was indeed a 50 plus-year-old experienced man. Also, he was in constructions and did indeed know quite a lot. “After that, there’s also the harbor, cargo transportation, trade processing, tourist development, telecommunications, hydroelectric power, high technology estates, public finance and such. Young Master, you will have to find specialized people to handle this next time, if not, we won’t know how to do them ourselves.”
All of these things were what a city basically needed. No matter how powerful Hong Dali was, he couldn’t get hold of such things himself. Therefore, Li Yuanshou didn’t go into detail. After all, the Nation wouldn’t let any individual control these things, they would definitely send specialized people over.
“Next is transportation.” Li Yuanshou pointed at the map. “Currently, aviation is not needed. Other things such as public transportation, taxis, long-distance buses and such can be done slowly. Those are only needed when there are people living there.”
“As for other things, Young Master doesn’t have to consider about them yet.” Speaking up to this point, Li Yuanshou thought for a while and was suddenly dazed. He said, “Speaking of which… Young Master, it seems like there really isn’t anything to do other than just constructing the buildings.”
A black businessman, he was definitely a big, black businessman!
After going around and around, they returned to the construction of the buildings…
“Yup.” Hong Dali touched his chin and looked at the map, really looking like a statue of a noble person. “Then, let’s start with the living quarters. Regardless of it being useful or not, build an administration building too. Build two or three office buildings, five to eight roads too. Xiaoyi, how much is all of the cost added up?”
“Let me count.” Ling Xiaoyi instantly started to report the account. “If we follow Young Master’s regular style of using the best for everything, if we count five of it, the living quarters will cost 150 million. The administration building will cost 20 million, and four office buildings will cost about 60 million. Building the roads will cost 15 million. The total is… 245 million.”
“Yup, not bad.” In the end, Hong Dali added, “Add in 5 million for the statue to make a round 250 million!”
Brouhaha!
I will be able to spend 200 plus million in one shot, that’s at least 200 plus attribute points! Excellent!
Tang Muxin slapped her forehead. “My God…”
However, other things aside, this project was still not bad. After all, they would be able to earn money from it in the future. Now that the Nation had officially stated that they would support the building of the New Lanxiang School City, although Tang Muxin wasn’t sure of the details, as long as the Nation supported it, it definitely wouldn’t end up doing bad. Just for this New Lanxiang alone, the area there would definitely be able to be developed and draw in people. By that time, with those living quarters assuring that they would have an income and that the land would definitely be his own, she might as well just let Hong Dali play all he wanted…
Hong Dali was happy, and Li Yuanshou was quite happy too.
He managed to get a deal worth 250 million in just a day’s time! That’s 250 million! What’s more, he didn’t have to pay the cost himself!
Therefore, Li Yuanshou beamed with delight and said, “Young Master, when should I start the work?” At this time, he was still slightly agitated. His eyes were squinting and his hands were rubbing against each other. From this appearance, he really looked like the head of states!
“No need to rush.” Regarding when they could start work, Hong Dali naturally couldn’t start right away. At least, he still had to wait for the blueprint from the Bureau Chief. He waved his hand and said, “We will start after the blueprints for my school have been handed down. Remember, hire the best designer. Dali’s product must definitely be high-quality, don’t spoil my reputation! I’m a symbolic person now!”
“Yes, that’s for sure!” Although they didn’t sign a contract, Li Yuanshou wasn’t afraid in the slightest that Hong Dali would renege on their arrangement.
This Young Master had always stayed true to his words!
Now that everything was settled, Hong Dali was a bit tired and instantly prepared to return home. “OK, let’s head back to Chenhui Building first. I’m going to tinker with these stones for fun. Everyone, let’s board the car!”
Unexpectedly, just as they were about to return home, Lao Deming suddenly received a call. In the beginning, he was still quite calm, but very quickly, his face started to change and he shouted into the phone, “What!? What did you say!? Damn it! They are too overboard! Too overboard!!”
By right, someone of his status shouldn’t be so agitated. Therefore, when he shouted these, everyone turned around to look at him. Hong Dali strangely asked, “Director Lao, what happened? Who bullied you?”
After hanging up the phone, Lao Deming walked over with a bitter expression on his face and said, “It’s Hollywood…”
“Hollywood?” Now, everyone was curious too. Even Li Yuanshou didn’t leave and asked, “What did Hollywood do again? Those people keep making changes every two to three days, they are just playing with people when they have nothing to do.”
“It’s regarding their technical support.” Lao Deming gloomily said, “Because Young Master didn’t lend the Black Tortoise to James the other time, they are withdrawing all of their technical personnel in Heavenly State. This matter is a very big case now. Our company is being scolded very furiously by our industry colleagues.”
“Hm?” Previously, Hong Dali didn’t think too much about it. They only failed to borrow the Big Turtle, how big a matter could that be?
But now, hearing Lao Deming say this, he immediately felt that something was amiss.
When James came to borrow Big Turtle, he only offered 2 million USD. By right, it shouldn’t cause such a big sensation. However, Lao Deming said that Hollywood actually withdrew all of their technical support now. Looks like this wasn’t a simple case, then.
“Xinxin, what do you think?” Hong Dali turned around and asked Tang Muxin. At times like this, two heads were better than one.
“This matter definitely isn’t as simple as just borrowing Big Turtle.” Tang Muxin carefully thought for a while and said, “Dali, think about it. By right, even if they couldn’t manage to borrow Big Turtle for their movie, the impact definitely wouldn’t be this big. The western world isn’t really interested in our Black Tortoise, they prefer their winged dragon.”
“Yup, right. Then?” Hong Dali continued to ask.
“Then, I think they were probably planning for the Black Tortoise to play some evil character.” Tang Muxin mumbled, “That means to say, they should be… I reckon that it’s because of Big Turtle’s identity. When James came, he said that he understood what the Black Tortoise represented for the people of Heavenly State.”
“The Black Tortoise? What it represents?” Hong Dali murmured and, suddenly, his eyes lit up. “The reason definitely lies in what Big Turtle represents!”
“Young Master, what do you mean?” Hearing Hong Dali say this, everyone was instantly curious.
By this time, Tang Muxin naturally understood too. She hurriedly explained, “Think about it, since the Black Tortoise has emerged, the fighting spirit of our people has been very high! However, America has always viewed our Nation as their greatest enemy. If we were them, will you be nervous? Therefore, they did this purposely. Their aim was to pull Big Turtle down from its godly altar and become just an ordinary creature! Make a film regarding it, then manipulate the direction of the public’s opinion and slowly influence them. By that time, Big Turtle would be just a big turtle, just an enormous alligator snapping turtle. This way, they can easily bring down the fighting spirit of our people without a single drop of blood being shed!” As she said this, she excitedly hugged Hong Dali’s elbow, smiled and said, “Dali, you really had the foresight for not lending them Big Turtle at that time!”
“Oh…” Hong Dali twitched his mouth. “That’s for sure, how can I possibly just lend Big Turtle away like that!”
By this time, Lao Deming had calmed down too. He nodded in agreement and said, “Yes, that was indeed a fortunate thing! If you really lent Big Turtle to them, you would definitely lose a lot more than what you gained. Young Master, why don’t I open a press conference and explain the situation. This way, everyone won’t be so mindful.”
“That’s up to you.” At this time, Hollywood was thinking about something else. “Since they dare to play, then let’s play with them. Humph, isn’t it just Hollywood!” Saying so, Hong Dali instructed Li Yuanshou, “Build a few more buildings beside my school! At most, I shall just film a few movies to play with them!”
Humph, if he really wanted to go into the film industry, he still had quite a lot of stock in his brain!
Although he didn’t know how to write a script or be a filming director, or to cut the scenes or to produce the movie, he knew how to spend money! He knew how to squander! He had actors!
Previously, he didn’t think too much into this matter. But now, since they were jumping around so much, he should just resolutely trample them to death!
Since he was going to spend money no matter what he did, this time, he should accompany Hollywood and play with them!
“OK, let’s go home now!” Since he had decided, Hong Dali snapped his fingers and said, “Let’s head back first. As for Hollywood, we shall slowly play with them!” Saying so, he got on the car. However, when Tang Muxin and the rest were about to get on too, Lao Deming stopped her. “Miss Tang, can you hear me say something?”
“Hm?” Why did Lao Deming stop me? Tang Muxin strangely asked, “Director Lao, what is it?”
Lao Deming looked around and secretively said, “I have something to tell you. It’s slightly related to the Young Master…”
“Then, you should tell it to Dali, what are you telling me for?” Tang Muxin strangely said.
“Er, it’s like this…” Lao Deming saw Ling Xiaoyi and Li Nianwei curiously joining in as well and said, “In about less than half a years’ time, on the 10th of October, it’ll be the Flange International Films Festival! Young Master has too many things to consider now that he is going to build a school, right? I’m a little embarrassed to trouble him. I was thinking, we should prepare for the festival and give the Young Master a big surprise! After all, the Young Master treats me quite well, I can’t be an ingrate, right?”
