Reborn in the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the 1980s

The next day, at Yuanlun Club.

Located on the top floor of a high-end clubhouse in a bustling area, stepping out of the elevator reveals an extremely luxurious décor. The tranquil atmosphere within the clubhouse seems to transport one away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

The air was filled with the pleasant scent of herbs and perfumes.

Hu Xiaoxiao wore a black fitted dress underneath a white coat, and her flowing short hair was styled in a neat way.

She led Dong Peiyu over, and the club staff immediately greeted them warmly, "Hello, Ms. Hu, Mr. Huang has been waiting for a long time."

Being famous has its advantages. Your face is your business card. You don't need to register or give your name. As soon as the staff sees you, they know who you're looking for and who's waiting for you.

Following the staff to the elegant VIP area, Hu Xiaoxiao met her future business partner, Huang Yuliang.

He wore a dark blue bespoke suit, the exquisite design making him appear elegant, composed, mature, and poised. He sat by the floor-to-ceiling window, reading a magazine, like an elegant gentleman in a castle garden.

A staff member stepped forward, bent down, and said a few words to Huang Yuliang. Huang Yuliang looked up from the magazine and gazed at Hu Xiaoxiao.

Hu Xiaoxiao also looked over with a natural and generous air, sizing him up.

He was much younger than she had imagined, not yet thirty, with a refined demeanor. Exquisitely crafted pure titanium glasses, like works of art, spanned his high nose bridge, exuding an intellectual charm.

Beneath the clearly defined brow bone, a pair of eyes are as deep as the sea, looking at people with a calm yet mysterious expression.

Huang Yuliang stood up, his tall figure making the room seem suddenly much narrower.

He took two steps forward, extended his hand to Hu Xiaoxiao, and said in a deep and powerful voice, "Hello, Miss Hu."

"Hello, Mr. Huang." Hu Xiaoxiao shook hands with him; his palm was thick and warm. "It's a pleasure to meet you."

Facing Hu Xiaoxiao's smiling, beautiful eyes, Huang Yuliang's sharply defined face also smiled. He politely gestured to the seat next to him and said, "It is also an honor to meet Miss Hu. Please sit down."

After Hu Xiaoxiao sat down, her seat was directly facing Huang Yuliang. Behind him was a glass wall, outside of which were blue skies, white clouds, towering buildings, and bustling traffic.

Since Dong Peiyu and Huang Yuliang had previously discussed the general content of their cooperation, this time the two bosses skipped some tedious and useless topics and went straight to the essential issues.

For example, how to cooperate, how to distribute profits, etc.

Both of them had a clear goal: Hu Xiaoxiao wanted to find a partner to quickly realize her career plans.

Huang Yuliang wants to open up the film market, gain a foothold, and reap the benefits of the film industry as quickly as possible.

Regarding the distribution of profits, Hu Xiaoxiao was only willing to share the box office revenue; her other commercial interests remained hers personally.

Huang Yuliang's gaze was sharp, but it was easily overlooked because of his glasses. "I can agree to Ms. Hu's condition, on the condition that you bring out a few commercially valuable new talents for the company every year."

“No problem, I can agree to Huang Sheng’s condition,” Hu Xiaoxiao said.

She's the boss, and she benefits from mentoring newcomers. The commercial value of these newcomers directly impacts how much she earns.

Before she had a company, she was willing to train newcomers for free. Now that she has her own company and her own employees, why wouldn't she train them? Even if Huang Yuliang doesn't allow it, she will still sign newcomers to train, since it concerns her income.

After that was settled, the main issue to discuss was equity. Hu Xiaoxiao wanted 50% of the company's shares. Huang Yuliang naturally refused, so Hu Xiaoxiao simply offered money as leverage, investing with cash, showing off her considerable wealth.

Huang Yuliang raised his thick, sharp eyebrows slightly as he looked at Hu Xiaoxiao in front of him.

A ray of sunlight streamed in through the glass window, illuminating Hu Xiaoxiao's side. In the bright sunlight, she exuded confidence and charisma. A pair of large earrings swayed slightly as she spoke, making her appear both lively and energetic.

Every gesture and glance exudes the aura of a superstar.

Huang Yuliang tapped his well-defined fingers unconsciously on the armrest of his chair. After weighing the pros and cons, he stood up, straightened his well-fitting suit, and then extended his hand to Hu Xiaoxiao: "Pleasure doing business with you."

Hu Xiaoxiao's smile blossomed like a flower. She stood up and shook Huang Yuliang's thick, warm hand again: "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you."

Huang Yuliang said frankly, "To be honest, I have a bad temper, so I hope Miss Hu will be more tolerant of me in the future."

Hu Xiaoxiao said with a smile, "It's okay, I have a very good temper. People who know me know that I'm the easiest person to talk to."

Upon hearing this, Dong Peiyu looked up at Hu Xiaoxiao, then quickly lowered her head before Huang Yuliang noticed.

"That would be perfect." Huang Yuliang was satisfied, and his eyebrows and eyes relaxed a lot. Naturally, he didn't notice Dong Peiyu's gaze.

After the cooperation was agreed upon, Hu Xiaoxiao and Huang Yuliang, both of whom are efficient people, quickly began to start other work.

Shengshi Film Company has changed its name to Shengshi Entertainment, indicating that after Hu Xiaoxiao and Huang Yuliang joined forces, their ambitions have expanded beyond just making movies; their business plans are broader. In addition to films, they will also be involved in more comprehensive entertainment businesses such as music, television dramas, and artist training.

Huang Yuliang introduced the heads of various departments to Hu Xiaoxiao, "This is Wei Fu, the head of the development department, and Rong Bingcheng, the creative director; these are Chen Zhaoguang, the executive producer of the production department, Duan Tianya, the director of the directing department, and Yuan Jiaqiang, the distribution manager of the distribution and marketing department..."

Some of these managers were recruited by Huang Yuliang after he came to Baogang, while others came with him from Taiwan. Before he arrived, he had poached most of the senior executives from a film company in Taiwan.

Hu Xiaoxiao met and got to know them all, and her subordinates also joined the company. Screenwriter Liang Jiafeng joined the screenwriting department as the chief screenwriter, assistant Ye Zhini joined the administrative department, and agent Dong Peiyu joined the agent department. In addition to being Hu Xiaoxiao's agent, she also served as the manager of the agent department.

When the company shares were being exchanged, Hu Xiaoxiao, as she had previously promised, gave five percent of her shares to Dong Peiyu.

In other words, Dong Peiyu is also one of the shareholders of Shengshi Entertainment Company.

Early in the morning, Hu Xiaoxiao arrived at Shengshi Entertainment Company to attend an important meeting that day.

"Sister Xiao! Good morning!"

Good morning, Sister Xiao!

From the moment Hu Xiaoxiao entered Shengshi Entertainment, everyone who saw her along the way greeted her.

Hearing everyone call her "Sister Xiao," Hu Xiaoxiao felt extremely pleased. "Good morning, everyone."

Xiao Jie's voice sounds much more pleasant than Miss Hu's.

From then on, she was also considered an older sister.
