130: Plum Blossom Album
To celebrate his mother's birthday, Hanwen started preparing well in advance.
He not only arranged for Zhang Yadong to personally go to Zijing City to negotiate the Beyond band's performance, but also booked the lobby of the Waldorf Hutong Courtyard Hotel.
At the same time, he sent out invitations to editors, screenwriters, and teachers he knew and had good relationships with.
The company's leaders and executives, good friends, artists under the company, and some educated youths that my mother knew from her hometown.
This includes, but is not limited to, Jiang Wen, Zheng Xiaolong, and Feng Xiaogang from the entertainment industry; Li Xiaoming and Li Gongda from the screenwriting industry; Bai Shurong and Gu Jianping from the publishing industry; Teacher Yu and Hu Xiaoguang from the film academy; and Wang Xiaobo from the cultural field.
Also included were Yao Nulang, Yang Tianmei, and Mao Ning, artists under his own company; as well as other company executives Zhang Yadong, Lu Xiangdong, Zhou Yu and his mother Xia Shuyun, and Leopard Third Master, and many others.
Han Wen even suspended his acting training courses to prepare for his mother's birthday party.
He drove his little yellow buggy, carrying invitations and gifts, and began to personally visit the guests he needed to invite.
Han Wen's polite manners and generous spending pleased those who knew him well, and they readily agreed to attend on time.
Just a few days before Han Qingyan's birthday banquet, Zhang Yadong finally brought good news.
Beyond's management company has signed a contract with him. The day before Han Qingyan's birthday, the four members of the band and Zhang Yadong will fly directly from Haneda Airport in Japan to Beijing to celebrate Han Qingyan's birthday.
The entire flight took about four hours, and each person's round-trip ticket cost a staggering ten thousand yuan. Just the airfare alone would have cost five people fifty thousand yuan.
Because the band Beyond is now very famous, they buy first-class tickets.
Furthermore, after attending Han Qingyan's birthday party, the Beyond band had to rush back to Dongying Island to participate in other programs, so the airfare included the return ticket.
Hanwen really went all out to invite the band Beyond to celebrate his mother's birthday.
However, it doesn't matter, he has money. Moreover, this collaboration can also deepen their relationship.
Beyond's management contract with Japan expires next year. At that time, Hanwen will definitely use his money to poach the entire band.
Of course, this is all on the premise that the Huang family can escape this calamity and survive first.
Without Huang Jiaju, Beyond is like an empty shell without a soul; it's worthless, and Koreans have no interest in it at all.
Han Wen only values Huang Jiaju's talent and ability; at that time, he wouldn't care even if it cost a fortune.
So this time, although he agreed to let Zhang Yadong buy return tickets for the Beyond band, the departure date was postponed considerably.
Because he never intended to let these four people return to Japan on time and smoothly.
That's right. After his mother's birthday party, he's going to detain the four members of the Beyond band. At least, he'll detain them until the end of June or the beginning of July.
He wanted to defy fate and change the destiny of the Huang family.
This time, he was not only trying to make up for his own regrets, but also trying to test the will of God.
If he fails, he will never touch the concept of fate again. If he succeeds, he will then change Wang Xiaobo's fate.
To ensure the success of his plan, Han Wen had his brother-in-law, Zhou Yu, make thorough preparations.
The security system of Yinshan Guard has been activated to ensure not only the safety of the Beyond band members but also the smooth running of the birthday party.
Then, while escorting the Beyond band back to Japan, they would find a way to detain them under some pretext.
Although this would definitely offend Amuse, the talent agency in Japan, Han Wen didn't care. He had long wanted to file a cross-border lawsuit.
Firstly, to test the capabilities of the legal team led by his mother-in-law, Xia Shuyun; and secondly, to enhance the domestic and international standing of his company.
This transnational lawsuit should ideally continue indefinitely, the longer the better. Because as the company grows, Hanwen also needs to enhance his own social standing and influence.
He wanted to hold money in one hand and the law in the other, to crush all those who had designs on him and harbored ill intentions, and not let them have any illusions.
Han Wen also hopes that he can be like Ma Ying-jeou in Shenzhen: low-key, but that doesn't mean he's easy to mess with.
Penguin Empire is known as the "Invincible King of Namsan," and Han Wen also hopes that his company can become the undefeated champion of Dongcheng District in Gyeonghwa City.
When Yao Girl received the invitation and gift from Han Wen, she was really surprised because she didn't expect him to invite her to Han Qingyan's birthday party.
"Young Master Han, can I really go?" Yao Girl said with some worry, "I feel that Chairman Han doesn't like me very much and isn't very welcoming to me."
What if Chairman Han is unhappy if I go? Besides, the time is so short, I haven't even had time to prepare a gift.
"My mom doesn't need any gifts. You just need to go there in person and deliver your heartfelt wishes." Han Wen shook his head and said with a smile, "I specifically reminded them when I invited the guests this time that I don't accept gifts. Small gifts are fine, but I will return any extravagant gifts."
I celebrated Mom's birthday because I wanted her to be happy, not to receive gifts. So, you don't need to worry.
"Young Master Han, hearing you say that, I can finally rest assured." Yao Girl nodded, then suddenly put on a coquettish look and looked at Han Wen: "Young Master Han, you said before that you would support me."
But it's been so long, and you haven't done anything about it. Have you forgotten about it?
"You've suddenly become so famous, what do you need my support for?" Han Wen asked with a happy laugh.
"Yes, I want your full support. You said this to Feifei's face, so you have to keep your word." Yao Girl insisted, "If you're not willing, I'll go find Feifei."
Tell her that we actually slept together in the same bed at the Shangri-La Hotel in Hangzhou.
"Yaoyao, I advise you not to cause trouble. Otherwise, you might not be able to handle it later." Han Wen hated being threatened the most, and immediately got angry.
"Whether I can handle it or not is my own business, don't worry about it." Yao Girl knew Han Wen was powerful, but she wasn't afraid of him.
"Since you put it that way, then I'll grant your wish." Han Wen said menacingly, with an arrogant air: "Didn't you act in 'Three Variations on Plum Blossom'? Fine, I'll perform 'One Variation on Plum Blossom' with you today. I'll let you know the consequences of causing trouble for no reason."
"Fine, come on then." Yao Girl ran towards her room, tempting him as she went: "You think I'm afraid of you? Impossible."
