Chapter 246 - Super Fierce Movie

"So you bluffed Ad Khan with 500 million dollars?"

Inside the luxurious sitting compartment of the stretch Lincoln, Ecks held a glass of red wine in his hand. The car hardly felt any shaking while traveling, but the red wine in Ecks' glass kept shaking.

From the pouring of this glass of red wine, Eckles wrist has been shaking, watching the red wine in the cup swirling, it seems that this matter brings him fun to far beyond the purchase of the pleasure of wine tasting. Ecks hadn't been in the habit of doing this before, but today he had to find something to distract him, otherwise his eyes would always be glancing across the room.

From the moment he got on the bus, Lin Mingyang, who was sitting opposite of Eckles, had been constantly leaning over towards Kate Beckinsale's side. Although the relationship between the two was not a secret in Eckles' eyes, but being so intimate in front of this "outsider" still made the reserved Kate a little uncomfortable at first.

Lin Mingyang did not care about this, he continued to use language to tease Kate, not the slightest bit of Eckles this "light bulb" in the eyes. Under his skillful attack, he finally succeeded in half embracing Kate into his arms, which was already the limit Kate could accept under the current circumstances.

If it was a two-person date between Lin Mingyang and Kate, there naturally wouldn't be an eyesore like Ecks in the car. Today was the day of the premiere of Sky Dragon Troopers, and the distributor, MGM Studios, was holding a grand premiere at the Chinese Theater in Los Angeles, which was why there was a situation where Eckles, Lin Mingyang, and Kate were riding in the same car.

As the star of the movie, Kate naturally dressed up carefully when she came out today, a beautiful dress naturally can not be missing, and she even deliberately picked a white slant-shoulder long gown today.

I have to say that Kate in the selection of dresses did spend some effort, the upper body of this dress is close to this part of the black lace material, and a white half-shoulder corset to cover the most attractive part of Kate's upper body, but will be a circle of the waist through the lace to show out vaguely. Floor-length dress will Kate slender legs deep wrapped in it, just shoulder half exposed, no deep V legs, but interpreted a chic sexy temptation, with Kate elegant temperament, the whole person looks elegant and sexy.

Rubbing Kate's smooth fragrant shoulders, Lin Mingyang's mind was not at all on the chat with Ecks, if not for Ecks constantly coughing on the side, Kate embarrassedly pushed him, it is estimated that at this moment, he is still immersed in the godly gaze with Kate.

Returning to his senses, Lin Ming Yang didn't have the slightest bit of apology on his face, and asked with a big grin, "Where were we talking about just now?"

Ecks helplessly reminded, "Half a billion dollars!"

"Oh, I remember!" Lin Mingyang gently pressed his head with the hand that was leaning on the back of the sofa, "I told Ad Khan that the investment in this movie would probably exceed 500 million dollars, and after he made sure that I wasn't joking, he immediately took me to his office, where we basically finalized the framework of this collaboration!"

"Not to mention 500 million dollars, the funds that MGM can utilize on their account right now does not exceed 100 million dollars!" Ecks caught the opportunity and without hesitation threw a pot of cold water on Lin Ming Yang.

"Is this one getting a new movie in theaters soon?" The indifferent expression on Lin Ming Yang's face made Ecks hate his teeth, but Ecks had nothing to say, "The cooperation with Blizzard has only just begun, they're not even in a hurry, we don't have to show too much enthusiasm, it's estimated that the movie's preparations will still have to mount for a while, and the company's funds should be a lot wider at that time."

Ecks hummed softly from his nostrils, "Don't be too happy too early, what if 'Sky Dragon Troopers' doesn't end up being as ideal at the box office as you expected?"

"There's our great beauty Kate..." said Lin Ming Yang, glancing towards Kate who was half leaning on his arms, the other party gave him a pouting yet flirtatious glare.

Lin Ming Yang laughed, then turned his head to look at Eckles, "With the addition of Al Pacino and I, is there a stronger cast than this in the most recent Hollywood movies that have been released?"

It was said that Lin Ming Yang was arrogant, but he was actually being modest by saying so now, in fact, in this year's Hollywood blockbusters, an all-star cast consisting of young and old movie stars on the same team, with temperamental beauties to back them up was not really common. Whether it is Lin Mingyang himself, or Al Pacino, are Hollywood movie gold standard, as long as and any one of them in the relationship, a movie box office will have a practical guarantee.

Lin Mingyang for young fans of the appeal is beyond doubt, and Al Pacino is a large number of middle-aged fans, coupled with the attraction of the Kate this big beauty for the male audience, but all those who like to watch the movie, can find their favorite role in the "Dragon Squad", coupled with the film's overwhelming publicity campaign, all of these are the source of confidence that Lin Mingyang can sit in a fishing boat at the moment.

"Our take on the Playboy Group will soon commence, how are you going to implement your remodeling plan after completing your holdings?"

In front of Kate, Ecks unkindly brought up the issue of merging and acquiring Playboy. Talking about a colorful - erotic magazine in front of Kate was obviously a bit out of place, but Ecks' reasoning was incomparably good, discussing this issue in the name of business, even Lin Ming Yang could only hopelessly take this one on with a stiff upper lip.

"So all the rumors in the newspaper are true?" Kate looked at Lin Ming Yang with unbelievable eyes, during this period of time she went back to the UK, the Playboy change of ownership event that was being speculated by the media she had only heard about it a little bit, even though this matter and Lin Ming Yang were involved together, but she thought that everything was a rumor so she didn't pay too much attention to it, and now that Ecks confirmed this matter in person, she was still surprised.

Lin Ming Yang explained somewhat awkwardly, "This is indeed true... Hefner took the initiative to approach me, we had a serious talk, MGM Studios needs to keep growing in strength, and acquiring the Playboy Group is a good choice."

"But..." said Kate with a look of hesitation, it would definitely take a process to get her to accept for this matter.

"That's right, Playboy is a sex - erotic magazine, but the Playboy Group is a very good enterprise, and some of its subordinate industrial sectors are very much needed by us at this stage... but you can rest assured that I'm not Hugh Hefner."

Those previous reasons Kate didn't care about, but Lin Ming Yang's final promise made her feel a pang of peace, for that founder of Playboy, Kate didn't have any particular ill feelings, but definitely couldn't talk about liking him.

After pacifying Kate, Lin Ming Yang further stated his intentions: ''After MGM's merger and acquisition, Playboy's style and positioning will definitely have to be changed...I don't mean turning it into a women's magazine, but rather letting it avoid vulgarity as much as possible, and at the same time, I'm going to launch a magazine dedicated to female readers, and I've already thought of a name. have already thought of, it'll be called 'Shibari Girl'."

"You're going to put some pictures of fierce men on it?" Ecks cozily took a sip of red wine, then smacked his lips and said in a half-joking tone, "That sounds like a really good idea... In order to open up the sales of the magazine, how about I suggest that we use a picture of your *** on the cover?"

Lin Ming Yang himself didn't really care, when other male celebrities were as famous as he was, who didn't have a few **photos. Of course, taking into account the feelings of Kate beside him, Lin Mingyang still shook his head resolutely and declined this "goodwill" of Eckles.
