Chapter 504 11 Annual Meeting
On January 10, Beijing experienced its third snowfall of the winter.
A red banner was hung above the revolving door in the lobby on the first floor of the Morning Light Building.
"Chenxi Group 2011 Annual Meeting and Spring Festival Gala".
A row of flower baskets was placed on each side of the reception desk, with light pink lilies and deep red roses arranged alternately, filling the entire lobby with fragrance.
At 3 p.m., the door to the multi-functional hall was pushed open from the inside.
The administrative staff have been working inside all day.
The LED screen directly above the stage was playing a montage of Chenxi's projects this year. Twenty-eight round tables were set up below the stage, covered with dark red tablecloths, with two bottles of Moutai and a bottle of juice on each table.
People began to sign in and enter.
The number of attendees this year was significantly lower than in previous years.
Because some artists and directors are currently in the critical phase of their projects.
For example, the crew of "Detective Chinatown".
Ning Hao, Wang Baoqiang, Zhu Yilong, Huang Bo, and Lei Jiayin are already in Thailand. We can't ask them to go back to China just for an annual meeting.
It's worth mentioning that Zhu Yilong is extremely busy this year.
She had just finished filming "Nirvana in Fire" in August when she immediately joined the cast of "Love O2O". After filming "Love O2O" wrapped up in December, she was taken away by Ning Hao to Thailand to film "Detective Chinatown".
Despite being a newcomer who has only been with the company for a little over a year, he has more business to handle than Deng Chao.
The cast and crew of "Joy of Life" also didn't come; filming for "Joy of Life" just started last month.
Zhang Ruoyun, Li Dabai, Zhang Tianai, Huang Mengying, Li Chun, Jin Chen, and Jiang Yan have all joined the cast.
Both production teams had only been filming for less than a month and were in a crucial period of adjustment, so Fu Yibai didn't make them go back and forth.
Several other artists are currently on set, but Fu Yibai hasn't asked them to come back.
This year's Dawn Annual Meeting was different from previous years; there was no red carpet, no live broadcast cameras, and no invited partners.
It was more like a family dinner.
At 4:30 p.m., most of the twenty-eight round tables in the multi-functional hall were already occupied.
"Mr. Fu."
Deng Chao squeezed through the crowd, followed by Sun Li.
He was wearing a dark gray fitted sweater, the fabric clearly outlining the muscle lines of his shoulders and chest, and he looked noticeably more muscular than last year.
Fu Yibai looked him up and down, then patted him on the shoulder.
"You've trained well and gotten a lot stronger."
Deng Chao grinned and struck a side pose like a bodybuilder.
"Of course, I've been practicing for over two months."
My figure is no worse than Rundong's, right?
"When we film 'Running Man' next year, I'll be able to challenge Rundong to a one-on-one match."
"Good luck, I support you."
Sun Li smiled and poked Deng Chao in the waist.
"Alright, stop showing off, there are still so many people here."
"Aren't you ashamed?"
"What's so shameful about it? They're all our own people."
"Alright, Sister Li is right. Stop showing off and take a seat."
Fu Yibai patted Deng Chao's arm and walked towards the main table.
Deng Chao put away his makeup and pulled Sun Li toward the exclusive area for Chenxi artists.
At 5:00 PM sharp, the annual meeting officially began.
Zhao Qi stood on the stage, holding a microphone, and said a few opening remarks.
"This year marks the eighth anniversary of the founding of Dawn."
Eight years ago, we started from a small studio, and now Chenxi has grown into a comprehensive cultural industry group covering film and television production, artist management, cinema chains, music, games, technology, and investment.
Last year, our total revenue exceeded 40 billion, and everyone here is a creator of this achievement.
Mr. Fu said that tonight there wouldn't be a long summary report, just a family dinner.
Therefore, that concludes my remarks.
The audience erupted in laughter and applause.
Fu Yibai stood up from the main table and took the microphone from Zhao Qi. He stood at the edge of the stage, not in the center.
"Mr. Zhao has said everything he needed to say, I'll just add one more thing."
He raised the wine glass in his hand.
Thank you everyone. See you next year.
After saying that, he drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
The atmosphere gradually relaxed amidst the alcohol and laughter.
The artists, holding wine glasses, moved between tables, offering toasts.
At 8:30 p.m., the annual party was drawing to a close amidst the lively atmosphere.
Yang Mi and Tang Yan walked over from the crowd. Yang Mi was wearing a beige turtleneck sweater, and Tang Yan was wearing a light blue knitted sweater. Both of them were carrying coats.
"Yi Bai, let's go together."
Qin Lan and Guo Zhenni also came over together.
When are you leaving?
Want to come together?
Fu Yibai glanced at the time and nodded.
"Okay, let's go back."
It was almost ten o'clock when the car turned into the gate of the villa area in the capital.
When Zhang Xinyu parked her car in front of the villa where Yang Rong and Liu Yan lived, all the windows in the building were dark.
"Rongrong and the others are all asleep."
Qin Lan peeked out from the back row at the dark window.
"Go next door, don't wake the child."
Fu Yibai pushed open the car door, and the snow foam, carried by the wind, hit his face, bringing a clean, cold feeling.
Yang Mi crawled out from the back row and shivered as she was hit by the cold wind.
"It's so cold."
Tang Yan followed from behind and zipped up her jacket to her chin.
Guo Zhenni held Qin Lan with one arm and Tang Yan with the other.
Fu Yibai pushed open the door to the villa next door, and warm air poured out from the crack in the door.
"Come in quickly."
Upon entering the villa, the women pulled Fu Yibai upstairs to the bedroom.
They hadn't been intimate for so long, and tonight they finally had some time, so they couldn't care less about being reserved.
The madness and passion of that night continued until the next morning.
Fu Yibai was "exploited" by them in turn, and finally collapsed on the large bed in the master bedroom, completely exhausted.
