Chapitre 36: Film and Television Company
Kate, Rose, and Ella spent over ten days at the Alaric Manor, where they enjoyed a delightful holiday. David and Elizabeth treated them as if they were their own daughters, with Elizabeth showing them exceptional care and attention.
Alex was working out in the gym when Ella found him and asked him to come to her room. Upon entering Ella's room, Alex noticed that Rose and Kate were also present. He looked at the three of them with a playful smile and asked, "What have you ladies called your husband for? Not that you're thinking of—"
Kate rolled her eyes at Alex's mischievous expression and retorted, "Naughty Alex, what are you thinking! Rose and Ella have something to discuss with you, something that will greatly benefit your career."
Alex wiped the smile off his face and inquired with a puzzled look, "What exactly is this matter that's been shrouded in such mystery?"
Ella smiled at the bewildered Alex and said, "Alex, Rose and I are planning to establish a company, more specifically, a film and television entertainment company."
Alex had never asked Ella about her business, and hearing that she and Rose were planning to start a film and television entertainment company seemed a bit out of the blue. He blinked a couple of times and asked, "Ella, what exactly is your current company involved in?"
"He doesn't even know what I do and claims to care about me; I think all your words are just empty," Ella pouted.
"Alright, let's not tease Alex anymore. Let's reveal our plan," Rose said with a laugh, seeing Alex's awkwardness.
"Alex, the global Film and Television Entertainment Company in City J is mine. Rose and I have been discussing since the beginning of the year to merge the company under Imperial Holdings, but this entertainment company will be managed entirely by Rose and me. Rose's contract has expired, and in a few days, she will be able to sign with our company, and she will also be one of the major shareholders. With Rose's influence in the entertainment industry, our company will quickly become popular," Ella said excitedly.
After Ella finished speaking, Rose added, "Alex, you've always wanted to enter the film industry. Your Imperial Holdings just needs to inject a substantial amount of capital to gain full control of Ella's and my company. Rose and I will manage it, and with our years of experience in the entertainment industry, we promise not to disappoint you."
Alex pondered, not expecting Imperial Holdings to so easily take control of a film and television entertainment company. Ella and Rose had indeed been of great assistance. Overjoyed, Alex planted a kiss on the cheeks of both Ella and Rose, and said with a smile, "My two capable wives, you've really helped your husband a lot."
"There's no need for thanks, we're yours after all, and so is the company," Ella said with a blush.
"Haha, yes, yes, I adore you all to bits," Alex said with a silly grin.
"Alex, I've also spoken with Director Jude. Our company will invest in his film. I've read the script, and it's exceptionally good. However, it's a fantasy film that's quite costly to make, and other major domestic film companies are hesitant to invest. If we produce and promote this film carefully, we're sure to make a fortune, and we might even be able to compete for the Academy Awards. At that point, our company will be known worldwide," Rose told Alex.
Alex paced back and forth on the floor of the room, each word from Rose filling him with excitement. His ambitions were not confined to the domestic entertainment industry; he wanted to establish a major film company like Warner Bros., MGM, or Universal. Rose and Ella had already helped him take the first step. Alex looked up at Ella and Rose and said, "Yes, your ideas are excellent, and this company will surely have a promising future. However, we should aim even higher and make our company one of the world's leading film companies."
Rose and Ella nodded in unison.
"Alex, Rose and I will return to City J in a few days to handle the merger procedures and inform Director Jude to start the preliminary preparations for the film," Ella said, her hands tightly clasped together, her excitement palpable.
"Alright, leave those matters to my two beloved wives," Alex said with a playful smile.
Kate walked up to Alex and said softly, "Alex, Rose and Ella can help you, but I can't seem to be of any assistance. Do I seem useless to you?"
Alex embraced Kate and said gently, "Kate, just knowing that I love you forever is enough. Don't think anything else."
Alex spent over two hours in Ella's room, and it was during this time that the Alex Film and Television Entertainment Company was born. Three days later, Rose and Ella left City H to return to City J and begin setting up the Alex Film and Television Entertainment Company.
The students of the senior high school also started their classes, and with the college entrance examination approaching, Kate devoted herself entirely to her studies, aiming to enter the best university in the country, Excellence University.
Imperial Holdings subsequently established the Alex Real Estate Company and the Alex Film and Television Entertainment Company. The establishment of these two subsidiaries made Imperial Holdings the leading enterprise in Province G, and Hugh, the general manager, became the target of media interviews.
After the establishment of the Alex Film and Television Entertainment Company, a press conference was immediately held in City B. At the press conference, Ella announced to the media that the company would invest one hundred million US dollars to collaborate with Director Jude on a fantasy blockbuster, starring the diva Rose. This news was like a bombshell that rocked the entire entertainment industry, with extensive coverage on the internet and in newspapers. The Alex Film and Television Entertainment Company instantly became known throughout the entertainment circle. Major domestic film companies felt threatened, as a one hundred million US dollar investment in a single film was something they dared not even consider.
Alex focused all his energy on the underworld, with a fierce battle with the two major gangs in City J about to commence. In the chairman's office of Imperial Holdings, Alex sat in a large swivel chair, smiling as he looked at the three people next to Mark.
"Young master, these are my three former comrades-in-arms. In the army, their specialty was collecting intelligence on the battlefield," Mark said, pointing to the three people next to him.
"You were all elite in the army, and I need talents like you. I won't treat you poorly for working for me," Alex said with a smile, his penetrating gaze also sweeping over the three men.
"When we were in the army, we were elite, but now that we're retired, we're nothing. If it weren't for Alex finding us, we'd still be struggling for a living," one of Mark's comrades said, looking at Alex.
"What's your name?" Alex asked, staring into the eyes of the speaker. This man, with a simple and robust appearance, had caught Alex's attention as soon as he entered the room.
"Alex, my name is Grant," Mark's comrade replied straightforwardly.
"Grant, you and your two comrades will be in charge of training the Shadow Division of the Reaper gang, and you will manage the Shadow Division. You should understand what this division does," Alex said earnestly.
Upon hearing that Alex was entrusting him with a crucial department of the Reaper gang, a warm feeling welled up inside Jiang Wei. Alex's trust in him was deeply touching. Without saying a word, he just nodded vigorously.
Alex stood up, walked over to him, and patted Jiang Wei on the shoulder, saying, "Do a good job, and you will become one of my most relied-upon people, just like Mark."
Mark handed a list to Alex, saying, "Young master, these are the members of the Shadow Division, all secretly selected from the gang. Only a few people know their identities."
Alex took the list and looked at it carefully. After reading it through, he tore the paper into pieces and threw it into the trash can, saying in a deep voice, "The Shadow Division is the gang's top secret. No one is allowed to disclose it."
"Yes," the four people in the office said in unison.
