Chapter 601: Huayi goes public, worth four to five billion?
In the future, as one of the young talents born after 1985, Zhao Liying can win the Feitian Award for Outstanding Actress, the first of the three major TV awards, which is inseparable from the fact that she is an experienced actress.
Experiential actors are the most difficult of the three performing actors. The characters presented by actors are more real and touching than those of Method actors and Expressionists.
However, the experiential school also has its disadvantages.
Some actors are likely to sink into their roles and find it difficult to get out.
For example, when Hu Jun and Liu Ye starred in the movie "Lan Yu", they immersed themselves in the characters through experiential methods.
Then, after the filming of the movie was completed, the two of them really saw each other.
It was hard to extricate themselves for a long time.
Therefore, academic actors rarely take the experiential route, in order to avoid the situation of sinking in and being unable to extricate themselves
Non-professional actors are using their own experiences Acting, this is also an experience school, which doesn't hurt.
After listening to Wang Shu's long speech, Zhao Liying's round face was filled with happiness.
But soon she wondered again, Wang Shu was an easy-going person, could he be trying to make her happy?
While she was thinking this, she heard Wang Shu say again: "I am not from a professional background. At first, I just squatted in front of the Beijing studio and played a part-time job."
"As long as you work hard, you will have a chance to get ahead."
This is poisonous chicken soup.
Under normal circumstances, there is no way to get ahead at all.
Even Wang Baoqiang was able to stand out because of his "special type of actor".
But poisonous chicken soup is the best for deceiving people.
Zhao Liying looked at Wang Shu's faint smile and reacted immediately.
Yes!
Director Wang is also from a non-technical background.
So what he said was not coaxing.
But
And...
Didn’t he get the role just because he fell in love with her at the last audition for "Pacific Rim"?
Was he given the role because he also came from a non-professional background?
After auditioning for "Pacific Rim", Zhao Liying received an invitation to star as the fourth female lead in "The Night the Comet Came".
This is pie in the sky!
Pie in the sky?
That’s too ridiculous.
As a result, one of the three major illusions in life occurred.
Wang Shu probably had a crush on her, so he gave the female number four the role.
This is the only reason that can best explain all of this.
As for the reason for the good impression, it is probably because I got it right when I auditioned for "Pacific Rim".
Today
That doesn't seem to be the case.
Wang Shu probably just felt compassion for her because she was a non-professional actor, and then gave her a role.
Realizing this, Zhao Liying suddenly had various emotions in her heart.
There was a trace of embarrassment, a trace of loss, and a trace of inferiority
Seeing that Zhao Liying was silent, Wang Shu thought that the other party was savoring the chicken soup, and then said again: "I I believe that sooner or later, you will become a popular actress.”
Zhao Liying curled her lips at this time and said: "Director Wang, I have heard this many times."
"Huh?" Wang Shu looked startled.
Zhao Liying answered quietly: "Someone has said this in my ears since I debuted, and it has been said for several years."
Wang Shu couldn't help being happy when he heard this, and deliberately teased Said: "It's okay, I'll tell you again."
"." Zhao Liying suddenly felt so irritated after hearing this.
Seeing her aggrieved look, Wang Shu said seriously: "I'm not lying to you. With your attitude towards work, I believe you can become a popular actress one day."
"Even if you have a baby face , can also succeed.”
This last sentence is extremely impactful.
Over the years since her debut, Zhao Liying has been rejected by many directors because of her baby face, and has missed out on many roles.
So much so that she herself had doubts.
Having doubts does not mean giving in.
While having doubts, at the same time refuse to admit defeat.
In the original timeline, if she could get the role of the heroine in "A Thousand Bones of Flowers", she would go to the crew to fight for it with the short film she shot and the biography she wrote.
The crew wanted to make "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" into a popular drama. Seeing that the actress was so dedicated, they believed she could perform well and chose her.
Zhao Liying was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but look at Wang Shu seriously, and asked: "Does Director Wang really think I can succeed with my baby face?"
There have been so many rejections and so many comments about baby-faced women not being able to play heroines. Everyone will have self-doubt, and Zhao Liying is no exception.
Therefore, she needs recognition, especially recognition and affirmation from important people in the industry.
Wang Shu is a great Oscar-winning director. If he confirms it, Zhao Liying will undoubtedly see the light of day again and will be even more confident in the future.
"Of course!" Wang Shu responded with a smile, feeling that this answer was unconvincing, and then added, "I think you also know that actors who are popular in the entertainment industry, in addition to being handsome and beautiful, are usually You also need to be unique.”
“There are countless beautiful actresses with oval faces in the industry.”
“There are very few beautiful actresses with baby faces like you.”
“It can be said that your baby face is what distinguishes those actresses with oval-shaped faces, and makes you better than them. Actresses are more recognizable."
"So, even if your acting skills are a bit poor now, as long as you work hard, you will definitely become a popular actress in the future."
"That's right, I think. Said.”
On October 30, Huayi went public.
On the first day of listing, Huayi's issue price was 28.58 yuan, which skyrocketed at the opening, reaching a maximum of 91.80 yuan, a 221% increase from the issue price.
Overnight, Huayi’s three star shareholders, Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Jizhong and Huang Xiaoming, became billionaires.
Among them, Feng Xiaogang is worth more than 200 million.
This is a huge rock that immediately caused waves in the entertainment industry.
This year, except for Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi, the salary of 5 million is the highest among mainland female stars.
The salary of 6 million is the highest among mainland male stars.
Huang Xiaoming was just a popular niche student who suddenly became a billionaire.
Feng Xiaogang is the most valuable director in the Mainland besides Wang Shu.
For a time, I was very excited.
And his cheerful appearance has also become the headlines of major entertainment sections.
Facing reporters, Feng Xiaogang said excitedly: "I will work in this company to the end, and I will follow Wang Zhongjun to the end."
Following that, he did not forget to promote Huayi's stock: "If there is Huayi here, Brother investors, let me tell you that the shares of Huayi Brothers are very valuable and definitely have investment value.”
The two Huayi brothers, as well as many of their star shareholders, suddenly became the most handsome boys in the industry. .
Among these handsome boys, there is one person who is more dazzling than Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Jizhong, Huang Xiaoming and others.
In the prospectus disclosed by Huayi, there is a celebrity who is not affiliated with Huayi.
This person is none other than Wang Shu.
He owns 500W shares.
According to a rough calculation of 91.8 yuan per share, Wang Shu is worth approximately 460 million.
“Wori, this is a big deal for Wang Shu!” Everyone in Huayi was holding a ceremony. At the celebration banquet, Wang Shu was talked about, and Wang Zhongjun inevitably elaborated on why Wang Shu owned 5 million shares.
After finishing speaking, Zhang Jizhong couldn't help but complain.
Wang Zhongjun saw Feng Xiaogang, Huang Xiaoming, Li Binbin and others looking over, and said solemnly: "He didn't take advantage, but he had a purpose."
"At that time, I really thought that he If you don’t understand this, you’re relying on a bunch of stupid people to make money. The lion opened his mouth a lot."
"Now that I think about it, that's not the case at all."
"It should be said that since his movie "The Wolf of Wall Street" was released, I have been fascinated by it. I knew that wasn’t the case.”
"This kid must know better than anyone else, otherwise he wouldn't be able to make the movie "The Wolf of Wall Street"."
"Although I really don't want to admit it, I have to say that this time it was not his luck, but his luck. It was because we happened to find him to cooperate that he found the opportunity."
After that, he looked at Li Binbin.
Li Binbin kept a smile on her face, no matter what Wang Zhongjun thought, she didn't care.
The company Huayi does not belong to her, and she has indeed taken her career to a higher level through the drama "Travel to Taipei", and the equity she subscribed has not been reduced.
In this process, she belongs to the party that has always made money and never lost money.
If we insist on losing money, it means that there are few people who regret the equity subscription.
If he had subscribed for several million shares instead of 300,000 shares, he would probably be worth hundreds of millions like Wang Shu by now.
Not only did she regret the lack of equity subscription, but she also regretted that she had known Wang Shu was an expert and consulted Wang Shu at that time. By now, he might have millions of shares and be worth hundreds of millions.
In fact, everyone at this celebration banquet made a profit, and no one lost.
However, Wang Shu, who is not Huayi, owns 5 million shares and is worth an estimated four to five billion, which makes many people feel unbalanced.
They think that if they get these shares, everyone's worth will increase a lot.
If you make less money, you will lose money.
Especially when I see Wang Shu making a lot of money, I feel uncomfortable and unbalanced.
Seeing that everyone was thinking the same thing, Mr. Wang Wang Zhonglei then added: "Actually, Enlight Pictures was able to participate in "Pacific Rim" because Wang Changtian and Wang Shu exchanged equity."
"It's not very clear how much was exchanged, but as far as I know, this is indeed the case."
After speaking, he looked at Wang Zhongjun and said: "So, the elder brother is right, this guy can shoot " "The Wolf of Wall Street" movie, he definitely knows it better than anyone else."
"Maybe he only half-understood it before, and then in order to film "The Wolf of Wall Street." "After doing a lot of homework, I understood."
"In other words, it was precisely because he knew a little about this that he was interested in filming "The Wolf of Wall Street"."
He. I didn’t think that Wang Shu understood it very well from the beginning, but that Wang Shu only half understood it. Because he was interested in this aspect, he bought the copyright of "The Wolf of Wall Street".
In order to make this movie well, I did a lot of homework and opened up the two channels of Ren and Du.
It can be said that without the foreshadowing of the movie "The Wolf of Wall Street", it would be unbelievable for Wang Shu, a wild man who never went to college, to make various financial arrangements.
Nowadays, everything is traceable.
When Feng Xiaogang and others heard this, they all took a breath.
Huayi went public, Wang Shu owned 5 million shares, and his net worth jumped to 4.5 billion.
If Wang Shu also owns 5 million shares of RayLight, and when RayLight goes public, its stock will also rise sharply, wouldn't it be possible to be worth 1 billion?
This.
Unacceptable!
Many people in Huayili, including Feng Xiaogang, were unhappy with Wang Shu. When they learned that Wang Shu might be worth one billion in the future, their happy mood suddenly stopped.
"Does Mr. Wang know how much equity Wang Shu owns in Guangwang?" Feng Xiaogang couldn't help but ask.
He was originally so excited that his net worth exceeded 200 million, and he was walking a little giddy. But now he learned that Wang Shu not only had equity in Huayi, but also in Guangguang, and he stopped laughing.
Wang Zhongjun saw everyone looking over, shook his head and said: "I don't know this."
"However, since Wang Shu even owns the equity of Guangguang, it is obvious that he understands this business ”
Huang Xiaoming is there. As he was thinking, he suddenly said: "Mr. Wang, Director Feng, you said that since Director Wang understands this industry, does he have other financial operations besides owning the equity of our Huayi and Guangguang?"
These words are like enlightenment, and a huge rock stirs up thousands of waves.
Everyone here was stunned.
Yes.
Since Wang Shu knows this business.
There is no reason to only own the equity of Huayi and Guangguang?
There must be other financial operations, they just don’t know about it!
Hiss~
I don’t know who took a breath of cold air, which made Feng Xiaogang and others feel very irritable.
Director Feng Da not only has double standards, but is also very narrow-minded.
When he has conflicts with others, he will always remember them in his heart, take revenge when he has the chance, and tolerate it when he doesn't.
And if he offends other people, he will ask others to be generous and not to be fussy.
All in all, quite selfish.
Now that I know that Wang Shu is not only an Oscar director, not only has equity interests in Huayi and Guangwang, but is also likely to have more wealth, I feel extremely irritated and unhappy.
To put it simply, Wang Shu is unhappy.
“Why didn’t you beat me up then?” Zhou Xun called Wang Shu.
"Is this a matter of me giving you a beating? It's because you don't want to renew your contract with Huayi." Wang Shu answered helplessly.
What Zhou Xun said was that she also had the opportunity to subscribe for Huayi's equity last year. Wang Shu also tried to persuade her, but she still missed it.
As for the reason why she does not want to subscribe for Huayi's equity, it is also very simple.
First, last year, Huayi President Wang Zhonglei publicly claimed that "Li Binbin is Huayi's first sister" and "Li Binbin is Huayi's money-grabbing queen", which gave the outside world the impression that Zhou Xunzheng, who also belongs to Huayi, "First Sister" lost.
This made Zhou Xun lose face and became a joke.
Secondly, she has plans to leave Huayi and does not want to renew her contract with Huayi.
Thirdly, as the highest paid actress in Mainland China besides Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi, she is a little rich woman.
She doesn’t understand finance and looks down on Huayi’s equity interests.
Fourth,.
In short, various reasons prompted her not to subscribe for Huayi's equity.
Wang Shu had persuaded her and told her that the income would be doubled several times.
Zhou Xun always focuses on one person who refuses to listen to advice.
The little rich woman has money in her hands and is angry in her heart, so she is willful.
Wang Shu also knew that Zhou Xun was a man who was not short of money.
As long as you are not short of money, you will be happy.
After persuading me several times, I saw that it had no effect, so I stopped persuading him again.
After all, you can't really beat her up and force her to subscribe, right?
Not to mention that the little rich woman is not short of money to begin with, so it doesn’t matter if she misses it.
Anything, just be happy.
For example, in the original timeline, Zhou Xun never had children.
The money she earned couldn’t be used up, so wouldn’t it be left to her relatives in the end?
So what if I subscribe to Huayi’s equity?
For her, it is just a number that cannot be used up and can only be left to relatives.
