Chapter 256 Plan Implementation
(How did you get in the last chapter without writing anything? My review)
While I was upset, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and then Wang Zhonglei said The figure of Feng Feng Huo Huo appeared and shouted as soon as he entered the door: "Brother, have you heard?"
"Calling your duties at work~" Wang Zhongjun was not happy.
“Uh~”
Wang Zhonglei's words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't understand what was wrong with his elder brother, why he was so angry.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Wang Zhongjun threw the report on the table.
"Oh, that's the case. There have been rumors on the Internet in the past two days that Zhang Chen may not be able to pass the trial because he offended the General Administration's "Hurricane Rescue"..."
"Huh? News? Is it reliable?" Wang Zhongjun sat up straight.
“I haven’t verified the accuracy of the news, but if someone has a nose and eyes, I guess it’s correct.”
Wang Zhonglei was in high spirits, as if he had forgotten the unpleasantness just now.
Wang Zhongjun’s palace was a little deeper, but he also smiled: "Now it’s fun to watch it. With an investment of 120 million, it can’t be released. I wonder how he will explain to those investors?"
Wang Zhonglei also echoed: "Yes, those guys were so proud before, but now they are probably so panicked. Don't they think they can make money by following Zhang Chen? Now that it's better, they can spit out all they earned before, or else Said, it is you, the eldest brother, who can guarantee the harvest despite droughts and floods..."
"Otherwise, movies are a business, Zhong Lei, you have to learn more~"
Speaking of this, the two brothers Feeling very proud, Zhang Chen guessed right. As soon as they got the share, they sold 50% of the share at double the premium.
At that time, Zhang Chen's project was very popular, and there were so many companies that wanted to invest in it. Even if they didn't make any money, there were a lot of companies trying to get involved.
Not to mention anything else, just for those listed companies, as long as they release the news and participate in Zhang Chen's project, the stock price will not rise. Compared with the profit from film investment, the stock price is the big one. .
"Zhang Chen squirts this and that every day. When I saw him, investors blocked the door. What happened to him, hahaha~"
Wang Zhonglei felt happy when he thought of that scene.
I have been unhappy with Xingchen Entertainment for a long time.
A small company that has been established for a year has actually exceeded 100 million in a row. How come it is so new?
For such a company, it must be dealt with carefully when seizing the opportunity.
"By the way, when Star Entertainment is in dire straits, you go and contact their writing team. If nothing else, their writing team does have two skills. Find a way to poach them..."
My elder brother Wang Zhongjun is obviously more business-savvy. He can see through the core assets of Xingchen Entertainment at a glance. This is the basis for preparing to cut off the roots of Xingchen Entertainment.
“Don’t worry, brother, I’ve already arranged for someone to do it~”
Wang Zhongjun was about to scold him for calling his brother again, but then he thought about it, his brother was very proactive this time and thought of everything in front of him. He softened his heart and did not say the scolding words.
"By the way, how was the discussion between Mr. Zhou and Huang Xiaoming?" Wang Zhonglei quickly calmed down. Getting carried away was a taboo.
"Don't worry, both aspects are going smoothly. I have already made an agreement with Mr. Zhou. When she comes over, I will hold a signing ceremony for her and officially announce her departure from Rong Xinda and join Huayi.
Huang Xiaoming basically agreed. He is currently filming "The Condor" in Jiuzhaigou, and he has agreed to sign the contract when he comes back."
"That's good."
The good news came one after another, and the two brothers sat on the sofa happily.
With two stars, Huang Xiaoming and Zhou Gongzi, a male and a female, the problem of Huayi having no one available after Wang Jinghua left can be solved in a short time.
Especially Huang Xiaoming. Huang Xiaoming was able to successfully join Huayi thanks to his role in "Hurricane Rescue".
Wang Zhonglei just mentioned it casually at that time, but he didn't expect Zhang Chen to agree. Huang Xiaoming owed him a favor.
But who would have thought that "Hurricane Rescue" would not be released in the end, which is equivalent to them signing Huang Xiaoming at no cost.
Thinking of this, Wang Zhonglei felt proud. He cut a cigar and handed it to his brother, then cut one himself and started puffing away.
......
Star Entertainment
Chen Xi is reporting on the progress of the matter: "Currently on the Internet, in addition to our own navy, Chengtian, New Picture and Huayi The hired trolls are also hyping up things that "Hurricane Rescue" cannot pass the review, and they are very clever in making up the news. If I were not an insider, I would probably believe it."
Chen Xi said. I couldn't help but laugh out loud, and other people in the office also smiled.
"In addition, someone in the screenwriting team reported to me that someone has contacted them and wants to recruit them with high salary. Currently, three people have encountered a similar situation. It is not ruled out that others may also have the same situation..."
" Well, let’s not act rashly in this regard. It’s useless for us to keep those who can be poached.”
Zhang Chen is very confident in this aspect, because Xingchen Entertainment treats screenwriters really well.
Just giving authorship rights is something other companies cannot do.
In the screenwriting profession, it is actually not difficult to make a living. Being a shooter, working as a scriptwriter, specializing in rewriting plays for celebrities, there are many places where you can find food.
Although his status is low, he is a member of the entertainment industry after all, and his income is definitely much more than that of other industries. To be honest, it is only compared to other professions in the entertainment industry.
But it is not easy to support yourself, but it is not easy to become famous.
In the entire circle, there are no more than 10 well-known screenwriters in movies and TV series combined.
Zhang Chen is willing to give them the right to sign, just to give them the opportunity to become famous. If there are still people who can't resist the temptation, then Zhang Chen has nothing to miss.
It’s not like I can’t live without anyone.
Throughout the meeting, Chen Xi said a lot. The most critical thing about this matter is to be quick. We must build momentum in a short time to make the Wang brothers believe that "Hurricane Rescue" is completely over, so that they can take action.
Once it is delayed for too long, the news will definitely leak out. If nothing else, as long as the General Administration stands up and clarifies, the matter will not proceed.
At the end of the meeting, Zhang Chen asked: "Have you made contact with Lao Li?"
"We have made contact."
"Okay, let him get started. .”
...
That afternoon, Wang Zhonglei received a call from Wang Jinghua.
After hanging up the phone, he went straight to Wang Zhongjun's office.
"Brother, Wang Jinghua called me just now and said that she would come over with the investor behind her, the one named Li..."
"What are you doing here?"
"She said that the person surnamed Li is interested in our share of "Rescue"~"
"At this time, is there anyone who is interested in "Rescue"? Aren't you afraid of getting it in your hands?" "I don't know. , I don’t understand what they think.”
“Well, let’s wait and see what happens.”
An hour later, Wang Jinghua took the old man. Li visited Huayi Brothers.
Lao Li is now considered one of the shareholders of Shijiu Culture and the financial backer behind Wang Jinghua.
But he didn’t know the Wang brothers from Huayi, so he asked Wang Jinghua to help introduce them.
Wang Jinghua had been very unhappy with the Wang brothers because of leaving Huayi, but after Zhang Chen reconciled, the matter had already been resolved.
"Hello, Mr. Wang~"
"Mr. Li, I have admired you for a long time and finally met today~"
Mr. and Mrs. Wang were very enthusiastic when they met with Lao Li. They also wanted to see what kind of medicine Lao Li sold in his gourd?
“I suddenly came to the door, disturbing you two~”
Old Li smiled. He was still wearing the same simple outfit, and he didn’t look as glamorous as the people in the circle.
But he is very confident. Now the richest man, Li, is swaying in the stock market. To be honest, the money in the entertainment industry has long been ignored, and Lao Li is left to his own devices.
No matter how much he loses, he can cover it.
"No, Mr. Li is so polite."
The two led Lao Li to the reception room, where they sat and chatted. Lao Li also enjoyed a handful of cigars that Mr. Wang loved.
The feeling of puffing away the clouds is a bit like a Shanghai beach tycoon.
“To be honest, I took the liberty of visiting today because I was interested in Huayi Brothers’ share of “Hurricane Rescue”. I heard that Huayi Brothers has a share of 10 million yuan and I want to buy it. ..."
Lao Li went straight to the topic without much chatter.
The big and small kings looked at each other, a hint of cunning flashed deep in their eyes, and everyone understood that this was a fat sheep.
But then this cunning was replaced by helplessness - Wang Jinghua was still beside him. With Wang Jinghua here, they would definitely not allow them to kill Lao Li.
You know, Lao Li is the investor behind Shijiu Culture, and Wang Jinghua must be with him.
I’m afraid that’s what I meant when I followed you here today.
“To be honest, we only have 5 million in hand now, and the rest has been given to others.”
"Only 5 million?" Lao Li looked a little too little.
"Yes, there is only 5 million. Do you want Mr. Li?"
"Yes."
"How much can Mr. Li pay?"
"How about 3 million?"
The figures reported by Lao Li shocked the two of them. Are you kidding? For a share of 5 million, you only gave 3 million, and you lost 2 million in the end.
“That’s not how business works…” Wang Zhonglei refused.
"How much does Mr. Wang want?"
"Ten million, this is the share of "Hurricane Rescue", a blockbuster with an investment of 120 million."
Wang Zhonglei Looks very much like the big bad wolf.
Lao Li smiled, very honestly.
I don’t know why, Wang Jinghua didn’t say anything, but Old Li said: "Xiao Wang doesn’t think that we don’t know about the rumors outside, right?"
Wang Zhonglei felt a shiver in his heart. It turned out that The other party knew it, but did he know why he still wanted to buy a share of "Hurricane"?
Lao Li continued: "Boss, Mr. Wang, I come here with sincerity. If you don't sell this share to me, no one else will be interested. It can only rot in your hands. How about it?" Sell it to me cheaper, and you two can reduce some losses..."
The two kings were speechless for a moment, and they couldn't understand what Lao Li was playing.
Lao Li didn't say anything and just looked at them quietly. Wang Jinghua seemed to have made up his mind not to speak.
The atmosphere was a little cold for a while. Seeing that the two kings did not respond, Lao Li stood up with a smile: "It's okay. Business cannot be done without righteousness. I will disturb you two today. I will ask other people. I heard that the light He Taihe Maitian also has a share of 10 million..."
It's a very bad way of retreating, but it is very effective.
Seeing that Lao Li was about to leave, Wang Zhonglei quickly stopped him: "Hey, Mr. Li, that's not what I meant, but after all, it is a multi-million business, so you have to allow us two brothers to discuss it..."< br>
"Okay, you two can discuss it, as long as you can give me an answer." Lao Li sat back on the sofa and crossed his legs.
Wang brothers, you look at me and I look at you, exchanging glances with each other. Finally, Wang Zhonglei couldn't help but asked: "Mr. Li, can you tell me the truth? Since you know that this movie is designated to lose money, why do you still have to pay for it?" "This share?"
Old Li laughed: "I won't hide it from you. Since the establishment of Haixin Film and Television, except for making some money from Director Zhang's movies, everything we invested in has been a mess. < br>
If the boss behind me asked, it would be difficult for me to explain.
If possible, of course we would still like to join Director Zhang Chen, but Director Zhang only works with big companies. , we can’t get a share, isn’t it better to just add icing on the cake than to provide help in times of need?
Director Zhang’s “Hurricane Rescue” may have lost money this time, but next time it won’t be guaranteed, we will make money. We will just do it for ourselves. Buy a ticket, do you two Mr. Wang understand? ”
"I understand, Mr. Li still has the courage."
The Wang brothers finally understood that Lao Li was planning to invest emotionally.
Haixin Films invested in you even though it knew it would lose money, so why don’t you take us to play in your next movie?
This is not difficult to understand. In fact, everyone in the circle is similar. They had the same idea towards Feng Xiaogang before.
Use money to cultivate relationships!
But, are you so sure that Zhang Chen still has a chance to make a comeback?
You have squandered 120 million and still want to make a comeback?
On the surface, the Wang brothers admired him, but in fact they scorned him.
You deserve it for not making money. With your eyesight, you can’t even keep up with the hot shit.
“Mr. Wang, have you thought about it?”
