Chapter 744 Picking up Sesame Seeds and Losing Watermelons! New Variety Show Project! Another Traffic Source?

LeTV Pictures, in the chairman's office.

Looking at the equity transfer contract handed over by Zhang Zhao, Zhang Yimou suddenly felt that the script of "The Great Wall" in his hand was so "high-quality."

Even if he does not have the right to delete the script, even if the director himself has no autonomy in the crew, even if he may mess up the project after taking it on...

But all of this is not worth mentioning in the face of the benefits that are about to be obtained.

"Yimou, as long as you are willing to take on the "Great Wall" project, this equity transfer agreement can be signed now, and the price you need to pay is the company's lowest allocation price..."

Listening to Zhang Zhao's words, Zhang Yimou couldn't hide his heartbeat.

You know, with the listing of Huayi, a group of actors there have successfully become capital, and now each of them has a net worth of over 100 million.

Judging from the current situation of LeTV Pictures, once listed, the market value will definitely not be less than that of Huayi.

As long as he signs this equity transfer agreement and waits for the company to go public, he can successfully have a net worth of hundreds of millions!

Thinking of this, Zhang Yimou felt inexplicably emotional.

Thinking back to the beginning, he and Zhang Weiping had been working together for 16 years, but they were not as much as he made in one year when he came to LeTV.

Sure enough, people still have to go out for a walk in order to gain greater gains!

Zhang Zhao, who was sitting opposite, was still chattering: "Yimou, think about it, as long as you agree to this condition, after getting this share, just wait for LeTV to go public, and your net worth will be at least over 100 million, or even over 1 billion. It’s not a problem either…”

Zhang Yimou nodded slightly, because judging from the information he learned, what Zhang Zhao said was not a lie.

And what reason did he have to refuse such benefits that could be easily obtained?

"Mr. Zhang, I took over the project "The Great Wall"."

As soon as these words came to the ground, Zhang Zhao, who was sitting opposite, suddenly beamed with joy, and his heart dropped completely.

As long as Zhang Yimou is willing to take over, it not only means that LeTV can enjoy the share, but also can take this opportunity to get the investment share and even part of the distribution business!

At the same time, LeTV Pictures can also smoothly catch a ride to Hollywood and open up new territories and new horizons...

The most important thing is that with this popularity, the overall valuation of LeTV Pictures and the stock price of parent company LeTV will also usher in a wave of improvement!

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhao couldn't hide his excitement.

"Okay, let's find a lawyer now to finalize this agreement, and then I'll contact China Film to arrange other follow-up work."

"OK."

Zhang Yimou stood up and walked out of the office.

Zhang Zhao pushed open the door and walked forward in long strides, with a rather high-spirited attitude.

At the same time, he couldn't help complaining about Chen Fei in his heart: "What on earth does this person think? He is still unwilling to take on such a good project? Just guarding his own three-thirds of an acre of land?

Although "Operation Mekong" is a main theme movie, can it make as much money as a big project like "The Great Wall"? It’s like picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelon. "

…

After the National Day, the popularity of the film industry dropped a bit again.

Correspondingly, the daily new box office of "Detective Chinatown" has also fallen a lot.

Although the box office of several other movies also experienced a sudden drop, many film and television production companies seemed not to notice it and just stared at Feiyue Film and Television.

Seeing the box office of "Detective Chinatown" declining, a group of people cheered as if celebrating the New Year, not knowing why they were happy.

But soon, they were no longer happy.

Because the second episode of the first season of "Running Man" was released on Blueberry Channel, and once again set the number one rating in the same period!

When the ratings data of 7.2 was announced, the entire entertainment industry was silent for a while.

And apart from the silence, most of them are still jealous!

The benefits that a hit variety show can bring to the company are immeasurable and impossible to calculate!

For Huayi, if they can produce a project like "Running Man", the company's stock and market value will at least increase dramatically.

It is no exaggeration to say that adding several billion is absolutely easy.

But now, they can only drool in envy, because this project does not belong to them, and it will never belong to them.

As for Guangguang, the popularity of "Running Man" is undoubtedly a carnival for the company!

In just one week, the company's market value has skyrocketed by at least a billion, and this number is still rising, with no signs of stopping in a short time.

By the time the first quarter ends, if nothing unexpected happens, the Rays' market value will at least increase by more than 10% based on the current basis!

"Come on, let's have another drink to celebrate the success of "Running Man", haha."

In the box, Wang Changtian held up his wine glass with a bright smile on his face.

Hearing the sound, Su Guohai, Chen Fei, and Gu Yongqiang, who were sitting across from him, picked up their wine glasses and greeted each other from afar.

The first season was so popular. If we wait until the second or even third season is released, the results will only be better than now.

Thinking of the bright prospects for the future, several people couldn't hide their joy.

While chatting, Wang Changtian mentioned another thing: "Mr. Gu, I wonder when our other variety show project will be launched?"

Hearing the sound, Gu Yongqiang drank the wine in the glass and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Wang, you should be able to see the news tomorrow morning."

"Haha, then I wish our new project a great success!"

"cheers!"

For a moment, the laughter in the box became louder and louder.

…

The next morning, most film and television entertainment companies, brokerage companies and artist studios in the entertainment industry once again received invitations from Feiyue Film, Youku, and Guangguang.

The media's sense of smell is still as sensitive as ever, and they reported the relevant news as soon as possible.

"Following "Running Man", the large-scale outdoor reality show "Extreme Challenge", controlled by Youku, invested and produced by Feiyue Film and Television, and Enlight, has been officially launched."

"The variety show "Extreme Challenge" will screen and invite permanent guests and flying guests from the entire film and television and entertainment circles. At the same time, everyone is welcome to sign up."

"It is reported that, like "Running Man", the copyright of "Extreme Challenge" also comes from South Korea, and the prototype is South Korea's popular variety show "Infinite Challenge"."

"The structure of this variety show is: 6 permanent guests, all of whom are male, and a certain number of flying guests in each episode.

The program refuses to use various games that are divorced from real life. It does not simply pursue efficiency or physical strength. Instead, it combines men of several different stages and ages to allow them to return to real life, contact real people, and constantly use their intelligence. and physical strength to complete the task..."

"Following "Running Man", Feiyue Film and Television, together with Youku and Enlight, will once again launch a new variety show, which is very ambitious!"

Several investors don't even need to take the initiative to make announcements, because the entire film and television industry has already looked at it.

With the emergence and popularity of "Running Man", those who had doubts about the three production companies of Feiyue Films, Youku, and Guangguang have now been slapped in the face.

Facts have proved that a hit variety show is a hit variety show. Even if it is changed from South Korea to China, it is still a super hit.

And with the lessons learned from "Running Man", it also means that this variety show called "Extreme Challenge" has a 90% chance of becoming a hit!

For a time, countless people in the circle responded.

Along with this, there are also all kinds of jealous, scolding, complaining, envious, and uncomfortable people...

Despite the scolding, a large number of film and television companies, brokerage companies, artist studios, etc. all took action and began to inquire about how to join this variety show and become one of the regular guests.

Different from "Running Man", this time it is a competition and carnival between all the top male artists and actors in the industry!

As for those below the third line, there is no need to even think about it.

With "Running Man" in front of it, how could "Extreme Challenge" select some "flawed products" to be permanent guests?

…

Huang Xiaoming suddenly became confused.

He originally wanted to use his connections to get Yang Ying a spot as a flying guest in the second season of "Running Man".

But now that "Extreme Challenge" came out, he suddenly discovered that this variety show seems to be quite suitable for him!

So now the question arises, should you choose to help Yang Ying, or should you give yourself a chance first?

Deng Chao has now joined "Running Man", and its popularity has soared, far surpassing that of him and Tong Dawei.

Coupled with the blessing of the "Mermaid" project, it has an effect of 1+1>2.

If this situation continues, he is very likely to become a well-deserved top actor among actors in the industry, far surpassing others!

You know, the resources in the circle are limited. Once someone takes away the majority, the rest will only have some soup.

Thinking of this, Huang Xiaoming suddenly strengthened his inner thoughts.

Although your girlfriend's resources are important, you still have to put yourself first. You can't pick up the sesame seeds and lose the watermelons. That would be too stupid.

There are many people who have the same idea as Huang Xiaoming.

Everyone can see that if this "Extreme Challenge" is done well, it will be no less beneficial to one's own celebrity status than "Running Man".

Moreover, this variety show is all about one persona.

If we can design the characters well and gather a large number of loyal fans, we will be able to sit firmly on Diaoyutai in the future.

"Fanfan, are you interested in this variety show?"

In a very private luxury hotel in the capital, Xu Jinglei was smoking a cigarette while stroking the abdominal muscles that she couldn't put down, while chatting with the little girl in her arms.

"Yes!" Wu Yifan nodded quickly and looked at Xu Jinglei with an expectant expression: "Sister, can you help me get a permanent guest spot?"

He has successfully obtained the project "Old Paoer". If he can successfully become a regular guest on "Extreme Challenge", then his status as a national idol will be more stable.

"I can help you ask, but whether you can get it depends on your performance."

The corners of Xu Jinglei's mouth raised slightly, and the hand caressing her abdominal muscles used a little force to push Wu Yifan down.

Wu Yifan's face suddenly froze at the thought of eating that old seafood again.

But soon, he made mental preparations.

After half an hour of hard work, you can get a big project, which is... worth it!

Yunnan in October is much hotter than the capital.

When Chen Fei arrived at the hotel where the crew of "Operation Mekong" was staying in the vehicle picked up by the crew, Zhang Hanyu, Li Bingbin, Liu Shishi and others were already in place.

Including other crew members, filming team, logistics team, etc., all are ready to go and ready to start filming at any time.

"Everyone, how are you? Can you adapt to the environment here?"

Chen Fei greeted everyone with a smile and asked about their physical condition.

Yunnan is not like the capital. The climate here is very changeable. It was even a place of "exile" in ancient times. This shows how big the difference between the environment here and the capital is.

Zhang Hanyu was the first to respond: "Fortunately, I can adapt."

Li Bingbin also smiled and said: "I have been to places with worse environments than this place. This is nothing."

Other crew members also responded and said that they could accept it.

"Okay, if you have any questions, contact the on-site producer or logistics in time, they will arrange it for you."

Kang Honglei on the side also echoed: "Or you can find me."

As the crew officially moved to Yunnan, the filming was on track.

Next, more filming work will be handed over to Kang Honglei. After all, Chen Fei also has a role, and in most cases he has to appear in makeup.

Time quickly came to the afternoon, and the crew officially entered the working state.

All the extras began to put on makeup. The next scene to be filmed was a scene of a large number of anti-drug special police destroying drug dens, which involved gun battles, explosions, mountain pursuits, and drug seizures. It was another big scene!

An hour later, all preparations were ready.

Hundreds of "real guns and live ammunition" special police were on standby. In the wooden houses, various instruments, white powder, criminals, armed bandits, etc. were also ready.

Several shoulder-mounted cameras, cameras on jibs for shooting long-range shots, and several aerial drones in the air were also ready.

Chen Fei and Kang Honglei came to the monitor together.

After carefully adjusting the lens, Chen Fei picked up the intercom: "Ready, 3, 2, 1, Action!"

In the field, the crisp sound of the board suddenly sounded, and everyone moved according to the original trajectory.

So far, the first scene of the movie "Operation Mekong" after arriving in Yunnan has officially started shooting!

...

On Weibo, various press releases and hot searches are still emerging in an endless stream, which is dazzling.

However, just when many people's attention was focused on the two projects "The Great Wall" and "Go Fighting", a "bomb" flying from South Korea suddenly turned the entire entertainment industry upside down!

Less than half a year later, the entertainment industry once again saw what a real "top idol artist" is.

Following Wu Yifan's return to China in mid-May, the second member of the Asia's top boy group EXO team to sue SM Entertainment appeared!

He also left without saying goodbye, and also took the opportunity to sneak back to China, and then filed a lawsuit in the Seoul Court on the grounds of personal health and development restrictions.

Even the content of the appeal is exactly the same, that is, the exclusive agency contract with SM Entertainment is invalid and unconditional termination is required.

From the information disclosed by the media, Lu Han can be said to have completely copied Wu Yifan's operation method.

As soon as he landed, he posted four words on Weibo, namely: "I'm home."

However, just these four words made countless fans excited and responded one after another:

"Brother! We love you!"

"Brother! No matter what choice you make, we will support you unconditionally."

"I wish my brother better and better development in the future and go to a higher level!"

A large number of related topics were exposed at the same time, and the traffic data was probably poured in, almost crashing the Weibo server!

This shows how popular this person is!

As soon as the news spread, the domestic entertainment industry was completely shocked, and countless media swarmed in to compete for this wave of popularity and data.

Film and television companies, entertainment companies, and brokerage companies in the industry all looked sideways, with green light in their eyes, and one olive branch after another was extended to them, just waiting for the other party to respond.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as he nods his head in agreement, the treatment that Wu Yifan could enjoy at the beginning will not be reduced in the slightest, and he will even receive more.

Because the industry has proved the market value of the former, then the latter is naturally self-evident.

Especially those Internet companies, such as Alibaba Pictures, have offered sky-high prices at the first time!

For them, the huge "fan market scale" and amazing "fan appeal" mean huge benefits.

As long as it is properly operated, Lu Han is a money-making treasure pot.

Because in the entertainment industry, there is a market before there is a status, which is the number one rule of the film and television entertainment industry in the Internet era!

Zhang Qi, chairman of Alibaba Pictures, even made a bold statement: "As long as Lu Han can join Alibaba Pictures, we are confident that within one year, we can make him a top-tier idol superstar in China!"

As soon as this promise came out, Lu Han himself has not responded yet, but his group of fans can't sit still, and they can't wait to rush up and agree on behalf of their idol.

"If Guangguang can get him, and then let him participate in the variety show "Go Fighting", wouldn't he become an instant hit?"

When Chen Fei received the call from Wang Changtian, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Mr. Wang, don't think so far ahead. Just think about it. Can people see it under the lighting conditions? In other words, can you compare with Huayi and Alibaba Pictures?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Changtian was immediately speechless.

Indeed, in comparison, Ray's competitiveness is indeed not as great as other companies.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly changed the topic: "Why don't you take action? According to your company's current conditions, can't you still attract him?"

Chen Fei chuckled and said bluntly: "Our company's main business has always been film and television production. As for artist management, that's just incidental.

Moreover, what I want is acting and strength, not the kind of idol artist who only shows off his coolness without any real talent. "
