Chapter 982: Survival in a Desperate Situation? Post-2000s Enter the Core Circle of Film and Television! The Final Blow to the Female Buffett!
Chapter 982 Survival in a desperate situation? Post-2000s...entering the core circle of film and television! The final blow to female Buffett!
In the outside world, the Internet is full of entries about "I am not Fan Jinlian", "Huayi", "Wanda", "Contradiction", "Zhengfeng", etc., which makes many melon-eaters quite dizzy.
However, while everyone was watching the excitement, Huayi was already in a state of mourning!
In the huge conference room, all the senior officials of Huayi were present, but the atmosphere at this time was audible.
Wang Zhongjun sat in the main seat without saying a word, wondering what he was thinking.
Wang Zhonglei on the side was holding his mobile phone and constantly refreshing the news on the Internet, hoping to see some good news.
It's a pity that in addition to bad news, what appears in his eyes is bad news!
Feng Xiaogang, who was sitting on the other side, seemed to be unable to suppress the anger and resentment that was about to burst out from his heart.
He is not convinced!
He is dissatisfied!
He is unhappy!
"Why? Who can tell me why Wanda did this? Why should the grievances between the two companies be repaid on my movie? I have not offended Wanda, so why should they treat me like this? Who will make up for my losses! Ah! "
Questions echoed in the air, directly causing the atmosphere in the conference room to become increasingly tense.
All the executives lowered their heads at this time, fearing that they would be rubbed or touched, which would lead to the loss of their positions under the buttocks and be exiled.
"well!"
Wang Zhongjun sighed, with a hint of helplessness and confusion in his hazy eyes.
He had actually expected things to develop to this point.
But he has been taking chances and believes that Wanda will not do too well. After all, Wanda relies on theaters and box office to make a living.
The lower the box office of "I'm Not Phan Kim Lien" is, the less share their theaters can get, so this is actually a "lose-lose" situation.
But even so, Wanda still did it, and this horse riding was so fucked!
"Director Feng, I understand your mood, but we must calm down..."
Wang Zhongjun glanced at every executive present and continued: "The current situation is indeed difficult. They use their monopoly position to suppress our movies. This is an indisputable fact, but we must not be swayed by emotions. We must find out Coping Strategies.”
"Response? How to respond? How do you want me to calm down? If you only give me a small schedule, the box office will definitely be affected. If the cost cannot be recovered..."
As he said this, Feng Xiaogang suddenly paused.
Although everyone knows about the gambling, some specific details have been signed under a confidentiality agreement and cannot be disclosed even in senior management meetings.
"Mr. Ye, is there anything else you can do?" Wang Zhonglei put down his phone and cast an expectant look at Ye Ning.
"I suggest that we can start from multiple angles." Ye Ning frowned slightly and added: "On the one hand, we can strengthen public relations, clarify the facts, and let the public know the truth;
On the other hand, we can seek reasonable ways to safeguard our legitimate rights and interests. At the same time, we must also strengthen internal collaboration to ensure that all links can operate smoothly..."
"Then what? That's it? Will this allow Wanda to increase the schedule of my movie?" Feng Xiaogang expressed doubts and full of resentment.
Ye Ning did not tolerate him, and immediately replied: "If Director Feng is not satisfied, I can give you my seat. Whatever you say, I will listen to you."
"you!"
"Okay, okay, what's the fuss about my family?"
Wang Zhongjun had no choice but to interrupt the conversation between the two, and then acknowledged Ye Ning's words: "The first priority is to do what Mr. Ye said. We must not mess up. As for the film schedule... I Let’s try to communicate with Wanda.”
Huayi has many businesses that overlap with Wanda in real estate.
In Wang Zhongjun's view, as long as he steps forward and speaks softly, he may be able to save the current situation.
Although this will damage one's prestige, as of now, "money" is the most important thing, and everything else is just external things.
"The distribution side will fully cooperate to ensure that the publicity and promotion of the film will not be affected. At the same time, I will also use my previous experience and connections in Wanda Cinemas to strive to get more film schedules and arrangements from other cinemas. resource."
Ye Ning spoke slowly and made a promise.
In fact, compared to the previous distribution manager, his appointment has indeed brought a lot of convenience to the company.
For example, the 40% to 45% range of film schedules offered by other theaters was obtained by him.
But as for Wanda, he is indeed a clever woman who cannot make a meal without rice.
They don't give him any face at all, what can he do?
"Okay, let's end today's meeting here and get busy."
Wang Zhongjun stood up first and walked out of the office.
Communicating on the phone was not very suitable under the current circumstances. In order to express his sincerity, he decided to visit the "richest man" in person.
I just don’t know if the other party will give me face?
…
There are indeed many people watching and enjoying the fun, but there are also many people who are not very interested in the current predicament of "I am not Phan Jinlian".
For example, none of the crew members of "The Wandering Earth" went online to join in the fun.
With so much work at hand, where is the time to eat melons?
"This is the performance contract with the crew, and this is the contract with my studio. You can take a look first. If you have any questions, you can ask me."
In the temporary office, Guo Fan placed the two contracts in front of Zhao Jinmai and her family.
"Thank you, Director Guo."
Zhao Jinmai responded softly, looking quite excited and excited.
She really didn't expect that she actually succeeded in defeating so many competitors and got the role of "Han Duoduo"!
When she thought that she could also play a big-budget, big-screen science fiction work, she couldn't hide her excitement!
And her aunt, who acted as her agent, was looking at the two contracts in front of them with the lawyers they brought, checking one by one for loopholes.
Guo Fan did not disturb them, but was busy with his own things.
At present, there is still a male lead who plays "Liu Qi" who has not been determined. He has received a lot of resumes and auditioned one of them, but he just can't find a suitable one...
So, he plans to invite this second group of people and try a few more times to see if there is a suitable person.
In a blink of an eye, more than half an hour passed.
After reading the contract, Zhao Jinmai's aunt asked a very critical question: "Director Guo, this contract states that a professional agency team will come to help Mai Mai build a future work plan on the day she signs the contract. I wonder what this "professional team" means?"
Guo Fan raised his head and glanced at her, and replied: "Feiyue Film and Television will arrange a group of people to come. You don't have to worry about the team's business capabilities. Those people have served Dilireba, Guli Nazha, Liu Shishi, Zhou Xun and others. They will be cross-rotated and trained regularly to ensure professionalism and up-to-date operation status..."
Feiyue Film and Television? !
Hearing these four words, Zhao Jinmai and her aunt swallowed unconsciously.
This is a "giant" recognized by the industry! With this company's support behind the scenes, for actors, there is undoubtedly an unshakable top backer!
Zhao Jinmai did not hesitate at all. After looking at her aunt, she immediately picked up a pen and signed her name on the contract.
This also means that in the next 5 years, she will be deeply bound with Guo Fan's studio.
After all the procedures were completed, Guo Fan took out the contract of "The Wandering Earth" from the safe under the desk, handed it to Zhao Jinmai, and instructed:
"Next, you don't need to take other jobs. The studio will provide you with a series of personnel such as agents, assistants, public relations, logistics, and drivers within no more than 3 days. You should get familiar with them first."
"Yeah, okay, thank you Director Guo, then I won't disturb you at work."
Zhao Jinmai nodded lightly and prepared to get up and leave.
But at this moment, Guo Fan suddenly reminded: "Your family is in the capital, right? It's best not to leave the country before the 25th."
"It's in the capital." Zhao Jinmai's eyes flashed with confusion. She didn't understand why she couldn't leave the country?
"On the 22nd, the film "La La Land" directed by Chen Fei and Liu Yifei will have its premiere in the capital. I will go there at that time. You can go with me."
As soon as Guo Fan said this, Zhao Jinmai and her aunt's eyes lit up and they couldn't hide their surprise!
You know, before this, they had no chance to participate in such activities.
Even though Zhao Jinmai had starred in movies, children's magic movies like "Balala the Fairies: The Magic Trial" were not enough to make her step into the core of the film and television industry.
This is also the gap between her and Zhang Zifeng, after all, she has starred in "Detective Chinatown 1".
But now it's different!
When she officially signed to join Guo Fan's studio, she took a step into the core of the film and television industry.
As long as she doesn't commit suicide, after playing the role of Han Duoduo in "The Wandering Earth", the resources she can access next will definitely be a qualitative improvement!
"Okay, Director Guo, I will definitely not run around, I will wait for your call at home."
Zhao Jinmai happily agreed.
...
In a blink of an eye, time has come to the afternoon.
On the Internet, a "rumor" suddenly spread out, attracting a lot of onlookers.
A paparazzi photographed Wang Zhongjun driving to Wanda Group, suspected to be there to negotiate, but he walked out in less than five minutes, and his face was extremely ugly...
Based on this situation, under the operation of the marketing account, the online hot search suddenly exploded!
"Huayi Chairman Wang Zhongjun went to Wanda to seek peace due to the scheduling of "I Am Not Fan Jinlian", but was driven away by Wang Jianlin."
"According to people familiar with the matter, Wang Zhongjun was driven out by security guards just a few minutes after entering the door."
"The conflict between the two sides has completely intensified and is completely irreconcilable. It is suspected that there will be greater disputes next..."
For a while, the eyes of many netizens were attracted by these news.
However, at this time, Chen Fei's eyes were on the financial and stock markets, just because the news he had been waiting for for a long time finally appeared!
Looking around, the entire A-share circle was completely lively and sensational at this time;
A large number of "full-time" stockholders were even more interested in watching the latest news exposed on the Internet, and they were already preparing to raise funds and enter the market in a big way.
"It is reported that on the 18th, Capital Time, listed companies Wanjia Culture and Longwei Media submitted placards to the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the Shanghai Stock Exchange to submit an application for approval of a large-scale acquisition."
"Detailed information shows that Longwei Media will subsequently transfer 29.135% of the equity of Wanjia Culture at a price of approximately 3.06 billion yuan; after the completion of this equity transfer, Longwei Media will become the largest shareholder of Wanjia Culture. The actual controller of the company will also be changed to Zhao Yanzi.”
“According to the inquiry, Longwei Media was established in November 2016 with a registered capital of only 2 million yuan. Its main business includes cultural and artistic exchange planning consulting, corporate image design planning, film and television planning consulting, etc.
However, although it has been established for a short time and has not yet carried out actual business activities, Longwei Media plans to make major adjustments to Wanjia Culture by relying on Zhao Yanzi’s rich experience in the film and television cultural industry and capital market.
According to the relevant person in charge of Longwei Media, Zhao Yanzi and Longwei Media have made preliminary plans for the future development and management of Wanjia Culture. In the next 12 months, Wanjia Culture may be injected with high-quality assets related to the entertainment industry. And we do not rule out the possibility of divesting non-entertainment core assets and businesses..."
As a large amount of "inside information" surfaced, coupled with Zhao Yanzi's multiple identities as "the entertainment industry version of female Buffett", "second shareholder of Alibaba Pictures", "shareholder of Tangde Film and Television", etc., it immediately attracted the attention of a large number of investors. .
Although Zhao Yanzi is already having a difficult time in the film and television industry due to various previous scandals.
But with Ali's endorsement, she is still thriving in the capital circle!
In addition, her husband Huang Youlong also holds equity interests in Hong Kong-listed companies Jinbaobao Holdings, Shunlong Holdings, and Yunfeng Financial, as well as Princes Culture Communication Co., Ltd., and Mengluo Wine Trading Co., Ltd. controlled by Zhao Yanzi. company, Zhao Zhao Film and Television Culture Studio, Wuhu Dongrunfa Investment Co., Ltd. and many other enterprises, which directly caused the couple to become upstarts in the capital circle!
Now, the couple has launched an acquisition plan for the listed company Wanjia Culture, which undoubtedly proves that this company has unlimited potential.
For a time, the entire Big A went completely crazy!
Especially the investors who lost money in Big A last year are now even more excited, thinking that this is the best opportunity to get their money back!
If you look at various financial channels, you can see that there are already some economists and call beasts starting to talk loudly.
"As long as the competent authorities approve this acquisition, and after Wanjia Culture is successfully suspended, reorganized, and resumed trading, the stock price will definitely experience a surge..."
Many investors agree very much with this point of view, and they have begun to prepare funds, prepare to enter the market, and realize their goal of getting rich overnight!
However, what they don't know is that in Zhao Yanzi's eyes, they have become watery leeks with high expectations!
"We can start the plan we made before." A call was made by Chen Fei.
"Okay, Director Chen." On the other end of the phone, Zhou Shouzi responded and muttered with some emotion: "They are so crazy. They only have less than 100 million in their own funds, but they dare to go up to 3 billion." Leverage? This is so courageous!”
"Haha, as the old saying goes, the land is as productive as the boldness of the people."
Chen Fei was already used to it. After all, the idea of supporting the bold to death and starving the timid to death has become popular in China a long time ago.
And Zhao Yanzi's operation just substantiated this statement.
…
As the night gets darker, a new day of filming for "The God of Medicine" comes to an end.
On the way back to the hotel, Chen Fei finally took some free time to watch the progress of the public controversy between "I'm Not Fan Jinlian" and Wanda.
Since the paparazzi revealed in the afternoon that Wang Zhongjun had been rejected, a large number of people claiming to be fans of "I'm Not Fan Jinlian", Feng Xiaogang, and Fan Bingbing suddenly appeared on the Internet, and they began to go to Wanda's official account to "speak out for justice."
Looking around, these people are all telling the grievances of the movie, and at the same time they are also accusing Wanda of being domineering!
"I have already sent a report letter to the General Administration of Film. This kind of unfair suppression is simply an insult to us movie fans!"
"That's right, why don't you schedule a prime time movie for "I'm Not Phan Kim Lien"? In a theater, there are only movies scheduled at two o'clock in the middle of the night. Isn't this a joke?"
"This is the hard work of everyone on the crew! How dare you, Wanda, to waste the efforts of so many people!"
"I am making a serious protest here! Conflicts and competition between companies should not be involved in the movie itself!"
"After all, he is also the richest man, but he only has so much ambition? How can he still get along in the future?"
Interestingly, those who have spoken out in support of "I am Not Phan Kim Lien" are almost all self-proclaimed "fans", while the filmmakers in the circle are more low-key than the last.
Even the leading actors in the movie are trying their best to avoid going out in public for fear of being blocked by reporters.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that now is the time for "fighting between gods"!
And ordinary stars, actors, even filmmakers who have half a foot or even one foot in the capital circle are nothing more than a relatively tall grasshopper in front of the "gods".
Who dares to get involved in this situation now?
A slight blow might lead to death, let alone a voice of support.
"Haha, I don't know how much more this movie can do at the box office on the first day after suffering such severe suppression?"
In the car, Chen Fei murmured, with a hint of anticipation.
And there are many people who have similar ideas as him. Everyone is looking forward to it. When the first-day box office results of "I Am Not Fan Jinlian" are released, how will Huayi react?
Let's not talk about others for now. Just look at Feng Xiaogang. If nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely jump out and jump!
