Entertainment Empire System
Chapter 1,142 Showdown
If you feel like you're not looking far enough, it's because you're not standing higher.
Status determines everything, especially in a place where reality is like this in the entertainment industry. In fact, Na Ying has seen far enough on this issue.
Therefore, when she saw Ye Ming and Li Lianjie, she knew what they were doing. At this time, Zhang Weiping and Zhang Yimou also arrived, and when these two people came, there were many people saying hello, because these two people have a wide range of connections in the circle, have many connections, and have many friends. All actors want to have a good relationship with Zhang Yimou. In this case, would you like to say hello to Zhang Yimou? Maybe there will be an opportunity for cooperation.
Therefore, there are actually many people greeting these two people, mainly because of Zhang Yimou. As for Zhang Weiping, not many people know him. Zhang Weiping is more of a businessman in the entertainment industry, while Zhang Yimou appears as an artist, a great director, and a director at the national master level.
I briefly said hello to a few actors. In fact, other people knew very well what these two people were here for. As the fortune teller Na Ying said, Ye Ming and Li Lianjie must have come here to see Zhang Yimou. Now that Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping are here, one problem becomes much simpler.
Therefore, on such a matter, Ye Ming shrugged and said, "Sister, what you said is right. As expected, I came to see Director Zhang. I have some things to talk about. See you later. If you and Sister Wang Fei participate in the Running Man , that’s just a phone call from you, I’ll send someone to fetch you two right away. See you later.”
The relationship between these two people is very strong, so there is no problem of being polite. At this time, Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping went to the box with Ye Ming and Li Lianjie. At this time, the people in the living room were a little surprised. .
Of these four people, not to mention Zhang Weiping, a businessman, there are many rich people, and he is no less famous. But when it comes to the reputation of the other three, they are all well-known. Even Ye Ming is a newcomer. International stars have already made their mark in Hollywood. Given time, they may not be able to gain a firm foothold in Hollywood.
In fact, a very obvious characteristic of gaining a foothold in Hollywood is that you cannot lose money on three movies. This is the basic condition for you to gain a foothold among the first-line stars in Hollywood.
It doesn’t necessarily mean making a lot of money, of course it’s better if you can make a lot of money, but if you can ensure that your movie doesn’t lose money, then there’s no problem.
He has at least starred in three movies that did not lose money in Hollywood. According to the unspoken rules of Hollywood, this actor will be recognized by everyone as a first-line actor in Hollywood.
As for being unable to do this, he is not worthy of being called a first-tier actor at all, or even a second-tier middling actor at best. But Ye Ming has obviously begun to approach this condition.
As for the remaining two, Zhang Yimou and Li Lianjie, it goes without saying that their achievements are recognized by the industry. You may not like their works, but you cannot deny their achievements.
These three are actually well-known figures in the entertainment industry, but according to current rumors in the entertainment industry, these three are probably having conflicts over the movie "Hero". It is said that Li Lianjie and Ye Ming were in a relationship during the audition. None of them were very good, so Li Lianjie was asked to walk away. However, in the end, regarding such a question, the three people's expressions when they met showed that the relationship was still very good.
What the hell was going on at this time.
Therefore, there are some people in the living room wondering what will happen next.
Zhang Guoli even said that he found Na Ying and said, "Ye Ming was with Li Lianjie just now. Didn't he say why?"
This question is a bit unclear. Zhang Guoli has just returned from filming TV, so he is not very clear about these things in the entertainment industry. Anyway, the people who play here are all people with good connections. Therefore, Zhang Guoli is also a bit I found Na Ying without any hesitation.
Na Ying thought for a while and said, "You don't know about the national power? Director Zhang Yimou is going to shoot a martial arts blockbuster [Hero], and he has to choose the leading actors. One is Ye Ming and the other is Li Lianjie. It is said that these two auditioned.
Originally I was interested in Li Lianjie, but later I heard that Li Lienjie was going to film the Hollywood blockbuster "Wind Talker" directed by Wu Yusen, so he declined the role and replaced it with Ye Ming to star. As a result, looking at this situation now, it seems, The relationship between Ye Ming and Li Lianjie is not as bad as everyone says.
On this point, in fact, no matter what it is, it is related to who will star in the first martial arts blockbuster in the mainland. Do you know what this means, right? "
When Zhang Guoli heard this, he smiled and said: "This thing itself is enough to be made into a movie. It's interesting, it's really interesting."
This matter is said to be part-time palace fighting. Therefore, on such a question, Na Ying also nodded and said: "Who says it's not the case? Originally, I wanted to go back, but at this time, no one is willing to fight with me. I was playing mahjong, but when I saw Ye Ming coming, and there was such a big thing waiting for the result, I decided to wait and see what happened. Who was going to play the leading role in the martial arts blockbuster directed by Zhang Yimou? , I hope Ye Ming will star."
After all, Na Ying and Ye Ming had a better relationship, so she naturally said that she hoped that her acquaintances would come to participate.
Zhang Guoli said pertinently: "If we talk about acting skills, then Ye Ming is obviously more suitable, but if we talk about popularity, then I think Li Lianjie has a better chance. After all, if we talk about Ye Ming who was originally selected If so, what's the point of recruiting Li Lianjie here? Therefore, the result still depends on the outcome of their final negotiations."
Naturally, many people wanted to know this result. In fact, after the four people entered the box, the smell of gunpowder was quite strong. Zhang Weiping said somewhat unhappily: "You two, what song are you singing? Are you kidding us?
If you say you are going to appear, you will act. If you say you are not acting, you will not act. This approach is unkind. "
Now Zhang Weiping is actually being reasonable, because he himself is very clear about such a matter. In fact, no matter how it is, his movie needs Ye Ming or Li Lianjie. Zhong thought he was here to star, so it was impossible for him to offend both of them directly.
Now that these two people are standing together, even if Zhang Weiping wants to fall out, he still wants to see if he can bear such a high price. Otherwise, any actor who dares to let go of Zhang Weiping would definitely not be able to negotiate with such a pleasant Zhang Weiping on such a matter.
Status determines everything. The status of Ye Ming and Li Lianjie actually means that they will stand in the same camp on such a matter.
Although Zhang Weiping didn't know why, he knew that today he was not here to ask questions, but to discuss matters.
Of course, it is normal for Zhang Weiping to complain. At this time, Ye Ming said without giving any face: "It doesn't make sense for Manager Zhang to say this. We haven't signed a contract. How can we be kind or not? If we are kind, please invite me over." , but in the end, you suppressed me. First of all, you did this unkindly, right?"
If Ye Ming must say this, then this matter is nothing. What Zhang Weiping did in this matter is indeed unkind, and it means that Ye Ming is already in such a matter. He got a lead in the audition. As a result, even Chen Daomin knew that Ye Ming's acting skills were stronger than Li Lianjie's.
In fact, everyone knows this well, but the final result was that Li Lianjie passed the audition and almost did not sign a contract with the Hero crew.
If Ye Ming must say that Zhang Weiping is unkind, if it is nonsense, Zhang Weiping really has nothing to say and is speechless when it comes to a matter like this.
At this time, Zhang Weiping said awkwardly: "Well, this is just a need for work. Mr. Ye is also a member of the circle. He knows that this kind of propositional composition must consider all aspects of feelings. If it is about a question like this , I said that I don’t even call the shots, can you understand this? It seems that everyone understands Long Live, just like you and Lao Zhang are ambassadors for the Olympic bid."
Although it is a bit unreasonable to say this, Ye Ming did not care about it, but followed the topic and said: "Anyway, everyone knows what is going on. This time, I want to tell you two What was clearly explained are some issues between Mr. Li Lianjie and me, and I recommend Mr. Li Lianjie to star in this movie."
Zhang Yimou didn't say anything else. He knew that an international superstar of Li Lianjie's level had already said he would not take part, so there must be a reason. But now he regrets saying he will take part. This is not enough and is absolutely impossible. At this time, Zhang Yimou said very directly: "I need an explanation. If your explanation can convince me, then there is no problem in cooperation. But if your explanation cannot convince me, both of you will Don’t even think about starring in this movie, the worst thing you can do is find new talents.”
Zhang Yimou actually has such confidence. After all, he is a director at the national master level. If he wants to praise a newcomer, as long as the newcomer's conditions are not very bad, then on such a problem, this newcomer must be Those who will stand out, for example, Zhang Ziyi is an example. Therefore, when Zhang Yimou said such words, he was categorical and there was no room for relaxation at all.
At this time, Ye Ming quickly talked about Li Lianjie's desire to come back, and Li Lianjie himself also said that the remuneration for his appearance in the movie would be set up by the One Fund. The next step is to let the One Fund follow the normal rules. The form of the charity foundation has declined, and it will be considered a success if it can continue to operate without Li Lianjie.
After Zhang Yimou heard this, he was very moved and said helplessly: "Some people in China may think of doing such a thing, but on such an issue, no matter how you say it, at this time, it is It expresses one thing, that is, it is difficult to be a good person. Mr. Li wants to do it this way, and I personally support it."
Zhang Yimou said this appropriately. After all, he himself cannot represent the company. The person who represents the company is Zhang Weiping. Even if Zhang Yimou himself is a powerful director, he cannot take the decision for Zhang Weiping.
After all, Zhang Weiping is the leader. This is also where Zhang Yimou is smart. He will correct his mentality.
In this matter, in fact, more people show arrogance and arrogance, and break up due to certain achievements, but Zhang Yimou will clearly understand his position. He uses his personal identity to support Li Lianjie and does not exceed his authority.
At this time, Zhang Weiping was also very moved. He nodded and said: "If this is the case, then we support Mr. Li, but yes, the salary cannot be higher. Three million, this Is it really our sincerity? I won’t tell you how much we invested in the whole movie. Ye Ming should also know it. Therefore, I can’t give you too much on a question like this. I hope you can understand this."
This statement directly states the bottom line of Xinhuamian Film and Television Company. If this bottom line is not crossed, then everyone still has the opportunity to cooperate. This is the foundation of the cooperation between the two parties.
Li Lianjie immediately nodded and said: "Going to [Wind Talker] is actually a smoke bomb, a smoke bomb for Hollywood. The purpose is to build momentum for Ye Ming. Ye Ming needs to step on a star to rise to the top, even if he steps on me It's great to be in Hollywood.
In fact, Hollywood really wants to see infighting in China. As for how much you will pay for the film, three million is three million, but five million must be used for promotion, otherwise I will not be able to explain it to the Screen Actors Guild. "
After all, Li Lianjie himself is also a member of the Screen Actors Guild of America, so when it comes to such a matter, Zhang Weiping said without hesitation: "There is no problem with this. I will let people do this thing cleanly, and you can pay taxes according to Five million in taxes, anyway, as long as you have the tax payment certificate, the rest is not a big deal."
This is something that only veterans in the entertainment industry can do. Where can I find 5 million to pay taxes? Zhang Weiping is not short of this amount of tax, but the reward for Li Lianjie is still 3 million. Zhang Weiping saved a lot on this matter. It's a small amount of money, and it's a good publicity for the movie. (To be continued)
