Chapter 368 Star Wars: The Phantom Menace

A good final cocktail party has turned out like this, making Ye Ming very helpless, but no matter how he said it, it cannot be changed. Wang Jinghua even said that Wang Zhongjun had spent an unknown amount of time planning for this day. I don’t know how much work has been done. The poor chapter company not only said that it didn’t know how to appease its artists, but also said that it forced its artists to sign a longer and more demanding five-year contract, and it was a judgment call.

Therefore, Zhongjie Company was completely defeated, and it was not unjust at all. The ace manager Wang Jinghua’s method of building plank roads in secret was quite beautiful. In fact, most people in the circle knew very well that Wang Jinghua would sign with China Brother Yi, but no matter what, no one thought that Wang Jinghua's real plan was to wipe out almost all the people in Zhongjie Company.

At this time, Wang Jinghua put on a victor's attitude and said: "Manager He, we will have a cocktail party later. If you have time, you can come and participate. We are very welcome. Maybe we will also attend in the future." There are opportunities for collaboration.”

They were all torn apart. Wang Jinghua still said this, which was obviously inappropriate. In such a situation, his explanation was disgusting to He Xiuqiong.

How could He Xiuqiong be so nice to her at this time? She immediately snorted and said, "Forget it, I can't afford this wine. Li Ping, let's go." [Love is Deep and Rainy] The crew was completely defeated. Haha, my wedding reception has become a wedding dress for someone else. At this time, He Xiuqiong couldn't help but not lose heart. When He Xiuqiong walked to the door, Ye Ming said: "Manager He, actually things would not have ended like this. I really don't know what Auntie thought about coming up with such a contract."

Now that the matter has come to an end, Ye Ming always has to ask some uncomfortable questions in his heart, especially in such a situation, why does Qiong Yao have such a coercive and obviously domineering attitude? With the emergence of a style contract, could it be that Qiong Yao didn't know the importance of such a thing at all. Appeasement was the king, and direct threats were simply courting death.

He Xiuqiong turned around and said: "Do you know what Auntie hates the most? It's waiting. If you say you can't sign with a company and ask them to film TV series in the future, you will have to wait for the schedule. This is what Auntie doesn't want to watch the most. Arrived, and the aunt also knew that sooner or later, she would have to relax, and there would be no banquet. However, in such a situation, the aunt did not expect that things would happen so quickly.

Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. This is Auntie's temper. Everyone has their own way, right? This is Auntie's way. In fact, according to my idea, I don't need to be so domineering, but Auntie can't stand it. "

Everything is the attention of Qiong Yao. Qiong Yao is a good writer and publisher, but she is not a good filmmaker. At least she cannot understand some of the truths and always acts according to her own emotions.

But this is a commercial society, especially the entertainment industry, which is the result of this.

Therefore, Qiong Yao's TV series and novels will gradually disappear from the market. Under such a situation, He Xiuqiong is actually a little helpless. This time, she is exhausted. In fact, if He Xiuqiong is allowed to do it by herself If so, then He Xiuqiong could at least win over half of the people to stay. However, Aunt Qiong Yao threw out a five-year contract. Under such circumstances, this matter became irreversible.

After He Xiuqiong and others left in despair, Zhao Wei's eyes also went blank, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

At this time, Lin Xinru came over and said, "Zhao Wei, if you have no place to go, you can come to Huayi Brothers. We are all old friends, and we have a better understanding during filming."

Obviously, Lin Xinru didn't think of this. It was Wang Jinghua who wanted to win over Xiao Yanzi Zhao Wei. But at this time, Zhao Wei shook his head and said, "Xinru, please stop talking. Everyone has their own ambitions. I will consider my own affairs. I don't know if you are going to Huayi Brothers, but I won't go." "

After saying this, he greeted his sister-in-law Chen Rong and left. Seeing the back of Zhao Wei walking away, Lin Xinru said helplessly: "What a pity, Sister Hua, I know that Zhao Wei is a very honest person, but he is also a stubborn person. Please come over, I think Zhao Wei is really sad this time, and very sad."

Everyone knows each other very well. Regarding such a problem, Lin Xinru knows what kind of character Zhao Wei is, so she has no regrets about the failure.

Wang Jinghua was not surprised by her failure. She nodded with a smile and said: "Forget it, don't say anything else. I have to thank Mr. Ye for this. If there is no support from Mr. Ye, then in a place like this It is impossible for us to succeed under the circumstances, so here I will borrow flowers and offer them to Buddha to thank Mr. Ye."

Ye Ming did not interfere with this process, which made Wang Jinghua extremely grateful.

Ye Ming quickly waved his hand and said: "I'll just pretend that I don't know about this. I won't stop Peng Xinru and others from getting rich. In fact, what Zhongjie Company did is indeed a bit excessive."

This is a key factor why Wang Jinghua is successful. Compared with Zhongjie Company, the price offered by Huayi Brothers is a relatively suitable price.

Feng Xiaogang was holding red wine. The wine shone with a strange red light, like the bright blood on the battlefield after the smoke had dissipated.

Seeing Ye Ming, Feng Xiaogang said with a smile: "Brother, thank you for doing this. Sister Hua's doing this has helped me a lot. If I make a film on such a problem, I finally said It’s not easy to have some supporting roles in your own company. Of course, if Brother Ye can also co-produce a movie with me, that’s not to say it’s impossible.”

This was an olive branch extended by Feng Xiaogang. Ye Ming naturally said that there was no need to refuse immediately. Therefore, he nodded and said cheerfully: "This matter is easy to talk about. If there is a suitable book, our two companies will not talk about it." Unable to cooperate.”

Hearing this, even Wang Zhongjun was interested. He came over and said, "If we really want to cooperate, our Huayi brothers will definitely support us. If you, Ye Zi, do anything good, you must do it." Thinking of us."

The movies Ye Ming shoots are all very profitable. Not to mention the movies he invested in, even the movies he participated in are doing very well. At this time, "No One Less" was shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival. Wang Zhongjun was the first person to know the news, and I heard that people in Cannes were quite interested in the movie. The theme song of the movie was sung by Ye Ming. If the film can achieve success in Cannes, then Ye Ming's fame will definitely rise to the next level.

Therefore, Wang Zhongjun is also very confident in Ye Ming's book. At this time, Ye Ming said with a smile: "Mr. Wang is too polite. In fact, I originally had a contract with Zhongjie Company, saying that I would use the original cast of Huanzhugege to film a TV series, but now it seems that Then this thing is a bit extravagant.”

Most of the people from Huanzhugege have gone to Huayi Brothers, so if they want to get together again at this time, it is basically impossible.

But Wang Zhongjun also patted his chest and said: "If there is really an opportunity for cooperation, Huayi will be very supportive. It is not impossible for you to cooperate with us brilliantly."

Ye Ming himself said that, which naturally meant that he was very confident in the script of his TV series. Therefore, at a time like this, Wang Zhongjun really put his heart into it.

He is very optimistic about cooperation in dealing with things.

Moreover, I have Feng Xiaogang, and the relationship between Feng Xiaogang and Ye Ming is very good. Therefore, if everyone talks about cooperation, it is not impossible. Ye Ming didn't say a word to block this road, so he nodded and said with a smile: "I will definitely do it if I have the right opportunity. By the way, Mr. Wang, with your big move this time, there should be big moves next year." Well, I think your company will even make big moves this year."

If there is no big move, then Wang Zhongjun may not bother to get all Wang Jinghua and Huanzhugege's people to the company at this time.

At this time, Wang Zhongjun didn't hide anything. He nodded and said: "It's almost the same. In fact, it means something like this, but it's not from our family. If you have time tomorrow, go to an event with me. Then you will know what it is like." Such a thing, at this time, even if Huihuang Film and Television wants to be alone, it is impossible, I think you will be interested."

Hearing Wang Zhongjun say something like this, there was something behind his words. Ye Ming glanced at him and said, "Mr. Wang means there is something going on above."

Seeing Wang Zhongjun's expression like this, Ye Ming guessed that it was similar. When he looked like this, it must mean there was something going on above him. In fact, Wang Zhongjun did not answer such a question directly, but raised a new question: "This year's movie market is not very lively. The box office is now more than 200 million, although it is said that there is no It's the prime time of the Spring Festival, but the current results are there. Last year's total box office was 1.7 billion, and the situation this year is not optimistic. You should always know why, right?" People outside the circle of this question may be It's not very clear, but at this time, as a person in the circle, Ye Ming knows very well what is going on.

Therefore, Ye Ming thought for a while and said helplessly: "If I thought it was right, it is because of the introduction of blockbusters. This year, foreign blockbusters were stopped for five months. Everything was done to promote the National Day. This is No one dares to disobey what the leaders above have decided.” This is a political task, so it is overwhelming and no one dares to violate it. However, in fact, there are policies from above and countermeasures from below. If they are not allowed to be released, they will not be released. It cannot be said that these blockbusters cannot be released after the National Day. Wang Zhongjun nodded and said: "That's the truth, but we always have to give everyone a chance. China Film Group controls the introduction of movies. There has been no action in the past five months. However, I heard that it won't be long before... A blockbuster film will be introduced. Therefore, such a thing will definitely inject new vitality into the entire film market. China Film Group has a very accurate grasp of the situation. When you are stuck and want to die, give me a sweet Zaozhiqiang, many movie theaters are thinking about this blockbuster?"

It almost means that we haven’t seen an imported blockbuster in half a year. If one were suddenly introduced, it would be impossible not to make money.

Therefore, as soon as such news came out, it naturally aroused the excitement of the theater bosses.

Ye Ming thought for a while and found that one of the conditions met, he immediately blurted out: "[Star Wars: The Phantom Menace]?"

All in all, this was a big surprise in 1999, and it was a super blockbuster that was both surprising and surprising.

[Star Wars] is a classic science fiction blockbuster that has influenced a generation. It takes a certain amount of courage to introduce a prequel to this science fiction film. I guess the people at China Film Group also saw that the movie market was too shabby. Therefore, we decided to introduce this blockbuster film.

Wang Zhongjun nodded. He was not surprised at all that Ye Ming knew such news. It would be strange if Ye Ming didn't know. Therefore, Wang Zhongjun said with a smile: "That's right, it is said to be quite exciting. It’s a science fiction film, and China Film Group has made great determination to introduce it. If you are not interested in this film, if your own theater chain can show this film, it should be full of seats.”

At this time, Wang Zhongjun was a little envious of Ye Ming. Did he have a theater chain? Not only could he make money by making movies, but he could also make a fortune with suitable imported blockbusters.

But at this moment, Ye Ming shook his head and said: "Let's talk about it when we get back. Anyway, this matter has not been finalized yet. I heard that many theaters are interested in this imported blockbuster. The competition is very fierce. It’s hard to say who will win by then, but I’m optimistic about the Spring Festival period, which is a battleground for military strategists.”

Wang Zhongjun strongly agrees with these two words of Ye Ming. "Star Wars: The Phantom Menace" is known as the biggest science fiction film in recent years. If it is based on the name of Star Wars, if the box office is not high, then It's impossible. It can be said that whoever shows it will make money. Naturally, there are theater chains rushing to show it. (To be continued)
