Fooling Huayu for Thirty Years

Chapter 664 3000 Million in Hand! Keep the deception going! They've even taken it international!

The core of Brecht's system is 'thinking'.

Regardless of how you think, whether you think good or bad.

As long as the 'audience' thinks, then it's a success.

And now...

"Honey, I've recently discovered a really great project."

"What project?"

"It's the TV series version of 'The Message,' which is currently showing in theaters."

"what?"

Actually, by the time Gan Wei got to this point, Jia Yueting already understood completely.

I'm already thinking about it.

Of course, the first thing that comes to mind is cursing Ma Xun.

You actually came looking for my wife!

However, no matter how angry Jia Yueting is right now, he can't vent it.

Because he could see very clearly that Gan Wei was already very interested in this project.

Moreover, as Gan Wei recounted the story, Jia Yueting herself became very interested in the TV series "The Message".

Overall... this TV series "The Message" is pretty good!

The movie is so popular now, and the entire spy thriller genre has become popular as a result.

Making it into a TV series is something everyone is eagerly anticipating.

However, Jia Yueting also knew that if he wanted to film this movie, it would really be a long shot... he would first have to pay 3000 million to buy a ticket!

Damn it! This is infuriating!
Jia Yueting was definitely angrier than others because he was an accountant.

From an accounting perspective, how should these 30 million yuan be distributed?
Seriously, this is no easy task.

But then something interesting happened.

It seemed that Gan Wei had seen through her husband's inner problem, and she said something quite considerate.

“If it’s inconvenient for you, then let me participate in this project.”

What a wonderful wife!

However, Jia Yueting understood that he was the one who had to make the decision, otherwise, problems might arise.

"No problem, don't worry. Leave this project to me, and later... my wife will take charge of this project."

Jia Yueting is showing off her role as a model husband.

Gan Wei was naturally very happy to hear this, and she didn't say anything negative. She even chatted with her husband about the details of the project.

To be honest, Gan Wei really likes this project.

Moreover, Gan Wei also has a certain understanding of herself.

Her appearance wasn't particularly outstanding; compared to her best friend, she looked like Qin Lan.

Qin Lan is truly beautiful; her face is perfect for acting.

Gan Wei was somewhat jealous, but she also knew that such jealousy was useless.

Instead, we should leverage our strengths.

Gan Wei knew very well what her advantages were. No matter how beautiful Qin Lan was, she was just an actress.

But Gan Wei is different; she has a powerful background and a husband.

She could totally be a boss!

Therefore, "The Message" is a good opportunity for practice.

Of course, Gan Wei wouldn't tell Jia Yueting about these thoughts.

Wouldn't it be better to wait until she achieves results before making any decisions?

And so, it seems that the couple's ideas have begun to diverge.

……

The Light Building.

"Mr. Ma, Mr. Jia's side has agreed."

"Oh, that's how it is."

"Mr. Ma, you're not going to change your mind again, are you?"

"Haha... Look how scared you are! When have I ever gone back on my word? When have I ever broken a promise?"

"Yes! Mr. Ma's reputation in the industry is beyond reproach!"

Chen Guofu was very happy because the film "1942" had gained another strong ally.

Unfortunately, this movie really needs a lot of funding.

When Feng Xiaogang and Liu Zhenyun were discussing this, they were very clear that this movie would be very difficult to make; otherwise, they wouldn't have waited from 1993 until now.

Everything is ready now, except for the money.

For Ma Xun, Enlight Media is, after all, a new employer for Feng Xiaogang, Chen Guofu, and Liu Zhenyun.

Although Ma Xun is wealthy and powerful, he certainly won't listen to Feng Xiaogang in everything like the Wang brothers used to.

It's worth noting that Feng Xiaogang and Ma Xun had a history of conflict.

In Chen Guofu's view, Feng Xiaogang was indeed no match for Ma Xun.

Ma Xun is a real big boss; you, Feng Xiaogang, are still several levels below him.

Therefore, if another capital force can be introduced to provide some checks and balances, it would allow Feng Xiaogang to have a greater voice and gain more control.

This is very necessary.

The reason Chen Guofu and Feng Xiaogang had such a good initial discussion with Zhang Zhao was precisely because of this. But right now... Boss Ma Xun is still the most capable.

He easily earned 3000 million from Jia Yueting.

The funds for filming the TV series "The Message" have been secured.

After all, they could have used the original film set from the movie version; that place probably hasn't been demolished yet.

Wait a minute, could it be that Ma Xun was already planning the TV series version while filming "The Message"?

If that's the case... Chen Guofu felt a chill run down his spine at the thought!
Because Ma Xun like this is truly terrifying.

Ma Xun, of course, had no idea that Chen Guofu was now showing signs of becoming like Dihua.

But he definitely didn't want to be that Skeleton King. That guy was just a skeleton; even with top-tier succubi around, he couldn't do anything.

It's missing a root, isn't it?

Right now, Jia Yueting has been tricked again, so...

"Mr. Chen, let me ask you something. What was Jia Yueting's expression like when he told you about this?"

Huh? What's the question?
Chen Guofu was a little stunned when he heard this, but the person in front of him was a top figure in the entertainment industry, so he had no choice but to answer.

"Well, let me think... that... it seems okay."

Upon hearing this, Ma Xun frowned slightly and prompted, "Really? Don't you think he looks a little green?"

Huh? Why is this happening?

Chen Guofu quickly thought again, "You know what!"
Thinking about it carefully, Jia Yueting's expression at the time was indeed not very good.

So...

"Oh, well... it seems there is a little bit."

Chen Guofu's description is truly interesting.

After hearing this, Ma Xun laughed heartily, "Alright, you guys go ahead and work on '1942.' I won't interfere with anything except funding."

This……

Hearing such a statement from a big shot should normally make one happy.

However, Chen Guofu's inner thoughts were rather strange.

Because he and Feng Xiaogang did a lot of things and were wary of Ma Xun, all so that they could make the movie without any pressure.

And now, look at the attitude of that big shot...

Good grief, Ma Xun inadvertently dealt Chen Guofu a blow to his ego.

And our top leaders themselves don't even know it.

After all, he had just said it so casually.

Actually, Ma Xun's moves were truly brilliant.

Jia Yueting was completely manipulated by him, not because of any physical infidelity, but because of the psychological manipulation.

Ma Xun had already sensed that Accountant Jia was probably going to fight him to the death.

It's okay, I know you haven't been around for many years, I'll stay with you now.

Currently, Ma Xun is gradually gaining the upper hand.

As for Feng Xiaogang and Chen Guofu... Ma Xun's attitude can't be described as contemptuous, but he didn't take them too seriously either.

That's why it has this effect.

Of course, you can't blame Ma Xun for looking down on people.

It was as if the reason he dismissed Chen Guofu in such a way was simply because he had something more important to do.

The next question is about the release of "Inception" at the end of the year!
Han Sanping had already mentioned it to him before; this year's Hollywood blockbusters are coming in strong.

Although this can be considered a Hollywood blockbuster, it is also a Sino-US co-production.

Whenever I think of Sino-US co-productions, I can't help but think of Mr. Liu... To be fair, Mr. Liu's professional skills are impeccable, but what he did in those two years really ruined his reputation.

Let's get back to the present.

How does Ma Xun deal with those aggressive Hollywood blockbusters?

That's right, he won't change the schedule!

So, what he's facing directly is "2012"!
This movie is a work by the great director Emmerich, whose previous films were quite impressive.

Independence Day, Godzilla, The Day After Tomorrow... almost every one of them is a masterpiece.

Moreover, it is essential to know a key point.

That is, Emmerich is a genuine rich kid, and he used to be considered an aristocrat.

Yes, this guy's European background means he's no ordinary person.

How will Ma Xun deal with this guy?
Of course, the key is still this movie, "2012"!
Ma Xun made an interesting arrangement.

"Director Martin, I can tell you clearly that Director Satoshi Kon has agreed to come to China to participate in our event."

"Oh, really?"

Yes, this is a call to Martin Scorsese.

After he spoke with director Martin Scorsese, who said he would consider it, he called him again.

"Director Satoshi Kon, Director Martin Scorsese has agreed to the trip to China."

Ok? ? ?
Satoshi Kon's answer was one of great fear.

"Okay! I'll definitely come too!"

Ma Xun is really something else!
Keep bluffing!

This time they even managed to fool two internationally renowned directors...
