Huayu: A Commercial Director

Chapter 200 Group Photo, A Date with Oscars
Major media outlets have reported that winning the Golden Globe Award is a big deal.

Although it's a foreign language film, it was ultimately obtained by one of our own people.

Chen Shouzhe does not have a dual identity; the authorities are well aware of his identity information.

As we can see, some official media outlets have also reported on this matter, further enhancing Chen Shouzhe's influence.

Many people posted on Weibo to celebrate, and Lao Guo even shared a photo of the two of them with the caption, "Congratulations to my son."

Yu Qian was the same; he sent messages to both familiar and unfamiliar people, and those who wanted to build a closer relationship.

There was one company that wasn't happy.

light.

As darkness fell over one side and dawn broke over the other, many of Enlight Media's shareholders and directors were cursing and swearing.

The person being criticized is definitely Wang Changtian, the largest shareholder and chairman, because at the board meeting, Wang Changtian was the one who least wanted Chen Shouzhe to join Enlight Media.

Why is that?

He felt that Guangming should not be too closely tied to individuals, otherwise it would become like Huayi, where the company's stock price was affected by Feng Xiaogang's influence.

He hopes that Enlight Media will be a healthy and independent company, and he also doesn't want to be influenced by Chen Shouzhe.

The best relationship is one that's like that of friends.

Don't involve money.

Unfortunately, he forgot that over the years, Guangming had relied on Chen Shou and had sucked a lot of blood from him. He only wanted to gain benefits without wanting to give anything in return. How could that be possible?

Faced with the shareholders' challenge, Wang Changtian had no choice but to stabilize the situation for now and talk to Chen Shouzhe later.

The Weibo was buzzing, but Chen Shou was sleeping. Although he hadn't adjusted to the time difference, he had drunk quite a bit and was still very tired. As for exercising, that was out of the question. He would definitely be able to keep up his fighting spirit when he was slightly tipsy, but after drinking too much, how could he possibly have any other thoughts?

Yang Mi, on the other hand, posted a lot of photos on Weibo, and her Weibo comments were the most lively.

First, there was a photo of her holding the trophy and certificate, then a group photo of her and Chen Shouzhe on the red carpet, followed by a group photo of Chen Shouzhe, her, and a group of foreigners.

This photo is full of foreigners; very few people in China would recognize them.

However, many professionals in the industry have begun to name these people.

Wow, they're all big shots.

Who are those foreigners?

"I think I saw Matt Damon in the background."

"Matt Damon is nothing compared to them. From left to right, they are the vice president of Legendary Pictures, the vice president of Fox, the vice president of Warner Bros., the vice president of Columbus, the vice president of Disney, and the vice president of Lionsgate. Goodness, they are all Hollywood giants. This is more valuable than photos with celebrities. Director Chen's connections in Hollywood are not simple."

I only realized after reading the explanations in the comments that the people in the photos are all executives of Hollywood film giants, connections that even some domestic film company bosses would envy.

Other celebrities were even more envious when they saw this, and they wanted to try to get on the red carpet. Yang Mi entered the top circle of Hollywood through Chen Shouzhe and left this photo.

Although she is not the publicly acknowledged boss's wife, everyone should give her face from now on.

Yang Mi woke up at noon after sleeping, and was already dressed up for the banquet.

Will had already booked a restaurant and went back last night to host a banquet with his brothers and friends, so he decided to treat everyone to tonight.

After getting up, Chen Shou ate something and then went to Lionsgate.

"Chen, congratulations on winning the Golden Globe Award." Lionsgate greeted him with the vice chairman he'd met the previous night, along with James Wan. The funding for the first two Saw movies had been secured, and Chen Shouzhe brought Lu Sen along. Yang Mi and her assistant had gone out to play; Chen Shouzhe had his bodyguards take them shopping for some things, as they were returning tomorrow.

"Didn't you find Saw enough?" Chen Shou asked Wen Ziren.

"Two films a year? I feel like I can make more movies faster," James Wan said with a smile.

“That will have to wait until all development is complete. Now, while the film is still going strong, we should release the sequel as soon as possible. Anyway, we’ve already given you the script,” Chen Shou said.

"Okay, I'll finish filming the rest of the movie as soon as possible." James Wan nodded.

"Once you've finished making Saw, we can talk about other projects."

"Alright, then we'll just have to wait for your good news."

The two films together earned Chen Shouzhe over 100 million US dollars. Horror movies are such a lucrative business. His company is registered in the Cayman Islands, just like other companies in China, all for the purpose of tax avoidance.

This is his Blue Star Company in the United States. As for Shouzhe Film Industry and Xiaoxiaomeng in China, they are both registered in the capital and pay all the taxes due. He also keeps a close eye on Yang Mi's side to ensure that they do not evade taxes.

After leaving Lionsgate, I went to Warner Bros., where they were still preparing The Matrix. A certain immigrant kung fu emperor was asking for an exorbitant price, so Warner Bros. eventually gave up on him and hired other people instead.

Chen Shouzhe had an investment share, and he also felt it was inappropriate, but he didn't speak up, as it would easily offend people if he did.

After all, that guy is now getting too close to the guy at Alibaba. The guy at Alibaba has such a high status in China that everyone calls him "daddy." This guy has reached another level.

Chen Shouzhe felt it was best to stay away from this kind of person. Even though he had tried to be friendly to him many times, Chen Shouzhe only responded politely. It was best not to get involved.

Will treated everyone to dinner that evening. It was just the few of them. He knew Chen Shouzhe's personality, as he was filming a movie with him, and he knew Chen Shouzhe wouldn't let him invite anyone else. So the dinner was held at his house, and a Michelin-starred chef was invited to come and cook.

Sandra's family and George's family were there, along with Will's family and the actress Sandy's family, making it a four-family dinner.

After eating and drinking his fill, Will happily sang. He started out as a singer before becoming an actor.

"Everyone, there's also the Oscars, so there might be more good news."

“I hope it will come true,” Sandra said, her eyes shining.

Will was also excited; he longed for the Oscar statuette even more than the Golden Globe.

George shrugged helplessly. His role was too small, making a nomination difficult. He envied Will, who had already won a Golden Globe, so an Oscar nomination shouldn't be a problem.

"Director, if there's a movie that suits me, please think of me," George said with a wry smile.

“Me too,” Sandy said, raising her hand.

"I'm definitely used to using my friends' services, but if it's suitable, I'll give you guys priority," Chen Shou nodded.

"grateful."

After the dinner party ended, Yang Mi posted another Weibo post, which was a group photo of their gathering.

"A dinner party at the home of Golden Globe winner Mr. Will Smith, with an Oscar invitation."

Her Weibo post made a lot of people incredibly envious.

The Golden Globe red carpet has already made her somewhat famous abroad, and she has close cooperation with many brands. It is expected that she will be involved in many advertisements next year, and there is also the Oscars next. Thinking of this, they are filled with envy and jealousy, but that's all they can do.

　My mom is being discharged from the hospital tomorrow, and I should be able to update more frequently starting the day after tomorrow. Thanks for your support!
