Huayu Entertainment, all I can do is make bad movies.

"The news media these days are a mess. They don't do anything useful, just spread fake news. A 19-centimeter baby? How can anyone believe something like that!"

At Haiwang Films, Yu Dong put down his newspaper with a look of disdain.

Wang Hai smiled upon hearing this and said, "Let's go."

The two were going to meet the owner of the audio-visual copyright company.

The other party's offer was not high, only 50.

With the revenue share offered by Huayi, Wang Hai was reluctant to sell the audio-visual copyrights so easily.

I plan to release the film in the video market under the title "One Cut of the Dead".

But business may be business, but goodwill is important. Since they might have to cooperate again in the future, Wang Hai booked a restaurant and treated the two to a simple meal.

"Mr. Wang, 50 is quite a price. If we delay any longer, the entire market will be taken over by pirated discs."

"If you agree to change the title, I'll sell it for 30."

Wu Yongren shook his head repeatedly.

He was willing to pay a high price for the audio-visual rights to "Titans II" because he was interested in the title, which had a public screening license.

How can using other film titles mislead the public and make money?

Titans 2 is a good movie.

But no matter how deep the plot is, can it still attract more viewers than old Hong Kong movies with their action-packed action?

Instead of spending 30 to acquire the little-known film "One Cut of the Dead," they might as well go back to pirating Hong Kong movies.

If you don't see eye to eye, even half a sentence is too much.

Wu Yongren looked down on Wang Hai, who was arrogant and unrealistic. He took a small sip of his drink, said goodbye in a hurry, and left.

"These Guangdong bosses made money on the front lines of reform, and they're really arrogant."

Wang Hai chuckled and said, "No way, they're near Hong Kong. These days, efficiency is key, and the pace of life is fast. If we can't reach an agreement, why waste time?"

"What are you planning to do? Are you really not going to sell it?" Yu Dong asked curiously.

"Keep it for now, we don't need three or five hundred thousand for the time being." After saying that, Wang Hai emphasized, "You should give them the money they owe you. Huayi transferred it to me a long time ago."

Speaking of this, Yu Dong was really puzzled.

Logically, this shouldn't be the case.

Huayi just gave them that much money without hesitation.

It doesn't mean that we must seize by force.

However, it's still profitable to deposit millions into a bank to earn interest for a few months, or to invest the money and then transfer it to Haiwang Films a year or two later.

Huayi has gone completely mad for some reason.

This put him in a somewhat passive position.

"The money will be deposited into the bank account no later than next month."

Wang Hai nodded and smiled, "Okay, yours is only a little over 30, there's no point in urging you."

The box office success of "Titans 2" has basically come to an end.

Haiwang Films earned approximately 250 million in box office revenue.

Including the overseas rights sold, the domestic hidden audio-visual rights, and the television broadcasting rights that the sales staff are currently negotiating, "Titans 2" earned Wang Hai at least 300 million yuan.

Wang Hai was completely satisfied.

While most ordinary people toil and struggle for a few hundred yuan a month, he has already successfully entered the ranks of the moderately wealthy.

It took only a little over five months.

This is hard for ordinary people to imagine.

Wang Hai also felt it wasn't easy.

After all, his actions were subject to systemic constraints.

But in the end, his cleverness prevailed.

"Any news about your next project?"

"We're currently casting actors. Schools at Beijing Film Academy and the Central Academy of Drama have started, so I'll go check them out later to see if there are any suitable candidates."

Both of them had other commitments, so the dinner ended abruptly, and they went their separate ways.

Wang Hai first went to the set of "True Love is Like a Dream".

What's going on?

Several months have passed, and Gao Yuanyuan's filming is still not finished.

The Audi 100 sped to the train station.

In the station hall, the five assistants who were waiting for Gao Yuanyuan came from all directions when they saw Wang Hai.

"Boss!"

Wang Hai nodded: "Why hasn't the filming been finished yet?"

"This is the final scene."

Wang Hai nodded and said, "How's Teng doing on set? He hasn't given you any trouble, has he?"

"They're alright, quite friendly."

Four out of the five people spoke in unison.

Only one of the older men whispered, "The director tried to invite Gao Yuanyuan to dinner a few times to discuss the role, but I turned it down by saying that Gao Yuanyuan's mother was in poor health and she had to go home to take care of her elderly mother."

Wang Hai's eyes lit up.

This young man has a bright future.

How could you tell from his casual and subtle question?

"What's your name?" Wang Hai asked with a smile.

"Boss, my name is Ma Niu. A few years ago, when the TV series 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms' was being filmed in our area, I helped out on set and fell in love with acting. Later, I spent a few years wandering around in Beijing, and when I saw that the company was recruiting actors, I came to Haiwang Film and Television."

Ma Niu introduced himself.

He was telling the truth.

After joining Haiwang Film and Television, seeing that she was always out of Wang Hai's sight, she actively signed up to become Gao Yuanyuan's assistant.

It wasn't that he had a crush on Gao Yuanyuan.

But the years he spent wandering outside taught him some lessons.

Successful people rarely do meaningless things.

Gao Yuanyuan wasn't that important to Haiwang Films; she was just an unknown actress.

Ironically, this very young actor required Wang Hai to assign five assistants to protect him.

Fan Xiaopang, who is also an actress in the company, only has one assistant.

What does it mean?

Wang Hai took a liking to it.

Therefore, when Ma Niu arrived at the "True Love Like a Dream" production team, while the other crew members were getting along well with the lower-level crew members and the director, he remained unmoved and repeatedly blocked the director's suggestion to spend time alone with Gao Yuanyuan.

Now, his actions have paid off.

Wang Hai took the initiative to ask his name.

"Okay, I got it. Good job."

Wang Hai patted Ma Niu on the shoulder and greeted Teng Tao.

"What do you mean?"

Before Wang Hai could even ask for the man, Teng Tao began to criticize him with dissatisfaction.

He spent 5 yuan to hire Gao Yuanyuan and employed 5 assistants, but in the end, it was all for naught.

Let alone showing favor in private.

Even when the crew was discussing the scene, there were always people watching him intently, giving him no chance to pursue anyone.

Wang Hai scoffed and asked dismissively, "Is the filming finished yet?"

"Just finished filming."

Wang Hai shrugged, too lazy to pay attention to Teng Tao anymore, and waved to Gao Yuanyuan: "All done, time to wrap up."

"You took 5 yuan from me and just left like that?" Teng Tao said, his face contorted.

He was truly unwilling to accept it.

It is only after a shiver that one feels empty.

He tried his best for months, but he couldn't even touch Gao Yuanyuan's hand.

The duck that was almost in his grasp was about to fly away; the lost money and accumulated anger made Teng Tao's eyes bloodshot.

"What? Did I force you to pay me 5 yuan? Are you paying actors to make movies, or to hire prostitutes? That's incredibly low!"

Wang Hai finished speaking with a displeased expression, glanced at Teng Tao who was poised to attack, and said disdainfully, "What, you want to make a move? I advise you to be more careful, otherwise your girlfriend might mistake you for someone else tonight!"

"What are you talking about? Director Teng is the same age as us, and he doesn't have a girlfriend yet."

After removing her makeup, Gao Yuanyuan chuckled and reminded him of Wang Hai's last words.

Wang Hai feigned surprise and said, "No way, did I hear that right? There's a female student at Beijing Film Academy surnamed Liu whose boyfriend is named Teng Tao."

Upon hearing this, Teng Tao's imposing manner vanished instantly.

Seeing this, Wang Hai sneered and led his men out of the film set.

After dismissing the five men who had been traveling, Gao Yuanyuan, sitting in the passenger seat, angrily demanded, "Give me back my money!"

"What money?"

"Don't think I don't know, you asked Director Teng for 5 yuan in film fees."

Gao Yuanyuan puffed out her cheeks and said.

"Wow, your lifeline is that good? You'll live to at least 80, if not 100."

While Wang Hai changed the subject, he took the opportunity to squeeze Gao Yuanyuan's small hand and said with a grin, "Don't move, let me take another look at your cleavage."

"No, you pervert..."

Gao Yuanyuan broke free of her left hand, her face flushed and puffed out in a huff.
