Entertainment: Starting with a complete collapse

"Um"

Upon hearing his agent's words, Director Feng nodded in agreement.

He couldn't help but sigh, "Lin Xian's life isn't going well. I know Yu Cheng like the back of my hand. He treats directors like human beings when he can make money, but once he loses money, he turns on you faster than flipping a book. Huang Min is the real deal. Last summer, 'The Witch' was the box office champion, and 'Extreme Job' was also the box office champion during the Spring Festival. Even 'Letters to Grandma,' which his mother hired a director to make, was still the box office champion, making 20 to 30 million! How did they even make that?"

The last question.

It felt like a torture of the soul.

One film achieving a big win with a small budget is one thing, since luck is a tricky thing to predict, but how many films have done this?! Every single one is like this, leaving no room for other directors.

"That's how it was filmed."

Zhang Shuo replied.

"I didn't ask you."

Director Feng retorted angrily, "I don't need your answer. Of course I know how it was filmed. By the way, didn't you say Lin Wan got out of prison? Find out what she's doing!"

"What do you want to do!?"

Zhang Shuo asked instinctively, "I don't want to."

Director Feng replied, "Although I sometimes engage in some underhanded tactics with female celebrities, even if Huang Min doesn't want this woman anymore, I wouldn't dare touch her. It's too bad luck. I want to know her whereabouts. If this woman wants to return to the entertainment industry, you'll see who she hires. I'll tell anyone who uses her that they're going to mess with me, damn it."

As he spoke, Director Feng cursed again, "This damned woman ruined everything. Because of her meddling, we're practically ready to release the production cost details for this movie. It was a perfectly good money-making business, but she messed it up, and I, the middleman, can't even make a profit."

"There's no need to go through all that trouble."

Zhang Shuo replied, "Now, not only you have a problem with her, but many directors do too. Under these circumstances, she won't even get a small role. Not to mention that this woman's reputation is terrible and she will be boycotted by the audience, even if there is no audience boycott, she has incurred public wrath and will have no way to return to the entertainment industry."

"Of course I know."

Director Feng angrily said, "I just wanted to express my dissatisfaction with her. A comeback... a complete rip-off! With her awful appearance, even a minor supporting role would require censorship. 'Letters to Grandma' is something I'm incredibly envious of. I've made movies my whole life, and I've never made a film that profitable. Are men who have attempted suicide all blessed by God? If that's the case, then I... I'd better not. That kid Huang Min was so young and almost didn't survive. If I tried, I'd probably be dead after one try. I haven't lived enough yet, and I don't want to die anytime soon. By the way, I heard that kid Huang Min is starring in 'New World' himself."

"There are two main characters; he played one, and on anniversary, he played the other."

Zhang Shuo replied.

"If this kid's acting is good when the movie is released, I'll invite him to play the lead role. He can help me revise the script and promote the movie. If I ever have something come up and can't film, he can help me film it."

Finally, Director Feng added, "Damn, he's really talented. I wish he were my son."

"We can recruit him to be your son-in-law," Zhang Shuo said with a smile.

"Go to hell, my little girl is only fifteen years old."

Director Feng immediately cursed, then asked, "What do you think of my idea?! Inviting that kid Huang Min to be the male lead?"

"It's something to think about."

Zhang Shuo replied with a smile.

This is a real joke. With Huang Min's current capital, even if you offered him 50 million in film fees, he would never agree to act in it. He would rather use that time to write a script, make a movie, and release it to make money. He has no time to pay attention to Lao Feng, let alone help him revise the script and make a movie. If such a good thing really happened, Zhang Shuo would sell everything he owns to cooperate with Huang Min.

Why bother revising the script? He can just provide the script directly.

I don't need to help him film. I can just hand over the director's position to him and then I don't need to worry about the rest. I can just wait for the movie to be released and then split the profits based on the box office.

Just like director Feng Yucheng thought.

As a sixth-generation director, Lin Xian is currently being verbally abused by Yu Cheng, the chairman of Boying Film Industry. Yu Cheng's insults are extremely offensive and loud, and even employees passing by his office can hear them clearly.

"With so much money, you only managed to get this little bit of box office revenue? I could hire a dog to direct and it would be better than you..."

Please visit...to see the latest chapter! Address: dEqixs.oRg All sorts of sounds came out of Yu Cheng's mouth.

Fifty-year-old Lin Xian stood across from his desk, silent. He hadn't expected the failure of "Jiaolong." He had previously directed two or three similar films, all of which performed strongly at the box office, until "Jiaolong," which was pulled from theaters by the company, suddenly failed.

The rating isn't too bad either.

Previously, movies with this rating, thanks to their high production budgets, would easily gross at least 2 billion yuan, if not 3 billion. However, this year's summer movie season taught them a harsh lesson.

Lin Xian felt frustrated because the film he directed did not achieve good results, so he did not retaliate against Yu Cheng's insults.

When he heard him say that he was not even as good as a dog, Lin Xian finally couldn't hold back anymore. He said, "Chairman Yu, when I was making money for you, you didn't have this attitude. Now that the movie's box office hasn't met expectations, this is your attitude! Don't forget, you were the one who insisted that I make this project. I said that if we made it this way, the production cost would definitely be very high. What did you say? You said to go ahead and make it boldly, even if we lose money, it doesn't matter. Now that we've really lost money, you start cursing. No wonder a boss like you can't grow the company. If you can't afford to play, then don't play. When you invited me to join the company, you talked a good game."

"roll"

Seeing that Lin Xian dared to talk back, Yu Cheng said angrily.

"You don't need to tell them to get lost."

Lin Xian sneered and said, "Don't I still have a contract with the company for one more film? How much is the penalty for breach of contract? I'll have my agent transfer it to the company's account in a bit. Boss Yu, our contract ends here. You don't need to hire me to make any more films in the future. This time I've seen what kind of person you really are. I didn't believe what I heard before, but now I find that you're even more outrageous than the rumors suggest."

With a "bang".

The office door slammed shut. After his company's top director had truly left, Yu Cheng stood there for a long while before coming to his senses. Then, he opened his office door, rushed out, and immediately asked the company employees, "Where's Director Lin?!"

Upon learning that the other party had headed towards the underground parking garage, Yu Cheng quickly ran over. He was not tall, only 1.7 meters, but weighed as much as 300 kilograms, so he began to pant after only a few steps, but he did not stop.
