Entertainment: Starting with a complete collapse

"director?"

Huang Min was having trouble diagnosing Li Yan's pulse.

This old woman's thinking was rather unconventional. When Huang Min received her call, he thought she was calling to talk about Yang Dong again, and he had already prepared his answer.

Then the woman asked him if he wanted a director.

"Sixth Generation Directors"

Li Yan glanced at Lin Xian and said, "He just had a bad flop, but I think if you write him a good script and let him direct it, he should still have potential."

Li Yan's voice wasn't loud, but Lin Xian still heard it.

If someone else had described him as a "flop director," even if he had actually flopped, they would definitely be angry. But it was Li Yan who said it, which made Lin Xian, who had been scolded by Yu Cheng not long ago and was in a bad mood, feel much better.

It seems... she's still the same as before.

Instead of keeping things to himself, Lin Xian thought for a moment and then said with a smile, "Even though I'm bald, I still look handsome in a suit."

"Director Lin Xian, right!?"

Huang Min didn't hear Lin Xian's self-deprecating humor, but he already knew who Li Yan was talking about. The news of "Jiaolong's" withdrawal from theaters had already spread throughout the entertainment industry; the film had suffered enormous losses. Even though it was only July, it had already secured its place as the most unprofitable film of the year, a position no other film could challenge.

"So, do you want it or not?"

Li Yan asked the question.

"..."

Huang Min pondered for a moment and said, "Let's not talk about Yang Dong."

"So you mean I helped you for nothing, but you can't do me a favor in return?"

Li Yan said angrily.

"Your understanding is correct."

Huang Min laughed.

"Then let's not talk about it."

Li Yan spoke first.

"You have quite a wide network of connections. You can even make decisions about Director Lin Xian. I've always felt that the entertainment industry is a circle. Either you end up in someone else's house, or someone else ends up in yours," Huang Min laughed. "I was already surprised to hear that a host and a female teacher from an entertainment company used to be in a relationship. I never expected there would be a story about a female agent and a big director."

"Stop talking nonsense and just say what you're going to do me. I'm helping you with this, are you going to give me the courtesy of doing me this favor?"

Li Yan replied.

I am not threatened by others.

Huang Min laughed, "If you're simply helping me, then I'll accept your friendship. In the future, when you mentor newcomers, I'll definitely save suitable roles for you. But forget about Yang Dong. However, Li Yan… I'm not trying to criticize you, but you're too rigid. You need to learn to be more flexible. I'm targeting Yang Dong, not you. You don't need to be so fixated on him. You're not getting any younger; don't you want to earn more money? You definitely do, right? Then pick a newcomer to mentor. As for Yang Dong, you're not his mother. To put it bluntly, you're just an employee. Now that the company has gone bankrupt, they can't pay you a single penny. What are you still doing here? If you stayed, you could extort some land from the company, that would be fine, but you'd get nothing. You're over fifty this year; how many more years can you work? At most, only a few years. Instead of using these years to earn more money for retirement, you're wasting your time with Yang Dong. Don't waste your time until you're worn out before he even recovers."

"If you don't target him, he'll recover quickly."

Li Yan retorted irritably.

"hehe"

Huang Min chuckled twice and said, "Alright, I won't take your favor. I only reminded you a few more times because you really wanted to help me. Since you won't listen, I won't say anything more. Take care of yourself!"

Seeing that Huang Min had really hung up the phone, Li Yan looked incredulous.

This guy... doesn't even want the director?!

Please visit...to see the latest chapter! Address: dEqixs.oRg You should know that this guy is the boss of an entertainment company, and every entertainment company boss wants a top director. Beautiful women are optional, but a director is a must.

After ending his call with Li Yan, Huang Min didn't hesitate much and contacted Su Qing directly, asking her to talk to Director Lin Xian.

The failure of "Jiaolong" does not mean that this great director is useless.

On the contrary, Lin Xian's camerawork skills are very strong, belonging to the top tier, especially in hardcore subjects.

Inside a private room of a private restaurant.

Wearing a blue long dress and a white T-shirt, Ma Li waited until Su Qing, the general manager of Dongsheng Film Industry, hung up the phone before continuing the previous conversation, asking, "Besides Teacher Zhou Nian, who else?"

Zhao Liyuan

Su Qing placed her phone on the table and said with a smile, "I originally planned to invite Teacher Duan Yi, but he declined without hesitation, so the rest is much simpler. Our company's Teacher Zhou Nian, national goddess Zhao Liyuan, plus you and me."

"How much appearance fee is your company planning to give me?"

Ma Li did not refuse.

She has rarely acted in TV dramas in recent years, but several of the TV dramas she starred in had high ratings. The main reason she agreed to the role was to repay Dong Sheng Film Company for letting her husband play the male lead in "Love is Not Blind".

Secondly... she also wanted to cultivate a good relationship with this company. She herself didn't need it, but she wanted to pave the way for her husband's entry into the film industry. In today's entertainment industry, while Dong Sheng Pictures might not be considered the strongest in terms of overall company strength, its film production capabilities were truly exceptional. For an entertainment company to produce a blockbuster film every three years was already quite impressive.

Dongsheng Pictures is different.

Since the founding of this entertainment company, it has produced blockbuster movies almost every year, and this year is no exception. Anyone could tell that "Letters to Grandma" would break 2 billion at the box office.

The reason it's relatively small now is because it's not listed on the stock exchange. Once it goes public, it will inevitably enter a phase of faster development, so she has to save face.

"Thirteen million"

Su Qing directly quoted out Ma Li's appearance fee.

"no problem"

"That depends on your husband."

Su Qing looked at Ma Li and said, "During the filming of 'Love is Not Blind,' he was somewhat disobedient to Director Tan, and the two had several arguments. I had to step in to smooth things over. If he continues like this, even if we have a good relationship, the company will not consider using him again."

Aside from having disagreements with the director.

Ma Li's husband had harassed Meng Shiya twice, so he didn't bother Jin Zhimei; otherwise, he would have been kicked out of the "Love is Not Blind" cast long ago, and no amount of pleading would have helped then. Su Qing didn't directly mention the harassment of Meng Shiya by Ma Li's husband, trying to save face for Ma Li.

Ma Li's expression was a little unpleasant, but after a while she still spoke up, "I'll keep him in check when I get back."
