Entertainment: Starting with a complete collapse

"That's for the best."

Su Qing nodded.

"Love is Not Blind" has finished filming and will be released next month, so Su Qing doesn't think too much about it. However, she knows that she can no longer work with Ma Li's husband.

There's always the risk of something going wrong, and all the investments will go down the drain. It's like a ticking time bomb. They're married but still not honest. They're not tall, and they have quite a temper.

He's already acting arrogantly even before he's become a big star. If he becomes famous, what will he do? Dong Sheng Pictures will definitely not use an actor like this again.

After lunch, Su Qing chatted with Ma Li for a while longer before leaving the restaurant with her.

If Duan Yi could be secured, she wouldn't have to participate even if the boss insisted on having her as a mentor on "Beyond Class." Now that Duan Yi has refused, she has no choice but to participate. However, it doesn't matter much, as it's only for the first season. Once this season is finished, there's a possibility of recording a second season, and the boss will definitely not let her serve as a mentor again.

When it comes to reducing production costs, my boss... really knows how to do it.

With all four mentors selected, the recording of the variety show "Beyond Class" can proceed as normal. Back in her car, Su Qing made a phone call, and after the other party gave her an address, Su Qing drove there.

About half an hour.

The car was parked in the underground parking lot of an upscale residential complex.

"Who is it?" Hearing the doorbell ring, Lin Xian's wife, who had just finished lunch, asked as she opened the door. Upon seeing a very beautiful and elegant woman, Lin Xian's wife, Tao Wanting, asked疑惑地问道, "Who are you looking for?"

"It's you."

Li Yan, who stayed at Lin Xian's house for lunch, was furious when she saw Su Qing. She said, "Huang Min is really shameless. I asked him to give me face, but he wouldn't. So he turned around and asked you to come over."

"Sister Li"

Su Qing greeted Li Yan with a smile.

"This is……"

Lin Xian asked.

"The general manager of the entertainment company owned by Huang Min"

Li Yan replied irritably, and then said to Su Qing, "Don't bother, Lin Xian won't agree unless you go back and persuade Huang Min to let Yang Dong go."

"Sister Li, I remember Yang Dong absolutely refused to let my boss go back then."

Su Qing smiled and said, "Sometimes, don't blame my boss for being ruthless. Put yourself in his shoes. You were driven to the brink of suicide, and that person still wouldn't let you go. What would you do in that situation? To put it bluntly, the trouble Lin Wan caused for the 'Terror Live' crew was all because Yang Dong helped them. He poached Teacher Zhou with a supporting role from a TV series and the lighting technician. You should know that my boss was at a point where he couldn't afford to lose. If the movie's box office performance wasn't good, that would be understandable. But Yang Dong sabotaged things for Lin Wan. If we lost, how would my boss feel? You can't always look at things from your own perspective. Sometimes you have to see things from other people's perspectives. Yang Dong is just unemployed now, but after working in the film industry for so many years, he should still have a lot of savings. It won't affect his life at all. You know what situation my boss was in back then. Losing once means losing everything, and he couldn't even continue living a normal life."

Taking the water poured by Lin Xian's wife, Su Qing thanked her and then continued to Li Yan, "So sometimes you really should look at Yang Dong's problems more. The matter is indeed over, but an apology needs to be sincere and show genuine concern, not just empty words. To put it realistically, if my boss lets Yang Dong off so easily, will he choose to forgive him again if a similar situation arises in the future?" "You've been talking too much today."

Li Yan said angrily.

"It's mainly because you told me about the falling out between Director Lin Xian and Boying Pictures."

Su Qing replied with a smile.

She sat on the sofa and looked at Director Lin Xian.

As the general manager of Dongsheng Pictures, Su Qing is no stranger to directors in the entertainment industry, especially top directors. Compared to directors who rely on their success with one film and then live off their past achievements, Director Lin Xian is undoubtedly much more capable.

The reason he's not as famous as Zhang Yi and Director Feng is mainly because this director's filming pace is too slow. It's normal for a film to take two or three years to shoot, and some even take more than five years. However, even so, his cinematography skills are beyond doubt. Su Qing thought for a moment and said, "Director Lin, you wouldn't refuse to even talk to our company because of Sister Li's matter, would you?"

"Won't"

Lin Xian waved his hand.

"That's good"

Su Qing nodded and said, "Let me first tell you the terms our company is offering you..."

Please visit [website address] to see the latest chapter! Address: dEqixs.oRg Li Yan immediately perked up her ears; she also wanted to know what conditions Huang Min would offer Director Lin Xian.

Su Qing continued, "The company will provide you with scripts. You'll shoot five movies for Dongsheng Pictures, and if it's all packaged together, you'll get a director's fee of 30 million per movie. Another option is a revenue-sharing model, with a base director's fee of 15 million per movie and 10% of the net profit. However, there's one difference compared to your experience at Boying Pictures. In our company, the final editing rights are in the hands of our boss. That means after you finish shooting, you can do post-production first. If there are no problems with the internal screening, then we'll use your version. Otherwise, the boss will redo the post-production. Normally, as long as you shoot according to the script, there shouldn't be any problems."

"These conditions don't seem too demanding."

Lin Xian pondered for a moment and replied, "And the restrictions are quite significant."

"really"

Su Qing agreed: "But after you have two successful films in a row, the company will invest 200 million in you. You can use that 200 million to make whatever you want to make, just don't exceed that limit. Apart from that..."

Su Qing paused slightly before continuing, "Our boss said you're very good at action scenes. After completing your collaboration with Dongsheng Pictures, if you continue working together, he'll write a script for an overseas action film for you, and then have you film it abroad."

"hehe"

Lin Xian chuckled twice: "At my age, don't make empty promises. I can't keep up with that. Signing up for five movies? Who knows when I'll finish filming them?"

"Director Lin, you seem to take a long time to shoot military-themed films. Do you also take a long time to shoot other types of films?"

Su Qing asked this question with a smile. Seeing Lin Xian frown, Su Qing replied, "If I remember correctly, you film police and gangster movies quite quickly. Two a year shouldn't be difficult, right?"

"I can't film it," Lin Xian shook his head. "The fastest movie I've ever filmed took three months, but this movie, I spent a year and a half just on pre-production. I can't match the speed of your boss, Huang Min."

"I remember you had a movie that was filmed in about seventeen days."

Su Qing spoke up.

"Yes, there are, but those were low-budget, quick-shooting products, incomparable to what we have now."

Lin Xian said earnestly, "I really can't speed up my filming pace right now, but... if Huang Min can soften his attitude towards Yang Dong, I can consider it."

"..."

Su Qing was taken aback, and she subconsciously looked at Li Yan.

Even under these circumstances, he still wanted to help Li Yan resolve Yang Dong's issues, and even expedited her process.

Su Qing didn't believe it was just a casual acquaintance.
