Perfect Life

Vol 5 Chapter 89: simple

At the level of Qin Wei, once the new film is about to start, Huafei Film and Television will inevitably mobilize all the resources for him to use. This is the treatment that the big director deserves.

With the weight of Huafei Film and Television, although with the strong rise of Minghu Culture in the film, they and the three old big companies such as Oriental Media Group and Jinghua Film are no longer so strong and eye-catching, but in the Chinese film circle In other words, there is only one Minghu culture after all. In addition to the Minghu culture, the three major companies still firmly occupy the top dominant position in the industry.

Therefore, not long after the film "The Great Wall" started preparations, although the news media circles have not yet obtained first-hand information and materials, there are still a lot of news about the preparation of the film, at least in the upper layers of the film circle. , it's no longer a secret.

It's not easy for a film director to become famous, but after becoming famous, it's not easy to completely destroy this reputation, so that everyone loses confidence in him, and even doesn't even bother to pay attention.

Once a celebrity becomes a celebrity, as long as you are still active in this circle, you can be famous for many years, or even a lifetime, to a large extent.

Even in Hollywood with a high degree of commercialization, a great director who has already succeeded and proved his ability still has at least three chances to miss, not to mention in China, not to mention Qin Wei's level." National Pride" and "Master Class" director!

As a result, news about the film "The Great Wall" "planning to invest 100 million US dollars", "inviting Hollywood's top special effects team to create", "will invite Hollywood first-line superstars to join" and so on, soon spread to Li Qian's ears and It was Qi Jie who ran over and said it himself.

In Qin Wei's film, the cast and crew must be based on his old team. This goes without saying, although what he wants to make is a historical hero film, a historical biopic, or the concept of the Great Wall. It is not known what new story will be derived, but such a large investment scale and Hollywood superstar joining this level of actor positioning all show Qin Wei and Hu Fei's attempt to "rush out of Asia and go to the world".

It's normal and it's not normal.

It's normal because the success of "The Matrix" has brought stimulation to the Chinese film industry. The first-line big directors will make some stressful and slightly impulsive reactions and longings after being stimulated. It is really normal. Zhou Baoshan will want to earn US dollars, and Qin Wei will of course also want to earn US dollars. 's box office. After all, even in this time and space, Hollywood's status in the world's movies is no worse than the time and space that Li Qian once passed through, and its attraction to outstanding filmmakers and actors from all over the world is not weak at all.

It's abnormal because... In Li Qian's opinion, Qin Wei has not even done a good job of making a good movie with a purely commercial orientation aside from fame, gimmicks and publicity, and even how to make money from domestic fans happy. I’ve earned it quickly, but I haven’t done it yet. Now I’m so impatient to make money from American audiences. It’s really too impatient.

But this is the matter of Hu Fei and Qin Wei. No matter how unwilling Li Qian is to watch Chinese filmmakers do such a moth to the fire, he has no ability or even a position to dissuade them.

What's more, he and Qin Wei are known to be inseparable from each other, and in the past half a year, Hu Fei's small gestures in the audience have also made Li Qian very unhappy. Once again tending to freeze.

It's just that such a thought-provoking movie and such a high-standard configuration will indeed form a strong attraction to the vast majority of actors in China. Coupled with Hu Fei's unremitting efforts in the past six months, in the end, something happened to Minghu Culture.

Qi Jie came over to chat and talked about some gossip about "The Great Wall" the day after, Zou Wenhuai ran over, looking furious, and told Li Qian that Liu Yan had officially stated that he would not renew the contract.

This is really a reasonable and unexpected change.

Liu Yan is the first wave of TV stars won by Minghu Culture. Over the years, from the little swallow in the "Princess Princess" trilogy to "Deep Love and Rain", in the past five years, Minghu has Culture has created five TV dramas for her, and basically at least one of them is a hit every year, of course she has benefited a lot. Now on the small screen of domestic TV series, she is definitely one of the most popular stars.

In the past two years, she has formed a certain degree of tacit understanding with the company, that is, she takes on a big drama from the company every year to make a name for herself, and then runs out to pick up other dramas at other times, making a lot of money.

That's fine.

No matter how powerful Minghu Culture is, it is impossible to spread its product line too wide, and it is even more impossible to smash the four to six TV series produced every year to one person. Therefore, like Liu Yan, it is a good way to rely on the company's drama to continue to be popular, and then run out to pick up other dramas to make money.

When she was filming "Princess Pearl", she was still a college student, and Minghu Culture wanted to film and support her. Of course, she was very willing to sign the brokerage contract. Later, she became popular and asked to revise the contract. Minghu Culture was also very To save face, everyone signed a new contract. In the contract, the various treatments given to her have been greatly improved, and the company's draw ratio has also been greatly reduced, giving her a big name Basically all the treatment a star should have.

But the second contract was only signed for four years. Since the spring of this year, it is said that the brokerage department has been contacting the other party to try to renew the contract, but it has not been able to secure a new contract. Anyway, the attitude of the other side is that Talking slowly, we are not in a hurry, and we have to set all kinds of conditions high, far exceeding the bottom line that Minghu Culture can bear.

With such delays, the renewal of the contract has never been completed. Zou Wenhuai has always been very annoyed, and said this matter twice during the meeting, but Liu Yan has always used her busyness as an excuse and refused to come to the company. Even if Zou Wenhuai was annoyed, it was impossible to chase her home.

So, seeing that the contract in the spring of next year is about to expire, Liu Yan finally has a showdown.

Her assistant ran over to see Zou Wenhuai and said: She can't get the chance to make a movie here. Now even Zhao Qing has got the heroine of "Shaolin Temple". She is still arranged by the company to make various TV series. She is a little tired. So I want to jump out and do it myself. But even if she goes out, she will still regard Minghu Culture as her old club, and she will never forget the kindness she has given to Lord Qian over the years, so on and so forth.

Regardless of whether it is a job-hopping or the so-called no longer contract renewal, this is the first artist to leave Minghu Culture in the eight years since the establishment of Li Qian Studio, the predecessor of Minghu Culture in 1996!

And he is a student who has never been a penniless student of Minghu Culture, and has been praised as a big star from red to purple!

Zou Wenhuai was very angry.

It is of course his dereliction of duty as the artist director that his artists can't control it and want to change jobs.

But Li Qian thought about it and asked her, "She doesn't renew her contract. Did she say where to go?"

Zou Wenhuai said: "Where else can she go? Nine times out of ten, she wants to set up her own studio and go to Huafei Film and Television. It is said that the price is that she will get the heroine of "The Great Wall" that Qin Wei is preparing. !"

Li Qian said "um", did not speak, and slowly smothered the matter in his heart.

This is really... too simple, isn't it?

Qin Wei didn't even understand the domestic commercial film market, so he wanted to go to the world in a hurry. So far, Liu Yan has only received one film that was not very good at the box office, and he has not proven his ability on the big screen at all. Are you going to be the heroine of a super production with a production budget of up to 100 million US dollars, that is, 200 million Chinese yuan?

Do you really think movies are that fun?

Do you really think the US box office is so good?

Is this more than simple?

Simply pure!

Seeing that Li Qian didn't speak, Zou Wenhuai was still talking, "Hu Fei and Zong Chengze have gone too far recently. If only Liu Yan was alone, I don't think so, we don't lack her. Huadan actress, Yiyi is also up now, and her ratings and appeal are not worse than hers. I will give her another good movie in the future. In three or five years, we will still dominate the small screen in China, but the problem is, I am afraid that Liu Yan is just the beginning. !"

Li Qian smiled and asked, "Then what do you think should be done?"

Zou Wenhuai was silent for a moment, and said, "You can't block it, but it's not impossible to teach them a lesson. Even if you kill chickens to warn monkeys, you must take some action!"

Li Qian thought for a while, and after a while, he suddenly picked up the phone and dialed a number. After a long time, the connection was finally made, and he asked directly, "The hero and heroine of "Autumn Fairy Tale" have already decided on Qin Jingjing and me. You haven't said it yet, have you?"

He didn't seem to come back to his senses yet, and his voice was a little dry and hoarse, "No? What's wrong? I came to the United States after meeting you. It's not that you don't know."

"That's fine." Li Qian said.

He wanted to hang up the phone, but the deer said, "You woke me up in the middle of the night, just to ask this? Do you know that I am in the United States, or that I just recently reversed the jet lag!"

Li Qian held the microphone away from his ear, and after he finished venting, he said, "Go back to sleep, while you're still sleepy! I'm hanging up! I'll go back to the United States to invite you to dinner and apologize to you. "

The other end of the phone snorted twice, and then said, "Ask Jingjing or Xiaomin, I'm not sure if they talked about it." Then he asked, "What happened? You want to ask this all of a sudden? Say it in advance. Is there anything wrong?"

Li Qian said: "Don't ask, I will meet you and tell you now, if you ask now, you will definitely be sleepy. Go to sleep!"

After a moment's pause, it said "Okay" and hung up.

Li Qian directly dialed the second number and asked directly, "Have you told anyone that "Fairy Tale of Autumn" chose you as the heroine?"

"Uh... Maybe only Xiaomin knows?"

"Didn't you tell other friends?"

"I...I've been shutting myself up at home lately, thinking about the script. And...and I don't have any friends."

"..."

Hang up, the third call goes out.

Zou Wenhuai was sitting on the sofa, watching him keep making calls like this, he was a little stunned, not sure what he was going to do.

The third call was connected, and Li Qian asked: "Jingjing has been appointed as the heroine of "Autumn Fairy Tale", have you told me about it?"

"No! I'm trying to figure out a way to go around the corner and encourage a few young ladies here to knock on your door! Everyone knows that you like to hold your own women very much, so help them cheer up! I've already put you I told them some of the top-secret information that you have, I said that you like to be passive, let them be subtle, take the initiative to make an appointment for dinner, take the initiative to ask how to act, and find any excuses..."

"..."

Li Qian was speechless, what kind of sister-in-law is this!

There was still Barabara talking, and Li Qian finally couldn't listen anymore, "Stop! You're funny! Are you busy? Why are you making fun of people!"

"I'm just idle! They want to be in the position one by one, so I'll help out!"

"..."

"Especially your little niece who is like a goblin. Recently, her assistant is always asking Jingjing's assistant. Hmph, this girl doesn't know her yet! My sister is not at home, so of course I have to give them some medicine!"

"..."

"But brother-in-law, I'm actually creating opportunities for you! Isn't it? That little girl is really beautiful! Maybe I'll match you up like this, and it will really work? You don't have to tell my sister at that time. what!"

…………

Finally hung up the phone, and when he accidentally looked up, Li Qian caught a glimpse of Zou Wenhuai's mouth twitching.

He guessed that the dead fat man must have heard something.

But he didn't have the time to pay attention to him, adjusted his mood, and picked up the phone and dialed the number for the fourth time.

The phone rang for more than 20 seconds before the phone finally picked up.

"Hey, Brother Qian."

"Are you leaving? Not renewing the contract?" The voice was very gentle, a little low, it was the voice of an indescribable man with magnetic magic.

"Well, mostly I think, I think..."

"It's alright. I just think that if we get to know each other once, it can be regarded as mutual achievement. You are leaving, I have to call you, and Quan should give you a ride."

There was a moment of silence over there~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Suddenly there was a cry, "Brother Qian...Thank you."

"Well." Li Qian said, "It's just a pity. I thought I would be able to work with you next, but I haven't acted for a long time, but now it seems that I have no chance."

"Uh... Brother Qian, what do you... mean?"

"It's nothing. Well... that's it! Next, hold your plate, play steadily, don't be rash, don't be rash. It's not easy for you to get to this day step by step."

"Uh... Brother Qian, you just said..."

"Hey, it's all over, let's look for opportunities in the future! There are still opportunities in the future, right?"

"Uh... um, yes."

"Work hard, come on!"

"Thank you, Brother Qian." nt
