Chapter 62 August’s Gossip
Lu Zheng hung up the phone and shook his head at Jingtian.
"Tiantian, that character already has an owner."
Lu Zheng didn't expect that Lin Nan would really have the right to cast the role, but unfortunately it seemed that it had already been decided.
Jing Tian was a little disappointed, but quickly adjusted his attitude.
"Uncle Lu, it's okay. What's the big deal? Will we find another chance in the future?"
"Well, that makes sense. At worst, we can find someone to make the movie ourselves."
Lu Zheng comforted.
After Lin Nan sent Wanda's people away, he leaned comfortably on the sofa. The matter was settled, and he made a net profit of 2.4 million US dollars.
…
"I had planned to follow Sister Hua, but Mr. Wang kept talking to me again and again, which made me really embarrassed."
"I'm afraid this movie will suffer a huge loss, it's 140 million." Lin Nan muttered.
The image of a weak and helpless person who was persecuted, threatened, and exploited suddenly became clear.
She took the initiative to contact the media and unilaterally announced the termination of her eight-year agency contract with Xinghui, and expressed her willingness to do whatever it takes, not just to lose money to "redeemed" her life, but even to quit the industry.
Zhu Yawen had something to say first.
Regarding the reason why Wang Jinghua and Hua Yi parted ways, there were various opinions on the Internet for a while.
"Master!"
…
There are all kinds of news in the entertainment industry recently, and every day is different. There are all kinds of gossip here, and the national star-making program "Super Girl" is also in the finals over there. When Lin Nan stays in the company, she often hears them sending text messages to support so-and-so.
"Mr. Xiao Wang talked to me again. This time he actually said that when the company goes public, artists can hold shares."
Huayi is still Huayi, and they also have a large number of film and TV series teams such as Feng Xiaogang.
Zhu Yawen frowned and said to Lin Nan.
Lin Nan joked.
"It's the third day, on the 29th."
"Are you still doing ideological work for everyone?"
"Come on, let's go for a walk. Xu Ke's "Seven Swords" is on."
Wang Jinghua was silent for a while, then suddenly announced directly to the media that her contract with Huayi had expired and would not be renewed, and she would leave Huayi Economic Company.
Zhu Yawen asked uncertainly.
When Lin Nan and Zhu Yawen entered the theater, they discovered that the attendance rate was not too high. This was still during the summer vacation, and only less than one-third of the cinema hall was occupied.
"Seven Swords" invested 140 million. During the promotion, it was said that both the script and the costume props were perfect, and it was said to be the work of Xu Ke's painstaking efforts.
"Zhou Xingchi's company now lets actresses film such things?"
"Forget it, they are easy to recognize when they go out on the street. There are probably not many women in the cinema, and there are more men watching martial arts."
"I don't seem to understand."
"Sister Hua is very generous. She will stay or leave based on her own will. She will not force anyone, nor will it affect the friendship between everyone."
Lin Nan admired Huang Shengyi's actions. Now the media and netizens in the mainland are almost all on the woman's side. Xinghui's public relations is really bad.
There are not many famous actresses in the recent film academy. Liu Yifei is naturally beautiful and has accumulated huge popularity through several popular TV series.
An email from Lionsgate has been sent. The North American box office was finally set at 89 million US dollars. Including other regions, the box office still failed to break 100 million US dollars. Unfortunately, it stopped at 98 million US dollars.
The contrast between innocence and sex appeal makes men's wear consumers extremely comfortable.
It is said that the king always smashed a lot of things in the office.
Zhu Yawen came to Lin Nan early in the morning with her men's clothes in hand, not knowing what the impact would be.
Huayi's status in the film and television industry is second only to several national-prefixed companies, and it firmly holds the top spot in the private sector.
Hua Yi is sure to have a headache. In order to recruit Wang Jinghua and her group of actors, the shares of the brokerage company that were opened were split 50-50, with Wang Jinghua half and the Wang brothers half.
The news of the princess's marriage was only a small ripple, attracting a little attention.
When walking out of the theater, Zhu Yawen said something.
After separating from Zhu Yawen, Lin Nan returned to the company.
Huang Shengyi's image of a mute girl in "Kung Fu" is still lingering in the minds of many viewers. She is pure, clean, and charming. Xinghui also packages her in this way...
Cheng Tian, ​​who had been passed on before, was mentioned as a matter of course, but this time there was no sound at all.
Cheng Tian was once again brought up to make a case, because Wang Jinghua and dozens of mature artists are a big piece of fat, and everyone is guessing who will swallow this piece of meat.
Wang Jinghua spoke directly, so it must be true. A large number of media reporters swarmed in and surrounded Huayi Film and Television Company. There were even more people squatting at the economic company.
This time, the person concerned came forward to explain directly. It is impossible for the Wang brothers to say that the truth is false.
"This is the latest issue of men's clothing, tsk tsk, it's really eye-opening."
Hollywood News has already reported the results of "Dead Silence". Lionsgate once again reaped huge box office with a low-cost horror film, and Lin Nan's name has been mentioned again and again.
That is to say, this industry in the entertainment industry can achieve this: one moment you are an innocent senior in school, and the next moment your juniors are admiring your sexy photos.
It seems that the fun has just begun. Before Xinghui's side can take action, Huang Shengyi seems to have been instructed by someone and appears in the news media as the weak side and the victim of persecution.
The media cannot miss any breaking point. When Xinghui saw this issue of the magazine, he was very angry.
Lin Nan asked Zhu Yawen to go watch a movie together. Xu Ke's martial arts was quite good.
In this case, the box office may not be optimistic.
Huayi, which was originally undervalued, made a strong announcement, and Wanda Cinemas also quickly announced that it would participate in "Journey to the Center of the Earth".
Lin Nan admired the magazine photos with a critical eye.
"Is this only the third day of release?"
"Don't let reporters hear these words, or something will happen." Zhu Yawen joked.
The huge poster of "Seven Swords" is still hanging on the theater's promotional wall. Zhang Jingchu's wild style is also on it. Donnie Yen and Li Ming are in the most conspicuous positions, but I'm afraid it can't save the box office.
Immediately afterwards, artists such as Chen Daoming, Hu Jun, Liu Jialing, Xia Yu, Yang Ziqiong and other artists stated that they would not renew their contracts with Huayi.
Some media bluntly stated that Huayi would be unable to move forward after losing Wang Jinghua. Mr. Wang’s reply was very concise. If Huayi cannot move forward, it could only be when he leaves.
A large number of movies and TV dramas do not use their own people, unfair division of interests, being squeezed into wearing small shoes, etc. There are claims.
"Why do you say that? It's possible that this star girl made her own decision."
"You are just a contracted artist. Why do you want to do so much? If I want to win you over, I will give you a ready-made one. There is no point in trying to make a big pie."
"This is true. Director Lin has signed a contract with Mr. Wang. Huayi will invest US$3 million to participate in this film."
Zhu Yawen thought for a while.
"Into the Dust" did not have a large box office, but the division of accounts with theaters cannot be careless; on the other hand, after a month of release, "Dead Silence" ended perfectly.
Lin Nan flipped through the magazine, "It's quite sudden, a bit self-destructive."
At most, it will make people complain about the man's charm and how he can move between several female stars with ease.
Before the opera ends here, a new stage starts over there.
How many companies in the industry are waiting to see the joke? Huayi has soared into the sky and developed rapidly in the past few years, it was during the years when Wang Jinghua joined.
The sexy photos of the star girls made the August 1st issue surprisingly good in sales.
But in terms of celebrity status, he is not as good as Huang Shengyi who made his debut in Star Girl. That is "Kung Fu". Now it's better. The latter is committing suicide.
Lin Nan and Zhu Yawen gritted their teeth and finished watching the two-hour movie.
Huayi's participation in Hollywood movies is a shot in the arm for the company after Wang Jinghua left, and it also shows its fist to the industry.
"Don't you call those two?"
"That's not entirely true. Those old people who came here with Sister Hua didn't talk much, so they probably know their attitude."
Zhu Yawen couldn't believe that he saw this when a few newcomers in the company with whom they usually chatted were browsing.
News that New Line and Lin Nan are collaborating on a new film are still hot, and the success of "Dead Silence" has spread to China, and Hua Yi's gossip has a tendency to be suppressed.
What shocked the industry was that Fan Bingbing, Li Bingbing, Ren Quan, etc. who were trained by Wang Jinghua did not follow her, but chose to stay at Huayi.
The reporters couldn't get accurate information from the person involved and actually started to block the artist, which annoyed him several times.
The story structure is very loose and the characters are weak. After watching the two-hour movie, Lin Nan couldn't think of any impressive plots or characters. No, there was also Sun Honglei.
No matter how good the costume props and location are, the plot will be bad.
Zhu Yawen responded, "Then she would have to offend the company to death."
Watching him build a tall building, watching his building collapse.
But Wang Jinghua is doing the day-to-day management. Now that the family is splitting up, the advantage is not on the side of the two brothers at all.
A large number of reporters came to Lin Nan's company to inquire, but the latter did not show up. An employee came forward to confirm the matter.
A group of large-scale photos appeared openly in men's magazines, half-covered, wet, sexy, seductive, and with clear curves.
Lin Nan replied.
From the beginning of the millennium to now, Huayi has made great strides to become the leading private film company, with a large number of big names under it, making everyone envious.
He also regretted calling Zhu Yawen over to watch the movie. He was simply deceived by Mr. Xu's name.
Lin Nan said angrily that if these words spread from his mouth to reporters, it would be an accident.
On the first day of August, there will be benefits.
Hua Yi's gossip still dominates the entertainment headlines, and Wang Jinghua's ambiguous reply obviously made the media sense something else.
"Let's go quickly." Lin Nan urged.
Lin Nan replied.
"Why do you care so much? Maybe someone else has already figured out the future."
"Am I that stupid?"
"Okay, if you get criticized then, it has nothing to do with me."
"The costumes, scenes, and props are all exquisite, but nothing else."
The departure of top managers and dozens of well-known artists is already a definite fact.
"Oh, stocks. The plans of the two CEOs are quite far ahead."
The next day, Huayi Film and Television announced that the company had received a US$3 million investment in the Hollywood science fiction blockbuster "Journey to the Center of the Earth."
They came with Wang Jinghua at first, but now it seems they are leaving together.
Compared with other news, this is the biggest focus during this period.
This is the news disclosed to the media by relevant personnel.
It's really going to be on the shelves soon, I'm always waiting for it!
The time has been set. The editor informed me at 6 o'clock this morning that it will be on the shelves tomorrow. I am nervous and excited. Fortunately, I have some stock so I won't be caught off guard.
