Chapter 738

This report from the Beijing Times was reprinted by major media in a very short time. The reporters began to contact Huayi crazily, contact the Wang brothers, and ask if Feng Xiaogang's job-hopping was true.

After receiving the news, Wang Zhonglei was a little confused and denied it flatly: "This is a rumor. Xiaogang will not leave Huayi. Don't listen to the wind and rain!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Zhonglei immediately dialed Feng Xiaogang's number. Huayi is now in a critical period of listing. The impact of this rumor is very bad. He hopes that Feng Xiaogang can stand up immediately and clarify.

However, after dialing Feng Xiaogang's phone number, the answer he got was that the other party had turned off. Wang Zhonglei suddenly felt something was wrong, so he quickly dialed Xu Fan's phone number, and the answer he got was that the other party had turned off.

Wang Zhonglei felt a chill that rushed straight up to his head along his spine. His hand shook and his phone landed on the ground.

The contract between Huayi and Feng Xiaogang is indeed due to expire at the end of this year. Under normal circumstances, it should have been a long time since the renewal of the contract with Feng Xiaogang, but in recent months, the Wang brothers have been busy with Huayi's listing, and Feng Xiaogang is busy with "If You Are the One 2", so the renewal of the contract has been temporarily put on hold.

In the eyes of the Wang brothers, Feng Xiaogang has 6.88 million shares of Huayi, with a shareholding ratio of 6%. As long as Huayi is successfully listed, it will become several hundred million. Now that the company is about to go public, Feng Xiaogang will definitely not have any other thoughts at this time.

They never dreamed that an accident happened!

That afternoon, Feng Xiaogang told the media through his assistant: "Director Feng has been in Huayi for ten years. It has been too long and now he lacks passion. He wants to change to a new environment. Director Feng has indeed signed a contract with Century Peak, but the specific content is not convenient to disclose now."

As soon as this news came out, countless people on the Internet exclaimed, Huayi is over, this time it is over!

There is a joke in the circle that Feng Xiaogang can shake Huayi even if he sneezes. This sentence is enough to prove the importance of Feng Xiaogang. In recent years, Huayi has been greatly suppressed by the peak of the century, with serious artist loss and a significant decline in performance. If Feng Xiaogang had not supported him, Huayi would have collapsed long ago.

Now that Feng Xiaogang left, Huayi's sky collapsed!

In Huayi's office, Wang Zhonglei's eyes were black, his hands were trembling slightly, and his empty eyes were exhausted. He curled up on the sofa, and he seemed to have been several years old. Wang Zhongjun also had a pale face and looked very depressed, and he couldn't help but sigh.

After Zhang Ran made a storm-like blow to Huayi in 2006, he stopped. Outsiders thought that his relationship with Huayi had been alleviated, but the Wang brothers knew that it was an endless hatred and could not be alleviated. They believed that Zhang Ran was busy with the Olympics and could not make any moves for the time being. Zhang Ran would definitely take action again after the Olympics. Huayi's only chance was to go public. As long as Huayi successfully went public, even if he couldn't beat Zhang Ran, they would sell a part of their stocks abroad and spend the rest of their lives freely.

The performance of film and television companies to go public is very important, but Huayi's performance is difficult to satisfy. The net profit in 2007 was 15.84 million yuan; in 2008, the net profit was 41.06 million yuan due to the box office of "If You Are the One". However, Huayi's net profit in the first half of this year was only 8.63 million yuan, less than half of that in 2008. More importantly, since 2007, Feng Xiaogang's works have contributed more than 50% of the total revenue that year.

Huayi originally had a single business and weak revenue capacity. Now, as soon as Feng Xiaogang left, the company's pillars collapsed, and the listing naturally became a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water.

The Wang brothers have been working hard for nearly three years to go public. In these three years, they can be said to have tried their best and racked their brains, but just one step away from success, they were suddenly knocked into the abyss. This blow to the Wang brothers' confidence can be said to be devastating, and it almost defeated them all!

At this moment, Wang Zhongjun's cell phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Yang Sucheng called. A ray of light lit up in the endless darkness. Wang Zhongjun quickly answered the phone: "Hello, Mr. Yang, I am Wang Zhongjun!"

"Central Army, I know about Feng Xiaogang's escape! Don't worry too much!" Yang Sucheng comforted and said, "We are friends, and I will definitely help my friends in trouble. What's more, the peak of the past two centuries has been constantly targeting us, the King of Kings, and I can't lose you, an ally!"

After hearing Yang Sucheng say this, Wang Zhongjun sighed slightly relieved. Huayi had a bet agreement with Emperor Ying. If Huayi cannot go public before the end of this year, Emperor Ying could ask Huayi to buy back shares at a high price according to the bet agreement. At that time, Huayi could not afford to pay, and he would be forced to sell the shares and the entire company might fall into the hands of others.

Now that Yang Sucheng expressed his unwillingness to lose his ally, he should not ask Huayi to repurchase it in a short period of time. As long as he does not ask Huayi to repurchase shares, Huayi still has a chance to strive for another listing.

Wang Zhongjun exhaled and said, "Mr. Yang, it is really a blessing to have you as a friend!"

Yang Sucheng smiled and said, "This is serious. As long as our Beijing-Hong Kong circles work together, there is no reason not to be able to fight Zhang Ran. A few days ago, because of Stephen Chow's affairs, Zhang Ran offended many people in the Hong Kong circle, and there are more people who deal with him. Feng Xiaogang is gone, and you Huayi has no director who can hold the box office. We should strengthen cooperation. In this way, Huayi, our Emperor project, can invest in shares. In addition, I will look for Lin Jianyue, Xiang Huaqiang and others to see if everyone can join forces and do the project together!"

Hearing this, Wang Zhongjun was so moved that tears almost fell: "Mr. Yang, as long as we Huayi is not collapsed, as long as you say something, I, Wang Zhongjun, will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

Yang Sucheng said in a reproachful tone: "You are just a pity. We are friends! Besides, I am also a shareholder of Huayi. As long as Huayi can go public, I can make a lot of money. I definitely hope Huayi will go public. Come to Xiangjiang as soon as possible, and let's talk about cooperation!"

Wang Zhongjun said, "I will come to Xiangjiang tomorrow!"

Wang Zhonglei kept listening to each other. After Wang Zhongjun hung up the phone, he immediately asked, "Brother, is Yang Sucheng willing to help us?"

Wang Zhongjun nodded slightly: "Not only are you willing to help us, but you also plan to contact Lin Jianyue, Xiang Huaqiang and other bigwigs in Xiangjiang to cooperate with us and strive to make Huayi go public. I will ask you to go to Xiangjiang tomorrow. You will talk to Zhang Jizhong and his TV series business departments. Their contract expires next year. We must renew the contract with them as soon as possible and we cannot leave anymore!"

Wang Zhonglei immediately said, "Don't worry, I will do it!"

At twelve o'clock in the evening, Zhang Ran came out of the bathroom and was about to go to bed when he suddenly received a text message, with only one sentence in it, "The last step has begun."

It is already July now, and in more than four months, this grudge will be completely concluded!

Then I will smile and watch you cry!

Zhang Ran looked at the text message, smiled coldly, and then pressed to delete.

In the eyes of many people, Huayi and Feng Xiaogang are one. Feng Xiaogang is from the Beijing circle and promoted by Wang Shuo. It is possible for other directors to change jobs to the peak of the century, but Feng Xiaogang is absolutely impossible. But now Feng Xiaogang is now joining the peak of the century. Therefore, netizens are very surprised that the entire network is discussing this matter.

Soon a person who claimed to be an insider broke the news online that Century Peak was able to sign Feng Xiaogang, and three of them played a key role in it, Zhang Heping, Han Shanping and Gao Jun.

According to the whistleblower, Feng Xiaogang has been in trouble since 1994. First, the film "I Am Your Dad" starring him was banned; then, "Living a Miserable Life" directed by him was shut down ten days after the filming was launched. Later, the two long TV series "Love Sorrow" and "Back to the Moon" directed by him were not allowed to be broadcast in Peking.

Under such extremely difficult circumstances, Zhang Heping, the boss of the Forbidden City Film Company, and Han Shanping, the director of Beijing Film Studio, found Feng Xiaogang and asked him to direct a New Year comedy film, which was "Party A and Party B". After the movie was released, the box office was booming, achieving a record of 36 million. From then on, the three-in-one New Year film creation method of "Feng Xiaogang + Ge You + Comedy" began to be officially confirmed.

After the success of "Party A and Party B", Forbidden City Pictures successively invested in "See You" and "Endless", and Feng Xiaogang became famous and became the king of the New Year's Eve. At this time, Huayi Wang Zhongjun found Feng Xiaogang and said that he was willing to pay 4 million yuan a year to sign a contract with Feng Xiaogang. This price was very attractive at the time, but Feng Xiaogang still found Zhang Heping and said that he had a deep relationship with the Forbidden City. Huayi paid 4 million yuan here, and I would not leave as long as the Forbidden City was given 2 million yuan. But Forbidden City is a state-owned enterprise, and it was impossible to give Feng Xiaogang such a large sum of money, so Feng Xiaogang switched to Huayi.

Feng Xiaogang was able to become the king of the New Year holiday, and another person had a great role, which was Gao Jun, the boss of the New Film Union at that time. When "Party A and Party B" was released, it was not without opponents, but on the contrary, it was Chen Peisi's "Three and Half-Hao" by Chen Peisi. According to Chen Peisi's later recollection, "Three and Half-Hao" was very good at the box office, and Peking City was about 200,000 yuan a day, but five days later the film was withdrawn and only arranged to suburban theaters. The movie ended in a crushing defeat. Chen Peisi was disheartened and focused on dramas. "Party A and Party B" had a big box office hit. In addition to the high quality of the movie itself, theaters led by Gao Jun are extremely important.

Feng Xiaogang has always regarded Zhang Heping, Han Shanping as his benefactor, and has a good relationship with Gao Jun. Now Gao Jun is in charge of distribution and theaters at the peak of the century. Zhang Heping and Zhang Ran have a very good relationship with Zhang Ran, and Han Shanping is Zhang Ran's ally. When Gao Jun personally invited Feng Xiaogang to join, Zhang Heping and Han Shanping persuaded each other, it was really hard for Feng Xiaogang to refuse.

In addition, Century Peak issued a five-year signing fee of 500 million yuan to Feng Xiaogang, and promised Feng Xiaogang that as long as Feng Xiaogang joins, the company will do its best to promote Feng Xiaogang's works to the whole world, making Feng Xiaogang an international director like Zhang Yimou. With so many generous conditions combined, it is difficult for any director in China to refuse, and Feng Xiaogang is naturally no exception.

Netizens were shocked when they heard Feng Xiaogang joining Century Peak with a signing fee of 500 million yuan.

Five-year signing fee of 500 million yuan is too exaggerated?

Although the five-million signing fee in five years sounds unreliable, the next morning, the headlines of the entertainment version of major domestic media were almost all "Feng Xiaogang joins the new owner and collects 500 million yuan, and his sky-high price shocked netizens."

Of course, the truth of the matter still needs to be asked about the person involved. Now Feng Xiaogang is missing and cannot find anyone, so Zhang Ran has once again become the target of the reporters' pursuit.

The entrance of the hotel where the crew of "One Man Decorates the Light" was filled with people early in the morning. When Zhang Ran got out of the box, he asked Feng Xiaogang what was going on with the Peak of the Century.

Zhang Ran spread his hands innocently: "I don't know very well about the specific situation of this matter. It was discussed by Mr. Gao. You should go to find him. Why do you come to me? I have been filming in the mountain city recently!" As he said that, Zhang Ran suddenly pointed and shouted: "Oh, that's not Feng Xiaogang!"

The reporters all turned around and saw a man who looked vulgar and looked quite like Huang Bo. When they turned around and wanted to ask Zhang Ran again, they found that he had disappeared.

The reporters looked at each other, Damn, this is OK?
