Zhang Hehuan reminded him: "A movie we are filming recently, "The Phone" was sent by your company to a lawyer's letter."

Wang Zhonglei did not know about this and said in surprise: "Is this happening?" He turned to the assistant beside him, who attached himself to his ear and whispered to the story of this matter briefly.

After hearing this, Wang Zhonglei couldn't help laughing: "This is what I don't know. I guess it's the legal department that does it. This is their responsibility. I send at least dozens of such lawyer letters every year."

Qiao Shengtian said: "In this way, it really flooded the Dragon King Temple. The whole family doesn't know the family anymore. Zhonglei, I am also a shareholder of Xinxing Domain. Are you planning to sue me together?"

Wang Zhonglei's smile remained unchanged: "Mr. Qiao, don't let me down. We are friends, and I can't sue you." He listened to the voice and knew that Qiao Shengtian was going to stand out for the new star field, so he had to give this face.

Qiao Shengtian deliberately said to Zhang Hehuan: "You hear it clearly. This matter has nothing to do with me. Mr. Wang wants to sue you."

Wang Zhonglei was amused and laughed: "Is it as to exaggerate the trivial matter?" He said to his assistant: "Tell me and withdraw the lawyer's letter."

Zhang Hehuan laughed and said, "Don't withdraw, don't withdraw, I'm not to hide it. I'm going to take advantage of this lawsuit to gain some popularity."

Wang Zhongleixin said that you are telling the truth. "Mobile Mobile" has a more popular IP, and Huayi is about to shoot "Mobile Mobile 2". If you really sue you, it will be a free publicity for you. This legal department is really, can you do such a stupid thing?

Wang Zhonglei said: "Since you meet me, let's have a meal together. I have wanted to know Brother Zhang for a long time."

Qiao Shengtian said: "There is a thank-you banquet from the victim at noon."

Wang Zhonglei said: "Don't cause trouble for others, I'll make arrangements."

Qiao Shengtian said to Zhang Hehuan: "Huanzi, give me some face."

Zhang Hehuan said: "It is better to obey orders than respect."

At noon, Wang Zhonglei took them to a villa, which was built by his elder brother. There were many antique collections in the villa. When he arrived at the villa, the staff had already prepared the food.

Wang Zhonglei invited them to have a meal first. The naming dispute about the "Phone" has been clarified. Wang Zhonglei asked the legal department to withdraw the lawyer's letter, and he also figured out the reason behind it. It turns out that someone inside the company was unhappy about Zhang Hehuan.

In fact, even if this kind of lawsuit goes to court, it doesn’t make much sense. At worst, it’s just to lose money and apologize. On the surface, they won, but in fact they were saved by Xinxingyuan and helped others promote it.

Of course, Wang Zhonglei won’t do such a thankless thing. As the CEO of Huayi, his situation is not so small.

In the past world, when Zhang Hehuan was in glory, Huayi had declined, and he and the Wang Zhonglei brothers did not have much interaction. Since they took the initiative to give in, there was no need for Zhang Hehuan to continue writing in the lawyer's letter. This time, due to this dispute, he also gained a lot of attention for "The Phone".

The hottest topic in the circle in recent days is Li Ming's sudden death. Wang Zhonglei sighed: "You still can't force yourself too much in the future. You must have fun in your life in time."

Qiao Shengtian smiled and said, "Hasn't Mr. Wang always been very chic?"

Wang Zhonglei said: "You mean that I am not strong in career."

Qiao Shengtian smiled and said, "What is a master? This is a master who plays and makes money at the same time."

Wang Zhonglei said: "If you want to talk about experts, we are not as good as Mr. Zhang. The total investment of "My Savage Girlfriend" is only more than 30 million yuan, and it has earned 1.3 billion yuan in box office in China. The TV series starring him is popular in Asia again. The key is that you are still so young, which is really admirable."

Zhang Hehuan said: "I happened to it."

Wang Zhonglei said: "I heard you took over the "Taiping Wheel" project?"

Zhang Hehuan nodded.

Wang Zhonglei told Qiao Shengtian: "I have courage. No one in this project circle dares to touch it."

Qiao Shengtian said: "Huanzi's loyalty is mainly due to the friendship with Li Ming. People leave and tea are cold. There are not many people in this circle who value friendship as much as Huanzi." In fact, he also knew that Zhang Hehuan and Li Ming had no friendship, but things have become a fact, so he had to help Zhang Hehuan say a few good words.

Wang Zhonglei said: "I heard that I have received 400 million yuan after filming "Taiping Wheel"?"

Zhang Hehuan said: "It's not enough to use so much. Xiaoma Pictures transferred the investment share to me at 20% off. I currently invest 120 million yuan. Qiyi Video is responsible for another 110 million yuan investment, which means that our current cost is 230 million yuan. I have estimated that the subsequent funding gap for this movie is about 80 million yuan. If the operation is correct, I personally invest 200 million yuan to complete the movie."

Wang Zhonglei sighed: "It's amazing, it's equivalent to compressing 100 million yuan than the original plan."

Zhang Hehuan said deliberately: "Are Mr. Wang interested in investing? I still have a funding gap of 80 million now."

Wang Zhonglei shook his head and said, "We have been very full of plans for the past two years. Most of them are produced by ourselves. There is no foreign investment plan for the time being." It's not that there is no plan, but that we don't want to invest. The reputation of the project "Taiping Wheel" has been broken in the circle, the budget has been severely overspent, Xiaoma Pictures has been blocked from its listing, and the film was halfway through, and the producer died suddenly. People in the entertainment industry are very superstitious. Thinking of the word "Taiping Wheel", it feels like the movie has been cursed in some mysterious way.

Qiao Shengtian also had this concern. If Zhang Hehuan discussed this matter with him in advance, he would definitely persuade him to give up the idea of ​​accepting this project.

Zhang Hehuan said: "Does Brother Tian plan to vote?"

Qiao Shengtian said: "I am a shareholder of the company, and I already have one in the investment."

Zhang Hehuan laughed and said, "You are only 5%. I will give you a chance to earn more."

In front of Wang Zhonglei, Qiao Shengtian was embarrassed to say that he would not invest. If he did not invest, wouldn’t it prove that even the shareholders of him, the company, were not optimistic about the restart of this project?

Qiao Shengtian said: "I'll invest ten million."

Zhang Hehuan said: "It's too little, I don't want to invest less than 30 million."

Qiao Shengtian widened his eyes and said to Wang Zhonglei: "Have you ever met such a person? Be picky and choose."

Wang Zhonglei said: "He is using the method of provoking you."

Qiao Shengtian said: "Don't irritate me, I'll make up for the gap of 80 million. Just go and make this movie."

Xu Ke received a call from Wu Yushen. Before answering, he was hesitant. Wu Yushen must have complained. He shouldn't have followed Zhang Hehuan that day. Wu Yushen really regarded him as a member of the leadership of the New Star Domain. Xu Ke sighed secretly. When he went to New Art City, he had an unhappy relationship with Wu Yushen. After more than 20 years, would he be unhappy because of New Star Domain?

After hesitation, he answered the phone: "John!"

Wu Yushen's tone didn't seem to be angry: "Old monster, is he also written the book of "A Chinese Ghost Story"?"

"yes!"

"No wonder, this Hehuanzi is very good at it."

Xu Ke then felt relieved: "Don't underestimate him. Hehuanzai's creative ability is worthy of the younger generation, and all the novels he wrote are bestsellers."

Wu Yushen said: "I have finished reading the script. After he revised it, it is indeed several ranks higher than the original script, which weakens the love between children, cuts off unnecessary storylines, highlights the great era and disasters. It is simply...it is simply a brand new script."

Xu Ke smiled and said, "What? Are you convinced?"

Wu Yushen said: "It will be very different if this is the case, and many scenes will be pushed back."

"He is the boss. As long as he is willing to invest money, you don't have to think about these things. John, we are no longer young, and we can't be as willful as we were when we were young. Times have changed, and the mainland film market is different from that of Hong Kong and even more different from Hollywood."

Wu Yushen said: "Huang Xiaoming contacted me, but he is still very loyal and is willing to give a discount on the pay to finish the movie."

Xu Ke said: "Did you really not see it? He Huanzai doesn't like him and doesn't even want to pay for money."

Wu Yushen sighed and said, "I always feel sorry for those actors who have been terminated."

Xu Ke said: "If you still use the original team, what is the difference from the past? Since you agree with this version of the script, you have to accept the change."

Wu Yushen said: "Do you think I'm old?"

Xu Ke said: "If you don't get old, we can shoot at least ten more years, right? Anyway, as long as someone is willing to invest in me and my body allows me, I will continue to shoot, not to make money, but because I like this industry and I reluctantly launch it."

Wu Yu was silent. In fact, his real thoughts were the same as Xu Ke. His directorial career was on a downward trend. In fact, he could have retired at the most glorious time in Hollywood. The reason for persistence was no longer a matter of money, but liked it, from the bottom of his heart.

Xu Ke said: "I can't read it wrong. Hehuanzai is capable. Since he dares to take over this project, he can bring this project back to life."

Wu Yushen felt like he was stabbed in his heart. In fact, he had long known that in the eyes of investors, "Taiping Wheel" had long been declared deadly. Even if Li Ming was alive, the subsequent 150 million investment might not be easy to be in place. Since Xiaoma Pictures was blocked from its listing, Li Ming has changed. Wu Yushen saw a gambler-like look in his eyes, and also realized that Li Ming’s real purpose was not to do this movie well, but to achieve the goal of making Xiaoma Pictures listed through this movie.

Li Ming's sudden death made Wu Yushen nervous. He once thought that "Taiping Wheel" would be stranded and would never be released. Fortunately, Zhang Hehuan appeared in time and took over the project.

If it weren't for Zhang Hehuan, maybe the movie would have been dead.

Wu Yushen raised another question, that is, some special effects work on the movie was handed over to Xu Ke's studio in Xinxingyuan. After all, he didn't know the strength of the studio.
