They were chatting happily when someone knocked on the door and came in. It was Zhang Jizhong who suddenly arrived.
"The Condor" was ready to start shooting around October last year, with only a small investment needed.
In order to get the shares of Bright Times, and also to get the crew rights given to him by Wang Jinhua, he has been waiting, and the other investors are also waiting.
At first, several investors had some objections, but seeing the momentum of "Micro Entertainment", they had no choice but to suppress their opinions.
Later, when they looked at the billion-dollar value "Micro Entertainment" created for Bright Era and Wang Jinhua's own legendary halo, they were convinced.
During this period of time, the popularity of the "Shen Condor" event exploded before it even aired, so they ignored it.
How about the crew? They left it to Wang Jinhua and Zhang Jizhong with complete confidence and prepared to win.
Now in the "The Condor" event, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei have overwhelmingly received the most votes. Although the event is not over yet, the result has been decided. This means that the male and female protagonists have also been decided. The popularity of "The Condor" has also been
It started to get popular, and its popularity far exceeded Zhang Jizhong’s expectations.
The pre-casting preparations for "The Condor" and the selection of the male and female leads have been successfully completed.
Zhang Jizhong didn't want to wait any longer. Waiting any longer would be a waste of time.
"Chu Xuan, Qianqian, in a few days you and director Zhao Jian will go to Yandang Mountain in Leqing City, Zhejiang Province. They will handle their affairs. You should familiarize yourself with the environment in advance and get ready for the scene. Your sister Hua, Yu Min and I,
Some of the teachers from the directing team stayed in the company to select roles, and then came back to join you after the casting."
Zhang Jizhong looked at everyone and said, "How is it?"
Wang Jinhua and Liu Xiaoli looked at Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei and let them decide for themselves.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei looked at each other, and after a glance, they nodded to Zhang Jizhong and said, "Okay."
Zhang Jizhong smiled slightly and said to Wang Jinhua: "Then I will ask someone to bring the equipment over tomorrow, find an empty area in the company to set up a temporary studio, and start casting the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
"Brother Zhang, you make the decision, I will cooperate." Wang Jinhua smiled.
Zhang Jizhong's smile grew stronger, and it was the happiest time for him to work with Wang Jinhua.
Not only does it avoid the trouble of arguing with the management, but it also eliminates worries about marketing. There are also two actors who are very suitable for the male and female protagonists and they are our own people, which is very comfortable.
"Brother Zhang, has Xiao Yang Guo found a suitable candidate?" Chu Xuan asked.
This question also made Liu Yifei, Wang Jinhua and Liu Xiaoli interested.
Zhang Jizhong had already found the young Yang Guo in "The Condor" before, but Wang Jinhua rejected the role.
"First of all, let me say that I have no discrimination against this kid, but there is indeed a big gap between his looks and Chu Xuan's. Even if he has a 18-year-old transformation, he won't be able to change his appearance." Wang Jinhua said at the time while holding the photo.
Chu Xuan, Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli couldn't help laughing at that time, and Zhang Jizhong also couldn't help laughing or crying.
But Zhang Jizhong also knew that what Wang Jinhua said was indeed the truth. If the person was not replaced, the audience would definitely complain.
He doesn't need to worry about marketing, and he has enough time.
Before the group was formed, his 1,800 people were either resting at home and waiting, or working part-time in other crews.
These people came from all over the country. At that time, he sent a text message to these people: Find a little Yang Guo who is about 13 years old in the image of Chu Xuan. Whether it is a neighbor or a passerby, if he finds it, he will be rewarded with 10,000 yuan.
Zhang Jizhong smiled at Chu Xuan and said, "Why are you so handsome? You know it's really hard to find you?"
"Thank you, Brother Zhang, for the compliment." Chu Xuan said with a smile in his eyes.
"Shameless." Liu Yifei arched her eyebrows.
Zhang Jizhong took out a photo from his briefcase and handed it to Wang Jinhua.
Liu Xiaoli leaned over and looked down with Wang Jinhua.
"This kid can do it." Liu Xiaoli smiled.
"It's really not bad. Is he a child star?" Wang Jinhua nodded.
Zhang Jizhong shook his head and said: "No, I have never acted, but I have some acting talent. I will just teach him when the time comes. Xiao Yang Guo doesn't have many roles."
Wang Jinhua rubbed his forehead and said, "This kid has a celebrity look, what's his name?"
"Yang Yang." Zhang Jizhong replied.
Wang Jinhua handed the photo to Chu Xuan. After Liu Yifei and him looked at it for a few times, he returned the photo to Zhang Jizhong.
"Chu Xuan, Qianqian, you guys should get ready in the next few days. Director Zhao Jian will leave when he's ready." Zhang Jizhong stood up and said.
"Okay." Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei agreed.
Watching Zhang Jizhong close the door and leave, Wang Jinhua checked her phone and said, "My contract with Huayi will expire in a few days, and Chu Xuan and you will have to sign a new contract by then."
Chu Xuan nodded.
When Hua Jie's contract expired, he, Hu Jun, Xia Yu and other artists signed under Hua Jie's name had no connection with Huayi at all.
When the time comes for endorsements, the announcement will be directly linked to Bright Times, not Huayi Entertainment.
Artist resources can also be arranged as soon as possible without being delayed by the contract between Hua Jie and Huayi.
As the Brilliant Era enters a group of first- and second-tier artists, the company can slowly get up and running.
As for what Huayi would lose if it left a total of 17 first- and second-tier artists including him? That was beyond the scope of his and Sister Hua's consideration.
It feels a little unreasonable to look at it this way, but most of Huayi’s artists were signed by Sister Hua on her own. Now that Sister Hua’s contract has expired, it seems reasonable to take away some of them.
The most important thing is that the conflict between Huayi and Sister Hua is irreconcilable.
If not, it is absolutely impossible for Sister Hua to think of leaving Huayi.
After all, Huayi has only reached its peak under the management of Sister Hua. She has witnessed the growth of this company with her own eyes.
Sister Hua is about to leave this company completely, and she feels a little sad in her heart.
…
This morning, Huayi President’s office.
Wang Jinhua took an assistant and handed the contract to a lawyer and several documents to a Huayi board member.
The lawyer took the contract and read it carefully.
The board members took the document and looked at it slowly.
Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei sat on the sofa with their legs crossed, saying nothing.
five minutes later.
"The contract expired at midnight last night and it's confirmed," the lawyer said.
Wang Jinhua, Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei remained silent.
Half an hour later.
"Although we all know who you are, Jinhua, we still have to go through the process."
The board members nodded and said: "All obligations have been fulfilled and there are no financial problems."
Wang Jinhua put down her crossed legs, stood up, crossed her arms, and walked towards the desk.
Under the gaze of Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei, Wang Jinhua took down a framed photo from the exhibition wooden shelf and walked towards them.
Wang Jinhua raised the photo frame and showed it to them, smiling: "I will keep this photo forever to commemorate the exciting years when we struggled together."
In the photo, there is a group photo of the three of them, with smiles on each of their faces.
Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei suddenly felt moved, and each raised their smiles.
"My eldest brother and I have always kept it in our offices." Wang Zhonglei nodded.
"Jinhua, come back often when you have time." Wang Zhongjun said.
Wang Jinhua nodded and said with a curved eyebrow: "I welcome you both to visit me at any time at the Brilliant Era."
She winked at her assistant, who immediately stood up.
Before leaving, Wang Jinhua pondered for a moment, as if she had something unspeakable to hide.
After a while, she raised her lips and said: "Boss, Mr. Wang, I remember that Director Feng and I told you that it would not be good to buy less famous paintings and antiques and cut off the company's capital flow."
Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei twitched their mouths, looking slightly embarrassed.
It seems that the conflict between Wang Jinhua and them is not just due to fear.
"gone."
Wang Jinhua walked out of the door with her assistant.
The moment she walked out of the door, she breathed a sigh of relief and felt relaxed all over.
But looking at the decorative paintings and hangings she personally selected on the walls on both sides of the corridor, she felt a little melancholy.
At the turn of the millennium, she also worked side by side with the two CEOs Wang. The three of them had the same goal, which was to develop the company.
It was a beautiful time and full of energy.
But she also knew that one day she and Hua Yi would part ways.
It’s not just a question of ambition, but also a question of attitude towards artists.
As a manager, she naturally has to consider all aspects of the artist's interests.
This benefit is not only about money, but also about life and personal psychological condition.
As far as capital is concerned, profit is money, and if you want money, you have to squeeze artists dry.
Because of this, she has a natural conflict with capital.
Although she is also a capital now, she thinks it is different from pure capital.
She knows how to make artists stay willingly, and she also knows how to cultivate artists in the long run. Her capital is destined to be different from other capitals, and Bright Times is destined to be different from other entertainment companies.
Taking the elevator to the lobby, she turned around and glanced at the words "Huayi Brothers". Wang Jinhua's eyes showed a rare hint of complexity.
But she turned her head and looked towards the square outside the building.
Chu Xuan, Liu Yifei, Hu Jun, Xia Yu and about ten people were all there, looking at her with smiles.
Wang Jinhua smiled and walked out without any hesitation.
Outside, her family is waiting for her.
"Why are you all here?"
"If Mr. Chu invites you, we dare not not come."
Xia Yu joked, Hu Jun, Li Congcheng and others were smiling.
"You brat, you are the only one with many tricks." Wang Jinhua glanced at Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan raised his lips slightly and waved his hands: "Sister, get in the car and go home."
Liu Yifei covered her mouth and laughed, feeling very warm.
When Wang Jinhua heard the word "go home", she seemed to be amused and smiled.
There were media reporters outside the square. I don’t know where they heard the news. When they saw Wang Jinhua appear, they wanted to surround her.
The bodyguards brought by Chu Xuan and others came forward to stop them, and then they took the opportunity to get in the car and transfer to the Brilliant Era.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the artist lounges on each floor of the Huayi Building, artists in twos and threes were gazing down, looking at Chu Xuan with envy and jealousy, with different expressions.
