Because there is no time, because there is no opportunity, and because of the immense self-blame, Ms. Lan simply doesn’t know how to behave.
Care, obviously, as a mother, Ms. Lan doesn’t know what true care looks like.
It was companionship, care, and consideration that lasted for a long time, but all of this became impossible as time went by.
So, I can only use the huge amount of money I got in exchange for time to spend it, looking forward to a look back from my son.
This may sound humble and exaggerated, but in fact, this is the actual situation.
Therefore, although Wu Di's current feedback to Ms. Lan cannot be said to be very satisfactory, for Ms. Lan personally, it is already quite satisfying.
However, if this condition is taken separately, it is not considered from the perspective of a businessman, but from the perspective of a mother.
And don’t forget that Ms. Lan is also a very successful businessman. She worked hard alone in a foreign country and relied on her own hands to work hard.
After earning such a large family fortune, looking back, she felt very empty. So, she thought of her son, whom she had not contacted for a long time, and thought that she could give him some affection, even though this kind of affection had no foundation cultivated since childhood.
What I want to mention here is the second prerequisite. Another major factor that prompted Ms. Lan to resolutely throw money into the bottomless pit of skin transplantation is that the project of skin transplantation is indeed good, and the investment prospects are huge!
In fact, although additional investment has been made for such a film, it is obvious that the cost of this film is still much less than that of Master, and it is not of the same order of magnitude at all.
After all, there are no big scenes, even if there are some special effects production, generally speaking, the investment in reskinning is much lower from all aspects.
Under the premise that the cost is controllable, for such a youth fantasy film, and the actors are basically reliable, there is little pressure to repay the capital, and it is relatively easy to make money.
The bigger the investment, the faster the position among producers will rise. Now, Ms. Lan's company has surpassed Mingzhu Company and become the number one producer.
When the time comes to make money back and make money, the one with the biggest profit will obviously be Ms. Lan.
This transaction is not a loss no matter how you calculate it, and you may even make a huge profit.
It is understandable to be able to guarantee no loss and still make a small profit. Where does the big profit come from? After all, Ms. Lan has been ripped off several times by Zhang Feng, and now it seems that she will continue to be ripped off.
risks of.
Of course it’s from Wu Di’s perspective!
What if Wu Di becomes famous?
Although the investment in a movie is indeed a bit large, if you can open up the market through one movie and even make your own son famous, aren't there many opportunities to make money in the future?
In fact, making money is also a matter of patience. As long as you have patience, you can take a long-term approach to catch big fish. At this time, small sacrifices are nothing. Ms. Lan is also targeting the future.
Before changing her skin, she had always wanted to return to domestic entertainment with the company's funds, expand the market, and make a lot of money.
However, the plan has always been there, but the suitable anchor point has never been found.
For investment companies, what they like the most is to make a big profit out of a small investment. In fact, they are not that fond of films that involve big investments and big profits.
Although this kind of film has a higher probability of success in the end and the overall income will be greater, the pressure of early investment is really too great.
Even an overseas company with sufficient funds like Ms. Lan has to think twice if it really wants to support such a film.
Some medium-investment movies are a good choice. Movies of this type often have less grand scenes and are not too shabby, but they are not enough to be considered annual blockbusters.
Films with this kind of investment often focus on other aspects because they cannot win on the big stage.
The most important thing is the story and plot.
As long as there is a relatively complete story, and the director has certain photography skills and aesthetic taste, such a medium-invested movie is very likely to achieve good results in the film market.
It is even possible to surpass those big productions with a small scale.
Just when Ms. Lan was choosing an investment target, skin-changing caught her attention. It should be said that it was Wu Di who was able to achieve this cooperation.
Judging from the situation at the time, even if Ms. Lan found Wu Di, if he had not been selected by the skin-changing crew to be the leading actor, then this investment would not have been realized at all.
In fact, if Ms. Lan found out that her precious son was just a miserable extra in Hengdian, she would never let him continue to act in movies.
Why bother?
Take that pain?
Isn’t it great to have a mother to support you?
However, at that time, when Ms. Lan discovered Wu Di, Wu Di had already joined the group. She could not only contact her son, but also provide him with career support, and it was very possible to make a lot of money. Such a good thing, Ms. Lan would not
Let it go.
"Boss Wu, tell me, how about I go find Jingjing?"
"What are you doing with her?"
"This matter should have nothing to do with her. She has stopped working at Big Eye Entertainment for a long time. I can guarantee this!"
Sure enough!
Knowing that Zhang Feng would definitely raise suspicions in this direction, Wu Di quickly cleared the relationship with Han Jingjing. Seeing his enthusiasm, Zhang Feng immediately sneered: "Look at how anxious you are to defend Jingjing like this!"
"No, don't get me wrong. That's not what I meant. I just think there should be basic trust between people."
"Although Jingjing has a criminal record, she has now changed her ways and has not contacted anyone from Big Eye Entertainment again. As her boss, I still hope that the crew can trust her."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't feel comfortable staying on the set. It's not that you are wrong to doubt her. It's just that if she is suspected, then at least until the filming of the film is completed, Jingjing will not be suitable to appear on the set. Who can guarantee her
Didn’t you collect scraps and send them to Big Eye Entertainment?”
"I say this for the sake of the crew."
"You can also think about it. If you really can't trust her, I won't let her get close to the crew. It's convenient for you and it's convenient for me too."
Wu Di didn't mean to be angry when he said this. His expression was very calm, his tone was also very calm, and the look he looked at Zhang Feng was even more calm.
It can be said that he is just stating a fact, and this fact is indeed of great importance.
There is a logic in this. If you don't trust Han Jingjing, you don't trust Wu Di. Although this is a bit exaggerated, this connection can still be established.
After all, given the closeness between Wu Di and Han Jingjing, even if Han Jingjing does not appear on the set, in fact, as long as she can stay with Wu Di, she can get first-hand information from the crew.
This is what Wu Di is worried about.
This news is indeed too specific, and it is basically consistent with the current situation of the skin-changing crew, which makes people suspicious.
On this point, Wu Di very much agreed with Zhang Feng. He did not blindly defend Han Jingjing. He said this because he was also thinking about the crew.
Even people who are very close to each other still have a side that they don't understand. What's more, he and Han Jingjing have only known each other for a few months, so they definitely don't know each other well.
If the news was really revealed by her, as the lead actor, Wu Di also has an unshirkable responsibility for the crew.
This kind of problem is always very troublesome, and you have no way to claim financial compensation. Perhaps you can only express condemnation.
But what about facts and condemnation?
The negative impact has been caused and is basically irreversible. We can only hope that it will not cause too much impact.
"Who said I suspected Jingjing?" After a long time, Zhang Feng finally recovered from his shock and understood Wu Di's intention.
It turned out that he had misunderstood her intention and thought that she was suspecting Han Jingjing of leaking the secret. In fact, Zhang Feng had never had such an idea.
What she was thinking about was obviously another thing.
"Then why did you mention her?"
"Of course I want her to find out who revealed this news to Big Eye Entertainment."
"I see!"
"So this is what you want to know!"
Wu Di breathed a deep sigh of relief, what he needed was trust.
This kind of thing, even if the truth is found out, is actually a bad account. Only trust is the fundamental way to solve this matter.
In fact, during the movie's promotion period, all kinds of news were flying all over the place. Zhang Feng was already very familiar with this state.
In fact, this kind of thing may not necessarily have real evidence. It may be just based on personal speculation and a piece of news can be posted.
It's not necessarily someone who leaked the secret. The only thing that makes people feel bad is the platform on which the news appeared.
Who posted it on Big Eye Entertainment?
Isn't this a coincidence!
"What do you want to do if you find out?"
"Of course I have to know who is the enemy and who is my friend. As long as I know who is behind the scenes to throw dirty water on my movie, I will not let him go!"
"When your funds are in place, we will start to promote it. Good and bad, mine and yours, all will be sent up in waves. If I don't let it go well, no one can think of it!"
He was gnashing his teeth and his eyes were ten times more fierce. Seeing Zhang Feng's fighting spirit, Wu Di was relieved.
Yeah!
They are all trying to break into the Spring Festival stalls, how can they not do something ruthless?
Propaganda has always had positive and negative aspects, and the two directions are intertwined.
Of course, there are mostly positive reports about ourselves. Needless to say, about our competitors, there is no positive news, but there are a lot of negative ones.
These days, no one’s butt is clean, and even if you dig three feet into the ground, you will find a lot of junk, and there is nothing you can’t find.
Zhang Feng rubbed his hands and looked very excited, great!
As long as the funds are in place, she can start quickly!
hehe!
Isn’t it just concocting news?
You can, but I can’t?
Now that he agreed, Wu Di had no reason to continue to delay. Before it was too late, he immediately dialed Ms. Lan's phone number.
All are all...
It was a long call. Ms. Lan was the big boss and must be very busy. It was a great blessing to be able to pick up this call.
When no one answered the phone, Wu Di comforted himself like this. To be honest, after not contacting him for a long time, Wu Di was actually a little nervous about today's call.
Mainly, the intention is too obvious.
Although Wu Di knew that under the current circumstances, as long as he was willing to keep in touch with Ms. Lan, or even take the initiative to contact her, it would be enough to make Ms. Lan excited.
However, as a man and a pure man, every time I call, it’s basically nothing but asking for money. That feeling is really not a good one.
However, Wu Di cannot do anything against his will.
For example, when he takes the initiative to make phone calls, firstly, he really does not have that kind of true feelings, and he does not care much about Ms. Lan's current situation. Secondly, he is not a person who has nothing to say, let alone being attentive to nothing.
, this is not in line with his style of doing things.
Since he didn't have that heart, he wouldn't work hard in that direction. Apart from asking for money, Wu Di really couldn't find any other reason to call Ms. Lan.
What's more, this is actually not his responsibility.
Although he asked for money every time, it was not his initiative. It was all controlled by Zhang Feng, and he was very innocent.
perhaps……
Wu Di suddenly thought of something, could it be that this news was not revealed by Jingjing at all?
Suddenly, a gust of cool wind blew by. Although his body was quite strong, Wu Di still felt a chill, which was so intense that it penetrated his heart.
Could it be related to him?
no!
Be sure to find out!
Who dares to plot against him behind his back?
"Hello?"
"Child, is that you?" Ms. Lan's voice was urgent and her breathing was a little unsteady, as if she had run from a long distance away and was still breathing heavily.
Originally, Wu Di had given up all hope and felt that he needed to call again after a while. Suddenly, another voice came from the receiver.
Wu Di quickly picked up.
"Yeah, um, do you have time recently? I want to meet you."
After hesitating for a long time, Wu Di still couldn't say anything. He knew clearly that Ms. Lan definitely wanted to hear him call "Fuck" at this moment, but he still couldn't.
In fact, for him who came from time-travel, this is not difficult in itself, and he is not his biological mother. If it were based on his previous personality, it would be no problem to call him grandma, let alone mom.
However, I don’t know what’s going on. It’s obviously a very simple thing, but when the critical moment comes, Wu Di can’t always do it.
Every time the words came to my mouth, I muttered them several times, but I couldn't say them out, and I always had to swallow them back.
At first, Wu Di couldn't figure it out and didn't know where the problem was. However, just at that moment, he suddenly understood!
It’s me!
It's Wu Di's original self who is stopping him!
Although the time travel has been completed long ago and various fusion works are almost in progress, Wu Di has not been able to retain much of the original memory.
Logically speaking, the original person should have no influence on him, and this is also true. During the period when Wu Di was filming the movie, the original person could be said to have no interference with him.
It is precisely because of this that Wu Di ignored the influence of his original body on himself.
