In fact, Jiangbei is very supportive of Fatty Hai going back to inherit the family business. Apart from Fatty Hai not having any talent for making movies, as one of the "accomplices" who once participated in tricking Li Youqing into leaving the entertainment industry,
He should not continue to stay in the entertainment industry.
After all, as long as you are in a circle, there will be communication, and when there is communication, secrets will be easily leaked, and many uncontrollable factors will arise.
So being able to leave is the best thing.
At least you don't have to worry about the secret leaking out from Hai Dapang's mouth.
But this is Jiangbei's own inner thoughts. The main reason why Big Fatty Hai really has no choice but to leave the entertainment industry and go back to inherit the family business is...
"More than 99% of the investors in the entertainment industry now withdraw their investment without saying a word when they hear that I am directing a movie, even if it is a nominal producer. I have no choice but to go back and inherit the family business if I can't survive.
"
At an open-air barbecue stall, Hai Dapang and Jiangbei's family were sitting around a table. Hai Dapang, who had already drank in advance and blushed, was vomiting his bitterness in mouthfuls and recounting his bitterness.
"They are trying to destroy a director genius who has never been seen in a century!"
"Director Hai, don't be discouraged. I think as long as you work hard, you will prove yourself one day." Seeing Fatty Hai crying sadly, Li Youqing quickly comforted him.
Jiang Bei and Zhang Jiuliang next to them lowered their heads and ate barbecue. Not only did they not feel pity for Big Fatty Hai's bitter words, but they actually wanted to laugh.
Because looking at Hai Da Pang's career as a director in the past few years, starting from the first "Santa Claus", there are nearly ten movies shot in mainland China in the past few years, 70% of which were lost money.
.
yes.
Investment is inherently a risky thing, and not every film by every director is guaranteed to be a hit.
Everyone can accept a wave of small losses and small losses.
But the problem is that Hai Da Pang's successful movies have nothing to do with the investors in the entertainment industry. Instead, they got on board by making movies that hit the street.
If this is based on conspiracy theories, investors might have to wonder if Hai Dapang wants to single-handedly bring down the entire capital tycoon in the entertainment industry.
Even if there are no conspiracy theories, after two or three consecutive failed investments in Big Fatty Hai, those film and television companies have gone bankrupt and shrunk, who still has the money to invest in his movies?
And when those film and television companies that didn't invest in the Big Fat Movie saw the tragic fate of those who invested, how could they come to their doorstep?
So over time, our big fat brother was completely ostracized by the capital market in the entertainment industry, and no one was willing to continue paying the IQ tax.
"No chance." Big Fatty Hai shook his head, picked up the bottle of wine and took a sip, sighing: "After the sun rises tomorrow, there will no longer be director Fatty Hai in the world. Yes.
will only be the successor of Dafu Real Estate."
"I suspect you are showing off in disguise." Liangliang, who was eating squid, raised his head and said suspiciously.
"Be more confident and remove the word doubt." Jiang Bei joked.
"Brother Jiang, Liang Mei, you really misunderstood that I am fat!" Hai Dapang almost couldn't help crying when he heard this. His face was full of grievances and he said: "You know it. Compared with being the successor of the richest man,
People, what I hope more is to keep chasing dreams. Just like Brother Jiang for Young Sister..."
"Ahem!"
Jiang Bei, who was eating skewers, suddenly felt like he was choking on chili peppers. He covered his chest, turned his head to one side and coughed violently.
"Beibei, are you okay? Let's take a sip of soy milk to moisten your throat." Li Youqing quickly patted Jiang Bei's back, then picked up the soy milk he drank and handed it over, with a look of concern on his face.
"Brother, paper." Liangliang also took out two pieces of paper and handed them to his brother, then glanced at Fatty Hai, with a hint of murderous intent.
Only then did Fatty Hai come back to his senses. He lowered his head and laughed like a child who had done something wrong, not daring to continue talking.
"I'm fine." Jiang Bei took a sip of soy milk to regain his composure, waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, and looked at Li Youqing's expression before looking at Fatty Hai, bringing the topic back and asking: "You said your dream
It’s making a movie, so what’s your purpose in making a movie? To make money? Or to become famous? You have to know that dreams have an end.”
Big Fatty Hai was stunned by this question. He held the wine bottle and thought for a while before whispering: "I may be afraid that you will laugh when I say it. I don't make movies for money or fame. I just want to win the Star Award."
The place of our Chinese films will contribute to the rise of our Chinese films."
"(ノ⊙ω⊙)ノ嚯! It is indeed a dream." Liangliang shook her head and exclaimed, then picked up the mutton skewers and started to eat them.
"Since the Star Awards was established in 1927, no Chinese director or actor has ever won this award." Li Youqing said thoughtfully.
The Star Awards is an international film award and the highest international honorary award. It is the highest honor that workers in the film and television industry around the world pursue throughout their lives.
However, due to the late development of China's film and television industry, insufficient attention to upstream talent training, and the obsession with traffic and popularity in recent years, the level of China's film and television industry has not been improved, and it still remains at the 'entertainment level' without rising.
To the true 'spiritual level'.
Therefore, it is difficult for Chinese film and television dramas to be selected for the Star Awards.
If no works are selected, naturally no one will win the honor.
"You must think it's ridiculous that a king of bad movies like me can have such an idea, right?" Fatty Hai seemed to have drunk a little too much, his chubby face was red, and he stuck out his tongue when he spoke.
"Your idea is not funny at all, but the method is wrong." Jiang Bei touched his chin and said.
"Brother Jiang, what do you mean..." Hai Dapang asked curiously.
Jiangbei definitely doesn't want Fatty Hai to continue making movies, so how to help him transfer his obsession has become the most critical.
Eat two more bites of roasted leeks.
I took another sip of my wife’s soy milk.
The old man started talking nonsense.
"Since your goal is to have a place for our Chinese films at the Star Awards, then why not use the resources you already have to accomplish this goal instead of starting at the bottom?"
Big Fatty Hai looked confused, obviously he still didn't understand the meaning.
Li Youqing, on the other hand, was half-comprehensive and couldn't help but ask: "Beibei, do you mean to let Director Hai use the energy of his family's Dafu Cinema chain?"
Jiang Bei nodded and shook his head, and said: "Not only can you use the Dafu Cinema Line, but the entire Dafu Real Estate can become the cornerstone for you to realize your dream. You have to know that in fact, hard work and sweat alone are not enough to complete your dream. You must have a cornerstone. And
To put it bluntly, this cornerstone is money.”
"Without money as the cornerstone, how can you talk about your dreams?"
"Just like you are now isolated by entertainment industry capital, isn't it because they are unwilling to invest and give you money?"
"Since you can't survive within the downstream rules of the game, why not show your cards directly, become the maker of the rules of the game, and control everything to realize your dream? Wouldn't that be a shortcut?"
"If you can't stand on the podium of the Star Awards as a director, then you might as well make your company's name the most eye-catching presence at the Star Awards."
Hai Dapang is different from others.
He has a .asxs. and a height that most people cannot reach.
So there are many ways to realize your dream.
For example, for those giant foreign film and television companies, basically every year the company's internal films are nominated for the Star Awards, and when everyone reports on the film, the company's name will be mentioned in front of it.
If Hai Dapang could take this path, he might be able to become a director faster.
The evening breeze in September was a bit cool, causing clouds and mist to fill the sky above the barbecue stalls. Occasionally, a few cars drove by on the roadside, kicking up the dust on the roadside.
Li Youqing wrapped herself in thin clothes and leaned against Jiang Bei to keep warm. However, her eyes were staring with interest at a stray cat that ran from nowhere on the ground and was eating the food that had fallen under the table.
Jiang Bei moved his chair back and put his arms around his wife's waist so that she could be closer and warmer.
The gambling king was in good physical condition, but it was already past nine o'clock, and the little girl's upper and lower eyelids started to fight, obviously she couldn't bear it.
Big Fatty Hai sat silently on his chair, lost in thought, and unknowingly put down the beer bottle in his hand.
Until Jiangbei finally left with his wife and sister, he didn't come back to his senses.
…
The next days are still very busy.
Big Fatty Hai has been silent since that night, and no one knows what decision he made.
Li Youqing still goes to the company every day, trying her best to learn about the company's recent business status through other artists in the company, hoping to find strong evidence to get the company to give her resources.
Jiangbei is also very busy. Although there are Liang Liang and Left and Right Eyes at Erjing Film and Television, the establishment of a hot pot restaurant brand chain is imminent.
After XXX brought back the Shizhu red variety of chili peppers and successfully developed the most perfect hot pot base recipe, the establishment of a hot pot brand chain company was on the agenda.
First of all, Jiangbei used the marketing model plan of Haidilao in his previous life to get Li Youqing's approval and allocated 50 million. After obtaining the initial start-up capital, he took the lead in establishing a catering company, and then rented out the stores he was originally optimistic about, and asked XXX to serve as catering
As a company manager, he is responsible for store decoration, recruitment and training.
Of course, it is unrealistic to leave all these things to XXX. After all, there is no company in the world that has done this in relation to Haidilao's model. He has to teach it through words and deeds.
This leaves little free time, and most of the day is spent on training and supervising decoration.
But occasionally Jiangbei would drag Li Youqing to the store to help, trying to arouse her interest in the catering industry.
Unfortunately, Xiao Nizi was only interested in decoration. After personally designing a store decoration style, she went back to Erjing Film and Television to deal with resources.
Jiangbei didn't care about this and decorated the store according to the decoration plan given by Li Youqing. However, he had to make some small problems when nothing happened. Then he asked her to solve the problems when they happened, which made Xiaonizi lose his temper and start to attack Jiangbei.
He said: "Beibei, can you be more mature like an adult? I even gave you the drawings and plans of the entire decoration style, and I will tell you some questions when I have nothing to do at night. Why do you still have something you don't understand?"
Woolen cloth?"
Faced with his wife's questioning, the old man could only think of all kinds of excuses, and in the end, Li Youqing was forced to run back to the store to supervise.
Of course, this is related to the fact that she didn't find out anything.
"Brother, you are really ruthless. In order to prevent your sister-in-law from finding an excuse to get entangled, you actually cut off 70% of the company's external business. Now I think Erjing Film and Television's profits have shrunk significantly this year.
"Liangliang quickly found out the reason, her tone full of exclamation.
Jiang Bei was not angry when he heard this, but touched his chin and said: "Although the left and right methods are a bit hurting the enemy by one thousand and hurting oneself by eight hundred, as long as I can perform the trick well, I don't care at all how much money I lose."
"But the actions of Erjing Film and Television will affect the stock price of Erjing Cinema Line. Yesterday alone, the stock price of Erjing Cinema Line dropped by 3%, and the market value has shrunk by several hundred million. If the financial growth by the end of this year is far
Lower than last year, or even losing money, it is estimated that the Erjing Cinema Chain will be the Sanchuan Cinema Chain before it went bankrupt." Liangliang said with a worried look on his face.
"Bankruptcy? It's good to be bankrupt. It would be best if the entire Erjing Film and Television falls into bankruptcy crisis." Jiang Bei chuckled, his eyes filled with schadenfreude.
Take a look.
This is probably the only boss who expects his company to fall into bankruptcy.
Liangliang shrugged and had no choice but to stop mentioning the matter and walked towards the study with the paper in his arms: "Brother, I will borrow your study for a while."
"What are you doing? You want to draw in my study?" Jiang Bei asked.
"Yes! The school is cooperating with a foreign animation company outside and wants our school to help draw some animation original paintings. Naturally, the school assigns these tasks to us students. Your sister is unlucky and received the ultimate task.
"Liangliang's slightly helpless voice came from the study.
School cooperates with animation company?
It sounds like working with a film crew in an art academy. After all, art students in an art academy have solid painting skills. And the most indispensable part of cartoons produced by animation companies are painters.
But what the hell is the ultimate mission?
Jiang Bei was a little curious and couldn't help shouting into the study: "What is the ultimate mission?"
"My task is to draw the protagonist in the animation, and it can't be a human being. Do you think it's difficult?"
"Are there any royalties?"
"Of course, but what I value more is the graduation certificate promised by the school."
"Let you graduate early?"
"No."
"What is that?"
"It can be used as a death-avoidance token once to prevent me from being persuaded to quit now."
