Huang Jingkun's personal self-esteem is somewhat unacceptable for bowing his head and admitting his mistakes to a junior like Chen Feng, but he is no longer a young man, he is an adult who has been in the entertainment industry for decades.
His personal life has long been entangled with companies and figures of all sizes in the entertainment industry, making it difficult to untie him. As a great director, many people might have given him face before the movie Galaxy Era hit the streets.
, giving him a considerable say.
But now Galaxy Era, a movie with an investment of nearly 600 million, has been sold out, and the cost cannot be recovered. So the investors behind the movie asked him to bow his head and apologize to Chen Feng, admit his mistake, and settle the matter. Can he refuse?
He couldn't refuse.
These investors were very polite by not asking anyone to beat him up. Therefore, he is now able to correct his mentality. Of course, let him come over and bow his head to Chen Feng to admit his mistake, kneel down and ask for forgiveness, etc.
He definitely won't do it.
Therefore, even though he was very polite to Chen Feng at the beginning, he did not say a soft word and instead went tit-for-tat. It wasn't until Chen Feng's attitude became very tough that he pretended that he couldn't bear it and tactfully gave in.
He can now understand the urgency and fear of Yuanda Film, Wanjia Media and other stakeholders at this time.
Maybe people outside think that the bad luck of Yuanda Film Company and Wanjia Media is bad luck. But those of them who know the inside story know very well that Yuanda Film was investigated and the contracted actor was directly arrested. It was behind the scenes.
Someone reported it to the relevant departments, and the evidence was conclusive. This was exactly the same method used by Chen Feng to deal with Wang Gang and others, forcing them one by one to publicly apologize to Chen Feng.
The husband of the CEO of Wanjia Media had an affair and was cheated on. Although there is no evidence pointing to Chen Feng, their intuition tells them that it must be related to Chen Feng. Therefore, these two companies are afraid. They are now a big business.
As an independent director, Chen Feng has made a lot of money now, but after all, the boat is easy to turn around, and he has nothing to grasp. People who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. No matter how much personal losses Chen Feng suffers, he cannot have two companies.
The loss is huge.
At this time, there is really no need for the two sides to fight to the death. Anyway, it is a foregone conclusion that the movie Galaxy Era will hit the market, and they cannot change it even if they want to. Their attempt to retaliate against Chen Feng failed, and Chen Feng counterattacked instead, resulting in losses.
Tragic. Why bother?
When doing business, peace must be the most important thing. If they really fight and kill, it is completely inconsistent with their purpose of doing business. Especially after Chen Feng has shown great strength, it will be very difficult to fight with Chen Feng to the end.
It's unwise.
They don't know the background behind Chen Feng, and the unknown is what scares them the most. They are now very afraid of Chen Feng, and they dare not take any further revenge against Chen Feng. They are even afraid that Chen Feng will continue to retaliate against them. Especially
The other investors of Galaxy Era who have not yet been retaliated against are even more worried.
Therefore, they immediately found Huang Jingkun to put pressure on him, asking him to come forward, make peace with Chen Feng, and even lower his head to admit his mistake. In their opinion, Huang Jingkun was the one who started this matter. If he hadn't gone first
If you provoke Chen Feng, there will be no box office disastrous later, let alone the current predicament.
They wanted Huang Jingkun to settle this matter as soon as possible, otherwise, they might not care about their previous friendship with him.
Huang Jingkun couldn't avoid this matter. So he contacted Wang Gang through his connections, asked him to be the matchmaker, and made an appointment with Chen Feng to meet him.
However, Huang Jingkun is also an old fox. It is impossible for him to agree to the two conditions proposed by Chen Feng so easily. On the contrary, it seems that he is too talkative and too weak.
He stirred the coffee silently and waited for it to cool down, then drank it slowly.
Of course, Chen Feng was not in a hurry. He also imitated his example and stirred the coffee with a coffee spoon, and even took out his mobile phone to watch.
The two of them didn't speak for five or six minutes. After everyone drank more than half of the cup of coffee, Huang Jingkun hit the coffee spoon on the coffee cup, making a clanking sound, which attracted Chen Feng's attention. Then he sighed and said:
"Okay, I promise you these two conditions."
Chen Feng was not surprised by this. He immediately stood up and stretched out his hand towards him with a smile on his face. Huang Jingge's face was slightly sullen, but he stood up immediately and reached out to hold his hand.
"I have to admit that I misjudged you before. You are a very talented young man. As an old-timer, I would like to remind you that a person will not be as good as a flower. It is good for you to become famous at a young age.
, but don’t be too arrogant. You must know that there is heaven outside the world, and there are people outside the world.”
"Thank you, Director Wang, for your advice. As my senior, you have made several films that I admire very much. I have also learned a lot from you. In fact, we can become friends, not enemies.
" Chen Feng's words are very sincere, "If I have the opportunity in the future, I would like to cooperate with you. Don't forget, I am actually a good actor, and I don't necessarily have to shoot every movie by myself.
,dont you agree?"
Speaking of which, apart from the previous scolding on the Internet, the two of them had no deep hatred. Even if they did, it was Chen Feng who caused the other party to lose the box office. Chen Feng had nothing to lose. If possible, Chen Feng
I also don’t want to fight with Huang Jingkun, Yuanda Films and Wanjia Media.
Huang Jingkun couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly when he heard this. He had never thought of the possibility of cooperating with Chen Feng before, but now after hearing his words, he suddenly felt that it was not impossible to really cooperate with Chen Feng.
First of all, Chen Feng's movie script is really wonderful. Even if he now stubbornly thinks that Chen Feng's "This Man is from the Earth" is not a classic, he has to admire how powerful the movie script is. If
If we can get Chen Feng's good script and let him film it, he will definitely be able to sell it at the box office and win back the reputation that was damaged this time.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hold Chen Feng's hand tightly, and a smile appeared on his face: "I admire your script writing ability very much. If you have a good script, we can definitely cooperate.
"
"Okay." Chen Feng shook hands with him vigorously, then withdrew his hand and said with a smile, "I have a script on hand to write, but this is the second movie I plan to make. It is a comedy type.
I don’t think it’s suitable for you.”
It is true that Huang Jingkun has never made a comedy film so far. He used to mainly make art films to build his reputation and won many awards internationally. Later, he continued to make commercial films, including action films, science fiction films, and romance films.
Huang Jingkun immediately said: "If the script is good enough, I can definitely try a comedy."
Chen Feng shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, I have already approved the project for this movie, and it's not easy to hand over the script to others."
Huang Jingkun was disappointed in his heart, but on the surface he said calmly: "That's such a pity. Originally, I wanted to cooperate with you right away. However, your first movie has not been finished yet, and your second movie
The project was approved right away, was it a bit too urgent?"
Chen Feng said of course he was anxious. He still has the directing proficiency and acting proficiency granted by the cheating system. If one day the system suddenly takes it back, then who will he cry to? Therefore, he must hurry up for the second movie. He has decided
After returning from abroad this time, I started shooting immediately.
"Anyway, I am idle, and since the first movie did well at the box office, I just want to make the second one while the audience is still buying it."
Hearing Chen Feng talk about the box office of his movie, Huang Jingkun felt a sense of boredom in his heart. He raised his hand and looked at his watch and said, "It's getting late. I have other appointments in the evening, so I'll leave first."
"Okay. I hope you can fulfill the two conditions I made within two days."
After Huang Jingkun nodded, he stood up, took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Chen Feng: "This is my business card. If you have a good script in the future, you can contact me. The price is easy to negotiate."
"Okay. If there is a suitable script, I will come to you as soon as possible." Chen Feng stood up and took his business card, then took out his own business card and handed it to the other party.
The two exchanged business cards and didn't stay any longer. They walked out of the box together. Huang Jingkun took the initiative to go to the cashier to settle the bill, which made Chen Feng feel a lot better about him.
