Ye Ming was not very interested in this matter, and immediately said: "Stop it, stop it, Lao Li, this matter has nothing to do with me, so what you want to do is up to your crew, what do you want to do?"
Sample.
It’s not about what I think. This matter has nothing to do with me, so don’t frame it, otherwise, I’ll sue you for defamation.”
Li Lianjie said angrily: "You actually have the nerve to say that it has nothing to do with you. If you don't have the idea behind this matter, would the Huo family think of going to England to file a lawsuit?
This kind of thing, let alone the Huo family, even in the Chinese entertainment industry, including cross-strait and three places, tell me, who else can think of such a way to do this except you.
Wasn't my Fearless movie released in the UK? Those judges actually filed the case directly."
Ye Ming waved his hand and said: "Lao Li, you have wronged me for this matter. In fact, this is what your crew did, which is not true. Please tell me and ask yourself, at this time, did you say you did something wrong?
.
You wrote that everyone in the Huo family was exterminated. Is this your fault?
Yes, I am a film maker myself and have written several books. I know that this is artistic processing, but artistic processing comes from life, and I cannot say whether it is not true to life or not.
Therefore, when it comes to this kind of thing, first of all, what you did was unethical. Moreover, you are still unwilling to admit your mistakes and are unwilling to compensate. This is a bit of a bully.
Lao Li, don’t you know how influential you are? This movie has already caused a sensation because of your starring role.
In the end, I did the math and found that you can get almost 30 million U.S. dollars in return. If the peripherals sell well, it won't be a problem to get more than 30 million U.S. dollars in minutes.
There is still stable and sustained income around here.
As the leading actor and investor, you have made money, and your investment partners have also made money, but in the end, when you look at the card, people from the Huo family are suspected of being descendants of Fearless Yuanjia.
This thing is all caused by your movie. When the time comes, even if you write about Huo Yuanjia and the Fist of Fury, people will have no basis to sue you.
Therefore, in a situation like this, you are the first to be unreasonable and insist on not admitting your mistakes, otherwise do you think you are too lazy to take care of this matter?"
As a human being, you have to have a conscience, and as an artist, you have to have a conscience even more. You can't really not know whether you are making a movie or not caring about the life and death of others.
Even if the movie sells more box office by doing this, it will be in vain.
This guy Lao Li is definitely a big star. He is an international superstar. His movies are basically very popular. He is considered to be a relatively influential one in Hollywood. Apart from Cheng Long, Lao Li is also a big star in Hollywood.
He can also be considered a representative figure.
But he did something wrong in this matter. He made a lot of money filming Huo Yuanjia, but did he take care of the feelings of the Huo family?
And Lao Li, to be honest.
Some personal matters are handled without consideration. Anyway, people in the entertainment industry know that my stance is not firm on some matters and I don’t say much.
If you believe in Buddhism, just believe in Buddhism, and you are still messing around with that monk. Forget it, it’s hard to talk about this matter. Anyway, Lao Li’s personal belief is not something Ye Ming agrees with.
Therefore, Ye Ming knew that he could not make too close friends with Lao Li. It was a very good thing that everyone could avoid falling out with each other.
Now Ye Ming is also thinking about it. As long as he is provoked by his people and not the kind that makes people angry, he will never interfere. Who can't act?
Ye Ming is a movie king-level person no matter what. As long as the other party doesn't take the initiative to seek death, then now Ye Ming is the kind of person who doesn't want to make more enemies.
Li Lianjie's Fearless crew, this time, he just couldn't stand it, and Guo Degang also came to the door with someone.
If he doesn't care about this matter, what should people outside say? Is he afraid of Li Lianjie?
Of course, if the Huo family didn't donate all the compensation as an education fund, Ye Ming would be too lazy to take care of this matter.
You are neither God nor Superman, so you cannot save the world.
All he can do is have a clear conscience. Therefore, if he acts like this, even if Li Lianjie comes to him, Ye Ming will be able to fight him without hesitation.
After all, Ye Ming took matters into his own hands. What your Huo Yuanjia crew did was not honest, so why don’t you allow others to sue you on this matter?
Li Lianjie was immediately speechless. In fact, he came here this time mostly because of this reason. He was not justified.
I originally thought that although I lost the first-instance lawsuit in China, I did not lose any money, which was relatively acceptable.
During the second trial, the lawyer also said that it was impossible to make major changes to the first-instance verdict, so the second-instance trial basically just upheld the first-instance verdict.
Who would have known that this guy Ye Ming was there, and that this guy was also the kind of absolutely ruthless character who directly encouraged the Huo family to go to England to file a complaint. This matter was a bit difficult for the Fearless crew and Li Lianjie to feel.
.
However, he immediately learned through his lawyer that according to British law, not only would he lose this lawsuit, but he would also definitely have to pay compensation.
Regarding the right of reputation, British regulations require the defendant to prove that he has not damaged the reputation of the plaintiff's ancestors, which is more difficult to prove. Therefore, compensation is a certainty. An out-of-court settlement is a more appropriate result.
Li Lianjie thought for a while and then said: "We did not consider this matter thoroughly and did not consider the feelings of the Huo family. Doesn't this mean that we need to discuss the possibility of reconciliation?
Please tell me how this matter can be settled out of court. I owe you a favor."
Li Lianjie actually felt quite aggrieved about this matter. After all, it was Ye Ming who instigated the Huo family to go to the UK to sue him and the crew. So Ye Ming was the bad guy, right?
But under such a situation, Li Lianjie actually asked Ye Ming for this matter and owed Ye Ming a favor. Who do you think you are, the ancient county magistrate?
Eat the plaintiff and eat the defendant? But there is no way. There are some things where the situation is stronger than the person. There is nothing to say at all. For such a question, Ye Ming needs to speak up, otherwise the Huo family will definitely bite him to death.
Litigation.
Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "Let me reiterate, this matter has nothing to do with me. Of course, Lao Li, you came to the door in person. If you say that you don't give face at all, it will be hurtful.
Let's look at it this way. If you feel that it's not appropriate to file a lawsuit, just settle it out of court. Aren't they asking for eight million in compensation? Of course this is impossible. Even if the court makes a ruling, it's impossible for you to pay as much as you want.
Therefore, on a question like this, you give them the lowest tenth, and then publicly apologize, saying that it is an artistic creation that ignores the source of livelihood and fails to take into account the feelings of the descendants of the Huo family. Therefore,
, I feel very sorry. I will definitely pay attention next time and not make such a principled mistake.
Anyway, the Huo family has no intention of blackmailing you. They will definitely donate 800,000 pounds to an education fund.
If you think this matter can be done in this way, just go talk to the Huo family. I think there should be no problem. If you feel that you are not satisfied with such a result, then at such a time,
If you continue to go to the UK to litigate, it has nothing to do with me."
After Ye Ming's words, he clearly stated his position and the conditions of the Huo family. As for how Li Lianjie wanted to challenge him, such a thing had nothing to do with Ye Ming.
It just doesn't matter anymore.
Anyway, Ye Ming, you have already said it very clearly.
Li Lianjie pondered for a moment, eight hundred thousand pounds, which is similar to what the lawyer said.
The key is that there is a sensible person like Ye Ming behind the Huo family, and Ye Ming is a litigious maniac.
Even British lawyers have heard the name Ye Ming.
After all, there are not many people who dare to litigate with the White House and confront the White House head-on. Ye Ming is a rising star in this field.
Although this matter does not seem to have anything to do with Ye Ming, no one knows that there must be Ye Ming's shadow behind it.
Maybe, if Ye Ming finally sees that the situation is not good, he dares to roll up his sleeves himself and go into battle.
At that time, it will not be as simple as 800,000 pounds.
Therefore, in this situation, Li Lianjie thought about it, and finally the master said: "Okay, no problem, I can agree to this condition on behalf of the crew, but you have to choose the Huo family to settle out of court."
It would be very detrimental to us if a case like this stays in court for a day."
Ye Ming waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about this, you all admit your mistakes and pay compensation. If the Huo family refuses to let them go, I will not let them go.
In fact, all they want is an apology and restoration of the Huo family's reputation. As for money, maybe they thought of asking for a small sum at first, but now I can guarantee that they don't have the guts, even if the Huo family does.
Courage, no one in Thames would dare to do what Yang Zi did."
If you dare to do this, you will have to bear the anger of Ye Ming. Ye Ming's anger is not easy to bear.
Therefore, Ye Ming dares to guarantee on behalf of the Huo family that if Li Lianjie agrees to the Huo family's conditions on behalf of the crew and the producer, an out-of-court settlement can be completed in minutes.
At this time, Li Lianjie nodded and said, "Then the matter is settled as it is. I owe you a favor. If anything happens in the future, you can just speak up."
Jet Li's favor is something that ordinary people can't get.
Superstars like Li Lianjie cannot be hired just by having money. Of course, prodigal sons spending money are exceptions.
Under normal circumstances, the film salary may not be enough to hire Li Lianjie. Therefore, this favor is considered to be relatively large.
If there are any protagonists or even supporting roles in Ye Ming's movies that require Li Lianjie to perform, then Li Lianjie will not be able to refuse and must come.
This is the price of a favor. If you owe a favor, then on a problem like this, you must truly repay the favor.
You can hire Li Lianjie without too much remuneration, which is basically in line with Li Lianjie's worth. It's impossible to hire him without money. For a star of Li Lianjie's level, even if you use favors, you have to pay him.
A certain amount of remuneration, otherwise Ye Ming's work is not authentic.
Of course, if it is a movie like San Ye that the country needs, such as the founding of the country, this is an exception. Not to mention not giving money, even if it is a rebate, it will still be paid.
Please think highly of you. I haven’t seen how many stars in the entertainment industry want to be with them but have no chance.
Without certain connections, even if you offer money, you may not be able to get into Mr. Han’s eyes.
Anyway, this kind of favor is rare in the entertainment industry, and the more famous a star is, the more rare it is.
This time, Ye Ming can be said to have tricked Li Lianjie.
But Li Lianjie had no choice but to knock out his teeth and swallow them in his stomach.
After all, this time they are really unreasonable. They are not willing to apologize, and they still say that they are doing it for art or something. What kind of thing is this? They are bullying people.
I didn't expect to meet such a ruthless guy as Ye Ming, who would directly ask the Huo family to file an international lawsuit, and the result would be like this.
It can be said that this time the Fearless crew really accompanied the old lady and defeated her troops.
Don't think that the Fearless movie has already been released, and the Fearless crew doesn't need to care about the British verdict. Don't you dare give it a try? Do you still want to release the Fearless movie on disc or in European and American countries?
Make money in the long term by doing peripherals?
If you want to, just listen to the court. This is a key factor for Li Lianjie to stand up for reconciliation.
Otherwise, Li Lianjie is really shameless and unwilling to admit his mistakes, and no one can actually cause harm to him.
As for condemnation, are celebrities afraid of condemnation? Celebrities are the kind of beings who use their face as a bargaining chip. They have thick skin, strong backers, and good luck. As long as their acting skills are not terrible, it is generally not a big problem to become a front-line person. If their acting skills are good,
, superstardom is not impossible.
Anyway, that's the case. There are really not many people in the entertainment industry who are clean.
I dare not say there are none, but they are definitely a very small minority. Abandoning one's wife and involving a third party are trivial matters for people in the entertainment industry.
To people in the entertainment industry, you should never abandon a wife who is a wife of chaff. This is nonsense. Those who can truly help each other are not unavailable, but they are extremely precious.
Only a few artists with both virtue and skill can achieve this, basically not even one tenth.
Li Lianjie even dumped his first love and ended up finding a new one. Therefore, Ye Ming did not have any psychological burden for cheating Li Lianjie.
At this time, he nodded and said: "Then I will tell them later that we can discuss some things and try not to let foreigners laugh."
