Li Lianjie didn’t believe a word of what Ye Ming said. Who in the entertainment industry doesn’t know that Ye Ming is the one who must repay his flaws? You said you wouldn’t let foreigners see the joke, but you still gave it to the Huo family.
Come up with the idea to go to England and file a lawsuit with us.
Moreover, the lawyer also said that the place chosen by Ye Ming is also very treacherous. Even in the United States, it is not impossible for this kind of reputation lawsuit to drag on for a year or two, and the plaintiff has the possibility of winning.
Not very big.
Unlike in the UK, this kind of reputational lawsuit is very unfavorable to the defendant in the UK, especially when the defendant is at a loss.
The sun never sets on the British Empire. Although it is now the second-in-command and cannot compete with Eagle Sauce, it is important to save face after all. British gentlemen regard face as very important. As long as their own interests are not harmed, this
The British actually value face very much.
Therefore, Li Lianjie had no choice but to give in, and settling out of court was a very good option.
At least if you choose to settle out of court, other people will stop laughing.
Therefore, news soon spread in the entertainment industry that the Fearless crew and the Huo family had reached an out-of-court settlement in the UK.
The crew of Fearless Fearless published an apology statement in major British media to apologize to the Huo family.
But why did the legal person choose to publish an apology statement in a British newspaper? In fact, it was because of the lawsuit in the UK. For this kind of thing, of course, an apology statement must be published in the UK.
Moreover, what's more, this kind of apology statement actually has a certain impact on the reputation of the Fearless crew.
It's embarrassing. Even if the court rules, it will be very shameless for Fearless's crew. If it were published in China, it would be even more embarrassing.
Therefore, by publishing an apology statement in a British newspaper, at least Chinese people rarely read British newspapers. This also alleviates the embarrassment of the Fearless crew to a certain extent.
Therefore, this apology statement must be published in the UK, which is also a condition put forward by the crew.
As for the Huo family, in fact, in a matter like this, what they want is to win the lawsuit. Although this time it was an out-of-court settlement, the out-of-court settlement was also an apology and payment by the Huo Yuanjia crew. They are considered members of the Huo family.
A clean victory was achieved.
Therefore, when it comes to a matter like this, more generally speaking, it means that the people of the Huo family have a good reputation.
As for where to apologize, it doesn't matter at all. The important thing is that domestic entertainment reporters must have reported that the Fearless crew will apologize.
This is enough for the Huo family. In fact, they did not expect the Huo Yuanjia crew to really lose money.
After the first instance verdict came out, the Huo family also consulted a lawyer. At this time, it was unlikely that they would win the lawsuit and require compensation.
This victory in the UK was unexpected.
The Huo family was compensated 20,000 pounds for lost work and 800,000 pounds for mental losses. This really surprised people in the entertainment industry. It really allowed the Huo family to win this victory.
But this is something that has never happened before in the Chinese entertainment industry.
Eight hundred and twenty thousand pounds, which is more than 10 million pounds in compensation. Of course, this is not a big deal in terms of the profit of Fearless's crew. In Fearless's movie, Li Lian alone
Jay's income is 30 million US dollars.
Therefore, it is more than one million US dollars, and Li Lianjie did not pay it alone. This matter really does not have much impact on Li Lianjie.
But on an issue like this, the Huo family is considered by everyone to be rich.
Therefore, the entertainment industry's coverage of this news can be said to be overwhelming. Even if the Huo family did not really return to the country at this time, the victory of this transnational lawsuit has already
It made headlines.
At this time, naturally very few reporters in China would go directly to the UK to interview the Huo family and Guo Degang, but they would go directly to Ye Ming to ask what the matter was like.
It can be done.
In fact, under normal circumstances, for celebrities like Li Lianjie and Ye Ming, even if they are relatively familiar reporters, it is not an easy task to find them.
After all, an international star of this level is not an ordinary elusive person.
Unless it is the promotion period of a work, it is generally not easy to find a star of this level.
Just like Li Lianjie, it is no longer the time for Li Lianjie to promote Fearless. Therefore, even if everyone wants to find Li Lianjie to interview about this issue, it is not an easy task.
.
In this case, it is relatively easy to find Ye Ming. In fact, if you wanted to find Ye Ming in the past, it was still more difficult than finding Li Lianjie.
But, at this time, didn't Ye Ming say that he had to do something? One was the big movie of the variety show "Running Brothers", and the other was Ode to Joy.
Both of these films were recently produced by Ye Ming, so it would be relatively easy to find these two crews. Anyway, Ye Ming is either on the crew of Ode to Joy or the crew of Brothers on the Run. Therefore, in
Under such a situation, it would be relatively easy to find Ye Ming.
As for Ye Ming, he didn't pay attention at all when he saw so many reporters. Now he wished that someone was paying attention to him.
Run Brother is a big movie that is easy to talk about. If there is CCTV as the background, then there is no need to worry about the hype for a movie like this. In China, as long as it has something to do with CCTV, if you want to hype it up, then
It's very easy.
However, the crew of Ode to Joy is not easy to hype. After all, these people are all newcomers. Even the more famous Empress Jiang Xin and Liu Tao, who is considered an old man in the entertainment industry, but in such a situation, as a
For a new TV series, its appeal is relatively limited.
Moreover, this is a TV series with a female protagonist, so if you want to say something like becoming an overnight sensation, it would be difficult.
After all, there are only a handful of classic TV series with female protagonists.
Therefore, despite Ye Ming's blessing, under such circumstances, it is not an easy task to really hype up Ode to Joy.
But this time many reporters came to visit, actually to interview Ye Ming. Ye Ming also knew very clearly why everyone came. The reporters asked a few questions. At the beginning, they were actually focused on the people of the Huo family and
Ye Ming also answered some of the situations on the Huo Yuanjia crew one by one.
Moreover, Ye Ming also said that if the Huo family can win in the UK, of course it will be victory rather than victory in the lawsuit. After all, everyone settled out of court.
This is actually to give the other party some face. Although Ye Ming thinks that victory is victory, it is really not good for foreigners to laugh in foreign countries. Therefore, it is a key reason for such a quick reconciliation.
Of course, he would not tell reporters this, but said that this was an exception. If Fearless had not been screened in the UK, it would not have been easy to fight such a lawsuit in the UK.
.
At this time, everyone guessed that it was really clear why the Huo family went to the UK to sue the Fearless crew in the UK, and after the case was filed in the UK, Li Lianjie flew over directly.
The purpose of meeting Ye Ming was actually to discuss the possibility of settling the case out of court.
As a result, everyone can see it. Not long after this, news came out that the Huo family and the Huo Yuanjia crew had settled out of court.
At this time, the Huo family in the UK were also relatively depressed.
In fact, they were relieved to win this lawsuit.
The crew of Fearless Fearless have also apologized. Therefore, no matter how you say it, at this time, they are already quite contented with such a matter.
But the compensation amount is 820,000 pounds. If converted into RMB, it would be more than 10 million.
For the people of the Huo family, this is indeed a large sum. How many people can see with their own eyes how much more than ten million is in their lifetime.
Except for a few people in banks and other departments, ordinary people may never have such an opportunity in their lifetime.
Money moves people's hearts, and there is nothing wrong with such a thing.
Therefore, in fact, this 820,000 pounds is quite tempting.
There are really many people in the Huo family who want to take it for themselves.
After all, it was money to compensate the Huo family. Therefore, from the perspective of the people on the shelves, the money should belong to the Huo family.
That's because these people simply don't know how powerful Ye Ming is, and think that winning the case is just their ability.
They never imagined what kind of harsh punishment they would face if they dared to take such a sum of money for themselves.
In fact, Huo Shan himself is also a little tempted. In Guo Degang's words, it is not shameful. If you are not tempted when facing so much money, you are either a fool or a saint.
Therefore, money and silk move people's hearts. This is a true portrayal of the current situation.
But at this time, accidents actually happened.
That is to say, the account opened by Huo Shan in the UK was actually entrusted to Pedro, a lawyer, to temporarily manage it on his behalf. Of course, the money must be transferred to the accounts of the Huo family.
Otherwise, even the British court would not agree.
But in the Huo family's account, there is indeed 820,000 pounds, and the real name is 820,000 pounds.
But in such a matter, there is still a problem, that is to say, in such a situation, in fact, the problem they really think about is the compensation for their own family.
Can't be used.
At this time, Huo Shan became a little curious. Why?
If you want to answer this question, you naturally turn to Guo Degang.
Guo Degang was in England accompanying a group of Huo family members in a lawsuit. After all, they were fellow villagers, and Lao Guo was still very loyal at this time.
Upon hearing Huo Shan's question, Guo Degang did not hide it, but asked directly: "Master Huo, actually, such a thing was arranged by our boss.
Think about it, 800,000 pounds, converted into our Chinese money, is more than 10 million. Could it be that you, Mr. Huo, are not tempted by this money?
Even if you, Gao Liangliang, are not tempted, can you guarantee that the rest of the Huo family will not be tempted?
Moreover, I also heard some gossips from the Huo family, thinking that the money was to compensate the Huo family, and it should be the Huo family who decided what to do with it.
There are already people in your family who want to talk about feelings, right? What kind of person our boss is, you should be aware of this kind of thing.
If you offend our boss, you will definitely be retaliated against, am I right about this?"
Huo Shan could only nod helplessly. On this point, what Guo Degang said was not wrong at all. The Huo family was indeed tempted by the money. In fact, even he himself was tempted. When he was drinking last night, he seemed
What do you think about the money?
Lao Guo seemed to be enlightening him at that time.
It’s just that after he sobered up, Huo Shan knew very well what kind of person Ye Ming was. He was a person who must report his flaws. He was very famous in the entertainment industry, and he was a real kung fu person.
Once such a person is offended, it will be a big trouble.
Therefore, after Huoshan woke up, he did not think about how to keep the money for himself.
But his family couldn't touch the money, so of course he wanted to ask clearly what this kind of thing was like.
I didn't expect Guo Degang to answer like this.
Therefore, Huo Shan actually had no choice but to say: "The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, and we, the Huo family, are the same. There will always be some unworthy descendants.
But don’t worry, Mr. Guo, I said I would donate money to establish an education fund, so I definitely mean what I say.
In other words, the Huo Yuanjia Education Fund also helped our ancestors of the Huo family become famous, right?"
Guo Degang nodded and said, "Come on, Mr. Huo, you are a sensible person, but can you guarantee that everyone in your family is a sensible person?"
Therefore, our boss has also said that this kind of thing should be nipped in the bud, and we should not use more than 10 million to test people's hearts.
At this time, the human heart is least able to withstand the test of money.
Therefore, when it comes to a problem like this, it is a good choice to directly let the lawyer temporarily control the money."
