How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 439: The benefits of being a public figure and enjoying super social resources
"Mr. Han, I understand, it's just a pity." Seeing that Han Sanpin was so nervous, Zhang Nan couldn't say anything else and could only follow Han Sanpin's words.

Han Sanpin also breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Zhang Nan's words. Then he was afraid that he would make mistakes if he said too much, so he quickly found an excuse and slipped away from Zhang Nan.

Then no one came to Zhang Nan's side until Zhou Jie appeared.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" debuted in Hollywood with a global box office of 3.2 million U.S. dollars. Later, under Zhang Nan's arrangement, he took over "Sky Sign" directed by Indian director Asan with a global box office of 4.08 million U.S. dollars, and also starred in a movie A movie in the Zhang Nan [Martial Arts] spin-off series.

Zhou Jie's start was much better than Wu Jin's.

Because Wu Jin is basically limited to the field of action movies and cannot play other roles.

However, Zhou Jie relied on the box office success of the spin-off films "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Signs of Heaven" and "Martial Arts Hall". In its early days, it could be said that both action films and dramas flourished in Hollywood.

But maybe it’s the old saying, right!

Master of everything, but master of nothing.

In terms of feature films, Zhou Jie's Asian identity puts him at an insurmountable gap compared with European and American actors in Hollywood.

As for action movies, Zhou Jie, who was still focused on dramas, couldn't put all his energy into it, so it was inferior to Wu Jin.

Therefore, there has been less and less movement in Zhou Jie in recent years.

Of course.

As an artist signed by Zhang Nan, and backed by the big tree of Longbow Film and Television, Zhou Jie still has no shortage of film contracts, but there are not many leading roles, and most of them are supporting roles.

If Zhou Jie really worked hard to make movies, he would earn no less than Wu Jin in a year, or even much more.

Because drama films are different from action films. Action films are still difficult to shoot in order to pursue visual effects, but drama films only require reading the lines.

"Director Zhang." Zhou Jie said hello to Zhang Nan respectfully.

Zhang Nan nodded in agreement, and then asked in a somewhat surprised tone: "Why did you suddenly return to the mainland? There are no film appointments in Hollywood?"

"No, I have a film appointment, but..."

Zhou Jie shook his head repeatedly to deny it, and then he seemed to have made up his mind and said, "It's just Director Zhang. I feel that I may not be suitable for acting, but more suitable for business. A few years ago, I contracted a piece of land in my hometown, and my income over the years has been Also came up, so..."

Zhou Jie didn't finish his last words, but Zhang Nan also heard that he wanted to withdraw from the circle!
but……

Zhou Jie of the original time and space quit the industry because he was slandered by Lin Ziwei's tongue kiss and could no longer engage in acting work, so he quit the industry to start a business.

Of course, Zhou Jie is indeed a bit talented in business. In just a few years after the original world retired, he was worth over [-] million yuan.

"Ah Jie! I have my own thoughts, and I won't forcefully interfere. The contract we signed has already expired and cannot be terminated. But I have gained some insights after working together, and I still want to tell you. ."

"The fact that you are able to make it this far in the film and television industry is due to the support of company resources, but it is also due to your personal talent. So if you really want to count, you are talented in the entertainment industry, and you can break into Hollywood. Talent does not count. Low."

"Of course, I'm not saying that you don't have talent in business. Seeing how confidently you mentioned your business achievements to me today, you probably have a lot of talent in this area."

"But sometimes, we still have to consider the rarity of different talents."

"From a large level, the mainland currently has no shortage of one or two business talents, but it lacks artists who can have international influence. From a personal level, the money that business can bring is far from the The basics of the interpretation path can also be obtained, and the interpretation path can also receive additional fame and huge influence on public opinion, which is difficult to have in business, unless you have reached the level of Li Ka-shing in business."

"Let's put it this way, Ah Jie, do you think I'm still short of money now?" Zhang Nan asked Zhou Jie with some foreshadowing.

Zhou Jie shook his head violently after hearing this.

The entertainment industry is originally a place where wealth is concentrated. If Zhang Nan, as a leader in the global entertainment industry, is short of money, then no one will be short of money.

"Then do you think I'm missing my name now?" Zhang Nan continued to ask.

Zhou Jie continued to shake his head violently.The reason is the same as before. If Zhang Nan, who is at the top of the global entertainment industry, is not famous, then there is no shortage of famous people in the world, probably the heads of various regions.

"Then why do you think I still put so much effort into making movies every year?" Zhang Nan asked, directly detonating the previous foreshadowing.

Zhou Jie was confused.

Yes!

Having reached the point where Zhang Nan is, even if he quits the industry now, he will not be short of money or fame.

After seeing Zhou Jie's confusion, Zhang Nan did not show off and explained directly:
"I'm not going to tell you fancy truths, I'm just going to tell you some simple facts.

As long as I am still making movies, then I will be the number one superstar in the world. But if I fade out of the entertainment industry, then I will become one of the many rich and famous people in the world. The importance and influence between the two You should understand the difference! "

Zhang Nan didn't know if Zhou Jie understood it, but Zhang Nan knew that many artists in the mainland entertainment industry didn't quite understand it.

This is a fact seen from the development context of the entertainment industry in the original time and space.

For example, some well-known artists have slowly begun to develop in the direction of capital.

It’s not that Zhang Nan thinks this change is wrong. After all, actors will grow old and their abilities will decline. People also consider their quality of life in the future.

But Zhang Nan just feels that after you turn into a capital, you shouldn't completely give up your identity on stage.

It’s not for anything else, it’s just because it’s not worth it!
To put it simply, there is no shortage of capital in the Mainland. One more person is not too much, and one person less than you is not a lot. However, being a public figure in the Mainland is not just a matter of money.

To put it more seriously, a multi-millionaire or billionaire was kidnapped, that is, kidnapped.

It is something that happens frequently and normally.

Even if it is voted out, it is just a logical tragedy and will not have much impact on public opinion.

Maybe if this person’s process of making a fortune was not very clean, some people would still applaud him.

But if a popular public figure is kidnapped, then you can see how much of a stir there will be in public opinion.

He was a not-so-famous second-tier star in the original time and space, but the kidnapping of a national first-class actor eventually caused a stir and the police system took it seriously. Later, a movie "Saving Mr. My Life" was made.

This is just a lesser-known second-tier star.

If it were a popular star, public opinion probably wouldn't know what would happen.

If someone in Zhang Nan's position were kidnapped, not to mention the country, even North America and the United Nations would have to say nothing.

Could you try changing to another profession and identity?

Let alone keeping silent, people don't even want to hear what's going on.

It can be said that with an additional level of public figure status, one can enjoy more and more superior social service resources.

Finally, Zhang Nan gave Zhang Nan one last piece of advice.

"The most important thing is that the company does not force you to take up the role. If you like to do business, there is no need to quit the company, just go into business. The company will not stop you, but once you quit the company, if you want to join again If so, the share-sharing contract will have to be rewritten all over again.”

After saying this, Zhang Nan didn't speak anymore, because what needed to be said had been said, and the rest had to be seen by Zhou Jie's thinking.

Moreover, Zhang Nan didn't insist on keeping Zhou Jie, he just said this for Zhou Jie's consideration.
