The opening of China Entertainment Group gave Jay Chou a head-on confrontation

Jiang Wen also suffered the same fate.
At this point, the inside stories revealed in the behind-the-scenes footage are enough to make those big bosses waving checks keep an eye on this seemingly reckless but actually shrewd and smooth mainland actor.
"Mr. Jiang, we have a big project here..."
"Mr. Jiang, is that convenient..."
"Mr. Jiang..."
Jiang Wen has never felt so popular in his life. He is often invited to play the leading role in big productions, and the promises are more and more satisfactory. Of course, he knows why in his heart.
He had no doubt that once he agreed to take the role, his death in the script would be extremely tragic, and he would definitely be killed by the character played by Zhou Yi.
The entertainment industry is like this. Once a formula becomes popular, a large number of similar works with the same structure will immediately appear. And now, thanks to the only outstanding word-of-mouth performance during the National Day, he and Zhou Yi have completely become the wealth code in the hearts of that group of people.
His endings in these dramas could probably be summarized in a book called "On the Hundred Ways of Jiang Wen's Death".
"That's good. It just so happens that you don't have any movies to shoot right now."
Zhou Yi lowered his head and took a sip of Longjing tea, smiling like a weasel who stole a chicken: "It can also save you some funds for filming."
"I don't lack money for filming now."
Jiang Wen instinctively picked up the cigarette box on the table and wanted to shake out a cigarette, but then he realized that Zhou Yi in front of him didn't smoke. His hand was already on the cigarette box, but he restrained himself and tapped the cigarette box with his index finger: "In a way, you can be considered a middleman."
The wealthy Yang Shoucheng didn't care what he wanted to shoot, what he wanted to do, and didn't even care about the budget. Jiang Wen knew exactly why.
It takes money to make art.
He never refuses the money he deserves or the favors he deserves.
"If you really want to thank me for introducing you to a sucker, then give me some agency fees."
Zhou Yi put down his teacup and stretched lazily, then looked up at the new teahouse room in the imperial capital. The mountains and rivers were quite artistic.
"It's vulgar to talk about money. Why don't you play a cameo for me?"
"Get lost, don't even think about it, it's impossible in this lifetime."
Zhou Yi's "stress reaction" made Jiang Wen, who was making tea, laugh particularly loudly: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Someone asked me to ask you something. Is the news about China Film true or false?"
"Yang Shoucheng?"
Jiang Wen shook his head: "Another group of people, this will determine how they will treat you next."
Zhou Yi understood, and he fiddled with the edge of the teacup with his index finger, chuckled and said, "That's about right. Although I'm not an actor, I'm really optimistic about the future development prospects of the domestic film market. It just so happens that someone from China Film Group has offered me an olive branch, so I definitely want to get in and see for myself."
If you want to get involved in the world, power and background are important.
Not to mention that he will also develop in the country in the future.
"That's fine."
Jiang Wen got an answer without further questioning and drank the tea in the cup: "Your influence is getting bigger and bigger now, so you should pay more attention to yourself in the future. Oh, by the way, when will the new album be released?"
"You're still fucking pushing me for this?"
"I'm not urging them, I'm helping others to urge them. Remember to leave two autographs for me when the time comes."
"Get lost."
Zhou Yi raised his middle finger at him without hesitation: "I'll be the first one to choke you to death later."
"I haven't even bothered with you about this personal vendetta."
"Stop saying fuck all the time, be more fucking civilized."
"..."
....................................
In the huge conference room of the Imperial Capital Film Studio, Cheng Hao, who was attending the meeting as one of the co-investors, nodded slightly after listening to the plan proposed by Richard Fox, executive vice president of Warner Bros. Pictures. He did not say much, but just waited quietly for the opinions of Hengdian Group and China Film Group.
As the fourth party, she has a clear positioning of Guiyi, which she represents, and she is just there to help support the platform.
However, since it involved the film industry, it just happened to hit the nail on the head with her major, so she didn't necessarily fail to understand it.
“This plan has the potential to be feasible.”
Han Sanping, who had studied it long ago, made the final decision and decided to establish the first Sino-foreign joint venture film and entertainment company in China's history.
The company's name is also very simple. Its full name is China Film Warner Hengdian Guiyi Film and Television Co., Ltd., which is the sum of the company names of the four shareholders. It focuses on simplicity and clarity.
由于中影拉来的第四家归易同样有出资,三家话语权占比就从原定的4:3:3变更为了4:2:2:2。
The new company's main business will include investment, production, distribution and promotion of Chinese-language films and TV movies, bringing together outstanding directors, actors and producers from around the world to create first-class film and television works.
Yang Buting, Chairman of China Film Group Corporation, serves as Chairman, and Richard Fox, Executive Vice President of Warner Bros. Pictures, serves as Vice Chairman;
The general manager is Han Sanping, the current general manager of China Film Group. There are two deputy general managers, each responsible for a different area: Hu Min, the shareholder representative sent by Hengdian Group, and Cheng Hao, the shareholder representative sent by Guiyi.
If nothing unexpected happens, after the initial transition period, Han Sanping will be promoted, and Hu Min and Cheng Hao will also become vice presidents, each in charge of different affairs.
Although Hu Min, the representative of Hengdian Group, did not expect that it would be Gui Yi, who was engaged in Internet investment, who would weaken his voice and importance, he finally chose to agree due to his strong cash flow.
There is no way, the situation is here - everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones, and it is normal for Han Sanping to want to reduce the risk of betrayal and balance the situation.
After the company was established, Richard Fox, executive vice president of Warner Bros. Pictures, was in a good mood and deliberately teased Cheng Hao: "I didn't expect to cooperate with Spike in this way. Please take care of me in the future, Miss Cheng."
Thanks to the liberalization of the Chinese film market, Warner Bros. Pictures, backed by Time Warner, has been building a lot in China, with its cinema chain plans extending to five years later. The successful cooperation with China Film is a good start for him.
"Maybe this is fate."
Cheng Hao kept smiling. Her off-white suit was well-tailored. Her long hair tied behind her head added a touch of gentleness to her capable temperament. "Spike can't leave now, and he asked me to say hello to you..."
Richard Fox is very familiar with the Book of Changes.
He had heard of this man's name when Warner Music and Warner Pictures were still under Time Warner. When Zhou Yi first came to the United States, he also paid attention to the promotion of the soundtrack of "Rush Hour 2".
However, no one expected that Warner Records would be sold to its parent company later. Although the name of Warner Records was retained, the relationship between the two parties could never return to its previous state.
And knowing that Zhou Yi has set his sights on Warner Cinemas, Cheng Hao’s response was even simpler - the one who is close to the water gets the moon first.
Now that everyone is so familiar with each other, the cinema chain should not be given to outsiders. You can't write two Warners with one stroke. We were all one family five hundred years ago.
As for Hu Min, he was still observing Cheng Hao and simply exchanged contact information with him.
After all, they were future partners, and he still didn't know enough about Cheng Hao.
You know that this person is a NetEase shareholder and the general manager of Guiyi, and is known as the woman behind Zhouyi in the Internet investment circle. As Zhouyi's reputation and connections rise, she is regarded as an angel by countless Internet entrepreneurs who dream of changing their destiny.
Are you planning to go back to your old business by suddenly starting to make movies?
Considering Cheng Hao's connections with the Central Academy of Drama and the People's Art Theatre, Hu Min couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Although there is competition among the major art schools in the capital, as Cheng Hao has come to this point, the other schools can basically be regarded as her potential connections. "Congratulations."
"Congratulations."
"congratulations……"
After the confirmed news came out, Cheng Hao, who had just dealt with some congratulatory calls, stood by the office window of the Imperial Capital Film Studio, overlooking the place she had once longed for.
The initial office of China Film Warner Hengdian Guiyi Film and Television Co., Ltd. was built in this factory.
"If we hadn't bought the land and built the building yet, I would have suggested that they move their office space into our building and then collect rent after that."
Cheng Hao, who returned with the good news, saw Zhou Yi still writing and annotating the document plan, and smiled and told him about his own plan.
As the spokesperson for Zhou Yi, she has already chosen three plots of land, of which the last two are alternatives. The first one is a plot of land in Wudaokou, but it is still under negotiation and has not been acquired.
"You can think of it."
After finishing the last plan, Zhou Yi said lazily: "The land is not that simple. I think the price will have to be raised a little bit in the end."
"Repeat it?"
Cheng Hao frowned slightly when he heard this wording.
"Well, people are so smart these days, it's impossible not to bleed. But luckily I still have some dignity, so I didn't bleed a lot."
Sohu spent nearly 06 billion RMB to buy the Wudaokou site in 19. Its only advantage now is its reputation.
If you can save 100 million, it’s 100 million.
"In addition to the Guiyi Building, the relocation of Warner Records will also be on the agenda."
The Chinese people's innate desire to build up a house is about to break out.
With the expansion of Warner Records, the original building was definitely not enough - after all, it originally belonged to Wheatfield Music, and Warner moved directly into the building rented by Wheatfield after acquiring it.
Zhou Jianhui meant to find a new building to rent, but Zhou Yi still felt that he had to own his own building - so that he could make money from the building in the future.
Not to mention emulating the Warner Music headquarters in the United States, at least it shouldn't be too inferior to the Warner in the UK.
Warner (China) is now extremely wealthy and it does not need to be located in Wudaokou. It can also provide employment opportunities, so two buildings should be no problem, and more is not necessary.
"Why do I feel that buying land as you said is like buying cabbage?" Although I knew that Warner was rich, I didn't expect Cheng Hao to be so rich.
Singers still make money.
Oh no, it should be the singers who can earn dollars, pounds and euros who make money.
If he relied solely on the domestic record market, she was sure that no matter how hard Zhou Yi tried, he would not be able to buy the building unless he relied on capital injection from the head office.
"Have you ever seen billions of cabbages?"
"No, I haven't seen it. It's gone."
Cheng Hao smiled and said, "By the way, Yanzi has already written half of the new song for you. Don't rush her. If you rush her, her brain will get stuck and she won't be able to finish writing."
"?"
"That's what you said about her last time. She looks heartless and carefree, but she's actually very sensitive inside. Not everyone is like you when it comes to writing songs." Thinking of the scene where Sun Yanzi bit the tip of a pen and worked late into the night, Cheng Hao sighed.
She doesn't understand genius, but she does see the gap between humans and genius.
For Zhou Yi, writing songs is like drinking water; for Sun Yanzi, writing a song takes him half a month to come up with twenty-three words.
"I've never seen her write other songs so slowly before."
Sun Yanzi did not write only this one song, but writing "She Said" was extremely difficult.
"She doesn't want to be the one being attacked in your album. After all, this is the first time someone else's name appears in your album, so she is under a lot of psychological pressure."
Cheng Hao paused for a moment and curiously asked, "What is the theme of your new album? Is it too difficult to write?"
Logically speaking, Sun Yanzi is not some unknown person who has just entered the music scene, so her birth shouldn't be so difficult.
“The theme is love.”
"like?"
Cheng Hao's expression was subconsciously stunned, and he suddenly realized what Sun Yanzi meant when he said that the song he wrote was called "She Said".
"What kind of song is she writing that is so difficult to write?"
Now Zhou Yi was really curious.
"If nothing unexpected happens, it might be a love song?"
Cheng Hao's mood was a little complicated: "I just know the song is called "She Said"."
Love—she said.
She said love.
It’s hard not to overthink this.
When Zhou Yi heard the title of this song, his eyelids twitched——
"She Said": lyrics by Sun Yanzi, music by Lin Junjie.
If I remember correctly, this song is indeed the most popular song written by Sun Yanzi in his career, no doubt about it.
But, there is a problem -
If Cheng Hao can think of this problem, how could Sun Yanzi not think of it?
Or, she thought, would he not think of it?
She Said, or She Said?
Zhou Yi blinked and said nothing for a while.
"Yanzi takes this song very seriously. I think he probably doesn't want to disappoint you or become a stain on you."
Cheng Hao, who had no abnormality on his face, put his hand on his shoulder and said, "If you don't want to put so much pressure on her, I think you should explain it to her first."
"……Too."
Zhou Yi smiled without looking at her: "What about you? With so many burdens on your shoulders, don't you feel any psychological pressure?"
"I'm used to it. You've put a lot of pressure on me before."
Cheng Hao's voice is very light and soft.
