I am a director, but I have the skills of an actor
Chapter 160 Qingshan Media Company ([-]-word chapter)
Chapter 160 Qingshan Media Company ([-]-word chapter)
"Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry. I couldn't leave the crew during filming. I'm really sorry."
As soon as Zhang Zhao came in, Wan Qingshan stood up and said apologetically.
Some time ago, Zhang Zhao called Wan Qingshan and told him that he had left Enlight Pictures!
Zhang Zhao didn't say what he meant later, but Wan Qingshan also understood that he was asking him about cooperating to start a company.
But at that time, Wan Qingshan was learning to shoot war scenes with Zhang Yimou, so he could only let Zhang Zhao wait!
"It's okay, Director Wan. It's only been ten days, so I just have a rest. In the past few years, I have been worrying about Enlight Pictures and never had a break. Now it's rare for me to have time to relax." Zhang Zhao replied cheerfully. Said, sitting down.
Then, the two chatted while ordering food.
When the meal was almost finished, Zhang Zhao started to talk about business!
"Director Wan, let's start as a villain first and then a gentleman. Let's first establish the shares that are most likely to cause disagreement between us, and then talk about other things. What do you think?"
Wan Qingshan nodded and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhang, my thoughts are the same as yours. It will be smoother to open up the discussion first and confirm the shares before discussing other matters!"
"Okay, Director Wan, I know you are straight-tempered, and I won't beat around the bush. I'll just say it straight away. I want 15% of the shares!"
When talking about shares, Zhang Zhao gives people a very strong feeling, as if if you don't give me 15%, then I won't cooperate with you.
Wan Qingshan doesn't really think that if he doesn't agree to Zhang Zhao's request for 15% of the shares, Zhang Zhao will really not cooperate with him.
If Zhang Zhao had simply stopped cooperating with him, he would not have been poached by him in the first place and left Enlight Pictures.
This is just Zhang Zhao's way of negotiating, just like the aggressive way he used to negotiate with Fan Bayi about Fanfan Company's shares.
"Mr. Zhang, if you don't beat around the bush, I'll just tell you that 15% is impossible. After the company develops, it will definitely have to give out a part of its shares as equity incentives. If you take 15%, then it will be difficult for me to give out the shares." It’s an equity incentive.”
Zhang Zhao frowned and immediately shook his head, "The equity incentive will not exceed 10% at most. Even if Wan Dao takes out another 10%, you will still have 75% of the shares, and you will still be the largest shareholder."
"Mr. Zhang, what I hear you mean is that because I have a larger share, I can freely use 10% as equity incentive!"
Zhang Zhao was about to speak, but Wan Qingshan did not give Zhang Zhao a chance to speak and continued,
"Mr. Zhang, I disagree with you. In my opinion, just because I have a larger share, I can just take out shares as equity incentives."
Then, Wan Qingshan's expression changed slightly and he said very forcefully,
"Based on the risks of starting a company, to put it bluntly, Mr. Zhang, you don't have enough funds. I estimate that Mr. Zhang, you can come up with 200 million at most.
If you take out 200 million, it will account for 15%, and I will take out more than 1000 million according to the proportion.
The total amount of funds is more than 1000 million. How to develop the company depends on this more than 1000 million. If the company wants to develop, it will have to wait for the year of the monkey and the horse.
After all, I will definitely need to advance the company's early development funds.I took a lot of extra financial risks, and I held the vast majority of the shares. Isn’t it normal?
It is normal for me to hold the vast majority of the shares, so it does not mean that I have too many shares, so I can use the shares as equity incentives at will!
To be blunt, I contributed tens of millions plus the upfront advance.
The 200 million you offered, Mr. Zhang, actually means nothing to me.In this case, Mr. Zhang, you still need to occupy 15%.
It's better that I just give you 5% of the shares, Mr. Zhang, and you can help me control and develop the company. You don't have to take any risks. I'll take care of all the risks alone. "
Zhang Zhao frowned, and after a moment of silence, he said with some frustration, "Director Wan, how much do you think I should take?"
"8%, Mr. Zhang, you occupy 8%. Mr. Zhang, you don't need to take care of the equity incentive shares, and you don't have to calculate how many shares you should give to make money. I am responsible for all of this."
Zhang Zhao shook his head suddenly and said with some excitement, "No way, 8% is too low. It's better to just give me 5% and let me take charge of the company, just like Director Wan said."
Wan Qingshan's eyes lit up and he immediately answered, "Okay, Mr. Zhang, if you are willing, I will give you 5% of the shares and you will help me develop the company."
Wan Qingshan actually wanted to cooperate with Zhang Zhao in this way.
He really looked down upon Zhang Zhao for offering such a small amount of money.
If Zhang Zhao hadn't called him before and revealed that he wanted to pay for the shares, Wan Qingshan wouldn't have wanted to talk so much with Zhang Zhao.
Wan Qingshan's words made Zhang Zhao stunned for a moment, and then he said excitedly,
"Wan Dao, Wan Dao, I just said it quickly. I don't want to cooperate in this way. I still contribute capital and hold shares.
If you insist on giving me 5% of the shares, ask me to take charge of the company.Then I can only say sorry, we can't cooperate! "
Zhang Zhao's excessive reaction left Wan Qingshan a little confused. Isn't it normal to give away shares and hire someone to take charge of the company to develop the company?What's wrong with Zhang Zhao, why is he so excited?
Also, he never said that he would insist on cooperation in the form of giving away shares!
Wan Qingshan was at a loss, but he still hurriedly persuaded, "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang, don't get excited now. Shouldn't we talk about it again?"
Zhang Zhao took a deep breath, drank a sip of tea, calmed down, and said,
"Director Wan, I'm sorry to make you laugh. But I will never agree to that way of cooperation. I just said it out of anger before, and I said it without even thinking about it."
"Mr. Zhang, it's nothing. I can understand why you are angry!
Since Mr. Zhang doesn’t want to cooperate in that way, then we should cooperate with Mr. Zhang by paying for the shares. "
Seeing Wan Qingshan say this, Zhang Zhao felt relieved.
What Wan Qingshan didn't know was that Zhang Zhao now hated the cooperation method of giving him shares and asking him to develop the company.
At the beginning of Enlight Pictures, Wang Changtian gave him some shares and asked him to develop Enlight Pictures.
Because the shares were given away, it was hard to explain his previous refusal to Wang Changtian to merge Enlight Pictures into Enlight Media.
That’s why he’s so responsive to this kind of cooperation now!
That's why he was so anxious that he forgot that Wan Qingshan didn't insist on giving him shares and asking him to take control of the company. Wan Qingshan just continued what he said and said so according to the trend!
After Zhang Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, he hesitated and said, "Director Wan, 8% is impossible. It's too low. At least 13%."
Wan Qingshan's eyes were filled with joy. Zhang Zhao took the initiative to give in, so the initiative in this negotiation was in his hands.
"13% is impossible. Mr. Zhang, you have to understand that the financial risk I bear is huge!"
Then, the two of them clicked one point at a time, even 0.5 points at the end, and bargained back and forth.
About half an hour later, the two finally reached an agreement, with Zhang Zhao accounting for 10.5%!
With this deal settled, Zhang Zhao, who had almost become anxious with Wan Qingshan for 0.5% of the shares just now, breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, when the two of them were talking about shares, Wan Qingshan kept using money to pressure Zhang Zhao. Basically every three sentences, he said, Mr. Zhang, your 200 million is of no use to me. any sense.
Using money to pressure people is very crude but also very effective. Who knows that Zhang Zhao doesn't have that much money? His shares in Enlight Pictures were not sold to Wang Changtian. The funds he can now provide are just as Wan Qingshan estimated. Just over 200 million.
In addition, Zhang Zhao took the initiative to retreat before, which made Wanqingshan stronger. This resulted in Zhang Zhao being at a disadvantage everywhere. When it came to the end, Zhang Zhao was almost anxious.
After Zhang Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, he calmed down and said with a solemn expression, "Director Wan, once the shares are negotiated, the rest will be easy to discuss. But before that, there is something else I want to make clear to you! "
"Huh? Mr. Zhang, tell me!"
"Director Wan, the new company, I hope it will eventually develop into an independent listing. I don't want things like Enlight Pictures to happen, and I don't want the new company to be merged into it because of the listing of Qing Film Company or Qingshan Cinemas in the future."
Wan Qingshan said with a relaxed smile, "Mr. Zhang, you are worried about this! You can rest assured that I will not be like Mr. Wang, who ignores the development of other companies just for the sake of the company's listing."
Besides, Qingshan Film and Television Company is just a leather company, and I have neither the inclination nor the ability to turn it into a listed company.
As for Qingshan Cinema Line, in my plan, it will not be listed for at least six or seven years.
[-]. After going public in seven years, Qingshan Cinema Line will definitely develop to a stable stage, and there will be no need to merge with other companies to stabilize the stock price. "
Then Wan Qingshan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhang, with your ability, I think that under your leadership, the new company will definitely be listed earlier than Qingshan Cinema Line!"
Confirmed that something like Enlight Pictures would not happen, Zhang Zhao suddenly smiled with joy.
"Director Wan, you've said so, so I have to work harder to develop the company as soon as possible, and strive to achieve what you said and go public earlier than Qingshan Cinema!" Zhang Zhao said with a confident smile.
It was confirmed that the new company would not be merged into other companies in the future. When discussing other matters, most of Zhang Zhao had no objections and listened to Wan Qingshan's words!
After about half an hour, after discussing the general matters of the new company - Qingshan Media Company, Wan Qingshan changed the subject,
"Mr. Zhang, after signing the contract tomorrow, I have to rush to film, and I will leave all the company's affairs to you."
"Don't worry, Director Wan, I will take care of it, just concentrate on filming!" Zhang Zhao said confidently.
Wan Qingshan smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, with your ability, I believe you will be able to develop the company well, but there are some things that I'm afraid you may have overlooked temporarily, so I have to tell you in advance."
Zhang Zhao immediately put away his smile and looked directly at Wan Qingshan. He was very curious about what Wan Qingshan wanted to say, and he was negligent.
"Mr. Zhang, the first thing I want to tell you is that after the company is opened, the first thing it does is to purchase the film and television adaptation rights of the novel.
Mr. Zhang, look, most of Feng Xiaogang’s movies are adapted from novels.This is not only because there is a lack of big screenwriters in the industry, but also because the novel has passed the test of the book market, and the risk of adapting it into a film and television drama will be much smaller than the risk of filming a new script.
Mr. Zhang, as long as you observe carefully, you will find that many movie and TV series scripts in recent years are adapted from popular novels.
Especially in recent years, most of the popular TV series are adapted from popular novels.
Therefore, winning the film and television adaptation rights of popular novels, or the film and television adaptation rights of Mr. Zhang's novels that you think have film and television value, will be of great help to the company's early development.
With the change of film and television rights, we have a script, which is equivalent to having a project in hand.
You can either cooperate with other companies or form your own crew, so any company can take the lead.
This is much better than looking for connections, looking for connections, and cooperating with other companies, without any control and can only invest money. "
Zhang Zhao, who had already agreed with Wan Qingshan halfway through his words before, praised with admiration,
"Director Wan, you still have the foresight. If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have thought about it.
What I thought before was exactly the same as what Director Wan said later. I would use my previous relationships and connections to find other film and television companies to cooperate with. "
"Haha, I don't think I have farsightedness. It's just because I'm a director and I care about the script and discover the current situation in the industry."
Suddenly, Wan Qingshan thought of something, instantly suppressed his smile and continued,
"Mr. Zhang, some novels have grand scenes. Don't worry about not being able to film them, so don't buy the rights to adapt them for film and television.
It can’t be photographed now, but as technology develops in the future, it will definitely be possible.It’s just that you have to pay attention to the lifespan of the film and television adaptation rights. The sooner, the better.
Also, buying film and television adaptation rights is not limited to novels from publishers, but also online novels. As long as the online novel is popular, or Mr. Zhang thinks it has film and television value, you can buy the film and television adaptation rights. "
Wan Qingshan had wanted to hoard the film and television adaptation rights of the novel.
It's just that he didn't remember when those novels came out. It took him a long time to find a copy of "Zhu Xian".
And it was impossible for him to keep an eye on this aspect, so before opening the company, he had already thought about it and handed it over to Zhang Zhao, who would buy the film and television adaptation rights of the novel in large quantities.
He bought all the popular novels, and coupled with Zhang Zhao's vision, he believed that even Zhang Zhao would be wrong about some novels.
But you can also buy most of the film and television adaptation rights of the original novels that will become popular in the future.
Being able to buy most of them is enough!Even if he keeps staring at it, he will probably miss a lot. After all, he doesn’t know what the original novels of every popular film and television drama will be called in the future!
Zhang Zhao, who was still frowning at first, suddenly frowned when he heard Wan Qingshan's words!
"Wan Dao, we have talked before and we all agree that the Internet and electronic products are developing rapidly and changing with each passing day.
So you said that you are not afraid of grand scenes, but you also want to buy the film and television adaptation rights. I can understand this.
But you said that buying the film and television adaptation rights of online novels is a bit inappropriate, right?
I have also learned a little bit about online novels. They are all meaningless and very empty novels. How can such novels be worthy of film and television adaptations? "
Wan Qingshan looked at Zhang Zhao in surprise. With Zhang Zhao's eyes, how could he say such a thing!
Is it because Zhang Zhao is too old to see the value of film and television adaptations of online novels?
Seeing this, Zhang Zhao asked doubtfully, "Director Wan, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with what I said?"
Wan Qingshan came back to his senses, and after his thoughts flew for a moment, he asked, "Mr. Zhang, do you think the idol dramas that have become popular in South Korea and Taiwan in the past few years, and then followed by the mainland, are hollow?"
Zhang Zhao said without thinking, "It's so empty, I can't stand it!"
Then, Zhang Zhao paused and continued, "Director Wan, I understand what you mean. You think that if these idol dramas can become popular, then TV series adapted from popular online novels can also become popular.
Director Wan, let’s not talk about whether the TV series adapted from the online novel will become popular. After all, no one can be sure whether the ratings will be good or not before it is filmed and released.
Let’s just say that this kind of online novel can be written by just a few young screenwriters.
Why should we spend this unjust money to buy the film and television adaptation rights, and then we will have to find a screenwriter to adapt it. "
"Mr. Zhang, this goes back to what I said before. There is little risk in adapting novels that have been tested by the market into TV series.
Mr. Zhang, as long as you pay a little attention, you will find that the number of people reading online novels is increasing dramatically every year, and novels that can be popular among a large number of online novels naturally have their own reasons for being popular.
Also, compared to adapting novels published by publishing houses into film and television dramas, the risk of adapting such online novels into film and television dramas will be lower. "
Seeing Zhang Zhao's expression of surprise, Wan Qingshan continued with a smile,
"Mr. Zhang, maybe because you have been in charge of Enlight Pictures before, you only focused on the film industry and didn't pay much attention to the TV drama industry. You don't know much about many things.
Listen to my analysis. Look, there are already many versions of Cha Liangyong's martial arts novels in film and television series.
However, in the mainland TV drama circle, in recent years, they have continued to remake "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "Dragon", and almost all of Cha Liangyong's martial arts novels.
There are also several versions of Wen Rui'i's "The Four Famous Catchers", and the mainland TV drama circle is also remaking it!
The ratings of these remakes of TV series are not low!What's this?
In my opinion, this is because this kind of famous martial arts novel has its own fans. After it is remade into a TV series and aired, these fans will still read it regardless of whether they have seen other versions before.
The same goes for popular online novels, which have a large number of fans.
In a few years, when more people read online novels, there will also be more fans of these popular online novels.
When the time comes, these popular online novels will be made into TV series, just like the current TV series that remake Cha Liangyong and his martial arts novels. A large number of book fans will watch it, and the ratings will be guaranteed! "
Zhang Zhao frowned and was silent for a while, then said, "Director Wan, maybe my thinking is different from that of young people because of my age. I disagree with you.
However, I can’t find any logic to overturn what you just said, so if you say to buy the film and television adaptation rights of online novels, I will do it.
But I am older and my vision is different from that of young people. I may not be able to see that those online novels have the value of film and television adaptation.
I think that after the company is established, it will set up a department to find a group of young people and let them dig out online novels with film and television value. "
Wan Qingshan's eyes suddenly lit up. Although Zhang Zhao could not see the film and television value of online novels due to his age, his decision-making ability really amazed him.
"Mr. Zhang, I fully support the establishment of this kind of department."
Just as he finished speaking, Wan Qingshan thought of another thing and continued quickly, "By the way, Mr. Zhang, this department should not only recruit men, but also women.
There are many romantic novels written specifically for girls on the Internet, which are also of great film and television value. These novels are basically the same as idol dramas and are very popular among girls. "
Zhang Zhao nodded slightly and said, "Director Wan, don't worry about this, I will pay attention to it."
Wan Qingshan nodded, "Mr. Zhang, now that we've finished talking about this, there's one more thing I have to talk to you about, which is the online broadcast rights for movies and TV series!"
Suddenly, Zhang Zhao's expression became strange. He was surprised, confused, and even more smiling!
"Mr. Zhang, the online broadcast rights of film and television dramas are worthless now. There are a lot of pirated copies on the Internet. This is because the Internet is a new industry, and the higher-ups do not care about it and allow it to develop rapidly.
But after it develops to a certain stage, the above will definitely strictly control it, just like the trading industry that was just reformed back then.
When the above controls are implemented, the online broadcast rights of film and television dramas will become very valuable.
Mr. Zhang, look, didn’t Ku6, pps audio and video, and several video playback platforms appear one after another last year?
These video playback platforms are developing very rapidly. I think there will definitely be many companies with such video playback platforms in the future.
When the authorities take control, they will not be able to produce pirated movies and TV series and play them on video playback platforms. In order to stabilize users and grab users, they will have to buy the copyrights of movies and TV series.
At that time, the film and television network broadcast rights we control can be sold for a sky-high price! "
When Wan Qingshan's momentum of pointing the country stopped, Zhang Zhao couldn't bear it anymore and said with a smile on his face,
"Director Wan, I understand everything you said, and I also agree with what you said, Director Wan, that the rights to broadcast on film and television networks will be very valuable in the future. Director Wan, your words made me understand. When the accounts were initially divided, why did you, Director Wan, have to negotiate with Enlight? The film company purchased the online broadcast rights for the other half of "Loyal Liver and Righteous Brave".
But Wan Dao, don’t you know?
Your girlfriend, Ms. Chen Yumo, went on a shopping spree in the industry three months ago to buy online broadcast rights for movies and TV series. She almost bought all the online broadcast rights for popular movies and TV series in the past few years.
I even sent people to Enlight Pictures to buy the online broadcast rights of "Loyal Liver and Righteous Brave"! "Wan Qingshan's expression suddenly froze, and then he said very awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang, I didn't know she was buying the online broadcast rights of film and television dramas, which made you laugh! "
Zhang Zhao suppressed his laughter and replied, "Haha, it's okay. Director Wan, this is nothing. This is nothing."
Wan Qingshan felt even more embarrassed when he saw this, and then he immediately changed the topic.
"Mr. Zhang, since she has bought the online broadcast rights of the film and television drama, forget it. I have nothing else to say. I just hope that Mr. Zhang, on your side, will pay attention to purchasing the film and television adaptation rights of the novel. Well, that’s a top priority for the new company.”
"Director Wan, don't worry, I will take care of it."
Wan Qingshan nodded and didn't give any more instructions. With Zhang Zhao's ability, he believed he could handle it well.
Then when he picked up the tea cup and drank tea, he suddenly remembered a little thing. After drinking the tea, he said,
"By the way, Mr. Zhang, whether the new company cooperates with other companies or forms its own crew, in terms of resources, I hope you can lean towards Fan Bayi and Zeng Li as much as possible.
I have shares in Fanfan Company started by Fan Bayi, as you also know, Mr. Zhang.I have also negotiated with Zeng Li. She will open a studio under the banner of Qingshan Film and Television Company. "
"That's no problem, Director Wan. We just talked about it. The new company will not develop artist business. It will only be responsible for film and television investment and production. Of course, if there are resources, they will be provided to Miss Fan and Miss Zeng."
After Zhang Zhao readily agreed, he looked hesitant and lowered his voice slightly and said,
"Director Wan, it's no big deal if you're just playing for fun. Compared to other directors and stars in the industry, you're pretty good.
But you must not have real feelings. If you do, you will be easily affected by the pillow trend. When it affects you, it will naturally affect the company.
Miss Zeng Li, although I don't have much contact with her, I know that she doesn't have that much thought.I'm not worried about you having real feelings for her.
This is Miss Fan. She is very utilitarian and will do anything for resources!
If you have true feelings for her, she will definitely blow your pillows on you often. Then, it will be troublesome!
Director Wan, I, Zhang Zhao, am not a person who gossips behind people’s backs, and I don’t want to cause any estrangement in our relationship because of my words.
But I am just worried that you will be affected by them in the development of the company, so I cannot tell you this. "
Halfway through Zhang Zhao's words, Wan Qingshan wanted to interrupt and refute.
But I thought it would be better to let Zhang Zhao finish speaking, so as not to appear rude.
As soon as Zhang Zhao finished speaking, Wan Qingshan immediately said, "Mr. Zhang, don't you believe the gossip reported by the news media?
I answered the reporter’s interview, but they deliberately didn’t report it in order to gain popularity for the news. "
Zhang Zhao raised his eyebrows and said solemnly, "Director Wan, since you said that, there are some things I have to say openly. If there are some offensive words, I hope you can understand. I don't want it to be because of your personal feelings. , ultimately affecting the company’s development.”
Zhang Zhao's expression surprised Wan Qingshan, "Uh, Mr. Zhang, please let go and say, I have nothing to be taboo about!"
Zhang Zhao picked up the tea cup and poured tea for himself and Wan Qingshan, and said,
"Well, Director Wan, I'll tell you straight. I've been in the industry for many years, and I'm familiar with people in the press. I know they deliberately didn't report what you said next.
But Wan Dao, have you ever thought about why the news about you, Zeng Li, and Fan Bayi spread so widely and became so popular? "
Wan Qingshan thought as he replied, "I think it's probably because the three of us are popular, and because "Loyal Liver and Righteousness" was a big hit in the United States at that time, everyone's eyes were on us!"
After pouring the tea, Zhang Zhao put down the teapot and shook his head slightly, "Director Wan, that's not the reason. Wang Fei and Xie Tingfeng were both the most popular stars back then. The news that spread before they fell in love was not as popular as your news. wide.
The reason is that you are so good to Zeng Li and Fan Bayi, so good that even I have to believe that you have that kind of relationship with them.
Everyone in my circle believes it, not to mention the public, they will definitely think that the scandal is true.
They wanted to have fun, to see Miss Chen Yumo's reaction when she found out, and even more to see if Zeng Li would quarrel with Fan Bayi, so the news spread widely. "
Wan Qingshan was stunned for a moment and retorted, "I just have a normal cooperative relationship with them, and I don't treat them well!"
Zhang Zhao was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Wan Qingshan could open his eyes and tell lies.
"Director Wan, if you are not nice to them, then there is no such thing as being nice to others in that circle!
After Fan Bayi and you co-founded the company, she starred in "The Golden Armor", and you, who has never taken on external roles, were actually one of the leading actors.
Then in your new film with Zhang Jin, Fan Bayi is the female lead again.
Director Wan, you told the media that Jiang Zhiqiang invited Fan Bayi to star. Jiang Zhiqiang also answered the reporter directly, saying that he invited Fan Bayi to star.
But we are not fools. After Fan Bayi started a company with you, she starred in two big movies produced by big directors, and you were in them. If you weren't helping her from behind, who would believe it?
You're even more so kind to Zeng Li, Director Wan, I know you've known her for many years, and you've known her since you were in school.
But your girlfriend is from the Performance Department of Nortel, and Director Wan, you often go to the Performance Department to take classes. You should be very familiar with the people in the Performance Department.
But unfortunately, she starred in two of your movies, and she was almost praised as an international actress.
What about your classmates from the acting department?You praise Yu Bo alone, and you are a man!
Forget about movie roles, it’s normal for Director Wan to praise your confidante.
But Director Wan, for the sake of Zeng Li, actually sent "Loyalty and Loyalty" to the college film festival with which you have a grudge.
Director Wan, don’t mention sending “Loyalty and Loyalty” to the College Student Film Festival. You want to win awards and get honors.
If you wanted to win an award, you should have submitted "The True Meaning of Love" to the competition.
Although "The True Meaning of Love" is not as good as "The True Meaning of Love" at the box office, it is the first commercial film starring all mainland actors with a box office of over [-] million. In this sense, "The True Meaning of Love" has a higher chance of winning than "The True Meaning of Love". Loyalty to the Liver and Righteousness to the Brave" is much bigger!
To put it bluntly, if it weren’t for the purpose of promoting Zeng Li to the position of best actress, Director Wan, you would definitely not go to the College Student Film Festival.
Director Wan, if you pull yourself away and look at it as a bystander, do you think your kindness to Zeng Li is a bit outrageous? "
The fact that Tang Jianli presided over the meeting was only spread within a small area, and Zhang Zhao did not have a good relationship. In addition, Zhang Zhao had already told Wang Changtian that he was leaving, and Wang Changtian also knew that Zhang Zhao was going to Wanqing Mountain, so Wang Changtian Changtian didn't tell Zhang Zhao about Tang Jianli's hosting of the meeting, so Zhang Zhao didn't know the inside story at all.
After Wan Qingshan's incident at the College Student Film Festival was put down by the higher authorities, people in the industry were wondering why Wan Qingshan would bring "Loyal Liver and Righteousness" to the College Student Film Festival given the grudge between Wan Qingshan and the College Student Film Festival!
After thinking about it, I can only think that Wan Qingshan went to the College Student Film Festival because of Zeng Li.
Given the subject matter of "Loyal Liver and Righteous Bravery", it is impossible for Zeng Li to win the award at the Shanghai International Film Festival!
There is no hope for the Huabiao Award or the Hundred Flowers Award given Zeng Li's qualifications.
Although the value of the University Student Film Festival Award is lower than that of the Huabiao Award and the Hundred Flowers Award, it is still higher than that of other film festival awards.
And at the College Student Film Festival, there is a Most Popular Actress Award.
This award is not difficult to implement for Wan Qingshan, and it is also the most suitable for Zeng Li.Because Zeng Li won this award, no one would say that Zeng Li's acting skills were not good enough.
That's why Wan Qingshan put aside his grudges and took "Loyal Liver and Righteousness" to participate in the College Student Film Festival!
Some people are even thinking that Wan Qingshan was upset at the College Student Film Festival because Zeng Li didn't win the award. If Zeng Li won the Most Popular Actress Award, then Wan Qingshan would definitely not be upset!
Everyone in the industry believes this statement!
Wan Qingshan wanted to refute Zhang Zhao. He did not go to the Student Film Festival for Zeng Li. He just wanted to see that the University Student Film Festival was unwilling to give him an award, but he had to give him the award. He wanted to vomit what he had received at the University Student Film Festival. gas.
But Tang Jianli told him at the beginning not to spread the word about winning the award!
He vaguely told Zeng Li a little bit before, because he saw Zeng Li leaving the scene with him and didn't want to lie to her.As for Fan Bayi, she was smart and guessed a little bit.
But it was impossible for him to tell Zhang Zhao inside information, so he couldn't refute Zhang Zhao's statement about going to the university film festival, but he had something to refute what Zhang Zhao said before!
But when Wan Qingshan wanted to speak, Zhang Zhao started praising him again.
"Of course, Zeng Li also has affection for you, Director Wan, and she deserves to be so kind to you, Director Wan.
At the College Student Film Festival, she dared to take the lead and leave with you. For this reason, I admire her very much.
Zeng Li has real feelings for you, Director Wan, so I’m not worried that she will blow off the pillow and affect the company!
Director Wan, do you know what other people in the industry say about you and Zeng Li? "
"Uh-huh, what should I say?" Wan Qingshan asked curiously.
Zhang Zhao picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then put down the teacup and said with a smile, "Haha, they say you and Zeng Li are the same Zhang Yimou and Gong Li back then!"
"Well! This is too exaggerated! You actually compare me and Zeng Li with Director Zhang and Gong Li!
Mr. Zhang, whether you believe it or not, I will explain it to you so that you won’t worry too much.
Zeng Li and I are just friends.When she acted in "The True Meaning of Love," I can say that I had selfish motives.
But it was just because she was my friend, so even though she was not very suitable for the role of Zuo Zhi, I gave her the role.
But in the later movie "Loyalty and Righteousness", she was very suitable for the role of Mai Xinxin, so I invited her! "
Then, Wan Qingshan thought it was a bit funny and said with a smile, "As for Fan Bayi, the two movies she starred in in succession were all my fault, but I didn't force her into it.
In order to invite me to star in "The Golden Armor", Zhang Weiping gave me a supporting actress role.
The female lead in my new film was chosen because I gave suggestions to the script that Jiang Zhiqiang submitted, and then I used the favor of giving suggestions to the script to cast a female lead from Jiang Zhiqiang.
My company has no artists, so of course I gave the role to Fan Bayi.
After all, she is more popular and makes more money, so I can share more.I gave her these two roles purely from a business perspective."
Zhang Zhao only believed a little of Wan Qingshan's explanation of his relationship with Fan Bayi. After all, Wan Qingshan's explanation was too coincidental.
Otherwise, Fan Bayi's reputation was not good. Everyone in the circle knew that Fan Bayi would do anything for resources in the past, and Wan Qingshan was not a pervert, so Zhang Zhao didn't believe it at all.
Zhang Zhao didn't believe Wan Qingshan's explanation of the relationship between Zeng Li and Wan Qingshan at all, because Wan Qingshan didn't explain why he went to the College Student Film Festival.
"Director Wan, I believe what you said, but I still hope you won't affect the company because of your pillow style!"
Wan Qingshan rolled his eyes in his heart. Zhang Zhao said he believed it, but he was worried that he would be affected by the pillow wind, which meant that he didn't believe it at all.
But it’s not surprising that he couldn’t explain why he went to the College Student Film Festival.
Since he couldn't explain it, Wan Qingshan stopped explaining. He sighed in his heart and said helplessly,
"Mr. Zhang, don't worry, this won't happen. Although I'm not a very strong-willed person, I'm not to the point where my influence on my company will be affected."
Zhang Zhao believed this. Judging from past cooperation experience, Wan Qingshan was very determined in some matters and would not retreat even a step.
He just mentioned specifically asking Wan Qingshan to pay attention to pillow wind, just in case.
"Director Wan, I just wanted to give you a heads up. I have no other intention. I hope you won't take it too seriously."
"No, Mr. Zhang, you are also worried about the company, I can understand that!"
After saying this, Wan Qingshan and Zhang Zhao stopped talking about other serious matters. Then, they casually chatted for a while and left Beauty Jiangnan.
After watching Zhang Zhao get into the car, Wan Qingshan got in the car and asked Duan Tong to drive home. Then he took out his mobile phone and called Chen Yumo.
After the call was connected, Chen Yumo's voice spread through the phone,
'Such a request must not be agreed to. The time for repayment is too long. Who knows what the other company will be like in one or two years. You continue to negotiate with the other party and the time for repayment is within three months.
If you can't negotiate, just say that your company's business has been busy recently and orders have been overwhelming for several months. In order not to delay your company's business, we can't cooperate for the time being! '
'I know Mr. Chen! 'A man's voice sounded.
Wan Qingshan couldn't help but glance at his phone before shouting, "Hey, Yumo!"
'You go down first! '
'Yes, Mr. Chen! '
Then came Chen Yumo's very clear voice on the phone, "What's wrong? What's the matter?"
Wan Qingshan sighed in his heart. He and Chen Yumo were not married yet, but since the Chinese New Year this year, they have become more and more like an old couple when talking on the phone. They are casual and direct, without any relationship between lovers. sweet conversation!
"Yu Mo, I want to ask you, how did you start buying the rights to broadcast movies and TV series online?
Aren't you concentrating on studying with your uncle now and waiting to take over in the future?Why, you still want to bring the Chen Group into the film and television industry! "
"That's it, hehe, I have no intention of leading the Chen Group into the film and television industry, I just want to make some money.
I started buying online broadcast rights for movies and TV series the year before last.
At that time, didn’t you say that film and television network broadcast rights would be very valuable in the future?
Later during the National Day, I made a special trip home and asked my dad for his opinion. My dad agreed with your statement.
So I asked my dad for a few million, sent people to Hong Kong Island, and bought a large number of online broadcast rights for movies and TV series.
I originally wanted to buy one from the Mainland, but last year the company wanted to develop, and my dad couldn’t spare the funds for me to buy it, so I stopped.
Some time ago, the company's financial pressure eased, so I asked my dad to give me money, and I continued to buy the online broadcast rights for mainland movies and TV series. "
Chen Yumo's words reminded Wan Qingshan that when he was filming "The True Meaning of Love", Chen Yumo originally said he would not go home during the National Day, but later he suddenly went home!
Wan Qingshan thought for a while and asked, "Yu Mo, how many online broadcast rights for movies and TV series do you have now?"
"I didn't understand this carefully. Well, there seem to be hundreds, almost a thousand. Most of them are Hong Kong film and television dramas. What's wrong?"
"That can,,,"
As soon as he said these three words, Wan Qingshan realized that this was unrealistic!
Chen Yumo asked on the phone, "What can I do?"
"It's nothing, I just thought wrong for a moment.
By the way, Yumo, I have something else I want to tell you. The previous scandal between me and Zeng Li and Fan Bayi was all made up by reporters. They didn’t even report what I said next. "
When Fan Bayi and Wan Qingshan were photographed in South Beauty, causing a scandal, Wan Qingshan immediately called Chen Yumo to explain.
But even without his explanation, Chen Yumo didn't believe it at all!
So when it was rumored that he had an affair with Fan Bayi and Zeng Li, he didn't expect to explain it to Chen Yumo.
But after Zhang Zhao's words, he realized that the scandal between him and Zeng Li was too easy to believe.
Then he thought that when "Loyal Liver, Righteous and Brave" went to Shenzhen for a road show, Chen Yumo deliberately held his hand and kept it in Zeng Li's sight.
Wan Qingshan realized that there was no need to explain the scandal between him and Fan Bayi, but he and Zeng Li had to explain it to Chen Yumo!
After waiting for a few seconds, Chen Yumo's laughter came from the phone,
"Hey, it's been half a month since the news came out. We've talked on the phone more than ten times in the meantime, but you haven't given me a single explanation. Even when I was interviewed by a reporter, you just asked me if I had ever been made trouble by a reporter. .
Why now, you want to explain to me again, your reflex arc is so long! "
Wan Qingshan's thoughts quickly turned around and he replied, "Didn't I have a scandal with Fan Bayi before? When I explained it to you, you didn't believe it at all.
So after this scandal came out, I believed you would still believe me, so I didn’t explain it to you.
It's just that when I was talking to others, I realized that the scandal between me and Zeng Li was a bit outrageous, so I thought of explaining it to you! "
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yumo's voice came from the phone!
"Wan Qingshan, it's because now that you don't believe that I will believe you, you are trying to explain to me!"
At this point, Wan Qingshan might have been a little anxious if there hadn't been a slight 'puff' of laughter in his cell phone because he couldn't hold back his laughter.
"Yu Mo, stop making trouble and be serious."
"What do you mean I'm making trouble? Did I say something wrong? Isn't it because you're explaining to me now that you don't believe that I will believe you?"
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, please stop making trouble."
Suddenly, Chen Yumo's tone became normal, "Okay, I won't joke with you anymore. I have to have a meeting later, so I can't talk to you any more. I'm hanging up!"
"Yeah, hang up!"
After hanging up the phone, Wan Qingshan held the phone and sighed in his heart, "I'm still short of money!"
When he just heard Chen Yumo say that he had the online broadcast rights for nearly a thousand movies and TV series, Wan Qingshan came up with the idea of starting a video broadcast platform company.
But after saying three words to Chen Yumo, Wan Qingshan thought that he couldn't afford the video playback platform.
Before Kuaibo was overthrown, opening a video playback platform was a waste of money, and it was a waste of money.
After Kuaibo failed, it had to burn money to compete with Youku and others, and it was impossible to make a profit in a short period of time.
In the early days of the theater chain industry, it was a gold-eating beast. Then there was a bigger gold-eating beast than the theater chain - the video playback platform. No matter how fast it made money, it could not afford it.
After a while, Wan Qingshan returned to the alley where his home was. Without entering the house, he went directly to Yan Dong's house to spend the night.
He has been on the set of "A City of Golden Armor" since the College Student Film Festival, and Chen Yumo never came to live in it. Needless to say, his home must be full of dust now.
He was too lazy to clean up, because he had to fly to the Magic City tomorrow, and he could only stay for one day after cleaning up. Then he would have to clean up again when he came back from the Magic City.
The next morning, Wan Qingshan and Zhang Zhao signed the contract for the shares of Qingshan Media Company. After going to the bank to transfer 500 million, he took Duan Tong and two bodyguards on a flight to Shanghai.
(End of this chapter)
"Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry. I couldn't leave the crew during filming. I'm really sorry."
As soon as Zhang Zhao came in, Wan Qingshan stood up and said apologetically.
Some time ago, Zhang Zhao called Wan Qingshan and told him that he had left Enlight Pictures!
Zhang Zhao didn't say what he meant later, but Wan Qingshan also understood that he was asking him about cooperating to start a company.
But at that time, Wan Qingshan was learning to shoot war scenes with Zhang Yimou, so he could only let Zhang Zhao wait!
"It's okay, Director Wan. It's only been ten days, so I just have a rest. In the past few years, I have been worrying about Enlight Pictures and never had a break. Now it's rare for me to have time to relax." Zhang Zhao replied cheerfully. Said, sitting down.
Then, the two chatted while ordering food.
When the meal was almost finished, Zhang Zhao started to talk about business!
"Director Wan, let's start as a villain first and then a gentleman. Let's first establish the shares that are most likely to cause disagreement between us, and then talk about other things. What do you think?"
Wan Qingshan nodded and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhang, my thoughts are the same as yours. It will be smoother to open up the discussion first and confirm the shares before discussing other matters!"
"Okay, Director Wan, I know you are straight-tempered, and I won't beat around the bush. I'll just say it straight away. I want 15% of the shares!"
When talking about shares, Zhang Zhao gives people a very strong feeling, as if if you don't give me 15%, then I won't cooperate with you.
Wan Qingshan doesn't really think that if he doesn't agree to Zhang Zhao's request for 15% of the shares, Zhang Zhao will really not cooperate with him.
If Zhang Zhao had simply stopped cooperating with him, he would not have been poached by him in the first place and left Enlight Pictures.
This is just Zhang Zhao's way of negotiating, just like the aggressive way he used to negotiate with Fan Bayi about Fanfan Company's shares.
"Mr. Zhang, if you don't beat around the bush, I'll just tell you that 15% is impossible. After the company develops, it will definitely have to give out a part of its shares as equity incentives. If you take 15%, then it will be difficult for me to give out the shares." It’s an equity incentive.”
Zhang Zhao frowned and immediately shook his head, "The equity incentive will not exceed 10% at most. Even if Wan Dao takes out another 10%, you will still have 75% of the shares, and you will still be the largest shareholder."
"Mr. Zhang, what I hear you mean is that because I have a larger share, I can freely use 10% as equity incentive!"
Zhang Zhao was about to speak, but Wan Qingshan did not give Zhang Zhao a chance to speak and continued,
"Mr. Zhang, I disagree with you. In my opinion, just because I have a larger share, I can just take out shares as equity incentives."
Then, Wan Qingshan's expression changed slightly and he said very forcefully,
"Based on the risks of starting a company, to put it bluntly, Mr. Zhang, you don't have enough funds. I estimate that Mr. Zhang, you can come up with 200 million at most.
If you take out 200 million, it will account for 15%, and I will take out more than 1000 million according to the proportion.
The total amount of funds is more than 1000 million. How to develop the company depends on this more than 1000 million. If the company wants to develop, it will have to wait for the year of the monkey and the horse.
After all, I will definitely need to advance the company's early development funds.I took a lot of extra financial risks, and I held the vast majority of the shares. Isn’t it normal?
It is normal for me to hold the vast majority of the shares, so it does not mean that I have too many shares, so I can use the shares as equity incentives at will!
To be blunt, I contributed tens of millions plus the upfront advance.
The 200 million you offered, Mr. Zhang, actually means nothing to me.In this case, Mr. Zhang, you still need to occupy 15%.
It's better that I just give you 5% of the shares, Mr. Zhang, and you can help me control and develop the company. You don't have to take any risks. I'll take care of all the risks alone. "
Zhang Zhao frowned, and after a moment of silence, he said with some frustration, "Director Wan, how much do you think I should take?"
"8%, Mr. Zhang, you occupy 8%. Mr. Zhang, you don't need to take care of the equity incentive shares, and you don't have to calculate how many shares you should give to make money. I am responsible for all of this."
Zhang Zhao shook his head suddenly and said with some excitement, "No way, 8% is too low. It's better to just give me 5% and let me take charge of the company, just like Director Wan said."
Wan Qingshan's eyes lit up and he immediately answered, "Okay, Mr. Zhang, if you are willing, I will give you 5% of the shares and you will help me develop the company."
Wan Qingshan actually wanted to cooperate with Zhang Zhao in this way.
He really looked down upon Zhang Zhao for offering such a small amount of money.
If Zhang Zhao hadn't called him before and revealed that he wanted to pay for the shares, Wan Qingshan wouldn't have wanted to talk so much with Zhang Zhao.
Wan Qingshan's words made Zhang Zhao stunned for a moment, and then he said excitedly,
"Wan Dao, Wan Dao, I just said it quickly. I don't want to cooperate in this way. I still contribute capital and hold shares.
If you insist on giving me 5% of the shares, ask me to take charge of the company.Then I can only say sorry, we can't cooperate! "
Zhang Zhao's excessive reaction left Wan Qingshan a little confused. Isn't it normal to give away shares and hire someone to take charge of the company to develop the company?What's wrong with Zhang Zhao, why is he so excited?
Also, he never said that he would insist on cooperation in the form of giving away shares!
Wan Qingshan was at a loss, but he still hurriedly persuaded, "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang, don't get excited now. Shouldn't we talk about it again?"
Zhang Zhao took a deep breath, drank a sip of tea, calmed down, and said,
"Director Wan, I'm sorry to make you laugh. But I will never agree to that way of cooperation. I just said it out of anger before, and I said it without even thinking about it."
"Mr. Zhang, it's nothing. I can understand why you are angry!
Since Mr. Zhang doesn’t want to cooperate in that way, then we should cooperate with Mr. Zhang by paying for the shares. "
Seeing Wan Qingshan say this, Zhang Zhao felt relieved.
What Wan Qingshan didn't know was that Zhang Zhao now hated the cooperation method of giving him shares and asking him to develop the company.
At the beginning of Enlight Pictures, Wang Changtian gave him some shares and asked him to develop Enlight Pictures.
Because the shares were given away, it was hard to explain his previous refusal to Wang Changtian to merge Enlight Pictures into Enlight Media.
That’s why he’s so responsive to this kind of cooperation now!
That's why he was so anxious that he forgot that Wan Qingshan didn't insist on giving him shares and asking him to take control of the company. Wan Qingshan just continued what he said and said so according to the trend!
After Zhang Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, he hesitated and said, "Director Wan, 8% is impossible. It's too low. At least 13%."
Wan Qingshan's eyes were filled with joy. Zhang Zhao took the initiative to give in, so the initiative in this negotiation was in his hands.
"13% is impossible. Mr. Zhang, you have to understand that the financial risk I bear is huge!"
Then, the two of them clicked one point at a time, even 0.5 points at the end, and bargained back and forth.
About half an hour later, the two finally reached an agreement, with Zhang Zhao accounting for 10.5%!
With this deal settled, Zhang Zhao, who had almost become anxious with Wan Qingshan for 0.5% of the shares just now, breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, when the two of them were talking about shares, Wan Qingshan kept using money to pressure Zhang Zhao. Basically every three sentences, he said, Mr. Zhang, your 200 million is of no use to me. any sense.
Using money to pressure people is very crude but also very effective. Who knows that Zhang Zhao doesn't have that much money? His shares in Enlight Pictures were not sold to Wang Changtian. The funds he can now provide are just as Wan Qingshan estimated. Just over 200 million.
In addition, Zhang Zhao took the initiative to retreat before, which made Wanqingshan stronger. This resulted in Zhang Zhao being at a disadvantage everywhere. When it came to the end, Zhang Zhao was almost anxious.
After Zhang Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, he calmed down and said with a solemn expression, "Director Wan, once the shares are negotiated, the rest will be easy to discuss. But before that, there is something else I want to make clear to you! "
"Huh? Mr. Zhang, tell me!"
"Director Wan, the new company, I hope it will eventually develop into an independent listing. I don't want things like Enlight Pictures to happen, and I don't want the new company to be merged into it because of the listing of Qing Film Company or Qingshan Cinemas in the future."
Wan Qingshan said with a relaxed smile, "Mr. Zhang, you are worried about this! You can rest assured that I will not be like Mr. Wang, who ignores the development of other companies just for the sake of the company's listing."
Besides, Qingshan Film and Television Company is just a leather company, and I have neither the inclination nor the ability to turn it into a listed company.
As for Qingshan Cinema Line, in my plan, it will not be listed for at least six or seven years.
[-]. After going public in seven years, Qingshan Cinema Line will definitely develop to a stable stage, and there will be no need to merge with other companies to stabilize the stock price. "
Then Wan Qingshan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhang, with your ability, I think that under your leadership, the new company will definitely be listed earlier than Qingshan Cinema Line!"
Confirmed that something like Enlight Pictures would not happen, Zhang Zhao suddenly smiled with joy.
"Director Wan, you've said so, so I have to work harder to develop the company as soon as possible, and strive to achieve what you said and go public earlier than Qingshan Cinema!" Zhang Zhao said with a confident smile.
It was confirmed that the new company would not be merged into other companies in the future. When discussing other matters, most of Zhang Zhao had no objections and listened to Wan Qingshan's words!
After about half an hour, after discussing the general matters of the new company - Qingshan Media Company, Wan Qingshan changed the subject,
"Mr. Zhang, after signing the contract tomorrow, I have to rush to film, and I will leave all the company's affairs to you."
"Don't worry, Director Wan, I will take care of it, just concentrate on filming!" Zhang Zhao said confidently.
Wan Qingshan smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, with your ability, I believe you will be able to develop the company well, but there are some things that I'm afraid you may have overlooked temporarily, so I have to tell you in advance."
Zhang Zhao immediately put away his smile and looked directly at Wan Qingshan. He was very curious about what Wan Qingshan wanted to say, and he was negligent.
"Mr. Zhang, the first thing I want to tell you is that after the company is opened, the first thing it does is to purchase the film and television adaptation rights of the novel.
Mr. Zhang, look, most of Feng Xiaogang’s movies are adapted from novels.This is not only because there is a lack of big screenwriters in the industry, but also because the novel has passed the test of the book market, and the risk of adapting it into a film and television drama will be much smaller than the risk of filming a new script.
Mr. Zhang, as long as you observe carefully, you will find that many movie and TV series scripts in recent years are adapted from popular novels.
Especially in recent years, most of the popular TV series are adapted from popular novels.
Therefore, winning the film and television adaptation rights of popular novels, or the film and television adaptation rights of Mr. Zhang's novels that you think have film and television value, will be of great help to the company's early development.
With the change of film and television rights, we have a script, which is equivalent to having a project in hand.
You can either cooperate with other companies or form your own crew, so any company can take the lead.
This is much better than looking for connections, looking for connections, and cooperating with other companies, without any control and can only invest money. "
Zhang Zhao, who had already agreed with Wan Qingshan halfway through his words before, praised with admiration,
"Director Wan, you still have the foresight. If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have thought about it.
What I thought before was exactly the same as what Director Wan said later. I would use my previous relationships and connections to find other film and television companies to cooperate with. "
"Haha, I don't think I have farsightedness. It's just because I'm a director and I care about the script and discover the current situation in the industry."
Suddenly, Wan Qingshan thought of something, instantly suppressed his smile and continued,
"Mr. Zhang, some novels have grand scenes. Don't worry about not being able to film them, so don't buy the rights to adapt them for film and television.
It can’t be photographed now, but as technology develops in the future, it will definitely be possible.It’s just that you have to pay attention to the lifespan of the film and television adaptation rights. The sooner, the better.
Also, buying film and television adaptation rights is not limited to novels from publishers, but also online novels. As long as the online novel is popular, or Mr. Zhang thinks it has film and television value, you can buy the film and television adaptation rights. "
Wan Qingshan had wanted to hoard the film and television adaptation rights of the novel.
It's just that he didn't remember when those novels came out. It took him a long time to find a copy of "Zhu Xian".
And it was impossible for him to keep an eye on this aspect, so before opening the company, he had already thought about it and handed it over to Zhang Zhao, who would buy the film and television adaptation rights of the novel in large quantities.
He bought all the popular novels, and coupled with Zhang Zhao's vision, he believed that even Zhang Zhao would be wrong about some novels.
But you can also buy most of the film and television adaptation rights of the original novels that will become popular in the future.
Being able to buy most of them is enough!Even if he keeps staring at it, he will probably miss a lot. After all, he doesn’t know what the original novels of every popular film and television drama will be called in the future!
Zhang Zhao, who was still frowning at first, suddenly frowned when he heard Wan Qingshan's words!
"Wan Dao, we have talked before and we all agree that the Internet and electronic products are developing rapidly and changing with each passing day.
So you said that you are not afraid of grand scenes, but you also want to buy the film and television adaptation rights. I can understand this.
But you said that buying the film and television adaptation rights of online novels is a bit inappropriate, right?
I have also learned a little bit about online novels. They are all meaningless and very empty novels. How can such novels be worthy of film and television adaptations? "
Wan Qingshan looked at Zhang Zhao in surprise. With Zhang Zhao's eyes, how could he say such a thing!
Is it because Zhang Zhao is too old to see the value of film and television adaptations of online novels?
Seeing this, Zhang Zhao asked doubtfully, "Director Wan, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with what I said?"
Wan Qingshan came back to his senses, and after his thoughts flew for a moment, he asked, "Mr. Zhang, do you think the idol dramas that have become popular in South Korea and Taiwan in the past few years, and then followed by the mainland, are hollow?"
Zhang Zhao said without thinking, "It's so empty, I can't stand it!"
Then, Zhang Zhao paused and continued, "Director Wan, I understand what you mean. You think that if these idol dramas can become popular, then TV series adapted from popular online novels can also become popular.
Director Wan, let’s not talk about whether the TV series adapted from the online novel will become popular. After all, no one can be sure whether the ratings will be good or not before it is filmed and released.
Let’s just say that this kind of online novel can be written by just a few young screenwriters.
Why should we spend this unjust money to buy the film and television adaptation rights, and then we will have to find a screenwriter to adapt it. "
"Mr. Zhang, this goes back to what I said before. There is little risk in adapting novels that have been tested by the market into TV series.
Mr. Zhang, as long as you pay a little attention, you will find that the number of people reading online novels is increasing dramatically every year, and novels that can be popular among a large number of online novels naturally have their own reasons for being popular.
Also, compared to adapting novels published by publishing houses into film and television dramas, the risk of adapting such online novels into film and television dramas will be lower. "
Seeing Zhang Zhao's expression of surprise, Wan Qingshan continued with a smile,
"Mr. Zhang, maybe because you have been in charge of Enlight Pictures before, you only focused on the film industry and didn't pay much attention to the TV drama industry. You don't know much about many things.
Listen to my analysis. Look, there are already many versions of Cha Liangyong's martial arts novels in film and television series.
However, in the mainland TV drama circle, in recent years, they have continued to remake "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "Dragon", and almost all of Cha Liangyong's martial arts novels.
There are also several versions of Wen Rui'i's "The Four Famous Catchers", and the mainland TV drama circle is also remaking it!
The ratings of these remakes of TV series are not low!What's this?
In my opinion, this is because this kind of famous martial arts novel has its own fans. After it is remade into a TV series and aired, these fans will still read it regardless of whether they have seen other versions before.
The same goes for popular online novels, which have a large number of fans.
In a few years, when more people read online novels, there will also be more fans of these popular online novels.
When the time comes, these popular online novels will be made into TV series, just like the current TV series that remake Cha Liangyong and his martial arts novels. A large number of book fans will watch it, and the ratings will be guaranteed! "
Zhang Zhao frowned and was silent for a while, then said, "Director Wan, maybe my thinking is different from that of young people because of my age. I disagree with you.
However, I can’t find any logic to overturn what you just said, so if you say to buy the film and television adaptation rights of online novels, I will do it.
But I am older and my vision is different from that of young people. I may not be able to see that those online novels have the value of film and television adaptation.
I think that after the company is established, it will set up a department to find a group of young people and let them dig out online novels with film and television value. "
Wan Qingshan's eyes suddenly lit up. Although Zhang Zhao could not see the film and television value of online novels due to his age, his decision-making ability really amazed him.
"Mr. Zhang, I fully support the establishment of this kind of department."
Just as he finished speaking, Wan Qingshan thought of another thing and continued quickly, "By the way, Mr. Zhang, this department should not only recruit men, but also women.
There are many romantic novels written specifically for girls on the Internet, which are also of great film and television value. These novels are basically the same as idol dramas and are very popular among girls. "
Zhang Zhao nodded slightly and said, "Director Wan, don't worry about this, I will pay attention to it."
Wan Qingshan nodded, "Mr. Zhang, now that we've finished talking about this, there's one more thing I have to talk to you about, which is the online broadcast rights for movies and TV series!"
Suddenly, Zhang Zhao's expression became strange. He was surprised, confused, and even more smiling!
"Mr. Zhang, the online broadcast rights of film and television dramas are worthless now. There are a lot of pirated copies on the Internet. This is because the Internet is a new industry, and the higher-ups do not care about it and allow it to develop rapidly.
But after it develops to a certain stage, the above will definitely strictly control it, just like the trading industry that was just reformed back then.
When the above controls are implemented, the online broadcast rights of film and television dramas will become very valuable.
Mr. Zhang, look, didn’t Ku6, pps audio and video, and several video playback platforms appear one after another last year?
These video playback platforms are developing very rapidly. I think there will definitely be many companies with such video playback platforms in the future.
When the authorities take control, they will not be able to produce pirated movies and TV series and play them on video playback platforms. In order to stabilize users and grab users, they will have to buy the copyrights of movies and TV series.
At that time, the film and television network broadcast rights we control can be sold for a sky-high price! "
When Wan Qingshan's momentum of pointing the country stopped, Zhang Zhao couldn't bear it anymore and said with a smile on his face,
"Director Wan, I understand everything you said, and I also agree with what you said, Director Wan, that the rights to broadcast on film and television networks will be very valuable in the future. Director Wan, your words made me understand. When the accounts were initially divided, why did you, Director Wan, have to negotiate with Enlight? The film company purchased the online broadcast rights for the other half of "Loyal Liver and Righteous Brave".
But Wan Dao, don’t you know?
Your girlfriend, Ms. Chen Yumo, went on a shopping spree in the industry three months ago to buy online broadcast rights for movies and TV series. She almost bought all the online broadcast rights for popular movies and TV series in the past few years.
I even sent people to Enlight Pictures to buy the online broadcast rights of "Loyal Liver and Righteous Brave"! "Wan Qingshan's expression suddenly froze, and then he said very awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang, I didn't know she was buying the online broadcast rights of film and television dramas, which made you laugh! "
Zhang Zhao suppressed his laughter and replied, "Haha, it's okay. Director Wan, this is nothing. This is nothing."
Wan Qingshan felt even more embarrassed when he saw this, and then he immediately changed the topic.
"Mr. Zhang, since she has bought the online broadcast rights of the film and television drama, forget it. I have nothing else to say. I just hope that Mr. Zhang, on your side, will pay attention to purchasing the film and television adaptation rights of the novel. Well, that’s a top priority for the new company.”
"Director Wan, don't worry, I will take care of it."
Wan Qingshan nodded and didn't give any more instructions. With Zhang Zhao's ability, he believed he could handle it well.
Then when he picked up the tea cup and drank tea, he suddenly remembered a little thing. After drinking the tea, he said,
"By the way, Mr. Zhang, whether the new company cooperates with other companies or forms its own crew, in terms of resources, I hope you can lean towards Fan Bayi and Zeng Li as much as possible.
I have shares in Fanfan Company started by Fan Bayi, as you also know, Mr. Zhang.I have also negotiated with Zeng Li. She will open a studio under the banner of Qingshan Film and Television Company. "
"That's no problem, Director Wan. We just talked about it. The new company will not develop artist business. It will only be responsible for film and television investment and production. Of course, if there are resources, they will be provided to Miss Fan and Miss Zeng."
After Zhang Zhao readily agreed, he looked hesitant and lowered his voice slightly and said,
"Director Wan, it's no big deal if you're just playing for fun. Compared to other directors and stars in the industry, you're pretty good.
But you must not have real feelings. If you do, you will be easily affected by the pillow trend. When it affects you, it will naturally affect the company.
Miss Zeng Li, although I don't have much contact with her, I know that she doesn't have that much thought.I'm not worried about you having real feelings for her.
This is Miss Fan. She is very utilitarian and will do anything for resources!
If you have true feelings for her, she will definitely blow your pillows on you often. Then, it will be troublesome!
Director Wan, I, Zhang Zhao, am not a person who gossips behind people’s backs, and I don’t want to cause any estrangement in our relationship because of my words.
But I am just worried that you will be affected by them in the development of the company, so I cannot tell you this. "
Halfway through Zhang Zhao's words, Wan Qingshan wanted to interrupt and refute.
But I thought it would be better to let Zhang Zhao finish speaking, so as not to appear rude.
As soon as Zhang Zhao finished speaking, Wan Qingshan immediately said, "Mr. Zhang, don't you believe the gossip reported by the news media?
I answered the reporter’s interview, but they deliberately didn’t report it in order to gain popularity for the news. "
Zhang Zhao raised his eyebrows and said solemnly, "Director Wan, since you said that, there are some things I have to say openly. If there are some offensive words, I hope you can understand. I don't want it to be because of your personal feelings. , ultimately affecting the company’s development.”
Zhang Zhao's expression surprised Wan Qingshan, "Uh, Mr. Zhang, please let go and say, I have nothing to be taboo about!"
Zhang Zhao picked up the tea cup and poured tea for himself and Wan Qingshan, and said,
"Well, Director Wan, I'll tell you straight. I've been in the industry for many years, and I'm familiar with people in the press. I know they deliberately didn't report what you said next.
But Wan Dao, have you ever thought about why the news about you, Zeng Li, and Fan Bayi spread so widely and became so popular? "
Wan Qingshan thought as he replied, "I think it's probably because the three of us are popular, and because "Loyal Liver and Righteousness" was a big hit in the United States at that time, everyone's eyes were on us!"
After pouring the tea, Zhang Zhao put down the teapot and shook his head slightly, "Director Wan, that's not the reason. Wang Fei and Xie Tingfeng were both the most popular stars back then. The news that spread before they fell in love was not as popular as your news. wide.
The reason is that you are so good to Zeng Li and Fan Bayi, so good that even I have to believe that you have that kind of relationship with them.
Everyone in my circle believes it, not to mention the public, they will definitely think that the scandal is true.
They wanted to have fun, to see Miss Chen Yumo's reaction when she found out, and even more to see if Zeng Li would quarrel with Fan Bayi, so the news spread widely. "
Wan Qingshan was stunned for a moment and retorted, "I just have a normal cooperative relationship with them, and I don't treat them well!"
Zhang Zhao was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Wan Qingshan could open his eyes and tell lies.
"Director Wan, if you are not nice to them, then there is no such thing as being nice to others in that circle!
After Fan Bayi and you co-founded the company, she starred in "The Golden Armor", and you, who has never taken on external roles, were actually one of the leading actors.
Then in your new film with Zhang Jin, Fan Bayi is the female lead again.
Director Wan, you told the media that Jiang Zhiqiang invited Fan Bayi to star. Jiang Zhiqiang also answered the reporter directly, saying that he invited Fan Bayi to star.
But we are not fools. After Fan Bayi started a company with you, she starred in two big movies produced by big directors, and you were in them. If you weren't helping her from behind, who would believe it?
You're even more so kind to Zeng Li, Director Wan, I know you've known her for many years, and you've known her since you were in school.
But your girlfriend is from the Performance Department of Nortel, and Director Wan, you often go to the Performance Department to take classes. You should be very familiar with the people in the Performance Department.
But unfortunately, she starred in two of your movies, and she was almost praised as an international actress.
What about your classmates from the acting department?You praise Yu Bo alone, and you are a man!
Forget about movie roles, it’s normal for Director Wan to praise your confidante.
But Director Wan, for the sake of Zeng Li, actually sent "Loyalty and Loyalty" to the college film festival with which you have a grudge.
Director Wan, don’t mention sending “Loyalty and Loyalty” to the College Student Film Festival. You want to win awards and get honors.
If you wanted to win an award, you should have submitted "The True Meaning of Love" to the competition.
Although "The True Meaning of Love" is not as good as "The True Meaning of Love" at the box office, it is the first commercial film starring all mainland actors with a box office of over [-] million. In this sense, "The True Meaning of Love" has a higher chance of winning than "The True Meaning of Love". Loyalty to the Liver and Righteousness to the Brave" is much bigger!
To put it bluntly, if it weren’t for the purpose of promoting Zeng Li to the position of best actress, Director Wan, you would definitely not go to the College Student Film Festival.
Director Wan, if you pull yourself away and look at it as a bystander, do you think your kindness to Zeng Li is a bit outrageous? "
The fact that Tang Jianli presided over the meeting was only spread within a small area, and Zhang Zhao did not have a good relationship. In addition, Zhang Zhao had already told Wang Changtian that he was leaving, and Wang Changtian also knew that Zhang Zhao was going to Wanqing Mountain, so Wang Changtian Changtian didn't tell Zhang Zhao about Tang Jianli's hosting of the meeting, so Zhang Zhao didn't know the inside story at all.
After Wan Qingshan's incident at the College Student Film Festival was put down by the higher authorities, people in the industry were wondering why Wan Qingshan would bring "Loyal Liver and Righteousness" to the College Student Film Festival given the grudge between Wan Qingshan and the College Student Film Festival!
After thinking about it, I can only think that Wan Qingshan went to the College Student Film Festival because of Zeng Li.
Given the subject matter of "Loyal Liver and Righteous Bravery", it is impossible for Zeng Li to win the award at the Shanghai International Film Festival!
There is no hope for the Huabiao Award or the Hundred Flowers Award given Zeng Li's qualifications.
Although the value of the University Student Film Festival Award is lower than that of the Huabiao Award and the Hundred Flowers Award, it is still higher than that of other film festival awards.
And at the College Student Film Festival, there is a Most Popular Actress Award.
This award is not difficult to implement for Wan Qingshan, and it is also the most suitable for Zeng Li.Because Zeng Li won this award, no one would say that Zeng Li's acting skills were not good enough.
That's why Wan Qingshan put aside his grudges and took "Loyal Liver and Righteousness" to participate in the College Student Film Festival!
Some people are even thinking that Wan Qingshan was upset at the College Student Film Festival because Zeng Li didn't win the award. If Zeng Li won the Most Popular Actress Award, then Wan Qingshan would definitely not be upset!
Everyone in the industry believes this statement!
Wan Qingshan wanted to refute Zhang Zhao. He did not go to the Student Film Festival for Zeng Li. He just wanted to see that the University Student Film Festival was unwilling to give him an award, but he had to give him the award. He wanted to vomit what he had received at the University Student Film Festival. gas.
But Tang Jianli told him at the beginning not to spread the word about winning the award!
He vaguely told Zeng Li a little bit before, because he saw Zeng Li leaving the scene with him and didn't want to lie to her.As for Fan Bayi, she was smart and guessed a little bit.
But it was impossible for him to tell Zhang Zhao inside information, so he couldn't refute Zhang Zhao's statement about going to the university film festival, but he had something to refute what Zhang Zhao said before!
But when Wan Qingshan wanted to speak, Zhang Zhao started praising him again.
"Of course, Zeng Li also has affection for you, Director Wan, and she deserves to be so kind to you, Director Wan.
At the College Student Film Festival, she dared to take the lead and leave with you. For this reason, I admire her very much.
Zeng Li has real feelings for you, Director Wan, so I’m not worried that she will blow off the pillow and affect the company!
Director Wan, do you know what other people in the industry say about you and Zeng Li? "
"Uh-huh, what should I say?" Wan Qingshan asked curiously.
Zhang Zhao picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then put down the teacup and said with a smile, "Haha, they say you and Zeng Li are the same Zhang Yimou and Gong Li back then!"
"Well! This is too exaggerated! You actually compare me and Zeng Li with Director Zhang and Gong Li!
Mr. Zhang, whether you believe it or not, I will explain it to you so that you won’t worry too much.
Zeng Li and I are just friends.When she acted in "The True Meaning of Love," I can say that I had selfish motives.
But it was just because she was my friend, so even though she was not very suitable for the role of Zuo Zhi, I gave her the role.
But in the later movie "Loyalty and Righteousness", she was very suitable for the role of Mai Xinxin, so I invited her! "
Then, Wan Qingshan thought it was a bit funny and said with a smile, "As for Fan Bayi, the two movies she starred in in succession were all my fault, but I didn't force her into it.
In order to invite me to star in "The Golden Armor", Zhang Weiping gave me a supporting actress role.
The female lead in my new film was chosen because I gave suggestions to the script that Jiang Zhiqiang submitted, and then I used the favor of giving suggestions to the script to cast a female lead from Jiang Zhiqiang.
My company has no artists, so of course I gave the role to Fan Bayi.
After all, she is more popular and makes more money, so I can share more.I gave her these two roles purely from a business perspective."
Zhang Zhao only believed a little of Wan Qingshan's explanation of his relationship with Fan Bayi. After all, Wan Qingshan's explanation was too coincidental.
Otherwise, Fan Bayi's reputation was not good. Everyone in the circle knew that Fan Bayi would do anything for resources in the past, and Wan Qingshan was not a pervert, so Zhang Zhao didn't believe it at all.
Zhang Zhao didn't believe Wan Qingshan's explanation of the relationship between Zeng Li and Wan Qingshan at all, because Wan Qingshan didn't explain why he went to the College Student Film Festival.
"Director Wan, I believe what you said, but I still hope you won't affect the company because of your pillow style!"
Wan Qingshan rolled his eyes in his heart. Zhang Zhao said he believed it, but he was worried that he would be affected by the pillow wind, which meant that he didn't believe it at all.
But it’s not surprising that he couldn’t explain why he went to the College Student Film Festival.
Since he couldn't explain it, Wan Qingshan stopped explaining. He sighed in his heart and said helplessly,
"Mr. Zhang, don't worry, this won't happen. Although I'm not a very strong-willed person, I'm not to the point where my influence on my company will be affected."
Zhang Zhao believed this. Judging from past cooperation experience, Wan Qingshan was very determined in some matters and would not retreat even a step.
He just mentioned specifically asking Wan Qingshan to pay attention to pillow wind, just in case.
"Director Wan, I just wanted to give you a heads up. I have no other intention. I hope you won't take it too seriously."
"No, Mr. Zhang, you are also worried about the company, I can understand that!"
After saying this, Wan Qingshan and Zhang Zhao stopped talking about other serious matters. Then, they casually chatted for a while and left Beauty Jiangnan.
After watching Zhang Zhao get into the car, Wan Qingshan got in the car and asked Duan Tong to drive home. Then he took out his mobile phone and called Chen Yumo.
After the call was connected, Chen Yumo's voice spread through the phone,
'Such a request must not be agreed to. The time for repayment is too long. Who knows what the other company will be like in one or two years. You continue to negotiate with the other party and the time for repayment is within three months.
If you can't negotiate, just say that your company's business has been busy recently and orders have been overwhelming for several months. In order not to delay your company's business, we can't cooperate for the time being! '
'I know Mr. Chen! 'A man's voice sounded.
Wan Qingshan couldn't help but glance at his phone before shouting, "Hey, Yumo!"
'You go down first! '
'Yes, Mr. Chen! '
Then came Chen Yumo's very clear voice on the phone, "What's wrong? What's the matter?"
Wan Qingshan sighed in his heart. He and Chen Yumo were not married yet, but since the Chinese New Year this year, they have become more and more like an old couple when talking on the phone. They are casual and direct, without any relationship between lovers. sweet conversation!
"Yu Mo, I want to ask you, how did you start buying the rights to broadcast movies and TV series online?
Aren't you concentrating on studying with your uncle now and waiting to take over in the future?Why, you still want to bring the Chen Group into the film and television industry! "
"That's it, hehe, I have no intention of leading the Chen Group into the film and television industry, I just want to make some money.
I started buying online broadcast rights for movies and TV series the year before last.
At that time, didn’t you say that film and television network broadcast rights would be very valuable in the future?
Later during the National Day, I made a special trip home and asked my dad for his opinion. My dad agreed with your statement.
So I asked my dad for a few million, sent people to Hong Kong Island, and bought a large number of online broadcast rights for movies and TV series.
I originally wanted to buy one from the Mainland, but last year the company wanted to develop, and my dad couldn’t spare the funds for me to buy it, so I stopped.
Some time ago, the company's financial pressure eased, so I asked my dad to give me money, and I continued to buy the online broadcast rights for mainland movies and TV series. "
Chen Yumo's words reminded Wan Qingshan that when he was filming "The True Meaning of Love", Chen Yumo originally said he would not go home during the National Day, but later he suddenly went home!
Wan Qingshan thought for a while and asked, "Yu Mo, how many online broadcast rights for movies and TV series do you have now?"
"I didn't understand this carefully. Well, there seem to be hundreds, almost a thousand. Most of them are Hong Kong film and television dramas. What's wrong?"
"That can,,,"
As soon as he said these three words, Wan Qingshan realized that this was unrealistic!
Chen Yumo asked on the phone, "What can I do?"
"It's nothing, I just thought wrong for a moment.
By the way, Yumo, I have something else I want to tell you. The previous scandal between me and Zeng Li and Fan Bayi was all made up by reporters. They didn’t even report what I said next. "
When Fan Bayi and Wan Qingshan were photographed in South Beauty, causing a scandal, Wan Qingshan immediately called Chen Yumo to explain.
But even without his explanation, Chen Yumo didn't believe it at all!
So when it was rumored that he had an affair with Fan Bayi and Zeng Li, he didn't expect to explain it to Chen Yumo.
But after Zhang Zhao's words, he realized that the scandal between him and Zeng Li was too easy to believe.
Then he thought that when "Loyal Liver, Righteous and Brave" went to Shenzhen for a road show, Chen Yumo deliberately held his hand and kept it in Zeng Li's sight.
Wan Qingshan realized that there was no need to explain the scandal between him and Fan Bayi, but he and Zeng Li had to explain it to Chen Yumo!
After waiting for a few seconds, Chen Yumo's laughter came from the phone,
"Hey, it's been half a month since the news came out. We've talked on the phone more than ten times in the meantime, but you haven't given me a single explanation. Even when I was interviewed by a reporter, you just asked me if I had ever been made trouble by a reporter. .
Why now, you want to explain to me again, your reflex arc is so long! "
Wan Qingshan's thoughts quickly turned around and he replied, "Didn't I have a scandal with Fan Bayi before? When I explained it to you, you didn't believe it at all.
So after this scandal came out, I believed you would still believe me, so I didn’t explain it to you.
It's just that when I was talking to others, I realized that the scandal between me and Zeng Li was a bit outrageous, so I thought of explaining it to you! "
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yumo's voice came from the phone!
"Wan Qingshan, it's because now that you don't believe that I will believe you, you are trying to explain to me!"
At this point, Wan Qingshan might have been a little anxious if there hadn't been a slight 'puff' of laughter in his cell phone because he couldn't hold back his laughter.
"Yu Mo, stop making trouble and be serious."
"What do you mean I'm making trouble? Did I say something wrong? Isn't it because you're explaining to me now that you don't believe that I will believe you?"
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, please stop making trouble."
Suddenly, Chen Yumo's tone became normal, "Okay, I won't joke with you anymore. I have to have a meeting later, so I can't talk to you any more. I'm hanging up!"
"Yeah, hang up!"
After hanging up the phone, Wan Qingshan held the phone and sighed in his heart, "I'm still short of money!"
When he just heard Chen Yumo say that he had the online broadcast rights for nearly a thousand movies and TV series, Wan Qingshan came up with the idea of starting a video broadcast platform company.
But after saying three words to Chen Yumo, Wan Qingshan thought that he couldn't afford the video playback platform.
Before Kuaibo was overthrown, opening a video playback platform was a waste of money, and it was a waste of money.
After Kuaibo failed, it had to burn money to compete with Youku and others, and it was impossible to make a profit in a short period of time.
In the early days of the theater chain industry, it was a gold-eating beast. Then there was a bigger gold-eating beast than the theater chain - the video playback platform. No matter how fast it made money, it could not afford it.
After a while, Wan Qingshan returned to the alley where his home was. Without entering the house, he went directly to Yan Dong's house to spend the night.
He has been on the set of "A City of Golden Armor" since the College Student Film Festival, and Chen Yumo never came to live in it. Needless to say, his home must be full of dust now.
He was too lazy to clean up, because he had to fly to the Magic City tomorrow, and he could only stay for one day after cleaning up. Then he would have to clean up again when he came back from the Magic City.
The next morning, Wan Qingshan and Zhang Zhao signed the contract for the shares of Qingshan Media Company. After going to the bank to transfer 500 million, he took Duan Tong and two bodyguards on a flight to Shanghai.
