Chapter 910: Love is like business, it takes both coaxing and deceiving (Part )

Beijing.

"What's going on with this Hermès Films? Aren't they known to have good vision? Why did they suddenly announce a partnership with DMG Entertainment?"

Wen Zhang, with a buzz cut, was sitting in the Wanda Pullman Hotel.

This will be one of the filming locations for the movie "Love Is Not Blind".

Although the film has not yet been announced to start shooting, the preparatory work is almost complete.

Not only was he present at the hotel, but also Bai Yizhi, who played the female lead, and director Teng Huatao were also present.

"Why, are you jealous?" Bai Yizhi said half-jokingly, "How about I ask for you?"

"Okay."

Wen Zhang smiled and nodded.

The entertainment industry is a place where connections are important. He has made his mark in several works such as "Struggle", "Dwelling Narrowness", and "Snow Leopard", which have brought him considerable fame.

But he was able to expand his own small circle, relying more on the support of his wife and godfather.

He relies on his wife, while Bai Yizhi relies on her husband.

Their agent is Wang Jinghua, a big shot in the Beijing circle. On the road to fame and fortune, the two have a lot in common.

"Haha, you really thought I would ask."

Bai Yizhi smiled and glanced at Wen Zhang. She didn't have the time to find out about this.

In her opinion, Yang AB is Huang Xiaoming's girlfriend, and the relationship between Huang Xiaoming and Liu Qianqian is no secret in the circle.

Now that Hermès Film Investment Company is increasing its investment in China, it is not a foregone conclusion that helping to introduce a film contract is a natural thing.

The only pity is that I didn’t get this resource.

By the way, doesn’t the name of Hermès Film Investment Company also appear among the investors of "Love Is Not Blind"?

At the meeting, the crew also planned to use this point for publicity.

"We can't compare with them." Wen Zhang curled his lips.

According to him, although "Love Is Not Blind" obtained investment with the help of China Film, it is completely different from "Summer Love Is Blind".

This can be seen just from the reports of the signing ceremony.

"Summer Joy" is no different from a real one. Not only did the CEO of Hermès Film Investment Company attend the press conference, but several brands that sponsored the product placement, such as FILA and Anta, also sent people to attend.

On the other hand, Little John, who had met Wen Zhang and Li Lianjie once on the set of "Ocean Paradise", did not even ask any questions after transferring the money.

Doesn't this just prove that the importance attached to the two projects is not at the same level at all?

"This is normal."

Bai Yizhi actually knew something about the situation.

She heard from others that although Hermès Film Investment Company decided to invest in "Love Is Not Blind" only after Han Sanping's strong recommendation.

But the entire crew, whether it is the director, screenwriter or the actors, are all from the Beijing circle.

The investment amount is not high.

Their investment is nothing more than giving Han Sanping face.

Speaking of face, Xiao Wuge, as a capitalist, has no more face in the circle than director Teng Huatao.

"What are you two doing sitting here and chatting about?" Teng Huatao did as he said after confirming the venue.

From a distance, he saw the two people whispering to each other in a familiar manner.

To be honest, he was quite happy.

This is the advantage of using acquaintances. There is no need for him to explain the scenes to the two actors. The actors will start preparing for their respective roles on their own.

"Director, we are talking about today's news." Wen Zhang said with a smile.

"Oh, this." Teng Huatao thought they were talking about the scenes in the script that took place in this hotel, but he didn't expect that he was overthinking.

"Director, when we announce the start of filming, will they send someone over?"

Bai Yizhi also followed the topic and asked tentatively.

"I think he will come."

Teng Huatao did not comment. He did meet Little John once and they talked for a while when signing the investment contract, but they had almost no contact after that.

The person sent by Hermès Film Investment Company to work on the project "Love Is Not Blind" was sent from CC Pictures.

This treatment is indeed not as good as DMG Entertainment.

After all, according to the reports, in addition to serving as the producer of "Summer Fun", the two parties have also signed a guaranteed distribution contract.

There is nothing on their side.

As for the guaranteed release, if you don't look into it, you really won't have much to think about.

But after getting a general understanding, Teng Huatao just wanted to say that he could also sign it, and he was confident in his film.

"You guys can chat all you want, but there is one thing I want to say first."

Teng Huatao felt unhappy when he thought that others got a great bargain for free while he could only collect the director and screenwriter's fees.

By the way, he also gave appropriate reminders to Wen Zhang and Bai Yizhi.

He doesn't accept any drama.

However, if there is no schedule conflict, he has no objection.

If the two of them can really participate in this film, it will at least provide more publicity for their own film.

"Director, don't worry, we are not newcomers." Wen Zhang's eyes lit up and he glanced at Rolling Stone.

Whether she is willing to be the second or third female lead is her own business.

"Summer Joy" has not yet chosen the male lead.

This is an opportunity.

It may feel good to always take advantage of your wife and find a father for yourself, but as a man, you must also have something of your own to show off.

He is tired of having to boast about how much he loves his wife every time he gives an interview.

Bai Yizhi, who was standing by, smiled as if he understood what he meant.

For projects that Hermès Film Investment Company participates in, is it important whether the female lead is important?

Li Bingbing has basically not many scenes in "The Social Network", but that doesn't stop her from stepping onto the red carpet in Hollywood and enjoying the treatment that only superstars can get.

So, what happened to the second girl?
Could it be that my acting skills are not as good as this guy named Yang AB?

When it comes to using a man's resources to smoothen one's career path, she is a veteran.

"Liu, I'll go to England and wait for you." Little John, who had successfully signed a bet agreement with DMG Entertainment, was in a particularly good mood. The damn task assigned to him was finally completed.

Now, there's nothing he can do to urge her.

He has already begun to think about how to present the profit-sharing agreement of "Fifty Shades of Grey" to Xiang Yang so that it will seem natural after he reunites with Xiang Yang in the UK.

Of course, we have to show off this power.

Little John swore that he had never been involved in such a deceptive thing since he was a child.

"You're not coming with us?"

Liu Qianqian, who had almost packed her luggage, was a little surprised.

"No, I still need to confirm the details with the lawyer." Little John shook his head and complained, "I find that you and Xiang Ting have a tacit understanding. Even things like lawyers have to be arranged by me."

Liu Qianqian glanced at Little John. She didn't quite understand what was so good about complaining about it.

It has always been like this.

"If it's too troublesome for you, should I find a lawyer myself?" she asked.

Hearing this, Little John felt his throat tighten a little. He waved his hand and quickly cleared his throat, smiling awkwardly:
"No, no, I was just kidding."

Fearing that Liu Qianqian was really tempted, he added, "You can just leave this kind of small matter to me. If you leave it to Xiang, he will just let me do it. Just treat it as a..."

He looked around and saw his son lying on the cushion, staring at Mu Xin and Zhi Yin who were playing with building blocks in front of him. He raised the corner of his mouth and smiled:
"Just think of it as a way for me, as a father, to repay JoJo for all the hard work you've put in these few days."

Following his words, Liu Qianqian glanced at the three little guys who were soaking together again and blinked.

If you put it that way, it doesn't seem impossible.

Even though he is lying down obediently now, he is the most worrying one among the three children.

It would be fine if he didn't eat a lot, but he always annoyed Mu Xin and Zhi Yin. No matter what toys they were playing with, he would always try to grab them.

Then hold her in your arms and don't let go.

There are so many toys on the ground.
"Liu, is it really appropriate for me to attend your reality show?" Laura's words drew Liu Qianqian's attention back.

She herself was used to the fact that children would start crying soon after being together.

To be honest, the person in the whole room who was most patient in trying to stop the fight was only Liu Xiaoli.

"Of course it's appropriate."

Liu Qianxi nodded.

Although Enlight Pictures has extensive experience in producing television programs, to be honest, she was a little disappointed after reading the script for the first episode of this reality show.

It's kind of like a version of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

If it hadn't been revised twice later and some exaggerated content hadn't been removed, she would have wanted to refuse to participate in the filming.

I don’t know what the program planners were thinking. They just wanted to focus on showing off wealth.

Although the castle she and Xiangyang bought was expensive, it couldn't really be called precious.

In terms of selling price, it is far less than the luxury homes of domestic celebrities.

As for Xiangyang's cars, except for a Ferrari customized by Hermes, the others can't be considered luxury cars.

Ok.

The only thing Xiangyang can show off when traveling is probably his road bike which costs more than 100,000 yuan.

According to her understanding, few celebrities in China would buy such an expensive bicycle for exercise.

They prefer to post pictures of themselves at the gym.

Unfortunately, the bicycle is lost.
"We can not bring up the topic of bicycles." When talking about the lost bicycle, little John's face suddenly dimmed.

The bicycle that Xiangyang gave him was also lost.

My son can’t ride the one he has yet.

If JCE hadn't been keeping a close eye on him, he really wanted to sell little JoJo's bicycle and buy an adult version of TIME to go and play with Macron.

You have it, and so do I.

"Then when you make money from Fifty Shades of Grey, you can buy a few good ones." Liu Qianqian turned around and said to Little John, "But you can't send Xiangyang, or I'll be angry."

“I’m not going to waste that money.”

"He was led astray by you."

"Is there any?"

"No?" Liu Qianqian glanced at Little John. If she hadn't been sorting out the content that could be filmed in the variety show, she really wouldn't have realized how much of Xiangyang's free time this guy in front of her had taken up.

We play football, ride bikes, and get together to drink.

It turned out that Xiangyang was just punching in and out as usual, and she didn't have many announcements, so it was no big deal.

Now that the two of them are getting busier and busier, they have to participate in so many projects that they lose time to spend together.

Whose good times were missed?

Not all of them belong to her, Liu Xixi.

".Alas!" Little John lowered his head. If it weren't for the money, he really wanted to argue a little.

How can we blame him for all these things? It's obvious that Xiangyang also likes to play.

Do you think that day only Tom Hiddleston and Benedict Cumberbatch were taking photos with their phones?

If your husband Xiangyang hadn't taken out a newly bought DSLR camera from the bedroom to play with it while drinking.
"He bought a new camera?" Liu Qianqian frowned, and her eyes lit up after a few seconds.

Xiangyang Club is good at photography.

It was a good shot, and she knew it.

But it’s different from Karl Lagerfeld who would shoot some material blockbusters from time to time to promote his designs.

Xiangyang seldom takes pictures.

Liu Qianqian is very clear about this.

And he suddenly bought a SLR camera without telling me.
So, could it be that what I said worked?
Xiangyang is ready to personally record the scenery they see during their trip?

"Yeah, who knows what he was thinking? He even held the camera and recorded the video for a long time." Little John looked at Liu Qianqian in surprise.

How can I be happy about this?

Your husband would rather take me cycling and play football with me, but now he has come up with a new hobby and won’t play it with you.

Doesn't that mean you should reflect on yourself?
