China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 83 Focus!

Entertainment all day long.

Wang Jinghua looked blankly at Zhu Yawen's shameless look and said, "Yawen, although I know that you have a good relationship with Director Guan, you can't be so shameless."

"Sister Hua, please stop teasing me. We were just joking with Guanzi. We were anxious and a little excited just now. He didn't call me dad when we were in the dormitory."

Zhu Yawen was telling the truth, but it was before his junior year.

But after that, he could only be a son.

Wang Jinghua was noncommittal and asked:

"What did you say over there?"

Wang Jinghua was sitting in front of Zhu Yawen at the moment. It was obvious that Zhu Yawen's call just now was her request.

When she learned about Guan Ling's Oscar nomination for the first time, Wang Jinghua thought that Zhu Yawen must be the one to win over the relationship. In fact, it was mainly because she was curious and wanted to see if there were any spots available in Guan Ling's new drama plan.
But even without her request, Zhu Yawen would take the initiative to congratulate her.

"Guanzi said that after finishing the filming of his new movie, he would give me a starring role. And his $[-] million blockbuster said that I would have a supporting role, and he said that he would also give me a TV series. It’s a guest supporting role, so it’s not bad for my development.”

"Really?"

Wang Jinghua looked incredible. Guan Ling helped him find "Da Ming" and "Crossing Guandong" before. Wang Jinghua read the scripts, and they were all top-notch.

Therefore, as long as the TV series script is recommended by Guan Ling, Zhu Yawen can change the schedule, and Wang Jinghua doesn't have to read it at all now.

What shocked her the most was the role in a $[-] million blockbuster.

As for the starring role, Wang Jinghua knew very well that it would happen sooner or later, which was why she had not contacted Guan Ling too much before.

Judging from the relationship between Zhu Yawen and Guan Ling, Zhu Yawen has enough resources in movies. From The Uninvited Guest to The Suspect, Zhu Yawen has movie roles. Although there are no recent two movies, Wang Jinghua has watched almost all the movies. There is really nothing suitable for Zhu Yawen. Role.

So Wang Jinghua is not too nervous.

She is both a mentor and a friend to her artists, and she treats them with all her heart and soul. Among the new generation of artists under her banner, Wang Jinghua is most optimistic about Zhu Yawen, because he has a backing.

She only needs to help him choose a good script, and Guan Ling will fill in other schedules.

As for this [-] million US dollar blockbuster, everyone in the industry is watching.

There was some news leaked by Guangguang before. There are many actors. It’s hard to say how many roles they have, but there are a lot of them.

Everyone in the industry wants to join in the fun.

Many agents went to Lingyun Media, and Chengtian Entertainment was no exception, but Wang Jinghua did not go there in person.

She just stared.

In fact, Huayi has cut off some of her resources since last year, but Huayi doesn't dare to break out because she has too many artists, and there will inevitably be areas where she needs to cooperate in the future.

It's just that the discord between the two parties will definitely be difficult to reconcile for a while.

On the lips, she calls her "Hua Jie, Hua Jie", but she doesn't necessarily scold her behind her back.

"Yes, and I even asked him to have dinner when he returns to China. It seems that the domestic characters will only talk in detail after returning to China."

Zhu Yawen replied.

"When I meet with Director Guan, help me ask Xia Yu and Li Xiaolu if there is a chance. These two people have the ability and acting skills. If Director Guan is willing to provide them with a platform to go to Hollywood, Chengtian and I, Wang Jinghua, will be very grateful. .”

This is Wang Jinghua’s true purpose.

At this time, no one wants to go to Hollywood.

A few years ago, in order to go to Hollywood, Shuqi and Guo Dastanson had a scene where they took off their clothes and committed suicide. Guo Da couldn't help but start sucking, and the audience was extremely horny.

Not to mention Zhang Rarei who wore a bellyband at the film festival.

Gong Li is famous in three major film festivals. She has played the absolute leading role in Hollywood's "Memoirs of a Geisha", "Miami Vice" and "Hannibal", but she is a real movie queen with strong power.

Can't compare.

Xia Yu has actually already filmed two Hollywood movies. As an actor who won the Venice Best Actor at the age of 17, his recent development in movies has actually been somewhat bottlenecked.

"Panda Dream" Xia Yu is an actor, but the play mainly talks about every stone in the magnificent Three Gorges, every tree in the beautiful Jiuzhaigou, and every hair of the innocent giant panda. The audio-visual effects are indeed very shocking, making people feel like they are in the world. Once there, every detail of the scenery was visible, but Xia Yu didn't get much support.

Last year, "The Veil" co-produced by Xia Yu scored very high on Douban, but it was not well-received. The box office was 300 million US dollars in the mainland and 800 million US dollars in Hollywood. Compared with the global popularity of "Hearing Girl", Xia Yu once doubted his life. .

You know, the star of this drama is Edward Norton!
It shouldn't have a stronger box office appeal than Liu Yifei, but in the end, it was a failure at the box office.

Li Xiaolu is a new generation actress that Wang Jinghua wants to focus on recently. Her acting skills are sufficient and she is sweet. Wang Jinghua intends to let her make more movies.

"I'll ask when the time comes, but Sister Hua, I can't guarantee this, so I just mentioned it."

"You can just ask. I just want them to have a fair chance to compete." Wang Jinghua was noncommittal. She went through the formal channels of Lingyun Media, but when it came to artists, she still wanted to use Zhu Yawen as a mouthpiece.

Walked out of Zhu Yawen's room.

After a while, Xia Yu appeared in Wang Jinghua's house.

"Sister Hua, thank you. Yawen and I have similar images, so I can't say anything about it.

I still use 伱 to open my mouth. It doesn’t matter how many roles the character plays. The main thing is that I have a hunch that Director Guan’s film this time may still be well-received and a box office hit.

I think it's better to contact him first than wait. "

Xia Yu had some envy on her face, "I heard from people in Beijing that Director Guan wrote a script for Director Jiang. Now Director Jiang is reading the script in addition to watching the children, and the later stages of "The Sun Also Rises" have been released.

Alas, Yawen's life is good. He doesn't have any fathers in the circle, but having such a brother is very useful. "Don't think about it, just wait for the results." "Wang Jinghua said.

"There are some things you can't envy."

Having a relationship with a big director brother, just mentioning it casually, is a resource that countless agents in the industry dream of.

At this point, Zhu Yawen can do it, but others can't.

…………

New Picture Pictures,
When Zhang Yimou learned the news, he was also surprised, but not as big as others.

Oscar nominations require Oscar nomination ballots to be sent out first, so Zhang Yimou knew that "Hearing Girl" was in the running, but to his surprise, "Hearing Girl" was directly nominated four times, and it was not a trivial nomination.

"A City of Golden Armor" is a tasteless nomination for Best Costume Design, which is essentially a complete chore.

"It's a conspiracy, so I won't publicize it? It's just a trick."

Zhang Weiping and Zhang Yimou discussed it. They originally thought that if they were nominated for the Olympics this time, they could publicize it. When the time came, the copyright would be sold to North America.When selling globally, the price can be higher.

"Stop promoting it. It's not like I haven't won it before. There is indeed a gap between the nominations received this time and Guan Ling's." Zhang Yimou is mature and prudent, and he also knows that there is no need for excessive publicity now.

"This kid is so evil." Zhang Weiping couldn't help laughing, "It's like he appeared out of nowhere."

"Era will create heroes," Zhang Yimou sat on the sofa. "As the history of Chinese film develops, it also needs a young leader."

"You can be open-minded," Zhang Weiping said, "It seems that Lingyun Media will cooperate in the future, and I will have to join in the fun."

"Come on, when he went to Hollywood to film "Hearing Girl", I felt that this guy was ambitious," Zhang Yimou shook his head.
“There are too many people like this in the Chinese film industry, but they are never down-to-earth, but now it seems that he has the real thing in his belly.

It’s better to cooperate with such people and don’t offend them.The younger he is, the more talented he is, and the more courage he has to start all over again. It can be seen from his fight with Hua Yi that this kid is crazy when he is crazy.

Recently, Huayi has been recruiting directors frequently in the industry. I think the Wang brothers may have noticed that Guan Ling’s new Hollywood movie is aimed at becoming the boss of domestic directors.

And once he becomes the boss, what will happen to Huayi..."

"I think this guy is either crazy or courageous," Zhang Weiping looked out the window, "I admire this kind of person very much. When I raised hundreds of millions for you to make "Heroes", wasn't it all about his courage? .”

"We and Ling Yun may be good partners."

"Everyone who has interests is a partner. Isn't this your famous saying?" Zhang Yimou didn't think of anything else. "During the ceremony a while ago, Guan Ling wanted to encourage the development of movies. Let's also express our position. It really happened." Policies have no harm at all.”

"Okay, I'll do it."

Zhang Weiping nodded, and then suddenly said.

"By the way, a group in North America offered [-] million to buy out the distribution rights of "Golden Armor"."

"This price is okay." Zhang Yimou said.

"I refused. Since we can't get any box office revenue, we can take advantage of the popularity of Guan Ling, a Chinese director, in North America. If we step up our game, we might be able to get tens of millions more. From this perspective, Guan Ling is also our God of Wealth. Lord."

Zhang Weiping smiled and said, "After all, you are still the most famous one in China."

…………

Guan Ling received too much news, and many people in the circle came to congratulate him.

Wang Shuo sent a text message this time to congratulate him.He also said that Jiang Wen was studying the script these days and had disconnected from the Internet. He also congratulated Guan Ling.

Various stars in the entertainment circle expressed their goodwill in the media constantly, and they all reached Guan Ling's ears directly or indirectly.

Guan Ling, although that person is in the United States, he is the focus of attention at home!
An existence that attracts everyone’s attention!

In these phone calls, there was no need to say too many compliments, but there were also some things that really moved Guan Ling.

For example, the phone number of Yan Yu, the manager of Dadi Film Investment Company.

"Guan Dao, our company has made a decision. It is a beneficial choice for both parties to cooperate with Lingyun Media to establish a movie theater chain company. We have commercial real estate, and Guan Dao, you have a brand effect. If we cooperate, we can target the second and third tiers. Foundation, radiate to first-tier cities!”

Yan Yu's phone call was about jointly establishing Dadi Lingyun Cinema Line.

"Shark Beach", "Hearing Girl", Oscar nominations, two blockbuster films, one nomination that shocked the country and abroad, completely worshiped Dadi Film Investment Company, they urgently need Guan Ling to join the game.

This influence and cooperation partners.

It will be of great benefit to Dadi Cinemas without any harm.

In fact, the name Dadi Cinema Line is originally unpretentious and has a very down-to-earth feeling.

The name Lingyun Media is very ambitious, and it seems to have high aspirations.

Dadi Lingyun Cinema Line Company.

This name is even more awesome, Guan Ling finalized this name.

Regarding the controlling stake, neither Guan Ling nor Dadi wanted to let go.

An initial investment of 500 million will be made to establish a new company with a registered capital of 6000 million, with Guan Ling accounting for 49% of the shares.

This is not over yet. In the future, Guan Ling’s investment in every theater investment will be just over 40.00%, but the shares of each theater will be the same, 49%.

The other party made absolute concessions.

And this is the price of the famous director Guan Ling!It's a brand effect.

Guan Ling has no reason to disagree!So it’s finally settled!The controlling rights were left to Dadi, but Guan Ling had the right to preemptively purchase the shares. At this point, Guan Ling took the first step in the theater chain!
