Actor: Thank you.
Chapter 782 Balancing the Parties
With the joint announcement of four representatives, Zhang Yuan, Jiang Zhiqiang, Han Sanpin and Wang Qiang, Cross-Strait Film Industry, which has a complex background, a large number of personnel and has integrated a large amount of film and television resources, was officially established.
More than a hundred guests present today put down their glasses filled with drinks or wine, clasped their hands and cheered.
Most of them feel that today is the day!
Putting aside other things, the name of this company alone is worth discussing for half a year.
Cross-strait film industry... Can anyone use this term?
Although the registration of companies in China has become extremely relaxed after the reform and opening up, anyone can open a few shell companies.
But there are clear regulations and red lines regarding company names.
Those with strange shapes should not be taken.
If you name a catering company "Jiaolegeji", you will be sanctioned sooner or later.
Contents involving pornography or violence are not allowed.
You are not allowed to use the name "Xinhe Liansheng" Co., Ltd.
Also, any words involving sensitive topics or special titles cannot be used casually.
It’s not that it can’t be used, it’s that it can’t be used casually.
So upon hearing the name, everyone present understood what these words meant.
"There's someone above me!"
Most of the people present were insiders from the film and television industry.
The purpose of coming to such occasions is to socialize, make connections, and build relationships.
Now I am involved in the internal launch of a rising star company in the industry, and of course I am overjoyed.
This is called "the one who is closest to the water gets the moon first!"
Communicate more with the people who make up the company and say hello to them, and maybe this will bring you a lot of opportunities.
But everyone also noticed that among those standing on the small stage, there was one person who seemed out of place.
A group of middle-aged people were sandwiched between a young man like Zhang Yuan.
And he is the only actor in this group.
The remaining ones are all veterans in the entertainment industry.
Therefore, everyone's attention was focused on him.
Just a few weeks and a month before, Zhang Yuan was at odds with the Hong Kong circle.
But now they are as close as a family.
This situation is beyond many people's imagination.
Now seeing him "eating at the same table" with the big boss, many actors' eyes are shining.
The actress wondered if it was possible to do a PY transaction.
Some male actors are also wondering if Zhang Yuan can conduct PY transactions.
Most people were targeting him instead of the others.
I plan to take him aside and have a good chat later.
Because we are all actors, it is easier for us to get along with each other.
Compared to these people's excitement, the faces of several people did not look good.
All I can say is that he is smiling with his lips but not his eyes.
Led by Li Xiaowan.
"It's over!"
Just now I wanted to talk to Lao Han about how to help Rong Xingda get out of this predicament, and at the same time teach this disrespectful junior a lesson.
What to say now?
Old Han was on the stage, hooking his arm around the boy's shoulder and happily expressing his gratitude for the cooperation!
This is the "protective measure" that Zhang Yuan had formulated early on.
It was part of his plan to cooperate with the Hong Kong circle to set up a company.
Through this company, I can cooperate and participate in more Hong Kong circles and my own works.
Both parties are actually quite happy about it.
Zhang Yuan needs channels in the Hong Kong circle and massive amounts of funds.
Given his size, he can only invest in some low-cost works now and cannot afford large-scale productions at all.
But with this company, it’s different.
There is plenty of money in the Hong Kong circle!
The reason why the Hong Kong circle is willing to do this, besides the fact that they have to stand at attention when being beaten, is for two other reasons.
With Zhang Yuan as the middleman, even if we can't guarantee success, at least we won't be stuck easily.
In addition, they investigated and found that Zhang Yuan's current situation was "never failed, and his record can be verified."
He has never lost money in any work he has participated in, whether acting or investing.
Even though "Qinghong" could not be released, selling the copyright still made a small profit.
There's nothing wrong with making money steadily.
If Hong Kong films want to make big money in mainland China, they have to go through China Film or Huaxia Film Corporation.
Because they can also "pass".
So far, none of the films that China Film Corporation has participated in have been blocked in review... until "Lust, Caution".
Because the resistance came from higher levels, there was nothing Lao Han could do.
In fact, Zhang Yuan knew that even without him, China Film Group Corporation had not always been defeated in its previous life.
This was the first time that China Film Corporation suffered a failure and was blocked from review, all because of Ning Hao.
And this film not only stars Lao Han, but also Zhang Qiang and he are producers.
Even though it was protected by two giants, China Film Group and China Film Corporation, it was still beaten back and was stuck for three or four years.
It can be seen that these two companies are not omnipotent.
Since all Hong Kong films had to go through China Film Group, and would also cooperate with other large companies in the imperial circle.
Especially big companies like Orange Sky and Huayi that already have cooperation with the Hong Kong circle.
If Zhang Yuan sets up a joint company now, it will inevitably harm the interests of this group of people.
Blocking someone's path to wealth is like killing their parents.
If you offend Lao Han, this "mountain eagle", you will also implicate a bunch of young men from the compound.
It will definitely not be easy afterwards.
So Zhang Yuan’s strategy is very simple.
If you can’t beat it, join!
He owns 40% of the shares in the cross-strait film industry and 40% of the Hong Kong companies.
It seems that he alone accounts for as much as the entire Hong Kong circle.
But the boss is often just an empty figure. Every day when I open my eyes, hundreds of people eat, drink, defecate and urinate, waiting for me to serve them, but only a few of the bites actually fall into his mouth.
He has so many shares, so he has to help the people above him.
Otherwise, why would people use the two big words "two sides of the strait" for you?
The remaining 20% is held by China Film Corporation and China Film Group Corporation each holding 10%.
These 20% are the "protection money" given to the two giants.
Zhang Yuan has to balance the forces of all parties.
His shareholding ratio is the same as that of Hong Kong circle.
China Film and Huaying have the same shareholding ratio.
This is called the way of balance.
The reason why Lao Han laughed so happily was because it was pure free money.
And Zhang Yuan set the equity ratio because of him.
Compared with the Hong Kong circle, he and others are apparently evenly matched.
So whoever China Film and Huaying support will have the leadership in the company.
Zhang Yuan wanted him to feel that although the share of China Film Group that he got for free was not much, it was very crucial.
Because money is important to Lao Han, but power is more important!
The Chinese film and television industry does not allow anyone to disobey his supervision, otherwise why would he be called Zuoshan Diao.
Because he and China Film Group, or the Beijing Film Studio behind China Film Group and the children of the imperial circle, have too much power in the Chinese film and television industry.
That’s why the above established China Film Corporation in 03 to act as a check and balance.
China Film Corporation is a company composed of Shanghai Film Studio, Changchun Film Studio, Western Film Studio, Xiaoxiang Film Studio, Emei Film Studio, Tianjin Film Studio, Pearl River Film Studio, Tianshan Film Studio, and eight major cinema chains in China.
At first, it united all forces except the Beijing Film Studio.
But even so, China Film still eventually held a stake in China Film Corporation, but the proportion was very small.
The higher-ups want to share power, but they don't want them to actually fight.
Therefore, once China Film Group and Huaying Film Group are included in the list, it will not only enhance their strength but also avoid many troubles.
Just like Li Xiaowan now.
Old Han just got a big piece of meat, and then he turned against Zhang Yuan?
Even he couldn't do this.
That's why Zhang Yuan dared to take action against Rong Xingda because he was well prepared.
He doesn't even need Lao Han's help. As long as he plays it safe and doesn't help either side, he will win.
Because in this game, as long as I don’t lose, the other party must win.
A draw is also considered a lucky loss.
If two old veterans could defeat a young man, they would either lose or be defeated.
What is Tai Chi?
A little force can defeat a great force. Before Rong Xingda could throw this punch, it had already disappeared without a trace.
When the opponent saw my fist as big as a casserole, he ran away. This is called defeating the enemy without fighting.
In addition to Li Xiaowan, Xiao Wang also felt mixed emotions at this time.
Wang Zhonglei finally understood why Zhang Yuan specially invited him here today.
I thought that the relationship between the two sides had become awkward since the Yao Cheng incident.
Taking the initiative to invite someone at this time is definitely an attempt to break the ice and show goodwill.
He also only wants good things.
Now I realize that I was thinking the opposite.
It was not a show of goodwill, but a way to intimidate him by establishing a new company.
While Old Han was speaking, Zhang Yuan glanced at Xiao Wang.
"In the little notebook in my heart called 'I don't hold grudges', your names are ranked higher than Li Shaohong's."
"How dare you steal my girl."
"Now I'm 'embracing women on both sides', let's see if you dare to do the same to me!"
Wang Zhonglei was naturally unhappy.
In the blink of an eye, the younger brother was almost climbing over his head.
"I hope you will give me more support in the future!" Old Han waved his arm and the audience burst into warm applause.
A short internal press conference came to an end.
"Boss Jiang, please help me more in the future."
"Of course, they are all our own people."
After the meal started, the other actors looked at Zhang Yuan who was sitting at the main table with envy.
He was drinking and chatting with a few bigwigs.
"Boss Han, respect to you."
"The speed of a train depends entirely on the locomotive."
"You need to lead us more."
"Hahaha, no problem!" Old Han took over his words without any modesty.
Wang Xiaoping, who was sitting at the same table, pushed her husband Zheng Xiaolong.
"Luckily I asked you to say hello to them last time."
"Yeah……"
Zheng Xiaolong didn't expect that such a short time had passed and in the blink of an eye, the other person had become rich!
Director Zheng and Teacher Wang took some time to read the novel that Zhang Yuan recommended to them.
I think it's interesting.
But if they want to shoot it, they have to change it.
Not only does the story have to be edited, but it also has to be filmed properly.
Zheng Xiaolong is a big director. He thought that if he was going to shoot a movie, he had to shoot a serious blockbuster, not a purely fictional palace romance drama like "My Fair Princess".
But you have to be careful when shooting blockbuster movies.
Once you think about it, you will find that money is endless.
They were invited here today and wanted to talk about this with Zhang Yuan.
Money is a big deal, and I’m afraid he can’t come up with that much.
But now seeing that he has so much Hong Kong capital behind him, I think I should have worried too much.
While eating, Zhang Yuan looked around.
It was discovered that Li Xiaowan had already run away with Chen Kun.
Not only did I fail to get anything done today, I also discovered that it was completely impossible to get anything done.
Teacher Li had no intention of staying any longer.
Especially after Chen Kun’s “talk therapy” by Zhang Yuan and Xiao Yanzi’s “backstabbing”, he is now feeling uneasy.
In addition, after seeing Zhang Yuan setting up a company with so many big bosses, Kun Kun began to doubt his life even more.
Seeing that he had a low IQ and was trying to develop into a "very smart" person, Li Xiaowan quickly pulled him away.
Don't rebel again later.
After dinner, just like in previous times, there was an unlimited supply of drinks at the bar.
Zhang Yuan sat on a high chair, welcoming wave after wave of guests who came to chat with him.
"Congratulations." Zhang Ziyi came to celebrate with a glass of wine.
"According to the movie Rush Hour, we are colleagues who worked together at the same time."
Zhang Ziyi was trying to get close to him.
She was a little envious when she saw the release of Rush Hour 3 recently.
Although I starred in the second part, it was not released in the country.
And now that she is not very popular in Hollywood due to the failure of "Memoirs of a Geisha", she is particularly envious of Zhang Yuan's title of "Little Bruce Lee" overseas.
"If we count according to "Night Banquet", we are still old lovers." Zhang Yuan also joked in response.
"Hehehe, yes."
As the two of them were chatting, Jiang Zhiqiang came over with a girl.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang." Zhang Ziyi hurriedly greeted him.
"Hello... Zhang Yuan, let me introduce you." Boss Jiang pointed to the tall girl next to him with a shy smile.
"This is the heroine of Lust, Caution, Tang Wei."
"Hello." Miss Tang, wearing a floral dress, extended her hand to shake.
Zhang Yuan took a look and thought that “Teacher Wang”’s food was just average.
This woman was Tian Yu's girlfriend before she starred in Lust, Caution.
But because he couldn't accept his girlfriend shooting such a large-scale video, the two broke up.
Just like Deng Chao and Hao Lei back then.
Tang Wei's first love is Zhu Yuchen, a famous mama's boy in the Chinese film and television industry.
He is the one who played Huazi in "Struggle".
With his mother's explosive values, this guy will never be well.
Perhaps after experiencing the "torture" from him and his mother, the thoughts of those actresses were sublimated, and they all married well later.
Finding this person is like buying a collection of wrong questions. If you avoid this type of questions from now on, you will live a happy life.
Zhang Yuan looked at it carefully.
You said Tang Weiduomei...not really.
This face is easy to remember and has a sense of story, making it suitable for art films.
As for the figure.
Although this person was dressed, in Zhang Yuan's eyes he was naked.
Like everyone else, I have seen this person’s “masterpiece”.
It can't be said to be a foregone conclusion, but it's just mediocre.
"Hello." Zhang Ziyi took the initiative to greet Tang Wei: "I am looking forward to your success in Mr. Jiang's masterpiece."
"Thank you." Tang Wei responded with a smile.
I felt very honored and even a little flattered to be praised by a senior and a big star like Zhang Ziyi.
But Zhang Yuan, who was standing by, saw a hint of hostility in Zhang Ziyi's eyes.
She also competed for the role of the female lead in "Lust, Caution".
It is certain that Zhang Ziyi will be an international star. She has an ordinary figure, but a face that is suitable for the camera and has a sense of story.
The two people's positioning in the entertainment industry is actually conflicting.
International star Zhang is not a good person at all, and is not much better than Zhao Yanzi.
Zhang Yuan looked at the silly-looking Tang Wei and thought that this woman didn't seem to be very intelligent.
His eyes are a little empty, the type where you can see the hippocampus through the pupils.
She didn't even know what she was getting into.
After all, every gift from fate has already been secretly marked with a price.
"Lust, Caution" made her famous, but also almost ruined her.
After chatting with the two of them for a while, Li Xiaoran quietly came over from the side.
"You said you wanted to talk to me alone. Did you forget about me?"
"Uh... there are a lot of people here today, and there are a lot of guests to entertain, so I don't have time."
He really had forgotten about this person.
Hiss...Zhang Yuan shuddered all over.
He suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
Because along with Dabai came two extremely sharp gazes... (End of this chapter)
