After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 448: Kill Heshen and fill the national treasury?

After Li Mingyang made his wolf-like declaration, he left the company and went to Haiyue Pavilion near the company, where they often had dinner together.

The rest of the time was left to Wu Zhikui.

Li Mingyang advocated that everyone leave.

Wu Zhikui will stay in the special effects department of Mingyang Entertainment.

The impact of major film and television companies on Mingyang Entertainment is still very large and has shaken its core.

The reason why I haven't left yet.

But once the concerns leave, they will never come back.

Instead of this, Li Mingyang might as well just let it go and dispel everyone's doubts.

At 5:30 in the evening, more than 20 cars and dozens of electric vehicles stopped in front of Haiyue Pavilion.

Old Wu brought people from Mingyang Entertainment to Haiyue Pavilion to attend the anniversary celebration.

The people who attended this meeting were basically people related to content creation, and there were no managers.

After the anniversary dinner started, Li Mingyang went to each table to drink a few glasses of wine, bragging and boosting his morale.

Wait until Shirahama calls and says he's at the door.

Li Mingyang picked up the wine glass, toasted everyone, and left.

Wu Zhikui sent Li Mingyang out and then returned to Haiyue Pavilion.

Watching everyone arm in arm, drinking, bragging, and imagining the future.

But those futures are your own futures.

The human heart is selfish.

He had already deeply realized this.

After the bouquet of flowers, the crew behind the scenes was emptied out, leaving only myself, Li Ming, and Xiong Yan.

Most of those behind the escape were his friends.

The main reason why the company has been able to survive until now is that Li Mingyang's reputation is unmatched.

He actually can't control these people anymore.

A pack of wolves!
They don't even need Li Mingyang to teach them, they know what to do on their own.

These people will not show mercy. After all, they are from the academic school. As long as they can achieve results, there are plenty of opportunities for them.

"Oh, Old Wu, how do you manage them usually? They seem to be too confident." Xiao Yang came back with an empty wine glass and said.

“It’s always been like this.”

"Each of them has such a unique personality..." Xiao Yang laughed.

"If they were all here, you wouldn't be able to stay here. They would squeeze you to death."

"Found it." Xiao Yang scratched his head, "Old Wu, what if they all leave? There has to be someone to support the company..."

"Just recruit again."

Xiao Yang said, "In general, they are all new people. We can have another campus recruitment."

"That's about it. I'll leave this important task to you."

"give it to me?"

"Wait for me to notify you."

Xiao Yang nodded and looked at the group of ambitious young people.

Before he came back, he was very much looking forward to the inside of Mingyang Entertainment. After he came back, he found that Mingyang Entertainment was not quite what he expected.

They are all like wolves!

All the confidence was given by One Punch Man and the Witch!
In fact... there is no shortage of people in the circle. There are plenty of people, but what is lacking are people who can create good content.

And Li Mingyang is a genius in this regard!
A unique super genius in the domestic entertainment industry!
……

The moon is round.

Li Mingyang and Bai Bin came to the Bouquet Hotel.

The Weathering With You auditions will begin tomorrow, and the executive VIP floors from 26th to 30th floors are already fully booked.

Li Mingyang asked Bai Bin to go to his room and continue working on the project schedule, while he went to the 25th floor and came to the meeting room of Huashu Entertainment.

When I opened the door of the conference room, I was filled with thick smoke, which was quite choking.

When Wang Changtian, Zhang Zhao and Yu Dong saw him come in, they all smiled from ear to ear.

After Li Mingyang sat down, Bao Bei'er made a cup of tea for him and roasted a cigar for him.

Liu Yan is a failure...

In such an important occasion, Wang Changtian would rather let Bao Bei'er participate instead of her.

After a brief greeting, everyone began to discuss the investment issue of Weathering With You.

"How is your money going?" Wang Changtian asked.

"It's not easy. They all require me to pledge my shares. Mr. Cai from Alibaba offers the best ratio." Li Mingyang shook his head.

"These big capitalists are like this. When they have praised enough, they will start to reap the benefits." Zhang Zhao said with a smile.

"We have a suggestion." Wang Changtian said with a meaningful smile.

"What advice?"

"Your overseas investment is 300 million, how much is it actually?"

Wang Changtian didn't answer, Yu Dong smiled with a big smile on his face.

"At least 100 million."

"So the 200 million is empty?"

"You want to wash rice?" Li Mingyang raised his eyebrows, "How much commission?"

As soon as Li Mingyang finished speaking, everyone else laughed.

"I'll just say it, Director Li will agree."

"This is the only way forward. Great directors should be aware of this. Otherwise, they won't be able to continue on this path and only get a small share of the box office revenue."

The film industry is the most rampant area of ​​fraud.

Even if a great immortal came, he would not be able to figure it out.

Even the higher-ups turned a blind eye, both at home and abroad...

After all, it’s so hard for movies to make money!

It is difficult for commercial films to make money, let alone art films.

In 2010, the total domestic film box office exceeded 100 billion yuan.

The total box office revenue of domestic films was more than 60 billion yuan.

But no one knows what the total investment in domestic films is throughout the year... Because it is impossible to calculate, many films do not disclose their investment amounts.

It’s not easy to make domestic films!
Without hot money coming in, relying on government subsidies will not be able to support the market.

The above requirement is very simple, just box office!

Box office is the hard currency of the world film market.

Realization of commercial value.

Yu Dong and Zhang Zhao will share the 200 million vacancy, and in return, each of them will contribute 10 million.

10%.

“It’s too low.”

"The ghost field is only 10%."

It's not that easy to get box office...

10%?

The cinema is not owned by your family!
Li Mingyang disagreed with the price and wanted to negotiate, but Wang Changtian waved his hand and nodded in agreement.

After agreeing on the vacancy, the two left satisfied.

“This is too cheap.”

"The background is strong, there is nothing we can do."

"You don't have to pay a penny, but people still give you money. That's already pretty good." Li Mingyang took a puff of his cigar and said with a smile.

"It's the same everywhere." Wang Changtian picked up the white porcelain cup, blew on it, and took a sip of tea. "They have 20 million, and I can only get another 10 million by selling everything I have, so there is still a difference of 70 million."

"I've gone to Korea to talk to them. The price they charge for dramas is a bit low, so I can't sell them at the right price." Li Mingyang ran to Korea excitedly, one for the witch, and the other for selling the drama.

"We can sell it for 20,000 US dollars per episode. Our purchase price has always been the highest in Asia."

"The money is small, but the work is hard. It also depends on the ratings in the local market." Li Mingyang scratched his head. "The Legend of Zhen Huan is too long and they don't want to buy it."

It's a pain that he can't sell the two trump cards in his hand at a good price. He was also counting on the online copyrights of these two dramas to make some money back.

The main reason is that these two dramas have not been broadcast.

Bu Bu will not be aired until mid-September, while Legend of Zhen Huan will have to wait until the end of the year.

Weathering with You can be used as a promotional film for Shanghai.

But the setting of the male protagonist's pistol can only be used in the Miracle City setting where spies play house.

This way of making money was killed.

As for the ads…

If You Are the One 2 was so ugly that the audiences are now very disgusted with product placement.

Transformers 3 has crazy product placement, but it is still very popular.

It is an exception, an exception all over the world.

Even Hollywood itself doesn't dare to learn.

Weathering With You is pursuing box office success, so in this regard...it’s better to wait until the filming is finished before talking to advertisers about sponsorship.

"Does Youfeng Film and Television City have no money?"

"Dividends can only be distributed at the end of the year..." Wang Changtian sighed.

Come and discuss.

Both were heavily in debt.

Still have to borrow money.

Borrowing money is too painful. Either they want a share of the movie or shares.

Li Mingyang finally understood why Huayi pledged so many shares when it could have raised money...

I don't even want to borrow money! I'm just thinking about your stocks.

After talking for more than an hour without reaching any conclusion, Wang Changtian had a meeting to attend, so he left first.

Bao Bei'er also left.

Li Mingyang was worried, but he had no idea what to do. He couldn't give up the benefits that were already in his hands.

Alibaba and Penguin offered the best price. Alibaba lent 1 million yuan and gave million yuan, but wanted % of the shares.

Penguin is willing to invest directly, but it wants to bet 10 billion box office and % of the shares! It is rare to get such a good opportunity, how can Penguin let go?

Both companies are major shareholders of Guangxian.

If I don’t take the money from the two companies, I can only find other ways to cash in.

Li Mingyang really didn't expect that the price for washing rice would be so low.

Not even 30%, not even 20%.

2 million, 20%, that’s 4000 million.

4000 million is more than enough to last until the end of filming.

Li Mingyang was thinking of a solution in the conference room, smoking one cigar after another, but he couldn't think of any good idea.

Click...

The door suddenly opened, and Wang Changtian came back. Bang!
"Fuck it, I'm the one who falsified the accounts!" Wang Changtian angrily threw a black leather document on the table.

"Calm down..."

"Look! We are being played for fools!"

Li Mingyang opened the file doubtfully. There was nothing special on the first page, it was the financial statement for the first quarter of Qingchun Guangguang. There was nothing special on the second page, it was the financial statement for the second quarter.

The third page starts with various photos...

Photos of Yang Tianzhen eating with others, getting in cars with others, and entering villas with others...

"Who are these people?" Li Mingyang asked.

“Um…I forgot you don’t know them. Some are executives of Huayi, some are editors-in-chief of the fashion industry, and some are members of the advertisers alliance.”

Li Mingyang nodded and continued to flip forward.

Contracts circled in red appeared prominently.

Li Mingyang is not very sensitive to the people in the photos because he doesn't know them, but he is very sensitive to the details and amount of the contract.

Especially since these contracts are both yin and yang, the contrast is quite obvious.

Anyone with a little common sense can see the problem.

"Fuck! This TM is over 30 million short! Where's the money?"

"Yanzi and Bingbing will be here soon. They introduced Yang Tianzhen. They must give an explanation!"

"Kill Heshen and replenish the national treasury?" Li Mingyang suggested.

"Let's take a look at the situation first." Wang Changtian sat on the chair and said with a wry smile: "None of the Four Dans and Two Bings is simple. The background is very complicated. Even if they offer to pay you, don't take it, because you don't know who gave you the money."

"It's okay to take it."

"Then it depends on whether you want to see the people behind them."

"If they dare to give, I dare to take."

Wang Changtian smiled but said nothing.

“Is this document reliable?”

"Do you know that paparazzi Zhuo Wei?"

"know."

"I bought the black material for Deng Chao, Zhuo Wei buys one and gets one free."

"..."

……

Ten minutes later, Yan Zi and Bing Bing came.

"Director Li, long time no see. Come and give me a hug." Yan Zi ran over shouting as she came in, her eyes shining green, and she hugged Li Mingyang directly.

This made Li Mingyang roll his eyes.

Yan Zi just hugged him, and then wanted to hug Wang Changtian. Wang Changtian seemed to be very experienced and just held up the thermos cup and drank tea.

Seeing this, Yan Zi smiled, pulled out the chair next to Li Mingyang and sat down.

Oh my god, can drinking tea be used like that?

"Director Li, President Wang, this has nothing to do with me! Yang Tianzhen is Bingbing's person, so if you want to blame someone, blame Bingbing." Yan Zi said aggressively.

Fan Binbin, wearing a black dress that exposed most of her body, sat opposite awkwardly, as if she was being interrogated.

"Director Li, President Wang, I really had no idea what Yang Tianzhen did... Now that things have come to this, I'll be honest. She is indeed my person, but I also wanted her to help Guangguang manage the artists well. I really didn't know that she was such a traitor!" Fan Binbin raised his hands and spoke with emotion. As he spoke, he even shed tears.

Yan Zi quietly handed a pack of tissues to Li Mingyang.

Are you okay? You two are just acting like a double act here.

Yan Zi was poking at him with the tissue, which was quite annoying. Li Mingyang took the tissue and threw it directly at her, but he used too much force and it fell to the ground.

Fan Binbin picked up the pack of tissues, pulled out a piece of tissue, wiped his tears, and said hesitantly, "Thank you, Director Li."

Wang Changtian couldn't stand it anymore. He actually wanted to get money from Yan Zi, but Yan Zi directly distanced herself from the matter and put all the blame on Fan Binbin.

Swallow doesn't give money.

Fan Binbin is in trouble too. He is a man who loves money very much.

"The water is gone. I'll go get some." Wang Changtian left immediately.

Li Mingyang shook his head secretly. These two women are not easy to deal with.

In their eyes, Shishi Mimi is just a little girl...

Snapped!
Li Mingyang threw the black leather document into Fan Binbin's hand.

This time the force was just right.

"Boss Wang and I trust Yang Tianzhen so much because of your relationship. What does she mean by doing this? Did we treat her badly? Or does she look down on us and treat us as fools?"

Fan Binbin actually didn’t know how much money Yang Tianzhen had cheated from Guangguang, but Yan Zi said that it was better for one person to bear the pain than for two people to suffer, and no matter what happened, she would do her best to protect him.

After looking through the documents, Fan Binbin was completely confused. Damn, a difference of tens of millions, how dare you do that! Li Mingyang and Wang Changtian are both experts in accounting!

"Where did this document come from? Is it reliable? Tens of millions... She doesn't have the guts to do that, does she?"

"There's no problem with the way I came." The door was suddenly pushed open and Wang Changtian came back.

The speed was so fast that the three people in the room were scared.

"She was in Shanghai yesterday. I called her and tricked her into coming here..." Fan Binbin took out his cell phone and tried to lure her over.

Fortunately, Yang Tianzhen is still in Shanghai.

after an hour.

Yang Tianzhen, exhausted, walked into the meeting room.

Although she didn't know what had happened, Yan Zi, Bin Bin, Wang Changtian and Li Mingyang were in the room.

The former boss and the current boss were all together.

Based on her professional intuition, she felt that she had done something wrong, and then she didn't wait for anyone to speak.

Yang Tianzhen knelt down immediately.

"Director Li, I was wrong... I was wrong. I will never dare to do it again."

"..."*4
……

Yang Tianzhen knelt on the ground and flipped through the black leather documents. The more he read, the more frightened he became. When he came to the Yin-Yang contract, he immediately shouted, "I don't have it! This contract is fake. No, the one next to it is real. That one is a fake contract. I'm not a fool. How could I have falsely reported five or six times the amount?"

"Is the photo real?" Wang Changtian raised his hand to tell the other three not to speak.

"Really..." Yang Tianzhen shook her body unnaturally.

"Okay, just admit it." Wang Changtian opened the door. There seemed to be someone next to him, handing him a black box.

Bang!
Wang Changtian closed the door.

He opened the box, took out piles of documents, lined them up on the table, and spread them out for seven or eight meters.

"These are the contracts you signed! Get up and check to see if they are correct!"

Yang Tianzhen hesitated for a while, then stood up and flipped through the documents on the table. After flipping through more than a dozen documents, she did not continue flipping through them. She nodded and said, "I signed all of them... These contracts were reviewed by the finance department! Every single item can be matched!"

"Okay, since you admit it, how do you explain these?" Wang Changtian picked up three documents from the back and threw them on the table.

One of them fell to the ground.

Yang Tianzhen picked up the document on the ground, flipped it open and took a look, then knelt down and cried hysterically: "Boss Wang, this is what I signed, I am sorry for your trust! But the document Li signed is fake, I didn't get that much money, I just..."

"I don't want to confront people about every account. They also have to do the accounts. This is against the rules." Wang Changtian took a sip of tea. "Since you say it's fake, then let me ask you, who do you think framed you?"

Yang Tianzhen lowered her head and bit her thumb so hard that it started bleeding and it felt like it was about to break off!

"Boss Wang, is this Zhuo Wei?"

Zhuo Wei wanted to take a photo of Lin Chi-lin drinking with others, and Yang Tianzhen happened to see them, so she sent a message to Zhuo Wei.

Then the photo was not taken and someone discovered it.

Zhuo Wei ran away, and his two younger brothers were beaten and sent to the hospital...

Afterwards, Zhuo Wei asked her for medical expenses.

If your people are not good enough, it’s none of my business.

Yang Tianzhen didn’t give it.

The two have not worked together since then.

The shooting angle of the photo is quite paparazzi-like, and Yang Tianzhen feels that it was Zhuo Wei who did it.

Wang Changtian nodded, then knocked on the table. "Within three days, I want to see all the real contracts and the money. Otherwise, you'd better get ready to go in."

Hard-earned money! I just took a little bit!
Yan Zi and Fan Binbin exchanged glances with each other frantically, and Yang Tianzhen had no choice but to nod and say "hmm" with a bitter face.

After dealing with Yang Tianzhen, Wang Changtian waved his hands in annoyance and told Yang Tianzhen to get out.

"Mr. Wang, the paparazzi Zhuo Wei cannot be trusted." Yan Zi waited until Yang Tianzhen left and said in a low voice.

"Paparazzi, I only believe half of it." Wang Changtian raised his teacup and took a sip of tea.

Li Mingyang, Yan Zi, and Fan Binbin looked at Wang Changtian strangely, wondering if there was still tea in it? The thermos cup wasn't that big...

"Mr. Wang, it's nothing. I'm leaving first." Fan Binbin said.

"Ah."

It’s better for Fan Binbin to run first.

Yan Zi was not in a hurry to leave. She smiled and said, "Director Li, President Wang, are you short of money?"

"Don't bother yourself." Wang Changtian said.

"We are all family, so why worry about it?" Yan Zi rolled her eyes. "Boss Ma is very optimistic about Guangguang. You should talk about it. One hundred million shares and one hundred million investment are not a small amount."

"I would rather gamble." Wang Changtian said calmly.

Alibaba and Penguin are both scrambling for shares in Guangxian, and almost all of Guangxian’s shares are in Wang Changtian’s hands, including the part that Li Mingyang bet against.

Yan Zi nodded vigorously and stopped talking about this topic, but started talking about Youth.

With NT$5000 in Those Years, the film was a huge success in Taiwan, with an extremely exaggerated box office of over NT$4 million. It is currently the number one in Taiwan and the second in film history!
Yan Zi feels that youth films are a very suitable subject for making a small profit with a big investment, and they are also very easy to create stars...

What I said before is quite forward-looking.

Later, Yan Zi started to set her sights on Li Mingyang and was even willing to sign a minimum guarantee agreement of 5 million.

This is more forward-looking.

The filming of "Swallow's Youth" has not started yet and is still in preparation.

I've been polishing the script.

At this rate, the film may not even be released next year.

It is estimated to take 13 years.

Internet capital has entered the domestic entertainment industry, ticket subsidies have become popular, and Hollywood has bombarded the domestic film market.

The film industry actually has the ability to generate huge box office sales.

Two years later, a box office of 2 million is not a difficult task.

"I won't play the male lead." Li Mingyang refused.

"You should make the movie first, then we can talk about this matter. How can we talk about it when there is nothing?" Wang Changtian said impatiently. It seemed that he had been harassed many times, otherwise Wang Changtian would not be so obvious.

Yan Zi smiled and said, "Director Li, I can pay you in one lump sum and I can give it to you right now."

"I really don't have time. I guess I'll be in Hollywood when you start filming."

"Are you really going?" Yan Zi asked in surprise.

"There's nothing to doubt about this. I've already signed the contract. Why else do you think Weathering With You has such good conditions?"

Yan Zi said with a sad face, "What a pity! Where can I find such an excellent, handsome, young actor like Director Li?"

"It's just that my acting skills are not that good, haha!" Li Mingyang laughed at himself.

"Being handsome is all that matters!" Yan Zi laughed.
