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

Chapter 604: Flowers bloom inside the wall and fragrance spreads outside the wall, CJ Entertainment's external director

On the evening of September 9, a group of unknown internet users released the truth about the Cheongdam-dong slum incident online.

The birth of the Korean chaebol was revealed once again.

At the same time, a large amount of factual evidence proves that Li Mingyang made an indispensable contribution to the chaebol's development of the Cheongdam-dong slum.

Without his influence, the Korean government would never have agreed to develop the Cheongdam-dong slums and promote the entertainment economy.

The information of these water armies was very confidential, and they even exaggerated the planning map of Cheongdam-dong and the benefits obtained by Li Mingyang and posted them online.

Faced with these powerful accusations, Li Mingyang didn't know how to clear himself for a moment.

Most of the information revealed by the water army is true, except for the benefits he received, which are fake.

The chaebol did give him a building as a gift, but he refused to accept it. Instead, he paid 5,500 yuan out of his own pocket to expand and raise the height of the Bouquet Technology Building, converting it into apartments as resettlement housing, which he provided free of charge to the homeless.

Because of this incident, the next day, Li Mingyang went to see the top leader and was treated like a criminal by a group of people and questioned for the entire morning.

You are not allowed to leave and must stay in the arranged hotel.

And available on call.

Just when Li Mingyang was at a loss, Wang Changtian and Boss Zhao were busy outside trying to help Li Mingyang with his relationships.

Li Meijin, who had just arrived in Yanbei, didn't even go to see her father. She went straight to the government office building, met with the leader and talked for several hours. Finally, she took Li Mingyang out of the hotel under strict security.

"When are you going to return to Korea?"

In the back seat of the Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle, Li Meijin handed the cut cigars and cigar spray gun to Li Mingyang.

Li Mingyang lit up his cigar, opened the car window, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Is the matter resolved?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that someone wants to mess with you."

"Who did it?"

"There are a lot of people... I only knew that Wanda and Huayi were very dissatisfied with you, but I didn't expect you to have so many enemies..." Li Meijin was also quite surprised when she guaranteed Li Mingyang. She couldn't understand why she was being targeted so badly...

At the same time, I liked Li Mingyang more.

At an international exchange meeting, Li Mingyang directly criticized the mainland film industry. His out-of-place performance made Li Meijin very pleased that her investment was not in vain.

She originally just wanted Li Mingyang to give an explanation, but she didn't expect him to fire shots and beat people up, leaving her no room at all.

However, the bigger surprise was yet to come. She checked through her own connections and talked to her boss face to face, and found that Li Mingyang simply couldn't survive in the mainland...

There are too many criticisms, his character is problematic, and his stance is also problematic.

He has offended all the Internet capitals again, and too many people want to remove him from the Tokyo University film circle.

If she had known that Li Mingyang was so unwelcome in the mainland, she wouldn't have to be so suspicious and worry that Li Mingyang would run away halfway.

"I can't swallow this...it's all my inner demon..."

……

On the evening of September 9, CJ Entertainment held an emergency press conference and publicly announced that Li Mingyang had become a shareholder of CJ Entertainment, becoming the only Dongda Foreign Language Director in the history of CJ Entertainment.

And this is also the reason why Li Meijin was able to bring Li Mingyang out.

The news quickly spread back to China, and the entire domestic entertainment industry was shocked.

Many people find it hard to believe that Li Mingyang has become a shareholder of CJ Entertainment!

in the country, this is equivalent to jumping from a director to a shareholder and senior executive of China Film.

Yanbei, Changan Club.

"I was wondering why Gong Yu actively sponsored the international exchange meeting in order to bring Li Mingyang back. It turns out that he has already made it into the top management of CJ Entertainment." Wang Dajun said sarcastically.

"This is a good thing! The press release we bought hits the nail on the head! This guy's stance is really problematic!" Wang Xiaolei said happily.

"Li Houzi is doing better in Korea than I thought..." Wang Dajun said with a dissatisfied look.

"That little place in the corner of Korea is just so-so no matter how good it is. CJ is the king in Korea, but it is nothing in China." Wang Xiaolei rubbed his hands excitedly, "Li Mingyang, the biggest threat, finally killed himself. He caused such a big incident. The higher-ups have given up on him. The future belongs to us."

Wang Dajun had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

But Li Mingyang himself was unwilling to come back and caused such a big trouble in Korea, which was rejected by the higher-ups in a meeting.

These are all great news!
But it’s ridiculous that Li Mingyang reached a high position in the Korean entertainment industry in less than a year in Korea. The Korean entertainment industry is extremely xenophobic.

"Li Houzi must have some conspiracy. We can't take it lightly." Wang Dajun said in a deep voice.

"Hey, big brother, don't look down on him too much. He's in such a desperate state now, how can he make any more trouble? He's been crushed by the Five Finger Mountain!" Wang Xiaolei opened his palms and slapped his thighs hard. His facial features were squeezed together with a smile. He was so happy.

Unlike his brother, Wang Dajun always felt that something was wrong.

"The forced demolition of Cheongdam-dong is related to Li Mingyang. Who revealed it? Has anyone found out?" Wang Dajun asked after taking a sip of red wine and chewing on a dark red walnut.

"Too many people know about it, so there's no way to check. Haha, he's done anyway, and he won't be back for a few years. Let's work hard this year and get into real estate next year. Real estate makes a lot of money! I have already contacted everyone!" said Wang Xiaolei.

Wang Dajun frowned slightly, "A man who is arrogant must be destroyed, so be low-key."

"I understand, I understand!" Wang Xiaolei said this, but he didn't take it seriously.

Wang Xiaolei is mainly responsible for the company's daily operations and external public relations. He is the most exposed boss in the domestic entertainment industry, no doubt about it.

The reason why we are where we are today is because we took advantage of every opportunity.

Wang Dajun can be said to be a big player in the domestic entertainment industry who is best at capital operations and innovative gameplay.

The bosses of the three domestic film companies that were listed first are all extremely powerful and the best of the best.

They are both pioneers of domestic entertainment thinking and capital thinking.

When Wang Dajun heard that Li Mingyang had become a shareholder of CJ Entertainment, he felt vaguely uneasy, but he couldn't figure it out.

It was not until Lao Jia came and told him something that he suddenly realized why he was feeling uneasy.

Wang Changtian actually sold all of his shares in Light Media's Shanghai Science Fiction Film and Television City to Wanda.

Originally Li Mingyang also wanted to sell it.

But the demons disagreed.

The Shanghai Science Fiction Film and Television City is the largest film studio in mainland China with a total investment of over 10 billion yuan.

Shanghai takes 20%, LeTV 15%, Guangxian 15%, and Huashua %.

Light Media was sold to Wanda at a low price of 18 billion.

one stone two bird!
Buying out Wanda solved the dilemma faced by Guangxian.

Huge cash flow, focused overseas.

This is the plan, it’s very awesome.

But this plan would cost at least tens of billions in losses, and Wang Changtian didn't have the courage to do so. Only Li Mingyang could convince him.

"Wang Changtian is so dishonest. He sold it to Wanda instead of me." Jia said angrily, "Wanda has received such a huge benefit. They will definitely not target Guangguang anymore. You can't expect Wanda to suppress Guangguang in the future."

The Shanghai Science Fiction Film and Television City will be the filming base for The Three-Body Problem in the future. It will be linked with The Three-Body Problem in the future. Many senior leaders have inspected the city, and all the funds for this project have been approved by the banks.

It is a project that is bound to succeed, and with the leadership's high attention, the future revenue could be far more than 1.8 billion.

"18 billion... This is too much of a loss. Why did Wang Changtian cash out so much money?" Wang Xiaolei asked puzzledly.

"Without the sci-fi film and television city project, Guangxian's stock price will fall..."

"Wang Changtian and Li Mingyang are two grasshoppers on the same rope, they are bound to do something big." Old Jia's face changed, and he looked at the Wang brothers with an unfathomable smile, "Li Mingyang blasted Director Feng at the exchange meeting. His intention is very clear. He wants to destroy Huayi. The two Mr. Wangs need foreign aid who share the same hatred for the enemy! Many people want Li Mingyang to be finished, and even more people want Huayi to be finished!"

A naked threat.

Wang Dajun put on a flattering smile and played Tai Chi with Lao Jia. Of course, allies were needed, but there was no talk of shares.

Lao Jia didn't threaten anymore and just kept laughing, which made Wang Dajun feel uneasy and Wang Xiaolei cursed in his heart.

After Wang Dajun and Wang Xiaolei left.

Zhang Zhao exhaled a puff of smoke, pointed at the gate and said, "In my opinion, we should join forces with Guangguang to attack Huayi. These two guys from Huayi won't accept my toast, so they should drink the penalty wine."

Old Jia shook his head. "Hua Yi is too difficult to deal with. When Li Mingyang was here, he could only suppress it."

"Huayi is not hurt, but they will not surrender. The valuation of LeTV Pictures is getting lower and lower."

Lao Jia picked up the red wine glass and said slowly, "It's muddy water now, let's talk about it when the situation becomes clear."

Zhang Zhao nodded, chatted with Lao Jia for a few more words, and left first.

Lao Jia wants to reap the benefits of celebrity IP, but the current situation is too chaotic, mainly because Li Mingyang often comes up with all kinds of strange tricks, and Lao Jia does not want to act rashly and waste money.

With 1.8 billion in cash, there are so many things you can do.

On the way home, Lao Jia and Jack Ma made a phone call to brag. Both of them were watching the show, wanting to see what Li Mingyang would do so that they could take advantage of the situation.

The domestic film and television circles are not monolithic, but they are all very wary of Internet capital, especially the two listed film companies, Huayi and Guangxian.

Huayi is very powerful and it won’t do them any good.

The thing that Jack Ma regretted most was that he believed Wang Dajun's lies and forced Li Mingyang to leave. Once Li Mingyang left, Guangguang was no match for Huayi.

Huayi won over the Beijing circle, suppressed dissidents, consolidated its position and became a veritable leader.

However, Jack Ma did not enjoy the benefits brought by Huayi. Wang Dajun pretended to obey the company but did what he wanted to do behind the scenes.

The things he asked to be done either fell through halfway or the people who stood there were all rotten fish and rotten shrimps.

Jack Ma felt that the money and resources he gave at the time were simply feeding the dog.

Li Mingyang is just a rebellious person, but Li Mingyang can really help Alibaba make money, and he was there in person to take part in the event, which gave him enough face.

With such a comparison, Jack Ma would like Huayi to go bankrupt.

As for Lao Jia, he even wanted to swallow up Huayi. There were so many stars, so many story materials, and all he could see was money.

The two people who had the same idea had a great conversation, and finally made an appointment to have tea together tomorrow.

Jack Ma hung up the phone, got out of the car, and, surrounded by a group of entourage, walked into the newly opened club of Wanda Lao Wang to show his support.

A group of business leaders were drinking and chatting happily in the well-arranged and magnificent European-style palace.

Jack Ma chatted with Lao Wang for a while. Originally, he had no interest in the Shanghai Science Fiction Film and Television City, but when he heard Lao Wang bragging about building another science fiction film and television city in Yanbei, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.

The science fiction film and television city is actually the Three-Body Studios.

But it is still in its infancy, and no one dares to call the science fiction film and television city the Three-Body Film and Television City.

The higher-ups were paying close attention to the situation, so a group of bigwigs went to Shanghai to inspect the work and then turned around to the Science Fiction Film and Television City to check on the progress and ask about the progress of the Three-Body Project.

If these three bodies are filmed well, everyone will be happy.

If you don’t take good photos, you’ll be in trouble.

This is not an easy job.

"Lao Wang, you are just bragging here, will LeTV agree? You don't have the copyright of the Three-Body Problem, so don't start with a bang and then end with a whimper."

The person who dared to say that Lao Wang was bragging was none other than Lenovo's Lao Liu, Jack Ma's staunch ally.

"Hey, I'm helping him make money, how can he not be willing?" Old Wang clinked glasses with Old Liu with a smile.

"That's hard to say!" Lao Liu said indifferently.

"Haha! Don't worry, the land has been approved, we can play together."

When Old Liu heard this, his bitter face suddenly turned into a smiling face.

Old Liu laughed and Jack Ma was speechless.

With Lao Liu on the side, it's obvious that Lao Wang doesn't want to play with him anymore!
"There's no news about the Three-Body Project. I've only seen a few press conferences."

"The project is always moving forward, there is no rush."

"Finish the filming sooner and show the faces sooner. I think Li Mingyang is not serious at all. Why not change the director? Besides, that guy is too young, and it will be difficult for him to capture the flavor of The Three-Body Problem. How about changing him to Zhang Yimou?" Lao Liu suggested.

Compared with Li Mingyang, a number of business leaders prefer Zhang Yimou.

"I just invested in the shares, but my opinion on the movie has no final say." Lao Wang waved his hand and perfunctorily replied with a smile.

The Three Body Problem caters to their preferences.

Just like football.

Just like Lao Sha likes to play basketball, the badminton court becomes a basketball court.

Jack Ma suddenly felt very lonely. Although he didn't like Li Mingyang, he let the aging Zhang Yimou make a science fiction movie that was ahead of its time.

This is not a joke!
Li Mingyang is good at scheming and sophistry, brave in innovation, and most importantly, he is young and has unlimited possibilities.

In his opinion, it is the most suitable place to film The Three-Body Problem.

"One project, multiple preparations. Who says there can only be one director? I think it would be better if Zhang Yimou and Li Mingyang worked together to shoot the film." Jack Ma suddenly said.

This idea was quickly approved by a group of bigwigs, who thought it was very appropriate.

When Jack Ma saw that his plan had succeeded, he smiled like a child.

Li Mingyang and Zhang Yimou collaborate on a movie?

What are you thinking? How is it possible!

Everyone in this room is a movie newbie! It's no accident that Hollywood is cheating Wall Street!

In terms of influence, Li Mingyang cannot be compared with Zhang Yimou.

It's a real disadvantage to co-produce a movie with Zhang Yimou.

It worked, and most of the credit goes to Zhang Yimou.

After losing, Zhang Yimou shut up, and those intellectuals immediately put the blame on Li Mingyang.

Jack Ma has a love-hate relationship with Li Mingyang, and as a result, he has a better understanding of the film industry.

The more capital involved in the Three-Body project, the more complex the composition, and the more difficult it is to film.

Li Mingyang wanted to be the director and shoot the film safely, so in the end he had to beg him, and he could only beg him.

After the party.

Jack Ma asked Cai Zhongxin to ride in the same car with him.

"Ali is a shareholder of Guangxian after all. Wang Changtian cleared out the shares of Guangxian's science fiction film city without even notifying us. This is very unfair. We will send a notice to Guangxian tomorrow that Ali will conduct an audit."

"I just checked it last month..." Cai Chongxin said with a smile.

"Keep checking."

Cai Zhongxin nodded. What Light Media did this time was indeed not fair. Originally, Alibaba had a stake in The Three-Body Problem and Three-Body Cinemas, but now they are all gone.

"You said that guy beat up Feng Kuzi and cashed out nearly 2 billion. What's his next step?"

"Just one way, FBTV."

Jack Ma nodded. "All the movies Li Mingyang made made huge profits. He never had to worry about money. But FBTV was very expensive..."

"FBTV is just an empty shell. It has not penetrated into the Korean entertainment industry. In terms of maximizing capital interests, Li Mingyang's best option is to sell it to the three of us, or to attract us to invest... Li Mingyang has no means to counter CJ Entertainment. He cannot control it."

Jack Ma looked at Cai Zhongxin in surprise and said, "You know a lot about this!"

Cai Zhongxin's words were short but to the point, and Jack Ma didn't even realize it.

"You ask this question often..." Cai Zhongxin adjusted his glasses and said with a wry smile, "You've been paying too much attention to the entertainment industry this year..."

Jack Ma raised a finger, "We must hurry, we must hurry! If Li Mingyang really transfers funds to Bangzi, we will ignore him. What does Tangren say? Will they accept it?"

"Cai Yinong is too stubborn and rejected our offer three times... It's not easy to deal with..." Cai Zhongxin saw Jack Ma's bad face and said thoughtfully, "iQiyi and Penguin are both in talks."

“What’s our price level been?”

"Five hundred million, 10%."

This price is already very high, doubling Tangren’s valuation.

Jack Ma raised his arms and covered his mouth, his eyes changing unpredictably. After a long while, he said, "Ask Li Mingyang if he needs help. This kind of procrastination is not his style."

Cai Chongxin smiled and nodded.

"Call now."

Feeling Jack Ma's urgency, Cai Zhongxin immediately called Li Mingyang.

However, to Cai Zhongxin's surprise, Li Mingyang, with whom he had always had a good relationship, clearly refused his help this time.

Cai Chongxin was still wondering why Li Mingyang refused Alibaba's help.

Jack Ma had seen through Li Mingyang's actions and said calmly, "This guy has probably reached an agreement with Gong Yu."

"Gong Yu will not end up unless Li Mingyang sells FBTV to iQiyi. Now that Li Mingyang has become a shareholder of CJ, this path is basically impossible." Cai Zhongxin said quickly.

No one knows Jack Ma’s big entertainment plan better than Cai Zhongxin. If Li Mingyang helps Gong Yu get the sugar man, Alibaba will definitely come out to attack Li Mingyang.

The basic foundation of streaming media, after all, is TV series.

Once Baidu acquires shares in Huace and Tangren, it will basically have swept the top players in the domestic entertainment television circle.

Cai Zhongxin doesn't want Alibaba to target Li Mingyang.

Firstly, the two have a good personal relationship, and secondly, it is impossible for Li Mingyang to be completely banned, and the days of cooperation between Alibaba and Li Mingyang are still to come.

Third, Li Mingyang’s overseas value is unique in the domestic entertainment industry, and he is particularly suitable for helping Alibaba go public on the US stock market.

Fourth, and most importantly, Li Mingyang owed him money, a total of 480 million yuan! In addition to Alibaba's options, he invested all his wealth.
