Huayu has been doing one good deed a day since 2001

Chapter 181 Da Meiyuan Heavyweight Backstabs Fat Bing
On November 11, Li Wenyu signed a full-season sitcom filming contract with Carter and Craig at the rented office of Time Media.

The contract clearly states that if a third party wants to breach the contract and start a new business with Carter and Craig, all copyrights of the entire series will belong to Time.

And they also want to claim money from these two people.

He stood up and said with a smile, "It's a pleasure to work with you. I mean what I said. From now on, we will transfer 10% of the profits of our Asia-Pacific team from this sitcom series to you."

His contract is quite stable.

Carter and Craig were delighted to sign the contract, except that they are not very famous at this stage.

What’s more important is that in addition to increasing their basic salary, their share of the profits has also increased.

For those who become big screenwriters and producers, the dividends are similar to those of Jackie Chan starring in Rush Hour 2, which is $1500 plus 20% profit.

He can give these two an extra 10%, which is not a small proportion.

When Time Travel collaborates with Warner Bros. Television, it's basically them wanting Asia and the other party wanting Europe and the United States.

When Lao Li was pushing Carter and Craig to co-produce a TV series with Warner Bros. Television, he also helped them negotiate the profit sharing between Europe and the United States.

The 10% on the Asian side is additional.

With Lao Li's ability to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director and Best Screenplay, he made a big push into the top three European films.

Now even (The Big Bang Theory) has exploded.

At this stage, Time Media is really like a new large-scale studio that is rapidly rising outside of the Big Eight or Big Six in Hollywood.

What he was talking about was that he wanted to find the other party to collaborate on a sitcom with fixed scenes, and the core of the series would rely on the interaction and growth of several male and female protagonists.

Character traits and relationship changes drive the progress of the series, as well as multi-line narratives involving different male and female protagonists.

Lao Li mentioned these big frameworks.

Carter clapped his hands and said what a coincidence, as he had conceived a similar idea after the failure of his previous family comedy, which was of a similar nature.

It doesn’t matter, most sitcoms have this core.

Everyone became happier the more they talked.

The contract is done!

Li Wenyu invited the two to have coffee. "I also invited Vince Gilligan to create this project. My company is also discussing the progress of that project with Warner Bros. Television."

"We estimate that filming will begin in 05. I hope everything goes smoothly."

After the three of them clinked their glasses, Lao Li had just taken a sip when his cell phone rang.

Quan Zhixian wrote, "Director Li, your new headquarters is ready. Should I go directly to the new building? If I'm photographed by paparazzi, I can just explain it as normal business cooperation."

Old Li, “…”

A few days ago, Ah Xin was still complaining about the long legs in South Korea, saying that if they knew about it, they would cause trouble.

Flying here so quickly?
He was a little speechless. If he didn't doubt that he could not keep his composure, he might eat Megan in two or three years.

He couldn't refuse the 82% business cooperation with Zhang Yimou for ten years.

Xiaoxian is a very knowledgeable person and he often goes on tour to promote Shi Guang's works.

Even if there is no hard work, there is still sweat.

Seeing that Lao Li's expression was a little subtle, Carter and Craig smiled, said a few polite words and left.

Shi Guang arranged a hotel for them so that they could stay and eat there for a long time while writing scripts.

…………

Half an hour later, Lao Li finally arrived at Andingmenwai Street.

Upon learning that Jeon Ji-hyun was in a certain area of ​​the parking garage on the third underground floor, he headed straight there.

…………

Night falls.

On the 15th floor of the new headquarters, behind a door in a corner of a large office of more than 200 square meters is a 50-square-meter lounge that is more comfortable than the bedroom in a courtyard house in terms of decoration and furniture.

Xiaoxian was taking a shower when Lao Li asked with a smile, "Are you here for the new Mi Opera sitcom?"

Jeon Ji-hyun, who successfully lost 4 kilograms, shook her head, "No, have you forgotten Reply 1988? Project development, all kinds of detailed props, and period architecture."

"It's almost done. I'll play the leading female role and practice singing with you at the same time."

When she came out with nothing else to her, he teased her, "You're not struggling with how to reject me, are you? I'm really not craving Mi drama."

"American dramas are usually very explicit, so dislocation and body doubles don't work well."

"I'm afraid you'll dislike me if I act too much. Anyway, I've already reached the top of Peninsula. Others can't be on par with me without the support of the chaebol."

"It's so tiring to act out those messed-up things."

Old Li was speechless.

He began to wonder if this Xiao Quan was really like Li Jiaxin, or like the fight between Xiao Tong and her when they first met?
If it hits your hand, it may even cause death?

To prevent human life, we have always taken medicine.

Pang Bing had been with him for less than half a year when he complained about having to take medicine all the time. He thought that his body would be damaged due to taking medicine for a long time, but when he went for a physical examination, he found that everything was normal and he was getting healthier and healthier.

Speechless, he nodded. "1988 is indeed almost ready. Just like (Squid Game), I don't want the broadcasting rights in South Korea, I don't want to sell the film, and I don't want any advertising fees."

"Samsung covers all the expenses, so it's not a bad collaboration."

Samsung doesn't even have to spend money on advertising in this kind of drama, and is only responsible for the human, material and financial expenses of filming?
So in Squid Game, there are T1 male stars like Jang Dong-gun from Peninsula.

Let him play any supporting role.

The same is true for Reply 1988, you can use whoever you want.

Xiao Quan quickly ran off to try on the bunny girl costume, "When will Sister Xin or Alexandra come to help? I'm almost dead again."

"Director Li, don't worry, I don't have any clingy thoughts."

"I'm suddenly fantasizing about having an illegitimate child someday. Forty years from now, will I be able to run for the Green House? Then I'll be the mother of the nation."

"Is my imagination out of control? But 40 years is too far away. This idea might disappear in a while. I'm only 23 years old and too immature."

Li Wenyu couldn't help coughing.

What I say now is purely a joke, but in reality, 20 years from now, the peninsula and the island countries will do all kinds of magical operations and will not dare to listen to the American daddy.

You can only dig your own grave.

Jeon Ji-hyun is a person who knows how to use his imagination.

He actually got a little excited instinctively when he just thought about it.

Xiaoxian is now faster and more efficient at trying on new clothes, and as a smart person, she is increasingly figuring out how to please Lao Li.

This is a new excitement that no one else, including Pang Bing, can bring to Lao Li.

The Time Group has already dominated the private business community in mainland China. I dare not imagine what will happen in another ten or twenty years.

If Alexandra runs away with her belly, she can train some city and state leaders to run for office in the United States, but it is far from easy to sweep the peninsula.

…………

It's around eight o'clock in the evening.

Old Li appeared in the cafeteria on the first floor. Seeing that there were many more faces here, both familiar and unfamiliar, he stood outside the cafeteria and lit a cigarette for himself.

What a rip-off! He was fooled by a Peninsula girl's empty promises.

My blood is still boiling, which is embarrassing.

There are many unsolved mysteries in the entertainment industry. Does Da Tiantian rely on relatives or boyfriends? Who is the mother of A Kun's son?

Who will be the father of Azhi’s third child in the future?
If Peninsula Xiaoxian conceals some information, as long as he is of normal half-Peninsula descent, has clear information, and has financial support?
Plus the technological confidence of his black technology mechanical ascension.

No wonder Jeon Ji-hyun really looked down on the role of the second female lead in "How I Met Your Mother". This girl is extremely ambitious.

Old Li was still smoking when some people in the cafeteria noticed him and came out one after another. They were Lei Jiayin, Wen Zhang, Guo Jingfei, Lu Yi, Chen Kun and others.

After a simple hello and a polite greeting, A Kun said bluntly, "Director Li, can I apply to join Time now? I wanted to say this last time when I was on the show, but I terminated my contract with my previous company after I became a doctor, and I paid for it out of my own pocket."

Chen Kun's words made the whole situation seem to be dead.

Qin Hao, who was running a little slower and a few steps behind, laughed and joked, "Ah Kun, aren't you bullying a child? How shameless."

The second generation Hao Zhen is not greedy (How I Met Your Mother), he also wants to transfer over, but he is more focused on pursuing artistic performance.

From "Dying to Survive" to various projects aiming for the top three European awards and Hollywood's Oscars, these are the projects that Qin Hao is most jealous of.

The first time the news of this project was leaked was when Fat Bing told Shou Bing.

At that time, a group of male actors were notified individually? The scale of the news leak was even larger.

Li Wenyu waved his hands, feeling both amused and helpless. "Go back and eat, and don't think too much. I only care about your acting skills and English proficiency."

Lei Jiayin, Wen Zhang and others nodded hurriedly. When they turned around and saw more people walking towards them, they helped to drive them away.

Chen Kun spoke hurriedly in English, "When I terminated my contract with my previous company, I really didn't know about this project."

"I knew Xiao Ming was practicing English, so I was also learning privately. I wasn't as fast as him, but I knew that with time I would have a better future."

"Whether it's a blockbuster drama, or the old seaside Tsuen Wan, or Blue Jasmine, as time goes by, there are more opportunities to go out."

"Director Li, even if you allow me in now, I'm not running for [How I Met Your Mother], I just want a guest appearance in a sitcom once in a while."

"I'm not going to compete with these young guys anymore."

A Kun said this.

Old Li also smiled and nodded, "Okay, we are growing bigger and bigger, and there are more opportunities. You can go to the Legal Department to sign the contract tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Young, middle-aged, young, old, etc., now Time Media does not have as many older artists as Huayi.

From Chen Mingming to Liang Jiahui, Liu Jialing and others, their mainland contracts were first signed by Wang Jinghua.

Afterwards, he arrived at the cafeteria and didn't chat with the ordinary people in the industry who came to get a sneak peek (of Squid Games). He just packed some food and went back to the top floor.

The office on the 15th floor has a street view, 200 square meters of office space and a 50 square meter rest area behind a small door.

Pang Bing also finished filming today's (Perfect Strangers) and was chatting with Xiao Quan and A Xin in the office meeting area.

The expressions of the three people were very natural, without any abnormality.

Old Li complained again, saying that Quan Zhixian must not have told her about her imagination, otherwise she would have been beaten up by Pang Bing and Ah Xin.

Pulling hair and pinching is also fighting.

孽 孽!
…………

November 11th, early in the morning.

When Li Wenyu and Pang Bing left the courtyard together, the driver, Da Meiyuan, smiled sweetly, "I know that (Perfect Stranger) will shoot very quickly once the opportunity arises."

"But it's only the thirteenth day, and you're already wrapping up? You're moving too fast."

"Sister Bingbing, how much have you learned?"

Lao Li went there on the day filming started, so could it be wrapped today? The latest would be tomorrow.

He felt it was quite normal. Apart from the worst acting actors, Joey Wong and Qin Lan, who held back for a few days, the rest of the cast was simply a gathering of the strongest acting talents in the Chinese film and television industry.

Xiao Tong? She can be cheated.

Lao Li nodded, "If you really want to become a director, you still have a lot to learn. This time is just practice."

Another night passed, and he actually calmed down.

I'm completely stable now, and I'm no longer excited about what Jeon Ji-hyun had promised me.

He doesn't want to do that in this life, but he can train his children to become civil servants since they can take the civil service exam.

He still has a cheat!!
It is not difficult to get to the stage of serving the people in some small places.

He spoke again, "We'll go back to our hometown during the Christmas and New Year period. It's the second year since you officially announced your name, and we won't be back during the New Year."

"We have to go back early to show our appreciation."

Fat Bing was instantly struck by this emotional value and was moved to tears.

I worked hard in the car all the way.

The car must have one-way glass, so you can't see inside from the outside. When Pang Bing was re-applying her makeup, Da Meiyu opened her mouth in a low voice, so soft that she couldn't even hear it herself.

After all, I knew that Lao Li had such abnormal hearing.

"If I take advantage of Sister Bingbing's good mood and act coquettishly and say I want a illegitimate daughter, it will be easier to succeed, right?"

"They are all so popular, with incredible fame, and they have to run around to promote their products. I'm fine. I can disappear for a few months, and everyone will think my disappearance is normal."

Old Li, “…”

Although Da Meiyuan is a nobody, she stabbed me in the back the moment she opened her mouth.

So you always reject this and that, quietly being the driver and the little follower, and have already considered becoming famous with other people?
It's not convenient to disappear for a few months, right?!
Li Wenyu lit a cigarette dejectedly and gave Da Meiyuan a few looks, letting her figure it out for herself.

Originally, he thought that since he was so aggressive in cheating, he could be more stable and not be so reckless.

But he still ignored the classic interpretation of three women in one play.

Da Meiyu then restarted the car with both anticipation and trepidation.

The journey took too long, and the car had already stopped in an uninhabited underground parking lot along the way.

She felt that it was sometimes real and sometimes fake, and it was also very exciting to receive special punishment from Lao Li.

At least ten days of heavy firepower education.

This big beast loved to punish her with the perpetual motion machine when she did something wrong.

Fat Bing took a few more sips of the refreshing herbal tea made with Chinese patent medicine and asked suspiciously, "Yuanyuan, did you do something bad behind my back? Your ears are all red."

Da Meiyuan responded with an awkward laugh, "I was just thinking, it would be a shame not to take a photo of such a beautiful view. I won't be able to see it when I get older."

"Brother Yu took care of him."

"I'm waiting to be punished."

Fat Bing looked at Lao Li suspiciously.

Li Wenyu nodded, "Almost."

You still have to work harder to keep your family stable and out of chaos.

…………

The day's shooting ended smoothly.

At 6 p.m. on the 5th, when the sound of wrap-up was heard, the small crew quickly cheered and celebrated.

Old Li entertained Liang Jiahui, Chen Rongming, Zhou Xingchi and Jiang Wen, and they would not return home until they were drunk at night.

Zhou Xingchi was very excited. "Mr. Li, this play was really exciting to perform. The acting competition was so exciting."

"When you're on the road, feel free to ask for help."

Jiang Wen, Liang Jiahui and Wang Zuxian have also expressed their views.

After a few words of celebration, Gong Li laughed and said, "Director Li, the 05 Hollywood Television and Film Golden Globe Awards nominees will be announced next month, right?"

Gong Li didn't ask for anything in Berlin. She paid for the Silver Bear for Best Director and the Golden Bear out of her own pocket, waiting for the upcoming awards season.

Lao Li nodded, "It's not a big deal. You will definitely be nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Actress."

Gong Li took a deep breath and said, "Then I'll have to run PR again and spend a lot of money. If I can't even win a Golden Globe, I can forget about winning an Oscar."
