The entertainment empire began with Liu Yifei's premarital pregnancy.

"Leave Huayi Brothers, and I'll help you start your own studio."

Inside the tea room, Lin Bufan looked at Fan Bingbing across from him with a serious expression: "Within five years, I will help you take your company public."

Since Lin Bufan has decided to break with Huayi Brothers, he will not hold back at all.

Is this really true?

Fan Bingbing's eyes lit up as she looked at Lin Bufan.

She had long harbored the idea of ​​leaving Huayi Brothers, but she had never made up her mind to do so.

Lin Bufan's promise truly moved Fan Bingbing.

"Whether it goes public or not is irrelevant to me, but regarding resources..."

Fan Bingbing looked at Lin Bufan.

She hasn't thought about the company going public yet, and she doesn't even dare to think about it. In her mind, going public is something that only big investors consider.

Even a company as powerful as Huayi Brothers, which is practically the top entertainment company in China right now, hasn't gone public.

"How about one Hollywood movie with a female lead every year?"

Lin Bufan thought for a moment and looked at Fan Bingbing.

Now, the only resources he can offer that would appeal to others are those in Hollywood.

If he can get Yang Mi to act in Hollywood movies, then he can certainly get Fan Bingbing to act in one too.

"Okay, it's a deal."

A smile appeared on Fan Bingbing's lips, and she couldn't help but think to herself that her decision back then was the right one.

This is Hollywood talent, and she'll be playing the lead role. If Lin Bufan hadn't pushed Yang Mi to go to Hollywood to play the lead role, she wouldn't have dared to even think about it.

"Consider this a gift from me to you."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Bufan took out a script from his pocket and placed it in front of Fan Bingbing.

It appeared to be taken out of his pocket, but in reality, Lin Bufan took it out from a dimensional space.

"Taken?"

Fan Bingbing looked at the four large characters on the script, then picked up the script and started reading.

The female lead in "Taken" is Kim Mills, the male lead's daughter. If she plays the role well, she will be outstanding.

"Isn't it a bit jarring that the male lead's daughter is Chinese?"

Fan Bingbing glanced at the script briefly.

The female lead is the male lead's daughter, and the male lead is a Westerner. Fan Bingbing felt this was somewhat incongruous. Would Hollywood agree to this?

"That's simple, just change the character of the male lead's ex-wife to be Chinese."

Lin Bufan spoke simply and casually.

This movie mainly features the male lead's action scenes, as well as car chases and explosions. As long as the male lead's identity remains the same, there would be no problem replacing the roles of his ex-wife and daughter with Chinese characters.

Upon hearing Lin Bufan's words, Fan Bingbing gave him a deep look.

Fan Bingbing gleaned a lot of information from his words.

"I want 50% of the studio's shares, is that alright?"

Lin Bufan looked at Fan Bingbing and stated his conditions.

Fan Bingbing is now a big name in the industry, one of the "Four Dan and Two Bing" actresses, and owns 50% of the shares, so Lin Bufan can't really be said to be taking advantage of her.

"no problem!"

Fan Bingbing agreed without hesitation.

She knew very well that if she wanted Lin Bufan to give her resources, she would definitely have to make some sacrifices.

Originally, Fan Bingbing wanted to invite Lin Bufan to her house, saying that her cat could do backflips and she wanted to perform for him. Unfortunately, Lin Bufan had other things to do and could only regretfully decline for the time being.

……

"You choose for yourself!"

Inside the hotel room, Lin Bufan leaned against the headboard, holding An Yixuan in his arms.

Originally, An Yixuan didn't hold a high position in Lin Bufan's heart, and he wouldn't have contacted her again if there hadn't been any follow-up.

However, during those nights in Hengdian, An Yixuan used every trick in the book.

Taking all this into consideration, Lin Bufan is giving her a chance today.

"If you choose Huayi Brothers, I will give you another role as the second female lead in a movie after this film is finished, as compensation." Lin Bufan exhaled a smoke ring, his tone indifferent.

He gave the other party the power of choice.

"I choose you!"

As soon as Lin Bufan finished speaking, An Yixuan sat up from his chest and looked at him with a serious and determined gaze.

An Yixuan didn't know what was wrong with her. Normally, she knew that she didn't have a high position in Lin Bufan's heart. If it were about maximizing benefits, she should have chosen Huayi.

However, when Lin Bufan gave her a choice, she chose him without the slightest hesitation.

"How many years are left on your contract with Huayi Brothers?"

Lin Bufan was somewhat moved and looked at An Yixuan.

"I signed an eight-year contract with Huayi Brothers..." An Yixuan looked pitifully at Lin Bufan.

She only signed with Huayi Brothers this year, and it will take her more than seven years to terminate the contract unless she pays a penalty in advance.

"I'll pay the penalty for breach of contract for you."

Unlike An Yixuan, Chen Zihan decided to switch to behind-the-scenes work, so Huayi Brothers did not agree to terminate the contract. She also did not want to pay the other party the penalty for breach of contract, so she just let it drag on.

She wouldn't give Huayi Brothers a single penny.

An Yixuan's fame only lasted for a short time after "Chinese Paladin 1", and that has long since faded, so the breach of contract penalty is not high, only five million.

"Wait a moment!"

As Lin Bufan spoke, he got up and walked outside. A few minutes later, he returned with a script and handed it directly to An Yixuan.

"What is 'My Own Swordsman'?"

An Yixuan glanced at the script, then looked up at Lin Bufan.

"There's a role in this play that's quite suitable for you. When you get back, study the script carefully and thoroughly understand the character," Lin Bufan instructed An Yixuan.

Since An Yixuan had chosen him, he certainly couldn't treat him unfairly.

There aren't many suitable roles for her among the projects currently underway. On the contrary, the role of Guo Furong in "My Own Swordsman" is quite a good match for An Yixuan.

In the original series, the character Guo Furong was played by Yao Dazui, and it was a classic performance.

Now that it's An Yixuan, Lin Bufan believes she won't be much worse, provided she thoroughly studies the character.

Lin Bufan disliked Yao Dazui very much. He would rather give the role to his own woman than to her. Even if she was slightly worse, with the script and lines, it wouldn't be much different.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely do my best in my performance!"

An Yixuan nodded seriously.

At this moment, she felt more and more that following Lin Bufan was the right choice.

Even Huayi Brothers might not have many good resources for me.

An Yixuan was right. In her later years, when she signed with Huayi Brothers, she did not receive any good resources. As a result, after Lin Yueru, she did not have any classic roles and gradually faded into obscurity, disappearing from the public eye.

Currently, apart from An Yixuan, only Dong Xuan in the "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" crew has a contract with Huayi Brothers. However, she only has six months left on her contract, and if she doesn't renew it, she doesn't need to pay attention to Huayi Brothers.
