Inside the golf course.

He Xinghan heard Zhao Jianfeng's inadvertent question, and his heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.

The Zhao family, that is a behemoth that is more powerful than the He family.

Although the other party's energy is more in the business world, the influence of the Zhao family cannot be ignored at the top, especially in every general election, many politicians from the south have received political sponsorship from the Zhao family when they are running.

Thinking that the other party is now eyeing Shengli Pictures, an industry with a history of nearly 100 years in the history of Chinese films, He Xinghan can't help but feel a sense of fear in his heart.

But thinking of the family's decision, he took a deep breath, squeezed out a smile, and said, "No problem, there will be a special person at home who will be responsible for negotiating with you when you go back." ”

He Xinghan is just a matchmaker, responsible for air transmission and ventilation, which involves the adjustment of the general direction of the family, and has nothing to do with him.

After saying this, embarrassment also appeared on his face, the family's positioning of him, if it was okay to face the ordinary people, he could still show off his might.

However, if you meet the heirs of other families like Zhao Jianfeng, it will be a bit exposed, and the two sides are not at the same level of dialogue at all.

However, Zhao Jianfeng didn't seem to see He Xinghan's embarrassment.

After he heard this answer from He Xinghan, his expression was calm, and he did not show any surprise because of this news.

It seems that for him, everything is going with the flow, and perhaps in his eyes, taking a stake in Victory Pictures may be just a trivial matter, not worth writing about.

"Oh, by the way, since You Gang, the new best director of the Golden Dragon Award, walked out of Shengli Pictures, is it possible that he will be in charge of preparing a blockbuster film in the near future, mainly to reflect the theme of Chinese history and culture!"

Zhao Jianfeng changed the topic and suddenly made a suggestion.

When He Xinghan heard the other party's words, his face changed slightly, and his expression became even more embarrassed, others didn't know, but he knew that You Gang would never have anything to do with Victory Pictures.

"It may not be easy. After a while, such a sentence came out of He Xinghan's mouth.

"What's going on?" Zhao Jianfeng seemed to sense the strangeness of the situation, and looked at He Xinghan with his eyes and asked, his expression was flat, but it made He Xinghan feel endless pressure.

You Gang!

As soon as he thought of this name, He Xinghan felt that there was endless anger in his heart and nowhere to vent.

If that "Bitter Water" hadn't been a big success at the Golden Dragon Awards, he would definitely not have been so embarrassed.

You Gang is a time-honored director of Victory Pictures, and has shot several classic Chinese films for Victory Pictures.

At the same time, this famous director is also a great contributor to the most glorious period of the eighties and nineties of Victory Pictures, however, now the outside media is crazy that You Gang almost went bankrupt in order to shoot this "Bitter Water", and Victory Pictures has nothing to do with this film.

This has to be said to be a great irony.

He Xinghan knew that he couldn't hide it, so he told Zhao Jianfeng what happened.

It turned out that when director You Gang set up the filming plan of "Bitter Water", he always thought that with his signature in Shengli Pictures, the company would definitely give investment support.

But no one expected that when he handed in the shooting plan, the company's reaction was not followed.

You Gang inquired about his shooting plan, which caused a lot of controversy at the top level, and was vetoed by He Xinghan.

For this reason, the hot-tempered director directly approached the company's top management for theory.

Unexpectedly, he found He Xinghan, and his temper was straightforward and casually said a few words that stimulated He Xinghan, what he didn't understand film art, what he only knew about eating, drinking and having fun, which made He Xinghan furious, and strictly ordered the company not to invest a penny in You Gang's crew.

If it is just like this, with You Gang's name, he can still get sponsorship from the outside world.

But He Xinghan greeted many people, banned You Gang, and released that the film shot by You Gang was going to take the artistic route, and Shengli Pictures was not optimistic about the box office after the release of this film.

For various reasons, You Gang's new drama can't be invested at all.

At this time, the local entertainment industry lost all its money because of the so-called art film "The End of the World" by Tianxia Pictures, and its vitality was almost greatly damaged, and its investment in art films was repeatedly compressed.

Unless it is a small cost of less than 10 million, the film company may still have a game for the reputation brought by winning the award.

But You Gang's "Bitter Water", which is about 30 million Chinese yuan, is obviously not valued by other film companies.

Especially at the risk of offending Victory Pictures.

You Gang's imprint of Victory Pictures is too deep.

This led to the fact that later, You Gang smashed the pot and sold iron, and he also wanted to shoot "Bitter Water", and completely fell out with Victory Pictures.

At the same time, "Bitter Water" also became an independently produced film.

Now it seems that if it is an economic account, there is no doubt that He Xinghan made a wise decision.

"Bitter Water" can be described as a box office fiasco, and now half of the shooting cost has not been recovered.

But now this film has won three awards at the Golden Dragon Awards, two of which are the most important awards for Best Director and Best Picture.

Then this account cannot be counted in this way.

30 million Chinese yuan, if you can buy the best picture and best director of the Golden Dragon Award, it is estimated that all film companies in the film industry will break their minds for this opportunity, no matter whether they offend Shengli Pictures or not, they will also participate in the production of You Gang's film.

It's a pity that I can only think about it now.

After "Bitter Water" won three Golden Dragon Awards, the senior management of the entire Victory Pictures regretted it.

It's only 30 million Chinese dollars!

Victory Pictures seems to have not won the Little Golden Dragon for 7 years.

This is undoubtedly very faceless for a movie giant.

And now they let a film that won three Golden Dragon awards slip away from their eyes, if they don't regret it, it is estimated that the liars will not believe it.

In this case, He Xinghan, who refused and had a bad relationship with You Gang at the beginning, suddenly felt that many people in the company looked at him with a little ridicule.

Zhao Jianfeng listened to He Xinghan finish what happened, nodded slightly, picked up the drink on the table and took a sip.

After pondering for a moment, he said softly: "It's not a big deal, go back and make an appointment with this You Gang, I want to meet him!"

"What?" He Xinghan was taken aback when he heard this, and his face was very unsightly.

It's literally a slap in the face.

If it weren't for the fact that the person who said this was Zhao Jianfeng, He Xinghan would have the heart to turn over the table in his heart.

But if he really wants to bow his head to the director who was deliberately targeted by him, he really can't open his mouth.

Considering Zhao Jianfeng's identity and status, He Xinghan thought about this sentence in his heart for a while, but in the end he didn't say it, but he still expressed his inner reluctance with silence.

Seeing He Xinghan's appearance, Zhao Jianfeng naturally guessed what the other party was thinking.

He put down his drink, touched his chin, and thought in his heart that it might backfire if he forced the other party again.

These guys care more about face than anyone else.

As one of them, Zhao Jianfeng knows He Xinghan's thoughts better than anyone else.

Therefore, he thought for a while and said slowly: "Forget it, you can arrange for someone to contact this director when you go back." ”

When He Xinghan heard this, he immediately smiled, and immediately patted his chest and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it later." ”

After saying this, he couldn't help but ask curiously: "How did you think of contacting this guy, although he won the Golden Dragon Award, and his level is really good, many people say that he is no longer suitable for the current film industry!"

This is not He Xinghan's idea alone, but many people have such an opinion.

In fact, You Gang's age is not too old, 46 years old, until he is in the prime of life.

But in recent years, there have been no very good film works, and several have been filmed, without exception at the box office, none of which have been successful.

If this "Bitter Water" does not win the Golden Dragon Award in the end, it is estimated that it will also be useless.

"It's okay!" Zhao Jianfeng shook his head and didn't say what he really thought in his heart.

The family is now going to shift the focus of investment to the entertainment and cultural industry, and he will not disclose this plan for the future development of the family to anyone.

In addition, the family also wants to close the relationship with the top management of the government by investing heavily in the entertainment and cultural industry.

In fact, the outside world does not know that the family has helped many political stars to run for election through its strong capital strength in the past, and has also received rich returns.

However, with the recent arrival of a new high-level government, the government has cracked down on corruption and formulated a number of relevant policies and regulations to strictly restrict the involvement of capital forces in political elections, and prevent the power of capital from eventually controlling the country's political posture.

The Zhao family's political power in the government has declined sharply in recent years, so the family will try to get closer to the high-level and hope to gain the attention of the government.

At present, the national high-level attaches great importance to the export of Chinese culture to the outside world, so the entertainment and cultural industry is a very good entry point.

Yang Ming started from scratch in just a few years and created a wealth myth that has amazed countless people.

He had studied the legendary life of this young man who was much younger than himself, and although the success of the other party had the factor of ability and luck, he could not ignore the strong support of the government.

It is precisely because of the escort of the government that this Yang Ming will achieve such dazzling success.

And the reason why Yang Ming was treated favorably by the government was to take a look at it.

It is precisely because of this young man's ability to export local culture to the outside world that it has attracted the attention of the high-level.

Therefore, Zhao Jianfeng was sent by the family to Yanjing to take charge of the family's plan in the entertainment and cultural industry.

Investing in Victory Pictures is only the first step, so it is best to buy Maoyan Films, and at the same time, it is necessary to acquire a cinema company.

For the Zhao family, what they are best at is undoubtedly being both a referee and a player.

Every industrial chain, the Zhao family must be in their own hands.

It's just that Yang Ming didn't know all this.

Even if he knew, he wouldn't take it to heart, he had memories of his past life, and he didn't dare to guarantee it elsewhere, but in the entertainment and cultural industry, he had strong confidence.

Yanjing, Oriental DreamWorks.

"Welcome Director You to our company!"

Liu Xinsheng shook hands with a smile on his face and a middle-aged man with slightly gray hair, who was obviously You Gang, who had just won the Golden Dragon Award for Best Director.

"Haha, you're welcome, Mr. Liu!"

You Gang shook hands with Liu Xinsheng while looking at the interior of Oriental DreamWorks, and he couldn't help but say, "Yo, you guys are quite crowded here!"

"Who says it's not!" Liu Xinsheng said with a calm smile, "Our company has grown so fast in recent years that many hardware conditions have not kept up, but we will soon move to a new office building." ”

A few years ago, Yang Ming and Liu Xinsheng decided to set up Oriental DreamWorks in this business building, and later the company expanded again and again, and the office space was naturally crowded.

Even in the aisle of a department, when two people pass, they need to turn sideways to walk through.

Later, Liu Xinsheng communicated with the property of the building, and it took a lot of effort to slowly rent this floor.

Even so, there is still not enough office space, and many departments are located on other floors.

But all this is going to be a thing of the past, and the Oriental Building, which started construction last year, is almost completed, and it is estimated that it will not be long before they can move to their new home office.

"I heard that, Oriental Mansion!" You Gang smiled heartily.

Under the guidance of Liu Xinsheng, the two came to Liu Xinsheng's office, which is not a big place, as the boss of an emerging giant in the local film industry, a small office can indeed be called shabby.

But neither Liu Xinsheng nor You Gang put their minds on this aspect.

For Oriental DreamWorks, there is no need to prove their status through the size and luxury of the office space.

They have already used their films to prove the current position of Oriental DreamWorks in the local film industry.

"Originally, Mr. Li should be in charge of this matter, but others have gone to the United States, and it may take a while to come back, but he has already arranged it, you don't have to worry!"

Liu Xinsheng said while making tea for You Gang.

After "Bitter Water" won the Golden Dragon Award, even if this film is artistic, under the publicity of the media, it is well known to everyone and is known by countless audiences and fans.

However, due to the previous box office fiasco of this film, it has long been offline from most theaters, so even if You Gang won the best director, he still did not celebrate with a carnival, but contacted major theater companies, hoping to arrange a certain number of screenings for "Bitter Water".

It's a pity that most of the theaters rejected You Gang's cooperation.

Even if "Bitter Water" won the Golden Dragon Award, the previous box office fiasco still makes all theater companies remember it vividly.

This kind of niche art film, the audience does not buy it.

Even if you take advantage of the name of the Golden Dragon Award, you can make the box office rebound, and some fans can enter the theater out of curiosity, but the volume is definitely not large.

Moreover, these theater companies have already had their own plans, and it is obviously impossible to suddenly change their plans because of a movie, which will outweigh the losses.

In the past few days, You Gang has not eaten much closed-door soup.

It's just that just when he felt extremely disappointed and was about to sell the VCD copyright and online video copyright of "Bitter Water" and take advantage of the opportunity to win the Golden Dragon Award, he received a call from Liu Xinsheng.

Oriental DreamWorks can arrange a theatrical release for "Bitter Water".

"Can our film be released in Donghai theaters?" You Gang asked when he heard Liu Xinsheng's words, his eyes showed surprise.

Liu Xinsheng shook his head and said, "No!"

You Gang looked stunned, and then quite disappointed, Donghai Cinema Line has been promoted from ninth to fourth among the top ten cinema chains through continuous mergers and acquisitions and new theaters in recent years!

If it can be launched on the East China Sea Cinema Line, it will undoubtedly be the best news for him.

Without waiting for him to react, Liu Xinsheng continued: "It's not the Donghai Cinema Line, but the Art Garden Cinema Line, since the second half of last year, this cinema line has been completely closed and renovated, so it will resume business after the year, the number of theaters is not much, but it can be said that it is the most unique cinema line in China, a cinema line specializing in screening art films!"

"Yiyuan?" You Gang said the name in his mouth, how did he feel so familiar with this name?
