Chapter 1168: Temptation
In the National Theatre.
Zhao Jianfeng seemed to feel the incomprehension flashing in Yang Ming's eyes, followed his eyes and looked behind him, and then a smile appeared on his face, and said: "This is Director Haitian, and Director Haitian is responsible for the racing movie of Mr. He's Shengli Pictures!"
Hearing the name Haitian, Yang Ming immediately understood in his heart, and nodded secretly, it turned out to be this guy.
No wonder it sounds so familiar.
But he didn't take the initiative to greet the Haitian director, the other party was obviously hostile just now, and he didn't have the kind of preference to take the initiative to come forward.
"Hello, Mr. Zhao!" Yang Ming shook hands with Zhao Jianfeng indifferently.
Although he didn't know the background of this Zhao Jianfeng, from the moment he just walked among He Xinghan, Xiao Bufan, Haitian and others, just like the stars and the moon, his status was obviously not low!
"Mr. Yang, is it convenient to have a meal together in the evening, I have long admired your name. Zhao Jianfeng suddenly made a suggestion to Yang Ming.
When Yang Ming heard this, his eyes swept at this Zhao Jianfeng, and then he showed an apologetic look on his face, and said, "I'm really sorry, after the Golden Dragon Award is over, I may have to leave immediately, and I already have an appointment in the evening." ”
He didn't know the intention of this Zhao Jianfeng to invite him, and he didn't want to know that the people who were with He Xinghan and Xiao Bufan were either rich or noble, and they were definitely not ordinary people, and they must have invited him with an obvious purpose.
As for the quality of this purpose, Yang Ming probably won't be any better.
Hearing Yang Ming's refusal, Zhao Jianfeng glanced at Yang Ming deeply, and then showed an elegant smile, not showing anything unusual because of the refusal, as if he was fine, with a kind smile on his face, and continued: "Okay, then let's make an appointment again." ”
"No problem!" Yang Ming also replied with due etiquette.
The few people behind Zhao Jianfeng all had disdainful and hostile eyes, and Yang Ming naturally wouldn't take the initiative to deal with these guys.
Besides, with his status in the entertainment industry now, it is enough to ignore most people.
Just when Yang Ming was holding Su Su's hand and preparing to leave, Zhao Jianfeng suddenly said: "Mr. Yang, does Maoyan Film still accept capital as a shareholder? If we are allowed to Dingtian Group, we are willing to acquire 20% of the shares of Maoyan Film at three times the market value." ”
The words spoken with a smile on his face are like sharp arrows full of stingers, which make people shudder from the bottom of their hearts.
Yang Ming stopped his pace when he heard this, looked at Zhao Jianfeng, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, cat's eye movie, the other party is coming for this, it's not simple!
As soon as it is sold, it is three times the price, involving billions of funds.
Ordinary people really don't have the courage to say this.
Zhao Jianfeng didn't seem to feel a trace of strangeness because of Yang Ming's direct gaze, and he still had a kind smile on his face, as if he was as close as a friend with Yang Ming for many years.
Hiding a knife in a smile, it's not an ordinary person!--Yang Ming thought in his heart when he saw the other party like this, thinking of this, he smiled confidently, looked at Zhao Jianfeng's eyes and said: "Mr. Zhao, every shareholder of Maoyan Film has a unique position in the film industry, and now that the distribution plan has been completed, no new capital will be introduced in the short term!"
"Oh, that's a shame. Zhao Jianfeng shook his head and pretended to be distressed, as if he had missed something good.
After saying this, Yang Ming smiled faintly at the other party, nodded, and then turned around and left with Su Su.
"What kind of person, it's just **** luck!" He Xinghan looked at Yang Ming's departing back and said unhappily.
He was full of anger towards Yang Ming, he was slapped in the face by Yang Ming before, and he was dumb and ate Coptis chinensis, he couldn't say anything about his suffering, so he naturally didn't want to see Yang Ming in his heart.
"Nouveau riche!" Xiao Bufan also snorted coldly, his reputation in the entertainment industry is now stinky, and everything is because of Yang Ming.
Especially his movie tried to compete with Yang Ming's "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" for the box office, and it became the biggest laughing stock in the entertainment industry last year, the two were not on the same level at all, his face was swollen, and it was strange that he had a good attitude towards Yang Ming.
Haitian, who was standing beside He Xinghan and Xiao Bufan, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.
Although he looks down on this genius director who rises like a meteor in his heart, with Yang Ming's status to this day, he has no right to comment on the other party's achievements.
Zhao Jianfeng looked at Yang Ming's departing back, and after a while, he withdrew his eyes, heard the words of the two people behind him, shook his head, and said:
"Don't underestimate this guy, if the other party is really so superficial, it is impossible to start from scratch and create an industry of tens of billions in just five years!"
When He Xinghan and Xiao Bufan heard Zhao Jianfeng's recognition of Yang Ming's achievements, their faces were stunned, and they were a little unnatural.
And Zhao Jianfeng didn't seem to see the strangeness on the faces of the two, and said: "If you want to defeat a person, you must first let go of your pride and value your opponent from the heart!"
After saying this, he didn't care about the embarrassment on the faces of the two people behind him, but looked at Yang Ming's distant figure, showed a playful smile and muttered to himself: "It seems that this time you came to Yanjing is really the right one, I hope you don't surrender so quickly!"
There is still a period of time before the official start of the Golden Dragon Awards, and all the celebrities and celebrities who have come to see acquaintances chatting with each other take this opportunity to communicate.
When Yang Ming and Su Su went to their seats, many people along the way took the initiative to greet Yang Ming and say a few words after seeing Yang Ming.
For everyone who greets him, Yang Ming responds one by one with a smile, neither humble nor arrogant, free to retract, in the eyes of everyone who pays attention to him, he can't help but nod, although this one is a little younger, but it is really as the industry says, you must not look at this demon with the eyes of your peers.
not only has an old age that does not match his age, but also has the kind of self-confidence in his bones, which makes people feel that Yang Ming has a unique temperament, which convinces others.
All the people who come to participate in the Golden Dragon Award at Oriental DreamWorks are in the same area.
Yang Ming and Su Su saw Liu Xinsheng and Sister Zhu after a while, as well as several artists under the company, and others.
As soon as Yang Ming sat down, Lu Enzhong came over and asked, "Why did you kid get involved with the people of the Zhao family?"
The area where Tianxia Pictures is located is not far from Oriental DreamWorks.
He turned his head and saw that it was Lu Enzhong, and when he heard the other party's words, he immediately thought of Zhao Jianfeng who he had just met, and said, "Are you talking about Zhao Jianfeng?"
"Well, that's good!" Lu Enzhong and Liu Xinsheng nodded and said hello, and sat down next to Yang Ming, at this time Su Su did not sit next to Yang Ming, but was pulled over by her classmate Xu Xiaoxi to chat.
Xu Xiaoxi didn't have any nominations tonight, but that didn't prevent her from coming over, a movie she participated in last year was nominated for Best Picture, so at the suggestion of Sister Zhu, she came over to cheer.
Anyway, I can take advantage of tonight's ceremony to expose and gather popularity.
"Do you know him?" Yang Ming asked curiously.
Lu Enzhong heard the words and said: "I've seen it a few times, but I'm not familiar with it, this one is better than Xiao Bufan, you have to be careful!"
Speaking of this, he seemed to have made some kind of embarrassing decision, looked up and swept around, saw that no one was listening to him, and said in a low voice: "This Zhao Jianfeng is the first heir of the Zhao family in Guangdong, the Zhao family is definitely the top ten families in terms of wealth in China, and the capital is extremely strong, this guy doesn't look at a smile, but his style of acting in the business world is extremely ruthless, you have to be careful, he greets you, it is estimated that he has a fancy for what industry you have, you must pay attention!"
When Yang Ming heard Lu Enzhong's words, he showed a thoughtful look, he really didn't expect that Zhao Jianfeng, who he had just met, had such a big background.
His eyes narrowed slightly, Guangzhou, the Zhao family, it seems that he is going to make a phone call to his uncle to inquire about the news.
"He just asked me if Maoyan Films would accept capital injection, three times the price!" Yang Ming said lightly.
Hearing Yang Ming's words, Lu Enzhong's face was full of shock, and then he rushed to a burst of confusion, his heart was beating rapidly, and he asked in a low voice, "Have you agreed?"
Yang Ming glanced at Lu Enzhong, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Maoyan Films will never accept capital injections for money, besides, do you think I am short of money?"
Although he spoke softly, his words carried an unparalleled confidence and pride, but Lu Enzhong felt that the young man next to him seemed to be like a hero on the independent side of the business world, swallowing thousands of miles of anger, and he didn't take Zhao Jianfeng in his eyes at all.
Hearing this, Lu Enzhong immediately understood that it was impossible for Yang Ming to accept Zhao Jianfeng's capital injection, and at the same time, he was secretly heartbroken for this demon who was much younger than himself.
Thinking about it, maybe Yang Ming's wealth is still a lot different from the Zhao family, not at the same level, but this self-made man can create such an amazing industry, which is obviously not comparable to ordinary people, and he definitely didn't take Zhao Jianfeng in his eyes.
Lu Enzhong thought for a while and sighed: "Fortunately, we originally thought that your conditions were too harsh, but now it seems to be a good thing!"
Yang Ming also nodded when he heard this.
This time, Maoyan Film accepted capital injection into several new shareholders, not because Maoyan Film really needs much money for its own operation, but in order to allow Maoyan Film to occupy more market share and have greater influence.
These new shareholders are the same as Lu Enzhong's Tianxia Pictures, all of them are veteran film companies in the film industry, with deep connections, it can be said that as long as all the shareholders of Maoyan Film are united, as long as they are people in the film industry, no one wants to shake the foundation of Maoyan Film.
Oriental DreamWorks, Huaxia Brothers Media, Baoli Company, Royal Entertainment, Tianxia Pictures, etc., the strength of all shareholders of Maoyan Film is too strong.
It's just that when Yang Ming released the shares and signed the contract, the conditions set were very harsh.
The main thing is to prevent the diluted shares, which cannot be transferred or traded within the specified number of years, even if the transaction has priority as a major shareholder, and even the contract stipulates that if the parent company is acquired, the shares of Maoyan Film in his hands will be recovered by Yang Ming again at the price of the market value at that time.
It can be said that Yang Ming formulated this contract quite strictly.
It's cumbersome to the extreme.
There is no way, Yang Ming is not afraid of anything else, he is afraid that when those business capitals invade the film industry on a large scale, they will erode the film industry in various forms, so he has to make such a contract.
Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case.
Now it seems that he was right.
Even if Lu Enzhong and Yang Ming have a good relationship, they signed the same contract.
In fact, for these film companies, the reason why they invested in Maoyan Films is mainly for their own influence, and they don't want their voice in the circle to be weakened.
As long as they can grasp a certain amount of Maoyan Film, then they will be at ease.
They didn't even think about reselling the shares of Maoyan Films, so when they signed the contract at that time, although they were entangled in these strict conditions, they were not deeply entangled.
Lu Enzhong chatted with Yang Ming for a few words, and then said goodbye and left, returning to the area of Tianxia Pictures.
The Golden Dragon Awards are about to begin, and the entertainment festival is about to begin.
At this time, East Asian countries are broadcasting the Golden Dragon Award ceremony live, and countless viewers are looking at the movie screen intently, and whenever they see their idols appearing in the camera, they can't help but shout.
At this time, the people of Oriental DreamWorks are also complete.
When everyone sat down, the people from other film companies around them all showed complicated eyes when they saw the lineup of Oriental DreamWorks.
Yang Ming, Su Su, Xu Xiaoxi, Wu Tianhao, etc., are the purest bloodlines of Oriental DreamWorks.
Yang Chaowei, Wu Dong, Niu Hua and other veteran superstars are also sitting here at Oriental DreamWorks, and people in the circle know that the studios of these superstars have a deep cooperative relationship with Oriental DreamWorks.
Through successive successes over the years.
Many behind-the-scenes workers at Oriental DreamWorks have also achieved fame, and their fame has spread throughout the industry, making other film companies envious and jealous.
Best Lighting, Best Cinematography, Best Costumes, these awards are too many for Oriental Dreamworks.
From this aspect, it can also be seen that the soft power of Oriental DreamWorks is no longer a small company struggling on the verge of life and death five years ago.
In the roaring and warm applause, the Golden Dragon Award ceremony officially began.
While Yang Ming was watching the award ceremony, he was thinking about Zhao Jianfeng he had just met, as well as the martial arts group that was rehearsing intensively.
The mind was not at the award ceremony at all.
"What are you thinking, you're distracted!" Yang Chaowei touched Yang Ming with his arm and asked in a low voice.
"Red Cliffs of the Three Kingdoms" received many nominations, Yang Chaowei who played Zhuge Liang was nominated for Best Actor, and Yang Ming, who played Zhou Yu, also received this nomination.
Yang Ming came back to his senses when he heard this: "It's okay!"
Yang Chaowei looked at the host on the stage, and whispered: "What, how many awards can you win today?"
Tonight, several movies filmed and released by Oriental DreamWorks have basically been nominated for every Golden Dragon Award, so many media joked that the biggest winner tonight must be Oriental DreamWorks.
"How is it possible!" Yang Ming shook his head with a flat face, "I dare to guarantee that tonight's best film and best director definitely do not belong to Oriental DreamWorks!"
"No!" Hearing Yang Ming's words, Yang Chaowei was taken aback and seemed to be in disbelief.
Yang Ming smiled, gave Yang Chaowei a meaningful smile, and didn't say anything.
How could it be!
Last year, Yang Ming was the biggest winner of the Golden Dragon Award!
This year, even if his two films have won numerous awards, they are definitely destined to miss the two awards of Best Picture and Best Director!
It is impossible for the Golden Dragon Award Organizing Committee to be happy to see this happen, and Yang Ming has become the biggest winner year after year!
Therefore, he is sure in his heart that at tonight's awards ceremony, Oriental DreamWorks will definitely win a lot of awards, but it will definitely miss out on several awards.
