Chapter 510: True Purpose
readx;? In the conference room of the pinnacle of the century, Zhang Ran and the company's senior management were holding a meeting on the issue of the joint ban in the Beijing circle and the distribution of China Film. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Although everyone was not worried, their expressions were a little solemn. Offending the Beijing circle means that for a long time to come, there will be constant troubles in film and television.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Zhang Ran pretended to be relaxed and said: "Zhang Yimou in the Beijing circle has been black for so many years, and he hasn't been able to do anything to Zhang Yimou, so we don't need to worry too much." The most powerful thing about the Beijing circle is that it has the right to speak in the media and cultural circles, and it can easily discredit others, but the times are different. "Wu Ji" is the best example, when the movie was released, the media desperately touted it, but in the scolding of netizens, the media could only turn against each other. Now is the Internet era, and the Beijing circle can't dominate the market!"
Wu Ruide They nodded, it is the Internet era, the influence of traditional media is declining, the influence of the Beijing circle is also declining, and their influence will become smaller and smaller.
"It's actually a good thing that China Film doesn't distribute our films, so that we can build our own distribution team and distribute it ourselves. Zhang Ran looked at Gao Jun and said, "Old Gao, you are an expert in film marketing, and the formation of the distribution team will be left to you!"
Gao Jun nodded: "No problem." Although I left the New Film Association, I am full of acquaintances, and we will definitely not suffer a loss in the film scheduling when our movie is released, and the heads of United Cinemas, Dadi Cinemas, and Pacific Cinemas are all my friends, and there will be no problem with film scheduling!"
Zhang Ran smiled and nodded, he had the idea of forming a distribution team when he poached Gao Jun from the New Film Association, but the peak of the century was not strong enough, and it was not yet time to form a distribution team. However, after such a fuss in the Beijing circle, Zhang Ran had no other choice but to advance the formation of the distribution team.
Wu Ruide muttered: "I always feel that things are a little wrong, is the Beijing circle really trying to ban us? This is obviously impossible, why do they still make a big fuss, I always feel that they have another purpose." ā
Zhang Ran agreed with Wu Ruide's opinion: "I have always felt strange. ā
Ning Hao coughed and said, "Can I guess what they want to do?"
Zhang Ran immediately said, "Oh, let's talk about it!"
Ning Hao took a breath and said: "On the eighteenth of last month, Wang Zhonglei came to me and hoped that I would join Huayi, and he said that as long as I joined Huayi, he would give me a signing fee of 100 million, saying that he could provide me with the best resources, but I refused. Yesterday he came to me again, saying that you have been banned by the entire Beijing circle, and there is no future with you, and I sent him a word at that time - get out!"
Hearing Ning Hao's words, everyone present felt a pang in their hearts and understood the true purpose of the Beijing circle. In addition to suppressing Zhang Ran, another purpose of the Beijing circle is to deprive Zhang Ran of the resources in his hands.
It is impossible for the Beijing circle to really ban Zhang Ran, even if he is really blocked, he has the ability to go to the United States to mix, can they still go to the United States to block Zhang Ran? But it is different for Ning Hao and other people who follow Zhang Ran, the Beijing circle has the ability to block them. If they continue to follow Zhang Ran and face the ban of the entire circle, and follow the Beijing circle to be able to eat and drink spicy food, how will Ning Hao choose?
In this way, the young director Zhang Ran worked so hard to cultivate belonged to Hua Yi and made a wedding dress for others!
Zhang Ran sneered: "Good plan, good plan! It's a pity that they underestimate me too much, and they underestimate the peak of the century!"
"I'm afraid that the Beijing circle is not only targeting Ning Hao, but also the project in his hand. If Ning Hao joins Huayi, then the project in his hand will be Huayi. Gao Jun paused for a moment and reminded, "Ding Sheng also has a project in his hand, I'm afraid that he and the project in his hand are also Huayi's goals, you'd better ask Ding Sheng!"
Ding Sheng's film budget is 50 million, does Hua Yi dare to spend so much money on a rookie director? Only Zhang Ran dared. He said with great certainty: "No, Ding Sheng is a smart person, he won't commit such stupidity!"
Wu Ruide's eyes were very gloomy, revealing a chill: "Huayi's target is not only Ning Hao and Ding Sheng, but also Bai Ling and Huang Shengyi. In August last year, Wang Jinghua left Huayi, almost hollowing out Huayi, and Huayi's brokerage business fell to the bottom. And Huang Shengyi and Bai Ling are all popular now, and they are the most eye-catching new stars in the entertainment industry. If there are good resources to support them next, then they have a chance to rush to the front line. Now is the time when they need resources the most, and as soon as the Beijing circle is blocked, Huang Shengyi and they will be insulated from high-quality resources. In this case, if Huayi extends an olive branch and says that as long as you join Huayi, we will support you with all our might, what choice will they make?"
Wu Ruide's words aroused everyone's thoughts. No one wants to be banned, the entertainment industry is changing very quickly, and if the follow-up resources can't keep up, it will soon be outdated. Huang Shengyi and Zhang Ran have a good relationship, but for the sake of their own future, I am afraid they will still join Huayi.
In this way, Hua Yi not only hit Zhang Ran, but also replenished his own strength, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone!
Century Summit is only engaged in the production and distribution of film and television dramas, and does not involve performing arts agents, Bai Ling and they are all in Rongxinda.
Another goal of Huayi is Rongxinda!
Gao Jun couldn't help asking, "Li Shaohong, what is their attitude?"
Zhang Ran knew that Li Shaohong and Chen Kaige were classmates and had a very good relationship, but he was fighting with Chen Kaige recently, so he didn't contact Li Shaohong. But now that he knows that the real purpose of the Beijing circle is Bai Ling and them, Zhang Ran must have to contact Rong Xinda: "It's not clear, but Hua Yi poached Zhou Xun from Rong Xinda, and this time they are also Hua Yi's target, and they will definitely be on our side." In the evening, I invited Li Shaohong and them to dinner and talked with them. ā
In the evening, Zhang Ran invited Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan to dinner.
Zhang Ran waited in the private room for about ten minutes, and Li Shaohong and Li Xiao arrived late. He stood up and greeted, "Sister Shao Hong, Sister Xiaowan, you are here, please take a seat!"
Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan were not polite, and after sitting down, they said with a smile: "Then we are welcome!
Zhang Ran handed the menu to Li Shaohong, asked her to order, and then said to Li Xiaowan with a smile: "Sister Xiaowan, how are you doing?"
Li Xiaowan thought to herself that she was having a headache for your business, you kid is not afraid of things, and now the Beijing circle wants to ban you, and even us will be unlucky, but she didn't say it: "What else?" Speaking of this, she looked at Zhang Ran and said, "You have made a lot of noise recently, how are you?"
Zhang Ran raised the teacup and said with a smile: "I'm very good, what a good thing to eat, some people's thinking is still stuck in more than ten years ago, thinking that they can control everything, but they are just clowns jumping off the beam, in fact, it is not worth mentioning at all!"
Li Xiaowan couldn't figure out whether Zhang Ran was really confident or bluffing, she knew that Zhang Ran must have said this when she invited herself to dinner with Li Shaohong today, so she didn't rush to find out, and said with a smile: "Since you are so confident, then I will rest assured!"
The dish was ordered quickly, Zhang Ran called the waiter in and handed the ordered menu to the other party.
While waiting for the food to be served, Zhang Ran decided to make things clear: "What is the reason for inviting the two of you to come out today, I don't need to say more, I want to know your plans!"
Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan glanced at each other, looked at Zhang Ran and said, "This matter is not ours, the key is you." ā
Li Shaohong's meaning is very clear, the key to the matter is whether Zhang Ran can withstand the offensive of the Beijing circle, if he can withstand them, he will stand on Zhang Ran's side, if he can't withstand it, then they have no other choice but to jump ship.
Zhang Ran grinned: "Last year, our company's focus was on the Internet, which is related to the future of our entire company, so there was no effort in film and television, only two movies." This year is different, we will make full efforts in film and television. So far, we have signed several directors, including Gao Xixi, Kong Sheng of Mountain Shadow, and recently we are in talks with a film and television company to buy this company. This year, we will be launching several TV series, including the sci-fi drama "Providence", and the mainland version of "Meteor Garden", and this time I went to Japan and bought the remake rights of "Meteor Garden". On top of that, we're ready to make five or six films, and now three have been finalized!"
Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan glanced at each other, and they both showed shocked expressions, and it was right not to be busy with Zhang Ran. Although they don't know that Zhang Ran's "Providence" is a story, it is very attractive just by a few words of science fiction drama; followed by the mainland version of "Meteor Garden", before that, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea have already filmed "Meteor Garden", and every remake has caused a sensation, and if it can make a group of actors popular, the mainland version will definitely become popular.
And Zhang Ran signed Gao Xixi, a very popular director in the past two years. From "The Sky of History" to "Taking the Wrong Car", and then to last year's "Happiness Like Flowers", every drama is popular all over the country.
This is just a TV series, Zhang Ran still has six movies in his hands, and there will be no such good resources in the Beijing circle.
Li Shaohong was very happy: "For you, we Rongxinda will definitely give full support!"
Li Xiaowan followed: "We are old friends, we must be on your side!"
Zhang Ran smiled and nodded: "In fact, in addition to hitting me and depriving me of the resources in my hands, another target in the Beijing circle this time is Rong Xinda, Bai Ling and Huang Shengyi, who want to use the talents we have cultivated to transfuse blood for Huayi." Last year, Hua Yi poached Zhou Xun from Rong Xinda, and now he wants to attack Bai Ling and them, and we don't need to be polite to Hua Yi. I'm afraid that the artists that Huayi is getting their hands on now are Fan Binbin and Li Binbin, so it's better to dig them up!"
Li Shaohong knew that Rong Xinda was also Huayi's target, and she trembled with anger, you just poach Zhou Xun, we finally cultivated a few new people, you come again, what do you think of us Rong Xinda? If possible, of course she wants to dig Shuangbin over, but she knows that it is impossible: "Wang Jinhua took away most of Huayi's artists, and now Fan Binbin and Li Binbin are the pillars of Huayi, and resources will definitely continue to be thrown at them, how can we dig up." ā
Li Xiaowan also said: "Leaving Huayi to join Rongxinda is tantamount to betraying the entire Beijing circle, and your girlfriends and students are all in Rongxinda, how many resources can they get even if they join Rongxinda? They won't be so stupid!"
Zhang Ran smiled faintly: "Li Binbin and Fan Binbin are both ambitious people. If you tell them that I can provide Hollywood resources, provide them with top fashion resources, and let them go international and become international stars like Zhang Ziyi, will they agree?"
Li Xiaowan and Li Shaohong's eyes lit up, if Zhang Ran can really provide Hollywood resources, it is really not difficult to dig up Li Binbin and Fan Binbin, who doesn't want to become international stars like Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi! Li Shaohong asked, "Do you mean it really?"
Zhang Ran nodded affirmatively: "Really, you can write this into the contract!"
Li Xiaowan picked up the cup and drank the water in it in one gulp: "Leave this matter to me!"
Zhang Ran laughed: "Congratulations to Rong Xinda for gaining two more generals!"
At this time, the dishes happened to come up, Zhang Ran lifted the chopsticks, and said, "Come, Sister Shao Hong, Sister Xiaowan, the dishes here are good, and the chef has done a state banquet." ā
Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan also raised their chopsticks, and the dinner officially began. (To be continued.) )
