Chapter 694, Little Expectation!
Of course, the above is only the result of agreeing to join, if not, the independent development of the timeline is still one of the good strategies, but it will be very much less of a partner such as the Eastern Bloc.
Even if the Oriental Group can still invest in Li Zhifan's future works, it is definitely not a big deal.
After the meeting, Li Zhifan immediately contacted the shareholders of all parties for shareholder talks.
In addition to Li Zhifan, the major shareholder, Timeline also has Hua Na, Mango Entertainment, Yuguo Music, Jufeng Pictures and China Film Hengdian Film and Television Investment Company.
Hua Na and China Film must be fine, because the two of them have also invested in Dongfang Entertainment Group, so it is just a share merger, but for Yuguo Music, Mango Entertainment and Jufeng Pictures, they will have to face two options: withdrawal or share exchange.
It was still a video conference, but this time all the participants were connected through online video, so on the computer in front of Li Zhifan, five video avatars appeared.
"I support it!"
The person in charge of Hua Na is President Mai Zeshan, who directly said, "The upcoming Oriental Entertainment Group also cooperates with us, in addition to the shares, Hua Na's music library will also be shared with the beautiful music of the Oriental Entertainment Group." If Timeline decides to join Oriental Entertainment, then the shares on both sides of our Huana can be merged. ”
"I also support that China Film is negotiating with the Oriental Group, and they have also come to us, hoping that we can take a stake in the newly established entertainment subsidiary, of course, the final opinion must be combined with the above opinions, if there is no problem, we are still a family. ”
There are too many companies in which China Film has a stake, and China Film Hengdian Film and Television Investment Company alone has more than 3,000 film and television companies across the country. The studio has shares, all because of China Film's leading position as the leader, and with China Film's shares, the film is much more convenient in terms of distribution.
Oriental Group has always cooperated with China Film, but it has appeared as an investor before, and this time Oriental Group decided to split the entertainment sector, not just to be listed independently, but to enter the entertainment industry in an all-round way, from artists to production, from TV movies to music, from upstream to downstream, to build a huge entertainment empire.
The remaining three, Mango Entertainment hesitated, and their initiative was not in their own hands, but in the hands of Mango Terrace, especially the companies under this kind of public institution, which needed to hold meetings at all levels and convey at all levels before making a final decision.
The president of Yuguo Music made a decision on the spot, and said embarrassedly: "Mr. Li, there is no way to accompany you to continue, but I hope we can still have good cooperation in the future, because of you, our Yuguo Music has jumped from a niche music platform with only 200,000 users to a large music platform with as many as 15 million users, ranking among the top five, I am really grateful." ”
"Oh!"
Li Zhifan nodded, "In this case, let's sign a share transfer agreement, transfer all your shares to me, and I will give you a premium of 1.5 times." ”
"You have the final say on the price, I believe you won't treat me badly!"
Yuguo Music originally did not have many shares, the least of the five, but according to the current valuation of the timeline, it is also about 80 million, which is a lot of open source for Li Zhifan, and he has to pay a premium of 1.5 times, which is already more than 100 million.
"Thank you for your understanding!" Li Zhifan said with his hands folded, "I look forward to continuing to cooperate in the future." ”
Jufeng is Liao Feng's main control, Li Zhifan told Liao Feng about this yesterday, and Liao Feng said that he was willing to exchange shares, but it is still uncertain how many shares can be exchanged for Oriental Entertainment.
"But I think it's better for you to hand over the management to the people of the East!"
Liao Feng said earnestly, "Your focus is still more on your own career, you want to join the East, just take stock and wait for the listing to make money, there is no need to control, it is more appropriate to hand it over to a professional manager, you are not suitable to participate in the treacherous and dark battles in large companies, and you really want to seize power, soon you will be marginalized by those old foxes, and after a few integrations, you will even be kicked out, it is better to exit the dispute early and become a shareholder." ”
Li Zhifan also thought about this issue for a long time, and made a new decision, because Timeline is not his only company, there is also a Men's Gang Film and Television under his hand, although it is a company established by six people in the Men's Gang, but it has always been in the name of Timeline.
Splitting, merging, and formally establishing large companies are all very long and time-consuming.
In this time, relying on the "Infernal Affairs" trilogy, Li Zhifan can completely strive for more valuation for the timeline, and when the time comes, the price will be higher.
Once Timeline becomes a part of Oriental Entertainment Group, the copyright and brand of "Infernal Affairs" will no longer be exclusive to Timeline or Li Zhifan, but belong to Oriental Entertainment.
Therefore, it is the right way to hurry up the filming of "Infernal Affairs" and start planning the second part now.
……
After January.
All the scenes in the first part of "Infernal Affairs" have been filmed.
But the crew is still busy, not only is they busy filming the remaining third part, but even the original second part is now starting to shoot.
Is it messy?
For actors, it may be very messy, but Li Zhifan is personally organized.
And one of the biggest advantages of Li Zhifan's fast filming is that all the shots are filmed, and there is no superfluity.
There are more than 400 other scenes filmed, and only more than 200 scenes may be used in the end, and there are more than 100 scenes left in the end, but in Li Zhifan's time, more than 400 scenes can basically be used, which is the advantage.
So even if the second part of the scene is added and filmed at the same time, it will not cause any trouble to the actors - because they take on other scenes to shoot one and shoot three here.
"Director Li, you have dark circles under your eyes!"
The life of the crew The producer watched Li Zhifan stay up late filming, and he had to worry about editing and post-production work, and he had to write the script of the second part in the middle, so he discouraged, "Give yourself a day off and get a good night's sleep!"
"I plan to do the same!"
Li Zhifan rubbed his tired face, "Okay, let's shoot here today! Tomorrow I will have a day off, I will sleep in the room, and none of you will call me!"
"Okay!"
The life producer was so excited, he stayed up a lot with it, and finally got a day off.
The next day, Li Zhifan really slept for a day, slept until the sky was dark and messy, and at first he dreamed frequently, and then it was like fainting.
When I woke up again, it was already six o'clock in the morning on the third day.
"Yawn!"
Li Zhifan got up and looked at his watch, then looked at his phone, and made sure that he had really slept for a day before getting up from the bed.
As soon as he moved, the first feeling of hunger came, so he immediately went out to find food.
As a result, I opened the corridor of the hotel room and saw three actresses walking over with big bags in their hands.
"Huh?
Seeing Li Zhifan standing at the door in pajamas, even wearing only a vest and big pants, the three actresses were stunned, "Are you ......?"
"I'll go out and find something to eat!"
Li Zhifan pointed at them, "You can't buy clothes for a night, right?"
"yes!"
One of the actresses, Xiao Lou, said, "There are too many people during the day, so I can only shop at night,"
Another named Xinxin said: "Don't say it, there are a lot of people at night, Xiangjiang is really a commercial capital, I want to buy everything I see!"
"Hehe!" Li Zhifan shook his head with a smile, "You guys, don't you think there are not enough scenes? I see that in addition to filming, all your time is spent shopping, and you have a large bag every day. ”
"Oh, Director Li, you also underestimate us!"
There is also an actress named Xiaodou who also interjected, "Don't you know our purchasing power? All we can buy are small commodities, it doesn't cost much, shopping is actually practicing walking, don't look at our big bags and small bags, in fact, there are not much." ”
"Okay!"
Li Zhifan had no choice but to spread his hands, it seems that in the area of shopping, women and men have never had the same ideas, and they can never be the same.
"Director Li, are you hungry? Wait a minute, I'll get you something to eat!"
remembered that Li Zhifan just said that she was hungry, and the actress named Xiaodou immediately began to be courteous.
"No!" Li Zhifan hurriedly waved his hand, "I'll just let the waiter send it up!"
Xiaodou hurriedly said: "Hey, what time is it, only morning tea, the things in the hotel are expensive and unpalatable, or I will go to the morning tea shop below to buy it for you, what do you say you like to eat?"
Seeing that the other party was so attentive, Li Zhifan simply accepted it, because he was really hungry and didn't have time to back down, so he said: "Anything is fine, you can fill your stomach!
"Yes, of course, there is!"
After Xiaodou finished speaking, he immediately stuffed a few handbags in his hand to Li Zhifan, "Then please help me get it, I'll buy it and get it with you!"
The remaining Xiao Lou and Xinxin saw this situation and immediately reacted.
"Director Li, I'll go with her, you can take my things too!"
After Xinxin finished speaking, she stuffed a few handbags in her hand to Li Zhifan, grabbing the small pocket for fear that she would run away first.
Xiao Lou said helplessly to the two of them: "Hey, how can you give everything to Director Li? Come, I'll take it for you! In this way, you go and buy it, and I'll accompany Director Li here." ”
Li Zhifan is one head and two big, he just wants to eat when he is hungry, but he has never thought about attracting bees and butterflies.
Look at the corridor around, every dead corner and dark place, fortunately there are no paparazzi, if people photograph him in contact with an actress like this, it will definitely be over.
"That's okay, you can take it!" Xiaodou and Xinxin grinned, turned around and ran
Seeing the two of them disappear at the entrance of the building, Li Zhifan handed over the handbag in his hand to the remaining Xiao Lou, and then said, "I'll go in and change clothes, you can sit casually!
"It's okay, when others see suspicions, they say we're on the script!"
Xiao Lou said casually, stepped into Li Zhifan's room, threw all the handbags on the sofa, and sat down with a big grin.
Li Zhifan smiled bitterly: "It's even more misleading for you to say this, what's wrong with the script!"
"Then what else can the actor and director do when they are in the same room?"
Xiao Lou smiled, but she could see that she was joking, because she really didn't close the door, and she was sitting on the sofa near the door, so that everyone who came and went outside could see her.
This can not only make people who see back and forth think that she has a very strong relationship with Li Zhifan, but also will not suspect that there is any in-depth intimacy between the two people - how can there be an in-depth development of intimacy without closing the door?
Li Zhifan changed his clothes, washed up and walked out of the bedroom again.
Finding that Xiao Lou was still sitting on the sofa, chatting and reading letters, she clicked a few selfies and took a few photos, and then sent a message: "Baby, do I look good? ”
As soon as Li Zhifan heard a few words, Xiaodou and Xinxin came back, each carrying two bags in their hands, and they were each early.
"So fast?" Li Zhifan said in surprise, "Do you teleport?"
"Director Li, you can eat quickly!" Xiaodou said with a smile, "There is a tea restaurant around the corner downstairs, all of which are ready-made, let's pack them and leave." ”
Xinxin put all the food on the table and asked with a smile, "We weren't here just now, didn't Xiao Lou do anything to you, right?"
Xiao Lou smiled: "What do I think? Director Li won't even let me close the door, what do you think I should do?"
Li Zhifan rolled his eyes and asked, "When will you finish?"
"I still have six scenes...... Ahh
After Xiao Lou finished speaking, he immediately covered his mouth, and then said, "Director Li, you don't want to add drama to us, do you?"
"Add drama?" Xinxin and Xiaodou heard it and said excitedly, "Really?"
"Hehe!" Li Zhifan tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Do you want to add drama? It's up to you to perform!"
The three of them looked at each other, with a look of hesitation on their faces, and fell silent.
Li Zhifan ate and drank, he didn't care about the three of them at all, and when he was halfway through eating, he thought that the three of them were gone, but when he looked up, he saw that the three of them were actually making a shot on the sofa, and he couldn't help but startle him.
"Hey, what are you three doing? sit there and don't speak!" Li Zhifan took a sip of milk tea before calming down.
"Director Li, it's better for you to choose!"
Xiao Lou bit his lip and said, "We are not very good at performing, which one of us do you like, if you squeak, we will, just, just ......"
"Poof!"
Li Zhifan squirted out a mouthful of milk tea, and waved his hand again and again, "Get out, get out, what do you think? I mean your performance when filming, don't think crooked." ”
"Huh?"
"Oh!"
"Uh......"
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, but for some reason, they were a little empty.
Maybe when I heard Li Zhifan say that I wanted them to behave just now, I still had some vague expectations in my heart!
