Chapter 201: Ambition (Asking for Subscription!!)
After the news of John Woo's meeting with Princess Golden boss Lei Juekun was revealed by the media, it attracted the attention of a large number of insiders, and Tsui Hark was also one of them.
Tsui Hark is filming his new film in Kowloon, a light comedy detective film financed by Ran Feng. Tsui Hark's movies have never been indispensable to Shi Nansheng.
Early this morning, Tsui Hark came to the set early, and as soon as he took a scene, Shi Nansheng found him.
"Look at this. Shi Nansheng came up to Tsui Hark and handed him a newspaper.
Tsui Hark glanced at Shi Nansheng suspiciously, then picked up the newspaper and looked at it. When he saw the newspaper report that John Woo planned to join Princess Jin, Tsui Hark's face was very unpleasant.
John Woo can be said to be a very talkative friend of Tsui Hark, who met Jiang Ran at the beginning, or through John Woo's introduction. On the other hand, after John Woo came out of Golden Harvest and joined Ranfeng Group, why didn't there be Tsui Hark's matchmaking.
Now that John Woo has betrayed Ran Feng and hooked up with Princess Jin, in Tsui Hark's opinion, it is like a betrayal of himself, and he is surprisingly angry in his heart.
"What do you think?" Tsui Hark was angry, but he still looked up to ask Shi Nansheng's opinion.
Shi Nansheng's expression was solemn, he looked at Xu Hark, and said: "Mr. Jiang and Ranfeng Group are good to us, the last time you planted a big heel, others don't say that they fell into the well, there is always estrangement." At this time, it was Mr. Jiang and Ran Feng who pulled you and gave you trust. ”
When Shi Nansheng said this, he turned his head and glanced around, then leaned into Tsui Hark's ear and whispered: "And I don't believe what the media says, I don't think Ran Feng has really reached the point of storm." ”
Saying that, seeing Xu Hark's puzzled eyes, he glanced at him angrily, and analyzed: "Don't be misled by the media, Ran Feng actually didn't have much loss this time, like the Oriental charm changing hands, I think it's just Mr. Jiang's left-handed hand-to-right hand." And now Oriental Charm has reopened in Taiwan. ”
"So, how much loss do you think Ranfeng has this time? Even if the movie is banned, it is only a temporary problem, you don't think that some time ago, Ranfeng Group had high-level executives to Taiwan one after another, and it would have no effect. ”
"In that case, why didn't Ran Feng come out to refute the rumors? Tsui Hark asked suspiciously.
Shi Nansheng was a little anxious about Tsui Hark's political acumen, rolled his eyes, and said: "How can these secret operations be used to refute rumors?
Tsui Hark didn't dwell on this matter anymore, but asked, "How do you think about Wu Yusen's matter?"
"Since the strength of the Ranfeng Group has not been damaged, and Mr. Jiang has always been good to you, then do we still need to consider it? Shi Nan said as a matter of course.
"You'd better persuade John Woo too. You must know that his behavior is equivalent to falling into a well. Shi Nansheng said with some disdain.
Hong Kong Tsim Sha Tsui East Ran Feng Building, on the ninth floor, in Jiang Ran's office, Liu Liwei and Zhong Chuhong are there.
"Wu Yusen's matter, what are you going to do?" Jiang Ran's face could not see joy and anger, but in fact, he was very annoyed by your Wu Yusen's behavior in his heart.
"I've already contacted Ah Fa, and I asked him to help me test John Woo's attitude. Zhong Chuhong said solemnly.
"What if he really plans to change jobs?" Jiang Ran's stiffness was still calm.
"We will do our best to retain people and try to avoid the separation of people during this time. Liu Liwei replied with an ugly face.
After Jiang Ran listened to Liu Liwei's words, he thought quietly and said: "Retention needs to be done, but there must be principles. ”
When Liu Liwei and others of Ranfeng Group were thinking about how to retain Wu Yusen, Wu Yusen received a call from Lei Juekun on the set.
"Director Wu, I'm sorry. Yesterday I didn't expect a reporter to cause you trouble. Lei Juekun's tone was full of apologies.
Wu Yusen wants to say that he is not annoyed with Lei Juekun, that is a lie, after all, although he was a little moved last night, it was just a heartbeat.
However, after the matter was exposed by the reporter, in the reporter's pen, he described all the reasons why he left the Ranfeng Group and passed the Golden Princess. He believed it himself.
"It's none of Mr. Lei's business, it's just a reporter's scribble. Wu Yusen said bitterly.
"Director Wu, now things have become like this. Jiang Ran and Ranfeng Group will definitely have an opinion on you. Otherwise, you just come to our Golden Princess, and we will cooperate, whether it is to start a company or make a movie, I will support you unconditionally. ”
Wu Yusen knew that he didn't have much room for hesitation now, either he made up his mind to stay in the Ranfeng Group, or he simply ran away, otherwise it would be unpleasant for both sides.
"It's... I... I'll think again!" John Woo still couldn't make up his mind.
Lei Juekun sensed Wu Yusen's hesitation, and continued to say, "Director Wu, don't hesitate. What is the situation of Ranfeng Group now? You are now in the rising period, and you will definitely be dragged down in Ranfeng. ”
"In addition, in Ran Feng, you are just a director, how much authority can you have, how much money can you make? And the biggest director in Ran Feng is only Jiang Ran, no matter how well you other people do, the best resources must be handed over to Jiang Ran first. ”
"But what if Director Wu joins us as the Golden Princess? I can invest in and support you to establish a film company that you have complete control over yourself, and you have the most creative space for the shooting of movies. ”
"With the support of our Golden Princess Cinema Line, you don't have to worry about the distribution resources. And your movie is different from the movie genre of New Arts City, don't worry about competing with them. ”
"If I can support a new art city, I can support a second one. Your company may not be able to become the second in Xinyicheng in the future, and with such a company, is your position in the film and television industry comparable to that of Ranfeng Group now?"
"Think about it, Director Wu. Own company - a company like Xinyicheng, completely free and independent film and television creation space, direct income from the film box office, and power position in the film and television industry, these things can never be obtained in Ranfeng Group. ”
Wu Yusen listened to Lei Juekun's description, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and his inner ambition began to slowly raise his head, "Yes, no matter how good I do in Ranfeng Group, I am only a small director, all the film production processes must be reviewed by the production department before they can be implemented, and a small change on the set must be discussed with the producer, how can there be freedom at all." ”
"In the summer, the box office of "Jianghu Love" is more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars, how much is my remuneration? If you have your own company......"
The more Wu Yusen thought about it, the more he felt that he was in Ranfeng Group, and what he got was not proportional to what he paid. "Mr. Lei, I'm on the set right now, it's not convenient, if you don't mind, let's make an appointment to talk in detail. ”
Wu Yusen just hung up Lei Juekun's phone when he saw Chow Yun-fat coming over, "Ah Fa, have you rested?" After making a decision, Wu Yusen let go of the entanglement in his heart and asked with a smile.
Chow Yun-fat glanced at John Wu strangely, and then asked, "Director Wu, is it true what happened in the newspaper?
When Wu Yusen heard this, he smiled, and then said: "It's nothing, it's just that when I went to have a party with Mai Jia and them yesterday, I happened to meet Mr. Lei, and we chatted a few words." ”
Wu Yusen now wants to temporarily stabilize the Ranfeng Group and wait for a showdown after negotiating with Lei Juekun, so he denied Chow Yun-fat's words a few times.
"However, the current situation of Ranfeng Group is really worrying, and I don't know if the affairs in Taiwan will affect us signed artists. "Since he plans to leave, Wu Yusen doesn't mind adding to Ran Feng's blockage, if he can pull Chow Yun-fat away at that time, it will be better.
When Chow Yun-fat heard this, he no longer cared about John Woo's whereabouts and left, and began to worry about his future. Seeing Chow Yun-fat's expression, Wu Yusen was slightly happy in his heart, but he knew that this time Ranfeng Group caused everyone to lose at the Golden Horse Awards, and Chow Yun-fat's opinion was the biggest.
After that, John Woo received inquiries from friends such as Tsui Hark, as well as some people within the Ranfeng Group, and he did not hesitate to deny it.
Wu Yusen's strategy can be said to be successful, and after Liu Liwei and Zhong Chuhong of Ranfeng Group learned about it through various channels, they all thought that Wu Yusen's exodus was just a fabrication by the media, and their hanging hearts also fell.
