Jiang Ran's heart was slightly heavy, and he spoke again after a while: "Old Liao, maybe what you said is right." ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Ran's tone changed, "However, Jet Li's matter is not just a problem of our Ranfeng Group, have you considered the wishes of the actors themselves?"

Jiang Ran said, without waiting for Liao Yiyuan to speak, and continued: "Jet Li's current value in Asia, Liao Lao, you should know very well. If he is a Hong Kong native, with his current influence and achievements, the remuneration for a single film is not one million Hong Kong dollars, but it is not much different. ”

"In this case, how much can the mainland pay him for making a movie?" Jiang Ran emphasized the gap between Jet Li's worth and his own income.

"I heard that Jet Li's salary and bonus in the mainland are almost equivalent to an ordinary extras in Hong Kong, maybe not as good. ”

"Old Liao, think about it yourself, in this case, can those film companies in the mainland keep Jet Li? And I think it is impossible for the state-owned film companies in the mainland to pay Jet Li more alone, right?"

"In this case, even if there is no Ranfeng Group, there will be other film companies, and even Jet Li himself would not have made such a fuss if he was not willing. ”

Jiang Ran's words made Liao Yiyuan a little speechless, because this is a very simple truth, the difference between the remuneration between the mainland and Hong Kong is too big, Jet Li has been there since he became famous, and this contradiction has always existed, and it will get bigger and bigger until the two sides break up.

Although Liao Yiyuan had a clear foresight of this situation for a long time, he did not think of taking the initiative to change it for the sake of his own interests, but now Ranfeng Group has broken this balance.

"Mr. Jiang, maybe what you said makes sense. But if it weren't for you and your Ranfeng Group behind the support and promotion, how could things have come to this point so quickly?" The anger in Liao Yi's original words could be felt by Jiang Ran across the phone line.

"Old Liao, I don't deny this. Jiang Ran's attitude is very sincere, and he hopes that the matter can be resolved through negotiation and compromise between the two sides, rather than a quarrel between the two sides, and in the end, no one can get along.

After all, now that things have come to this, no matter what the final result is, Ranfeng Group has inevitably offended Yindu and those film companies in the mainland, and if the matter cannot be resolved peacefully in the end, it will be a huge hidden danger for Ranfeng Group.

To be honest, Jiang Ran really didn't think about it so much when he instructed Zhong Chuhong and others to win over Jet Li. Because according to his understanding in later generations, even if Jet Li was not attracted by the Ranfeng Group, he would eventually leave the mainland and go to the United States. So Jiang Ran didn't expect that this time winning over Jet Li would involve such big interests and cause such a big impact.

"However, now that things have come to this point, Jet Li has made up his mind, and I think it is unlikely that mainland film companies want to keep him anymore. ”

"I don't shirk the responsibility of our Ranfeng Group, and I don't want to offend the interests of your Yindu and your counterparts in the mainland, Liao Lao, the previous approach of our group was indeed not very thoughtful, I am here to apologize to Liao Lao you in advance. Jiang Ran's tone was very sincere.

"However, I hope that Old Liao you will not be so angry, we should now think about how to solve the problem, instead of angering and confrontation, that will not be good for all of us. Jiang Ran's words were soft and hard.

"The current thing, even if we Ranfeng Group stops, I'm afraid it's unlikely that you want to keep Jet Li. Since there are interests involved, everyone can sit down and discuss. There will always be ways to think of ways that can take into account the interests of both parties. ”

Jiang Ran's words are obviously in line with Liao Yiyuan's thinking, with the current strength and influence of Jiang Ran and Ranfeng Group, Liao Yiyuan does not want to break with Ranfeng Group, if there is a way to make up for the interests of Yindu, Liao Yiyuan certainly agrees.

"Then Mr. Jiang, what is your opinion?" asked Liao Yiyuan in a calm tone.

Jiang Ran was not mentally prepared for this before, but after hearing Liao Yiyuan's question, he thought about it and said: "Jet Li signed with our Ranfeng Group, but after signing with Ranfeng Group, you can sign a limited film contract with the mainland or your bank." ”

Jiang Ran can only give a general idea, whether it is a mainland film company or a Yindu organization, the reason why Jet Li is not released is, in the final analysis, because Jet Li's movies can bring them benefits.

Now that Jiang Ran has promised Jet Li to continue acting in movies for them, maybe the salary can't be as cheap as before, but it's a solution after all.

Liao Yiyuan thought for a while and said, "I'll discuss your thoughts with my counterparts in the mainland, and see their opinions first." ”

After Jiang Ran heard Liao Yiyuan's words, he knew that the other party should agree with his proposal in his heart, so he said with a smile: "Okay, it's troublesome for Liao Lao." ”

"I also need to communicate with Jet Li here, after all, in the final analysis, this matter still needs his own consent. ”

After setting the general intention of Jet Li's future contract with Liao Yiyuan, Jiang Ran immediately found Liu Liwei and Zhong Chuhong.

After Jiang Ran saw the two of them come in, he got up and walked out from behind the desk, and after sitting down next to Zhong Chuhong, he said, "I received a call from Liao Yiyuan from the Yindu Agency today, about Jet Li. ”

Jiang Ran wanted to sign Jet Li, Liu Liwei and both of them knew very well, and even the whole thing was always operated by Zhong Chuhong.

"Now the mainland has caused a lot of repercussions in the film industry because of Jet Li's matter, and Jet Li's matter is now very resistant. ”

Jiang Ran glanced at the two of them as he spoke, "In order to avoid things getting into trouble, Liao Yiyuan and I reached a general cooperation intention. When the time comes, Mr. Liu and Ah Hong will follow up and keep in touch with Jet Li and Yindu Agency. ”

Jiang Ran said and told the two of them about the idea he had just mentioned to Liao Yiyuan.

As soon as Jiang Ran's words fell, Liu Liwei frowned and said: "Mr. Jiang, if we sign such a cooperation contract with the mainland, it may have an impact on the distribution of our company's films in Taiwan." ”

Moreover, if Jet Li continues to cooperate with the mainland, it is difficult to guarantee that the Taiwan authorities will not block him. This year's Academy Award winner, that Leung Ka-fai, is a good example, he is now being banned by the Taiwan authorities. ”

Liu Liwei had to remind Jiang Ran that last year's experience was still vivid.

Liu Liwei's words did remind Jiang Ran, frowning slightly, Jiang Ran looked at Liu Liwei and asked, "Then what do you mean?"

Liu Liwei did not have a good solution to Jiang Ran's problem.

"Ah Ran, otherwise it would be like this. Zhong Chuhong interjected on the side, "After the matter is negotiated, let Jet Li sign a film contract with the mainland in his own name, and then sign an actor contract with us Ranfeng, which can at least reduce the impact on our group." ”

"As for Jet Li's acting development after signing the contract, on the one hand, we can do the work of the Taiwan authorities, and in case things are not harmonious, we can arrange Jet Li to an American company and let him focus on the North American market in the future. ”

Zhong Chuhong's words were immediately agreed by Liu Liwei, "Mr. Jiang, I agree with Miss Zhong's opinion. In this way, at least we can prevent the Taiwan authorities from turning their anger into our Ranfeng Group to the greatest extent. ”

Jiang Ran looked at Zhong Chuhong with a smile in her eyes, now Zhong Chuhong has become more and more of a strong woman after more than a year of training.

"Since this is the case, then do it according to Ah Hong's opinion. Jiang Ran happily agreed.

After the matter was decided, Liu Liwei got up and left, but Zhong Chuhong stayed.

Jiang Ran looked at Zhong Chuhong and said, "Ah Hong, I'm going to the United States in a few days, do you want to go with me?"

It's October 20th now, and the time for the global release of "Saw 2" is getting closer and closer, Jiang Ran is a little relieved and plans to go to the United States in person.

Zhong Chuhong shook his head when he heard this, "I won't go to the United States." ”

"I have something to discuss with you. Zhong Chuhong bit her red lip and looked at Jiang Ran with a little hesitation and said.
