Chapter 19: The Black Cauldron

The editor-in-chief of the "Morning Post" was beaten!

Shen Chengdong, the editor-in-chief of "Morning Post", who has been praising "Nightclub" in the news and stepping on "Covering the Sky with One Hand", was attacked by several unknown people on the way to work, and Shen Chengdong was seriously injured and hospitalized.

After Shen Chengdong was hospitalized, "Morning Post" quickly published an article.

"Cheng Dong is very easy-going and has a good relationship with everyone. The beating may have been due to work reasons, and the report he wrote recently may have offended some people. We strongly condemn it. But no matter what, we will stick to the bottom line as a journalist and will never bow to these evil forces. ”

Although the article does not explicitly state who they offended, it is clear who they offended by referring to the recent article published by the "Morning Post". Then Deng Guangrong and Ye Jianren were once again pushed to the forefront.

Not long after the news report came out, Ye Jianren received a call from Zeng Zhiwei.

"Hey, Luo Han Guo, what's the matter?" Ye Jianren asked.

"Ye Sheng, did you do this?" Zeng Zhiwei asked.

"What's the matter?" Ye Jianren asked with a confused expression.

"It's the beating of Shen Chengdong, the editor-in-chief of the Morning Post!" Zeng Zhiwei said.

"How could it be that I did it!" Ye Jianren shouted, "Didn't Deng Guangrong beat him?"

"Brother Rong's movies have been painted for more than a week. Zeng Zhiwei said, "If you want to fight, you will fight it a long time ago." ”

Ye Jianren thought about it and felt that he was also domineering to Deng Guangrong, if he really wanted to fight, I am afraid that he would have started a long time ago, and he would not wait until now.

"Even if he didn't beat me, what does it have to do with me, the "Morning Post" didn't offend me. Ye Jianren said, "Why do you think I hit it?"

"Ye Sheng, I heard that the attendance rate of "Nightclub" has dropped recently......" Zeng Zhiwei didn't say anything halfway through, but Ye Jianren already understood what he meant.

After Bai Caiwei announced the list of winners, the attendance rate of the film really plummeted as expected, even if the number of screenings was reduced by half, the attendance rate was still only 60%.

In the eyes of the outside world, in order to increase the attendance rate, Ye Jianren will definitely find a way to publicize it. The beating of the editor-in-chief of "Morning Post" seems to be Deng Guangrong's attempt to vent his anger, but the real vested interest is Ye Jianren.

In order to publicize before, Ye Jianren even made such a thing as reporting a false alarm, although someone later took the cylinder, but people in the industry who have watched the movie know what is going on, but everyone just sees through it and doesn't say it.

"I really didn't do it. Ye Jianren said helplessly, he now has a feeling of mud falling in the crotch of his pants, and it is not but.

"Ye Sheng, Brother Rong is really angry this time, Brother Rong is angry, and the consequences are very serious. Why don't you give in to him?" Zeng Zhiwei said tentatively.

"I said I didn't do it. Ye Jianren said dissatisfiedly, "Okay, I still have something to do, I'll hang up first." ”

After speaking, without giving Zeng Zhiwei time to react, Ye Jianren hung up the phone directly.

Putting down the phone, Ye Jianren looked very irritable in his heart. Because there is a sentence Zeng Zhiwei is not wrong, if Deng Guangrong really thought that he beat Shen Chengdong, the consequences would indeed be a bit serious.

In later generations, there were often rumors that Deng Guangrong was involved in black, and judging from the news that Ye Jianren got in the past few years of studying in Xiangjiang, Deng Guangrong was not called black, he was black.

Deng Guangrong's boss is Liu Rongju, who was the king of gambling back then, and his Liangongle was prominent and abnormal in the 67s, and its influence once expanded to South America. Even if it is now declining, after all, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and Liangongle should not be underestimated.

Although he was a little jealous of Deng Guangrong, Ye Jianren was ready to succumb. I begged for this when I just crossed over, and I just asked for that. Now that the box office of the first movie has exceeded 10 million, he is almost gaining a firm foothold in the Xiangjiang entertainment circle, why should he give in to him. Don't say that you didn't do it yourself, even if you did it yourself?

In his previous life, he was only willing to make promises for half his life, and after he was reborn, he had money in his pocket and goods in his stomach, why should he be so groveling. If he really wants to deal with himself, then fight with him, the big deal is that the fish will die and the net will be broken. Even if it fails, it's just a matter of starting over, and making a comeback with so many years of memory is just a piece of cake.

After figuring this out, Ye Jianren was no longer distressed, but instead called Li Maowen to ask about the movie's attendance, but the result was that he was disappointed, maybe because the "number of advertisements" activity has ended, maybe because the movie's stamina has ended, and the movie's attendance rate has not increased much. Seeing this, Ye Jianren sighed in his heart, let alone 20 million, fifteen million are hanging.

Four days later, "Nightclub", which has been released for four Tuesdays and eighteen days, is finally finalized, and the final box office is 15.76 million, breaking the previous Hong Kong box office record set by Cheng Long, and increasing it by more than 4 million.

And Ye Jianren can get nearly 9 million according to the share, plus some additional advertising fees later, adding up to almost 10 million, which can be called a real overnight rich.

"Hurry up, bring all the information about Ye Jianren and Zeng Zhiwei. ”

"Editor-in-chief, there is no information about Ye Jianren!"

"Then don't hurry up and collect it!"

After the movie "Nightclub" broke the box office record in Hong Kong, many media with a keen sense of smell have begun to pay attention to director Zeng Zhiwei and producer and screenwriter Ye Jianren.

And Ye Jianren is busy holding a celebration party, and announced that he will take out one million cash to reward the actors and behind-the-scenes staff of the "Nightclub" crew.

As soon as the news came out, the entire entertainment industry was in an uproar again, with a red envelope reward of one million, some movies may not be able to have one million at the box office, and everyone in the crew can get more than 100,000 or 80,000, and as little as 30,000 or 20,000, which is higher than the annual income of ordinary people, which makes many people in the industry envious.

Major media have accelerated the collection of Ye Jianren's information.

"Mr. Ye, is the price you paid for this golden city horse bone too high?" Bai Caiwei asked with a frown.

"Is it high? It's not high at all!" Ye Jianren said, "I got more than 10 million yuan from the local box office share of the movie "Nightclub", and if I make a movie in the future, what I lack is not money, but people."

You also said that our company wants to develop and grow urgently needs middle managers, and I don't have time to find and dig now, so I can only use the stupidest and best way to use money to attract a wave of talents, build up the general framework, and then slowly screen, envelope, replace, and eliminate. ”

"That's what you said, but now that you set the reward so high, if the box office of the movie made in the future is similar to that of "Nightclub", will you also be rewarded with a million? Bai Caiwei asked.

Ye Jianren smiled and said: "You shouldn't look at the total box office, but how much box office I can get and how much profit it brings me." If it can still bring me more than 10 million income like "Nightclub", then why not give me a reward of 1 million?"
