Volume 1 Chapter 127 Choice
It's been more than half an hour since they were separated, Ye Yuqing still couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart, under the sudden drizzle, bathed in the cool sea breeze, and walked back to her residence, her eyes were full of excitement when she looked at her left rib crossbody backpack from time to time, just because at this moment she was lying quietly in her orange Hermes backpack document bag.
It's been almost half a month, and since half a month ago, Princess Zou Chongxing of Golden Harvest took the initiative to contact her and wanted to invite her to join Golden Harvest.
At first, Ye Yuqing just went to meet Zou Chongxing with curiosity. Moreover, when they met for the first time, Golden Harvest's contract for her was similar to Lin Xiaozhi's, and after signing Golden Harvest for three years, Golden Harvest arranged three movies for her with a total salary of 3 million, which had almost no attraction to her. At least the contract prepared by Lin Xiaozhi for her, as well as the box office dividends, is better than Golden Harvest.
The first visit was frustrated, and Ye Yuqing originally thought that Jiahe would not come to the door again, but she still misjudged Jiahe's interest in her Zou Chongxing contacted her for the first time to no avail, and appeared in front of her a few days later, and brought Jiahe's new contract. It's still a three-year sign, but it's a different kind of exquisiteness. Golden Harvest increased her salary a little, and was willing to use four million in three years to sign her to make at least three movies for Golden Harvest, and Zou Chongxing also promised her that as long as she signed a contract, she would find the most suitable script for her within a month with Golden Harvest, and neither the script nor the director would choose anyone randomly.
This contract, Ye Yuqing is actually moved. The conditions given by Golden Harvest are not bad, and they are one million higher than what Lin Xiaozhi promised her. However, out of expectation of Lin Xiaozhi's promised box office dividends and New Asia, she did not accept the contract immediately, but only told Zou Chongxing that she would think about it before replying, and at the same time, she began to treat the New Asia contract given to him by Lin Xiaozhi coldly.
She has been with that wealthy man for a while, and now she will not underestimate that man's wisdom anymore. She didn't believe that he couldn't understand what it meant. Yes, there is a way to shop around, and Ye Yuqing is still waiting for Xinya to give her a better contract.
It's just that she didn't expect that after her many hints, a week passed in a blink of an eye, and there was no news of the new Asia New contract she was waiting for, but she unexpectedly got a brand new contract from Golden Harvest, who couldn't understand her attitude and thought she was dissatisfied with the contract, a contract that made her completely moved.
signed a three-year contract with Golden Harvest, Golden Harvest arranged at least three movies for her, the first film was paid 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars, and then the two films were paid together equivalent to Golden Harvest signing her for three years with a sky-high contract of 5.5 million. At the same time, in terms of advertising endorsements and other shares, Golden Harvest has also made huge concessions, directly reducing the 30% of the previous contract to and once she signs the contract, she will immediately get an advance payment of 1 million from Golden Harvest. This is a real superstar treatment, although Ye Yuqing also doubts in her heart, how could Golden Harvest give her such a generous treatment for an artist who has only made two erotic films. But there was one thing that couldn't be denied, she was completely moved
"I'm afraid this is the best condition that Golden Harvest can give, do you want to sign it?"
Ye Yuqing was still a little hesitant in her heart, although her mind had already flown to Jiahe, but it was not easy to pay such a big price to tie up a wealthy family, which made her give up suddenly, and she was somewhat reluctant in her heart. Sleeping in the same bed dozens of times, Ye Yuqing knew very well how heavy New Asia was in the minds of that wealthy family. Naturally, she understands that once she signs a contract with Golden Harvest, I am afraid that the friendship between the two will really come to an end.
"No, you have to calm down at this time, Ye Yuqing. Wait two more days to see what treatment Xinya can give, it seems that he didn't understand the hint some time ago? Why is it so slow, there is no news until now...... Or, do you really think that I, Ye Yuqing, will not sign it? ”
In the spring rain, the wet and cool sea breeze blew on her cheeks, Ye Yuqing reached out to wipe the water droplets on her cheeks, but the person suddenly patted her face and said to herself in her heart.
's father died early, the eldest brother was like a father, under the protection of the eldest brother Ye Zhiming, until Ye Zhiming went bankrupt a few years ago, she lived a rich life like brocade clothes and jade food. But she is also a stubborn person, after Ye Zhiming went bankrupt a few years ago, she has never suffered since she was a child, and she really lived a hard life. It was also those two years that made her realize that even her eldest brother could not shelter her for a lifetime, and other people's things belonged to others after all, not her Ye Yuqing's.
It was this realization that made her begin to miss any opportunity to live a prosperous life.
It was the same before to tempt the wealthy Lin Xiaozhi to invest money in filming for her, and now she will be tempted by the sky-high contract thrown by Golden Harvest.
It wasn't a long way to go, and I was soon back at my place.
Recently, Ye Yuqing has been very popular, and after the release of "Can't Help It", the Hong Kong media faintly pushed her to the position of the hottest star of the new generation, which is also an important reason why Golden Harvest is willing to sign her at a sky-high price. With the popularity of the people, bad things also followed, such as gossip reporters
Cautiously looked around his residence for a while, Xu was because of the rain today, Ye Yuqing did not find that there were reporters waiting for gossip news in ambush nearby, so he breathed a sigh of relief, quickly took out the key and opened the door, and returned home.
I pushed the door in, and I was about to change my shoes. She saw the hallway, where an extra pair of leather shoes was placed. Ye Yuqing was stunned for a moment, and tightened the Hermes bag on her left ribs, looking a little unnatural. The key to the house, a month ago, when Lin Xiaozhi was filming, he came over at night in order to make sense, and Ye Yuqing gave him a copy. She just got the contract that made her heart move, but she didn't expect to find out that he was also here just after she came back, and she felt a little unnatural in her heart.
However, women are born actors in the end. She just rubbed her face, then took off her shoes and put on a pair of home slippers, and walked in naturally.
"I'm back"
The TV in the hall has been turned on, and Lin Xiaozhi is sitting there watching TV. Ye Yuqing greeted him with a smile, and quietly placed the Hermes bag carefully on the sofa away from Lin Xiaozhi.
"Lin Shao, you're here"
Lin Xiaozhi nodded at her with a smile, looked at her for a while before smiling and taking out a beautifully packaged box from the pocket of his suit and handing it to her: "I remember that it's your birthday, there may be some things that can't hold a celebration for you that day, so I'll give you a gift in advance."
On the day of the month, the trial between the old man and his father, as a family member, Lin Xiaozhi needs to attend, and there is really no way to celebrate her. However, Lin Xiaozhi still helped her prepare a gift in advance. He smiled and motioned for Ye Yuqing to open it, "Take a look"
"Thank you"
Ye Yuqing took his gift, "What is it?" ”
"Isn't it clear what you can do?"
Seeing that he was just smiling but didn't say what was inside, Ye Yuqing could only glance at him, and then opened the wrapper, revealing a black pure leather jewelry box inside. With a little anticipation, she opened the jewelry box, revealing a pair of diamond earrings inside.
"Raindrops, the famous Italian designer Paulo Lanka's new earrings at the beginning of last year, I remember that you like to wear earrings, give it to you" looked at Lin Xiaozhi with a look of surprise and said lightly.
Platinum and a diamond make up these magnificent diamond drop earrings. The price of diamonds in 89 is far less expensive than before his rebirth, but for this pair of earrings, Lin Xiaozhi also spent a full 170,000 yuan.
Ye Yuqing was really happy to see it, women seem to be naturally interested in these shiny things, just as men are always inevitably attracted by knives, guns, and weapons.
"Xie Lu Xie Lin Shao, I like it so much"
Ye Yuqing covered her mouth and thanked her, seeing the eagerness on her face. Lin Xiaozhi nodded at her, "Go and try it, I believe it must be very suitable for you"
"Hmm"
She immediately picked up the jewelry box and quickly went to the bathroom, about three or two minutes later, Lin Xiaozhi heard a rush of footsteps, and before the other person who was closing his eyes and recuperating had not yet opened his eyes, he heard a voice that could not hide his joy: "Lin Shao, take a look, is it appropriate?" ”
"It's perfect for you"
Lin Xiaozhi opened his eyes and looked at it carefully for a while, smiling and nodding again and again. Although he didn't like women wearing earrings, he thought it was a violation of his territory. But I have to say that Ye Yuqing looks particularly attractive against the backdrop of this pair of diamond earrings.
"Xie Lu Xie Lin Shao, I like this pair of earrings so much"
Seeing that she couldn't put it down, Lin Xiaozhi smiled and his eyes flickered a little. Since Zheng Fei confirmed his conjecture, he did receive rumors, and rumors in the industry that a film company was ready to poach Ye Yuqing, who he cultivated at a high price, and is currently the hottest young generation star in Hong Kong, Lin Xiaozhi prepared for the worst. He has also touched this woman's temperament four or five points, if there is a chance to climb up again, Lin Xiaozhi believes that ambition like her will never miss it. Today, Lin Xiaozhi brought the best contract that New Asia can give at present, turning the previous three-year contract into a two-year contract, and within two years, New Asia will shoot two movies with her as the heroine, each with a salary of 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars plus box office dividends.
The conditions are not superior, and this is also the best contract that New Asia can give now. After 8 million Hong Kong dollars bought 40% of ATV's Xinya shares, and another 4 million Hong Kong dollars of liquidity in Xinya's account was returned to ATV as liquidation and repayment, Lin Xiaozhi's remaining 178 million funds in his hands were already very reluctant to support Xinya. First of all, in order to maintain the operation of the company, the company must have at least 3 million funds in its account. signed Qian Jiale and others, and Xinya also reserved two million for them to pay for the salary.
For the rest of the money, Zheng Zeshi asked for a script from Gao Zhisen through a relationship, and then invited him to make a movie, just the expenditure of the script and director is not less than one million Hong Kong dollars, and Gao Zhisen's new movie conservatively estimates that New Asia will have to invest six or seven million Hong Kong dollars for him. After deducting these, how much else can he Lin Xiaozhi have, almost no money.
In fact, Lin Xiaozhi hesitated when he wanted to give him a million salary before, and with Xinya's current weak family background, he really can't afford to raise a big star. Now there are only a few film companies in Hong Kong that can afford to raise big stars, and the top three coefficients of traditional films are listed.
Needless to say, Golden Harvest, a veteran film giant in Hong Kong and one of the three major cinema chains, is valued at 2 billion Hong Kong dollars in assets of Golden Harvest's empire; Xinyi City is backed by Princess Jin, the boss of Princess Jin, Lei Juekun, who is also the head of the wealthy Kowloon Lei family, with a market value of nearly 10 billion yuan in Kowloon Bus and Kowloon City Construction alone, not to mention that he also participates in Kowloon Subway, a rich man worth three or four billion; Although Debao is weak, he can afford it, and the boss Pan Disheng is known as the king of famous brands, holding the exclusive agency rights of more than a dozen well-known brands in Hong Kong, several self-owned brands and department stores, and is worth at least two or three billion. Strictly speaking, the Arts Film Company and Debao should be brother companies, but the vast majority of Debao's shares are controlled by Pan Disheng, and although Pan Disheng, the famous brand of Entertainment Films, also invested 80 million yuan, it only accounted for 37. , the entertainment boss Zhang Guozhong is known as the No. 1 agent in Hong Kong, and there are no less than five or six first-line stars who have signed contracts with the remaining ones, but they are more than a film company like a brokerage company.
In addition to these few, only the three semi-film companies left are Metropolitan Film Company, Xu Brothers Pictures, Yongsheng Xiaoqiang and Xu Ke Studio Company, which can afford to raise big stars.
Although the Met's film company is newly established, who in Hong Kong dares to doubt that it can't afford to raise big stars? Not to mention, just the three words of the boss Shao Yifu are enough to block all doubts; Although the Xu Brothers Pictures is only a second-rate film company, the three Xu brothers can't bear to be the boss, but also filmmakers, well-known artists, and singers, they are the most successful one in the film industry that sells melons; Needless to say, the background of Yongsheng Company, although no one knows how much gray capital the Xiang brothers have, no one will take it for granted that the club bigwigs will only take out 120 million capital when they invade the film industry; Xu Ke Studio Company is the most reluctant one, because it is one of the subsidiaries of Xinyicheng, and with the influence of Xu Laowei and the major shareholder Shi Tian, it has reluctantly signed a first-line star such as Zhou Yanfa.
The company does not have more than 100 million capital, and it is indeed too reluctant to sign a big star, and New Asia is now facing such a dilemma.
Lin Xiaozhi needs some time to transfer funds, such as the Meiya buyout of "Can't Help It", and there are still 3 million that have not been called. "Color is Empty" is about to be released, and Lin Xiaozhi himself is still relatively confident in the movie he is in charge of, and it is expected that it will also bring a lot of income to the company. But it all takes time, and now, Xinya really has no money, so Qiu Degen is not ready to sell thirty percent of the shares in his hand to him for the time being, and Lin Xiaozhi does not force it.
And what he brought to Ye Yuqing today is the last time that New Asia has been retained. Two years after Ye Yuqing can sign a contract, he Lin Xiaozhi will definitely give her a bigger and better contract. You can't leave everyone to gather and disperse, and there is nothing to say.
At that moment, seeing that her mood was improving because of the birthday gift she sent, Lin Xiaozhi also knew the truth of striking while the iron was hot, so he took out a document bag from his briefcase on the sofa and handed it to her, saying: "The last time, I brought you the New Asia contract, and you seemed to be a little disappointed with the New Asia contract at that time. If you don't say it, I can probably guess that there are other film companies in contact with you now, which is not a big deal, and shopping is also about shopping around, and we film companies are naturally competing for their respective strengths if they want to sign artists. New Asia is not as big as the industry, but we are sincere in signing you. Today I bring you a new contract, and it is the best contract that the current company can give you. You can take a look first, and if you are still satisfied, we will sign the contract today."
Ye Yuqing didn't dare to look at his eyes, and looked at him with a look of panic and immediately looked away, but his eyes subconsciously stayed on his Hermes bag not far away for a while.
Lin Xiaozhi has been staring at her, and after discovering her eccentricity, he also glanced at the Hermes bag that she placed over there, and thought thoughtfully.
As soon as Ye Yuqing looked up, he found that he was also looking at his Hermes bag, lest he find the contract in the bag, so he hurriedly walked over in a panic, sat down next to him, snuggled up to him with half of his body, and said coquettishly: "Lin Shao, how can any film company contact me, you think too much"
Saying that, she didn't hesitate in her hand and took the contract directly.
Lin Xiaozhi didn't admit it when he heard her, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
Ye Yuqing quickly opened the file bag and took out the contract, the contract was only two and a half pages, she skillfully avoided the so-called breach of contract and legal liability, and so on, it was useless for even two minutes to just look at the key points, so she wrote down all the things on the contract, and her brows furrowed at the moment.
Lin Xiaozhi has been paying attention to her face, and his heart sank at first sight, it seems that she is still not satisfied with Xinya's contract, so there is only one explanation, the unknown film company that contacted Ye Yuqing is afraid that the contract offered is much better than their Xinya.
It seems that there is nothing to talk about
Ye Yuqing was really a little dissatisfied with the best contract that Xinya could come up with, and she was thinking about how to express her position. Suddenly, a drop of water fell on the contract, wetting the document. Ye Yuqing was stunned for a moment, and then she was overjoyed. He put the contract on the sofa next to him, touched his wet hair, pouted and said angrily: "It's raining outside, I didn't notice it when I came back just now, it turned out that my hair and clothes were soaked." Lin Shao, let's go take a bath first, let's talk about the contract in the evening, in my bedroom...... Seriously talk about ......"
She licked her red lips, which was particularly charming. After speaking, without waiting for Lin Xiaozhi to answer, he kissed him lightly on the face, but the person got up and twisted the waist of the graceful water snake and walked to the bathroom.
There's nothing to talk about
Taking out a key from his pocket, Lin Xiaozhi played with a cold face. With the sound of water rattling in the bathroom, his heart sank
glanced at the contract that was placed on the sofa, it was the best contract that Xinya could come up with right now. So she is not satisfied, Xinya really can't give a better contract.
Lin Xiaozhi was very curious, what kind of opponent was it, and what kind of conditions were given to make Ye Yuqing, who usually hides everything in his heart, directly showed a look of rejection on his face the moment he saw their Xinya contract.
And as soon as he thought of this, his mind couldn't help but think of her strange eyes before, and his eyes unconsciously looked at the Hermes bag where she was still there in the corner of the sofa away from him.
Is there something in this?
The doubts in his heart couldn't be suppressed, Lin Xiaozhi was still disgraced in the end. He knew that Ye Yuqing would not end every time he took a bath, so Yu Crisp walked over and picked up her bag and opened it, and a document bag almost the size of her bag suddenly came into view.
took it out and opened it to see, Lin Xiaozhi's heart quickly cooled down.
The competitor turned out to be Golden Harvest, one of the three old film giants in Hong Kong, and then looked at those treatments that could only be found by a few people in Hong Kong, his hands trembled for a while, and he took a deep breath, put the contract back into the document bag, and put it back in the bag.
Returned to his original place and sat down, took out a cigarette and lit another one for himself, Lin Xiaozhi stretched out his hand and pressed it on his temple, motionless for a long time like a statue
It's Golden Harvest, everything can be explained.
In his tune. Under the teaching, the works created for her made Ye Yuqing, who was unknown in the film industry a year ago, became popular at this time with two hot-selling erotic films, and the fire was out of control, and she is as young as she is now recognized by the media as the hottest star of the new generation.
stars are no better than ordinary female stars, and the particularity of the role makes stars easier to become famous than ordinary stars. A good movie with a plot, a good character that can be remembered by the audience, daring to take off, bold in style, sufficient media exposure, and not too much negative news, can meet one or two of these conditions to become a star. And if all these conditions are met, you can become a well-known star who influences an era. Looking at the 50 years of Hong Kong films, there are more than 100 stars born in Hong Kong, but how many have done it all?
Dina counts one, Hu Jin counts one, Yu Sally counts one, Tianni counts one, Chen Ping and Deborah together count one Looking at the past, Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest have earned more than tens of millions of dollars by relying on popular stars, and now another Ye Yuqing has been born, Shaw Brothers has fallen, but Golden Harvest is still there, seeing that such a cash cow has not yet had an owner, it is no wonder that they can't help it. You must know that Ye Yuqing, who was born in the year of Lu Dao, is only 22 years old this year, and it is at the time of the peerless generation, if Golden Harvest operates better, it may not be impossible to rely on her to dominate the Hong Kong erotic film market in the next ten years
"Golden Harvest"
Lin Xiaozhi said coldly in his mouth a few times, in the face of the powerful Jiahe that was dozens of times that of him, Xinya was undoubtedly competitive, with his understanding of Ye Yuqing, he actually knew in his heart that this woman would eventually go or stay.
Seeing the Jiahe contract in Ye Yuqing's bag, Lin Xiaozhi's thoughts of continuing to keep her also faded a lot. On the sofa, the New Asia contract that Ye Yuqing threw away casually put away, and he was about to take the contract back into his bag, when suddenly his mobile phone ringing on the sofa, Lin Xiaozhi was stunned for a moment, and connected the phone.
"Hey ......"
"Mr. Lin, it's me" Zheng Fei's voice came from the other side of the phone, very high and fast: "I found out who is contacting Miss Ye, and a screenwriter I know told me that recently Golden Harvest is collecting the script of Lu's erotic film at a high price." Director He just came to the company for a trip and just left, I received him, and he also asked if our company had any plans to make films recently, saying that Golden Harvest contacted him, and hinted that he wanted to ask him to make a sexy film for Golden Harvest, and the heroine was set to be Miss Ye"
Although he had already seen Jiahe's contract, he heard him say it again on the phone, and the Big Mac's confident tone of signing Ye Yuqing still made him a little unhappy.
The anger in his heart was a little stronger, Lin Xiaozhi pondered for a moment before saying, "I know Zheng Fei, you have done a good job in this matter." I have two things for you to do right now......"
"Mr. Lin, you just command," Zheng Fei promised on the phone.
"The first thing, you immediately catch up with Director He and tell him that I have a movie to shoot for him, and the script is no worse than the "I'm Crazy for Qing" and "Can't Help It" that he handled before, as long as he nods, he can start filming at the beginning of next month...... The second thing is to ask Secretary Zhou for the contact information of the former ATV artist Ye Zilin, I don't care what method you use, arrange for me to meet and talk to her as soon as possible. ”
Zheng Fei was silent for a while when he heard this, he who had been in the company all the time today, and it was Lin Xiaozhi who brought a new contract to see Ye Yuqing. Now hearing him say this, he couldn't hold back at the moment, and asked curiously: "Mr. Lin, ...... Miss Ye over there?"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Xiaozhi, who was in a mood that suddenly turned bad: "It's best and worst, I'll hang up the phone, and you can do the two things I explained as soon as possible." ”
"Yes"
Hanging up the phone, Lin Xiaozhi looked at the new contract in his hand that he hadn't had time to take back the bag, and muttered for a moment, but didn't put it back after all. Seeing that Ye Yuqing hadn't taken a shower yet, he was no longer in the mood to stay, thought about it, took out a paper and pen from his bag, wrote a sentence to leave, then tore off the page and put it on the coffee table next to him with the new contract. got up and was about to leave, suddenly as if he remembered something, he hesitated for a moment, and put the key to the house that Ye Yuqing gave him together, then turned around and picked up his things, glanced around at the house that he was already familiar with, and turned to leave.
Lin Xiaozhi gave her the right to choose, as for what choice she will make, let it be
