In August 2005, when Zhang Fan was practicing driving every day to take the driver's license test, and by the way preparing for further study, a big melon suddenly broke out in the entertainment industry, causing the entire entertainment industry to shake. Zhang Fan didn't have the heart to learn to drive, and even ate melons for several days.

This big melon is the famous Wang Jinghua exodus Huayi incident. It can be compared to the two controversial events of later generations.

In August 2005, Wang Jinghua, president of Huayi Taihe Company, announced that he would no longer sign with Huayi, and turned around and signed with Huayi's competitor Chengtian Entertainment.

When the news came out, a large number of artists signed by Huayi also signed contracts. Leaving Huayi. Huayi was greatly hurt by this incident.

And the reason why Zhang Fan is particularly concerned about this matter is mainly because he knows that his own Mufan Pictures also contacted Wang Jinghua privately some time ago, hoping that she can sign a contract with Mufan Pictures.

At that time, it was Wang Jinghua who Yang Ruohan and Zhang Fan went to contact.

Yang Ruohan thought that signing Wang Jinghua could instantly expand Mufan Pictures and alleviate the embarrassing situation of Mufan Pictures' lack of top artists.

For this reason, she also promised a lot of preferential conditions like Wang Jinghua. I almost handed over the blank check to Wang Jinghua.

This is what she said to Feihong at the beginning to solve the lack of artists in Mufan Pictures.

The negotiations between several people went smoothly at the beginning, and Wang Jinghua had already verbally agreed to join Mufan Pictures.

But I didn't expect that Chengtian Entertainment didn't know where to know about the contradiction between Wang Jinghua and Huayi, and also joined the ranks of inviting Wang Jinghua.

At this time, the gap between Mufan Pictures and Chengtian Entertainment is still very large.

In the face of the conditions proposed by Chengtian Entertainment to recruit Wang Jinghua, Mufan Pictures was powerless at all.

Therefore, Mufan Pictures failed, and Wang Jinghua announced that she would join Chengtian Entertainment in August.

Yang Ruohan was annoyed by this for a long time, and her plan to expand Mufan Pictures came to naught.

But Zhang Fan was very open to Wang Jinghua not joining Mufan Pictures, but he knew that Wang Jinghua had two famous exodus.

And although there are many big names in Huayi, there are not many movie coffees who follow Wang Jinghua out of Huayi.

And the franchise fee of these artists is also a huge amount of money for today's Mufan Pictures.

The most important thing is that Mufan Pictures does not have enough resources to hand over the artists brought by Wang Jinghua. Chengtian Entertainment is backed by Xiangjiang and has enough resources to squander.

These may be the reasons why Wang Jinghua chose to join Chengtian Entertainment.

After Zhang Fan was very angry when he saw Yang Ruohan's recruitment failure, he told Yang Ruohan about his analysis above.

Yang Ruohan was surprised when he heard Zhang Fan's analysis: These are all analyzed by Zhang Fan?

But after thinking about it, she returned to her true character of a strong woman. She wants Wang Jinghua to join, it is a snake swallowing an elephant.

Even if she succeeds, Mufan Culture may have indigestion, she knew that Wang Jinghua was leaving Huayi, and she was fascinated by the huge temptation. I just wanted to sign Wang Jinghua.

Now that the matter is a foregone conclusion, looking back, maybe Wang Jinghua is not bad to join Chengtian, otherwise if he really joins Mufan Pictures, it is really uncertain who will be in charge of Mufan Pictures in the future.

However, although Mufan Pictures did not let Wang Jinghua join, there was good news on the TV series.

The tribute film "Bright Sword" jointly produced by Mufan Pictures and Haiyu Film and Television to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War was successfully broadcast on CCTV.

After the release, the ratings ran wildly, heading straight for this year's drama king.

All the audience liked this flesh-and-blood and scolding head Li.

Of course, there are also a small number of people who criticize this drama for insulting the image of martyrs, but it failed to make a splash after all. After all, ratings and the audience's reputation do not deceive.

This drama can be said to be the biggest surprise of Mufan Pictures this year.

Mufan Pictures' masterpiece "Family with Children" was released at the beginning of the year, and the word-of-mouth and response were very good, but it was not enough to watch when many high-quality TV series were released in the later stage.

But I didn't expect that "Bright Sword", which was co-produced with Haiyu Film and Television, would become popular.

Zhang Fan also watched this "Bright Sword", and I have to say that this TV series is more sophisticated than the original after the investment of millions of Mufan Pictures.

In the case that the actors and directors have not been changed, the investment has increased, so that some small loopholes in the original Bright Sword have almost disappeared.

With the serious performances of a group of old drama bones and the careful filming of the director, the explosion of this drama is really not without reason.

And relying on this drama, Mufan Pictures also signed Li Youbin, He Zhengjun, and Zhang Guangbei.

Especially when Li Youbin promised to sign his studio under Mufan Pictures, Yang Ruohan immediately forgot about Wang Jinghua.

You must know that Li Youbin is a first-line celebrity in the circle, and there are only a few people in the mainland who can be compared with Li Xuejian, Chen Zhiming and so on.

Mufan Pictures can sign him, and now he is facing a situation where there are no first-line celebrities, and he will disappear without a trace immediately.

The joining of Mr. Li Youbin is the same existence as the Dinghai God Needle for today's Mufan Pictures.

And when Mufan Pictures announced that Mr. Li Youbin had joined Mufan Pictures. Countless scripts flew to Yang Ruohan's desk. are all invitations to invite them to appear in TV series. And it's basically the male number one.

However, Mufan Pictures did not immediately select scripts for Mr. Li, but first eliminated inappropriate scripts from the company.

Then hand over the qualified script to Mr. Li for selection, and he will choose whether to star or not. All choices are left to Mr. Li to make his own choice.

This is the highest sincerity that Mufan Pictures can show to Mr. Li Youbin. You must know that even Yu Feihong Mufan Pictures will require her to appear in at least one TV series a year.

And because Mufan Pictures participated in the investment in the "Bright Sword" project and the joining of teacher Li Youbin, a military drama that will be popular in the future also approached Mufan Pictures for investment.

On this day, Yang Ruohan's office was knocked open by a person, and he came to seek investment.

Yang Ruohan knows him: Kang Honglei is also a famous director in China, otherwise Yang Ruohan would not have seen him.

Kang Honglei sat down, "Mr. Yang, congratulations on the success of "Bright Sword" invested by Mufan Pictures! ”

"Director Kang is polite, I don't know what Director Kang is doing?"

"I have a drama here, which is a military-themed TV, and it has received investment from Bayi Factory, but it is still a little worse, I don't know if Mr. Yang is willing to invest?"

"Military themes?"

Yang Ruohan achieved great success through the bright sword, and I feel that after the baptism of Qiong Yao dramas in the past few years, the audience may not like to watch some TV series that love and love so much.

On the contrary, TV series similar to Bright Sword, which can inspire the audience's patriotic enthusiasm, may be more popular.

If the military drama is filmed well, the audience should like it.

But Yang Ruohan didn't immediately make a decision to invest in this drama, she also needs to read the script.

Yang Ruohan asked Kang Honglei to leave an outline of the script, saying that he would give him a message after reading the script, and asked him to go back and wait for the news first.

Kang Honglei is not surprised, he has run many film and television companies to ask for investment during this time, but they have all been rejected.

The reason why he came to Mufan Pictures was because he saw the news that Li Youbin joined Mufan Pictures in the news, and he only knew about Mufan Pictures.

Yang Ruohan sent Kang Honglei away, looked at the script outline left on the desk and turned the title page "Soldier Assault".

Yang Ruohan read the script for a while, and she didn't feel a sense of substitution, but she felt that it was a good script, so she decided to take it home and show it to Zhang Weimin and Zhang Fan first, and listen to their evaluations. The audience is too small.

Back at home, Yang Ruohan handed over the script to Zhang Weimin and his son to read and seek their opinions.

Zhang Fan saw "Soldier Assault" marked on the title page of the script, and made up his mind that this drama must be invested by Mufan Pictures. This is a classic comparable to a bright sword.

Zhang Weimin read the script and liked it very much, after all, every man has a military dream.

Under the circumstance that Zhang Weimin and Zhang Fan both suggested investment, especially Zhang Fan's attitude of must invest, Yang Ruohan decided to hand over the script to the company's professionals tomorrow to study how much money to invest.

She already understands the audience of this drama, that is, every man who has a dream of military service, even if this kind of drama is not a hit, it will not lose the investment.
