Chapter 116 Zhou Xingxing Being Played Like a Monkey

"What a blind eye! Why the hell did he find Wen Zhang to play the male lead? This Zhuo Wei is also sick! If it doesn't explode sooner, it won't explode later, but it's just at this juncture."

Wang Zhonglei has been in a very bad mood these days, because "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" caused by Wen Zhang's cheating scandal was boycotted by the whole people, at least hundreds of millions of box office losses were lost.
Because of this, the people under the company have been scolded by him a lot recently, and he will be furious about any trivial matter.

"That's such a coincidence. I wouldn't believe it if Gu Zhongyu wasn't behind it!" Wang Zhongjun was much more sensible than his younger brother Wang Zhonglei. Within a few minutes of Wen Zhang's news being released, Zongheng immediately spent money to find someone to fuel the flames to help the hype, obviously it had already received the wind.

"Okay! Then let's find someone to break the news, and he will be ruined." Wang Zhonglei gritted his teeth, cutting off a person's fortune is like killing his parents. He felt that even if his own father was killed, it would probably be like this now. Angry.

"What about breaking the news about him? The unspoken rules are still playing female stars? He is a bachelor and doesn't even have an open girlfriend. It's useless to make some gossip! And even if it really ruins his reputation, the big deal is that he won't be an actor and just be an actor." Isn't it all right, boss?"

Only then did Wang Zhonglei realize that he was so confused that he even forgot Gu Zhongyu's real identity.He is not an ordinary actor, and he has never set up a good man or a dedicated lover, so the whole scandal doesn't matter at all.

"Not necessarily, what if the other party is a married woman? Wasn't Gu Zhongyu ordered to quit the entertainment circle by his father three years ago because he fell into this? Brother, we can ask the paparazzi to stare at him 24 hours a day, You can always find something.”

Regarding this suggestion, Wang Zhongjun was noncommittal, but said: "It doesn't make much sense, and Han Sanye called me last night to let this matter stop here, unless Gu Zhongyu provokes us first, otherwise don't talk to me again in the future." He fought."

Hearing Mr. Han's words to call for a truce, Wang Zhonglei's enthusiasm was extinguished. This is the real master and the nobleman of the brothers. He must listen to what he says.

Han Sanye, nicknamed Zuo Shandiao, is the chairman of China Film Group. The radio and television company is responsible for reviewing, and he can decide when the movie will be released, when it will be offline, and whether the quality of the movie can be exported to foreign countries. The power of life and death in the movie is completely in his hands, and no one in the mainland entertainment industry dares to offend him.

"Let's think about it first, how to minimize our losses this time!"

Boom!Boom!Boom!
"Mr. Wang, Zhou Xingxing is here and wants to talk to you about something." Just as the two brothers were discussing, the secretary knocked on the door and came in.

"What is he doing here? While the film is still in theaters, he, the director, should go to participate in the road show to cooperate with the publicity. Why is he always running to our place? Forget it, let him come in!"

Zhou Xingxing, who was a little tired with white hair, came in, greeted the two brothers and sat at the table with a briefcase under his arm.

"My director Zhou, why is he free to come to our company today?" Wang Zhongjun asked Yan Yuese. In fact, he has always hated Zhou Xingxing in his heart. Be an onion yourself!

Zhou Xingxing took out a stack of documents from his briefcase and put them on the table, and said solemnly: "Didn't the dividend agreement for our movie just stay on the tongue before? I asked someone to draw up the contract. Everyone is here today, so let's sign!"

The Wang family brothers were calm on the surface, but they were very puzzled in their hearts: Isn't this old boy always stupid? Why did he suddenly think of this?

"Although our film has been affected a lot because of Wen Zhang's incident, even according to the current box office trend, it will not be less than 5 million. According to the previous discussion, as long as the box office exceeds 8000 million, I will pay [-] million. I believe the two bosses will not forget about the dividends, right?"

The Wang family brothers looked at each other, and started chatting with each other tacitly.

"Master Xing, you are so serious, can we still fool you? A gentleman is hard to follow. It doesn't make any difference whether you sign this agreement or not?"

"That's right, Director Zhou, it's boring if you make it so serious."

Zhou Xingxing didn't really trust the person who called. After all, how could such a big company as Huayi rely on himself?But now, after seeing that he took out the contract, he had to believe the vague attitude of the two brothers!

"Boss Wang, I also have a big family to support here. It's better to sign, so that my employees will feel more at ease. Since you don't plan to renege on your debts, it's okay to sign the contract."

Speaking of which, it would be impolite not to sign!
Without saying anything, Wang Zhongjun took the contract and opened it to read a few pages, then threw it back to Zhou Xingxing: "Mr. Zhou, there is something wrong with your contract!"

"what happened?"

"We agreed at the time that if the box office exceeds 8000 million, there will be dividends. Your contract says that if the total box office exceeds [-] million, there will be [-] million. Isn't this bullying honest people?"

"what!"

Zhou Xingxing stood up directly from his seat, looking at the Wang family brothers in disbelief.

The box office of the split account exceeds [-] million, that is, the film has to be similar to "Avatar" to get the dividend. Who the hell is bullying the honest people?
"President Wang, don't laugh at all!" Zhou Xingxing was so out of breath that he uttered his hometown dialect in a fit of anger!

"We're not kidding. We spent more than [-] million yuan in the investment of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons". If the total box office box office is [-] million yuan and we give you so much dividends, what else do we earn? Thinking about it, we know it's impossible!"

The box office of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" was not as good as expected, and the company invested tens of millions in promotional expenses in the early stage. With such a high cost, it is impossible to pay dividends to Zhou Xingxing anyway.

"If Mr. Zhou feels that the director's salary is not enough, we are willing to subsidize a few million more to you, but the 8000 million dividend is designated impossible, unless the box office of the final distribution exceeds [-] million."

Are you begging for food?
Zhou Xingxing doesn't plan to argue with the two brothers anymore, this is simply playing with people like monkeys, if he stays in this place for a second longer, he will look like an idiot!
"In that case, let's see you in court!"

"I'm willing to accompany you." Wang Zhonglei almost couldn't hold back his laughter. They are sure to win this case. It seems that this week Xingxing not only doesn't understand movies, but also doesn't understand the law.

Not even wanting to say goodbye, Zhou Xingxing left in a huff.

"Shame!" Wang Zhonglei cursed again after watching Zhou Xingxing slam the door away.

After leaving Huayi, Zhou Xingxing contacted a lawyer to sue the Wang family brothers, and at the same time gave orders to the people in the studio to stop all publicity work on "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" and delete all Weibo, as if he had never filmed this movie. Movie!

Just as Zhou Xingxing was about to leave after making a few phone calls, a fat man suddenly appeared and stopped him.

"Hello Xingye, it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm the manager of the film business department of Zongheng Film and Television. My name is Gong Geer. Our company has a film project and would like to invite you to cooperate."
