The Entertainment Empire That Started With Divorce

Chapter 120 New Company in Kyoto: Shining Star
Gu Wensheng is a senior teacher at Beijing Film Academy.

What do you rely on in the entertainment industry? Networking is resources, relationships are resources, and artists are also resources.

Although the company here in Kyoto is just an ancillary industry, it will be run seriously. With Gu Wensheng leading the students and resources of the Beijing Film Academy, it will get twice the result with half the effort.

Now that we have the artists and resources, as long as we develop smoothly, it will be difficult to make it bigger and stronger, and the prospects are limitless.

……

"Where is the teacher's mother?"

Fang Mo sat down on the sofa in the living room, and Gu Wensheng poured a cup of tea energetically. There were only two people in the house, so there was no need to be polite and formal, just casual.

"Going to play mahjong..."

Gu Wensheng didn't shy away from it, "Your teacher's wife only has this little hobby, and you don't want to play for money for entertainment."

Although I enjoy gambling a little, it still has a gambling character. Mahjong, like poker, is fine without money. It is a very happy way to relax, but what if money is added?
Once you lose control, it can easily lead to collapse.

"Teacher, don't you want to have fun?"

Fang Mo made a joke, but Gu Wensheng smiled and waved his hand, "It's okay if women don't play with money. What's the point of men if they don't play with money, so I don't like it."

"Don't touch gambling!"

Suddenly Gu Wensheng's face turned serious, "This thing can easily lead to family ruin. Many well-known figures in the industry have lost their lives in one gamble, so you have to be vigilant."

"Well, I don't stick."

Fang Mo also straightened his expression and replied.

Whether it's playing mahjong or going to the casino, he really doesn't like it. Gu Wensheng said this because he frequently bet real estate to make movies. He lost the first two movies and recovered in the third one. His gambling addiction is indeed a bit big.

It's not just gambling at the card table, it's also called betting on assets or signing a gambling agreement.

"The company is basically done."

After a while, Gu Wensheng stopped talking about the gambling issue and said: "It's just that the procedures and venue selection are basically completed, and we haven't recruited people yet."

"In the first half month before the new drama starts, the staff structure will be finalized, and the rest will come slowly."

Fang Mo nodded. When he was in Hangzhou, he had already asked headhunters to find professional managers, so that the company could officially start once the formalities were completed, and Gu Wensheng, Jiang Bo, and Xu Hao would also recruit their own people to form the management team.

This is also the main reason to come to Kyoto in advance now, otherwise I would have to wait until the new drama starts filming.

The general manager and CEO will be determined by Fang Mo.

Gu Wensheng, the teacher, will find someone to be responsible for the finances, while Fang Mo will find a supervisor, in a disguised form, the rights are crossed, and Jiang Bo and Xu Hao are also in charge of a certain section.

There is a division of labor in a partnership, and there is no dictatorship in taking power.

"Hey, what a pity..."

Suddenly, while they were chatting, Gu Wensheng sighed, "My Yiyi family is not that lucky. The matter between you and Mr. Jun Hongqin has spread widely on the Internet. Isn't it a scandal?"

"Uh, no."

Fang Mo nodded directly and admitted.

……

Artists and celebrities, whoever has no experience will be picked out and posted on the Internet. Now let's put aside whether they are in love or not. At least the two of them were once classmates and were punished.

Based on this inference, Crazy Series Junhong is the producer and Qin Zisu has been appointed as the general manager.

Recently, Fang Mo also settled in Junhong.

"It's a pity, no luck."

Hearing Fang Mo's admission, Gu Wensheng sighed again. He just missed it. Before the Spring Festival, he was sure that Fang Mo was still single. Now, more than half a year later, everything has changed, and his niece has no chance anymore.

Qin Zisu, general manager of Junhong, and sister Qin Xun of Hongtu, the daughter of the well-established Qin family in Shanghai, are all better than niece Liu Yiyi in every status, how can they compete?
But there was nothing she could do, her niece had a bad temper, and even if Fang Mo was very good, she didn't want to get married for the second time.

However, since I was little, I have never been short of money, I have been pampered by many people, I have no concept of money, and I am looking forward to a lasting love. It is not surprising and I cannot complain.

"I will meet someone more suitable..."

Fang Mo could only say this. He didn't have a deep impression of Liu Yiyi, but he could tell that the girl was very stubborn, a bit like a spoiled princess since she was a child, but she didn't have a bad temper. Qin Zisu used to be very rebellious.

Princess disease is just a bit too long during puberty.

"Yes, everyone has his own destiny."

Gu Wensheng no longer lamented, so far he has completely given up. It's okay for Fang Mo to be single, but now he has secretly made a love affair with President Jun Hong and Qin, so he will not get involved.

Whether it's public or private, feelings are the most unreasonable, even if my niece regrets it in the future, she won't do it.

If you fail to seize the opportunity, you have no one to blame.

"This time I led a new class..."

After talking about personal matters, it turned to business matters. Gu Wensheng was nearly forty years old and was in the prime of his teaching career. He would still have a few more years to serve as the head teacher of Beijing Film Academy, so some of the young talents in the class could be considered his direct descendants.

Of course, Gu Wensheng is responsible for teaching directors. The new company does not need it for the time being, but it will always be needed in the future, and he will be able to become a viable force in a few years.

The current stage is to see if there are any suitable talents from the performance class, vocal class, etc., and sign a contract with a new company.

And the name of the new company has been decided: Xingyao.

The board of directors does not mention the big orders, but plans to sign some small potential or famous people to carry out advertising models and small commercial acting operations. There will never be a shortage of work in the low-end market.

Several directors are well-known, and there is no shortage of various connections, so it is not difficult to get a job.

As for the more advanced business, we have to wait until Starlight develops to the right stage before getting involved, such as finding a good artist or a newcomer with great potential.

At least get a foothold in the Kyoto market first.

There should be no problem by the end of the year. About half a year is enough to build a foundation with potential.

Otherwise, the energy of several directors would be too wasted. …

"Director Fang, I have long admired your name..."

In the evening, after Fang Mo left the teacher's house, he returned directly to the place of the banquet, that is, the Xiata Hotel.

The five-star hotel has complete facilities and delicious food. There is no need to change places. This time Xingyu has a deputy general manager named Dou Dahai.

Fang Mo almost broke into sweat when he heard this. It would be more interesting if this surname was changed to Pang.

"Mr. Dou, I am the one you have admired for a long time..."

Fang Mo greeted politely, and Jiang Bo and Xu Hao behind him also said hello. The two of them waited at the door for Fang Mo to arrive and entered the house together. However, Jiang Bo and Xu Hao had collaborated with Xingyu before, but did not know Dou Dahai.

The level of the two of them before was not good enough to make friends with entertainment company executives like Dou Dahai.

"Want to play for a while first?"

Dou Dahai doesn't have the airs of a boss at all, and Xingyu still has a market value of 60 billion. Although it is not as good as Hongtu's 90 billion, it is not bad.

At least stronger than Zeng Tianrui.

However, Xingyu is a listed company and Tianrui is not listed, so the two cannot be accurately compared.

If Tianrui goes public, it will still be able to expand to 40 billion through some expansion, but it is not necessary, er, or it is not yet time, wait for the opportunity.

As a result, the company was given a slap in the face before it was launched, and its reputation and brand value were greatly damaged.

Whether it can be launched in the future is hard to say.

"Director Fang, want to play two rounds?"

The banquet hall has a leisure and entertainment area with billiards, mahjong and golf on the ground. Dou Dahai invited Fang Mo to play two games of billiards. Fang Mo nodded and took the shot.

The person in charge of setting the ball was a female artist from Xingyu. She was wearing a simple evening dress that flattered her figure.

He looks the same and doesn't age too much. He has appeared in many TV series and movies. At least he has a certain impression in Fang Mo's mind. In this kind of situation, the artist only exists to chat, eat, drink and play, including Jiang Boxu. Hao could only accompany him from the sidelines and had no choice but to interfere.

Fang Mo is now a big business director, but he is qualified to be regarded as an equal. An artist must be at least a first-line one, and only by becoming a cash cow can he be eligible to be regarded as an equal.

Capital is the financier, the financier’s father.

"Bang, bang bang..."

Fang Mo kicked off first and the ball went into the pocket.

It's not snooker, it's just ordinary large and small balls. Fang Mo chose the small ball to continue. Although his skills are not very good, he still looks good.

"Director Fang, your skills are good..."

It was Dou Dahai's turn. He complimented Fang Mo politely and started swinging. No wonder this guy wanted to play pool. He must have played it often. Not to mention clearing one shot, but he was also able to win in three or five strokes.

Fang Mo chuckled and shrugged. If you lose, just lose.

……

"Director Fang needs to practice more..."

At the end of the first game, Dou Dahai won.

While the beautiful artist was playing ball, Dou Dahai said calmly, "Directing is also a career, and one must have extracurricular activities. Many interpersonal projects and other courteous exchanges are developed privately in the spare time."

"At our level, the venue at this time is the main seat held in hand. Look at those artists who don't become the first-line, they are just for companionship."

Fang Mo frowned, not quite understanding what it meant. He was usually too lazy to think about anything and just scratched his head.

"Technical workers!"

Dou Dahai understood at a glance that Fang Mo didn't understand the real meaning, so he couldn't help but shake his head and smile, "Director Fang, you don't have to think too much. Your ability will always be the leader here, and the one who makes money will always be a true friend."

"But I still have to remind you that this industry is not easy to get involved in. The water is very deep."

Everyone knows that the entertainment industry is in trouble, and every industry is in trouble. Even ordinary working people will have all kinds of overt and covert fights, which is very lively.

It's just whether it's an entertainer or a director in the entertainment industry, fame depends on strength and ability to make money.

The greater the realization of value, the greater the equality.

If Fang Mo only makes movies forever, he will always be relatively equal. Only when he becomes a real boss can he be truly respected. Today, Dou Dahai is valued because of his value as a director and deserves to be respected.

Otherwise, like Jiang Bo and Xu Hao, after toasting a glass of wine, they can only continue to greet other big shots. Later, they will have to toast frequently at the dinner table, which is very humble.

Artists are employees and have to please their bosses.

"Hey, I get a headache from thinking too much..."

Fang Mo was noncommittal, "Mr. Dou has worked so hard to be taught. I am a filmmaker. I understand that I can make money and cooperate for a win-win situation. I don't think too much about it."

"Mr. Dou, just rest assured."

Adding the word "we" means that Xingyu, no matter in the industry, there is no need to be so defensive.

Those who are talented and capable will get up sooner or later, because others will lend a helping hand if you don't give them a chance, so gold will shine sooner or later, and win-win cooperation is also the unchanging theme of other parties. The Crazy series is a bit too unique, so it is true. It’s because of the need to accumulate capital.

This time, Xinhua Lufang has divided up a lot of shares and roles, and began to officially integrate into the industry.

There will be more projects in the future, and more shares and roles will be released as the cooperation deepens, don't worry.

"OK, kick off the second game..."

Dou Dahai smiled calmly and got up to tee off without saying anything, but the ending was unexpected. When it was Fang Mo's turn to play, he was in a good position and won easily.

Oh, this fat sea is so interesting.

PS: 3K back payment is completed.
