Chapter 619: Do you believe I’m still working overtime?

Lu Yanhe asked: "But, Sister Zi Yan, why did Hong Qi tell me this at this time? Isn't he afraid that I will tell Li Zhibai and Yan Liang about this news, and let Lin Suyang and Zhou Pingan know?"

Chen Ziyan smiled and asked, "Then why don't you think that he just wants to pass these words to Zhou Pingan and Lin Suyang through you?"

Lu Yanhe was stunned.

Chen Ziyan: "This is an open conspiracy. Why has this been talked about for so long, and why has it taken until now to really take action? Because Li Zhibai and Yan Liang just renewed their contracts with the company, the negative impact of this incident can be minimized."

Lu Yanhe suddenly realized.

"If Zhou Ping'an and Lin Suyang don't accept it, then they can leave the company. Anyway, they can't take Li Zhibai and Yan Liang with them." Chen Ziyan said, "The timing is very critical now, so in order to keep what they have, this kind of conspiracy is not unacceptable."

"Sister Zi Yan, what if I don't tell Li Zhibai and Yan Liang about these things?" Lu Yanhe asked, "Since I already know that Hong Qi wants to tell them through me and then let Zhou Pingan and Yan Liang know, if I don't want to be involved, I just don't say anything."

"Even if you don't say it, these words will reach their ears openly. However, it will save a lot of effort if these words come from the mouths of Li Zhibai and Yan Liang." Chen Ziyan said bluntly, "Hong Qi is a person who disappears most of the time and does not participate in the specific business of the company. However, once he starts to take action, it is rare that he fails to achieve his goal. He will calculate everything clearly, leaving people with no way to escape."

Lu Yanhe was surprised and confused.

"This seems to be different from the image of him I heard about in Star Entertainment before."

"He may enjoy being a lion who usually sleeps soundly but roars at critical moments and can rule for a while." Chen Ziyan smiled.

"Okay." Lu Yanhe asked, "If this is an open conspiracy against Zhou Ping'an and Lin Suyang, what about Ma Zhongquan and the others? They are vice presidents, can't they see that this is an open conspiracy to divide them and have no ability to change the situation?"

"Who would be willing to refuse the opportunity to be the boss? Who would be willing to change?" Chen Ziyan smiled gently. "As for the company being weakened, who would think that he can't rebuild the company after taking over? What's more, Star Entertainment is transforming itself and will expand its territory to the peripheral development of idol artists. Even if Hong Qi doesn't transfer other businesses to the Woodpecker Company, Ma Zhongquan will do the liquidation. As long as the actor's business is not linked to him, no matter how important this business is to the company, it has nothing to do with him."

Lu Yanhe nodded.

Chen Ziyan: "These things in Star Entertainment have nothing to do with you. This time, Hong Qi must meet you and tell you these things. Asking you to be a consultant is secondary. He wants to see where there is room for further cooperation with you. In short, he wants to see you in person, not to know you from the past or from my mouth."

"What kind of cooperation does he want to have with me?" Lu Yanhe asked puzzledly.

"It's not just Star Entertainment that needs to transform. Woodpecker is a company that mainly deals with actors. What kind of cooperation do you think they want to have with you?" Chen Ziyan said, "Don't say you won't cooperate with them. Li Zhibai and Yan Liang's acting contracts are both with Woodpecker. You will inevitably have to deal with them in the future. In addition, Liu Zhiyin and Cheng Hai, who have a good relationship with you... didn't you also arrange guest roles for them in The Legend of Sword and Fairy later?"

Lu Yanhe suddenly realized.

"Okay." He shrugged. "I didn't expect that Mr. Hong would suddenly be interested in me."

"He has always been interested in you, but he has never viewed you from the perspective of a strategic partner before." Chen Ziyan said, "He has always felt that all your actions in this area of ​​the company, including "Jump Up", were thanks to me and my guidance, and he did not attribute these achievements to you."

Lu Yanhe smiled.

"Sister Zi Yan, are you on good terms with Hong Qi?"

"It's OK. At least it's much better than my relationship with Ma Zhongquan and the others." Chen Ziyan said, "After all, we have known each other for so many years. We still stick to the code of conduct when it comes to work, and we have a good personal relationship."

For Chen Ziyan to say such words, it seems that their relationship is really good.

Of course, yes. When Chen Ziyan left Star Entertainment and founded Shihuo, Hong Qi still had a stake in it. When Chen Ziyan was in Star Entertainment, she did not hold any senior management position, but she had invisible and unshakable privileges in Star Entertainment. This must have been instructed and acquiesced by Hong Qi.

Lu Yanhe actually didn't have any special impression of Hong Qi. The only times they had interacted with each other before were when he was awarded for his bravery and he attended the award ceremony as a company representative. Most of the time, as Chen Ziyan said, he was in a state of disappearance in Star Entertainment.

On the contrary, the contract with Star Entertainment expired. Lu Yanhe originally thought that Star Entertainment would make trouble for a while, but unexpectedly, nothing happened. It was calm and ended smoothly.

Chen Ziyan's comment was: "That's because your impression of Star Entertainment's top management mainly comes from Zhou Ping'an and Ma Zhongquan. They are the kind of people who have no posture and can do anything, but not everyone is like that."
-
Li Zhibai and Yan Liang's reactions were surprisingly consistent.

"Then tell them." Li Zhibai said, "I've already said it's an open conspiracy."

Lu Yanhe: "Will this affect your relationship with your agent? If you say this, you will have to clearly express your attitude to them."

Li Zhibai: "Brother Su Yang would not let me make this choice. He is a very smart person. Moreover, even if I am willing to support him unconditionally, my contract is with Star Entertainment. If things really get to the worst, and he breaks up with the company, I won't be able to leave. He knows this very well."

Yan Liang: "Zhou Pingan is actually teaming up with Lin Suyang to put pressure on the company and retain their power to manage artists across companies within the group. According to what you told us, the company doesn't force them to choose a side, but just wants to share the power. It depends on what they think. In fact, the company's doing this is a good thing for us. In the past, one person managed all our businesses, but now different businesses have more professional people to manage them. Telling them about this is an attitude in itself."

Indeed, Star Entertainment’s approach is definitely more beneficial to the artists.

There will be a more professional team to serve them.

"However, the three of us will have dramas to perform next, so you should be careful and don't let this incident affect your drama promotion." Lu Yanhe reminded.

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Liang sighed.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yanhe asked.

"Don't say any more. I've been affected. Zhou Ping'an asked Ma Zhongquan for marketing funds for my drama promotion, but was rejected by Ma Zhongquan." Yan Liang said, "But now no one knows who will be the CEO of Woodpecker Company."

"Then there must be someone in charge of this business, right? Is there no one in charge?"

"For the time being, Vice President Xu Zhouji is in charge. However, he used to be in charge of finance and doesn't understand our business, so he doesn't dare to sign casually." Yan Liang said, "Zhou Ping'an said that he would definitely get this done before the drama promotion begins, but judging from the current situation, Zhou Ping'an may be too busy to take care of his own affairs."

Lu Yanhe: "'Liu Guang Yin' is a drama starring you and Zhang Lan. Didn't Zhang Lan approve the publicity funds?"

"I don't know about that, but Zhang Lan doesn't have such distress, her agent only takes care of her." Yan Liang said, "The company's adjustment has no substantial impact on them. She won't be short of publicity funds." Lu Yanhe: "She won't be short of money, and neither should you. If Ma Zhongquan doesn't approve, Xu Zhouji doesn't sign, and Zhou Ping'an can't manage it, then you can go find Hong Qi yourself. Now he is in charge of both Star Entertainment and Woodpecker. You are a client who can bring tens of millions of revenue to the company every year. If they can't even support you when you promote your drama, according to your renewal contract with them, don't they breach the contract?"

Yan Liang nodded.

Li Zhibai also said, "That's what I mean. If you are embarrassed to find them, I will help you find them. My movie "Fake Death" is about to be released. If they don't give me the necessary support as stipulated in the contract, then I will just terminate the contract."

Li Zhibai got angry again.

Lu Yanhe nodded, "No matter how they adjust their management, it cannot affect your affairs."

"That's really bullshit. They want to divide the power of the agent and block the treatment we should have. What kind of cooperation is that?" Li Zhibai said speechlessly. As he spoke, he was even more angry.

"Don't get too excited while talking." Yan Liang patted Li Zhibai on the shoulder.

Lu Yanhe: "Don't be angry."

Li Zhibai let out a long sigh.

"Yes, I'm not angry." Li Zhibai nodded, and he couldn't help but let out a breath, "I suddenly regret it now. Why did I renew my contract with Star Entertainment?"

Lu Yanhe: "Agency companies in this world are all similar, unless you go out and do it yourself. But if you go out and do it yourself, you have to worry about everything, which is not a good thing. Do you know how much work and worry Linghe Company has given me now?"

Yan Liang: "But you still have the initiative in your own hands. I envy this. If I didn't have enough experience now and couldn't write scripts and do projects like Yan He, I would want to open a studio by myself. Even if it's harder, I don't have to be just a second party like I am now."

Lu Yanhe: "It's okay. If you want, you can definitely open your own studio after a few more years of accumulation."

Yan Liang nodded.

Li Zhibai said: "If you are willing to do it, please guide me. I don't want to do it myself, but I can help you."

Yan Liang smiled and nodded.

Yuming, Ridge Sheep.

Chen Siqi was sitting in the conference room with a tablet in her hand, listening to a report on the International Critics Film Festival to be held at the end of the month.

"We have adjusted and modified the itinerary and related arrangements based on the opinions from last time. The Yuxi Hot Spring Hotel in Hangu has agreed to our offer, with a total of 42 rooms."

Chen Siqi nodded.

Everyone went over the details of the itinerary together, including some small details about airport pick-up and drop-off. Chen Siqi did not miss any of them, and required that these invited film critics must receive "warm, enthusiastic but not luxurious" service.

This is a perception.

"Everyone must remember that the purpose of our film festival this time is to be a gathering of a small private circle. It is a warm, comfortable and relaxing film festival."

Everyone nodded.

"In terms of movies, we still can't agree on the Homeland trilogy directed by Peter Umbridge," said He Sui, who is in charge of the screening of films at the film festival. "Except for this trilogy, the other target films have been authorized and can be screened commercially. We will open pre-sales by next week at the latest, otherwise it will be difficult to predict the situation later. We have a public discussion meeting after each movie screening."

Chen Siqi said: "If we can't come to an agreement on Peter Umbridge's Homeland trilogy, we'll give up. What are our alternative films?"

"We want to try to get Paradise, which won an award at this year's Jose-Lao Film Festival. It is one of the most watched films at this year's Jose-Lao Film Festival. If it can be screened at our film festival and discussed by film critics, it will make our film festival more valuable." He Sui said, "But this may require you, the editor-in-chief, and Brother Lu to take action. This film has not been released to the public yet, and they should be more cautious about screening it at a film festival like ours."

Chen Siqi nodded: "The distribution rights of Paradise in China have been obtained by Longyan Films. Let's go and negotiate and try to get it. If we can't get it, do you have any alternatives?"

He Sui said: "There are still a few alternatives, but they are all old films. Although they are classics, classic old films already account for half of the films we screened this time. I think there are still a few fresh films that are of interest to current audiences and have a lot of topics and discussions, which can better reflect the diversity of our film festival selection."

Chen Siqi nodded.

She agreed with He Sui's point of view.

Since the essence of "discussion" and "research" is to be highlighted in this film festival, the first thing to be discussed should be "discussable". Classics are "discussable" and so are "topicalities".

After the meeting, Lin Yu pulled Bai Yu and Zhou Mukai to stop Chen Siqi.

Chen Siqi was stunned.

At present, the three of them are the main editors of "Jump Up" magazine. Chen Siqi didn't know what Lin Yu suddenly asked her to do.

"Is there some kind of emergency at the magazine?" she asked.

"No." Lin Yu smiled and shook her head. "We do have an idea, an idea about this film festival. We want to make a special issue of "Jump Up" specifically about the content of this film festival."

"Huh?" Chen Siqi was stunned.

"The theme of our film festival this time is to discuss movies. Although film critics have many opportunities to express their opinions on certain movies in public, there are definitely more contents that cannot be shown on camera one by one." Lin Yu said, "Of course, the reason why I want to make this book is not to make a supplementary record of the film festival, but I think this topic can make the book be distributed and sold in countries all over the world. Famous film critics from all over the world sit together to express their opinions on some movies and discuss them. People who really love movies will definitely not miss this book."
