During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 228: Arrogant, Yang Mi wants to eat me

"Boss, Sister Li, she"

After Liu Yan finished the meeting with the variety show department, he came to Wei Jin's office and asked about her concerns.

Although he didn't see the results, Zeng Li's caution still made Liu Yan make some guesses.

"Well, it's just what you think, I'm going to be a father."

Wei Jin did not hide anything, Liu Yan was one of his most trusted people.

"Congratulations, boss."

Liu Yan's mood was a bit complicated, but she had always been clear about her position, and she had a good relationship with Zeng Li, so she quickly adjusted her mood and said congratulations.

"Thank you. By the way, what stage is the show at?"

"Run" has been in preparation for a long time. The reason why this project was launched as a priority is because the Korean version will be born next year, and Wei Jin naturally has to cut it off in advance.

It’s just that Wei Jin is not very sure whether the current domestic environment can support the birth of a reality show, but it is still possible to give it a try.

Because this kind of outdoor game-type program does not subvert the audience's understanding of variety shows too much, it can be regarded as a more suitable first reality show.

If it succeeds, it means market acceptance, and then many of the ideas in Wei Jin's mind can be realized.

"The behind-the-scenes team from South Korea has come over and the preparations are going very smoothly."

Wei Jin nodded when he heard this. This type of program is actually not difficult to produce, mainly because he has no experience. In order to help the variety show department, he also specially invited the production team of "Infinite Challenge" to come over for guidance.

The reason why the other party readily agreed is also very simple. The two parties have always cooperated. "The Heirs" produced by the Korean branch was sold to MBC, which is the producer of "Infinite Challenge". Moreover, Sunward Media also provided sufficient Pay the carriage fee.

"By the way, do you have any suggestions for guest selection?"

"Run" has 5-7 permanent guests, preferably those who are open-minded, have a strong sense of variety or have unique features.

There are not many such people in Shanhe Media, and even if there were, Wei Jin would have to consider whether to let them in.

After all, over-exposure in variety shows will affect an actor's career. Wei Jin still believes in maintaining a sense of mystery and distance between actors and audiences.

"Lei Datou and Brother Bo, they are both quite funny. I don't have much idea about the rest."

Liu Yan knew that he was the main guest of this show. In order to create the effect of the show, it was necessary to choose two familiar people who could help cooperate.

"Well, that's right, but we still need to seek their opinions. In addition, for the rest of the staff, you can make a total calculation with the variety show department."
-

The premiere of "Defiant" began. Although the investment was not large, Wei Jin still gave Lu Yang and the crew the respect they deserved.

At the scene, Wei Jin met the leading actor Wu Yue for the first time. Speaking of which, he was Zeng Li's younger brother.

Wu Yue is from the Class of 97 acting class of China National Theater, but compared to the star-studded class of Class of 96, they are far behind this time. The only ones who have made a name for themselves are Wu Yue and Chen Hao.

Compared with Chen Hao, who was at the peak of his career and was highly praised by the elite, Wu Yue's stardom was much more bumpy.

Wu Yue has starred in many male leads in TV series in recent years, but he is just a familiar face and has no reputation at all. The audience may recognize him when they see him, but they don't know who he is.

Lu Yang was dressed energetically today, but Wei Jin could feel his nervousness. After all, this was his first independent film, and the box office results would determine his starting point in the industry.

"Relax, there's nothing you can do to compensate."

Wei Jin was extremely confident when he said this. The 20 million yuan he could earn back his money would be far more than the box office just based on his reputation as a screenwriter.

"No, Mr. Wei, I'm thinking of over 100 million."

Lu Yangyu couldn't stop talking, and Wei Jin choked with one sentence.

"have a thought"

"Hehe, didn't Senior Brother Ning Hao take your script and sell it directly for over 100 million? People still have to have dreams."

Lu Yang's words are really well-founded. Wasn't the original "People on the Road" similar to "The Defiant One"?

Today's premiere didn't have many tricks, and it was soon time for the movie to play.

The ninety-minute movie has a simple but compact plot, fierce and clean fights, echoing from beginning to end, forming a complete closed loop of the plot.

The audience burst into applause, and Lu Yang knew that the box office was stable——

After the premiere, the media gave a very eye-catching headline:

"A blind man with blind eyes and a blind heart, a arrogant man with a moral heart."

Thanks to the support of theaters and the screenwriter Wei Jin, "Defiant" grossed 1100 million at the box office on its first day.

For a low-cost production with an investment of only 600 million, it is already a very impressive result, and it is also a good start for Sniper Lu Chuan.

Fans who have watched the movie have given good reviews, with a score of 7.3 on Impression.com, which means the movie is worth watching.

Many martial arts enthusiasts even call it the best martial arts movie after "Xiu Chun Dao".

Thanks to word-of-mouth fermentation and weekend support, "Defiant" grossed 1400 million at the box office the next day, 1300 million at the Sunday box office, and a whopping 3800 million in the first three days of the weekend.

This result really shocked people in the industry. According to this data, the box office will definitely exceed 100 million, and Lu Yang will become a major commercial director with a domestic box office of over 100 million.

For a time, many companies in the industry were worried. There was Ning Hao in the past, Old Monster Xu in the past, and now there is Lu Yang. The director team of Shanhe Media is getting stronger. How many works will there be every year in the future? ? Is there room for other companies in the industry to survive?

More importantly, Shanhe Media still controls the largest theater chain. Companies in the industry can't even resist, and can only watch Wei Jin eat with his mouth full of oil.

"Wei Jin's script is really good, but what's even more amazing is his vision."

Han Sanping felt a little emotional. He had invested in many directors over the years, but why didn't any of them succeed like this?

As for the threat from Shanhe Media, Han Sanping had never considered it. No matter how much money Wei Jin made, China Film would have a share. You must know that China Film controlled more theaters than Shanhe Media.

Han Sanping even wished that Wei and Jin would produce dozens of movies every year to completely promote the development of the film industry.——

"Sister Li, come and try the pig's trotter soup I made."

During this period, Wei Jin would come to Zeng Li almost every day, and occasionally put some thought into making a loving meal for Sister Li.

"Xiao Jin, just leave these things to Sister Li. Why are you joining in the fun?"

Sister Li was introduced by Zhu Wei. It is said that she is the widow of his comrade-in-arms. She is taciturn and very tight-spoken. The key is that she is good at cooking and taking care of people. Zeng Li is very satisfied. Isn't this better than Wei and Jin?

But after all, why doesn’t Zeng Li understand the man’s intentions? Seeing Wei Jin blowing the soup in the spoon again and again as if taking care of a child, and finally testing the temperature before feeding it to himself, Zeng Li's face was filled with happiness.

"Hey Xiaojin, your craftsmanship is pretty good."

Zeng Li's words were not a compliment. Wei Jin's cooking skills really surprised her.

"Yeah, then Sister Li, drink more."

"Um"

Under Wei Jin's feeding, the bowl of soup quickly ran out of water. Zeng Li also burped and leaned lazily on the man's shoulder, enjoying the rare companionship. Because she knew that she didn't have much time to stay in the country.

Wei Jin had already communicated with her about going to North America to raise a baby, and Zeng Li also agreed. It was actually Wang Fei's birth a few years ago that made her a little frightened. She couldn't imagine that if it was really exposed, What kind of bad situation will she and her children face.

"Sister Li, have the arrangements been made at the school?"

Zeng Li has not revealed her pregnancy yet and can still stay in the country, but many things must be prepared in advance.

"Well, after a long time of pushing and pulling, the school leaders finally agreed."

When it comes to this topic, Zeng Li is a little embarrassed. He has only taught the 07-level acting class for two years, and he left them alone because of the reason of "study abroad." No matter what, he is not a good teacher, right?

Thinking of this, Zeng Li looked at Wei Jin and spoke rarely.

"Xiao Jin, if the company has a suitable project, please help me take care of those students."

"Don't worry, Sister Li, I am also their master after all."

Wei Jin took advantage verbally, which made Sister Li roll her eyes, and then he thought of something else.

"By the way, auntie, are you really going to hide it?"

It's embarrassing to say that Wei and Jin have made their daughter pregnant. She hasn't met her yet, and she doesn't know if her "mother-in-law" will give him a hard time.

"Well, just listen to me this time. Don't tell her for the time being. It will only take a few months. I will handle it."

Zeng Li still doesn't know how to face her mother. It has been very hard for her mother to raise the two sisters alone these years. Because of the unfortunate marriage, her mother hopes that both sisters will have a good ending.

If she were to know now that she was pregnant out of wedlock with no name and no status, something might happen. It would be better to wait until the child is born.

"Okay, let's do this first"

Wei Jin could naturally understand Zeng Li's thoughts. It was all his own fault.

What makes Wei Jin even more embarrassed is that he himself does not dare to confess this matter to his uncle and father, at least not now.

You know, the two old men are still relatively traditional, and they have a very good impression of Jing Tian. They just regarded the little girl as the daughter-in-law of the Wei family, and Wei Jin had a child with another woman. The two old men were still angry.

Wei Jin could only hope that after the child was born, the two old men would spare his life for the sake of being the third generation of the Wei family.——

Wei Jin was a little surprised when he received a call from Teacher Jiang.

"You should be the first to participate in this year's defense. With you here, no one else will dare to take the lead."

"Uh ok, I don't care."

Wei Jin readily agreed. He also knew why this happened. The identity gap was too big.

Although they were all classmates, facing Wei Jin, they were more nervous than facing the school leaders.

"When does it start exactly?"

The meaning of Wei Jin's question was obvious. He didn't want to participate in those meaningless activities and spent less and less time with Zeng Li.

"Let's go at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Don't be late."

"rest assured."

The news that Wei Jin was the first to answer the question quickly spread on the Nortel campus.

Many teachers and professors have applied to audit, and many current students are also thinking about creating some chance encounters tomorrow. After all, it may be difficult to have the opportunity again in the future——

Wei Jin walked on campus, sighing that he was about to graduate. As for the defense, there was really nothing to be nervous about.

Perhaps the graduation season is coming, and there are many more students on campus. When they see him, they come to say hello.

"Hello, Senior Brother Wei."

"Hello, Senior Brother Wei, I am level 05 Zhang Xiaofei."

"Hello, Senior Brother Wei, I am level 05."

Many acting students who were about to graduate had the courage to say hello to Wei Jin, after all, the latter was a big boss in the industry.

The competition in the entertainment industry is too fierce. If they can successfully sign a contract with Shanhe Media, at least in the initial stage, their resources will no longer be lacking. Didn’t you see that the few lucky people who signed the contract before have already made their mark?

Although Wei Jin understands their thoughts, it is a pity that Nortel's student resources have really become worse and worse in recent years, and Shanhe Media is destined to be unable to sign so many people.

While he was thinking, a voice startled him, and when he looked closely, he saw it was Dami Mi.

"Is "Red Mansions" finished?"

After the filming of Fairy Sword was completed, Yang Mi joined the crew of Red Mansion, and Li Xiaowan was quite good to her.

"No, but my role is finished, so I'm back to prepare for graduation."

Yang Mi was dressed very beautifully today, which highlighted her advantages. Now she leaned closer while talking. Wei Jin was a little uncomfortable, after all, he was watching her change.

"I almost forgot, you are also in level 05. You debuted too early. I thought you had graduated long ago."

"What's the point of debuting early? It's not just trying to make a fool of yourself. Bai Bin from my senior company is doing much better than me."

Yang Mi's tone was a little sour. When it came to domestic female artists, who she envied the most was Jing Tian.

Next is Bai Bin, an artist with no academic background. She was only an assistant to Wei Jin and was highly praised. Now she is a stable second-tier female star. In terms of popularity and popularity, she is definitely stronger than Yang Mi.

Speaking of which, Yang Mi regrets that when Shanhe Media first launched artist management, he did not take the initiative to take that step because of the contract. Now it is even more difficult to join.

But she made up her mind today and must try hard. Taking a deep breath, Yang Mi said:

"Brother, when my contract expires, can I sign with your company?"

"You're already famous, why would you sign it to me? The example you just gave is wrong, Xiaobai."

"Brother, I can do it too."

Before Wei Jin finished speaking, Yang Mi interrupted him with a firm look on his face.

"Brother, whatever she can do, I can do."

As if she was afraid that Wei Jin wouldn't understand what she meant, Yang Mi added a special sentence, and then looked directly at Wei Jin, expecting an answer. She didn't believe it, she was really so unattractive.

Wei Jin didn't expect that Yang Mi would be so bold as to take the initiative and ask for his unspoken rules. Isn't this entertainment industry at the time of crazy involution?

But as soon as I thought about it, I felt relieved. For a woman with a strong ambition like Yang Mi, it doesn't matter who she sleeps with, but whether she has the resources is important.

"Come to the company to talk when you have time. I have to go to the defense now."
