Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

Nie Wei knocked on the door and walked into Wang Zhonglei's office.

"Have you finished filming "Kekexili"? You must have suffered a lot." Wang Zhonglei asked with a smile when he saw Nie Wei and Luo Kai walking in.

"It was very hard, but it was worth it." Nie Wei replied.

"Well, your attitude is very good. Being an actor is like not having to suffer. Not to mention the desert plateau and the uninhabited areas, just say that you shoot winter scenes in summer and summer scenes in winter. This is not something that ordinary people can do with their mentality."

"Haha, thank you for the compliment."

While the two were chatting, Luo Kai had already taken two bottles of green tea from the refrigerator in the corner of the office and handed them to Wang Zhonglei and Nie Wei respectively.

"This time, the movie "Turn Left, Turn Right" you starred in has already broken through 8 million box office in the mainland, and the box office in Hong Kong and Taiwan is also very good. However, the most rare thing is that this movie shows the loyalty of your fans, which surprised me. If it weren't for the help of your fans, I'm afraid the performance of this movie would really be mediocre, so I think you should hold two fan meetings to repay your fans. What do you think?" Wang Zhonglei suggested.

"Of course." Nie Wei immediately nodded and agreed, and even added: "It doesn't matter if you hold a few more."

"Haha, I'm afraid I'll tire you out. You know, you are our Huayi's baby now. I'm counting on you to help me expand the market in Taiwan and Hong Kong." Wang Zhonglei couldn't help laughing after hearing Nie Wei's answer.

However, when it comes to the market in Taiwan and Hong Kong and Taiwan, Wang Zhonglei felt a burst of joy in his heart.

These two places are still high-end markets for the mainland at this time, and they are the places where mainland stars want to make a name for themselves the most. Nie Wei's first movie made him well-known in both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong, which was also something Wang Zhonglei never expected.

"Speaking of Taiwan and Hong Kong, the company has decided to focus on these two places for your development in the next film. What do you think?" Wang Zhonglei seemed to be asking, but Nie Wei had already felt that the other party's ambition for these two places was obviously not something that could be easily dispelled by just one or two words.

To be honest, for these two places, Nie Wei felt that it would be better to let it go. After all, he knew the future and knew that the development of the mainland would quickly surpass these two markets. In five years, the supply and demand relationship between the two sides would change, just like the current bullish Hong Kong movies, but the main box office in the future is in the mainland, and this gap will only get bigger and bigger.

But nowadays, Hong Kong and Taiwan works are still the world. Whether it is the idol dramas in Taiwan or the movies in Hong Kong, they are obviously better than the mainland. This is why Wang Zhonglei attaches great importance to these two places.

"I have no problem, but good opportunities are hard to find." Nie Wei answered directly.

Hearing this, Wang Zhonglei was not surprised at all, and he also heard the meaning of Nie Wei's words very clearly. Nie Wei can focus on Hong Kong and Taiwan, but he undoubtedly has high requirements for works.

Obviously, this kid is reminding himself not to accept random roles for him.

If it were any other artist, Wang Zhonglei would have been angry long ago, but facing Nie Wei, he actually felt that he had gotten used to it, and the key is that Nie Wei himself is also very competitive. Although there are not many works since his debut, the performance of each work is very good, which is also the main reason why Wang Zhonglei is willing to "indulge" Nie Wei.

"Okay, okay, when we receive the script, we will give it to you to choose. I still believe in your vision." Wang Zhonglei promised with a smile.

Seeing Wang Zhonglei so accommodating to Nie Wei, Luo Kai on the side also smiled in his heart. This is enough to prove how favored Nie Wei is in the mind of this boss. It seems that the future company is just around the corner with Nie Wei's current development speed. Thinking of this, Luo Kai's mouth corners unconsciously rose, obviously thinking of the beautiful and beautiful days in the future.

Just when Luo Kai was intoxicated with the beautiful life in the future, Wang Zhonglei's next sentence immediately brought him back to his senses.

"By the way, Xiaogang's film A World Without Thieves has passed the review and will start filming soon. He is still thinking about you and wants to arrange a role for you. I see that you don't have much to do. Do you want to agree to it and just play a cameo?" Wang Zhonglei asked with a smile.

"If Director Xiaogang invites me, I will quit my job to act." Nie Wei agreed with a smile.

Of course he knew that although Wang Zhonglei said it lightly, Feng Xiaogang's New Year's film is the benchmark of domestic films nowadays, and the leading actors of A World Without Thieves are Liu Dehua and Liu Ruoying. Wang Zhonglei said this, obviously deliberately passing the benefits to Nie Wei.

Seeing Nie Wei nod and agree, Wang Zhonglei was happy, his eyes flashed, and finally said the reason why Nie Wei came here today.

"Nie Wei, there is actually a reason for suddenly looking for you this time. Do you remember your contract? There is only half a year left in the three-year period. I think the issue of contract renewal should also be discussed." Wang Zhonglei finally said the key reason for looking for Nie Wei today, which is contract renewal.

This sentence also made Luo Kai's heart jump. Nie Wei, who was sitting opposite him, looked calm at the time, and nothing could be seen. But if someone paid attention, they could still find that Nie Wei's slightly open hand was clenched into a fist.

You should know that when Huayi and Nie Wei negotiated the contract, the two signed a very special 3+1 model.

This model was inspired by Nie Wei's impression of NBA player contracts. It was also the first one in China, a three-year contract with a one-year option period. During the option period, Huayi could not stop Nie Wei from staying or leaving.

At that time, three companies were competing for Nie Wei, especially Wang Jinghua's intervention. Wang Zhonglei, who was eager to bring Nie Wei under his banner, only thought about it for a moment before agreeing to the contract. But now it seems that Wang Zhonglei really regrets it to the point of vomiting blood.

When he signed the contract, Wang Zhonglei never imagined that Nie Wei would develop so quickly. In his opinion, it was remarkable that Nie Wei could establish himself as a second-tier artist in three years.

And at that time, Nie Wei also realized the benefits of enjoying resources within Huayi. By then, with Huayi's status in the mainland, it would not be difficult to renew the contract.

But I never expected that Nie Wei's popularity was like a rocket. In just two and a half years, he had already stepped into the front line, and opened the door to countless celebrities in the mainland who wanted to open it but couldn't. Hong Kong and Taiwan markets.

With Nie Wei's current status, the contract issue is the top priority. Wang Zhonglei knows very well that there must be countless "wolves, tigers and leopards" out there staring at his artist, so he simply can't wait for the "selection period" 'If you want to renew the contract within the contract period, you will avoid long nights and dreams.

But Wang Zhonglei's little plan may not work with Nie Wei.

Seeing that big storm is coming, how could Nie Wei renew his contract at this time? You must know that the reason why Nie Wei signed this special-year contract was to take advantage of that big storm. If Wouldn't renewing the contract with Wang Zhonglei be tying his own hands at this time?

So there was almost no need to consider what kind of conditions Wang Zhonglei would offer, Nie Wei had already rejected it in his heart.

Just how to reply to Wang Zhonglei? While Nie Wei was thinking about excuses, Luo Kai stood up at the side.

"Mr. Wang, it's a little early to discuss Nie Wei's contract now, and it's not like you don't know the situation in his family. Last time I saw his elder, I was told that he hoped Nie Wei would quit the entertainment industry as soon as possible. Now Nie Wei Wei is still in the development stage and has not really made his mark. If he renews his long-term contract at this time, if his elders find out, the other party will probably be furious, so I think it is better not to rush and let him go. Nie Wei should develop well, and the longer it takes, the more his elders will adapt to it. "

Nie Wei watched in surprise as Luo Kai kept finding various reasons to deal with Wang Zhonglei, leaving the big boss Wang Zhonglei stunned.

However, the reason why Wang Zhonglei was a little confused was not because Luo Kai was right, but because he was wondering whether this guy was one of his own. How could he hold him back at this critical moment? It was actually a disservice! ?

You must know that the guy in front of you who is talking endlessly is actually an agent who is supported by his salary! ! !

Nie Wei was also surprised that Luo Kai dared to stand up at this time. You must know that what he usually fears most are Wang Zhonglei and Wang Jinghua, the big figures who can decide his life or death with a single word, but now he mustered up the courage to help Nie Wei block the gun. I have to say, this time he really impressed Nie Wei.

But seeing Wang Zhonglei frowning more and more, Nie Wei could obviously tell that the boss was very dissatisfied with his agent.

Of course Luo Kai could see that, even though he was scared, he knew that he had to stand in the middle at this time.

As Nie Wei's agent, he knows Nie Wei's thoughts best. It is obviously impossible for him to renew his contract at this time. If Nie Wei and Wang Zhonglei are allowed to talk directly, a conflict will probably occur based on the personalities of both parties. This This is the scene Luo Kai least wants to see.

So he has to step up and be the buffer.

"Brother Zhonglei, I think we can forget about the contract for now. There is still a year and a half left, so I'm not in a hurry." Nie Wei saw that Wang Zhonglei's temper was about to explode, and he immediately spoke.

After hearing what Nie Wei said, Wang Zhonglei didn't even bother to cover it up. He glared at Luo Kai fiercely, then put away his emotions, turned around and asked Nie Wei with a smile: "Is it because you are not having a good time in the company?"

"How could it be so? I've had a good time at Huayi. Sister Binbin and Brother Jun also take good care of me. If I want to continue to work hard in the entertainment industry, I think Huayi will definitely be my first choice. ." Nie Wei said very sincerely, and he did not participate in this sentence, but it will be unknown what the identity of the struggle will be.

When Wang Zhonglei heard Nie Wei's expression of "loyalty", his frown slightly relaxed, but he still felt a little unhappy inside.

"Since you have been treated well, it is not the same to renew the contract early or late, so why wait until the end." Wang Zhonglei seemed puzzled, but actually asked complainingly.

"Like Brother Luo Kai said, all aspects should be considered. There are my uncertainties about my own development and family reasons. But brother Zhonglei, don't worry. As long as I continue to stay in the entertainment industry, I will definitely work in Huayi." , I guarantee this with my own personality," Nie Wei replied confidently.

When Nie Wei was explaining, Wang Zhonglei stared into Nie Wei's eyes, obviously wanting to see if this guy was deceiving him. If Nie Wei's eyes were a bit dodgey, Wang Zhonglei would definitely use some means to beat him. However, what made him feel gratified was that Nie Wei said it right from the beginning and kept looking directly at him, with sincere and firm eyes, without any dodge or deception.

"Okay, I won't force you, but let's make a gentleman's decision. When the contract expires, if you want to renew it, you must choose Huayi. Of course, we will not treat you badly and will definitely give it to you. What do you think of the best contract renewal conditions?" Wang Zhonglei said, taking retreat as an opportunity to advance.

In his opinion, for a young and energetic kid like Nie Wei, the most important thing is face. Although the gentleman's decision does not have a real written agreement, it is the most important commitment for a kid of Nie Wei's age.

As expected, after listening to Wang Zhonglei's speech, Nie Wei gave a positive answer on the spot, but what he didn't see was the cunning in Nie Wei's eyes.

The contract was temporarily shelved, so this meeting was useless. Wang Zhonglei, who was a little discouraged, had no interest in talking. He chatted with Nie Wei for a few more words and prepared to see him off.

Nie Wei and Luo Kai didn't want to stay in Wang Zhonglei's office for a long time. There were traps everywhere. So when they saw Wang Zhonglei intending to see them off, Nie Wei and Luo Kai also took advantage of the situation and found an excuse to leave.

But just when the two stood up and prepared to say goodbye, Wang Zhonglei stopped them again.

Then Nie Wei and Luo Kai saw Wang Zhonglei open the drawer, took out a car key from it, and handed it to Nie Wei.

"I have privately replaced your nanny car with a new one. The old one is no longer suitable for your current status. Go and have a look at the new car now. It's in the parking lot downstairs. If you are not satisfied, call me and I will replace it until you are satisfied."

Nie Wei took the car keys and listened to Wang Zhonglei's words. He couldn't help but sigh at the big boss's generosity.

After all, he had just declined the contract extension. The other party did not say anything to slap him, but even replaced his nanny car. From Wang Zhonglei's tone, this car must be good. If it was an ordinary star, the boss's action would probably have moved him to tears.

Although Nie Wei was calm in his heart, he also pretended to be moved on the surface. This expression fell into Wang Zhonglei's eyes, and made him very satisfied. What he wanted was Nie Wei to be grateful to him, so that he could have more favors when renewing the contract.

Nie Wei took the key and handed it to Luo Kai. After all, Luo Kai was the one who drove the nanny car, and Luo Kai was also very considerate to leave the key of the original nanny car in Wang Zhonglei's office.

"Mr. Wang, then Nie Wei and I will not bother you for now?" Putting the key of the new car in his pocket, Luo Kai asked and prepared to leave.

But Wang Zhonglei slapped his forehead and called the two of them again.

"Look, I almost forgot about this."
