Chapter 599: Lin Chaoyang's great works(2/2)
Asia and Europe are now in the listing application stage, and Du Feng still has a lot of things to do. After he shows up, he will lose his shadow after he runs to Lin Chaoyang's house.
Tao Yumo was thinking about her "5 points" Hongxiu Clothing shares, and never looked forward to Du Feng coming again.
A few days later, news about Cheng Long's new film "Drunk Fist 2" appeared in the media, and the plan was scheduled to be released in 2.
moon.
With the influence of "Drunk Fist 1" and Cheng Long's golden signboard, the news of the movie's scheduled release immediately attracted the attention of movie fans in Xiangjiang, Wandao, Southeast Asia and other places.
At this moment, Xiangjiang gossip magazine "One Weekly" suddenly exposed the news: "Cheng Long passed the Lin family, and the Jiahe Building will collapse."
The article said with certainty that in order to escape from Lin, Cheng Long paid Jiahe a sky-high liquidated damages of HK$120 million.
It was also revealed that Cheng Long's treatment after he changed jobs to Lin's family, such as a $5 million salary, participating in a large A-level production with a $50 million investment, etc., and all the information is accurate.
The article also includes photos of Cheng Longmi meeting with Cai Lan and meeting Joe Silvo in Beverly Hills.
As early as September, news about Lin's Film poaching Cheng Long was constantly exposed, but because the person involved Cheng Long was always silent, Jiahe repeatedly denied that these news was only lively for a while and soon became silent.
What's different this time is that the details published in "Neon Weekly" are so real, and there are also photos of Cheng Long and senior executives of Lin's Pictures.
It seems that the paparazzi of "Nei Weekly" must have secretly followed Cheng Long for a long time and got the news in advance, otherwise he would not have gone to the United States at all costs.
As soon as this news came out, the Xiangjiang film industry was shocked.
The current issue of "One Weekly" was sold out directly, and major entertainment newspapers and magazines were reprinted, and even regular newspapers such as "Sing Tao Daily" and "Xinbao" participated in the discussion.
It is impossible for ordinary movie stars to change jobs to cause such a big public opinion storm.
But Cheng Long is different. Apart from Bruce Lee, he is the first Kung Fu superstar with world influence in the true sense in the Kung Fu.
Although his movies cannot be sold in Hollywood blockbusters at overseas box offices, that is because of the distribution channel, the Kung Fu comedy type movies he is good at are typical family-friendly themes and have a wide audience.
In Spain, Cheng Long's "Drunk Boxing" was released in Spain in 1978, with 823,000 viewers. Over the years, the cumulative number of filmmakers of works exceeded 3 million, while Spain's total population was only more than 30 million.
In Japan, South Korea, the United States and other countries, the number is even larger. If you include the viewers of videotape rental and family broadcasting in various countries, you don’t know how much this number will be enlarged.
Even Jet Li, who is now in the position of "Black Man", is still describing the audience that Cheng Long has praised for more than ten years.
It is no exaggeration to say that Cheng Long is Jiahe's white jade pillar, and the purple gold beam of the sea. His departure will undoubtedly cause great harm to Jiahe.
In Jiahe's history, they have once again and again launched superstars at the critical moment to complete their self-redemption Bruce Lee, Xu Guanwen, Cheng Long-.
But this time, almost no one is optimistic that Jiahe can survive again.
Even the Xiangjiang filmmakers themselves don’t believe that the current Xiangjiang film industry can cultivate another superstar like Cheng Long.
In recent years, Jiahe has been suppressed by the Lin family and lost Cheng Long again. Not to mention that he was disheartened, but at least he completely lost the qualification to be with the Lin family.
From this perspective, Cheng Long's departure can be said to have affected the future development of Xiangjiang movies to a certain extent.
There is noisy outside public opinion. Although there are many different opinions, it also clearly sees Cheng Long's departure and Jiahe's future. Jiahe's head of the family cannot understand it.
But what can I do if I understand clearly? Lin's move to remove the firewood from the cauldron is so upright that he can suppress people with his power.
He Guanchang and Zou Wenhuai worked hard for more than a month but failed to win back Cheng Long's intentions.
In a rage, Zou Wenhuai even thought about using Panwai to deal with Lin's family, but was persuaded by the rational He Guanchang.
His wealth, Zou Huaiwen and Tao Yushu, is not on the same level. In Xiangjiang, a city where capital is supreme.
Wealth is power.
Which rich man has ever seen a headache for the harassment of black men?
On the contrary, those so-called big shots who were once blinded, after offending the rich, they passed by like meteors.
"Unless you have the determination to die, you must not do this."
After hearing He Guanchang's words, Zou Wenhuai had to compromise helplessly.
The sky-high liquidated damages of HK$120 million were paid to Jiahe without hesitation.
The termination of the contract was completed as early as November, but the two parties, based on the principle of getting along well, planned to announce the news to the public when "Drunk Boxing 2" is released.
It just so happens that it can add some popularity to the release of "Drunk Fist 2", which is also Cheng Long's last contribution to Jiahe.
But Jiawei didn't expect that their confidential news had been done so well, and it was exposed by the gossip media in advance.
Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang gathered in the office to watch "Next Weekly". In addition to being angry, he felt more powerless.
It was obvious that everything was still in good shape a few years ago, so how could it become like this?
Compared to Jiahe's powerless anger, news in Lin's Film's office area revealed that the day was particularly quiet, and the employees walked quietly, and a thunderous anger was brewing.
The news of Cheng Long's termination was kept confidential at Jiahe's request. The leak of the news had no effect on Lin's family, but it was a good thing. But what Tao Yushu couldn't accept was the news leak itself.
After the news of "Next Weekly" was released, some people inside Lin who usually had contact with gossip reporters immediately raised their hearts to their throats.
They knew that with the boss's personality, this matter would definitely not be so let go.
Sure enough, on the third day after the news came to the newspaper, a mixed-race named Alice in the Overseas Distribution Department was fired, and her team leader Zhong Minghua was fired.
Huo Yaoting, deputy director of the Overseas Distribution Department, assumed the responsibility of management in a strict manner and was demoted.
The incident happened when Zhong Minghua was pursuing Alice. While the two were chatting, he revealed that Cheng Long was going to the United States to negotiate a new film with Joe Silvo. Alice sold the news to paparazzi.
In addition to Lin's internal punishment measures, the Ministry of Justice also launched a lawsuit against Alice, the culprit. Such harsh measures immediately made Lin's family feel solemn.
Working in entertainment companies, especially in distribution and publicity, it is normal to deal with journalists and paparazzi.
But Cheng Long's signing matter was a news that Tao Yushu repeatedly reminded him not to leak. Since the news spread, it means that someone did not take her as the boss seriously.
If you have the money but are disobedient, don’t blame Tao Yushu for killing the chicken and monkey.
As for how pitiful Alice was, and how her life would be in the future, she didn't care.
From the moment she dared to sell the interests of Lin, this person was the enemy of Lin.
Treat the enemy with ruthlessness as the autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves.
On December 7, after four days of silence, Jiahe announced a press conference. Entertainment reporters from all over Hong Kong were moved and almost squeezed out the banquet hall of the Peninsula Hotel.
At the press conference, Cheng Long sat in the center of the stage. He Guanchang, one of the people who were talking to Jiahe, was sitting next to him. Both of them were serious and slightly sad.
"". - Sitting here today, my heart is mixed. Everyone should have seen the news from the past few days. The purpose of holding this press conference today is to announce that I, Cheng Long, will end my 13-year cooperation with Jiawei.
At this moment, the only thing I want to do is to express my gratitude to Jiawei.
Looking back on the 13 years of cooperation, meeting Jiahe, meeting godfather and Zou Sheng is the luckiest thing in my life—”
Cheng Long's speech was written by Lin San's Public Relations Department. It mainly features "Thank you for your destiny, thank you for yours (Jiahe)", which reflects the wishes of both parties to peaceful Asians.
When he spoke, He Guanchang, who was standing aside, was filled with sadness, and then another sensational speech, almost setting off the atmosphere at the press conference into "Art Life".
Finally, the two hugged each other and shed tears on the spot.
The reporters' shutters flashed wildly, and they caught this touching scene, which became the cover of major entertainment newspapers the next day.
However, what the news did not report the next day was that Cheng Long was almost poked into a sieve by the reporters' microphones today. Today's press conference only talked about getting to know Jiahe, and the rest were like signing Lin San, and the pay and post-split development plan did not mention a single word!
Isn’t this going to kill me?
The reporters' verification did not receive any response. For more details of Cheng Long's job change, the media can only guess. The revelation from "Neon Weekly" was regarded as the most reliable source of information and was widely circulated by the industry.
At a press conference, Jiawei and Cheng Long occupied the news page for several days, and the good reunion and separation between the two sides also became a benchmark for cooperation praised by the media.
"I don't understand. I spent all the money to terminate the contract, why did you let Jiahe have a good reputation? That's HK$120 million!"
Tao Yumo looked at the news in the newspaper and asked unwillingly.
"Cheng Long has been in Jiahe for many years. How many things are Jiahe helping to settle them? How do you know that Jiahe doesn't have a trump card in his hand?
All the winners have won. Jiahe’s lean camel is bigger than a horse. If Dog Xiao jumps over the wall, it’s bad.”
Tao Yushu said calmly.
"Can they still have a way to help? You can't find someone to use a gun to kill you, right?" Tao Yumo said contemptuously.
Tao Yushu looked at her deeply, "Breaking people's wealth is like killing their parents. Have you never heard of this?"
I don’t know if it’s Kang, Tao Yushu’s eyes and tone were obviously very calm, but Tao Yumo suddenly felt a sense of creepy.
"It's so evil." She said.
Tao Yushu shook his head, "If you can be more steady, I will hand over the Yulang organization to you!"
"If you don't want to hand over, just say you don't want to hand over. Find so many reasons!"
Chapter completed!
