Huayu’s ex-husband

Chapter 102 101. The third subsystem finally decided on the candidate

After leaving Tian Zhuangzhuang's house, Wei Wu rushed to the next house to pay New Year's greetings, which was his other nobleman Han Sanping.

Although the place where Han Sanping lived was not a high-ranking compound, there were guards on duty at the entrance of the community. If he hadn't sent someone down to lead him, it would have been difficult for Wei Wu to enter.

But this time I went up empty-handed and didn’t bring any gifts.

This is what Han Sanping specifically requested on the phone. He has recently started checking for gifts during the Spring Festival, so he doesn't give others the opportunity to gossip.

It's a good thing he said that, otherwise Wei Wu really didn't know what to give him!

After Wei Wu went up, he exchanged pleasantries as usual, and then repeated the rhetoric he just said at the teacher's house to Han Sanping, and Han Sanping also agreed:

"Well, your idea is very good, and I support it in principle. You can give me a detailed charter later, and then we will have a meeting to study it and see if we can pass it."

Then Han Sanping talked about another thing, which was the casting issue for "Painted Skin":

"You asked me to find someone for you before, and both Chen Kun and Zhen Zidan agreed, but there seems to be a problem with Zhou Xun's schedule.

"You also know that she has just signed a contract with Huayi. In the second half of this year, Huayi has already arranged two movies for her, "Mingming" and "Li Mi's Conjecture." The schedule for next year is even fully booked."

Wei Wu nodded to express his understanding: "That's normal. After all, Zhou Xun is popular now!"

This is really not an exaggeration. The musical "If Love" released last year made Zhou Xun win the Academy Award and the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress in one fell swoop.

She is definitely very popular at the moment. In terms of popularity, she can basically be said to be the second most popular mainland film actress after Zhang Ziyi.

And just last month, in January 2006, she officially announced her departure from her old club Rongxinda, and then signed a high-profile contract with Huayi, causing quite a stir.

In order to recruit her, the Wang brothers directly asked her to partner up with Zhang Ziyi and Ge You to star in their most important blockbuster of the year, "The Night Banquet". It can be said that they are very sincere!

As the first sister of the company, Li Bingbing probably really wants to scold her at this moment! After all, "A World Without Thieves" gave me a second female lead. This time, "The Night Banquet" has nothing to do with me, right?

Can't I play the role of Zhou Xun? Your mother's! It’s true that I only see the new people smiling and don’t hear the old people crying!

Li Bingbing was really miserable. He finally managed to survive until Fan Bingbing announced that he would leave next year if he did not renew his contract. But before he could laugh out loud, Zhou Xun came on the back foot.

However, in the previous life, Li Bing was superior in military skills and squeezed Zhou Xun away about 10 years ago.

It is said that the conflict between the two became public because of Huayi's other blockbuster "The Wind". After the movie was broadcast, the audience praised Zhou Xun for his good performance, but in the end it was Li Bingbing who won more awards.

So later at the "Wind" celebration party, looking at Li Bingbing's sister and manager Li Chong, with such a proud face, Zhou Xun's manager was so angry that he could only complain:

"Isn't it just by taking off my clothes that I won the title of Best Actress? What's the big deal?"

Unexpectedly, these words were heard by the other party, and the two people immediately started to yell at each other. Naturally, the banquet broke up unhappy in the end. From then on, the conflict between the two intensified, and it wasn't long before Zhou Xun terminated the contract and left.

Speaking of which, in this movie, the two of them acted really well together. Those who didn’t know better thought they had a good relationship!

Who would have thought that there would be such a wonderful story outside the play?

But it's normal for Zhou Xun to lose to Li Bingbing. Li Bingbing's sister Li Cie is now the deputy general manager of Huayi, in charge of the artist management department.

Sisters work together, one is in charge and the other is in charge of outside. Who can beat two against one?

However, Li Bingbing first squeezed away Fan Bingbing, and then forced Zhou Xun back, finally securing the position of the first sister Huayi, but before he had time to enjoy the fruits of victory——

When I looked back, I realized that Huayi was no longer the same Huayi it was back then. The company was so hard to come back that it was almost going to be a loser!

Then why have I been fighting this and that all these years? Laughing to death!

So Zhou Xun had just left, and Li Bingbing didn't wait any longer! In the same year, he and his sister Li Chong set up Hesong Media.

Han Sanping said that there was no schedule for Zhou Xun, so Wei Wu began to think about who should be replaced?

However, at this moment Han Sanping suddenly spoke again:

"In this case, for this role, can I recommend someone to you?

"Do you know Wu Hongliang from Tangde Film and Television? When he came over to pay me New Year greetings the day before yesterday, he asked me for a favor. He also heard that Zhou Xun was not available, so he recommended Fan Bingbing to me. "

Wei Wu immediately nodded and said, "Fan Bingbing is fine, it's quite suitable. There's no problem with me at all!"

Although Han Sanping seemed to be asking for Wei Wu's opinion, in fact, the subtext of his leadership was to appoint Fan Bingbing.

The reason why people didn't say this directly was because they wanted to appear democratic. Don't be shameless!

So who is this Wu Hongliang? Why did Han Sanping give him face? And why did he recommend Fan Bingbing?

First of all, let’s talk about the relationship between Wu Hongliang and Han Sanping. Many people may know that Yu Dong was Han Sanping’s confidant and a highly valued subordinate.

Wu Hongliang is similar to Yu Dong, of course, his level is slightly higher. He can basically be said to be Han Sanping's confidant.

Yu Dong was at best Han Sanping's favorite, but Wu Hongliang had been Han Sanping's assistant for more than ten years. I have known him since Wei Mo and have been a die-hard assistant for many years.

Of course, like Yu Dong, Wu Hongliang is now starting his own company and working alone.

After all, Yu Dong is very successful, let alone Wu Hongliang, who is closer to Han Sanping!

The old saying that when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, still makes sense.

Wu Hongliang is now the controlling shareholder of Tangde Film and Television, and the reason why he recommends Fan Bingbing is of course the same reason as Huayi gave "The Night Banquet" to Zhou Xun.

All of this is to recruit other big stars who are about to expire to sign contracts with our company, so we want to give them a little sweetness in advance.

Fan Bingbing's contract expires in February next year, but the renewal negotiations have broken down and he does not plan to renew.

In her previous life, she left Huayi and established a personal studio. Although she did not directly sign a contract with Tangde Film and Television, the cooperation between the two parties is still deeply bound.

Later, Aimeishen Film and Television, a shell company under the name of Fan Bingbing, was attempted to be acquired by Tangde Film and Television with a price of 740 million.

Because Tangde Film and Television was already listed at that time, it was urgently stopped by the regulatory authorities. In short, after a lot of trouble, the final result was that Fan Bingbing became the eighth largest shareholder of Tangde Film and Television.

In fact, Fan Bingbing's first TV series "Rouge Snow" after leaving Huayi was produced by Tangde Film and Television.

After this drama was aired in 2008, it generated revenue of 25 million for Tangde Film and Television that year, which shows Fan Bingbing's ability to attract money.

However, Fan Bingbing was successful in Tangde Film and Television, and Fan Bingbing was defeated. It was brilliant for a while because of Fan Bingbing, but also declined because of Fan Bingbing's sudden death.

In fact, this ending is not surprising at all, because when Tangde Film and Television was launched in 2015, one of the two people who rang the bell on behalf of Tangde Film and Television was Fan Bingbing and the other was Xiao Yanzi.

Wei Wu was too lazy to respond to the latter, but Wei Wu actually felt a little compassion for the former.

Well, I'm just greedy for other people's bodies. Since everyone is a gentleman, I will stop pretending!

Originally, he had been struggling during this period, who should give this third subsystem?

But since Han Sanping has already assigned this role to Fan Bingbing. Then this role can't be given to her for free, right?

When had Wei Wu ever done such a losing business? Then just give her the third system!

Of course, if this subsystem quota is given to Fan Bingbing, then she will definitely no longer be able to sign a contract with Tangde Film and Television. After the expiration of next year, she will have to sign with Shu Culture. Otherwise, wouldn’t Wei Wu be making wedding clothes for others in vain?

As for how Fan Bingbing will explain to Wu Hongliang then, that is her own business.
