You don't understand the happiness of the director

Wang Quan was very calm, "Just terminate the contract. I have always said that if our directors have a better future, Wang Dao's contract will never be an obstacle to them."

Therefore, there is no liquidated damages in the termination clause, and Wang Dao is also willing to invest in support if he starts his own company.

Although Chen Sicheng is a talented person, it is also a good choice to go out and start a career on his own. Without Chen Sicheng, other new directors in the company will also get more opportunities to experience.

Chen Chuling, "But I heard that the project he and Wanda are about to collaborate on is "Detective Chinatown"!"

"Oh?" Wang Quan narrowed his eyes, "This is very interesting."

"Yes, isn't this a project that our company has already registered? Although the main plot was written by him, other screenwriters from the company also participated. It is the crystallization of collective wisdom. How could it be taken away without saying a word? It is so unethical. !”

Wang Quan: "It doesn't matter, let them film it, and we will release it after the filming is completed."

"That's fine, but I have to say that this guy has talent but no virtue, and it would be better if he left the royal way." Chen Chuling couldn't help but complain about this family member.

However, Chen Sicheng was not as bold as Wang Quan imagined. After the company Yitong Pictures, a joint venture with Wanda, officially opened and the dust settled, he sent a long WeChat message to Wang Quan to explain his motivation for leaving.

"I will never forget the kindness you showed me, Director Quan. The most glorious moment in my life was the success of "Manslaughter".

"But when the young eagle grows up, it must leave the protection of the eagle's wings, otherwise when will it grow up?

“Furthermore, the company’s resources are limited. Seeing that young talented directors who have graduated a few years ago are still unable to take up positions, while cross-border talents like me have more resources, I feel deeply guilty.

"Be brave enough to step out of your comfort zone and explore a wider world. I believe this is what you, Director Quan, would like to see. I also hope to meet you at the top one day, Director..."

After sending this WeChat message, Chen Sicheng couldn't do anything else and kept holding his phone to see how Wang Quan would reply to him.

Waiting and waiting, after waiting for an hour, Wang Quan replied with one word, "Oh~"

He was not afraid that Wang Quan would say anything, but he was afraid that Wang Quan would say nothing. With this "oh", Chen Sicheng wouldn't worry anymore.

Next, he began to contact Wang Baoqiang. In his script, Baoqiang was definitely the male lead, and he wrote the male lead Tang Ren according to him.

This is a story about two male protagonists, and the other male protagonist is Liu Haoran, an actor who has signed a contract with the same company.

As for the choice of the heroine Axiang, Chen Sicheng made a call, "Hey, Axiang..."

~

Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.

Wang Quan didn't reply to Chen Sicheng's WeChat message in time just now, mainly because he was busy working on Scarlett Johansson.

Today Long Toutou held a celebration party for the global box office of "Super Body" exceeding 400 million US dollars. In addition, the film will be released in China after the National Day schedule.

In this way, Xu Ke will have two consecutive works on the big screen.

After the celebration party, Wang Quan and his widowed sister had some fun, and then he hurried home, where his girlfriend Mimi was still waiting for him.

Wang Quan and Yang Mi lived directly in the villa he gave to Liu Yifei and Sister Xiaoli, and they were too lazy to buy a new house. They already had enough houses, and buying another house would be a waste of resources.

As for villas like those in Beverly Hills, no matter which one he walks into, the hostess will not let him go to bed. They are all members of the family.

But Yang Mi just sleeps here, usually at Gadot or Little K's place. Both of them are popular Hollywood stars. Taking a few girlfriend photos together will also help her increase her followers on Twitter.

Although she already has "Pacific Rim", which has a box office of over 100 million in North America, and is Wang Quan's official girlfriend, her number of fans on Twitter is far less than that of Liu Yifei.

She suspected that it was mainly because Liu Yifei was from the United States. In fact, it was not difficult for her to transfer her citizenship now. Her boyfriend was King David.

But she didn't think it was necessary. She was already so rich, so it didn't matter which country she was from. Moreover, she had a red heart facing the sun, was born under a red flag, and grew up in the spring breeze, so she couldn't do that kind of thing.

While playing Lego toys with Alice, Gadot came back from outside with a smile on her face.

"What are you so happy about?" Yang Mi lowered her collar, showing off her advantages.

She spent the night here yesterday, with Wang Quan and Gadot.

There is nothing to say about Gadot's legs. She is over 1.7 meters tall and has muscles on her body, so her fighting ability is quite strong. She has no power to parry in front of her, and this is her only advantage.

Gadot told Yang Mi, "I just signed with Warner to play Wonder Woman in their next movie."

"Wonder Woman?" Yang Mi didn't recognize her at all.

Wang Quan introduced: "You can think of her as the female version of Superman. She is powerful, beautiful and sassy. She is the most popular female superhero in the DC comics world."

Then he asked, "Did you only sign a solo film contract for Batman Vs. and Wonder Woman?"

"No, I guess it depends on how well Wonder Woman's first appearance is received before deciding whether to film it or not."

At this time, Yang Mi had already searched the comic book image of Wonder Woman from the Internet, and then glanced at Gadot, feeling that she might not be suitable for it.

Yang Mi is envious of Gadot's access to such good resources. Wang Quan said that if "Wonder Woman" were released as a stand-alone movie, the global box office would be at least hundreds of millions of dollars, and she would have an absolute core heroine.

But soon, a Hollywood company extended an olive branch to her.

Yang Mi also joined a brokerage company in Hollywood, so she let King Quan's manager Lafite serve as a concurrent agent.

The invitation that Lafite received was a war film about an American pilot and a Chinese widow in China during World War II. The tentative title was "Rescuing the Flying Tigers."

The director is Billy August, the famous Danish director who has won the Palme d'Or twice at Cannes.

And this is also a heroine movie, unfolding from the perspective of the heroine Eiko.

"Husband, I'm going to be rich too!" Yang Mi told him the good news excitedly.

Wang Quan looked weird. Is it such a coincidence? This script also has a name called "Feng Huo Fang Fei", and the name was probably changed to match the heroine Liu Yifei.

"This Rafi, after becoming a leader, he no longer pays attention to these details. This is not a Hollywood movie. It is obviously domestically invested. Then he went to Europe to find a director, and then came to Hollywood to find an actor. As for the heroine , I guess I just happened to meet you in Los Angeles, so I just thought that I would be in trouble if I had dates or not."

Hearing Wang Quan's words, Yang Mi was disappointed, but still a little unwilling, "But this director can't cheat."

"It's true. The director has indeed won the Palme d'Or twice, but this is not a European literary film. Do you think any director can still be at home without his own local culture and context? I am a famous European director like Auguste. I’ve seen too much that most people who break into Hollywood end up returning home in despair, and not many can settle down and make a living.”

Yang Mi held on to her last glimmer of hope, "How about you read the script~"

After reading the script, Wang Quan still shook his head, and then Yang Mi firmly rejected it. Brother Quan had never looked past the script before, and he said no, it definitely wouldn't work.

The film crew did not give up after failing to trick Yang Mi. European famous directors spent a lot of money, but they still had to recover the cost. Besides Yang Mi, the one with the most box office appeal in China is Liu Yifei.

So the script came to Liu Yifei again.

And Liu Yifei is more straightforward. Seeing the heroine's character, is she a village girl?

Not acting!

Now, "We Will Never Die" hasn't started filming yet, and it just so happens that her hometown, Jiangcheng, will host this year's Golden Rooster Awards. Liu Yifei has nothing to do, so she agreed to attend and serve as ambassador.

But as an ambassador, she was restricted by the new rules of the Golden Rooster Awards and was not eligible to be nominated. Otherwise, "Mountain Runner Family" would not have been worthy of a nomination.

Seeing Yang Mi's name on the nomination list, Liu Yifei was extremely envious. Mi Mi was nominated for Best Actress for "To Youth".

Although it feels like it was a movie many years ago, there is nothing I can do about it. The Golden Rooster Awards are just like this, held every two years.

Mimi had already won last year's Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress for "Love Is Not Blind".

Now Liu Yifei has the Best Actress of Venice and the Best Actress of the Golden Statue, and Mimi, who has never been lucky enough to win awards, is also starting to catch up.

When the Golden Rooster Awards Organizing Committee announced the nomination list and the news that Liu Yifei would serve as the image ambassador, the entire media circle was shocked.

Everyone is curious about the first real-life encounter between Wang Quan’s ex-girlfriend and his current girlfriend, who still have a close sisterly relationship even though they wear scarves.

Of course, whether we can meet up depends on Yang Mi. Liu Yifei will definitely participate, but as for Yang Mi, she and her boyfriend are now enjoying themselves in Los Angeles. They have met various Hollywood celebrities. It is still unclear whether she will return to China to participate in the Golden Rooster Awards. .

Liu Yifei even called Yang Mi specifically and asked her if she would be back then.

"Oh, depending on the situation, I don't have much hope of winning~"

Yang Mi felt that she was just making up the numbers. Not to mention Zhang Jingchu and Liang Jing, the shortlisted films were too niche, but the other two were Yan Bingyan's "A Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart" and Zhang Ziyi's "The Grandmaster."

Both of them are praised as their best performances since they started filming. Yan Bingyan has won the Best Actress of the Year and the Actress of the Year Award from the Directors Association of the East Film Festival for this film festival.

As for Zhang Ziyi of "The Grandmaster", I heard that the film rights were sold to Weinstein Pictures, and Harvey also promised to help Zhang Ziyi's public relations for the Oscar-winning actress.

So Yang Mi had a clear conscience, why should a heroine in a youth film win?

Since "Beautiful Love" was excluded by Wang Quan, Yang Mi is too lazy to accept those wild scripts in Hollywood. Whenever her brother has something suitable for her, he will naturally think of her, so why bother with it.

In the next few days, she continued to follow Wang Quan to various parties in Hollywood, and met many big stars and directors who could only be known in film school textbooks before.

Something about Al Pacino, something about Robert De Niro, something about George Lucas, something about Harrison Ford.

Harrison Ford is 71 years old and will return in "Star Wars 7" this time.

The superstar's experience is legendary.

He debuted in the 1960s and worked as a follow-up actor on the set, which is equivalent to a more advanced group actor. Because his income was small, he began to learn carpentry to support his family.

In 1973, he went to George Lucas's house to do carpentry work. Lucas thought he was quite handsome, so he gave him a small role. Later, he filmed "Star Wars" and he played Han Solo. .

Harrison Ford is not only one of the leading actors in the old trilogy of "Star Wars", but also the soul actor of the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" series. At its peak, Harrison Ford's starring films accounted for 10% of the top 30 box office hits worldwide. As many as seven.

The "Raiders of the Lost Ark" series is also a valuable property of Lucasfilm. The fourth part was completed a few years ago, but the fifth part a few years later failed miserably.

The old Harrison was too old, and it was difficult to come up with new ideas for this story. King Quan also tried to combine the Raiders of the Lost Ark and the Ghost Blowing Lamp series.

But it’s just an attempt at the script outline level, and it might be a blow to two big IPs.

September 12th was Yang Mi's birthday. She never mentioned it because she wanted to see how her brother celebrated her birthday.

This is their first birthday after making it public, and it may also be their last. By then, I will have to take photos of the gifts and post them on Weibo, so there won’t be many opportunities to show off like this.

"Husband, what are our plans today?" Mimi whispered in Wang Quan's ear when he woke up early in the morning.

"Come to New York with me for some work matters."

New York? Whether it's watching a show or shopping, Yang Mi is already full of expectations. Compared with Los Angeles, which is full of low-rise buildings, New York has the feeling of an international metropolis.

However, after the plane landed, the car took them to Wall Street in Manhattan.

"Honey, what are we doing here?"

Wang Quan did not answer her questions, but took her into an office building and came to a company.

The company brand says "Two Months Two Fund Company" in English.

"Let me show you my other property..."

"Wendy, how are you doing with your increase in NVIDIA shares?" Wang Quan said hello to Aunt Wendy.

"Now we can attend the board of directors." Wendy said, but he didn't quite understand why Wang Quan was so optimistic about this small company. Is it just because the boss is Chinese?

After that, Wang Quan took Yang Mi into his boss's office, which he had not used much. Although it was rarely used, Wendy felt that it was still necessary. Every time Wang Quan came over to guide the work, Er Yue Er would benefit a lot.

"As you can see, this company belongs to me." Wang Quan told Yang Mi on the boss's chair, but did not get her shocked expression.

Because this company seemed very small, with just a few offices, it was incomparable to Long Toutian’s single-family building in Los Angeles.

Then Wang Quan told her, "This company can earn me at least 10 billion in pure profits every year."

Yang Mi's expression began to exaggerate, and then Wang Quan added, "US dollars."

Yang Mi said "fuck" directly.

Yang Mi quickly searched the global rich list at this time.

This year's rich list has shifted from Bill Gates and Buffett to Mexican telecommunications tycoon Carlos Slim. With a net worth of US$73 billion, Bill Gates can only rank second.

The richest Chinese man is 85-year-old Li Jiacheng, with a net worth of US$31 billion.

After the initial shock, Yang Mi asked with some trembling, "Husband, who is richer between you and Li Jiacheng now?"

Wang Quan thought for a while, "Maybe I have more money."

“What about Bill Gates?”

"Then he should be richer."

"real."

"I lied to you like a puppy." This is a very serious oath.

"ah!"

Yang Mi yelled and quickly covered her mouth, her face flushed with excitement.

Then she sat on Wang Quan's lap and said, "Well, then why are you making a movie? How can you make money in the stock market like that!"

Wang Quan asked: "Then you are now worth several hundred million and have achieved financial freedom long ago. Why do you still want to be an actor?"

"I like the feeling of being in the spotlight."

"I also like my works to be liked, discussed, and remembered by people." Wang Quan said calmly.

Afterwards, Wang Quan came up with a contract and said, "Sissi also knows about this. I gave her 1% of the shares of 2 Month 2 as a gift."

Yang Mi's throat rumbled, "One percent, doesn't that mean 100 million US dollars a year!"

This is much more profitable than my own power life. !

Wang Quan: "Being a boyfriend must be fair. She has it and you have it. This is for you."

Yang Mi glanced at it and thought it was 1% of the shares of Eryue Er, but then she said, "Ah, the equity transfer of Power World?"
