Chapter 1779 1781 [Sincerity]
Zou Wenhuai immediately sent He Guanchang, hoping to keep Xiang Nan.
Xiang Nan was a little confused when he saw He Guanchang and heard Zou Wenhuai's meaning conveyed by him.
He really didn't expect that after he slapped Zou Wenhuai, he would still be willing to cooperate with him.
This kind of operation made him a little confused, "I heard that right, is he still willing to cooperate with me?"
"Of course I heard right." He Guanchang said hastily, "Although there are conflicts between us, business is business."
Xiang Nan blinked, still a little puzzled.
If it were him, he would never accept it. He has a character that would rather be broken than broken. If anyone dares to bully him, he promises to fight back.
"It doesn't matter if you can't figure it out, think about it slowly, but we still have to do business." He Guanchang persuaded, "You just stay."
"After what happened last time, do I still dare to trust you?" Xiang Nan frowned and said, "If I promise to stay, what will you do if you go back on your word?"
Last time, Golden Harvest deducted 36 million Hong Kong dollars that should have been allocated to Real Kung Fu Films, which shows how greedy it is. What's more, there are still conflicts between them, which makes Xiang Nan naturally worried.
"You are so skilled, our lives are in your hands, do we dare to regret it?" He Guanchang said quickly, "Don't worry, we will never do that kind of thing again in the future."
"Even so, I still don't understand, why should I stay and not cooperate with Lei Juekun? After all, he has never cheated on me, and his business reputation is much better." Xiang Nan pouted.
Compared to Zou Wenhuai, Lei Juekun is a good boss. Regardless of Mai Jia, Shi Tian or Huang Baiming, after leaving New Art City, no one has said anything bad about Lei Juekun.
As for Sammo Hung, Xu Guanwen, Wang Jing, etc. who worked with Golden Harvest, after leaving Golden Harvest, none of them did not complain a lot. In her memoirs, Wang Jing wrote about being mistreated by Jiahe.
He made such blockbuster films as Golden Harvest, such as the series "Bewitched Boys", "Chinese Heroes", "The Wind and Cloud", "The Secret Life of Empress Dowager Cixi", "Yang Naiwu and Xiaobaicai".
As a result, when he left Golden Harvest, he settled the accounts and found that not only did he not have any bonuses, but he owed Golden Harvest more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars.
This is like Warner's "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix", which has a global box office of 950 million U.S. dollars, but its production cost is less than 200 million U.S. dollars, which can be said to be a huge profit.
But after Warner settled the accounts, the film lost 160 million US dollars, so the profit dividends that should have been given to the actors were all lost.
The so-called infidelity in one matter is not used in PepsiCo. Xiang Nan was tricked once, so naturally he didn't want to be tricked again.
He Guanchang was taken aback by Xiang Nan's question.
Indeed, once trust is broken, it is very difficult to restore it.
Like broken porcelain, even if it is re-glued, there are still cracks.
"Ning Wei, I know, you have concerns now, you won't believe what I say." He Guanchang thought for a while and said, "Well, don't rush to cooperate with Lei Juekun, I will prove it to you .”
"Okay, at most a week, let me see your sincerity." Xiang Nan hesitated for a moment and said, he wanted to see what kind of sincerity Golden Harvest could show to keep him.
…
The rest of the time, I either accompany Miao Kexiu, or visit the crew of "A Thousand Kings Fighting Thousand Tyrants", or discuss the next movie with Lin Zhengying and others, and my life is quite fulfilling.
"Thousand Kings Fighting Thousand Tyrants" has now started filming. The director is Wang Jing, Xiang Nan is the producer, the leading actors are Xie Xian and Chow Yun-fat, and the supporting roles include Chen Guantai, Huang Jinshen, Tian Niu and so on.
In fact, Wang Jing was originally unwilling to use Chow Yun-fat. Because although he is known as the king of ratings in the TV drama industry, the ratings of the dramas he starred in, such as "People in the Net", "Shanghai Beach", "Family Change", "Rainbow", "The Announcer", etc., are all very good.
But the box office of the movies he participated in was so bad that it was once called box office poison. That's why Wang Jing was unwilling to use him, for fear that his debut work would be ruined by him.
However, Xiang Nan knew that the real reason why Chow Yun-fat's movie box office was poor was not his. The main reason is that most of the movies he participated in were produced by Xieli Pictures.
Xie Li Pictures is a rare company in the Hong Kong film industry that specializes in C-level films. The so-called C-grade movies refer to movies with worse investment and rougher production than B-grade movies.
Movies of this kind are often not shown in Hong Kong’s theaters, but are directly distributed to Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia and other places. The economic situation over there is poor, the cultural and entertainment industry is underdeveloped, and the audience's aesthetics are even worse. So even if it is a C-level movie, it will often have a good box office.
It’s like the DV movies that were popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan at the beginning of the new century.
Usually do not go to theaters, and release DVDs directly. Because the production cost is extremely low, only about 100,000 yuan, so you can make money just by distributing DVDs.
Chow Yun-fat always acts in this kind of movie, no matter how good-looking he is, no matter how good his acting skills are, no matter how popular he is, it won't help. So it wasn't really his fault.
As a fan of Chow Yun-fat, Xiang Nan is willing to give him a chance.
…
As for Tanniu, the reason why she appeared in this film is also because of Xiang Nan's care.
She made many appointments with Xiang Nan. Although Xiang Nan didn't keep the appointment, he kept this love in his heart.
A man will not hate a woman who likes him even if he doesn't love it. If you can take care of something, you will take care of it more.
This may sound like a small kindness, but it made Tanniu very excited, thinking that Xiang Nan finally fell in love with her, so she called more often.
But because of Miao Kexiu, Xiang Nan still didn't plan to give Tan Niu a chance.
After all, Xiangjiang is really too small, a little turbulent, and in a blink of an eye, the whole Xiangjiang can know it.
It is a bit difficult to play with two boats here.
Besides, the relationship between Xiang Nan and Miao Kexiu is now on fire, and there is no intention of breaking up yet. So he could only say sorry to Tianniu.
…
Lin Zhengying, Ren Shiguan and others have finished filming "People Scared Ghosts" before, and now they are filming "The Brave Man Without Fear" with him.
Xiang Nan is planning to make another movie for them, and currently considering the screenplay "Tiger Shaking Tooth" written by Wang Jing.
Although this is a kung fu movie, it is not the old routine of enmity, martial arts, and revenge. It tells a story of treasure hunting, which is quite innovative.
Xiang Nan is going to ask Jackie Chan to star in this movie. He was called by Luo Wei to go back to film "Ghost Horse Tianshi Recruits Ghosts" last year. As a result, the film was a mess, and Jackie Chan, who had just become popular, fell down again.
Xiang Nan wanted to give him another chance.
