Within the golf course.

When He Xinghan heard Zhao Jianfeng's inadvertent question, he couldn't help but tremble slightly in his heart.

The Zhao family is a behemoth even more powerful than the He family.

Although more of the opponent's energy is in the business world, the influence of the Zhao family cannot be ignored at the top. Especially in every general election, many politicians from the south receive political sponsorship from the Zhao family during their campaigns.

Thinking that the other party is now eyeing Victory Pictures, an industry with nearly a century of history in Chinese film history, He Xinghan couldn't help but feel fear in his heart.

But when he thought about his family's decision, he took a deep breath, forced out a smile, and said, "No problem, there will be specialized personnel at home to negotiate with you later."

He Xinghan is just a matchmaker, responsible for communicating and communicating, and it involves the adjustment of the general direction of the family and has nothing to do with him.

After saying this, embarrassment also appeared on his face. The family's positioning of him, if he faced ordinary people, he could still show off his power.

However, if you meet Zhao Jianfeng, a direct heir from another family, you will be a bit exposed, and the two parties are not on the same level of dialogue at all.

However, Zhao Jianfeng didn't seem to notice He Xinghan's embarrassment.

After hearing the answer from He Xinghan, he looked calm and did not show any surprise at the news.

It seems that to him, everything comes naturally. Perhaps in his eyes, investing in Victory Pictures is just a trivial matter, not worthy of a big deal.

"Oh, by the way, since You Gang, the new Golden Dragon Award-winning best director, came out of Victory Pictures, is it possible that he will be responsible for preparing a blockbuster in the near future, which will mainly reflect the theme of Chinese history and culture?

"

Zhao Jianfeng changed the topic and suddenly made a suggestion.

When He Xinghan heard the other party's words, his face changed slightly and his expression became more embarrassed. Others didn't know, but he knew that You Gang would never have anything to do with Victory Pictures.

"It may not be easy to handle." After a moment, such words came out of He Xinghan's mouth.

"What's going on?" Zhao Jianfeng seemed to feel that the situation was strange, and asked He Xinghan with his eyes, his expression was calm, but it made He Xinghan feel endless pressure.

You Gang!

When he thought of this name, He Xinghan felt that there was endless anger in his heart with nowhere to vent.

If "Bitter Water" had not been a huge success at the Golden Dragon Awards, he would never have been in such a mess.

You Gang is a time-honored director of Victory Pictures, and has shot several classic Chinese films for Victory Pictures.

At the same time, this famous director was also a great contributor to Victory Pictures during its most glorious period in the 1960s. However, now the outside media has spread rumors that You Gang almost went bankrupt while filming "Bitter Water", but Victory Pictures and this film have no relationship.

It doesn't matter at all.

This has to be said to be a huge irony.

He Xinghan knew that he couldn't hide it, so he told Zhao Jianfeng the whole story.

It turns out that when Director You Gang was planning to shoot the film "Bitter Water", he always thought that with his brand name in Victory Pictures, the company would definitely provide investment support.

But no one expected that after he submitted the shooting plan, the company's response would be silent.

It was only after You Gang inquired that he learned about his filming plan, which caused a lot of controversy among the top management and was rejected by He Xinghan.

For this reason, the hot-tempered director went directly to the company's senior management to discuss the matter.

Unexpectedly, he came to He Xinghan, and said a few words to irritate He Xinghan with his straightforward temper, saying that he didn't understand film art and only knew about eating, drinking and having fun, which made He Xinghan furious and strictly ordered the company not to invest in You Gang's crew.

Divide money.

If it were just like this, relying on You Gang's reputation, he could still attract sponsorship from the outside for the filming.

However, He Xinghan said hello to many people, blocked You Gang, and announced that the film shot by You Gang would take an artistic route. Victory Pictures was not optimistic about the box office of this film after its release.

For various reasons, You Gang’s new drama was unable to attract investment at all.

At this time, the local entertainment industry lost all its money and almost lost its vitality because of Tianxia Pictures' so-called art film "So Far", and its investment in art films was repeatedly reduced.

Unless it is a small cost of less than 10 million, the film company may still give it a try for the reputation brought by winning awards.

But You Gang's "Bitter Water", which costs about 30 million yuan, is obviously not valued by other film companies.

Especially at the risk of offending Victory Pictures.

The imprint of Victory Pictures on You Gang is really deep.

This led to the fact that You Gang wanted to film "Bitter Water" and had a complete falling out with Victory Pictures.

At the same time, "Bitter Water" also became an independently produced film.

Now it seems that if it is an economic calculation, there is no doubt that He Xinghan made a wise decision.

"Bitter Water" was a box office failure, and even half of the filming cost has not been recouped.

But now this film has won three Golden Dragon Awards, two of which are the most important awards for Best Director and Best Picture.

Then this account cannot be settled like this.

If 30 million yuan can buy the Golden Dragon Award for Best Picture and Best Director, it is estimated that all the film companies in the film industry will break their minds for this opportunity. Regardless of whether they offend Victory Pictures or not, they will also participate in You Gang

The making of this video.

It's a pity that I can only think about it now.

After "Bitter Water" won three Golden Dragon Awards, the entire top management of Victory Pictures regretted the incident.

It only costs 30 million yuan!

It seems that Victory Pictures has not obtained the Little Golden Dragon for 7 years.

This is undoubtedly very shameless for a movie giant.

And now they have let a film that won three Golden Dragon Awards slip away from their eyes. If they say they don’t regret it, even the liar would probably not believe it.

In this case, He Xinghan, who had refused and turned against You Gang at first, suddenly felt that many people in the company looked at him with a little ridicule.

After Zhao Jianfeng listened to He Xinghan's explanation of what happened, he nodded slightly, picked up the drink on the table and took a sip.

After pondering for a moment, he said softly: "It's not a big deal. You can make an appointment with You Gang later. I want to meet him!"

"What?" He Xinghan was shocked when he heard this sentence, and his face looked very ugly.

This is simply a slap in the face.

If it weren't for the fact that the person who said this was Zhao Jianfeng, He Xinghan would have wanted to turn the table over.

But he really couldn't open his mouth to bow to the director he was deliberately targeting.

Concerned about Zhao Jianfeng's status, He Xinghan thought about this sentence for a while, but finally did not say it out loud, but he still expressed his inner reluctance with silence.

Seeing He Xinghan's appearance, Zhao Jianfeng naturally guessed what the other person was thinking.

He put down his drink and touched his chin, thinking that if he pushed the other party further, it might be counterproductive.

These guys care about face more than anyone else.

As one of them, Zhao Jianfeng knew what He Xinghan was thinking better than anyone else.

So, he thought for a moment and said slowly: "Forget it, you will arrange for someone to contact the director later."

When He Xinghan heard this, he immediately smiled and patted his chest and said, "Okay, I will make arrangements later."

After saying this, he couldn't help but asked curiously: "Why do you think of contacting this guy? Although he won the Golden Dragon Award and his level is indeed good, many people say that he is no longer adapted to the current film industry.

!”

This is not what He Xinghan thinks alone, but many people have this view.

In fact, You Gang is not too old, at 46 years old, he is still in his prime.

But in recent years, there haven't been any good movies. I have made several movies, but without exception, they have not been successful at the box office.

If "Bitter Water" didn't win the Golden Dragon Award in the end, it would probably be useless.

"It's okay!" Zhao Jianfeng shook his head and did not express his true thoughts.

The family now wants to shift its investment focus to the entertainment and cultural industry. He will not disclose this plan to anyone regarding the future development of the family.

In addition, the family also wants to get closer to the top officials of the government by investing heavily in the entertainment and cultural industries.

In fact, the outside world does not know that the family has used its strong capital strength to help many political stars run for elections in the past, and has also received generous returns.

However, with the recent rise of a new generation of high-level government officials, they have severely cracked down on corruption and formulated several relevant policies and regulations to strictly restrict the power of capital from infiltrating political elections, preventing the power of capital from ultimately controlling the country's political posture.

The Zhao family's political power in the government has declined sharply in recent years, so the family has tried every means to get closer to the top officials in the hope of gaining the government's attention.

Nowadays, the top leaders of the country attach great importance to the export of Chinese culture to the outside world, so the entertainment and culture industry is a very good entry point.

Yang Ming started from scratch in just a few years and created a wealth myth that astonished countless people.

He had studied the legendary life of this young man who was much younger than himself. Although his success was due to his ability and luck, he could not ignore the strong support from the government.

It is precisely because of the protection of the government that Yang Ming achieved such dazzling success.

The reason why Yang Ming received such favorable treatment from the government was because of his high regard.

It is precisely because of this young man's ability in exporting local culture that he has attracted the attention of senior officials.

That's why Zhao Jianfeng was sent to Yanjing by his family to take charge of the family's plans in the entertainment and cultural industry.

Taking a stake in Victory Pictures is just the first step, so it would be best to acquire Maoyan Films next, and also acquire a theater chain company at the same time.
