Chapter 191 Killing the Wolf

Chapter 191 Killing the Wolf (Part )

Li Chen hasn't gone in yet.

Ning Hao and his wife came out upon hearing the voice.

Seeing Li Chen getting out of the car, Ning Hao couldn't help but make fun of himself to his wife.

"Look, they are both directors, why is there such a big difference?"

"They drive luxury cars with professional drivers, but I drive a taxi when I go out."

Xing Aina didn't give her man any face at all.

"Come on, I asked you to buy a car but you don't want to buy it."

"Besides, Director Li holds the highest box office record in China."

"How did you get to be a member of the 100 million box office club? You have no idea!"

When Li Chen heard Xing Ai's teasing, he also stepped forward and said with a smile: "Sister Xing, how did you fall in love with Ning Hao in the first place?"

"You won't see him living with you, will you?"

Xing Aina kicked Ning Hao and said, "Learn from Director Li and see how he does things and how he speaks."

"Okay, I give in. It's rare that Director Li is so kind and you even told me that being stingy means knowing how to live."

As the couple talked, they welcomed Li Chen into Bad Monkey.

Li Chen sat on the sofa and Xing Aina poured him a cup of tea.

Li Chen crossed his legs and relaxed: "You're welcome, take out the notebook."

Ning Hao chuckled: "You are really impatient."

Xing Aina handed the notebook to Li Chen: "Director Li has a lot of things to do, you should just treat him like you, busy all day long."

Li Chen put down the teacup, picked it up and took a look. It was indeed the book "Crazy Racing". He flipped through it for more than ten minutes.

Putting down the script, Li Chen nodded: "Multiple plots intertwine, starting with racing and ending with racing, it's a good script."

"With your current momentum, you shouldn't be short of investment, right?"

Ning Hao received a salary of one million for filming "Ip Man".

This is already very high for Ning Hao.

After all, at that time he was just a small director who had won some small awards but had no box office guarantee.

But now it’s different. The box office of "Ip Man" in mainland China has exceeded 100 million US dollars, and the global box office has exceeded 40 million US dollars.

Ning Hao's reputation became famous, and the director's salary also increased rapidly.

"It's true that we don't lack investment, but we should always remember the people who dug the well. Xiaona and I both think we should bring you along."

"The cost is not high. Ten million yuan. I mean you and Mr. Han will each take 40%, and I will take 20%."

Li Chen nodded, but didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"How about this, we'll report 12 million to the public, and you and I, Director Han, will each take one-third."

"After all, you are a member of the billion-dollar club, so your director's fee should be increased."

Ning Hao laughed: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Xing Aina pushed Ning Hao and said, "You didn't even say thank you. It's like Director Li took advantage of you."

Li Chen smiled and said, "You're welcome, Sister Xing."

"By the way, there will be a sequel to "Ip Man", right?" Ning Hao asked curiously.

Li Chen nodded in agreement.

"If you need me in the sequel, just say hello. It makes me want to smile just thinking about it."

"Wang Jiawei's The Grandmaster has been in preparation since the return of Hong Kong Island."

"It's been almost ten years, and filming has not started yet, but the sequel to Ip Man is already on the agenda."

Li Chen did not comment, but changed the subject: "So, this year, except for Director Yimou and Sister Lu."

“It seems like all the billion-dollar directors are busy.”

Ning Hao and Xing Aina also nodded: "That's true. Director Chen's "Mei Lanfang" is said to start filming in May."

"Director Feng's "Assembly" has also completed its first cut."

Ning Hao remembered something and asked in confusion, "What happened to Lu Chuan's play?"

"Some time ago, there was a rumor online that the script was rejected."

"But Lu Chuan flatly denied it, saying that the rumormonger had ulterior motives."

Although Li Chen knew that Lu Chuan had lied, he did not say it out loud.

"It may not be groundless. This kind of subject matter is a double-edged sword."

"If he fails, his reputation will be ruined. He is not the only one who wants to shoot that kind of film."

After Ning Hao said this, Li Chen took it to heart.

I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to read the news online.

After returning from Bad Monkey, Li Chen returned to the villa.

These past two days, the internet has been filled with news about China Film Ying Huang’s agency.

Lao Yang's words "Join China Film Ying Huang, I guarantee that you will have fans in every corner of the world" are really eye-catching.

In addition, Chenglong, Xiaoyanzi and other old people from Yinghuang are also here for the occasion.

This newly established agency immediately had the qualifications to challenge Huayi and Chengtian. The media joked that the era of the three-legged race was coming.

I don’t know what the scene will be like when Yang Siwei establishes Yi Xin Media in the second half of the year.

I heard from Yang Siwei that Fan Qiaoqiao had set his sights on pursuing a good man.

I also talked to her to see if Rongchen Pictures was interested.

If there was, she would have given up.

Although Li Chen didn't care about the good man, Huayi and Chengtian would not stand idly by.

Fan Qiaoqiao's difficult beginnings have just begun.

There are indeed quite a few reports about Lu Tailang's play on the Internet.

Huang Xiaoming and Qin Lan separated last year.

It seems that it was because of this drama that I got together with Lu Tailang.

The capital chain was broken, but Qin Lan was really generous. Every time she had a relationship, she would basically give money and people away.

The next day when he arrived at the company, Li Chen called Yang Siwei over.

Knowing that this play is disgusting, you can't just do nothing.

Yang Siwei took the USB drive and asked, "What is this, boss?"

"This was sent to me by a netizen. He probably wanted to use me to talk about Huang Luchuan's play."

"Go and have a look first, and then we'll talk about it after you've finished."

Yang Siwei nodded and returned to his office.

In less than twenty minutes, he came back in a hurry.

There was still some confusion on his face.

"Boss, this doesn't look fake. It looks more like someone close to Lu Chuan."

"Otherwise, it would be impossible to write such a script."

Li Chen nodded: "I think so too."

"Since you and I both believe this is true, do you think I should help this netizen?"

"How can I make the decision for my boss? But if it were me, I would have no choice but to do it. Otherwise, my nine years of compulsory education would have been in vain."

"A beast will always be a beast!"

"Well said! I'll help you out, not for that netizen, but to live up to my conscience."

Yang Siwei smiled and said, "Boss, what do you want to do?"

"You can find a way to make the contents of the USB drive a hot topic, and then naturally there will be enthusiastic netizens who will find me and speak out."

Before Li Chen finished speaking, Yang Siwei understood instantly.

"Then boss, you can use your influence to speak out publicly."

"This way, no one will dare to risk the world's disapproval and give the green light to this play!"

Li Chen snapped his fingers: "Smart, it's worth my training over the years."

"Remember, you must do it without leaving any trace. No one should know that this is the news we spread."

Yang Siwei was a little excited: "Don't worry, boss. In the past few years, I have only been passively dealing with other people's dirty tricks."

"It's time for me to take the initiative to shoot a hidden arrow!"

Li Chen smiled and said, "Go ahead, do it boldly. The things in this USB drive are all true."

Yang Siwei left with full confidence.

Li Chen sat in the leather boss chair in the office and muttered to himself.

“Does this count as self-production and self-sale?”

Sina Entertainment News

"The platinum female lead of "The Forbidden Kingdom" was finally chosen by Li Qiaoqiao and Liu Yifei."

"It is reported that the two have entered the martial arts school for closed training, and the film will start shooting in Shanghai in early May."

Southern Weekend report
Reprinted from Tianya Forum

"The script of 'Nan Jing, Nan Jing' was suspected to have been leaked, and a netizen named Lu Tailang claimed to be an insider of the crew."

"I revealed the content of the script of "Nan Jing" on Tianya Forum, and confirmed that the online rumor that "Nan Jing" was cancelled due to script issues is true."

"Once the post was published, it was reposted by many people and sparked widespread discussion among netizens."

"Our reporter contacted director Lu Chuan and producer Xing Mei but was unable to get in touch."

Qin Hong looked at Lu Chuan's pale face and the broken vase on the ground, and didn't know what to say.

"Who on earth is destroying me? This is going to kill me!"

Lu Chuan was still roaring.

Qin Hong sighed: "Why don't we just disperse after the money is spent? I checked the person who broke the news, and it's a newly registered account."

"Nine times out of ten, it's someone around us."

Qin Hong didn't say anything else, but Lu Chuan understood his meaning.

How can we film this drama when no one around me understands?

At this time, public opinion on the Internet has exploded.
