Chapter 247 A True Master of Time Management! (The Third Update!)
【Starlight Future】.
Xu Shengnan knocked on Zheng Chengwu's office in a hurry.
Zheng Chengwu was watching the live broadcast of the [Berlin International Film Festival]. His expression changed from carelessness at first to gradually seriousness, and then he fell into deep thought.
On the desk, detailed information of [NC Studio] was placed.
A few days ago.
[Starlight Future] terminated the contract with Zhang Sheng's [NC Studio].
The day of termination.
Zheng Chengwu felt a little regretful.
Regret Zhang Sheng's impulsiveness, regret Zhang Sheng's impulsiveness, and not listening to others' advice.
Young people don't understand what kind of world this is. They just wishfully think that they can succeed if they pay.
How did [NC Studio] succeed?
By chance?
Luck?
A discerning eye found a singer like Ah K? Then, became famous overnight?
Zheng Chengwu thought it was ridiculous.
The so-called overnight fame and the so-called hard work will eventually pay off are actually just a "gimmick" in the eyes of insiders.
They [Starlight Future] did a lot of work behind the scenes, bought so many resources and headlines, and attracted so much traffic, to make Ah K "famous overnight"?
But...
Young people are always wishful thinking, preferring to believe in the fairy tales brought by those "gimmicks", and naively think they can do anything.
Zhang Sheng doesn't know how to be grateful!
He doesn't understand that [Starlight Future]'s plan to acquire [NC Studio] is not to look down on this small studio. On the contrary, the top management is very interested in this studio and thinks that this studio has potential, and even has the idea of supporting this studio to become bigger. Four million is actually an investment in Zhang Sheng...
[Starlight Future] has absolute control over [Studio], so they can provide more resources and more traffic to make the artists under the studio take off, right?
They are even planning to stage another "traffic miracle" and "superstar foil" drama during Ah K's concert.
But he didn't understand the good intentions of the top management, and just shook his head and refused.
He didn't understand that in this complex circle, his [NC Studio] was too small. If there was no intervention from external capital and management, it would not be possible for it to survive in the cruel market competition...
"Bi Feiyu won the award."
"I know, I was watching the whole process."
"Should we update our evaluation of [NC Studio]? The popularity of Berlin is not small..."
In the office.
Zheng Chengwu listened to Xu Shengnan's voice.
He didn't speak.
He just watched the awards ceremony of the [Berlin International Film Festival].
The awards ceremony continued, but because it was a film in the main competition unit, the competition was extremely cruel, and all the shortlisted Chinese films were eliminated.
Golden Bear Award!
Although this award has not been announced yet, the probability of winning the Golden Bear Award is too low.
Therefore, it is very likely that only "The Dog Over the Mountain" will win the award in this Berlin. Even the Best Debut Award in other awards has a certain gold content.
Zheng Chengwu frowned deeply.
He vaguely felt that he seemed to have made a mistake.
When he asked Xu Shengnan to talk to Zhang Sheng about the contract, it was too early.
He fell into deep thought.
Is the 80% of shares the company wants too much?
Perhaps, they also made a wrong assessment of the overall value of [NC Studio].
No one could have thought that "The Dog Over the Mountain" could be nominated and win an award...
"Mr. Zheng, should I talk to Zhang Sheng again?" Xu Shengnan looked at Zheng Chengwu: "I got the news that Li Yanhong of [Shengshi Entertainment] met with Zhang Sheng some time ago..."
"He signed a contract with us, and it is impossible for him to be affiliated with [Shengshi Entertainment]..."
"He did not affiliate with it, but established an entertainment company himself. The studio cannot be affiliated with it, but his company can cooperate with [Shengshi Entertainment] in business. We did not sign this when we signed the contract."
Zheng Chengwu did not respond, but just flipped through the information of [NC Studio], flipping through it again and again.
"We made a wrong assessment and shouldn't have invested in his studio. In other words, when we invested, we took a small share and he took a large share!"
"You know that our President Dong will never allow something that he can't control to happen."
"But I think we can talk about cooperation again..."
"Then Shengnan, how do you think we can cooperate with Zhang Sheng?"
"We continue to help Ah K to attend concerts. After all, we can also make some money from Ah K... At the same time, we invest in their company's movie "7 Days to Die"!" Xu Shengnan stared at Zheng Chengwu.
"This is a disguised compromise. Although "The Dog Over the Mountain" won an award, it may provide some heat for a short time, but it only provides some heat for a short time. We don't need to be nervous when the wind blows..." Zheng Chengwu sighed: "Besides, President Dong's decisive temperament will never agree. He will only suppress and then make people surrender..."
"I want to meet President Dong..." Xu Shengnan was silent for a moment, then stared at Zheng Chengwu.
"What to talk about?"
"How do you know whether the unknown people today will be famous in the world in the future?"
In the office.
Xu Shengnan's eyes were a little sharp.
Zheng Chengwu was shocked when he heard this, but he calmed down and nodded: "Mr. Dong will be in the company tomorrow night..."
"Okay!"
…………………………
Berlin.
The award ceremony came to an end.
Among Chinese films, except for "The Dog Over the Mountain" which won a minor award, other films once again became runners-up.
The outside of the venue was no longer as lively as when she walked on the red carpet. The media noticed that she was about to take pictures and went back satisfied.
The remaining media looked at the "runners" who were coming out one after another and had no interest in interviewing...
"We have our own video company in China..."
"We have our own theater chain in France..."
"Miss Fendi, I believe you also know that we also have our own theater chain in Brazil. We are also the organizer of the [Southern California International Film Awards], and Avery Tashi, a judge of the [Berlin International Film Festival] Our organizer judges…”
Fendi, the director of "Horror Night" looked at this talkative Chinese man.
She felt like there were stars in her eyes.
She actually knew this Chinese man half a month ago.
At that time, it was the short film screening of "Horror Night"...
It was said to be a screening, but in fact the screening time was only more than ten minutes, and there were no audiences present.
This Chinese man named Zhang Sheng took the initiative to talk to her and praised the short film "Thriller Night" from beginning to end.
Fendi was wary at first!
Even though she is a recent college graduate and has never seen much of the world, she still knows that there is no free lunch in this world.
But this Chinese seems to be very paranoid.
I would go to the screening of "Fright Night" every day and watch it carefully over and over again.
This makes Fendi feel weird!
Even though "Horror Night" is very good to watch, no one can stand watching it for more than ten days at once, right?
But unfortunately...
That's what he did.
Not only did he watch it, but he watched it carefully every time and clapped excitedly.
Fundy finally couldn't help her curiosity and took the initiative to chat with him again.
During the chat, Fendi learned that he was a producer and wanted to make a horror movie similar to "Horror Night"...
Fendi was still very wary, even if the way this Chinese man chatted with her made people feel comfortable, and his eyes showed sincerity...
Of course, this Chinese man didn't do anything extraordinary. He just said that he wanted to make a movie, and he didn't invite her...
We met again at the award ceremony.
Her "Frightful Night" was unsuccessful.
Just when he was depressed, this man came to him.
He said that he had a theater partner in France and wanted to buy its "Horror Night" short film...
In the cafe.
Fendi looked at the contracts Zhang Sheng handed her.
They are all very simple contracts in English.
There is an exclusive authorization from French cinemas, a purchase agreement from China Video, and an invitation to this year’s [Southern California International Film Awards].
"Mr. Zhang Sheng, invite me to be a judge?"
"Yes! We planned to create an award for short films, but I searched for a long time and couldn't find the right person until I met you..."
"But, I'm too young!"
"There is a saying in China that you should never be young if you have ambitions..."
"Eh?"
"Miss Fendi, please think about it first. I have something to do. I'll go over there first and be back soon."
Fendi looked at the contract in a daze.
She nodded as she watched Zhang Sheng leave.
After reading the contract, she walked out of the box and prepared to go to the toilet.
Then……
She saw Zhang Sheng walking out of another box with a smile on his face, and then walked into the third box.
Out of curiosity, she walked towards one of the boxes.
I saw a documentary director sitting in one of the boxes, seemingly staring at the contract in a daze.
Although it is not confirmed what Zhang Sheng was talking about, what is certain is that Zhang Sheng should have said similar words to them.
Her expression is wonderful!
This guy!
How much business did you receive at this time?
She suddenly thought that when she went out, Zhang Sheng was followed by a group of people.
this moment……
Her scalp was numb.
In her life, she had never seen anyone as crazy as Zhang Sheng.
How could he have so much energy?
At this moment, the door of another coffee shop box opened, and she saw Zhang Sheng coming out.
Fundy took a deep breath.
"Mr. Zhang Sheng, what on earth are you doing?"
"Ah, Miss Fendi, I won't hide it from you. Here we are talking about the exclusive copyright licensing agreement, and over there we are talking about the filming agreement for the new movie. Our "7 Days to Die" needs to form a team..."
Just when Zhang Sheng finished speaking and before Fendi could react, Zhang Sheng saw the door of the coffee shop opened again.
Then……
Fendi looked at Zhang Sheng again with a smile on his face and walked towards him.
"Mr. Avery Tashi, Director Bi, come here. I have almost finalized the agreement. You guys come over and discuss some details to see if we can cooperate..."
"..."
Fendi watched Avery Tashi and Bi Feiyu walk into one of the boxes.
Then, Zhang Sheng walked into another box.
A few minutes later, Zhang Sheng came out with a smile on his face and held a contract: "Miss Fendi, what have you thought about it? I am a capable person. If you cooperate with me, you will never regret it..."
Fendi only saw Zhang Sheng looking at him with a smile.
