Yanjing Dayu Entertainment Company.
As soon as Chairman Zhang Tianyu entered the office, he asked the finance department to report to him about the company's top girl, Mu Wan's work and various income from the film and television industry.
The accountant also smiled. The company's artists made a lot of money, so they would get more annual dividends.
"Chairman, you really have a good eye. You can find a potential stock like Mu Wan. The company's stock rose 200% because of Mu Wan!"
Chairman Zhang Tianyu waved his hand. "Okay, okay, I know all this. Hurry up and report Mu Wan's work and income for the next six months."
In fact, he was secretly proud of himself.
The accountant nodded, stroked his eyes and began to report, "The reality show 'Beautiful Sister' has signed the fixed guest list for four seasons. According to the salary of 30 million a season, 120 million a year can be guaranteed. Then there are two large-scale costume TV series that are currently being filmed, according to the salary of 800,000 per episode, 40 million for 50 episodes, and 90 million for two episodes, which will be settled in half a year. As for the other three movies, 20 million each, 60 million plus movie dividends. Based on the average box office of Mu Wan's previous movies of no less than 300 million, the box office dividends of the movies are expected to be an additional 100 million. According to preliminary evaluation, the minimum income of the three movies is expected to be 160 million. In addition, in addition to the already signed endorsement contracts, the company has currently negotiated with four big companies for Mu Wan, all at a price of no less than 30 million in three years. The four endorsements will also be 120 million. In the next year, Mu Wan can create a value of 500 million!"
Chairman Zhang Tianyu was overjoyed.
Sure enough, it was not in vain that he had invested so much money into this woman. It was finally the season for him to make a profit. In order to promote this woman, he had used all his connections in the circle. He asked her to appear in various programs and found all kinds of famous directors to be popular in the film and TV series. It could be said that she had climbed up in the past two years and had steadily become the number one girl of the younger generation in the entertainment circle.
"By the way, haven't the two costume TV series been submitted to the SARFT for release? Let the PR department quickly hype it up. It's best to make Mu Wan on the hot headlines. No matter what, scandals will do. "
The accountant nodded.
At this time, Zhang Tianyu's phone rang.
He took a look and saw that it was a call from the producer of one of the costume TV series.
The person on the other side asked with some confusion, "Chairman Zhang, are you trying to trick me? Who did Mu Wan offend? Why is my film blocked by the higher-ups? "
"Stuck?" Chairman Zhang was also puzzled, but he still asked with a smile, "Producer Wu, why are you asking me about it? Besides, your costume film doesn't have any issues with tampering with sensitive content or disrespecting history, right? How could I not? "
The other side immediately got angry. "I went to the Deputy Chief but he didn't let me pass. I used my connections to let me pass but there was a request. Guess what?"
Chairman Zhang: "What's wrong?"
Producer Wu: "They said either we remove Mu Wan's scenes, or we don't approve it."
"That's impossible, right?" Chairman Zhang was speechless. "Paper Wu, you're so well-connected, yet they still dare to block you?"
Producer Wu sneered. "I went directly to Mango TV to talk, but they flatly refused to let me air it on their station. Tell me, how capable is your Mu Wan? Who did she offend?"
"Our Mu Wan has always been fine." Zhang Tianyu felt the seriousness of the matter. "Maybe it's not because of our Mu Wan?"
"Why not! I used my best connections to get them to tell me that Mu Wan was singled out by the higher-ups for having a problem with her style. Brother Zhang, how about this? I don't care about your artist's business, but if you really can't get her into this movie, we still have to settle the score. I've already spent 150 million on the actors' salaries for this movie, so I can't just give the other artists their salaries for nothing just because of your Mu Wan. "
"Don't worry, let me think about this. I'll think of a way, I'll call you later," Zhang Tianyu said.
Producer Wu: "Hurry up."
He hung up.
The accountant saw that Zhang Tianyu's face, which was full of high spirits and a moment ago, frowned.
The other employees of the accounting department ran in in a panic and said, "Chairman Zhang, bad news, someone is checking our company's accounts."
Zhang Tianyu's expression changed slightly, and he paced back and forth with his hands on his hips. This was very strange.
"Go and entertain the good people first, I'll make the call," he said to the accountant.
Zhang Tianyu took out his phone and called the relevant department he knew, asking, "Hello, Brother Li, what's going on? They didn't even give me a call to check the accounts, I wasn't mentally prepared at all. "
The person on the other end of the line laughed bitterly. "Good luck. It's not me who wants to check, but a few of the higher-ups have set up something called 'Reorganize Culture and Entertainment' and are starting to thoroughly investigate the artists' style and income, financial, and tax transparency. I'm not in charge of this, I'm not even a fart. Don't call me, just settle your family's finances."
Settle my ass.
Chairman Zhang was dumbfounded. Which entertainment company didn't lie about their artists' income or tamper with it?
The artists' tax was so high, who would honestly hand over all their cards?
After hanging up, Chairman Zhang called the bosses of other companies and asked.
"Hello? Old Wang, did the 'Reorganize Culture and Entertainment' department investigate your family's financial accounts and the artists' information? "
"No, who did you hear that from? I'm doing fine here. No one came to check. Did you hear something?"
"No, I'm just asking casually." After hanging up, Zhang Tianyu leaned back in his chair, his heart tightened. He knew that this so-called rectification was aimed at his family or Mu Wan.
At this time, another call came in.
It was from another producer of a costume TV series.
Zhang Tianyu's heart skipped a beat, but he still answered the phone hesitantly.
The person on the other end scolded directly, "Boss Zhang, the higher-ups want to delete Mu Wan's scenes, otherwise they won't pass. Can you give me an explanation? What kind of nonsense is your Mu Wan stirring up recently? "
Zhang Tianyu swallowed his saliva. "Old Gao, don't get excited. I still don't understand this matter. Wait for me to solve it first, then I'll call you back."
As soon as he hung up, the finance officer who had just reported to him ran in and said, "Chairman Zhang, the four advertising companies that have just negotiated sent a lawyer's letter, saying that they want to cancel the contract and refund, or they will appeal for breach of contract. I said that we didn't breach the contract. They said that according to the contract, Mu Wan must have many works in the TV industry in the future, but they said that Mu Wan's two TV series have been canceled, which is equivalent to violating the bargaining chip they had discussed before. What a joke, we don't even know, how did they know that Mu Wan's TV series have been canceled? Now they can't even beg for it, so they threw the script to Mu Wan. "
Chairman Zhang smiled bitterly. "Venture capital firms aren't incompetent. The news will definitely spread faster than us. They're right. Mu Wan predicted that the two upcoming period dramas will be canceled." The accountant's mouth was agape.
Chairman Zhang directly called Mu Wan's manager.
It took a long time for the other side to pick up.
"What has Mu Wan been doing recently?" Zhang Tianyu roared as soon as the call went through.
The other side stammered for a long time, but didn't know what to say.
"This should be a misunderstanding. That day at the airport, we thought that they were paparazzi following us, so we argued with them. Mu Wan didn't let us off, but in the end, we didn't know that they … probably offended this person."
Zhang Tianyu: "Speak clearly, who is this person? What's his name? Do you know his background? Hurry up and tell me, I can still save them! They are very fast, how could they not report this to me? "
Mu Wan's manager hesitated for a moment, then remembered that Chairman Zhang also had a background in Yan Jin.
"Chairman Zhang, I'm sure this guy is a high-ranking official in Yan Jin, I thought this would be fine. You have to help Mu Wan, she has only been popular for two years, but we used all the resources in the company, we can't let her collapse."
The manager was more worried about her own benefits. As long as Mu Wan continued to be popular, wouldn't she have a good life? Therefore, the boss couldn't collapse.
Zhang Tianyu's face darkened. "Of course I know we can't collapse, how much money and effort did I put in? If she collapses, I will kill her! Tell me, who did she offend? Do you know his name? I still have some connections in Yan Jin, if worse comes to worst, we can just ask Mu Wan to apologize. "
The manager: "He's quite ugly, it's because he's too ugly, that's why we were rude. I didn't expect him to be in a Hongqi car."
"Hongqi … Hongqi car?" Zhang Tianyu bit his tongue, then thought about it. Hongqi cars were already in mass production, maybe he was overthinking.
"Do you remember the plate number?"
The manager: "The plate number is just a number, Yan Jin, number 1."
Zhang Tianyu really bit his tongue this time.
"Motherf * cker!"
The manager carefully said, "Chairman Zhang, Mu Wan also knows that the other party might be a high-ranking official in Yan Jin, she said she would do anything for him, although he is ugly, she is prepared to sacrifice everything, as long as she can be forgiven."
Zhang Tianyu: "Go to hell, no matter how ugly he is, Mu Wan doesn't deserve to pay for him! She really caused a big mess for me! "
