The stock price of Zhongding Film and Television Co., Ltd. has been rising along with the box office hit of "Sneak Shadow". In less than three weeks, Wang Zhongding's personal assets have increased by more than one billion.
Not to mention Xia Hongwei, he is the investor of this film, and more than 40% of the box office revenue belongs to him. Not only did he earn back all the money he lost before, but he also had the momentum to make a fortune.
When the two winners were "talking over wine", Xia Hongwei kept staring at Wang Zhongding with hostile eyes.
"What are you doing?"
Wang Zhongding's face was almost occupied by the words "gloating at others' misfortune", and he asked calmly, "What's wrong with me?"
Xia Hongwei warned in a strong tone: "Don't let him be overexposed."
"Don't worry, as long as Dongdong doesn't participate in activities, he generally won't participate." Wang Zhongding said.
Xia Hongwei frowned, "Dongdong?"
Wang Zhongding was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand why the name came out of his mouth.
"Han Dong." Hastily corrected.
Xia Hongwei squinted his eyes and looked at Wang Zhongding, and said quietly: "The cry just now was kind enough~"
"Everyone in the company calls it that, so I will follow suit." Wang Zhongding said in a neutral tone.
The people of the company collectively spoke out in the distant sky: Mr. Wang, let's call him Daxian Han, okay
Xia Hongwei said again: "Then how can you ensure that Han Dong will not be overexposed?"
"Excessive consumption when his foundation is unstable will cause the audience to be full before the 'big dish' is served."
Every hit movie has a character or two in it.
Ma Bin has limited topics due to age restrictions, while Yu Ming has enough topics but not enough personal characteristics.
Only Han Dong has been a hot topic since the film was released. However, Wang Zhongding only allowed him to accept very few announcements, and he was even more cautious in endorsement. As a result, his fans are like Lan Xiang, digging everywhere every day. Even if a little bit of movement is dug out, it will be chewed repeatedly like a treasure, until there is no more taste.
While chatting, Wang Zhongding's cell phone rang.
"President Wang, Han Dong is drinking with someone again."
The caller was Liang Hu, the bodyguard and driver that Wang Zhongding had recently arranged beside Han Dong.
Comrade Xiaoliang stood out from thousands of elites by virtue of his favorite small report, and was favored and appreciated by Wang Zhongding. Usually, when Wang Zhong Ding couldn't get away, Xiao Liang would accompany Han Dong.
Wang Zhongding's expression changed, "Didn't you stop him?"
"I went to stop him, and he asked a room full of people to stop me."
Wang Zhongding, "... where are you?"
"Dihao BBQ City."
"Okay, I see."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Zhongding and Xia Hongwei greeted each other and left in a hurry.
Under normal circumstances, Wang Zhongding would not restrict Han Dong's freedom, but drinking was another matter. Han Dong's wine quality was too poor, he would roll up his sleeves and roll up his trouser legs at least, and run naked at worst.
Sure enough, when Wang Zhongding arrived, Han Dong was punching others shirtless.
"The moon is sixteen round on the fifteenth day, let's guess the lewd fist, who is lewd (rock-paper-scissors)..."
While shouting happily, suddenly a hand was placed on Han Dong's shoulder.
"Don't make trouble yet." Han Dong pushed down again.
The other people in the box were also drunk, even if they were not drunk, they might not know Wang Zhongding. Because these were Han Dong's former friends, who had nothing to do with the circle at all.
They hadn't contacted for many years, but when Han Dong became angry, they rushed to curry favor again.
It would be impossible for other artists to hide, but Han Dong loves to show off. I can't wait to call one by one, tell them where I live, and let those people hurry up and go through the back door.
Han Dong continued to yell, "Who is lewd~ I am lewd...er..."
His shoulder was almost broken, and Han Dong turned his head to see Wang Zhongding.
After a moment of sluggishness, he put his arms around Wang Zhongding's neck again, and said to the group of buddies: "This is the Mr. Wang I often mention to you. If you have anything to do, you can look for him. Don't look at Mr. Wang as stubborn, but he is actually sullen. Don't you..."
Before he could speak, he was dragged out by Wang Zhongding.
There is nothing to say to a drunk person, the only way to teach him a lesson is to continue punching him after going back.
"Who is lewd, I am lewd ~ Who is lewd, I am lewd ~"
Wang Zhongding, "You lost, take it off."
As soon as Han Dong took off his vest, he was "pinched". Immediately, he let out a sharp cry of pain, and then curled up and rolled all over the bed.
"Will you be shirtless in public next time?"
"No... no..."
Wang Zhongding asked him again: "Does it hurt?"
Han Dong whispered into Wang Zhongding's ear and said, "It's actually very cool."
Wang Zhongding turned over fiercely and pressed Han Dong under him, the smell of wine came to his nostrils.
"Where's the tongue? Why don't you play it? Stick it out!"
"I can't play anymore, I'm drunk."
"Come on, don't be lazy."
"..."
Later, Han Dong pressed Wang Zhongding under his body again, and called out in a tired voice: "Zhongzhong."
"Don't call me that." Wang Zhongding blushed.
Han Dong knew why and asked, "Why can't it be called that?"
"Fall."
"Then you call me Dongdong too, aren't we equal?"
"not called."
"Why not?"
"Nicky."
Han Dong twisted on Wang Zhongding's body mischievously again, and asked while twisting: "How numb is it? Is it so numb..."
Wang Zhongding finally couldn't hold back and shouted, "You can do it, how old are you?"
Han Dong chuckled, looked in a certain direction with his drunken eyes, and said, "I want to play."
"Play? With whom?" Wang Zhongding was puzzled.
Han Dong said, "Play alone."
"Why alone?"
"Because you won't play with me."
Wang Zhongding looked at Han Dong's slightly tired face, and suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to relax and entertain for a long time. For a playful person like Han Dong, it was indeed difficult for him to work long hours and intensively. Maybe he finds a partner to drink and talk about the mountains from time to time during this time, just to vent.
Wang Zhongding patted Han Dong on the head, "Wait until the work is over..."
I will accompany you well.
The next day, last week's box office statistics were sent to Wang Zhongding's computer.
"Seven hundred and sixty million." A considerable number.
To be honest, Wang Zhongding didn't expect to be so tall at first.
Feng Jun said: "The summer vacation is over a week away, and the box office will slowly drop, but it should be no problem to reach 800 million. From this point of view, the sum of the box office of the two films is 200 million more than our estimated 1 billion. A lot. This summer, our company has gained a lot!"
Wang Zhongding nodded, his joy was beyond words.
"Han Dong is a great hero." Feng Jun emphasized.
Wang Zhongding thought the same in his heart, but he refused to admit it, as if complimenting his wife was like narcissism.
Feng Jun reminded: "Tomorrow weekend, let's have a celebration banquet! From the start of filming to the release of this movie, the company has not expressed anything yet."
Wang Zhongding was right when he thought about it, "Go and make arrangements."
The next day, the celebration ceremony of "Sneak Shadow" was held in the banquet hall on the top floor of the company building.
Compared with the crew's previous low-key, this time it can be described as a big fanfare. All the senior executives of the company were present, hundreds of media came to help out, and many artists also came to join in the fun.
As soon as Han Dong appeared on stage, there was a commotion. The enthusiasm of the media for such a rare appearance was quite high. Almost from the moment he hit the red carpet, the flashes never stopped.
Walking through the red carpet, Han Dong signed on the publicity board under the guidance of the host.
At this time, his back was facing everyone, and he was wearing clothes that Wang Zhongding personally matched for him. Especially the pair of thin trousers, which wrapped the two lumps of meat quite round and firm.
Wang Zhongding's two gazes were more persistent than the camera, and they were always firmly attracted to them.
When Han Dong turned around, Wang Zhongding's expression returned to normal, as if he was watching other actors.
The host also asked Han Dong the same question that he asked Li Shang.
"If given the opportunity, who would you most like to work with?"
Han Dong also raised the same question as Li Shang.
"Do you have to tell the truth?"
"Of course." The host said.
The people in the audience were full of anticipation, especially a certain one.
Han Dong first glanced at Wang Zhongding, then cleared his throat.
Wang Zhongding was already ready for the last shot that he could not bear to do.
"Director Kahn! Working with Director Kahn is the biggest dream of my life."
The temperature on Wang Zhongding's face plummeted.
Then, the host said: "Today the company has prepared a big gift for you, please close your eyes, let's count down together, five, four, three, two, one..."
Wow, amidst applause and cheers, Kahn really appeared on the scene.
Han Dong was dumbfounded at the time, and exclaimed on stage regardless of his image, "Oh─My─God! I'm not dreaming, am I?"
Kahn hugged directly, "You are not dreaming, I appreciate you, young man."
The temperature on Wang Zhongding's face completely disappeared, he turned his head and asked Feng Jun: "Who designed this link?"
"I designed it so that it can not only help this movie, but also warm up the next movie. Fortunately, I asked Han Dong this question in advance, otherwise I would not have expected this surprise."
