On the outskirts of Los Angeles, California, there is one of the world's most famous film and television entertainment bases, that is Hollywood.
After Jiang Heng went abroad, he was mixed in Hollywood. He started doing all kinds of part-time jobs for others, and then finally got the appreciation of a director and became the assistant of the other party. He worked hard to get to where he is now step.
Now that Jiang Heng has his own company, he can already shoot large-scale movies independently. Compared with the past, it can be said that there is a world of difference. It is probably because he has suffered too much that he is able to do so. You will pay more attention to your career.
Jiang Chengyi seldom came here before the age of eighteen, but later lived here for many years, so he is very familiar with this place, and can clearly say the names of various places and even hotels.
He took Yu Rui to find a hotel room first, and then Jiang Chengyi called Jiang Heng.
For Jiang Chengyi's coming to Hollywood, Jiang Heng felt a little happy, and soon gave the other party the specific address of his residence for the two to go there.
After hearing the address Jiang Heng said, Jiang Chengyi was slightly taken aback. He was not unfamiliar with that place. When he went abroad and had to ask Jiang Heng for help, Jiang Heng let him live in that house and arranged for him He hired a nanny who was a little too enthusiastic, and said that it was his vacant house.
At that time, he was a little puzzled, and didn't understand why Jiang Heng's vacant house was decorated so well. Now it seems... It turned out that it was Jiang Heng's residence.
It's still the house I lived in, or the nanny back then. The only difference is that there are a lot more things in the house, right
What he discovered by accident made Jiang Chengyi feel better after being extremely disappointed by Chen Yuan. After sitting down, he asked again: "Dad, have you checked carefully? What's going on?"
"Of course I have had a check-up. I still pay attention to my body." Jiang Heng smiled. He actually pays attention to maintenance, that is, he was too worn out when he was young, and he ran around as a director. There were some problems, and now they are posted together: "High blood pressure or something is not considered a serious illness now, it is a problem on the bone, which makes people feel particularly uncomfortable. Now, whether it is my waist or neck Not so good."
"Dad, I'll accompany you to the hospital tomorrow, and you need to rest more in the future." Jiang Chengyi said, such a disease is difficult to cure, and he doesn't know the specific situation, so he should go to the hospital to ask if there is anything wrong as well.
"Okay." Jiang Heng nodded, he was worried that he would not have the opportunity to develop a relationship with Jiang Chengyi, and of course he would not refuse the other party's proposal.
Jiang Heng usually spends more time in the company than at home, and when he was in the company, two assistants took care of his daily life, so he only hired a nanny at home, and that nanny was a chubby The black woman, named Laura, was very warm. Jiang Chengyi got along very well with her at the beginning, and even liked her very much, but this person also has a small shortcoming - she cooks, and she comes and goes in the same way.
This day's dinner was cooked by her. The main food was pasta, and there were some other side dishes, which were very hearty. Jiang Chengyi took a look and found that more than half of the dishes she could cook had already been served. If it is here, maybe I will have to eat the same food every day in the future
Glancing at Yu Rui, Jiang Chengyi suddenly felt that it was necessary for him to let Yu Rui get in touch with Laura more - Yu Rui's cooking skills were much better than Laura's!
Although Yu Rui said that his English is not very good, he can still communicate in a simple way. When he saw a table of dishes, he immediately expressed his appreciation to Laura, which made Laura look at him eagerly.
Unlike Jiang Chengyi, Yu Rui even planned to learn how to make western food from Laura—since Jiang Chengyi lived in the United States when he was young, he must also like to eat western food, right
"Since you're here, stay a few more days. I'll ask Laura to clean up a room for you." Jiang Heng said after eating.
"Dad, we've already booked a room at the hotel." Jiang Chengyi said in a daze, he was really not used to Jiang Heng like this.
"Then you can retire," Jiang Heng said, "I still have a lot of things to tell you, don't you plan to develop as a director, follow me around in the next few days Bar."
After a little hesitation, Jiang Chengyi nodded in agreement.
The next day Jiang Chengyi accompanied Jiang Heng to see the doctor who had made an appointment earlier. Jiang Heng's condition may not be very serious, but I am afraid that if he is not careful, he will suffer from back pain and neck pain. A director is definitely not good enough. All this is definitely a big blow to Jiang Heng, who values his career very much.
"Jason, although many people here will donate their property generously after death, I can't do this. Can you take over my company earlier?" Jiang Heng sighed after coming out of the hospital .
Jiang Chengyi doesn't mind taking over Jiang Heng's company, but this company was founded by Jiang Heng, and now Jiang Heng is just not suitable to be a director anymore, what will happen if the two of them have differences in the future? "Dad, you are okay now, there is no rush."
Even if he wants to develop abroad, he will definitely only participate in some movies or make some investments at the beginning. It is still a bit difficult for him to take over the next film production company to produce his own movies... After all, it is still a bit difficult.
Jiang Heng didn't continue talking. The relationship between him and Jiang Chengyi has always been flat. If the relationship with Jiang Chengyi hadn't improved a few days ago, it would have been difficult for him to take the initiative to let Jiang Chengyi take over his company. Now that Jiang Chengyi has If he refused, of course he would not say anything more.
However, not to mention his body, he also promised his parents not to let Chen Yuan snatch Jiang Heng away...
After looking at the body, Jiang Heng took Jiang Chengyi to the company, and now he is making a horror film, the theme is a bit old-fashioned, that is, a certain research institute researched a monster, and then the monster went around killing people. This kind of film has been shot by many people before, but it is rare to make a good one.
Jiang Heng brought Jiang Chengyi here, intending to introduce some advanced technologies here to the other party, and also wanted to explain some director knowledge to Jiang Chengyi. He made up his mind because of these things that he could not learn in China. determined to stay abroad.
In a movie, although the acting skills of the actors and the script are very important, some technical things cannot be ignored.
Jiang Heng took Jiang Chengyi to the shooting location. His investment in this film was not too large, and he did not place high hopes on it. It was a commercial film made when there was no good script that caught his eye for the time being. Forget it, because of this, the director used someone else.
However, this movie is in 3D. Nowadays, foreign technicians are required to make 3D movies in China. Under such circumstances, it is enough to shock Jiang Chengyi.
Jiang Heng confidently wanted to surprise his son, but Jiang Chengyi's reaction was completely different from what he had imagined.
In technology, there are innovations every year. Jiang Chengyi has seen the high-end technology a few years later, and has participated in the shooting of a big-budget movie a few years later. Of course, he will not feel strange about everything now, but only think it is very common.
Therefore, instead of paying attention to what Jiang Heng introduced, he began to study the filming of this movie very seriously.
"Dad, can I read the script?" Jiang Chengyi asked after looking around.
When the film was released in the United States, the response was mediocre, but it also made some money, but as far as he knows, the film ended up being very popular in China.
In the next few years, I don't know if it was because Han Tian's protagonist's halo was too strong. Several well-known domestic directors have made literary films. Those who don't make literary films are films written by Han Tian or Letting Han Tian be the protagonist, only Xu Zhiping was an accident. So in the end, the highest-grossing films were just a few films written by Han Tian and invested by Tianxia Films. Among these films, there were no horror films.
Because of this, Jiang Heng's 3D horror film is actually very popular in China, and it made Han Tian feel uncomfortable and felt that Jiang Heng made things difficult for him in order to avenge him.
In the book, even though he is abroad, he has devoted himself to being a villain, and even made Han Tian's several plans to enter Hollywood to win Mosca's award fail, and this movie is the one he gave to the villain. One of the troubles Han Tian brought.
"No problem." Jiang Heng said, his son made such a request, of course he would not be dissatisfied.
Jiang Chengyi looked at the script, and it was no different from the finished movie he saw later. Some nervous and frightening plots were well designed, and he couldn't see anything that needed to be changed at his level, but there was one thing Maybe he needs to be reminded about unplanned things.
In China, there are no ratings for movies, but they have to be reviewed for release. There was a mistake during the review of this movie. The final release time was late and missed a good time. Not to mention, it is even more depressing. It should be It's just that a few wonderful but somewhat cruel scenes were deleted.
It’s nothing more than the deleted scenes. When this movie was released, he had just left the country, and Jiang Heng found a good script and planned to do a big job, so in the end, he didn’t make up a better scene...
Maybe, now he can make some preparations in advance? At least the connection between the front and back must be flawless.
Jiang Chengyi didn't intend to tell anyone the secret of rebirth, so when Jiang Heng explained some knowledge to him, he didn't express too much, but even so, Jiang Heng was already shocked—he knew that Jiang Chengyi had some knowledge. Director knowledge, but unexpectedly, Jiang Chengyi knew far more than he thought.
As expected, he was Jiang Heng's son! Seeing Jiang Chengyi's performance, Jiang Heng couldn't help feeling a little proud.
Because he was very satisfied with Jiang Chengyi's performance, when Jiang Chengyi told him about the review of the film in China, Jiang Heng also seriously considered it.
China is a huge market in every aspect, Jiang Heng is also very clear about this, maybe because he is Chinese, in fact he attaches great importance to the Chinese market...
"I will think about it carefully." Jiang Heng nodded, and asked again: "This film is almost finished, what time do you think it would be better to release?" He asked, of course, in China.
"It's better during the Chinese New Year." Jiang Chengyi said, he remembered that this Chinese New Year, Han Tian's "People on the Journey" will also be released, right? During the Chinese New Year, many well-known directors did not shoot new movies. The only two they shot were scripts written by Han Tian, so Han Tian became very popular... But this time, he The good movie that I know is being filmed is Li Hui's war movie, and it is definitely too late for this movie to be released during the Chinese New Year.
"Then I have to hurry up." Jiang Heng said, just about to talk to Jiang Chengyi about something else, when he saw the director who made the film come over and smiled at Jiang Chengyi: "Hey, young man, do you have any questions?" Not interested in a small role in this movie?"
Jiang Chengyi knew that the other party was referring to a trick, and he didn't refuse: "OK!" It would be nice to let Han Tian respond a little more, wouldn't it
It's been a long time since Jiang Chengyi played a small role that died as soon as he appeared, but this time he experienced it again, and all his lines are just yelling in terror when facing death.
Originally, he was supposed to call in English, but under Jiang Heng's suggestion, he changed it to Chinese, so among a group of people shouting "God", Jiang Chengyi suddenly said: "Jade Emperor!"
It was a bit late when Jiang Chengyi and Jiang Heng returned home that day, and after they returned home, they all followed the domestic news by coincidence.
It has been more than two days since Jiang Chengyi left Shanghai, and the investigation on Huang Qing over there has come to an end. Although Huang Qing and the money have not been recovered, the police have found an important clue—in the villa where Huang Qing was hiding before. , there are many fingerprints of Chen Fang, and there are even Huang Qing's fingerprints on the door handle of Chen Fang's car!
Chen Yuan wanted to help Chen Fang hide this matter, but after the police intervened, this matter could not be carried out according to her idea, so Chen Fang, who originally wanted to be hospitalized safely, was called to the police after all. At the same time, the news spread.
The case that happened before Yuanying turned out to be done by Chen Fang, who held Yuanying's stock and participated in some of Yuanying's decision-making. This news can be said to be very amazing!
Yuanying was founded by Chen Yuan's father, and the company also has many old people left by him at that time. The company's operation these years has relied on these old people. As the chairman, what Chen Yuan needs to do is to hold regular board meetings And care about the operation of the company.
Chen Yuan may have many shortcomings, but she is definitely a trustworthy person. The management of Yuanying is very good, and she will never interfere in other people's decisions rashly, so the people in the company are very convinced of her. Half a year ago After she caught the big moth, everyone was full of energy, but they didn't expect such a thing to happen in just half a year!
Chen Fang is different from Chen Yuan, she is not someone who will be satisfied with the dividends, so she often intervenes in the company's affairs. I have to say that she really has some means, and she is good at communication, but the company Some people like her, but more people hate her.
A young actor who has just joined the company may just be good-looking, as long as he climbs into her bed, he will be able to get all kinds of good opportunities, while another person with good acting skills may not be able to find opportunities to make his mark... While making some people famous, Chen Fang offended more people.
Now that something happened to Chen Fang, many people felt sorry, but more people secretly cursed "It's what they deserve" and planned to watch the show and even hoped that Chen Fang could leave the board of directors, but under such circumstances, Chen Yuan was still trying to find a way to give Chen Fang was exonerated...
Yuan Ying lost such a large sum of money. When she didn't know that it was related to Chen Fang, Yuan Ying's management blamed herself and actively thought of a solution. They also worked hard to control the situation and let Yuan Ying It didn't stop working, but now that it was related to Chen Fang, all the people were angry, funny, and disappointed—they had done so much before, but they were no different than fools, right? Since Chen Yuan and Chen Fang don't want the company anymore, why should they follow suit
Yuanying's management was in a state of panic, not to mention the artists under him. Suddenly, countless companies found Yuanying and started poaching them.
Faced with such a situation, Jiang Chengyi even felt a little gloating. When he was just reborn, he also had the idea of Yuan Ying, hoping to get Chen Yuan's help. But now, those thoughts have disappeared, and now he even hopes that Yuanying can go bankrupt. After all, without Yuanying's backing, Chen Fang is nothing.
Thinking about it this way, Chen Fang is actually quite stupid—she even dug up the foot of her backer, and even dug her backer so hard that it was about to fall down!
"Jason, I'm going to buy Yuanying's shares." While Jiang Chengyi was watching the news, Jiang Heng knocked on his door with a cup of coffee.
"Why?" Jiang Chengyi asked in surprise. Although some people wanted to buy Yuanying, they were all rejected by Chen Yuan in the end. So at this moment, everyone is waiting to see Yuanying's good show, Jiang Heng...
"Other people want to buy Yuanying's shares, and Chen Yuan may not agree, because she doesn't want Yuanying to change hands, but I'm definitely different." Jiang Heng said, Chen Yuan may be showing some unfeeling towards Jiang Chengyi, but he knows that , there is still his role in this, Jiang Chengyi, after all, is Chen Yuan's only son.
Thinking of the previous conversation with Chen Yuan, Jiang Heng secretly sighed again.
Jiang Chengyi frowned, he was completely disappointed with Chen Yuan, so he even found it a little funny when Jiang Heng said that. However, personal feelings will not affect Jiang Chengyi's decision-making. He suddenly thought of something, if he or Jiang Heng became the largest shareholder of Yuanying, then Chen Fang's threat to him would no longer exist, right
"Dad, Yuanying has a deep foundation in China, and has its own uniqueness after operating for so long. Although there are some problems now, if the chairman is replaced, then those problems will not exist... But , so that you must acquire more than 30% of Yuanying's shares!" At this time, it is definitely suitable to take advantage of the fire.
Jiang Heng nodded. He is a director, but he is also a businessman. When he told Chen Yuan that he would buy Yuanying's shares at the original price, he planned to recommend a general manager to Chen Yuan and completely exclude Chen Fang. Yes, this way he will definitely not suffer. But now, he has already planned to spend some effort to suppress the price and then buy the shares in Chen Yuan's hands. He can even buy all her shares, and then directly appoint someone he trusts to manage Yuanying...
It is impossible for Jiang Heng to let go of such an opportunity to get a big company for a small amount of money: "That's right. Although Yuan Ying has experienced a big turmoil, the foundation is still there. I met a man not long ago. The young man who plans to return to China has managed an entertainment company here, so he must be able to serve as the general manager of Hao Yuanying."
"Dad, since you've already made up your mind, don't you need to ask me again?" Jiang Chengyi smiled, Jiang is still old and spicy, Jiang Heng probably already had such a plan, right
"No, there is one thing I still want to ask you," Jiang Heng said, "I have already contacted Chen Yuan, and she said that if you want to buy Yuanying's shares, she is willing to sell all the shares in her hand." Sell."
Chen Yuan wants to sell all the shares of Yuanying? Jiang Chengyi opened his eyes wide in shock, but then he was a little disappointed: "I don't have that much money."
"Isn't the box office of your new movie very high now? I can find a way to get you a sum of money first, and you can pay it back when the time comes," Jiang Heng said, and said, "I know. Zhiping’s investment is not enough, right? But I think you can see that I have some experience in 3D movie production, so I can help him out, and the required investment will be much less.”
He found someone to watch over Yuanying, all Jiang Chengyi had to do was to get the dividends, and he didn't need to interfere, but Xu Zhiping's movie was different, he could tell that Jiang Chengyi attached great importance to this movie, since this , for the sake of this movie, I guess Jiang Chengyi will stay here, right
Become a shareholder of Yuanying? I have to say that Jiang Chengyi was really moved by this point. He knew that Chen Fang had no good intentions for him, but if he became a shareholder of Yuanying, then what would Chen Fang be
Without too much hesitation, Jiang Chengyi nodded directly. He could already imagine Chen Fang's face after the incident was completed. Such a result is definitely the most uncomfortable for Chen Fang!
Jiang Heng's actions were quick, and on the second day, he brought the general manager he had already found for Yuanying to Jiang Chengyi.
This is the first time Jiang Chengyi, a man in his thirties, has seen the other party's name many times in that book. In that book, when Han Tian met Chen Fang, he was already Yuan Ying's general manager is gone, and even has a bad relationship with Chen Fang, which makes Chen Fang hate him so much.
This time, the general manager was found by Jiang Heng, so what happened back then
Could it be that when the matter between him and Yu Rui broke out, Yuanying also had a problem, and then Jiang Heng also got involved
But at that time, what did Jiang Heng and Chen Yuan think of him who was falling into a trough
Maybe, Chen Yuan will misunderstand Yu Rui's medicine just like him, maybe, Jiang Heng will think this is a good opportunity for him to go abroad...
Jiang Chengyi had several thoughts in his mind, and suddenly felt a little cold. However, no matter how uncomfortable he was, he always had a smile on his face, and chatted with the person Jiang Heng selected for a long time—at least, this person has real materials, and now the chairman of Yuanying is already him.
Jiang Chengyi stayed in the United States for a long time and didn't have much time to accompany Yu Rui. Instead, he followed Jiang Heng around and learned a lot. And half a month later, he became the chairman of Yuanying, and owed Jiang Heng a large sum of money at the same time.
Jiang Chengyi didn't care too much about the money he owed, because "Strive to Be a Hero" has been offline these days, with a total domestic box office revenue of 930 million, and the money earned by this movie is enough for him Pay off the bill.
After the matter was over, Jiang Chengyi asked Jiang Heng for a few days of vacation in the name of not having traveled well in the United States, and then drove a car to take a self-driving tour with Yu Rui.
Jiang Heng didn't stop him, and even encouraged him to take a good look at the scenery of the United States - if Jiang Chengyi could have a sense of belonging to the United States, it would be great!
Jiang Heng didn't react too much, but the nanny Laura was very reluctant to part with Yu Rui - in the past half a month, she and Yu Rui studied cooking together, and she had completely fallen under Yu Rui's suit pants.
Jiang Chengyi and Yu Rui drove north together - Las Vegas is located in the northeast of Los Angeles, not far away, and it is definitely the most suitable place to get married.
Originally, Jiang Chengyi wanted to say hello to Jiang Heng, but after seeing the man who had gone to China to become the general manager of Yuanying, he immediately put this idea to rest.
Just when Jiang Chengyi was planning to solve his major life issues first and then go back to China to hold a board meeting in Yuanying, on the other hand, he just planned to use the unexpected windfall to form a company. Thinking that Jiang Chengyi didn't have his own company yet, he felt that he was finally on his way. Han Tian in front of Jiang Chengyi just got the news that Jiang Chengyi became the chairman of Yuanying, his whole face was distorted.
At the same time, Chen Fang, who finally got out of the police station because Chen Yuan made up for Yuan Ying's deficit and made great efforts, also got the news, and twisted her face just like Han Tian.
Jiang Chengyi, unexpectedly became the chairman of Yuanying
