Chapter 352: The Big Honey Battle Between Blue Whale and Huanrui
Wei Yang was very happy when the dead girl was beaten, but he was not happy for long.
Because of an accident, Wei Yang and the dead girl, the old enemies who had been fighting since 2009, inexplicably became comrades in the same theater chain.
They had a common enemy-Huanrui Century.
Anyone who knows about the entertainment industry in the future will not ignore the name Huanrui, which can be said to be a traffic generator and a wholesaler of ancient idols.
Li Xfeng, Yang Yang, Ren Jialun, Cheng Yi, Yang Zi and other stars are all from Huanrui to a certain extent, or have played a key role.
And the big flowers and small actors who have cooperated with it are countless. Take the 85 flowers as an example, basically they have dealt with Huanrui.
Here I want to talk about the development of this company. The boss of Huanrui is surnamed Chen and the boss's wife is surnamed Zhong. Like Zhou Yi, they are a couple.
The couple started their business in real estate in Singapore, and later began to get involved in film and television investment. In 2006, they established [Zhejiang Sanhe Film and Television], which is also the predecessor of Huanrui Century.
The development of Sanhe actually depends on Si Yatou. After Si Yatou became the screenwriter and even the producer, many dramas she produced, such as "Rouge Snow", "Big Maid", "Palace Lock Heart Jade", etc., were all invested by Sanhe.
In Si Yatou's words, he fought together with [Xiang Province Economic TV] and [Zhejiang Province Sanhe] in those days.
And Xiang Province Economic TV is a state-owned company under Xiang Province TV. The model is roughly that Sanhe invests, Si Yatou produces, Xiang Province TV distributes and broadcasts, and then divides the money according to the share.
In 2011, "Palace Lock Heart Jade" became super popular, Si Yatou dominated the industry, and Sanhe also made a lot of money, and was officially reorganized as Huanrui Century.
Unlike Si Yatou, who only thinks about shooting dramas and selling dramas to promote people, it is more like a family workshop. Huanrui's ambitions are much greater.
Sanhe transformed into Huanrui in order to go public, make money, operate capital, and become bigger and stronger...
At this time, Huanrui began to consciously attract and recruit some celebrity shareholders, such as Jia Nailiang, He Shengming, Du Chun, Ming Dao, Ruby Lin and other artists.
If Wei Yang hadn't intervened, Da Mimi would have been pulled into their team, and Tang Yan also rejected Tangren and joined Huanrui.
And this is precisely the key to the conflict between Huanrui and Wei Yang.
Tang Yan is lucky, she was born in Chengtian, became famous by Tangren, and then got close to Kedun and Anhui TV, and cooperated with works such as "The Three Daughters of the Xia Family".
At this moment in her previous life, Tang Yan had hesitated between Tangren and Huanrui, and also cooperated with Tangren on "Xuanyuan Sword", but finally chose Huanrui.
It is rumored that because Da Mimi and Tang Yan were very close at that time, it is difficult to say whether Tang Yan's choice was due to Da Mimi.
But the situation is different now. When she was filming "The Three Daughters of the Xia Family", Tang Yan consciously started to get close to Wei Yang, and then she completely jumped on the big ship of Blue Whale and returned to the Shanghai circle.
Not long ago, she officially joined Coral Entertainment under Wei Yang's name and became the leading artist. From the beginning to the end, she had nothing to do with Huanrui.
Because Tang Yan's resume is here, everyone knows that she is a direct descendant of Boss Wei. Huanrui is far less concerned about her than in her previous life, and turned to public relations for Da Mimi.
Unlike Tang Yan, who had joined Blue Whale very early, Da Mimi is really eating in the east and staying in the west, stepping on multiple boats.
Needless to say, the lawsuit between Rong Xinda and Tangren, and although she joined Meiya later, she became famous to a large extent because of Huanrui.
The representative work "Palace Lock Heart Jade", the later "Painted Skin 2", and the soon-to-be-released "Tiny Times", Huanrui has made a lot of efforts, which can be said to be a strong support.
As mentioned earlier, Huanrui is not doing charity. They are sure to get Da Mimi and even gave her a small portion of shares.
Everyone in Huanrui thought that Da Mimi was definitely one of them.
Then Da Mimi brought up the old story of Tangren, publicly registered her studio under the name of Coral Entertainment, and got the resource "Gu Jian Qi Tan".
The most annoying thing is that Yang Tianzhen still vowed to shoot "Zhu Xian" and let Da Mimi play Bi Yao, and the copyright of this book is in Huanrui's hands.
Damn, it's too much!
I have been getting it for free for several years, and you still want our own trump card project.
Is there still the king's law? Is there still law? Is there still humanity?
Huanrui also has a temper. They intend to retaliate against Wei Yang and poached three or four core behind-the-scenes personnel of Blue Whale. The most important thing is that they finally persuaded Lin Gengxin.
As mentioned earlier, Lin Gengxin was poached by Huayi and Huanrui and was half hidden by Wei Yang.
Boss Wei's attitude is very firm. You can leave, but the liquidated damages are enough. You can follow whoever you want.
Lin Gengxin's liquidated damages are not a small amount!
In his previous life, he ran away from Tangren and never played a male lead. The only role he could really show off was the Fourteenth Master in "Startling by Each Step", and the termination fee was only 2 million.
Since he joined Blue Whale, he has played the male lead in two popular dramas, "Hello, Old Times" and "Chef Fang in the Flower Room", and has also participated in popular projects such as "Startling by Each Step" and "Joy of Life".
From an amateur in school to a popular young actor, the resources and efforts invested can be imagined.
In addition, Blue Whale also won him some endorsements and business, which he would have to pay a certain amount of financial compensation if he wanted to terminate the contract.
Blue Whale added up the prices and finally proposed a breach of contract fee of 20 million.
This price is not low. You have to know that it is only 2013 now, and the termination fees of many stars are only about a few million.
However, it is far from a dead end, because the current star pay is soaring. Even if there are all kinds of tricks and deductions, the remaining is enough for stars to become rich.
20 million now seems not low. In two years, it is very likely that one play will make it back.
The premise is that Lin Gengxin can still maintain his current popularity and status...
But that is in the future. Lin Gengxin himself cannot afford the 20 million now.
His current income is not low. The salary is 200,000 as a base, and 300,000 is not difficult. But the key is that he has not been famous for too long. He also has to share and pay taxes to the company, as well as various other expenses. How can he save so much money?
To put it bluntly, Wei Yang actually meant to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, and there was also a deliberate punishment.
He was really sad and angry about the "betrayal" of this junior brother who made him famous.
Of course, it also implied a hint of retention. If he can't leave, then work normally, and Wei Yang can earn back the 20 million from him, and everyone will part ways in peace.
The matter was originally at a standstill. Lin himself could not afford the 20 million yuan price, nor was he willing to pay it.
After all, Blue Whale was not bad for him, and the prospects were good. At most, he would admit his weakness and be honest for two years. Wei Yang would not give him a chance. He did not need to pay such a high price to escape from the "devil's cave".
Huayi and Huanrui also had some doubts about the price. It was not that they could not afford the money, but they were worried about whether it was worth it.
If it was Qiao Zhenyu, there would be no doubt, because he would definitely make money back, and Rouba and Naza, who had high commercial value and explosive popularity, could also be considered.
But the problem is that although Lin Gengxin has advantages, they are not so obvious. With the 20 million yuan, it is better to train others by himself, and save Wei Yang.
Now it's good, Huanrui's defense has been broken, and the two options of cost-effectiveness and offending people have been directly abandoned.
It's poaching, not making money, but disgusting Wei Yang.
Huanrui even encouraged Lin Gengxin to sue Blue Whale. 20 million is not a small amount. It might arouse public sympathy, and being stabbed back by the person he personally trained, the damage was full.
However, Lin Gengxin may be nostalgic, or he does not want to offend Wei Yang to death, and did not agree to sue his old boss.
In late April, with the help of Huanrui, Lin Gengxin paid the penalty and announced his departure from Blue Whale. On the same day, he officially announced his joining Huanrui Century.
Originally, although the two sides were quite explosive, they had not yet torn their faces.
But perhaps they felt that the 20 million was a bit of a loss, and simply poaching was not enough to relieve their anger.
Jiang Sanshi, vice president of Huanrui and head of the agency, directly implied Wei Yang by name in an interview.
"...20 million yuan in liquidated damages is unique in the industry. We are brothers, but it is rare to be so black-hearted..."
This statement angered Lei Chun, the vice president of Blue Whale, who responded directly on Weibo, detailing the training and efforts for Lin Gengxin, and said bluntly.
"...They keep talking about big stars and big productions. To put it bluntly, it's just borrowing chickens to lay eggs. They can't lay them themselves, and they think that others' hard-earned ones are expensive. If you can't afford to dig them up, don't dig them up. They are just villains who stir up discord behind the scenes..."
This remark successfully broke Jiang Sanshi's defense and made the couple of Huanrui very angry.
Good guy, we are scolded for poaching, why don't you say anything about poaching?
So the two sides had a verbal battle, and from the Lin Gengxin incident, the lawsuit of Da Mimi was finally brought out.
Da Mimi was forced to clarify on Weibo that she and Huanrui never had any written or various agreements, and she was an artist of Meiya from beginning to end.
After that, Da Mimi simply withdrew her shares from Huanrui in the name of her studio and announced that she was no longer a shareholder of Huanrui, which was a bit like a clean break.
Even Wei Yang said in an interview that he and Da Mimi decided to cooperate after knowing that Huanrui had contacted Lin Gengxin.
Although it was not said explicitly, the meaning was very clear. To win over Da Mimi was to retaliate against Huanrui...
Up to now, the outside world has basically recovered. Blue Whale has left Lin Gengxin and several backbones, and Da Mimi, who Huanrui regarded as a sure thing, has joined Wei Yang.
Both sides have their own wins and losses, and Wei Yang has the upper hand overall!
And at this moment, Blue Whale and Huanrui officially broke up, and both sides began to launch various targeted measures.
Poaching, throwing dirty water, digging up black materials, and tripping... They did everything possible, and at this time, the dead girl became the decisive factor.
As mentioned earlier, Huanrui's rise is inseparable from the contribution of the dead girl, but the dead girl is not a member of Huanrui, and his personal studio and Huanrui have always been in a cooperative nature.
Huanrui reorganized before, and took out a lot of shares to attract stars, but the list of shareholders did not include Si Yatou, a key partner.
Whether Huanrui was ready to kick Si Yatou out or Si Yatou did not want to be inferior to others, outsiders were not sure.
But what is certain is that from this moment on, the relationship between the two parties has changed from the original close strategic partners to a bit playful and distant.
Huanrui's predecessor Sanhe was previously just a simple film and television investment, and film and television production was all done by Si Yatou.
Now Huanrui has turned into a formal entertainment company, not only to promote artists, but also to shoot new dramas, but to shoot new dramas, a mature production team is required.
Huanrui has been eyeing Si Yatou's team from the beginning to form this production team.
As early as last year, Si Yatou's producer Lin Guohua left him and joined Huanrui, and the studio artist director also joined Huanrui soon after.
Li Yalin, the screenwriter brought in by Dead Girl, still hooked up with Huanrui after falling out with Dead Girl.
A few days ago, when the dead girl was beaten, Li Yalin made a sharp comment: "It's expected, but I'm not ashamed of her as a human being."
Many core members and backbones of his subordinates have been poached, and it would be strange if the dead girl has no ideas. In her last life, that is, this year and next, the two parties completely parted ways.
The dead girl later founded Huanyu, so she had no intention of competing with Huanrui.
Later, in reply to a comment from a netizen who thought he was born in Huanrui, the dead girl replied arrogantly: "I set up the framework for the couple... I am their ancestor."
The dead girl had never had an attack before because of various concerns. Huanrui was quite powerful and had been his financial backer. He was afraid of falling out and causing revenge.
But Huanrui and Blue Whale faced each other, and Wuxia ignored him, and the dead girl got excited. After a certain key member was poached, he wrote a "chast" against Huanrui on Weibo.
As a senior screenwriter, Dead Girl is still very good at characterizing the story. In the "Essay", she tells the whole story about herself and Huanrui with half truth and half lies.
The general meaning is that the growth of a small screenwriter and two rich "fans", one contributes money, the other contributes, both sides make a fortune.
Later, when his career became bigger, his fans turned against him and began to be ungrateful, betrayed their friendship, kicked the screenwriter away, poached him, and provided him with dirty information.
The screenwriter was wronged no matter what. He wanted to endure it again and again so that we could get together and part ways, but he didn't expect the other party to be aggressive, so he had no choice but to tell the truth.
Holy shit!
The fate of the dead girl shocked everyone, including Huanrui and Blue Whale, who were having a lively fight.
Even Wei Yang was a little confused.
Because compared to the conflict with Huanrui, Dead Girl and Wei Yang have been sworn enemies for several years and have been rubbed against each other for several years.
Most of the ridicule that the dead girl has been subjected to over the years is because of Wei Yang. The two sides did not say that they were fighting to the death, but they also stayed away from each other until death.
Huanrui and Dead Girl haven't fallen out yet. No matter how the two sides fight, Dead Girl will help Huanrui.
But it happened that the dead girl chose to help Wei Yang, or in other words, he never helped Wei Yang, but was petty and hated Huan Rui for being "ungrateful", so he chose to backstab at the critical moment.
The dead girl's stance was undoubtedly sensational, causing the entire public opinion to shift to one side.
There is no way to make Wei Yang and Dead Girl, two old enemies, join forces. It is conceivable how much weight Huanrui's dirty information has, and the character of Huanrui and his wife have been greatly questioned.
The dead girl took the opportunity to cause trouble and started poaching Huanrui. The two families were basically one of them, and the other of them.
Huanrui can easily poach the dead girl's people, and the dead girl can naturally attract a group of Huanrui people regardless of her worries.
When the dead girl started to fight back, Blue Whale and Wei Yang stopped, no longer making any moves, and even the amplitude of various previous moves dropped a lot.
Just when Huanrui was confused, he heard a bolt from the blue.
Wei Yang acquired a company that happened to have a legal dispute with the company that Huanrui was preparing to go public on the backdoor. In theory, Wei Yang could use this company to block Huanrui's listing plan to a certain extent.
Huanrui's listing plan was not going well to begin with, and it has recently experienced a lot of negative publicity. If Wei Yang buys the company at the bottom like this, it may really be a blessing in disguise.
"grass……"
Huanrui is really having a headache. Isn't it just poaching and quarreling with each other? It's a common thing in the circle. As for doing it to the point of death...
