Chapter 220: Cleaning up the mess and preparing for a rainy day (1.1, please vote)
"Uncle Han, there is a problem that you need to pay attention to."

Since I have given some advice to Mr. Han San, I have to explain some of the pitfalls to him clearly.

After all, the uncle and nephew were called.

"what is the problem?"

"When you choose actors, pay attention to their nationality. If a Chinese mother has a birthday and a bunch of foreign children come to celebrate, do you think it's appropriate?"

"Okay, I'll pay attention." Mr. Han was surprised and nodded immediately.

Lin Yicheng’s “immigration” incident this time is completely false.

But some people actually immigrated!

If we really want to find those people, we'll have to wait until the movie is released.

What do the audience think?

How do the higher-ups view him?

"It doesn't matter if you don't shoot this movie, but you have to come and play a role when the time comes."

"No problem, just give me a small role with one line, I promise." Lin Yicheng agreed readily.

……

"By the way, why didn't you submit your work for the Olympic theme song?" Uncle Han San asked casually, remembering this.

"I can't write about such a grand topic." Lin Yicheng smiled.

When the Olympic Committee was soliciting theme songs, he was contacted by him, but he declined.

It’s not that I’m reluctant to give up the copyright of a song.

Me and You...

He can't win.

No matter how good the song is, it can’t win.

He is both a referee and a contestant.

Lin Yicheng didn't want to humiliate himself.

Therefore, he just agreed to participate in the star-studded singing of "Beijing Welcomes You", show his face and give face, that's all.

Seeing that Lin Yicheng was insincere, Mr. Han guessed the reason and didn't mention it any more.

"How long will it take to edit your movie?"

"Late September or early October, it depends."

"On the Lunar New Year schedule?"

"It must be the Lunar New Year movie."

"Assembly and The Warlords are also scheduled for the Lunar New Year holiday, did you know that?"

"I know."

"You..." Master Han paused, then continued, "Some things are almost done."

"If we continue to make trouble, it will be bad for everyone, don't you think?"

"Uncle Han, who are you lobbying for?"

Although Lin Yicheng knew his limits, he knew it was enough and it was time to stop.

But this attitude cannot be revealed.

Otherwise, those people would think that he had given up and that his efforts were anticlimactic.

……

"Tan Hong from Xingmei has a cooperation with China Film Group, so he came to me and wanted to talk to you in person to clear up the misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding?" Lin Yicheng sneered, "He pirated my film and caused me such a huge loss. This is called a misunderstanding?"

"Uncle Han, there's also a share of China Film Group in this, you haven't forgotten it, have you?"

"Of course I haven't forgotten. You did suffer a loss this time, and he did go too far."

"That's why he wants to talk to you and see what your conditions are. It's better to resolve a feud than to create one."

"If the situation continues, no one will benefit, and the Chinese film industry will suffer. Xiaolin, what do you think?"

"Uncle Han, since you said so, I will give you face. I will not meet with Tan Hong. I only have two conditions. If he agrees, this matter will be forgotten, and we will not interfere with each other in the future. If he doesn't agree, hehe..."

"Well, you tell me, and I'll tell him."

……

After Mr. Han San left, Lin Yicheng sneered.

Tan Hong, what a great honor.

Even Mr. Han Sanye was invited.

He fights when he wants to, and makes peace when he wants to?

Then what has become of Lin Yicheng?

If I don’t let Tan Hong bleed a little this time, I’d be doing him a disservice!

……

Mr. Han Sanye left the China Film Studio, took out his cell phone and called Tan Hong.

"Hello, Mr. Han."

"As for Xiao Lin, I met with him and told him what he wanted to say. He proposed two conditions. Do you want to hear them?"

"Boss Han, please speak. I'm listening."

"First, he wants you to give him two cinemas in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, including the land and property."

"What?" Tan Hong raised his voice on the other end of the phone.

"This is a prerequisite. If you don't agree, there's no need to talk about the rest. He will fight you to the end."

“……”Tan Hong panted heavily and remained silent.

What do people in the circle think of Lin Yicheng?
This is a lunatic!
If he were just a lunatic, that would be fine, just beat him to death with a stick.

But this is still a madman with ability and background!
If this kind of person cannot be killed with one blow, who knows what he can do when he goes crazy?
Family members know their own business. Both brothers' butts are covered in shit!

This time, in the "anti-Lin" campaign, he offended Lin Yicheng the most and caused the greatest losses.

Lin Yicheng treated others like that, so what about him?

Thinking of this, Tan Hong felt a little regretful.

Why did I get so blinded by Li Dagou's lies that I let him drag me into this pirate ship?

……

Since he didn't hear anything from Tan Hong, Uncle Han thought he was reluctant to part with the two cinemas.

"You really went too far this time. There are still elements of China Film in "Crazy Nightclub". When you did this, did you consider China Film? Did you consider me?"

Han Sanye threatened, of course he was dissatisfied with Tan Hong. After all, China Film Group was also damaged this time.

If it weren't for the face of the senior behind his brother, Han Sanping would not have been a lobbyist.

Together with Lin Yicheng, they have already taken action to deal with Tan Hong!

"Okay, I agree. I will give him these two cinemas later and make him satisfied." Tan Hong gritted his teeth and said.

Not only did he fail to defeat Lin Yicheng, he also ceded land in exchange for peace.

This time he lost by one move, so he admitted defeat.

However, this matter is not over yet!

……

"The second thing is, you can't suppress his film schedule during the Lunar New Year period. If there is any piracy at that time, he will blame you."

"I have no problem with scheduling films, but I can't control piracy. If someone else pirates a film, why should I be blamed?"

"You have no right to tell me this. I am just conveying his conditions. If you disagree, then you can continue to fight. Show me all the means you have and bring out all the people you have. What do you think?"

"...Okay, I agree. When the time comes, I will arrange people to help him keep an eye on piracy." Tan Hong forced out these words while gritting his teeth.

"That's good. We are all in the same industry, and we can make money by getting along. Let's work together to make Chinese films bigger and better, and everyone can have enough to eat."

"Boss Han, you're right. Is there anything else? If not, I'll hang up first. I have something else to do."

"Don't worry, the problem between you and Xiaolin has been solved. How are you going to settle the account with China Film? We also suffered losses this time."

"Mr. Han, please tell me. I will definitely satisfy you." Veins bulged on Tan Hong's hand as he held the phone.

"I don't want much. How about you give China Film a cinema in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou or Shenzhen?"

"Okay, no problem. You can arrange for someone to pick it up then."

"Haha, I'm fine now, you can get busy too."

"Goodbye, Mr. Han." After saying this, Tan Hong threw the phone out with force.

Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Mr. Han smiled with satisfaction.

This time my work as a lobbyist was not in vain.

He borrowed Xiao Lin's influence to get benefits for China Film Group, and others still have to remember his favor.

……

end of June.

Galaxy Films.

Reception room.

Lin Yicheng pushed the door and walked in. The two people in the room stood up at the same time.

One is Lao Zhou, and the other is the famous Wang Jinghua.

Wang Jinghua had been left alone for more than half a month, and the other party had come to Xinghe Film and Television Company twice.

The heat is almost done.

So Lin Yicheng took the time to come and see her. "Hello, Mr. Lin, I'm Wang Jinghua." Wang Jinghua came up quickly and stretched out her hands.

"Sister Hua, I've heard of your name for a long time." Lin Yicheng shook hands with her.

"Mr. Lin, please don't call me that. Just call me by my name."

Although she is much older than Lin Yicheng, she doesn't dare to put on airs.

"Sit down, sit down and talk." Lin Yicheng greeted her.

After Wang Jinghua sat down, she couldn't help but glance at Lin Yicheng.

She was in a daze.

Back then, when Lin Yicheng first started to make his mark, she had thought about recruiting him to her company.

It’s just that the world is changing too fast, and Lin Yicheng is developing too fast.

Today, the identities and status of both parties are no longer comparable.

……

"Sister Hua, is there something you want to talk to me about this time?" Lin Yicheng asked knowingly.

"I came here this time to apologize to you. I was negligent before and didn't know you were a shareholder of Star Culture."

Lin Yicheng did not comment on this statement.

Just an excuse.

"I've caused you to misunderstand this time. Just tell me how you want me to compensate you." Wang Jinghua said again.

"Sister Hua is a straightforward person, so I'll just say it directly." Lin Yicheng didn't want to waste too much time with her, so he went straight to the point.

"I know about the conflict between you and Wu Kebo. So, I want you to quit Chengtian. What do you think, Sister Hua?"

"Mr. Lin, this... I..." Wang Jinghua was shocked. She had never expected Lin Yicheng to say this.

"Sister Hua, I'm not asking for your opinion, I'm making a request. You can do it or not, think about it yourself."

"Mr. Lin, I..." Wang Jinghua wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Lin Yicheng.

"After you exit, you can set up a company on your own, and I will choose to invest in it."

"Mr. Lin, you..."

"Three days. I only give you three days."

Lin Yicheng didn't give her a chance to speak at all, it was like an ultimatum.

There's no need to be polite to a veteran in this circle.

Because of his polite attitude, she felt that he was asking something of her.

A tough attitude is actually the most effective way.

"I have something else to do. If you agree, come over in three days to discuss the investment. If you don't agree, there's no need for us to meet."

After saying that, Lin Yicheng stood up and left.

Wang Jinghua was standing there, as if frozen in place, and had forgotten to get up.

What does it mean that there is no need to meet again?
For a moment, Wang Jinghua didn't dare to think further.

……

Lin Yicheng returned to the office and called Liu Mingjun in.

After a while, Lao Zhou also came in.

"Boss, she's gone."

Lin Yicheng nodded and looked at Liu Mingjun.

"How's the progress at the TV station?"

"For the two dramas "The Hidden" and "The Unforgettable Number", Beijing Satellite TV, Tomato Satellite TV and Blueberry Satellite TV plan to continue to cooperate and win these two films."

"I have also stopped negotiations with other TV stations as you said. Now, they are all very anxious to participate in the second and third rounds of competition."

At this point, Liu Mingjun couldn't help laughing.

The tone of those TV station executives at that time was extremely earnest, and it was totally different from the attitude that Party A should have.

You know, it's a buyer's market nowadays, and TV stations occupy an absolute dominant position.

Most film and television companies have to carefully beg TV stations to buy their TV series.

How could he have had such an experience when he was at Huace?

No matter whether he was just taking advantage of the power of another, Liu Mingjun just felt that he was too proud.

"Okay, I get it. Since they have this attitude, let's not push it any further. Show some goodwill and let them get involved."

"However, the old rules still apply: payment first, then the show. No installment payments are accepted."

"Okay, Mr. Lin."

"Over at Crazy Nightclub, Lao Zhou, keep an eye on it. I don't want to see anything else happen."

"Don't worry, boss. We have people stationed in those theaters. There will definitely be no more problems."

"Okay, go get busy."

After Zhou Chenggong and Liu Mingjun left.

Lin Yicheng began to think.

……

At this point, the storm is over.

Although Lin Yicheng felt that there were still some unsatisfactory aspects, such as Ying Huang and Hai Run, these two families were not affected much.

But we can only do this much. If we do anything else, our peers and superiors will all have opinions.

Know when to stop and quit while you are ahead.

Lin Yicheng tapped the table.

In terms of movies, Galaxy Film and Television Company has no obvious shortcomings.

Production, distribution, and theaters, everything is available.

On the contrary, there are still some flaws in the TV series.

This time several TV stations caused trouble, but the problem was solved.

But the problems exposed are not small.

Don’t underestimate the fact that Galaxy Film and Television Company has a good relationship with Mango TV, Beijing TV, Tomato TV, Blueberry TV and others.

But if they are not our own, they will never be reliable.

If these companies unite and put pressure on Galaxy Film and Television Company, they will be too passive at that time.

This possibility is not impossible.

Domestic conditions do not allow Lin Yicheng to acquire and own a television station.

Then he had only one choice.

Lin Yicheng took out a file bag from the drawer. It contained relevant information about some video websites collected by the investigation team he hired specially.

All information about PPTV, 56, Ku6, Liujianfang, and even Qvod.

Lin Yicheng read it carefully from beginning to end, and calculated the funds he had on hand, as well as possible sources and channels of funds.

Next year, the time will be almost ripe and he can enter the market.

……

After putting the information back into the file bag, Lin Yicheng took out his mobile phone and called Zhang Hongsen.

Compared with Tong Gang, his relationship with Zhang Hongsen is a little closer.

We are all screenwriters and writers, with similar identities. This is one aspect.

The key is to build a good relationship with the future head of the Film Bureau and make personal investments in advance.

"Hey, Director Mori... Yes, I know. I won't make trouble again... Well, thank you Director Mori for your understanding. It is a blessing for us filmmakers to have a leader like you..."

"Director Mori, are you free now? This is what I mean. I have a notebook and I'm having some trouble with it. I'm a little lacking in ability, so I'd like you to give me some pointers. Do you think it's convenient?"

"Okay, I'll be right there...Okay, see you later."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yicheng turned on the computer and retrieved a file from a folder. It was a children's script.

Lin Yicheng used a printer to print it out.

The last time he was stuck on the script of "How a Bad Movie Was Made", he learned his lesson.

When it comes to the script, you must be extremely careful and have it reviewed by your leader first to make sure there are no mistakes.

If there is a problem, there is enough time to deal with it.

Next year is 2008. By then, the international situation, especially in Southeast Asia...

Keep up with the general trend and keep up with the policies; this is what Lin Yicheng has been reminding himself all the time.

Then, it’s time to prepare for my film project next year.

In addition, Lin Yicheng knew one more thing.

Zhang Hongsen has a daughter.

He doted on his daughter very much, and the relationship between father and daughter was very harmonious.

So, it was reasonable and logical for him to ask Zhang Hongsen for advice on his script.

This is called following one's own preferences.

The office window was open, and a breeze blew in, blowing open the title page of the script.

There are four big characters written on it:

"Taken"
