72 Chapter 72
◎Regret◎
Pei Yuanzhi and Liu Shuyi had given up on Tianqi Media long ago. Chen Zhensheng and others begged for help from everyone. Originally, a kind-hearted boss among them called back and told him the only way out. As a result, he found out that he and his men had cut off the way out just a moment ago.
Only after they offended Zhang Li did they know what it meant to be miserable.
Although Tianqi Media was soft-banned by the domestic entertainment industry, its foundation is still there, and shareholders like them can sell it for a price.
But under Zhang Li's instruction, Wan Cheng directly banned anyone who wanted to take over Tianqi, which was against Wan Cheng.
A year ago, who knew what Wancheng was? But now, facing Wancheng's tens of billions of dollars in business, no one dared to compete with it.
Chen Zhensheng and others could only watch their hard work go to waste.
Pei Yuanzhi and Liu Shuyi, who had originally urged them to leave Lingman, have disappeared, and the benefits they had promised them before could not even cover the cost.
As a result, Tianqi finally went bankrupt.
All the years of investment have gone to waste, and because they have offended Lingman and Wancheng, they will certainly have a hard time moving forward in other areas.
But there are people who keep an eye on their movements and come out to stab them at the critical moment.
【Xuan Ran Says Things v: It is reported that Tianqi Media has recently declared bankruptcy and entered the liquidation stage.
People who are familiar with the domestic entertainment industry should know that it took only one year for Tianqi to go from its establishment to bankruptcy.
Next, the blogger will take everyone to review how Tianqi killed himself step by step...
Xuan Ran started the story from when Zhang Li entered Lingman, describing the whole process in a dramatic way. The people under this Weibo account were indeed well-informed, and even the incident where Chen Zhensheng and others went to ask Yu Feiyu for help, and then had a conflict with Zhang Li at the front desk, was not missed.
He also specifically pointed out, "If following Pei Yuanzhi and Liu Shuyi to establish Tianqi was the turning point in the fate of shareholders like Chen Zhensheng, then offending Zhang Li was the last straw they had to break..."
The blogger finally stated that he would shift his focus to Wancheng’s investments and the businesses of the Liu and Pei families.
Obviously, although he did not say it explicitly, he still felt that the feud between the Wancheng and Liu Pei families had not been resolved and it was very likely that it would resurface in the future.
As soon as this Weibo post was released, the term #Apocalypse Media Bankruptcy# quickly became a hot search.
Netizens who had been paying attention also started to watch the fun.
[Tsk tsk tsk… Adding the investments that were added later, it’s probably close to 1 billion. They went bankrupt without warning. What a waste!]
When Tianqi was first established, it was so prosperous. They poached Lingman’s people and hijacked Lingman’s resources. They certainly didn’t expect this day to come.
[It's true that fortunes change, Wancheng and Lingman are completely using their own methods to return the favor.]
I have to say, Wancheng is truly amazing. I heard from someone in the industry that all of this is controlled by the investors behind Wancheng. They've grown Wancheng to this size in just one year. It's truly terrifying...
More netizens and fans flocked in, focusing on other places.
[When the little queen Li Ruoxi left, I knew that Tianqi would not have a good ending.]
[Or are those two young masters responsible for causing trouble? If those people from Tianqi hadn't left Lingman and taken advantage of Wancheng's success, how prosperous would they be now?]
That's a very narrow-minded statement, alright? Don't Chen Zhensheng and the others have any problems themselves? They've caused all this trouble by being greedy and forgetting their principles. They tried to climb up the ranks of Liu and Pei, and now they deserve this fate.
Pei and Liu could just walk away, but I wonder what their families think.
[What?! Tianqi went bankrupt? What about us, Xixi and Qianyu?! ...]
The latter twist in the title immediately attracted a lot of attention to the stars under Tianqi.
The fans of these stars also reacted and started to pay attention to their idols again. Then they found that except for a few artists who found new homes, no one was buying the other stars.
Especially those artists headed by An Xi, Bai Qianyu, Su Yi, Zhao Peng and Zhou Min, who were previously poached from Lingman by Tianqi. Everyone knew that they had offended Lingman.
To offend Lingman is to offend the Past Studio. Given the current value of Past Studio, which entertainment company would take them in?
So, these artists became miserable.
Without a successor, their only options are to quit or change careers, apart from continuing to work in the industry as individuals.
-
After going to Lingman, Chen Zhensheng's words made artists like An Xi realize that something was wrong.
When the company announced its impending bankruptcy, they still felt as if the sky was falling.
They originally jumped over from Lingman, thinking that they could go to the next level, but they failed to reach the next level and instead fell directly into the ground.
Is there anything more devastating than this?
Especially Su Yi, who was showing off to Yu Feiyu and Zhang Li in order to curry favor with Chen Zhensheng.
As arrogant as he was then, he is as embarrassed now.
In fact, he started to feel nervous when Lingman released an album for Chen Xiaodong.
Now thinking back to when Zhang Li had asked him, "How do you know if you're heading for a high place or a low place?", and his reply, "If Tianqi isn't considered a high place, then how could Lingman be considered one?", Su Yi felt extremely regretful.
If he had remembered the company's kindness and stayed at the critical moment, he would probably be another Chen Xiaodong now!
Unfortunately, it’s too late to regret now!
They may completely lose the chance to turn things around in the future.
-
After Pei Yuanzhi and Liu Shuyi left Tianqi behind, they handed over the entire matter to Chen Zhensheng.
Neither of them even attended the bankruptcy procedures in person.
But when the final results came out and they received the notification, they couldn't help but feel dazed for a moment.
Liu Shuyi didn't participate too much, so he quickly put it behind him.
Only Pei Yuanzhi was busy every day fighting for the inheritance of the group and for the revenue of the company assigned to him by Mr. Pei. When he learned that Tianqi had gone bankrupt, he sat in the office for a whole night.
The next day, life continued as usual, but many things seemed to have changed.
-
When Yu Feiyu and other Lingman shareholders learned about Tianqi's bankruptcy, they all applauded.
The only one who was not disturbed was probably Zhang Li.
While the outside world was wildly discussing Tianqi's bankruptcy, she had already started a new filming journey.
The previous "Moving Forward" was a workplace drama, and this one returns to a costume drama.
It is also a costume drama about cultivating immortals.
The director of this drama was someone Zhang Li met at the Baiwen Awards ceremony. He is from Zheng Wanying's circle.
After hearing Zheng Wanying praising Zhang Li to the skies during their conversation and watching some sample footage of Zhang Li's martial arts scenes from Chen Lin, the director named Shang Hao began to bombard Zhang Li and Cheng Yu with information like crazy. After half a month, he finally signed this favorite actor to the crew of his drama that was going to start filming this year.
However, what Shang Hao did not expect was that when other young actresses were all concerned about their status and refused to play roles other than the protagonist or positive ones, Zhang Li chose the villain in his drama.
Now he finally understood what Zheng Wanying meant - 'Zhang Li doesn't like to play the kind of role that follows the rules.'
The most unconventional character in his drama is the villain. He is also the one who almost kills the protagonists.
Compared to the protagonists who are the chosen ones of heaven, the villains are beautiful, strong and miserable in the popular sense.
She has a miserable life experience. She has been helpless and bullied since childhood. She initially tried to get the protection of the heroine, but the hero saw that she had impure intentions and kicked her out of the team.
After being kicked out of the team, she fell into the hands of the villain Demon Lord in the early and middle stages, and almost became the opponent's cauldron, and had her power sucked away and died. Fortunately, she managed to escape danger with her wisdom and became a member of the Demon Lord's subordinates.
Countless tragic experiences also made the only trace of weakness and kindness in her heart disappear.
She began to act cautiously, not only relying on the power of the Demon Lord to create countless deadly dangers for the protagonists, but also gradually gaining the Demon Lord's trust, secretly planning to kill all of the Demon Lord's subordinates who disliked her.
As her strength grew, her ambition also grew rapidly. Just when the Demon Lord began to develop feelings for her, she took advantage of the situation to find the Demon Lord's only weakness and eventually turned the Demon Lord into a puppet.
After truly controlling the entire demon world, she schemed against the protagonists in various ways. Not only did she kill all of the heroine's friends, but she also almost made the hero fall into her trap.
It’s a pity that in this kind of immortal cultivation drama, the male and female protagonists always have special golden fingers, and they can always turn defeat into victory at the last moment.
In the end, the villain was found out by the hero and heroine, who used up all their strength to kill him. The hero and heroine also had an epiphany, comprehended the secrets of heaven, and ascended to become immortals.
It can be said that this character has similarities and differences with Concubine Li in "The Legend of Li Wan".
After Zhang Li chose her, Shang Hao felt a lot more relaxed, because in the whole drama, this role was the most challenging for acting skills. As for the main characters, "truth, goodness and beauty" were enough.
However, as a great director, Shang Hao selected actors with both fame and acting skills as the leading actors.
But after the filming started, these actors once again became the background for Zhang Li to show off his skills.
Her acting is always full of details, from enduring humiliation when being bullied in the early stage, to meeting the protagonists and seeing them as an opportunity to change her fate, to being unwilling to be abandoned, and then gradually becoming evil later on.
The other actors were so frightened by her performance that even though they were on the side of justice in the play, they couldn't muster any momentum when facing Zhang Li.
Fortunately, Zhang Li's guiding acting skills always allow them to use their potential to respond.
But because of this, they realized that Zhang Li's acting skills were far superior to everyone else's.
The entire crew was once again impressed by her acting skills.
