Chapter 182



As the Golden Monday of October 1st passed, the box office of "A Sheng" continued to rise, and it was far ahead of all its competitors.

In contrast, the previously highly publicized "The Dusk" gradually became quiet. Except for being mocked occasionally, it no longer had any popularity.

Fu Cheng sat in the house. He had not left the house for the past few days. He was like a possessed man, browsing the news of "The Dusk" on the Internet. The more he browsed, the angrier he became, but he couldn't help it. He hadn't had this mentality for many years. As a new actor who had always been favored by others, he had never been scolded so badly.

Since the release of "The Dark Knight", Fu Cheng has never had a good sleep. His eyes are full of bloodshot, and blue stubble has appeared on his lips. He looks very haggard, not as bright and beautiful as he used to be in front of the public.

Fu Cheng tightly grasped the mouse and scrolled down the ratings as if to torture himself.

[I watched "The Dark Knight" for Fu Cheng. I can only say that the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment...]

[Was Fu Cheng deceived? How could he accept such a movie? ? 】

【I heard that Fu Cheng also participated in the investment of this play. Tsk, after so many years of acting, is his vision still so bad?】

【Let’s not talk about vision. Fu Cheng’s acting in it is also very bad. He was sleepwalking throughout the whole process. It feels like a different person】

【With Fu Cheng like this, which director would dare to hire him in the future? ? 】

Fu Cheng gritted his teeth, swung the mouse aside, and then stood up and walked around the room anxiously.

Suddenly, his mobile phone rang. Fu Cheng looked carefully and found that it was his agent, so he quickly answered it.

The agent's tone was a little hesitant, and Fu Cheng had a bad feeling in his heart, so he asked, "What's the matter? Just say it."

The agent sighed and said, "The play we were discussing with Director Xun fell apart..."

Fu Cheng's breath was choked, and then he pretended to be indifferent and replied, "It's collapsed, so what? Anyway, I didn't think much of this play."

The agent hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Except for Director Xun, the other parties are not that interested in the endorsements we are discussing . Why are you so enthusiastic? I’m afraid...”

Fu Cheng paused and gritted his teeth and said, “Tell me all the bad news you have.”

The agent could only continue, “Before, the industry was not very optimistic about "The Dusk Killer", so in order to increase the screening of "The Dusk Killer", the Second Young Master found the managers of those big theaters and bribed them to get such a high screening schedule, but who could have thought that it would run into the hands of the newly appointed president of the Film Association...”

“Now the Film Bureau is strictly investigating the chaos in screening schedules. Not to mention the Second Young Master, even President Sheng himself can’t stop it. The news I just received... I’m afraid that the Second Young Master has been fired by the board of directors..."

Fu Cheng’s legs softened and he fell directly on the sofa, with an expression that looked like crying and laughing on his face.

His backer was Shengzhen, and now Shengzhen has collapsed. He had offended Guo Wenyuan before, and had just encountered a career setback. He also invested most of his fortune in "Dusk Murder". In the future...

Fu Cheng suddenly remembered what Yi Xin Taoist said before.

"You have to pay for what you have done. If you don't repay some favors, your whole life will be full of karma..."

His face suddenly turned ugly. Even though he kept telling himself in his heart that these were all lies, his face already showed regret.

-

Guanrui Group Board of Directors.

Chairman Sheng looked at the bewildered Sheng Zhen with a sullen face: "You bastard! I told you before that you should be careful during this period, but you still dared to commit a crime against the wind. You are so bold!!"

Sheng Zhen raised his head quickly and said in panic: "Dad, no, I... I didn't, I... I was framed!"

His eyes fell on Sheng Qi, who was sitting aside and had nothing to do with it. The jealousy immediately overwhelmed his head, and he said in a shrill voice: "It's him! It was Sheng Qi who framed me!!"

Sheng Qi raised his eyebrows and ignored him.

Chairman Sheng became even more angry and hit him on the back with his crutch: "It's fine if you did something wrong! You even want to slander your brother!!"

Sheng Zhen felt pain, but seeing how excited Chairman Sheng was, he didn't dare to provoke him anymore. He could only argue in vain: "I... I just want to share your worries with Dad! I know you have been worried about the Tancheng Film and Television City project. I just want to use "Dusk Murderer" to revitalize this project. I didn't expect..."

However, Chairman Sheng was not moved as he imagined. He just said coldly: "Don't try to do porcelain work if you don't have diamonds. Failure is failure. No matter what excuses you find, it's useless."

Sheng Zhen looked at Chairman Sheng in disbelief. He couldn't believe that these were the words of his father who had always doted on him.

Sheng Qisi was not surprised at all. He knew his father much better than his younger brother. After

Mr. Sheng finished speaking, he seemed a little tired. He sat on the chair and said lightly: "You don't have to come to the company anymore. Go abroad to study for a few years, and then live a peaceful life with your dividends." Sheng Zhen was

struck by lightning and wanted to argue a few words, but the directors present had already begun to praise Mr. Sheng for distinguishing between public and private affairs and sacrificing his relatives for the sake of justice.

Sheng Zhen stared blankly at everything in front of him. He didn't react until he was persuaded to leave the meeting room by his father's secretary.

He never thought that he would be struck out before he had a formal confrontation with Sheng Qi.

At this time, in the conference room, Sheng Qi finally stood up from his chair and walked slowly to Mr. Sheng: "Dad, let's continue the meeting."

Mr. Sheng looked at his eldest son with a complicated look in his eyes.

But Sheng Qi seemed not to notice and just kept bowing respectfully.

In fact, he never took Sheng Zhen seriously. In his eyes, Sheng Zhen was just a puppet pushed out by the old and frail Lion King. He looked fierce, but in fact he was just a hyena with no ability.

From the beginning to the end, it was just a war between the old Lion King who was worried about losing power and the young and ambitious New Lion King.

Director Sheng looked at his eldest son for a long time before he sighed softly: "Ah Qi, you are cautious and prudent. The company's affairs will depend on you in the future."

Sheng Qi seemed not to hear the reluctance in his words, and smiled and said: "Don't worry, Dad."

——Shen

Huai was also stunned when he received Guo Wenyuan's call. He didn't expect that the opportunity to cooperate with Sheng Qi would come so quickly.

The two met at Sheng Qi's office.

Shen Huai was calm. He knew very well that the most important thing for Guanrui at the moment was to eliminate the negative impact of "The Dusk Murderer". At the same time, he also had to solve the financial burden of Tancheng Film and Television City.

In terms of urgency, Sheng Qi was more anxious than him. He just needed to see what kind of medicine was sold in Sheng Qi's jar.

But he didn't expect that after the two of them exchanged a few words, Sheng Qi went straight to the point: "I have said before that I hope to cooperate with Mr. Shen. This is not an excuse. I hope to develop Tancheng Film and Television City with Mr. Shen." Sheng Qi

said, and directly put a plan in front of Shen Huai.

Shen Huai took it and was more surprised the more he read it, because this plan almost handed over most of the initiative of development to Yixing, and Guanrui retreated to the second line and became a profit-seeker.

Shen Huai almost suspected that Lao Guo had tricked Sheng Qi.

Sheng Qi seemed to see Shen Huai's doubts, and said with a smile: "Mr. Shen, don't doubt it. I am definitely not teasing you. I am very sincere about this plan."

Shen Huai closed the plan and gestured: "Mr. Sheng, please speak, I'm all ears."

Sheng Qi smiled and said: "I know that Mr. Shen has always wanted to build a full film industry chain and promote the industrial development of China's film industry. This coincides with my idea. Although I am a businessman, I am also a businessman who grew up watching movies since I was a child." "

I have seen Mr. Shen's journey. Whether it is your contribution to Chinese films or your amazing vision, I admire you very much. It's just like when you were in the investment industry, you have never failed. I believe that you will not let me down on this project."

Shen Huai: "..."

If Sheng Qi said something weird at this time, he might explode.

Under this misunderstanding, the two happily reached a preliminary cooperation intention.

And just after the two sides announced the cooperation plan to the outside world, the Film Association sent new news.

Just now, the Kim Young-sang Awards announced the list of film nominees.

"Red Actress" and "Ah Sheng" were both nominated for the best film.
