In TVB's office building, Wu Changyun opened a door and walked in. The person waiting inside was the newly appointed head of Channel 3, Liang Yudong.
"Boss Wu is here? Thank you for your hard work. Let me pour you a glass of water first."
"polite."
When Wu Changyun walked in, given his current status, he should be more polite to a channel manager like Liang Yudong.
As I said, no matter which industry, relationships determine one's status.
Although Wu Changyun is not a member of TVB, the project he had discussed with Wang Tianlin before, which was about appearing on a TV program, now fell on Liang Yudong's shoulders.
Wu Changyun took a look and saw that Wang Tianlin was also present.
"Congratulations, you got promoted?"
"No thanks, thanks to you."
Wang Tianlin was still very polite in his words. He was most proud of Wang Jing. But now Wang Jing didn't know what kind of magic drug he had taken. He was unwilling to go back to TVB with him and insisted on staying in Qi Ji to work for Wu Changyun. This made Wang Tianlin very puzzled.
This even led to some rifts between him and Wu Changyun.
This is not surprising. Qi Ji Film Company is currently recognized as the number one in the industry, but for Wang Tianlin, who is a big shot in TVB, it is really an empty title.
Wang Tianlin’s vision is different from his son’s. From the perspective of historical development, TV stations are permanent, while film companies are transient.
Every era has a company that represents the box office, but as times change, those leading companies will go bankrupt and close down, but TVB is not just a company in the film and television industry.
TVB is funded by six leading industries and was also publicly tendered by the government. It can be said to be a truly solid company.
This is like the difference between civil servants and entrepreneurial companies. At Wang Tianlin's age, he naturally sees this simplest truth more clearly than anyone else.
Now that he is still in power, as long as his son returns to TVB, he can train Wang Jing to become the next Wang Tianlin.
The reason why Wu Changyun kept Wang Jing in Qi Ji Film Company was to make money for him. Wang Tianlin could not accept that his own son had to be a stepping stone for others.
"Boss Wu, I don't know what to call you right now. After all, your resume is very rich and impressive."
"No need to be polite."
Wu Changyun waved his hand. He had originally thought that perhaps he could bypass Wang Tianlin today, which would make things much easier. But it seemed that the other party was keeping a close eye on him.
"How is it? Can our show still be on?"
"Yes, I can definitely go."
Liang Yudong said quickly.
At this time, Wang Tianlin made an excuse: "I don't feel well today, you guys talk."
"Wait, Mr. Wang, please sit down for a moment."
This gave Liang Yudong a headache. Logically, he was the one who could make the final decision on this matter, but after taking on this project, all the funding applications and personnel dispatch had to rely on Wang Tianlin's approval.
One is his superior, and the other is his most powerful client.
It would have been a happy occasion for everyone if they had just worked together, but now it has become so awkward.
"Mr. Wang, please don't worry. This matter requires your presence. How can I make the decision?"
"You're the new person in charge. Although you're not very experienced, you've lacked the opportunity to interact with a big shot like Boss Wu, and you don't know much about film and television. This is indeed a bit daunting."
"Yes, it is."
Liang Yudong nodded in agreement, but in his heart he was cursing this old fox, who said in words and deeds that he was not capable, and then turned around and tried to take the credit for himself.
"Boss Wu, what new movie are you planning to release recently? I watch all your movies every year."
"It's still the same lately, basically a few dramas a year, still the same old routine."
"Haha, Boss Wang, you're joking. Everyone knows that the actors under you are just supporting actors. You, as the boss, are a genius with both literary and martial arts skills. I believe the old tricks when they come from others, but I don't believe them when they come from you."
Wang Tianlin said this half-jokingly, and at least 70% of his words were complaints about Wu Changyun's behavior, which was really unethical.
"Don't you care who I plan to use for this drama this time?"
"I don't care. That's your family's business."
Wang Tianlin's heart, which had been airtight, suddenly skipped a beat when he heard this. Could it be...
"Wang Jing is a pillar of the company, and he knows TVB better than any of us, so I plan to use him to direct this drama."
Wu Changyun's words undoubtedly woke Wang Tianlin up.
It turned out that he was planning to use my son to please me. Wang Tianlin chuckled, but this was indeed a good deal that was hard to refuse. Wang Tianlin's original intention was to let his son return to TVB to develop.
Now is a good opportunity to take advantage of this topic.
However, Wang Tianlin still didn't believe that Wu Changyun would be so kind.
"Old man, you won't give in?" Wu Changyun felt helpless. He just wanted to get in first and then find a way to get Zhou Xingchi out. He was a little worried about leaving this matter to others.
"And I'm going to play a role this time."
"What? You're planning on going into battle?"
"That's great, Boss Wu. With your strong support, this drama is sure to be a huge hit."
When Liang Yudong heard this, he immediately became excited. Although Wu Changyun had made few movies, he had always been very popular among the audience, especially in last year's TVB's most popular guest list. Wu Changyun, who only appeared once, had the highest popularity.
The reason is very simple. On the one hand, this guy is handsome enough and speaks in a humorous way. He is not like those actors or directors who speak in a vague and ambiguous way. The last time I interviewed Wu Changyun, he said that this guy was a genuine hard-working man who started from scratch.
"Are you really willing to act in this play?"
Wang Tianlin asked again, Wang Jing is the director and Wu Changyun is the actor, this is simply a signal that Wu Changyun wants to promote his son.
This kind of thing often happens in the film and television industry: a respected senior will have a fight scene with a newcomer, and they will be opposite each other.
Once this situation occurs, everyone basically understands it.
This must be because a certain young and handsome man has become the favorite of a certain big director. This is a kind of linkage.
"Of course I do. Why not? I haven't been in a movie in a long time."
"Okay, okay, I think this is a good idea."
Wang Tianlin suddenly praised, and Liang Yudong breathed a sigh of relief. This good deal that came to his doorstep was finally finalized. As long as Wang Tianlin agreed, everything would be fine.
But he didn't expect that this was a deal that was almost reached at the expense of Wu Changyun. Even if Liang Yudong was stupid, he could understand that there must be some inside stories that others were not aware of.
"Then let's discuss the specific matters."
"Okay, I brought the script."
The script that Wu Changyun brought this time is The Peerless Hero.
