hotel room.
Jing Tian had already taken a shower and was wearing a pink cartoon pajama set, applying a face mask.
Seeing Gu Qingshan enter, she couldn't help but ask, "Was Wang Jinghua waiting specifically for you?"
"Huh? You noticed?" Gu Qingshan was somewhat surprised.
Wang Jinghua's actions were so obvious that even Jing Tian noticed them?
Having spent the past few months with Jing Tian, Gu Qingshan was quite certain that this seemingly perfect woman was only so-so in terms of intelligence and emotional intelligence.
Otherwise, Jing Tian wouldn't have only scored 200 points on the college entrance exam.
It should be noted that the general academic performance requirements for the Taipei Film Academy's Performing Arts Department are between 270 and 400 points on the college entrance exam. She managed to lower her score by a full 70 points.
Jing Tian rolled his eyes at Gu Qingshan: "Nonsense, look, it's even in the news."
Gu Qingshan glanced at Jing Tian's laptop and saw that it contained a news article from a Shanghai entertainment weekly, which included several photos and a large amount of text.
The central image in the photo is Gu Qingshan and Wang Jinghua shaking hands.
The press release, exceeding a thousand words, analyzed the possibility of Gu Qingshan joining Orange Sky from multiple perspectives, confidently stating that the two had reached a cooperation agreement.
In addition to Shanghai Entertainment Weekly, more than ten other media outlets followed up with reports.
This news, even late at night, attracted a lot of attention.
The core of the news reports was to solemnly describe how the two had a pleasant conversation and that Gu Qingshan was about to join Orange Sky.
"Are you really planning to join Orange Sky?" Jing Tian asked curiously.
Gu Qingshan said, "How could that be? What's so attractive about Orange Sky to me?"
"Why would I give up being a perfectly good boss to become an employee at Orange Sky?" Gu Qingshan scoffed.
Gu Qingshan has already received his share of the box office revenue from "Nightclub," amounting to a full 1694.6 million yuan.
What belongs to him is 847.3 million.
With the added profits from "Love is Not Blind," he can be considered a multi-millionaire.
After restarting his life, he always remembered one principle: working is impossible, he would rather die than work.
There's no other reason than that you can never get rich by working for someone else.
Jing Tian's big eyes sparkled. "Orange Sky has deep pockets. If you go to Orange Sky, it'll be like Feng Xiaogang with Huayi Brothers—you should get some shares. Aren't you tempted?"
"What's so exciting?" Gu Qingshan took off his clothes, preparing to take a shower. "What are shares? It's better to run your own company well and make good movies."
Gu Qingshan took a shower and then comfortably fell asleep holding the beauty.
......
Gu Qingshan slept comfortably, but he suffered from insomnia for several nights.
Tonight, Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei are hosting a banquet for Chen Guofu, accompanied by female celebrities.
They are discussing the overseas distribution of "Assembly".
Chen Kuo-fu originally served as the Director of Production for Asia at Columbia Pictures, responsible for the production and development of Chinese-language films. After 2006, he became the Executive Producer at Huayi Brothers Films, a powerful combination of talent.
The huge success of "Assembly" allowed Huayi Brothers to completely emerge from the quagmire caused by Wang Jinghua's departure, and Wang Zhongjun was in high spirits.
Just then, the secretary whispered a report in Wang Zhongjun's ear, and Wang Zhongjun's face immediately turned ugly.
"Mr. Wang, what's wrong?" Chen Guofu noticed the change in Wang Zhongjun's expression.
Wang Zhongjun's face was gloomy. "Wang Jinghua just went to see Gu Qingshan, and the two talked for more than half an hour."
The person Wang Zhongjun hated most was none other than Wang Jinghua.
When Wang Jinghua left Huayi, she didn't leave alone; she took dozens of celebrities with her. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she took away most of the stars in the entertainment industry. Almost all the stars in Huayi were taken away, and the artist management business suffered a devastating blow.
At that time, Huayi was in dire straits. In order to stabilize the situation, Wang Zhongjun agreed to many excessive demands from Feng Xiaogang.
Now that Wang Jinghua is going to see Gu Qingshan, Wang Zhongjun knows without a doubt that she is trying to win Gu Qingshan over.
Orange Sky Entertainment is a formidable foe.
They have capital and star resources, but their only weakness is the lack of directors and experience in filmmaking.
Once Gu Qingshan joins Orange Sky, the threat to Huayi will increase dramatically.
"That bitch, I should have had someone kill her!" Wang Zhonglei downed his drink in one gulp, his face contorted with rage.
Chen Guofu smiled and said, "President Wang, Mr. Wang, don't worry. We tried to win over Gu Qingshan, but he refused. How could he possibly join Orange Sky?"
"That person founded Qingshan Film and Television, and now he's making money and doesn't lack funds for making movies. He's ambitious and probably won't join any film and television company."
"At present, it is undoubtedly wishful thinking for Wang Jinghua to try to win over Gu Qingshan." Chen Guofu simply did not believe such news.
Wang Zhongjun frowned. "What if Gu Qingshan really joins Orange Sky?"
"There's nothing we can do about it!" Chen Guofu shrugged. "He's a famous director now, a hot commodity. Everyone wants to win him over, and he's not short of money. In Hong Kong and Taiwan, we could use some tricks, but not here."
Here, everyone has to follow the rules.
......
Li Ming frowned when he saw the news.
As the helmsman of Pegasus Media, Li Ming decided to venture into film and television production in 2002. He has been committed to film and television investment, planning and production. His TV series include "The Sky of History", "Closer to You, Warmer to Me", "Sweet Honey", "The Era We Live In", "Glorious Years" and "The Scalpel", and his films include "D-Cracking Police" and "Left Right".
He has made the decision that Galloping Horse will focus its long-term development strategy on the film industry.
The only thing missing for Xiaoma Benteng is a famous director.
Therefore, after Gu Qingshan's film "Night Shop" became a box office hit, Li Ming deliberately befriended Gu Qingshan, hoping to recruit him into Xiaoma Benteng. He said that as long as Gu Qingshan was willing to join Xiaoma Benteng, the terms were negotiable.
"If Gu Qingshan joins Orange Sky, that would be terrible!" Li Ming muttered to himself.
Orange Sky is incredibly powerful and has immense capital!
Once Gu Qingshan joins Orange Sky, Orange Sky will be even more powerful.
That night, every big shot in the industry suffered from insomnia.
Everyone has experienced how powerful Huayi was before.
In the past two years, everyone's life has become much better, because Huayi suffered a severe blow, which gave everyone room to develop.
Once Gu Qingshan joins Orange Sky, Orange Sky will immediately become another peak for Huayi.
Gu Qingshan is far inferior to Feng Xiaogang now, but the problem is that Feng Xiaogang makes a movie every two years, while Gu Qingshan can make several movies a year.
Besides, Gu Qingshan is still young. Who knows if he will become a great director like Feng Xiaogang in a few years?
Even though everyone knows that these few photos alone cannot prove that Gu Qingshan will join Orange Sky.
But what if!?
It's never too bad to be safe than sorry!
Orange Sky Entertainment is truly a perfect match with its wealth and star power, complementing Gu Qingshan perfectly. In a sense, the two are a match made in heaven.
This is something that people can't help but worry about.
The film market is only so big, and everyone wants to make a profit. If others get a bigger piece of meat, you get a smaller piece.
