658 Control

to put it simply, Mr. Luo can still get a share of every cent Tao cen earns, and he gets quite a lot. Tao cen is just working for Mr. Luo in another form.

Xia Chaoqun knocked on the table.

on a larger scale, Mr. Luo’s shares are enough for him to interfere with Tao cen’s decisions and the company’s direction. When you and Tao cen compete for resources, he has the absolute advantage to suppress Tao cen and secure your position as the top female star in China!

!!
Tao cen’s company was small. The most important thing was still century Galaxy. This was Luo Yin’s Foundation. He made a big move that day. Tao cen thought that she was out of the game and was an outsider, but he did not know that she was still in the game. She was just in a different direction and was still controlled by the person playing the game.

In the eyes of businessmen, feelings were allowed, but they had to come after benefits.

Luo Yin was like a ginger. He was old but spicier. He had already calculated every step of Tao cen’s plan. However, he did not know if Tao cen had reacted by now. Perhaps she had always known about these things. Her departure, including Luo Yin’s investment, was most likely a request to terminate the contract in advance.

But no matter what, when she was in century Galaxy, due to their many years of friendship, Luo Yin could not say much. Her position in the company was special, and the team that sided with her had already affected a certain part of the company’s decision making.

Now that he had left, many things were much easier to do.

Mo Anqi’s jaw dropped as she listened to Xia Chaoqun’s words. It took her a long time to come back to her senses. She finally understood why Xia Chaoqun was the first to know about Tao cen’s movements.

The sky was high and the sea was wide. Tao cen thought that she had grown wings and flown away, but in reality, she was still in Luo Yin’s control.

Mo Anqi shuddered. It was only now that she truly realized how terrifying capital was. The schemes and methods of the big bosses in the business world were not something that Tao cen could touch.

Mr. Luo, you know very well that celebrities live in a colorful world. Applause and flowers can easily make them lose themselves and forget how much they originally were.

Especially for a female star like Tao cen, who did not lack fame, works, popularity, and exposure, it was only a matter of time before she left after her contract expired.

However, the company had spent so much money and resources on that day to train an unknown girl to become one of the top a-listers in China today. The effort they had put in was also uncountable. How could Luo Yin be willing to let her go if he didn’t make full use of her value?

It was fine if mo Anqi had never thought about these questions before, but now that Xia Chaoqun had pointed them out, she felt her whole body go numb.

She recalled Jiang SE’s choice that was completely different from Tao cen’s. Back then, she had signed a contract with century Galaxy because of her close relationship with Chang Yuhu. She was willing to lower her share of the profits and limit the contract to a short time.

In the few years that he had been in the industry, he had not been greedy for more resources and preferred quality over quantity. He had built up his reputation.

He was also extremely lucky to grasp the key female lead selection in “God’s salvation,” and his status rose again and again. Finally, he had the confidence and qualifications to negotiate with Luo Yin.

In her competitive relationship with Tao cen, she fought steadily. Even when the company suppressed her and asked her to play a supporting role in Tao cen’s movie, ” suspect, ” when the two were at the fiercest, she swallowed her anger and agreed. When her contract expired, she did not leave the company to start a new kitchen stove out of impulse. Instead, she eventually fought for the century Galaxy contract and stayed in the company.

On the contrary, Tao cen had left happily that day and formed his own faction. He seemed to have heaved a sigh of relief. He felt good, but he had fallen into another embarrassing state. He still could not escape from Luo Yin’s control.

“I didn’t like Tao cen in the past,”

Mo Anqi mumbled to herself. She did not like Tao cen. After returning from Japan, mo Anqi’s first domestic job was to stay by Jiang SE’s side as her assistant. She had been with Jiang se for as many years as Jiang se had been in the industry.

The two of them were very close. In name, they were employer and employee, but in reality, they were as close as sisters. The things that Tao cen had done to Jiang se in the past had left a very bad impression on mo Anqi.

“But why do I feel that she’s a little pitiful now?”

The corners of Xia Chaoqun’s lips curled up, revealing a smile that sent chills down mo Anqi’s spine.

“Which part of me is pitiful?”

Mr. Luo, please … just as mo Anqi started to speak, Xia Chaoqun said, ”

“For Mr. Luo to be able to start from scratch and earn such a family business, it’s not enough to just have a Bodhisattva’s heart.”

She said indifferently, ”

there are many artistes in century Galaxy. To be able to enter this industry, most of them have good looks.

There was never a shortage of young and beautiful girls in this industry, but how did Tao cen stand out from such a group of people at that time?

Other than the fact that she had good qualities, was full of ambition, and had Xia Chaoqun’s help, the company also had a large number of resources that were willing to pave the way for such an outstanding girl.

However, the company’s sacrifice was not to nurture her wings and feed her ambition, but to get more returns from her.

“There are rules in the circle.” Tao cen could also choose to stay in the company obediently, complete his contract, and leave this place. Naturally, he would no longer be bound by the company and manipulated by the capital.

However, her ambition and self-esteem wouldn’t allow her to do so. If she still insisted on barging into the Bureau, she would inevitably be manipulated by others.

“I’m not telling you this to let your imagination run wild.” Xia Chaoqun frowned. you’ve been working for Sese for many years and you’ve always been receiving an assistant’s salary. Don’t you have any thoughts of raising it? ”

A few hundred thousand Yuan a year was not a small amount, but mo Anqi’s salary had been at its peak ever since she entered the industry.

She had been by Xia Chaoqun’s side for many years and had learned a lot. She had also seen a lot. Xia Chaoqun had the intention to guide her, to help her improve.

Now that Jiang SE’s status had changed, there would be even more people around her to take care of her matters in the future. If mo Anqi continued to be an ordinary assistant, she would remain ordinary for the rest of her life. It would be difficult for her to make a name for herself, and there would always be people who came after her.

After Xia Chaoqun said this, mo Anqi, who was applying a face mask, was taken aback. She didn’t say a word, but a thoughtful look appeared on her face.

She could not be bothered with mo Anqi anymore and continued, ”

“Tao cen is at a slight disadvantage at this time.”

In fact, she should have felt that something was amiss a long time ago. She had announced the establishment of the company at a perfect time. She had originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to increase traffic and suppress “the salvation of God “, which had just won the best film of the century award. This would affect the box office and lead the public’s opinion.

However, in the end, they failed. The news of the new company’s establishment was eventually dispersed by wave after wave of public opinion. In the end, many people reacted to the fact that when Tao cen left century Galaxy to set up a new company, things were already like yesterday’s flowers. It was difficult to make any waves.

Regardless of whether Tao Cencheng admitted it or not, she and Jiang se had already decided who was the better one in terms of attracting traffic.

Now, a stubborn old man like Huo Zhiming had brought “the suspect” to a film Festival in France and signed up for two female leads. This was very embarrassing for Tao cen. It would easily remind the media and fans of the movie she had personally admitted in “the suspect” years ago. She was the female lead and Jiang se had acted in concert with her.

If the media got hold of her, she might become the biggest laughingstock ever since she started her career. After all, Jiang SE’s fans were not to be trifled with.

It had not been easy for Tao cen to maintain her current image all these years. She knew how much restraint she needed. Tao cen was well aware that once she was ridiculed by the public, it would be a blow to her image. It was very likely that many people would follow suit and criticize her. This would then cause some luxury brands that could have contacted her and examined her for many years to back down.

Before Xia Chaoqun could finish his sentence, mo Anqi continued, ”

“That’s why she had to think of a way to divert the public’s attention.”

Her answer was just so-so and didn’t seem outstanding, but fortunately, Xia Chaoqun didn’t criticize her harshly and merely nodded his head.

she’s already agreed to take over ning zhanping’s new movie,’rebirth in fire’, and use it as her first important work after leaving century Galaxy.

When Jiang se heard this, she could not help but feel curious.

it’s not Tao cen’s first time working with director ning. It’s going to be the first hit after the company’s opening. What’s so special about ‘fiery rebirth’? ”

Xia Chaoqun hummed in acknowledgment. Clearly, he had confirmed Jiang SE’s guess.

“In this movie, Tao cen had some nude scenes.”

This was the first time she had dedicated herself to art since she started her career, so she was sure to attract a lot of attention from her fans.

Jiang se stopped asking.

After a few days of rest, the fresh roses Melovin’s team had ordered from the Netherlands were delivered. Jiang se began the second round of filming until late February. After the filming was over, Huo Zhiming’s team finally took ” suspect ” and headed to France.

Not only did the domestic audience pay a lot of attention to the movie, but many netizens abroad were also paying attention to it.

the suspect ” was Jiang SE’s next new work after ” God’s redemption. back then, ” God’s redemption ” broke many records with a global box office of 3.3 billion.

That year belonged to ‘the salvation of God’. Box office sales all over the country showed an extremely good trend after’ the salvation of God ‘was released, attracting a large wave of people to watch the movie.

Even though more than a year had passed, the Grand occasion at that time still remained in the hearts of many netizens.

In the later stages, after God’s salvation was taken down from screening, the audience’s enthusiasm for the movie faded, which caused the box office to perform badly at that time, with a huge drop.

With “God’s salvation” as a box office legend and the “centuries-old filmmaker “‘s recognition, many people thought that this movie would be the peak of Jiang SE’s acting career and that it would be difficult to break through.

Now that she had been away for more than a year, it was inevitable that her new work would attract the attention and comparison of many film fans at home and abroad.

“She’s too young.”

Shu Peien was deeply worried. He was a little worried for Jiang se.

Actually, Shu Peien did not think it was a good thing for Jiang se to be too famous at her age.

At this moment, Jiang se had spent more than eight years to reach the level that Tao cen had reached in more than ten years. She had achieved a great breakthrough in each of her movies. This caused the audience’s expectations of her to increase.

In Jiang SE’s movies, people would be even more critical and demanding when it came to acting and plot.

Being in the vanity Fair meant that Jiang se was at the center of the whirlpool. Before her, there was a godly work like ” God’s redemption ” that was difficult to break through in terms of box office sales and public praise. After that, her marriage was in the public eye.

It was an honor to marry into the PEI family, but at the same time, it also meant that the audience, both domestic and foreign, would have higher standards and stricter requirements for her.

If there was any problem with her performance in ” suspect, ” in the past, people would use the excuse that she was too young and was let down by her beauty as an excuse. But now, if there was any problem, it might lead to ridicule and ridicule from the public.

The slogan of this movie, with Tao cen as the main character and her as the supporting character, was already very eye-catching. However, Huo Zhiming did not play by the rules. When he submitted the application, he put Jiang SE’s name in the female lead column instead of the supporting female character. This pushed Jiang se to the forefront of the public’s attention. When the time came, all the attention would probably be focused on her.

She had become famous too quickly, and her works had always been there, but it didn’t mean that her mental age had caught up. Shu Peien was really afraid that she couldn’t bear such pressure, and then a rare good seedling would be destroyed just like that.

When he was on the phone with cui Zhangcheng, Shu Peien brought up the hidden worry in his heart.

“Huo Zhiming’s style is too difficult to grasp.”

On the other end of the phone, cui Zhangcheng asked hesitantly, ”

“Is Huo Zhiming trying to push all the blame to Jiang se by doing this?”

In recent years, the reputation of his works was not very good, and the box office was not good either. It had almost reached the point where the actors who were slightly famous and had a strong appeal were not willing to work with him. Investors were also unwilling to spend money on him. It could be said that the reputation and prestige that he had accumulated in the early years had been almost destroyed by Huo Zhiming in recent years.

When Shu Peien heard this, he instinctively shook his head. “That’s impossible.”

Since they were all in the same circle, Shu Peien had some understanding of Huo Zhiming’s character.

She knew that the old man was stubborn and upright. He would not resort to such underhanded tricks. There were two reasons why he had filled in Jiang SE’s name as the female lead during the registration.

Firstly, although the movie was initially announced to have Tao cen as the main character and Jiang se as the supporting character, it was actually just a gimmick. The real movie was supposed to have two female leads.

The second reason was that before the filming began, it was just as the rumors had said. Tao cen was the main character and Jiang se was the secondary character. However, during the filming process, Huo Zhiming gradually increased Jiang SE’s scenes and eventually made her the main character.

In Shu Peien’s opinion, the latter was more likely. Huo Zhiming was famous in the industry for being unstable.

Other directors didn’t dare to change the script again and again in the middle of the shooting and make great efforts in the post-editing process to change the film into a story that was completely different from the original setting. However, it was entirely possible for Huo Zhiming to do so, and he had a previous record before.

Many years ago, when Huo Zhiming’s films were still pretty good and he maintained his own style, producing refreshing films, shupeien was not anxious for Jiang se. In fact, he even thought highly of the combination of a stubborn old man and a serious actress like Jiang se.

However, after watching a few of Huo Zhiming’s movies, although he still had the ability to control the camera, the movie had lost the soul of the story and was only left with an empty shell. The actors and actors, the actors and the director, and the camera had all been separated. The story was in a mess, and in the end, it made people feel embarrassed. It was inevitable that Huo Zhiming’s infamy on his head would increase.
