Chapter 744 Dividends, I'm Waiting for 60 Yuan

After the official end of Blueberry Channel, the first season of Running Man on Tudou also came to a successful conclusion.

As one of the top three hit variety shows of the year and the number one reality show in China.

Its popularity and topic volume exploded again on the day when the online broadcast ended, directly dominating the entertainment headlines and hot search lists.

The calls from countless viewers and netizens for the second season can be described as overwhelming and passionate.

Seven permanent guests and a few flying guests also topped the hot search list, and the limelight was even more intense for a while.

Throughout the first season, their number of fans, commercial value, and announcement endorsements have all been rising steadily, making a large number of artists in the circle envious.

At the same time, both the advertisers of the first season and other brands with ideas have also taken action one after another.

The purpose is very clear, that is, to find out the launch time and investment plan of the second season of Running Man, so as to be prepared to participate in the bidding at any time.

"According to insiders, the large-scale outdoor reality show "Running Man" controlled by Lin Nan Film Industry may have a permanent guest leave the team and miss the second season."

"Among the seven permanent guests, the information of the departure is unknown and needs to be further disclosed by the producers..."

"The phenomenal hit variety show "Running Man", its permanent guest selection will definitely be fought over by many celebrities and artists in the film and television industry and the entertainment industry!"

...

There are really no secrets in the entertainment industry.

It has only been a few days since Wang Baoqiang left "Running Man". Fortunately, only a little bit of it was leaked.

But even so, the entertainment hot spot of Tangren's No. 1 sister getting married yesterday was suppressed by this incident, and the hot search ranking can only be temporarily ranked below it.

And it is indeed as the entertainment information said, the circle has been lively all of a sudden.

A large number of actors, stars and artists and their companies are paying attention to the vacant permanent guest quota of "Running Man".

Because this has been verified through the first season, the industry's top resources and big cake! No artist can not be tempted, and can't resist this temptation at all!

"Someone actually gave up? Who left?"

During the break of the film "Why Sheng Xiaomo", Yang Ying sat next to Huang Xiaoming with a look of surprise.

All the actors and staff around her could hear something strange in her tone.

"Did Baby go to the first season of "Running Man"?" Yang Mi looked up and asked.

"She went to two episodes and her fans increased a lot."

"Yeah, it's fun." Yang Ying agreed.

Huang Xiaoming smiled and nodded. How could he not hear what his girlfriend meant? She just wanted him to find out some news.

"Even if someone left and missed the second season, it wouldn't be Reba. The female artists in the circle don't even think about it."

"Why?"

Yang Ying refuted Huang Xiaoming, what if?

"Because this is a shortcut to the first line, it only takes time, and Reba is still a little short of the heat, and Director Lin will not allow her to go astray."

Yang Mi explained aloud, and then remembered the face-slapping words Zeng Jia had said solemnly at the beginning.

She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, capital is really good, to promote people, you only need to invest resources! No shortcuts? Then create shortcuts!

Yang Ying frowned subconsciously, she still held a glimmer of luck.

"Mi Mi is right, that's the truth, don't think too much.

Lin Director's company has four artists, each of whom will have a road to the first line, and Reba's road is "Running Man"! "

Huang Xiaoming is worthy of being a person who has been in the entertainment industry for many years and successfully promoted to capital. He was very confident.

"What about me?"

"Then I can be a flying guest more often."

"Then it depends on you."

Yang Mi watched Yang Ying and Huang Xiaoming affectionately from the side, which was really "disgusting".

To be honest, she really looked down on Yang Ying. If it weren't for Huang Xiaoming's help, Yang Ying would not have been able to get into the four little flowers, let alone the second line.

Anyway, she couldn't rely on others. In her cognition, her career had to rely on herself! Others are just others after all!

…………

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei came out of the cinema near noon.

As the finale of the series, The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies gives a very good viewing experience.

Especially the grand war scenes with a lot of CG special effects, which make all the audience shine. The ticket price of 100 yuan is worth it!

The two found a restaurant, Liu Yifei was ordering dishes, and Lin Nan was looking through missed calls and text messages.

"It is really wise to turn off the phone when watching a movie, these people."

"What's wrong?" Miss Liu asked in confusion.

"12 missed calls, 8 text messages, of which Mr. Wang accounted for about one-third."

Lin Nan browsed the news online and already knew the reason.

"Only Xie Nan missed a call on my side. Wu Tian is going to start promoting Wolf Warrior."

Liu Yifei nodded and said that as investors of Wolf Warrior, Wu Tian and his wife must say hello to her.

"Well, it's really annoying, it's happening again!"

The phone buzzed, and the two smiled at each other. Liu Yifei joked, "Boss Wang, you won't stop until you get through."

At this time, the waiter was ready to serve the food.

Lin Nan thought about it, chose to hang up the phone directly, and sent a text message back.

"Let's have lunch first. As for what he wants to do with me, you don't have to think about it. It's just a joke!"

"Yeah, let's start."

…

light.

Wang Changtian looked at the text message he had just received, feeling helpless.

He just wants to put Bao Bei'er into "Running Man", why is it so difficult?

According to the estimates of the company's team, once Bao Beier becomes a permanent resident in "Running Man", it will definitely become popular in the future.

The previous resident guests were already full, and Lin Nan wouldn’t let go, so of course there was no way.

But things are different now. There is a fool who has taken the initiative to choose to quit. Shouldn't we seize this good opportunity of pie-in-the-sky? !

On the other side, Lin Nan Pictures' official account was also in a mess.

Fans of many celebrities and artists in the circle have a melee here.

Some people recommend their own idols, some people bully other celebrities, and some people directly criticize them. There is a lot of chaos.

So much so that Yue Jun directly closed the comment function, and then everything became completely quiet.

Several days have passed, and the "Running Man" incident is still the focus of attention in the industry, but no new news has leaked out.

Lin Nan also stayed at home for several days, because there were always media reporters staying at the company.

According to the plan, the investment promotion for the second season of "Running Man" will be carried out in February, and new candidates will also be determined in February. Yue Jun will be responsible for these.

As for Lin Nan, she will negotiate with Wang Changtian about cooperating for the second season at the end of February, after the Oscars.

After all, he couldn't do things like tearing down mills and killing donkeys, crossing rivers and tearing down bridges. However, he was not prepared to continue to give 30% of the Rays' investment share, so it had to be reduced.

Because the team of Lin Nan Pictures can almost hold the situation on its own.

If the people from South Korea are left to consolidate for the second season, the company's team will be completely mature.

Although everyone has a good relationship, they can't be prostituted for nothing, right? Therefore, the investment share given to Ray must be reduced a bit.

On the 27th, Huayi Annual Meeting and General Meeting of Shareholders.

In the eyes of colleagues in the industry, Huayi is really a thief.

Every time, the annual meeting and the general meeting of shareholders are put together. When they are superimposed on each other, the popularity of public opinion suddenly rises.

At around nine o'clock in the morning, Lin Nan did not choose a suit and leather shoes, but a bottoming shirt and a down jacket directly outside.

The weather was so cold and snowing, so he wouldn't suffer for the sake of his dignity and grace, and he wouldn't be under the heating and air conditioning all the time.

"Why don't you wear what I bought for you?"

Liu Yifei, dressed in warm home clothes, folded her hands on her chest, frowned and asked coldly, startling Lin Nan.

"Well, this down jacket is the same."

"Since it's the same, then wear that one? I think you look good in it."

As she spoke, Liu Yifei turned around and ran to the cloakroom, bringing Lin Nan's clothes in less than half a minute.

"Here, this one." She looked at Lin Nan with a joking smile on her face.

"I'm really speechless."

What can Director Lin do? You can only accept it silently.

"Don't be too dissatisfied with this or that. The color is so good. It's much prettier than the one you bought... I'll help you..."

After a while, Liu Yifei looked at Lin Nan covered in clothes and shoes she bought, and nodded with satisfaction, "Well, very good!"

"There are indeed many female artists at Huayi's annual party. But no matter what I wear, I should be very conspicuous. What do you mean, Producer Liu?"

Well, Lin Nan saw what he was thinking.

Liu Yifei didn't hide it either, "But you still have to be careful, don't be like Director Ning..."

Hearing this, Lin Nan immediately became happy, "You know everything?"

"Yeah, that sister said that there are no good people over there! I wonder, isn't this something everyone in the industry knows? Hehe..."

Miss Liu was smiling brightly, she must be laughing at Ning Hao.

"Okay, I'm leaving. After all, the expenses for our wedding have to come from Hua Yi! I have to see how much I can get for the last time today, hehehe..."

"Yeah, come back soon."

…

As the listed company with the highest market value in the domestic film and television industry, Huayi's market value has nearly doubled, especially last year, with the full bloom of real estate and financial projects.

It is not an exaggeration to use "whale" to describe the giant ship Huayi. Therefore, this general meeting of shareholders and annual meeting is also the focus of the industry.

At a quarter past ten o'clock, Lin Nan arrived at the venue of Huayi's shareholders' meeting.

It is said that it is an annual meeting and a general meeting of shareholders, but it is actually no different from a grand party.

Because Lin Nan saw Jackie Chan, Xu Ke, Li Bingbing, Fan Bingbing, Huang Xiaoming and others from a distance. These are all insiders with their own companies or studios.

In addition, there are actors from other film and television companies, such as Li Yifeng, Jiang Wenli... and others in the Beijing circle, Xu Jinglei, Guan Ru...

Of course, the most conspicuous ones are those from the Huayi family, Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Jizhong, Zhang Guoli, Gu Changwei...

"Director Lin, please come in quickly."

"Hey, Director Lin has been back from Hollywood for almost half a month. Today I have to congratulate him on the Golden Globe Award for Best Director!" Jackie Chan hugged him as soon as he came up.

"Brother, are you a little late?"

"Lin Nan, congratulations."

"Thank you, Director Gu."

…

Say hellos, talk and laugh one after another.

Feng Xiaogang and Guan Hui, who were in the distance, glanced here, pretended not to see anything, and continued socializing.

"I heard that Director Xu introduced that you could have made a guest appearance in "Mermaid", but I guess it was our director Lin who didn't nod, so, haha."

Feng Xiaogang made a sudden joke, causing the people around him to subconsciously look in Lin Nan's direction.

"But don't be discouraged. Our "Old Paoer" is no worse than Zhou Xingchi's "Mermaid". It's just a cameo. I don't know if the investment of 300 million can be repaid. It's not Zhou Xingchi who plays it..."

"Why don't you go say hello?" Xu Jinglei said.

…

Lin Nan attended Huayi's shareholder meetings only a few times, but every time he got the same feeling: a mixed bag.

After just half an hour of chatting with acquaintances, a large group of Huayi artists with their own ulterior motives wandered over intentionally or unintentionally. Lin Nan would not look down upon them, it was annoying.

However, he sincerely "admired" Wang Zhonglei's operation and actually asked his 17-year-old daughter to pour wine for everyone. Was this to pave the way in advance? To train celebrities or to take over?

"Director Lin, let me introduce to you, this is the most popular young artist in the country right now..."

Xu Jinglei was a little disgusting. She held Wu Yifan's hand and ran over to say hello. Wang Shuo was still chatting there. It was really confusing...

…………

At this Huayi shareholders' meeting, Lin Nan was looking forward to the content of the second king's speech.

Well, it’s just like the expectation for Uncle Zhao and Uncle Chen’s Spring Festival Gala sketches in the past, purely for the sake of watching “jokes”.

Sure enough, from the whole article: real estate is very profitable, financial project income is doubled, game development is very profitable...

The most basic film and television business was covered in just one sentence: Yu Huayi's revenue share continued to decrease, falling to less than 5%.

At the end of his speech, Wang Zhongjun added the last sentence: "It is expected that within this year, the group will completely cut off the artist management business."

The subtext of this sentence is: Artists who have a direct management contract with the group and it is about to expire, please find a new one as soon as possible! If the direct brokerage contract has more than one year left, it’s time to talk about terminating the contract!

Lin Nan sighed again, these two brothers have gone completely crazy. I was so excited by the market value of 70 billion that I went crazy!

…

"1.02 million shares? 1.55 million in cash?"

When Lin Nan got the details of his dividends, he was still a little unresponsive.

Huayi issued a lot of additional shares last year. He thought that all dividends would be paid out in the form of additional shares. Unexpectedly, there was still some cash? !

"Director Lin, if I had known better, I shouldn't have sold the stock so early."

Huang Xiaoming came over and joked.

"If you hadn't sold it so early, you might just be an actor now." Lin Nan joked with a smile.

Huang Xiaoming's ability to increase capital relied on Huayi's stock.

He initially bought 1.8 million shares, then acquired another 1.8 million shares, and finally sold them all. With hundreds of millions of funds, he has successfully developed into a capital in the industry.

"Hahaha, that's right."

"Director Lin, what I promised before is still valid. If you want to change hands, you can contact me."

Wang Zhonglei suddenly ran over and said to Lin Nan. Huang Xiaoming was a little confused.

Lin Nan thought for a moment and replied "sincerely":

"I'm waiting for 60 yuan. When Huayi's stock price reaches 60 yuan, I will clear it all at once. Of course, if Mr. Wang is willing to take over for 60 yuan, we can cooperate now."

Lin Nan's voice was neither loud nor quiet, and seven or eight people around him heard it, and all looked at Lin Nan in astonishment.

Wang Zhonglei's mouth trembled slightly, "Haha, Director Lin, today's stock price is only 57 yuan!"

"Then just wait. Director Wang spoke so excitedly on stage just now. He is obviously full of confidence in Huayi's future. Unfortunately, I am too!"

Come with good fortune and return with bad luck. This sentence is enough to describe Wang Zhonglei who is leaving at this moment.

Huang Xiaoming opened his mouth and smiled helplessly: "Director Lin, you are the only one who dares to talk to Mr. Wang like this."

"What are you afraid of? He can still eat me?"

Lin Nan's calm look left Master Huang speechless, as did many people around him, because Lin Nan was indeed qualified to say such things!
