Huayu: From charlatan to great entertainer

Chapter 84: Killing the Girl
Lu Kuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Fan Bingbing still had such a rebellious spirit at this time.

However, considering that she later repeatedly refused the role of the mistress "Wu Yue" in "Cell Phone" and only agreed after being forced by Wang Jinhua, it is not so surprising.

The weakness of domestic entertainment artists in this era in terms of work creation and career development is evident.

Just imagine if her hype failed and she didn't become popular, and lost her economic value, her agency would abandon her.

This is also her biggest concern now.

But fate is so fickle, and Boss Lu knew that what really helped her turn her life around in the future was Feng Xiaogang's "Cell Phone".

With this movie, she won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress, got rid of the title of vase, broadened her acting range, and entered the big screen.

"You don't even trust Huayi, so why did you think of looking for me?"

"How can I compare with Sammo Hung? He's Fang Long's senior, a big shot in the Hong Kong entertainment industry!"

Boss Lu’s meaning is also very clear.

If you don't want to be sold to Sammo Hung by the company to create scandals or even to use actual combat to improve your status, then why did you find me?

A novice director who has no works yet.

Fan Bingbing wiped her tears with the back of her hand and spoke timidly.

"I don't know, I just think you're more capable than anyone else."

"As soon as you debuted, Zhang Jizhong was able to obey your every word and change roles at will."

"You said Zhang Tianshuo was going to be unlucky. He'll be imprisoned and shot in the blink of an eye."

"Hong Kong actors are targeting you, but you can quickly put together a team to make a movie and even prepare to participate in the Venice Film Festival."

These words were both flattering and aggrieved, which made people feel happy after hearing them. Naturally, no one could blame her for spying on the information.

"What can I gain by helping you?"

Lu Kuan is a quick-witted and outspoken person. He knows Fan Bingbing's character and knows that he is a natural player in the entertainment industry.

Doing business with a woman who understands equal exchange is very happy and fulfilling, because she knows what she wants and what you want.

He is happy and she is fulfilled.

When talking about the main part of the play, the female fairy on the bed put away her pitiful look and put on a sexy and charming disguise again.

"As long as you want, as long as I have."

The delicate and charming magic sound fills your ears, and a beautiful girl looks at you with tenderness and love.

It's as if you can make her tie her hair up with just a little finger and crawl over to you on her knees to cool you down.

No director can withstand this kind of test!
Boss Lu knew that what she said might not be the truth. She could jump between Huayi and the Hong Kong circle, so couldn't she try her best here?

But he doesn't care. As I said before, it's an equal exchange.

"I can ask you to star in my next movie, or I can tailor a development plan for you."

"Since you mentioned Liu Yifei, I have shares in her agency, and you are from Huayi."

Fan Bingbing frowned handsomely: "Do you want me to quit Huayi and join your company? Then I..."

"No, stay at Huayi."

"what?"

"Stay at Huayi, share what you have, and serve the Party and the country."

Huayi will naturally be an unshakable aircraft carrier in the domestic entertainment industry for many years to come.

Lu Kuan's film will compete with their contracted director Feng Xiaogang, and Lu Kuan's agency department will compete with their large cast for resources.

Even in the public opinion arena, there will be some friction between the two sides. In the entertainment industry, there are only a few people standing at the top of the pyramid. If you don't come down, how can I go up? If there is an insider who can stir up trouble within Huayi, it can be regarded as a strategic move.

As for whether she is a double agent, it doesn’t matter at all. Boss Lu is the kind of person who won’t release the eagle until he sees the rabbit.

"Huayi is now trying to create a black and red persona for you, a persona of a mistress. You should think carefully about this. This is a road of no return."

"What is a persona?"

"It's the image of a star or public figure in the public's mind."

"Public opinion is very powerful. If it says you are a virgin, you are a virgin. If it says you are a slut, you are a slut."

Lu Kuan lit another cigarette: "You know about blogs, right?"

"Of course, every artist in the company has one now, but not many people read the content I post."

Seeing Boss Lu smiling without saying anything, Fan Bingbing suddenly reacted.

"You mean!?"

"Public opinion is a little girl who can be dressed up by anyone. I can give you some help in this regard."

He neither admitted nor denied that Lu Kuan intended to sign a shareholding agreement with his senior brother, completely move behind the scenes, and sever ties with Blog.com.

Sooner or later, Blog.com will come into direct conflict with other Internet companies.

His main battlefield is in movies and the entertainment industry. If everyone knew that he was the boss of Blog.com, those Internet capitals that wanted to enter the entertainment industry would definitely limit the flow of his works.

The most direct ones are Penguin and Alibaba, which invested in Huayi when it went public.

If one day Feng Xiaogang's films from Huayi and Lu Kuan's films compete with each other during the Lunar New Year holiday, it will be difficult for the Internet companies that have invested in Huayi to avoid taking sides.

It is a trend for Internet capital to enter the field of large-scale entertainment in later generations, but Boss Xidelu started planning for it at the beginning of his business.

When doing business, the key is to ask for a high price and pay a low price.

Fan Bingbing had almost made up her mind to turn from evil to good, but she didn't expect the other party to just ask her to hold back.

Fan Bingbing was very happy because she thought she had a free lunch, but she didn't know that Lu Kuan would use her for good.

The free ones are the most expensive.

She reached out with a seductive look and took the cigarette out of Lu Kuan's mouth, her red lips moving as she exhaled lightly.

The pleasant smell of mint perfume, accompanied by the ambiguous smoke, rushed into his mouth and nose, making his whole body numb...

Boss Lu glanced at the large comprehensive simulation test paper on the table with his clear eyes in a trance.

forget it...

I was busy until late at night, and when I looked at my phone in a daze, it was already 3 a.m.

Boss Lu finally got to see the truth today.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and lit a cigarette.

"Bingbing, take a break?"

"It's ok if you can, it's ok if you can't, what does it mean to take a break?"

Fan Bingbing leaned over and stared at him, with a few drops of sweat on his forehead.

Boss Lu saw a strong sense of oppression in the eyes of the beautiful girl.

"No, I really put in my best effort in this review!"

Fan Bingbing sneered: "Haha, if you don't eat, where will you get the energy from?"
