"Hello, Director Wu. My name is Bai Yan. I'm a newcomer who signed with Emperor last year. Sister Mary asked me to come and receive you.”
Wu Haoshen naturally recognized her. She was the Big Baochai of 'Dream of the Red Chamber', and the second female lead of the drama. Huo Wenjin only needed to say a few words to get the second female lead without having to bring any money into the production team or attend any dinner or public relations. This was the huge influence of the Hong Kong industry on the mainland film and television industry at this time.
Wu Haoshen was naturally very interested in the white-haired girl. She was his favorite and also a capable girl with great potential. Her looks and acting skills coexisted.
Unfortunately, she didn't manage to make it in time. By the time she made a name for herself with the help of Jade Soo in the drama version, the Hong Kong industry and Emperor Entertainment had already lost their momentum. Even she was not popular.
"Alright, I'm going to have a meal with Chairman Wang of Huacheng and Third Master of Zhongdian later. I really need a female companion.”
Yang Yongqing had wanted to tag along, but Wu Haoshen didn't let her go. If she did, how could Wu Haoshen pick people and sign a batch of future stars?
Therefore, Wu Haoshen didn't have a female companion at the moment. It was reasonable for him to ask Bai Mang to be his temporary female companion. Naturally, Bai Mang was very happy to agree.
This was a rare opportunity. Just like what Li Xiaowan had said to Li Qin last night, if one could make it onto the big screen and collaborate with the Heavenly Kings and Queens, who would want to act in Dream of the Red Chamber?
Li Xue and Wu Haoshen didn't go with them. They told her to settle Fa Ge and the rest down first, and to communicate with them about the follow-up schedule. At this time, Hong Kong stars rarely did roadshows in the mainland. This time, they would go to the seven most important cities in the mainland for roadshows and test screenings.
"Director Wu, are you playing with stocks?”
"No, I'm playing with oil. Why are you interested in this too?”
"I'm just a newcomer who just debuted. How can I have the money to play this? I'm just a little curious. This should be very profitable, right?”
"It's okay. I bought it for 60 USD a few months ago, and now it's already 130 USD. I've earned about 17 million USD from a million USD capital.”
Bai Xiong was dumbfounded. It was the first time he realized how easy it was for these big shots to make money. He had thought that Wu Haoshen was just a freeloader who relied on women to make a fortune. He didn't expect him to have such a strong financial background.
In fact, Wu Haoshen was exaggerating. He had indeed invested a million dollars in futures, but the deposit was not small. He had borrowed the money from Yang Yongqing.
Wu Haoshen didn't remember the rest clearly, but he knew that oil would first soar by more than 140 dollars, then plummet below 30 dollars. He also knew about the global stock market crash and the bankruptcy of Lehmann.
This information was the foundation of his fortune in the past one or two years. With this capital, he could be tough when he did things. He did not have to constantly suck up to some old men and be called a gentleman. He was reborn to be a boss, not a grandson.
After looking at the latest offer for a while, Wu Haoshen logged out of the trading system.
Bai Yan was not a professional. She was the campus belle of Northwest University. She looked very similar to the number one beauty in Korea, Kim Likes, and was praised by the media as "Kim Likes".
Strictly speaking, she was in the same batch as Yang Mi and Liu Shishi. They were both 85 flowers, but their starting points and development directions were different, so their achievements in the future were also different.
"You look very good when you smile. What are you filming now?”
When he heard that Wu Haoshen was concerned about his current career and development, he immediately smiled at Wu Haoshen and said,"She is currently playing the second female lead, Xue Baochai, in the production of 'Dream of the Red Chamber'.”
"Other than promoting my new movie, I'm also planning to sign a few artistes who I like. In the future, I'll focus on the big screen and shoot commercial blockbusters with a lot of investment. Naturally, I'll get to know many big shots and celebrities.”
"Director Wu, are you serious? Is your next movie really going to be a collaboration with Big Brother, or is it an investment of 300 million?”
"What's wrong? Do you really want to get to know Big Brother?"
Bai Yan could clearly sense Wu Haoshen's unhappy tone and immediately apologized coquettishly,""Why would I? I'm definitely more interested in Director Wu. But my contract is still in Sister Mary's hands.”
"It's just a matter of words. Also, don't shoot 'Dream of the Red Chamber'. There's no meaning to it. Since you've signed a contract with me, it's reasonable for me to give you a signing gift.
I'll talk to Big Brother later and ask him to give me the copyright to the drama version of 'Myth'. When the time comes, I'll find a group of people to gather money and invest 200 million yuan to film' Myth'. You'll be the female lead.”
Bai Zao immediately hugged Wu Haoshen and kissed him. This man was too awesome. He had the role of a legend, but who would want to play the role of Dream of the Red Chamber? How could they be on the same level?
It wasn't like they hadn't filmed the Four Great Masterpieces before. How many actresses in the industry had relied on the Four Great Masterpieces to become famous?
The Myth was different. The movie had been very popular back then, and it had an investment of 200 million yuan. Even though Dream of the Red Chamber was said to have an investment of 600 million yuan, it was clear where the money had been spent after spending a few days on the production team.
Wu Haoshen was very satisfied with Bai Xi's reaction. It was only two years ago, but the drama was still very good. It was the top three rated drama in the past decade and had made many people famous. However, it seemed that there were still two people left. When the time came, he would carefully select them. For example, Li Qin, who would be seen later, would be very good to play Lu Su.
Right now, no one knew better than Wu Haoshen how bad the new version of Dream of the Red Chamber was. Wu Haoshen naturally could not let the people he liked stay in such a dark and dirty production team, so the first thing he did was to ask them to resign and arrange another real drama for them.
