    Because Wen Zhuoyu fully realized in the negotiation with Pendulum Clock Culture that he has no foundation or background, even if he wants to support a film and television company with a good foundation to achieve a win-win result, the other party may not be happy - as long as he does not go to the end To the extent that there is a company founder who is willing to hand over his hard-earned career to others?

    Although Wen Zhuoyu did not want to annex the pendulum clock culture, the veto power he wanted obviously violated the interests of the founder, Mr. Bai. This is also an important reason why Mr. Bai's position was not firm when other shareholders threatened Mr. Bai on the grounds of withdrawing capital.

    Now that he understands his own naivety, Wen Zhuoyu certainly won't trip over the same stone a second time. So he gave up the idea of ​​taking a stake in pendulum clock culture, and instead set up his own studio. And the responsibility of this studio is to deal with Wen Zhuoyu's performance contract, as well as to invest in film and television dramas that Wen Zhuoyu is optimistic about. When the studio is on the right track and the scale is stable, Wen Zhuoyu may also participate in the filming and production of film and television dramas.

    Just like Gu Xihuai now.

    Because of such a plan in his heart, Wen Zhuoyu also managed the relationship with director Cen Wangnian and his colleagues on the crew very carefully after the completion of "Embroidered Life". Although it is not enough to include everyone in his "royal team", when he wants to shoot a movie or TV series, he will not fall into an embarrassing situation where no one is available.

    "Do you need me to introduce some people to you?"

    After knowing Wen Zhuoyu's ambition, Gu Xihuai expressed his support with practical actions without saying a word. He has been in the circle for so many years, and he has met a lot of people. If Wen Zhuoyu needs it, Gu Xihuai is very willing to introduce his network to Wen Zhuoyu.

    However, Wen Zhuoyu has his own set of ideas about the employment of the studio. After all, he was born again, and Wen Zhuoyu knows all the talents and wonderful people that will emerge in the entertainment industry in the next few years. So he now wants to sign people into his studio while some new actors have not made their fortunes or even debuted.

    On the one hand, it is to use their predictive ability to help each other plan their careers, so as to prevent them from going astray or having a rough career as they did in their previous life, and finally falling into the regrettable ending of retiring from the circle. On the other hand, Wen Zhuoyu is also accumulating contacts for himself. As long as he has trained these people, he doesn't need to worry about where to find people when he wants to shoot.

    As for the more important agent team and other behind-the-scenes staff, these are not just studio employees but closer to partners. Wen Zhuoyu is more cautious when selecting these people. Because he neither wants to see the agent's mediocre ability drag him down, nor does he want the other party to be too flexible to cause trouble for him.

    In Wen Zhuoyu's view, choosing a partner does not have to be amazing, brilliant and talented to the top level. Compared with this Wen Zhuoyu, he obviously values ​​the partner's temperament and vision - only both parties are suitable and get along. A tacit harmony and a level of complementarity are the best.

    "Then how do you see me?"

    After learning about Wen Zhuoyu's requirements for partners, Gu Xihuai, who has been eager to try, came to the door and offered himself: "Do you think I can be fortunate enough to be your partner?"

    Wen Zhuoyu couldn't help laughing and laughing: "I'm looking for a team of agents, not a partner for the show. What are you doing to join in the fun?"

    Wen Zhuoyu didn't believe that Gu Xihuai, who was obsessed with acting to a certain extent, would come to be his manager. Of course, even if the other party really had such an idea, Wen Zhuoyu would not agree.

    Chapter 58 When will you come home with me

    The film "Embroidered Life" started in the summer, and the shooting time was three months. By the time it was finished, it was already mid-October. At this time, the post-production of "Twin" has been completed, just waiting for the approval to finalize the schedule.

    In the end, "Twin" is scheduled to premiere on November 11 on Singles' Day. The film schedule rate is only 13%, and most of the screening periods are set during the daytime and early morning hours on weekdays. Only two of the three days before the release were scheduled for the prime viewing time at 8 o'clock in the evening.

    This is still the golden price that the theater chain has squeezed out of Gu Xihuai's face, because the other movie that collided with "Twin" is the Hollywood blockbuster "Frightening Escape".

    No one believes that a low-cost suspense comedy will surpass a commercial blockbuster co-produced by a major Hollywood director and an international superstar at the box office, not even Wen Zhuoyu and Gu Xihuai have such an idea.

    "If we knew the competition was so fierce, we would have postponed it until December." Director Chen Xusheng slapped his thigh regretfully when he saw the schedule, feeling that he had chosen the wrong schedule.

    Wen Zhuoyu disagreed: "There is still a Christmas season in December, and the competition will be more intense at that time."

    Chen Xusheng sighed and stopped talking. He just felt sorry. Although the film "Twin" is a small cost, but Wen Zhuoyu's acting skills are amazing, and Gu Xihuai is in better condition than ever under the leadership of Wen Zhuoyu. Director Chen Xusheng always felt that if more people could see the film, both Wen Zhuoyu and Gu Xihuai would walk more steadily and better on the path of being an actor.

    Especially for Wen Zhuoyu - although he is well-known in the circle, Wen Zhuoyu's reputation depends more on his investment talent. From the perspective of the big screen and the actor's own reputation and qualifications, Wen Zhuoyu is not. Said to be a pure newcomer, at least there is no masterpiece. And his performance in the movie "Twin" is so good, if this movie can be popular, it will obviously have a greater impact on Wen Zhuoyu.

    But who would have thought that a schedule they chose from thousands of choices could actually collide with a Hollywood blockbuster!

    This is too unlucky!

    When Director Chen Xusheng thought of this, he couldn't help but sigh for a while.

    Wen Zhuoyu didn't think it was a pity. "Twin" is a suspense comedy, which basically does not coincide with the audience of Hollywood commercial blockbusters, so Wen Zhuoyu didn't pay much attention to the situation that director Chen Xusheng was worried about. Because he knows that movie fans who like to watch suspenseful themes will not give up watching "Twin" just because there is a Hollywood blockbuster released in the same period. On the contrary, if the word-of-mouth and quality of Twins really pass the test, it may attract audiences who like to watch Hollywood commercial blockbusters into the "Twin" screening hall.
