Entertainment News Headlines - Chapter 610
610 A bet
Zhou Sheng covered the microphone as if there were people around him. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he took two steps forward and moved to a quieter corner. He then whispered, the news from Mr. Luo has been confirmed.’The salvation of God’ has already been reported to the ‘centuries-old filmmaker’ selection.
He took a deep breath and said, ”
it’s said that he signed a bet with Borgia and huandao company with the final box office of God’s salvation as the bet.
Zhou Sheng didn’t know much either. Although he could get some information about the internal affairs of Galaxy century, he couldn’t get any inside information about big foreign investment companies.
He had only found out about this through the company’s internal staff. He said that Jiang se had received chessaray’s call and disclosed it to her. It was only then that Xia Chaoqun found out about it. The news had spread within a small circle in the company.
if the final global box office of ‘the salvation of God’ reaches 1.5 billion US dollars, he will get the reward that he promised after signing the contract with the investors. If the final global box office of ‘the salvation of God’ is less than 1.5 billion US dollars, he won’t get a single cent of the reward. He won’t get a single cent of the director’s reward for the ‘Lost City’ trilogy that he signed earlier. Zhou Sheng did not care about Tao cen’s feelings after hearing these words. He continued, at the same time, he has to sign another contract with Borgia and huandao. At the very least, he has to film two more movies for free for the investors with zero-pay operations.
In other words, if the global box office of ‘the salvation of God’ could not reach 1.5 billion US dollars, Chesare would have to work for the investors for at least five years without taking a single cent.
he will only get what he deserves if the final global box office of ‘the salvation of God’ exceeds 1.5 billion. If it’s above 2 billion, the division will be different.
This was an extremely bold and risky bet!
As a first-class director, the pay for directing a film by Chesare was like the heavens.
Although Tao cen had chosen to lower her pay for the role in ” the lost city ” in order to open the door to an international market, her actions at that time were completely different from the ‘bet’ Chesare was making now.
After acting in “the lost city “, she had successfully opened up the situation in Europe and the United States at that time. In recent years, she had also discussed some foreign investments and cooperation projects, which could be considered as a familiar face in the eyes of the Europeans and Americans.
However, chessaray was already very famous. Even if he was not as famous as the ‘top’, he was more than enough to be compared to the bottom.
His current fame was enough for him to secure his position as a first-class director without any worries. Every year, many consortiums and investors would pay him to take charge of the scenes. There was no need for him to sign this crazy bet agreement.
Not only did he win the bet, but if the global box office for ‘the salvation of God’ hit 1.5 billion, he would have fully proved his ability and had the qualifications to be on equal footing with famous directors.
However, if he lost the bet, the reputation that he had built up over the first half of his life would be in vain.
He would become the laughingstock of Hollywood, even Europe and America. His career could come to an end in advance.
If his current net worth was in the tens of millions of dollars, then after ‘the salvation of God’ suffered losses at the box office, his price might drop by more than ten times.
The most troublesome thing was that after this bet, the good resources in the future might not fall into his hands first. He would fall from the position of the chosen one to the position of the chosen one.
Chessaray had been in this business for many years, so he should know more about this than Tao cen.
If Tao cen did not know that Zhou Sheng would not dare to lie to him about such a matter, he would have suspected that Zhou Sheng was already siding with Jiang se and was deliberately telling him these things to throw him into confusion.
“Did he really sign the ‘bet’?”
She was still in disbelief. Zhou Sheng said with certainty, ”
“Yes, I am. “The news came from Xia Chaoqun’s side. It’s said that chessaray personally called Jiang se to tell her so that she could be prepared.”
Jiang se had to prepare her clothes, accessories, makeup, and her best condition for the red carpet.
The news reached the company’s chairman, Luo Yin, through Xia Chaoqun. Luo Yin kept the news under wraps until the ‘century-old filmmaker’ event was about to begin. Members of the ‘century-old film history’ event had already received invitations to the event and were preparing to head to the sacred Grand Theater for a 15-day ‘movie viewing’ and voting work. The news leaked a little, and perhaps Zhou Sheng was still in the dark until now.
The major shareholders of the Company should be well aware of this matter. Zhou Sheng used to be Tao cen’s confidant in the company, but he had only just received the news. This in itself was a sign that Tao cen was losing power.
This was why he was so anxious when he heard the news. He was in such a hurry to call Tao cen and didn’t even let Song Yi pass on the message.
Carolus’s shampoo endorsement was indeed very important, but to Tao cen, the endorsement was just an icing on the cake. She had only been able to get the endorsement and become famous in China because of her movies and her works.
If she lost her advantage in the film industry, then it was unknown whether these endorsements would still favor her in the future.
After hearing Zhou Sheng’s definite answer, Tao cen was once again at a loss for words.
If she had not known that chessaray and Jiang se were only friends, that Jiang se had a fiancé, and if she had not known chessaray before and understood that he was an ambitious man who would not lose his mind over a woman, Tao cen would have suspected that chessaray was destroying his own future by doing this to pave the way for Jiang se.
While she was still rejoicing over the fact that she had managed to break Jiang SE’s contract with the Carolus brand and found a way to compete with them, Jiang se was already preparing the clothes and accessories for ‘centuries-old filmmaker’.
The glory and fame that she had been so proud of in the first half of her life could not help her in this embarrassing situation.
At this time, in the capital of the country, after dinner, Shu Peien accompanied his wife for a walk. When they returned home, it was already past eight o ‘clock.
His wife liked to watch a family ethics drama on Huaxia film station and had been following it for more than two months. She was knitting a sweater while staring at the TV screen.
Shupeien didn’t have much interest in this kind of TV. He sat on the sofa with his wife, scrolling through the news on his tablet, paying attention to the movies that would be released in the last few months of the year, trying to pick out the new movies that interested him.
There weren’t many movies that were worth watching in the cinema in October. China had brought in a few foreign commercial movies, and he noted them down one by one.
