2208 Twins
“Listen to my advice. Quickly apologize to Director Tian. Don’t let the entire production team waste their efforts on you.”
Qiao Weiyang’s expression had always been casual as if she were an outsider who did not care about the current situation at all. She was not worried that her future and career would be affected.
Hearing Old Madam Qiao’s words, she slowly asked, “What if I don’t apologize?”
“You!” Old Madam Qiao originally thought that Qiao Weiyang would take a step back for the sake of the big picture. Who knew that she would be so stubborn?!
“Sister, don’t ruin other people’s careers just to fight for your pride. Don’t you know that everyone is concerned about our movie now and the production team is also waiting to receive bonuses after the release? Do you know how many families you’re ruining with your willfulness?” Qiao Jierou said pitifully.
Seeing Qiao Weiyang like this, Old Pan was even more disappointed.
Lin Heng also said, “Weiyang, the investors also said that if you continue to be stubborn, you might be banned by the people in the industry in the future. Think carefully.”
“That’s right, Sister. Even if you don’t care about everyone else, you have to think for yourself, right?”
Everyone tried hard to persuade her.
Tian Guang saw Qiao Weiyang’s attitude and sneered in his heart. ‘She’s really a tough nut to crack. Let’s see how tough she can be after I break her bones!”
Old Pan was about to persuade her when his phone rang.
“Everyone, I’ll go out and take this call first.” With that, he turned around and walked out.
Qiao Weiyang was being stubborn again, which made Old Madam Qiao very anxious. However, since things had already come this far, it was impossible for her to ignore it completely. She could only seize the time to persuade Qiao Weiyang.
However, Qiao Weiyang’s attitude was very firm. She refused to apologize or admit her mistake!
“Weiyang, are you going to apologize or not?!” Old Madam Qiao questioned again.
“I’ll never apologize to Tian Guang!” Qiao Weiyang said word by word with determination and disdain.
Tian Guang’s expression changed drastically. If not for Old Pan, he would have lost his temper long ago.
“You!” Old Madam Qiao slammed the table angrily!
“Stop arguing!” Old Pan came in after answering the phone and interrupted the argument. He said to everyone, “Everyone, stop arguing. The copyright to White Fox has been sold by the investors.”
“Old Pan, what does this mean?” Old Madam Qiao asked.
“The movie was originally released by the investors, who were in charge of profits and losses. But now, they’ve sold it for 600 million yuan. The company who bought it took it to release it.”
“Who bought it?” Qiao Jierou couldn’t help but ask.
“I heard that it’s the screenwriter, Man Tianxing.” Old Pan couldn’t help but smile when he mentioned Man Tianxing’s name. He had worked with Man Tianxing before and had a good impression of him.
“The famous screenwriter, Man Tianxing, is an idol in the industry. By the way, I almost forgot that White Fox is his work.” Lin Heng thought of this and couldn’t help but smile. “Since he bought it, then…”
He glanced at Tian Guang and did not say the rest.
However, the meaning was very clear. If Man Tianxing bought it, the movie theaters’ screening schedule for White Fox would not be affected too badly.
The name Man Tianxing was more effective than the name of many investors.
Tian Guang’s face was ashen as he said coldly, “So, you guys still had this trick up your sleeve.”
“Director Tian, let me send you off!” Old Madam Qiao did not want to offend him too much and immediately said.
Just you wait!” Tian Guang left with his assistant.
Old Madam Qiao was a little worried, but when she thought about how Old Pan was also here and the news came from him, she was not so worried anymore.
“Old Pan, did Man Tianxing really buy the movie for 600 million yuan?” she asked. “The investment for White Fox is 200 million yuan. At least 400 million yuan is needed to earn back the cost. Now that the investors have received 600 million yuan, it’s equivalent to earning 400 million yuan.”
“That’s right. That’s why the investors are very satisfied and feel that there’s no need to release the movie themselves. Actually, 400 million yuan is more than they expected. Otherwise, the box office sales would have to exceed 1.2 billion yuan to reach this profit goal. And in these troubling times, it’s not easy to reach 1.2 billion yuan.” From Old Pan’s professional point of view, the investors did not care about the director and actors fighting at all. They were very satisfied with the current profit.
“Man Tianxing has to hit 1.2 billion yuan in sales to recoup his losses! Isn’t he a little too confident?” Lin Heng sighed.
“No matter what, if someone is willing to pay for the release, it’s up to the person. Since Man Tianxing is willing to pay for it, it means that he has his own considerations. At least we don’t have to worry about these things anymore.”
Hearing Old Pan’s words, it seemed that he admired Man Tianxing.
Old Pan said, “Weiyang, it’s all thanks to Man Tianxing this time. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been easy to resolve your crisis. However, you have to remember that with your stubborn temper, you’ll easily suffer in this industry. You can avoid the limelight for a while, but you can’t avoid Tian Guang forever. You have to be careful.”
He spoke earnestly with the affection of an elder.
It was because Qiao Weiyang had not given in just now. He had a whole new level of respect for her. He felt that it was not easy for young people to have such a temperament.
Qiao Weiyang stood up and said respectfully, “Thank you for your guidance, Old Pan.”
“Huh?” Old Pan was surprised. Qiao Weiyang had always been unruly. He thought that after saying these words, Qiao Weiyang would retort. He did not expect her to be humble and polite. It was strange.
With that, Qiao Weiyang turned around and left.
The reason why she had such an attitude toward Old Pan was because she had worked with him as Man Tianxing. Old Pan was a person who cherished talents and was not someone who would interfere in the entertainment industry for benefits.
After Qiao Weiyang left, Qiao Jierou quickly asked, “Old Pan, now that Man Tianxing has bought White Fox, will he still do publicity as usual?”
She valued this movie very much and wanted to use it to make a name for herself, especially to compete with Qiao Weiyang.
“I don’t know for the time being. But in my opinion, since he bought the copyright at a high price, he must want to earn back the money. He might do even more publicity work.”
Lin Heng and Qiao Jierou gratefully sent Old Master Pan off.
Only then did Old Madam Qiao’s expression ease a little. She rubbed her heart that was hurting from Qiao Weiyang’s attitude and sat in the chair.
Qiao Jierou quickly poured her a cup of hot tea. “Grandma, everything has been resolved. There’s no problem. Don’t worry.”
