Chapter 107 Taking the Hook
Chapter 107 Taking the Hook
There's a lot of talk in the industry right now that Wang Xiaohao is incredibly good at photographing women!
Jin Ningxin was already very envious when she saw Wang Xiaoshuang's outstanding performance in "My Sassy Girl 1".
Seeing Zhen Liang's stunning beauty in "Beautiful Legend" and her ever-changing charm in "My Love from the Star," radiating unparalleled brilliance, made Grandma Jin Ningxin furious.
This should have been her chance!
Originally, Wang Xiaohao had approached Jin Ningxin to collaborate!
As a result, Zhen Liang benefited for nothing.
It would be strange if Jin Ningxin were willing to accept this!
Even if she were a wealthy heiress, a woman of unparalleled beauty and privilege, she would still feel incredibly frustrated in this situation.
After feeling frustrated, the next step is to find a way to make up for the loss!
We need to find a way to continue our cooperation with Wang Xiaohao!
So when Jin Ningxin discovered that after the release of "My Love from the Star," Wang Xiaohao's mind was basically not on the movie, but on that snow tea.
She immediately recognized the opportunity and, through her connections, got Qiansheng Group to invite Xuecha to set up shop there.
She believed that since she had helped Wang Xiaohao so much, he shouldn't refuse her kindness!
That is indeed the case!
Jin Ningxin had no idea that Wang Xiaohao's release of the "Love Letter" news was actually a ploy to lure her into a trap.
She actually took the bait herself!
However, the ending was somewhat different!
Wang Xiaohao hopes to find a mature team from Qiansheng Group through Jin Ningxin to help him operate the Xuecha brand.
I never imagined that Qiansheng Group would invite Xuecha to move into Qiansheng Shopping Mall.
What Wang Xiaohao needs now is someone to help him stabilize the situation, not to continue expanding!
This is quite a misunderstanding!
But you want Wang Xiaohao to refuse this invitation?
Are you kidding? How could that be?
Based solely on this invitation from Qiansheng Group, Wang Xiaohao's Xuecha franchise fee could increase significantly.
Moreover, to put it bluntly, with the backing of a large company like Qiansheng Group, franchisees would have more faith in the Xuecha brand, wouldn't they?
Therefore, Wang Xiaohao would never refuse someone's kindness.
He was also thinking about how to bring up the operations team to Jin Ningxin.
Despite this dilemma, Wang Xiaohao still managed to meet with Jin Ningxin!
"Ms. Jin, do you remember you didn't like movies like 'Love Letter'? Why have you changed your mind now?"
Although it is said that you shouldn't hit someone in the face or insult someone by revealing their shortcomings.
However, after meeting Jin Ningxin, Wang Xiaohao couldn't help but ask the question!
However, it is clear that Jin Ningxin was already mentally prepared for this issue!
She lied without batting an eye, saying, "When Director Wang gave me the script, I didn't quite understand the story in 'Love Letter'."
But the more I read the script, the more I appreciated its beauty!
This is a love that transcends life and death, yet it is quiet and undisturbed, possessing a moving quality that is like a thunderclap in silence!
In fact, she didn't really like "Love Letter," and you could even say she didn't understand it very well.
Her life was so privileged that even the description of a flower in a greenhouse couldn't describe it.
From childhood to adulthood, she did whatever she wanted.
Even if she were to have an unreliable career and want to appear in public, like an actress or movie star, her family wouldn't object; instead, they would pave the way for her in every way.
Therefore, Jin Ningxin lived to be over twenty years old, completely unaware of the hardships of the world.
Even if someone enjoys reading philosophy books, their understanding is mostly metaphysical and abstract, and they have absolutely no grasp of life and death.
She was able to say all of this only after consulting with other people!
There was no way around it; she loved director Wang Xiaohao's two films too much. Those two fairytale-like love stories were right up her alley.
This aligns with her initial desire to enter the film industry and make movies.
She likes beauty, romance, fairy tales, and beautiful things.
However, for some reason, since she entered the film industry, domestic directors have always liked to make dark and violent films, or so-called commercial blockbusters, none of which suit her taste!
Only the two movies directed by Wang Xiaohao were to her liking!
More importantly, Wang Xiaohao made the female lead look incredibly beautiful in those two films.
In fact, by this time, many people were already privately referring to Wang Xiaohao as the director who was best at photographing women.
Moreover, this rumor is circulating only among actresses!
Of course, some people privately refer to Wang Xiaohao as a director who lives off his wife.
Look at him, his first film as a director relied on Wang Xiaoshuang, and his second film relied on Zhen Liang... He completely rose to fame by relying on actresses!
However, it is clear that the latter rumor has not dampened the actresses' enthusiasm for Wang Xiaohao; on the contrary, they have become even more enthusiastic about him.
Women are different from men. For women, the more a man is pursued by other women, the better he is!
Why is there a saying: "Beware of fire, theft, and best friends"?
Due to women's competitive nature, the closer a man is to their best friend, the more attractive he becomes to them.
If you can steal your best friend's man away, it will only prove your charm!
Jin Ningxin is just a pampered socialite, not someone detached from worldly concerns. Naturally, the fact that so many actresses are adoring Wang Xiaohao only amplifies his charm!
Therefore, no matter what, she was determined to star in Wang Xiaohao's movie and become his leading lady.
Even if "Love Letter" doesn't suit her taste, she has to pretend to like it.
Why did Wang Xiaohao initially approach her with the script for "Love Letter"?
Jin Ningxin was unaware that Wang Xiaohao actually didn't really want to film "Love Letter" at this time.
However, Jin Ningxin's sincere words actually fooled Wang Xiaohao.
He thought Jin Ningxin really understood the script and really wanted the movie "Love Letter"!
Seeing Wang Xiaohao's troubled expression, Lü Xuan suddenly spoke up.
She is Jin Ningxin's assistant and also Jin Ningxin's aunt.
They must be people sent by Jin Ningxin's family to protect her!
Therefore, her words carry great weight and cannot be treated as those of an ordinary assistant!
Lu Xuan said, "We know about the way you, Director Zhang, and Ms. Zhen Liang work together!"
We are willing to cooperate with Director Zhang on the same terms!
Wang Xiaohao and Zhen Liang collaborated, and the two parties split the box office revenue equally.
However, in reality, the entire production cost of the film came from brand sponsorships and product placements.
Therefore, Wang Xiaohao didn't actually spend a single penny, yet he was able to share the box office revenue equally with Zhen Liang.
Now Jin Ningxin and the others are actually willing to agree to these conditions?
It's important to understand that Zhen Liang was begging Wang Xiaohao to make the film; she was the weaker party, which is why she agreed to Wang Xiaohao's excessive conditions.
