The next day.
On the top of Taiping Mountain stands a large mansion.
This is Master Xing's home. Standing on the balcony, you can almost overlook the entire scenery of Xiangjiang.
Master Xing has had a character that refuses to admit defeat since he was a child.
So he named his mansion "Tian Bi Gao" -.
At this time, he was walking his dog in the mountains.
He is in his fifties or sixties, has long black and white hair, wears a peaked cap, and looks very artistic.
Since filming "Yangtze River No. 7".
He never acted in a movie again.
After that, he filmed "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" and "The Mermaid" as a producer, producer and director.
As a comedy master, he no longer acts, which makes countless viewers feel regretful and unable to understand.
Investigate the reason, Xiangjiang director Wang Jing once said.
When a person reaches a certain age, he can't face being funny in front of the camera or doing the things he did when he was young.
For example, many people would secretly go to Internet cafes without telling their parents when they were young.
In ten years' time, when you have entered the workforce, you will feel at a loss when you go to an Internet cafe.
Xing Ye portrays a comic image in the movie.
In reality, he is withdrawn, silent, serious, and introverted.
So far, he is still single and spends time alone when not working.
In fact, many comedians are like this.
The contrast between the stage image and the real image is huge.
Similar to Xing Ye is Lao Guo.
Lao Guo talked eloquently on the stage, but he was always burdened.
But he is also very silent in private. His favorite thing is to read books in the study and study various dramas.
His partner, Uncle Qian, has a lively personality and is sociable. He can play 8 games a day, while Lao Guo can't play 10 games a year.
Geniuses are solitary.
Because they are not sociable, this personality can easily make enemies.
Xingye used to be an artist under the Xiang Family.
During this period, Sing Yeh became famous with movies such as "The Dragon Back to School", "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", "The Gambler", and "The Gambler", and his net worth skyrocketed, and people came to him to film movies.
When Xingye was filming Huang Baiming's "Happy Events at Home", his salary reached 8 million.
But Xiang Huaru used the Overlord Contract to restrict him. No matter how high the box office was, no matter how high the salary offered by the other party, Star Master's salary was always 700,000.
This price is far lower than the market average, and also far lower than Xingye's net worth.
To put it bluntly, the Xiang family is squeezing Master Xing.
Unfortunately, due to contract restrictions, Mr. Xing could only swallow his anger and work for the Xiang family with a very low salary.
Until the contract expired, Xing Ye left the Xiang family and set up his own film company.
How could Xiang Huaru be willing to let go of this money tree so easily?
It was from this time on that the conflicts between the two sides intensified.
In 2001, Xingye lacked funds to prepare for the filming of "Shaolin Football".
Xiang Huaru directly told Xiangjiang that anyone who dares to invest in Master Xing is going against the Xiang family.
As soon as these words came out, no one in Hong Kong dared to take the lead.
Xiang Jia also used his power to force Master Xing to continue working for him.
However, when the chairman of Huanyu International, another entertainment giant at the time, learned of Xingye's predicament, he came to help and invested in "Shaolin Football".
At that time, Chairman Huanyu was one of the few people who could compete with Xiang Huaru.
Star Master did not disappoint Huanyu's expectations. "Shaolin Football" finally broke the box office record of Hong Kong movies with a global box office of 300 million, becoming the biggest winner of the Academy Awards that year, which was a slap in the face to Xiang Jia.
In anger, the Xiang family banned Master Xing.
Xiang Tai maliciously smeared Mr. Star, summoned Hong Kong entertainment stars, and launched a verbal and written attack on Mr. Star. He poured a lot of dirty water on Mr. Star, causing the entire Hong Kong entertainment industry to bombard him.
A "back-to-back action" swept through the entertainment industry in Hong Kong.
Because Mr. Xing is not good at socializing, his personal relationship with many of his colleagues is average.
And Xiangjia has huge influence, so many celebrities are siding with Xiangjia.
Producers, directors, and entertainers who had worked with Master Xing jumped out to sue Master Xing.
Some people criticized him for being a tyrant on the set and having poor acting skills.
Some people scolded him for being ungrateful to the Xiang family.
For a while, Master Xing fell into a situation of isolation and helplessness.
Only Andy said something fair.
Andy is also a Xiang family artist.
He said that no matter before, now or in the future, he is a fan of Master Xing.
At the same time, he also said that Xiang Hua is his good boss, saying that there must be some class meetings between Master Xing and the Xiang family.
What Andy said is pretty good.
He wanted to help Lord Xing very much, but he couldn't afford to offend the Xiang family, so he could only express his position like this.
Everyone was scolding Master Xing, but Master Xing never said a bad word about others from the beginning to the end.
Master Xing was almost forced to retreat by the Xiang family.
In the past few years, he has not acted, but only worked behind the scenes. In fact, it is more or less related to this incident.
Asking for flowers…………
Fortunately, Master Xing came through.
"The Mermaid", which was released during the Spring Festival last year, won the box office champion with a box office of billion.
He has two companies under his name: Xinghui Company and Tianbigao Group.
The latter is a listed company.
The former’s valuation + the latter’s market value add up to 6 billion.
Among Hong Kong entertainment companies, it ranks among the top ten.
There are not many artists under its banner, including Zhang Yuqi, the star of "Mermaid", Xu Jiao, the star of "Yangtze River No. 7", Chen Guokun, the leader of the Ax Gang in "Kung Fu", etc.
Among them, Zhang Yuqi has terminated his contract.
Master Xing's personality is not suitable for managing artists, but only for artistic creation.
His worth is about the same as that of Cheng Long, more than 20 billion.
"Oh my god, I'm exhausted, boss, how long will it be?"
At this time, the little assistant Zhuang Dafei followed Lu Xuan to the top of Taiping Mountain to look for Master Xing.
"You are only 18 years old, so young, why do you complain about being tired every day?"
Lu Xuan's face was neither red nor out of breath.
"Isn't it being tossed by you? Every time...you spend more than 2 hours...I can't stand it..."
Zhuang Dafei's cheeks turned red.
"Hush, shut up, I seem to have seen Master Xing, Master Xing likes to be quiet, so talk less."
Lu Xuan invested in Master Xing's "The Mermaid" last year.
When we went to attend the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards Ceremony, we also had dinner together.
Master Xing didn't talk much, and the two didn't communicate much at the time.
Lu Xuan came to see Master Xing for one purpose only, to invite him to join the gang.
"Hi, Mr. Xing~"
Lu Xuan tracked the location according to the system and found Master Xing who was walking his dog.
Master Xing followed the sound.
He raised his eyebrows, feeling a little familiar.
Seeing the comedy master, Zhuang Dafei's heart was beating with excitement.
"Hello Star, I'm Lu Xuan, we met at the Golden Horse Awards."
After Lu Xuan approached, he greeted him respectfully.
"Oh oh oh!"
Master Xing remembered you, "I remember you. You defeated Wu Jing and Zhen Zhuan in succession. You used to be the president of Jiaxing, but now I heard that you are the boss of Jiaxing. Hello, hello~"
Master Xing shook hands with Lu Xuan very kindly, "Why are you here?"
He usually doesn't read the news, so he doesn't know that Lu Xuan has come to Xiangjiang.
"Master Xing, I came to see you specially."
Lu Xuan had a close contact with Master Xing and found that he had aged a lot and looked a little melancholy. .
