Liang Kun participated in a variety show on Tokyo TV, and the ratings were very high that night. Liang Kun sang three songs on the spot, two in English and one in Japanese, and Japanese was a chorus with Ayumi Hamasaki, which made the female audience excited and scream.

His popularity in Japan has surpassed Cheng Long at that time because he is not only an international superstar, but also has a very handsome image.

Only Ayumi Hamasaki and Liang Kun have a good relationship, which can be accepted by the public. If an ordinary Japanese girl is rumored to have an affair with Liang Kun, crazy fans may want to kill this person.

Liang Kun participated in another variety show, and the performance was equally exciting. He sang a song, played the piano with two index fingers and played "Lemon Color", and then played "Wild Bee Flying".

The host asked: "Will you be willing to come to Japan to hold concerts in the future? If you don't hold concerts, you can come once a while."

Liang Kun smiled and said, "I will consider it when I have time. I may not be able to hold it in the short term. I want to prepare for the Olympics. I have never held a large-scale concert in China."

Japanese fans can basically understand Liang Kun and do not expect him to focus his career on Japan. In the eyes of many Chinese and Korean artists, Japan is a big market, but for Liang Kun, the pond is too small to accommodate his big fish. Liang Kun can make a lot of money in Japan, but Hollywood is where he gains fame.

After staying in Tokyo for twelve days, Liang Kun returned to Yanjing. The rewards for the two tasks are lifespan +1 and medium-sized pet pill +1.

Ayumi Hamasaki's two dogs are very famous in Japan. When they were doing an event together, Ayumi Hamasaki also brought the dog. The person who posted the orange mission on the TV station also wanted to have such obedient pets.

Next, Ayumi Hamasaki will prepare for a New Year's Eve concert. It is impossible for her to stay at home and live with Liang Kun. Liang Kun cannot stay in Japan until New Year's Day, otherwise the rumors about them will be too big.

Liang Kun did not go to South Korea to "promote movies". He and Son Ye-jin had been in the United States for a long time before, and when they went to South Korea, there must be media asking about their relationship.

Now Son Ye-jin's career in South Korea has reached its peak. Many famous directors want to ask her to cooperate in filming, but she is so dazzled with the choice of movie scripts. There is also a Korean director who wants to cooperate with Liang Kun, but Liang Kun refuses. His fame is no longer suitable for doing such things, and it is not enough to have big tasks.

The day after Liang Kun returned to China, he suddenly completed two orange tasks at home.

This is the task of the box office results of "The Lost Lover". Liang Kun, the two leaders of Paramount Pictures, made a lot of money by ganging Paramount. The movie has achieved remarkable results in North America and international box office. It is frequently reported in the United States, and Paramount's senior executives are very satisfied.

One of the rewards is lifespan +1.

Another reward received a new trait "convincing".

The text introduction of this trait is: the host needs noble qualities and convincing abilities to be a team leader. The host already has a huge reputation, and increasing the leadership temperament can make it easier to convince others when communicating and make others agree with their own ideas and suggestions.

Liang Kun was able to convince everyone in the crew when filming "The Lost Love" because his ability was outstanding. But he wanted to always have good movies and top blockbusters, but it was not enough to have prestige on the crew. He also had to have a certain say in the film company, just like Nolan filmed "The Dark Knight", Warner would agree with his plan and agree with his ideas.

Liang Kun now has no social relationships with Paramount's senior executives. He is just ganging up Ramon, DreamWorks, making money while making himself quickly gained a foothold in Hollywood and becoming a star.

Liang Kun was unable to participate in Paramount's filming plan and long-term development ideas. This means that he could not create a big-selling series for himself and could not reach the peak of commercial directors.

This special ability is relatively practical and can increase the chance of success when discussing cooperation.

Convincing others is a very important thing in the mind of Paramount, the senior executive who sent the mission. Liang Kun understood why this was a little bit.

There was almost no harmony within Paramount, which seriously affected their future development. Liang Kun and Paramount cooperated for the time being and would not hang themselves on a tree for the time being, and the great director Spielberg also thought so.

Even Spielberg despised Paramount's senior management and believed that some people were outsiders and those who were dragging their backs.

Paramount's major IPs include Transformers, Star Trek, Mission Impossible and "Smart: Ghost Records" series, etc. But ten years later, Paramount's performance has been declining, almost falling out of the ranks of six major film companies.

In a parallel world, DreamWorks "break up" again just a few years after being acquired by Paramount. Spielberg couldn't stand it and took time to argue with senior executives. Paramount had serious differences in the distribution of profits between the two parties.

Paramount broke up with Tom Cruise in 2006. It was not until 2011 that the two sides reunited. The fourth new work of the Mission: Impossible series was launched after five years.

Paramount will gradually lose a series of important partners. What has "stimulated" the decline in performance is the turmoil among Paramount's senior executives. Internal friction has caused the company to lose its innovativeness and adventurous spirit.

In June 2009, both John Lescher, president of Paramount Pictures Group, and Brad Weston, president of production, were fired; in 2013, Paramount fired 100 employees; in 2015, Adam Goodman, who served as chairman of Paramount Film Group for six years, left; in September 2016, Paramount Vice Chairman Robert Moore left under pressure from Viacom senior management.

Liang Kun's orange mission came from Leschel. The two met at the party. According to the original development trajectory, he couldn't work as the president for long. Leschel also had a red mission and wanted to gain more say in the company. Liang Kun didn't answer it, and knew that he would definitely not be able to complete it.

This year, Paramount won the film company's performance championship and filmed many movies that had a big box office hit. This has little to do with Liang Kun. He just made a movie "The Lost Love". The box office of the movie is quite different from "Monster Shrek 3" and "Transformers".

Liang Kun felt that Paramount, who is at the bottom of the six major Hollywood players in the future, is a pity. He has played a lot of good cards. Unfortunately, he has no say and has no power to do anything.

Let’s not talk about how many IPs Paramount has accumulated. You should know that in 2008, Marvel Studios used "Invincible Hulk" and "Iron Man" to cast a stone to ask for directions in the film market, and the "leader" was Paramount.

Marvel Studios initially chose to cooperate with Paramount because Paramount not only had strong financial investment, but also had a huge global distribution network to support the release of the film. However, Marvel Studios always had a partnership with Paramount in the first few years and was not acquired by Paramount.

Paramount executives never thought about acquiring Marvel and were busy fighting, although the box office results have proved that Marvel's IP is very promising.

In 2009, Disney announced that it would acquire Marvel for US$4.24 billion. At that time, Marvel and Paramount had several cooperative films. The two sides jointly released "Iron Man 3", and then they completely parted ways. After 2013, Marvel movies were released by Disney. Paramount had no support from superhero movies and its share in the box office market was greatly reduced.

If Liang Kun wants to get higher evaluations in the director in the future, he needs a big hit series. He began to consider cooperating with other companies and abandoned Paramount. Spielberg could not save him, let alone a young director?

In his memory, in 2012 and 2013, Paramount even fell out of the top six on the list and became the seventh place. The performance of the Lionsgate Films made a fortune by relying on the Hunger Games series and the Twilight series.

Liang Kun hasn't figured out what to do next, and which big company to cooperate with.

He would not consider the series of Lionsgate's films. Although the box office is high, it cannot show the director's level. Lionsgate is good at using R-rated films to defeat big productions, and filming high-box commercial films.

Among the partners that Liang Kun can cooperate with, Disney is undoubtedly the most powerful. The company will hold super IPs in the future, and it is impossible not to become popular. However, he has not been connected with Disney and has no connections at all.

Liang Kun's second choice to cooperate is Warner. Shooting science fiction and superhero movies is the future trend, and Disney and Warner have long been in the top three in film companies' performance.

The good news is that Liang Kun has already joined Warner, which is a good development path.

Warner is currently in a very strong momentum, and Marvel's first movie has not yet come out. In the field of super British movies, Warner is undoubtedly the number one in Hollywood. They have made many superhero movies long ago.

The reason why he was surpassed by Marvel is because Warner's shooting plan had serious problems. The previous "Return of Superman" was an example of failure, and decision-making was doomed to fail.

Liang Kun feels that as long as Warner can convince him not to shoot the stupid "Green Lantern" and make plans to shoot movies step by step like Marvel, he can completely compete with Marvel in the future.

Not to mention anything else, the Batman series filmed by Nolan had a super box office. "Green Lantern" brought Warner into the ditch.

By the time "Man of Steel" was filmed, Marvel was already far ahead, and Warner had no choice but to speed up the progress. They filmed "My Mom's Name" and "Superman and His Pendant Friend" without laying the groundwork, making one mistake at a time.

It is worth mentioning that Nolan is highly valued by Warner. He is one of the two directors who can get the final editing rights in Warner, and the other is the legendary Clint Eastwood. As a producer, Nolan must participate in the discussions about Warner.

Nolan and Liang Kun have a very good relationship now. Through Nolan, Liang Kun has already entered the eyes of Warner senior executives. Nolan once publicly praised Liang Kun in an interview, believing that Liang Kun is no better director than him.

Liang Kun’s advantage is that he is a comprehensive actor. He is also a good actor. Warner has great interest in working with him.

There is no need for Liang Kun to recommend himself, in the future, Warner will take the initiative to find him...
