Entertainment, I just like making movies

November 7th.

Dongzhimen, Hengyu International Cinema.

"Director Fang, as a newly minted billionaire, will you turn to behind-the-scenes management in the future instead of participating in front-line filming?"

"Absolutely not. Wealth only represents an improvement in the material standard of life. Hobbies and careers are spiritual food that lasts for a long time."

"As long as the audience likes to watch the movies I make, I will film them until I am forty or fifty years old!"

Facing the question from Teng Xun reporter, Fang Ziheng smiled softly and said with his usual tone when accepting interviews.

The reporter seemed to know that he would say this and did not show any surprise.

They are all foxes, who can tell the truth?

The photo was taken even when he was fifty years old. You wouldn’t even believe it.

The Sina Weibo reporter was a man in his thirties. He pushed aside Teng Xun's colleague, raised the microphone and asked: "Director Fang, did the filming of "The Great Wall" go smoothly? Can it be released to the public this year? "

"The filming process went quite smoothly. The film has entered the post-production stage and is expected to be released during the Spring Festival. I hope everyone will support it then."

When the two opening topics were asked, the reporters were no longer reserved and came rushing over.

"Director Fang, what do you think of Director Lu Chuan's new film?"

"Director Lu Chuan said that his new movie "Seven Stars of Lu" will be a masterpiece that will surpass "The Secret of the Dragon"!"

"Director Fang, what do you think about the pregnancy of Hengyu's artist Zeng Li?"

"There are rumors that Zeng Li's partner is a mysterious rich man. Do you recognize him, Director Fang?"

"Director Fang, what do you think of "Cold War" premiering today? Is it possible to break the box office record of "Drug War"?"

One question after another was thrown out of the reporter's mouth, and Fang Ziheng couldn't answer it, or not answer it.

Just like Zeng Li’s pregnancy problem!

What ideas could he have?

It was impossible to tell reporters that his idea had already been put into action.

The child's father is him!

Lu Chuan also said that "The Seven Stars of Lu" will surpass "The Secret of the Dragon" and become a masterpiece of fantasy movies.

In this case, it seems that Ali and Lu Chuan deliberately created a conflict.

If he really choked back, he would have played into the opponent's hands and sent a wave of popularity to "The King of Seven Stars".

Fang Ziheng said that he would not be fooled and would not give Lu Chuan a chance to get involved.

He glanced at the guests who entered the venue behind the reporters, moved up the steps, and laughed loudly: ""Chilling" is a rare movie. Whether it is the innovation of the theme or the cast, it can be said that it is among the top ten in the last ten years. The best Hong Kong police film of the year.

I believe that with the support of Hengyu Media, "Chill" will be able to move forward and leave a strong mark in this year's Lunar New Year! "

Ignoring the first two questions, Fang Ziheng played "Chill" loudly. After playing, he turned around and walked into the movie theater.

Leaving behind a bunch of reporters with resentful expressions and unfinished thoughts!

Large screening room No. 1.

Yindu Agency Song Dynasty and Anle Film and Television Jiang Zhiqiang, as co-producers of the film, were greeting the guests at the door with a smile on their faces.

Next to them, there were two slender Hong Kong female celebrities wearing evening gowns.

Yang Caini who plays Liang Ziwei in the movie.

Man Wing-sham plays the role of Barrister's Assistant.

When Fang Ziheng passed by, Wen Yongshan's eyes lit up, and he pulled Jiang Zhiqiang to remind him: "Mr. Jiang, Director Fang is here."

"oh"

Jiang Zhiqiang looked over immediately, took a few steps forward and handed over his hands cheerfully: "Haha, Director Fang is finally here. Tonight is Hengyu's home court. If you don't come, Director Song and I will have no idea!"

"Mr. Jiang is being humble. Hengyu only provides a platform. You and Director Song are the producers of "Cold War"."

Fang Ziheng shook hands with Jiang Zhiqiang and smiled at Song Dynasty: "Director Song, how about "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" being fully distributed in Asia by Yindu Organization with a 9% distribution fee?"

"No problem, as long as Director Fang opens his mouth, everything will be easy to talk about!"

Song Dynasty's smile did not diminish and he agreed, but in his heart he cursed Fang Ziheng for not being interesting enough.

Nima

Hengyu released "Chill" with a minimum distribution fee of 12%, and also signed a gambling agreement. If the box office exceeds 500 million, it will increase to 16%, and if the box office exceeds 600 million, it will increase to 18%.

Lun Yindu Organization issued "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" with a distribution fee of only 9%. The difference between the two is nearly double. What a double standard.

Song Dynasty felt very unhappy, but had no idea what to do.

Not to mention that "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" has proven its box office performance in the mainland market, even Fang Ziheng and Hengyu Media are not what they used to be.

Not everyone can handle being a billionaire.

The development of Hengyu Media is increasing year by year.

He and Jiang Zhiqiang left Bona and handed "Chill" to Hengyu for distribution because they were optimistic about Fang Ziheng and Hengyu Media and wanted to deepen their friendship.

At this time, Jiang Zhiqiang led Yang Caini and Wen Yongshan over and said with a smile: "Director Fang, these two are the leading actors of "Cold War". You should know this one, Yang Caini. This great beauty is named Wen Yongshan. The most outstanding actress in the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the past two years."

"Hello, Director Fang, nice to meet you!"

The two female celebrities took a step forward and greeted Fang Ziheng respectfully.

Especially Wen Yongshan, a pair of Qiushui lover's eyes seem pure and lustful, lonely and melancholy, which makes people feel angry and always gives people a rush to ravage me and hurt me.

Fang Ziheng was also very aroused. He suppressed the unknown fire in his heart, stretched out his hand to touch the two of them, and said with a chuckle: "Hello, you two, I hope to see your wonderful performance in the movie later. If you have the opportunity in the future, Hengyu Media will extend an invitation to the two for cooperation."

"Thank you, Director Fang!"

Yang Caini's face lit up with joy. He was waiting for these words and bowed slightly to thank him.

As for taking over Fang Ziheng and climbing into his bed to become a rich lady, she was self-aware and could only think about it in her mind.

She often reads mainland entertainment gossip and knows that the newly minted billionaire and international director in front of her is currently dating Liu Qianqian, who is the "number one actress in the mainland".

She was not a little girl, she was about to grow old, so she decided to recommend herself as a pillow.

Yang Caini quickly retreated, leaving Wen Yongshan alone.

Wen Yongshan's eyes glowed, and Yingying looked over and said softly: "Director Fang, the premiere hasn't started yet, why don't you go sit in the lounge for a while?"

As she said that, she took a step forward, took his arm with both hands, and leaned closer to him.

Fang Ziheng: "."

He was hooked, right?

Should I say no?

Fang Ziheng murmured in his heart, but on the surface he kept his expression calm. He nodded towards Song Dynasty and Jiang Zhiqiang, and walked into the screening room with their ambiguous smiles.

Along the way, many people looked at them with attention.

Fortunately, no reporters had come in yet. Except for the guests who arrived in advance, only a small number of audience members sat on chairs and talked quietly.

Fang Ziheng walked lightly, nodding to the people who came to greet him, and said when he had nothing to say: "Miss Wen, are you familiar with Yang Ying?"

"Yang Ying, Director Fang is talking about the baby, right? She and I are good friends. We used to go out and go shopping together on Hong Kong Island."

Wen Yongshan smiled slightly, tightened his hands and said.

Immediately, her eyebrows opened with a look of envy, and she sighed: "The baby has changed so much. Her career and love have been fruitful. Many of her former friends talk about her all the time and are happy for her."

Happy?

maybe!

Since Yang Ying got together with Leader Huang, her resources have skyrocketed, and she has become a target of high praise in the second year after joining Huayi.

This year, Leader Huang personally called Fang Ziheng and asked Yang Ying to be a main member of the second season of "Run, Brother".

With the broadcast of The Second Running Man, Yang Ying's popularity soared, once surpassing Damimi, Song Yi and others, and was regarded as the new "national goddess" by the good media.

As a good friend in the past, Wen Yongshan may have been happy for Yang Ying, but more importantly, he was envious.

However, Yang Ying in her previous life was fine except for her poor acting skills and negative news about asking the crew to have her baby resuscitated.

It was quite helpful to some of my former friends in Hong Kong Island.

Not to mention anything else, Xiong Dailing, who entered the film and television industry under the support of Tianwang's wife, was quite taken care of by Yang Ying.

He appeared on "Run, Brother" three times, fully expanding his popularity.

Fang Ziheng smiled and said nothing, recalling some interesting things in the entertainment industry in his previous life.

The man in front of me, Man Wing-shan, had no scandals in his previous life. He got married early and honed his acting skills in many Hong Kong films. Finally, relying on his good acting skills, he became popular in a spy drama and successfully became a celebrity. Enter the mainland film and television industry.

Arriving at the lounge, Fang Ziheng took his hand away from Wen Yongshan's arms and looked at his "friends" in the lounge with a smile.

"You three, how are you doing?"

The ‘friends’ in the lounge are none other than the three heads of Alibaba Pictures who took 20% of the investment share in “Chill”.

Zhang Qiang, Gu Yong, Zhang Wei.

When the three of them saw Fang Ziheng, their expressions changed slightly and they quickly controlled their expressions.

Gu Yong glanced at Wen Yongshan, a fire of desire surged in his heart, and he said angrily: "Thanks to Dr. Fang's great fortune, Alibaba Pictures and Youku have been doing well recently!"

After Alibaba Pictures was upgraded, the project "Seven Stars of Lu" was frequently reported on the Internet.

Invest 300 million soft sister coins today, invite all the big names and guests tomorrow, and plan to create a super fantasy adventure blockbuster the day after tomorrow.

Riding on the momentum of "Searching for the Dragon", the popularity of "Seven Stars of Lu" has been rising, which not only allowed Lu Chuan to offset last year's bad luck, but also prevented Youku's falling stock price in one fell swoop.

"Qixing Lu Wang" is a key project created by Alibaba Pictures next year. In addition to the group, there are three other investors: Youku Video, China Film Group, and Hengdian Film and Television Group.

It was Zhang Qiang's idea to bring China Film Group and Hengdian Film and Television Group into the business. Alibaba Pictures had not long since been promoted to the same name, and it was difficult to produce and distribute a blockbuster with an investment of over 300 million on its own, so it had to hire foreign aid.

Zhang Wei and Gu Yong complained about this matter at first, thinking that Ali did not need to share the cake and could eat alone.

Finally, Zhang Qiang used Hengyu Media as an example to calm down the following group of executives.

In Zhang Qiang's mind, bringing China Film and Hengdian Film and Television into the game was not to share the cake, but to share risks.

He has always been skeptical about whether Lu Chuan can successfully shoot "The Seven Stars of Lu", and he does not believe in Alibaba Pictures' distribution capabilities to promote the film nationwide.

With the help of China Film and Hengdian Film and Television Group, risks can at least be reduced and absolute publicity power will be brought to the film after its release.

Fang Ziheng is not aware of the internal affairs of Alibaba Pictures. Now he is not afraid of Alibaba when he first debuted a few years ago.

He sat over with Wen Yongshan, looked at Zhang Qiang and asked first, "Mr. Zhang, I heard that Alibaba Pictures is going to upgrade again and establish a large entertainment business group?"

"That's what happened. The headquarters is still in preparation."

Zhang Qiang smiled lightly, not afraid of the news being revealed, and opened the topic head on.

When Zhang Wei heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, thinking of the unpleasant events that happened a few days ago.

Five days ago, Cai Chongxin, executive vice chairman of Alibaba’s board of directors, led a team to UC for discussions.

Alibaba's Strategic Investment Department also led a team under Zhang Wei's guidance, personally led by the department's vice president, to talk to Fang Ziheng about the acquisition of UC shares.

Zhang Wei remembered that several people were sitting in Hengyu’s luxurious conference room at that time. Chen Jun, the vice president of the strategic investment department, expressed great sincerity and valued UC at US$5 billion, hoping to win Hengyu for US$1 billion. Yu holds 20% of the shares.

One billion US dollars!

This is simply a sky-high price. According to UC’s third quarter financial report, Hengyu successfully acquired 20% of UC’s shares for US$200 million at the end of June.

A slight change of hands would result in a profit of 800 million U.S. dollars and 6 billion Soft Girl coins.

At that time, both Zhang Wei himself, Chen Jun and others in Ali, who led the team, felt that Hengyu Media was firmly established.

However, it is not soft!

Fang Ziheng flatly rejected Chen Jun's offer and didn't buy it at all.

He also boasted that UC's valuation would definitely exceed US$5 billion in a year and a half, and it would be uneconomical to sell it now.

After a negotiation, both parties broke up unhappy.

Chen Jun was very angry on the way back, scolded Fang Ziheng for not being polite, and threatened to make Hengyu Media look good sooner or later.

Zhang Wei naturally didn't believe Chen Jun's words.

Not to mention that Chen Jun is only the vice president of Alibaba's strategic investment department, even the person in charge, Cai Chongxin, can't do anything to Fang Ziheng.

Zhang Wei just didn't expect that Fang Ziheng, a newly minted billionaire, was not only as hard-boned as ever, but also had much greater ambitions, and even a profit of US$800 million was not enough.

Thinking of this, Zhang Wei pursed his lips, raised his eyes and asked, "Director Fang, what do you think about UC's shares?"

"If possible, can you quote a price to Ali?"

Zhang Wei used the honorific title. No matter what, the youngest billionaire in China in front of him was respected by professional workers like them.

Fang Ziheng's eyes flashed, he turned his head and looked over, meeting Zhang Wei's sincere eyes.

UC Browser is an extremely important part of Alibaba’s subsequent strategic plan.

Whether it is consuming traffic, pushing UC customers to link to the Taobao platform, or gathering a series of entertainment businesses such as Alibaba Pictures Group, Youku Video, Alibaba Literature, etc. to establish a large entertainment work group, it is very important.

If Fang Ziheng can be persuaded to make great contributions to Alibaba, Zhang Wei believes that her career path will be broader.

She is now an executive of Alibaba's subsidiary. In the future, why can't she become an executive of Alibaba's headquarters?

However, Fang Ziheng's next words completely extinguished Zhang Wei's newly aroused reverie.

"20 billion!"

"In my mind, 20% of UC's shares are worth at least 20 billion. If the price is lower than this, there is no need to discuss it!"

The extremely calm voice sounded in the lounge, like a bomb that knocked everyone to the ground.

Everyone looked at Fang Ziheng dumbly, with expressions of shock and disbelief.

Especially Wen Yongshan next to him, his pupils were dilated, his breathing was rapid, and he wanted to pounce on him.

………

This man is so charming!

He must be taken down!

Taking him down, even if I can't become my wife, is enough to pave the way for my career and achieve a counterattack in life.

At this moment, Wen Yongshan, who originally only had some ambiguous thoughts, constantly aroused the feeling of struggle in his heart.

Yang Ying has the Huang leader!

Why can’t I have Director Fang Da!
