Entertainment, I just like making movies

7 p.m.

With Xu Ke taking the stage with Liu Dehua and other main creators, the premiere of "Detective Dee: The Dragon King" officially began.

Fang Ziheng and Liu Qianqian sat in the middle of the second row, looking at Liu Dehua who was speaking on the stage with emotion.

Who would have thought that Liu Tianwang, the most popular evergreen in the film and music circles, would not have made any significant achievements in commercial films.

One bad movie after another, and one that hit the street, has depleted Andy Lau's popularity, so much so that movie fans are afraid.

Later, Andy Lau joined Douyin, regained his popularity, and entered the 1 billion box office club with "Bomb Disposaler 2".

After that, the second part of "Little Breaking Balls" exploded in reputation and hit a box office of 4 billion.

With two blockbuster movies, Andy Lau swept away his reputation as the king of bad movies that had been tarnished for many years. Not only did he stop the media's attention, but his commercial value soared, and he was once on par with Wu Jing and Shen Teng.

Speaking of which, Liu Dehua is regarded as an idol by endless fans and recognized by people inside and outside the industry. This has absolutely to do with his excellent character and high quality as an artist.

For any actor, it is impossible for him to remain popular for decades if he hits the market with multiple movies in a row.

Liu Tianwang’s behavior is worthy of his popularity in the entertainment industry!

This time, Liu Tianwang is not the leading star in "The Dragon King of Gods".

Hua Yi wanted to make a third and fourth part, so when Fang Ziheng was refining the script, he specifically asked Liu Tianwang to appear as the introduction in the second part.

In the form of a memory at the beginning, back to the year when Di Renjie first came to the imperial capital, he encountered a shocking case as soon as he joined the Dali Temple.

The purpose of this kind of introduction is to better connect the upper and lower parts and lay a good foundation for the subsequent third and fourth parts.

Thinking of this, Fang Ziheng smiled softly at Liu Qianqian beside him: "Do you want to act with Liu Tianwang?"

"Yes, of course I do!"

The young lady blurted out without even thinking.

Immediately, she turned her head, took Fang Ziheng's hand and shook it gently. She blinked her eyes and said expectantly: "It would be best for you and Zhang Yimou to be the directors, and Liu Dehua and I to play the leading roles.

Well, I can play his sister and daughter! "

Can!

The young lady is thoughtful and understands Fang Ziheng very well, so she didn’t say anything about playing the role of Andy Lau’s girlfriend!

"Daughter, sister, I think it's okay."

Fang Ziheng felt proud and secretly recalled whether there were any similar ready-made scripts in his laptop.

Um..

It seems quite suitable to have a notebook.

In the young lady's expectant eyes, he agreed and said, "I'll have a chat with him later to see if he has any intention to cooperate!"

"Yeah, you have to have a good chat!"

Liu Qianqian nodded happily and took the initiative to cling to Lang, her pretty face full of sweetness.

During this time, she discovered more and more that Fang Ziheng cared about her.

He took her to attend many formal events, expanding her network of people and showing off their close relationship to people inside and outside the circle.

Just like in the lounge just now, whether it was Zhang Wei from Alibaba Pictures or Zhong Junyan from Happy Century, the two strong women did not simply regard her as a top female star. They treated her with respect and kindness, and even A little bit to please.

Especially Zhang Wei's attitude is very telling.

You know, when Zhang Wei faced Zhao Yanzi, the shareholder of Alibaba Pictures, he only showed a little respect.

Even though it was clear that Zhao Yanzi was protected by Hangcheng Ma, Zhang Wei, a direct executive, did not buy it. Instead, he dug a hole and pushed Zhao Yanzi to top the tank!

A star shareholder of Alibaba Pictures Group and a future wife of Hengyu Media Group.

Comparing the two, the young lady is a level higher than Zhao Yanzi in front of Zhang Wei and the founder of Huanrui Century.

Of course!

There must be Fang Ziheng beside him, the reason why the two of them were showing off.

But no matter what, the current young lady is gradually transforming from star status to capital status.

Previously, her Qianying world seemed to be independent, and she was able to survive in the entertainment industry, but no one bought her.

On the other hand, she herself has always been impacted by many rivals in the industry. Countless female celebrities want to unseat her and seize the film resources, endorsements, and fashion resources from her position as the top four actresses.

seven thirty.

The film creators on the main stage finally finished chatting about interesting things about the filming, and left the stage with some unfinished thoughts as the audience watched eagerly.

The movie is officially screened.

The big screen lit up and dimmed, the dragon logo flashed, and the logos of the two production companies Huayi and Hengyu appeared one after another.

In the front row, Wang Zhongjun sat with his legs crossed next to Xu Ke. He was very unhappy when he saw the Hengyu Media logo.

grass!

I was so dizzy that I put my hot face on Fang Ziheng's cold ass and gave up 20% of the movie in vain.

no!

We have to find the location. I heard that Lao Mouzi and Wu Jing are going to start filming new projects, two big casts and big productions.

Even if I act like a rogue, I still have to snatch some shares back from Fang Ziheng.

Wang Zhongjun's mind was racing, cursing in his mind while trying to find ways to steal Fang Ziheng's wool.

A simple picture scroll appeared on the big screen and kicked off the movie.

The Tang Dynasty.

The imperial capital, Chang'an.

At the beginning of the movie, the elderly Di Renjie, played by Andy Lau, stood on the Tongtian Pagoda, thinking about his former friend Sha Tuo who persecuted Empress Wu and eventually died tragically, and he couldn't help but sigh.

As his thoughts wandered, Di Renjie recalled the year he first came to the imperial capital.

The scroll flashed, rolled into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky.

The camera then changed and came to the deep sea.

The navy of the Tang Dynasty was ordered to suppress bandits, but unexpectedly encountered huge waves. The Sea Dragon King caused trouble, and the navy was almost completely wiped out.

boom..

The waves are like the sky pouring down.

In front of nature, the powerful Tang Dynasty navy had no resistance at all. The fleet was shattered and the soldiers sank to the bottom of the sea.

The special effects of "Tiangong Yicai" have been achieved to the extreme. The retro fleet and the deep and mysterious sea all stimulate the audience's perception.

Empress Wu appeared and visited the remnants of the navy in person.

The empress played by Liu Jialing has great majesty. In anger, she goes to Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate the case.

She never believed that there was any Sea Dragon King. There must be someone behind the scenes who was trying to go against her.

Then, the camera came to the bustling Chang'an Street.

Young Di Renjie, played by Huang Xiaoming, rode a tall horse through the bustling streets to report his work at Dali Temple.

At this time, a team of people dressed in colorful makeup came with a sixteen-car sedan chair.

Lying on the sedan chair was a most enchanting beauty.

The beauty's snow-white skin was looming, covered with a white veil, and her grace was infinite, instantly attracting the attention of the crowd on the street.

The beauty is none other than Huang Xiaoming’s girlfriend, Yang Baobao and Yang Ying!

Seeing Yang Ying's enchanting dress, Liu Qianqian bumped Fang Ziheng's arm with her head, pursed her lips and said softly: "Baby Yang is quite suitable for costumes. Look at her temperament. She is naturally charming. She attracts men as soon as she appears. look."

As she said that, she raised her head and glanced at Fang Ziheng, observing his expression.

Fang Ziheng lowered his head and looked at her, saying duplicitously: "It's okay, so-so. This appearance is not one percent as beautiful as yours."

Damn it!

The young lady actually regards him as an ordinary man. Is he the kind of lecherous and greedy person?

Really!

Seeing her lover praising herself, Liu Qianqian felt happy in her heart, but she said modestly: "Don't talk nonsense, how can I be so beautiful?"

"When it comes to playing charming roles, I can't compare to Yang Baobao. I can't let go."

"Who said you can't let go, in bed?"

Fang Ziheng smiled, moved his mouth and whispered into the young lady's ear.

moment.

The young lady was defeated, her ears were red, and she was very shy: "Oh, get out, I will ignore you~!"

Fortunately, everyone's attention was focused on the movie at this moment, and no one noticed the ambiguous flirtation between the two.

Two hours later.

After the movie was screened, thunderous applause came from the auditorium.

The audience stood up, applauded, and praised the performance. They were quite satisfied with tonight's visual feast.

"Yes, Xu Ke is indeed a master of martial arts movies, and he has made another movie as good as "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate"!"

"I haven't mentioned it before. The plot is suspenseful, the special effects are just right, and the exciting fights are pushed to the extreme. The movie is bound to be a hit!"

"I heard that the script passed through Fang Ziheng's hands and was produced by Fang Laoliu. It's almost the same!"

"The special effects are really awesome, and the splendor of Tiangong has shown up again. In my opinion, "Dragon King of Shendu" is more than one level better than "Tongtian Empire"!"

"Haha, we are having fun again. It's hard to say who will win this year's National Day Championship!"

After the applause, there were comments from the audience and some film critics in the back.

Fang Ziheng listened to a few words, shook his head secretly and laughed.

This time, he kind of shot himself in the foot.

"Shendu Dragon King" is indeed good and has reached the top level.

Director Xu Ke’s ability in directing martial arts movies goes without saying.

As long as he controls the script well and restrains his turbulent special effects mentality, "The Dragon King of Gods" will be half the success.

After the baptism of "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate", Xu Ke also has a deeper understanding of special effects. Especially after discussing with Xiao Yang and others from Tiangong Yicai, he knew that special effects should not be used excessively and should be used appropriately.

In this way, "Shendu Dragon King" is created that far exceeds the original version of the previous life!

It is precisely because of this that Wang Zhongjun dared to fight against "The Founding of an Army" and ambitiously wanted "The Dragon King of God" to win the National Day championship.

Whatever!

Let’s see who is the King of National Day!

Fang Ziheng whispered in his heart, raised a peaceful smile and walked out of his seat, coming to Xu Ke to congratulate him.

"Congratulations to Director Xu, "The Dragon King of Gods" is very exciting, and it is expected to break the record of "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate"!"

"Thank you very much Fang Dong Jiyan, and thank you for your refinement of the script. Thank you very much!"

Xu Kexi expressed his words, holding Fang Ziheng's hand in his hands and shaking it vigorously, sincerely thanking him.

Not far away, Wang Zhongjun, who was receiving congratulations from a crowd of people, saw this scene, and his face suddenly darkened.

Damn it!

Thank that guy for what?

That guy should really thank us. If I didn't give up my share of the movie, he would help refine the script for the movie.

Wang Zhongjun strode over, high-spirited, looked at Fang Ziheng with pride and said with a smile: "Director Fang, you have also seen the quality of "The Dragon King of the City of Gods". Hengyu Media is also an investor in the film. What about the promotion? "

"Don't worry, Hengyu will add an additional 20 million in promotional expenses to "The Dragon King" to help the film compete for the National Day slot!"

Fang Ziheng's expression remained unchanged, his smile was long, and he threw 20 million without even blinking.

"Okay, Director Fang's words are enough!"

Wang Zhongjun laughed loudly, and his slightly unhappy mood disappeared in an instant, and he was beaming with joy.

Humph, I finally got a hold of you once!

Although the 20 million promotional fee was not much used and would have to be paid back to Hengyu in the future, Fang Ziheng was forced to speak in person and use Hengyu's resources to promote "The Dragon King of the City of Gods" and especially "The Founding of the Army" Fight in the ring.

So cool!

It’s so cool!

At this moment, Wang Zhongjun was particularly proud, as if he had drank a glass of ice-cold soda in the dog days of summer and felt extremely refreshed.

However, it is not soft!

Wang Zhongjun's feeling of pleasure only lasted for three seconds before being interrupted by Fang Ziheng.

Fang Ziheng's next words made him feel like riding on a mountain train, which almost choked him as he climbed up and down.

He first handed over his hand to Xu Kegong and asked him to speak on stage first and talk later at the dinner. Then he held Wang Zhongjun's shoulders and walked backstage. He said with a smile: "Dr. Wang, it's okay for Hengyu to pay 20 million for publicity. It's a joint issue.

We are good brothers, and I won’t ask a high price. I’ll just calculate the film’s normal distribution share. How about giving me 8 points? "

Ahem

Wang Zhongjun's smile stopped suddenly, he stopped to take a breath, and stared at Fang Ziheng with wide eyes.

8 points!

Why don't you go and grab it!

"Director Fang, you are taking advantage of the situation. Even if Director Xu's film is handed over to China Film for distribution, the distribution fee will be 5 to 6 points at most. 8 points, you can't afford it."

"What you said, Mr. Wang, is hurtful. Eight points is really not much. Hengyu Media charges at least 12 to 15 points for other movies released.

Moreover, I heard that Huayi asked Alibaba Pictures for help. Director Wang, I don’t know how many points you discussed! "

The smile on Fang Ziheng's face remained unchanged, but the tone of his words became more serious and somewhat sarcastic.

At first, he didn't know that Hua Yi asked Alibaba Pictures for help.

It wasn't until today that Zhang Qiang and Zhang Wei came to support him, and he accidentally heard a brief exchange between Zhang Wei and Wang Zhonglei, and he suddenly realized.

hehe

You, Mr. Wang, still want to use 20 million publicity resources in vain, don’t even think about it!

Alibaba Pictures can share the profits from the distribution of "The Dragon King of God", and Hengyu Media can naturally share it as well.

Not even one point less!

If I piss off someone on our side, I will immediately put 20 million into "The Great Cause of Army Building"!

Entered the lounge.

Fang Ziheng sat on the sofa, took out a cigarette and gave it to the other party, lit another one for himself, and took a puff.

Wang Zhongjun sat opposite, took the cigarette and smoked silently without saying a word.

The two of them just spent their time without anyone speaking first.

Until the cigarette burns out.

Wang Zhongjun just raised his head, stared at Fang Ziheng with a stern face, and said slowly: "This way, Director Fang, at 6 points, Hengyu will issue an additional 30 million resources on the basis of 20 million!"

"impossible!"

Fang Ziheng waved his hand, flatly refused, and then said: "Seven points cannot be missing. Hengyu Media can at most issue an additional 10 million in promotional resources!"

"Also, Fang would like to remind Director Wang that Alibaba Pictures is just a cross-border company from the Internet. Relying on their help in publicity, 10 million resources can only produce 70% of the effect.

Hengyu Media also has online media resources, and offline publicity resources, Hengyu even beats Alibaba Pictures! "

As soon as these words came out, Wang Zhongjun became angry.

He put out his cigarette and glared at Fang Ziheng, full of resentment.

"Director Fang, I should ask you this. How many times have I called you before, but you haven't answered any of them.

Hua Yi is on "Shendu Dragon King", and there are two major companies: Hengyu and China Film. What if I don't find help? "

"Now you tell me this, I tell you, it's too late. Huayi has signed a joint distribution contract with Alibaba Pictures, and the decision cannot be changed."

Fang Ziheng: "."

Blame me!

From his perspective, he must first ensure the advantages of "The Great Cause of Army Building" before freeing up resources to support "The Dragon King of the Divine City".

Again, with today's market capacity, it can fully accommodate two popular movies.

There will not be a situation where one family takes it all and one family fails miserably.

Wang Zhongjun was obviously dazzled by Huayi's stock price, so he turned to outsiders when he didn't get a satisfactory answer.

He didn't even think about it, if he really didn't take "Shendu Dragon King" seriously, he could come over to help support the show tonight.

"Director Wang, please consider my proposal carefully!"

"No matter what, I still hope that Hua Yi will maintain our previous alliance agreement!"

At this moment, Fang Ziheng was no longer in the mood to talk anymore. He took a deep look at Wang Zhongjun, who had a gloomy face, and spoke indifferently.

Immediately, he stood up and strode out.

He has already said this, and his meaning is obvious!

After today, whether he wants to be friends with Hengyu or become his rival, it all depends on him, Wang Zhongjun!
