Entertainment, I just like making movies

Before we knew it, it was mid-March.

With "Tang Detective 2" breaking the 2 billion mark and reaching the top, the film market seems to have breathed a sigh of relief and entered the off-season mode.

Throughout mid-March, the market averaged over 40 million box office a day, which is less than 1.5 billion in a month.

Except for "Need for Speed" produced by Hollywood DreamWorks, which received 40 million on the first day, the other movies are simply not worth mentioning.

"Fire of the Day" will be released in a few days, and I don't know if it can break the curse of the previous life.

This movie was a big hit at the Berlin Film Festival, and its quality cannot be overemphasized. It is a top-notch film.

If it were five years ago, it would definitely be able to bring overseas Dongfeng blessings to the mainland market and attract a large number of audiences into the movie.

Now...

Commercial films are rampant, audience tastes are slowly changing, and the bonus of international awards is almost reaching freezing point.

During this period, Fang Ziheng stayed in Jinling, polishing "I'm Not the God of Medicine" with great concentration, while paying attention to the outside world.

Although the movie market is quiet, the entertainment industry is exciting and bustling.

Huayi, Guangxian, Bona, Wanda, China Film, Tengxun Pictures, and Alibaba Pictures successively held press conferences to announce big moves after the beginning of the new year.

Wanda Pictures is the most high-profile. It first released its second pure costume blockbuster "Warring States", and then announced that it would start filming the sequel to "Pacific Rim" with Legendary Pictures.

In this life, in addition to owning the No. 1 Wanda Cinema chain in the country, Wanda also controls the global hit "The Great Wall," and Wanda Films has successfully promoted itself to the film and television giant industry.

The two blockbusters announced this time are just like Wang Jianlin and Fang Ziheng learning from their experience and taking the route of large-scale production and high-quality products.

Guangxian was unwilling to be left alone. Wang Changtian gritted his teeth and sold all his shares in Xinli Media to Tengxun, cashing out more than 2 billion in cash.

Perhaps knowing that he could not get the rights to use Beston TV, this guy adjusted his strategy and entered the theater chain. He spent 15 soft sister coins to acquire 30% of the shares of Dadi Cinema Line, becoming the second largest shareholder of this eighth-ranked theater chain. .

However, Dadi Cinemas does not have a good reputation in the industry. It has often been reported for stealing box office, and has even been criticized by Optoelectronics.

In addition, Teng Xun finally showed his fangs to the entertainment industry.

By snapping up 70% of Xinli Media's shares, not only did it achieve full control, but it also prepared to merge Xinli Media into Tencent Pictures.

Chen Wu of Tengxun Pictures has set his sights on Huanrui and Tangren Film and Television Company, imitating Alibaba and throwing money at people, as if he is going all out to enter the production field.

How should I put it, Tengxun Pictures has the foundation of cooperation with Hengyu, and it can be regarded as tasting some sweetness.

Not to mention other things, "Immortality" alone, with an investment of up to 500 million soft sister coins, has brought a lot of reputation and fame to Tengxun Pictures.

Major film and television companies release new films every year, stirring up trouble in the entertainment industry. Tengxun Pictures has Tengxun in charge, so it naturally wants to be prestige.

Fortunately, Hengyu took the lead and acquired Tangren Film and Television, the capital of Shanghai, and merged Cai Yunong and her production team.

Also coming with him are Tang Ren's brother and sister, Hu Ge, Liu Shishi, Yuan Hong and other third-tier stars.

Just as Teng Xun made some moves, his rival Ali couldn't sit still either.

Alibaba Pictures Group held a press conference within two days, announcing the project of five films and investment in three films.

The first of the five films he has directed is "Pancake Man", directed and acted by Dapeng, starring Liu Yan, Yuan Shanshan and Yue Yunpeng.

The second film "Unbelievable" is directed by Sun Zhou and stars Bao Qiang, Xiao Shenyang and Dapeng.

The third film "The Ferryman" is produced by Wang Jiawei and directed by Zhang Jiajia. It stars the best actors Liang Chaowei, Jin Chengwu, singer Chen Yixun, and Yang Ying, one of the four young actresses.

The third film "Dream Partner" is directed by a Smecta director and stars Aaron Kwok, Bai Baihe, Yang Ying and Yao Chen.

The fourth film, "A Coquettish Woman Has the Best Life," is directed by Hong Kong's Pang Haoxiang and stars Zhou Gongzi, Huang Xiaoming, and Xie Yilin.

The fifth film "Ace" is directed by Yuan Liao and stars Lin Chiling, Leung Ka Hui, Chung Xintong, Su Jin and Zheng Zeshi.

At the press conference, Chairman Fan Luyuan was high-spirited, holding high the banner of the International Film and Television Group and blowing Alibaba Pictures into a frenzy, just saying that they are the number one Chinese-speaking company.

Whether it is the number one Chinese-speaking film or not, colleagues are not concerned. Everyone is just shocked by the generosity of Alibaba Pictures.

Goodfellas has become a blockbuster without a hit. The main creative lineup of the five films includes star artists from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places.

Fang Ziheng also saw the five new films for the first time and just smiled without making any comments.

Alibaba Pictures has nothing to fear as long as Zhang Qiang is not at the helm!

March 20th.

One-third of Jin Ling's scenes were filmed, and the crew was on holiday.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Fang Ziheng took several movie creators and boarded a plane to the imperial capital.

There are several things that need to be dealt with when I go back this time.

The first thing: "Tang Detective 2" broke the 2 billion shackles, and the group is preparing to celebrate with a banquet.

As a film producer and producer, he had to stand on stage in person to receive all the guests who came to support him.

Well, there’s also pretense!

The second thing: Hengyu Interactive Entertainment went public in early April.

After listing, a blockbuster movie is needed to stimulate the stock. The group currently has two movies completed.

"Xiu Chun Dao 2"

"Youth Campus 2"

The distribution department was a little unsure and didn't know who to take the lead first, so they asked Fang Ziheng for instructions on the report and asked him to decide.

The third thing: "Wolf Warrior" written and directed by Wu Jing has been fully prepared and will be launched soon.

Wu Jing has a new idea and plans to turn "Wolf Warrior" into a 3D military action film, which will require increased investment.

After discussions between the film business department and the production department, they believed that the investment in "Wolf Warrior" itself was as high as 300 million, and making it into 3D would require an additional investment of at least 60 million to 80 million, which is not worth the gain.

Wu Jing did not give up. He called Fang Ziheng and asked for his support as the chairman.

The fourth thing: "Operation Mekong" is officially launched. Hengyu needs to discuss the specific investment details with Bona, and at the same time control the director, producer, producer and starring candidates.

Yu Dong was very anxious on the phone and asked Fang Ziheng to go back as soon as possible, hoping that "Operation Mekong" would be started immediately.

The fifth thing: The expanded film meeting will be held the day after tomorrow, and the leader of the propaganda department named Fang Ziheng to attend.

The sixth thing: Da Tiantian is about to join the Warring States Period directed by Lao Mouzi. The beauty misses her lover and asks him to return to the imperial capital.

There was also the little girl Song Yi who also issued an order to recover the public rations and threatened him to come to Jinling to visit the class if he didn't go back.

At 12 noon, the plane landed at the Imperial Capital International Airport.

Fang Zhongxin drove a black Maybach to pick him up at the airport, and Xu Zheng, Liu Tao, Hu Ge, and Zhang Yu were also picked up by their agents.

"CITIC, please reply to Shilou first."

After getting in the car, Fang Ziheng made an explanation.

The car sped all the way back to the duplex. When he got home, he washed off all the dust, turned off his cell phone and went back to sleep.

It wasn't until five o'clock in the evening that he woke up with a yawn.

He is so tired these days!

There was a ping-ping-pong-pong sound from downstairs, someone was cooking.

No, someone is tearing down my kitchen.

Fang Ziheng heard that the voice was wrong and quickly got up and went downstairs.

in the kitchen.

Song Yi was wearing white casual clothes, frowning, looking at the ingredients scattered on the ground at her feet.

She had the key to the duplex building and rushed over after Fang Ziheng fell asleep, preparing to cook a love dinner to welcome her lover.

It's a pity that the little girl has no fingers in the spring water. It's okay to be a beginner. She can control the kitchen by cooking by herself.

"What's wrong?"

Fang Ziheng appeared outside the kitchen and asked softly.

"The vegetables are spilled."

Song Yi turned around and was overjoyed to see her lover. Then she raised her mouth and pointed at the cut tomatoes on the ground and said sadly.

"Who made you so stupid?"

Fang Ziheng stretched out his hand and pulled the little girl out who didn't know where to go.

"I see you are too tired. I want to cook a meal for you myself. Who knows?"

Song Yi threw herself into his arms, arching her little head and making a soft sound.

Fang Ziheng smiled, rubbed her hair, and joked: "Just tomatoes?"

"No, I also bought fish, ribs, and several other dishes."

"Where's the iron? There's no iron for me to eat."

"What iron?"

Song Yi raised his head in confusion, not understanding.

"My iron man."

Facing the beauty's puzzled gaze, Fang Ziheng lowered his head and kissed her, then hugged the beauty to the sofa in the living room.

Woo woo

More than an hour later.

Song Yi softly went upstairs to take a shower.

Fang Ziheng hummed in high spirits and walked into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

The strategy of going back to sleep is correct, recharge your batteries, and your combat effectiveness will soar!

eight pm.

Just after finishing their meal, Liu Qianqian, Lin Feifei, and Andy came over to kill them. They made a mahjong appointment with Song Yi.

The young lady looked at Fang Ziheng with something wrong. There was a bit of mischief in her eyes, as if she was saying, 'She must be funny, she came here two hours late. ’

Fang Ziheng was one of the thick-skinned ones, watching the battle as if nothing happened, acting as a dog-headed strategist for the young lady.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the girls were still very energetic.

He knew there would be no drama tonight, so he gave up his thoughts of double kills, triple kills, and quadruple kills, and went upstairs to go to bed early.

In a daze.

A warm body came up and touched it, feeling that it smelled like a young lady.

………

The next day.

Fang Ziheng woke up and did morning exercises.

At around eight o'clock, I got up under the admiring eyes of the young lady. After washing, I went to Hengyu Building.

Office of the Chairman.

Fang Ziheng was writing quietly when the new secretary Fang Rou came in with a stack of documents and greeted him solemnly.

"Good morning, Chairman."

"Xiaorou, are you still used to working?"

"I'm quite used to it, thank you, Chairman."

Just when Fang Ziheng wanted to ask more about his cousin's situation, he saw her roll her eyes and said dissatisfied: "Brother, I am not your life secretary now. Sister Andy said that one code is one code, and we must follow the rules in the company. !”

"Okay, okay, Secretary Fang." Fang Ziheng suppressed his laughter and nodded seriously.

Fang Rou raised her chin proudly, then put the documents on his desk. While sorting the documents, she said softly: "Brother, are you going back to the palace today?"

She received news from Zeng Li and knew that her cousin stayed in the duplex overnight last night, so she was going to ask Zeng Li and Xiao Yueyue.

After being with Zeng Li for a year, the two had a close relationship, which was even better than her previous relationship with Liu Qianqian.

"I'll answer you tomorrow, Secretary Fang, what did you call me?"

Fang Ziheng said half of his words, his face was stern, and he stared at his cousin who slapped himself in the face.

Fang Rou: "."

I was wrong, brother!

She smiled and said coquettishly: "Oh, brother, please be more patient. I have just taken office and I am not used to the role of a serious secretary yet."

"By the way, Director Wu Jing is here and waiting for you outside."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Please invite him quickly."

Fang Ziheng was stunned, glared at this unreliable secretary, and waved her to go out and invite someone first.

Not a moment.

Wu Jing strode into the office, holding a production plan for "Wolf Warrior" in his hand.

"Good morning, director."

"Brother Jing, why are you here so early?"

Fang Ziheng put down the pen in his hand, stood up and invited Wu Jing to take a seat in the sofa area. He personally made two cups of tea and brought it over.

Wu Jingze took out a cigarette and handed it over to Fang Ziheng to light it. One of them served the tea and the other passed the cigarette. They had a tacit understanding.

After a burst of smoke filled the air, Fang Ziheng opened a window and asked straight to the point: "Brother Jing, what did the Southeast Military Region say?"

Whether "Wolf Warrior" is 3D or not, for him as a producer, it doesn't matter as long as he invests more money.

Moreover, Bona bought half of the guaranteed issuance and would not lose money anyway.

What he really values ​​​​is the support of the Southeast Military Region, another investor, and the sequel to "Wolf Warrior". These two are the big ones.

"All preparations for the movie have been completed, and the Southeast Military Region fully supports the filming, including a series of weapons and ammunition for the troops such as fighter jets, WZ-10s, new tanks, etc."

When he got down to business, Wu Jing looked solemn, straightened his back and responded loudly.

Fang Ziheng was thoughtful, then looked at Wu Jing and asked: "When will the film be turned on? Is the heroine confirmed?"

"It's not confirmed yet, I want Sissi to play the role of Long Xiaoyun!" Wu Jing blurted out without even thinking about it.

"She's not good enough, her acting skills and image aren't enough!"

Fang Ziheng waved his hand and rejected the young lady's 5 billion box office income for a single film.

Although the young lady played the role of Ning Ruoshui in "Edge of Tomorrow" and has a good military atmosphere, the role of Long Xiaoyun is the squadron leader of the Wolf Warriors, and she will have a role that is not weaker than that of Wu Jing in the subsequent third film.

The acting skills of the young lady really cannot support the role of Long Xiaoyun.

After thinking about it, Fang Ziheng gave a suggestion: "Brother Jing, it's best to find an actress over thirty years old for the role of Long Xiaoyun. She doesn't have to be too beautiful. The key is to have the wild beauty of a female special operations team member."

"I think Yu Nan is very suitable for her. Aren't you and her good friends? Why don't you give her a hand!"

After saying that, he winked at Wu Jing and showed a wicked smile.

"Yu Nan..."

Wu Jing was startled, and when he saw Fang Ziheng's evil smile, he waved his hand quickly: "Director, don't talk nonsense. Yu Nan and I are just friends, there's really nothing else."

Immediately, he scratched the back of his head and thought about the compatibility between Long Xiaoyun and Yu Nan.

Not to mention, after being reminded by Fang Ziheng, Wu Jing really felt that Yu Nan was suitable to play the role of Long Xiaoyun, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought it was possible.

"Okay, it's just Yu Nan. I'll contact her later for the audition to set the makeup."

Wu Jingding nodded and made the final decision.

Then, he also showed a wicked smile and said to Fang Ziheng: "Director, I sent an invitation to Sissi before I came here, and she replied that she was willing to play the role of Long Xiaoyun. I don't care about her, you can handle it yourself."

Fang Ziheng: "."

Damn it, you’re digging a hole for me here!

Fang Ziheng was drunk and glared at Wu Jing. He was such a bitch. He didn't tell him earlier.

A picture emerged in his mind.

"Wolf Warrior" sold 1 billion, and "Wolf Warrior 2" sold 5 billion.

At the celebration banquet, Yu Nan was the most eye-catching actress that night, and was chosen by Fang Ziheng's brother Wu Jing as the heroine of the third film.

The young lady watched blankly in the audience, her lungs bursting with anger. She tortured him when he went home in the evening and asked him why he wouldn't let her appear in the "Wolf Warrior" series.

Scared to death.

Fang Ziheng quickly put aside the scene of seeking death, returned to the theme, and said solemnly: "As for making it a 3D movie, my opinion is to reduce some of the production funds and control the total cost at around 320 million."

"320 million!"

"Yes, the initial shooting cost is 250 to 270 million, and the post-production conversion cost is 50 to 70 million."

Dear singles, I wish you a happy 520 and be single!
