There is a bar in Houhai

Chapter 133 Supporting Role (10-9)

After the rain in the early spring, Houhai was a little turbid, but the weeping willows washed by the rain were extremely green. The sky was no longer as cloudy as it was a few days ago, and Shen Fang's mood that had been suppressed for a day became clearer.

The bar has already opened for business, and there is a rumor from Shen Fang that if you invite a song, you must come to the bar to sing live for a week. Now there are far fewer singers and managers who come to try their luck.Li Xia of the Loft Band asked for leave. She specially found a vocal teacher for training, and she was preparing to participate in the audition for the new season of "The Voice of China". Only by wrestling can we find the right direction to move forward.Although Li Xia is not there, there are a few more resident singers in the bar. Many underground singers in Yanjing City, Ning Yan, do not want money, but they also come here to look for an opportunity, because there is a big guy hidden here.Shen Fang didn't defraud them either, and paid them according to the cost of walking acupuncture points, and sometimes he would guide a few times when he encountered a good seedling.

"Is anyone here?" Shen Fang asked Fang Yuan.

"It has been arranged in the box on the second floor. I have given a bottle of 92-year-old bourbon and two glasses of cocktails." After taking over from Shen Fang, the innermost box on the second floor is basically closed to the public, and it is only used to greet some of Shen Fang. Guests, such as Niu Hao, Liang Hui, etc., will go directly to that box when they arrive.

"For the few people brought by this old man, one bottle of wine is not enough. Do I still have the 1-year-old wine?" Shen Fang asked.

"There are still ten bottles of the 85, and five boxes of 88 bottles of the 30."

"Give me a bottle of 85 years old. Save the 88 years old, and I will rely on it to support the market in two years." Shen Fang took the wine handed over by Fang Yuan, and couldn't help sighing: "Oh! It's so depressing, Since returning to China, this wine has become less and less enough to drink.”

"There are too many people drinking on your side." Fang Yuan couldn't help laughing when he heard Shen Fang's complaints.

"That's right. Next time, keep the empty bottles and fill them with new wine. Anyway, like Wang Xiaocong and the others, they won't be able to taste it." Shen Fang said jokingly.

Shen Fang came to the upstairs box, and there were six people sitting in it, four men and two women.Among the four men, two old men are Tian Zhuang and Zheng Xiaolong, and the other is Wen Muye and a tall, slightly fat, middle-aged man with a sense of elegance; one of the two women is the actor Jiang Wenli And a 20-year-old girl with a round face, a short stature, a plump figure, and a pair of big eyes looking around at several people.

"Hey, here we come. It's not easy to see you kid. I made an appointment by calling in advance, and then we old guys have to wait here for a long time." As soon as Tian Zhuang said the words, several people in the box were shocked. Laughed.

"Uncle Tian, ​​you can't wrong people. You made a phone call, so I came here in a hurry. I also brought you a bottle of good wine, which is an apology." What the old man meant by this He was very clear, he knew this was to give him a chance to explain, so as not to offend others, Shen Fang hurriedly greeted them, "Mr. Zheng, Mr. Jiang, Mu Ye, hello, you've been neglecting me. Who are these two?" "

"Hey, you are really willing to give up the wine from 85. Old Zheng, put that down and let's drink this. Who would eat coarse grains when there are good noodles and steamed buns?" Tian Zhuang helped introduce. "This is Xu Haofeng, a teacher from our school, and this girl is Xiaojiang's niece, Ma Shichun."

"Mr. Xu, hello. Welcome. I heard Mu Ye mentioned you earlier. The "Grandmaster" filmed by Xiangjiang Wang Jiawei is your screenwriter. I have admired you for a long time." Shen Fang first extended his hand to Xu Haofeng, who was visiting for the first time. .

"Where, where, I have long admired Boss Shen. I heard Mu Ye and Xiaoxiao mentioned you many times." Xu Haofeng quickly grabbed Shen Fang's outstretched hand and replied.

"Hello, I'm Ma Shichun." The little girl sitting next to Jiang Wenli stood up directly and stretched out her hand to Shen Fang.

"Hello. I'm Shen Fang, don't worry about Fang." Shen Fang gave a light grip and then let go.The girl in front of her was looking at Shen Fang full of inquiry.

"Hey, it's called free now. How did I hear that you introduced yourself as free in Shanghai." Tian Zhuang said with a curled lip.

"It's true that good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. I didn't expect such a small thing in Shanghai to reach your old ears." Shen Fang said helplessly.

"Hehe, you are so angry that you are a beauty. You are tougher than your father. Old Zheng, you don't know that this kid has brought down a company with hundreds of millions of assets for a girl." Zheng Xiaolong and the others explained with puzzled faces, and Ma Shichun's eyes became brighter.

"It's not my fault, it's just their company's irregularities." Shen Fang explained what happened that day with a wry smile. It seems that his notoriety has already spread in the circle.

"Where's your little girlfriend? I heard that she's also a film and television actor. Is she in Yanjing? Call me over and get to know everyone."

"She had a fever yesterday, and she just came back from the hospital in the morning." Shen Fang explained: "I will treat everyone to dinner tonight, and then I will call her up and let everyone get to know her. If there is a suitable role, please help her."

"Hehe." Jiang Wenli covered her mouth and chuckled lightly: "Boss Shen still needs to go outside to find resources. We came here today to ask you for resources."

"Teacher Jiang, don't be so polite. You can call me Shen Fang or Yezi, Boss Shen can't afford it." Shen Fang quickly cupped his hands and said: "If you have any needs, just ask, as long as you can do it, it's fine. "Jiang Wenli's husband, Gu Changwei, and Tian Zhuang are classmates. He once won the Berlin Film Festival's director award for "Peacock", and he is also one of the big names in Yanying's director circle.

"Then I'll take care of you and call you Yezi, and don't call me the teacher, just call me Aunt Jiang." Jiang Wenli saw that Shen Fang was not dissatisfied, and continued: "I heard that your company has a department this year. The film adaptation of the novel is called "The Left Ear" and is going to be filmed, isn't it?"

Shen Fang looked at Ma Shichun who was sitting next to Jiang Wenli, and knew their general intentions: "Yes. I plan to shoot at the end of August. I will be the producer myself. The director is Xue Xiaolu from "Yanjing Meets Seattle." This is all There is nothing to hide from the information released to the outside world.

"Are you sure about your actors?" Jiang Wenli asked, and Ma Shichun looked at Shen Fang with hopeful eyes.

Shen Fang looked at Ma Shichun, who was sitting next to Jiang Wenli, and said, "The heroine has already been decided, she is my girlfriend Qin Mohan, and her makeup photos have been posted on the official website."

"Hehe, we know. We have also seen that Qin Mohan's appearance in school uniform is really pure, which definitely fits the prototype of the novel." Jiang Wenli found that Shen Fang had some misunderstandings: "I want to ask the female Erli, is the role confirmed? "

Shen Fang looked at Ma Shichun carefully. Originally, Shen Fang wanted to choose Yang Zi to play Li Bara, but he hadn't made up his mind yet. After all, Yang Zi's role as the well-behaved Xiaoxue in "Family with Children" is too popular.And Li Bala is a beautiful bad girl who smokes, drinks and fights, and is willing to sacrifice herself for love. A typical rebellious girl, if she chooses Yang Zi, the loss outweighs the gain.Ma Shichun's facial features are very heroic, the only shortcoming is that he is a little fat. If he is photographed by the camera, he will probably be a little fatter.

"Aunt Jiang, Shichun's appearance is quite suitable, but there are some..." Shen Fang looked at Jiang Wenli, a little hard to say, after all, it hurts to say that a girl is fat in person.

"Are you a little fat?" Ma Shichun said carelessly from the side, "It's okay, I am prone to obesity. As long as I control my diet, I can lose weight in a month."

"Well, we'll start filming in August. If you can lose weight, you'll be fine." Shen Fang looked at Jiang Wenli and said, "Aunt Jiang, why don't you play a guest role too? The role of Xu Yi's mother hasn't been determined yet."

"Okay, I'm free in August and September. I don't have anything to do. It's good to experience it with your young crew." Jiang Wenli readily agreed.

"You guys are done chatting. Yezi, I have something to discuss with you." Tian Zhuang watched as the matter between Shen Fang and Jiang Wenli came to an end.

"You always have something to tell directly, so how can you be so polite."

"The main reason is that the investment in this project is a bit large, so we need to see if there is a problem with your funds." Tian Zhuang said looking at Shen Fang with some embarrassment.

Shen Fang made a preliminary estimate of his current self, and said, "If the investment is less than 60 million, it's fine. If it exceeds 10 million, I need a month to raise funds." Shen Fang brought back one billion US dollars from the United States, which is about 40 More than [-] million yuan, the total investment of Wild Fox does not exceed [-] billion, mainly because the "Beijing Cultural Theater Company" has invested too much, and Shen Fang has continuously invested about [-] billion in the acquisition of theaters.

"Hey, you kid is so rich." Tian Zhuang said in surprise, and the rest of the people present were also shocked by Shen Fang's financial strength. Now there are not many domestic film and television companies that can come up with [-] million cash, and most of them need to invest in the stock market. , Bank fundraising.

Hearing that Shen Fang has a lot of money, Zheng Xiaolong was also very happy. He took the initiative to say: "Actually, I asked Lao Tian to bring me to see you today. We are going to cast a historical drama next year, telling the story of China's first queen mother." The story of Empress Dowager Qin Xuan."

"Ms. Zheng's "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is the annual ratings champion. It stands to reason that there should be no shortage of investment." Shen Fang was a little surprised. According to Zheng Xiaolong's status in the circle, as long as there is news of the film's project approval, investors should flock to it. Only right.

"It turns out that something happened to the investor of "The Legend of Zhen Huan." Zheng Xiaolong stretched out his index finger and pointed upwards: "The country is now stepping up anti-corruption efforts, and you don't know which funds are clean, so after the project of this drama is approved, I don’t dare to take funds randomly. Later, Lao Tian said that you can attract investment here, so I came to you to try my luck.”

"You're right to find him. This kid got all his money back in the United States, and it's definitely clean funds with traceable records." Tian Zhuangzhang said with assurance.

"Ms. Zheng, how much investment is needed for this play, you can tell me roughly, I have a plan in my heart."

"This drama is estimated to be about 80 episodes, and Sun Yao is still going to be the lead actor. I initially estimated that the investment is about 2 million yuan."

"2 million yuan." Shen calculated in his heart, and the budget was not too high based on the number of 80 episodes. "Mr. Zheng, do you think this is okay? I have accepted this project. I will call the CEO of the company, Mr. Huo, at dinner tonight and ask him to discuss with you face to face. After all, he is fully responsible for the company, and he will be responsible for the specifics of this matter." Come connect with you."

"Okay!" Zheng Xiaolong didn't expect Shen Fang to agree so readily, and happily toasted Shen Fang.
