Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 391 Inspection
.........

After half an hour.

After reading the script again, Xu Zheng agreed to play the male lead Cheng Yong.

"Director, I took the book, when will it be turned on?"

"No hurry, I have to fly to Yuzhang in a few days, you should think about the role first, and audition for other roles together when I come back."

Fang Ziheng smiled and said, not in a hurry to start shooting.

In addition to the leading actor Cheng Yong, there are several important roles in the film.

Each of these roles has its own characteristics. Due to the advance time, the actors in the original version may not be suitable, so he needs to audition in person.

"Okay, I'll go back first, waiting for the director's call."

Xu Zheng nodded, got up with the script and prepared to go home.

He knew that Fang Ziheng was very busy, and he couldn't spend a lot of time flirting with him and Ning Hao as before.

Fang Ziheng has achieved fame, standing in a very high position in the film and television industry, far away from him and Ning Hao.

Speaking of Ning Hao, I don't know how the filming of "Charlotte Annoyance" is going?

Xu Zheng put the script into his handbag and asked, "Director, Haozi's "Charlotte Annoyance" is almost finished, when is it going to be released?"

"It's coming soon, Ning Hao said that it will be finished in the middle of the month, and it is expected to be released in the Lunar New Year file."

Fang Ziheng nodded slightly, stubbed out his cigarette and got up, took out his mobile phone and dialed Wen Muye, director of the film business department.

"Charlotte Annoyance" is a comedy, and it is also the main project of this year's Hengyu Lunar New Year.

It will start in June and finish at the end of November. Five months is enough time.

"Hello, Old Wen."

"Remember, all departments will be notified tomorrow to officially prepare for "I'm Not the God of Medicine". Apart from the leading actor, we will send audition invitations to the circle for other roles in the film."

"Okay, director, when is the audition?"

"On November 11th, start early and finish early."

After saying a few words, Fang Ziheng hung up the phone and walked out of the reception room with Xu Zheng.

outside.

Many employees saw the two coming out and greeted them respectfully.

After the two left, there were whispers in the office area, and the employees were all curious about Fang Ziheng's purpose in looking for Xu Zheng alone.

11 month 5 number.

Fang Ziheng rested at home for a few days, took Lin Feifei, Liu Qianqian, Hao Yi, Sang Lin, and a group of executives from the group's production department, film business department, TV business department, and external relations department to board the plane to Yuzhang Changcheng .

This time I went to Yuzhang, the main purpose was to inspect the Hengyu film and television base under construction, and by the way, it was the early stage of "Longevity".

In the first-class cabin, Fang Ziheng, Lin Feifei, and Liu Qianqian played poker to pass the time.

Along the way, the young lady was in a very happy mood, chatting non-stop.

The last time, it was the third day of the Lunar New Year, she went on a date with her lover from Hanjiang Feichang City alone.

This time is different, but she is going to Yuzhang with Fang Ziheng and back to her lover's hometown together.

It's very sweet when I think about it, there is a feeling of an ugly daughter-in-law returning to her hometown to meet her in-laws.

Although Fang Ziheng lost his parents, the young lady's mood was completely different when she went to Yuzhang twice.

After playing cards for a while, Liu Qianqian's interest remained undiminished, and she asked the flight attendant to bring three glasses of drinks, and said with a light smile, "We're staying in Yuzhang for a few days this time, and I want to go to Mount Lushan to have a look."

"..go to Lushan, then I have to think about it"

"Oh, I guess I don't have time, I have to fly to Shencheng in a few days."

Fang Ziheng clicked his tongue and dragged his voice for a long time, trying to whet the young lady's appetite.

Hearing that he might be busy and couldn't go to Lushan Mountain, the young lady turned her pretty face and said, "Didn't you just go to Yuzhang and why did you go to Shencheng?"

"Teng Xun's Shencheng horse invited me to be a guest and talk about big business."

Fang Ziheng took a sip of his drink and said half-playfully, half-jokingly.

On the opposite side, Concubine Lin gave him a flattering look, put her arms around the young lady and stood on the same side with her, and hummed softly: "Don't trust him, Qianqian, he won't go to Shencheng, Shencheng will come to the imperial capital in a few days."

"It's all the same. I go to him to discuss business. I can't stay in Yuzhang for a few days."

Fang Ziheng rolled his eyes, put down his drink, scraped the young lady's delicate nose with his hands, and said shamelessly, "I can go if you want, how can you make it up to me?"

"Compensation? You think beautifully."

Liu Qianqian was taken aback for a moment, then gave him a coquettish look.

Unexpectedly, this guy flirted with her concubine in front of her, and even wanted to speak pornographically.

Yes, it's a yellow accent.

She knew Fang Ziheng best, and knew that as long as he answered the phone and asked what compensation he wanted, he would definitely take the opportunity to make bad demands.

Those requests are all boudoir secrets, it's too astringent.

Liu Qianqian turned her head away from Fang Ziheng, her earlobes blushed, and the more she thought about it, the more ashamed she became.

Bastard!
How can you do this!

She was shy, and Concubine Lin was not much better.

They are all a family, so she naturally understood Fang Ziheng's dirty thoughts.

immediately.

The two beauties threw away their poker cards and stopped playing with him.

Fang Ziheng is always having fun, if he doesn't play, he doesn't play, no one is afraid of anyone.

a few hours later.

The plane landed in Changcheng, and a black convoy with government licenses came to pick it up.

It was still the secretary-general of the provincial government who received Fang Ziheng and his party with a happy face.

"Fang Dong, you have worked hard all the way, welcome home!"

"The secretary-general is too polite, how can I bother you to pick him up in person."

Fang Ziheng strode forward, stretched out his hands to hold the secretary-general tightly, and shook him twice.

"It should be, I'm just not busy today."

The secretary-general smiled, then looked at Concubine Lin and Liu Qianqian, and stretched out his hand in a gentlemanly manner: "Director Lin, Miss Liu, welcome to Yuzhang. Yuzhang has beautiful scenery and hospitality. I hope you will have a good time. .”

As he said that, he stared at Sister Lin carefully, thinking in his heart that it was indeed so.

The outside world is rumored that Hengyu Media Group has a second-generation super official sitting in charge, and it seems to be this Deputy Director Lin.

"Thank you Secretary-General."

Concubine Lin smiled slightly, Sister Yu was full of breath, and led Liu Qianqian to shake hands with the secretary-general one by one, her attitude was neither too friendly nor alienated.

She came here this time only as the deputy director of Hengyu Media, following Fang Ziheng to inspect the film and television base.

After exchanging pleasantries, everyone boarded the car.

The secretary-general asked Fang Ziheng to take a car with him. In the car, his secretary detailed the construction progress of the film and television base.

The Hengyu film and television base was finally selected as the site of Sanqing Mountain in Shangrao, and a large area was designated on the side of the mountain.

At present, the first phase of the project at the foot of the mountain has been completed, the foundation is fully covered, and the second phase of the project is being prepared.

The second phase of the project is quite a lot, and hundreds of buildings will be built such as ancient cities, courtyards, palaces, streets, official residences, residential buildings, and many retro schools.

There are also more than a dozen indoor shooting booths for science fiction, fantasy, fantasy, fairy tales, and mythology.

For example, the locations of the three sets used in the filming of "Longevity".

A Taoist palace, a hall of ancient mythology, and a shooting studio will be built first in the second phase of the project.

After listening to the secretary's introduction, Fang Ziheng nodded. He had already learned about these things on the plane, and they were similar.

He smiled and said, "Secretary-General, Wanda's Director Wang, when will you arrive in Yuzhang?"

Wanda Group is also an investor in the film and television city, and Wang Jianlin flew here from Dalian at his invitation to inspect it together.

"It's almost there, there are still two hours left." The secretary-general looked at the time and said with a relaxed smile.

Fang Ziheng was not talking, nor did he ask the secretary-general why he didn't pick up the plane.

If you think about it with your toes, someone else is going to pick up the big old king, and the level is definitely not low.

The convoy traveled all the way, entered the urban area of ​​Changcheng, and finally came to the Bayi Hotel near Bayi Square.

This time, the provincial government followed Fang Ziheng's wishes and did not arrange for him to live in a guest house.

evening.

Wang Jianlin and his party arrived.

People from Hengyu and Wanda gathered together for dinner.

On the table.

Boss Wang Jianlin is very imposing. He has just ascended to the throne of the richest man in China, and he exudes a prestige that is not bad for money.

During the period, a vice-governor who received him only mentioned one thing, and Wang Jianlin agreed without hesitation to invest in ten Wanda Plazas in Yuzhang.

The total cost of ten Wanda Plazas is at least 100 billion.

The old king is real enough, very good, very good.

Fang Ziheng smiled without saying a word, listening while eating.

After the dinner, everyone was a little tired and didn't communicate much, so they went back to the room to rest.

The next day.

The huge convoy started from Changcheng and drove on the expressway to Shangrao.

Fang Ziheng, Wang Jianlin, Deputy Governor, Secretary-General, Concubine Lin, Liu Qianqian, Song Ge, Liu Ge, a group of people took a Coaster.

Fang Ziheng sat with Wang Jianlin, talking and laughing.

"Wang Dong, congratulations, this year's fortune has greatly improved."

"First, we won the world's second largest theater chain AMC and Hollywood Legendary Films, and Wanda Cinema Line became the world's largest theater chain operator in one fell swoop. You, yourself, topped the Forbes list!"

"Fang Dong praised me too much, your ranking has risen faster!"

Wang Jianlin smiled lightly, suddenly lowered his voice a little, and said, "Although the richest man is good, he is not what I want."

These words were spoken in such a low voice that no one else in the car heard them.

Fang Ziheng nodded slightly, expressing his understanding, knowing what the elder king was worried about.

The higher you stand, the more dangerous you are, and the danger may come from the outside or from the inside.

The throne of the richest man has never been a good position. It seems that the scenery is boundless, but in fact it is like walking on thin ice and trembling.

In the previous life, the old king was almost lost.

Fortunately, he sobered up quickly, a strong man broke his wrist, and intercepted Wanda Group's high-quality projects and went into battle lightly.

Because it was inconvenient to talk in the car, the two of them didn't talk about this, and instead chatted about Lao Mouzi's "Warring States".

Wang Jianlin had the idea of ​​releasing "Warring States" globally, and was a little worried about Lao Mouzi's direction.

He deliberately learned from Fang Ziheng, and asked: "Fang Dong, in your opinion, can "Warring States" achieve the grandeur of "The Great Wall"?"

"It's a little hard!"

Fang Ziheng shook his head and told the truth: "The drama "Warring States" focuses on ancient battle formations. Battle formations and grand scenes have always been Director Zhang's forte, but because the background of the story is inherently insufficient, it is difficult to resonate with overseas audiences. "

"Of course, as long as the finished film is good, don't worry that no one will watch the movie. Even if "The Great Wall" doesn't hit the box office, it can still sell A-level big Cass at the box office."

The A-level big cast he refers to specifically refers to those projects with an investment of 5000 million US dollars and a global box office sales of 1.5 million US dollars.

"Warring States" has a total investment of 3 million soft sister coins, which is equivalent to 4000 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office is at least 1.2 million.

In terms of income, Wang Jianlin is not worried. With the support of the global Wanda cinema chain, it will be very difficult for "Warring States" to lose money.

What he really wants is for "Warring States", like "The Great Wall", to hit a box office of over 3 to 4 million US dollars in one fell swoop, and once again establish the global reputation of Wanda Film and Television.

In this way, Wanda Films can take advantage of the opportunity to enter Hollywood and cooperate with the eight major Hollywood giants in an open and aboveboard manner.

Hollywood giants have always been greedy for the Chinese market.

If Wanda joins forces with Hengyu, plus the acquired Legendary Films and the friendly [-]th Century Fox, I believe it will be able to gain a firm foothold in Hollywood.

can only say.

Wang Jianlin had a good idea, but it was not practical.

Huaguo restricts foreign investment, and Hollywood restricts foreign investment, and this will never change.

For the eight giants of Hollywood, the two parties can cooperate in the global market, but if you want to enter Hollywood to grab food, then you are wrong.

After all, Legendary Pictures is only a second-rate film and television company with limited influence, so it is really difficult to shake the Big Eight.

As for Twentieth Century Fox, once Deng Wendi broke up with Murdoch, the relationship would come to an abrupt end.

Wanda Film and Television.

Perhaps it can rely on the world's largest theater chain as the cornerstone to cooperate with the eight giants to stabilize the situation for global film and television layout.

It is absolutely impossible to go into Hollywood and grab a piece of land, and turn around to overwhelm the eight giants and achieve a foreign invasion.

Fang Ziheng was very sure of this.

Thinking of this, he spoke again and reminded: "Director Wang, we can't be too wishful thinking, after all, we are outsiders and foreign-funded enterprises to Hollywood.

It’s okay to cooperate with a few movies. 21st Century, Disney, and the eight giants let us cooperate, but it is almost impossible to break into Hollywood and occupy the North American market. "

"It will be difficult for sure."

Wang Jianlin looked resolute, agreeing with Fang Ziheng's words a little bit, and then changed the subject: "However, no matter how difficult it is, Wanda has the confidence to gnaw down the bone of Hollywood."

"Besides, isn't there Dong Fang, how about you and I join forces and try the edge of the eight giants?"

Mama batch!
I knew it, big old king, you started to drift!
Fang Ziheng was dumbfounded and quite speechless.

His feelings just now were in vain, and they frankly aroused the pride in Wang Jianlin's heart.

Damn, the old king wants to go back to his previous life!

I hope that instead of going all the way through acquisitions, mergers and acquisitions, buying, buying, and buying, we will make steady progress and deepen Wanda's overseas strategic layout bit by bit.

Fang Ziheng couldn't refuse in person, so he said tactfully, "Don't be in a hurry, take your time. Next year, let's see the quality of "Warring States". If it meets expectations, then we will cooperate with another big production."

"Haha, okay, that's it!"

"Dear Fang, don't worry, the production budget is the same as that of "The Great Wall", there is no need for Hengyu to intervene."

Wang Jianlin was overjoyed immediately, and waved his hands proudly.

During this trip to Yuzhang, his main purpose was to meet and talk with Fang Ziheng, and pull him on board to fight in Hollywood together.

Secondly, it is to help Wanda Film and Television, which Song Ge is in charge of, by the way, to discuss the next step of film cooperation.

In any case, it is a pleasure to cooperate with Fang Ziheng in a movie.

The film cooperation set the tone, and Fang Ziheng gave him a lot of face.

As for going to Hollywood, there is really no rush. Without a good project, the gates of Hollywood cannot be blasted open with cannons or bullets.

Near noon, the convoy got off the highway and came to Shangrao.

The local government sent someone to pick them up. After a short rest, the group went to the city for lunch.

Continue to set off in the afternoon and arrive at Sanqing Mountain at three o'clock.

The scenery of Mount Sanqing is so beautiful that anyone who sees it will be amazed by the beauty of nature.

National 5A scenic spot, with strange peaks next to each other, beautiful and precipitous, the main peak is shining in the rosy light, and the road is full of charm.

Build a film and television base at the foot of the side mountain, which will not disturb the scenery on the mountain, but also gather popular tourists in the scenic area.

After getting off the car, the group went to the film and television base on foot, welcomed by Wang Peng, the person in charge of Hengyu Film and Television Base, and Li, the general manager of Wanda Group, who was in charge of construction.

After a few minutes.

At the foot of the mountain on the side of Sanqing Mountain, huge foundations were erected one after another.

The Liang Zhu on the foundation is draped in red and colorful, jubilant, and thousands of construction workers are working on the foundation in full swing.
