China Entertainment started from Nortel 96

Chapter 148 "Each has a ghost"

Some women look old, and they don't feel youthful at their youthful age.

Mei Ting belongs to this category.

This makes it possible for her to play a pair of lovers in "Red Lover" in her 20s and Zhang Guorong, who is in her 40s, without any sense of disobedience.

Of course, this is also related to Zhang Guorong's ageless appearance.

narrowed the age gap between them.

In the entertainment industry, Mei Ting's appearance is not amazing, at most he can only be regarded as handsome, but he is full of temperament.

Some people in the circle like this look.

Seeing her holding Ye Sandai's arm more intimately, Qi Wei couldn't help but wonder about their relationship.

Definitely not your average friendship.

Qi Wei has no interest in her, and has nothing to talk about with her.

Simply chatted with her a few words, and chatted more with Leslie Cheung.

"Are you free after the movie tonight? I have been in Beijing for a week, and I haven't played a game of mahjong. My hands are a little itchy." Zhang Guorong asked with a smile while doing mahjong.

When they were in Hong Kong City, Qi Wei and Princess Zhang Guorong played more than one game of mahjong.

Every time Qi Wei loses more and wins less.

After all, what Qi Wei plays mahjong is not skill, but human sophistication.

But for Zhang Guorong and the others, it was hard to find someone who was better at playing mahjong than themselves, but they were so happy that they would "bully" when they got the chance.

They all want to find a sense of accomplishment in Qi Wei.

Qi Wei didn't mind, he still liked playing mahjong with them.

But….
"I'm busy at night, you know..."

Qi Wei made a gesture of raising his eyebrows to hint, and said with a hey smile.

Zhang Guorong instantly understood what Qi Wei meant.

Not far away, I saw a few girls from Class 96 of the Chinese Opera who were absent-mindedly chatting, casting loving glances at Qi Wei from time to time.

Then think of Qi Wei's daily gossip and gossip.

I know that Qi Wei is a master who treats emotional restlessness.

He shook his head lightly, patted Qi Wei on the shoulder, and said earnestly in the tone of a big brother: "Women, it's not that the more the better, just find one who treats you sincerely, why bother with so many debts?" ?”

Qi Wei sneered, and replied in a low voice indifferently: "I understand what you mean, but there is an old saying that a woman is like a dress, I have to try a few more to know which one fits, besides, you If you have the conditions, who wouldn't want to buy a few more suitable and beautiful clothes to wear."

"Hehe." Leslie Cheung snorted coldly and said: "Sentimentality hurts the body, if you go on like this, one day you will become a cow that plows the fields and dies, and the cause you plant today will taste the bitter fruit tomorrow... ..."

"Whether it is bitter or sweet, I can't tell. Tomorrow's affairs will be discussed tomorrow. I have to enjoy the present."

"Woman, it's nothing interesting."

"Zi are not fish, know the joy of fish."

"… .."

When Qi Wei and Zhang Guorong were about to debate, another distinguished guest came to the premiere.

"You boy, here you are."

A familiar and hearty voice suddenly sounded, Qi Wei turned his head and saw Jiang Wen walking towards him.

"Director Jiang, you're here too."

Qi Wei was a little surprised, and greeted him with a smile on his face again.

"Ye Dao and Mei Ting, you are here too."

Jiang Wen was also a little surprised.

The Beijing circle is not a big circle, and you can see old acquaintances everywhere you go.

Ye Sandai and Jiang Wen have known each other for a long time.

The TV series "Northern Story" that Mei Ting took on when she was a freshman in Chinese opera was written by Jiang Wen.

This play is actually Ye Sandai's care for Mei Ting, who recommended Mei Ting to the crew of "Northern Story".

Unexpectedly, this play put Mei Ting in a dilemma, and in the end he had no choice but to drop out of the play.

Freshmen, freshmen and sophomores are not allowed to go out to film. This kind of regulation is not only enforced by Chinese opera, but also by Nortel.

But this kind of regulation actually has a premise, that is, freshmen, freshmen and sophomores are not allowed to go out to film if the school does not allow it.

With the permission of the school, you can go out and film.

Compared with Chinese opera, Nortel is more reasonable in this regard. Freshmen and sophomores have the opportunity to become famous in acting, and the school will only encourage it and not hinder it.

As for Chinese drama...
You should know that "Northern Stories" is a play written by Jiang Wen. He is an outstanding alumnus of Chinese opera and has a lot of connections in Chinese opera.

His invitation should be said to be able to obtain the consent of the Central Academy of Drama.

It never occurred to me that it would become a problem in the end.

I don't know if anyone among them is abusing their authority.

If he wants to make "Northern Story", Mei Ting has to drop out of school, but if he doesn't make "Northern Story", Mei Ting has to pay liquidated damages.

Of course, with Ye Sandai around, the matter of liquidated damages can be easily resolved.

Mei Ting finally chose to drop out of Chinese opera because she was reluctant to part with this opportunity.

Mei Ting was admitted to Chinese opera after she participated in the work.

She was 21 years old when she was admitted to the Chinese opera. If she had followed the requirements of the Chinese opera and studied in school for two years, she would be 23 years old when she took the stage again in her junior year.

You must know that the golden age of filming for actresses is much shorter than that of male actors. At this time, there is no such serious makeup and filters as later generations, and there is no way to play girls in their teens and 40s at the age of 20 or [-] like later generations.

Although some of them are not suitable for acting without girlishness, but at least they have the resources to play the leading role.

At this time, the vast majority of actresses can only have the opportunity to play the leading role in the golden age before the age of 30. After the age of 30, if they do not have enough fame, they can only play supporting roles.

There are too few late bloomers, and it is the last word for actresses to become famous as soon as possible.

When Mei Ting took the Chinese opera exam, besides wanting to learn how to perform systematically, the more important reason was that he took a fancy to the resources of Chinese opera.

The school's resources are still very important, and Qi Wei can empathize with this.

Dropping out means losing the school's resources, which is also where Mei Ting is in trouble.

But her relationship with Ye Sandai enabled her to possess the resources of Ye Sandai, and also gave her to rely on.

It made her choose to drop out of Chinese opera in the dilemma.

The broadcast of "Northern Story" hardly caused any splashes, and it did not add much to her film and television career.

This is not to make up for her, Ye Sandai gave her the opportunity to play with Zhang Guorong in "The Red Lover".

Whether it's good luck or bad luck, no one can say for sure, but at least now she definitely doesn't regret it.

Although he has collaborated with Mei Ting in a play, Jiang Wen has a mediocre relationship with him.

After a few polite words with Ye Sandai and the others, he began to question Qi Weilai.

"With your tone, do you welcome me to the premiere of your movie?"

"How come, I welcome you." Qi Wei replied with a smile.

"It's insincere, otherwise you wouldn't have sent me an invitation letter."

"Isn't it because I know you're filming "The Devil Is Coming"? You're so busy, how can I bother you?"

"No matter how busy you are, there is still time to attend a premiere and watch a movie."

"Then can I make up the invitation letter for you now?"

"No."

"Then what do you think, you didn't come here to ask for a crime, did you?"

"Can't you cheer for your movie?"

Qi Wei shook his head with a smile, "It's not that simple, you are the master of the Three Treasures Hall for everything."

Jiang Wen laughed loudly, put his arms around Qi Wei's neck and said intimately: "You still know me well, you are indeed my brother."

"Don't get too close, we've only met a few times in total." Qi Wei replied with a smile, and didn't stop Jiang Wen's enthusiasm.

"Feelings have nothing to do with how many times we meet. I have always regarded you as a bosom friend."

Qi Wei roughly understood Jiang Wen's meaning, laughed twice, and asked knowingly: "Tell me, what do you need to ask me?"

"Hey, all my sisters are here. I'll go over to say hello first." Upon hearing Qi Wei and the others talk about business, Mei Ting found a reason to leave, and then went to her sister's place to start talking about sisterhood. Come.

"It's like this. My movie is still short of investment. Can you give me some investment?"

Sure enough, it really attracted investment for the drama "The Devil Is Coming".

This is a tiankeng, even if Jiang Wen and Qi Wei are killed, they will not vote.

So Qi Wei asked: "I remember that Huayi Brothers invested 500 million yuan in this movie for you, and you also pulled in several million yuan from other places, which is more than 2000 million yuan in investment. Why is it not enough?"

Jiang Wen smiled awkwardly, and replied: "It's not enough, just a little bit worse."

"How much worse?" Qi Wei said in a good voice.

"It's probably sixty-seven million short." Jiang Wen estimated.

"I think it must be 1000 million."

"Of course, the more investment, the better. Why are you willing to invest in me? I knew I didn't make this trip in vain."

"No, don't be sentimental, I won't invest in you."

"Don't be so stingy. I heard that you made a fortune during the financial crisis. You are worth over 1000 million. I don't want 600 million of you. You can just invest [-] million or [-] million at will. Saving a little is enough." Jiang Wen said cheekily.

As the master who spends other people's money to achieve himself, can you still save?

Qi Wei didn't believe it!

Qi Wei remembers that when Jiang Wen's "The Devil Is Coming" was established, it was done within a budget of 1000 million.

His Virgo "Sunny Day" has achieved a domestic box office of more than 5000 million, and it is still the box office champion of mainland films since the film reform in 93.

If "Sunny Day" is used as the standard, "The Devil Is Coming" has a budget of 1000 million, which is definitely profitable.

This is also the reason why Huayi Brothers invested 1000 million in Jiang Wen so simply.

The Huayi Brothers are still too young, it doesn't feel right for Jiang Wen to pat.

The shooting is less than half, and the money is almost spent.

So Jiang Wen asked Huayi Brothers for it again.

The Huayi Brothers had already fallen into the pit, and they had no choice but to invest another 500 million in Jiang Wen's movie, and then they found friends to invest several million in Jiang Wen's movie.

But I continued to pat and pat, and when there was about a third of the money left, the money was almost spent again.

Brother Huayi is unwilling to invest anymore, and it happened that he read the news and knew that Qi Wei had made a lot of money in the financial crisis, so he had no choice but to pay attention to Qi Wei.

"I don't know where you got the news. During the financial crisis, I made a small profit. I just drank some soup with other people's buttocks. How can I be worth more than [-] million yuan?"

Seeing that Qi Wei seemed unwilling to invest, Jiang Wen quickly persuaded:
"I know your concerns. My movie will cost 3000 million with a few million more investment. I admit that I can't recover the cost in China, but don't worry, I'm going to go to Cannes for this movie. Those who strive to win prizes, plus the income from abroad will definitely be able to recoup their capital, and will never let you lose money."

Now the domestic film market is at its lowest ebb. In such a market environment, whether it is a large investment or a low-cost film, it is difficult to recover the cost only by relying on the mainland market.

Few of them can recover their costs by relying on the mainland market alone, and even fewer make money.

This also shows how rare and valuable "Party A and Party B" is.

Many mainland filmmakers aim at overseas markets when they make films.It is intended to rely on overseas markets to recover costs.

It is also invested by this fool.

After all, the U.S. dollar is still U.S. dollars at this time, and if you run an award overseas and make a name, you can sell it for tens of millions of dollars.

It is easy to recover the cost.

But in order for mainland movies to be sold overseas, they have to make something that those people like to hear and see.

Criticize something or expose something.

This is not in line with the correct domestic values.

Especially now that we are in the critical period of bidding for the Olympic Games again.

Jiang Wen's "The Devil Is Coming" was indeed well filmed, but his stance was wrong, and he deserved to be banned in later generations.

Knowing that he would be banned, Qi Wei naturally wouldn't invest, not even a penny.

But it seems too unreasonable to directly refuse, and it seems not very good.

After thinking for a while, Qi Wei said:

"Your movie is not short of investment, why did you find me?"

"It was because of lack of investment that I found you."

Qi Wei smiled and shook his head, and said: "I remember that the main investor in your film is Huayi Brothers, they are rich and powerful, they have already invested 500 million in you, and they definitely don't care about investing a few more million. "

Jiang Wen showed a rather helpless expression and shook her head.

"Even if they don't want to invest, it's impossible for them to let the investment money go to waste, and you make movies to keep improving, most of the money is spent on film, and it's not doing things that hurt others and enrich yourself If you understand it with reason and move it with emotion, they will definitely invest in you."

Seeing Qi Wei glance at Ye Sandai beside him, Jiang Wen immediately understood what Qi Wei meant.

Isn't the "Red Lover" shot by Ye Sandai a living example?Isn't it also the continuous increase in investment that finally pulled the cost to 3000 million?
It doesn't seem to be a problem to find someone to squeeze the wool.

What Qi Wei said made sense, which made Jiang Wen draw Huayi Brothers' attention again.

But in the final analysis, Qi Wei was unwilling to invest, which made Jiang Wen question Qi Wei with some dissatisfaction:

"Are you not optimistic about my movie, so you don't want to invest in my movie?"

"How could it be, I really liked the "Sunny Day" you made, and I also believe that the movie you are making now is also a good movie, but I don't like to win people's love, so I can't help it. "

Jiang Wen hehe twice expressing his disbelief.

Qi Wei continued with a smile: "I really like your movie, otherwise, my film and television company is also doing publicity and distribution. Once your movie is finished, I can help you do domestic publicity." Fa, what do you think?"

"This is what you said, and that's what you say."

"It's a word."

"It really is my good brother, hahaha."

Qi Wei's promise turned Jiang Wen's worry into joy, and hearty laughter rang out again.

The movie "Love in the Internet Age" is just a small-budget movie of less than 300 million yuan, and it can be done with a publicity fee of less than one million yuan, while Jiang Wen's "The Devil Is Coming" is a movie with a big investment of more than 3000 million yuan , At the very least, it will cost millions of publicity fees.

Under the current film market conditions, not many film and television companies are willing to bear the cost of publicity and distribution.

Because it's not a good deal.

Of course, Qi Wei will definitely not make uneconomical deals.

I'll help you make announcements in China, at least your movie must pass the review.

How can you talk about announcing a movie that cannot be released in China?

Qi Wei just gave him a blank check.

The sisters have not seen each other for a long time, and Mei Ting chatted happily with the classmates of class 96.

"Wow, Mei Ting, your sunglasses are from CK, right?" Zhang Ziyi recognized the brand of sunglasses hanging on Mei Ting, and asked enviously.

"That's right, Zhang Guorong gave it to me when I was filming." Mei Ting replied with a smile.

"Wow, you can film with Zhang Guorong, I really envy you." Zhang Ziyi's jealousy was beyond words.

"There's nothing to be envious of. You're about to make a director Zhang's scene, and you're still the heroine. You'll be famous in a short time."

"But no one gave me CK sunglasses."

"How much is a pair of sunglasses worth? I think the bracelet on Zhang Tong's hand is worth more."

Then Mei Ting took Zhang Tong's hand and asked with a smile, "Who gave this to you? Is it your boyfriend?"

Zhang Tong blushed a little, nodded, and looked tenderly at Qi Wei who was not far away.

"Cartier's, tens of thousands of bracelets, he is so kind to you."

Hu Jing on the side pouted a little dissatisfied.

Yuan Quan's eyes flickered a little bit dodgingly, trying not to look at Qi Wei as much as possible, but he couldn't bear it anymore, and would always sneak a few glances.

There is another person who can't help but look at Qi Weilai all the time, with a complicated look on his face.

The premiere hadn't even started yet, and cheering guests were still arriving one after another, and some people were already sitting on chairs and chatting.

It's like a pair of sisters who look alike.

Both are busy with their own careers, Li Xue and his sister Li Bingbing haven't seen each other for a while.

When they met again, Li Xue changed drastically, as if she had changed into a different person, which surprised Li Bingbing.

Dressed in the professional attire of a successful urban woman, her face is always radiant with confidence, making her look very shrewd and capable.

I can't see the appearance of the submissive little reporter back then.

While the temperament is refined, there is a charming style at the same time, with the charm of a mature woman.

At this moment, his face is full of peach blossoms.

It seems that it has just been watered recently.

Based on his understanding of his sister, Li Bingbing instantly understood something.

After reminiscing about the sisterhood, Li Bingbing asked: "Sister, you don't know how to fall in love, do you?"

"Sister, I'm so busy at work, how can I have time to fall in love?"

"I'm your own sister, can your affairs escape my eyes?"

She also thought of Qi Wei being mentioned a lot in her sister's words, and she asked again with adoring love.

"Could it be your boss Qi Wei?"

Faced with his sister's questioning, Li Xue was a little shy, and thought of what Gu Zuoyan said, "Sister, my company will have several film and television projects next year, and I will help you fight for resources."

"Thank you, but I don't want my sister to betray her lust for me."

"What, it's not what you said, I really like him."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Li Xue knew that she was being tricked by her sister, so she quickly shut her mouth.

"So you had a relationship with your boss?" Li Bingbing asked again.

"Sister, I won't talk about him." Li Xue replied.

"You turned your elbows out before you got married, and you like him that much?"

Li Bingbing shook his head again and said, "He is not a good choice, he has so many gossips."

Li Xue knew better than her sister that most of the gossip and scandals were true, so she became a little depressed, but soon smiled again.

"I am willing." She said seriously.

Li Bingbing was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but look at his sister.

Just from this tens of thousands of clothes, it can be seen how good Qi Wei treats her.

She can only make tens of thousands of yuan for a movie now, which is not as good as her younger sister's outfit.

Then he looked at Qi Wei in the distance.

And Qi Wei had finished chatting with Jiang Wen and the others, and was chatting with a big man.

The big man looked familiar to her, and she quickly recognized Han Sanping from Beijing Film Studio.

"Hiss!" She couldn't help taking a breath.

In my mind, I remembered what my manager Wang Jinghua often said to her on weekdays.

"If you want good resources, you just need to please him."

After careful consideration, I seem to have made a decision in my heart.

So he said with emotion: "It seems that you really like him, but you have so many competitors, this is not an easy task, do you want my sister to help you?"

Li Xue looked at her sister with a face full of disbelief, "Sister, do you know what you are going to say?"

"I think you should be very clear about his private life. It's better to be cheaper than your own sister if you are cheaper to outsiders. Don't we have more opportunities if we sisters are of the same mind?"

Li Xue became silent, but quickly shook her head again.

With her own sister, it was really hard for her to accept it for a short time.

Li Bingbing didn't take it seriously, the younger sister didn't refuse to explain that there was something going on, she asked with a smile: "Sister, is he very good at that aspect? Seeing your happy face, you can see that you have been fully nourished."

"Sister, can you say such a thing?"

"My sister has nothing to say, find a chance to let my sister try it too, don't worry, my sister will not rob you of a man, just to help you."

In the forest where Qi Wei has feelings, only Mr. Zhou came to the movie premiere.

She scoured the scene and soon found a good target
A very pretty girl with a flirtatious face.

"Did the beautiful young lady come here alone? You look familiar, oh, I remembered, have you ever filmed Qiong Yao's "My Fair Princess"?" Mr. Zhou approached and asked.

Seeing that it was a woman who struck up a conversation with her, the girl relaxed her vigilance, and replied with a smile: "It's just playing a maid."

"It's not uncommon for a maid to be prettier than a young lady. I think Qiong Yao is blind. It's obvious that you are more suitable to play the leading role."

This made the girl very happy, and she didn't mind Mr. Zhou sitting next to her.

She looked at Mr. Zhou for a while, and suddenly said: "I remember you, you seem to have filmed Qi Wei's MV."

"Yes, my name is Zhou Xun."

"My name is Fan Xiaopang."

Then the girl asked again: "You seem to have shot more than one of Qi Wei's MV, do you have a good relationship with him?"

"Of course, I'm his close buddy." Mr. Zhou replied with a smile.

The girl looked thoughtful, and after a moment of silence, she broke away and said, "Can you introduce me? I have something important to ask him..."

"There's no problem with that." Mr. Zhou replied holding her hand.
