1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 361 Good Boss Huaguo, I Broke My Heart For The Artists!
To Jiang Xiaofeng's relief, despite the huge deterrent force of blockbusters such as "Ink Attack" and "Scarred City", the Lunar New Year comedy "Love Call Transfer" still achieved a box office of nearly 1000 million in the first weekend.

Although "Love Call Transfer" is full of stars, many actors came to guest star, and almost no remuneration was confiscated, so the total cost of the film was only 1100 million yuan,

In other words, if the movie "Love Call Transfer" wants to return its capital, it only needs to get a box office of 3000 million, which can basically guarantee that it will not lose money.

So, so far, Jiang Xiaofeng has no pressure on the box office of the movie "Love Call Transfer".

Jiang Xiaofeng's current investment in movies is not mainly for the box office, but to raise the reputation of Century Film and Television Company in the movie circle and cultivate movie talents, such as directors, screenwriters, actors, etc.

As for the "Huaguo New Star Director" invested by Jiang Xiaofeng, it has won a group of young filmmakers such as Ning Hao, Xu Zheng, Liu Yiwei and Huang Bo, which can be regarded as a small achievement.

And Jiang Xiaofeng's "Huaguo New Star Director" project will not stop. Every year in the future, he will spend a sum of money to invest and train new directors, so as to inject a steady stream of fresh blood into the Century Group.

September 1, evening.

Yanjing, a box of a hot pot restaurant.

While eating hot pot, Jiang Xiaofeng and Zhou Jielun chatted about their work plans for the new year.

Zhou Jielun also took this opportunity to bravely reveal to Jiang Xiaofeng that he has always wanted to be a director, and also hoped to make a movie about music or about young people.

After learning about Zhou Jielun's thoughts, Jiang Xiaofeng asked with interest: "Really? What's the name of the movie you want to make?"

Zhou Jielun said mysteriously: "I can't say it yet. This is a secret that can't be revealed. If I tell it, there will be no surprises. You must maintain a sense of mystery. When the time comes, the filming will definitely be amazing. It will definitely scare you."

Looking at the confident Zhou Jielun, according to his description just now, Jiang Xiaofeng had roughly guessed that the movie Zhou Jielun wanted to make should be "The Unspeakable Secret".

Prior to this, Zhou Jielun had completed the script of "The Unspeakable Secret". This script is based on Ye Xianglun's high school life and tells the story of Ye Xianglun, a piano genius who transferred to an art school. In an old piano practice room, Seeing Lu Xiaoyu playing mysterious piano music, and then unfolding a fantasy love story

According to Zhou Jielun's plan, the script of "The Unspeakable Secret" is based on his own high school life, and he plans to return to his alma mater, Tamkang Middle School for filming.

After understanding Zhou Jielun's thoughts, Jiang Xiaofeng didn't ask this or that, but nodded with a smile: "Okay Jielun, since you have confidence, then you can shoot, I support you."

Zhou Jielun thought that Jiang Xiaofeng would question him, and was thinking about how to persuade Jiang Xiaofeng, but unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaofeng agreed to his request so readily...

For a moment, Zhou Jielun didn't know what to say, and said gratefully: "Brother Feng, thank you, thank you for always supporting me and trusting me, I don't even know what to say."

Jiang Xiaofeng replied with a smile: "Jie Lun, you don't have to think so much. I support you because I believe in you. I believe that you are a person with pursuit and ideals. Just like the music you make, you will not be perfunctory." thing."

"By analogy, in fact, many industries are similar. If you can make music so well, it means that you will have a higher success rate in other things."

Faced with Jiang Xiaofeng's trust and appreciation, Zhou Jielun also felt very proud and proud. To be honest, to be appreciated by his boss and idol, for Zhou Jielun, it was more support and love than thousands of fans.

Because Zhou Jielun has always regarded Jiang Xiaofeng as his idol and the goal he pursued. Almost every step he has taken over the years has followed Jiang Xiaofeng's old path, including this time he plans to write, direct and act in "The Unspeakable Secret" "The movie is also the inspiration and motivation that Jiang Xiaofeng wrote, directed and acted in the movie "Waiting Alone".

Every time Jiang Xiaofeng succeeds, Zhou Jielun sees many possibilities. He thinks that what Jiang Xiaofeng can do, Zhou Jielun will do the same.

Zhou Jielun also secretly vowed in his heart that he must work hard to make the movie "The Unspeakable Secret" well, so as not to disappoint Jiang Xiaofeng, nor to disappoint fans and friends.

Apart from the movie "The Unspeakable Secret", what Zhou Jielun most wants to make now is the second part of "Initial D".

In fact, regarding the sequel of "Initial D", there are already rumors on the Internet that the second film is called "Initial D: Alpine Track", and it is directed by Liu Weiqiang. There has been no movement, which makes him quite helpless.

Liu Weiqiang is also a person who has demands on himself. It's not that he doesn't want to make a sequel. After all, with Zhou Jielun as a cash cow, he can make money from any filming. But he still hopes that he will start planning a sequel only if he has a good script.

Of course, Jiang Xiaofeng also has requirements for Zhou Jielun. His request for Zhou Jielun is to release a new album in 2006. This is the bottom line.

After all, the contract between Zhou Jielun and Century Group still has 7 years to go. In the next 7 years, Jiang Xiaofeng will still rely on Zhou Jielun to make a lot of money for him and the company.

Zhou Jielun lived up to expectations and became the most profitable artist of the Century Group. In 2005, he helped the company earn more money than Tan Jing, Wu Jian, Hu Ge and others combined.

This is also the fundamental reason why Jiang Xiaofeng has always supported Zhou Jielun so much. There is no other reason, it is because he is capable and can make money.

Similarly, because of Jiang Xiaofeng's acquiescence, Zhou Jielun not only has a lot of creative space and freedom, but his love affair with the female anchor Patty Hou has also caused a lot of trouble in the three places on both sides of the strait...

Zhou Jielun felt very sorry for this scandal. After all, he is an artist of Century Group, so he told Jiang Xiaofeng: "Brother Feng, I didn't mean to be photographed. Originally, those paparazzi wanted to photograph Eason Chan, and I happened to be in Dongying... "

Jiang Xiaofeng, who has been here, smiled and comforted: "Jie Lun, you don't need to apologize to me, I understand, it's okay, really, it's human nature to fall in love."

"Since you speak up yourself, let me tell you a few words. Be careful. After all, you have only been popular for 5 years, not even 10 years. At present, you should focus on your career. After all, men can't live without a career. Only then will there be women..."

Faced with Jiang Xiaofeng's teaching, Zhou Jielun was also very moved, and accepted it humbly, nodded: "I know Brother Feng, I will be careful in the future, and I will never let the paparazzi take pictures again."
