my gilded age

Chapter 245 The Lunar New Year war starts with iron pot mutton

In winter, the grasslands of Inner Mongolia are no longer green, but are all white. The land used to be much flatter, but now it looks really white. If you use this word to describe other places, it would be a bit unfair. Absolutely no running here.

Since it is winter, it is natural to eat something hot and replenishing, such as mutton in an iron pot. This is so delicious. It is still winter, and it is not the season for sheep to do that. It is all watery. The lamb is so tender.

However, there is something special about this pot. It’s stewed with a whole lamb stuffed into the pot. Don’t order it if there are few people. It’s definitely a scam.

The tender mutton comes out of the pot, torn open, the meat is juicy, dripping with oil and water, and dipped in salt or chive flower sauce. It is perfect and delicious!
"Brother Jiang, let's have some wine." Bai Shiqiu didn't forget to greet people while eating.

"Brother Bai, you're so polite, haha..." Although Jiang Zhiqiang traveled all over the country, he was born in Hong Kong after all, and later spent most of his time in the United States. He is really not familiar with this prairie, and he is so tough and tough. He had never tried it before, he was so heroic, but it was really satisfying to do it once.

Of course Jiang Zhiqiang came to Inner Mongolia not to see the scenery of the prairie. Besides, there is snow everywhere now. Indeed, the snow scene is very shocking. He has never seen it before, but this is not the point. He is Come to talk about something.

"Brother Bai."

"Brother Jiang, please speak." Bai Shiqiu also felt it, and his words had a Jianghu flavor, not to mention that he was playing an ancient person.

"Okay!" Jiang Zhiqiang didn't think any more, "Now that I'm so famous, I'm earning tens of millions of dollars to act in movies, and I'm the one who produced the most popular movies. You're not the one who has the title of No. 1 in Mainland China." No one else."

When Bai Shiqiu heard this, his face turned red, "This is too much, I can't afford it."

Jiang Zhiqiang immediately smiled and said: "You deserve it, you deserve it. At least he is the most outstanding person among the younger generation, and he even has the momentum to surpass your senior sister Zhang Ziyi. I am telling the truth about these things. Ah Qiu, you are so awesome, even many people in Hong Kong say so, so awesome, so awesome. However, there is one thing, I have to..."

Bai Shiqiu already knew what Jiang Zhiqiang was going to say, "It's about Teacher Zhang Yimou's blockbuster, right?"

"This..." Jiang Zhiqiang was in a daze at that time.

Bai Shiqiu further said: "Brother Jiang is doing it for my own good. The male lead of this film has been decided, so now I want to comfort me. I'm afraid the second male lead will not be able to do it, but the third male lead is also good, right?" "

"..." Jiang Zhiqiang sweated profusely after hearing this. Although the stove in this room was indeed very warm, it was not to this extent.

Zhang Yimou's new film "Golden Armor" has been in preparation for a long time. Although according to Lao Mouzi's usual method, it is kept secret and kept secret, but a lot of news has leaked out.

For example, who was chosen for the role? Li Man, a fellow from Northeast China named Bai Shiqiu. As soon as this little girl showed up, people noticed one of her characteristics: big, big character.

Anyway, there are references to this on the Internet. In Bai Shiqiu's opinion, this is definitely a clever hype technique.

Jiang Zhiqiang told Bai Shiqiu about the audition before, and it sounded like that, but Bai Shiqiu thought that Jiang Zhiqiang originally asked him to be the third male lead.

Bai Shiqiu is aware of the drama "Golden Armor". The number one male lead is of course Fa Ge, which cannot be shaken, and the second number should be the second prince Yuan Jie. Yuan Jie is the little Asian music star Jay Chou who was born in Taiwan. Looking down, one can see that their reputation is at its peak.

The music aspect is already very good, and there is also a movie "Initial D" in 05. Let alone the acting skills, although many people commented that in this movie, Mr. Edison crushed Jay, but Jay After all, Lun is the leading actor, and the box office of this drama is very high.

So far, the domestic box office in 05 is like this. No.1 is Brother Long's "Myth", which took more than 9000 million, No.2 is "Initial D", which took more than 6500 million, and No.3 is "Old Pao" produced by Red Star has a box office of nearly 6000 million.

Of course, some media broke the news that the box office of "Initial D" was faked, but this is a routine operation in the industry and is nothing.

Regardless of his acting skills, Jay Chou can indeed carry the box office. Although countless people complain, this is the fact. He plays the second male lead in the drama "The Golden Jacket". There is no problem, at least for someone like Jiang Zhiqiang. From the management's perspective, it should be him.

But before, the role-changing controversy that broke out in "The Night Banquet" was done with great fanfare. Azu knew how to advance and retreat, and Huayi made mistakes in the draft. Even if an insider like Jiang Zhiqiang didn't know the details, he still couldn't. I can make a rough guess.

From Jiang Zhiqiang's point of view, now, the drama "Yue Nv Sword" is so popular. Bai Shiqiu has the highest salary for domestic male stars, and he is so popular in TV dramas. With Bai Shiqiu's momentum, is it possible? Did he lose to Jaylen?

However, if you look at it from the perspective of Asia as a whole, or from the perspective of the world, Jiang Zhiqiang is an international bad guy. In his heart, he still feels that Jay should play the second male lead.

I don’t want to give up my previous plan. Wouldn’t it be great if Bai Shiqiu could be ranked as the third male lead?
People are greedy, and he, Jiang Zhiqiang, is even more greedy, but he knows that this matter is difficult to handle, so he went all the way to Inner Mongolia to discuss the project, hoping that he can gain something.

Before, Bai Shiqiu roughly guessed Jiang Zhiqiang's purpose, but now judging by his expression, it should be a hit, so what's next...

"Aqiu, everything between us is easy to talk about, haha..." Jiang Zhiqiang dispersed his embarrassment, and then said: "Since you understand everything, Aqiu, let me tell you straight, "Golden Armor" 》Many actors have been confirmed for this film before. Brother, I did something wrong in this matter, so I apologize to Ah Qiu. But now, the matter has come to this, and there is nothing I can do. However, I heard before that Something happened, it seems that one of your Red Star films, Ah Qiu, is looking for overseas distribution, right?"

Shout out to Ah Qiu, this is narrowing the distance, and now he is talking about overseas distribution. This Jiang Zhiqiang is really not free, he is really a powerful person.

Bai Shiqiu smiled, "Of course, our Red Star is still a small team. Although the troubles in the country have been okay in recent years, our country's economic situation has always been export-oriented. Our Red Star is still lagging behind in this aspect." What he said can be called a leader.

Jiang Zhiqiang understood immediately when he heard that there was a way. He had seen too many leaders. Now, he had to negotiate a good price, which was a condition that could be exchanged.

"Aqiu, it's easy to say. This movie called "Chow Tai Sin" is going to be released on the Mainland Chinese New Year film, right?"

"That's right." Bai Shiqiu nodded.

"Brother Jiang, I will come and operate in Hong Kong first. How about this?" Jiang Zhiqiang tried his hand.

"Of course." Bai Shiqiu nodded.

Jiang Zhiqiang was delighted, "Oh, let me tell you, Zhang Zhen is a good friend of you, and the movies he recommends will never be bad. It's just that time is a bit tight, but it doesn't matter, then our "Golden Armor"..."

"As for this movie, I think it's better to forget it." Bai Shiqiu expressed his helplessness.

"..." Jiang Zhiqiang's expression changed. He knew that the price given before was wrong. However, after all, he was a senior operation expert in the industry. He had been prepared early in the morning and immediately took out another bargaining chip. "Aqiu, as a brother, you have to have some greetings. This meal and this sheep are nothing. The most important thing is that brother knows that Aqiu, your star, is going to compete with a blockbuster in "Chow Tai Sin" this time. Let's put it this way, I have seen those big movies, brother, they are really sexy, brother, I will definitely help you this time, and don’t call them pornographic movies to smear people’s eyes."

What he said is very clear. The filming of "The Promise" has been completed. Everyone knows how this movie is. As an international tycoon, Jiang Zhiqiang has naturally seen it. He feels that such a movie... he doesn't understand it at all.

When Bai Shiqiu heard this, he understood that Jiang Zhiqiang was going to use his own methods to steal this much-anticipated blockbuster, in exchange for starring in the third male role in "The Golden Jacket".

By the way, it seems that the movie "The Promise" doesn't need a big shot like Jiang Zhiqiang to hack it.

However, people have already talked to this point. It would be bad if Bai Shiqiu is pretentious. After all, this person has a lot of energy in the circle. He is just a little greedy now.

It feels a bit like a conspiracy...that's all.

"Brother Jiang, there is something I want to say."

"Ah Qiu, tell me." Jiang Zhiqiang was happy, knowing that the price seemed to be about the same.

"Looking at the current information, Teacher Zhang wants to adapt "Thunderstorm", right?"

"Yes, "The Golden Armor" is adapted from "Thunderstorm"."

"But why do I feel that, judging from the current roles, there is a shortage of people?"

"Who is missing?"

"There's no such thing as a big sea."

"Lu Da..." Jiang Zhiqiang understood immediately, "Okay, Ah Qiu, if you say so, then I understand. I will talk to Director Zhang when I get back. If it doesn't work..."

Before Jiang Zhiqiang finished speaking, Bai Shiqiu smiled and said: "Then I will definitely go to the audition."

It is enough to point this out. Everyone understands.

These two people made a very simple deal. That is to say, Bai Shiqiu didn't want to compete with Jay for the second male lead, but he also didn't want the third male lead. That belonged to his senior brother Liu Ye, and what he meant was , add a role.

"Golden Armor" is adapted from "Thunderstorm", but among the characters in "Golden Armor", as of now, the king = Zhou Puyuan, the eldest prince = Zhou Ping, the second prince Yuanjie = Zhou Chong, then... where is Lu Dahai?
After the film was released, some people commented that the second prince Yuan Jie is Lu Dahai. This must be bullying friends who have not watched "Thunderstorm".

Now, Bai Shiqiu hopes to add such a role, Lu Dahai, who was originally very important but disappeared from Zhang Yimou.

As for whether it can be successful, that's all.

It's already mid-December, and the much-anticipated blockbuster "The Promise" is about to be released. This year's Lunar New Year festival has already begun, but now, the exciting drama of Enter the Dragon has just begun.
