China Entertainment Anchor

"Yu Nan? Why did you think of her?" Zhang Yang frowned after hearing Liu Yifei's words.

It seems like the movie "Wolf Warrior" hasn't been released yet.

"I recently watched the movie "The Expendables 2" online. She played a computer expert in the army." Liu Yifei explained.

"The Expendables 2" was a movie 12 years ago, so it's hard for Liu Yifei to watch it.

"Yu Nan is too wild and not intellectual enough." Zhang Yang rejected Liu Yifei's proposal.

"Then find Yuan Quan."

"Yuan Quanzhi went too far." Zhang Yang refused again.

Liu Yifei couldn't help but get angry when she saw that Zhang Yang rejected his two proposals in a row.

"What about Yan Danchen?"

"Yan Danchen is too soft. She is not suitable for playing the role of a soldier." Zhang Yang refused again.

When Zhang Yang said this, he suddenly remembered someone who said, "Tang Wei seems to be able to do it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yang denied it: "No."

It would be too controversial for someone who had acted in "Lust, Caution" to play a military wife.

"Actually, Zhou Xun and Li Binbin are both good, but using them is a bit unfair." Zhang Yang said regretfully.

"In this case, Xiao Yanzi is more suitable." Liu Yifei said jokingly from the side.

Zhang Yang couldn't help but nodded as he thought about it. Xiao Yanzi was indeed suitable, but could Zhang Yang use her?

Wait, a person suddenly appeared in Zhang Yang's mind, and then he hesitated a little.

Liu Yifei saw Zhang Yang's hesitant look and thought to herself, is there any actor in China who makes Zhang Yang hesitant?

Suddenly she thought of a person, Gao Yuanyuan. Zhang Yang had been talking about intelligence. Isn't Gao Yuanyuan just that kind of intellectual, but not in many categories? Could it be that Zhang Yang copied this character after Gao Yuanyuan?

"You're not thinking of Gao Yuanyuan, are you?" Liu Yifei took the initiative and asked directly.

Zhang Yang's expression remained unchanged, but he felt that managing his expression was becoming increasingly useless in front of Liu Yifei. With a tiny movement, she could guess a lot.

Of course, Zhang Yang could also see a lot of Liu Yifei's subtle movements.

"Yes, I did think of her." Zhang Yang didn't hide it, there was no need.

"Is there no other candidate?" Liu Yifei asked tentatively.

"Yes, there is one, but if I choose her, my male lead will have no choice." Zhang Yang said feeling embarrassed.

Liu Yifei asked because she wanted to see if this role was specially customized by Zhang Yang for Gao Yuanyuan. When I saw it wasn't true, I didn't take it to heart.

Why not just collaborate on a movie? Before they were together. They also collaborated on "Search" and nothing happened!

Liu Yifei asked curiously: "Who is it?"

"Liu Tao." Zhang Yang said.

Liu Tao, currently known as "Liu's Wife" in the industry, is quite suitable for her to play a military doctor.

"What impact will choosing her have on the male protagonist?"

"Now, Zhang Hanyu and Hu Jun are the most suitable tough guys. If I choose Liu Tao now, Hu Jun cannot be chosen." Zhang Yang said helplessly. Zhang Yang is a little partial to Hu Jun in his heart. He looks domineering.

Liu Yifei didn't know what she thought of at this time. The gossip about the two of them when they were filming "Dragon" had spread so far that almost everyone in the circle knew about it.

It is estimated that if someone recited a song "Ode to the Goose" in front of them, their expressions would change.

"Do you want me to contact Gao Yuanyuan for you?" Liu Yifei said coolly.

Zhang Yang looked at Liu Yifei a little surprised, could he be so straightforward!

"It's business as usual. It's up to her to decide later!" Zhang Yang explained.

Liu Yifei took a deep look at Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang naturally felt it, and at the same time, he also decided on the film candidate.

That night when the two of them were watching TV in the lobby, Zhang Yang felt that Liu Yifei was sitting on the sofa half a meter away from him.

So he simply moved his position, sat next to Liu Yifei, and opened his right arm to hold her in his arms.

Liu Yifei struggled twice but failed to break free.

The next day, Zhang Yang entered the studio on time at ten o'clock in the morning.

Sure enough, the bosses of the five companies had arrived, and their assistants didn't know where they were waiting for them. Anyway, they were not in Zhang Yang's studio.

"Everyone has been waiting for a long time." Zhang Yang said with a smile.

"Director Zhang, if you are worried about our movie, you should wait a little longer." Mr. Wandaye said very politely.

"After Director Zhang boarded Mr. Wanda's yacht, his treatment under Mr. Ye was completely different." Mr. Xingmei Tan joked.

Zhang Yang ignored them. He waved the tea on the table and someone came to remove it. Then the tea was replaced with new tea.

"This is the chrysanthemum tea I bought in Hangzhou last year. Let's all try it." Zhang Yang said politely to several people.

As if they had made an appointment, they took a few sips pretending to be curious, and then discussed with each other.

Zhang Yang didn't ask how they were doing. He had made up his mind not to speak easily today.

As time passed, several people looked at Zhang Yang's expression, and they didn't know what he was planning.

"Director Zhang, why did the investment in this movie suddenly increase?" Mr. Xingmei Tan spoke first.

"If you want to do large-scale special effects, of course the investment will be huge."

"You won't leave it to Teng Xun's special effects!" Mr. Xiao Wang asked.

"Is there any special effects company in China that is better than Tengxun Special Effects?" Zhang Yang asked rhetorically.

Zhang Yang winked at the assistant again, and the assistant immediately stood up and said with a smile to several people: "Boss, this movie is a..."

The assistant spoke briefly and told everyone the story, and also told everyone how many special effects to do.

A few people can get a general idea after listening to it. "Who are you planning to use as the leading actor in the movie?" Wang Changtian suddenly asked.

"I haven't decided yet. Anyway, I have to use a tough guy. What do you think of Hu Jun?" Zhang Yang suggested.

"He can't do it. Chen Jianbing actually took a risk last time, but even if the production cost was 100 million, this time the cost of 300 million still needs to be carefully chosen." Mr. Xiao Wang said immediately.

Everyone smiled faintly when they saw Mr. Wang's reaction. Everyone still knew about the incident between Hua Yi and Wang Jinghua.

The departure of Wang Jinghua made Hua Yi's artist managers very passive, forcing Hua Yi to change its model and set up several management groups.

"How about that piece of Yihong?" Zhang Yang suggested.

Duan Yihong and Zhang Yang have just worked together not long ago, and it seems that they can work together again now.

Wang Changtian, Mr. Ye, and Mr. Tan all nodded.

Although Duan Yihong is not too tall, she has a unique military temperament. It still matches the protagonist mentioned by Assistant Zhang Yang just now.

"I think Zhang Hanyu is pretty good. His surname is Zhang." Fatty Yu suddenly said.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the others were fine, but Mr. Wang looked not so good.

Although Xiangjiang Film has always been Fatty Yu's exclusive distribution territory, Huayi also has Xu Ke and Zhou Xingxing in its hands.

But after the Journey to the West incident, Xu Ke turned around and collaborated with Bona in the movie "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom", which was also a great success.

For the movie Bona, the director used to work with Huayi, and the lead actor Zhang Hanyu also worked with Huayi before, but now they have gone to work with Bona.

Fatty Yu now openly recommended Zhang Hanyu, which in Mr. Wang's opinion was really inappropriate.

He recommended it after Fatty Yu recommended it, and Zhang Yang actually used it. What Zhang Hanyu had to remember most was Fatty Yu's favor.

If he objects, it will not make Zhang Hanyu and Hua Yi even more alienated.

Talent is the most important thing in the 21st century. Mr. Wang has come to realize this sentence deeply. But although he was playing tricks, the pattern was still there.

"Yes, Hanyu is good." Mr. Wang said with a slightly unnatural look on his face.

Zhang Yang actually came here today because he wanted to use Zhang Hanyu’s.

But he deliberately didn't mention it until they took the initiative to bring it up, giving them the impression of giving them face.

Look, it not only achieves the goal, but also makes people remember the favor, killing two birds with one stone! Zhang Yang feels that he is most suitable to play Guo Jing now.

"Okay, Mr. Xiao Wang and Mr. Yu have strongly recommended it, so I still have to give you this face." Zhang Yang said.

They didn't even ask about the other characters. This time the five of them finished talking, and none of them left. Instead, they chatted with Zhang Yang.

They focus on a bonding relationship.

"Zhang Yang, when does your child's first birthday pass, we will go and celebrate it then." Fatty Yu suddenly said at this time.

"It's my first birthday, it's just my first birthday! When else can I celebrate it?" Zhang Yang asked strangely.

"Young people don't pay attention to these things anymore. Go back and ask if anyone in your family pays attention to it. People in the past didn't live on the same day." Mr. Tan explained.

"What's the explanation?" Zhang Yang asked curiously.

“In traditional Chinese culture, the first birthday celebration is usually held in the 12th month after the baby is born.

The ancients believed that in the 12th month after birth, the baby's vitality is more vigorous and it is easier to resist various diseases. Mr. Tan said calmly.

"It is also said that holding a first-year celebration on the baby's birthday may be considered to have bad meaning.

Because the word "one year old" has the same sound as "curse", if a first-year celebration is held on the baby's birthday, it may be considered to bring bad luck to the baby. "Mr. Wanda Ye also helped to explain. It was rare to be able to pretend to be in front of Zhang Yang.

"Actually, for ordinary people, it is more convenient for relatives and friends to participate." Mr. Xiao Wang said casually after taking a sip of chrysanthemum tea. Obviously he didn't believe those claims.

"Mr. Yu, has your child's first birthday passed on the same day?" Zhang Yang asked curiously.

"No." Fatty Yu answered in two words.

"Let me tell you about this child..." Mr. Xiao Wang also talked to everyone about how to get along with the child with great interest.

"Mr. Xiao Wang, you are so good at communicating with children, so you take them to "Daddy is Back"." Fatty Yu said teasingly.

"Why don't you let your new wife make a cameo in the movie?" Mr. Wang immediately retorted.

Watching the two of them play aggressive, the remaining four people found it quite interesting.

Unknowingly, it was twelve o'clock at noon, Zhang Yang stood up and waved his hand. He said angrily: "Let's go, I'll take you to some home-cooked food."

"It's rare for Director Zhang to get together with us in private. It's not easy! It would be better if we communicate more and get in touch with each other." Mr. Xiao Wang said with a smile.

Zhang Yang took the lead and said as he walked out: "I really keep in touch with you too much, so I won't disturb your relationship with other men and women."

The others laughed loudly after hearing this, but Mr. Wang didn't care at all.

Zhang Yang took a few people to the private restaurant he often went to for a meal and a drink.

Several people arrived at the wine table and resumed their united front to pour wine on Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang was reserved and ignored them at first.

After drinking for a while, their united front disappeared, and at first they didn't know whether they were telling the truth or talking nonsense.

"Zhang Yang, why do you think you are so lenient? I want to have your funds, and I have decided to build China's Disneyland." Mr. Xiao Wang said boldly with a red face.

"What's the point of being China's Disney? Now in terms of movies in China, we should focus more on theater chains. Let's build the largest theater chain in the country first!" Fatty Yu wanted to have theater chains.

"The largest theater chain in the country is not easy to manage. You will know when you take charge of it." Mr. Wanda Ye also complained.

"I think there should be legislation in the country. You must create a closed loop in the film industry. This will make people unable to compete." Wang Changtian complained.
