China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 349 Casting, Review, New TV Series
"This is... a complete destruction of the Chinese movie theater chain's chassis!"

Wanda Cinema Line, Ye Ning called President Da Wang to discuss the recent situation of the cinema line. As they talked, he couldn't help but express such emotion.

"That's true. Unless the number of screens continues to increase, it will be difficult to break this box office volume."

The King was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "The celebration banquet hasn't been held yet. Send an invitation using Wanda's name. If I have time, I will go meet him."

"You want to see him?"

Ye Ning was a little surprised. Although Lingyun Media is very popular currently, its scale is not on the same level as Wanda.

"Lingyun is about to go public, so it won't hurt for me to have a chat."

The king always chuckled. He was optimistic about the film and television industry and always believed that it was a fertile land that needed to be exploited.

He is interested both at home and abroad.

Recently, I am also considering purchasing a foreign cinema platform.

But all this is just planning. The specific details and negotiations will take at least more than a year.

As for Guan Ling's Lingyun Media, he naturally didn't want to miss the opportunity.

The big king knows a few of these Chinese directors and producers, but perhaps the only one who is most worthy of his condescending to talk to is Guan Ling.

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Wang stared at the news on the Internet in silence for a long time.

So young, so accomplished, everything about him is like

The secretary came over and chatted with him, "Mr. Wang, do you need to send Guan Ling an invitation to the cultural industry salon you are organizing next?"

"No need."

Lao Wang raised his head, looked at his secretary and said, "Have you checked Huaqiang Fangte?"

"I checked. Lingyun Media has only purchased their animation company for now. After all, Huaqiang Fangte's headquarters is in real estate. Guan Ling did not change his career."

"He is indeed very confident in the animation industry."

Da Wang picked up a glass of water and took a sip. "This is indeed consistent with my point of view."

The secretary said nothing.

But he knew what the king meant.

Previously, at an internal meeting of the company, President Da Wang had talked about his idea that Wanda needs to make use of its own space to thoroughly develop the film industry and become one of the largest film industry companies in China and even the world.

He even thought about establishing China's Oriental Hollywood.

But all this has not yet been fully implemented.

But the secretary knew that one day, the king would make all this a reality.

Thus, he became the person with the most say in the global entertainment industry.

But for now, he can only rely on money to do all this.

If it was Ling, perhaps everything would be much simpler.

So he really hopes to find some time to chat with Guan Ling and talk about their views on the future of the cultural industry.

By the way, they talked about the listing issue and he planned to buy some shares.

The secretary also knew it very well.

"Actually, I also want to see if he is laying the groundwork."

Although the secretary did not respond, President Wang continued, “Huaqiang Fangte, interesting.

I really want to know whether Lingyun Media also wants to become the Disney of China. "

The name Huaqiang Fantawild is just a child of four or five years old to Wanda.

But after cooperating with Guan Ling and attracting the attention of President Wang, he became interested.

Huaqiang Fantawild started out in the field of special films and is a supplier to many science and technology museums, children's palaces, commercial centers and amusement parks in China.

But four years ago, they suddenly started to try the theme park business, and in April 2006, they established the first theme park in CQ City.

Their descriptions are interesting.

That is, we will learn from the development experience of the world's leading entertainment groups, Disney and Universal Studios, take 'culture + technology' as the core, and attach importance to the development of the integration of cultural content and technology.

In 2008, he founded an animation company with the intention of creating his own original animation brand.

Although the effects are not yet significant, the approach of all these things coincides with the king's.

But compared with the pragmatic spirit of Huaqiang Fangte, Mr. Wang knows that his Wanda cultural industry is still too young. Even its cinema chain has not been able to completely surpass the size of China Film Star Midea. Although everything is worth looking forward to, it is not possible to become rich overnight.

The main problem is that Wanda does not have any classic cultural products so far, which means it lacks core competitive IP.

This is very fatal to the film companies.

This is also the reason why he wants to meet Guan Ling.

The explosive box office performance of "Inception" and Guan Ling's announced entry into the animation industry obviously made President Wang even more restless.

Guan Ling and even Lingyun Media's imagination, their production experience and level as a film production company, and even their hairstyle experience, are all things that Wanda needs to learn.

In addition, Skyline is also involved in the production and distribution of international films.

This is also the part that Wanda is looking forward to very much.

"What do you think of his brain?"

There was too much box office information on hand, and the King read it several times, but still let out a sigh.

The secretary beside him smiled and said, "Strength and luck?"

"No, no luck." The king always shook his head.
“I’ve heard people say before that if you stand on the right vent, even a pig can take off.

In recent years, the Internet has been a hot spot, and real estate can also be considered one of the hot spots.

The film and television industry is developing, but a director of Guan Ling's status has nothing to do with the trend. He relies on pure strength. "

The secretary glanced at President Wang, his eyes full of admiration.

“It is said that heroes are made by the times, but some people are cowards, while some people are true heroes.”

"And I don't mind adding fuel to the fire at all!"

……

"Even though I have already prepared myself mentally that your movie will most likely become the most popular movie in China, I still shocked you."

Jiang Wen called, his voice full of mushy words.

"No one comes to see you for no reason. If you have something to say, just tell me."

Guan Ling knew that Jiang Wencai would not talk nonsense, so he went straight to the point and broke the argument between the two.

"Hey, there's something. I'm planning to start filming a new movie. It's about investment..."

"You're still asking me this? Now as long as you want to make a film, we'll rush to give it to you."

"Isn't it that we should first focus on Director Guan? When drinking water, we should remember the well-digger. I understand."

"What's the new movie about?"

"I actually have an idea. I wonder if you know about the Yan Ruisheng case?" Jiang Wen said, "But the script is not complete yet. I forced Wang Shuo to write it."

Guan Ling immediately realized the name of Jiang Wen’s new movie. Due to the early release of "Let the Bullets Fly", "One Step Away" was finally put on the agenda.

"You're talking to me about a new play before the script is out yet?"

Guan Ling was speechless.

"As for the script, I still need your comments and suggestions when the time comes?"

"Don't rely on me. I'm busy. You can't just talk nonsense with the Japanese."

"Are you really into anime? You know how to do that?"

"I didn't know how to do it originally, but after the Japanese accused me of plagiarism, I had to learn it." "Wow! Are you learning it now?"

Jiang Wen was stunned by Guan Ling.

The two chatted for a while. Guan Ling did not make any firm decisions about the script of his new movie. The script of "One Step Away" was very confusing and Guan Ling did not have much confidence in it.

Instead of making a bad script, it’s better to make a new one for Jiang Wen.

But Jiang Wen’s personal style is too strong, so making a foreign movie is not that suitable.

Guan Ling finally decided to mind his own business.

……

The crew of "I Am a Witness".

"I never thought that Director Guan's movie would have such a high box office."

Liu Sisi looked at the information on the Internet and fell into silence. The name Liu Yifei had gradually ceased to be a burden to her.

But when I saw the other party's box office performance,
Liu Sisi still felt some pain in her heart.

She admitted that "I Am a Witness" was a good movie and the best resource she had ever come across, but compared to Liu Yifei, it was nothing.

The other party has already completely stood on the world stage.

And she is still working in domestic films.

They both sacrificed a lot for Guan Ling's brother. She was actually a little unwilling to accept it. Why could she do it but she couldn't?

Is b also divided into grades?
Occasionally, she thought of these things, and the envy and jealousy in her heart made her almost completely silent.

……

Throughout July, the Chinese entertainment industry's "Inception" has completely become a box office harvester for the summer season.

If someone stands in the way of a person, he will kill someone; if someone stands in the way of a Buddha, he will kill the Buddha.

Jingtian was initially waiting for the release of the movie "My Beauty Boss" to increase his popularity, and then he waited until he saw the performance of "Inception".

She was completely lying down.

She was dizzy even during the promotions, this movie was a complete crush on her.

"Why? Why do I have such good resources, but in the end I still can't become popular no matter how much I promote myself?"

Jingtian himself was speechless.

She felt like a plague god, a box office killer, someone that no one else could ever touch during filming. Of course, she couldn't touch Guan Ling either.

Thinking of this, Jingtian felt sick all over.

"Oh, that's so annoying!"

At home, Jingtian kicked the sofa angrily.

"Director Guan, Director Guan, when will you let me shoot a scene?"

The child is so depressed that he is a little confused.

……

In late July, there was a lot of chaos in the entertainment industry with all kinds of news.

On the 22nd, a piece of news that was not too big came out in the entertainment circle. Duanmu, who was previously filming "Let's Watch Meteor Shower Together", was disfigured due to an explosion during the filming.

Selina's condition was even more serious, and she was directly issued a critical illness notice.

For a time, all major television and film production companies in the industry had to strictly check for safety hazards to avoid all problems.

Naturally, all major film crews under Lingyun Media must also make rectifications.

When the news came out, many viewers who had watched Duanmu’s TV shows felt a little regretful.

More details were revealed, claiming that there was only one stretcher at the scene, and he, as a man, gave the stretcher to the actress.

On all major platforms, passers-by gave him a thumbs-up, praised him highly and claimed that he was a real man.

At the same time, new news from Lingyun Media once again attracted the attention of the Chinese entertainment industry.

"The casting for "Never Gone" has been completed and filming will begin in August this year. The launch conference will be held at Tsinghua University in August."

As the news came out, many people looked over.

Actors in the industry are extremely excited about this film, which is said to be a tribute to the centenary of Tsinghua University. There is no one who does not want to satisfy their acting addiction in China's top university, even if it is just acting!

And ever since the official announcement, his cast has been the focus of the industry.

Huang Xiaoming, Mu Tingting, and Zhu Yawen were roles that had already been decided, and these roles could not be snatched away by others, but the remaining spots still attracted a lot of attention in the industry.

Many veteran actors in the industry, such as Fan Wei and Chen Daomin, have contacted us privately.

Some big stars, such as Zhao Zhatian, Xu Jinglei and even Li Bingbing, have even thought about kicking Mu Tingting out and taking over themselves.

And their attitude is very low, as long as Ning Hao or Guan Ling nods

Even if this matter is settled, as for the remuneration, you can just pay it as you see fit.

Ning Hao didn't dare to act rashly with the people Guan Ling had chosen, so he could only reject them one by one.

As for the remaining actors, Ning Hao finally chose his own people.

Zhang Songwen and Zhang Zhen got the final two leading roles.

As the news came out, it caused quite a stir in the industry.

After the official announcement of the film's content and the release of information about the actors, combined with Tsinghua University's active publicity, this film quickly became a new hot spot in the entertainment industry.

"I really want to see what kind of movie it is that could make people from Tsinghua University decide on this project so quickly."

"Besides TV series, Mu Tingting has only filmed one movie, Night Club. Is Director Guan going to choose someone else this time?"

"Mu Tingting is not that popular, but Long Kui is really popular. And her acting is also good. With the addition of Huang Xiaoming, Mu Tingting, Zhu Yawen, Zhang Songwen, and Zhang Zhen, I feel like their acting skills are going to soar!"

"They are all talented! Except Zhu Yawen!"

There is more and more news on the Internet.

Zhu Yawen was ridiculed for no reason, but he didn't react much. In this movie, he played a pilot, a kid from a wealthy family, so his acting skills were not very demanding.

Zhang Songwen, on the other hand, received countless messages of congratulations.

Because after it was officially announced that he joined "Never Gone".

Another piece of news about Lingyun Media instantly spread throughout the entertainment circle.

"Lingyun Media's tribute TV series "Awakening Age" has passed the review and may be broadcast on national TV stations in September at the latest."

"I was in tears at the audit site. I heard the auditor say that according to the rules, a lot of content might need to be deleted from this TV series. But the higher-ups gave the nod and no cutting was allowed."

“A top-notch tribute that is a hundred times better than The Founding of a Republic!”

All kinds of news directly bombarded "Awakening Age".

The attention of countless TV stations in the circle has been focused on him, just waiting for Guan Ling to say that they look forward to cooperation.

If, from a film perspective, some people still have hesitations about a certain type of Guan Ling film.

But for TV series.

All everyone can say is awesome.

Since the filming of TV series, every one of them has been a classic.

Each and every one of them brings huge profits to the TV stations.

Apart from the small quantity, Guan Ling has absolutely no shortcomings!
