During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 385 Ni Ni wants to take a shortcut and pay the debt with flesh

As Han Sanping said, the efficiency of the movie is very high, and the script of "囧囧" was reviewed quickly.

In order to avoid trouble, Wei Jin directly arranged for the company to announce the project.

"Movie: "A Journey to Thailand";
Total investment: 30 million; Producer: Shanhe Media;

Director: Xu Zheng; Screenwriter: Wei Jin;
Executive Director: Han Jia Nyeo;

Main actors: Xu Zheng, Wang Baoqiang, Huang Bai."

Looking at the news on the Internet, there was a lot of discussion in the circle.

"Unfortunately" originally cost 600 million yuan and earned hundreds of millions at the box office, but it left a deep impression on the industry.

Ning Hao also relied on this film to completely secure his position as a billionaire director.

How much will the box office of this movie, which looks like a sequel, be?
But why did the director of this film change? Is Xu Zheng going to cross the border too?
Also, who is this Han Jianu? Is it necessary to list an executive director separately?

Guangtou Xu was also very curious about this question and came to the company to ask. After all, there are many sexy operations in the entertainment industry. What if it was from Wei Jin?
Seeing the mean look on this guy's face, Wei Jin knew that he was wrong and glanced at him.

"This is Director Han's daughter. She is a first-year graduate student in the directing department of Nortel. She has little experience. Please take good care of her."

With a buzzing sound, only one voice echoed in Xu Guang's mind.

"This is Dong Han's daughter, Dong Han, his daughter"

When he came back to his senses, Xu Guangtou had an inexplicable look in his eyes. This was an incredible connection, and he immediately patted his chest to show his support.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wei, I will take good care of her."

After paying tribute to Director Han through the air, Bald Xu changed the topic.

"By the way, Mr. Wei, for the role of the goddess in the script, can you please invite Miss Gao Yuanyuan to make a guest appearance?"

Wei Jin smiled, this guy is really discerning, the goddess of tiger attack, isn't that the goddess herself? Nod immediately.

"can."

After seeing Xu Zheng off, Wei Jin took a nap in the office. As soon as he woke up, his assistant Huang Mengying came and knocked on the door.

"Boss, Director Zhang has been waiting for you in the reception room for a while."

"Oh? Why is he here?"

Wei Jin was still a little confused at the moment and simply didn't bother to guess.

"Okay, let him come over."

After a while, I saw Lao Mouzi knocking on the door and walking in with a few people.

"Mr. Wei."

"I'm sorry, Director Zhang, for keeping you waiting. Sit down."

"It's okay, it's okay. I came in a hurry and didn't say hello in advance."

Although he is a well-known director, Wei Jin gave him respect, and Lao Mouzi is not a person who can't handle things clearly. He is not respectful in his words and deeds, but he is also polite.

After all, regardless of his wealth, status in the industry, and even box office awards, Wei Jin beat him in almost all aspects.

What's more, just because Wei and Jin provided money and effort to help during this period, Lao Mouzi also has to thank him.

"Mr. Wei, you have met Zhou Dongyu and Dou Xiao before. This is Ni Ni."

"Hello, Mr. Wei." X3
Zhou Dongyu, Dou Xiao, and Ni Ni bowed to say hello with a very dignified attitude.

"Hello, no need to be restrained."

Wei Jin first looked at Zhou Dongyu and Dou Xiao. Although they had met at the premiere of "The Hawthorn Tree" before, they were not even qualified to speak on that occasion.

As for the reason why Lao Mouzi brought them here, it is not difficult to guess. It is just to get familiar with each other, and then see if they can get some help or even expire their contract before signing with Star Culture.

But Wei and Jin were not very optimistic about this.

Dou Xiao has a tough niche style, and there are many artists similar to Star Culture. Even if he comes here, he won't be able to get any top resources.

Zhou Dongyu's style is relatively rare, with two short legs and a well-behaved look.

It can be seen that Lao Mouzi should have planned a route for her, and she followed a lolita style, focusing on innocence and outspokenness.

It's like tilting your head and a question mark appears on your head "Why doesn't it count?".

I have to say, Lao Mouzi’s aesthetics are amazing.
It's just that this kind of persona won't last long. Isn't it true that Zhou Dongyu only retains the outspoken persona without seeing future generations?

In other words, that's not a character, she's just plain brainless.

Then Wei Jin turned his attention to Ni Ni, who was tall, curvy, pure and lustful.

I have to say that Ni Ni may not be particularly outstanding in appearance, but her figure and temperament are excellent. If she cooperates with a good director and costume style, she will be a proper female star killer, and she can easily overpower her.

In addition, it can be seen from the dispute with Xin Hua Mian that in Lao Mouzi's heart, Ni Ni is definitely more important than Zhou Dongyu and Dou Xiao.

Wei Jin speculated that Lao Mouzi wanted to make her the third "Mou Girl" to go international after Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi.

But no one would have thought that Zhou Dongyu, whose acting skills and external conditions were not outstanding at this time, would instead become the third Best Actress with three gold medals.

Although it is said that they have the credit of being close to the Hong Kong circle, it is undeniable that they have indeed found their own way.

On the contrary, Ni Ni, who has better conditions, will have a lot of difficulties in the future.

The so-called time is also destiny, it is nothing more than this.

After withdrawing his thoughts, Wei Jin chatted with the three of them for a few words.

After learning about Dou Xiao and Zhou Dongyu's plans, Wei Jin also admired Lao Mouzi's conduct in life. It was quite worry-free to deal with such people.

Dou Xiao and Zhou Dongyu are also very sensible. Knowing that the contract has not yet expired and it is difficult for Sunward Media to open its resources to them, they actively offered to star in the film for free and without signing a contract if necessary.

In this way, Zhang Weiping had absolutely nothing to do with them.

This statement made Wei Jin look at him with admiration and thought that he could give Lao Mouzi some face.

Of course, in the process of chatting, the great beauty Ni Ni received relatively more attention. After all, whether she is popular or not has nothing to do with Boss Wei. It just needs to be eye-catching.

"Have you ever learned to dance?"

"Well, I have been practicing the national standard for several years."

Ni Ni responded obediently. Although she had already signed a contract, this was her first time meeting the big boss, and she didn't want to leave a bad impression.

"Mr. Wei, this kid studied broadcasting in college, won a provincial championship in dance, and is a national second-level swimmer. He is very talented."

Lao Mouzi also complimented him. He was very concerned about Ni Ni's affairs.

Although Ni Ni has already signed a contract, there are so many Star Culture artists that the boss can give her a higher opinion to get more opportunities.

"It can be seen that he has a good temperament." Wei Jin praised.

Lao Mouzi's taste has always been relatively stable, and he very much favors girls who have practiced dancing.

In addition, I like to use amateur actors because they are easy to train and make it easier for the audience to get involved in the drama.

Gong Li was selected as a current student at the school, as was Zhang Ziyi, who was born to learn dance. Dong Bailian is also a dancer, Zhou Dongyu also practices gymnastics, and Ni Ni in front of her also has dancing skills, and even Liu Moumou was sprayed to the point of being completely covered in later generations. , is also a dancer.

So looking for a girl really comes from the same origin.

But now that Ni Ni has become his own artist, Lao Mouzi is willing to use his own face to help pave the way, and Wei Jin is also willing to be a smooth favor, treating it as a signing gift.

"Director Xu's next film is to restart the "Detective Dee" series. There are many female characters in it. You can give it a try when the time comes." "Thank you, Mr. Wei, soon."

Lao Mouzi on the side quickly reminded Ni Ni that he did not expect Wei Jin to be so straightforward, and felt that it was quite honorable.

"Thank you, Mr. Wei."

Ni Ni hurriedly bowed to express his thanks. Wei Jin stopped and expressed that he didn't care. Then he looked at Lao Mouzi, who immediately understood and greeted the three little ones.

"You guys should go back first, Mr. Wei and I have some things to do."

"Ni Ni, congratulations."

After leaving Wei Jin's office, Zhou Dongyu and Dou Xiao congratulated each other.

Xu Laoguai's movies may not be as influential as Lao Mouzi's movies, but "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" has a box office of 10 billion.

Coupled with the attitude revealed by Wei Jin, Ni Ni's subsequent development is bright, which makes the two of them quite envious.

"Oh, it's just an audition. I don't know if it will work or not."

Ni Ni didn't take it well, so she could only be modest.

Although the three of them come from the same family, their actual relationship is not very close.

Coupled with the teacher's preference, Ni Ni could feel Zhou Dongyu and Dou Xiao's little emotions, so naturally it was difficult to say anything.

Then he found a suitable reason and said:

"You guys, please go back first, and I will report to Director Zhang."

Zhou Dongyu and Dou Xiao looked at each other and understood what this junior sister meant.

"Okay, let's go now. Goodbye."

"See you."

Watching the two people leave, Ni Ni breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt dizzy.

Although she just said it lightly, she didn't expect Wei Jin to be so generous and give out the movie of Old Monster Xu as soon as he came.

Although it was said to be an audition, since Wei Jin had spoken, the matter was a certainty.

But she knew that this was for Lao Mouzi's sake, otherwise there were so many Star Culture artists, why should they be given to her?

It’s just the teacher’s face that will become less and less the more it is used. How do you manage the subsequent resources?
At this moment, she suddenly wanted to take a shortcut. It felt so good to win.

Wei Jin didn't know what Ni Ni was thinking. If he knew, he would just give her a naive expression.

This time the company bought out her contract, but it cost 10 million. How can she make money if she is not given resources in the future?

But if it really can't be cultivated, flesh compensation is also a good way.

Instructing the secretary to make two more cups of tea, Wei Jin asked.

"Director Zhang, are you coming here today to start work?"

"Well, I haven't won any Golden Globe awards, so it's time to start a new project."

It was difficult for Wei and Jin to accept Lao Mouzi's words. The news that "Thirteen Hairpins" lost the Golden Globe Award has spread throughout the industry.

The Golden Globe Award is the weathervane of the Oscars, which means that the chance of "The Thirteen Girls" to hit the Oscars is very slim.

After all, this is the eighth time Lao Mouzi has been competing for Oscars. He is really persistent.

However, since the workers were so dedicated, Wei and Jin were happy to do so.

"Okay, Director Zhang, are you considering a commercial film or an artistic film?"

"It's a literary film. Director Ning has gone to Berlin, and I also want to go to Cannes, haha."

Ever since he won the Golden Bear for "Red Sorghum" in 1988 and the Golden Lion for "Qiuju Lawsuit" in 1992, Lao Mouzi has been dreaming of collecting the three highest awards in Europe.

After all, there are only four of the three major European Grand Slam honors in the world. It can be said to be the highest honor in the film industry, and it is even rarer than the Oscar.

It's just that the script has always been his weakness, and he has never been able to achieve what he wanted.

Now that he has joined Sunward Media, he naturally has to make good use of resources. After all, the quality of Wei Jin's scripts is well-known in the industry.

In addition, in terms of commercial box office, it will be difficult for him to catch up with Wei Jin's achievements. It is better to continue to work hard in the field of literary and artistic films.

Of course, if there is a suitable commercial film script, he will not refuse it.

"Okay, since Director Zhang has an idea, I naturally support it. Just wait a moment."

After saying hello, Wei Jin got up and went to a hidden wall safe and selected a few scripts.

Lao Mouzi on the side was a little stunned when he saw Wei Jin's actions.

"Mr. Wei, is it safe to put the script here?"

Wei Jin laughed directly after hearing this, and instantly remembered Ning Hao's original reaction, which was exactly the same. It must be said that the great director really paid enough attention to the script.

"Haha, Director Zhang, you are not the first to say this. Back then"

After hearing the explanation, Lao Mouzi also smiled, but soon he turned his attention to the script in Wei Jin's hand.

"Director Zhang, please take a look at these books first."

To be honest, Wei Jin wanted Lao Mouzi to start with commercial films, but since the latter wanted to continue competing for awards, he didn't have any objections.

After all, literary films are what Lao Mouzi is good at. As long as the budget is well prepared, he will definitely make a lot of money.

It’s really not an easy task to win the Palme d’Or in Cannes.

If you think about how many years ago, only poets Wei Jin and Chen Chen have won the Palme d'Or in China, you will know how high the gold content is.

Even the reason why the Wei and Jin Dynasties were able to win the Palme d'Or was indispensable because of the King of Sunglasses' mischief.

Although the several scripts Wei Jin provided this time were all literary films, there were really not many that fit the taste of Cannes. After all, the goods in his mind were limited.

"Outstanding Citizen", "Fireworks in the Day", "Into the Dust", "Shoplifters".
Lao Mouzi was the first to pick up "Shoplifters" and watched it for about ten minutes.

"This book isn't about domestic affairs, is it?"

"Director Zhang has a good eye."

Wei Jin gave a thumbs up, "This is adapted from a real event in Japan. I made some adjustments and Chineseized it. It should be one of the most Cannes-friendly films in my mind."

Lao Mouzi nodded. He liked this book very much, and it was indeed in line with the aesthetics of Cannes. It just didn't match his style, so he had to consider it carefully, otherwise it would be like a pearl covered in dust.

Then I picked up several other scripts and read each one for almost ten minutes.

He has to admit that Wei Jin's script is really great.

In the end, Lao Mouzi held "Into the Dust" in his hands, which was the most suitable for his style.

"Just this book, I'll take it back and think about it first."

Wei Jin nodded. He had guessed that Lao Mouzi would like this book. Are the fifth generation directors good at these methods?
"Okay, Director Zhang, there's no need to worry. Spend the New Year with your family and don't worry about good things."

Lao Mouzi nodded. Literary films are different from commercial films. He thought that he was not as efficient as Wei and Jin, so he had to thoroughly understand the script first.

"it is good"
