Huayu special effects started in 97

Big stars are not short of money, and some generous ones will treat all crew members to cold drinks and milk tea.

Reba became a star at a young age and has never experienced the hardship of making money. She is very generous in spending money.

He invited Jiang Heng three times within a few days of the start of filming, and each time he would personally bring a cup to Jiang Heng.

"You are a kind-hearted person. Everyone in the crew will praise you!" Jiang Heng sipped the cold drink and teased with a smile.

Reba lowered her eyes slightly, and her clean and fair cheeks silently turned slightly red.

"It's just a cold drink, nothing more!"

Jiang Heng smiled and said, "It's fine as long as you get the point. There's no need to buy too many times, otherwise it will be too expensive!"

"Ok, I know!"

The atmosphere became a little awkward as the two of them became depressed.

Jiang Heng glanced at his watch and said, "Okay, let's get ready for filming!"

"Ok!"

Reba plays a female war correspondent and has a lot of scenes, especially after she "travels through space" to other planets, there are many battle scenes facing alien natives.

Of course, at first, they definitely relied on advanced weapons to crush the enemy, but because of the limited ammunition, there were also many fighting scenes.

The character in the drama is set as a martial artist who is proficient in various fighting skills. By the second part, it is likely that she will be set closer to the "Black Widow".

And because Reba has good dancing skills, she also performed well when shooting fighting scenes.

……

In the blink of an eye, it is the National Day of 13. Because the overall market is relatively prosperous, the New Year/Spring Festival and summer vacation are often occupied by blockbuster films from iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video.

Therefore, the "May 1st" and "National Day" periods have become battlefields for other film and television companies and small and medium-cost films to fight.

The most anticipated film during this year's National Day holiday is "Lost in Hong Kong", written and directed by Xu Zheng.

Firstly, there are two best-selling predecessors, "Lost on Journey" and "Lost in Thailand", and many viewers are looking forward to it.

Secondly, news of "infringement" is flying everywhere. Everyone knows that Xu Zheng has put aside iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video and teamed up with Guangxian Pictures to make this film, obviously for the sake of watching the show.

In addition to "Lost in Hong Kong", there is another road movie that draws on the "囧 series" and was released in the same period, that is "A Happy Trip".

This film was written by Wen Juan and others and directed by Ye Weimin, and it obviously borrowed the setting of "Lost on Journey".

The male protagonist of the film is played by Chen Sicheng, a philandering obstetrician and gynecologist who was frightened to death by a "B-ultrasound" examination form, which led to a famous examination scene.

Coincidentally, the younger brother who is responsible for making trouble in this film is also played by Bao Bei'er.

It’s not exactly the same as his performance in “Lost in Hong Kong”, but it is extremely similar.

The result is that the promotion and publicity was a bit awkward, as both the media and the audience would unconsciously compare the two films.

Some film critics even pointed out bluntly that, with the exception of a few big directors like Jiang Heng, Zhang Yimou, and Jiang Wen who are quite innovative, many other Chinese-language directors are tirelessly following trends and rehashing old stuff just to make a quick buck, without considering the quality of the film at all!

Many media and netizens agree with this argument and have reposted it for discussion.

The two "囧 series" comedy films have not yet been released, but they have already lost ground in public opinion.

Inside the office of the CEO of Guangxian Pictures, Wang Changtian was holding the phone with a serious expression, but the answer from the other end was that Director Jiang was currently in closed-door filming on the crew and had no time to deal with what was happening outside.

"What do you mean?" Xu Zheng, who was sitting across the table, looked anxious.

He has put a lot of effort into this film, and even has a profit-sharing agreement, hoping to make a lot of money. If the box office doesn't pick up, not only will his work be in vain, but he will also be a worthless villain!

Wang Changtian hung up the phone and sighed, "I guess he's really angry, right?"

"Then, what should we do?" Xu Zheng's voice changed.

For the movie "Lost in Hong Kong", he did not receive the director's fee and 10% profit share like he did for "Lost in Thailand".

Instead, he became the big boss with 47.5% of the net box office revenue (minus distribution costs). His own company Zhen Ledao is both the producer and the first producer of the film.

Before "Lost in Hong Kong" was released, he sold his share of the box office to a Hong Kong listed company and made a profit in advance.

The company will be renamed Huanxi Media. Xu Zheng and Ning Hao each hold 19% of the shares, making them the company's second largest shareholders. The largest shareholder is the famous businessman Dong Ping.

In another time and space, it was Dong Ping who operated the backdoor listing of Ali Pictures. He also served as the chairman of the film company. He was also a famous film producer and investor. In short, he was a powerful figure.

Therefore, the movie "Lost in Hong Kong" is not only a comedy movie, but also a game of leveraging power between the capital world and the film and television industry.

Once the box office fails to pick up, things will become a bit troublesome.

"How about going to the China Film Digital Base?" Xu Zheng suggested.

Wang Changtian shook his head, "If they are determined not to see you, it's useless to go!"

"You can't just admit it like that, right?"

Wang Changtian smiled, "It hasn't come to that point yet, it's just the direction of public opinion at the moment!"

"I know the situation is not serious at the moment, but I'm afraid that after the film is released, people will continue to take action!"

Xu Zheng was worried, but not because of the film's box office, because the profits had been locked in in advance and he would not lose money in any way.

What he cares more about is Jiang Heng's attitude towards this matter and him. If iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video react too strongly, it will be difficult for him to survive in the circle in the future.

Wang Changtian's attitude was relatively calm, because Guangxian was the second largest producer and distributor of the film, and the investment amount was very limited.

Not to mention that the box office isn't that bad, even if it's a loss he can afford it!
"Things have come to this, let's take it one step at a time!"

"It can only be the!"

Having said that, Xu Zheng was still worried. He left the building of Guangxian Company and called his good friend Ning Hao, asking him to help find out what Jiang Heng was saying.

Ning Hao was unwilling to get involved in this matter. Not to mention Jiang Heng's support for him over the years, the current dominant position of iYouTeng Pictures in the industry was not something that a director like him could contend with!

"Look at you. You were cooperating well with them, but you had to do these things!"

Xu Zheng said: "I just want to make more money!"

"If you want to get more, go talk to Director Jiang. He's not a stingy person...!"

"It's no use saying this now, just help me find out the truth!"

"Hey, come on, I'm really...!"

Ning Hao hung up the phone mumblingly. He wanted to call Jiang Heng, but then he thought it would be better to talk about this matter in person.

I had nothing to do recently, so I drove to the China Film Digital Base.

The staff here naturally all knew Director Ning, and he came to Jiang Heng very smoothly.

"Hey, Director Ning, what a rare visitor! You came here suddenly. Do you have any ideas for a new film that you want to talk to me about?" (End of this chapter)
