Actor: Thank you.

Kong Deshui and his family were left in the Magic City Hospital.

Zhang Yuan and Teacher Guo paid together to rent a house nearby for his family so that they could stay with him.

The hospital found that he was an actor.

In addition, he suffered two consecutive facial injuries, and the Shanghai Ninth Hospital was specialized in plastic surgery, so they decided to use him as a research project.

Just do it.

When people are doing a research project, they must do it well. It will only benefit them and not harm them.

Zhang Yuan thinks that this topic should be called "How Unlucky Can People Be".

This incident was also reported in newspapers in both Shanghai and Beijing, and it made headlines.

Kong Deshui said that his crosstalk was not very famous, but it had been reported in newspaper current affairs news several times.

His family is grateful.

Teacher Guo also asked him to get better quickly and allowed him to perform on stage after he returned.

The boy was naturally very touched.

Just imagine, when a person has an accident and no one cares about him, or when a group of people surround him and take care of everything from his medical treatment to his work, the feeling must be different.

After he finished his work, they all returned to the imperial capital together.

"Master, please protect us over there. Don't let our disciples and grandchildren get into trouble."

Backstage at the Dashilan Theater, Zhang Yuan held three incense sticks and bowed three times toward Hou Yuewen's black and white portrait, muttering something.

Life is not easy.

It is even more difficult to win fame during life and after death.

But no matter how great a hero is, he cannot avoid having an unvirtuous wife and unfilial children.

Hou Yuewen is not a great hero, but he has both the reputation of having an unvirtuous wife and unfilial children.

"Brother, how's the house going?"

He asked casually.

"I'm already going through the buying and selling process."

"Hmph!" When he said this, Teacher Guo snorted.

“But there’s a bunch of people saying weird things.”

"I am clearly fulfilling my filial duty and helping my master with the inheritance issue, but some people say that I am greedy for my master's inheritance."

"Don't be angry, just go your own way and leave them with no way to go."

“Hehe, yes…”

He laughed when he heard Zhang Yuan say that.

Teacher Guo’s resentment towards his colleagues is extremely deep.

Everyone has different life experiences, so Zhang Yuan can't say that he is exaggerating.

But he said that some people gossiped about him and accused him of coveting his master's inheritance.

This is why he doesn't want to get involved in this matter.

Not now.

The house is in your hands, the money is divided between both parties, and the court has approved it.

But if the house appreciates in value in the future, the family will still feel uncomfortable.

I always feel like you're taking advantage of my father or my ex-husband.

People's thoughts change at different times.

Today he will think of you after eating, but the day after tomorrow he will throw his chopsticks and smash the bowl when he sees you eat better than him.

Not to mention celebrities, even ordinary people, relatives, and friends do large transactions, such as real estate.

Even if the value increases in the future, it is easy to feel unbalanced and fall out with others, and you will no longer have any friends.

When people see that you have made so much money, they get so angry that they start to spread bad things about you.

So he just asked a few simple questions and said no more.

While I was free, I went to visit Mr. Yuan again.

The old man saw that he came more often recently, and instead of being annoyed, he seemed quite happy.

At this age, I like to have someone around me.

There's nothing big to do when seeing the old man, just drink tea, chat, and talk about work.

The next day, the house became lively.

"Brother Hua, are you finally free?"

Zhang Yuan greeted Liu Dehua and his group at the door.

The relief he mentioned was the wrapping up of filming for “The Warlords”.

"No, we still need to shoot several more sets."

“It’s not that easy.”

"Hello, Director Liu."

In addition to Brother Hua, there is also Liu Weiqiang, the director of "Infernal Affairs" and "Initial D".

I am an old acquaintance of Zhang Yuan.

After not seeing each other for many years, Director Liu recalled their first meeting in Hong Kong.

Things are wrong.

In the past, people came to Hong Kong to see him, but now it's the other way around.

I have to come to the imperial capital to meet him.

This change in the area of ​​contact also represents a change in the relationship between the two people.

There were already several people sitting in the yard.

Fan Bingbing, Jiang Xin and Zhu Yawen are all here.

We all gathered here today to discuss "Dragon and Phoenix", the first project of the cross-strait film industry.

Drink tea and chat.

Zhang Yuan came up and started fighting right away.

Except for Brother Hua, most of the Hong Kong actors originally scheduled to play the roles were rejected.

The film is in my hands, why don’t I support my own people?

"Wouldn't it be unbalanced in this way?" Liu Weiqiang sucked his teeth.

Originally, the male and female protagonists were both Lin Jianyue's people.

The heroine wants to use Shu Qi.

"Bingbing just won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress. Isn't that qualified?" Zhang Yuan asked back.

Liu Weiqiang: …

Now that you've said that, what else can I say?

The second female lead was originally Ho Yun-shih, an only child.

Must be changed, no room for bargaining!

The second female lead is set to be a financial strong woman, so she must have a strong temperament.

So he called Jiang Xin over.

And take special care.

"You have to lose weight again!"

"Women in the financial industry are all tall and thin."

"You're tall enough, but your weight..."

Jiang Xin was furious.

Every time I shoot a movie, they ask me to lose weight. Every time I shoot a movie, they ask me to lose weight. The worst that can happen is that I won’t act… but that’s not possible.

This is a movie!

And it’s not a low-budget art film.

But it’s a commercial film starring Andy Lau!
How many people would rush to take this kind of opportunity, even if it's the second female lead.

Jiang Xin thought that before she came to Zhang Yuan, she had no chance to come into contact with works of this level.

After coming here, I have already fed myself the female lead in a TV series, and now I have to feed the second female lead in a movie.

Moreover, the female lead is Fan Bingbing, who just won the Best Actress award. She knows she is not as good as the other actress, but she is still convinced.

Although Jiang Xin is bluffing, he is not a ruthless person who does not distinguish between right and wrong.

People with a straightforward personality like her don't have any bad intentions.

She was still very grateful to Zhang Yuan for giving her the opportunity.

So he rarely bowed his head and endured it, without saying anything back.

This actually made Zhang Yuan feel a little uncomfortable.

The second male lead is set to be a hotel decorator.

Zhu Yawen had just come out of "Apple", and his role was also a low-level worker, so this role was not difficult for him in terms of image and grasp.

This is also what makes Liu Weiqiang uncomfortable.

This means that except for the male protagonist, everyone else has been replaced by Zhang Yuan's people.

Hong Kong directors still hope to employ Hong Kong people.

"Wei Qiang, we also want to sell this film in mainland China."

"Bingbing and the others are great, I think the audience will like it." At this time, it was Brother Hua who acted as a middleman to smooth things over.

At the same time, he also winked at Liu Weiqiang.

Now the bosses in Xiangjiang have no objections, so you don't need to say anything more.

And Brother Hua also believes in Zhang Yuan’s judgment.

"Okay then, but there's an actor we want to use." Director Liu mentioned.

If others take a step back, you must also take a step back.

"Okay, you say."

Zhang Yuan thought that he should bring a Hong Kong actor into the crew.

As long as they are not problematic artists, I can tolerate it.

Unexpectedly, the person the other party mentioned was not a Hong Kong native, but an actor from mainland China.

"Han Yu, do you know?"

"Mr. Yang took special care of it."

Oh... Zhang Yuan thought about it.

There is no problem with that, it’s just a small role.

As long as this woman doesn't cause me trouble on the set, it'll be fine.

This famous "ye-style" artist has both poor ability and temper.

I have to take care of Jiang Xin later. She has a bad temper and she should not cause any trouble on the set.

Although Han Yu seems to be in the imperial circle, she actually started out in the Hong Kong circle.

He first worked with Golden Harvest and filmed the movie "Sakura" starring Guo Fucheng.

Later, he got in touch with the Eagle King.

So she spends all day bragging about how great her grandfather is.

If you really have connections, why do you want to hang out in the Hong Kong circle?

Before being bullied by Hua Yi, Liu Qianqian had never been to the Hong Kong circle.

Jing Dian, Lu Han, Ke Lan and other people with strong backgrounds have never been to the Hong Kong circle.

The one who is more similar to Han Xue is Mei Ting.

Both of them are from wealthy families, but their backgrounds are relatively ordinary.

Moreover, she and Mei Ting, one is from the Shanghai Theatre Academy and the other is from the Central Academy of Drama.

But they all dropped out of school to make money and eventually dropped out.

That’s right, Han Xue didn’t have a graduation diploma from the drama school, she dropped out.

Those who come from wealthy and well-connected families all know that they need to study hard. They would never give up a diploma from a professional college just to make money.

The relationship is neither good nor bad, but I'm anxious.

And she should be married by now, married to a businessman 19 years older than her, which outsiders generally don't know.

Liu Tao and Che Xiao married wealthy businessmen who were at least of the same age...

Every choice she made in her life was not something a child from a wealthy family would do.

"Okay, I have no objection." Zhang Yuan thought, although this woman has a good figure and looks, he should stay away from her.

Seeing that he had no objection, Director Liu relaxed a lot.

"But there is one more thing."

"I've read the script."

"Isn't the character of this heroine a little too...how should I put it?" Zhang Yuan touched his chin.

Silly and sweet and Mary Sue, these two words are not commonly used nowadays.

“It’s just awkward.”

"She is a working girl from the lower class, dealing cards in a casino and dancing in a dance hall, but she is so devoted."

"I have no desires and am full of righteousness."

"Don't you think the characters are very fragmented?" After hearing his words, Liu Weiqiang touched his nose and turned to look at Brother Hua.

how?

Zhang Yuan saw this and felt something was wrong.

Is there something you can’t tell?

"Zhang Yuan." Liu Dehua said with a smile: "There is one thing I haven't had time to tell you about this film."

"Ms. Liang Anqi donated 1000 million yuan privately."

"Liang Anqi..." Zhang Yuan reacted quickly after hearing the name.

"I understand."

Brother Hua smiled and patted his shoulder.

I sighed in my heart, thinking that otherwise he would make money while I would lose money.

The reaction is really fast!

Who is this Liang Anqi?

The fourth wife of the gambling king!

The main story of the movie "The Princess and the Dragon" is about a wealthy bachelor in the financial industry who has had three failed marriages and falls in love with a dancer from a lower class background.

Now that Zhang Yuan knows the sponsor, looking back, he understands everything.

Ms. Liang is from Foshan. She first studied ballet in Guangdong Province and joined the Guangzhou Art Troupe.

Later, he went to Macau to develop his career and attracted the attention of others at the party with his superb dancing skills.

I think the heroine's character and story are a bit contrary to common sense.

In fact, it is the fourth wife who is spending money to establish her own image!

According to the setting, the male protagonist has three failed marriages. Isn’t he talking about his first three wives?

The first three were all failures, but you are my true love...

This is pretending to be a pure and innocent person, and also making a sarcastic remark about the people mentioned above.

Romance movies are not expensive to begin with.

Generally the investment is 2 to 3000 million.

Now people can get 1000 million with just a wave of their hand.

It's still sponsorship, not investing in the film.

I can refuse to let you invest, after all, you still have to share the box office.

If someone sponsors you, who would refuse it?

This is just giving money for free.

Not only give money, but also sponsor the shooting scenes.

Liu Weiqiang said that the film will involve scenes of dance halls, casinos, hotels, and restaurants.

This woman took care of everything, using the family property under her name.

Others have achieved this level.

Not to mention changing the script, even choosing the actors is fine.

The professional ethics and bottom line of filmmakers are not as important as making money.

Actually, this person is quite amazing.

If it weren't for the second wife's daughter, she would have been able to gradually take control of the situation.

Zhang Yuan thought silently, trying to figure out the pros and cons.

He didn't speak for a long time. When Zhu Yawen, who was standing by, saw this, he started to think of something.

"The boss is good to me."

"When the company has movies, they always let me act in them."

"As the saying goes, if there is something to do, the disciples will do the hard work."

“Although I’m not a disciple, I’m also an employee.”

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhu Yawen thought that the boss was a principled man and would probably not be willing to accept the sponsorship and thus modify the character.

It has to be me!

He thought to himself, I have to think what the boss thinks and say what the boss doesn't want to say.

"Director Liu, I think sponsorship is not the most important thing. Audience love is the most important thing."

Hey, look at how righteous I am, the boss must be praising me!

Zhang Yuan: …

What did you say?

If you say this, and ask for sponsorship again, wouldn't it be like you are ignoring the audience and only care about money?

Zhu Yawen's words pushed him into a moral dead end.

Brother Hua and Liu Weiqiang were also embarrassed.

How can I say this...

Fortunately, he had a quick mind, otherwise someone else would have died.

Zhang Yuan raised his index finger, pointed at Zhu Yawen, and said righteously.

"Yawen, there is something wrong with your consciousness."

“Isn’t Ms. Leong On Kei a member of the audience?”

“Since she is the audience, shouldn’t we serve the audience?”

Zhu Yawen:!!!

Otherwise he is the boss.

A lot of high-sounding words.

"Next time before you speak, align the granularity with me."

Zhang Yuan glared at Zhu Yawen.

Don't speculate on the Holy Spirit.

"We don't care about other people's family affairs."

"We just make the film according to the sponsors... no, the audience's requirements." Zhang Yuan said steadily and made a closing statement on the matter.

"Okay!" Liu Wei Qiang agreed with a smile.

Brother Hua secretly gave him a thumbs up.

"I think he is reasonable." Brother Hua pushed Liu Weiqiang.

After things have been roughly arranged, Liu Weiqiang will ask someone to make a budget sheet for him for the remaining filming funds.

What Zhang Yuan meant by specific investment is.

Since it is shot with the support of film companies from both sides of the Taiwan Strait, all shareholders must contribute money in proportion and work together.

In particular, we have to involve China Film Group and Huaxia Film Group.

We still have to contact them for distribution in mainland China.

We had dinner together in the evening, arranged accommodation, and sent everyone to the hotel.

"go home."

"Let me take you home first." Zhang Yuan said to Fan Bingbing.

"This play requires dancing, you need to practice in advance."

“Did I agree to take the photo?”

"I'm busy, okay."

As soon as he said this, he crossed his arms and put on airs.

You keep rejecting me.

Do you know how many people are chasing me?
"Here." Zhang Yuan took out a plastic bag from under the seat.

"what?"

"My autographed photo, don't you want this?"

"300, enough for him to give out."

"You're going to spoil him." Although Fan Bingbing said this, she still took it with a smile.

Even though he was beaten harshly, he is still a family member after all.

Seeing that he was taking care of his younger brother, his attitude softened a lot.

"Don't worry, I just happened to be signing a movie called "Dancing Gate"."

"The character has to do hip-hop dance, and I was planning to practice it."

"Let's go together."

"That's good."

When Fan Bingbing said that he was busy, he was not lying.

In addition to "The King's Woman", she also signed a film called "Contract Lovers".

I only have two movies on hand.

Including "Dragon and Phoenix", there are three movies, and the schedule is very tight.

"Also, my studio has been established. I can't just take on acting jobs. I also have to make my own movies."

"I have contacted the director and screenwriter."

“Now we need a team and money.”

“And the qualifications for filming.”

"I already have a script. It's called Rouge Snow."

Fan Bingbing is very ambitious and is not content to be just an actor.

She wants to be the boss!

"Rouge Snow..." When Zhang Yuan heard the name, he thought of someone.

"Who did your director and screenwriter find?"

"Teng Wenji and Yu Zheng."

"Then you should come to me directly. Yu Zheng is my man."

"Ah, he's yours too?"

"This movie... I know."

"Rouge Snow" is the work of Yu Zheng.

And as usual, Yu Zheng plagiarized a bunch of Hong Kong dramas.

He doesn't just copy Qiong Yao, but copies anyone he catches.

Moreover, the market response of this product is very sensitive and it is very good at catching the trend of the subject matter.

Therefore, the situation where "fan works overwhelm the original works" often occurs.

Just copy it, as long as you make money.

I had no expectations of his moral bottom line.

As for Teng Wenji, he was well-known in the imperial circle as a "lustful ghost, a devil among flowers".

There are countless female stars who have been brutally attacked.

If it were someone with Bingbing's looks and figure, he would definitely be tempted.

But with me here, Fan Bingbing can be said to have brought in money into the group.

Even Director Teng couldn't do anything to her.

The most commonly used methods in daily life are completely useless here.

If you can't figure it out, I'll just tell you to get out.

Whoever spends the money has the final say.

I don’t care about your seniority.

This allowed Yu Zheng to take care of and keep an eye on things, and he didn't have to show up in person.

If the boss has to do everything, then what's the point of keeping you guys as his subordinates?

Chatted with her about filming.

The estimated cost of this TV series is not low.

It will cost 3000 million or more.

However, Fan Bingbing waved her hand generously and said that she would pay half.

In fact, if she wants to make money, just using her face is enough.

She came to me because she needed photography qualifications.

Plus the desire to maintain close collaboration.

As for how close...

"We're here." The vehicle arrived at a villa community.

"Would you like to come in and sit for a while?" Fan Bingbing looked at him expectantly.

"Let's talk more about the filming."

Zhang Yuan opened the car door.

"Let's go and talk about drama." (End of this chapter)
