Huayu started as a substitute director

Chapter 534 Chang'e Holding Rabbit 2
After arranging the employees’ worries, Yutu started the moving process.

The weather was cold, and workers in work clothes were moving equipment onto a truck, securing it, and then transporting it away.

The Wangs of Huayi, who live across the street, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of their upstairs house. They drew aside the curtains and saw snowflakes flying outside. They also saw a constant stream of people coming in and out of the building across the street.

Many workers were wearing thin clothes and doing hard labor.

"It seems like Yutu is going to be moved away. After so many years, I still haven't gone to see what Yutu looks like." Mr. Wang's tone seemed to contain regret and melancholy.

It’s a pity that after so many years, I didn’t even know what the opponent’s base camp was like. I’m sad that such an opponent is about to leave.

This move indicates that Yutu will reach a higher level!

"The principal has been becoming more powerful, but we have been standing still for so many years!" The king couldn't help but sigh.

The principal has been getting stronger and stronger, constantly surpassing himself, but they have not changed at all.

Even if the stock price rises sharply, the basic things do not rise. Not only that, the share of the film and television industry has also been squeezed.

"It's okay, brother. We are also cooperating with Hollywood now. As long as the movie does well at the box office, we can cooperate with more movies. In the future, we may not be worse than the principal." Mr. Wang let down the curtains and said with confidence.

The collaboration is on a superhero movie in the DC series, which is better than the one with the principal.

The king always asked: "What stage has the cooperation with Warner reached now?"

"The project has been approved, but they said the investment amount is too large and additional investment is needed. They want us to contribute another 100 million yuan." Mr. Wang said.

"Add another 100 million?" Mr. Wang frowned.

That’s 200 million, and they’ve already invested 100 million before.

"Yes, originally Warner said that we didn't have to pay for the money, they would pay a large part of it themselves, or find other investors, but blockbusters like Batman v Superman and Wonder Woman involve too much money, and they are really stretched to the limit." Mr. Wang explained.

These projects are all public and there is no deception, but only Warner itself knows whether there is a real lack of funds.

Anyway, it's half true and half false, true and false.

“I didn’t expect that big Hollywood companies are also short of money.” Mr. Wang murmured.

"What you said is true. Who in this world doesn't lack money? Now they want to build the DC Universe to compete with Marvel, so of course they have to raise funds from many sources."

Mr. Wang said again: "The project they gave us is still a good one. It belongs to the DC Universe. You know how popular Man of Steel is all over the world."

Last year, "Man of Steel" fired the first shot of the DC Universe and was very popular around the world.

The box office was higher than that of Iron Man 1 that year.

Of course, Disney is behind Marvel, and Warner is behind DC. The operating bosses behind the two are different, so Marvel is more famous.

But compared with China, the level is definitely much higher.

"I'm just worried that there might be some traps." The king was always doubtful.

"How could that be? No way. Didn't Alibaba invest in Mission Impossible 5 and Star Trek 3? Wanda is also seeking to acquire Legendary Pictures. LeTV and Perfect World are both cooperating with Hollywood. Our pace is considered slow," said Mr. Wang.

Domestic capital is now investing in Hollywood movies in a huge way, including some institutions such as Fosun.

Bona, Huayi, China Film Group, and Shanghai Film Group all want to enter Hollywood and cooperate with local companies. This is the trend.

Some of those who entered Hollywood made money, while others lost money.

Because Hollywood will not give you particularly good projects when it comes to film lists, they will only give you high-risk film projects.

This will definitely require tuition fees. For example, China Media Group claimed to invest $15 billion in Lionsgate's 50 films, but there is no news about how much was finally executed or what the profit and loss situation was.

It is not cheap to make a movie in Hollywood. Paramount was originally in financial difficulties and wanted to sell its business or itself. Many institutions around the world expressed interest in acquiring it.

Among them, Wanda and Alibaba want to acquire this company.

But Paramount successfully revived its way of making movies by relying on domestic capital.

It can be said that the company was able to revive thanks to those domestic suckers, otherwise the Big Six would have become the Big Five.

"Okay, just be careful." The king didn't say anything. This was the general trend.

If we want to compete with Yutu and not fall behind, we must go to Hollywood. That is the international market, and the domestic market is too small.

Fang Hong had no interest in investing in Hollywood movies. Although he knew what kind of movies could make money, he would rather use his own money to invest in a project that would only pay off in two or three years.

It would be better to do something else that would be more practical.

It would be better to make blockbusters by yourself and improve your production level, and then release movies like "Interstellar" and "The Martian".

Why use his own money to invest in other people's production when he can't even finish his own project?

It’s no secret that Yutu will move to a new film and television base. Basically everyone in the industry knows about it.

A year or two ago, there were reports that Yutu was building a film and television base in Huairou New City, which was a high-tech studio combining virtual and reality.

I can only sigh that Yutu is becoming bigger and bigger.

At the gate of Yutu Film and Television Base in Huairou New City, a black business car stopped and Liu Tianxian got in and out.

She was wearing a fluffy black mink coat that wrapped herself tightly. Her face was white, translucent, and a little rosy, probably because she was cold.

It's still very cold here, and the wind feels like a knife cutting across your face.

She came back last night and slept until noon today, so she didn't come with Fang Hong. She came here by herself after getting up. She was wearing brown glasses and carrying a high-end bag, dressed like an elegant lady.

In front of us is the scene of large trucks driving into the film and television base. After stopping inside the base, workers in work clothes get off the trucks one by one.

Then they worked in perfect harmony to move the items from the car one by one, including tables, benches, and a lot of equipment.

Some of these were carried by workers, and some were carried by several people. There was a busy scene inside and outside the gate of the film and television base.

Even though the weather is cold, we work hard.

Liu Tianxian adjusted his glasses and looked into the distance. The previously desolate place was now filled with new buildings.

Opposite the building, there are several square buildings similar to the Water Cube. They are tall and have a high-tech feel. These should be LED studios and virtual and reality studios.

"Hey hey hey."

In front of her eyes, there were several large cranes hoisting a huge bronze statue. The statue was tied with thick ropes and looked tall and heavy.

Dozens of workers were working hard below, some pulling ropes to align the bronze statue with the large base on the ground.

The bronze statue is about 12 meters tall and can be described as a giant. Looking up at it from the ground is quite shocking and gives a sense of oppression.

At this time, the statue is moving slowly, fearing any mishap.

Because of the distance, Liu Tianxian looked up at the entire bronze statue, which was the statue of "Chang'e holding a rabbit", similar to the opening of the Jade Rabbit movie.

It’s just that this time, the face of "Chang'e" is more delicate, three-dimensional and vivid, and more like Liu Yifei.

It's much clearer than the blurry one seen at the beginning of the film.

"This man actually erected a statue for her. What a joke." Liu Tianxian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she was in a good mood.

A few years ago, this man once said that he wanted to erect a statue of Yutu at the entrance to the park, just like Disney did. Now it has come true.

He became even taller and more domineering, as if he was afraid that others couldn't see him.

Remember, Fang Hong also said that he wanted to erect a statue in Hollywood. I wonder if it can be realized?
"Big wave." Liu Tianxian walked on the snow with a "crunching" sound.

Look at Lu Dabao in front, he has a cigarette in his mouth, the ash falls off when the wind blows, and his hair is messy in the wind. I haven't seen him for such a long time, he has become more mature.

At this time, Lu Dabao was looking up at the statue being lowered and upright little by little, and then slowly placed on a large base.

Hearing someone shouting, Lu Dabao turned around and saw it was the boss lady. He immediately threw away his cigarette, stepped on it, and ran over happily.

He rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Sister Fei, are you here to see the principal?"

He used to call her Fairy Sister, but now he calls her Sister Fei. This is more respectful, and Fairy Sister sounds like a joke.

But Liu Tianxian doesn't care what others call her.

"Well, are they moving the company?" Liu Tianxian said as they looked at it.

"Yes, Mr. Fang said that we have to work normally here within a month. Our timeline is very tight. We need to move all the things from the old company over. Some new things need to be purchased and put in place one after another." Lu Dabao said.

It’s not enough to just move those things out. After they are transported over, they have to be put away properly. It’s not easy to go up and down the stairs.

After all, to ensure that employees can get to work without delay, office equipment is necessary.

"Then be careful and don't hurt anyone." Liu Tianxian warned.

"I'll pay attention, Sister Fei." Lu Dabao nodded.

Liu Tianxian looked at it silently, and seeing that nothing was wrong, he walked around the crane statue and went into the gate.

Seeing that the proprietress was about to leave, Lu Dabao hurried to follow.

"Just do your thing and don't worry about me." Liu Tianxian thought he was going to send her off and let him go about his business.

"It's okay, it won't delay anything." Lu Dabao still followed, seeming a little hesitant, as if something was wrong.

"Then don't follow me. I'm going to find Fang Hong. What are you going to do?" Liu Tianxian walked. She was going to show her affection. It would be inconvenient to bring a light bulb with her.

"Oh!" Lu Dabo hesitated for a moment, then mustered up the courage to ask, "Sister Fei, I want to ask you for a favor?"

"What help?" Liu Tianxian asked puzzledly.

"We've moved to a new base. There will definitely be a lot of people here in the future, so we will definitely need convenience stores like supermarkets," Lu Dabo continued.

"What do you want to say?" Liu Tianxian was a little confused.

This matter is not her business, so what's the point in telling her?

"I brought my parents to Beijing. They are both from peasant families, and my sister doesn't have a job, so I wanted to find something for them to do. I thought there must be a supermarket here, so I wanted to open a supermarket here and arrange a job for them. Can you talk to Mr. Fang for me?"

Lu Dabao said this with a smile on his face. He knew that Liu Tianxian had a kind heart, and it was best to tell her.

The principal's position is too high. They used to have a good relationship, but he hasn't seen the principal in all these years, and they have rarely spoken in the past two years, so there is a gap between them.

To put it bluntly, it's fear and a sense of awe.

"This matter." Liu Tianxian said she understood.

Lu Dabo nodded several times to indicate yes, and looked at her hopefully.
