Huayu: Start by asking ex-girlfriends for alms

Chapter 177: Tiantian is left to you. Her parents and I are relieved!

The scene in the coffee shop had not been completed yet, and Lu Zheng, who got the news, dropped his work and rushed over.

Only after Jing Tian finished filming a shot did he walk into the set.

"Director Ning, thank you for your hard work!"

"Director Zhen, welcome, welcome!"

After greeting everyone warmly and chatting briefly, he found a seat and sat down like a staff member, quietly waiting for the filming to be finished.

In response to this, Zhen Jiecheng kept his eyes on him with great interest, and occasionally turned his eyes to Jing Tian's face.

The CEO of Beijing Starry Film and Television Company.

Registered in 05, the entire company currently has only one contracted artist, Jing Tian.

Even though Jing Tian’s classmate Hao Hao was signed later, this did not prevent Xingguang Canlan and Hongxingwu from having the attributes of a workshop serving one person.

Therefore, the relationship between Jing Tian and Lu Zheng has sparked a lot of discussion.

Considering that Jing Tian did not bring his mother, there was one less person to share the firepower, all kinds of rumors spread, which were even more outrageous than those spread by Liu Yife and Chen Jingfei.

What Jingtian comes from an ordinary family.

He knew Lu Zheng when he was studying in the Affiliated High School. At that time, he was just a printer reseller.

Or maybe he met a big money man at the age of 16, and with the help of money, he got into Lu Zheng's Bentley with license plate number 9988, and since then he has been carrying bags worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to various high-end clubs to spend money.

Oh, by the way, 38-year-old Lu Zheng not only took possession of 16-year-old Jing Tian’s body and mind, but also had sex with all the girls living in the same dormitory with Jing Tian.

As for the truthfulness of the various revelations, Zhen Jiecheng is not involved in the matter and has no right to speak without investigation.

But Zhen Jiecheng is very clear about one thing:
When Zipper Brother from America visited in 98, 10-year-old Jing Tian went to greet him as a member of the "Little Swan Art Troupe".

He also gave a close hug to Zipper Brother and took a photo with him alone.

As for Lu Zheng, it is not known whether he has ever sold a printer.

The identity of Wanda’s senior executive and Lao Wang’s capable general has been basically confirmed.

What’s interesting is that no matter which search engine you use, there is no useful information about Lu Zheng.

Or very little and worthless.

The chairman of an entertainment company has no trace at all on the Internet?

Tsk tsk tsk!
Oh, by the way, there are also rumors that Da Tiantian is “Wanda’s little mother”.

The paparazzi, who lacked everything except courage, directly reported the matter to Xiao Wang. As a result, Xiao Wang, who always complained about everything, simply denied it this time.

As for why Da Tiantian will date the gambling king in the future.

Emmm, no one really thinks that the gambling king’s fame and social status were very low at that time, right?
As for why the gambling king dared to "offend" Da Tiantian?

Emmm, what is there that a gambler dare not do?
Besides, the adoptive father who had slept with Zhen Jiecheng for three years was framed by his agent for money in the future.

Compared to the king of gambling, Zhen Jiecheng would rather rush to the scene to watch the incident as soon as it happens in the future!

And ask from the bottom of your heart: Brother, how dare you?
It is impossible to remind my godfather in advance!
Zhen Jiecheng can enjoy this fun for the rest of his life! He will laugh at you for the rest of his life!

"Thank you for your hard work, Director Ning!"

"And everyone, thank you for your hard work!"

After finishing the coffee shop scene, Lu Zheng stood up immediately.

"I'll treat everyone to a meal as a reward for your hard work throughout the day!"

As he said this, he looked at Zhen Jiecheng.

"Director Zhen, are you free tonight? If it doesn't delay us, can we have a quick meal together?"

"Since Mr. Lu said so, I'm sorry to bother you. I'll just have dinner with you."

"Hahaha, no thanks! I can't say enough about welcoming you." Lu Zheng smiled and stretched out his hand, "Director Zhen, please!"

Lao Wang’s medium means tens of billions, so Lu Zheng’s meal naturally cannot be a roadside stall.

That's why people say Wanda is so generous. He called a minibus, took a large group of people including extras, and headed straight to the five-star hotel.

Moutai, go ahead!

Red wine, on!

I don’t know if it tastes good or not, I just order the more expensive one without blinking an eye.

Zhen Jiecheng didn't know if it was the same in other private rooms, but the cost of this table in the small room, converted into equivalent film, would be enough for Jiang Wen to wipe his grooves for several days!

"Tiantian, let's toast to Director Ning and Director Zhen."

"Okay, Uncle Lu."

"No, Mr. Lu, I've already made an appointment with Tiantian!" Ning Hao smiled and waved his hands, "Why call her director? Call her senior! Isn't she going to apply for the Beijing Film Academy?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I called you the wrong name!" Lu Zheng raised his glass, "I'll drink a glass as punishment."

"Director Ning, Director Zhen, I'll trouble you two seniors to take care of Tiantian from now on!"

After several conversations and drinks, the atmosphere became lively.

Ning Hao didn't even care about his shame anymore, and he kept praising Da Tiantian in various ways.

It's fine to praise the acting talent against one's conscience. After all, as a director, you are qualified to make comments, regardless of whether they are true or false.

But as a tone-deaf layman, he actually claimed that Da Tiantian's voice was like that of Zhou Xuan, the golden voice.

Who is Zhou Xuan? One of the top ten legends of Chinese pop music, and one of the earliest amphibious artists in the music and film industry!

The well-known "Night Demon City" is his representative work.

The old man passed away in 57. If he knew about this in the afterlife, he would probably be so angry that he would come back to life and dream about Ning Hao, and spit at the bastard a few times.

"Jiecheng, you are considered a member of the music industry. The songs you wrote before won many awards. Tell me! Am I right?"

"I" Zhen Jiecheng was speechless.

And Lu Zheng's eyes lit up.

I almost forgot!
Zhen Jiecheng is not only a great director, but also a talented person who is involved in and proficient in multiple industries!
Just like music.

twins, Li Wen, Sun Yanzi, and Zeng Li.

All the songs that Zhen Jiecheng wrote for them became popular!
If I were to write a song for Tian Tian.
"Director Zhen, what do you think of Tiantian's voice? Can she go far in the field of music?" Lu Zheng asked expectantly.

Damn it, don’t you know what’s going on?
I don't believe you haven't consulted a professional musician. Emmm, damn! He actually did: Zhang Yadong!

The producer of many singers, including Wang Fei, Dou Daxianer, Pu Shu, Xu Shaoyan, etc., is here to protect Da Tiantian.

But this guy's language skills are much better than Ning Hao's:
"Tiantian is a very hardworking and smart singer." (It's just that her voice is not good)

“She sings with her heart!” (All emotion, no technique)
"In the future, she will definitely be a singer who grows very fast!" (Money makes the world go round; if you don't have the ability, money can make up for it)
"Emmm, Tiantian's voice is very clear and she sings with emotion." Zhen Jiecheng decided to follow Zhang Yadong's example and praise her based on facts without violating his conscience. "Mr. Lu can collect more songs that suit Tiantian's style and bring out her strengths. It will definitely have a response in the music market."

"I think so too!" Ning Hao said while chewing on a lobster, "Singers, singers can only show their talents when they find a good song that suits them."

“How many of you can write and sing?”

"Isn't that the case with Liu Yifei? Her first album was quite popular, and people were meowing in the streets and alleys."

"In my opinion, the song you wrote for her, Jiecheng, deserves the main credit!"

Hearing this, Lu Zheng's eyes became even more fiery, and Da Tiantian couldn't help but widen her eyes.

And Zhen Jiecheng,

"I'm not!"

"I don't!"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"'Learn to Meow' has nothing to do with me at all!"

"That's not right? I heard the finance department chatting in the company last time, and they said that Hongxingwu transferred money to us to buy songs." Ning Hao asked in confusion.

"Then that's another song!"

"I just wrote the music, I don't even know what the lyrics are!"

"It is said that he wrote two lyrics in Chinese and Japanese. This one is included in the personal album, and the other one is released as a Japanese EP."

"I know which song it is, Senior!" Jing Tian blinked her big eyes and hummed the tune on the spot.
"You woooo ...

"Is this the song?"

"Emmm, yes!" Zhen Jiecheng nodded.

"Hey, Director Zhen, excuse me, do you have time next time?" Lu Zheng couldn't help but ask, "We'll charge the highest song purchase price in the industry!"

"Of course, this is not about money! Director Zhen, you don't need this little money. We just want to express our respect for your talent!"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I really don't have time next time!" Zhen Jiecheng shook his head.

Hearing this, Lu Zheng's smile became a little awkward.

But before he could readjust himself, Zhen Jiecheng continued:

"Brother Chen Long has called me to tell me that New Line has agreed to the conditions. Next, I will devote all my energy to the commercial action film project that is a collaboration between China Film Group, Hong Kong, and Hollywood."

"I just don't have the energy to write songs, nor do I have the inspiration."

"In fact, the song for Liu Yifei was also from my inventory."

Spread your hands,

"That's the only one left, it's really gone!"

Zhen Jiecheng's explanation did not disappoint Lu Zheng. On the contrary, his eyes became even hotter than before.

And this is exactly what Zhen Jiecheng wants to see.

There were several rounds of drinking and toasting until everyone was satisfied.

Lu Zheng arranged to send the staff who were shooting the MV back to the hotel, including Ning Hao and his wife.

A nanny car was sent to take Zhen Jiecheng home. However, after Lu Zheng enthusiastically led Zhen Jiecheng into the car, he did not get out again.

After closing the car door, the spacious rear space was filled with a slight hint of drunkenness.

Lu Zheng's assistant took out a set of tea sets and started to make tea.

It was only at this time that Lu Zheng spoke.
"Director Zhen, please don't take it as an offense if I'm so rude on our first meeting."

"No, no, Mr. Lu, you're welcome." Zhen Jiecheng waved his hand. "I have to thank you for your warm hospitality."

"Don't! It's good enough that you don't mind!" Lu Zheng took the tea brought by the assistant, pushed it in front of Zhen Jiecheng naturally, and raised his head, "Director Zhen, allow me to ask one more question."

"Is there a role suitable for Tian Tian in this commercial action film you are working on with Chen Long?"

"Mr. Lu, shouldn't you first ask me if I have a say in the casting?" Zhen Jiecheng asked back.

"Have!"

"Oh? Are you so sure? This is Chen Long's film, and Hollywood is involved! You should know that Hollywood is producer-centered."

"But Hollywood also has independent producers, right?" Lu Zheng laughed. "They call it the director capital system. To put it another way, it's just the director-centered system with a different skin!"

"Director Zhen, I won't hide it from you. I asked my assistant to investigate and analyze it while we were having dinner just now."

"You waited until after the Cannes Film Festival to formally discuss cooperation with Chen Long, just to gain enough confidence to fight for the right to speak."

"You are very confident, as confident as ever, even incomprehensibly confident, as if you are sure that you will win an award in Cannes!"

"But I do understand. Even without the Palme d'Or, your achievements are beyond the reach of countless people in the industry. If you are a genius, can you still be called a genius if you don't have confidence?"

"Oh? But many people also say that my Palme d'Or was taken care of by Director Wang and Zhang Ziyi!" Zhen Jiecheng interrupted.

“Wasn’t Wang Jiawei and Li An also taken care of by a certain director?” Lu Zheng did not evade the question and answered directly, “Besides, the quality of Parasite is obvious to all, and it has achieved great success in both word-of-mouth and box office.”

"The domestic box office is definitely going to exceed 100 million, which is a miracle in an art film!"

"At the same time, the film was released overseas in more than 100 countries and regions. The media can lie, but the film companies that bought the copyright are not fools!"

After a pause, seeing that Zhen Jiecheng did not refute, Lu Zheng continued,

"And you also brought China Film Group in. When it comes to Sino-US co-productions, Hollywood will definitely make some concessions. After all, they are also eyeing the Chinese market and will never offend China Film Group over this matter."

He is worthy of being Lao Wang's right-hand man. Although he is new to the entertainment field and lacks experience, his vision is there.

As we all know, the villains in Hollywood blockbusters are often wooly bears.

Either they are the old Russians during the period of integration, or they are the big Russians after the disintegration.

There is little mention of the Dongda Z government.

Guess why?
The dragon emblem of the Film Bureau is not just for decoration. Not only does it dare to take action, it does so with extreme cruelty.

But this is for external use.

Internally, there are always some people who can get through layers of review.

For example, Lu Chuan, that idiot, and Li An.

"There is President Han of China Film Group and there is the Palme d'Or."

"With your talent and Chen Long's support."

"So I dare to conclude that you definitely have a say!"

"In terms of casting, you should have some say and most of the right to make suggestions. And on the set, according to your usual practice, you should have absolute control, or at least the main say!"

His eyes were bright, waiting for Zhen Jiecheng's response.

And Zhen Jiecheng didn't keep Lu Zheng waiting for long.

Nod,
"You are right. This is the basic situation."

"I won't hide it from you. This project does have a role suitable for Tiantian."

"What's the price? How much? Ten thousand. Emmm, it's so dazzling!" Lu Zheng blurted out without thinking.

“But the problem is, this is a female protagonist!”

"Heroine?" Lu Zheng was even more excited, "I'll pay more!"

"Mr. Lu, this is not about money!" Zhen Jiecheng quickly stopped Lu Zheng who was about to make an offer, "Mr. Lu, don't be impatient, let's talk slowly!"

"What to talk about?"

"For example, let's talk about the cooperation between Jiecheng Film and Television Company and Wanda. Emmm, Starlight Brilliant?"

We are all smart people, there is no need to point it out.

"If I'm not mistaken, Starlight is planning to enter the entertainment market."

"To be precise, it is the cultural industry, including sports and entertainment industries."

"Compared to Xingguang Canlan, the scale of my company is far inferior. I am only qualified to become a partner because I am a local in the industry."

"No, Director Zhen, you are too modest!" Lu Zheng shook his head, "Don't force yourself, you have the ability!"

Zhang Weiping tied up Lao Mouzi and allowed New Picture to show off its power in the domestic entertainment industry, and even the cinema chains had to give in.

Hua Jie left with a large group of artists, so why can Huayi still maintain its position as the leader of private enterprises? It is precisely because of the directors headed by Xiao Gangpao.

The same is true for Jiecheng Film and Television Company. The colt of a tiger or leopard has the spirit of eating cattle before it is written. Although the plate is small, the future is bright.

Most importantly, Zhen Jiecheng is too young!
In the circle of directors, even a fool knows what this means at this age.

He alone is enough to deal with the wrong people, not just one of them, but also Ning Hao!

In addition to the hotly discussed "Tama Brothers" in the market, and in connection with the cooperation in "Let the Bullets Fly", Jiang Wen can also be counted as half a member.

Two and a half great directors!

This configuration is absolutely perfect for domestic entertainment!
Thinking of this, Lu Zheng's heart was moved beyond words.

Just as he was about to speak, he was suddenly stunned.

Wait, did I overlook something?
Wait, Zhen Jiecheng just said that Wanda will expand into the cultural industry?

How did he know?
From surprise to stupor, from confusion to contemplation.

He frowned for a long time before finally coming to terms with himself.

Perhaps this is genius? Learning by analogy?
Thinking about it, I tried to regroup my emotions.

"Director Zhen! The stars are shining. No, Wanda is looking forward to working with Jiecheng Film and Television Company."

"Next, I will communicate with Mr. Wang, and we will both set a suitable time to discuss the specific content of the cooperation."

"No problem!" Zhen Jiecheng nodded, "I am also looking forward to cooperating with your company."

"OK! Mr. Lu, let's talk about Tiantian next!"

"I heard from Ning Hao that Tiantian will start filming a movie right after finishing the MV shoot. How crazy!"

"It's called 'Anaconda', Director Zhen." Lu Zheng added.

"But I have almost finished writing the script, and it will be finalized soon. So this project will probably start in a month, and it may conflict with Anaconda."

"It doesn't matter. If we can stagger the work, that would be the best. If we can't, we'll stop working on Anaconda and wait until Tiantian is done with her work!" Lu Zheng said without any hesitation.

"Boss Lu, I won't hide it from you. This action movie is a big male lead movie by Brother Chen Long. The female lead is his daughter, who doesn't have many scenes. It's a bit like Huang Shengyi and Kung Fu."

"It's okay. We're not picky." After a pause, Lu Zheng added, "We were just lucky to have caught it. Under normal circumstances, it would be a scarce resource that you wouldn't even be able to find."

"Boss Lu, Tiantian's acting skills are not good enough! I have to find a way to improve her. After all, time waits for no one!"

"No problem!" Lu Zheng held Zhen Jiecheng's hand, "Don't worry, I will immediately notify the crew of Anaconda to temporarily stop production. You have the final say on Tiantian's next arrangements!"

"Director Zhen, Tiantian is in your care. Both her parents and I are relieved!"

Zhen Jiecheng: (Д)
wipe!
Is this a compliment to me?

But why does this trust sound so uncomfortable?
You can teach one pig and lead two pigs!

Considering that "Those Years" was waiting for Liu Yifei, Zhen Jiecheng simply let the group Wolong Fengchu debut.

"Hey, Sissi. Now that you've graduated, you don't have to go to school anymore. Isn't that great?"

"No way~ I'm not your senior who can take a break whenever I want. I'm busy with advertisements, commercial performances, and activities." Liu Yifei's sadness could be felt clearly through the phone.

"Senior, you don't know, I have to meow wherever I go lately. I'm about to meow and puke!"

"Hahaha! Then I'll help you say goodbye to meow meow meow for now!" Zhen Jiecheng said with a smile, "I'll introduce you to a new friend tomorrow!"

"Hey, Tiantian, Mr. Lu has already told you, right?"

"Yes, Senior, Uncle Lu told me. Senior, I will listen to your instructions from now on. I will do whatever you say. I will do anything."

Zhen Jiecheng: (￣ー￣)
Damn, this is true trust!

This... Isn't this moral kidnapping to bully honest people?

"Ahem, it's not as scary as you think. I'll pick you up tomorrow and introduce you to a friend."

"Hey, Lao Kang!"

"Do you remember what you said when I visited the military camp: There are no bad actors, only bad directors! As long as Tiao teaches well, it doesn't matter who comes!"

"Remember! What's wrong, Jiecheng?" Kang Honglei asked.

"I also told you at the time that I would ask you to help me teach two actors in the future, and you agreed very straightforwardly!"

"Well, yes, I did."

"That's no problem! Lao Kang, I'll bring them to you tomorrow! Please give them some pointers!"

"Hey! I thought it was a big deal!" Kang Honglei laughed, "Isn't it just some advice on acting? You came up and asked this and that, as if you were afraid that I would run away."

"Don't worry, I always keep my word!"

"Leave it to me! I promise to teach you how to act!"
