Huayu timely rain, they forced me to be the top star

Chapter 317 Star Master Shen Teng: Follow A Yang! Tang: Honey is taking a bath
"Reward?" Zhang Yang approached Liu Yifei and said, "You are completely mine, what other reward can I give you?"

"I bought the Dunhuang flying goddess service set you wore last time." Liu Yifei replied lightly.

Zhang Yang smiled: "Don't worry, I will definitely give our mother some advice."

"I'm not sure if you have a chance at the three Golden Horse Awards for Best Actress, but I will definitely help our mother win the Best Supporting Actress award so that no one will have any regrets."

"Don't shout. When did you become our mom?" Liu Yifei rolled her eyes proudly and playfully.

The two walked back to the monitor, and Zhang Yang's eyes changed and he said, "Yifei, you should pay close attention to Aunt Liu's condition. Sometimes you have to act like a 70-year-old lady with every move and every look."

Liu Yifei sat next to Zhang Yang and nodded seriously.

"Exon!"

"Snapped!"

She started acting again after Liu Xiaoli entered the Youth Photo Studio.

After a conversation, Zhou Xingchi turned to look at Liu Xiaoli with an inexplicable smile in his eyes: "When my wife was young, she must have been as pretty as Deng Lijun."

With Zhang Yang's detailed teaching, Liu Xiaoli has experience, and has been in the entertainment industry with Liu Yifei for more than ten years, so her acting skills will naturally not be bad.

Thinking back to what Zhang Yang had just said, a look of melancholy appeared on her face.

But he immediately put on a smile and said in a smug tone, "Speaking of XX Liu Lijun, is there any man in the whole city of Hangzhou who doesn't know her?"

"."

Liu Xiaoli was chatting with Zhou Xingchi.

"Our mother acts better than you." Zhang Yang said suddenly.

Liu Yifei:?

After a conversation, Liu Xiaoli sat in front of the camera with a reserved look.

Zhou Xingchi smiled kindly and said, "I will make you look fifty years younger."

Liu Xiaoli suddenly stopped being nervous, and she sat up straight with a smile on her face: "Thank you for your comfort. Let's take the photo. One, two, three."

Snapped!
"Card!"

"Pass."

"Guarantee one."

With Stephen Chow around, Zhang Yang is ready to strive for perfection.

He hasn't acted in any movie since "CJ08" in .

The reason why he was able to guest-star in "Miss Granny" this time was that Zhang Yangxiao persuaded him with both emotion and reason, and the script was good enough, so he was willing to guest-star in a fantasy role, and he must squeeze out all the value.

"Okay, let's stop here for today's filming!"

"Everyone is going to go to XX Hotel to attend the opening ceremony."

"Miss Granny" became popular before it was even filmed, so Zhang Yang only held a launch ceremony and did not invite the media to hold a launch press conference, but there was definitely a launch banquet.

"Xingzai, thank you for giving our movie a good start." Zhang Yang raised his glass to Zhou Xingchi.

"Yangzai, you should thank your future mother-in-law." Zhou Xingchi joked.

"You are an outsider, so I will definitely thank you first." Zhang Yang laughed: "We can go home and talk about it later."

"You are this." Zhou Xingchi raised his thumb, drank the wine in one gulp and asked: "I'm doing you this favor, but you have to put more effort into the script of "The Mermaid"."

Zhou Xingchi wanted to film the story of "The Mermaid" a long time ago. He had the specific inspiration in 2010 and started writing the script. The creative logic has many similarities with "Lust, Caution", including elements such as undercover and seduction, and introducing thinking about good and evil.

"Xingzai, don't you know me yet? I want to invest in this movie, and let Chenhai distribute the mainland distribution. How about that?" Zhang Yang did not flatter Zhou Xingchi.

The first Chinese-language film to gross over 3 billion yuan, apart from the box office revenue, how much profit it can bring, anyone who understands will understand.

Zhang Yang knew that it took Zhou Xingchi four years to write the script for "The Mermaid", and filming did not start until the end of 14. After it was completed in 15, it took more than a year to edit and do special effects, and it became a hit during the 16 Spring Festival.

By next year, the Xiang family will violently ban Zhou Xingchi, and his situation will become very difficult. Naturally, he will not refuse the olive branch of cooperation thrown by Zhang Yang. Now is just a nail in the coffin.

"If the asking prices are similar, I will definitely choose you." Zhou Xingchi answered straightforwardly.

He rarely has friends who resonate with him in all aspects, and Zhang Yang is one of them, so he cherishes him very much.

"That's enough." Zhang Yang smiled and began to show his value: "Xingzai, I think there are a lot of materials that can be used in this film, but they can't be combined reluctantly, otherwise it will collapse."

"Mermaids, oceans, what do you think of an environmental theme?"

"And you often write about tragedies, but this time we went the other way and deliberately created a happy ending that was different from the traditional fairy tale."

Hearing this, Zhou Xingchi's eyes lit up and he began to communicate with Zhang Yang with great interest.

Before I knew it, he had drunk a few more glasses and was a little drunk before returning to his hotel room.

"I just heard that you are going to collaborate with Stephen Chow on a movie?"

In a room of the hotel, Liu Yifei walked out, wiping the water droplets from her hair.

"Yeah." Zhang Yang responded, "'Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons' earned nearly 1.5 billion. I hope the next one I work with her on will earn over 3 billion."

Liu Yifei's mouth twitched slightly: "You really dare to think so."

"Three billion, even two billion, I will..."

"So what?" Zhang Yang turned and looked at her.

"Whatever you say, it's up to you." Liu Yifei raised her chin: "I will satisfy you in any way you want."

"Two billion?" Zhang Yang confirmed.

"About 2.5 billion." Liu Yifei said after a moment of hesitation.

Zhang Yang is good at creating miracles. It is hard to say what the market will be like in a few years, so she decided to be conservative.

"Okay, it's a deal." Zhang Yang stood up and hugged Liu Yifei: "Then today, I will inspect the goods first."

Liu Yifei:?

Silent all night.

the next morning.

After breakfast, Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei rushed to the crew and started to get busy.

The filming time passed quickly and it was evening in the blink of an eye.

"It's almost dark, you can go on to your first scene."

"Hopefully it'll be done before dinner."

Zhang Yang explained the scene to Liu Yifei and then began to arrange the filming.

In order to shoot this scene, we deliberately chose a closed road section that had just been built and not yet open to traffic.

A bus slowly started from its stop.

Liu Yifei walked out of the "Youth Photo Studio" wearing the same clothes that Liu Xiaoli wore yesterday.

"Camera No. 2, adjust the angle so as not to capture the heroine's face."

The moment she walked out of the "Youth Photo Studio", the heroine "Liu Lijun" had regained her youth.

Giving a close-up at this time will reduce the sense of expectation and create a sense of reversal.

"Exon!"

"Snapped!"

Liu Yifei began her performance.

She walked down the stop with the cadence of an elderly person’s steps.

When she saw the bus leaving, she immediately ran after it.

"Move the camera down there and take a picture of my feet~"

Zhang Yang directs the photographer.

The image on the monitor is deflected.

Liu Yifei started running after the bus, with the picture blurred.

The driver saw this scene through the rearview mirror and his expression changed, as if he was saying, "Is this woman crazy?"

squeak!
Although he looked speechless, the driver still pulled the handbrake to stop the car.

Liu Yifei successfully caught up with the bus, went to the front door to get on the bus, took out her senior citizen card and swiped it, then nodded to the driver: "Thank you, driver brother."

The driver's expression became even more interesting, his eyes widened as if to say: "You actually swiped the senior citizen card." "What nonsense are you talking about?"

puff!

"Hahaha, his expression is so funny. Where did you invite this actor from?" Liu Shishi couldn't help laughing.

She tried really hard not to laugh, but she couldn't.

In fact, besides her, Reba and Cheng Duling also couldn't help it.

"Card!"

"pass!"

Zhang Yang shouted.

He turned to look at Liu Shishi with a smile in his eyes: "He is Hao Jian~"

The driver he hired was none other than Shen Teng from Happy Twist.

Shen Teng appeared on the Spring Festival Gala stage for two consecutive years in 12 and 13, and has already become a little famous in the industry.

However, for those who don’t pay much attention to sketches and drama, they may not be familiar with it, or at most look somewhat familiar.

He will have to wait until "Happy Comedian" is broadcast in the future before he can really become well-known, and then wait until "Charlotte's Troubles" is released before he becomes completely popular and his status soars.

"How despicable?" Liu Shishi couldn't help but continue laughing: "How can someone call someone like that?"

Zhang Yang: “.”

"I remember now." Cheng Duling clapped his hands gently. "He was on the Spring Festival Gala. What was the name of the skit he performed? 'Today's Happiness'?"

"That's right." Zhang Yang nodded slightly: "His name is Shen Teng, and he has appeared in two Spring Festival Galas. The character he played in the skit is called Hao Jian."

"Our Dudu still has a better memory."

Liu Shishi raised her eyebrows slightly and patted his stool with her hand: "What do you mean?"

"Yo yo yo~" Liu Yifei's teasing voice came from the side: "When I arrived, I saw someone provoking the director. It turned out to be my granddaughter."

Liu Shishi made a guest appearance as Liu Lijun's granddaughter in "Miss Granny".

Little Liu Yifei, she is really going to become “Little Liu Yifei” in the movie.

However, the one who was happy about this matter was Liu Shishi, not Liu Yifei.

Being willing to play this role shows that Liu Shishi no longer cares and can face it calmly.

This made Liu Yifei feel that she lacked a point to grasp Liu Shishi.

"Grandma is fine." Liu Shishi raised her chin, revealing her delicate swan neck.

Liu Yifei:!

Why are you stretching your neck so long?
"Director, is there any problem with my acting?" Shen Teng appeared beside Liu Yifei and rubbed his hands.

"Brother Teng, you acted very well." Zhang Yang waved to Shen Teng: "Take a look at it yourself, if you have any more ideas, you must keep one."

"Okay, let me take a look." Shen Teng was flattered.

Although he has appeared on the Spring Festival Gala twice in a row, that was in the skit program, which was of the type "Without Benshan on the Spring Festival Gala, everyone dances together."

As a graduate of the PLA Art Academy, he is still a junior student in the film industry and has not made any achievements.

Compared with his popularity and capital background, he is not even worthy of carrying Zhang Yang's shoes.

But Zhang Yang was very polite to him, and could be described as "approachable".

This made him feel very comfortable and he was determined to maintain this relationship.

"I think," Shen Teng said narcissistically after watching the replay, "this performance is impeccable."

Snapped.

Zhang Yang snapped his fingers: "Then pass!"

"Let's eat first, and then we'll shoot the next scene."

Zhang Yang gave Mo Xiangwan a look, and the latter immediately asked the staff to bring people in to distribute lunch boxes.

"Brother Yang, there is no money for this guest appearance, but at least you have to have enough food, right?" Shen Teng said with a smile.

"Of course~" Zhang Yang nodded: "Take one more box, eat one box, throw one box away, and if you round it up, you are also the one who threw my lunch box."

"That's so embarrassing." Shen Teng looked shy, but when the lunch boxes arrived, he took three at a time.

Liu Yifei and the other girls watched the two of them going back and forth, with smiles on their faces all the time.

When the meal officially started, Zhang Yang and Shen Teng started talking about business: "Brother Teng, what is your vision for the film industry?"

"If Director Yang wants to support me, I definitely can't refuse." Shen Teng said with a smile on his face.

"I have this idea." Zhang Yang was also very direct: "I have watched all the plays produced by your Happy Twist team, and I think they are all suitable for adaptation into TV series, especially the one called "Charlotte's Troubles"."

"Brother Teng, you can go back and tell the three directors that I am willing to buy shares in Happy Twist and invest in filming "Charlotte's Troubles" and adapt it into a movie."

Shen Teng almost choked on the steamed egg and said in disbelief: "Director Yang, are you kidding?"

"I'm telling the truth." Zhang Yang nodded seriously.

Happy Twist has had a glorious period for a long time, and you can definitely make a lot of money by investing in it.

As for "Charlotte's Troubles", Happy Twist has always wanted to adapt it into a movie. Originally, they wanted Wang Ning, one of the two mainstays of the show, to play the male lead, but they could never get the investment.

It was not until Shen Teng's popularity soared again in 14 after he starred in the well-known sketch "Help or Not" that he was able to attract investment with him as the male lead. It was a total of 2100 million yuan from Happy Twist, New Classics, Tencent and Yida Film and Television Media.

Filming started in April 14 and was wrapped up very quickly, but the industry had not been optimistic about the film until the hit movie "Happy Comedian" was released in September 4. It then became a box office dark horse and grossed 15 billion yuan.

Twenty times the rate of return!
"I can invest 25 million. I will be the producer, director, and screenwriter, and I will also be responsible for marketing." Zhang Yang smiled at Shen Teng.

Shen Teng:!
It turns out that there really is such a thing as pie falling from the sky in this world.

"call!"

Shen Teng took several deep breaths before he calmed down.

He suppressed his excitement and talked to Zhang Yang about his intention to cooperate.

After confirming that Zhang Yang really had a plan, he was very excited.

After finishing his meal, he said goodbye immediately and prepared to go back to the company to talk with several directors.

"By the way, the male lead is you, and this is the condition for my investment." Zhang Yang added as he sent Shen Teng away.

Shen Teng's face flushed red, and he held Zhang Yang's hand: "Brother Yang, you will be my real brother from now on."

Zhang Yang: “.”

Back on the set, Zhang Yang picked up the loudspeaker again.

The next scene to be filmed is about a few young men flirting with and chatting up the rejuvenated Liu Lijun.

Considering Liu Yifei's appearance, this kind of thing is not surprising.

But Liu Lijun had the mentality of a 70-year-old woman. She felt offended when a few young men who were as old as her grandson approached her, so she fought back hard and made a lot of jokes.

This part is over and today's shooting work is completed.

Back at the hotel, Zhang Yang began working on the rough cut of the film.

Seeing how busy he was, Liu Shishi and Liu Yifei were very obedient and went to sleep in a group.

It's impossible to stay alone in an empty house.

Zhang Yang, who was busy until twelve o'clock: "?"

"How about adding me?"

"Punishment." Liu Yifei raised her eyebrows: "As long as you are not afraid of punishment!"

Zhang Yang: “.”

He decisively called Yang Mi: "Mi, I miss you."

"Yifei and Shishi are not behaving like human beings. Why don't you come and visit them on set?"

Tang Yan, who helped answer the phone: “.”

"Mi Mi is taking a bath."

Zhang Yang:?
