Chapter 398 Investment in 'Journey to the West to Conquer the Demons'
"Are you acting as a fox demon? This really doesn't suit you. It's better for you to play the 'bumbling monster'."

Zhou Xia really couldn't bear Tangtang's acting like a baby, and didn't want to continue this topic, so she wanted to do something with Tangtang that was beneficial to her physical and mental health.

"Why is she not suitable? Didn't you watch my role as Zixuan? She is a member of the Nuwa clan, and she is also a demon." Tangtang pushed Zhou Xia away, pouted dissatisfiedly.

"Zixuan is a saintess type, how can she be a demon type. Your temperament and appearance are not suitable. It's okay for you to play a witch or empress. Forget about a witch. She is too tall and won't be that enchanting." Charming feeling."

"Then tell me, who do you want to play?" Tangtang said unconvinced.

"Why are you tormenting me so much? I haven't decided yet. If I have a letter, I'll tell you the head office as soon as possible."

"Yiyi, arrange a leading role for me, okay? I'll listen to you in the future." Tangtang continued acting coquettishly.

"Isn't it? For a role?" Zhou Xia looked strangely at Tangtang with deep eyes.

"Then you just agree to it." Tangtang looked at Zhou Xia with a smile, and blew into Zhou Xia's ear, and moved her little hands.

"You really promise me everything?" Zhou Xia hesitated, was Tangtang testing him?
"Yes, I promise you everything!" Tangtang blinked her bright eyes, showing her true selves like a fairy.

"That's not okay, I'm a man of principle!"

Zhou Xia took a deep breath, and said righteously, Tangtang obviously had a smile on his face, and mmp in his heart, so he wouldn't be fooled.

"Really, I promise not to cause trouble in the future and just be obedient all the time, isn't that okay?" Tangtang didn't care, and looked at Zhou Xia with a smile.

"It's not enough to be obedient all the time. How long have you been, don't give me three or two months." Zhou Xia said speechlessly.

"Two years, okay? I'll be 30 in two years... and my parents will be urging me." Tangtang's voice became low and her expression was actually sad.

"Don't be like this, there are still two years left, don't worry, I will give you an explanation." Zhou Xia had no choice but to pat Tangtang on the shoulder and comforted him.

"Then you agreed to give someone a role?" Tangtang immediately looked at Zhou Xia excitedly.

"You, is this a way for me?" Zhou Xia looked at Tangtang with a happy face in surprise.

"What else can I do? You can't cry all day begging you to admit that you are my boyfriend!"

Tangtang curled her lips in dissatisfaction and shook Zhou Xia's arm: "Hurry up and promise me."

"Okay, okay, there will be a role assigned to you."

"Thank you director, I will definitely work hard to complete the role and seize this good opportunity." Tangtang responded seriously and funny.

"Really, is it okay to play a cameo?" Zhou Xia teased.

"Hmph, it must be the protagonist."

"Protagonist, then I want to pick chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, what do you say?"

Tangtang blushed suddenly, and thumped Xia Zhouxia, "Why do you always like to mess around, can't you be normal? Besides, you have to film tomorrow."

"Don't worry, I'll be gentle."

Zhou Xia smiled and started to act. Tangtang resisted a few times, and then reluctantly complied.

…………

The next filming continued every day, and occasionally Zhang Zhao and Yang Tianzhen would come to the set to see the situation and report some things to him.

The Shanghai Film Festival in June sent an invitation letter and wanted to invite Zhou Xia to be the award presenter.

Zhou Xia, as the Best Actor and Best Newcomer Actor in the previous year, was the first time he won an award, and since he is from Shanghai, he naturally wanted to support him.

In a blink of an eye, the filming of the TV series took another half a month, and it was mid-May. On this day, Zhang Zhao came to the set in person.

"Is there anything that you need to go to personally?" Zhou Xia took advantage of the transition time and walked aside with Zhang Zhao to discuss in detail.

"Boss, Master Xing's new movie "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" has passed the review. There are many film and television companies that want to invest. I'm afraid I won't be able to win this opportunity for the company."

"Can't we win it? Can't we pay more to squeeze others away?" Zhou Xia looked at Zhang Zhao strangely.

"Pay more money and take less account share?" Zhang Zhao looked at Zhou Xia in surprise, and only the boss would say such a plan.

"That's right, I don't think Lord Xing doesn't value this, right?" Zhou Xia said with a smile, besides being good at making comedy movies, Master Xing is also a very successful businessman!
"Okay, I will go back and continue to contact the producer of Master Xing."

"Well, is there anything else?"

"Yes, it's mainly for this matter, Master Xing is choosing a male lead for a new movie, I heard the news from his producer.

He has already met several popular mainland actors, including Deng Chao, Li Chen, and Wen Zheng, and I heard that you are also a candidate.But there has been no invitation yet, is the boss taking the initiative to fight for it? "

"Really, is there still such a thing?"

Zhou Xia couldn't help thinking of this movie. At that time, Herald played the leading role, but now Herald is not as popular as at that time. He must be more popular than those few auditions.

Of course, his salary will definitely be higher, and his stature is also a bit tall. In terms of image, he is not very suitable for Sanzang.

However, stature shouldn't matter, image and temperament, make-up, and acting skills are enough, it's not a big problem.

"But I have two movies to make next, and I don't have time at all. What if the schedule conflicts?"

"Boss, haven't you always wanted to cooperate with excellent directors at home and abroad, this opportunity is rare.

Besides, if you're filming, just arrange everything and let the people below do it. It shouldn't be a problem to spare a month or two, right?
Moreover, Master Xing's level of director has been recognized by the circle. If this cooperation is happy and fate is formed, if he can sign his next film to Xia Hualai, then we Xia Hua will have one more person besides you in the future. A blockbuster director. "

"It's reasonable to sign the movie made under Master Xing, but it's more difficult. Well, I'll try to adjust the schedule as much as possible."

Zhou Xia thinks it makes sense, he really wants to cooperate with Master Xing once, and if he can sign the other party's next movie as Xia Hua's investment, then Xia Hua will indeed have a big director.

"Then I'll go back and pass on the boss's message to Master Xing's producer, Feng Zhiwei?"

"Wait, let me think about it." Zhou Xia pondered.

If you really want to cooperate with Master Xing, you should be more thorough, not only for the next few movies, but also for the distribution rights of this movie.

After all, "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" sold more than 12 billion at the box office, making it the box office champion of the year.

Speaking of which, because of this movie, Brother Huayi and Master Xing have since parted ways.

In 2012, Xingye's Weiying Investment Division produced the movie "Journey to the West Conquering the Demons", and signed cooperation agreements and supplementary agreements with Hua Yi successively.

Due to his good evaluation of the film market, Master Xing and Hua Yi's king verbally agreed that if the box office revenue exceeds 5 million yuan, Hua Yi can give Master Xing a box office dividend.

Later, on the issue of box office dividends, the two parties signed a second supplementary agreement by mail.

In the end, "Journey to the West Conquering the Demons" achieved a box office revenue of 12.48 billion yuan. According to the verbal agreement, Huayi's dividends and income to Zhou Xingxing should total 1.77 million yuan.

But Hua Yi only gave 8602 million yuan.

For this reason, Xingye's Weiying Investment sued Hua Yi to the court, demanding that the defendant pay 8610 million yuan in income distribution.

In the end, Hua Yi won, and Master Xing stopped cooperating with Hua Yi and fell into Ari's arms instead.

Because Zhou Xia hated some Xiangjiang comedy directors and actors, some Xiangjiang filmmakers disliked him.

If Master Xing chooses a partner, he will definitely choose Huayi first.

Therefore, if you want to compete with Huayi, you should be more sincere.

Huayi guarantees a minimum of 5 million issuance, but what about Xia Hua's minimum guarantee of 6 million or 7 million?

Zhou Xia quickly made a decision, and he looked at Zhang Zhao.
