Chapter 132 The Crew Visits
"Is there any director who remakes a historical masterpiece? Do you know the big director of CCTV? Zhangjialing Village is planning to build a film and television city next year. It would be great if we can attract another masterpiece by taking advantage of this opportunity." Zhang Guodong heard that these film works will be in the future Although they are all considered rare and high-quality products, they are still far from the complete fame he envisioned in his heart.

"You want to make a masterpiece, and it happens that next year CCTV will film Three Kingdoms. CCTV has been planning this TV series for a long time, and it is estimated that the preparations are almost ready by now. If you try your luck, I can recommend it for you. "

Hearing "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Zhang Guodong suddenly remembered that the 94 version of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" seemed to start filming next year. This TV series took countless people's efforts and took four years to complete. In order to pursue the restoration of historical scenes, When filming the Battle of Chibi, it took half a year just to set up the scene, and spending money was like flowing water.

"How can such a good opportunity be missed? You call quickly!" Zhang Guodong urged Director Zhang to make a phone call in a hurry. The two walked to Director Zhang's office. Five people, director Wang Fulin is the chief director of this filming, director Zhang managed to find out the contact number of chief director Wang Fulin, but when he called, the other party heard that he wanted to invite the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" crew to a village in Qin Province to shoot, so he directly hang up the phone.

Now that he knew that the filming of the masterpiece "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" had not yet started, how could Zhang Guodong give up easily? After inquiring that the chief director Wang Fulin was discussing the crew planning with the leaders of CCTV, Zhang Guodong and director Zhang came to the gate of CCTV and waited for a long time. After waiting for three hours, director Wang Fulin came out from the gate.

"Hi Director Wang Fulin, I'm a lover of the Three Kingdoms. I want to build a film and television studio and invite the crew of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to our hometown to shoot. I wonder if I can bother you for 10 minutes and let's have a cup of tea together."

Director Wang Fulin originally ignored Zhang Guodong who rushed over rashly, but when he talked about building a film and television city, director Wang Fulin stopped.

"You want to build the Three Kingdoms City?" Wang Fulin looked at Zhang Guodong and asked.

"Yes, if we can invite the crew of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to shoot in my hometown, we are willing to build a Three Kingdoms City." Zhang Guodong replied hastily.

"Young man, do you know how much money is needed to build a Three Kingdoms City?" Wang Fulin suddenly became interested in the young people in front of him. Reason hopes to get his attention, but the young man in front of him is a little different from other young people, confident and calm.

"How much to invest depends on the needs of the crew. Director Wang, let's sit down for a while!" Zhang Guodong invited.

"Okay, just finished today's work! Let's go to the opposite teahouse!" Wang Fulin nodded in agreement, and the deputy beside him was a little curious that Director Wang would actually agree to this young man's invitation.

When they went to the teahouse, Zhang Guodong and Wang Fulin sat facing each other, while Director Zhang and Wang Fulin sat beside him.Zhang Guodong told Director Wang Fulin about the situation in Zhangjialing seriously, and said that it was God's will to meet CCTV filming "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

"You are very good! If all this is true, you are still a rare good village chief. How much money do you think you can spend on building the Three Kingdoms City? Let me tell you the truth! The shooting of the Three Kingdoms was only two months ago. It has been decided, and the script editor has not yet been decided, and the filming of the entire Three Kingdoms requires more than ten Three Kingdoms bases with different scenes, and the large and small ones require nearly a million investment." Wang Fulin looked at Zhang Guodong and said with a smile.

"Zhangjialing Village has the economic strength to build a large Three Kingdoms City, and we will start building it in the spring of next year. If Director Wang is willing, he can send someone to Qin Province to inspect it first. You can lead all the construction of the Three Kingdoms City, and I will only pay for it. " Seeing that Wang Fulin had begun to let go, Zhang Guodong said.

"So, this is an investment of tens of millions! I don't know what Mr. Zhang wants? What is your purpose for building such a big Three Kingdoms City, and how can you convince me that what you said is true?" Wang Fulin said slowly Drinking tea slowly, put down the cup and said.

"As for the truth of what I said, Director Wang, you can just call the provincial government of Qin Province and ask. The purpose of my construction of the Three Kingdoms City is to cooperate with each other! "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" will be broadcast. I want the first sponsorship. The naming position." Zhang Guodong said.

"I can't give you an answer to such a big matter now, why don't we invite Minister Zhao to come later, he happens to be on CCTV."

After Wang Fulin finished speaking, he beckoned to his assistant. The other party nodded and got up and left. After more than ten minutes, he came in with a white-haired man in his 60s. It turned out that he was the vice minister of the Ministry of Culture of Huaguo. "The first person in charge of TV drama shooting.

When Wang Fulin's deputy came back, he must have cleared up Zhang Guodong's details, and the two sides of this conversation quickly entered the topic.

Zhang Guodong sincerely wants to build a film and television city, and Wang Fulin also has to prepare the shooting location of this epic masterpiece early. For the exterior part, he has arranged personnel to go to various parts of the country to find shooting locations more than a month ago. The key is to shoot interior scenes and some special scenes. This has to be done as soon as possible.

Zhang Guodong is willing to build a Three Kingdoms City for the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" drama according to director Wang Fulin's request, which can greatly reduce the pressure on CCTV's funds, and the two parties quickly reached a preliminary cooperation intention.

Zhang Guodong promised to invest more than 2000 million yuan to build a Three Kingdoms City within two years. The scale of various halls, city gates, city walls, moats, etc. will be made according to Wang Fulin's requirements. The entire Three Kingdoms City will be divided into six parts, each responsible for " Dozens of different shooting tasks in Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Minister Zhao agrees in principle to the cooperation between the two parties. At that time, the venue use fee will be calculated according to the normal price. After the TV series is released, the first naming rights will belong to Zhangjialing Village.

"Mr. Zhang! In a few days, CCTV will send special personnel to Zhangjialing Village. I hope that the film and television city can be built in the next year. The most troublesome part of an ancient building is sculpture and painting. At the end of 91, I hope we can successfully build Zhangjialing Village. Start shooting."

Wang Fulin smiled and shook hands with Zhang Guodong. This cooperation was completely sent by Zhang Guodong. Wang Fulin also admired young people like Zhang Guodong very much.

"Director Wang doesn't need to worry about the funds. The first 500 million funds will arrive before the end of this year, and the second 1000 million funds will arrive on time before the end of next year. I also hope that the Three Kingdoms City Film and Television Base can be completed as soon as possible."

After setting a 2000 million cooperation project in this way, Zhang Guodong had a smile on his face when he left the teahouse.

"Mr. Zhang, CCTV attaches great importance to the shooting of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" this time. I heard that the budget given above is in the hundreds of millions. How many movies and TV series can you make with 2000 million yuan? How many benefits do you get?" Seeing Zhang Guodong smiling happily, Director Zhang couldn't help but said with some concern that he really regretted Zhang Guodong's 2000 million, how many movies he could make if it was given to him!
"This time, I would like to thank Director Zhang. I will treat you to dinner later! I am born in this place in the capital. Finding a place is my thanks for your recent help. By the way, if you have anything good in the future If you don’t have enough funds to make a movie or a TV series, you can find me. If the script is good, I will invest.”

Director Zhang was satisfied with Zhang Guodong's promise and took Zhang Guodong to a French restaurant. This restaurant is one of the most high-end restaurants in Beijing. It is basically filled with white-skinned foreigners. The two of them ate more than 1000 yuan for a meal before they were satisfied. out of the restaurant.

Zhang Guodong was delighted that he did not expect the matter to be resolved so easily. He asked director Zhang Ouyang Xinlan where the TV series was filmed, stopped a taxi by himself and walked towards Dongdan. Extras and passers-by watched from the outside. Zhang Guodong searched for a long time but did not see Ouyang Xinlan.

He found a space and entered an alley. This courtyard was also one of the filming scenes of "Longing". Several actors were standing outside a room where a camera was shooting. Zhang Guodong suddenly heard Ouyang Xinlan's voice.

It was Ouyang Xinlan's opposite scene, Zhang Guodong stood in the corner and ignored him, after a while Ouyang Xinlan came out of the room after the filming was over, she was discussing with the director why she didn't see Zhang Guodong.

"Come on, everyone has worked hard, let's eat!" A middle-aged man rode a tricycle to the entrance of the alley, all the actors ran to the tricycle, and Ouyang Xinlan also followed the crowd to the entrance.

"Brother, hurry up, it will be gone if it is too late!" A young man in his 20s saw Zhang Guodong urging him slowly, and he obviously regarded Zhang Guodong as an extra.

Zhang Guodong smiled and waved his hands to express his goodwill. He walked slowly to the tricycle and all the lunch boxes had been distributed. Ouyang Xinlan was holding a lunch box and chatting with the hostesses, but she didn't see Zhang Guodong walking towards her.

Several actresses saw Zhang Guodong standing behind Ouyang Xinlan and wanted to remind her, Zhang Guodong smiled and beckoned everyone to keep quiet.

"Guodong, why are you here!"

As soon as Zhang Guodong covered Ouyang Xinlan's eyes, Ouyang Xinlan dropped the lunch box and turned around to hug his neck.

"I came here this morning, how can I eat lunch at this time." Zhang Guodong lovingly stroked his girlfriend's back, she seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

"We're filming! Everyone eats box lunches, I don't eat a meal! Did you come to the capital to see me? Why didn't you call early! I have a movie these days! I can't accompany you around the capital." Ouyang Xinlan left Zhang Guodong's arms and said apologetically.

"How did you know it was me just now? What if you hugged me wrong?" Zhang Guodong said with a smile. Envious, these days Ouyang Xinlan often talks about how powerful her boyfriend is, and their ears can hear cocoons.

"Hmph! Don't tell me! We won't finish filming until ten o'clock tonight! Why don't you find a place to wait for me..."

It's only after 6:[-] pm, Ouyang Xinlan had dinner and was still filming, she told the staff on the side to ask Zhang Guodong to wait in a yard first, at this time everyone had finished eating, the director had already notified the actors to be in place, Ouyang Xinlan I went to the shooting site again without eating.

Seeing his girlfriend's busy figure, Zhang Guodong is also happy. How happy he is to be able to take his hobby as a career. Ouyang Xinlan has every right to choose to live a comfortable life, but she chooses acting hard road.

Zhang Guodong took a look at the crew. The crew at this time is different from the later generations. All the actors, including the director, have a lunch box for each of them, and the leading actors don't have a bunch of people following them. Everyone is the same.

Unable to stop in the room, Zhang Guodong came outside the shooting scene and saw everyone's devotion to the shooting. It's not unreasonable for this TV series to be popular all over the world.

At 08:30 in the evening, the weather was getting cooler. Ouyang Xinlan took the time to bring a coat to Zhang Guodong. Putting on the coat, Zhang Guodong planned to walk around the alley and buy some supper for Ouyang Xinlan.

The night scene in Beijing is not as good as later generations. Many old alleys use dim light bulbs, and there are many small stalls on the streets. Zhang Guodong saw his well-decorated roast duck restaurant. He was a little hungry so late, so he bought a roast duck. I brought some side dishes and pancakes, and after leaving the roast duck restaurant, Ouyang Xinlan must have many friends, so I bought a lot of snacks at the food stall, and returned to Dongdan Hutong.

Back to the shooting location, the filming crew had already started to clean up the scene. After Zhang Guodong waited for a while, he saw Ouyang Xinlan running out wearing a cloak.

"Honey, wait for it! These few days are the days when I play the most, and I'm ignoring you! Why do you buy so many things?" Ouyang Xinlan said looking at the things in Zhang Guodong's hands.

"Isn't it because you didn't eat in the afternoon! Besides, you've lost weight! You can hide something to eat in the future when shooting, so you won't be hungry." Zhang Guodong handed a snack to Ouyang Xinlan, freeing one He grabbed her cold little hand.

"Xinlan, we're going back to the hotel first, so we won't wait for you!" Several actresses came out after changing their clothes, and said with a smile when they saw Ouyang Xinlan.

"Guodong, let's go back together! We just ate so many things together!" Ouyang Xinlan dragged Zhang Guodong and the cast members to the hotel. Although the environment here is not very good, it is also very clean.

The entire two floors of the hotel were rented out, and some of the main actors of the film crew lived here. When everyone heard that Ouyang Xinlan's boyfriend was coming, they made a fuss over to watch, and soon a pile of food was divided up.

"Handsome guy, I heard that you invested in Xinlan's first movie. Xinlan and I are good sisters. If there is any suitable role for me in the future." A good-looking actress gave Zhang Guodong a light hand With a wink, Zhang Guodong smiled lightly.

"This year, CCTV plans to shoot "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". I plan to build a Three Kingdoms City in Zhangjialing. I talked with director Wang Fulin at noon. The film and television city plans to start construction in the spring of next year. You may have the opportunity to go to our village to film in the future. , when the time comes, I will invite everyone to play in our village." Zhang Guodong ignored the young girl and said to everyone present.
