Entertainment 1998

Chapter 221 220, A loud drum does not need a heavy hammer

The crew of "17 Years Old Bicycle" is not too large, with all the staff members together less than 80 people. However, even for such a small crew, the daily expenses are around 10.

This includes staff salaries, venue rental fees, equipment rental fees, film consumption, etc.

The filming of the movie has started for two days. As the director, Wang Xiaoshuai's biggest headache every day is not the actors' performances being up to standard, but attracting investment from local governments.

Up to now, there is still a gap of 800 million RMB out of the investment budget of 365 million RMB.

Therefore, when Wang Xiaoshuai heard Zhou Xun say that someone could save him 20 days of shooting time for his movie, he was immediately attracted.

At the shooting site, I took out my cell phone, found a few phone numbers, and called them one by one.

"Lao Lou, I, Xiao Shuai, are you planning to shoot a movie called Purple Butterfly? How about I recommend an actor to you? It's Jia Hongsheng, the old actor who starred in your movie Suzhou River."

"Lao Jia, I, Xiao Shuai, heard that you are planning to shoot a movie called "Platform". I would like to recommend an actor to you. What do you think? This actor is very handsome and has excellent acting skills.

Yes, you definitely know him.

His name is Jia Hongsheng."

"Lao Guan, I'm Xiao Shuai.

I heard that you are planning to shoot a movie called "Let's Go, Get in the Car". How is it? Are you short of actors? How about I recommend an actor to you? Yes, he graduated from the Central Academy of Drama, his name is Jia Hongsheng.

I don’t think I need to introduce him any further.”

...

It's just so refreshing.

Zhou Xun just said a word and director Wang Xiaoshuai helped her get the job done. As for whether it would succeed in the end, that depended on Jia Hongsheng's ability.

He can't get the role, even if I have a lot of connections, because we are all in the art film circle, we don't care about the capital, when choosing actors, we just look at whether the actor is suitable.

After making the call and putting the phone in his pocket, Wang Xiaoshuai turned to look at Zhou Xun. His meaning was very clear: I have already done what you asked me to do for you, and now it's your turn to fulfill your promise.

"Um…"

In response, Zhou Xun smiled slightly and lowered his voice.

"Director, aren't you curious? Just now you asked them to make a confused expression, but these guys all did it, and they passed it in one take?"

“I’m a little curious.

But I was busy just now and didn't notice what happened. Tell me about it."

"It's very simple, just like the question you asked me yesterday, why was it that I couldn't shoot the scene in the morning, but in the afternoon, I was assisted by God.

Now, I'll tell you the reason. It was because Jiang Feng gave me some pointers. He told me a ridiculous thing he did when he was in junior high school. He stole his father's clothes and went out on the street. I instantly understood how I should perform.

And it was the same today. Before the filming of the movie started, those guys from the Central Academy of Drama surrounded Jiang Feng.

Then, Jiang Feng also told them a little story. "At this point, Zhou Xun stopped talking.

We are all smart people, and some things can be understood once we think about them. If I continue to talk about it, it will not only be meaningless, but also a bit insulting.

"Um…"

After listening to Zhou Xun's story, Wang Xiaoshuai nodded.

"Okay, I know what I should do."
Fenglian Plaza
Located at No. 18 Chaoyangmenwai Street, Chaoyang District, Beijing, it is considered a landmark building in the area. The area of ​​office building A alone is as high as 74000 square meters.

And in this place where every inch of land is valuable, Huayi Brothers Company rented two entire floors.

Standing on the 9th floor of Building A of Fenglian Plaza, looking through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows at the busy streets below, Wang Jinghua felt a little proud. At the beginning of last year, she was still riding a bicycle to help Chen Daoming and Jiang Feng contact business.

In the blink of an eye, a year and a half passed. Not only did he buy a BMW, but he also established a new brokerage company in conjunction with Huayi Brothers Media, in which he served as the president and held a 51% stake.

Now, if I had to say that there was something that was not going well, it was that Jiang Feng refused to follow me, even though I offered him the most generous conditions...

Jiang Feng, if you follow me to Huayi Brothers, then in the future, whenever Feng Xiaogang makes a movie, there will definitely be a role for you in it.

"Eh…"

Wang Jinghua, standing in front of the window holding a cup of coffee, sighed.

Forget it.

It's better to accommodate Jiang Feng, because he is the most dazzling star artist under his command? !

The first album "Twilight", with the support of the Spring Festival Gala, sold 600 million copies in one fell swoop, a result that even the queen of pop, Wang Fei, the king of pop, Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung and others could not match.

The second album "He Must Love You Very Much" has only been released for 2 days, and the total sales in Asia have exceeded 5 million copies as of today...

According to estimates by industry professionals, the final total sales of Jiang Feng's album may not be as terrifying as the first one, but with the dual support of the "Treasure Island Earth Dragon" turnaround and the hit TV series "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", it will be no problem for it to break through 1 million copies.

Huh…

Suddenly, Wang Jinghua frowned slightly, as if she touched something?
Jiang Feng's first album used "Dragon Scales of Heaven and Earth" as the Easter egg song. Because the song was very appropriate and aroused certain emotions in the country, the official media spontaneously promoted it and it was also performed on the Spring Festival Gala.

Jiang Feng's second album used "Love Is You and Me" as the Easter egg song. Not only did Wang Fei orchestrate the chorus of more than 2 big-name singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan, but it also triggered gratitude from Taiwan. You use your influence to make the world pay attention to the disaster area and to us, so we will definitely repay you.

The best way to repay you is to buy your music album. In just 5 days, the sales of "He Must Love You" in Formosa Province exceeded 30 copies.

Are both of these coincidences?
impossible? !
It should be that Jiang Feng did it intentionally, using specific songs at a specific time to promote his music album.

Thinking of this, Wang Jinghua no longer had the mood to drink coffee. She put the coffee cup on the desk, picked up the car keys from the desk, and prepared to go out.

Today, I have to have a face-to-face meeting with Jiang Feng no matter what. What else can you do to hide it from me? !

But at this moment, there was a knock on the office door.

"Dangdangdang..."

"Come in."

"Mr. Wang, a lady named Fan is here to see you. She said she was introduced by Jiang Feng." As soon as Wang Jinghua finished speaking, her assistant pushed the door open and said while standing at the door.

"Well, let her in."

Wang Jinghua, who was planning to go out directly, took a few steps back and sat on the sofa with a relaxed look on her face.

It seems that it doesn’t matter if I meet Jiang Feng a little later, since this guy is currently filming near Nanluoguxiang.

Just as I was thinking about it, a beautiful woman who looked a bit chubby walked in from outside.

"Hello, Sister Hua, I'm Fan Jiuyi, and Brother Feng introduced me here..."
