Entertainment 1998

Chapter 757 756, This guy is definitely here to mess things up

"Mr. Han, you're back quite well..., uh, Mr. Harvey?"

Seeing that it was Han Shanye's Audi A6, Yu Dong ran over and opened the door attentively. At this time, he discovered that the person sitting in the car was Harvey Weinstein, the founder of Miramax Films.

"Mr. Harvey, aren't you returning home?"

Everyone in the Chinese film and television circles knows that Harvey Weinstein came to Beijing two days ago. The movie "The Yellow Sea" was a box office hit abroad and was hailed as the most exciting oriental movie.

Harvey Weinstein came to negotiate the transfer of the video tape copyright, TV broadcast copyright, network copyright and script adaptation rights of "The Yellow Sea".

Since many of the copyrights of "The Yellow Sea" were in Jiang Feng's hands, Harvey Weinstein and Jiang Feng's agent Wang Jing spent two days talking before they finalized these matters.

But how come this guy just left and came back in the blink of an eye? !

Moreover, this Audi A6 from China Film Group had already followed Han Shanye to Cao County in southwestern Shandong. How come it appeared here again in the blink of an eye?
Just as he was wondering, Yu Dong saw Harvey Weinstein smiling obscenely.

“I originally wanted to leave and had already arrived in Hong Kong Island, but when I heard from Mr. Han on the phone that Jiang was returning to Beijing today, I flew back.

Just 5 minutes ago, I arrived at the Beijing Film Studio and met the crew of "Hidden in the Dust" who had rushed back from Jiang's hometown.

So, while they were storing their equipment and washing up, I came to this hotel to have a meal. ”

Harvey Weinstein spoke cheerfully, explained a few words to Yu Dong with a smile, and then gave him a warm hug.

While hugging, Harvey Weinstein noticed the young and beautiful Zhang Ziyi behind Yu Dong.

"Hey girl, I think I've seen you somewhere before?"

“Hello Mr. Harvey, my name is Zhang Ziyi, and I previously starred in the film My Father and Mother directed by Zhang Yimou.

Well, you also spent 50 US dollars to buy the distribution rights of that movie in the North American film market. " Zhang Ziyi smiled sweetly. After two years of practice, her English level has improved significantly. She can communicate with Harvey Weinstein face to face and is very fluent.

"Oh, yes, yes, I remember you.

It seems you also starred in the movie "Rush Hour 2" by Qin Long! "

"Yes."

Seeing that Harvey Weinstein really remembered her, Zhang Ziyi's smile became even brighter.

"Okay, let's go together. I love Chinese food. Jiang once cooked a lot of delicious food for me when we were filming the movie 'The Departed' in Chicago." As he said this, regardless of whether Zhang Ziyi was happy or not, Harvey Weinstein put his arm around her shoulders and half-hugged and half-pushed her into Xin Fusheng Restaurant.

Well, before entering the door, Harvey Weinstein reached out and patted PG in purple!

wipe…

Seeing this scene, Yu Dong raised his finger towards Harvey Weinstein's back.

What Jiang Feng said was indeed true. This guy was a complete old rogue. He would never let go of any young and beautiful girl who could arouse his interest.

Well, Jiang Feng is more reliable. He likes older and mature women.

Now I don’t know whether those brokers I contacted have actually gotten the job done?

Yu Dong was just thinking about it when he suddenly saw a large group of people coming from the direction of Beijing Film Studio, and the leader of this group of people was Jiang Feng's right-hand man Dawei.

"Great..."

"Hello, Brother Dong!"

"Dawei, where are President Han, the director, and Director Jiang?"

"The director and Mr. Han are taking showers at the Beijing Film Studio. They are smelly from the long ride in the car.

Brother Feng is telling the editor from Beijing Film Studio about the things to pay attention to when making the movie "Hidden in the Dust". Well, it will probably take another half an hour for them to arrive.

But Brother Dong, President Han, the director, and Brother Feng all said that we should eat first and not wait for them. " At this point, Dawei, Liu Jie, Mark, and others, who were in a good mood, embraced Yu Dong and walked into the restaurant together.

As soon as these guys entered the restaurant, they started shouting.

"Boss, serve the wine and food. Today, we will drink from noon to night and not stop until we are drunk!"

……

The total distance from Cao County to Beijing is 630 kilometers. After 8 hours of driving, the convoy arrived at the Beijing Film Studio on time at 12 o'clock.

When we arrived at the location, there were staff members unloading the truck. The cameras, lighting equipment, props, etc. used by the crew were basically all rented by the "Hidden in the Dust" crew from the Beijing Film Studio. Now that they were back, they naturally had to return these rented equipment first;
There were staff members returning the cars. It was a huge convoy. Except for two off-road vehicles and a black RV, which belonged to Li Xing and Jiang Feng, the rest of the vehicles belonged to the Beijing Film Studio. Now that they were back, they naturally had to be returned.

Some people went to take a shower. Among them were staff members, actors, and big names like Han Shanye, Zhang Yimou, and Gong Li. After a bumpy ride back from Cao County, everyone naturally wanted to take a shower first to refresh themselves before going to Xin Fusheng Restaurant to enjoy the wrap-up banquet.

Jiang Feng feels a little bitter!

The first thing he did when he arrived at the Beijing Film Studio was to explain the precautions to the editor, especially at the beginning of the film, where Jiang Feng had to edit in several flashbacks.

Fortunately, the editors at Beijing Film Studio are all professionals. Jiang Feng only mentioned it briefly, and they completely understood what he meant. So, they all patted their chests and said:

Brother Feng, don't worry, the rough cut will definitely satisfy you.

Seeing that everyone had no problem, Jiang Feng smiled and returned to his home in the Beijing Film Academy community.

Although Beijing Film Studio also has a bathhouse which is usually open to the public, Jiang Feng still went back to his home to take a bath.

There is no way. The stuff is too big and if they see it, they will easily feel inferior. So when I have good stuff, I can only hide it.

Although I haven't been home for a month, the house is kept pretty clean.

The cleanliness of the house has always been taken care of by my classmate Guo Xiaodong's girlfriend Li Jia. Whether it is the kitchen, bathroom, living room, balcony or bedroom, there is a feeling of cleanliness and brightness.

Well, it seems that I should provide some more resources to Guo Xiaodong and Li Jia.

After returning home, Jiang Feng was taking a shower in the bathroom and was thinking about this mess. Li Xing, who had returned home early and finished taking a shower, came over and pushed open the bathroom door with a smile.

"Brother Feng, let me make it clear in advance that it's not that I want to watch you take a bath, it's mainly because the situation is urgent and there are some things I must discuss with you."

"Can't we discuss it behind closed doors?" Jiang Feng was almost laughing out of anger.

"How about closing the door?
I can’t see your expression, so I don’t know if what you said is your truest expression.”

wipe…

Jiang Feng wanted to swear.

This beauty's eloquence is getting more and more powerful. What she says leaves me speechless.

"Brother Feng, since you have no objection, I will start talking."

"Harvey Weinstein didn't leave. He came back from Hong Kong Island. His purpose is to have a good chat with you about your next movie. As far as I know, Harvey Weinstein prefers you to shoot an original script and then turn the original script into a super IP, just like Saw. Even if you don't shoot it, you can authorize others to shoot it."

"Okay, I understand." Jiang Feng nodded and motioned for her to continue.

“Brother Feng, when you went to the editing room of Beijing Film Studio, Sister Hua called me. She said that with the box office success of the movie Yellow Sea, you have once again proved your ability.

There are a lot of film and television companies in Hollywood that have contacted me and want me to direct their scripts, such as the Final Destination series, the Fast and Furious series, or Harry Potter. "

"Well, let's talk about it later."

Jiang Feng thought for a moment and then expressed his thoughts.

"Xiaoxiang, ask Sister Hua to reply to them and tell them to wait until we finish filming the movie Transformers before we talk about it."

"Ok!"

Speaking of this, Li Xing smiled gently.

"Brother Feng, there is something you may not know. There is news in the underground broker circle in Beijing that someone is willing to pay 70 RMB to invite a beautiful sister to accompany you for one night..."

"Go away, you are joking."

Before Li Xing finished her words, Jiang Feng waved at her.

In fact, Jiang Feng also knew about what Li Xing said.

It was a letter from Han Shanye that tipped off.

Han Shanye said: "Yu Dong is a very honest person. When he heard that Bona Film Group could invest in your film, he paid 85 yuan out of his own pocket to help you find a beautiful girl in the circle."

Hearing this, Jiang Feng was simply at a loss whether to laugh or cry. If you have the 85 yuan, can't you just give it to me? You're still trying to bribe me in a roundabout way.

Of course, even though he knew it, Jiang Feng would not admit that it happened in front of Li Xing.

Because some things can be done and said, some things cannot be done but said, and some things can be done but cannot be said.

There are things that can be done but not said. If they are spoken out, at best there will be a mess, and at worst you will be beheaded. This has profound historical lessons.

Without mentioning others, let’s just talk about the real estate prodigy Luo Zhaohui from Hong Kong Island. It was because he said things he shouldn’t have said that he ended up committing suicide.

Jiang Feng took a shower very quickly, about 15 minutes. After taking a shower, he put on denim shorts and an old sweatshirt and walked out of the bathroom feeling refreshed.

Although he knew that he had something to do in the afternoon, Li Xing couldn't help but kiss Jiang Feng when he saw how handsome he was. Then he touched him again. Feeling that he had taken advantage of him, he took Jiang Feng's arm and went out and downstairs together.

It was early July, and the weather was hot. Around 7 p.m. was the hottest time of the day. Jiang Feng and Li Xing had just walked out of the corridor when they felt a heat wave coming.

The weather is hot, so of course we can't walk there.

Jiang Feng held the keys in his hand and ran to the parking space to get the car. Li Xing was wearing high-heeled sandals and a red dress today, so it was not very convenient for her to drive.

However, when Jiang Feng drove the car to the doorway, he was suddenly stunned. She, who had been smiling sweetly just now, now had a cold expression on her face.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Feng frowned.

"Yu Dong has been making a big fuss in the broker circle to select a concubine for you. One broker found my sister and said that my sister is particularly suitable for you in terms of age, experience, and appearance..."

"Ha ha…"

Before Li Xing finished speaking, Jiang Feng burst into laughter.

This group of brokers are really talented. It seems that I must get to know them.

...

Xin Fu Sheng Restaurant.

Today, the restaurant is packed with guests. From the restaurant downstairs to the private room on the second floor, all seats are occupied.

That’s not enough.

The hotel restaurant manager vacated one of the staff dormitories on the third floor and used it as a single room, which was then able to accommodate 3 people.

The single room where Jiang Feng, Li Xing, Han Shanye, Yu Dong, Zhang Yimou, Gong Li, Harvey Weinstein and others sat was the largest and was located near the stairs. The name of the single room was [The Infernal Walker]!
Well..., as long as it is a movie related to Chinese people, no matter it is directed by the director or starring actors, and it gets high box office around the world, Xin Fu Sheng Restaurant will always name the movie as the name of a single room in its hotel.

"Jiang, I suggest that we all have a drink together to celebrate the official completion of your film." Jiang Feng, who arrived last, had just walked into the private room and sat down when Harvey Weinstein raised his glass.

"Thank you!"

Seeing Harvey Weinstein stand up, Jiang Feng, Li Xing, Han Shanye and others stood up at the same time, clinked glasses with him with a smile, and then drank it all in one gulp.

After finishing the wine and putting down the glass, Jiang Feng thought that he should eat some food. However, just as he picked up the chopsticks, Harvey Weinstein stood up again with the glass that had just been filled.

"Jiang, you have shown me your magic. The Yellow Sea was invested with less than 500 million US dollars, but it was able to attract 4.7 million US dollars worldwide.

Well, by the way, a Samsung mobile phone was also sold out, which boosted Samsung’s stock price.

In this case, as the distributor of The Yellow Sea in North America and Europe, I have to give you another toast, you made me money. "

"Well..., let's not talk about anything else. Let's drink."

Jiang Feng smiled and drank it all in one gulp for the second time.

If there is a first time, there will be a second time. If there is a second time, there will be a third time. However, when Harvey Weinstein stood up for the third time, Jiang Feng smiled and pressed down his arm.

"Jiang, what's wrong?
I have something else to say. How can you stop me from toasting you?" The old rogue Harvey Weinstein asked with a wink.

"Mr. Harvey, we'll talk about toasts later. Let's talk about wine now. Our glasses are the same size, one or two glasses each, but you drank red wine while I drank Maotai with a concentration of over 50%."

"hehe…"

As soon as Jiang Feng said this, everyone laughed out loud.

"Why, aren't red wine and white wine different?" Harvey Weinstein asked.

"You can try..." Jiang Feng encouraged him with his eyes.

Of course, I was a little confused. As a famous China expert in Hollywood, had Harvey Weinstein never drunk white wine before?

Just as he was thinking about it, Harvey Weinstein took the bottle of Moutai and poured himself a glass. He poured the liquor, but before he drank it, the smell of the liquor alone made the old man frown.

But at this time, Zhang Ziyi, who was sitting between Harvey Weinstein and Yu Dong, stood up with a smile.

"Mr. Han, Director, Brother Feng, Mr. Yu, I was brought here by Harvey Weinstein. Now let me toast you all." After saying that, Zhang Ziyi picked up the glass of white wine that belonged to Harvey Weinstein.
