Entertainment 1998

Chapter 775 Chapter 774, Vice President of the Directors Association
At the entrance of Beijing Film Studio, there is a restaurant called Juxian Mutton Soup.

The restaurant mainly serves mutton soup and also sells stir-fried dishes. Its main customers are extras acting in Beijing Film Studio.

You can eat your fill for 5 yuan and eat well for 10 yuan.

Sometimes, extras have no money and come in with two steamed buns. The restaurant owner will warmly entertain them and give them a free bowl of bone soup with five or six flakes of mutton fat floating on top.

At 10 o'clock this evening, things seemed a little different.

When the restaurant owner was about to close, two distinguished guests suddenly came into the store.

The reason why they are called distinguished guests is because of these two people, one is Han Shanye, the chairman of China Film Group; the other is Jiang Feng, the winner of the Oscar for Best Director!

"Hello, Mr. Han!"

"Hello, Director Jiang!"

"What would you like to eat today?"

Although the fire in the stove was already burning, the shop owner still didn't dare to refuse customers when he saw Han Shanye and Jiang Feng.

"I want four stir-fried dishes, three bowls of mutton soup, and a bottle of Niulanshan Erguotou."

It is very normal for two people to order four stir-fried dishes, and most people do so, but it is puzzling to order three bowls of mutton soup.

You should know that the bowls for mutton soup here are all the size of a human head. Let alone two people drinking three bowls, even one person would have a hard time finishing one bowl.

However, just when the kind shop owner wanted to remind Jiang Feng and Han Shanye, a taxi stopped in front of the mutton soup restaurant.

The car stopped and a woman in a brown windbreaker got out. She looked around and then walked straight into the Ju County Mutton Soup Restaurant.

"Sorry, we're closing."

"Boss, he's here to see us."

At this time, Jiang Feng snapped his fingers.

"Oh... then, please come in."

The shop owner smiled and went to the kitchen to busy himself.

As soon as the shop owner left, Han Shanye looked at the woman.

"Are you Zhang Yu?"

The woman was a little nervous. She put the bag in her hand on the chair next to Jiang Feng, and then bowed directly to Han Shanye and Jiang Feng.

"Hello, Mr. Han, hello, Director!

I am Zhang Yu. Mainly because Director Jianzhong did not treat me as a human being, took advantage of me repeatedly, and stood me up repeatedly, so I resorted to this desperate measure. "

"Um…"

Han Shanye nodded, and then pointed at the bag on the chair with his chopsticks.

"There's no backup of the stuff in here, right? Or did you leave a few videotapes behind?"

"No, I promise!" The woman was a little nervous, so nervous that she rubbed the corners of her clothes hard with her hands.

"That's good. Sit down and have a meal together. Just consider it as me treating you." Jiang Feng smiled and pulled out the chair next to him.

"Is it appropriate?" the woman asked.

"It's appropriate. If you don't eat, how can I observe you closely and see which role you are suitable for?" Jiang Feng said with a smile:
"However, Zhang Yu, I will do everything I promised you. I will give you 300 million RMB and the resources for two movies.

But let's be frank. If one day I see these things on the market again, or if I hear that someone is using these things to threaten other directors, I guarantee that she will not see the sun tomorrow.

Their whole family will not see the sun tomorrow."

"Uh…"

As soon as Jiang Feng finished speaking, the body of this pretty-looking woman trembled slightly.

"Hurry up and sit down!"

Seeing that the woman was still standing, Jiang Feng tugged at her clothes. After the woman sat down, Jiang Feng spoke again.

"Mr. Han, Ms. Zhang, I've been thinking about a story recently and it feels pretty good. I'd like to tell you about it now and you two can help me review it first.

The name of the story is "Accident", and the plot is as follows:
There are four people in the brain team.

The woman was responsible for driving into the downtown area.

Then the tire blew out, blocking the road.

The target person behind him had to drive into the trail.

At this time, the old man came towards them on a bicycle. The two vehicles met and avoided each other.

A truck splashed water and hit the target in the face. The fat man upstairs untied the banner and let it fall, hitting the target's windshield.

The target person tried to pull the banner, causing the glass from the upper floor to fall and hit him.

The woman's car remained parked where it was, preventing the ambulance from arriving in time.

The victim had no time to receive medical treatment and died on the spot.

In the end, the police determined that it was an accident..."

Jiang Feng had just started telling the story of "Accident" when the woman sitting next to him suddenly stood up.

"I'm sorry, Director, Mr. Han, there's one thing I forgot. In the basement of the house I rented before, there are more than a dozen videotapes I recorded before.

I'll go get them now, um, it'll be quick!

In order to make it easier to get a role, I have been living in Huangtingzi Community. Please wait, I will be back in about 25 minutes. "

After saying this, without waiting for Han Shanye and Jiang Feng to reply, the woman ran away in a panic.

Looking at her back, Han Shanye smiled and gave Jiang Feng a thumbs up.

You are great, you deserve to be a famous screenwriter. You can scare beautiful girls to death by making up a little story!

……

After spending a day in Beijing, completing the property procedures and transferring 300 million RMB to Zhang Yu, Jiang Feng flew to the Magic City with Han Shanye.

This year's Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards was held in Jiaxing, but there was no airport in Jiaxing, so Jiang Feng and Han Shanye chose to fly to the Magic City first like everyone else.

In Shanghai, take a bus to Jiaxing, 100 kilometers away.

Others who travelled on the same flight included Zhang Yimou, Gong Li and Song Jia.

I have to say that Song Jia is a good woman who keeps her promises. Since returning from Venice, she has not made a single phone call to Jiang Feng. Even when they met at the airport today, they both had a businesslike expression.

Song Jia bowed politely and said, "Hello, Director Jiang!"

Jiang Feng responded with a smile:

"Song Jia, I read in the newspaper that many people have contacted you recently and want to invite you to star in their movies.

how about it?
Is there any role you particularly want to play?"

"Have!"

"Oh, whose work is it?" "The director's House of Flying Daggers. He invited me to play the role of a brothel owner in the movie."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng immediately gave Zhang Yimou a thumbs up.

Zhang Yimou first approached Mei Yanfang to play the role of the madam in "House of Flying Daggers", but it is said that Mei Yanfang, who is now preparing for pregnancy, refused to take the role. Then he approached Gong Li, but Gong Li also refused. Then he found Song Jia...

But it's better to find Song Jia than Song Dandan, right? In the previous life, "House of Flying Daggers" was originally a serious subject, but everyone burst into laughter when Song Dandan appeared.

Flying from Beijing to Shanghai in two hours!

Basically, everyone sitting together in the business class had not had time to chat together before the flight landed at Hongqiao International Airport.

According to the arrangement, the organizing committee of this year's Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards would send a car to welcome them. After all, those arriving at the same level were all heavyweights in the literary and art circles, such as Han Shanye from China Film Group, the internationally renowned Jiang Feng, Zhang Yimou, Gong Li, Song Jia and so on.

But when everyone came out of the airport terminal, they discovered that the people who came to pick them up were actually from the Directors Association, and the leader was Han Shanye's classmate Huang Jianxin.

Yesterday, Huang Jianxin was successfully elected as the president of the China Directors Association.

Standing behind Huang Jianxin are many famous directors in the circle, such as Zhang Jizhong, Xu Jinglei, Feng Xiaogang, Li Shaohong, Zhang Jianya, Aping and so on.

This group of people came in a rented bus.

Seeing them, Jiang Feng was puzzled. Wasn't everything already done? Why did these people come? Did they hear that the price of the courtyard house was going to increase? !
Jiang Feng was just thinking about it when bearded man Zhang Jizhong came over.

"Jiang Feng..."

"Ok?"

"Brother, I really envy you. If you don't take action, it's fine. But once you take action, you can solve any problem, no matter how big it is." Having said this, Zhang Jizhong lowered his voice.

"If I had your ability, I'd have more fun than you. From Liu Xiaoqing and Zhu Lin to young girls who just graduated from the Film Academy and the Drama Academy, they all came to my table."

"Ha ha…"

Jiang Feng was successfully amused by Zhang Jizhong.

If someone else said this, Jiang Feng would think he was joking, but when Zhang Jizhong said this, Jiang Feng thought he was absolutely serious.

Even when he was in his 70s, he could still make his wives in their twenties or thirties pregnant.

Jiang Feng was smiling when the newly appointed Huang Jianxin waved his hand at the entrance of the terminal.

"Everything is ready. We'll have lunch in the Magic City this morning. I'll take a look first.

We will return to Jiaxing in the afternoon."

"Ooooooooo..."

Everyone was very happy to see someone treating them. For example, the tall Song Jia got on the bus with everyone and even stood in the aisle and started dancing.

When Song Jia danced like this, these wolf-like directors became even more excited and they applauded and cheered while sitting in the car.

Of course, there were also those who pouted, such as Xu Jinglei who was sitting next to Jiang Feng.

"Jiang Feng, as your former girlfriend, I feel that your taste is getting worse and worse. Look at the girls you dated before, such as Wang Fei, Wang Zuxian, Li Jiaxin, Guan Xiaolin, etc. They are all the top beauties in the country, and the worst ones are Fan Jiuyi and Gao Yuanyuan.

But now, it's Song Jia?"

"hehe…"

Facing the jealous Xu Jinglei, Jiang Feng didn't say anything. He just smiled and motioned for her to continue.

"Jiang Feng, let's talk business. You have done us all a big favor. In addition to the courtyard house that we bought for you with our own money, we have also made a promise. Everyone owes you a favor.

If you have someone you want to promote, besides Zhang Yu, just tell everyone."

"Well, this is good!"

Jiang Feng, who had received a shabby courtyard house and felt that he had gotten a great bargain, did not expect that he could get another bargain.

"Also, in your absence, you have been elected as the vice president of the China Directors Association, and the first vice president, ranking before me and Feng Xiaogang."

"Um…"

To be honest, Jiang Feng focuses on practical interests and is more afraid of trouble.

It's like some association or other, they make it seem like a real thing, gathering everyone together for a small meeting whenever they have time, but in fact, they just sit together and chat nonsense.

But just when Jiang Feng was thinking about how to refuse this position that he despised, Xu Jinglei suddenly leaned forward and said in a low voice:
"Don't refuse, there are benefits in this. The China Directors Association is a deputy bureau-level unit, which means that the president is at the deputy department level, and the vice president is at the division level.

Although this level is nothing to us, it is still very happy for your parents that my son is at the same level as the county secretary.

As for meetings and such, it's none of your business."

Seeing Xu Jinglei say this, Jiang Feng accepted the position with a smile. As for things that would make his parents happy, the more he did, the better.

As the largest film festival in China, the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards is naturally very grand.

Especially this year, Chinese filmmakers and Chinese films have won a series of heavyweight awards abroad. Even the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards, which have not been taken seriously by foreign filmmakers, have also attracted attention from many countries.

Many reporters from China, South Korea, Singapore, and even the United States came to interview.

Not to mention the reporters from Hong Kong and Taiwan media who are part of the same entertainment industry as the mainland!

It is said that there were 12 media outlets from Formosa Province alone.

Looking at so many of his peers in the industry, entertainment reporter Han Bingjiang, who was standing on the left side of the red carpet at the Golden Rooster Awards ceremony, couldn't help but sigh.

To be honest, Jiang Feng's grandson is really awesome!

Before, whether in Taiwan or Hong Kong, people would sneer at the mention of mainland movies.

For example, in Hong Kong Island, even the ordinary staff in charge of lighting in their crew dared to laugh at Liu Xiaoqing, the most popular actress in the mainland, saying that she was only worthy of squatting at the door with a basin and eating white rice without any vegetables.

But now?

Ever since Jiang Feng single-handedly raised the visibility of mainland filmmakers to the level of Hollywood, these people have come to flatter him!
It is said that Hong Kong Island, Taiwan Island and the mainland are all one family.

But that’s not what you said at the beginning.

Han Bingjiang was expressing his emotion when suddenly, he and his apprentice Zhao Ergou ran over mysteriously.

"Master, Master..."

"Say!"

"Just now I heard from the media in Guangdong Province that a big incident happened in the mainland entertainment industry in recent days. A girl named Zhang Yu was taken advantage of by more than 30 film and television directors in the industry.

Maybe she waited too long, or maybe this girl never became famous, so she gave these directors an ultimatum: If I can’t become the heroine of Jiang Feng’s movie by the end of this year, then all of you, go to hell…”

But before Zhao Ergou could finish his words, Han Bingjiang covered his mouth with his hand.

"Er Gou, listen to me, don't get involved in this matter. Whoever gets involved will be in trouble."

"But this piece of news has a huge impact..." After finally getting rid of Han Bingjiang's mouth-covering behavior, Zhao Ergou wanted to argue hard.

What is breaking news?
This is breaking news!
It was even bigger than the rumor that Jiang Feng got Berlin Film Festival winner Zhang Manyu pregnant.

At this moment, Han Bingjiang only said one sentence and Zhao Ergou shut up.

"Jiang Feng took over this matter and it seems to have been settled."
