Huayu: Hard fight against Zhang Weiping at the beginning

Chapter 208: Cheng Long is going to come to the capital to call for punishment?

After half an hour, the skill CD cooling time
Xu Qing got off Zhang Chen and fell beside him exhausted, gasping for breath.

After a while, she suddenly asked, "Sister Hua said that there is a small misunderstanding between her and you, and it is not convenient to speak up, so she asked me to come to you for a chance.

I'm curious, what's the little misunderstanding?"

Zhang Chen did not hide anything when he heard this and briefly recounted what happened that night.

"She must be regretting it now. She must be under a lot of pressure after separating from Huayi."

"Oh, it seems that Sister Hua treats you well. I'm speaking for her..."

Xu Qing said openly: "Sister Hua is really good to me. She has done a lot for me in secret and introduced me to two endorsements. You are also very good to me. You are both very important people to me. I just don't want to see any conflicts between you..."

"Hey, a cool guy is a cool guy, he does things in a generous way~"

"Is that okay~"

"Okay, of course, but you underestimate me. Am I such a petty person? This matter has nothing to do with her. It's that Wu Kebo who has his eyes on the top of his head. I'm not angry with Sister Hua in the first place."

"I knew you were the most generous." Saint Aunt Xu immediately delivered a sugar-coated bullet.

Zhang Chen kept the sugar coating and fired the shell back.

Xu Shenggu hummed softly, and then her body began to tremble rhythmically.

"But you'd better remind her that Orange Sky is definitely not a good match. Wu Kebo is too narrow-minded. If she joins Orange Sky, the ending may be worse than Huayi..."

Zhang Chen is not exaggerating, this is the fact.

Later, Wang Jinghua and Wu Kebo went to court and broke up completely.

After the breakup, Wang Jinghua reconciled with Huayi Brothers and established Shiba Culture. The Wang brothers took some shares, but their relationship with Wu Kebo has never been resolved.

After a pause, Zhang Chen felt that it was not enough, and continued: "Anyway, I will never cooperate with Chengtian in the future. You should convey this attitude to Sister Hua. If Sister Hua joins Chengtian, then I can only say sorry."

Zhang Chen got angry when he thought of Wu Kebo's expression that day.

Who do you think you are?
I mean nothing.

He remembered that Orange Sky's popularity grew significantly after Wang Jinghua joined the company, which led to further investment from Japanese investors and the acquisition of Golden Harvest.

I want to see how high Chengtian can reach without Wang Jinghua.

As for whether Wang Jinghua would give up Chengtian because of Zhang Chen's words, Zhang Chen asked himself whether she would.

Liang Jiahui, Xu Qing, Zeng Li, and Chen Daoming are all Wang Jinghua's artists. They have either worked with Zhang Chen or are about to work with Zhang Chen.

What Chengtian has is not enough to help Wang Jinghua except money. On the contrary, they want to borrow Wang Jinghua's resources.

Zhang Chen believed that as long as Wang Jinghua was not stupid, she would know what to choose?
Upon hearing this, Xu Shenggu also echoed: "I will tell her when I get back that if she doesn't break up with Chengtian, I will terminate the contract with her..."

Of course, she was just talking to make Zhang Chen happy.

With her status, she cannot pose a threat to Wang Jinghua.

Zhang Chen knew that the Saint Lady was trying to coax him, but he was still very happy. He suddenly exerted force, causing the Saint Lady to exclaim, "Good boy, be gentle~"

After another half an hour, Zhang Chen admitted that he had been subdued by sleep.

He seriously suspected that the Saint Lady had taken something to enhance her sexual pleasure before coming here today, which was why her fighting power was so strong.

"The script is on the table. Please take a look at it first. Let me rest for a while..." Zhang Chen surrendered.

Xu Qing excitedly picked up the script on the table and began to read it. Zhang Chen narrated beside her: "This is a man's play. The female lead doesn't have many scenes, but this is a series."

He was originally hesitating about who to cast for the role of the female lead, but since Xu Qing was interested, he might as well give it to her.

This way, it will prevent those female stars from coming to snatch her away. It’s better to decide on her early and put them off.

Zhang Chen hates these the most.

This is also the reason why he is unwilling to engage in artist management business.

It's troublesome to think about whether he will give the roles in his movies to the female artists under his management, and if so, to whom he will give them, or whether he favors one over the other.

Just don't do it.

……

Zhang Chen thought that the matter was over, but he didn't expect that Han Sanping called him directly the next day, also asking about the cooperation with Cheng Long.

His tone was full of anticipation.

Unfortunately, Zhang Chen was destined to disappoint him.

After explaining his reasons, San Ye was obviously disappointed, but didn't say anything. He just said a few words of encouragement and hung up.

Zhang Chen could also understand his feelings.

CEPA was signed last year, and it was expected that there would be results this year.

But the result is that, up to now, there are not many co-production films with box office revenue exceeding 3000 million.

It must be embarrassing.

But Zhang Chen is definitely more important than CEPA, so the Third Master did not make any excessive demands and everything was done according to Zhang Chen's wishes.

In fact, since the signing of CEPA, spring has arrived for the Hong Kong circle. Hong Kong filmmakers have collectively moved north and shot many works.

King Liu has "House of Flying Daggers", King Guo has "Judo Dragon Tiger List", King Lai has "Big City Small Affair", Cheng Long has "New Police Story", Tony Leung Chiu-wai has "2046", and Stephen Chow has "Kung Fu Hustle"...

They are all big directors and big stars, but unfortunately, except for "House of Flying Daggers" and "Kung Fu", the box office of other movies are not that good.

This is also the reason why Han Sanping is anxious.

Hong Kong films seem to have been collectively cast under a spell, and those plots that used to work perfectly suddenly no longer work.

Although the big stars who once dominated the world are still well-known, they no longer have the box office appeal. …

Zhang Chen had basically calmed down. It was only then that Aunt Liu got the news: "Zhang Chen, I heard that you are going to work with Cheng Long on a movie?"

Zhang Chen rolled his eyes and wanted to say: Auntie, at the speed you send news, you can't even eat hot shit.

But how could he be so rude? So his answer was: "Absolutely not. This is completely a rumor. We have no cooperation with Cheng Long at all."

"But I heard that..."

"Everything you heard is false. It never happened."

Zhang Chen smashed Aunt Liu's dream into pieces with one blow.

Aunt Liu was a little at a loss, but still insisted, "Oh, that might be my mistake, but I heard that there is a role of a daughter in your new movie, which should be suitable for our Xixi. How about cooperating in the same way as last time?"

how is it?

No how?
Auntie, the market has changed a long time ago, okay?
Of course, these are all Zhang Chen’s psychological activities. He certainly cannot say this, after all, she is Liu Tianxian’s mother.

In reality, Zhang Chen was very polite: "Sorry, Ms. Liu, my daughter's role has been decided."

"deal?"

Aunt Liu found it hard to accept this. It seemed that she had never thought that the power of money would become ineffective.

But immediately, she realized that it was Zhang Chen who was raising the price, or someone else was using the same money ability.

Aunt Liu was very domineering and said generously: "No matter who the other party is, we will pay double~"

Really domineering.

She thought someone offered a higher price than her, at most 600 million or 700 million, but she never expected that Miss Jing offered 2000 million.

So we really have to focus on money in life.

Your economic foundation determines your vision and pattern.

She thought she had money, but she didn't know that superheroes are everywhere.

Zhang Chen didn't believe that she was willing to spend 4000 million to play a role. More importantly, she couldn't help "Painted Skin" pass the review.

……

Hong Kong, Liang Jiahui's home, Cheng Long visits again.

"Tony, can you help me ask what's going on over there?"

Cheng Long is an impatient person. Liang Jiahui asked Wang Jinghua to communicate with Zhang Chen, but there was no reply and he became anxious.

"Well, with your temper..."

They have been friends for many years, and he also knows Cheng Long's temper.

As he said that, he picked up the phone and called Sister Hua, but after a few words, his expression suddenly became serious.

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Long couldn't wait to ask, "What did they say?"

Liang Jiahui hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to tell the truth, as he couldn't hide it.

"Sister Hua said that Director Zhang Chen was not very willing to do it. He felt that the style of you and the protagonist was too different. There was some unpleasantness between the two of them because of this..."

Cheng Long didn't notice the second half of the sentence which was about asking for favors at all. The first half alone made him feel incredible.

I was rejected?
I haven't encountered this kind of thing in many years.

"Don't take it too seriously. Director Zhang is probably a person who values ​​acting above all else, so he rejected you~"

Liang Jiahui comforted Cheng Long, saying that they had a good relationship and didn't need to be too careful when talking.

Of course he knew that Cheng Long didn't fit the role, but the general reaction was that since Brother Cheng Long had asked, he would definitely agree, and if it didn't fit, he would change it to fit.

However, he was quite surprised that Zhang Chen would refuse.

But seeing Cheng Long's expression, he couldn't bear it: "Wait a minute, I'll call him and ask."

"Why, are you familiar with him?"

"Not familiar with each other. We just exchanged a few words at the film festival. But Sister Hua said that I am her favorite actor, no doubt about it."

"Tsk, you're so stinky..."

Having said that, he still asked Liang Jiahui to call Zhang Chen.

He also wanted to know why he was not chosen.

If I were to take the initiative to ask for a role, any director would agree, but this Zhang Chen...

Rather than feeling any resentment, Cheng Long was rather curious about what kind of person Zhang Chen was.

The call was quickly connected, and Liang Jiahui said politely: "Director Zhang Chen, hello, I am Liang Jiahui..."

Zhang Chen on this side was even more surprised. He didn't expect that Liang Jiahui would call him personally and ask about Cheng Long.

He had a hunch that Cheng Long was nearby.

How to answer this?

No matter how much I disagree, the other party is Jackie Chan, the number one star in Chinese-language films!
Just calling him 'Big Brother Cheng Long' is enough to explain his status in the entertainment industry.

Zhang Chen was thinking about what words to use so as not to offend Cheng Long and yet to refuse tactfully.

Liang Jiahui probably also sensed the change in Zhang Chen's tone, and simply said, "How about this, Director Zhang Chen, it's hard to explain over the phone. I'm going to Beijing tomorrow, and I'll be with you, brother. We can talk in detail when we meet."

……

Please give me a monthly ticket, everyone.
