Huayu: A Commercial Director

Chapter 275 New Brokerage Firm, Uncle Ni

Are there any suitable roles for older sisters?

What are you going to act in?

Chen Shou returned to the horse farm, and had only been inside for a short while when a familiar voice rang out.

"It seems there aren't many female characters. What about the Queen Mother?"

"You? The Queen Mother?"

Chen Shouzhe, a director who had seen her figure before, almost choked when he heard her words.

"You still think you're the same person you were twenty years ago? Even if you were twenty years ago, you couldn't even play a fairy." Chen Shou said irritably.

She is as beautiful as a fairy; no other beauty can compare to her.

Zhou Xun, looking like this, still wants to play the mother of the female immortal?

With her flat chest, she's really dreaming.

This time, he will use the best cast of actors. There will be very few female characters, but that doesn't mean the quality will be low.

Rather, it means there are not many important female characters. The only two that can be considered important are Chang'e, who was teased by Tianpeng, and the Queen Mother of the West, who is the main character of the Peach Banquet.

The main character is definitely the Monkey King, and the second main character is Yang Jian. As for Tang Sanzang and the others, they definitely won't be seen.

Because the production of costumes and props requires a long period of preparation, filming will definitely not be possible in the first half of the year. Instead, we will be in the preparation stage, casting will be completed before the end of the year, and the props and equipment will be made. Filming will then take place in the second half of the year, and after filming, we will begin the post-production special effects. It will take about a year to complete.

The initial budget of 4 million is just that, and it will definitely need to be increased later, since the actors' salaries have not yet been finalized.

For films produced by a film studio, actors generally don't ask for too much, and besides, he wouldn't use those so-called "traffic stars" who would pay hundreds of millions in salary to produce a piece of crap.

"So I'm out of the running again. Looks like I'm really getting old; I'm rejected by every movie I'm in," Zhou Xun sighed.

“You’re not short of money now, it’s great to play cards every day, and you don’t have any kids for me to take care of. If you’re free, you can help me take care of my kids,” Chen Shou said with a smile.

“Not interested, but everyone in the industry envies Yang Mi now. I never thought I made the right bet and found you.” Zhou Xun rolled her eyes at him, then laughed after a moment.

He was able to return to the film industry after being blacklisted, then started his own company which went public, and is now involved in major projects. He completed his capital transformation in his early thirties.

They all relied on Huayi's listing to complete their capital transformation. Compared to Yang Mi and others, their journey was much more arduous. After all, they only accumulated tens of millions of yuan in capital at the time, while Yang Mi directly amassed hundreds of millions, or even billions, of yuan in assets.

All of this was brought to her by a man, and the price she paid is one that countless female celebrities are now willing to pay, and some can even go further.

However, Chen Shouzhe didn't give him any chance. Over the years, he has maintained a good relationship with three women. Two of them have given birth to his children, and many people speculate that the remaining one might get married.

Chen Shou ignored him, not finding the little girl: "You came alone?"

"And Chen Kun, he'll be here later. I'll have him bring some food," Zhou Xun said.

"You two started a talent agency last year, right?" Chen Shou asked.

"I didn't expect such a big director to know about our little company," Zhou Xun said with a smile.

"Didn't I ask Sister Zhong to send you a flower basket?" Chen Shou said.

Chen Shouzhe remembered that Dong Sheng Future was the company he was referring to, a talent agency jointly founded by Chen Kun and Zhou Xun.

When a talent agency signs an artist, it earns money by acting as an intermediary for the artist.

It's so easy to make money as a celebrity these days. A single celebrity's earnings can be comparable to those of a listed company. Li Baibing, who started out in the early days of the agency, did quite well, not to mention the established agencies.

Otherwise, why would those people who returned from South Korea be so sought after? Each of them had enormous commercial value, making them worth the scramble.

Even Zhong Lifan started looking for new talent. She couldn't let her company's huge production resources go to waste; even if she just handed them over to Yang Mi's company, she could still make a lot of money.

"It's not open yet, Director Chen, please give us a chance," Zhou Xun said with a grin.

"Send an email." "The feelings have faded; even your aunt doesn't care anymore."

Chen Shouzhe was too lazy to pay attention to her; he had already seen the little girl return.

"dad!!"

The little girl was dressed in thick clothes, holding a clip in her hand, and came in hand in hand with Yu Lao Er.

"You guys went to play in the snow again, aren't you cold?!"

Chen squatted down to straighten her clothes, which were covered in snow. Since the room was heated, he quickly took off her coat and found that it was soaked through, as he had thrown a lot of snowballs inside.

"not cold."

"Go take a shower quickly, then eat."

"I want to wash with Grandma."

"Okay, let's go find Grandma."

"Hee hee hee!!!"

The little girl ran off to find Master Chen's wife.

Chen Kun arrived shortly afterward, bringing with him a middle-aged man of similar age to Yu Qian. Upon seeing Chen Shouzhe, Chen Shouzhe immediately gave him a big hug.

"Uncle Ni, what brings you here? You should have told me sooner so I could have picked you up," Chen Shou said happily.

"Haha, I heard you were coming here, so I thought I'd come and freeload a meal. Is your master here?" Ni Dahong patted Chen Shouzhe on the back and laughed.

"I have performances in other places."

"I was thinking of having a drink with him."

"Director Chen, you're late," Chen Kun said, standing at the door carrying a large bag of things.

"It's been a long time since I've seen you. Come in." Chen Shou nodded to Chen Kun, but didn't greet Ni Dahong with the same enthusiasm.

He really liked Chen Kun and they had collaborated many times. If it weren't for scheduling conflicts, he would have played Ning Caichen. Later, Wuershan gave him the role of Mojin: The Lost Legend.

However, there was something about Chen Kun that puzzled Chen Shouzhe. He almost asked Chen Kun if the biological mother of his son was surnamed Dong.

Otherwise, why would he be so protective of that woman surnamed Dong who had an affair?

You should know that the false accusation scandal almost ruined the reputation of a male actor with excellent acting skills. Chen Shouzhe even considered casting him as Ning Caichen, but gave up after seeing his appearance.

The truth about Ms. Dong only came to light after she was stalked by paparazzi for a month.

The public naturally besieged her, forcing her to disappear for a period of time, but Chen Kun was still tirelessly helping her make a comeback.

The public is puzzled as to what kind of relationship would lead him to help a woman with such a bad reputation.

The term "white lotus" originated with this woman.

Chen Kun has a son, but he still doesn't know who the child's mother is, and people are secretly wondering if it's her.

Chen Shouzhe would never be so bored as to ask such a question. They had a good relationship, and there was no need for him to make such a joke.

It was only when the three of them came to the racecourse that they realized Ni Dahong had signed with Dongsheng Future, which explained why he was with Chen Kun.

However, the three are a bit special. One is from Beijing Film Academy, one is from the Central Academy of Drama, and the other is from a local art college. They are from three different schools.

Chen Shouzhe was very happy to be at a gathering of acquaintances. He had worked with Ni Dahong several times, and as a supporting actor, Ni Dahong's acting skills and professionalism were beyond question. He was a very popular and talented actor.
