Chapter 897 Ten bald men and nine cowards, the dwarf has three knives in his heart
PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket.

One Zero Two Four Locomotive Films.

"Hello Mai sir."

"Mr. Mai..."

"Mai... Jia... Boss?"

Mecca, who is wearing a white suit, has two splayed eyebrows, white-rimmed sunglasses on his face, a charming figure, and a little... smirk in every gesture?
Seeing someone say hello, he raised his beard and nodded frequently.

Three or five piles of staff gathered together to discuss in a low voice. Everyone was curious about why Mecca appeared in the company, and many of them were former employees of New Art City.

Needless to say, the other party's popularity.

It is not news that the company acquired New Art City, but for a long time, New Art City has begun to shrink, but it is maintaining the previous IP, and everyone does not violate the river.

However, now a resigned boss suddenly came to the locomotive, which aroused many people's curiosity.

Maijia walked into the general manager's office, just in time to see the secretary coming out, he smiled and twisted his steps, approached, and said angrily: "Please give me a Mojito~ Ding——"

Pretending to be cool, he pulled out a cigar from his collar, took out his Zippo and lit it himself.

"Remember, I don't need to put too much sucrose, the world is already too sweet..."

Da Dabu twisted very happily, making the female secretary hold back her mouth and laugh. He looked around and asked curiously:

"Where's your boss? Are you out wandering?"

The female secretary was at a loss in embarrassment, she glanced at the desk from the corner of her eye——

Jiang Zhiqiang sank into the large boss chair with a bad expression, and a white old-fashioned computer was blocked in front of him——The boss chair was shaking back and forth, and his figure was looming——

"I thought the boss chair would be driverless...it's a nice chair," Mecca joked with a smile.

Sitting in the boss's chair, Jiang Ershao snorted coldly with his feet stretched out and his chest raised.

"Mai sir, go to the Three Treasures Palace for everything..."

"The Three Treasures of Saiyang?" Mecca joked in a cheerful mood, pulled out a cigar and threw it to the other party, "What three treasures... Do I have to come here if I have something to do? Can't I just come and taste cigars with you? "

Jiang Zhiqiang, who always felt that he was reflected for a while, took the cigar and smiled lightly.

"I haven't congratulated you for smashing a schedule yet!" Mecca complimented with a smile.

"The result of everyone's hard work."

"Hehe... It seems that there is nothing wrong with New Art City's original strategy." Mecca sighed, and said: "Actually, this Spring Festival's "Happy Family" reminds me of Huang Baiming's style ...I didn't expect Li Licheng, Li Gui, to defeat Huang Baiming, Li Kui this time..."

"Family carnival movies, there is no distinction between Li Kui and Li Gui..." Jiang Zhiqiang said lightly.

"[-] Locomotive doesn't seem to be good at family movies. I heard that the successful filming of "A Happy Event in the Family" used a lot of New Art City employees?" Mecca said with a smile.

"If I had such support at the beginning, maybe if I chose to go public, the result would be different."

Jiang Zhiqiang sucked on his cigar, raised his eyebrows, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Mai, you are right. If New Art City was listed at that time, it would be amazing..."

Mecca waved her hand with a bright smile.

"When the [-] locomotive locomotive is listed, I will invite Sir Mai to unveil the plaque... so that Sir Mai can get what you want... I will tell you later that if the company goes public again, Sir Mai will be invited."

Mecca's face froze, why does this frank word have the smell of an old onmyoji? ? ?

"Speak the truth."

"Appreciate further details."

"I know you are planning to arrange the release of "Dark Flowers"..." Mecca chose the words and said, "I wonder if we can increase the publicity, such as using Azu and I to work together again as a publicity stunt?"

He looked at Jiang Zhiqiang solicitingly.

Jiang Zhiqiang squinted his eyes and raised his head with a smile, which made Maijia settle down, and continued: "We can also take advantage of the popularity of Zhou Xingxing for this drama, and create a PK between the established 4000 million director and the emerging 4000 million star , I think it will definitely attract the attention of many people.

Also, this drama actually has elements of a gangster drama, so can you use the extra episode of "God of Gamblers" to promote it? ?I think this is the selling point...at least Sir Wu looks the same in it..."

"Is there anything else?" Second Young Master Jiang asked proactively.

Seeing that the other party was interested, Mecca showed a smug smile.

"Although the director of "Dark Flower" is not Azu, but Hong Kong Island is a production center, we can also promote it as Azu's movie... At the same time... Didn't I invite many artists to this movie? Cameo? Do you want them to have some gossip??

This kind of trick is something you play around with, I think you are more professional than me in this regard. "Mecca smiled and said, "There are also fake box office...I don't believe you guys didn't do it in the first week of "Happy Family"..."

"Mai sir, your suggestion is really good." Second Young Master Jiang stood up, and said earnestly: "But we can't over-consume Azu...Movies are not fake, but real... We rarely use that kind of trick that doesn't make it to the public.

Box office fraud, ghost shows, box office fraud... We have always hated it.Sir Wu also taught us to behave properly.

Look out of this window—the light of righteousness shines on the earth, illuminating every dark place!When we make movies, we still have to be upright! "

Mecca looked in shock at Jiang Zhiqiang who was full of dignity.

What are you talking about? ? ? ?
Don't you do too many nasty things at [-]? ?Which movie is released without touching porcelain?When do you not engage in gossip? ?

You are now telling me 'the light of the right way'? ?

Of course Mecca wants to hype this "Dark Flower"!After all, it involves his pension money.

However, Jiang Zhiqiang did have his own considerations.

Every popular filmmaker has a price, and your value is marked in the hearts of movie fans.Every excessive consumption is a discount to the filmmaker's own value.

A little more realistic question.

If Wu Xiaozu is not the big boss of the company, then excessive consumption will be consumption, and he can even take it out to touch porcelain with Zhou Xingxing... But now Director Wu is also a person with feathers.

People swim in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves at all.

The publicity of "Dark Flower" is really not high... mainly because Jiang Zhiqiang, the leader of Wu Chui, thinks that Wu Xiaozu cannot be consumed.

In this regard, Mecca argued hard!
The general situation is reproduced as follows:

"This movie has me and Azu's two swords together, using the name of my cooperation with Azu's "Two Heroes", it is definitely a hit."

"Mai sir, your New Art City is now closed..."

"No, I have invited quite a few stars for this drama..."

"Your New Art City is closed~"

"Convex!""

In this drama, of course Jiang Zhiqiang can't use Wu Xiaozu's name to help Mecca to make money.

The investment in the film company itself is not large.

It was not considered a real big project, not to mention the sensitive issue of Mecca's desire to touch porcelain, so Jiang Zhiqiang naturally wanted to suppress it.

Anyway, it won't lose money, but it is basically difficult to make a lot of money in such a "dark wind cult film".

This is Wu Xiaozu's original words.

With Director Wu as the base, Jiang Zhiqiang naturally has more confidence.

Such a low-cost work can be a dark horse, that's what we wish for.It's not too late to spread the word... If it can't be a black horse... then it doesn't matter, the company will deal with it secretly.

The reason for this is that Jiang Ershao is responsible for the listing of the company.

……

Xinbao Theater, in front of the gate.

"Is this movie really produced by Sir Wu?"

Luo Zhixuan looked at the slightly empty movie theater curiously, puzzled, and asked: "In this situation, the screening hall of "Dark Flower" is not full, right? Is it true that, as rumored outside, this movie is Wu Sir's taste of favor?" Debt, help Mecca??"

"Really? Didn't Mecca go to speculate in stocks? I saw him on the financial column two days ago... No wonder Sir Wu didn't promote it."

"Isn't it? The female star named Zheng Yanli in the third-level movie next to her is more fulfilling than this one..."

"Normally, everyone is watching celebrities now. The lineup of "Dark Flower" is very average... Sir Wu didn't promote it either, I guess it's just a producer name. Overall it doesn't look like a big production... "Gu Dezhao held the popcorn and squeezed to the side to chat.

"My elder sister said that now Hong Kong Island is not so much a producer-centered system as it is a star-centered system. Putting on the name of a star, you can easily break tens of millions... It's much worse behind the scenes."

"That's not enough, is it? This is a movie produced by Xiao Ye... Are the audiences all NT now? A film like "Happy Family" has won more than 4000 million box office, and the film produced by Xiao Ye is so deserted? "

"Don't you look at who are the movie fans queuing up to watch Zhou Xingxing? They're all little kids... The "Happy Family" scene doesn't even have a cinematic feel, and you don't even have to think about the camera... How about calling the director 'Liu Li' What about oranges... a shake is full of water.

That's not too bad.

If you look at those other dramas, even laughing can't make you laugh.What is "Children in Troubled Times" about?That row of actors and directors are better than him in the tethered dog position! "

"To tell you the truth, just one movie by Lord Xiao is enough for those directors to learn for a lifetime..."

"Have you seen that Mecca is also the producer..."

"That's why many people say that this drama is actually Sir Wu repaying favors."

"Sir Wu himself didn't promote this movie, and he supervised one or two movies... If it wasn't for the people from the Fan Association saying that this movie is of high quality, it is estimated that so many people would not have it.

After all, we all know that in general Sir Wu's films are director, producer and producer.Hey hey hey - Sir Wu participated in this drama? ? "

A few loyal fans of Wu Xiaozu met to watch "Dark Flowers". When they saw the poster, they saw the words "Wu Xiaozu's friendship and participation" was written on the poster. What are the remarks of "the appearance of the actor", "Director Wu's film has nothing to do with Liang Jiahui..." remarks.

You have to admit that with Wu Xiaozu's success in Hong Kong Island, a group of "Wu Chui" has indeed been born.

Open and shut up 'fatalism', 'lens language', 'movie structure', 'postmodern processing', 'use of light'.

A small group of more than 20 movie fans happily bought tickets and walked into the movie hall.

Unexpectedly, there are not too few people in the hall, about one-fifth of them are done.This kind of attendance is not bad for such a cold schedule.Apparently, many people are still somewhat confident about Wu Xiaozu.

This is also the character and charisma that Director Wu has managed to save.

Come out to sell, face outward.

Director Wu is not easy either.

The theater was getting darker, and the sound of the paradoxical saxophone and the trumpet rose from low to low, gradually lowering the noisy sound in the theater.

Light flickers in the dim light.

In the corner, a few foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes were silently watching the prologue of the movie in front of them.

"John is very influential in Asia, and several of his works have achieved commercial success. The word-of-mouth box office of "The Suspect" in the past two years has doubled. "In this movie, the big scene shooting is very attractive, and the video tapes in North America are very good." A well-dressed white ghost introduced to the bald ghost next to him.

"I got word that he's a gang member?"

"Messages... If you check them slowly, they will appear slowly, and if you don't check them, they won't appear."

"???"

"In short, let's see if he is worth it. It is said that he is very close to Harvey. Last year, "Sex, Lies, and Videotapes" was produced by him himself? It is said that the film won the award, thanks to his editing."

"Look at his movies."

As the company logo walked by, the movie officially started.In fact, this is not the first time a 'shadow detective' has paid attention to Wu Xiaozu.In her previous life, Wu Baige was also treated like this.

In addition to them, there are some representatives of film companies and film critics.

After all, it is a movie with Wu Xiaozu's name on it, even if the publicity is not strong, but Wu Xiaozu's three words are worth betting on by many people.

...

The movie starts with a melodious music.

A watermelon knife dripping with blood fell from a person's hand to the ground, the sound broke the silence of the picture, and the camera panned. At this moment, the audience could intuitively see many people lying in disorder on the street. He looked miserable.

At this time, the camera zooms in and out.

A staggering running shadow appeared in the dark alley, and the camera focused on the shadow——

With the lights on the side of the road and the lights on the road flickering, the shadows are constantly elongated, changing, empty, and multiple shadows...

The rhythm of the music is very fast, which immediately raised the hearts of many audiences.

The shadow runs fast——

When the front lighted up, the figure finally showed a little bit of appearance - under the close-up, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Immediately, there was a sudden gunshot, followed by a woman's scream and heavy, slow footsteps.

The figure of the visitor gradually enveloped, and suddenly the screen went black.The camera changes to a scene of feasting and feasting.

The voiceover also follows.

It briefly introduces the background of the fight between the two gangs, George and Brother Hua. These two characters appear in front of the audience with a majestic identity.

The two big men of Omen.

The actors are Long Fang and Ren Dahua.

In the screen, the resumes of the two are briefly introduced to the audience, which can be regarded as telling the background of the story and paving the way for the next movie.

Jingle Bell--

A red landline rings, rings three times, hangs up, rings three more times, hangs up again.

Ring again, and then answer.

The unshaven Liang Chaowei pursed his lips, answered the phone, nodded, and picked up the car keys.

As soon as the screen changed, a car with vertical halogen headlights shone on the road, jazz minor tunes were played, and subtitles appeared one after another.
