There is a bar in Houhai

Chapter 42
"Aren't there two directors? When did you make an appointment for the other one?" Shen Fang asked Niu Hao after seeing off the happy Xin Yukun.

"We definitely can't come together. Director Xin's investment is only 200 million yuan, and the other project costs 3000 million yuan." Niu Hao said with a smile, "Hurry up and order food on the hour. It's just drinking, no matter how good the wine is, it's tasteless." .”

"You are the master, okay." Shen Fang got up helplessly, "Tell me, what do you want to eat."

"I'm not picky about food, just ask someone to go to the opposite barbecue season to pack some barbecue." Niu Hao said with a smirk.

"Brother, do you want to use 85-year-old whiskey with barbecue? How about I give you two bottles of Xiaoer, that one goes with barbecue." Shen Fang was a little dumbfounded, "I understand, next time I will make 85-year-old bottles I can just add some wine to you, and drinking this for you is completely ruining my wine."

"Tch." Niu Hao looked disdainful, "Believe it or not, brother, I go out from here, and the people who treat me to dinner can line up from the east end to the west end of Chang'an Avenue."

Shen Fang also knew that Niu Hao was joking with him because he was his own.So I didn't care, and ordered a waiter to go to the opposite "BBQ Season" to order a barbecue and deliver it.

"December 12th: Do you believe in love at first sight? I fell in love with a goddess at first sight, and then launched an attack, chasing and beating me hard. After half a year like this, do you know how it will end?" Shen Fang's prestige Still every day.

"Rejected? ︿(￣︶￣)︿" is now particularly fond of using kaomoji.

"After I chased and fought hard, the goddess was hospitalized. <(￣ˇ￣)/"

"w(Д)w"

……

"Are you flirting with girls again? Laughing so wretchedly." A female voice came from the door, and Shen Fang glanced at "Hey, acquaintances", three people came in at the door, one female and two male.

"Brother Niu, you must have ordered this whiskey with kebabs." Seeing Niu Hao sitting on the sofa with kebabs in hand, eating meat and drinking alcohol, Han Xiaoxiao guessed that it must be him. There will be such a combination.

"Come and try it, just like Ye Zi, the 85-year-old whiskey is not usually easy to drink, and it is a perfect match with the barbecue season of our century-old brand in Yanjing City." Regarding his own style, Niu Hao is Strive to recommend.

The circle in the capital is neither small nor big, and you can always find a few people you know well in Yanjing.

"Miss Han, why are you here?" Shen Fang has always admired Han Xiaoxiao's personality.I think that if she was placed in ancient times, she would definitely be a heroine, with a warm heart and a willingness to help others.

"Lu Yang can be regarded as my senior brother. Professor Tian asked me to help you keep an eye on it, so you won't be fooled." Han Xiaoxiao said unceremoniously, and then called the other two to come in and sit down. "Let me introduce, this is Lu Yang." Lu Yang is not tall, a little thin, and his age is about 30 years old.

"This is Wen Muye, who is studying with Professor Tian in graduate school with me." Wen Muye is relatively quiet, with a slightly ordinary appearance and unattractive appearance.After Han Xiaoxiao introduced Shen Fang to him, he nodded and quietly watched the few people beside him without speaking.

"Professor Tian? That old man like Tian." After calling a few more people to sit down, Shen Fang curled his lips to show his disdain.

"Yeah, I forgot, hey, he's complimenting you a lot now"

"He will say good things about me?" Shen Fang's grandfather, Jin Shixun, was hired by Tian Zhuang's family from the Yanjing Propaganda Department to work as an artist for Yanjing Film Studio. For Kim Sehun.The two families can be said to be family friends, and Tian Zhuang grew up watching Shen Fang.Since "Blue Kite" was banned, this old man has rarely made films, and he basically supervises students at Yan Film Academy.The old man is not married and has no children. Shen Fang never went abroad before. He was young and energetic, and often argued with the old man about literary and commercial films. The old man thought that excessively commercial films lost their due However, Shen Fang believes that a purely literary film will make it more and more distant from the audience.

"Professor Tian heard that you and Director Niu's 'Bad Monkey 72 into a Movie Project' said that you finally did a personnel matter." Han Xiaoxiao thought of Tian's disdainful expression at that time, and wanted to laugh.

"Forget it, let him see how old he is, and don't care about him." Shen Fang arranged for Lu Yang to sit next to him, and asked him in detail about the movie "Xiu Chun Knife". Han Xiaoxiao and Wen Muye They were familiar with Niu Hao, and they were sitting on the other side, drinking whiskey and eating skewers.

Lu Yang's father is a teacher of Central Opera. Although he liked history, art and movies since he was a child, his father still let him choose science when he was divided into arts and sciences in middle school.Back then, there was a saying, "Learn mathematics, physics and chemistry, and you will not be afraid to travel all over the world." Because my father felt that movies were difficult and hard work. At that time, engineering had more employment options than engineering.

Lu Yang went to engineering school as an undergraduate, majoring in database management. After graduation, he worked for Phoenix Satellite TV for a year. He was tired of office work.Lu Yang said to his father, "I want to study film".He did not apply for the central opera, but the director department of Yanjing Film Academy.

After receiving the graduate admission notice from Yanjing Film Academy, Lu Yang quit his job and started working with the group as an assistant and field reporter.Fortunately than most of his classmates or young directors of the same generation, Lu Yang passed the script to Xiying Film Studio through the introduction of his parents, and found investment for his debut film "Cinema for the Blind". The mentality of people invested money, but the budget was stretched, which was reduced from the initial 350 million to 170 million. The shooting was also very tense at that time, and it only took 21 days to shoot.Teacher Jin Shijie from Wanwan also only received very little salary, and other members of the crew received little or almost no money.

With his directorial debut "Cinema for the Blind", he won the KNN Award in the New Wave Unit of the Korea Pusan ​​International Film Festival, the Best Film Award at the Kazan Film Festival, and the Best Director's Debut Award at the China Golden Rooster Film Festival. Lu Yang became famous instantly.

Many directors in China have a martial arts dream, and Lu Yang also wants to make a martial arts film.He who loves history has already written the prototype of "Embroidered Spring Knife" while making "Cinema for the Blind". He wants to make a pure martial arts film, one that does not rely on stunts to fly around, nor is it like "Painted Skin" Such a magical movie, but real swords and guns, the kind with flesh and blood.

China's martial arts film "Hero" should be regarded as a milestone film, but since "Hero", domestic martial arts films have gone astray, from "The Promise", "Golden Armor" to "Night Banquet", a The investment in this film is getting bigger and bigger, but the storyline is getting weaker and weaker, and the major domestic directors have lost their wings.A new director wants to make a martial arts film, and the investment must be at least tens of millions.He has not proven himself in commercial films, and the market as a whole is not optimistic about costumed martial arts. Lu Yang has been working on this project for two years, but he can't find so much money.Until a few days ago, Han Xiaoxiao introduced Shen Fang and Niu Hao's "Bad Monkey 72 Movie Project". "

"I've read both your script and proposal. To be honest, this script is really good. If it's done well, I can make a series." Shen Fang added some drinks to Lu Yang, "I don't know if you have any feelings for the actors. Candidates?"

"The role of Shen Lian in it, I contacted Zhang Zhen through Mr. Jin Shijie from Wanwan, he was very satisfied with it, and he should give me an answer in the next two days. In addition, after reading the script, Mr. Jin is very interested in the role of Wei Zhongxian. I hope to star in it." For his own script, Lu Yang is still very confident, especially now that he has contacted Zhang Zhenlai to play the leading role, even if Shen Fang can't get investment from Shen Fang, he can still attract attention from other film and television companies.

Shen Fang secretly said "It's dangerous", if it is a few days later, this drama will probably miss his company.

"Bad Monkey's new film plan is to invest in about 20 films within a year, so the investment for one film will not exceed 500 million." Shen Fang paused, looked at Lu Yang and continued, "Your budget for this film is 3000. Wan, we are going to invest 500 million from Bad Monkey, and the remaining 2500 million will be made up by Wild Fox, and they will be responsible for the distribution, what do you think."

Before coming here, Han Xiaoxiao introduced Shen Fang to Lu Yang. He knew that the Wild Fox Film and Television Production Company was also invested by him, so he had no objection to Shen Fang's suggestion. After all, he had been working on this project for nearly two years. The company invests in production, regardless of whether it is a new company or not.

"Brother Niu, come here." Shen Fang greeted Niu Hao, who was bragging with Han Xiaoxiao and others, "This film will be co-produced by the two companies according to the suggestion given in your plan. This is a martial arts in ancient costume For commercial films, shall we assign him an experienced producer?"

Niu Hao thought about it, "How about Chen Zhixi? Xu Zheng is filming "Lost in Thailand" in Thailand, and she can help to take care of it in an orderly manner."

"She should be able to do it." Although he only met once, Shen Fang had a good impression of her, and Xu Zheng also praised her many times, "I don't know if she has other projects."

"I'll call her and ask her." Niu Hao was more straightforward, picked up his mobile phone after speaking, and contacted Chen Zhixi next door.

"She happened to be in Yanjing these two days. I will ask her to come to your company tomorrow so that she can meet Lu Yang." Niu Hao came back a few minutes later and said.

"Director Lu, this movie requires 2500 million investment from Wild Fox Film and Television. I will sign a cooperation agreement with the company tomorrow morning and introduce the producer to you. Regarding your treatment, Mr. Huo from Wild Fox Film and Television will give you details Talk, after all, he is the general manager of the company. But don't worry, he will not treat you badly. "

"Thank you Mr. Shen, I will definitely go tomorrow morning."

"Miss Han, do you have any good projects recently? There are still vacancies in our investment plan, and I will provide you with some support."

"I don't need it for the time being. Professor Tian said that Brother Wen and I need to exercise more. If Brother Lu's project starts, the two of us can learn from the group."

"Well, that's okay." Shen Fang had no reason to refuse Han Xiaoxiao's request.
