Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 358

Hong Kong Island.

The hotel where the crew of "Hong Kong囧" stayed.

In a meeting room on the seventh floor, the atmosphere was extremely frozen and smoky.

The main creator of the film, the person in charge of the crew department, and twenty or so people all had serious faces, looking at the director Xu Zheng who was in the main seat from time to time.

Xu Zheng frowned, feeling agitated.

After the incident, the crew first communicated with the three locations, hoping that they would give them convenience and let the crew shoot first.

How could the three set spots dare to offend the local gangsters, they faltered and delayed again and again.

The crew had no choice but to ask Hengyu headquarters for help.

Xu Zheng personally called Mo Xiangwan, Secretary of the Board of Directors of Hengyu Media, and the reply he got was that Fang Ziheng would be notified as soon as possible, and everyone in the crew should stay in the hotel first, and try not to go out if there is nothing to do.

A whole day and a half passed, from the night before yesterday to this morning, there was no call from Hengyu.

Fang Ziheng did not call to ask what happened.

The crew of more than a hundred people hid in the hotel all day and night, and everyone was going crazy.

What is even more annoying is that a group of young people with dyed hair and fancy clothes came out of the hotel this morning.

The hotel manager told Xu Zheng and the others that these people are bad guys from Hong Kong Island, gangsters, and they are all arranged behind the scenes.

"Why is there no news yet!"

As time went by, Xu Zheng's expression became more and more serious, and after a while he picked up the mobile phone on the table to check to see if there were incoming text messages or calls.

Beside him, Bao Qiang and Zeng Li sat on the left and the right, neither of them said a word, their faces were rather embarrassed.

The atmosphere in the meeting room is getting worse and worse, and everyone's patience is exhausted.

Zeng Li was worried that everyone's morale would be damaged, so he knocked on the table and said, "Director Xu, everyone, I don't think the other party's purpose is simply to stop us from filming, there must be other plans behind it!"

She is Hengyu's artiste, she is also the number one movie actress, and she has a close relationship with Fang Ziheng, so she cannot be a spectator due to emotion or reason.

"Lost in Hong Kong" is a movie written, produced, and invested by her daughter's father!
As soon as she opened her mouth, Bao Qiang immediately responded: "Yes, if it's true that the gangsters are playing tricks, they're just asking for money. The gangsters came to the hotel to block the door this morning, and it looks like they're being ordered by someone."

"The problem now is that we can't get out, and no one will deal with the call to the police, and why hasn't there been any news from the top!"

Xu Zheng spoke in a muffled voice, scratching his bald head with his hands, cursing bad luck in his heart.

With a twinkle in Zeng Li's eyes, he understood the meaning of Xu Zheng's last words, and looked at the crowd and said solemnly: "Don't worry, the group will not ignore us!"

As she said that, she was about to take out her mobile phone and call Fang Ziheng.

buzzing..
As soon as she took out her mobile phone, there was a vibrating sound from the mobile phone.

On the smart screen, a set of phone numbers and Fang Ziheng's name were displayed.

Zeng Li raised his phone, pursed his lips and smiled: "It's the chairman's call."

boom..
Everyone sat up straight.

Hoo.. Hoo..
Immediately afterwards, there were voices of relaxation in the conference room.

When Fang Ziheng called, everyone seemed to have a backbone, even if the other party was not there, it made them feel at ease.

Yeah!
The chairman will not leave them alone.

Xu Zheng's stern face also eased, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Zeng Li: "Sister Li, listen to what Ziheng has to say, is the matter resolved?"

In the film crew, Guangtou Xu was very polite to Miss Zeng, knowing that she was having an affair with Fang Ziheng, so he often called her sister to show respect.

Zeng Li nodded, connected the phone, and turned on the phone to play the sound.

"Hello, Miss Li?"

On the other end of the phone, came Fang Ziheng's gentle and steady voice.

"Well, it's me."

Zeng Li replied softly, and then said in a slightly annoyed voice: "Director Fang, we are in a meeting, and there are gangsters blocking the door outside, they are too bad, they won't let the crew out!"

Gee!

Beauty Zeng was also angry, and sued her little man!

"Don't worry, it's all right!"

"Chen Yu, the deputy general manager of China Film Group, has arrived in Hong Kong and is heading to the Hong Kong Resident Office. You are waiting for a while, they will be there soon."

The steady voice was broadcast through the mobile phone and spread throughout the meeting room, causing everyone to smile happily.

China Film is here, please leave the Hong Kong Office!

Awesome!
A young man shouted in his heart, got up and came to the window, and looked at the gangster who stayed downstairs with disdain.

Underworld, gangsters!

You are arrogant, and there is still a Hong Kong office!

Everyone got up from their seats, whispering to each other while happily making body movements to relax their emotions.

They went out all day and night, but they were suffocated.

Fang Ziheng asked Zeng Li to give Xu Zheng his phone, and after a few words of explanation, he hung up.

For such a trivial matter, a phone call is enough for him!

after an hour.

Two luxury cars arrived at the hotel under the escort of Hong Kong police.

Chen Yu, a deputy director of the Hong Kong Office, and Song Dai from Yindu Organization got out of the car.

Together with them, there is also a senior assistant commissioner from Hong Kong Island Police Headquarters, a chief superintendent, and a senior superintendent.

Chief Superintendent, head of the Hong Kong Island Police Serious Crime Division!

Senior Superintendent, Commander of West Kowloon Operations!

When the two got out of the car, they waved behind them.

A few assault vehicles rushed over, and before the gangster could react, dozens of police officers came down and quickly caught the gangster.

Xu Zheng led the crowd and welcomed Chen Yu and others into the hotel.

The senior assistant director said to them with an apologetic face: "Director Xu, everyone, I'm really sorry that I surprised you.

Please rest assured that the police on Hong Kong Island will definitely deal with this matter seriously, and escort the crew of "囧囧 in Hong Kong" to successfully complete the filming! "

"At the same time, please believe that Hong Kong Island has always been a legal, peaceful, and civilized city. Hong Kong Island will always welcome mainland directors, actors, and crews to come to Hong Kong for filming and filming!"

Xu Zheng was flattered, shook each other's hand with both hands, and said with satisfaction: "Thanks to the police on Hong Kong Island for coming to help in time, we firmly believe that Hong Kong Island is a beautiful and peaceful city, very few crimes can be found everywhere, and will not affect our mainland. People's senses and compliments to Hong Kong Island!"

"Haha, okay, thank you Director Xu for your understanding!"

The senior assistant director laughed, and nodded to the chief superintendent and senior superintendent behind him, telling them to lead the gangsters away first, and they must be dealt with seriously.

Afterwards, the assistant director looked at the deputy director of the Hong Kong Office, and issued an invitation: "Director Yang, Manager Chen, I will be the host tonight, and I will scare Director Xu and the others, and I invite the two of you to show respect together!"

Deputy Director Yang didn't speak, but looked at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu smiled slightly, and said politely: "It's costing Director Li, so I should invite you.

I think so, let's have a casual meal with the crew, "囧囧 in Hong Kong" is a very good movie, Director Yang and Director Li are invited to guide and give more opinions to the crew! "

"Okay, okay, that's it!"

Director Li responded with a smile, with a friendly attitude, without the slightest stance of being in a high position.

In a few words, the incident was resolved.

Hong Kong Island.

A five-star hotel, in the luxurious presidential suite on the top floor.

Four middle-aged men over fifty were drinking tea and chatting on the sofa.

The four of them looked relaxed and at ease, and their conversation was full of criticism. Anyone who saw them would think that they were big bosses on Hong Kong Island.

One of them, Fang Ziheng, had dealt with Yang Cheng, the boss of Yinghuang.

The other three, one is Xiang Qiang, the boss of Hua Guoxing.

One is Lin Jian, the boss of Lixin Group.

Lin Jian is also the biggest boss of Hong Kong Island entertainment giant Uniasia Film and Television Company, and the boss of Uniasia President Zhuang Cheng.

The last one is Li Guoxin, the owner of Hong Kong Island Meiya Entertainment.

These four people are the current masters of Hong Kong Island's entertainment industry at sunset.

The mess that happened in "囧Hong Kong" was written by one of the four people. They wanted to lure Fang Ziheng to Hong Kong and use their hands to solve the mess, so that Fang Ziheng owed them favors.

If the favor is owed, they can justifiably propose to cooperate with Hengyu Media to make a movie together.

Among the four, Lin Jian has the strongest net worth and controls the huge Lixin Group.

Yang Cheng followed, ranking 38th on the Hong Kong Island Rich List last year, with a net worth of US$10 billion.

On the other hand, Xiang Qiang seems to be worth less than the two on the surface, but what he does, he secretly holds a lot more wealth than Yang Cheng.

Only Li Guoxin is two chips weaker. Meiya Entertainment has been half-dead for the past few years and urgently needs good projects to start a difficult situation.

The four drank tea and chatted, talking and laughing.

On the coffee table, there are a few special snacks and refreshments of Hong Kong Island.

Drop drop drop..
A cell phone on the coffee table rang.

Lin Jian, Yang Cheng, and Li Guoxin's hearts moved, and they stared at Xiang Qiang. It was the other party's mobile phone. Could it be that Fang Ziheng had come to Hong Kong.

Almost instantly, the three of them put down the tea in their hands, and changed their sitting positions to look like listeners.

Xiang Qiang slowly swallowed the pastry in his mouth, picked up the phone to connect, and said in a low voice, "Hi, it's me!"

"Boss, it's not good, the police came and handcuffed all my brothers!"

"what?"

Xiang Qiang frowned, subconsciously clutching his phone and looking at the three of them.

Then, under the surprised eyes of the three people, he got up and came to the window, lowered his voice and said sharply: "What's going on, didn't I tell you, tell your subordinates to be quiet, and don't really touch those mainlanders!"

"Boss, I didn't move. The brothers were just wandering outside the hotel without even entering the door!"

On the other end of the phone, there was a man's aggrieved voice.

"Fuck!"

Xiang Qiang cursed secretly, suddenly thought of something, and continued to ask: "Let me ask you, did your people see a handsome young man come to the hotel to meet the crew of "囧囧"?"

"There are no young people, but there is a young man in his 30s and two middle-aged men in their 40s."

"Oh, by the way, boss, a team of police cars escorted them to the hotel. I inquired about it later, and the hotel manager said that the senior police superintendent of West Kowloon District is also in the escort team!"

Hearing this, Xiang Qiang stopped.

Half an hour!

He yelled into the phone, 'Fuck the street, lose you! 'Hang up the phone!

Afterwards, he made two phone calls and quickly figured out what happened.

Fang Ziheng never came to Hong Kong Island at all.

China Film Group came in person, executive director and deputy general manager Chen Yu, the direct descendant of Zuo Shandiao, the leader of Huaguo's film market!

"Chen Yu, Director Li, Senior Assistant Director of the Hong Kong Office!"

Xiang Qiang took a deep breath, chanting the names of the three of them.

He knew that the plan had failed!
That Fang Ziheng didn't need to rely on the power of Hong Kong Island's entertainment circle at all, and he could easily handle the gangsters who blocked the door.

Taking back the phone, Xiang Qiang lit a cigarette, and walked out while meditating.

Nothing to do, wipe your ass clean first!

"Old Xiang, what's going on?"

"Brother Xiang, where are you going?"

"Everyone, my wife asked me to go back to dinner, excuse me!"

Xiang Qiang kept walking, waved to the three of them calmly, and disappeared into the suite in a flash.

Yang Cheng, Lin Jian, and Li Guoxin were left staring at each other!
That night.

Xu Zheng took the crew to the first location to take the scenic spot 'sky100', and restarted filming for the whole of Victoria.

For the other two spots to be filmed, they also proactively contacted the crew with a humble attitude, claiming that the crew of "囧囧 in Hong Kong" can go there to shoot at any time.

Leaving the palace.

After Fang Ziheng sent the "Tang Detective 2" crew to the plane, he went straight back to Li Gong Naiwa, during which he only called Zeng Li.

As for those behind the scenes, he didn't bother to know.

On the land of Huaguo, gangsters have no future, never will!

After staying at home for another day, he handed Xiao Yueyue to Fang Rou's mother before he boarded the plane to Yuzhang.

This time back to the imperial capital, two of the three things were perfectly resolved.

Only Zhou Xingchi was not completely settled, and he was still waiting and watching, waiting for a price.

In the past two days, the major film and television companies met with each other one by one, and the prices offered were very high.

Tengxun Pictures and Ali Pictures even took the initiative to pay a premium, wanting to completely eat the new project of the King of Comedy.

Zhou Xingchi was very calm, he said yes to everyone he met, and we could discuss it. Then he changed the subject and told everyone to wait for the script to be completed.

Chen Wu, Zhang Qiang, Yu Dong, Wang Changtian, Song Ge and others had no choice but to leave a word of waiting for the good news, and they all left.

According to the time set by Zhou Xingchi, by September at the latest, a new script can be produced at the end of the summer vacation.

As for the story of the script, he kept it very secret and didn't mention it at all.

.........

time flies.

In May, the weather gradually gets hotter.

With the arrival of the summer vacation, the film market is also full of endless vitality.

Starting from April 4th, several blockbuster films from Hollywood have entered Huaguo in succession, starting the bombardment mode just like the previous two years.

First, "Special Forces: Total Counterattack", which was released for one month, made a low-key hit of 3.8 million at the box office.

In "Crazy Primitives", it was released for 20 days, and it also won a box office of 3.1 million in one fell swoop.

This is not over yet, on May 5st, the day of Labor Day, "Iron Man 1", an Iron Man series film produced by North American Marvel Pictures, was officially released nationwide.

In just five days, the box office soared to 4 million yuan in the first weekend, a fierce sub-batch.

at the same time.

Movies are also raking in the box office in the global market. In the North American market alone, "Iron Man 3" hit $6810 million on the first day.

In 2013, the Huaguo film market showed defeat for the first time after domestic films crushed foreign films during the Spring Festival.

On the Internet, countless movie fans are looking forward to it, hoping that someone will stand up and teach the ferocious "Iron Man 3" to be a man.

Movie fans think too much!

Not to mention that no one is willing to stand up, even if they do, it will be death!
Everyone is not stupid. April and May are the time when Hollywood movies are released together. Who the hell will really take movies to hard steel.

Even Fang Ziheng, who has always been determined to revitalize Chinese-language films, would not choose a weak time to play against!

If you want to fight, you also choose to fight in June!
Yuzhang.

Jinggangshan!
The new residence of the "Founding of the People's Republic of China" crew.

Fang Ziheng finished his day of filming and went back to his room after eating.

There was no time to take a shower, so I turned on the computer immediately and checked the two forms forwarded by my secretary Lin Yuyu.

One copy is for the entire Huaguo movie market, and all the movies released in the summer file!
Among them, "To Our Dying Youth" directed by Zhao Yanzi, the owner of Alibaba Pictures, is the first one.

In the previous life, Zhao Yanzi had a good network of connections!

In order to let "To Youth" have a good release schedule, the schedule of "Iron Man 3" has been moved many times, so that the release time of this Hollywood blockbuster has been changed and changed.

In this life, Zhao Yanzi was not in a good state because of the incident of "Hong Kong囧" changing the female lead, which caused the release of "To Youth" to be delayed by nearly one and a half months.

The movie's schedule was also moved to May 5th, which perfectly avoided "Iron Man 25".

Of course!
It avoids Hollywood blockbusters, and cannot avoid other domestic films released at the same time.

On the computer in front of Fang Ziheng, there is also a list of four movies that will be released in June, July, and August controlled by Hengyu Media, as well as a movie announcement schedule.

One of them will be released on May 5!
"Manslaughter 2"!
Produced by Fang Ziheng, directed by Guo Fan, starring Xiao Yang, Yang Xuejian, Yu Hewei, Luo Jin and Lei Jiaying.

This movie is also one of Hengyu Media's gifts to Alibaba Pictures.

When Lu Chuan's "Seven Stars of Lu" is released, Fang Ziheng will give him a big gift.

Ali Pictures is making small moves behind the scenes, which he disdains.

He wants to be upright, use Hengyu to control the movies one after another, defeat Alibaba Pictures head-on, and beat those so-called Internet elites.

Tell them, the movie, how it works!
