I Won a Prize of 100 Million at the Beginning, and I Became a Capital Boss

Chapter 163 Casting of "Wolf Warrior 2"!

Zheng Wentong asked his secretary Cheng Liyuan, "Who do you think is more like the second generation of rich male stars in China?"

Cheng Liyuan thought about it, "Principal Wang."

Zheng Wentong was a little amused, "He doesn't have to look like him, he is. He is just a celebrity, not a star."

"That's quite a lot, Lin Feng, Feng Shaofeng, Hua Chenyu, Su Xing, Huang Zitao and so on."

Cheng Liyuan usually watches entertainment gossip, and her boss is also the boss of a film and television company, so she usually pays more attention to this part.

"Wait," Zheng Wentong heard a familiar name, "What's your impression of Huang Zitao?"

"It's funny, a little genuine, not artificial." Cheng Liyuan commented.

Zheng Wentong recalled Huang Zitao's performance in the recording of the second season of "Real Man" in 17, and thought that Cheng Liyuan's evaluation was quite fair.

In fact, people in the circle have already known about internal entertainment. Huang Zitao, Lu Han, and Zhang Yixing, who came back from South Korea, obviously knew Wu Moufan's private conduct.

Huang Zitao persuaded fans not to fall in love with Canadian men. When Lu Han heard He Jiong mention Wu Moufan's feeling of loneliness when he was 30 years old, Lu Han couldn't help laughing.

Wu Mofan showed 17-year-old Zhao Jinmai's enthusiasm in the show, and often wanted to hold on to Zhao Jinmai. He wanted to take Zhao Jinmai home many times, but was stopped by Angelababy.

Don't all these signs show that the character of Wu Moufan, an innocent boy, is just deceiving fans and the public?

Since Principal Wang can't play the role, Huang Zitao is indeed a more suitable candidate than Zhang Han.With the earnest teaching of the big brother Wu Jing, I believe that Huang Zitao can also be reborn in the movie and contribute a good performance.

In "Wolf Warrior 2", Yu Qian will also make a guest appearance. Wu Jing and Yu Qian have a very good relationship, and they drink together when they have nothing to do.Yu Qian made a free guest appearance in "Wolf Warrior 2", and Wu Jing also made a free guest appearance in the movie "Hello Teacher" produced by Yu Qian.

Yu Qian won the Golden Lotus Award for Best Actor at the Macau Film Festival in 19 with "Hello Teacher".Guo Degang also wrote this into the comic dialogue, Guo Degang comforted his son, "Dalin, whether you take the actor or not, you are my son."

Zheng Wentong and Wu Jing jointly invested in the filming of "Wolf Warrior 2", which means that Qian fell in love with the acting industry, and then fiddled with the low-cost movie "Hello Teacher", which is also quite profitable.

Although the box office of "Hello Teacher" is not high, only 3.56 million, but it can't stand the low investment of others.This is a series of benefits brought by Zheng Wentong's friendship with Wu Jing in "Wolf Warrior 1".

Zheng Wentong contacted Wu Jing and told him about Zhuo Yifan's candidate.

"Hi, I originally wanted to go with you. Last year I promoted "Wolf Warrior 1", didn't I have a bad time with EXO fans? So I thought about inviting a former member of EXO to play, since You think Huang Zitao is suitable, why don't you meet and talk with him in Puhai first?" Wu Jing said.

Wu Jing remembered one thing at this moment, "By the way, let me declare first, whether Huang Zitao agrees to play this role or not, the salary will not be too high, at most 200 million."

Wu Jing had already tried to invite Wu Moufan, but his agent directly reported a salary of tens of millions, scaring Wu Jing away.

"Don't worry, I can handle this. How about we change the name of Zhuo Yifan to Huang Sicong?" Zheng Wentong had a sudden thought.

"I don't care, just communicate with Principal Wang on your side." Wu Jing smiled. Among the speeches of many southerners, Huang and Wang did not distinguish. This is also a form of Principal Wang's appearance.

Zheng Wentong happened to have nothing to do in the afternoon, so he told Cheng Liyuan, "You can contact Huang Zitao's studio and ask him if he has time to come to the company in the next two days, and he said that there is a male lead in the movie Galloping Horse who wants to invite him to audition. Don’t mention the specific project.”

"Okay, Mr. Zheng." Cheng Liyuan, as Zheng Wentong's secretary, has contacted many artists, and she is no stranger to this, and she is not the kind of star chaser.

Like Yu Shuxin, Huang Zitao is also the kind of rich second generation with some family background, but his family is still far from the real rich.

What is said on the Internet that Huang Zitao inherits a 200 billion family property is a lie, unless the 200 billion is Korean won, it is more than 1 million when converted into RMB.

As for the 200 billion private equity fund managed by Huang Zitao's father, it's not an asset, it doesn't represent anything.

However, Huang Zitao's father has been running a car rental business in Huanghai City for more than 20 years. He was listed on the rich list of Huanghai City in [-] and has a fortune of hundreds of millions.

Huang Zitao's studio received the invitation from Slope Investment, and his attitude was very positive. He said that he would have time in the afternoon and made an appointment with Slope Investment in advance.

Huang Zitao made an appointment at 02:30, but he still arrived early.There is also a female employee in Slope Investment who is a fan of Huang Zitao, showing a pleasant smile.

Huang Zitao clasped his palms together to express his thanks, and signaled the fans to calm down so as not to disturb other colleagues' work.

Cheng Liyuan brought Huang Zitao to the CEO's office, Zheng Wentong got up to welcome him, Huang Zitao was very enthusiastic, "Mr. Zheng, hello."

"Excuse me, I asked you to come here temporarily, what do you think you want to drink?" Zheng Wentong greeted Huang Zitao.

"It's fine, just water." Huang Zitao was very polite.

"Drinking water is a good habit. For you singers, it is more important to maintain your voice." Zheng Wentong praised it very much.

"You are also busy with work here, and I won't waste your time. We, Galloping Horse and Dengfeng International, are preparing to produce a military action movie "Wolf Warrior 2". There is a second male role in it that is very suitable for you. "

Zheng Wentong briefly introduced Huang Sicong's character setting and some plots about him.Of course, if Huang Zitao wants to read the entire script, he must first sign a non-disclosure agreement.

After quitting from EXO, Huang Zitao was the worst among the four returnees.

Luhan starred in the movie "Back to 15" in 20, and Wu Moufan starred in two movies, "Somewhere Only We Know" and "Old Paoer".

Zhang Yixing participated in the recording of the first season of "Extreme Challenge", and the character design of "Little Sheep" is also very pleasing, only Huang Zitao does not have a work that can be sold.

In fact, Huang Zitao's popularity is lower than that of Lu Han, Wu Moufan, and Zhang Yixing.Huang Zitao is in charge of rapper and martial arts in EXO.

If you want to compare it with one person, Huang Zitao's popularity ranking in EXO is roughly equivalent to that of Kim Hyo-yeon in Girls' Generation.

So Huang Zitao is quite interested in having the opportunity to star in a big-budget movie, Zheng Wentong also clearly informed Huang Zitao that the investment in "Wolf Warrior 2" will not be less than 2 million RMB.

Movies with this kind of theme are actually relatively rare in China, and they can actually broaden Huang Zitao's acting career.

Seeing that Huang Zitao was a little moved, Zheng Wentong decided to pour some cold water on it first to lower his expectations.

"Let me tell you about the factors you need to consider for this movie."

"Although the production cost of the movie exceeds 2 million yuan, most of it is used for scenes close to actual combat, such as tank battles and explosion scenes in the movie."

"Brother Jing gave me a budget of 100 million yuan, and I will add another 100 million to make a total of 200 million. The salary is not high."

"The final shooting cycle was relatively long, from June this year to April next year, a period of 10 months, and some shots needed to be shot in Africa, and the conditions were relatively difficult."

"I don't need to fool you into making a movie, so I will tell you about the disadvantages in advance." Zheng Wentong said.

Huang Zitao heard the voice, "Mr. Zheng, you have already mentioned the disadvantages, so what are the advantages?"

Long shooting time, low salary, and going to Africa are all enough to make Huang Zitao retreat.

"Before entering the film and television industry, I was an investor. I believe you knew me before you came here?" Zheng Wentong said.

"Mr. Zheng's name has long been known." Huang Zitao sighed in his heart. He is also born in the 90s, and Zheng Wentong is already a figure in both the Internet and film and television circles. He is still hesitating whether to play a supporting actor in the movie.

"If I were you, from an investment point of view, I would take over this role, and I would do my best to play Huang Sicong well!"

"Before you came, someone contacted Wu Jing, willing to star in this movie with zero pay, and also willing to go to Africa for location shooting, but I still rejected it, because his image is only suitable for playing a domineering president, not a rich second man. Generation." Zheng Wentong revealed.

"After starring in this movie, you can transform into a tough guy. I can recommend you to record the second season of Mango TV's national defense education program "Real Men."

"Secondly, I can give you a chance to choose between 200 million yuan and 0 yuan to star in. We can count your 100 million investment and participate in the movie box office dividend." Zheng Wentong said.

Huang Zitao did the calculations in his mind, "Wolf Warrior 1" had a box office of 6 million, unless "Wolf Warrior 2" had a box office of more than 13 billion, he could get a bonus that was higher than the 200 million film salary.

Huang Zitao discussed with Zheng Wentong, "Since you are willing to pay 200 million for the film, can I invest 200 million and participate in the later box office share?"

"Impossible. For me, there is actually no shortage of tens of millions of production costs. I actually want to make some compensation for your low salary."

"In this way, 0 salary, you invest 200 million, I count your 200 million investment, this is the last chance! After this village, there will be no such store. If you leave our company today, my verbal promise will not be counted." Zheng Wentong Say.

Huang Zitao made the wisest decision in his history, "That's the way, 0 salary, I contribute 200 million, count my 200 million investment."

Huang Zitao's investment of 200 million yuan brought him a huge profit of 1800 million yuan.

"Wolf Warrior 2" is expected to invest 2.02 million yuan, Wu Jing's Dengfeng International will contribute 8000 million yuan, Zheng Wentong's Pony Gallop will contribute 8000 million yuan, Principal Wang will personally contribute 2000 million yuan, Zheng Wentong and Bai Xiaolu's Tonglu Investment Fund will contribute 2000 million yuan, and Huang Zitao will personally invest 200 million yuan. Invest [-] million.

After Zheng Wentong finalized Huang Zitao's role as Huang Sicong, the cast of "Wolf Warrior 2" has been formed: Wu Jing, Frank Grillo, Huang Zitao, Wu Gang, Ding Haifeng, Yu Qian, Lu Jingshan.

Yu Qian and Lu Jingshan were contacted by Wu Jing. Wu Gang and Ding Haifeng happened to be filming "In the Name of the People" in Puhai, and Zheng Wentong helped to contact them.

Zheng Wentong specially added a plot to Huang Sicong in the script of "Wolf Warrior 2". Leng Feng, played by Wu Jing, asked Huang Sicong about his life ideals. Huang Sicong pondered for a while, and answered the four words "revitalize China"!
Zheng Wentong is also waiting to see if "Wolf Warrior 2" released next year can replicate the 56.8 billion box office myth?
