Food starts from cooking

Imperial City!

In a certain apartment!
Sister Shang, who was sorting out the report, heard the sound of the door opening and looked up to see that Zhou Fa had returned.

She adjusted her glasses and said, "I've already screened out, and we'll join the group when the activities in hand are over!"

Zhou Fa lost money because of selling his house and filming a movie. His life is not good now, otherwise he would not live in an apartment. Of course, no matter how poor this kind of big star is, he will not be so poor that he cannot afford to eat.

It’s like what a celebrity in the circle said in an interview in front of the microphone: When I was the poorest, my card was only 100 million.

100 million!

It's more like ten yuan or one hundred yuan. This is also the consumption concept of some stars in the entertainment circle.

Zhou Fa didn't respond, and Sister Shang didn't care either. She knew that Zhou Fa's luck was bad, but she liked to run into trouble, so she was in a bad mood, so she just watched Zhou Fa wash his face, change his clothes, pour a glass of water, and come over sat down.

Finally, Zhou Fa spoke.

"Help me push the latest event!"

As soon as the words came out, Sister Shang frowned, her face was a little unhappy, and said: "I think you still don't know your current situation, because of your willful actions, let's not talk about the company's losses for the time being, your own financial situation It's all gone wrong, and you still have a loan that you haven't paid off..."

Sister Shang posted to Zhou one by one, and said, "Do you know how much effort I have spent trying to find these activities for you? In addition, there is this drama, although it is not a show, but...it is also very important Character, you are not too young now, and if you go down, you have to switch to the powerful faction, and the speed of making money in the powerful faction is not as good as idols!"

Zhou Fa took a sip of water, put down his glass, and said with a smile on his face, "I found the show!"

Miss Shang: ...

"Movie?"

Zhou Fa nodded!

Sister Shang frowned, and said angrily, "I don't agree!"

Zhou Fa's bad luck started from making a movie, and several directors couldn't get it up, and then he invested himself, directed and acted himself, and lost everything all at once.

In her opinion, Zhou Fa shouldn't touch movies anymore, at least for five or six years.

I thought that after suffering such a big loss, Zhou Fa should have a long memory, but he never expected that he still had the idea of ​​making a movie.

As for why she directly disagreed when she heard that it was a movie... Nonsense, with Zhou Fang's current reputation, what good movie crew can she find?

It's nothing more than some [-]th-line small crews, rushing to Zhou Fa's reputation, and then making bad movies to justify the money.

Yes, although Zhou Fa is a box office poison, but... After all, he is also Shidi. If it is those small investment movies in the early million, with Zhou Fa's name, no matter how you say it, you can get back your money!

The reason why she disagreed was because of Zhou Fa's reputation.

"You can't waste your fame and popularity like this anymore!"

Listening to Sister Shang's earnest persuasion, Zhou Fa had no choice but to say, "Can't you hear who's group is this time?"

Sister Shang took a deep breath and motioned for him to say.

then……

"Preacher!"

Sister Shang was taken aback, a little doubt flashed in her eyes, and after a while, she asked, "Who?"

"Preacher, Mr. Zhou from Memory Point!"

Sister Shang got up awkwardly, turned around and looked out of the apartment window, after a while, she turned her head in disbelief: "Is it true?"

"real!"

……

Brilliant Group Headquarters!

Inside the conference room!
Sister Shang and Zhou Fa are here, of course, there are also familiar faces here, the leader of the three generations, Director Zhang!
"So... you found it yourself?"

Zhou Fa nodded, looked at the vice president, and said, "That's right, "In the Name of the People" exploded. They had a party at China World Trade Center, and I got in touch with Tong Ying through Sister Tongying!"

Zhou Fa briefly explained the matter. After all, he is a brilliant actor. Although he won this opportunity by himself and did not go through the company, but... even so, it still has to be approved by the company.

After Zhou Fa finished speaking, everyone present looked at me and I looked at you.

Many people have a headache about Zhou Fa's matter. After all... this guy was one of the company's cash cows before, but the problem is that he is not very stable. Of course, compared to other people, Zhou Fa is actually very stable. After all, Zhou Fa Fa just wants to make a movie, but other people... either pick up girls or break the moral bottom line, this ass has to be wiped by the company.

"Have you given me the notebook?"

"Not yet, but Teacher Zhou has already called me to go to Long City!"

Long City is Yi Dian's plate, and everyone in the circle basically knows about it now, so many people go to Long City to try their luck, after all...

If it falls into the eyes of the evangelist, or a little less, directly enters the memory point to work, maybe there is a chance to be on the big screen.

This meeting is actually very necessary, after all...

Preacher is a prolific and high-level director, in case...

On the contrary, Director Zhang was obviously a little unconvinced: "Hey, this preacher, does he really like challenges?"

The sour smell in these words almost spread to the entire conference room, Zhou Fa was dissatisfied, and thought that if you can't do it, can others not?
"Okay, since the evangelist has this idea, your activities will be temporarily postponed during this period of time. Well, besides...you can help me to ask if this new play of yours needs investment!"

The preacher's new play!
You know, the last play of The Evangelist was during the Spring Festival, and "In the Name of the People" has been released throughout this year, but this is a TV series after all, and fans in the movie market are waiting for food.

Calculating the time, the drama of The Preacher may be prepared for the Spring Festival.

That being the case...

The possibility of explosion is not out of the question, as for the box office poison weekly...what if it happens?
The vice president's words made Director Zhang unhappy, but at this level, it's useless to slap your mouth. After all, what if you don't do it well and get slapped in the face instead.

So he'll just have to wait and see.

……

"Mr. Huang, this opportunity is not easy. If you seize it, you may become a hit!"

On the plane flying directly from Huating to Long City, Yan Run was chatting with a tall man beside him!

These two...

They are all people in the entertainment industry. Yan Run has directly entered the Huating Repertory Theater for further studies since Ning Caichen became popular. It has been several years now.

As for Mr. Huang beside him, his full name is Huang Long!
Speaking of Huang Long, this ten-year-old was a really popular niche, a master of idol dramas, mainly because of his good looks, but unfortunately, geniuses always seem to encounter obstacles.

Eight years ago, the popular Huanglong offended a certain boss and was directly blocked by the other party, so that he was abandoned by the company.

Of course, only Huang Long knew what happened back then, and at that time Huang Long was indeed quite high-profile and arrogant!
Now eight years have passed, the popular niche has turned into a sloppy middle-aged man, especially the receding hairline looks even more vicissitudes!
After Yan Run entered the Huating Drama Troupe, he got a lot of help from Huang Long, so after sending a message to Zhou You to ask if there were any suitable candidates, Yan Run recommended several people, including Huang Long.

And Zhou You asked for Huanglong by name!
That's why Yan Run and Huang Long went west to Longshi!
"This... Is Mr. Zhou easy to get along with?"

Huang Long was a little apprehensive.

For the preacher, he has long been known. After all... Although he has left the entertainment industry, but... he still has one foot. He basically knows what happened in the entertainment industry over the years.

And the biggest thing is the sudden emergence of preachers.

The second part of "Swordsman" broke [-] million. Although it is not the top of the Chinese-language chart, but returning to the [-] million box office is a shot in the arm for the Chinese-language film market!

"Don't worry, Teacher Zhou only cares about filming, and other people don't care. Otherwise, how could I go to Huating Repertory Theater after A Chinese Ghost Story explodes!"

Huang Long thought it was the same, if someone else's film became a hit in other companies, then they must take advantage of the fire and run a special show to make money.

but……

It seems that it is rare to hear actors from Yidian come out to run, such as Wen Qing, Pei Fu and the like.

only……

He was somewhat worried. After all, he was kicked out of the entertainment industry at the beginning. Although the opportunity fell on him, if... because of him causing problems in this drama... then he would really block his life completely. Star journey, and there is no chance again.

With trepidation in mind, the two landed on the ground.

And at the airport, someone from the company has already driven over to pick it up, and then went straight to Memory Point!
……

"Tsk, changed the type again?"

"This type... the review is no problem!"

"The story is a bit corny!"

This book is called "The True Colors of Heroes", and it tells the story between several men. To be honest, everyone is not optimistic about it, because this story is a bit old-fashioned, and... there are no big hits in the book, but because the characters are set. Two-sidedness, so it is a test of acting skills!

Zhou Fa read the book and began to think about it!

In fact, it doesn't matter whether the stories are old or not. Many literary works are old wine in new bottles, and many ordinary stories can emit brilliance after interpretation.

Like this story!
There are basically no female characters in the play, but... this is a movie!

Movies are different from TV dramas. TV dramas don't have female characters or heroines, so it's basically dead!
But there are not a few movies that only have a male lead and no female lead, let alone... this book is all about brotherhood and loyalty!
Whether it's literary works or film and television works, everyone's focus seems to be love!
For example, the works produced before Zhou You.

"A Chinese Ghost Story", "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", and even "Swordsman", why are they all about love?
It’s nothing more than that it’s easy to write, and everyone loves to read it, but...you don’t like to read about family and country feelings, or brotherly loyalty?

It doesn't seem to be the case, it's just that few people make this kind of film well.

His role is marked in the book.

pony!

The charm of this character is still very good, and if he plays it...

While chatting here, Yuan Xiu came in chatting with someone.

Yan Run, Huang Long!
"Teacher Zhou!"

When Yan Run saw Zhou You, he hurriedly greeted him. He was a man of memory, but not a man of memory, so he didn’t work in the company, but he came to Long City to live for a period of time every year. There was also his house in Long City. My wife Ruolin comes to live here from time to time!

"This is Teacher Huang Long Huang!"

Zhou You nodded: "Sit down!"

Huang Long breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this company is really strange!

Along the way, he met Wen Qing, Pei Fu, Yuan Xiu, and Bai Zhou...

They are all big stars who are popular nowadays. In other companies, big stars of this level basically seldom appear in the company, because they are all sent out to participate in activities, or go out to film and so on.

In short, it's all about making money.

But here, Wen Qing and the others actually played mahjong in the company, and from what that meant, it seemed to be the norm!
so loose?
Shouldn't artists be the company's cash cow?
Brands are hanging on the body, and activities are coming one after another. I am so busy, I don’t touch the ground, and I eat a little...

At this time, Li Hao came in, saw Yan Run, his eyes lit up, and then looked at Zhou You: "Brother Zhou, shall I use it first?"

Zhou You raised his eyes and said, "Bai Jie hasn't come yet, why are you in a hurry!" Putting down the notebook, he said, "Okay, you can use it first!"

Yan Run: ...

Only then did he realize that there were actually two plays during his visit this time!
The second part of "A Chinese Ghost Story", "The True Colors of Heroes"!
"Bai Jie still has something to do, you should film Yan Run's scene first!"

After all, Bai Jie is the pillar of the Jiarong Group. It is impossible for him to have as much time as the Yidian actor. He sent a message to Bai Jie a few days ago, saying that the event date needs to be adjusted within a week!
A week is not long.

After finishing speaking, he gave the notebooks to the three of them respectively!

"Look carefully, think carefully, I only give you three days!"

Huang Long took the notebook and opened it, his expression froze.

This is……

His own portrait?

The first page was indeed a portrait of himself. In the portrait, he was wearing a black suit and black sunglasses.

and so……

This was drawn just now?

I heard before that the preacher is versatile, but now it seems that this is not versatile, this is simply a god.

It was decided in this way, and it seemed that he didn't ask other questions, but when signing the contract, Huang Long was a little apprehensive, after much deliberation, he found Zhou You.

"Teacher Zhou, there is something I want to tell you!"

Zhou You raised his head, looked at Huang Long, and saw that he seemed to want to go outside, so he followed him.

When he got to a place where no one was around, Huang Long was silent for a moment, and he told the story of how he was banned at the beginning, and even said the reason for being banned, and... Who did he offend.

"At the beginning, I was definitely not convinced and wanted to return to the entertainment industry. At that time, someone also approached me. Unfortunately, the play did not succeed in the end. After trying a few times, I completely gave up and worked in the repertory theater troupe with peace of mind. I am very grateful to Teacher Zhou for giving me this opportunity. To be honest, I also want this opportunity very much, but..."

The person who offended him has a lot of energy, so he can be firmly suppressed, but they just kicked him out of the entertainment industry, nothing else. He wanted to remind Zhou You, but at the same time, he was also afraid that Zhou You would really put him off after hearing this. I gave up.

This year he is 36 years old, this opportunity is not easy to come by, if he is really given up, then I am afraid that he will never return to the entertainment circle in the future.

After finishing speaking, Huang Long just stared at Zhou You.

After a long time, Zhou You smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "You shoot directly, whoever dares to make my film fail, I will copy his old background!"

Huang Long: ...

Damn, domineering!
Guiqiu full order, thank you!
