I'm not just a director

Chapter 212 Signing
Zhou Xingchi has been nominated for gold statues for so many years since his debut.

But only in 2002 with "Shaolin Soccer" did he win the best actor.

It is enough to prove how unpopular it is in Hong Kong Province.

What attracted the most attention in 2002 was not Zhou Xingchi, but a single sentence.

Mrs. Lin Xiaoming, Chairman of Huanyu International:

"Justice rests in the heart, and truth endures forever."

Because of "Shaolin Soccer", Zhou Xingchi finally won the long-awaited Academy Award.

But because he suffered too much unfair treatment from Xiang during the filming.

So there was this insinuating sentence to Xiangshi.

And before that, since "Shaolin Soccer" hit the Quartet in Hong Kong Province, the Hong Kong circle set off a wave of "reversal".

You must know that even if Xiang Jia is not calling the wind and rain in Hong Kong Province, he can cover the sky with one hand!

Although the situation is true, the Xiang family is not the only big boss in the Hong Kong province, but Han Shanping is the only one in the mainland.

To give an inappropriate example:

Han Shanping is the chairman (deputy) of the state-owned film group, and holds the power of life and death of Huaxia film and television works in his hands.

In Han Shanping's eyes, Xiang Shi is just a small boss of a private enterprise.

Whether the films produced by Yongsheng can be released in the mainland and whether they can be exported overseas are all within the jurisdiction of Han Shanping.

……

Zhou Xingchi went to see Han Shanping, but Jiang Pei'an did not follow.

He can probably guess the purpose of Zhou Xingchi's visit to the mainland this time.

One is to thank, after all, the achievements of "Shaolin Soccer" are obvious to all.

The second is to come to rescue soldiers.

The trend of "reversing the week" intensified in Hong Kong Province, and Zhou Xingchi had to come to the mainland for help.

Jiang Pei'an didn't know what the two talked about, but Jiang Pei'an got news about Song Dazui from Gao Chengsheng a few days later.

"Pei'an, I don't know who got the surname Song, and all the companies he opened were shut down.

He himself has also been controlled by relevant departments for crimes involving fraud and pyramid schemes.

It is estimated that he has provoked someone who should not be provoked this time. "

Jiang Pei'an nodded and said:
"Well, okay, I see."

It seems that it should be Haiyan's shot.

The method is not clever, but it is the most effective.

Song Dazui made his fortune by relying on methods similar to pyramid schemes. Such a person is not clean at all and cannot withstand investigation.

"Then my side?"

"Since he's gone in, we don't have to worry about it, so don't worry."

Jiang Pei'an said slowly.

"it is good."

……

"Boss Jiang, Boss Shen is all ready."

Sister Su Yu came over with an album.

The cover of the album is Zhou Peng wearing an ancient costume, which looks quite old-fashioned.

Jiang Pei'an held the album in his hand and played with it for a while, then said:
"Don't be in a hurry to go online, let Mr. Shen take Zhou Peng to go to the radio, TV and variety shows to promote it first.

As for the breaking point... I will also cooperate with their promotion at that time. "

Zhou Peng's album focuses on the Chinese style, and Jiang Pei'an has edited several versions since the recording came out.

Now this version is finalized, and he is very satisfied with the effect.

"Okay, Zhou Peng will be a guest at Beijing Traffic Radio Station the night after tomorrow to promote his new album.

Mr. Shen means that he wants to invite you to be a guest on the live radio station with Zhou Peng. Can you see it? "

Jiang Pei'an thought for a while, and since he had nothing to do the night after tomorrow, he nodded and said:
"After all, it's the first album released by the company's first singer, so it's still very commemorative. Okay, I'll be there the day after tomorrow."

Miss Su Yu smiled and said:
"Isn't that right, now our Xinghuo finally has a serious business."

Jiang Pei'an said helplessly:

"What does it mean to have a serious business at last, and which thing you did before was not serious?"

Miss Su Yu gave him a blank look and said:

"We have a lot of business, but they are all solved directly from your side, which makes us very incompetent."

Jiang Pei'an spread his hands and said:
"Boss Su, you should be lucky to have a boss like me who won't deduct your salary or make you work overtime.

As long as you go to work and get paid, this is the perfect job that many migrant workers dream of. "

"But I just want to work now."

Su Qing said helplessly.

The capitalists would cry when Su Qing heard these words, and they couldn't stop beating the workers. Who can bear this.

Could this be the legendary introversion?
Jiang Pei'an said slowly:

"I understand what you mean, how is Ninghao?"

"What else, since we made the announcement to the public, the people at Lionsgate can't wait to take him to Canada to prepare for the filming of "Chain Saw 2".

Ning Hao called yesterday and asked, are you still going there to participate in the filming?

People from Lionsgate are still inquiring about the progress of "Ghost Shadow 3", in my opinion, these foreigners have really tasted the sweetness..."

Jiang Pei'an nodded and said:
"Tell Ninghao, I won't go to shoot, but I will definitely be the chief producer of this series.

In addition, the script of "Ghost Shadow 3" has already been written, but as previously agreed, Starfire Entertainment will also participate in the investment. "

Both the "Chain Saw" series and the "Ghost Shadow" series have been extended to the second part, and each has loyal fans.

In the words of later generations, this has become an IP, as long as the filming continues, there will be money to be made.

Of course, this is under the premise of maintaining quality.

Later generations made six "Ghost Shadows" and eight "Chain Saw".

The first three episodes of these two series were very good, but the subsequent films all showed their own fatigue.

But the box office has always been guaranteed, at least the income is still no problem.

The reason for this phenomenon is that the input cost of these two series is outrageously low, but the rate of return is astonishing.

Of course, Jiang Pei'an would not miss this opportunity to make money.

"Okay, I will communicate with him. By the way, if the filming of "Ghost Shadow 3" starts now, will Ning Hao have no time?"

Su Qing asked suddenly.

Jiang Pei'an shook his head and said:

"I don't need Ning Hao to be in charge of "Ghost Shadow 3". Find someone else to overshoot..."

Before Jiang Pei'an finished speaking, his mobile phone rang suddenly. He picked up the mobile phone and looked at it, and said with a smile:
"No, say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will be here."

"Ok?"

Su Qing was puzzled.

Jiang Pei'an had already picked up the phone and said with a smile:
"Guan Dao, why did you remember to call me?"

The caller was Guan Hu who I met at the award ceremony last time.

Guan Hu said with a wry smile:
"Some time ago, I was working on the post-production stage of the film, and I shut myself in a small black room and basically cut off contact with the outside world.

Didn't the little black house contact you just now when he came out of the black house. "

Jiang Pei'an nodded. When he was working on the later stage of "Ghost Shadows", he was basically busy in the dark.

He is very familiar with this state, so he can understand Guan Hu's state.

"Are you in the capital now?"

"Yes."

Guan Hu replied.

"Okay, then you come to my side first, let's continue the topic we talked about last time, and I will send you the address later."

"Okay, I'll go right now."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Pei'an said to Su Qing:
"To prepare a director's signing contract, the treatment...just according to what Ning Hao had just entered the company...

Let's stick to the lower level than Ninghao's now, and focus on improving the division. "

Jiang Pei'an thought for a while and added.

Guan Hu is not a rookie director like Ning Hao, but a director with certain directing experience and awards.

It would be somewhat insulting to give Guan Hu the same treatment that Ninghao had in the past.

"Are you going to sign a new director?"

Su Qing asked happily.

"Yes, I'll give you a new award, the winner of the Golden Rooster Award."

Jiang Pei'an said with a smile.

"Winner of the Golden Rooster Award? Isn't it the awards ceremony you attended some time ago? Boss, how did you fool him?"

Jiang Pei'an smiled mysteriously and said:
"Money ability."

"superpower?"

Su Qing was a little puzzled, but seeing the strange smile on Jiang Pei'an's face, she rolled her eyes and said:
"It's boring, I'll ask someone from the legal department to draw up a contract."

"By the way, draw up another actor contract."

"Actor, handsome or beautiful?"

Su Qing hurriedly turned around and asked.

Jiang Pei'an thought for a while and said:

"Let's say he's a handsome guy. I'm not sure if I'll sign it. You should prepare first."

Su Qing nodded, but she was puzzled:
A handsome guy is a handsome guy, so what do you mean?

About an hour later, Guan Hu hurried over.

Beside him is the lady from Qingdao, Brother Bo.

"Director Guan, Brother Bo, you told me to wait."

Jiang Pei'an put away the two artist contracts he was looking at, moved the contracts under the table calmly, got up and poured tea for the two of them.

"Oh, you can't do it, you can't do it, Director Jiang, sit down and leave the tea to me."

Brother Bo with long hair quickly took the teapot from Jiang Pei'an's hand and spoke in his unique Qingdao Mandarin.

"Hehe, I'll trouble Brother Bo, please sit down, supervisor."

"it is good."

Guan Hu is 1.9 meters tall, and sitting on a chair is still very oppressive.

He took the tea made by Huang Bo, smiled and said:
"Just after I came out of the editing room, I saw two trailers of Director Jiang's movie, and to be honest, the filming was really good.

On the way here, I was still discussing with Huang Bo. If we had come to shoot this movie, it would probably have hit the street by now.

Except for you, Director Jiang, no one else will be able to produce such a movie effect. "

Jiang Pei'an shook his head and said:

"Different directors have different styles. Just like making tea, Boge brews it with one taste, but Guan guides you to brew it with another taste."

Holding the teacup, Huang Bo said with a smile:

"Guan Dao, Jiang Dao is implying that you hurry up and make a cup of tea for us."

Jiang Pei'an and Guan Hu were amused by Huang Bo's words.

Huang Bo's high EQ is recognized by the entertainment industry, and what impressed people the most was the classic rebuttal when he was made things difficult at the Golden Horse Awards.

And he once had a conversation with Ma Yun that made people call it amazing.

Ma Yun asked Huang Bo:
"Can you give me a free endorsement?"

In the face of such a big coffee, if you directly refuse, you will be left cold.

So Huang Bo said in a roundabout way:
"I can endorse you for free, but can you send me a car?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Yun said boldly:
"No matter what car you want, I promise you."

Huang Bo showed an embarrassed expression and said:
"If Mr. Ma can give me a Taobao shopping cart, I will give you a free endorsement."

Ma Yun was also happy when she heard it, and what Huang Bo wanted was to empty the Taobao shopping cart.

It has to be said that Huang Bo has a high emotional intelligence when dealing with difficult issues.

Not only solved their own difficult situation, but also saved enough face for the other party.

"Director Jiang, about what we said last time in Jiangsu and Zhejiang..."

As soon as Guan Hu opened his mouth, Jiang Pei'an waved his hand and said:

"Let's not talk about this."

Hearing Jiang Pei'an's words, Guan Hu and Huang Bo looked at each other, seeing a hint of worry in each other's eyes.

Jiang Pei'an is... repenting?

Of course Jiang Pei'an didn't know what they were thinking, he took out a stack of manuscript paper from the lockbox.

Jiang Pei'an pushed the manuscript paper towards the two of them, and said:

"Both of you know that I started out shooting horror movies, and this one is the third in the "Ghost Shadow" series."

As a filmmaker, Guan Hu certainly knows about the "Ghost Shadow" series, which is Jiang Pei'an's fortune-telling work.

He was surprised that Jiang Pei'an actually took out the script of "Ghost Shadow 3" at this time.

Is it...

Guan Hu thought of a possibility, but he is not sure yet.

"If Director Guan joins my company, "Ghost Shadow 3" will be your first project."

Guan Hu took a breath.

The moment he got the script, he thought of this possibility, but he still couldn't believe it.

What is the concept of directing "Ghost Shadow 3"?
For details, please refer to Ning Hao.

Ning Hao is a college student majoring in directing, and a rookie director who usually earns his living by selling paintings.

Before that, he had been in an unknown state, let alone the film and television industry.

He Ning Hao is not considered a celebrity in Beijing Normal University, let alone compared with graduates of professional film and television academies such as Nortel and China Opera.

But the key is that Jiang Pei'an has taken a fancy to him.

Since then, it has become an instant hit, and "Ghost Shadow 2" has exploded all over the world, despite Jiang Pei'an's popularity and the influence of the previous movie.

But Ning Hao's name is written in the column of the director of "Ghost Shadow 2", and Hollywood and the audience also know this name.

If Ning Hao returns to China to work alone, as long as he speaks to the outside world, many people will definitely come to ask for cooperation with money.

This is the influence brought by a movie, and this is Jiang Pei'an's star-making ability!

Now this opportunity is in front of him, which makes Guan Hu not excited.

After all, he had raised his own money for a movie, but it was a complete failure, and almost wiped out his family's wealth.

Guan Hu and Huang Bo flipped through the movie script together.

The plots of the "Ghost Shadow" series are actually quite simple. The first one tells the story of my sister's encounter with A Piao at home.

The second part is about A Piao who met at my sister's house.

The third part returns to the film and tells that the heroines of the first two films moved into a brand new house with their parents when they were children.

After that, supernatural events emerged one after another. When they installed cameras in every corner of the house.

The picture captured by the camera is even more creepy...

"Director Jiang, I want to make this movie."

Guan Hu looked at Jiang Pei'an seriously and said.

Jiang Pei'an smiled slightly, took out the contract that Su Qing had drawn up from under the table, and pushed it towards Guan Hu.

"Just sign it and become the director of Starfire Entertainment."

Wouldn't it be a bond of sale?
This was the first thought that came to Guan Hu's mind.

It is like an apple full of temptation, and you will have wisdom if you eat it.

But at the same time, they will be expelled from the Garden of Eden...
