Chapter 183 World-Class Movie Capitalist

Lu Chen sat down again.

It seems that Zhang Yingmou is not in a hurry to reconnect with Gong Li.

"Director Lu, are you interested in investing in my next movie? How about you being the producer?" Zhang Yingmou offered the invitation.

Thinking that two years ago, this junior was just a director.

Now it is the top film capitalist in China.

He is also the first film capitalist in China to invest in top foreign commercial films.

In the world film industry, has a place.

The movies and TV series produced by Mars Films and Television have sold well at the box office, and the ratings of the TV series are all in the top ten of the year, and the investment works have made a lot of money.

As the largest investor in the world's hottest "Inception" this year, Mars Film and Television has made a lot of money.

Mars Film and Television has also become a domestic, no, it should be a miracle for world film companies, it is definitely the only one, and no work is losing money.

And Lu Chen is more than Martian Film and Television.

Under it, Jupiter Cinemas, Mercury Special Effects, and Saturn Video.

These are companies related to the film and television industry.

All are among the best in the industry.

Especially Jupiter Cinemas.

Help Lu Chen become a real movie capitalist.

As seniors from Beijing Film Academy, they all started begging this junior, Lu Chen, to be the director.

"Director Lu, if you cooperate with Director Zhang Yingmou, you will definitely be expected by the audience." Gong Li also wanted Lu Chen to be the producer of the film.

There is no doubt about Lu Chen's ability to direct.

these two.

Zhang Yingmou is a leading figure in the fifth generation of mainland directors.

Director Lu Chen is a leading figure in the sixth generation of mainland directors.

If two people collaborate on a movie, it will be naturally hot.

Zhang Yingmou looked at Lu Chen, waiting for his answer.

Get Lu Chen to be the film producer.

I don't want to worry about investing.

The new movie "Golden Armor in the City".

Zhang Yingmou has great ambitions.

The investment is more than that of "The Promise", which cost [-] million yuan to produce.

What you want is to invest in the title of the highest pure Chinese film.

I talked to my old partner Lao Zhang before.

He was really taken aback when he said that the investment was more than that of "The Promise".

Zhang Weiping said that it would be best to share the risk if it can attract investment from Mars Film and Television.

This is also in line with Zhang Yingmou's intentions.

With the joining of director Lu Chen, it is true that he will not worry about money and can get more attention.

Now Zhang Yingmou thinks that if he makes a movie, he won't get as much attention as Director Lu Chen.

"Let the Bullets Fly" directed by Lu Chen broke the record of "Titanic" and kept the face of Chinese-language films.

An "Inception" has made Chinese-language films one of the most popular in the world. When will Chinese-language films be able to show their faces in the world, breaking 10 billion US dollars, and ranking among the top five in the global box office.

this result.

In Hollywood, it is also the existence of explosion.

Not to mention putting it in Huaguo, it is definitely enough to be a god.

The person who has the most fans in China right now is definitely Director Lu Chen.

Using movies to help the Chinese show a good face in the world and increase the face of the Chinese.

how many years.

No Chinese has ever been so tough internationally.

"Director Zhang, you know that I'm busy, and the filming of "Transformers" directed by me is not finished yet, so I really don't have enough time." Lu Chen politely declined, "As for the investment, I definitely want to invest, but the company doesn't have much money on the books. The funds are ready, "Transformers" invested 1.3 million US dollars, and Mars Film and Television accounted for more than half of it."

Lu Chen came from the future.

In the previous life, he was also a director.

He has a detailed understanding of Huaguo's well-known movies over the years.

The investment of 3.6 million in "The Golden Flower in the City" in the previous life broke the investment record of "The Promise".

The box office in the Mainland was 2.91 million.

The box office did not invest much.

And of course the global box office.

However, unlike "Hero", "The Golden Flower" did not achieve good results in the world.

It grossed $7900 million worldwide.

Not as good as "Heroes" at all.

In conversion, it is only more than 6 million.

Compared with the cost of 3.6 million, it must be a loss.

Lu Chen needs money very much now, and all the companies under him need money to develop, and they will not use money to trade at a loss.

Feelings belong to feelings.

Money to gold.

Although Zhang Yingmou was his senior brother, Lu Chen would not do business at a loss.

"Director Lu, I understand." Zhang Yingmou said it was all right, and didn't say anything more about the investment.

heard before.

When director Chen Kaige was filming "The Promise", he also approached Lu Chen for investment, but he was also politely rejected. The meaning was the same. Although the company made money, it was short of money.

Zhang Yingmou also knows that Mars Films has really invested in a lot of projects recently, not only the "Transformers" filmed by director Lu Chen himself, but also the works directed by the company's newcomers.

Ning Hao, Wu Ershan, and Yang Lei followed Lu Chen as director.

Otherwise it is impossible, there will be so many opportunities to shoot works.

"Director Zhang, I'm really sorry." Lu Chen apologized.

"Director Lu, don't get in the way." Zhang Yingmou wasn't too worried about the investment.

Relying on his own name, he can still bring in more than 3 million yuan in investment, and with the support of Lao Zhang, "Director Lu, there is a character in my new movie that is very suitable for you. The second prince Yuanjie in it is just for you." Tailor-made."

I don't want to be a producer.

It's okay for Nala to be an actor.

Add popularity to the movie.

Of course, Director Lu Chen's acting skills are also recognized by Zhang Yingmou.

It's just that Director Lu Chen's acting skills were overwhelmed by his ability to direct and write scripts.

"Director Zhang, I'm really busy. It's okay if I play tricks." Lu Chen also knew what Director Zhang Yingmou meant, and wanted to join him to increase his popularity.

Just really don't have the time.

I can't even make a movie, so I don't have time to act.

"Director Lu, I'm joking, you are the No.1 young director in the world, how can I let you play tricks." Gong Li joked.

"Xiao Li, you're right. Director Lu, you are now a senior director, and your status is different." Zhang Yingmou also laughed, mainly to ease the embarrassment of being rejected twice. When he thinks of something, "Director Lu, how about you I recommend someone."

Several leading actors.

Almost set.

The male lead is Zhou Runfa.

The heroine Gong Li.

It is the same as the heroine and heroine of "Let the Bullets Fly" directed by Director Lu Chen.

Zhang Yingmou also wanted to let the two of them reach new heights and break the record of "Let the Bullets Fly".

As for the other leading actor in the movie, the hero's son, also the second prince Yuan Jie, was indeed set up according to Lu Chen, but unexpectedly, he was rejected again.

I had no choice but to ask Lu Chen to recommend someone.

Director Lu Chen's vision is still very unique.

With the "Crazy" series, Huang Bo became well-known in China. This year's "Golden Heist" broke through [-] million, stepping on Feng Xiaogang's "Night Banquet".

Wang Baoqiang.

Belonging to an actor with special characteristics, director Lu Chen developed his characteristics and starred in "Blind Well" and "On the Journey".

Let the audience remember this silly actor.

And this year's popular military drama "Soldier Assault".

Let Wang Baoqiang, who played the role of "Xu Sanduo", be well known in the whole country.

Zhang Yingmou also watched "Soldier Assault" on purpose. It is very good-looking, and you can see the skills of the director behind it. The TV series are different from the movies, and the length is very long.

You can't make a TV series in the same way as a movie.

Director Lu Chen told the story in "Soldier Assault", the story is very touching and delicate, and you can taste it slowly.

Of course, the best thing is that director Lu Chen knows how to arouse the emotions of the audience in the play. This is also the reason why "Soldiers Assault" became popular and triggered a wave of domestic military participation.

Of course, there are also the four little stars of Mars Film and Television.

There are also many newcomers.

Zhang Yingmou admired director Lu Chen's ability to train new actors.

Others are holding one.

Director Lu Chen is a crowd.

This is also the reason why Mars Film and Television is the dream sanctuary for all new domestic actors.

Just go to Mars Movies and TV.

Half a foot has stepped into the ranks of well-known movie stars.

Then he was spotted by Director Lu.

Then the future must be a well-known movie star known all over the country.

"I can't recommend it." Lu Chen wanted to recommend artists from Mars Film and Television Company, but he didn't invest in them or act in them, so he was really embarrassed to say so.

"Director Lu, your vision is recognized by the world." Zhang Yingmou joked, "I still don't want to say that there are good actors who want to use it themselves."

Speaking of this, Lu Chen had no choice but to talk about someone casually, "How about singer Zhou Jielun from Taiwan?"

In the previous life.

It was Jay Chou who played the role of the second prince Yuan Jie in "The Golden Flower in the City".

But Lu Chen felt it.

Zhang Yingmou doesn't know how to use Jay Chou.

I know how high director Zhang Yingmou's expectations are for "Curse of the Golden Flower".

The most luxurious movie lineups are used.

The invited actors are all professional movie stars.

Jay Chou's main business is still singing, acting is just for fun.

"Jay Chou?" Zhang Yingmou was stunned for a moment, the person recommended by Director Lu Chen was novel enough, his eyes lit up in the next second, "Director Lu, don't tell me, the Jay Chou you said is really good."

"..." Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, and wanted to ask, Director Zhang Yingmou, are you serious?

"It seems that Director Lu has watched the movie "Initial D" released this year." Gong Li said affirmatively, "I have also watched this movie, and Jay Chou's performance in it is really good. Although he is a professional singer, his acting skills It’s really not inferior to some professional actors.”

"Xiao Li, you and Director Lu agree, I need to find someone to talk to Jay Chou." Zhang Yingmou didn't think he liked Jay Chou's acting skills.

But popularity.

Currently the most famous singer in the country.

None other than Jay Chou.

"Nunchaku", "Dongfeng Po", "Qilixiang" and so on.

It has a particularly high popularity in China and has a large number of fans.

If Jay Chou joins, it will indeed increase the film's box office a lot.

Unexpectedly, the person recommended by Director Lu Chen was exactly what he wanted.

"..." Lu Chen was stunned. He really took it as a joke just now, thinking that in this life, Zhang Yingmou would not use Baodao singer Zhou Jielun. It seemed that God had his own will.

Seeing that the conversation was about the same, he raised his hand and glanced at his watch, "Director Zhang, it's getting late, I have something to do, so I'll go first, you and Teacher Gong Li eat slowly."

This time Director Zhang Yingmou did not persuade him to stay.

I'm afraid that we will continue our relationship with Gong Li.

The same goes for Lu Chen, who has to go to Aunt Liu's house too.

……

'Drip-dong'

The doorbell rang in the room.

Liu Yifei, who was sitting on the sofa, got up instantly when she heard the doorbell.

Forgot to wear shoes.

Playing barefoot.

Run to the door.

open the door.

It's definitely my brother.

Kindly call.

Two dimples appeared on the cheeks.

Very happy.

It's been a while since I saw my brother.

Recently, I listened to my brother's orders.

I have been studying in Beijing Film Academy and learning acting knowledge.

And I have always missed Senior Brother in my heart, and I can finally meet today.

"Your coat is not bad." Lu Chen looked at it seriously.

"Brother, you are not filming the live-action "Transformers" movie, I bought a 'Transformers' toy joint shirt on Amazon..." Liu Yifei was talking happily, but suddenly realized.

scream.

She ran back shyly.

Just remembered.

Only wear this T-shirt.

Because there are only me and my mother in the house, I dress very casually, as comfortable as possible.

Just heard the doorbell.

too excited.

Forgot to change clothes.

"Xiaochen, you're here." Liu Xiaoli came out of the kitchen. Today, Xiaochen came here to give the nanny a break. After all, it's inconvenient to have a nanny. "What happened to Yifei just now?"

when coming out of the kitchen.

I saw my daughter running to the room quickly.

Could it be that Xiaochen did something excessive to his daughter?
If so.

That would be great too.

This is long overdue.

Just wait for Xiaochen to take the initiative and become a family as soon as possible.

"Yifei may have remembered something important and went back to the room." Lu Chen couldn't say that your daughter was dressed too coolly, so he was embarrassed to run back to the room, "Aunt Liu, these are for blood."

Lift the gift in your hand.

"Xiaochen, we are all one family, what are you doing seeing outsiders like this." Liu Xiaoli pretended to be angry, "Next time you are not allowed to bring gifts, otherwise, I have to discount them to you."

Talk about taking money.

"Aunt Liu, let's forget it this time, I will definitely not bring another gift next time." Lu Chen didn't dare to accept the money, and Aunt Liu gave him the money, which is easily misunderstood.

"Xiaochen, next time you come, you can't bring gifts." Liu Xiaoli took back the money, "Xiaochen, did you ring the doorbell just now? Didn't you have the key? Did you lose it? Then you have to get another one quickly." Bundle."

As he spoke, he took out his key.

"Aunt Liu, it's not lost. I forgot to bring it." How could Lu Chen open the door and come in directly.

The mother and daughter are at home.

How embarrassing if you see a bad scene.

Just like just now.

Liu Yifei was only wearing a T-shirt, and her long legs were exposed to the air.

"Mom~" At this time Liu Yifei changed into a skirt and put on all the clothes she should wear, "Brother~"

The blush on his face couldn't fade away.

"Yifei, why did you run away just now, girl, you should pay attention to your image." Liu Xiaoli reprimanded her, running away as often as she wanted, even in front of the minister, this is not to lose her impression points.

Girls, if you want to be a lady, you can't be careless.

To be a gentle girl.

This is what men like.

"Oh~" Liu Yifei was so shy that she didn't dare to look at her senior brother, and she didn't know if her senior brother had noticed just now.

"Xiaochen, take your seat quickly. You came just in time, and all the dishes are ready." Liu Xiaoli said, took off her apron, and invited everyone to the restaurant to take a seat.

Lu Chen looked at the dishes on the table.

Scrambled eggs with chives, bitter gourd stuffed with wolfberry, mutton soup with sea cucumber...

This dish is too hard.

All are aphrodisiac.

Of course, it is still a little worse than Baby Niu.

I wanted to ask Aunt Liu.

Why don't you fix baby Niu?

"Mom, what kind of dishes are you frying?" Liu Yifei looked at it, and there was no home-cooked dish, so how could the senior brother eat it? Looking at the dishes, he didn't particularly have an appetite.

"Yifei, what do you know?" Liu Xiaoli was also worried about her daughter's future, "Xiaochen, Aunt Liu cooked these by herself, please eat more, don't disappoint Aunt Liu's heart."

Lu Chen smiled awkwardly.

"Xiao Chen, eat, you're welcome." Liu Xiaoli asked Lu Chen to use his chopsticks, opened the red wine on the table, and poured three glasses, one for each.

Lu Chen stretched out his chopsticks, and finally put them down again, "Yifei, I heard from President Zhang that you are studying in school recently and your grades are very good. It seems that you are ready."

Hurry up and talk about business.

It is better to eat a little less of these dishes, as it is easy to make up for nosebleeds.

"Brother, I have been preparing." Liu Yifei became excited.

Brother said it before.

Get yourself a movie.

To help myself hit the best actress in major film festivals.

So Liu Yifei has been waiting.

Seeing that Yang Mi starred in "Transformers", Zhao Liying starred in "Golden Heist", and Liu Shishi starred in "Baby Project", there must be no rush.

Instead, he was studying at the Peking Film Academy with peace of mind, quietly waiting for his senior brother to call him.

"Xiaochen, Yifei has been waiting for you. She has been ready for a long time. She hasn't appeared in any work recently. Either she is studying at school or at home, and she doesn't go anywhere. Yifei has never studied so hard before." While Liu Xiaoli was talking, she also helped Lu Chen pick up vegetables.

I am also very happy in my heart.

This little minister finally thought of his daughter.

Before that, I left my daughter alone for a while.

Worry Liu Xiaoli to death.

Especially the heroine of "Transformers" invested 1.3 million US dollars to Yang Mi.

I'm afraid that my daughter will lose the seat of the number one female artist of Martian Film and Television in the future.
