China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 402 Chapter 400. What was supposed to happen happened.

On May [-]th, the cast of "If You Are the One" finally reunited after a long vacation.

The first thing I took was the Xixi Wetland part.

This part of the scene is not very difficult and could have been shot very quickly. However, Director Cao has been working hard, taking half a day to shoot and half a day to rest. He was delayed for two days in Xixi.

Later, the scenes of Shu Qi in the teahouse and meeting her old lover were filmed at the Jiangnan Club in Guhuwan, Hangzhou.

"It would be better if it rained a little and gave me the mood of misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River."

When filming the scene of Ge You and Shu Qi walking across a covered bridge, Cao Yu looked at the material and felt that it seemed to miss the artistic conception. He shook his head, somewhat dissatisfied.

Assistant director Ning Hao quickly advised: "Boss, a little rain would be great, but my shooting progress has been delayed a lot."

"If you want to take pictures, take the best ones. Just wait until it rains. The environment here happens to be good. Let's take a holiday first and spend two days here."

"Have another holiday?"

In the past, when Boss Cao said they would have a holiday, everyone felt happy. Now that it is a holiday, Ning Hao and others can only say that the boss has a brain problem.

It's a pity that Cao Yu is not only a director, but also an investor. He sticks to his word on the crew. Since he said he would wait for rain, the entire crew had no choice but to wait.

Fortunately, it is rainy in the south. On May [-], a steady drizzle sprinkled the entire Hangzhou.

Under the hazy drizzle, the picture under the lens really has a different artistic conception.

Later, when the three of them met in the tea room, the patter of rain outside also added a lot of tranquility to the movie.

"Boss, I didn't understand it before, but now it seems that you are right. A little rain really makes a difference."

Ning Hao was completely convinced this time.

Even Ge You and the others felt that Director Cao was still very ambitious in art.

"Ha ha."

Cao Yu just smiled faintly, glanced at the horizon, and thought to himself: "What will happen tomorrow?"

The next day, the rain was still falling and getting heavier.

"Boss, are you still filming today?"

Assistant director Ning Hao called his boss early in the morning to ask for today's shooting plan.

"How can we shoot in this weather? Let's take a day off."

Cao Yu got up early and stood by the window of the hotel, looking into the distance in a daze.

Li Xiaojiao came over and hugged Cao Yu from behind: "Hubby, why do you look so uneasy?"

Cao Yu gently grabbed the woman's hand: "I don't know how long this rain will last."

"Don't you always like to take holidays? Why are you anxious now?"

"Haha, why am I worried? I wish I could spend more time with you."

"So the vacation is all for me?"

"Then what do you think?"

Cao Yu turned around with a smile, put his arm around the woman's waist, and asked, "I went home two days ago. Is the child okay?"

"It's very good. The little guy is crawling all over the floor now and is very skinny. I think he will be gone when he is one year old."

Speaking of her daughter, Li Xiaoshuo's face was filled with happiness.

"Haha, when we have the chance, we can have another one. Children are the most fun."

"You only know how to give birth. You don't even care about the child, you just know how to throw it to me."

Although he said so, Li Xiaoshuo actually wanted to have a son, as the mother was more valuable than the son.

Unfortunately, Cao Yu was not very interested in having a baby today.

I called and asked about the box office of "Iron Man" in the mainland, and sent an email abroad.

"Iron Man" has been in theaters for ten days, and the domestic box office is only over 200 million. It seems that it can only earn more than [-] million at most. It is difficult to break through [-] million.

Fortunately, the global box office is pretty good, and it has now reached the minimum target of US$[-] million.

Cao Yu previously invested some additional money in this film to make the final showdown between Iron Man and Iron Overlord more intense. Therefore, it has a good reputation and it should not be too difficult for the global box office to exceed US$[-] million.

"It's a pity that this film didn't win any Oscars. Although "Inception" won an award, the screenwriter only received one nomination."

Cao Yu thought to himself that he planned to film "Slumdog Millionaire" as soon as possible, so that he might win an Oscar and bring glory to the country.

After lunch, it was getting closer and closer to two o'clock in the afternoon.

While Cao Yu was checking the script of "Slumdog Millionaire" on his computer, he glanced at his phone from time to time.

Seeing that the time had passed 02:30, Cao Yu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "Is it really okay? Things have changed?"

At this moment, he suddenly heard a soft "ding" from his phone, and then a Weibo message appeared on his phone.

"At 2:28 this afternoon, an earthquake measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale occurred in the Wenchuan area of ​​Sichuan and Chongqing."

"Holy shit, it really happened." Cao Yu hurriedly said to Li Xiaoshu, who was lying on the bed reading a book, "There's an earthquake!"

With that said, he hurriedly turned on the TV.

"earthquake?"

Li Xiaoshuo was also startled, and then he heard that the incident was also reported on TV, but there was no picture or news of casualties yet.

"Magnitude 7.8, husband, this earthquake is not small."

Li Xiaoshuo asked casually after reading the brief news.

"Um"

Cao Yu nodded, picked up the phone, and called Zhou Juan: "Gather all the supplies purchased by the company. I will arrange the fleet now, and I will immediately transfer 5000 million to Sister Hong's foundation."

After making arrangements for Zhou Juan, he immediately called Liu Qiangdong: "Brother Dong, help me arrange a fleet of Jingdong Logistics to transport a batch of disaster relief materials to the Sichuan and Chongqing disaster areas immediately!"

"I'll arrange it right away!"

Liu Qiangdong had also seen Weibo and immediately provided unconditional cooperation to Cao Yu's request.

"Mr. Ren, there's an earthquake. Can the company immediately organize a rescue team to be ready to go to the disaster area at any time to make emergency repairs and restore communications?"

"I'll arrange it right away!"

"Sister Hong, I have transferred 5000 million to our charity foundation. You can purchase all the relief supplies in the name of the foundation. I have arranged a convoy to move to the disaster area. If you don't have enough money, just tell me."

"I see!"

After calling Ren Zhengfei and Han Hong, Cao Yu sat on the chair.

He had already planned these things before.

Now that the disaster has just occurred, we must do everything possible to rescue and reduce casualties.

As for more donations, they will only be needed for post-disaster reconstruction.

Originally, he wanted to take a group of people to the disaster area in person, but he felt that it would add chaos to the disaster relief.

"Husband, I didn't expect you to have a loving heart."

Seeing that her man had been busy non-stop since the earthquake, Li Xiaoshuang felt a little distressed.

Cao Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Level 7.8, not a small earthquake."

After sitting for a while, Cao Yu began to plan the second step.

"Brother Cheng Long, have you read the news?"

"See, what do you think?"

"I plan to advance the charity gala to be held at the end of this month to No. 18."

"no problem!"

After calling Cheng Long, Cao Yu called Su Mang and informed her of the advance of the charity gala and asked her to notify all the artists immediately.

Because of this unexpected incident, the crew took another vacation, and Cao Yu also returned to Yanjing overnight to prepare for the No. 18 charity gala.

Huayi.

Wang Zhongjun watched the news and said worriedly: "Pants, I didn't expect there was an earthquake. Do you want our movie "Tangshan Earthquake" to be released? If it is released, will you be scolded?"

"It shouldn't be a big problem, and this is the best gimmick to promote our film. Why not release it? Maybe it will be a big hit at the box office."

Although Feng Xiaogang had such worries, he thought it was not a big problem.

At this time, a question popped up in Wang Zhonglei's mouth: "Brother, do you think Lu Huateng originally suggested that we make a movie with this theme? Was it intentional?"

Wang Zhongjun laughed and said: "You are overthinking. Although Lu Huateng is very profitable, he is not a god. How could he know that there will be an earthquake this year?"

"makes sense."

At this time, Wang Zhonglei felt that he had indeed overthought it and said with a smile: "But I think what Pants said makes sense. The release of our movie at the end of this year is indeed a good gimmick. Maybe the box office will be really good."

"Fine!"

Although the film being filmed is named a disaster film, it is actually a family film. Wang Zhongjun thought for a while and finally nodded.

"By the way, brother, Su Mang called today and said that Feiyu had moved the original charity gala to No. 18 and called for donations for the disaster area. Let us take our artists to participate."

"This matter must go, you arrange it."

"Brother, how much will you donate then?"

"It will depend on other people's donations at that time, but two to three million should be about the same."

Wang Zhongjun thought about it and found that according to experience, if the entertainment industry can donate several million, it is already very caring.

Feng Xiaogang on the side heard that he was asking for a donation, scratched his head, and had an idea in his mind: "How about I paint a painting and it will be auctioned then, and it will be considered a donation from me."

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that he was simply too smart.
