Actor: My Entertainment Era

After Liu Yifei finished planting trees at home, she got busy again.

"Wang Xiaofang Born in 82" has not yet found a suitable director.

I met a few famous people in the industry, but they either have projects they are working on, or they only work on their own projects and don't take on external roles at all.

Liu Yifei would like to find Xue Xiaolu again, but Xue Xiaolu will be filming "Northwest 2" later, and she has other work after that, so it is not convenient to film again.

On this day, Chen Zhixi made an appointment with her, saying that she was going to meet a director.

"Director Ning mainly focuses on literary and artistic films, and has also made several commercial films in the past few years." Chen Zhixi introduced to her, "I returned to China a few days ago, so I quickly made an appointment with her, otherwise she will leave again in a few days."

The director Chen Zhixi wants to meet is called Ning Ying, the fifth generation.

A female director with extremely high upper and lower limits. The upper limit is that she made films such as "Have Fun" and "Police Story" before she was 30 years old; the lower limit is that she also has such bad films as "A Side B" and "Kung Fu Man". piece.

However, Ning Ying's reputation in the circle is pretty good.

Chen Zhixi and Liu Yifei talked with Ning Ying for more than two hours, left the script and left.

It’s fine if there are no blockbusters during the Qingming Festival, but it’s unreasonable to not have any blockbusters during the May Day period.

But this year's situation is quite special. Before May Day, "Fast 7" was released. Although no one expected that "Fast 7" would explode like this, as an old IP, many people are still wary of its basic ability to attract money.

On the 12th after May Day, the much-anticipated "Chappie" will be released, and "Avengers 2" will be released on the th.

Under the attack of Hollywood blockbusters, no domestic blockbusters are willing to stay in the May 1st stall.

But the demand for viewing movies during the May Day holiday is here again. At least during the May Day holiday, the growth of "Fast 7" has slowed down, giving way to the film schedule, and no new blockbusters have entered the market. This gives the opportunity.

"The Left Ear" sold 5500 million at the box office on its first day, ranking second that day - the champion was still "Fast 7", which took 5800 million.

The three-day box office on the first weekend was 1.98 million.

This result is very exaggerated. Youth movies these days really don’t make sense.

"Left Ear" is probably the first work of Chen Dulin and Ma Chun to be remembered.

But Ma Chun's subsequent treatment was obviously higher than that of Chen Dulin, whose aunt was Jiang Wenli and her uncle was Gu Changwei.

After the first weekend of "Left Ear", Jiang Wenli directly brought her to meet Zhang Yuanjun. Do other actors have this opportunity?

"Hello, Teacher Zhang." Ma Chun was not timid at all when facing strangers and greeted Zhang Yuanjun generously.

"Don't call me teacher," Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile, "I'm not much older than you, are you?"

"I'm 88 years old."

"I'm only 3 years older than you, so I'm of the same age." Zhang Yuanjun smiled.

"People of the same age have more topics to talk about." Jiang Wenli said with a smile.

"The Invisible Guest" had rejected her, and Zhang Yuanjun now wanted Gu Changwei to take over "Redemption". Jiang Wenli didn't take this kind of thing to heart, and no one would be so petty.

But Zhang Yuanjun had to talk to people in a nice voice.

Jiang Wenli joked with Zhang Yuanjun: "If you hadn't fallen in love and got married too early, I would have married you."

Zhang Yuanjun, a married man, was thick-skinned and said with a smile: "It's a pity that I missed it."

Everyone knew it was a joke, and Ma Chun also laughed.

Ma Chun said that Zhang Yuanjun is her idol: "I really like the plays you perform, and I even went to your premiere." Jiang Wenli's meaning is very obvious, she wants Zhang Yuanjun to take care of her little niece: "The roles are no matter how big or small, you can just audition , you can just swipe her if she doesn’t pass.”

Zhang Yuanjun did not refuse immediately. Ma Chun had a good image and his acting skills were excellent among the younger generation. If there was a suitable role, he was actually willing to sell Jiang Wenli a favor.

Zhang Yuanjun joked: "Is it okay to play a mother?"

Ma Chun readily replied: "Okay, I'm 27 and can play the role of a young mother."

Zhang Yuanjun smiled and said: "Then you have a wide range of acting options. You can act in youth movies, and your mother can act in them, but I can't act in youth movies."

Jiang Wenli added: "You can't play a mother either."

"Hahahaha!" Zhang Yuanjun laughed.

Zhang Yuanjun sat for a while, said a few words, and then left.

In fact, Zhang Yuanjun has a role for Ma Chun, but that's not how things work. He can't give it to Jiang Wenli as soon as she asks.

Jiang Wenli didn't expect everyone to sit down and get things done. Today was mainly about getting to know each other.

Besides, isn't there Gu Changwei here? Zhang Yuanjun asked Gu Changwei for help. When the time comes, he can help take care of his niece. It will be a matter of course.

After the "Redemption" script was given to Gu Changwei, Zhang Yuanjun also sent a professional production team to work with him.

Gu Changwei can ask for whatever conditions he needs, whether he wants a salary or anything else.

If you have any comments on the script or how you want to change it, feel free to mention it.

But Gu Changwei doesn't have high requirements in these aspects. He doesn't hide his love for the script of "Redemption", but he just hasn't replied to the production team.

However, not long after, Huayi found out about it.

Gu Changwei has a contract with Huayi, otherwise the first commercial film would not be produced by Huayi.

Although Huayi is "de-simplifying movies," it has never given up on movies and releases movies every year.

After learning that Zhang Yuanjun had sent the film to Gu Changwei, Wang Zhonglei immediately asked Gu Changwei for the script.

After all, Wang Zhonglei knows what's good. After reading the script, he was curious about why Gu Changwei didn't agree to Zhang Yuanjun.

"This book is very good. Although the mood is very low, it is very profound. There is no pressure for Zhang Yuanjun to play such a character." Now it is Wang Zhonglei who persuades Gu Changwei to film.

Zhang Yuanjun hasn’t collaborated with Huayi on a book for a long time.

Huayi also wanted to participate in "The Invisible Guest", but the cost of this movie was too small, so the investment was divided among three or five producers. Moreover, Zhang Yuanjun + Gong Li + Ni Ni were obviously profitable projects, but few people Willing to transfer shares.

The artistic films starring Zhang Yuanjun are very popular in the international market, and Huayi is very willing to promote this cooperation.

Huayi announces its film list for the coming year at the end of every year. If Zhang Yuanjun's film can be added this year, it will definitely add gold content to its film list.

Let the outside world shut up those who doubt that Huayi does not make movies. How can we invest in Zhang Yuanjun’s artistic films if we don’t make movies?
Of course, although Gu Changwei had a filming agreement with Huayi, Wang Zhonglei couldn't force Gu Changwei to nod.

There was a slight stalemate on Gu Changwei's side, so Huayi turned the car around and contacted Zhang Yuanjun first.

Only then did Zhang Yuanjun find out that Gu Changwei had an agreement with Huayi.

Zhang Yuanjun doesn't mind cooperating with Huayi. Huayi is now at its peak and is still the richest film company in the country. Its market value is very high, and the value of his stocks has also increased a lot.

With Huayi joining in the lobbying, Gu Changwei should take over "Redemption". Zhang Yuanjun also agreed. Only after Gu Changwei took over, he would accept Huayi's investment.

Huayi's producer smiled and agreed. (End of chapter)
