China Entertainment’s Born Protagonist

Chapter 138 God Is Fair
Zhang Nanyi didn't do everything, and he didn't have the ability. Instead, he asked first: "Didn't you just finish filming your movie? The edited film hasn't even been released yet. It hasn't been submitted for review, so why is it stuck in the review?"

Liu Daqing stopped talking. He didn't know anything specific about the movie.

Director Peng Xiaolian explained: "Our film is preparing to submit for the Golden Rooster Award. Someone has pointed out that some things from that era will not pass the review."

Peng Xiaolian did not say who specifically gave the guidance.

However, Beautiful Shang Hai is indeed a standard film that competes for awards. The target is probably the Golden Rooster Award. The life of a small person, reflections on a specific era, and "Xie Jin" style shooting methods are all very popular with the Golden Rooster Award judges.

But the judges are judges, and the review is review. Beautiful Shanghai won the Golden Rooster Award for next year’s Best Feature Film, and Peng Xiaolian won the Best Director. However, the film was still subject to review and was not released until September 05. In other words, the film needed to delete some scenes. can be released.

Zhang Nanyi said: "People in the industry have some misunderstandings about me. My company has only been established for more than a year, so it doesn't matter. To be honest with you, my company's first movie Love has an afterlife, and it has still been reviewed and approved." It’s stuck and has never been given.”

After Love Has an Afterlife was changed by Zhang Nanyi, it talks about reincarnation and destiny, and the concept of ghosts is not so direct, but monks are still ghosts after all, so it is normal for the review to be stuck.

Even if it is related to Feihong, it is impossible to pass the review casually. Repeated deletions and public relations are also indispensable.

Zhang Nanyi gave the example of "Love has an afterlife", which is also true. My own movies are stuck, so I can't help you.

Xu Feng heard Zhang Nanyi's words and said calmly: "Mr. Zhang, as long as you are willing to help, I still have some connections in Bay Island. I can help with public relations for your movies and the Golden Horse Awards. If you His acting skills are not too bad, and he is not a bad actor either."

Zhang Nanyi laughed and said: "I am very moved by Mr. Xu's proposal, but it's a pity that I don't have the ability. If I had the ability, I would definitely want this actor."

Zhang Nanyi is relatively indifferent to awards. For Best Actor, Best Actor, etc., if you have one, you can take it. If you don't have it, it doesn't matter. What's more, there is a question mark as to whether Xu Feng has the energy for him to win the award.

I want Zhang Nanyi to help me write a bad check here. Of course Zhang Nanyi won't do it, and he has never seen the movie Beautiful Shang Hai. But when it comes to that era, in the so-called literary and artistic circles, except for directors like Jiang Wen, Most of it is reflection and criticism.

This is not in line with Zhang Nan's personal taste. There were indeed some problems in that era, but its specific background and significance were stigmatized by certain groups.

Zhang Nanyi took a sip of tea and continued: "As far as I know, the official review is still very open-minded. If anything does not meet the standards, it will be deleted and corrected as required.

Our company's love has an afterlife, which has been changed to the third edition. "

Peng Xiaolian was a little disappointed when she heard Zhang Nanyi's words. She shook her head: "Some things cannot be deleted, otherwise the movie will lose its soul and spirit. What I want to express will be gone, and the movie will be meaningless."

Zhang Nan smiled and said: "I am an actor and a boss. I don't understand too many artistic insistences. In my opinion, movies are both an art of compromise and a commodity for the public. There is nothing that cannot be changed."

Of course, I also admire Director Peng’s persistence. "

Zhang Nanyi made it very clear. My own company's films must be deleted or modified if they want to pass the censorship. Your films must not be modified. If they fail to pass the censorship, that's your problem.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Liu Daqing changed the subject: "Let's not talk about the review for now. I should just write a song."

Zhang Nanyi said with a smile: "I can certainly write songs, but my songs are all in pop style and don't match the era of the movie. If you really need it, I can introduce you to my good friend and famous musician Teacher Sanbao." , Hidden Fragrance was written by him.

Let him compose the music for your film, and the style will be more suitable. "

Zhang Nanyi is telling the truth. He is a copycat. For such a distinctive feature film, of course he cannot write tailor-made songs.

Liu Daqing said: "Popular is good, it just needs to be popular. The main function of the theme song is to promote it, and it does not necessarily have to match the plot."

At this time, Liu Daqing already regretted investing in this movie. It was a feature film that had no idea when it would be released. The investment amount was 1000 million, not including publicity and distribution expenses. Loss seemed destined.

When Liu Daqing saw Wang Zuxian's name, he was excited and invested. If the movie suffered a loss, it would be better if he could have an in-depth communication with Wang Zuxian.

But Wang Zuxian was polite and distant to him, so there was no way he could succeed.

Liu Daqing felt like he was losing blood.

At this time, he also recalled that although Tangcheng Group was trapped by investment in Pudong in the past few years, with the rise and popularity of the real estate market in the past two years, the group has gradually recovered.

Xu Feng approached Liu Daqing for investment at that time. The reason he gave was that all the funds of Tangcheng Group were invested in the development of Tangchen Yipin and they had no money.

In fact, it was because he felt that the movie was likely to suffer losses, and Xu Feng didn't want to invest in it himself, so he asked Liu Daqing to take advantage of it.

Liu Daqing was not particularly angry. Investment is a matter of mutual consent, with both losses and gains.

Just because he wanted to reduce losses, he began to actively exercise his rights as an investor and asked Zhang Nanyi to invite him to sing, regardless of whether it was a good fit or not.At least the movie is a bit popular and the box office is better, so it won’t lose too much.

Zhang Nanyi thought for a while and said: "I am going to produce a new album in November. There is a song called Dacheng Xiaoai. The name may have something to do with the movie."

The songs for Zhang Nanyi's own album were already sent to Sanbao when he was on the set of Shuiyuedongtian. When he returns to Yanjing this time, he will start recording the album.

Anyway, the song "Dacheng Xiaoai" is going to be released, and Liu Daqing wants to use it as a movie theme song. It's just a normal business, just use money to buy the license.

Liu Daqing felt that Zhang Nanyi had betrayed him and put a smile on his face.

After the wine and food were served, it was a social scene of drinking and drinking. Feng Yuanzheng looked scary, but in fact he was a nice person and drank freely. Xu Feng was a frequent visitor to the wine table and was well-rounded.

Not to mention Zhang Nanyi and Liu Daqing, they are both top players in the atmosphere team. Although the review matter was not settled, the atmosphere at the wine table was not bad.

It is worth mentioning that Wang Zuxian acted very close to Zhang Nanyi, drinking and joking, and the two became familiar with each other very quickly.

Zhang Nanyi knew the reason. He was being treated as a tool. Liu Daqing didn't give up yet and attacked Wang Zuxian again at the wine table.

At this time, Wang Zuxian already had the idea of ​​​​retiring from the industry. The beautiful Shang Hai was her last work, so how could she still have the time to deal with Liu Daqing.

She looked around and felt that Liu Daqing was very polite to Zhang Nanyi and might be wary of Zhang Nanyi, so she deliberately acted like she was very affectionate with Zhang Nanyi.

Liu Daqing obviously also misunderstood, mainly because Zhang Nanyi was so handsome. Liu Daqing thought Wang Zuxian was a pretty sister and was really interested in Zhang Nanyi.

After seeing Wang Zuxian's actions, he gave up decisively. Not only did he give up, but in the next words, he started to assist Zhang Nanyi.

It can only be said that Liu Daqing is still very generous. He even wanted to change seats with Zhang Nanyi and let Zhang Nanyi sit next to Wang Zuxian, but Zhang Nanyi refused.

Zhang Nanyi refused to change positions, but did not refuse to interact with Wang Zuxian, which could be regarded as indirectly helping Wang Zuxian.

Wang Zuxian also saw Zhang Nanyi's kindness, so after the dinner, while Liu Daqing was sending Xu Feng out, she took the initiative to exchange contact information with Zhang Nanyi and said thank you several times.

Zhang Nanyi smiled and said: "Don't limit your gratitude to words, come to something practical, such as treating me to a meal or something."

Wang Zuxian had never experienced anything before, so she responded generously: "It's okay to eat, but why do I feel like I just stepped out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth again?"

Zhang Nanyi smiled heartily, "Your feeling is correct. God is fair. While he gave you a beautiful appearance, he also made you endure the harassment of tigers and wolves.

I feel this very deeply myself. Today I encountered the warm hospitality of Tiger and Wolf at the wine table. "

Wang Zuxian smiled happily: "Are you saying that I am a tiger and a wolf, harassing you?"

Zhang Nanyi nodded: "Isn't it? You are very enthusiastic and proactive today. I understand. Women are like wolves at thirty and tigers at forty."

Wang Zuxian also drank some wine and was in a high mood. When Zhang Nanyi described herself as a tiger or a wolf, she was not angry. Instead, she found it very interesting, so she laughed wildly.

When Liu Daqing came back from seeing Xu Feng off, he saw Wang Zuxian and Zhang Nanyi fighting fiercely. He couldn't help but admire Zhang Nanyi's methods. He chased for a long time without success, but Zhang Nanyi settled it after just one meeting.

"Brother Zhang, I'm going to leave first. I won't interrupt your Spring Festival Eve. Let's meet again in Yanjing!"

"Okay Mr. Liu, bye!"

After Liu Daqing left, Zhang Nanyi said: "Okay, the investors are gone, quickly switch forms, temporarily put away the tiger and wolf form, and switch to the cold goddess."

Wang Zuxian chuckled, but she really cooperated with Zhang Nanyi and began to suppress her smile. Her face was expressionless, and the cold feeling came immediately.

Zhang Nanyi was ready to withdraw. He bought a flight ticket for early tomorrow morning and returned to the hotel to rest early today.

Last night I accompanied Zhao Min and Zhou Zhiruo in the relay race, but I didn't fall asleep with Sister Xiaoli. I have to make up for it tonight.

Unexpectedly, Wang Zuxian said: "You are quite interesting. Do you want to go have some fun with your sister?"
