Rebirth 96: Begin the life of a monster from kindergarten

Chapter 169 Tang Dynasty Cultural Street

In November, Zhang and his party received an invitation to watch a movie from the crew of Chen Kaige's "The Promise".

Zhang Yixing could not say that he had a good or bad impression of this director who was acclaimed for his role in "Farewell My Concubine" and received mixed reviews for a series of other films, but he knew that Chen Kaige was nicknamed "The City-Building Maniac".

In 1996, Chen Kaige built the Chedun Film and Television Base in the Magic City for the filming of the movie "Feng Yue", restoring the style of the Magic City and becoming a famous film and television base in China. Later "New Shanghai Beach" and "Love in the Rain" were filmed here.

In 1997, for the filming of "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin", Chen Kaige built dozens of Qin Palaces, large and small, imitating Xianyang Palace. "The Legend of Mi Yue" and "The Moon in the Qin Dynasty" were all shot here.

In addition, there is Zhao's Orphan City and the Tang City built for the filming of "The Legend of the Demon Cat".

Chen Kaige and his art team have unique aesthetic and artistic pursuits in ancient themes. In order to build the Tang Dynasty, Chen Kaige and his art team searched through ancient books, spent six years and spent 1.6 billion to recreate the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty. The city has become a famous tourist attraction. The admission fee alone costs one billion every year, and it also receives large and small film crews from all over the country.

In 10 years, 1.6 billion can build a city, and in 20 years or so, 1.6 billion can only build a few statues.

"The Promise" will be released in mid-December. Zhang and his party are not very interested in this movie that has caused crazy complaints and spoofs, but he is not lacking in interest in Chen Kaige, a city-building maniac.

Professional people do professional things.

So soon after receiving the invitation, Zhang and his party went to Quancheng to meet Zhang Guodong.

Since Zhang Guodong abandoned his wife and daughter, he has never returned to Zhangjiatang, and people in the village have mixed reviews of him.

I miss him because as a nouveau riche in the village, he was not stingy with the villagers who came to borrow money. He would lend them as much as they wanted. Even Zhang Yixing's family borrowed most of the money from him. And almost never press people to pay their debts.

Those who scolded him were naturally because he had an affair outside and abandoned his family for it.

According to Zhang Yixing's memories, he only met Zhang Xiaoyu twice later.

One time, Zhang Xiaoyu joined the army after graduating from high school, and he paid for it.

The other time was when Zhang Xiaoyu got married.

As for whether the two had other meetings and exchanges, Zhang and his party did not know.

"Brother, rare guest, rare guest!"

Zhang Guodong was stunned for a long time after learning the news that Zhang and his party came to visit.

He met a lot of people from the village who came to work in Quancheng and helped a lot, but Zhang and his party were indeed rare guests to him, and now they are even more distinguished guests.

He held Zhang Yi Xing's hand and shook it for a long time before he couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong? Something happened to her mother and father?"

Zhang Yixing frowned and replied: "No, it's fine!"

Seeing Zhang Yixing frowning, Zhang Guodong laughed and said with a smile: "I'm letting you see the joke!"

"It's not a joke, I remember the relationship between borrowing money!"

"Hey, it's just a trivial thing. Why do you remember that? Let's go home!"

Zhang Guodong is now a relatively successful builder. He has developed several real estate projects. His family also lives in a large villa. Before they walked through the door, Zhang and his party heard several dogs barking.

Zhang and his party were startled for a moment, then quickly walked a few steps and entered the door. They saw an old dog tied up with a chain, howling crazily.

"Kuroko!"

Zhang Yixing hurriedly walked forward, and the old black dog immediately calmed down, wagging its tail and constantly sticking out its tongue to lick Zhang Yixing's palm.

Zhang Guodong originally wanted to stop him, but he was worried that Heizi, who hadn't seen him in so many years, would bite Zhang and his party again, but when he saw the situation in front of him, he realized that he was overly worried.

Heizi seemed to be more affectionate to Zhang and his party than to himself. After looking at Zhang Yixin for several times in confusion, Zhang Guodong couldn't think of a reason. Maybe the black dog was nostalgic.

Seeing that Heizi did not attack Zhang and his party, Zhang Guodong opened the chain. Seeing that Zhang and his party were playing with the dogs in the yard, he directly made a pot of tea and brought it to the yard.

While pouring tea, Zhang Guodong asked: "Brother, what are you doing here this time?"

Zhang and his party are not going to beat around the bush, if they succeed, if they fail, they will find someone else.

As for saving Zhang Guodong, he was right.

According to the historical trajectory, after Zhang Guodong made a lot of money in real estate, he became interested in the Tibetan Mastiff industry, built a mastiff park, and spent huge sums of money to continuously breed mastiffs. As a result, the Tibetan Mastiff industry collapsed and all his property was lost.

In the end, only two villas remained.

Rather than losing money because of the Mastiff Park, it is better to invest in Yueshan as a tourist real estate.

Of course, Zhang Yixing would not directly ask Zhang Guodong to stop building Tangcheng, which would scare him to death.

After thinking about it, Zhang and his party came up with their own idea, which was to build a Tang Culture Pedestrian Street in Yueshan City.

Compared with large-scale ancient cities like Tangcheng, commercial streets have a shorter construction period and are the fastest way to achieve benefits.

"Tang Chao Pedestrian Street?" Zhang Guodong thought for a while and asked doubtfully: "It's a commercial street like Furong Street, right?"

"Yes!" Zhang Yixing nodded, "Building a commercial pedestrian street based on the ancient Tang Dynasty architectural style will not only meet the commercial needs of Yueshan, but also create a tourist business card and serve as an environmental carrier for the Hanfu Culture Festival!"

"I don't quite understand!" Zhang Guodong shook his head, looked at Zhang Yixing, and asked, "I'll just ask two questions!"

Zhang Yixing nodded, "You say it!"

"First, do you make money?"

"I can guarantee this, make money, especially the Hanfu Culture Festival..."

"Okay, needless to say, I don't know anything about the Hanfu Festival. Let me ask the second question, do you want to invest money?"

Seeing Zhang Guodong staring at him, Zhang Yixing knew that as long as he said he would not invest money, he would definitely not participate.

There is no way, it is human nature, this is the choice of a normal person.

Zhang Yixing nodded, "Invest, but not to invest money to participate in development and construction. Dreamweaver Culture can buy half a street of shops in advance when you establish the project!"

Zhang Guodong was stunned for a moment, this was worse than an off-plan house.

He thought about it for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay, I still take note of the business you are doing. It doesn't matter if you only need half a street of shops. As long as you decide on one-fifth of the shops, the rest will be covered." Just give it to me!"

Zhang Yixing smiled and agreed to the matter.

The Tang Dynasty Pedestrian Street is only the first step, but as long as this step is completed, the Hanfu Cultural Festival will have an environmental carrier.

With this Tang Dynasty commercial street, Zhang and his party can use this as a lead to see if they can bring Chen Kaige's future Tangcheng project to Yueshan.

It was the ancient city of the Tang Dynasty built in a 1:1 ratio, which highly restored the splendor and splendor of the Tang Dynasty. And because it was built for film service, it has more lens beauty than real ancient buildings.

Maybe in a few years, even if the Tangcheng project cannot be secured, Zhang Yihang will have to cancel this project for many costume dramas on Jinjiang Literature Network. But since he can get twice the result with half the effort, Zhang Yihang decided to try to contact Chen Kaige.

Just for this reason, he wants to watch "The Promise"!
A movie that will soon be ridiculed as "A Murder Case Caused by a Steamed Bun"!
