China Entertainment: I just want to give my child a home

Chapter 150 Zheng Yang? Don’t sign (please subscribe!)

These two days are the days for art exams in art colleges. Often at this time, some agents will go to the art exam site to try their luck and see if there are any good talents.

Yang Mi's agent Zeng Jia came to Nortel today, and she really got one.

"Hello girl, what is your name?"

"My name is Zheng Yan, who are you, sister?"

"Zheng Yan, what a good name, she has a beautiful voice and a sweet voice... Oh, by the way, I am a professional agent of Dongcheng Pictures. My name is Zeng Jia. This is my business card."

"Is it the Dongcheng Film Company directed by Chen Dong?"

"Yes Yes."

"Wow, my sister is so amazing."

Zeng Jia really felt that she had found a treasure today.

But she doesn't have the authority to sign artists, otherwise she would want to sign this girl named Zheng Yan to her name now.

Today, at Nortel's art exam site, the one who received the most favors from agents was Zheng Yan.

But to say that the person who has attracted the most attention and talked about the most is undoubtedly Jingtian.

However, Jingtian has his own agency, so no agent comes to ask for trouble.

……

After Chen Dong accompanied Ms. Liu to see the wedding room, he accompanied her to the hospital for a pregnancy test. It was already three days before he returned to the company.

As soon as he came back, Lu Yang handed him the list of character actors for "Xiu Chun Dao 2".

"Shouldn't I just let you decide on your own?"

"I'm afraid that I won't think carefully, so I'd better ask Director Chen to check it."

Chen Dong didn't believe a word of this flattery, but he still took a look at the list.

Zhu Yawen plays Shen Lian.

Ok? !

Chen Dong withdrew his gaze from the list and looked at Lu Yang again, without speaking, staring at him quietly.

Want to see if he feels guilty.

Lu Yang adjusted his glasses and said coquettishly: "Director Chen, I guarantee with my personality that Shen Lian's choice of Zhu Yawen has nothing to do with him being your classmate. It's just because he is more suitable for this role."

"Is that what I meant?"

Chen Dongjian confused Lu Yang, so he stopped worrying about this issue.

His eyes continued back to the list.

Look down.

Yang Mi plays Hokusai.

Zhang Yi plays Lu Wenzhao.

Lei Jiayin plays Pei Lun.

Shu Chang plays Ding Baiying.

Jin Shijie plays Wei Zhongxian.

……

After reading it, Chen Dong returned the list to Lu Yang.

"sure, no problem."

Just after sending Lu Yang away, Zhong Lifang came to Chen Dong's office again.

"Zeng Jiaxiang has chosen a newcomer from Nortel this year. She also found out that this newcomer's art test scores are among the best. Now as long as her college entrance examination cultural essay is not too high, she will almost certainly be admitted by Nortel..."

When Zhong Lifang introduced each other to him, Chen Dong picked up the girl's information and took a look.

With just one glance, he interrupted Zhong Lifang's eloquence.

"Don't sign."

When Zhong Lifang handed these two words to Zeng Jia intact, the latter was confused.

"Manager Zhong, this girl has a very good image. Why doesn't the company sign her?"

"Go and ask Director Chen."

After receiving this answer, Zeng Jia was certainly not convinced.

But she didn't have the courage to ask Chen Dong.

I can only sigh in my heart for missing such a good idea.

The official website of Dongcheng Pictures announced the audition results of "Xiu Chun Dao 2".

Xin Zilei looked at just a dozen names several times and was finally sure that she had failed.

Although she had expected it on the day she left, at least she still had a glimmer of fantasy at that time, but now even her fantasy has been shattered.

The Bad Monkey who bought Chen Dong's stake in Ning Hao was not Dongcheng Pictures, but his Dongfeng Angel Investment Company. Because neither party made any publicity and kept a low profile, even people in the industry didn't know about it, so it was naturally not exposed by the media on the Internet.

But some things cannot be hidden, such as the news that Ning Hao's new movie has been submitted for review.

"I heard that you wrote Ning Hao's notebook for him?"

As soon as Chen Dong came to China Film and Television, and before he could take a sip of the hot tea in his hand, Han Shanping asked about the book "People on the Road".

"Ang, yes, it's called "A Man on the Road", and it's a low-budget comedy."

He deliberately emphasized the word "low cost" to remind Mr. San not to make this movie.

Sure enough, when Han Shanping heard what Chen Dong said, he really lost interest.

This time Chen Dong came here to choose a better release date for "Hachi".

Han Shanping also knew the purpose of his visit, so he asked his secretary to bring him the film schedule and handed it to Chen Dong.

"Take your pick."

"Then I'm not welcome."

Chen Dong put down his teacup, picked up the film schedule and started looking through it.

There are 13 movies released in April, such as "Dragon Knight", "Mingming", "Female Police Officer", "Red Beauty"...

There are no blockbusters.

There are only eight movies released in May, but there's Spider-Man 3 .

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End follows in June.

Chen Dong didn't want to put "Hachi" into the second half of the year, so he stopped looking at the film schedule after June.

When Han Shanping saw him put down his film schedule, he asked: "Which date is in the photo?"

"Just next month, after all, there are no blockbusters."

Han Shanping seemed not surprised by Chen Dong's choice, "There will be the Hong Kong Film Awards in April. Your film has been shortlisted for seven nominations. It is indeed a wise move to schedule it for release next month."

Then, Han Shanping paid attention to the box office.

Chen Dong smiled and shook his head: "It's really hard to say. After all, the box office of literary and artistic films has never been high."

"But I plan to try to release it in multiple countries and regions in Asia at the same time. I think there is no pressure to recover the cost."

"Haha, why don't young people be bolder... By the way, what about the European and American markets?"

"Sell the copyright."

……

"What is Director Chen planning to make in his next movie? Do you want a whole blockbuster?"

"Ahem, Director Han, I probably won't be able to make a blockbuster movie, but I do have some ideas for episodic films."

Han Shanping was stunned.

"You, a big commercial director, will make a feature film next time?"

Too depraved?
  Chen Dong reminded:
  "Director Han, I'm getting married soon! Can't you make some scene movies as a souvenir?"

"Oh, oh oh oh, yes, yes, yes, yes, I didn't turn the corner for a while."

Han Shanping added: "I remember that you and Yifei got married on Mother's Day, right? When will the invitations be sent out?"

"next month……"

"Don't forget my share, otherwise I'd be shameless enough to ask for a glass of your wedding wine."

"Haha, I will definitely never forget it."

……

The specific release date of "Hachiko" is April 4th.

This day is also the closing ceremony of the Hong Kong Film Awards, and all major awards will be announced that night.

……

Previously, Chen Dong asked Zhong Lifang to acquire the copyrights of two online novels, "Special Warfare Pioneer" and "Latent", and planned to adapt them into TV series.

"Special Warfare Pioneer" is the original novel of "Snow Leopard". It is relatively long and is not difficult to adapt.

"Latent" is too short, with just over 10,000 words. If you want to rely on the screenwriting team to restore it into a TV series, the filmed version will definitely be different from what Chen Dong remembers.

So this job can only be done by himself.

But how can he have the energy to write a script now... So if nothing else happens, "Snow Leopard" will be the first TV series produced by Dongcheng Pictures.

Of course, the screenwriting team is still working on it now.

Lu Yang moved very quickly. He was still auditioning actors in mid-March, and at the end of the month, the launch conference of "Xiu Chun Dao 2" was held at Hengdian Film and Television City.

As the producer of this film, Chen Dong is in name only, but it is still his company's film, so he still came to take a stand.
