Just when Xie Xiaoke was holding the contract document and preparing to leave.

Outside the door walked a man in his mid-middle years, this person had a fierce face, a poker face, and wore a set of expensive suits, very large, and walked with the wind.

There was also a fat man with a big back and glasses beside him.

Xie Xiaoke stopped at that time, the two sides looked at each other and smiled, and the front desk lady inside said with a smile: "Boss, this is Mr. Xie Xiaoke in the peak era, he just bought the film and television copyright of the Heaven and Dragon Slayer that we have placed for a long time!"

The boss in the mouth of the front desk lady is this man in a suit, named Xiang Huaqiang, and the fat man is the famous Hong Kong director Wang Jing, who has a good relationship with him.

Xie Xiao was a little excited when he saw them, these two people had a strong sense of age, and they were often seen in movies at that time, especially Long Wu in Stephen Chow's gambler, which was simply synonymous with ruthlessness, but I didn't expect to be able to see him in reality.

took out the Yellow Crane Tower in his pocket and handed one over, and said politely: "Boss Xiang, hello!"

Xiang Huaqiang is not as terrifying as in the movie, nor is it as people imagine, the blackboard boss is grumpy and has no one in his eyes, and he is very kind to Xie Xiaoke to hand over the cigarettes.

Xie Xiaoke also handed Wang Jing a cigarette, then nodded and said, "Director Wang, I have admired my name for a long time!"

Wang Jing also followed, and then asked incredulously: "You're welcome, you are Xie Xiaoke, the boss of Shencheng's peak era?"

"Exactly. ”

At this moment, the distance between the two sides seemed to have shrunk by 300% all of a sudden, Wang Jing looked Xie Xiaoke up and down in surprise, he had studied movies for so many years, and every time there was a new popular film, he would observe it, and naturally he had heard of Xie Xiaoke, but he didn't expect that Xie Xiaoke, who made the first domestic fantasy drama, was just a young man in his 20s, lit a cigarette and smiled with interest: "Sure enough, it's the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, not bad!"

"I have won awards, Director Wang is also a great director, and everyone can see it!" Xie Xiaoke praised a few words by the way.

"I don't know if Boss Xie is going to flop when he buys Heaven and Dragon Slayer, or?" Xiang Huaqiang asked.

"That's right, but I'm planning to continue the filming, that is, to follow the plot of Jet Li's version 29 years ago!"

Wang Jing and Xiang Huaqiang looked at each other and felt very incredible.

Back then, the Legend of Heaven and Dragon was co-directed by Wang Jing and Sammo Hung, and Xiang Huaqiang served as the producer, and the classic martial arts film was made, and now I saw them here, Xie Xiaoke instantly had a bold idea, and asked: "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Slayer can be said to be our classic memory, so I want to find Director Wang to be the director of our new "Heaven and Dragon Slayer 2", I don't know what Director Wang wants?"

In fact, Wang Jing, as a particularly famous director in Hong Kong, has a high reputation in Hong Kong, although many people have mixed reviews of his works, but this does not affect the classic memories he brings to people.

Wang Jing has a lot of movies, "The Gambler", "The Legend of the Deer and Ding", "Jiupin Sesame Official", "Jade Futon", including the previous "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" are the works he directed, it can be said that except for a few recent bad movies, each of the others is a classic memory of a generation.

When Wang Jing heard Xie Xiaoke's words, she instantly hesitated, after all, in the era of such a strong commercial atmosphere, there is no value in making this movie, and he gave up the idea of making a sequel because he couldn't make money, but some people say that Wang Jing is not to blame for the dismal box office of Heaven and Dragon Slayer, but to blame Jet Li.

In 1993, Jet Li made a total of 5 movies: "Huang Feihong: Iron Fighting Centipede", "Kung Fu Emperor Fang Shiyu", "Fang Shiyu Sequel", "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" and "Heaven and Dragon Slayer: The Demon Sect Leader", the audience has long been aesthetically fatigued.

In addition, in 1993, Stephen Chow's "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", "Truant Weilong", Jackie Chan's "City Hunter" and "Serious Crime Team", Leslie Cheung's "Happy Affair in the Flower Field", and Aaron Kwok's "Laughing Man Chu Liuxiang" were also released......

There are also "Seven Princesses of Martial Arts", "East Becomes West" and "Super School Overlord......

So many movies were released in the same year, Hong Kong is such a big place, and the box office is even less than a point, so the dismal box office does not mean that this movie has no commercial value, but it was just born at the wrong time, and there were many similar situations in Hong Kong back then, so Wang Jing thinks that it is a good idea to make a sequel to "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" now.

asked a small question on the spot: "I don't know how Boss Xie plans to make this movie?"

"If Director Wang is to direct, everything will be arranged by you, and the funds will depend on the needs of the crew, and it will be filmed in accordance with the style of the martial arts drama of the old Hong Kong film, because this movie was made by you back then, I think no one can understand the style here better than Director Wang!"

Xiang Huaqiang looked at Wang Jing, nodded and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Very good, you can shoot another one!"

"Let's go in and talk!" Wang Jing became interested, feeling that a few people were standing outside and chatting, without a sense of ceremony.

"Okay!"

Several people walked into Xiang Huaqiang's office and chatted in detail about the film production plan, Xie Xiaoke also promised Wang Jing that the salary he would be given was 5 million guaranteed, no matter how the box office was after the movie was released, this was the most basic guarantee, and then he would be given a 5% dividend depending on the box office profit.

Wang Jing was very satisfied and gladly accepted the project: "Okay, then I'll be ugly!"

"Happy working together!"

Xie Xiaoke didn't expect that there would be such a play in Hong Kong this time, it is definitely better to let the same director shoot than to change people, although Wang Jing is now old, but he doesn't want him to do those martial arts actions by himself, it's no problem to be a director.

After coming out of Yongsheng Film Company, Xie Xiaoke said lightly: "Give Gong Qiu Wei a call, and the director will use Wang Jing!"

"Okay!" Liu Shuang then took out his mobile phone to broadcast a call and went out, explaining the situation to Gong Qiu Wei.

In a flash, it was evening, and Victoria Harbor was at its most gorgeous, Xie Xiaoke and the three of them took a taxi directly to find a restaurant over there, ordered a few dishes, a bottle of red wine, and watched the night view while drinking together.

After dinner, I went to Causeway Bay for a walk in the evening, and then found a hotel to stay in.

From the mainland to Hong Kong can stay for up to 7 days at a time, if you go back too early, it is really a bit of a waste, not to mention that you must stay for 7 days, at least you have to play for 3 to 4 days and then go back, so in the next few days they visited Ocean Park, Mong Kok, Disneyland, Victoria Peak and other places, put aside all distractions, and completely played for 4 days with the mentality of letting go of themselves, and only went back on the 5th.

And during this time, Gong Qiu Wei also lived up to expectations and completed the formation of the new crew members of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer 2", except for the director Xie Xiaoke, who met Wang Jing with his blind cat, the others were all Gong Qiu Wei and her assistants running around, with blood, sweat and tears plus indomitable spirit.

On the morning of November 8th.

There was a commotion in the office of the peak era, and Gong Qiu Wei drove here, ready to complete the formal handover with Xie Xiaoke, but found that everyone's computers were looking at the pictures of the Mu Shenji 2 crew.

"What are you looking at? No more work?"

"Mr. Wei, look, it's the crew of Mu Shenji 2 that has been completed, the picture sent by Zhou Dongyu!" shouted Mo Nan.

Gong Qiu Wei looked at the computer screen and found that all of them were photos of the crew, many of which she secretly took during the filming process, and some of them were group photos of her and others and group photos.

The actors are still wearing costumes in the play, their facial expressions are strange, their faces are tired, and they have everything they need to smile, which shows that everyone has also suffered a lot during the filming process, and there is an indescribable feeling in their hearts, just like the joy of Tang Seng learning scriptures from the west and finally arriving at Leiyin Temple.

The behind-the-scenes operators in the office, as well as the makeup artists and martial arts instructors of the crew, are full of expectations for this movie, after all, the box office success of "Mujin Ji 1" fully proves that everyone's efforts are worth it, and now it's time to watch the post-production, if there are no big problems, then those who have watched the first part will definitely chase the second part as always.

Gong Qiu Wei also unconsciously followed along, and kept praising them for being beautiful without makeup.

"That's pretty much it, let's get to work!"

"Got it, Mr. Wei!"

Gong Qiu Wei turned around and went to her office, took the crew's information, and went downstairs to the conference room on the first floor, and at this moment, Xie Xiaoke had just arrived at the conference room.

Xie Xiaoke couldn't wait to see how the crew formed by Gong Qiu Wei this time, so he hurriedly took the documents in Gong Qiu Wei's hand and said, "Sit down!"

"Okay, Mr. Xie, take a look first!"

"Hmm!"

Gong Qiu Wei went to pour a glass of boiling water for Xie Xiaoke, and then sat next to her and waited, but she hadn't drunk a sip of water, and the document had already been read.

Hearing Xie Xiaoke hum and put the file down, Gong Qiu Wei was stunned, she felt that Xie Xiaoke didn't read it at all and was fooling her.

"Mr. Xie, have you finished reading?"

"I'm done!"

In addition to Zhang Wuji played by Shi Xiaolong and Xiao Zhao played by Ji Wenjun, the other roles are also arranged quite reasonably, Zhao Min belongs to the brutal and willful character, it is very suitable for Wu Qian to play, Song Qingshu is played by Zhang Yishan, which is also very reasonable, it is Wang Jing himself who plays Zhang Sanfeng, according to the arrangement in the play, Zhang Sanfeng is 100 years old, so Sammo Hung was actually too young when he played Zhang Sanfeng, and now the 67-year-old Wang Jing is just right, and he happens to be a fat man, which perfectly restores the atmosphere of 93 years.

The plot has also been readjusted.,30 Years ago, the audience's thinking was completely different from now.,At that time, the protagonist was kind-hearted and there was nothing wrong with it.,But now the audience is different.,As long as the protagonist draws the sword and moves 0.01 seconds slowly, he will be scolded immediately.,If the plot is not adjusted,,It is estimated that nine times out of ten it is to hit the street。

Xie Xiaoke felt that he couldn't find anything wrong, so that's it, and said, "This arrangement is okay, so let's do it!"

Gong Qiu Wei nodded and continued: "Okay, by the way, there is one more thing, recently Zhang Yisan also has the intention of signing a contract to the peak era, the last time I went to him to cooperate, he asked me to ask what you mean?"

"Is there such a thing?"

Xie Xiaoke was shocked, Zhang Yisan's acting skills were online in his opinion, and it was a great pleasure to be able to sign a contract to the peak era, he asked curiously: "Which company is he signing with now?"

"At present, he should not have signed a contract with any entertainment company, he has his own agent studio! This time, I heard that we were looking for him to film again, so we talked about signing a contract, Zhang Yisan said that what he wanted to sign most was our peak era!"

"Okay, you can ask him to come over next time and sign a contract directly, 10 million a year, sign for 3 years first!"

Xie Xiaoke doesn't want to spend too much time on things like signing artists, and now he is a little famous in the peak era, and he is not so happy that one or two celebrities come to sign a contract and can't find the southeast, northwest, and northwest.

For a long time, Xie Xiaoke never encouraged the staff of his company to go outside to poach people, and the few people who signed the contract in front of him were also talked to others by himself, among which Hu Mo, Wu Qian, and Zhou Dongyu still took the initiative to find the door, which shows that there is no shortage of people in the peak era, and if it develops slowly, sooner or later it will attract all the powerful actors in the entertainment industry.

Anyone who takes the initiative to go out to sell, others are very disgusted, what sells milkshakes, tea, insurance, are very few people will be interested, the vast majority of people are disgusted by the marketing model, because they are too active, advertising is too annoying.

How can a more tasteful and forceful merchant advertise everywhere and sell everywhere.

Saving the time and energy of running around for business sales, putting more effort into developing new films, and improving the quality is the king, people in the peak era will not be idle because they don't need to sell, and they have even more things to do than other entertainment companies outside.

Even the company's top person in charge, Gong Qiuwei, is also very hard-working, she is so busy during this time that she can't breathe, after the completion of Mu Shen Ji 2, she has to immediately contact the team that made the post-production special effects of Mu Shen Ji 1, and start to speed up the production process, fantasy films are much longer than martial arts films, romance films, if you don't work overtime, the audience can't wait, in addition, she is also responsible for arranging "Heaven and Dragon Slayer 2" At the same time, we also want to help Chen Qiongle and Chen Xiang to form the organizational structure of the hilarious Jianghu company.

It took 1 week before and after Gong Qiu Wei solved all these things, and she fell asleep tired on the desk in the office alone.

After the press conference of Heaven and Dragon Slayer was announced on the Internet, it caused a lot of heated discussions.

Xie Xiaoke, who was looking at these comments in front of the computer, was a little shocked in his heart, and the voices for and against were basically half of them.

"I've been waiting for a sequel to this movie for 29 years, and it's finally going to be made, no matter what, as long as it's not too bad, I'll support it!"

"The peak era is the most personalized film company I have ever seen, specializing in making movies that others want to see and no one wants to make, and I will always support it!"

"Although I really want to watch it, I also want to say that the box office of this movie will definitely be bleak, after all, the post-90s and post-00s only know Cai Xukun, and they don't know what Heaven and Dragon Slayer is, let alone who Shi Xiaolong is!"

"Don't drag us post-90s into it, okay, Lao Tzu is 97 years old, who is Cai Xukun?"

"What age is it now, who watches this kind of movie?"

"That's right, director Wang Jing, it must be a bad movie!"

Although after reading so many comments, there was a little fluctuation in his heart, but Xie Xiaoke didn't have any doubts at all, how the box office of the movie depends mainly on the sophistication of the production and the plot, as long as every detail has to be carefully made, it doesn't matter whether the box office is good or not.
