Beijing, China Film Group.

Han Sanping received Wu Bo, chairman of Chengtian Entertainment, in his office to discuss the production and distribution of "Red Cliff".

As a super blockbuster with an investment of up to 600 million, "Red Cliff" has actually been in preparation since 04.

Han Sanping looked for a number of excellent screenwriters, brainstormed, determined the initial script outline, and divided the story of "The Battle of Red Cliffs" into 6 paragraphs, namely:

"Liu Bei is benevolent for the people".

"Erqiao sacrificed his life to take 'righteousness'"

"Kong Zhizhi excites Zhou Yu"

"Zhou Yu borrowed a knife to kill"

"Kong Ming Grass Boat Borrowed Arrows"

and "borrowing the east wind to burn the red cliffs".

After the screenwriting team determined the outline, Han Sanping invited Zhou Jingzhi, who had the title of "China's No. 1 Screenwriter", to write the script.

It took nearly two years, and the script was changed 8 times, but Wu Baige was still not satisfied.

"Han Dong, Wu Yusen wants to adapt the characters in the film without violating history, so that Liu Bei is no longer cowardly, Cao Cao is no longer treacherous, and Zhou Yu is no longer cautious. I always feel like it's not right!"

Wu Bo took a sip of the teacup and said with some concern.

Han Sanping nodded, his eyes were also not so relaxed.

"Movies are not as short as TV series, the time is too short, especially this kind of historical blockbuster, the character of the character has a fixed impression in the audience's mind, and it is not so easy to reverse this impression within two hours!"

"But since he was invited, everything must come according to his requirements, after all, he made the movie!"

He continued, "Zhou Jingzhi is a TV series screenwriter after all, and there are still some differences from movies, so let's go to Lu Wei and see if he is interested!"

"Lu Wei has written the scripts of "Farewell My Concubine" and "Alive", if Wu Yusen is not satisfied now, he can only let him write the script himself!" Wu Bo said with a wry smile.

After talking about the script, we discussed the distribution in Asia.

"Red Cliff" is not only a big investment, but also a test of Han Sanping's water in Asia, the first time to try the box office sharing model overseas, otherwise it would not have pulled Chengtian with a Japanese-funded background.

After chatting about business, Wu Bo suddenly talked about the "Super Body" that was being released.

After turning around and praising the box office of "Super Body" exceeding 10 million on the first day, Wu Bo asked Han Sanping tentatively.

"Han Dong, Tang An was brought up by you, if it weren't for you, I don't know if his first movie would have a chance to be released, in your opinion, what path does he want to take?"

"What does Mr. Wu mean?" Han Sanping said in surprise.

"Dong Han, you also know that I have always wanted to invite Tang An to join, but there has been no answer for more than a year, so I wondered if he wanted to make a company by himself!"

At the dinner after the premiere, Wu Bo mentioned this matter again, but Tang An still prevaricated vaguely.

And there was no movement on Hua Yi's side, so the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Tang An was fooling them, and he actually wanted to start his own business.

Han Sanping smiled, "Mr. Wu doesn't know that Tang An's studio has recently bought a lot of houses in the capital, it is estimated that there must be 20 million, and the overseas copyright fees are estimated to have been spent, if you really start a business, will you buy so much real estate!"

Wu Bo suddenly, "It turns out that Han Dong is also paying attention to Tang An's movements!"

Han Sanping smiled and did not speak.

20 million, plus the share of the mainland box office, is definitely not a small number in the entertainment industry.

This is real cash, enough to make a difference in the entertainment industry, if Tang An wants to start his own business, it is not impossible to grasp it from production to publicity.

As the chairman of China Film, how could Han Sanping not pay attention!

Hearing this, Wu Bo was also relieved, and he then said, "I don't know if Han Dong can do me a favor and persuade Tang An to come to me, I promise to give him the greatest freedom!"

......

Huayi Brothers Group, the chairman's office, Wang Zhongjun is also entertaining Chen Guozhang, the former production director of Columbia Asia.

Wang Zhongjun took out a thin envelope from the drawer and handed it over, and said with sincere gratitude, "Lao Chen, I've troubled you this time!"

Chen Guochang smiled and waved his hand, but did not pick up the envelope.

"I will play a leading role in the matter of "Night Banquet", and I can't interfere in the real decision, this money is well deserved!"

"Moreover, I officially left my post a month before the last evaluation, and I was still impressed by the quality of the film!"

"Night Banquet" relied on the nickname of "Oriental Hamlet" and Zhang Ziyi's little fame overseas, so that Columbi, who tasted the huge benefits brought by "Hero" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", paid a price of 10 million US dollars for it.

Although the project was led by Chen Guozhang in the early stage, he was as smart as he resigned a month before the headquarters made a decision.

If he does not resign, he will not be able to interfere with the final decision.

Resigned early, everything has nothing to do with him, whether Colombia suffers or not!

He resigned normally, and he didn't tear his face with his old club, and there will be more cooperation between the two sides in the future.

Chen Guochang repeatedly excused himself several times, and Wang Zhongjun put the envelope back in the drawer.

"Then Lao Chen, when will we have a press conference, I will also give you the wind!"

"Don't be in a hurry for this first, the group information given to me by Wang Dong hasn't been read yet, don't worry about it at this time!"

"Is there a reply from Tang An?"

"He means to talk about it after a while, but there is a chance that it depends on what conditions he wants!"

Wang Zhongjun smiled slightly, looking confident.

"Oh, Wang Dong is so sure?" said Chen Guoqi.

"Wu Bo hasn't given up yet!"

"Chengtian doesn't have to worry, he thinks that pulling over a star will make it happen!" Wang Zhongjun said disdainfully.

"Recently, I heard that Tang An is hoarding real estate in the capital, and he has bought almost 30 houses, all of which are small apartments of seventy or eighty square meters!"

Chen Guochang thought thoughtfully, "In that case, he doesn't have the idea of starting his own company!"

"I was worried about this before, but now I can rest assured, all he wants is money, I can give it!"

"As long as you can help me, we will work together to make Huayi bigger, surpass Bernard, go public, and even go to Hollywood to buy a giant, and it is not a dream to buy a few theaters from it!"

Wang Zhongjun said proudly.

Isn't this for Chen Guozhang!

......

Walking out of the Huayi Building, the doubts in Chen Guoyan's eyes became deeper and deeper, Wang Zhongjun's bluffing young man just now was almost the same, he just went in his left ear and went out in his right ear.

But the news about Tang An made him very puzzled.

Could it be that Tang An really has no ambition and is willing to work for others? just for money?

"Am I looking away!"

Chen Guochang muttered and left.

The purpose of his visit to Huayi is the same as when he went to Colombia, from Treasure Island to Colombia and then to Huayi.

The film market in North America, Europe, Asia, and the world has accumulated a certain amount of personal relationships.

As long as the time is ripe, it may not be impossible to do a career!

If Tang An just wants to be a director, it is not impossible to bring him under his command in the future.
