Ang Lee took it and saw that it was Mr. Zombie's box office document, good guys China box office 3.1 billion yuan, 5th in Chinese film history, 3rd in Xiangjiang film history, 6th in Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia and other regions have good box office. There has even been a wave of zombie fever throughout Asia.

Li An, who was watching, couldn't help nodding.

Ang Lee said: I plan to recruit a director in a few days, do you need it, I'll pay attention to a few for you.

An Mingxin shook his head and said: I have recruited a few directors now, and the only thing I lack is a heavyweight director, and you will give it to me if you find a big director.

Ang Lee shook his head and said: I won't want a big director, it's a trivial matter to make a lot of money, I'm afraid that he will continue to play a big name.

An Mingxin said with a smile: Is the acquisition of Motorola successful?

Ang Lee nodded and said: It was successful, and the U.S. Department of Commerce also allowed them to move out of the United States, this time they can look away.

An Mingxin said: Doesn't it take a lot of money to arrange them, do you still have it?

Li An said: There are still some more, enough, not enough, I will open your mouth for you.

An Mingxin nodded.

Three days later, Ang Li signed a contract with Wang Dahu and officially renamed the building "Wanda Commercial Building".

Wanda's film and television company also moved to this commercial building.

Today happened to be the time when Ang Lee was interviewing for the director, and there were more than a dozen men sitting in a spacious hall on the 30th floor of the Wanda Commercial Building.

Ang Lee has interviewed more than a dozen people today while sitting in the main seat, and Li An'an is impetuous, not a single one is in the picture, all of them graduated from a regular directing school, and they don't have any special ideas and specialties, just this kind of movie that can be a box office hit.

Politely sent off a director just now, Ang Lee habitually lit a cigarette, and then walked in, a man with a slender figure who seemed to be blown down by a gust of wind looked at Ang Lee with glasses and said with a smile: Hello Director Li, I am your fan, my name is Xu Ke, I graduated from Southern Methodist University in Texas, USA, and later transferred to the University of Texas at Austin to study radio, television, and film, and once co-produced a 45-minute documentary about Asian-Americans "A Thousand Clocks" with a friend.

Ang Lee saw that a director who graduated from a prestigious American school finally came, and said politely: So you haven't practiced shooting a movie yet, right?

Can you tell us why you want to be a director?

Xu Xu said with a yearning face: I like movies, and I also like martial arts, I want to combine movies with martial arts, and put them for the people of the whole country to watch, so that those who like martial arts can enjoy this feast with me.

Seeing the enthusiasm for the movie, Ang Lee nodded, if you love your job, there is nothing you can't do.

Ang Lee continued: How do you understand martial arts.

Tsui Hark said: I have been a martial arts fan since I was a child, and the reason for this is because martial arts films are very different from foreign films, which can make me feel the obvious characteristics of Chinese culture. What is "martial arts", in terms of the meaning of the word, "wu" is action, and "chivalry" is chivalry and chivalry.

In my understanding, martial arts culture actually includes medicine, psychology, physics, customs, religion, history and other Chinese cultural content. When we go abroad to study, many people will bring a martial arts novel, because martial arts novels will bring us a very Chinese feeling, which is the same as others bringing "Dream of Red Mansions", which is a kind of cultural nostalgia.

Hollywood is also making movies similar to martial arts films, just like "Star Wars" is also a martial arts movie, it will use our martial arts technology to make science fiction movies, but this is not what I think of martial arts. The martial arts films I understand must be in the Chinese cultural background, and the development of martial arts films in the future cannot be separated from the performance of this culture, which actually has a lot of room for development.

Ang Lee nodded approvingly, regardless of whether what he said was right or not, this understanding of martial arts and movies is not what is generally thought, at this time, a talent, a talent who lacks opportunities.

Li An stood up and said: Your idea is very good, you have been admitted, and you will go to the personnel department to sign the contract later!

Hearing Ang Lee's words, he stood up excitedly and said, "Do you agree with my idea?" Do you also feel that I am right?

Ang Lee said: I'm going to shoot a kung fu movie in a few days, you can be my deputy!

Xu Xu nodded excitedly and walked out.

Finally included a talent, Ang Lee sighed and said: Next.

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and a smiling fat man entered.

The fat man looked at Ang Lee and said: Hello director, my name is Liu Wei, I admire your "gambling saint" very much, I used to be a screenwriter of Vantone, but I think I can be a director, please give me a chance.

Ang Lee smiled and said: Since you are the screenwriter of Vantone, why don't you become a director at Vantone.

Liu Wei said: There are too many directors of Vantone, and there are many capable ones, old companies, and they have to be senior, and I feel that their thinking is aging, and they want to make some high-box office movies with ideas and depth every day, which is simply whimsical, what is the director for, not to make money for investors.

What can make money is a good movie, no matter what depth of thought he has.

Ang Lee nodded and felt that this person was very interesting, if he was really willing to work hard to be a director, he would definitely have a place in the director world in the future.

Ang Lee said: Then what kind of movies do you think make money?

Liu Wei didn't want to blurt out and said: Comedy.

The audience goes to the cinema to enjoy and eliminate their troubles, and the box office will definitely not be high when a tragedy is made, who will spend money to find guilt.

Ang Lee became more and more interested in this fat paper and said: Give you a week, give me a comedy script, if I can watch it, how about I sign a contract with you.

Liu Wei smiled and said: It won't take a week, I'll have it on me now.

After speaking, he handed Ang Lee a copy of the script.

Li An took it and looked at it, and was stunned, "East becomes West", Liu Wei's masterpiece in his previous life.

However, there is no "Legend of the Condor Heroes" in this world, how did you write "East Becomes West"? Is there really a genius?

Anyway, let's open it first.

It is said that the traitorous concubine of Jinlun Kingdom had an affair with her cousin Ouyang Feng, so she attacked first and killed the king to take the jade seal, in order to occupy the country. After a long battle, Ouyang Feng injured the third princess who kept the jade seal, but she always escaped. After Hu Tu found out the whereabouts of the three princesses, Ouyang Feng chased after him with a rocket golden boot, but mistakenly fell off a boot and killed Wang Chongyang, who had just come out of the customs. The third princess was instructed by the real people of the Nine Palaces, and was accompanied by the real apprentice Huang Yaoshi to get the Nine Yin True Scripture to avenge the country, but it aroused the jealousy of the little sister.

The two failed to learn from the scriptures, and met Duan Wangye at the Dadong Inn, it turned out that Duan Wangye and the third princess had been friendly since childhood, but he was an Arhat toshi, and he had to break off his love and find a true person to become an immortal. Later, Zhou Botong rushed over, mistakenly thinking that the third princess had killed his senior brother, and then because of the practice of "Sanhua Gathering Top", he went crazy and became delirious, and the third princess pretended to be Wang Chongyang, which made Zhou Botong regain his strength and continue to look for the murderer. Duan Wang Ye found out that Huang Yaoshi was the true person he dreamed of, and finally pretended to be the third princess to lead the east to say "I love you" and got his wish. After a group of people fought on Danxia Mountain, Ouyang Feng got the Nine Yin True Scripture and returned to China to cultivate, and everyone fought with him under the leadership of the national teacher, and finally defeated Ouyang Feng with the help of Duan Wangye, who had become an immortal.

Even though he has watched the finished film a few times, it still makes Ang Lee laugh when he sees the script again.

Closing the script, Ang Lee said with a smile: Li is really a talent, the script is very good, just in terms of funny, it is no less than any movie I know.

Liu Wei said happily: So you are willing to sign me and let me be a director.

Ang Lee said: That's right, you are equivalent to Zhang Liang of the Great Han, but your talent has not been discovered yet, can you tell me how you came up with this script?

Liu Wei said embarrassedly: In fact, it was your "gambling saint" that inspired me, and I only knew for the first time that the original exaggerated movie was so funny, so I wrote this script, but the senior management of Vantone said that I was fooling around.

I thought that you were the only one in the country who could understand what I was writing, and I happened to see that you were recruiting a director, so I came over.

Ang Lee nodded and said: How about I give you a chance to make this movie with an all-star cast.

Liu Wei glared and said: All-star lineup, can I use the Four Heavenly Kings?

Li An nodded and said: Don't be so stingy, think bigger.

Liu Wei's glasses were bigger and said: I don't dare to think about it, I am afraid that I will not be able to control so many big names, and if I invest so much, I will become a sinner.

Li An patted Liu Wei on the shoulder and said: Who do you want to use to make a table by yourself, and when the time comes, you will find someone to ask me for, no matter how big the bowl is, it will not cost money, but you must take a good picture for me. And it should be fast, preferably within a month.

Liu Wei said excitedly: Guarantee to complete the task.
