"Ah Guan, long time no see, how is it lately?" Zhou Bai knocked on Guan Jingpeng's door, saw Ah Guan hugging him and said, Zhou Bai was very happy to see him again.

"I'm okay, how are you? I heard that you and Maggie are working together on a blockbuster, how is the filming going?" Guan Jingpeng was also very excited, seeing Zhou Bai again, it has been almost a year apart, within this year, "Lan Yu" was released, Golden Horse was nominated, and Zhou Bai's own movie was released, participating in blockbuster performances, and there was a feeling that things were wrong.

"Maggie's acting skills are so good, it's a bit stressful to work with her, but I can learn a lot from her, I came on leave, and I have to rush back after participating in the Golden Horse. Zhou Bai said helplessly.

"You're not bad, the only thing that's not as good as her is experience, it's good to make more movies, are you still comfortable making action movies?" Guan Jingpeng laughed, he is very confident in Zhou Bai's acting skills, Zhang Manyu is of course powerful, but Zhou Bai is not an actor who can be easily suppressed by her.

"It's fun to shoot action movies, but I'm just too tired, if I don't have a good physical strength, I really can't make action movies, I was dropped for 20 days, flying around every day, getting bruises. Zhou Bai was happy at first and then became sad and said, looking like he had palpitations.

Hanging Weiya is not an easy thing, especially Zhou Bai has been missing for twenty days, Lao Mouzi has reached the point of nitpicking about the camera, just a shot of a sword cutting through the water, he has shot dozens of times, and even the shape of the splash must meet the requirements.

"It's a waste that you don't shoot action movies with such a good figure, isn't it good, have you seen Liu Ye since you came to Wanwan?" Guan Jingpeng laughed, and then asked.

"No, I'm not on the same flight as him, have you seen him? I've met a few times before when I was promoting a movie, and then I was busy filming, and this kid called me a few days ago and said he came first. Zhou Bai shook his head, he hadn't seen Liu Ye since he came to Taiwan.

"I've seen him, he's in good shape now, and I'm relieved of him. Guan Jingpeng's eyes were a little inexplicable.

"......" Zhou Bai was silent for a moment.

"I haven't congratulated you on the big sale of the movie, the box office broke 100 million, which frightened many people, and it also got a box office of 23 million in Xiangjiang, and it is also very good to be ranked sixth, the box office of mainland movies in Xiangjiang has always been not very good, Gordon is proud once. Guan Jingpeng only sighed a little, and turned to "Fifty Times of First Love".

Gordon is Chen Jiashang's English name, Guan Jingpeng has been in Xiangjiang for many years, and he has been used to calling each other by his English name, and Gordon's translated words are Gordon.

The Xiangjiang distribution of "Fifty First Loves" was handed over to Jiang Zhiqiang, he has always had channels in Xiangjiang, Zhou Bai himself has no distribution foundation in Xiangjiang, so he simply handed it over to him, this time the box office is very good, and it has a box office of more than 23 million, which can be said to be an excellent result.

The champion of this year's Xiangjiang movie is Xing Ye's "Shaolin Football", 60.74 million Hong Kong dollars left other movies behind, and also allowed Xing Ye to sweep away the downturn in previous years, and this box office broke many records.

This time Xing Ye is proud of himself, after falling out with Xiang Jia, Xiang Jia released his words, Xing Ye would not be able to find an investor, if it weren't for Huanyu's boss Lin Xiaoming who invested 10 million US dollars in him, it is difficult to say whether this movie can start filming, Xiangjiang alone got 60 million box office, and there are various copyrights in other regions added up, making money is a certainty, but unfortunately next year Xing Ye will fall out with Lin Xiaoming, and there will be a lot of turmoil.

Liu Dehua's "Thin Man and Woman" won 40 million box office, and he was also shortlisted for the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor with this movie.

Cheng Long's "Spy Maze" won 30 million, ranking third, Mei Gu's "Zhong Wuyan" ranked fourth with 27 million, and the fifth place was "Full-time Killer", with a box office of more than 25 million, another movie starring Liu Dehua, it can be said that Liu Dehua exploded this year, and Zhou Bai's "Fifty First Loves" ranked sixth.

"It's a surprise, next time I want to cooperate with Director Chen, it's not the same price as before, and now I can't afford to invite him. Zhou Bai smiled and said half-truthfully.

"He admires you very much, as long as you want to please, there is a previous basis, I believe he will be willing to reduce the price, but he has received a lot of invitations now, oh, if you want to invite him, you have to book early. Guan Jingpeng smiled happily, because he killed Chen Jiashang in this matter.

Zhou Bai smiled bitterly and shook his head, Chen Jiashang's current price is at least five million, and it is difficult to reduce the price of a director with the hat of 100 million yuan.

"Anyway, do you have time to direct another movie? I have a book, which is now in preparation, are you interested? Zhou Bai asked, he really wanted to work with Guan Jingpeng again, and his style was very suitable for the movie script.

"Did you bring the script? I'll take a look at it first. Guan Jingpeng pondered for a moment, then raised his head and asked.

"Brought, I put it in the room, this movie can be said to be a literary film, the style is also very suitable for you, the total investment is more than 30 million, there is no cap at present, and the actor is still looking for it. Zhou Bai said truthfully, and he had no reservations with Ah Guan.

"You dare to invest 30 million in literary films, it's really bold, the 30 million you said is just the production cost, not including the publicity funds, right?" Guan Jingpeng was shocked, this investment in literary and artistic films is not small, and it is even more scary if there is no cap.

"I plan to invite Gong Li to play the heroine, she is an international actress, although the salary is not too high, but if it is converted into RMB, it will not be less than five million, and there are a lot of other expenses for the filming of this movie, so 30 million may not be enough. Zhou Bai said calmly.

Gong Li's salary is not high, but the problem is that it is difficult for her to invite, and after the addition of international actresses, this money must be a lot in RMB, if the salary is not in place, it is basically impossible to invite her to cooperate, but as a literary film, the mainland does not want to recover the cost, only counting on overseas distribution or copyright can have hope, if there is no popularity, it is difficult for the film to sell.

"You are adventurous enough, the environment is not good now, you should be cautious in investment, don't be fooled by the box office of the previous movie, the box office of commercial films and literary films cannot be compared. Guan Jingpeng hesitated for a moment, but decided to remind Zhou Bai.

"I know that I made a decision after a lot of consideration, this time I introduced investment from other aspects, which can be regarded as sharing the risk, whether this movie can make money is another matter, at least I am still confident that I will not lose much. Zhou Bai said confidently.

"Okay, I'll go to your room to read the script first, but seriously, it may be difficult for me to keep a schedule, if not, I'll recommend a director to you. Guan Jingpeng nodded and said.
