Chapter 245: Temptation

The Hong Kong film market ushered in a wave of peaks in April, but these have nothing to do with Ranfeng Group and Jiang Ran, and there are no excellent movies released by Ranfeng Group this month, except for a pornographic movie of Dragon, Tiger and Leopard.

After the time entered late April, the script of Jiang Ran's new film completed the third revision, and he began to select locations and actors, and Jiang Ran's own energy was mainly focused on this movie.

"Mr. Jiang, what do you think of these places? Are they suitable?" Shi Nansheng handed Jiang Ran a document with information on several locations selected by the production department.

Jiang Ran took the information documents handed over by Shi Nansheng, carefully looked at the few places they had selected, thought about it in his heart, and said, "Put this here first, and I'll take the time to take a look at it in person in the next few days." ”

"Do you have any opinions on the actors?" Jiang Ran asked again without waiting for Shi Nansheng to answer.

As the most heavyweight film of Ranfeng Group this year, although Jiang Ran's film has not yet started filming, after the investment is in place, many actors have found Ranfeng Group through various relationships.

Even, during the investment negotiations, Zou Wenhuai also had the idea of this aspect, but in the end, Jiang Ran's tough posture was there, and he chose to give up and compromise.

"Mr. Jiang, I discussed this matter with Ah Hong, and our opinion is that it is better to give priority to a few main actors or our own artists. In terms of the two main actresses, one is Guan Zhilin, who has already been determined, and the other is what do you think of Dai Yue'e?"

Shi Nansheng knew his own weight, and he knew that in this movie, the use of actors must be Jiang Ran's dictatorship, so when facing Jiang Ran's consultation, she just put forward some guiding opinions.

Jiang Ran nodded, agreeing with Shi Nansheng's opinion, "What about the actor?"

This time, Shi Nansheng did not cover up, but directly gave his opinion, "I think Chow Yun-fat must be given a place, he is now the top male actor in our company after all." Another mainland veteran, we don't have a suitable actor, I don't know if Mr. Jiang has a suitable candidate, I have a good contact here. ”

Jiang Ran was not surprised by this opinion, after all, Chow Yun-fat, as the company's top actor, was a little unreasonable if he was not given a chance in such a big project.

Therefore, in the early script compilation process, although Zhong Chuhong intentionally or unintentionally affected the role setting of the male protagonist in the movie, Jiang Ran has not stopped it.

"Well, I have no problem with Chow Yun-fat getting a role. Another main actor, I want to invite Jet Li, what do you think?" Jiang Ran then gave his opinion on another actor after confirming Chow Yun-fat.

"Jet Li?" Shi Nansheng was slightly stunned after listening to Jiang Ran's words, and then reflected, "Mainland actor?"

"Yes, that's him. Jiang Ran nodded in confirmation.

Shi Nansheng didn't expect Jiang Ran to give such an opinion, frowned slightly, and asked with some uncertainty: "I heard that the personnel relationship between mainland actors is a bit complicated, so it's not easy to invite, right? In addition, with the words of mainland actors, will it affect the release of the film in Taiwan?"

Jiang Ran was also a little relieved of this question, and said, "You can invite it to try it in the name of the group first." The personnel relationship of the actors over there is in the collective unit, and you can ask Yindu to help contact it. ”

"As for the Taiwan side, it shouldn't be a big problem. After all, our film has Hollywood investment in it, and our own relationship in Taiwan is now maintaining a good relationship, as long as there are no problems with the media, I don't think it's a big problem. ”

"In this case, after I go down, I will contact Jet Li in the mainland in the name of Ranfeng Group. Seeing Jiang Ran's resolute attitude, Shi Nansheng had to nod and agree.

While Jiang Ran was busy with his new movie, the investment attraction of Ranfeng Group's new cinema had begun to ferment in Hong Kong's business circle, and related industries basically got the news.

Among them, Pan Disheng's Disheng Company became the first company to publicly respond to Ranfeng Group. In the words of Pan Disheng, such a move is not only because they have always had a deep and good cooperative relationship with Ranfeng Group, but also because he himself is optimistic about this cinema plan of Ranfeng Group.

Under the influence of Pan Disheng's Disheng Company, coupled with the business network rolled out by Ranfeng Group in recent years, the store plan of Ranfeng Cinema has been very smooth.

When the store investment plan was going well, the cinema's investment promotion action in entertainment venues was not going well. The reason for this is mainly because in Hong Kong, almost all of the operators in these entertainment industries have underworld backgrounds, and this is a very taboo thing for Jiang Ran and Ranfeng Group.

"Mr. Jiang, the problem now is that all the people who run these entertainment venues in Hong Kong basically have underworld backgrounds, and if we directly reject these people, then the entertainment venues in our cinema will not be able to be built, unless we do it ourselves. ”

Jiang Ran frowned and listened to Gui Zecheng's report, and directly rejected his proposal to build its own entertainment venue in Ranfeng Cinema.

"We don't have the energy to build entertainment venues ourselves, which is also not in line with our business direction, and there is no need to be distracted. Jiang Ran said. As for whether to cooperate with these people with underworld backgrounds, Jiang Ran was a little undecided.

"I'll think about this again! Jiang Ran finally had to tell Gui Zecheng like this.

After Gui Zecheng went out, Jiang Ran thought for a while, and spared the back of his head with some distress, but there was still no good way.

Bell - Bell!

When he was worried, the phone on the desk rang, Jiang Ran straightened up and picked up the phone, "Hello! I'm Jiang Ran." ”

"Ah Ran, it's me, Ah Qing. A familiar voice came over the phone.

"Ah Qing, it's rare for you to call me. Jiang Ran heard Ah Qing's phone call and said with a smile. "What's the matter? Tell me, you're fine, and you don't contact me now. ”

Now the relationship between Jiang Ran and A Qing is still very good, but there is not much contact between each other, mainly because Jiang Ran is now more and more important, and he is a public figure, when Ah Qing is fine, he subconsciously reduces his contact with Jiang Ran.

Regarding Jiang Ran's words, Ah Qing did not refute them, and said directly: "Ah Ran, I really have something to do with you today." As he spoke, he paused, organized his words, and then spoke:

"Mr. Xiang knows that your Ranfeng Group is preparing to build a new cinema and needs to attract investment in entertainment venues, he is very interested in this and wants to cooperate with you Ranfeng, but it seems that you Ranfeng directly rejected most of the operators in Hong Kong in this matter, so he asked me to find out your tone. ”

Jiang Ran didn't expect Xiang Huaqiang to directly greet Ah Qing, after thinking about it, he didn't hide it, and directly said his concerns.

"We do have investment in this area, and we do reject a lot of interested operators, because these people have underworld backgrounds. I'm more worried that after pulling them in, they will engage in illegal activities in our Burning Maple Studios. ”

"You know, the business direction of our Ranfeng Group makes us often pay attention to the public media and the public, if there are drugs and other bad social impact in Ranfeng Cinema, it will be a disastrous thing for our group. ”

After listening to Jiang Ran's words, Ah Qing was silent for a while, and then said, "In this case, I don't have any good ideas. I'll report your words to Mr. Xiang and see what he thinks. ”

Jiang Ran is also a little blind now, so after listening to Ah Qing's words, he also nodded and agreed, just in time to take the opportunity to test the bottom line of these Hong Kong underworld organizations.
