Chapter 53: The Frog Prince's Celebration Banquet
"The Frog Prince" is a big hit, so naturally it is going to hold a celebration banquet, Zhang Junyi learned that on the day when the box office of "The Frog Prince" exceeded 15 million in the first week, he asked Wang Jing to arrange it, and the time was arranged for the next night. Anyway, the people invited by the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info are all locals in Xiangjiang, so there is no problem in inviting guests to hold a celebration banquet a day in advance.
Because the protagonist of this celebration banquet is the crew of "The Frog Prince", Zhang Junyi did not take the initiative to invite anyone this time, and all the guests were invited by the crew of "The Frog Prince".
The venue of the celebration banquet is the Xue family restaurant, I heard that the chef of this restaurant was the imperial chef of Cixi Lafayette, the store environment is warm and classical, with flaming red lanterns, traditional wooden tables and chairs, brick walls, with a strong Chinese style, full of charm. The restaurant mainly operates Sichuan and Shandong cuisines.
In the evening, from more than six o'clock in the evening, the Xue Family Restaurant was already very lively, and many guests in the hall had already come in advance.
Zhao Yazhi didn't accompany Zhang Junyi today, Zhao Yazhi went back to her parents' house today. At seven o'clock in the evening, Zhang Junyi took his Rolls-Royce to the door of the restaurant under the attack of a Mercedes-Benz in the front and rear, and when he got out of the car, he happened to see Wang Jing and Huang Xingxiu, who played one of the heroines of "The Frog Prince", get off the bus together, he asked with some curiosity: "Why are you the protagonist of today so late?" Zhang Junyi thought about it for a while, isn't it, in the time and space of his previous life, Wang Jing's first child, Wang Tongyi, was born in 1980.
"Don't mention it, my wife just gave birth to a child, and she helps take care of the child at home," Wang Jing said with a wry smile. The two of them were talking while thinking about the restaurant, but before they entered the hall of the restaurant, the flashing lights directly dizzed their eyes.
Today, the reporters who rushed to the scene after hearing the news of the celebration banquet were all stopped by the security guards at the entrance of the hall, and as soon as Zhang Junyi and Wang Jing appeared, they immediately became the focus of the camera's attention. Before the two could react, a reporter had already started asking questions.
"Zhang Sheng, is the screenwriter of "The Frog Prince" yourself, do you have anything to say to everyone now?"
"Zhang Sheng, are you satisfied that the first film shot by your company is such a big hit?"
"As a billionaire, how did you write scripts like "Zhu Xian" and "The Frog Princeγγγγγγγ"?"
The reporters who came to hear the news actually came to Zhang Junyi.
"I'm a reporter from Xin Pao, can Zhang Sheng answer me a question, do you have anything to say about the big sale of "The Frog Prince" directed by Wang Jing?"
A reporter reported his home, of course Zhang Junyi would give face to the reporter of his newspaper, thought about it for a while, and a playful smile appeared on his face, "Yitian's first movie failed to be filmed, will it disappoint some people?"
It's a pity that Zhang Junyi never gave other reporters a chance to ask questions, he dragged Wang Jing over as a shield, and he took the opportunity to walk into the lobby of the restaurant under the escort of bodyguards.
Wang Jing was surrounded by reporters, and scolded Zhang Junyi in his heart for using him to prevent disasters, but he couldn't help Zhang Junyi to make the family the boss, but he still had to pretend to be a smile on his face and began to deal with various problems. Wang Jing finally got rid of this group of reporters and entered the lobby of the restaurant.
In the center of the hall of the Xue family restaurant, there is a dragon-shaped ice sculpture on the table, which is appropriated by Zhang Junyi according to the memory of the ice-breaking ceremony of the ice-breaking ceremony of the previous life.
The main personnel of the crew of "The Frog Prince" are in the hall to receive the invited guests, Wang Jing, as the director of the film's big hit, was sent by Zhang Junyi to receive the guests as soon as he entered the hall.
The most attractive thing in the restaurant hall is the actresses, competing for beauty, Lin Fengjiao, Mi Xue, Zhong Chuhong, Huang Xingxiu....... And so on, one by one, the dresses are showing, and the men in the room are also adrenaline-rushing.
Although this celebration banquet of "The Frog Prince" was invited by Wang Jing and several people, knowing that Zhang Junyi would appear at the scene at that time, with his face, the celebration banquet ceremony was naturally very grand. Not only many well-known figures in the business community of Hong Kong have come to participate, but in addition, most of the famous figures in the Hong Kong entertainment industry have also come. Although almost all of these people were invited by Wang Jing and Chen Baixiang, they didn't come to see the face of the two of them, and taking this opportunity to get in touch with Zhang Junyi or get acquainted with each other is what most people really think.
After Wang Jing finished the opening speech of the celebration banquet, the next step was to officially smash the ice sculpture. Under the gaze of many reporters, Wang Jing, Du Qifeng, and the leading actors of "The Frog Prince" got up and walked to the front of the ice sculpture.
With warm applause, Wang Jing smiled again and said: "Thank you very much for your applause, now I would like to invite the chairman of Yitian Film and Television Media Co., Ltd., who is also the screenwriter of "The Frog Prince", to speak. β
Zhang Junyi didn't expect Wang Jing to put him here, so he reluctantly turned on the microphone and said with a smile: "First of all, thank you very much to all the guests and reporters for coming to the celebration banquet of "The Frog Prince", and witnessing the historic moment when Yitian's first production and release of "The Frog Prince" exceeded 15 million box office in the first week. β
"We are deeply honored that the first film can be liked by the majority of people in Hong Kong, and the crew of "The Frog Prince" is deeply honored, which also prompts us to work harder in the future to make every step of the film of Yitian strict requirements and excellence!
Although today is a celebration of the box office success of "The Frog Prince", there is no doubt that Zhang Junyi is the absolute protagonist of this celebration party.
On the main table, Zhang Junyi's left is Wang Jing, on the right is Du Qifeng, and the rest are the leading actors of "The Frog Prince" Zhong Zhentao and Chen Baixiang, as well as Huang Xingxiu, Mi Yan, and Lin Fengjiao, the three beauties who attract gold. Wang Jing saluted Zhang Junyi with the first glass of wine, Wang Jing thanked Zhang Junyi from the bottom of his heart, if Zhang Junyi hadn't given him this opportunity, he didn't know when he would have the opportunity to become a director. Some of the people present today, during the time when Wang Jing was in the wireless mess, said that Wang Jing would have been better if he hadn't had a good old man, and now Wang Jing was standing in front of them with high spirits, raising his eyebrows in his heart, and the more he drank the wine, the happier he became.
Zhang Junyi was chatting with Wang Jingzheng, and suddenly noticed that Du Qifeng patted his shoulder and couldn't help but look sideways. "Hung Jinbao, he's coming!" Looking in the direction of Du Qifeng's finger, Zhang Junyi saw Mecca walking towards him with Sammo Hung in his hand, Hung Jinbao's fat body and the scar on his mouth were very easy to recognize.
Zhang Junyi knew through the memories of his previous life that the two had a good relationship, and he also formed a film company in the early days, but the company was dissolved not long after.
