Chapter 488: Cooperation Comes to the Door
Simply, Cheng Kaige came to the door, not because "Wuji" was short of money, but because of the lack of money in "Wuji", think about it, how could the boss of China Film lack this money, the reason why he came to the door was because of Lu Deshuang's relationship and cinema chain in Hollywood, it can be said that after the company was collectivized, Lu Deshuang's company in the United States was naturally exposed, and that cinema line naturally couldn't hide it. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Uncle Cheng, let's arrange for the movie to be released, this is no problem, but let's be a villain first and then a gentleman, if the attendance rate is not ideal......
If someone else comes over, Lu Deshuang will spray him with salt water on his face, but it's a pity who made Cheng Kaige his elder, for his request, Lu Deshuang can't refuse, and he can't find a reason to refuse, is it now telling Cheng Kaige that "Wuji" is a big bad movie, and the box office in North America is only 660,000, let's see if Cheng Kaige will fight hard with Lu Deshuang.
"Don't worry, your uncle is not an unreasonable person, my grades are not satisfactory, you don't need to look at my face, you just do business."
Because Cheng Kaige will never think that "Wuji" will lose money now, people are full of confidence, and even the slogan has been shouted, pointing at Zhang Yimou's "Hero", with a clear appearance of challenging the status of "Hero", a fool will pour cold water on Cheng Kaige at this juncture.
Well, let's sell it as a favor.
I don't know if "Wuji" has brought too much pressure to Cheng Kaige, and every subsequent work has been more or less unsatisfactory, and he has always encountered unlucky things, and he has completely lost the aura of the "Farewell My Concubine" period, but Cheng Kaige's connections in the circle are still very strong, which is what Lu Deshuang needs.
"Then there will be no problem on my side, when the time comes, you ask someone to contact me, and I will arrange it for you!"
After sending Cheng Kaige away, Lu Deshuang took out a notebook from the safe under his desk, since he was going to make a big-budget movie, it was naturally impossible for Lu Deshuang to go outside to find those uncertain scripts, in case of a loss, who would he cry to.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Lu Deshuang has decided to come up with the big-budget movies that have been successful in his previous life.
However, due to the lack of personnel in the company, he can only start shooting three big-budget movies at once, which causes Lu Deshuang to be entangled, because one of the three big-scale productions has long been set to start filming the second part of "The Hunger Games", that is, Lu Deshuang only needs to come up with two.
But there are many, many excellent movies in Lu Deshuang's memory, and it is really a bit difficult to choose two out of so many.
Open the notebook, the names of the movies are written on the page, there are all kinds of movies, not only domestic movies, but even excellent foreign movies, all of which have been circled by Lu Deshuang, after successively crossing out several science fiction movies that could not be made during this period and some movies that involve future plots, there are still more than a dozen movies for Lu Deshuang to choose from.
Tuk tuk!
The knock on the door interrupted Lu Deshuang's contemplation, and he quickly closed the notebook and locked it back into the safe under the desk, before shouting outside the door: "Come in!" "It's no wonder that he attaches so much importance to it, but this notebook must not be leaked, even if there are only some movie names on it, it will still bring a lot of risk to Lu Deshuang.
"Chairman, Mr. Zhang Xueyou and Director Cheng Kexin have arrived!"
"Invite them in!"
Regarding Zhang Xueyou's purpose this time, after hearing the name Cheng Kexin, Lu Deshuang already had some guesses in his heart, he invited Zhang Xueyou to star in "Infernal Affairs", but was rejected by Zhang Xueyou, who was focusing on music at the time.
But I didn't think about it, not to mention the popularity of "Infernal Affairs", and even swept the major film festivals in Asia, it was like winning the award softly, but it made Zhang Xueyou envious, and I regretted more or less refusing Lu Deshuang's invitation in my heart.
However, Zhang Xueyou can have today's status, and he is not a person who feels sorry for himself, no, at this time, Cheng Kexin came to the door, took the script of "If Love", and wanted to invite Zhang Xueyou out of the mountain, so that Zhang Xueyou, who happened to have this thought, immediately agreed after reading the script.
Anyone who knows Cheng Kexin knows that he is best at making literary films with urban themes, so when he is pulling investment, no one is always optimistic about his films, and Cheng Kexin is also the kind of person who is dictatorial, the kind of director who wants absolute right to speak, which leads to the financiers who are willing to invest money, and because of this, they can't talk about it in the end.
In the end, when there was no choice, Zhang Xueyou thought of Lu Deshuang, so he brought Cheng Kexin over to try.
"Brother Xueyou, I haven't seen you for a few months, how are you doing?"
Seeing Zhang Xueyou, Lu Deshuang had no frame at all, and stepped forward to give Zhang Xueyou a fierce hug, when they visited Anita Mui, the two had met, but at that time, everyone's thoughts were on Anita Mui, so there was not much contact.
"It's the same old look, it's definitely not as good as you, hug the beauty!"
The love affair between Lu Deshuang and Li Bingbing has been in an uproar, and the birth of online media, even Zhang Xueyou, who is in Xiangjiang, can know this information for the first time, but he has not forgotten his intention today, and introduced to Lu Deshuang: "Deshuang, I will introduce you to ......!" ”
"Brother Xueyou, where does Director Cheng Kexin still use you to introduce, don't you know that Sister Junru and I are good friends?"
Lu Deshuang let go of Zhang Xueyou, smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Cheng Kexin, invited the two to sit down in the living room, let Liu Dong serve two cups of tea, and chatted with each other for more than ten minutes.
"Deshuang, that's the case, Director Cheng has a new film, are you interested?"
"What category of movies, did you bring the script?"
"Here, of course!"
took the script from Cheng Kexin's hand, turned the first page, and saw the words "If Love" written on it, Lu Deshuang confirmed his previous guess, but Lu Deshuang was very curious, how could Cheng Kexin not be able to attract investment in the field of literary films?
Hearing Lu Deshuang's question, Cheng Kexin did not hide it, and said his conditions in 1510, to put it simply, Lu Deshuang is responsible for investing money, and he is solely responsible for the problem of film shooting, and Lu Deshuang does not need to care.
Well, no matter in his previous life or before, Lu Deshuang really hasn't cooperated with Cheng Kexin, and he really doesn't know that this short man is actually a dictator.
However, Lu Deshuang is not a good person, he can give up most of the rights, but Cheng Kexin must also make concessions, and he must use people in his company in terms of actors and behind-the-scenes staff.
If memory serves, the movie "If Love" seems to have won a lot of awards, and it is also a film that swept the existence of Asian film festivals like "Infernal Affairs".
Especially Zhou Xun, with this movie, won the double queen of the Treasure Island Golden Horse Award and the Xiangjiang Film Awards! (To be continued.) )
