601 [Comrades from the mainland]
Guan Zhilin saw Wang Zijun's wry expression, and suddenly smiled: "Why are you looking at me like this, just kidding." No sense of humor at all. ”
Wang Zijun rubbed his face helplessly and said, "Don't make this kind of joke, it's easy to get off the gun." ”
"If you go off the fire, you go off the fire, who is afraid." After all, Guan Zhilin hadn't been in love for a long time at this time, and she was a little embarrassed when she said this, and she hurriedly turned her attention to the fried egg in front of her.
Wang Zijun didn't want to dwell on this topic, and said: "Seeing that you are so idle, Tsui Hark is about to make a big production, why don't you try it." ”
When it came to filming, Guan Zhilin became interested and asked, "Big production?" How big. ”
"At least a budget of 15 million to 20 million Hong Kong dollars." Wang Zijun said.
"That's a big production, I'll go find him tomorrow." Guan Zhilin has not been making movies from TV series for a long time, and she is not very popular now, so she naturally wants to borrow a blockbuster movie to become popular.
Wang Zijun can roughly guess her thoughts, although "New Shu Mountain Swordsman" is not good at the box office, it has a good effect on supporting actors. In another time and space, Lin Qingxia successfully landed in Hong Kong from Taipei with this movie, and Li Saifeng also rose to prominence because of this movie.
In fact, if "New Shushan Swordsman" is done well, it can really make a lot of money at the box office. It's a pity that Tsui Hark's directing skills at this time are far from being as perfect as when he filmed "A Chinese Ghost Story" in the future, the whole film is too personal and artistic, the editing is so fast that the audience can't keep up with the director's thinking, and the rhythm of the plot is extremely poor, it seems that the whole film is "gaochao", and it seems that there is no "gaochao" in the whole film, and the final battle of the tiger and snake tail makes people want to cry without tears.
In Wang Zijun's opinion, if "Shushan" is made into two episodes, or into a trilogy, perhaps the effect of this movie will be much better.
It's just that in this way, the entire budget is at least more than 50 million Hong Kong dollars, unless Zou Wenhuai is crazy, no matter how generous he is, he will not take so much money to toss Tsui Hark.
After breakfast, Wang Zijun drove to Jiayi TV Station, and Guan Zhilin followed up like a fart, saying that he was going to the TV station to play with old friends.
The zombie TV series that Lin Zhengying came back to shoot last year has been produced, and the final name of the drama is "Ghost Hunter". is obviously catching zombies, why did the name change to ghost hunting, Wang Zijun doesn't understand, anyway, he has never participated in the entire TV series, and he has never heard of it in his previous life, it is an absolutely original TV series.
Recently, TVB's "God of Wealth" has good ratings, and Jiashi wants to use this zombie TV series to fight back. As for Leigh's TV station, it has long been a thing of the past, and now it has been renamed Asia TV.
When Lishi fell into a financial crisis last year, Wang Zijun also ran back to prepare to make a move, but it was too late. That Boss Qiu had already secretly bought more than 30% of the shares in the hands of British shareholders, and was bargaining with the Australian consortium, and Wang Zijun had to stop when he saw this.
When he arrived at the TV station, Wang Zijun went straight upstairs, but saw Guan Zhilin also follow the elevator and asked, "Aren't you looking for your friend?" ”
"Help my dad get paid, do you think I'm really okay to come here!" Guan Zhilin gave him a blank look and said.
Wang Zijun was about to close the elevator door, when a figure suddenly broke in, holding a bun and kept saying, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please wait a minute." ”
When this person looked up, Wang Zijun realized that it was Stephen Chow who came in.
"Wow, the chairman and Miss Guan are also there!" Stephen Chow also recognized Wang Zijun and Guan Zhilin, and immediately restrained, the smile on his face was a little stiff, and he consciously took a step back to the side.
"Hello!" Wang Zijun nodded at Stephen Chow and asked, "You are also an employee of Jiashi?" ”
Stephen Chow replied: "I am a student of the training class, and I am also working part-time in the production department. ”
Wang Zijun found that Xingye, who would carry out nonsense to the end on the screen in the future, seemed to be a little unfluent in speaking, so he stopped asking him.
Stephen Chow actually wanted to enter TVB, last year's student dragged his friend Tony Leung to sign up for the wireless training class, but Tony Leung was admitted, but he brushed it off and had to switch to Jiashi.
In addition, Huang Yuehua is also in Jiashi now, and I don't know who Weng Meiling should star in the 83 version of "Shooting the Condor" with in the second half of the year.
Guan Zhilin and Stephen Chow got out of the elevator to run errands, and suddenly a middle-aged man in a blue tunics suddenly came in halfway.
This person is very thin, wears a pair of thick bottle-bottom eyes, and as soon as he opens his mouth, he frightened Wang Zijun: "Comrade, may I ask how to get to the office of the director of this TV station?" ”
"Friends from the mainland?" Wang Zijun asked.
"Yes, the contemptible is wide. Bi Wenyan of East TV Station. The man suddenly remembered something as he spoke, and after digging into his briefcase for a long time, he finally found a piece of paper, "This is a contemptible business card." ”
Wang Zijun looked at the business card and found that this person's position was wide. The deputy head of the TV crew of East TV found it interesting and said, "Come with me, I'll take you there." By the way, we are here to deal with the general manager of the TV station. ”
"Oh, no wonder I couldn't ask for directions." Bi Wenyan suddenly realized.
"Is there anything wrong with you?" Wang Zijun said, "I can also make some decisions about the TV station." ”
"Who are you?" Bi Wenyan saw that Wang Zijun was young, and he was a little suspicious of his position.
Wang Zijun said: "I am one of the shareholders of this TV station, well, you know the shareholders, right? ”
"I know, that's what the boss meant." Bi Wenyan hurriedly stretched out his hand to shake hands with Wang Zijun, and said with a smile, "It turns out that you are the boss, and I am fortunate to be lucky." ”
"Now there's something I can tell you." Wang Zijun said with a smile.
Bi Wenyan said: "I am Guang. East TV sent to Hong Kong to inspect TV dramas. ”
"Inspecting TV dramas?" Wang Zijun didn't understand what there was to investigate in the TV series.
"That's right." Bi Wenyan explained, "Isn't the mainland saying that it wants to reform and open up, and the comrades of our TV station naturally have to respond to the call and go out to see the outside world." Last year, the Central Television Station introduced the book "Blood Suspicion", which achieved a great response. We are wide. Dongtai can't go to the capital, but it can't be left behind, so I came to Hong Kong to have a look. ”
"You want to bring in a TV series?" Wang Zijun asked.
Bi Wenyan nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I just went to Asia TV over there, and they said that the boss didn't have time to see me, or your comrades here have a good attitude." ”
Asia Television? The new boss Qiu over there only got 5 percent of the shares, and last year he jumped more than half of the talents, and the TV station is now in a mess and is being integrated, how can he have the heart to see him.
Wang Zijun remembers widely. The first Hong Kong-made drama introduced by Dongtai was "Huo Yuanjia", which quickly became popular among thousands of viewers in the mainland, which is exactly what ATV is doing. Now wide. It's strange that the people from Dongtai didn't talk to ATV and ran to Jiashi.
Wang Zijun didn't have anything important to deal with anyway, so he simply chatted with comrades from the mainland and took him to the film library.
There is not much work in the film library, and an employee is dozing off to make up for sleep, and Wang Zijun quietly wakes him up. The employee was startled, and when he saw that it was Wang Zijun, he immediately stood up and greeted: "Morning, chairman!" ”
Wang Zijun said: "It's not too early, find out all the good TV dramas in Taiwan, this mainland comrade wants to buy films." "Yes, I'll find it right away!" The employee was hit by Wang Zijun when he was sleeping, and he was already scared into a cold sweat, and immediately worked hard.
One after another TV series were taken out, Wang Zijun did not introduce the TV series to Bi Wenyan, but asked: "Team Leader Bi, are there any taboos for you to introduce TV series?" ”
"Taboo?" Bi Wenyan thought for a while, "Of course this anti-D and anti-society is not good, the content of the TV series must be positive, praising a beautiful life, praising love and friendship." ”
"I still want to remind you that I'm Taiwan. Wanren, it's okay for you to buy a film from me, right? Wang Zijun said.
"Boss Wang, aren't you from Hong Kong?" Bi Wenyan was taken aback.
"It's not." Wang Zijun shook his head.
"Then I'm going to ask the upper authorities for instructions." Bi Wenyan said.
"Please, there's a phone outside." Wang Zijun said.
"Wait a minute!" Bi Wenyan said and ran to make a call.
After more than ten minutes, Bi Wenyan came back with a smile and said to Wang Zijun: "No problem, as long as it is a TV series with healthy content." Platform. Bay or not China, you Taiwan. The book of Mr. Qiong Yao, a great writer in the bay, was sought after by many young people in the mainland last year. ”
Wang Zijun sweated wildly, Qiong Yao didn't matter whether she was a man or a woman for the time being, she could be in Taiwan. The authorities in the Bay have forbidden people on the island from publishing books on the mainland. Those Qiong Yao sold in the mainland, you don't have to think about it to know that it is pirated, and you didn't give Qiong Yao a penny.
Since there is no political problem, Wang Zijun does not want to discuss the issue of piracy with this comrade, so he pointed to his favorite "Shanghai Tang" and asked: "How about this "Shanghai Tang"? ”
Bi Wenyan looked at the synopsis of the series, shook his head and said: "This is not good, this one praises the gang's underworld forces, and the content is unhealthy." ”
Wang Zijun was speechless and said, "Then you can take your own time." ”
Bi Wenyan rummaged for a while, and was quickly attracted by the stills of "The Legend of the New Hundred Niangzi", and said after watching the introduction of the series: "Can I watch this TV series first?" ”
"Absolutely." Wang Zijun said and asked the staff to take out the master tape for screening.
The two TV series "Shanghai Tang" and "The Legend of the New White Lady", Wang Zijun sold them to Jiashi Pressure Library a long time ago, and now the copyright is in Jiashi.
"The Legend of the New White Lady" soon began to play on the TV, and after watching only the title, Bi Wenyan was fascinated by the never-before-seen magical mythological drama.
After watching an episode, Bi Wenyan sighed: "Chinese myths and stories still have to be done by the Chinese themselves." Last year, CCTV introduced "Journey to the West" in the book, and I almost dropped the TV when I saw it. ”
"Journey to the West?" Wang Zijun really hasn't seen that thing.
"Yes, Tang Seng has become a woman, Sun Wukong is a psychopath, don't you think this is a waste of a masterpiece?" Bi Wenyan said bitterly, "The comrades of the Central Television Station are also true, and the TV series of my friends are not all good, so if you don't take a closer look, you will take them back and broadcast them, and make a big joke in front of the people of the whole country." ”
