Chapter 327: Headache
Chen Jie hung up the phone and began to rub his temples, I have to say that Wang Jing's annoying kung fu is really too high, Chen Jie's resistance is so good that he has a headache!
Zhao Yuzhi saw Chen Jie sitting by the phone rubbing his temples, walked to Chen Jie's skills, and gently began to help Chen Jie rub it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info because Chen Jie often massages her, Zhao Yuzhi has learned a little.
When Zhao Yuzhi's fingers touched Chen Jie, the familiar touch let Chen Jie know that it was Zhao Yuzhi, and he was about to speak, but Zhao Yuzhi said first
"Don't move, I'll give you a massage and see how successful you have been when I learn you!"
Chen Jie didn't say anything after hearing Zhao Zhizhi's words, and closed his eyes to enjoy the service of Zhao Zhizhi's jade hand.
"How?" After a while, Zhao Yuzhi asked while helping Chen Jie gently rub his temples.
"Applejack saw your sad face, did something happen?" Zhao Yuzhi asked in Chen Jie's arms.
Zhao Yuzhi watched Chen Jie make a phone call for more than half an hour, and after hanging up the phone, she rubbed her head with a sad face, thinking that something had happened to the war between Longteng and Wireless! Everyone knows that Longteng Pictures is the foundation of Chen Jie, and if something really happens, it will be too big a blow to Chen Jie's career. How did she know that Chen Jie was annoyed by Wang Jing and had a headache!
After Chen Jie heard Zhao Yuzhi's words, he thought of what Wang Jing complained about on the phone. Said with a frown
"It's not all Brother Xiang! "Flower Heart" will be painted in two days, and the box office of Brother Xiang's movie has only exceeded 7 million so far, and the attendance rate is less than 50%, so it is basically impossible to break 10 million. So you just complained to me on the phone! Sister Zhi, you also know how annoying it is for Brother Xiang to complain, I just heard him complain for more than half an hour! ”
Zhao Yuzhi heard that it was not because of Long Teng, and the heart that was hanging finally let go. When he heard Chen Jie say that Wang Jing was complaining, Wang Jing's somewhat complaining and chattering appearance appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help laughing.
"It turned out to be Ah Xiang!" Zhao Yuzhi said with a smile.
"Isn't that him! My head is going to be big when he nags! Chen Jie complained.
But then again, it's no wonder that Ah Xiang feels uncomfortable, after all, Ah Xiang is the first director to work with you. But it's true that among all the directors you work with, the only one who doesn't have a box office of more than 10 million. The media said a lot of unpleasant things because of this, and I think Ah Xiang is also in a hurry to make a movie to prove himself because of this! Zhao Yuzhi said.
"I can understand Brother Xiang's feelings, but this doesn't prove that Brother Xiang is worse than others! Let's take this "Flower Heart" as an example, with an investment of less than 1.5 million, the box office has exceeded 7 million. By the time the next draw, 8 million shouldn't be a problem. This achievement has already embarrassed most directors in Hong Kong! Chen Jie said.
"Ajie, you're right, if this is in the Shaw Brothers, maybe Ah Xiang will be treated as a treasure. But it's different in Longteng! Since the establishment of Longteng, there has not been a movie with a box office of less than 20 million! And this time, Ah Xiang's film didn't even reach 10 million, and everyone would talk about him! After all, the gap is too big! Zhao Yuzhi said with a smile.
Chen Jie also fell into contemplation after listening to Zhao Yuzhi's words, and in Zhao Yuzhi's words, Chen Jie found another drawback of Longteng Pictures. That is, the starting point of Longteng is too high. Although this will allow Longteng to rise rapidly, it is not particularly beneficial to the long-term development. Just like this "Flower Heart", it was originally a good movie, but it will be criticized by reporters! Because the starting point of Longteng is too high, the Hong Kong movie box office of more than 20 million Longteng itself accounts for more than half. At this time, Longteng had only produced and released a total of five movies! And Wang Jing's "Flower Heart" is also the only movie in Longteng with a box office of less than 20 million, and it has not even exceeded 10 million, so the pressure on Wang Jing is definitely not small.
Don't look at Wang Jing's usual big swagger, but in fact, he still has some ideas. In Wang Jing's opinion, the movies he made can have no praise or awards. But the box office must not be lost! Wang Jing believes that as long as it is a movie that loses money, no matter how many honors he can get, it will be a failure. But the problem is that the box office is not strong now, which is really a blow to Wang Jing.
I have to find a way to make Wang Jing angry! Otherwise, this kind of pressure has been pressing on Wang Jing and has a great impact on Wang Jing.
"Applejack, what do you want?" Zhao Yuzhi saw that Chen Jie frowned and didn't speak, so she asked.
"I'm thinking that I should prepare a good book for Brother Xiang to let him vent his evil anger!" Chen Jie said, "Originally, I prepared a good book for Brother Xiang, but unfortunately the protagonist here was designed for Brother Fa, and until now, Brother Fa has not agreed to sign our Longteng!" ”
"I see!" Zhao Yuzhi said with a smile: "Originally, if there was no war between you and wireless, maybe I still have some way to do this." But now if Ah Fa signs a contract with you, it is tantamount to offending wireless. After all, it was wireless that made him popular. If Ah Fa came to sign a contract with Longteng at this time, he would be said to be ungrateful! ”
"That's exactly what I feel a headache for!" Chen Jie said, "If there is no Fa Ge, this movie will definitely not be made!" So I have to write a script for Brother Xiang! But I don't know what to write for a while! ”
In fact, when Chen Baixiang acquired 18% of the shares of wireless, Chen Jie was already relying on whether to start filming a new drama! After all, Longteng Pictures has no shooting plan for the entire second half of the year, and if Chen Jie's plan is successful. If you can really win the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, after the name change, you need a big drama to make it famous. But Chen Jie never thought about what to shoot.
According to Longteng's current structure, the best way is to make a comedy of Zhou Xingchi. After all, Longteng now has Zhou Xingchi and signed Wu Mengda. and Chen Baixiang, the general manager, can also make a cameo. There is also Wang Jing, a comedy director, so this is the most convenient for the current Long Teng to shoot Zhou Xingchi's comedy. It's a pity that Chen Jie didn't want to reuse Zhou Xingchi so early. After all, Zhou Xingchi's character flaws are too big. Chen Jie has no confidence to change Zhou Xingchi. If Zhou Xingchi is enabled so early, when he becomes famous, who can suppress him with Zhou Xingchi's character! It is necessary to establish the prestige of several major directors of Longteng before Zhou Xingchi can be used! Chen Jie is not like Zhou Xingchi who suddenly picked on something in the middle of the movie in the future, in Chen Jie's opinion, it is better to find a newcomer with such a Zhou Xingchi! To be honest, Chen Jie really looked at the identity of Zhou Xingchi's actor, but how many years later did he look at Zhou Xingchi's identity as a director! This is far more attractive to Chen Jie than his identity as an actor!
If Zhou Xingchi is not used, Chen Jie can't think of what to shoot with Longteng's current situation for a while! It's okay if you let Lin Lingdong or Du Qifeng guide, but it's a little difficult to let Wang Jing guide, after all, Longteng really doesn't have any very good comedians except for Zhou Xingchi! Wu Mengda is one, and Xu Jinjiang is one, but if the two of them take the lead, Chen Jie really doesn't have much confidence.
Just as Chen Jie was pondering, Hongzai rubbed his eyes that had just woken up and walked in front of the two. I have to say that the little guy inherited his mother's excellent genes, although he is still a little sleepy-eyed, but he is indescribably cute! And Chen Jie suddenly thought of what to shoot after seeing Hongzai!
After making a decision, Chen Jie's mood improved, hugged Hongzai and said, "Hongzai, let's go out together to see our new home, okay?" ”
After Hongzai listened to Chen Jie's words, all his hazy sleepy eyes opened, and he clapped his hands again and again.
Zhao Yuzhi didn't say anything when she saw this scene, she only felt excited at this time.
Chen Jie went back to the room with Hongzai and Zhao Yuzhi to change clothes, and after a while, the family of three said hello to Zhao's mother, and walked out of the house neatly dressed. (To be continued.) )
