As a close friend, Jin Qitai is the closest person to Yin Tianyou, not to mention that he is the closest to him in Hong Kong, so after busy with the preparation of the company, Yin Tianyou found time to travel with him in Hong Kong, went to Mong Kok, Causeway Bay, and went to the antique Hong Kong tea house, the starry Victoria Harbor.

As old classmates, the two played happily all day, and went to Hong Kong's most famous food street in the evening, and after dinner, Yin Tianyou took Jin Qitai to the sauna and said that he wanted him to lose weight.

After the sauna, the two did a formal medical massage, which made Yin Tianyou feel comfortable, and Jin Qitai was similar.

After pressing, Jin Qitai said refreshedly: "I didn't expect that the regular massage in Hong Kong is so comfortable, but it is much stronger than that in South Korea." ”

Yin Tianyou smiled and teased: "It's really unfair, your kid should be twice as expensive as me, you look at the meat on your body, it will take at least three times more effort for the master to massage you than to give me a massage." ”

The masseur on the side couldn't help but be amused by the two of them.

After the massage, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, according to Yin Tianyou's meaning, since he wanted to hand over the business in Hong Kong to Jin Qitai to take care of, then he would expand his contacts, so he called a group of friends in the Hong Kong film and television industry.

Everyone chartered a suite in KTV together, and everyone made a lively night together until it was more than three o'clock in the morning.

And this night, the director, producer, actor, martial artist and so on got to know a lot of new things, and Yin Tianyou was also quite rewarding.

On the one hand, it is to win over the relationship for itself, and on the other hand, it is also to open up the market for the company.

Therefore, the preparation of the company is completed. After the filming plan of "Journey to the West Sequel". Yin Tianyou gave the important task to Kim Qitai and the old monster Tsui Hark. Among them, Jin Qitai is mainly responsible for the day-to-day operation of the company. Tsui Hark is responsible for the main power of the crew, the most important of which is the casting right.

Over the years. The Chinese film and television industry has a not very healthy habit, but likes to shoehorn some related relationships into a certain film and television drama. or the artist you want to support, which often makes the director feel very troubled, but he is helpless.

In addition, many producers also like to appoint their own director and lead actor at the same time, without considering whether the cooperation between the two parties is appropriate.

It is precisely in order to avoid this kind of thing from happening that Yin Tianyou insisted on letting Tsui Hark build a group by himself, the reason for this is very simple, first, Tsui Hark's status in the Chinese film industry is very important. Many companies want to give him some face; second, Tsui Hark has a wide network in the Chinese film industry, and casting is more convenient; Third, as we all know, he is a well-known technical controller, so he will not spend too much money on filming.

After handling these two things for the company, Yin Tianyou received the script for the sequel to Journey to the West handed in by the company's screenwriting department. This script was created by Tian Qiwen and seven or eight people in the crew, with the story written by Yin Tianyou as the theme, and then revised and improved separately. After carefully polishing some good and excellent bridges, this is the "beautiful product" that comes out.

At least in Tian Qiwen's opinion, this set of scripts is already perfect, and it meets the requirements put forward by Yin Tianyou.

Yin Tianyou is still very sure of the work ability of the screenwriting department. After all, this department has just been established, and there are many good works, but this "Journey to the West Sequel" is the first one that the company is preparing to shoot. No sloppiness.

It turns out that everything is Yin Tianyou's own thoughts.

Nowadays, scripts are written on a computer. Then use USB storage, and this "Journey to the West Sequel" is the same.

Yin Tianyou opens the UBS USB drive. I was greeted by a script called "Journey to the West".

Because he was afraid that he would become too critical because of his high expectations, Yin Tianyou deliberately ran to the Internet to read some very bad words, and then ran back to read the script.

At the beginning of the script, it was stated that it was adapted from the classic Chinese masterpiece "Journey to the West", and then it was stated that it was a sequel to "Journey to the West" in 2013.

Then, the plot of the story begins.

Yin Tianyou read it very carefully, originally he also had a part in this script, to be precise, it was repaired and perfected according to the story he conceived, so looking at the script, Yin Tianyou has a feeling of watching his children grow up, or rather, what came out of his hand was a yellow-haired little girl, and now she has become a beautiful big girl.

At least, Yin Tianyou feels "beautiful".

A good script is nothing more than three elements, the story must be twists and turns, the characters must be vivid, and then the style must be unique.

Hong Kong comedy follows a nonsensical style, but this style is no longer suitable in the Chinese film industry.

Then there is a grassy spoof style in the mainland, this style can be enjoyed for a while when the audience's appreciation level is not high, but with the development of China Entertainment, this kind of grassroots comedy has also gone offline, and then there is a sketch-style comedy like "The Breakup Master" being staged in the mainland, although the style is a little too, but it can earn some box office, but in Yin Tianyou's view, this way of smashing signboards to earn box office is not advisable, the audience can be fooled once, it is impossible to be fooled again and again.

Therefore, in Yin Tianyou's conception, the comedy mode of "Journey to the West Sequel" should be down-to-earth and full of connotation, too nonsensical, too spoofed, and a kind of "heartfelt laughter" in the style of watching mime.

Therefore, from the beginning, Yin Tianyou was afraid that Tian Qiwen would habitually package the Hong Kong nonsensical drama model and throw it to himself, after all, this is Xingye's model, and he wants to persuade Zhou Xingchi to do a good job with his model.

But to Yin Tianyou's surprise, Tian Qiwen didn't do this, maybe he had been with Zhou Xingchi for too long, or maybe he was doing a good job in this industry, he understood that nonsensical comedy was at the end of his rope, and even Xing Ye didn't bother to fry cold rice, so why should he throw it out to fool people, so he united with seven or eight screenwriters - these screenwriters are local to Hong Kong and new young talents from the mainland to create this new script together.

A script that can be laughed at with tears.

A poignant story from Journey to the West, but different from Journey to the West.

After reading this script, Yin Tianyou actually had the feeling of seeing "Journey to the West" again, that kind of yellow sand in the sky. Supreme Treasure said to Zixia: "Love you for 10,000 years".

Yin Tianyou took a deep breath and took his eyes off the computer screen. At the moment, he just wants to say to everyone, "This script is exactly what I want!" ”

……

After replying to the message to Tian Qiwen. highly praised their screenwriting department, saying that they were very satisfied with the script of this "Journey to the West Sequel", and then Yin Tianyou hurriedly asked someone to find Zhou Xingchi's whereabouts.

At this time, Zhou Xingchi was no longer in Xinghui Entertainment, but went to work in Bigao Group.

Helpless, Yin Tianyou had no choice but to go through various channels, and finally contacted the female secretary of Bigao Group Company and called her to confirm the time to meet Zhou Xingchi.

……

Yin Tianyou has always been careful, so when he met with Zhou Xingchi, he decided to take the old monster Tsui Hark and Tian Qiwen with him.

Anyway, this drama is to be filmed by Tsui Hark and Zhou Xingchi. Let's match them with the new CP first. As for Tian Qiwen, he has stayed by Zhou Xingchi's side for thirteen years, and with him, the atmosphere will be more harmonious, and it will be easier to grasp what Xing Ye likes and dislikes.

The agreed location was a luxury private room in a private place in Hong Kong, and when Yin Tianyou, Tsui Hark, and Tian Qiwen waited there for about three or four minutes, Stephen Chow, accompanied by bodyguards and secretaries, appeared in the box.

He wears a certain sports cap, which is held low by the brim. His black and white hair peeked out from under the brim of his hat, and his expression was the same as the last time he saw him at Tsui Hark's studio, looking a little tired.

To Yin Tianyou's surprise, before he saw Stephen Chow. Tian Qiwen has always maintained an extremely natural state, but after seeing Stephen Chow himself, he became a little nervous.

Think about it. I can understand it.

After all, the master and servant have been for more than ten years, and it is impossible for Tian Qiwen to see his former boss Zhou Xingchi as if nothing happened. What's more, Xing Ye is the legendary difficult to serve, and it is estimated that Tian Qiwen's life will not be easy for more than ten years. Now the conditioned reflex is highly tense.

But soon, this kind of reflexive tension disappeared, and it seemed that Tian Qiwen had come to his senses and understood his current identity, he was a person from Yin Tianyou's side, and he was no longer the ******** of Xing Ye.

In Yin Tianyou's opinion, it was right to bring Tian Qiwen over, and under Tian Qiwen's Zhang Luo, Xing Ye's favorite drink was arranged, as well as the most comfortable seat, which can be said to make Zhou Xingchi's whole person relaxed.

It wasn't until Yin Tianyou and Stephen Chow greeted each other that everyone's talks officially began.

Yin Tianyou took out the script, handed it to Stephen Chow, and said, "I made a special appointment with Xing Ye this time because there is a script I want you to read in particular." ”

Stephen Chow took the script with a little surprise, looked at the name, and then handed it directly to the secretary next to him without turning over the contents. The secretary opened the public bag and put it in.

saw that he put it in the public bag without looking at it, which made Yin Tianyou feel a little disappointed. At this moment, all the rhetoric that I had thought of was useless. Yin Tianyou could only think of it temporarily: "I know that this sequel may infringe on Xingye's copyright, but the script is really good, you can take a look." The most important thing is that I am very sincere to complete this work with you, as for the amount of investment, I may not have made it clear last time, it is not thirty or forty million yuan, but US dollars. “

These words made Zhou Xingchi's expression move, and his eyes involuntarily glanced at Yin Tianyou.

Zhou Xingchi usually doesn't like to watch gossip news, and he doesn't pay much attention to the affairs of the entertainment industry, so he doesn't know about Yin Tianyou's recent purchase of a luxury yacht in Hong Kong, and if he knew, his expression would not be so surprised.

40 million US dollars, about 250 million yuan, he will still calculate this account, although for the current rising China Entertainment market, this money is not too much, but it is not a lot. At least Zhou Xingchi clearly knows that at present, there are many investments and huge Chinese films, saying that the investment is three or four billion, but in fact, there is a lot of water, and it is good to be able to really invest half of it.

Yin Tianyou took in Zhou Xingchi's surprise and knew that this trick was successful, people said that Zhou Xingchi "loves money", it seems to be true, and being able to operate so much money to film is an irresistible temptation for any director and producer.

Yin Tianyou made persistent efforts, "Now we have established a company in Hong Kong, which operated under the name of JYP branch in the early stage, but now it has officially changed its name to 'Tianyi Media', which means Zhou Tianyi, and I hope to be able to make great achievements in the future." “

Finally, Zhou Xingchi spoke, "Mr. Yin, if I remember that you are Korean, why are you so keen on Chinese-language movies?" “

Yin Tianyou smiled slightly, "Mr. Zhou, you are wrong. That's right, I'm from South Korea, but I'm a native Chinese, like you, I also like Bruce Lee, I grew up watching Hong Kong movies, I also pay attention to the Chinese entertainment market, and most importantly, I have the same dragon blood as you! “

"Because of this, we have so much in common, that I sincerely invite you to join our company's drama and work with director Tsui Hark, he films, you are the executive producer, I operate fully behind the scenes, and of course, if you don't mind, I can also play a role in the play...... Together, we can create the best work. “

Listening to Yin Tianyou explain that he was Chinese, the resistance in Zhou Xingchi's heart weakened. Zhou Xingchi has been Bruce Lee's idol since he was a child, and Bruce Lee's biggest influence on him is that he is proud of the Chinese and proud of the descendants of the dragon, whether it is his filming of "Tangshan Big Brother", or "Jingwumen", or "Raptors Crossing the River", he has created a self-improving Chinese image.

What's more, Bruce Lee himself is also Chinese.

Looking at Yin Tianyou in front of him again, Zhou Xingchi suddenly felt much more pleasing to the eye.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Xingchi began to ask, "I don't know if it's inconvenient to ask about the size of your company?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Yin Tianyou knew that he was starting to be interested, and was about to answer, Tian Qiwen had already taken over, "At present, Tianyi Media is not big, and investing hundreds of millions of dollars at once is very stressful for us...... However, the general manager of our company, that is, Mr. Yoon Cheon-woo, he is the most well-known big star in Korea, a big director, and a representative of JYP Company, the chairman of the entertainment group, it can be said that he is strong, talented, and most importantly, all the investment projects he handles are not profitable. ”

Tian Qiwen said, as if he didn't care, he added, "It can be said that he is the god of entertainment in Korean entertainment, and he is also determined to enter China Entertainment this time." ”

At this moment, Zhou Xingchi's mood is very strange, Tian Qiwen used to be his person, and he was his most trusted and most important henchman, known as the ******** of Xinghui Company, loyal to himself, many times he showed admiration for his talent, and occasionally when he looked at himself, his eyes were hot.

But such a person is praising another person unscrupulously at the moment, and even his eyes are even hotter than when he looked at himself before.

For a while, Zhou Xingchi was a little jealous of Yin Tianyou.

After following himself for thirteen years, is it better to follow this person for thirteen days? (To be continued.) )
