Chapter 145 "Ip Man" mainland trip

Although Shao Daheng came forward to guarantee Zhang Yi for the loan, the amount of 1.5 billion yuan was too large, and it would not be possible to receive it in a day or two. However, Zhang Yi is not in a hurry, not to mention that he still has some funds in hand at this time.

After all, after a competition, there was a one-time income of nearly 300 million funds, plus some income from movies and other industries. Although it took a lot of money, just like taking revenge on the big drug lord in Thailand and Vietnam, he paid a one-time bonus of 50 million, but he was not short of money.

Two days after Cheng Long's birthday banquet ended, Zhang Yi had already written the script of "Breaking Baby", and had a detailed discussion with Yuan Heping on the style in the movie.

As an action designer, there is no doubt that Yuan Heping is extremely good. However, as a director, Zhang Yi is still a little uneasy. Especially a movie like "Breaking Bad" that can't be said to be an action movie entirely. Moreover, the success of the whole movie does not depend on the action.

The temptation of Zhang Yi's movie is too great, and there are not many people who can refuse, at least Weng Meiling is not among them. What's more, no matter how famous the actors in the TV circle are, there are definitely few who don't aspire to the big screen.

What can really reflect the appeal of an actor is undoubtedly the movie, not the TV. No matter how high the TV ratings are, they are not as direct as the box office of the movie. After all, you don't need money to watch TV, but you do to watch movies.

Weng Meiling agreed to star in "Thunderbolt Baby", and her schedule naturally needs to be adjusted. And with Zhang Yi coming forward, Shao Daheng naturally would not refuse. What's more, Weng Meiling signed a long-term contract with Wireless and starred in Zhang Yi's movie, which is beneficial and harmless for Wireless, and Shao Tycoon is naturally happy to do so.

Just like a few wireless actors who have starred in Zhang Yi's movies, although they are not as good as the first-line stars of wireless, they have directly changed from a trick to a second-tier or even close to a first-line actor, which is also a kind of wealth for wireless.

"Sixth uncle, why are you looking at me? I feel like I'm panicking! Zhang Yi looked at Shao Daheng with a weird smile and said.

""Resident Evil" is a movie with the heroine as the first protagonist, which is different from traditional movies, and whether it can be more accepted by the audience still needs to be known after its release. Where do you have the confidence that "A Chinese Ghost Story" is like this, and now you are investing in the filming of "Breaking Girl", and the investment is still small? Shao Tycoon then said.

"Hehe, now that feminism is on the rise, and the status of women is getting higher and higher, what's wrong with actresses supporting a movie?" Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Not necessarily, I still have a dream of many female fans?" ”

"A female fan's dream?" Shao Daheng was puzzled, thought about it, looked at Zhang Yi, and said, "You mean that female audiences like to watch such films with female violence plots, which can vent their high demands for self-strength?" ”

"Sixth Uncle is wise!" Zhang Yi gave a thumbs up and said to Shao Daheng, "Think about it, when the man clenched his right hand into a fist and shouted: I tell you, don't be too hard!" I saw a contemptuous smile on the corner of the woman's mouth, and suddenly a high swing of legs, high heels with the wind, increased strength, and gave the man a strong mouth. Then, with a look of disdain on his face, he lifted the high leg that had not yet been put down in front of him, gently blew the dust off the upper of the shoe, and in the silence and 100% surprise of all the people who watched the excitement, what an attractive scene it would be to turn around and leave! Women don't need to live on men. And movies, not only men can hold up! ”

Shao Daheng nodded, he had to admit that the status of women is indeed getting higher and higher now. Moreover, it is not impossible for a woman to hold up a movie. They have a different kind of advantage.

Male viewers are easily seduced by women's looks, boobs, thighs, and so on. Female audiences, on the other hand, are easily attracted by women's independence, freedom, happiness, and so on.

"Sixth uncle, you came to me, wouldn't you mean this?" Zhang Yi said, "You know, I've been very busy lately! ”

"Yindu Organization Co., Ltd., you know, right?" Shao Daheng then spoke.

Zhang Yi nodded, Yindu Organization Co., Ltd. was established in 82 and was established by the merger of "Great Wall Film Production Co., Ltd.", "Feng Film Co., Ltd.", "Xinlian Film Co., Ltd.", and "Zhongyuan Film Co., Ltd.". It is to undertake the promotion and distribution of film and television dramas in the mainland, Hong Kong and overseas. The "Shaolin Temple" trilogy is out of the company.

And Zhang Yi knows that Yindu is actually a large state-owned film enterprise.

"Mr. Liao and I contacted me and wanted to introduce a few Hong Kong films for distribution in the mainland." Shao Tycoon looked at Zhang Yi and then said.

When Zhang Yi heard this, a flash of joy flashed in his eyes. Mr. Liao, in Shao Daheng's mouth, is naturally the chairman of Yindu Institution. And if you talk to yourself about this, you must have something to do with the movies you introduced. Zhang Yi has always wanted to open up the mainland market, but unfortunately there is no way. Now when I hear Shao Tycoon talk about it, it is like falling asleep, so I send the pillow.

"They've got a glimpse of my movie?" Zhang Yi then asked, seeing Shao Daheng nodding, and then asked, "If I guessed correctly, it's "Ip Man", right?" ”

Zhang Yi has filmed and written a lot of movies, starting from "Baby Zhiduoxing", the screenwriter has "Baby Zhiduoxing" and its sequel, "Clever Trick Five Lucky Stars" and the sequel, "Plan A", "Police Story", "Mr. Zombie", "God of Gamblers", "Gambling Saint", "The True Color of Heroes", etc., and several are still filming. The screenwriter and director only has "Nightclub", "Crazy Racing", "Ip Man", and the upcoming "Resident Evil".

Counting back and forth, only "Ip Man" is the most in line with the requirements of today's mainland.

Shao Daheng nodded, not the slightest surprise at Zhang Yi's guess.

"Actually, Mr. Liao still hopes to cooperate with you to shoot a movie in the mainland?" Shao Tycoon then said.

"Does Uncle Sixth think it's appropriate now?" Zhang Yi thought about it and then said.

"Are you worried about Taiwan?" Shao Daheng naturally knew the reason why Zhang Yi asked so.

Zhang Yi nodded.

"I heard that in the "Changing Face" co-produced by you and Xinyicheng, director Wu Yusen chose two protagonists, one is Zhou Runfa, and the other is Liang Jiahui, who was banned by the Taiwan authorities because he went to the mainland to shoot a movie?" Shao Tycoon smiled and said.

Zhang Yi looked at Shao Daheng and didn't know what he was bringing up this matter for. filmed "Changing Face", Wu Yusen chose Liang Jiahui, Zhang Yi did not have any disagreement, after all, he also felt that Liang Jiahui was very suitable. It was because of this that Zhang Yi and Lei Juekun also had some relationship for this to solve the matter of Liang Jiahui's blocking.

Of course, Zhang Yi has nothing to do with Taiwan now, but he plays a better role than Lei Juekun. Because, he asked Xue Lianxin, the great master of national art in Taiwan, to help. And many of Xue Lianxin's disciples are high-ranking officials of the Taiwan authorities. One of them, just the top of the Cultural Bureau.

When the Liang family was unblocked, it was when "The True Colors of Heroes" and "Little Brother Ma" swept through Taiwan, and Zhou Yunfa and Dillon took him to the dinner of the Taiwan Cultural Bureau. As for what to do during the period, Zhang Yi does not know. But now, Lei Juekun, the big boss behind the scenes of the new art city, and Zhang Yi asked Xue Lianxin to come forward, it is naturally much simpler than in the parallel space of the previous life.

"What does Uncle Six want to say?" Zhang Yi asked.

"Liang Jiahua unsealed, I heard that you played a big role?" Shao Tycoon then said.

"Master Xue Lianxin has a disciple who is a senior member of the Taiwan Cultural Bureau." Zhang Yi said simply.

"Cross-strait relations are still a bit stiff. But you are different from Liang Jiahui, even if you co-produce a movie with the mainland, they will not ban you. Moreover, it can't be blocked! You're not a simple filmmaker right now. Moreover, most of your movies are co-produced with other film companies, and the interests involved are too wide, and there is undoubtedly a lot of resistance to banning you. Of course, the movie you co-produced with the mainland is probably not released in Taiwan. But there is certainly no problem with other movies! Shao Daheng said, then smiled, looked at Zhang Yi, and said, "How big the mainland market is, I think you know better than me, no matter how low his ticket price is, but a "Shaolin Temple" can achieve a box office of hundreds of millions, which is enough to explain a qiē." ”

"Uncle Six means to let me promise them?" Zhang Yi looked at Shao Daheng and said. Zhang Yi naturally knew what he said, and entering the mainland market was something that Zhang Yi dreamed of. The Hong Kong market is too small, and if you want to make a difference in film, you must rely on the mainland market.

"Huh!" Shao Daheng smiled, but didn't say anything more, obviously he knew that Zhang Yi had already made a decision in his heart from the beginning.
