Chapter 50: The Bet

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Heng was relieved, he still had a few songs in his hand that were of similar quality to "To Youth" and "Can I Hold You", and their influence in his previous life was almost the same, so he nodded and agreed immediately.

Liangkun's character is set as a sinister gang brother, and there may be a lot of indecent actions during the filming, Zhang Xueyou, as a film and television song superstar, doesn't care about it, "As long as you can write a good song, let me play a piece of wood, I have nothing to say." ”

Zhang Heng was slightly stunned, and a sense of reverence arose.

The two explained some matters to be paid attention to, and then walked out of the box one after another.

The empty hall, at this time, has sat down a lot of middle-aged men and women, each tea table is placed on the chessboard, as time goes by, the black and white chess pieces begin to be murderous with the person holding the son, the chess surface is full of gunsmoke, beacon fire.

What disappointed Zhang Heng was that the young man before was long gone at this time.

In addition to a cashier and a cleaner in the teahouse, there are no other service staff, and the shopkeeper Zhou Yongchun is often absent.

Because of the particularity of Yongchun Teahouse, most of the people sitting here are seniors and seniors in the Chinese entertainment industry, after Zhang Xueyou left the box, he didn't have time to wear sunglasses, and his conspicuous face was recognized by everyone in the hall at once, and they came up to say hello.

Zhang Xueyou had no choice but to stop, chatting politely with a few acquaintances with a smile, while Zhang Heng went to the teahouse counter to settle the bill.

"Isn't Brother Xue resting at home? Why do you have the leisure to come to the teahouse to read the script now? Oh, which Hollywood director did you get an invitation to? A middle-aged man with a little white head, holding a teacup, after taking a sip, suddenly saw the obvious script in Zhang Xueyou's hand, so he smiled kindly, "I said why I refused to star in my new film, it turned out that I looked down on my crew!" ”

Seeing this, several people next to them were all stunned, and their eyes at Zhang Xueyou were uncertain.

Zhang Xueyou rejected the new film directed by Mu Qinian?

Everyone is full of eyes, there is a good show to watch now, one is a popular superstar, the other is a veteran film director, if the two sides collide with sparks, not to mention the earthquake in the entertainment industry, but it is an excellent gossip, and there will inevitably be shocks in the circle.

Hearing this, Zhang Xueyou glanced at Mu Qinian, and said slowly: "Director Mu is serious, I have temporarily taken a fancy to a script in the past few days, and I will come over to talk about it when I see Hunting Xinxi, but Director Mu is really a casual letter, not in Yanjing to prepare a new drama, but ran to Yanhai to drink tea leisurely, it seems that he is very confident in the future of "Journey to the Empire", and I will congratulate Director Mu in advance on the success of the movie. ”

"Yellowstone Entertainment voted me 500 million!" Mu Qinian still had a gentle smile on his face and looked at Zhang Xueyou: "The big sale is certain." ”

Zhang Xueyou smiled and was noncommittal.

But some of the people around were taken aback.

This is a fierce news, Mu Qinian's new work is called "Journey to the Empire"?

I don't know where Mu Qinian got the investment, it was as high as 500 million!

This is one of the few huge investments in the history of Chinese films!

Coupled with a big director like Mu Qinian, this movie basically has no possibility of hitting the street!

After Zhang Heng paid the bill, he walked from the side, met with Zhang Xueyou, and looked at Mu Qinian, who seemed to be gentle, and was a little unhappy.

500 million investment to make a movie, what a big deal!

Zhang Heng thought stupidly, if he has 500 million, do you dare to invest it?

The answer is no! Except for special effects movies, Zhang Heng didn't plan to burn money in saliva dramas without nutrition.

Mu Qinian naturally noticed this young man, looked at it carefully, and felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while, until Zhang Xueyou smiled and introduced Zhang Heng to the old drama bones in other circles, Mu Qinian's brain flashed, and his face suddenly appeared, isn't this the miniseries director who has been famous on the Internet for a while?

Mu Qinian nodded, in the current entertainment industry, there are not many young people who know about Yongchun Teahouse.

Suddenly, Mu Qinian frowned slightly, a miniseries director and a sixth-level actor, meet here?

Zhang Xueyou still has a thick script in his hand......

This situation is naturally self-evident.

Mu Qinian's face was gloomy, Zhang Xueyou didn't come to star in his own big production, but went to take over the work of a rookie director, doesn't this show that he looks down on my new film?

Mu Qinian felt insulted, he has worked hard in the Chinese choreographer circle for nearly 20 years, Mu Qinian's experience is not rich, he has just turned 40 this year, but he has been in contact with movies since 20 years ago, during which he has filmed "Dawn", "Clues" and other films that have received many box office movies with a box office of over 100 million yuan only with medium system, and the reputation is very good, and the media is considered by the media to be the most likely contemporary director to win the Oscar after Li An, and Du Qifeng, Cheng Kaige, Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang and called the five major directors in China.

He prides himself on being in the film industry, with a transcendent identity, although he has a grudge against Zhang Xueyou's rejection of his films, he will not grudge with a god of songs, but Zhang Heng is different, a rookie director, Mu Qinian has not taken it seriously.

"Where is the little brother?" Mu Qinian smiled kindly.

Zhang Heng looked at Mu Qinian, and his heart moved.

There was silence for a moment, and when Mu Qinian couldn't laugh anymore, Zhang Heng suddenly smiled and said: "Like you, you can't be high or low, a little director!" ”

Mu Qinian's face froze.

The entire teahouse fell silent for a moment.

Everyone looked at Zhang Heng like a monster.

Zhang Xueyou admired Zhang Heng's courage a little.

In the Chinese entertainment industry, especially in the film industry, offending a big director is a very strict thing.

It's too late for insiders to stammer, how can they offend?

Many people hope to become a famous director, and then realize their dream of stardom.

This is something that almost all those working in the entertainment industry dream of. As long as you have a relationship with a famous director, you will have more exposure opportunities to appear.

But what's going on now?

A rookie director dares to choke with Mu Qinian?

Everyone was amazed.

Zhang Heng is just a fledgling young director, even if his works have achieved good results on the Internet, but in the face of Mu Qinian, whether in terms of seniority or prestige, Zhang Heng has no possibility of defeating Mu Qinian.

This kid has a broken head?

This is a question for all.

Looking at Mu Qinian's face full of black lines, Zhang Xueyou patted Zhang Heng's shoulder with the script in his hand at the right time, and said with a smile, "It's not big or small, don't say a word!" Let's go! ”

Although he knew that Brother Xueyou was relieving himself, Zhang Heng was not worried at all, glanced at Mu Qinian, sighed meaninglessly, turned around and left with Zhang Xueyou.

Gee?

What do you mean?

This voice with obvious contempt made Mu Qinian extremely angry in his heart, and he couldn't pretend anymore, regardless of the big word "quiet" posted on the wall in the tea hall, he slapped down the tea table.

The black and white chess on the table suddenly scattered everywhere, Mu Qinian ignored it, pointed at Zhang Heng's back, and said angrily: "You are a newcomer, do you have any seniority?" made a short film, not even a movie, so he called himself a director, and his tail was cocked to the sky? Good, good! I, Lao Mu, today I have seen what a young maniac is! ”

With Mu Qinian's roar, everyone's eyes focused in an instant, and the entire tearoom was suddenly audible.

Zhang Xueyou and Zhang Heng had already walked out of the teahouse and walked on the courtyard path of the teahouse, hearing Mu Qinian's roar, Zhang Heng paused.

On the side, Zhang Xueyou shook his head and signaled Zhang Heng not to be impulsive.

Zhang Heng thought about it, and seemed to feel that it was not enough to scold the street with this hypocritical grandson, so he didn't hear it, didn't look back, and continued to walk.

"Zhang Heng, if you bring seeds, do you dare to make a bet with me. Did Brother Snow Friends participate in your movie? Well, let's bet on whether this movie can box office over 100 million! The stake is 50 million! Also, I won't take advantage of you, lest others laugh at you, I'll add one more, if your movie box office can surpass my "Journey to the Empire" ......" Mu Qinian said loudly: "I will quit the film industry and stop making movies!" ”

There was an instant uproar in the tea hall!

Mu Qinian's bet is not high, the first one alone is 50 million, and the second one has unilaterally forced himself into a dead end!

Director Mu was angry and broke his brain?

People were shocked, but then everyone thought that this Zhang Heng was just a rookie director, even if his talent was sky-high, it was impossible to exceed 100 million at the box office!

Everyone is convinced of this, because in the history of Chinese films, no one's first movie can earn hundreds of millions of box office!

Li An can't, Zhang Yimou can't, and Mu Qinian can't!

The investment that a newcomer can bring in is very limited, and even if it is a particularly good script, it will not get much attention.

Of course, a good script won't let a newcomer spoil it!

This is the script of "Let's Get Married", although it is excellent, Yinggu Film and Television insists on finding a new director, and Zhang Heng is relegated to the vice
