Chapter 374: The Ambition of the Second Daughter

When Xu Ke rushed to the crew of "A Chinese Ghost Story", Wang Zichuan was immersed in the gentle township, Zhou Hailin and Wang Guxian seemed to be in a competition, competing to please, one rubbing his shoulders and the other beating his legs, without showing jealousy at all.

"Mr. Wang, I'm sorry, I'm late!" Xu Ke heard Cheng Xiaodong say a rough idea, and immediately rushed to Wang Zichuan.

Wang Guxian and Zhou Hailin blushed shyly, and Wang Guxian got up from the ground and stood behind Wang Zichuan.

"Xu Ke, you've been busy lately?"

Xu Ke said with a smile: "I've been busy adapting a script recently, so I rarely come to the crew." ”

"Lao Xu, I didn't say you, the film studio has been open for less than half a year, and three films have been produced, so I really can't be idle!" After a pause, Wang Zichuan asked, "What type of script?" ”

Xu Ke said embarrassedly: "A film with the theme of the Republic of China." ”

"Shootout films?" Wang Zichuan frowned, the theme of the Republic of China is not popular in Hong Kong, unless giant companies such as Golden Harvest and Tengfei Entertainment can increase investment and make excellent films, just with Xu Ke's film studio, they can come up with a few dollars to make a film.

Xu Ke was even more embarrassed, and replied in a low voice: "It's an art film." ”

"Art films with the theme of the Republic of China?" Wang Zichuan's body straightened, this name is the horn of the street! In Hong Kong, art films and commercial films are simply two extremes, as long as the commercial film is decent, it will not lose money, and the art film must be a first-class achievement to achieve this, if you want to make money, unless you invite a big star to join, and it is a first-line superstar with strong box office appeal.

"The name of the novel is "Dao Ma Dan", the adaptation fee has been negotiated, and the script has been changed almost completely, just waiting for the selection of actors to start filming." Xu can see that Wang Zichuan has a gloomy face, and he has made the old stubborn mistake again, and he pointed out that "Dao Ma Dan" is about to start. The money has already been spent, and if you don't shoot, you're losing money.

"Sword and Horse"! Wang Zichuan regained a little confidence, he had heard of this film, a very famous film, but he had not seen this film.

"Lao Xu, since you want to shoot, let's shoot, next time the studio has a production plan, you must report it to the head office, otherwise you will break the sky. I won't approve it either. ”

Wang Zichuan once again gave Xu Ke a preventive shot, thinking of Li Lianjie a few days ago, which made him realize that Xu Ke is still useful, and martial arts films will soon set off a wave of high. tide, Xu Ke is the leader of this trend.

Xu Ke showed a childlike smile and decided to return the favor, saying, "Thank you, Mr. Wang, the starring actor of the film still needs you to bother more." ”

Wang Zichuan said: "You take the time to send the script, and I'll see who is suitable." ”

Xu Ke nodded like a chicken pecking rice. As long as Wang Zichuan agrees, the other party must choose a big star, and he puts down a big stone in his heart, it seems that Tengfei Entertainment is much freer than Xinyicheng. In Xinyi City, Lei Juekun will never let him shoot "Dao Ma Dan".

Zhou Hailin has a new understanding of Wang Zichuan's authority, and in her mind, director Cheng Xiaodong is already a great man. In the crew, the producers are all willing to bow down, but Cheng Xiaodong came to Xu Ke. Just like a three-year-old child, he will do whatever Xu Ke says, and Xu Ke's position is much higher.

When she is free, Zhou Hailin often compares Xu Ke with Wang Zichuan, and always comes to the same conclusion, but today completely subverts her cognition, and the current Xu Ke is no different from Cheng Xiaodong! is still a lot more restrained, how high is Ah Chuan's status?

Zhou Hailin, who had just entered the industry for less than half a year, was completely confused, and the high-flying Cheng Xiaodong and the unfathomable Xu Ke all fell at the foot of Wang Zichuan.

After negotiating the matter of "Sword and Horse", Wang Zichuan instructed: "You should come to the crew more in the future, Cheng Xiaodong is a thoughtful director, and his style is too domineering, which is not good, I don't want an excellent film to be ruined because of the disagreement between the director and the producer." ”

Xu Ke said tentatively: "Mr. Wang refers to the problem of the crew's funds?" ”

Wang Zichuan nodded and sighed: "An excellent director has to look down on the overall situation, and it is okay to spend money, but spending money lavishly is the problem." ”

Xu Kedao: "What Mr. Wang said is, but I think Cheng Xiaodong is the most suitable director for "A Chinese Ghost Story", and many ideas have surpassed the first part. ”

"Okay, you don't have to speak for him, you New Wave directors, shouting like Hollywood to learn, I can learn how people spend money, and when you have time in the future, you can go to Hollywood for a few months and see how people do it."

Wang Zichuan just germinated this idea not long ago, and Tengfei Entertainment has recruited many people who have returned from studying in the West, and they are full of vitality from top to bottom, which greatly makes up for the shortcomings of Tengfei Entertainment's lack of heritage.

Tengfei Entertainment, which has eaten the sweetness, naturally hopes to go further, and indirectly connect with Hollywood, and it has become an imminent matter to send a study abroad team.

"Studying in the U.S.?" Xu Ke looked at Wang Zichuan in surprise, this is the first time in the Hong Kong film industry.

Wang Zichuan said with a smile: "Yes, Tengfei Entertainment will announce the list soon, if you are interested, you can sign up, this selection is mainly for the two professions of director and photographer, and the company is responsible for the cost of a qiē in the United States." ”

Xu Ke squirmed: "But I'm afraid I don't have time for these two, the film studio has just been established, and several films are waiting to be released." ”

Wang Zichuan said: "It doesn't matter, I have already contacted a TV station in the United States, and every year I will send a batch, 3 to 5 people, and they will be responsible for reception." ”

Xu Ke suddenly realized that he had heard Shi Nansheng mention that Wang Zichuan had acquired an American TV station, and it seemed that this was also a plan that Tengfei Entertainment had long formulated.

It seems that large companies are still beneficial, Xu Ke has always advocated independent production, but he succumbed to Tengfei Entertainment because of financial problems, and now he is a little shaken in his ideas.

Wang Zichuan sent Xu Ke away, and Wang Guxian immediately said coquettishly: "Brother Achuan, I also want to study in the United States!" ”

"You? What are you doing in the United States? Wang Zichuan's eyes widened, because Wang Guxian's expression didn't look like a joke.

Wang Guxian said: "If you go to the United States to study acting, maybe you can open up the American market for Brother Achuan." ”

"No kidding!" Wang Zichuan pinched Wang Guxian's chin and explained: "Xiaoxian, your acting skills are not mature, if you want to go to Hollywood, you must at least make a name for yourself in Southeast Asia, so that Hollywood film companies will consider choosing you as the protagonist." ”

Wang Guxian said coquettishly: "Brother Achuan, you are so powerful, why don't you go to Hollywood to develop?" You can just take me with you. ”

Wang Zichuan said: "Come on, next year Tengfei Entertainment plans to produce a film and release it in the United States." ”

"Really?" Wang Guxian rippled with color.

Zhou Hailin is short of breath, Hollywood, that is the legendary film kingdom, the salary of a film is hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars, enough for her to shoot 500 films in Hong Kong.

Wang Zichuan said: "This is a company secret, don't tell it." ”

Wang Guxian nodded, and couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Achuan, how much do you plan to invest?" I heard that Golden Harvest Pictures has invested hundreds of millions of dollars, and so has the company, which has invested in several films in the past few years. ”

Wang Zichuan teased: "I don't plan to compare with them, this time the theme is a horror movie, with an investment of about 10 million." ”

Zhou Hailin said in a trembling voice: "10 million US dollars is not a lot, in Hong Kong it is 100 million Hong Kong dollars!" ”

"I'm talking about Hong Kong dollars!"

"Hong Kong dollars?"

Wang Guxian and Zhou Hailin were stunned together, 10 million Hong Kong dollars, that is called a Hollywood blockbuster? 10 million Hong Kong dollars is converted into US dollars, which is less than 1 million, and the salary is not enough to hire an actor.

"Brother Achuan, you don't have a fever, do you? A million-dollar Hollywood blockbuster? ”

Wang Zichuan said with a smile: "When the time comes, you will know, the rules in the United States are different from Hong Kong, where the theater chain adopts a buyout system, especially for foreign companies, unless you cooperate with them, such as Golden Harvest Pictures, but I am not used to this, I plan to set up a company in the United States to produce independently." ”

"But...... But is a million really enough? Wang is not interested in which method of cooperation to take.

Zhou Hailin didn't know how to do it, and when he heard that Wang Zichuan was going to open a company in the United States, he couldn't help but praise: "Ah Chuan, your business is really big." ”

Wang Guxian was not to be left behind, and asked: "Brother Achuan, then when can I star in Hollywood blockbusters, just like Li Xiaolong and Cheng Long." ”

Wang Zichuan was dumbfounded, this little girl is so ambitious.

"Xiaoxian, are you really planning to enter Hollywood?"

"Yes! I'm going to be the first actress to break into Hollywood! ”

"Then you'd better practice kung fu!" Wang Zichuan added: "If you want to gain a foothold in Hollywood, kung fu is definitely a shortcut. ”

Wang Guxian said disappointedly: "But I don't like to practice!" ”

Zhou Hailin is also extremely disappointed, she can work hard to do anything else, but kung fu is not something that can be learned in a day or two, a year or two, Hong Kong martial arts stars, which one has not studied hard since childhood, and now learns martial arts? If you have a small achievement, you are at least fifty or sixty years old.

Wang Zichuan said with a smile: "So you can develop in Hong Kong with peace of mind, and I can take you to Hollywood if I have the opportunity." ”

"Great!" Wang Guxian couldn't help but kiss Wang Zichuan on the face, as if he had won the jackpot, and he was excited.

Zhou Hailin also kissed on the other side shyly, although she had not been with Wang Zichuan for a long time, she knew him very well for his personality, especially his commitment to women, and never disappointed her.

"It's on!"

"The director asked everyone to prepare, it's about to start!"

The crew got together in twos and threes, fiddling with props.

Wang Zichuan patted the two of them on the back and said, "Hurry up and prepare." ”

"Yes!"

Wang Guxian looked around and wondered, "Why is my brother missing?" ”

"I'm so wronged, you finally remembered me!" Zhang Guorong came out from behind the door and rolled his eyes.

Wang Guxian and Zhou Hailin were ashamed, did they hear what they just said?

Zhang Guorong smiled: "I came back from the car just now, and I didn't eavesdrop on your whispers." (To be continued......)
