The two parted in front of Yang Guozhong's villa, and Sun Ziming drove the idle BMW car to work in the company. Ten minutes later, as soon as Sun Ziming entered the office, before he had time to read the newspaper, Gao Ying hurriedly came in, "Brother Ming, according to the TVB morning news report just now, Lin Baixin of Lai Sun Group has just been taken by the CCB (Commercial Crime Section) to assist in the investigation, which may be related to the purchase of 'crocodile T-shirts' at a low price." ”

Yes? Sun Ziming's hand holding the teacup trembled, and he didn't feel pain even when the hot tea spilled on his hand, "Zhilu said, find Brother Hui, let his wife take a line, and see if you can arrange for me to meet Mr. Qiu." ”

Yes? Gao Ying was stunned, and asked after a while, "What do you mean?" ”

Sun Ziming nodded slightly, "Go ahead, don't worry about the company's business, go and run this matter." ”

"Yes" Gao Ying turned around excitedly, explained a few words to Sun Lei in the cubicle, and hurriedly left with her Chanel bag, without even noticing her colleagues greeting her.

With this good news stimulus, Sun Ziming didn't have much heart to read the newspaper, so he hurriedly browsed it, and almost all of them reported his big money last night in a conspicuous position. On the positive side, the company has made an unprecedented effort to allow large and small shareholders to have equal voting rights, which is conducive to protecting the interests of minority shareholders. On the negative side, this is a light and shadow company grandstanding, boosting the trend of money worship and destroying the social atmosphere. Only Luo Hui of "Ming Pao" analyzed in detail the differences between film companies and other industrial companies, and proposed that the decision-making model of film companies is conducive to directors to better shoot all kinds of films they are good at, rather than following the trend of making films. For example, as soon as "God of Gamblers" became popular, small companies began to prepare for the filming of "A Thousand Kings" and "Gambler" .......

Throwing down the newspaper, Sun Ziming went to Uncle Zeng's office, and the two of them had been discussing inside, and even lunch was personally delivered by Miss Huang, Sun Lei's assistant. Until Wang Fatzi came to knock on the door, pointed to his watch, and said dissatisfiedly: "What kind of plane are you doing?" There are still two hours left in the premiere, don't you want to change your clothes? ”

Yes? The two looked up at the wall clock, and then hurriedly went home to take a shower and change clothes, and even nibbled on some bread, biscuits and the like for dinner.

……

Since Sun Ziming insisted on doing a show, Debao's Pan Dickson was ruthless enough, and the light and shadow premiered at the Light and Shadow Cinema next to HSBC in Central, and he chartered the premiere at the Queensway AMC Cinema, less than a kilometer apart. In his words, you can beat people to death, but you must not scare people to death!

Entertainment reporters liked this drama the most, and they were in the door of the two theaters early. At seven o'clock in the evening, as soon as Sun Ziming arrived at the Broadway movie theater with the dressed Li Zhi, more than a dozen microphones were plugged in, mixed with the incessant 'clicking' sound of the flash.

Reporter: Director Sun, are you confident of winning?

As soon as this reporter heard it, he knew that Lu Dao was a newcomer, and the reporters next to him were disdainful, don't you look at who Director Sun is?

Sun Ziming swept his eyes at the Taiwan mark, this is from Taiwan, so he can only give him this face, and said with a smile: "You shouldn't ask me about this matter of confidence or disbelief, you have to ask Mr. Pan and ask him if he has faith." ”

The reporters laughed, this is a big director who can get 200 million box office in the United States!

Reporter: Director Sun, don't you worry about lowering the box office of both sides in such a ring?

It's a bit of a level, and it's worth ATV's, "No, I think only competition can promote development. Only when everyone competes reasonably, will Hong Kong films get better and better. ”

Reporter: Director Sun, are you ready to praise Miss Li?

Sun Ziming gave a thumbs up, "Your eyes are very sharp, in the first half of next year, our North American branch is preparing to shoot an action movie with three heroines." Ms. Lee is currently training with Mr. Li Lianjie and hopes to meet our requirements by then. ”

The reporter's attention was immediately focused on the enchanting Lizhi, the film directed by Sun Da, this Limei from the mainland was full of luck!

Li Zhi smiled knowingly, answered a few questions with a smile, and the two finally arrived at the ticket hall under the escort of Sun Lei and Lu Huiguang. The star lineup on the side of light and shadow is strong, and almost all of them who can be related to each other are here, and even Rong Shao's opponent, Principal Tan, has come to join in the fun.

As soon as he saw Sun Ziming, Principal Tan came over and hugged him out of sight, "Director Sunda, I heard that you wrote the lyrics and songs of a record for Rong Shao." We're friends too, why don't you write a few tunes for me? ”

The people who came were all guests, and in front of everyone, Sun Ziming was not easy to refuse, and he was even more embarrassed to deal with things. It just so happened that another king of the music world, Chen Baiqiang, was here, and he came over to help Sun Ziming 'relieve' the siege, "Aaron, don't embarrass the '$200 million director'." If you have the time to help you write tunes, you can earn 200 million again! ”

Well? The fans who were queuing up to enter stopped, all looking at Sun Ziming. When it comes to music, although Sun Ziming's singing skills are benevolent, when it comes to lyrics and composition, this genius can be called the first person in Hong Kong.

Rong Shao held Juanzi, who specially flew from Beiping, and Sister Hong in the other, and came from the VIP channel, this kind of scene is not difficult for him, "Danny, Aaron, don't be difficult for you, his boss is here." ”

Sister Hong took Rong Shao's arm and said with a smile: "Are you two interested in joining our studio?" Just join our studio and make sure I'll ask him to help you write a record every year. ”

Fans continue to move forward, this thing is impossible, who doesn't know that Zhang Hong, the gold medal arranger of Lu Dao, can be Director Sun's home. She doesn't speak, Director Sun dares to write music for people from other companies? Fans don't care, the fans of the two superstars are not happy, and there is a lot of commotion.

'Aaron (Danny), we've got your back! ’

'Director Sun, help Aaron (Danny) write songs! Director Sun, help Aaron (Danny) write songs! Director Sun, help Aaron (Danny) write songs! ’

'Refund if you don't write!' Return a ticket! Return a ticket! ’

Rong Shao was too familiar with this kind of scene, so he hurriedly interrupted Sister Hong and agreed to the invitation of the two for Sun Ziming, "Okay, I'm afraid of you!" Ziming took the time to help you write, but the copyright belongs to him! ”

Sister Hong also reacted immediately, fans are more irrational than fans, and if the fans of the three of them clash, things will be big. Danny and Allen also hurriedly reassured the fans, Director Sun was their good friend, and it was just a joke between friends.

Sun Ziming and Juanzi glanced at each other, bitter in their hearts, the fans were too crazy, and they could only go down this road.

Everyone entered the cinema one after another, and the movie started at half past seven, and the fans were quite happy to watch it.

This is a "Truant Dragon" that Brother Jing took the lead to reshoot some shots and edited again. At two o'clock the night before yesterday, as soon as the film was edited, it was immediately sent to the copy factory to be produced, and even Sun Ziming himself didn't have time to watch it. It looks pretty good now, it's funny with Uncle Tart, and the beautiful woman has Jiaming, and the scene is big enough, and there are laughter and exclamations in the theater from time to time.

It's just that when it's Xingzai's turn to appear, the audience doesn't laugh when they should laugh, and they still don't laugh when they shouldn't, and the classic scenes that make Xingzai play nondescript are all gone. That's fine, Brother Jing is worthy of being a smart person, this film is doomed to failure, there is no need to waste good things.

Taking advantage of the darkness in the movie theater, Sun Ziming quietly changed seats with Uncle Zeng, patted Wang Jing's shoulder next to him, and said in a low voice: "Brother Jing, have you sent someone to AMC to see it?" ”

Wang Jing also knows that the Tao is inviolable, this movie is congenitally insufficient, and it can no longer be saved by reshooting and editing. Now I expect the quality of "Tomb Raider" to be slightly lower, Sanmao's 18 million, just for publicity needs. Wang Jing also lowered his voice and said: "Someone has been sent, and we will go back to the company after watching the movie." “

"Oh"

Sun Ziming didn't ask anymore, but he felt faintly bad in his heart. Since Pan Disheng dares to fight in the ring, he must be quite sure that the quality of the film should not be bad, at most, it may not be satisfactory at the box office. As long as professionals think that the movie is not bad, and then compare this "Truant Dragon", even if the box office loses, their Debao company can still not lose face. Who made their light and shadow company too popular, so popular that every film is a big hit, and there is no film with a box office of less than 30 million?

……

After watching the movie and dealing with the reporters like flies, Sun Ziming and Wang Jing rushed back to the company.

"Brother Ming, Brother Jing, the investment in "Tomb Raider" is definitely more than 18 million, and I estimate that the minimum is more than 32 million! Those pictures don't deceive, let alone the audience in the cinema, we are all stunned. The ancient tomb scenery alone, without 10 million, can't do that effect at all! ……”

The two artists and photographers recruited from the mainland spoke with their voices and eyebrows.

Exercise! If the mainland has to spend tens of millions, how much does Hong Kong have to spend? Everyone let Sanmao's fat man play tricks! After listening to the report of the person sent, everyone who was still a little lucky felt a little cold, except for Uncle Tart, several main creators couldn't wait to burrow their heads into the crotch.

Sun Ziming knocked on the table and interrupted the admiration of the two, "Stop, do you think that film is good?" How did the audience react? ”

Some movies are applauded by professionals, but the audience doesn't sell them, and now everyone can only count on this situation.

Without thinking, the two blurted out: "Okay! As soon as the movie ended, the audience all applauded and cheered! We were afraid that those were invited by Debao, and we went to other theaters to watch it, and fans were talking about this film, saying that this film was well filmed, no less than the big scene of "God of Gamblers". ”

Everyone is completely dead, this will be another Hong Kong film classic, and what's worse is that the sequel script was also given to others a few days ago. There was a deathly silence in the conference room, and the two young men who had just been overexcited also realized that something was wrong, and closed their mouths that wanted to continue.

Sun Ziming quickly wrote a note and handed it to Gao Ying, who was sitting behind him. Glancing at the note, Gao Ying quickly got up and went to Lao Duna opposite, and the two hurried out of the conference room.

The soft sound of the door closing broke the silence in the conference room, but it remained silent.

Everyone was silent, but Wang Jing couldn't help but speak, when Sun Ziming went to the United States, he entrusted him with all the company's productions, and as a result, he poked out such a big one. Wang Jing looked at Sun Ziming guiltily, "Ziming, I"

Sun Zi Ming waved his hand to stop him from talking, which made Wang Fatzi even more guilty. This movie is produced by him, and he is busy preparing for a new film, so he can only deceive others, but in fact, he wants to hook up with Qiu Shuzhen in the crew. During the filming of "The Best Friend", Wang Jing spent a lot of time letting her practice her acting skills, completely forgetting that she was also the producer of "Truant Dragon". After the film was finished and the rough cut of the film was completed, Wang Jing found out that something was wrong, but unfortunately it was too late by then.

Sun Tzu didn't know about these things, he either made a film in the United States, and after returning to Hong Kong, he let all kinds of things drag his hands and feet. Seeing Wang Jing's guilt, Sun Ziming also comforted: "It's nothing, isn't it just a bad movie?" Big deal, we'll just shoot the next one. ”

Seeing that Chen Jiashang and Zhou Xingxing were still depressed, Sun Tzu knew that Lu Dao was not the time to blame them at this time, and a smile appeared on his face, "Hey, is there gold on the ground?" Keep your chest up, lose if you lose, it's not a big deal. Don't say that this film can't be lost, even if it loses, what? Which of you isn't a multimillionaire? , it's been so many years, which company hasn't made a smash film? ”

Hearing Sun Ziming say this, everyone felt better. At this time, there was a knock on the door, Gao Ying pushed the door open, walked over hurriedly, and whispered in Sun Ziming's ear, "The photo has been sent out, just now Mr. Xu Xiaoming called and said that Mr. Qiu wants to see you and see if you have time now." Tomorrow, Mr. Qiu will go to the mainland, and he may not come back for a while. ”

Sun Ziming nodded, "Brother Jing, to sum up the lesson, I have taken a step in advance." ”

"Hmm"

As soon as Sun Ziming left, Wang Jing immediately let unrelated personnel go out and began to sum up lessons and lessons. After closing the door, Wang Jing first reviewed that he wasted too much time when filming, resulting in no time to fulfill his responsibilities as a producer. Then each one examines himself. It's still the same two problems, I didn't control the rhythm and performance style. Xingzi is not the material to play a hero, at least he can't play a hero in the traditional sense, and his most suitable positioning is a small person.

Wang Fatzi can't take care of everyone's habit of making movies, he doesn't need to draw sub-scenes if he has that level, but it doesn't mean that others have it. Ziming is right, details can determine success or failure, "If you mess up this time, you will mess up, Jiashang is the first time to direct independently, and Xingzi is the first time to play the leading role, and everyone has no experience." In the future, when our company makes films, no matter which director it is, we must learn from Ziming and draw the sub-scenes for Lao Tzu first! After your storyboard script comes out, the director department will focus on the discussion, and everyone will start shooting after the shooting plan is confirmed, do you have any comments? ”

Everyone was stunned, especially Chen Jiashang and Liu Weiqiang, some of their directors, who had all read Sun Ziming's storyboard script. "God of Gamblers" was shot strictly with his storyboard script, although Brother Jing made some changes on the scene, but most of the shots were according to the script, so the shooting speed was fast and the quality was high, and there was no problem with different styles because of the two directors.

After several directors finished speaking, Wang Fatzi saw that Zhou Xingxing was still depressed, and he couldn't help but think of Sun Ziming's appreciation of this guy. If it were replaced by other actors, Wang Fatzi might turn a blind eye, and the next film would be replaced. But Sun Ziming is different, his brother's vision is too good, thinking of this Wang Fat Man squeezed out a smile and said: "Xingzai, don't be bitter about your face." Ziming said that you are the king of comedy in the future, you will definitely be, and you must believe in his vision. You're a genius, but you haven't found your own acting style yet, and when you find a breakthrough, you'll soar! ”
