"Really?" Bixia jumped up from her chair in shock. Don't think that being an assistant director for Zhang Hailei lowers his status. Bi Xia is nothing, so far he has only made two movies, and only one has been released, although this movie has won 500 million box office. It's nice to say, he's a popular superstar, a new star in the directing industry, it's not good to say, he's just a junior newcomer, and he's nothing compared to Zhang Hailei.

He has not proven himself at domestic award ceremonies, nor has he won honors at major international award ceremonies, let alone the Hollywood Best Director Award won by Zhang Hailei.

Zhang Hailei didn't want to recruit Bi Xia, from now on he will be his younger brother, a deputy, and an assistant director for him, just in this movie, he will give Bi Xia a chance to get close to and observe how the top directors in the world make films, which is a support. Bi Xia can carry the weight clearly, and there is only a full of joy in his heart, which is definitely a good thing for pie in the sky.

"Of course, as long as you are willing to come." Zhang Hailei smiled and nodded, he saw Bi Xia's excitement in his eyes, and was very satisfied with Bi Xia's unfeigned excitement. Back then, he was like this, he refused to let go of the slightest opportunity, put down his body to study, to specialize, in Baodao, in Xiangjiang, and even more so in Hollywood, so that he has today's achievements, status and fame.

"I'm going, I'm definitely going, I have to go, I can't ask for it......" Bi Xia was a little incoherent, this was the first time he felt that the mainstream movies in the world were so close to him, and the excitement in his heart was irrepressible.

"Ha Luha, that's good." Zhang Hailei patted him on the shoulder, got up and walked out, the screening room is not a good place to talk.

The employees in the company watched Zhang Hailei walk out with a smile on his face, and Bi Xia, who was still excited behind him, suddenly felt honored. They all knew that the two of them went in to watch the studio's new film, and when they came out, they were obviously very satisfied with the movie, and the sense of honor in their hearts as employees was suddenly stimulated.

These employees' guesses were only half right. But no one is going to spoil the atmosphere at this time, is there?

"Director Zhang, how much are you going to invest in filming this movie this time?" Bixia was curious about the question.

Zhang Hailei didn't speak, just stretched out a hand, and his palm, whose skin was already slightly old, opened vigorously and vigorously.

"Five hundred million!" Bi Xia suppressed his voice and screamed, of course he wouldn't guess fifty million, but the number of fifty million was too unexpected. In his heart, "Journey to the West" and "A Chinese Ghost Story" are compared with "A Chinese Ghost Story", even if they spend more money on special effects, the difference will not be too much, tens of millions of them will die, plus star salaries. More than 100 million can definitely be taken down, I didn't expect people to be so atmospheric, directly up to 500 million, this is definitely the biggest production of the discourse film so far.

"I have prepared 600 million, and 500 million is the number in the plan." Zhang Hailei talked about these figures, and there were not many fluctuations, and there were not a few movies he had made in the United States that cost $100 million or two, so such an investment was really nothing to him. But with such a flat tone, Bi Xia felt a kind of arrogance in the middle. The pride of transcendence. It's a gap in identity and insight.

Bi Xia felt that his blood was spurting and his heart was racing, and he was very glad that he was able to join this shooting, which helped him a lot in terms of knowledge and qualifications. At the same time, I also felt the gap between myself and the other party. The 600 million is definitely not his own money, but the domestic film company invested in him, and people have this appeal. If he were replaced, it was estimated that he could only find one or two hundred million at most. This is still a gambling investment by the other party.

"By the way, you can also help me think of a few leading candidates these days, and recommend a few to see. Your vision has always been good, and we'll pick it together when the time comes. Before leaving, Zhang Hailei left such a sentence in Bi Xia's ear.

Just such a sentence, so that Bi Xia almost didn't die of acid on his nose, this is the mind, this is the spirit, since Bi Xia is used, give him power and freedom. An assistant director who can recommend actors in the crew and an assistant director who does not have the power to choose actors are fundamentally two different concepts. People really use him, not use him as a mascot.

The employees of Tian'en Studio faintly heard the excited shouts of the always calm big boss coming from the office.

Zhang Hailei walked out of the building and left calmly under the arrangement of his assistant. But his appearance was still photographed by several reporters waiting here.

"Big news, absolutely big news!" "Why did Zhang Hailei come here, and what is worth coming here? Who else upstairs is linked to the entertainment industry besides Bi Xia? ”

What these reporters are best at is climbing up the pole, or even making something out of nothing, as long as there is one possibility that it is the hot spot of their reporting.

The next day, there was a lot of news on the Internet that was difficult to distinguish between true and false: "Zhang Hailei joins hands with Bi Xia, the strongest director joins hands with super screenwriters to create the strongest discourse movie!" ", "It is suspected that Zhang Hailei invited Bi Xia to write the script for his new drama, and the most anticipated Chinese work is about to be born! ”

There are even some reports that Zhang Hailei invited Bi Xia to star in his new drama, of course, there are many speculations about inviting Bi Xia to be an assistant director, anyway, large and small may have been written by entertainment reporters in the past few days. But in fact, their guess is really reliable this time.

After Zhang Hailei left, Bi Xia sat in the office and thought, "Journey to the West" is not like other movies, there are only two or three main characters, in this movie, Supreme Treasure is a well-deserved male protagonist, but Zhu Bajie, Sha Monk, Tang Seng are also very outstanding, and the female characters are even more amazing, spider essence, white bone essence, Zixia, are all memorable, Niu Xiangxiang and Princess Iron Fan do not have many scenes, and they are definitely brilliant enough.

Bixia can imagine how fierce the competition here will be. Thinking about him, he shuddered, the entertainment industry is not a charitable place, the water here is deep, he just has a good fate, first Huayi and Sister Jing blocked it, and then Bao Xin covered it, so he was able to develop unscrupulously, and he was also suppressed several times.

In fact, when writing the script, Bi Xia also couldn't help but think about these big and small artists who knew the Tao, but in the end he couldn't determine a role. Because his brain is full of the imprints left by the original "Journey to the West", he involuntarily compares the new characters with the classics, and finds that he is always not satisfied. This is actually very unreasonable, every outstanding actor's performance and aura are different, and they can only be compared after they have been performed.

Thinking about it, Bi Xia set his sights on the two characters of Supreme Treasure and Zixia Fairy. These two characters are the soul of this movie, whether it is Stephen Chow's Supreme Treasure or Zhu Yin's Zixia is a movie character that has influenced a generation. He couldn't imagine what would happen if these two characters were ruined.

After thinking about it, Bi Xia copied two scripts and went out. (To be continued......)
