Chapter 117: Take action
"Never Expected", the first episode of the network's "low-cost martial arts drama", has been produced.
According to Stephen Zhao's highest instructions: all actors are selected from within the company.
Of course, there is no need for a special explanation in the first episode, because there are only two actors in this episode, one protagonist "Wang Da Hammer", and one is a supporting role. "Wang Da Hammer" is Ding Xiaofei's role, and Zhao Xingchi decided to praise this otaku with a withering temperament; The supporting role of the dead running trick was handed over to Wang Zefeng, with some fat wide faces and a little makeup, revealing a sense of obscenity from the inside out, and having a fight with "calling the beast".
In the office, having just relaxed from the stagnant atmosphere of the rejection of the review, Zhao Xingchi and others immediately began to sit around and watch this episode of "low-cost martial arts drama".
As soon as the picture appeared, it was Ding Xiaofei's costume and the rural scene, holding a plastic sword in his hand.
Dead face, fish bubble eyes, dull eyes, very embarrassed face, as soon as Ding Xiaofei appeared on the screen, it immediately made Zhao Xingchi and the others laugh.
When Ding Xiaofei's "Wang Da Hammer" complained about the crew's hard work and defeated the supporting role played by Wang Zefeng with the Nine Heavens of Ice and Fire of Jiuyang Divine Fist, the laughter of Zhao Xingchi and others became even louder.
Especially when the swordsman played by Wang Zefeng fell to the ground and muttered to himself, "My career has no regrets, I remembered the running in the sunset that day, it was my lost youth", and he laughed directly.
The others were laughing breathlessly, including Ding Xiaofei and Wang Zefeng, the two guys who performed, Wang Yinhua and Qian Minli kept slapping the table with laughter.
Stephen Zhao is a little better, after all, he has already burst into laughter on Earth, and he pays more attention to the differences and differences between the two versions.
"Ouch hey...... It's really laughing at me, who wrote this script, it's too funny, right? Qian Minli smiled and blushed, and the pink fist hammered Zhao Xingchi one by one, and then asked.
Wang Yinhua said with a smile: "Who else can it be, of course it's Boss Zhao." ”
Qian Minli gave Zhao Xingchi a wink, pursed her lips and smiled, and didn't speak.
Stephen Zhao "gave the soul to the soul", and then had an eyebrow flirt with Qian Minli......
Well, the above belongs to Qian Minli's residual thoughts, in fact, Zhao Xingchi received her flattering eyes at all, but kept frowning and watching the video.
The first episode was played quickly, and after "Wang Da Hammer" never expected that he actually saved a Ruhua, and then committed suicide decisively, a list of the main creators appeared on the screen.
Stephen Zhao was silent for a long time, constantly comparing the two versions of this episode in his mind.
Everyone looked at him expectantly, just waiting for his nod.
Zhao Xiaogang is the director, so he quickly asked, "Mr. Zhao, how is it?" ”
Zhao Xingchi glanced up at him, and under their nervous gaze, he suddenly smiled, nodded approvingly: "Yes, it's very unreasonable, this is what I want." ”
Although there are still a lot of flaws, and it feels a little weird, after analyzing it, Zhao Xingchi knew that it was not that Zhao Xiaogang, Ding Xiaofei, and Wang Zefeng had a problem with the shooting, but that he had a preconceived notion and was used to the combination of white guest and beast, so he felt weird.
Looking at it from another angle, I am used to the combination of Ding Xiaofei and Wang Zefeng, and it is actually a bit weird to see the combination of Bai Ke and Beast.
Therefore, the combination of Ding Xiaofei and Wang Zefeng actually passed the test.
"Ouye!"
"Great!"
Ding Xiaofei and Wang Zefeng high-fived each other and shouted happily.
"Congratulations!" Qian Minli and Wang Yinhua smiled and applauded and congratulated.
"Tongxi." Zhao Xiaogang was old and heavy, but he couldn't help but be a little excited, and hugged his fists.
Stephen Zhao slapped his hands and said, "Okay, everyone, don't get excited, although the finished film has come out, we are still some distance from success, and we can't relax." In this way, Director Zhao and I will go to the capital tomorrow and strive to make "Never Expected" pass the review; Wang Yinhua, you stay in the company to assist Assistant Qian, sponsor the title or something, you look at it, and choose which video sharing website to promote and cooperate, as well as the preparation of the press conference. Questions? ”
"No problem." Qian Minli said with a smile.
"I will assist the good assistant to do a good job, Mr. Zhao, please rest assured." Wang Yinhua smiled and reassured.
Stephen Zhao nodded.
……
The next day, Zhao Xingchi and Zhao Xiaogang, as well as his own bodyguards, took a plane to the capital.
Zhan Xianjun personally came to the airport to take the opportunity, drove a low-key Audi, and then took them to a famous five-star hotel in Beijing: Dorsett Hotel.
In the car, Zhan Xianjun said: "The banquet is scheduled for eight o'clock in the evening, and the three young men of the Ye family will come at that time, and there are a few other famous sons. During the day...... There are still a lot of interesting places in the capital, Mr. Zhao can go and see, Xiao Gang is very familiar with the capital, and he can let Xiao Gang take you there. ”
Zhao Xingchi smiled: "Thank you." ”
Zhan Xianjun waved his hand and laughed at himself: "You're welcome, they are all in this business, just helping each other." It's not easy for anyone, everyone has to know some people, and everyone will offend some people inexplicably, anyway, it's always right to have multiple friends and multiple roads, and I myself am also thanks to Ye Sanshao, otherwise where would I have today, I wouldn't have known that I would have been trampled on in the mud and couldn't turn over. ”
Zhao Xingchi thought thoughtfully: "It seems that this Ye Sanshao is still a person with good character and bottom line." ”
Ye Sanshao or something, Zhao Xingchi naturally didn't know him.
However, in a place like the capital, he dared to call him "Ye Sanshao", presumably a person with a background to the sky.
Stephen Zhao is not in the mood to investigate these things, he just needs to introduce a person with a well-known background as an Austrian aid, and then do business and live without being disturbed.
Whether those people want fame or money, they just want to get out of the way, and they just hit it off.
When I saw Ye Sanshao, Ye Sanshao and his three companions came together, all of them were young people in their early twenties, tall, short, fat and thin, with various appearances, but they were all mediocre. The only thing that can be commended is the temperament of the four, the strong self-confidence exuded from the inside out, obviously because of the strong family background.
Zhao Xingchi recognized who Ye Sanshao was at a glance, there was no way, Ye Sanshao's whole person was surrounded in the center, and he was thin and tall.
Ye Sanshao's appearance is unremarkable, only thick lips and a relatively wide face, as well as eyes that are twice as bright as ordinary people, make Ye Sanshao's whole person look not so ordinary, but gives people a calm and bold character.
Ye Sanshao's full name is Ye Weihong, and the name is very meaningful.
The other three people, the tallest one is called Zhou Yuanheng, the fattest one is called Peng Guohong, and the shortest one is called Mo Li, all three of them are the children of the official eunuchs in the capital, and the elders in the family are either so-and-so directors or so-and-so members.
After the two sides met, Zhan Xianjun first made an introduction, and then talked a few words casually.
Ye Weihong looked quite enthusiastic, as soon as Zhan Xianjun's introduction landed, he took a few steps forward and stretched out his right hand to Zhao Xingchi, and said with a smile: "I've always wanted to meet Mr. Zhao in person, but I didn't expect to achieve my wish so quickly, I'm so happy." The masterpieces "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" have all been read, and they are all wonderfully written, and I myself am a fan of Mr. Zhao. ”
"Thank you!" Stephen Zhao smiled immodestly at his praise.
A hint of discoloration flashed in Ye Weihong's eyes, but it was fleeting, and no one noticed it.
After entering the private room, the two parties took their seats.
This is a more formal meeting, at least Zhao Xingchi seems to be like this, because in addition to drinking, eating, and talking, there is no entertainment on the scene, which is obviously not in line with the temperament of the legendary second generation.
Of course, these are just vignettes.
Under Zhan Xianjun's threading of the needle, Zhao Xingchi spoke out his own problems. At the same time, Ye Weihong also expressed his own considerations, he actually hoped to cooperate with Zhao Xingchi.
"No wonder Zhan Xianjun helped so refreshingly, and Ye Weihong also agreed to meet me very happily, it seems that ambush here, the sky really won't drop pie for no reason." Zhao Xingchi sighed secretly in his heart, but he was not disgusted, speaking of which, everyone takes what they need, who makes him lack the energy in the government.
Zhao Xingchi asked undeniably: "I don't know what kind of cooperation Ye Shao said?" ”
Ye Weihong smiled, and did not say it directly, but said another thing: "Actually, I have always wanted to enter the entertainment industry, I asked Junzi to help, but he said that his talent is not good, and his inspiration has dried up, so he has not made the trip." Mr. Zhao, you also know that the most important thing for an entertainment company is to have a pillar, just like the Rey brothers have Wang Baogang and Huayi Media has Zhang Yikai......"
Later, even if Zhao Xingchi didn't have to listen to it, he understood what Ye Weihong meant.
Ye Weihong compared him to Wang Baogang and Zhang Yikai, saying that he could help develop an entertainment company into a film and television giant like Rey Brothers and Huayi Media.
Zhang Yikai, who is about the same status as Wang Baogang, is one of the top directors in China. The only difference is that Zhang Yikai specializes in Chinese New Year comedies and is currently recognized as the king of comedy directors in China. In terms of the commercialization of the movie, Zhang Yikai wants to finish Wang Baogang, and all he lacks is a trophy.
"Ye Shao thinks too highly of me!" Zhao Xingchi said lightly.
"There's no doubt about it." Ye Weihong said affirmatively: "With my understanding of Mr. Zhao, there seems to be nothing that Mr. Zhao will not do in literary creation, music creation, TV program creation, and script creation. With such a great talent, I believe that as long as he is not blind, everyone has to pay great attention to Mr. Zhao. Compared with Wang Baogang and Zhang Yikai, what Mr. Zhao lacks is just time. ”
I have to say that Zhao Xingchi was very happy to say this.
No one doesn't like to be complimented by others.
After thinking about it, Stephen Zhao said in the end: "There is no problem with cooperation, but not now, we have to wait until our company's online drama is broadcast." ”
Ye Weihong smiled and picked up the wine glass: "Then I wish us a happy cooperation!" ”
"Happy working together!" Stephen Zhao replied.
