Chapter 390: Inspection
………
Half an hour later.
Xu Zheng read the script again and agreed to play the male number one Cheng Yong.
"Director, I took the book, when will it be turned on?"
"Don't worry, I have to fly to Yuzhang in a few days, you think about the role first, and wait for me to come back and audition for other roles together."
Fang Ziheng smiled and spoke, not in a hurry to start shooting.
In addition to the male lead actor Cheng Yong, there are also several roles with heavy roles in the movie.
These roles have their own characteristics, and the reason for the advance of the time, the original actor is not necessarily suitable, and he needs to audition in person.
"Okay, I'll go back first, waiting for the director's call."
Xu Zheng nodded, got up with the script and prepared to go home.
He knew that Fang Ziheng was very busy and couldn't have a lot of time to fart with him and Ning Hao like before.
Fang Ziheng became famous, standing in a very high position in the film and television industry, far away from him and Ning Hao.
Speaking of Ning Hao, I don't know how the filming of "Charlotte's Troubles" went?
Xu Zheng put the script into his handbag and asked, "Director, Haozi's "Charlotte's Troubles" is almost finished, when are you going to release it?" ”
"It's coming soon, Ning Hao said that it will be completed in the middle of the month, and it is expected that the New Year file will be released."
Fang Ziheng nodded slightly, snuffed out the cigarette and got up, took out his mobile phone and dialed Wen Muye, director of the film division.
"Charlotte's Troubles" is a comedy, and it is also the main project of this year's Hengyu New Year.
It started in June and finished at the end of November, which is enough time for five months.
"Hey, old wen."
"Remember, tomorrow I will notify all departments to officially prepare for "I Am Not the God of Medicine", and in addition to the actor, audition invitations will be sent to the circle for other roles in the movie."
"Okay, director, when is the audition?"
"It's scheduled for November 15th, and it's going to start early and finish early."
After saying a few words, Fang Ziheng hung up the phone and walked out of the reception room with Xu Zheng.
Outside.
Many employees saw the two come out and greeted them respectfully.
After the two left, whispers sounded in the office area, and the employees were curious about Fang Ziheng's goal of finding Xu Zheng alone.
........
November 5th.
Fang Ziheng rested at home for a few days, and took Concubine Lin, Liu Qianqian, Hao Yi, Sang Lin, and a group of executives from the group's production department, film division, television division, and external relations department to board the plane to Yuzhang Changcheng.
This time I went to Yuzhang, the main purpose was to inspect the Hengyu Film and Television Base under construction, and by the way, it was the early set of "Immortality".
In the first-class cabin, Fang Ziheng, Concubine Lin, and Liu Qianqian killed time by playing poker.
Along the way, the young lady was in a happy mood and chattered non-stop.
The last time, on the third day of the Lunar New Year, she dated her lover alone from the Han River to Changcheng.
This time is different, but she is going to Yuzhang with Fang Ziheng and returning to her lover's hometown together.
It's very sweet when I think about it, and I have the feeling of an ugly daughter-in-law going back to her hometown to see her in-laws.
Although Fang Ziheng lost his parents, he went to Yuzhang twice, and the young lady's mood was completely different.
After playing cards for a while, Liu Qianqian was not less interested, called the flight attendant to send three drinks, and chuckled: "We will stay in Yuzhang for a few days this time, I want to go to Lushan to have a look." ”
“.. Go to Lushan, then I have to think about it..."
"Oh, I don't think I have time, I'll have to fly to the deep city in a few days."
Fang Ziheng snorted, dragged the old man with his voice, and hung the appetite of the young lady.
As soon as she heard that he might be busy and couldn't go to Lushan, the young lady crossed her pretty face and stared at Danfeng's eyes and said: "Didn't you say before that you only went to Yuzhang, what are you going to do in Shencheng?" ”
"Tengxun's Shencheng Horse invited me to be a guest and talk about big business."
Fang Ziheng took a sip of his drink and said half-jokingly.
On the other side, Concubine Lin glanced at him, stretched out her hand to arm the young lady and stood on the same line with her, and snorted softly: "Sissi, don't believe him, he won't go to Shencheng, Shencheng Ma will come to the imperial capital in a few days." ”
"It's all the same, I go to him to talk about business, and I can't stay in Yuzhang for a few days."
Fang Ziheng rolled his eyes, put down the drink, scraped the bridge of the young lady's delicate little nose with his hand, and said shamelessly: "It's okay if you want me to go, how can you compensate me?" ”
"Compensation? You want to be beautiful. ”
Liu Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and glared at him coquettishly.
I didn't expect this guy to tease her in front of Sister Concubine, and he wanted to make a yellow mouth.
Yes, it is to open the yellow cavity.
She knew Fang Ziheng best, and knew that as long as she answered the phone and asked what compensation she wanted, he would definitely take the opportunity to make bad demands.
Those requests are all boudoir secrets, too astringent.
Liu Qianqian didn't look at Fang Ziheng, her earlobes flushed, and the more she thought about it, the more ashamed she felt.
Big Bad!
How can this be!
She was shy, and Concubine Lin was no better.
They are all family, and she naturally understands Fang Ziheng's dirty thoughts.
Forthwith.
The two beauties threw away the playing cards and stopped playing with him.
Fang Ziheng hehehe, straight, if you don't play, you won't play, who is afraid of whom.
A few hours later.
The plane landed in Changcheng, and a black convoy with government license plates came to pick up the plane.
It was still the secretary general of the provincial government, who received Fang Ziheng and his party with a happy face.
"Fang Dong, it's been hard all the way, welcome home!"
"The secretary general is too polite, how can I bother you to pick it up in person."
Fang Ziheng stepped forward, stretched out his hands and held the secretary general tightly, and shook it vigorously twice.
"Yes, I'm just not busy today."
The secretary general smiled, then looked at Concubine Lin and Liu Qianqian, and stretched out his hand very gentlemanly and said: "Lin Dong, Miss Liu, welcome the two of you to Yuzhang, Yuzhang has beautiful scenery and hospitality, I hope you two have a good time." ”
As he spoke, he stared at Sister Lin carefully, and secretly said in his heart that this was indeed the case.
It is rumored that Hengyu Media Group has a super official second-generation in charge, and it is this Deputy Director Lin.
"Thank you, Secretary-General."
Concubine Lin smiled slightly, the royal sister was full of breath, and took Liu Qianqian to shake hands with the secretary general in turn, with an attitude that was neither too friendly nor distant.
She came this time just as the deputy director of Hengyu Media and followed Fang Ziheng to inspect the film and television base.
After the greetings, everyone got into the car.
The secretary-general asked Fang Ziheng to take a ride in the same car, and in the car, his secretary gave a detailed account of the progress of the construction of the film and television base.
Hengyu Film and Television Base, the final site was selected in Shangrao Sanqing Mountain, and a large area was drawn on the side of the mountain.
At present, the first phase of the project at the foot of the mountain has been completed, the foundation is fully covered, and the second phase of the project is being prepared.
The second phase of the project is a bit large, and hundreds of buildings will be built, such as ancient cities, courtyards, palaces, streets, official residences, residential houses, and many retro sects.
There are also more than a dozen indoor shooting tents for science fiction, fantasy, fantasy, fairy tales, and mythology.
For example, the three set addresses used in the filming of "Immortality".
A Taoist palace, an ancient mythological palace, and a shooting studio will be the first to be built in the second phase of the project.
After listening to the secretary's introduction, Fang Ziheng nodded, he had already learned about these situations on the plane, and they were much the same.
He smiled and said: "Secretary-General, Wanda's Wang Dong, when will you arrive in Yuzhang?" ”
Wanda Group is also an investor in the film and television city, and Wang Jianlin flew from Dalian at his invitation to inspect together.
"It's coming, there's still two hours." The Secretary-General looked at the time and smiled rather relaxedly.
Fang Ziheng didn't speak, and he didn't ask the secretary general why he didn't go to pick up the plane.
I know with my toes that there is someone else who goes to pick up the big king, and the level must not be low.
The convoy marched all the way into the downtown area of Changcheng City, and finally came to the Bayi Hotel near Bayi Square.
This time, the provincial government followed Fang Ziheng's wishes and did not arrange for him to live in a guest house.
Evening.
Wang Jianlin and his entourage arrived.
Hengyu and Wanda's people gathered together for dinner.
on the dining table.
Elder Wang Jianlin is full of momentum, and he has just ascended to the throne of the richest man in China, and he exudes a majesty that is not bad for money.
During this period, one of the vice governors who received him only mentioned one sentence, and Wang Jianlin agreed to invest in ten Wanda Plazas in Yuzhang without hesitation.
Ten Wanda Plazas, with a total cost of at least 10 billion.
The big boss is real enough, very good, very good.
Fang Ziheng smiled and didn't say anything, eating vegetables and listening at the same time.
After the dinner, everyone was a little tired, did not communicate too much, and went back to the room to rest.
........
Following.
A huge convoy departed from Changcheng and drove on the highway to Shangrao.
Fang Ziheng, Wang Jianlin, Vice Province, Secretary-General, Concubine Lin, Liu Qianqian, Song Ge, Liu Ge, and the group took a Coaster.
Fang Ziheng and Wang Jianlin sat together, talking and laughing.
"Wang Dong, congratulations, this year's fortune has risen sharply."
"First of all, you won the world's second largest cinema chain AMC and Hollywood Legend Pictures, Wanda Cinema Line became the world's largest cinema operator in one fell swoop, and you yourself topped the Forbes list!"
"Fang Dong is exalting me too much, your ranking has risen faster!"
Wang Jianlin smiled lightly, suddenly lowered his voice a little, and said, "Although the richest man is good, it is not what I want." ”
This sentence was so loud that no one else in the car heard it.
Fang Ziheng nodded slightly, expressing his understanding, knowing what the Great Boss Wang was worried about.
The higher you stand, the more dangerous it is, and the danger can come from the outside as well as from the inside.
The richest man has never been a good position, it seems to be infinitely beautiful, but in fact, it is like walking on thin ice and trembling.
In the last life, the Great Old King was almost lost.
Fortunately, he was sober and fast, and the strong man broke his wrist and intercepted the high-quality projects of Wanda Group.
Because it was inconvenient to talk in the car, the two didn't talk about this, but instead talked about Lao Mouzi's "Warring States".
Wang Jianlin had the idea of the global release of "Warring States", and was slightly worried about Lao Mouzi's directing.
He deliberately learned from Fang Ziheng and asked, "Fang Dong, in your opinion, can "Warring States" achieve the grand occasion of "The Great Wall"? ”
"It's a little hard!"
Fang Ziheng shook his head and told him truthfully: "The drama "Warring States" focuses on ancient battle formations, and battle formations and big scenes have always been Director Zhang's forte, but because of the innate influence of the story background, it is difficult to resonate with overseas audiences. ”
"Of course, as long as the finished film is good, don't worry about no one watching the movie, even if it doesn't have the blockbuster of "The Great Wall", you can sell the box office of A-grade big cass."
The A-level big casts he refers to specifically refer to those projects that have invested 50 million US dollars and sold 150 million US dollars at the global box office.
"Warring States" has a total investment of 300 million soft girl coins, which is equivalent to 40 million American knives, and the global box office is at least 120 million.
In terms of income, Wang Jianlin is not worried, with the support of Wanda Cinemas around the world, it will be difficult for "Warring States" to lose money.
What he really wants is that "Warring States" will be like "The Great Wall", with a box office of more than 300 million or 400 million US dollars in one fell swoop, and once again establish the global prestige of Wanda Film and Television.
In this way, Wanda Film and Television can take advantage of the situation to enter Hollywood and cooperate with the eight giants of Hollywood.
The giants of Hollywood have always coveted the market in China.
If Wanda and Hengyu join forces, coupled with the acquisition of Legendary Pictures and the friendly Twentieth Century Fox, I believe they can gain a firm foothold in Hollywood.
It can only be said.
Wang Jianlin's idea is very good, but it is not practical.
China's restrictions on foreign investment, like Hollywood's restrictions on foreign investment, will never change.
For the eight giants of Hollywood, it is okay for the two sides to cooperate in the global market, but if you want to enter Hollywood to grab food, then you will pay attention to it.
After all, Legendary Pictures is only a second-rate film and television company, with limited influence, and it is really difficult to shake the eight giants.
And Twentieth Century Fox, once Deng Wendi and Murdoch break up, the relationship will come to an abrupt end in an instant.
Wanda Films.
may be able to rely on the world's largest cinema chain as the cornerstone to cooperate with the eight giants to stabilize the situation of global film and television layout.
It is impossible to enter Haolaiwu to grab a piece of land, turn around and threaten the eight giants, and achieve a foreign invasion.
Fang Ziheng is very sure of this.
Thinking of this, he spoke again and reminded: "Wang Dong, we can't be too wishful thinking, for Hollywood, we are outsiders and foreign-funded enterprises after all.
It's nothing to cooperate with a few movies, 21st Century, Disney, and the Big Eight let us cooperate, but it is almost impossible to enter Hollywood and occupy the North American market at all times. ”
"It's difficult, that's for sure."
Wang Jianlin's expression was resolute, and he agreed with Fang Ziheng's words a little, and then changed his words: "But no matter how difficult it is, Wanda is also confident to gnaw on the bone of Haolaiwu." ”
"Besides, isn't there still Fang Dong, how about you and I join forces and try the edge of the eight giants?"
Ma Ma Pi!
I knew that you were starting to float, big boss!
Fang Ziheng was dumbfounded, quite speechless.
The feelings he said just now were in vain, and it especially aroused the pride in Wang Jianlin's heart.
This Nima, the eldest king wants to re-embark on the road of a lifetime!
The hope is not to make acquisitions, mergers and acquisitions, buy and buy all the way, but to seek progress while maintaining stability and deepen Wanda's overseas strategic layout little by little.
Fang Ziheng didn't refuse in person, and said euphemistically: "Don't rush first, take your time, take your time, see the success of "Warring States" next year, if it meets expectations, we will cooperate in a big production at that time." ”
"Haha, okay, that's it!"
"Fang Dong rest assured, the production budget is the same as "The Great Wall", and there is no need for Hengyu to make a move."
Wang Jianlin was suddenly overjoyed, and said with a heroic wave.
On this trip, his main purpose was to meet and talk to Fang Ziheng and pull him on the boat to fight together.
Secondly, by the way, he helped Wanda Film and Television, which Song Ge was in charge, to discuss the next step of film cooperation.
In any case, it is a pleasure to be able to collaborate with Fang Ziheng on a movie.
The film cooperation set the tone, and Fang Ziheng gave him face very much.
As for the conquest of Haolaiwu, it is really not in a hurry, there is no good project, and the gate of Haolaiwu cannot be opened with cannons, let alone with a head.
........
Near noon, the convoy got off the highway and came to Shangrao.
The local government sent someone to pick them up, and after a short rest, the group went to the city for lunch.
In the afternoon, we continued to set off and arrived at Sanqing Mountain at three o'clock.
The scenery of Sanqing Mountain is so beautiful that anyone who sees it has to admire the beauty of nature.
Country 5a
In the scenic area, the strange peaks are next to each other, the scenery is beautiful and steep, the main peak is shining, and the road is full of rhyme.
Create a film and television base at the foot of the side mountain, which will not disturb the scenery on the mountain, but also gather popular tourists in the scenic spot.
After getting off the bus, under the greeting of Wang Peng, the person in charge of Hengyu Film and Television Base, and General Manager Li of Wanda Group, who is in charge of construction, the group walked to the film and television base.
A few minutes later.
At the foot of the mountain on the side of Sanqing Mountain, huge foundations are uplifted.
The beams of the foundation are covered with red and hung colors, festive, and thousands of construction workers are working on the foundation in full swing.
