Of course, the most famous thing Mai Dangxiong has done was when he was filming "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers".

In one scene, the actor is tied up in a car and the car is set on fire, which requires the actor to show an extremely panicked expression.

So without informing the actor Shen Wei, he really poured gasoline and ignited the fire, and the whole car burned all at once.

Afterwards, although Mai Dangxiong got the extremely real horror he wanted, when the actor was released, Shen Wei, who was almost burned by the fire, immediately chased Mai Dangxiong with a watermelon knife and cut a few streets.

If it weren't for the staff, it is estimated that he would have been stabbed a few times.

When Zhang Mu mentioned these past events, Mai Dangxiong didn't mind laughing at all, and began to talk about his shooting concept of "fake scenes and real work".

After some talking and laughing, Zhang Mu realized that the phone number given to him by the old man last time turned out to be Mai Dangxiong's number.

In the early years, in the golden age of Xiangjiang films, in order to make money, Mai Dangxiong filmed classic movies such as "Ghost Out of the Cage", "Lame Hao", "Flying Fox Gaiden" and "Black Gold".

However, with the decline of Xiangjiang films, Mak Dangxiong found that he could no longer make money making movies, so he simply stopped filming and came to the mainland to run agricultural products and real estate businesses.

Although he and Lao Mouzi are only one year apart, their film concepts are diametrically opposed.

In the early days, Lao Mouzi firmly believed that "film is art", and Mak Dangxiong's concept was very clear from his entry into the industry - "film is business".

He makes movies just to make money!

Trying to make classic movies is about making more money!

When he found that there was no money to make in filmmaking, he naturally gave up this business without hesitation and found another way.

However, although Mai Dangxiong has been out of film for a long time, he still has some ways in the film industry.

At that time, because he was angry that the overseas copyright fees given by Jiahe were too small, he did not hesitate to personally take the copies to major theaters in Southeast Asia to discuss distribution one by one.

It can be said that the overseas distribution of several of his films was made by him with hard work.

Because of business contacts, the relationship between Mr. Xu and Mai Dangxiong is good. So this time I heard that he was coming to Hangzhou, so I simply invited him over.

Thinking of this, Zhang Mu suddenly understood Old Man Xu's good intentions.

After all, it is very likely that "Pen Fairy" will not be released in the mainland, so if the overseas copyright can be sold for some money, Zhang Mu will not lose all his money.

However, Da En did not say thank you, Zhang Mu did not say anything, but silently kept this kindness in his heart, and then asked Mai Dangxiong for the overseas distribution of "Pen Fairy".

Mai Dangxiong subconsciously took a puff of cigarette when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, he said slowly:

"Now it's not like ever, the cinema chain in Southeast Asia is no longer something that can be broken through alone."

Then I saw a hint of confidence on his unsmiling face:

"If you believe me, you will package and sell the copyrights of Southeast Asian countries and the copyrights of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and I can introduce you to the Xiang Sheng of the Chinese star."

"However, the copyrights of Stick and Dongying should be sold separately, and the horror film market in these two places is still very large."

"As for the copyright in Europe and the United States, if you have time, you can run film festivals and exhibitions, maybe you can sell them somewhat."

Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something, so he took out a note and wrote a phone number and handed it to Zhang Mu.

"You can go to Dongying to try it first, the piracy crackdown over there is strict, and if the box office is good, you can negotiate the price later."

Then he reminded in particular: "Remember, the stick must be put at the end, they are not reputable!" ”

After listening to Mai Dangxiong's suggestion, Zhang Mu had to admit that although he was gone, his vision was still sharp.

Originally, he was ready not to make money in this "Pen Fairy", so he should be a practitioner. But Mai Dangxiong's words gave him another idea.

So he immediately thanked Chaomai Dangxiong gratefully:

"Thank you Mai Sheng for your advice, if there is anything I can help in the future, I will define it."

Seeing him say this, Mai Dangxiong immediately smiled and nodded at Zhang Mu, and then smiled at Old Man Xu:

"Old man, you junior is terrible!"

After all, sometimes it depends on whether you are qualified or not.

However, Old Man Xu and Mai Dangxiong were obviously quite optimistic about Zhang Mu's future, so the two of them pointed out to him what to pay attention to, and then left the screening room.

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, at the door of the screening room, Zhang Mu suddenly laughed inexplicably.

……

Because Jiang Ping's investment was made by Jiang Ping's father at the earliest, after the film was completed, Jiang Ping, the photographer, had to accompany him to meet the coal boss.

On the train, looking at the two bodyguards who had been following them like a shadow, Zhang Mu couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.

He didn't know where Mr. Chen found these two strange things, but he really followed them until now, and he didn't say a word.

But as long as he doesn't run, having these two bodyguards doesn't matter whatever.

As the train gradually approached Datong, Zhang Mu finally made a decision in his heart.

At the same time, he was also ready to have a good talk with Jiang Ping.

In the dining car, looking at Zhang Mu with a serious face, Jiang Ping couldn't help but look puzzled.

After all, the movie is finished, and seeing that their problems are about to be solved, what else is there to worry about?

Seeing this, Zhang Mu simply went straight to the point.

"Lao Jiang, I won't sell it to you anymore."

"No matter what you think at first, you pulled this project after all, so now you have two choices."

Facing Jiang Ping's blank eyes, Zhang Mu raised two fingers and said:

"The first choice: no matter how much money Mr. Chen gives later, it will be yours. The money you paid off your gambling debts before is also counted as your dividends. ”

Seeing Zhang Mu say this, Jiang Ping's eyes couldn't help but move slightly. But then, I saw Zhang Mu and said:

"The second option: I will ask Mr. Chen for the overseas copyright of "Pen Fairy" later. I'm going to take a gamble, if you want to join, then we will share the expenses later, and we will share the profits in the end! ”

After that, Zhang Mu looked at Jiang Ping with blazing eyes, waiting for his choice.

Jiang Ping, who was originally puzzled, suddenly understood after listening to Zhang Mu's words.

But he didn't think long before he shook his head with a wry smile.

"Shepherd, I'm sorry for you this time. If it weren't for you, I would have run away by now. ”

Then Jiang Ping looked at Zhang Mu a little lonely: "But I'm old, I really don't have the energy to fight anymore, and I won't participate in the rest of the matter!" ”

Obviously, he chose the first path.

Looking at Jiang Ping's departing back, Zhang Mu couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.

He knew that Jiang Ping's age was actually in the prime of life in the circle.

It's just that after eating, drinking, and having fun for so many years, his heart has been completely smoothed out. It's just over forty, and I'm thinking about retirement.

However, he has already fulfilled his benevolence and righteousness, and it has nothing to do with him how Jiang Ping will live in the future.

Sometimes life is like this, and the days will be mixed to the end, which will inevitably let the days mess with you.
