Chapter 128: Wang Jing's Female Boss
"No, the fat of the second telecommunications network is prepared by the British government in Hong Kong for those rich people, we can watch the show with peace of mind at present, as for the people who come out, they just want to understand and have curiosity. Huo Dongjun smiled at Le Yiling and said, "Do you have time to return to Hong Kong in the near future?"
"May probably rush back. Le Yiling said on the other side of the phone.
After chatting with Le Yiling for a while about the mainland's co-production plan, Huo Dongjun hung up the phone, pulled out the phone numbers of Wang Jing and Mai Dangxiong, hesitated, and chose to call Wang Jing.
It's not that he doesn't have a friendship with McDonald's Bear, in fact, McDonald's Bear and Huo Dongjun have a good relationship, the sequel to "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard", McDonald's Bear is the director, Huo Dongjun is very happy to cooperate with him, but McDonald Bear is too boring, but it is not as good as Wang Jing, and chatting can be unscrupulous.
Wang Jing has been preparing for "The Gambler" during this time, "God of Gamblers" is Wang Jing writing the script and being the director, "The Saint of Gambling" is Liu Zhenwei and Yuan Kui's civil and military partners, and this "Gambler" takes the essence of the first two parts, Wang Jing is responsible for directing and perfecting the whole script, Liu Zhenwei is responsible for filling in Zhou Xingchi's part, and finally handed it over to Wang Jing to be fused together.
The first "God of Gamblers" is starring Zhou Runfa, Liu Dehua plays a supporting role, Zhou Xingchi makes the final easter egg cameo, the second "Gambling Saint" is starring Zhou Xingchi, Wu Mengda is a partner, Zhou Runfa makes a cameo in the easter egg, the third "Gambler", Wang Jing's original idea was to let Zhou Runfa and Zhou Xingchi star, a God of Gamblers and a Saint of Gambling, join forces to fight the world, but Huo Dongjun denied it, and in addition to Huo Dongjun's disagreement, Liu Zhenwei also objected, mainly because Zhou Runfa was too imposing in "God of Gamblers", With Zhou Xingchi, a giggling gambling saint, he can't hold down the scene at all, not to mention the co-starring, in front of Zhou Runfa, even if Zhou Xingchi tries his best to steal the spotlight with exaggerated performances, he may not be able to steal the limelight from Zhou Runfa.
So the final result is to eliminate Zhou Runfa according to what Huo Dongjun understood in his previous life, and take out Liu Dehua in the first "God of Gamblers" to make a story, and the story of the entire "God of Gamblers" has been developed into a series of movies, a God of Gamblers master, two apprentices, a gambler and a gambling saint.
"God of Gamblers" was a hit, swept the box office of Hong Kong movies, and followed by all kinds of follow-ups, "Gambling Demon", "Gambling Lord", "Gambling Ghost", "Gambling King" and other movies emerge in endlessly, but there are few box office records of more than 10 million, the main reason is that Zhou Yanfa did not blindly take on the theme of gambling films after filming "God of Gamblers", without his classic image, it is strange that the audience can spend money to enter the scene.
"The Saint of Gambling" was released to grab money, although the Spring Festival file failed to overpower "Flying Dragon Warrior" and ": Eight-Star Annunciation", but it squeezed Debao's "Rich and Powerful" under him, a Zhou Xingchi who was not very famous before, plus Wu Mengda, an old drama bone who has been wirelessly tempered for many years, with Zhang Le's lineup, plus exaggerated and bizarre special functions for gambling, which makes people shine.
Some people are about to ask Zhou Xingchi to make a movie with the same theme, but Zhou Xingchi is now in Dongyi's hands, not to mention that Zhou Xingchi also knows that his drama is a big hit, and he doesn't have to pick up outside plays, the company will help him arrange new plays.
The biggest difference between the two movies "God of Gamblers" and "The Saint of Gambling" is that Liu Zhenwei and Yuan Kui don't know how to gamble, although "The Saint of Gamblers" has a gambling word, but many stories take place outside the gambling table, and the scenes of the table duel are more than a step worse than "God of Gamblers".
asked Wang Jing to come over and chat for a few words, and after a short time, Wang Jing hurriedly appeared with a briefcase, he thought that Huo Dongjun was going to talk to him about the movie "The Gambler", and when he sat down and asked with the coffee made by the company staff, he found that Huo Dongjun actually asked about the TV industry.
"Talents in the TV industry?" Wang Jing asked with a wink of eyes at Huo Dongjun and a stunned expression.
Huo Dongjun nodded: "Brother Xiang, you have been in wireless for all those years, so I asked you to come over and help me think about it, I want someone who understands the TV industry to come out and learn about the TV industry." β
Wang Jing rubbed his fat face, and only said after more than ten seconds: "Then let my boss come out and talk?"
"You are a wireless gold medal choreographer and have a boss, it can't be your old bean, right?" Huo Dongjun joked with a smile.
Wang Jing's old bean is the Shaw Brothers meritorious Wang Tianlin, with countless protΓ©gΓ©s, and his status in the TV circle is equivalent to Chu Yuan, Zhang Che and others in the film industry.
"Don't think that I can really rely on my old bean lawlessness when I was in B, I have a boss here, and it was a beautiful girl at the time, but it's hard to say now, I'm in my thirties now, and I'm old. Wang Jing talked about his boss back then, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up: "At that time, I was a small screenwriter, and more than a dozen other screenwriters were locked in the room by this boss, and they were not allowed to go out if the script was not done, if you want to understand the TV industry, she is the most suitable, and she joined B in seven or four years from the lowest level of field work, and now she is a big producer, and she is very clear about the way to this industry." β
"What the hell, seeing that your face is obviously unsatisfied, are you ready to go back to your female boss and continue to be a screenwriter?" Huo Dongjun said.
Wang Jing said the name of his boss to Huo Dongjun: "Zeng Lizhen, nicknamed Battery Zhen, a famous workaholic." β
"It's not going to be another Leyiling, right? Workaholic, my current understanding of the word is that Leyiling is equal to workaholic. When Huo Dongjun heard Wang Jing say that Zeng Lizhen was a workaholic, he immediately thought of Le Yiling.
"The two don't come in the same style. Wang Jing shook his head and said, he is very familiar with Le Yiling, and he is also very familiar with Zeng Lizhen: "Miss Le was injured by Ah B, so she became a cold beauty, she was very cheerful before, as for Battery Zhen, her way of working, have you ever seen a shrew? More than a dozen big men were scolded by her alone and couldn't raise their heads, but some of them reciprocated, because she herself did not do anything that more than a dozen of us did not do, tell a joke, 81 B did a party, she was just a choreographer at that time, originally this kind of party had her share, she took us to be responsible for the script, As a result, there are more than a dozen artists who are not familiar with the script, big names, of course, they will not find their own reasons, they blame the lines on the script for being too awkward, but that script is written by my subordinates, no matter how I am scolded, I dare not fight back, you guessed what happened?
Wang Jing said halfway, looked at Huo Dongjun and asked.
Huo Dongjun shook his head and said he couldn't guess: "Could it be the shrew method you talked about, go up and tear those artists?"
Uncle Six watched the rehearsal below, of course he couldn't do it, but Battery Zhen rushed up and pointed to a few artists, pointed out each other's names and scolded, like a man, you know, the women came in evening dresses that night, she wore an evening dress and scolded a group of people to be silent, and then she memorized the lines of more than 100 actors from beginning to end. Wow, a few of us were really backstage at the time, and I felt that all the hardships that had been with Battery Jane over the years were swept away because she helped us out. Wang Jing took a sip of coffee and said: "I still can't forget the picture when she stood in front of more than 100 people in a dress and scolded by name, and then recited the script with 10,000 words." β
"And then?" Huo Dongjun felt that Wang Jing was born to be a master storyteller, and if he asked him to help introduce an insider, he would be able to tell a story to attract him.
Wang Jing shrugged: "Then we all thought that offended these people, Battery Zhen was afraid that she would resign and go to ATV?
"I didn't say I was going to poach people and change jobs. Huo Dongjun also took a sip of coffee.
Wang Jing's eyes stared at Huo Dongjun and said: "It's strange, you don't want to understand the TV circle for no reason, you must have ideas, so I also remind you that Battery Zhen may change jobs, don't touch the dust with your nose yourself, I'll call her, and the three of us will sit together for a meal and chat." β
After speaking, Wang Jing took out the phone book, found Zeng Lizhen's number and called, and asked the other party to go to the racecourse Hengyun Restaurant for dinner.
Qiu Shuzhen sat in Liu Zhenwei's office and got up from time to time to lean out of the window to see if Huo Dongjun's car appeared downstairs, Liu Zhenwei raised his head from his desk and said to her:
"Hey, do you need to watch it a dozen times so exaggerated? Just arrange for you to audition, and not let you be the heroine now?"
Qiu Shuzhen showed a sweet smile to Liu Zhenwei: "Of course I'm excited, American yes, Western films, not Hong Kong films, Americans will know me by then." β
"Forget it, just keep fantasizing yourself. Liu Zhenwei shook his head and continued to look at the company's text, Qiu Shuzhen obviously didn't listen to herself, and reminded her that it was an audition, but she still thought that she could become a heroine.
When she first received a call from Liu Zhenwei, Qiu Shuzhen was exercising in the gym to prepare for the character of Long Jiu in "The Gambler", but she heard Liu Zhenwei say that Huo Dongjun was preparing a Western film in the United States and was going to arrange for her to audition in the United States.
She didn't know how she got into Huo Dongjun's eyes, and actually chose her to audition in the United States, some time ago she saw Huo Dongjun and asked for a role of Long Jiu, and she was already overjoyed, and now it is actually a big production, and it is an American film, which makes Qiu Shuzhen feel that her New Year's visit to Wong Tai Sin Temple to pray for blessings has come true, otherwise even if this kind of good thing is not arranged for Zhang Le, Wang Guxian will be ranked in front of her.
The only thing that is depressed is that she has been sitting in Liu Zhenwei's office for three or four hours, and her sweat has evaporated, but Huo Dongjun has not yet appeared.
