Chapter 181 "Hello, Li Huanying"

"I want to see you laugh, I want to mess with you, I want to hug you and go to my arms......"

At the Pangu Seven Star Hotel in Kyoto, the wedding was going on in an orderly manner, drawing a successful end to Shen Teng and Wang Qi's 12-year love run.

When the food was served, Chen Zhibin sat down with Wang Zhi, Allen, Chang Yuan, Song Yang and others, all of whom were the original cast of "Charlotte's Troubles".

Sitting on the table next to him were Jia Ling, Xiao Shen Yang and others, several of whom were once on the same stage of "Happy Comedian", and they can be regarded as old acquaintances.

"Boss Chen, what are you eating?"

Jia Ling's gaze was a little strange today, and he kept on Chen Zhibin, and when he saw that there was a vacant seat next to him, he immediately walked over with a smile.

"Yes, Sister Ling, the food is good, let's have some pieces."

Chen Zhibin did not disappoint Jia Ling, and immediately beckoned her to sit down, anyway, there was no one sitting in this position itself, and it was empty.

What's more, Chen Zhibin is here to cuddle today, and with a person with such a good appetite as Jia Ling sitting next to him, it can taste a little more fragrant.

"That's not good." Hearing this, Jia Ling suddenly showed a signature smile, and even the dimples on both sides looked a little deeper.

Of course, having said that, Jia Ling had already sat down, and the purpose of her taking the initiative to come over to say hello was to be able to chat with Chen Zhibin for a while.

Wang Zhi, who was sitting on the other side of Chen Zhibin, originally thought that there was some bewitching slut hooking up with his man, but when he raised his head and glanced at Jia Ling who was smiling and groaning with a little vigilance, he quickly let down his guard again.

Jia Ling has a unique charm, that is, men like it, and women don't hate it, so she has such a good popularity.

"What's going on, Sister Ling, I haven't seen you for a long time, how did you lose so much weight recently?" Chen Zhibin turned his head to look at Jia Ling and asked.

"Haha, is there one?"

Hearing this, Jia Ling couldn't help but smile a little, her eyes, which were not very big, were about to narrow into a line after hearing the praise.

The last time the two met was at Bao Beier's wedding, although Jia Ling's figure was no different from before, but when she heard Chen Zhibin say this, she was still quite happy in her heart, and she instantly felt a lot lighter.

That's the impact of mindset.

"Yes, they're all about to lose their weight!" Chen Zhibin responded.

"It's not that exaggerated." Jia Ling responded with a smile.

The last time they met at the wedding site, although there was not much communication between the two, they were the same kind of people because they had both helped Liu Yan.

"Pretty much." Chen Zhibin motioned to Jia Ling to eat more, so as not to affect her popularity of passers-by who had so hard to accumulate because of her weight loss.

"Boss Chen, have you invested in any new works recently?" After eating a few bites of food, Jia Ling pretended to ask without opinion.

"What's going on, Sister Ling, do you have any good work to recommend?"

Hearing Jia Ling say this, Chen Zhibin suddenly became interested, if he didn't guess wrong, Jia Ling obviously came to him with a purpose this time.

In fact, it is true that Jia Ling met Chen Zhibin for the first time, not at Bao Beier's wedding, but because of the other director's debut film "Secret Agent of Joy", which was also her first film and television work as the heroine.

And this drama was invested and produced by Chen Zhibin's Abin Venture Capital Company, so the purpose of Jia Ling's visit this time was not only to participate in the wedding of Shen Teng and Wang Qi, but also to invest in his own works by the way.

If you want to make your mother's story into a movie without changing it beyond recognition, Chen Zhibin, who is also an insider, is undoubtedly the best choice.

Because before this, Jia Ling had already investigated, Chen Zhibin is like a hands-off shopkeeper in the investment world, except for choosing to play a favorite role, he rarely points fingers at the film and television works invested by his company.

In addition, at Bao Beier's wedding, Chen Zhibin tried his best to save Liu Yan after falling into the water, which proved that his character is still quite good.

"Not really." Jia Ling shook his head and said, "But I have a script in my hand and want to find someone to invest, I don't know if Boss Chen has any intentions?" ”

"What script?" Chen Zhibin asked knowingly. If nothing else, this script should be "Hello, Li Huanying" directed and acted by her.

Although the box office of this movie did not exceed that of "Wolf Warrior 2", its investment amount was less than 100 million, and the rate of return was much higher than that of the former.

"Here." Jia Ling said and unzipped under the surprised eyes of Chen Zhibin and others, and took out the script that had been prepared long ago from his arms.

"Why are you still carrying it with you, Sister Ling?" Chang Yuan sighed.

"Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared." Jia Ling smiled.

"Professional." Chen Zhibin was also a little unexpected, and immediately gave Jia Ling a thumbs up after taking the script.

To be honest, he thought that Jia Ling would get it for himself now, or send him an electronic version, but he didn't expect the other party to carry it on his body, and when he heard Chen Zhibin ask what script he was, he immediately took it out of his arms.

"Laugh and laugh." Jia Ling said a little embarrassed. At Shen Teng's wedding, she was the first to invest in herself.

Of course, it is also the last one, unless Shen Teng marries again!

"Hi, Mom", Chen Zhibin looked at the name and immediately determined that this script was the prototype of "Hello, Li Huanying".

In the previous life, this movie was launched in 2019 and released in 2021, but its preparation time was indeed around 2016.

There is no problem with the time, and Jia Ling has only directed this movie, so he must not be wrong.

Soon, Chen Zhibin put down his chopsticks and read a few paragraphs with a serious face.

Seeing this, Jia Ling next to him also put down the chopsticks in his hand, paying attention to the changes in his expression throughout the whole process, and he was quite nervous in his heart.

"How about Boss Chen?" She asked cautiously. I am afraid that because of disturbing Chen Zhibin, my work will be nipped in the bud.

Hearing this, Chen Zhibin did not answer directly, but after closing the script, he pondered for a few seconds before raising his head again.

"How much investment do you need, Sister Ling?" He asked.

"Probably millions." Jia Ling is not very sure, and the amount he said is also very conservative, for fear that he will accidentally say too much and scare Chen Zhibin away.

"The story is very good and touching, I voted." Chen Zhibin said directly to the point.

"Huh?" Jia Ling was obviously a little confused, she had to think about what Chen Zhibin was thinking about, but she didn't expect the other party to be so direct, after all, he was a rookie director who had not yet budded, so she was caught off guard.

Of course, Chen Zhibin was able to take a fancy to the script, and Jia Ling was still very happy in his heart, after all, this was an adaptation of the story about his mother.

It's just a pity that in order to impress Chen Zhibin, a lot of rhetoric was prepared in his mind, but now the words are on his lips, but he can't use them at all.

"That's it?" Chang Yuan and Wang Chengsi, who were at the same table, were also a little confused, they knew that Chen Zhibin was generous, but they didn't expect it to be so big.

However, thinking about the fact that when the other party was filming "Charlotte's Troubles", he brought capital into the group, and later directly before the release, he financed and invested in Happy Twist Company, which seems to be not so difficult to accept.

"That, Mr. Chen, in fact, we also have a dream of directing."

As long as Chen Zhibin is willing to invest money, Chang Yuan and Wang Chengsi feel that they can also try to write a script.

After all, how can an actor have a high status as a director.

"I see that you two have a hard time getting on the kang!" Song Yang debunked beside him.

However, seeing Chen Zhibin's happiness, he felt that after the release of "Iron Fist of Shame", he could start preparing for the second movie.

rushed to the original crew to reimburse the plane ticket money and hotel expenses, Chen Zhibin has to invest tens of millions of dollars in himself!

"Thank you so much, Boss Chen's discernment, and when the movie is made, he will definitely be able to make a lot of money."

Jia Ling was ecstatic, and she wanted to drink a few with Chen Zhibin with a vigorous toast, and the level of enthusiasm was almost like drinking a glass of wine directly.

"You're welcome Sister Ling, if you really thank me, just try to make a good movie." Chen Zhibin's requirements are not high, as long as they are the same, the box office of 5.4 billion is indeed enough for him to make a lot of money.

"Don't worry about this, I definitely can't let you down." Jia Ling expressed her determination in time, after all, Chen Zhibin is only verbally agreeing now, and she has not really invested yet, so she can't get carried away.

"There is another thing, Sister Ling, when casting, the role of male number one was left to me, it's not a big problem, right?" Chen Zhibin asked.

According to the timeline in the film, the age of the character Shen Guanglin itself is not very old, so it is indeed a little old for Uncle Shen to play Shen Teng.

Fans are just preconceived about it, and they will feel that the character image itself is like this, but in fact, the actor does not match the character itself.

In addition, there is also "The Richest Man in Xihong City" produced by Happy Twist, and the role of Wang Duoyu itself can also be a little younger, but because Shen Teng was thirty-seven or eighteen when he filmed this movie, it was the time when he was middle-aged and fat, so the age in the film was adjusted with the actor.

And if Chen Zhibin chooses to act, not only will it not look abrupt, but it can be regarded as a greater restoration of the age of the character itself.

"No, do you want to play my father's rival?" Jia Ling asked.

"What's wrong? Can't you, Sister Ling? Chen Zhibin asked rhetorically.

"Hmm...... It's not impossible. After thinking about it, Jia Ling nodded immediately, Chen Zhibin promised to invest so simply, if she didn't go back from her own role, she would be a little uneasy about taking this investment.

What's more, Jia Ling's hostess is Zhang Xiaofei, with Chen Zhibin's age and image, playing this role is indeed more suitable than Shen Teng.

After Jia Ling got up and left excitedly, Wang Zhi next to him secretly poked Chen Zhibin and asked, "Is this script really as good as you say?" ”

"No, it's average, I can't say it's bad, but it's not particularly bad either." Chen Zhibin shook his head, the film works of "Hello, Li Huanying" are indeed average, and the box office can be so high because of "time", "location", "people", plus the final turning point.

Towards the end of the movie, Jia Ling found that the mother she met when she traveled back was not her mother when she was young, but her mother who had passed away was also reborn after her death.

This should be the only place in this movie that is different from other ordinary time-traveling movies.

In addition, because of catching up with the first Spring Festival stall after the epidemic was lifted, it won a box office of 5.4 billion, surpassing "Detective Chinatown 3" in the same period, and almost comparable to "Wolf Warrior 2" directed and starring Wu Jing.

Therefore, it is not too much to say that "Hello, Li Huanying" happened to catch up with "time", "location", and "people".

"Then you still promised so happily!" Wang Zhi was a little speechless.

"You don't understand." Chen Zhibin smiled mysteriously and said, "You don't have to worry about this, you will understand when the time comes." ”

"Again, how can I understand if you don't say it?" Wang Zhi felt that Chen Zhibin was fooling herself like this every time, and she would feel mysterious at first, but now that she thought about it carefully, she seriously suspected that the other party was saying that she was stupid in disguise.

"You don't understand." Chen Zhibin responded.

"Tell me, what if I get it." Wang Zhi said.

"Then I can't say anything."

Wang Zhi: "......"

After the wedding of Shen Teng and Wang Qi, Wang Zhi returned to the crew to film, and Chen Zhibin came to each other's residence in Kyoto with Liu Tao.

"Why don't you go to the hotel, Sister Tao?" Chen Zhibin proposed.

"No, why go to the hotel if you have a place to stay!" Liu Tao still likes the feeling of being at home, and it is uncomfortable to live in a hotel, after all, it is an unfamiliar environment.

"Okay." Chen Zhibin could only nod helplessly, this place is a little simple, but it is already very good compared to ordinary families.

"I miss you for so long." After Liu Tao closed the door, he hugged Chen Zhibin.

"I miss each other and I miss you too."

Chen Zhibin grabbed Liu Tao's waist and responded, when they were outside just now, they were both closed, but now they let go as soon as they entered the room.

"What do you think?" Liu Tao asked meaningfully.

"I want everything." Chen Zhibin replied.

"I don't believe it unless you prove it to me." Liu Tao responded.

"Okay, you touch it." Chen Zhibin said.

"Touch it, touch it, whoever is afraid of whom, you don't hide!" Liu Tao didn't hesitate at all, even if he started.

"Where to touch, I'll let you touch my heart." Chen Zhibin grabbed Liu Tao's dishonest hand and put it on his heart.

"Who wants to touch your heart."

Liu Tao is not interested in Chen Zhibin's heart, she is interested in Chen Zhibin's people.

After all, Chen Zhibin has so many people in his heart, he may not know which corner he will put it in, or it is more reliable to draw people.
