Chapter 633 The tree fell and the hozens scattered
What Zhuang Cheng is preparing is also a family comedy.
Looking at the synopsis of the story, it’s a routine where three couples break up, get back together, make a lot of noise, and end up happily reunited. The planned lineup: Director Zhang Jianting, starring Xu Guanjie, Zhong Zhentao, Chen Baiqiang, Ye Tong, Xia Wenxi, Li Lizhen.
Zhang Jianting filmed "Seven Days of Love" and "Two Wives in One House" for Legendary Pictures. The male lead was Zhong Zhentao, and the three actresses were from Legendary Pictures. This lineup is extremely logical, and Feng Bingzhong has no doubts.
He was even surprised by Zhuang Cheng''s generosity in inviting Xu Guanjie and Chen Baiqiang.
Xu Guanjie''s salary is second only to Cheng Long!
Feng Bingzhong made a rough calculation based on this lineup: "It needs a budget of at least 6 million, which is quite cruel! Legendary Pictures is really getting better and dares to invest in such a large production."
Comparing it to Huang Baiming''s one again, I can''t see it.
From face to face, Zhuang Cheng''s drama is most suitable for the Spring Festival, and Huang Baiming can only be wronged.
Feng Bingzhong thought about it and realized that Huang Baiming''s quality was pretty good. It would be a pity not to film it. He could put it on the Christmas show and it would still be a family fun. But he didn''t say it directly. If he said it directly, the other party would definitely be dissatisfied.
"Hey, how about that movie?"
"Don''t worry, you''d better finish filming as soon as possible. We will promote it vigorously this time!"
He also made a phone call to appease Huang Baiming. His actual idea was to let the other party finish the film, and at the end of the year, he would tell him that the plan had changed and it would be better to put it on Christmas.
When there are many movies and few theaters, it is a buyer''s market. In turn, it''s a seller''s market.
Zhuang Cheng has proven his strength, at least stronger than Huang Baiming. After Feng Bingzhong weighed it, he still chose the former. After all, Huang Baiming is one of his own, and his own people can often be wronged.
…
Hong Kong has more than 230 islands, large and small, collectively known as the outlying island area.
Some are habitable, such as Lantau Island, Lamma Island, etc. Cheung Chau Island is also one of them.
There is a theater on Cheung Chau Island that opened in 1931. It has a traditional two-story structure. The key is that it comes with a small studio for filming in the outlying island area.
Recently, this small studio was rented and a seven-day contract was signed.
The confidentiality measures are very good. No one knows what is going on inside. They only know that the male protagonist is a foreigner and the heroine is an innocent and cute little girl who looks like a Japanese woman.
"I can''t do it anymore! Change the shift!"
At this moment, a staff member suddenly ran out in a hurry, with a physiological red color on his face.
A colleague who was smoking outside shouted: "Aren''t you? It''s only 20 minutes?"
"No, no, it''s too exciting!"
"What are you filming now?"
"Tie it up! Tied it up!"
Hiss!
The colleague outside took a sip of Flower and Snake and threw away the cigarette butt: "I''m going to change my shift!"
He rushed in with dignity, and saw that the small studio was decorated with the interior of a small wooden house, with messy things and a simple bed. There were not many staff members, and Zhuang Cheng was also watching.
The American guy, who had a big belly, was sitting on a chair drinking beer. He stepped on her head and cursed in English.
Tadokoro Yumiko was very dedicated. She was curled up on the ground and sobbing. She was so pitiful...
oops!
This man was stimulated as soon as he came in. He was young and in good health.
They all have no experience. Hong Kong has only experienced Li Hanxiang''s romantic movies, and it has not yet reached the heyday of C-level films. How have they ever seen such a thing? This technique of expression is bolder than mere nudity.
“…”
After looking at this man for a while, he felt a little unbearable. He looked at his colleagues who were also supporting him, and looked at Zhuang Cheng whose expression remained unchanged. He couldn''t help but admire him: He is indeed a boss, and he is very determined...
"cough!"
Zhuang Chengqiang coughed calmly and went out casually, sighing in his heart: "It''s incredible! Let alone the United States, if this thing is released in Hong Kong, it will have a box office of at least 20 million!"
Mr. Chen is really talented in literature, martial arts, coquettishness and romance. How did he come up with this?
During the filming of "The Forbidden Room", he took the time to come and have a look and gained a lot of insights. Director Huang Tailai was so inspired that he exposed his dark side and actively offered many opinions to make the effect more sinister.
These people all have pseudonyms. Hiding on an island is a perfect place to film anti-pornography and illegal activities.
However, Zhuang Cheng is very satisfied with this place and can rent it for a long time if he shoots again in the future. This film was said to be made into a videotape, specially for sale in the United States. He didn''t know how to operate it, but Mr. Chen was willing to make it, and the profits would be huge.
After Zhuang Cheng finished his visit, he left Cheung Chau Island and returned to Hong Kong and Kowloon.
As soon as I got back, I received a message from Feng Bingzhong saying that the Spring Festival stall was OK!
"Thank you, happy working with you!"
"ha!"
Zhuang Cheng wanted to laugh three times. There was no Spring Festival stall, it was all just to fool people, just to mess with Huang Baiming. The more experience he has, the more disenchanted he becomes with big shots. Dute Niang is a member of the Caotai team.
…
People in Xinyi City are now in panic.
The wheat crops have stopped coming, and Feng Bingzhong personally came to comfort him, but the effect was very little. There are well-informed people everywhere. It is said that the big boss Lei Juekun angrily scolded Mai Jia, and it also involved shares.
The bald man was so angry that he simply went to Japan and waited there for the filming of "Lucky Star".
The boss didn''t come, and the employees were happily fishing. One person was reading the newspaper, suddenly frowned, and said after a few seconds: "That''s not right! Wasn''t the Spring Festival slot reserved for Mr. Huang? Why was it given to Legendary Pictures?"
"What Legendary Pictures?"
Everyone came over one after another, but it was an interview from Zhuang Cheng.
"There are plans for two movies next. "Mr. Zombie" is so popular, of course I won''t give it up. I''m going to make another zombie movie... With Uncle Nine, how would you watch it without Uncle Nine?
The other one is a comedy, and I have already set my sights on the Spring Festival movie... I know that the Spring Festival movie is a battleground, and only those who can dominate the Spring Festival movie will be considered winners. Legendary Pictures has achieved some results, and I want to give it a try. I have We have made an agreement with Princess Jin and ask for your support..."
The employees looked at each other, and a thought passed through each other''s eyes. Different from the past, I''m afraid this time it''s really going to be doomed!
"Hey, hey, do you have any connections in Jiahe? Are you still lacking someone? Will you take me with you when you go there?"
"If Shaw Brothers is declining, why not go to TVB... Wu Siyuan and Chen Xunqi''s company?"
"Hey, how about the leftists? The leftists get good treatment and I heard they even share apartments. I can be patriotic too!"
"What a beautiful idea. We want talents, not idiots! Are you qualified?"
…
"Mr. Feng, you are going too far!"
"Listen to my explanation!"
"It doesn''t matter if you tell me the truth. I was in the ring with Zhuang Cheng, and I gave up because I was not strong enough. Why did you lie to me... No need to tell me, I don''t want to meet either, that''s it!"
Huang Baiming prides himself on being an educated man, and rarely loses his temper. His bookish face turns red and his glasses are crooked.
Gao Zhisen also looked angry: "You clearly don''t take us seriously!"
"They want Zhuang Cheng, and they want us! After we finish filming the film and postpone it, they give us a non-Spring Festival schedule, and we have no choice but to agree to it!"
"Then shall we film now?"
"Why film in this situation? Let Princess Jin make money after filming?"
Huang Baiming adjusted his glasses and said cruelly: "When a tree falls, the monkey will scatter. They are all greedy for money. Don''t laugh at anyone. If he is unkind, don''t blame me for being unjust!"
…
"This makes no sense. We are in a cooperative relationship. You still care about what I say to the media? What you do to Huang Baiming is your business. I don''t know your inside story. Does it have anything to do with me? It''s inexplicable!"
Snap!
Zhuang Cheng didn''t give Feng Bingzhong a good temper and hung up directly.
Feng Bingzhong finally couldn''t stand it any longer.
He felt that a dark cloud was approaching silently, and by the time he noticed it, it was already covering his head. When Mai Jia defected to the enemy, Zhuang Cheng played a trick on him. He would not naively think it was a coincidence.
One thing is a coincidence, two things are a coincidence?
Someone is clearly causing trouble!
Feng Bingzhong thought for a while, and a name suddenly jumped out of his mind.
