Chapter 110 (2)
Wu Ji looked at Zhang Shaoyu in confusion, hoping to find an answer from him, but Zhang Shaoyu ignored him and quickly said to Li Wei: "This is a foregone conclusion. With Director Wu's experience in commercial films directed by so many years, and the original work has a wide mass base on the Internet, it is difficult for "Evil God" to be sold as long as it is shot."
Zhang Shaoyu's words were not intentionally making Li Wei happy. "The Evil God" has become a big hit on the Internet, which means it is famous. If you cast it into a movie, you will definitely have an incomparable advantage in other movies.
Seeing Li Wei pondering and thinking hard, Zhang Shaoyu struck while the iron was hot and continued, "Westbrook, this matter is ready-made cheap, think about it carefully." After saying that, he turned his head and smiled, and blinked.
Wu Ji understood that it turned out that Zhang Shaoyu was urging the eldest master of Hongxi Group to let him invest in this movie. However, for anyone with a hundred million, it is not a small amount. Can he make a decision? Their old man is known for being smart and capable in the circle.
"Damn!" Li Wei suddenly slapped the table, shaking the cups, plates, bowls and cups on it jumped non-stop.
"Oh, Westbrook, what do you mean?" Zhang Shaoyu stared at Li Wei and waited for his next words.
Li Wei picked up a glass of wine on the table, raised his neck, poured it down, and then slapped his mouth and said to Zhang Shaoyu and Wu Ji: "I also think this matter is a big deal! With Director Wu's reputation and the reputation of the original work on the Internet, we will hype it up again and it will definitely be popular! Just..."
"Westbrook, we are all our own people, just say it clearly, and don't be whispered." Zhang Shaoyu said.
Li Wei nodded and said frankly: "Director Wu, Shaoyu, I think there is a risk in this matter, and the risk is not small. After all, there is a movie called "Inorganic" as a precedent."
At this time, Wu Ji took over the conversation: "Mr. Li, the failure of "Inorganic" is largely due to the script, and there are too many flaws. This time, we have experience, and the original author of "Evil God" has begun to significantly change the work, and I dare to guarantee it. The modified "Evil God" is definitely an excellent script. Now there is nothing, what is lacking is money!"
Li Wei suddenly leaned against the sofa, looking at the ceiling in a daze. Zhang Shaoyu knew that he must have struggled very much. At this time, don’t bother him, don’t lobby anymore, let him think clearly. How to say, 100 million is not a small amount.
Turning his head to look at Director Wu, the senior director who had been struggling in the circle for decades couldn't help but feel nervous now. He looked at Li Wei without blinking, waiting for his reply.
"Okay!" Li Wei suddenly sat up and said loudly: "I'll go back and discuss with our old man. I will try my best to convince him. In recent years, mainland movies have been done well, and our Hongxi Group must have its own place in the industry!"
Zhang Shaoyu was overjoyed when he heard this, hugged Li Wei and laughed: "Oh, brother, you have helped me a lot! Come on, I'll give you a cup!"
Li Wei picked up the wine glass and looked at Zhang Shaoyu with a smile on his face and said, "Boy, don't be too happy too early. It's still possible that my father is a smart person. If he doesn't think he's going to make trouble, this matter will be in vain."
Wu Ji also picked up the wine and smiled and said, "It's okay. As long as President Li is willing to talk, there will be hope for this matter. Come on, I thank you both."
That night, all three of them drank a lot. By then, Li Wei was already lying on the sofa and still moving. Zhang Shaoyu called the waitress and asked them to take good care of Li Wei, and then carried Wu Jixiang out of the club. Director Wu was drunk too much and he definitely couldn't drive. Zhang Shaoyu helped him into his car and drove towards his house.
Although I was not drunk yet, I was drunk a lot and didn't dare to drive the car too fast. Today's incident was a surprise. Hongxi Group was rich and powerful. As long as they were willing to invest, "Evil God" could still start filming.
"Shaoyu." Wu Ji suddenly screamed. Zhang Shaoyu turned his head and saw Wu Ji staring at him with wide eyes.
"What's wrong? Director Wu." Zhang Shaoyu asked while driving.
"Thank you." Wu Ji said seriously. Zhang Shaoyu smiled when he heard this. Director Wu has the kindness of promoting and teaching him, and he will repay him with a drop of water. This matter is just a bridge between him. Whether it will succeed or not is still unknown.
"That's all right. If you hadn't been to me, would I be today? I, Zhang Shaoyu, dared to do anything, but I, don't forget my roots." Zhang Shaoyu said with a smile.
Wu Ji looked at the student who was most proud of him and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. When he saw him, he was just a showman and had a talent. Now, he did not expect that he began to make a name for himself. He was twenty-two years old, young, worth millions, drove a BMW, and lived in a luxury house. These are actually superficial phenomena. The most important thing is that this student is not only talented, but also hardworking. A genius!
"Director Wu, as long as Li Wei decides the decision, there should be nothing wrong, right?" Zhang Shaoyu suddenly remembered this question and asked casually.
Wu Ji thought about it carefully, and suddenly slapped his forehead: "Oh, why did I forget this!" He shook his head repeatedly, as if he was regretting it.
Zhang Shaoyu was surprised. Could there be something else that has not been resolved?
"The original author of "The Evil God" has already had a intention to cooperate with Boda and is adapting the original work. This is a problem. If Boda catches the original work, let's just make a fuck!"
I'm so gloomy, why didn't I say this earlier? Yes, if other companies in Boda will invest in "The Evil God", they will definitely seize the original work. In this way, if there is no script, what should I shoot?
"Director Wu, don't worry, did the author sign a contract with Boda?" Zhang Shaoyu asked.
"No! I just have a verbally intention to cooperate and am adapting the script. But Boda and he have something to say first. Once Chen Bo knows that Hongxi Group will invest in a movie, he will definitely buy the script immediately and let our bamboo baskets be useless!" Wu Ji sighed.
After hearing this, Zhang Shaoyu was a little anxious. Why did he forget the most important thing? What should he do? Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his head and he remembered someone.
"Haha, Director Wu, leave this matter to me! Don't worry." Zhang Shaoyu said confidently.
Wu Ji looked at him strangely, could you have any solutions? But Zhang Shaoyu said that the secret of heaven should not be revealed, and just asked Director Wu to let the news be done.
After sending Wu Ji home, Zhang Shaoyu did not go back to the house he rented for him. Man, after drinking some wine, he had more thoughts in his mind.
I drove the car directly to the Orange Island Bridge and looked at the time. It was already late at night. The police uncle was already home and hugged his wife and children. After stopping by the bridge, Zhang Shaoyu got out of the car. He stood on the bridge, took out the cigarette he carried with him and lit one.
I haven't smoked for a long time, and it feels really wonderful. Take a deep breath and exhales smoke rings in the evening breeze. Under the bridge is the winding Xiangjiang River. In the night, it flows into the distance like a jade belt.
The evening breeze blows up Zhang Shaoyu's long hair, and a smile on his face, either because of happiness or comfort. Finally, he has come to this day. His efforts have not been in vain, and God has given him fair returns. Now, his future in acting is bright, and all this is achieved through his own hard work. God rewards hard work, and this is not wrong at all.
Suddenly remembering what happened just now, he took out his cell phone, searched for a long time, and finally turned out the person's phone. If you want to get the script, you have to rely on this person.
After a call, the other party did not answer and hung up directly. Zhang Shaoyu smiled and then called again. The other party must have seen an unfamiliar number, so he did not answer the phone.
It immediately became clear. Zhang Shaoyu leaned on the railing and asked with a smile: "Hey, Pingfan, do you know who I am?" That's right, the person Zhang Shaoyu was calling him was the online writer who posted a call on Baidu Yu Shao Tie Bar, Pingfanxin.
"Sorry, I can't hear it, are you?" Pingfanxin asked.
"I am Zhang Shaoyu." Zhang Shaoyu replied.
The other party was silent for a while, and then suddenly shouted: "Haha! Zhang Shaoyu is calling me, who will believe me if you say it! I thought you gave you the number, and you definitely didn't care. I didn't expect you to call me! Haha, Mr. Yu, what are you busy with recently? I saw in the news that you have become the spokesperson of a company and signed a contract with the company of the variety show king!"
The idol called himself, how many of the star-chasers in this world could enjoy such treatment. Ordinary people were so excited that they asked questions like a cannon, and did not give Zhang Shaoyu a chance to interrupt.
After he finished asking, Zhang Shaoyu replied: "Yes, man, I have something to do, I want to ask you for a favor."
"Say! Just say it! Don't say one, it's okay to have ten!" Pingfanxin seems to be a Northeastern person, and this Northeastern person is just generous.
"Well, thank you in advance. Do you know the book "Evil God"?" Zhang Shaoyu asked.
"Evil God? I know, it was written by my friend. I heard from him that he seemed to be selling it to a film company and preparing to make a movie! What's wrong?" Pingfanxin said.
When Zhang Shaoyu heard this, he was overjoyed. Since he was a friend, it would be easy to deal with. At that moment, he briefly told him about the matter and asked him to say hello to the author of "Evil God" and don't sell the script to Boda first. Pingfan agreed with great heart and said that he would definitely help.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Shaoyu finally breathed a sigh of relief. There was only so much he could help. The rest depends on Director Wu’s own luck.
According to Zhang Shaoyu's own guess, Li Wei's hope of success is at least 50%. Firstly, Director Wu is a famous commercial film director in the circle, and all his past works have achieved good results, which is the most powerful guarantee. Moreover, this movie has too many topics to speculate on news, which can create a trend of becoming popular before filming. Secondly, according to Director Wu himself, the choice of actors is spread throughout the mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and South Korea.
Judging from Director Wu’s previous filming habits, he must choose a popular big name, which undoubtedly has a strong box office appeal. The boss of Hongxi Group will not be unaware of this.
The next day, Zhang Shaoyu still got up early as usual, practicing boxing and footwork, and then raising his throat. This has become a part of his life. Once a habit is formed, it will be difficult to change.
I have my own drama this morning, so I have to rush to the crew, and in the afternoon I have to go to Hunan TV to record the program "Celebrity Face to Face". I'm so busy today.
After breakfast, the two brothers rushed to today's shooting site. Today we were filming indoor scenes without having to bask in the sun. The location was in a building on Bayi East Road. Because the crew rented it temporarily, we had to hurry up.
When Zhang Shaoyu arrived, the crew had not arrived yet, and the male and female protagonists had not arrived yet. To be honest, the male and female protagonists were not as strict as Zhang Shaoyuhong. But they were very arrogant and never arrived on time. Zhang Shaoyu was used to seeing it. It was not his own business, so we wouldn't worry about it.
