Entertainment, I just like making movies

Mid-November.

The filming of "The Unknown" is nearing completion.

The crew was on holiday today, and Fang Ziheng drove a van belonging to the crew to the airport to pick him up.

The person being picked up at the airport was none other than the funny guy Deng Chao.

This guy finished his part and left the crew first. It was during the construction period, so the crew didn't hold a wrapping party for him alone.

Not only did I hear that the crew was about to wrap up filming, this guy wanted to come over and asked Fang Ziheng to pick him up in person.

You have been a good brother for many years, but if you don’t come to pick him up, I’m sorry for the brotherly relationship!

Oh shit!

This piece of shit!

If Sun Li hadn't been on the set, Fang Ziheng would have almost believed it.

As the van drove onto the airport expressway, a plane landed overhead with a rumble that shook the sky.

Chen Yu from China Film Group also went back a few days ago. When he left, he chatted with Fang Ziheng alone and revealed the release times of many movies during the Lunar New Year.

Fang Ziheng is also happy to have a good relationship with the other party. In the Chinese entertainment circle, China Film Group holds the orthodox position, and private companies are powerful, so he can only be his younger brother.

Chen Yu is young and energetic, and does not have the domineering style in the system. Fang Ziheng introduced Xu Zheng's "People on the Road" to him, which can be regarded as boosting his performance.

As for whether China Film can seize the distribution, Fang Ziheng is not sure.

Unlike the previous movie, "The Journey" was handed over to Guangxian Media for distribution this time.

The glamorous Lao Wang likes to make small fights. After learning the news through the head of the family, Xie Nan, he came to the door after smelling the smell.

Xu Zheng and Ning Hao were used to the joys and sorrows of life. When they heard about Guangxianhui's omni-channel promotion, they agreed without saying a word.

However, Guangxian is very good at publicity, and it is definitely not as good as China Film in terms of distribution. It is the kind of film that is hung up and beaten.

If Chen Yuzhen had fallen in love with "On the Road," and with the power of China Film Group, Lao Wang would probably have relaxed and given up some of his meat.

When Fang Zizheng wrote "The Unknown" before, he didn't think about cooperating with Guangxian.

Before Wanda entered the market and several major publishers formed a group, among private companies, Huayi and Guangxian were the only ones capable of omni-channel distribution.

Huayi has always been favored by theaters due to its old connections, the popularity of Feng Pants's movies, and being the leader of private enterprises.

Guangxian has good relations with many TV media, and Lao Wang himself has a background in news and publicity. He was originally a member of the system and had deep connections in theaters.

Ring ring ring.

The phone rang, Fang Ziheng opened the car door and saw Deng Chao dragging a suitcase and looking around not far away.

"Brother Chao, don't look. It's a hundred meters ahead on the left."

"Damn, you're just going to use this crappy car to pick me up, my brother?"

Deng Chaofeng rushed over, took off his sunglasses, walked around the van, and looked at Fang Ziheng with incredible eyes.

"I said, Lao Dengtou, what kind of bicycle do you want? It's not enough for me to pick you up!"

Fang Ziheng rolled his eyes, took the suitcase and put it in the car, snapped his fingers and said, "Hurry up and get in the car, I'll take you to open a chowder!"

"Chinese meat."

Deng Chao was stunned for a moment, rubbed his hands, and said timidly: "This is not good, if Sister Qi Li knows."

As he spoke, he showed an expectant smile!

Get out of here, uncle!

What are you thinking about?

When I talk about foreign food, I think of good things.

Fang Ziheng was speechless. He had been here in Yudu for more than a month, and he was still feeling uncomfortable.

"I said, Old Dengtou, where did you want to go? I meant to take you to take a bath and get a massage to relieve your fatigue."

"I'm just thinking about it day by day, but let me tell you, if you dare to feel sorry for Sister Li, I will definitely report you secretly."

The van started, and Fang Ziheng turned the steering wheel while seriously accusing Deng Chao of his bad intentions.

"comfortable"

In a high-end health club, Deng Chao was lying on the bed shirtless, while a young and beautiful lady was applying essential oil to his back.

Fang Ziheng was lying on another bed, holding a script in his right hand and stretching his left hand, placing it in the hands of a young lady wearing a dark blue uniform, who was doing a Chinese massage.

The two of them are public figures after all. They choose regular massages and don't dare to do anything else.

It's just that Old Dengtou's voice is so captivating that it makes people want to kick him out of bed.

after an hour.

The young lady left the scene, and the two lay on the bed smoking and chatting.

"Brother Chao, are you busy next year?"

"Just so so, what? Do you have a notebook again?"

"As long as you're not busy."

Fang Ziheng flicked the ashes from his cigarette and handed the script in his hand to Deng Chao.

"Two police characters, which one do you like?"

"police?"

Deng Chao opened the script and saw five bold characters printed on the first page.

Chinatown Detective!

"A suspense crime drama?"

With anticipation, Deng Chao browsed through the plot summary and found two police characters.

Quintai, male, 38 years old, Thai-Chinese, detective of Bangkok Police Department, careless in work, naughty character, lustful and unclean, timid and righteous at heart, he is very lucky and well respected by his subordinates figure.

Huang Landeng, male, 35 years old, Thai-Chinese, an outstanding detective of the Bangkok Police Department, known as the Iron-Blooded Detective, is full of energy, high IQ, cheerful temperament, exaggerated expressions when talking and doing, and is not born with good luck. He is a multi-tasking person. What a mistake, a positive person who desperately wants to be on top.

Both characters are outstanding.

Deng Chao carefully considered and compared the two characters, put them into his own body, and looked for their strengths, weaknesses, and character compatibility.

Seeing that he was deep in thought, Fang Ziheng did not rush him.

He wrote the script "Detective Chinatown" not long ago. The script is undoubtedly very good, and the movie in the previous life was also a sensation when it was released and sold well at the box office.

"Detective Chinatown" truly belongs to the top series of Chinese-language films.

Next year, the first year after the Olympics, the movie market will explode, with the big bad movie Red Cliff taking 370 million at the box office.

Yes, it’s the one called ‘Cute Meng Stand Up’.

It's a terrible movie, and it achieved this at the box office despite the poor reputation of the previous movie.

Although the two parts of Red Cliff definitely lost all their money, Wu Baige also lost his reputation.

But that's not what Fang Ziheng looks at. What he looks at is the overall market tolerance and next year's box office potential.

When "Detective Chinatown" was released in 2009, it was all about dimensionality reduction and reaching the highest peak of domestic films in one fell swoop.

Otherwise, when Avatar comes out in 10 years, it will be Spartan.

Moreover, "Detective Chinatown" is a series of movies. If the first movie explodes in word-of-mouth and box office, the second movie will only become even more popular.

Fang Ziheng considered everything, Hengyu Media needed "Detective Chinatown", and as a director, he also needed this movie to be released in advance.

As for Deng Chao, on the one hand, he is a fellow countryman, and his acting skills and comedy are not bad.

On the other hand, the two police characters are secondary characters in the play, and their replacement will not affect the main body of the film.

In "Detective Chinatown", the real soul character is Bao Qiang, and even Liu Haoran has some elements of a tool man in the first part.

Except for Baoqiang, all other characters can be replaced.

After much thought, Fang Ziheng decided to film "Detective Chinatown" next year, seize the opportunity first, and hold this series firmly in his hands.

a long time

Deng Chao raised his head, rubbed the script in his hand, his eyes were shining, and said: "Zi Heng, I want to play the role of Huang Landeng!"

"Oh why?" Fang Ziheng was a little surprised and asked as he sat upright.

"The role of Taikun is quite greasy. My age and appearance don't fit the role well enough."

"Rather than letting me take the role, it's better to choose an actor who naturally fits the role."

"Brother, I took a look. Your movie was shot entirely in Thailand, so the investment must be quite large."

“You must be careful when choosing a role!”

Deng Chao said the last sentence extremely seriously.

"Okay, then Huang Landeng."

Old Dengtou is very sober and knows his own advantages. He is indeed a good actor in film and television creation.

After chatting for a while, the two rushed back to the set before evening.
