Entertainment, I just like making movies

………

The starting point is the West Lake Sword Talk.

Fang Ziheng, Wu Wenhui and others had a very pleasant chat.

The two parties had in-depth communication on the game, film and television, and animation adaptations of the novel, and discussed in detail the peripheral development of online works.

Finally, Wu Wenhui agreed to invest 50 million yuan in Hengyu Media to acquire 10% of the shares of Qidian Chinese Network.

After Shanda invested 200 million yuan, the total valuation of the Qidian Chinese website in 2009 has approached 400 million yuan.

When the smart era arrives next year, in just two years, the valuation of Qidian Chinese Network has doubled, growing to more than 3 billion in one fell swoop.

It is a very cost-effective investment for Fang Ziheng to buy it now.

Of course, Wu Wenhui cannot personally make the decision on this matter.

Wu Wenhui and his team currently own less than 30% of the shares in Qidian. If they want to achieve this, they need to further communicate with Shanda's senior management.

Fang Ziheng was not too worried about communicating with Shanda.

Chen Tianqiao went to Singapore to recuperate. Shanda's top management is currently in turmoil, and news will soon spread that it will abandon various businesses.

When the time comes, Fang Ziheng and Wu Wenhui will work together to make Qidian independent from Shanda.

The two people's ideas hit it off immediately.

Fang Ziheng needs to add knowledge to Hengyu Media and lay a solid foundation for the later entertainment industry chain.

Wu Wenhui and his team urgently need to develop peripheral copyrights for the novel.

Whether it is novel publishing, game, film and television adaptation, even if it is just opening up one more channel, it can provide a more stable and reliable source of income for Qidian's tens of thousands of authors.

The development of an online literature platform requires a large number of stable authors.

How to provide more income for online article authors is currently a problem that Qidian’s senior management needs to solve.

………

After staying in Hangzhou for a day, Fang Ziheng, Lin Feifei and Wen Muye drove to Hengdian.

Hengyu Media, Hao Yi, director of the film production department, and Li Xiaoshu, deputy director of the film and television production department, also flew over from the imperial capital.

The post-production of "Detective Chinatown" has been completed, and "Four Famous Catchers", as Hengyu's new project, has been put on the company's table in advance.

"Mr. Fang, Mr. Lin, everyone, please come this way!"

At the entrance of the hotel, Li Xiang, director of the filming equipment department, came out to greet him with several employees from the props department.

Li Xiang said hello, handed over a thick prop form, and said: "Mr. Fang, the first three phases of the costumes for "Four Famous Catchers" and "Young Bao Zheng" have been completed and are being inspected. library."

"How many phases of construction are there in the first three phases?"

Fang Ziheng took the form, scanned it casually, and asked lightly.

"There are six issues in total. Mr. Fang, you said that "Four Famous Catchers" is a series of movies. After discussion with our production equipment department, we asked our partners to first produce the service of the first two movies."

"Eat first. After dinner, we'll go over and take a look."

Fang Ziheng nodded and stepped into the hotel first.

At the dinner table, no one drank because they had something to do in the afternoon.

At the same time, several executives were also a little confused as to why Fang Ziheng attached so much importance to the service of "Four Famous Catchers".

There are people from the filming equipment department supervising the scene. Do they need to come here on their own?

In this regard, Fang Ziheng slightly revealed that the investment in "Four Famous Catchers" may be increased.

He didn't say how much he would add, but he will decide when the movie is officially approved!

Just this sentence made everyone cheer up instantly.

Invest more!

real or fake!

Could it be that the company is preparing to start shooting big-cast movies and large-scale costume blockbusters?

Everyone stared at Fang Ziheng expectantly with their eyes widened.

Among the people present, except for Lin Feifei who had heard a little about it, the others, even Wen Muye, didn't know much about it.

According to Hengyu's strategic plan, the "Four Famous Catchers" series will be launched next year, with a total investment of 300 million RMB.

The production budget is 100 million per film!

Now, the boss suddenly said that the investment will be increased!

Tsk tsk

Hengyu Media definitely wants to develop in the direction of an entertainment giant and a movie tycoon.

Fang Ziheng smiled slightly and invited everyone to eat.

He has already shouted the slogan of one billion.

Both China Film and Hua Yi are currently eyeing the "Four Famous Catchers" project. After "Tang Detective" is released, they will send people over to discuss it in detail.

Unless "Tang Detective" hits the market, these two families will retreat.

"Tang Detective" hits the streets, is it possible?

In the afternoon, Fang Ziheng and others came to the attached block behind Hengdian Commercial Street.

This area operates many warehouses and film and television workshops.

Hengyu Filming Equipment Department also purchased two medium-sized warehouses here.

The warehouse is filled with a wide variety of clothing, weapons, and utensils used by ancient people.

"Mr. Fang, Mr. Lin, these are the costumes and weapons used by the actors of "Four Famous Catchers".

Li Xiang turned on the lights in the warehouse, pointed at the rows of exquisite costumes and said: "The costumes in "Four Famous Catchers" are divided into 5 major categories and 12 minor categories."

"Director Li, please explain in detail what categories there are."

Lin Feifei was in good spirits. She walked to a row of clothes racks and kept stroking an exquisite black robe with red trim.

"Okay, Mr. Lin!"

Li Xiang nodded, took a detailed prop form from the staff behind him, and introduced it carefully.

There are five major categories of servicemen: court officials, Jianghu people, common people, scholars and merchants, and the most important six-door policemen.

The 12 sub-categories are further divided into: male and female protagonists, emperors, officials, villain bosses, important characters in the case, sects, soldiers, middle-level villains, rural people, urban people, queens of famous families, beautiful women and ladies.

Having said this, Li Xiang paused, took down the black and red robe from the hanger, and said with a hint of pride: "This dress is a gorgeous dress specially made for the heroine.

No matter whether the heroine is a six-door person or a villain BooS, this dress is suitable for her when she acts alone. "

Fang Ziheng nodded secretly, without making any further comments, and walked through the clothes racks to several rows of weapons.

On the weapons rack, there are rows of various weapons imitated in plastic.

Long sword, scimitar, blood moon hook, axe, iron fist glove and so on.

He reached out and picked up a cold light sword and played two sword flowers.

The weight is appropriate, no less than a sword used for martial arts.

This sword has a simple shape, with a layer of white light on both sides of the blade. When viewed from a distance, it gleams with cold light and is extremely sharp.

Afterwards, Fang Ziheng carefully inspected other props.

For example, the wheel used by Ruthless in the play, the iron fist used by Iron Hand, the belt badge and official hat worn by the six-door policeman, and the tableware used by the characters in the plot to eat, etc.

In a big-cast costume blockbuster, in addition to the script and actors, serving the Tao is also a top priority.

Walking out of the warehouse door, Fang Ziheng smiled with satisfaction, patted Li Xiang on the shoulder, and asked: "How long will it take to complete all the production of Fu Hua Dao?"

"President Fang, if it is all completed, it will take at least half a year."

"If the company needs it, I will urge the partners to speed up the progress."

"No need to rush, quality comes first."

Fang Ziheng waved his hand and said solemnly: "The quality of the props must be ensured. The filming equipment department must supervise it properly. If there is any problem, you are the only one I can ask!"

"Mr. Fang, please rest assured. I will send someone to be stationed in Hengdian to conduct regular spot checks on the production process of our partners."

Li Xiang straightened up sharply and issued a military order!

After checking the service road of "Four Famous Catchers", everyone came to Hengdian Qinglong Street.

Qinglong Street belongs to the Ming and Qing Dynasty architecture, and many martial arts and costume movies and TV dramas were filmed on this street.

Tourists on the street are all wearing ancient clothes, trying to try their luck, and being photographed by a crew filming on the street, and they are dragged to play a certain role and appear on the scene.

Suddenly, Concubine Lin slapped her forehead, pointed to a Qing Dynasty building not far away, smiled and said: "Old Fang, "Step by Step" is currently being filmed there, should we go over and take a look?"
