Chapter 123 Inviting Liu Shishi
After discussing the specific details of the cooperation on "Assassin's Blade 2" with Lu Yang, the two went to China Film Group together to discuss it with Han Sanpin.
China Film Corporation owns half of the copyright of "The Blade of the Assassin", so it is impossible to bypass the other party when making a sequel.
China Film Building, Han Sanpin’s office.
Han Sanpin, Yang Hao, and Lu Yang sat on the sofa, drinking tea and talking about business.
"Third Master, this is the situation. What do you think?" Yang Hao directly told the other party the entire project of "Assassin Spring Blade 2" and then waited for the other party's reply.
When Han Sanpin heard Yang Hao say that they were starting the sequel to "The Blade of the Assassin" now, he was a little stunned. Even though he had been in the film and television industry for a long time, he had never encountered a sequel project being started before the previous film was released.
"Isn't the risk too great?" Thinking of this, Han Sanpin hesitated. He would retire in two months, so there was no need to take the risk. Retiring safely was the safest option.
But then I thought, Yang Hao has never lost a single investment in film and television. Why is the other party so eager to launch the sequel to "The Blade of the Assassin"? Does he think highly of this project?
Thinking of this, Han Sanpin put down the teacup in his hand and stared at Yang Hao carefully for a few seconds.
Yang Hao looked at Han Sanpin with a smile on his face, not at all stage frightened.
On Yang Hao's face, Han Sanpin saw youthful vitality, calmness, and high confidence.
From "BJ Meets Seattle" to "Charlotte's Troubles" and then to "The Richest Tomato", Yang Hao is always so confident.
Seeing Yang Hao's confident look, Han Sanpin felt very relieved at this moment. He had a strong feeling that this project would definitely make money.
"China Film has invested in this project," Han Sanpin thought for ten seconds and said in a loud voice.
It’s not just that I think the project "Assassin's Blade 2" is really good, the most important thing is that I value Yang Hao as a person.
The producer of "The Richest Tomato" is his daughter, and Yang Hao is the director of this film. The two are very close. Just because of this relationship, he wants to help Yang Hao again before he retires.
He now admires Yang Hao more and more. In Yang Hao, he sees infinite possibilities for the future.
To describe Yang Hao in one sentence, it is "a dragon hidden in the abyss, surely soaring into the sky."
Han Sanpin continued: "In principle, I agree with the project of "The Blade of the Assassin 2", but I will retire in two months. You'd better find Ci Peikang and President Ci to discuss it."
Hearing Han Sanpin say this, Yang Hao and Lu Yang looked at each other and realized that Ci Peikang would be Han Sanpin's successor in the future.
After walking out of Han Sanpin's office, Yang Hao and Lu Yang immediately went to Ci Peikang's office. The other party received Yang Hao and Lu Yang warmly and expressed support for the project "Asian Knife 2".
After all, the decision was made when Han Sanpin was about to retire. For this reason, Ci Peikang would not oppose this project.

Now that we have finalized the general contract for "Blade Identity 2", we are just waiting for Lu Yang to write the script for the sequel so that we can start filming the project.
After walking out of the China Film Building, Lu Yang still felt a little dizzy.
Even now he still finds it hard to believe that the project of "Assassin's Blade 2" was finalized.
"Blade Identity 2" is just a blank slate, there is nothing at all.
There was no script, no storyboard, and even the actors hadn't been finalized. It was obviously an unreliable project. How could anyone have expected it to be successful?
Thinking back to when he was making "The Blade of the Assassin 1", he begged everyone for investment but couldn't get any. He didn't expect that less than a year later, it was so easy to get investment and negotiate projects.
Looking at Yang Hao beside him, he found that his junior brother was really different now. When Yang Hao invested in "Embroidered Spring Blade 1", he was just a rookie in the entertainment industry. He didn't expect that in just one year, his junior brother would have the potential to become a big boss in the entertainment industry.
It's really so impressive that just by relying on the name Yang Hao, he can attract investment now.
"Brother, I'm going to require you to take more care of the script and get it done as soon as possible." After finishing the important matter and about to part with Lu Yang, Yang Hao did not forget to remind him.
"Yes, I know. I have had the idea for the sequel to 'The Blade of the Assassin' for a long time. I will definitely finish the script as soon as possible and won't delay anything," Lu Yang assured, patting his chest in response to Yang Hao's instructions.

Since filming "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" and "Startling by Each Step", Liu Shishi's career has been developing smoothly and she has firmly established herself as a top actress.
Especially in 2013, Southern Entertainment Weekly selected Liu Shishi, Da Mimi, baby, and Ni Ni as the "Four Little Flowers".
In the field of TV dramas, Liu Shishi has reached the peak of her career, but her career has reached a bottleneck.
If you want to make another breakthrough, you must make a difference in the film industry.
Liu Shishi has a very elegant temperament and demeanor. People who don't know her always think she is pretentious. In fact, all this is due to her experience of practicing ballet since childhood.
Although she has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, she still has not lost her basic ballet skills. At this moment, she is in the training room, practicing the high-leg raise movement.
"Senior Sister Shishi, good news! Good news!" Just when Liu Shishi was practicing basic skills in the training room, her little assistant ran over excitedly.
This is an assistant who has been with her for several years and is quite trusted by Liu Shishi. Usually, some work invitations are handled by this little assistant.
"What's the matter?" Seeing her young assistant's excited look, Liu Shishi finished her exercise, put down her legs, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and asked her assistant with a smile.
"Hehe! Senior sister, haven't you always wanted to develop in the film industry recently? Now a movie has found you," the young assistant said excitedly.
When Liu Shishi heard her assistant say that there was a movie coming up, she also became interested.
"what movie?".
"Here!", the assistant handed the phone to Liu Shishi.
I took the phone, turned on the screen, and what I saw was my business WeChat message interface.
In the WeChat message, there is a long string of text introduction.
"Knife of the Assassin 2", she had no impression of the movie title.
She didn’t know director Lu Yang either, and Liu Shishi was a little disappointed seeing this.
However, thinking about how excited his assistant was just now, he knew that this movie must have some background, otherwise his assistant would not be in that state just now.
Sure enough, when I looked further back, I saw the words "Yang Hao".
The male lead is Yang Hao.
Investor Yang Hao.
Seeing this, Liu Shishi's pupils suddenly contracted and her expression became solemn.
After the two hit movies "Charlotte's Troubles" and "The Richest Tomato", two Spring Festival box office champions and the achievement of double crown, who in the entertainment industry doesn't know Yang Hao?
