Chapter 283: Final Shooting and Instructions for Da Mi Mi

Every star has his or her own way of performing, and every star has his or her own screen image.

The script of "Zhu Xian" perfectly fits the screen image of Da Mimi and Liu Yifei.

In addition, Yang Hao acted with them every night and taught them acting skills.

To be honest with them, in the drama "Zhu Xian", the performances of Da Mimi and Liu Yifei are definitely much better than before.

All good things come to an end.

The filming of the drama "Zhu Xian" has finally been completed after nearly half a year from March to August.

Yang Hao carefully checked the shooting materials again and felt that there was no problem.

Then he took the loud speaker and announced loudly: "I declare that the filming of Zhu Xian has been completed."

"Wuhu~Wuhu..." Upon hearing that the crew had finished filming, all the behind-the-scenes workers cheered excitedly.

The leading actors, such as Liu Yifei, Da Mimi, etc., are of such high status that it is easy for them to ask for leave to go out as long as they inform in advance.

But those who work behind the scenes can almost only stay in the crew.

I come to work earlier than the actors in the morning and finish work later than the actors in the evening.

After working at such a high intensity for half a year, how could they not be excited when they heard that the filming was completed?
After returning the filming equipment and having a wrap-up banquet, everyone said goodbye one by one with reluctance.

After the wrap party, only Da Mimi and Liu Yifei remained.

"Yang Hao, when will Detective Chinatown 2 start filming?" There were no outsiders present, so Da Mimi spoke directly.

"Brother Baoqiang is dealing with a divorce lawsuit, so it will probably take some time."

"Okay, in that case, I have a few more announcements to make, so I'll leave first. If you have anything, please contact me on WeChat."

Looking at Da Mimi's hurriedly leaving, Yang Hao was about to say something.

Every time Yang Hao told Da Mimi to take fewer random notices and focus on polishing her acting skills, Da Mimi would nod in agreement.

But judging from his expression now, it is clear that he didn't listen.

Da Mimi had earlier made a movie called "BJ Meets Seattle" which changed her reputation a little bit, and then she starred in "Tiny Times 4: The Soul's End".

Later, he made another movie called "Knife of the Assassin 1" and then participated in "Jade Dynasty".

I just finished making another movie called "Zhu Xian" and now I don't know what crappy movie to take on.

I am really impressed by Da Mimi.

Build up the reputation of your own movie, and then ruin the reputation of other movies.

I feel like Da Mimi is a hopeless person.

If Da Mimi hadn't been following him all the time and had given birth to a child, Yang Hao really wouldn't want to take care of her.

"Fei Fei, what are your work arrangements recently?" Yang Hao asked, looking at Liu Yifei who had not left yet.

"I don't have any work arrangements. I plan to stay at home for two months, read some books, watch some TV series, and wait for the filming of Detective Chinatown 2 to start."

Seeing Liu Yifei's lazy look, Yang Hao felt that it would be better for women to be less career-oriented.

"Yang Hao, do you want you to help me set up a film and television company?" Liu Yifei suddenly said.

"Fei Fei? You want to open a film and television company?" Yang Hao asked in surprise.

I have never heard that Liu Yifei opened a film and television company in her previous life.

You have always been running your own studio, so why do you want to start a company now?
I thought Liu Yifei was a loser just now, but in just a few seconds I was slapped in the face.

"What? I can't start a company?" Liu Yifei thought Yang Hao looked down on her and said dissatisfiedly.

"Yes, of course!"

"But everything is fine, Feifei, why did you think of starting a company?" Yang Hao asked puzzled.

"Humph! Liu Shishi and Da Mimi both have their own companies, and I can't fall behind them."

Wow, Liu Yifei is so jealous.

"Fei Fei, it's not easy to open a film and television company. It's very troublesome to manage."

"I don't care. You have to help me open a film and television company and find a few artists who can be made famous. If Da Mimi can be Boss Yang, I can be Boss Liu." Liu Yifei added.

Hearing Liu Yifei's words, Yang Hao knew that Da Mimi must have used some words to stimulate this girl again.

"Okay, okay, I'll help you open a film and television company in a few days." Liu Yifei was very jealous, and Yang Hao had no choice but to give in to her temper.
-
A few days later, Yang Hao sat in his office, dealing with company-related matters.

At this moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open.

"Mimi, why are you here? Why didn't you say hello before you came?" Yang Hao said in surprise when he looked up and found that it was Mimi who pushed the door open.

"Why, you don't welcome me to your company?"

"Welcome, welcome, how dare I not welcome you?"

"What are you here for this time?" You just separated a few days ago, and now you suddenly come to my company, so you must have something important to do.

"Mr. Yang, let me introduce a friend to you."

Following Da Mimi's introduction, Yang Hao noticed that there was a man standing next to Da Mimi.

He was wearing a suit and tie, with a trendy side-parted hair, and he looked quite handsome.

But this height is too disabled.

She was a full head shorter than Da Mimi who was wearing high heels.

With such an unusual height and being friends with Da Mimi, Yang Hao knew who the visitor was without Da Mimi introducing him.

This must be Guo Xiaosi.

"Director Guo, I'm a fan of your books." Yang Hao stood up enthusiastically, walked up to Guo Xiaosi and shook hands with him.

"Director Yang, you're too polite. I'm your fan."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Guo Xiaosi got straight to the point.

"Director Yang, take a look at this script. Are you interested?"

As he spoke, Guo Xiaosi took out a script from his briefcase and handed it to him.

I am a bit confused about the other party's operation. Although Guo Xiaosi's "Tiny Times" and "Jade Dynasty" had bad reputations, these movies did make money, and a lot of it.

According to the rules of the entertainment industry, as long as a movie makes money, it is a good movie.

Logically speaking, Guo Xiaosi’s movies should not lack investment.

Why would he seek investment from me?

After pondering for a while, Yang Hao finally figured it out.

Although Guo Xiaosi's movies made money, they had a very bad reputation.

Yang Hao is known as a billionaire investor in the film industry, and almost all the movies invested by Yang Hao are both critically acclaimed and commercially successful.

Now, many movie fans have recognized Yang Hao. As long as it is a movie invested by Yang Hao, many fans will go to the cinema to watch it.

Guo Xiaosi wants to use his own reputation to boost his reputation.

The most crucial point is that the investor and distributor of Guo Xiaosi's "Tiny Times" and "Jade Dynasty" are both LeTV, but LeTV is now facing problems in its own development and has no energy to take care of Guo Xiaosi's movies.

In his previous life, after LeEco collapsed, Guo Xiaosi followed Enlight Media. But now that Maoyan has been taken over by himself, Enlight Media is far from being as powerful as it is in later generations.

So, Guo Xiaosi wants to become his disciple?

He lowered his head and glanced at the script handed to him by Guo Xiaosi.

The title of the script is "A River of Sadness".

Open the script and study it carefully.

It tells the story of school violence, and is quite depressing and suffocating.

It's an art film.

What can I say about this script?

The story is easy to get into and the plot is tear-jerking, but upon closer examination, the plot of this script does not stand up to scrutiny and feels like whining without reason.

Yang Haoming knew the shortcomings of this script, but he couldn't make any changes.

After all, this script is adapted from a novel. If it is changed significantly, it will have nothing to do with the novel "A River of Sorrow".

Although this movie has many shortcomings, the reputation of "A River of Sadness" is much better than "Tiny Times" and "Jade Dynasty".

The initial score on Douban was around 5.7.something, but it slowly dropped to over time.

Moreover, with an investment of 30 million and a box office of over 300 million, it can be considered a big hit.

He flipped through the pages again and his eyes fell on the director column.

Director: Luo Luo

At this time, Yang Hao remembered that although this movie was adapted from Guo Xiaosi's novel, he was only the screenwriter of the movie, and the director was someone else.

Luo Luo, like Guo Xiaosi, is both a writer and a screenwriter, and the two have known each other for more than ten years.

I have to say that Guo Xiaosi is very loyal. He entered the film and television industry with the help of Tiny Times, and he wanted to help his friend, so he gave "Sadness Is Like a River" to director Luo Luo.

The director is not Guo Xiaosi, the movie has a good reputation, and it will be a big hit at the box office. It was also introduced by Da Mimi.

There is no reason not to invest.

"Okay, I can invest in this movie."

"That's great. Mr. Yang, you will still need to take care of the distribution of this movie." Guo Xiaosi said respectfully.

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Yang Hao is a major shareholder of Maoyan and has good relations with China Film Group Wanda. With just a few words, he can increase the screening schedule of "A River of Sadness" by several percentage points.

This forced Guo Xiaosi to please.

After agreeing on the general framework of cooperation with Guo Xiaosi, Yang Hao was too lazy to take care of the remaining details and left them all to Yu Li.

After seeing Guo Xiaosi off, Da Mimi stood up with a smile on her face, went straight to Yang Hao's boss chair, sat on Yang Hao's thighs, and put her arms around Yang Hao's neck.

The little girl said in a soft voice, "Dear, how is it? Did I introduce you to a profitable business?"

Da Mimi raised her head proudly, with an expression that seemed to be asking for praise.

"Okay, you have done a great job. Mimi, what reward do you want?"

"How about I reward you with a few hundred million?" After saying that, Yang Hao pushed Da Mimi under the desk without waiting for her to react.

"Hmm~Hmm~" Da Mimi had such small arms and legs that she couldn't resist at all. Besides, it was not like she had never done this before. She just moved to a more exciting location. After struggling in vain, Da Mimi accepted her fate.

"Huh~" Yang Hao let out a long sigh and felt refreshed.

This office has experienced Zhao Liying and Da Mimi. If there is a chance, it should call Liu Yifei and Liu Shishi, the two 85 flowers, to try it out. It should not favor one over the other and should treat them equally.

"Dear, do you think I have a good eye for film and television investment? Do you want me to learn how to invest in movies like you?"

"Cough cough..." Yang Hao had just consumed a lot of water and was drinking water from the teacup. Suddenly, he heard Da Mimi say this. He choked and kept coughing, and almost couldn't hold the teacup.

No way! Sister Mi, you really have no self-awareness at all.

Among the 85 flowers, when it comes to vision in selecting films, Da Mimi deserves to be ranked last.

I really don't know how she has the courage to say such things.

"Mimi, you'd better focus on acting!" Yang Hao said helplessly.

I'm not afraid of Sister Mi acting in bad movies, I'm just afraid of Sister Mi investing in bad movies.

At least she can earn money by acting in bad movies, but if she invests in bad movies, even if Yang Hao is her backer, she may not be able to bear it.

"Mi Mi, you should stay away from Guo Xiaosi's movie resources in the future. Although his movies make money, their reputation is really bad, which will ruin your popularity."

To be honest, Da Mimi used to have a pretty good reputation, but after she starred in Guo Xiaosi's "Tiny Times", her reputation began to deteriorate.

"Honey, but apart from your resources, the best resources I can access are Guo Jingming's." Hearing Yang Hao say this, Da Mimi felt a little aggrieved.

That’s true. There are only three or five big productions in the film industry every year. Da Mimi seems to be very popular now, but apart from Yang Hao’s resources, she really can’t reach the resources of other veteran directors.

In comparison, Guo Jingming's resources are quite good.

Although Yang Hao belittled Guo Jingming, Guo Jingming is definitely a top figure in the entertainment industry, and second- and third-tier artists may not be able to afford such resources.

"Tiny Times" 1234 is starred by Da Mimi, and "Jade Dynasty" is starred by Fan Bayi. All of them are starred by top stars, and there is not a single one of them with low status.

"Mi Mi, if you have the chance, please get in touch with Han Han."

Yang Hao almost forgot about Han Han, but today when he mentioned Guo Xiaosi, he remembered him.

Han Han and Guo Xiaosi were writers of the same period, and they also entered the entertainment industry as film directors at the same time.

However, the performance of these two people’s movies in the entertainment industry is completely different.

Han Han is like a cheat code.

Writing novels, racing, making movies, he excels in every field.

He directed five films: "See You Tomorrow", "The Mermaid", "Speeding Life", "Four Seas", and "Speeding Life 2".

He has participated in, produced and invested in more than a dozen films.

But only "Four Seas" lost money, while all other movies made money.

Moreover, many movies have received great reviews.

Han Han has just directed one movie, "See You Tomorrow", and is about to direct his second movie. Helping him at this time is like providing timely assistance.

"Forget it, let's wait a few days. I'll find an opportunity, arrange a party, and take you to meet the great writer Han Han." After thinking about it, Yang Hao decided to go and meet the other party in person.

The other person's life was too legendary, and Yang Hao was very curious about Han Han and wanted to get to know him.

"Is he as powerful as you say?" Da Mimi asked doubtfully.

After being in contact with Yang Hao for such a long time, this is the first time that Da Mimi sees Yang Hao treat someone so seriously.

"Anyway, he's definitely better than Guo Xiaosi."

"Really?" Having followed Yang Hao for such a long time, I know that Yang Hao is not only good at film and television investment, but also has an incredibly accurate eye for people.

Da Mimi remembered Han Han in her heart and decided to go back and buy all the novels he had written, and study them carefully to see what was so great about them. (End of this chapter)
