Chapter 200: Someone comes to rob?

"Then you have plenty of time."

Upon hearing this, Liu Weiqiang took the initiative to say:

"What are your plans next?"

"I think we will be investing in a TV series in the second half of the year, but the copyright has not been finalized yet, so we have to wait and see."

Du Sheng was talking about "The Legend of Sword and Fairy".

Although we have sent people to contact the game company in Bay City, there has been no feedback yet.

Seeing that he didn't talk about the new movie, Liu Wei Qiang raised his eyebrows at Fatty Wang.

Wang Jing hesitated for a moment, looked at Du Sheng and said:
"Did Bai Zhi tell you about the movie we are about to prepare?"

Du Sheng saw that the woman couldn't help looking over and said with a smile:
"She has been mentioned. So it has been decided that she will play the female lead. Are you, Mr. Wang and Mr. Liu, involved?"

"Haha, we're just putting our names on the list, but Bai Zhi is confirmed."

Liu Weiqiang knew that Zhang Baizhi had probably already told the other party about the situation, so he simply explained:
"Hua Zai is currently on a national tour and has to shoot Infernal Affairs 3 next, so he has clearly stated that he cannot spare the time.

So now it’s up to you.”

What they are talking about, of course, is "The Mouse Loves the Cat", which was invested by Huan Asia Company and Oriental Star Entertainment and co-produced with the mainland.

Du Sheng had received the script a long time ago and also knew that many old acquaintances were participating in the event.

For example, Zhuang Wenqiang continues to be a screenwriter.

Not to mention Liu Weiqiang, he had to do the post-production of "Infernal Affairs 2" and shoot the third part, so he was only a nominal producer.

The director is Chen Jiashang, who was once the director of Tianmu Company. His representative works include "Fight Back to School", "Once Upon a Time in China", "Fist of Fury", "Bodyguard from the East", etc.

However, he is most famous for training two great directors, Chen Musheng and Lin Chaoxian.

In fact, Du Sheng knew without reading the script that this movie was based on the well-known "Seven Heroes and Five Gallants", and mainly revolved around the grievances and love-hate relationship between "Imperial Cat" Zhan Zhao and "Golden-Haired Rat" Bai Yutang.

Well...Bai Yutang was changed into a female, played by Zhang Baizhi.

Du Sheng was not surprised by this, after all, the producer was Wang Jing.

This person has a history of changing from a male role to a female role.

The most famous of them is Dongfang Bubai played by Lin Qingxia.

After all, "The Mouse Loves the Cat" is a comedy, so the participation of this comedy master is indispensable.

But the changes are quite big.

Is Wang Jing so sure that mainland audiences will accept such a drastic change?
I have to say, he really made the right bet.

When it was released in its previous life, the film had good box office and reputation.

Du Sheng hesitated for a moment, then looked at Liu Weiqiang with a hint of meaning:

"Does the supporting actress Yue Hua, who plays opposite Zhan Zhao, have a lot of scenes?"

"Not much."

Liu Weiqiang reacted instantly and said:
"But this role has been promised to Huayi, and I'm not sure if there will be any changes at the moment."

Zhang Baizhi blinked, knowing that Du Sheng probably wanted to ask the studio artists about audition roles.

This is very common in the industry and she didn't make any sarcastic remarks.

"Hua Yi, huh? That's pretty good."

Surprisingly, Du Sheng just smiled and didn't say anything.

This movie is good in every aspect, and its distribution channels can also reach Southeast Asia, China, Japan and other regions...

This means that the appreciation rate of popularity and reputation will also be greatly enhanced.

In fact, as early as last night, Du Sheng agreed to Zhang Baizhi's proposal to co-star.

It’s just about maximizing benefits, and getting as much as possible is better.

Although he didn't say anything, Liu Weiqiang took it to heart.

And considering his growing fame and long-term cooperation in the future, he took the initiative to ask a few more questions.

Wang Jing laughed:
"Since they are both from Huayi and are both Bingbing, and their popularity is not much different, it doesn't matter who plays the role!"

Everyone complained in their hearts, this is a huge difference.

It's like the difference between a sister-in-law and an eldest sister-in-law.

However, Wang Jing's words almost set the tone.

Du Sheng did not mention these anymore. Instead, he raised his glass, stood up, and said with a smile:
“I am honored to play Liu Jianming this time, and I have not yet thanked you all for your support and help.

Without further ado, I wish the Infernal Affairs trilogy a long and successful journey and a huge box office success..."

Liu Weiqiang, Wang Jing, Zhuang Wenqiang and others laughed and raised their glasses.

People at several nearby tables also raised their glasses, but they looked at Du Sheng with envy.

The destinies of different people are so different!
As expected, Du Sheng was forced to drink more than a dozen cups of wine by everyone.

This group of people can drink amazingly.

Especially Liu Weiqiang, his alcohol tolerance is astonishing.

At the end of the dinner, most of the men at the table were staggering.

Even Zhuang Wenqiang, who had the habits of a scholar, looked drunk.

Du Sheng shook his head. He actually wanted to get himself drunk?
This group of people is still too young.

Even so, he was a little dizzy.

After leaving the hotel, he and Zhang Baizhi got into the car one after another.

This girl seemed to still remember what happened at the table, and said with a half-smile:
"You're such a good bastard, you still think about others in Hong Kong!"

Du Sheng knew she was talking about the replacement of the second female supporting role with Fan Bingbing, so he let the woman's hand play tricks on his waist and said with a smile:

“Yuehua is Zhan Zhao’s sweetheart in the play, and no matter who plays her, she is destined to compete with Bai Yutang, played by you.

Rather than letting in an irrelevant 'spy', why not replace him with someone you know well, right? "

Princess Yuehua is the sister of the emperor and Prince of Xiangyang in the play, and she had a marriage with Zhan Zhao.

For the sake of her beloved, it was inevitable that she would have a battle of love with Bai Yutang.

"Spy?" Zhang Baizhi didn't seem to notice Du Sheng was trying to change the subject, or even if she did she wouldn't back off.

After all, the man's strong ability and fame are visible, and his career is flourishing. Which woman would be so generous to give in to him?
The most important thing is that after tasting the sweetness, she became more and more addicted and could not bear to give up.

Now that I heard some secrets, I couldn't help but ask curiously:

"The reason you proposed replacing Li Bingbing, is there some secret involved?"

As she spoke, she took out the hangover medicine she had prepared.

"This has to do with the man behind Li Bingbing, and her relationship with the big and small Wang..."

Seeing that the woman was gossiping, Du Sheng simply explained:

"Maybe she is right, but the title of 'Hua Yi Underground Boss Lady' is a bit too mysterious."

Zhang Baizhi was stunned after hearing this.

Only then did he understand that the last time Du Sheng was slandered as the "descendant of a puppet" and almost fell into the quagmire, it was actually possible that "Xiao Wang" was secretly helping him.

As for Li Bingbing, the relationships behind him are too complicated.

She is not only the lover of a real estate tycoon, but also has an affair with a famous male star, and now she is also some kind of underground boss lady.

However, Zhang Baizhi understood one thing, that is, Li Bingbing has a close relationship with the two Wangs.

In this case, it is indeed not suitable for her to play the role of "sweetheart" with her man.

The most important thing is that Li Bingbing has a rich love history and she likes younger men.

She was worried that Du Sheng would lose control and be chased away.

Even if he wasn't driven away, wouldn't that mean he had one more opponent?
From this perspective, letting Fan Bingbing in actually reduces the number of competitors?
Zhang Baizhi had a headache. She had to hum to let off some steam tonight, otherwise she wouldn't be able to get through the day.

Du Sheng didn't know that this girl was actually a genius in logic, and he was getting stuck in a rut.

However, as long as the two women are not in a bad mood when they meet, it's okay even if they join forces to abuse me.

There are several special skills, and the subtle influence of being open-minded and understanding each other is also incredible. It is still unknown who will win.

The thought of having the chance to complete a double kill honor...

He actually had a little bit of anticipation.

As expected, Du Sheng felt the overwhelming power of venting that night.

Unfortunately, Zhang Baizhi still overestimated herself.

I don't understand what the Dinghai Shenzhen means.

I am even less clear about what it means to be as still as a mountain.

He wiped the sweat off the girl who had calmed down and carried her out of the bathtub.

He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Du Sheng felt that the woman became even more beautiful in this state.

Even Yukiko, who was not a very big figure originally, has now risen to a higher level of fame.

Du Sheng couldn't help but feel a little relieved, since he was the one who brought up this child!
He couldn't help but think of his cousin...

I am wondering whether education should start from an early age.

The next day, Zhang Baizhi reluctantly sent the man out:
"Didn't you say you would go back tomorrow? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

As for that little bit of resentment last night...

I don't know if he figured out that he really couldn't control himself, but he disappeared without a trace after venting his anger.

At this moment, I am reluctant to leave.

"I can't help it. Someone is trying to grab the copyright. I have to go over and take a look at the situation."

Du Sheng patted her shoulders and said with a smile:
"Didn't you say that 'The Mouse Loves the Cat' will be officially prepared in early June? It will take at least a month to shoot by then, so there will be time for you to get bored!"

This film was shot in mainland China, which saved him the trouble of traveling back and forth.

Zhang Baizhi thought about it and it was right. Her beautiful eyes were filled with smiles.

"I don't have many scenes in 'Ghost Horse Rhapsody'. I'll try to coordinate with the director to finish the filming and fly over to meet you as soon as possible."

At this point, she added with concern:
"Copyright issue, do you want me to ask my godmother for help?"

Du Sheng thought about it, shook his head and smiled:
"Not for now, we'll talk when we need it."

What is involved this time is the copyright adaptation of the game "The Legend of Sword and Fairy".

The game was produced by Bay City and is currently being run by Modulun Xing Technology.

Although "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is a stand-alone game, its sales are very hot and it firmly sits at the top of the top three domestic games.

As for the competitor, it is Tang Ren Company, which has gained some fame in the circle.

Since getting the script, Du Sheng has been trying to contact the person in charge of Ruan Xing Technology, but the other party has not relented.

Now it seems that it was because of the intervention of competitor Tang Ren.

In the previous life, this drama was indeed launched by Tang Ren.

But Du Sheng even has the script, so it is impossible to ask him to quit willingly.

So it all depends on one’s own methods.

"If you can't figure it out, remember to call me."

Zhang Baizhi had to film a new movie, so she could only bid farewell to Du Sheng.
"If it doesn't work, I'll have someone contact Daewoo in Bay City for you."

She was obviously becoming more and more concerned about the man's career.

When competition starts in the future, this will be the weight.

"Don't worry, I'm somewhat confident."

Du Sheng smiled and hugged her, waved and got into the car:

"Bai Yutang has a lot of fighting scenes, you should familiarize yourself with the script first, so as not to delay the progress."

"Humph, stop being so conceited. I don't believe you can keep suppressing me forever!"

Zhang Baizhi rolled her eyes at the man. She felt suffocated by him these past two nights.

However, after this interruption, her reluctance finally dissipated a lot, and she got into the RV at the urging of her agent.
