Chapter 412 Love Story
Jiang Heng laughed and said, "How is that possible? Don't you believe in my strength?"
"I believe it, but I feel that even though Jackie Chan and Jet Li are so talented, their collaboration could lead to a terrible movie. We should be more cautious!"
Jiang Heng laughed, "It's different. When they filmed the movie The Forbidden Kingdom, the director and screenwriter were all foreigners!"
"what?"
Jing Tian must have heard about the information about "The Forbidden Kingdom", but he never thought there was anything wrong here.
Jiang Heng explained: "It would be great if a bunch of Hollywood screenwriters could understand Journey to the West. If they were to adapt it, it would definitely be a mess because they simply couldn't grasp the essence of the story."
"Oh, no wonder the reputation of Sino-US co-productions in recent years has been bad, is this the reason?"
Da Tiantian tilted her head back and asked seriously.
Jiang Heng smiled. He really didn't expect that she would have such awareness. It seemed that she would not take part in the terrible movie "The Great Wall".
"Well, the root of this is basically the cultural difference. For example, if Chinese people go to shoot American westerns, I guess both Chinese and American audiences will find it awkward!"
At this point, Jiang Heng suddenly remembered that it seemed that Sammo Hung had collaborated with Jet Li on a western film - "Once Upon a Time in China and America".
The box office of this movie was OK, but its reputation was relatively low in the entire "Once Upon a Time in China" series. As for what American audiences thought of it, he had no idea.
After chatting for a while, both of them felt a little hungry.
Jiang Heng asked Da Tiantian what she wanted to eat. Da Tiantian touched her flat stomach and said with a pout, "I'm too hungry. Now I want to see the night view!"
Jiang Heng snapped his fingers and said with a smile, "Got it. Revolving restaurant?"
Da Tiantian really didn't think so much about it, but when Jiang Heng said that, a romantic scene instantly emerged in her mind of eating delicious food in a revolving restaurant while watching the night view of Beijing, her eyes were full of little stars.
"Okay, okay, let's go to the revolving restaurant!"
Jiang Heng called the Kunlun Hotel and reserved a table before driving there.
After arriving, Da Tiantian ran to see the night view first, and then reluctantly sat down.
After ordering, the young lady still had a look of aftertaste and said with emotion: "It's so beautiful!"
Jiang Heng smiled. He admitted that it was indeed beautiful to dine in a revolving restaurant and enjoy the night view, but he didn’t need to be so emotional!
Da Tiantian did have something else to say, "It would be nice if you could come more often!"
"It's not a big deal, we can eat anywhere anyway!"
“It would be nice if I could go out and see other scenery!”
Jiang Heng said: "Where do you want to go?"
"Bali, Maldives and so on, if you don't have time, Sanya is also fine!" Da Tiantian looked aggrieved.
Jiang Heng smiled and said, "It depends on the situation. I definitely won't have time in the next few months!"
"Oh!"
Da Tiantian didn't feel disappointed. After all, Jiang Heng's busyness was obvious to everyone. As long as he still remembered this matter and thought of taking her out when he was free, it would be enough.
Jiang Heng said: "We will be filming "Running Man" in a while. We will be the guests of the first episode and we will go to Hangzhou to film!"
Jing Tian naturally knew about this because Li Xiaoping had already contacted her.
She also knew why Jiang Heng wanted to bring her to participate in this episode of the variety show, because the theme was "The Legend of White Snake".
When she thought of this, she was extremely happy.
Because Jiang Heng chose to take her instead of Liu Yifei, because she played Nie Xiaoqian. Every time she thought of this today, she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
Jiang Heng continued, "The script still needs to be polished, and the filming and preparation will probably be done after the Chinese New Year!" Hearing that Jiang Heng had postponed the time for going out to play to half a year later, Da Tiantian was a little unhappy again, "Okay!"
Seeing that she was not in high spirits, Jiang Heng didn't say anything.
Girls are always imaginative and emotional.
After dinner, the two drove back home. Da Tiantian couldn't sleep, so she pestered Jiang Heng to tell her a story, and it had to be a love story.
Jiang Heng smiled, "Why don't you look at the domineering president..."
"Ah, don't say that...!" Da Tiantian quickly reached out to cover Jiang Heng's mouth.
When she is not busy on weekdays, she likes to play games, watch TV series and movies, eat delicious food and read romance novels.
I used to read those romance booklets published in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but I got tired of them after reading them too many times.
Recently, she accidentally discovered a novel about a domineering CEO. Da Tiantian was fascinated by it. However, after putting it down, she felt a little shy when she thought about her and Jiang Heng again, because the CEO in the book was far inferior to Jiang Heng.
Jiang Heng didn't tease her and casually talked about the love story of Zhu Bajie and Zhu'er in "Black Myth: Wukong".
"I found out what Marshal Tianpeng became in his reincarnation."
"It looks like a pig!"
"Okay, then I want to be a spider too!"
……
She put on the makeup she wore when they first met, fearing that Bajie would not recognize her. But now Bajie did not dare to recognize her. He had seen the end of Bull Demon King, whose family was destroyed and his wife and children were separated. He knew that once he recognized Zizhu'er, their family would be the same as Bull Demon King's family...
After the story was told, Da Tiantian burst into tears, "It's so touching, Zizhu'er and Bajie are so pitiful, brother, why do you have to tell such a sad story, wuwu!"
Jiang Heng looked helpless. It’s you who should listen to it, okay?
The young lady asked again, will it be included in the new film?
Jiang Heng said: "It depends on the situation!"
"Then, how about letting Ying Bao play Zi Zhu'er?"
Jiang Heng was stunned, "Why did you think of her?"
"She is my sister. Besides, she is sometimes timid, so she is definitely suitable to play the role of a maid who loves Marshal Tianpeng!"
Jiang Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, thinking to himself, are you praising her or not?
But then again, Zhao Liying's timid look is really likable.
After several classic images of Ying Bao emerged in his mind, Jiang Heng suddenly remembered a classic domineering CEO drama - "My Sweetheart, Come and Eat". It is necessary to make it!
The next day, Jiang Heng went to the company and asked someone to call Li Xiaoping and asked her whether the company had bought the copyright of a novel titled "Shan Shan Comes to Eat".
Of course Li Xiaoping didn't remember such a thing, so she quickly asked someone to check. The people in the copyright department quickly replied that it had been purchased.
After all, Jiang Heng had already instructed them to buy more film and television adaptation rights for online novels, especially novels oriented towards women, which are easier to adapt into films and television than novels oriented towards men.
Anyway, the company gave me a sufficient budget and the copyright fees were not expensive, so I have accumulated a lot of them over the years.
Jiang Heng said directly: "Adapt this book into a TV series, let Zhao Liying play the female lead, and you can choose the male lead!"
Jiang Heng didn't care much about it, thinking that it was most likely not Zhang Han, and neither of them was from iQiyi, Youku or Tencent Video.
Li Xiaoping went away in response, feeling emotional in her heart. What inspiration did Director Jiang get? Why did he suddenly give Zhao Liying another TV series?
However, since he can give personal instructions, it seems that this novel has some highlights!
While she was asking someone to contact Zhao Liying, she also got the manuscript of the novel.
The book "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" began to be serialized on the website in 07, but was not published until September 11.
So what the company has now are only typed manuscripts, not physical publications.
