On the set, Fan Bingbing called Zhang Yuan.

"I heard that the Wang brothers contacted their friends in overseas finance."

Fan Ye lowered her voice and spoke softly.

Oh.

Zhang Yuan thought about it.

Da Wang, Wang Zhongjun has a master's degree in mass communication from New York University.

This person has many friends in America.

When it comes to gambling, the Americans are definitely the experts.

The king has been overseas to broaden his horizons and has a certain understanding of the tricks of the capital game.

Zhang Yuan hadn't received a reply from the Wang brothers. In fact, he was a little anxious, but he had been suppressing his anxiety and waiting patiently.

Now that Fan Bingbing has sent him this message, he feels relieved!
"Thank you!"

"Well, it's okay, let's help each other." Fan Bingbing replied with a smile.

At the same time, I was amazed at Zhang Yuan's quick reaction.

It took her a long time to come back to her senses after receiving the news, but the other party understood it in almost a second.

The king is looking for friends in finance, which means that the other party is studying the feasibility of the gambling plan proposed by Zhang Yuan!
It also shows that Huayi is interested in his plan, and very interested!

Otherwise, why do research?

If you cannot accept it at all, just reject it directly.

"Also, Sister Hua wants to talk to me." Fat Fan said again.

Although after Zhang Yuan's reminder and communication with Sister Hua, Fan Bingbing almost made up her mind to stay in Huayi.

But she was also good at networking, so she naturally would not cut off contact with Sister Hua. Instead, she took the opportunity of the other party's change of job to ask about her well-being and try to please both sides.

"What to talk about?"

Fan Bingbing frowned. What else could they talk about...Oh, that's what he meant.

Fan Ye understood that Zhang Yuan knew that Sister Hua wanted to pull him to Orange Sky.

What he meant was, did he want to talk about the agency contract or the more advanced gambling contract?

"Sister Hua said that she can give you the best conditions among the younger generation and arrange a major role in a movie produced by a first-line director every year for you."

"So it's still an agency contract?"

"Yes."

After being stunned for a while, Zhang Yuan finally understood the pros and cons.

He once told Fan Bingbing about the bet between him and Hua Yi.

If she told Sister Hua about this, she would never offer these "ordinary" conditions.

Since he had already made such a request to Huayi, how could he agree to a general agency contract?

Sister Hua is not stupid and will not do useless things.

So there is only one possibility.

Fan Xiaopang really kept the secret for himself and did not tell anyone about the bet.

This was something he didn't expect at all.

Because if it were 99% of the female stars in the circle, they would have already marked the price of the news the next second after he told them about it, and even figured out who they were going to sell it to.

There are too many “smart people” in the entertainment industry!
Everyone wants to take shortcuts and gain benefits by betraying others.

There are many people who have sold their wives and children.

In comparison, Fan Bingbing is too reliable!
"I think you should meet with Sister Hua and talk about whether it will work or not."

"Of course. I have to go for your sake." Zhang Yuan replied with a smile.

Even if it's not for her sake, I have to go for Dong Zhihua's sake.

"Hehehe...just say something nice to coax me." Fatty Fan also smiled and replied, "Tell me, how many girls have you coaxed into bed with this mouth?"

"It's a pity that you are not among them."

"Hehehe..."

The two masters faced off and countered each other's moves.

"There is one more thing. I think the Wang brothers are very strong people." Fan Bingbing calmed himself down again and spoke.

"And strong people actually don't like people who are as strong as themselves."

Zhang Yuan calmed himself down.

Fan Bingbing was reminding himself that betting against the Wang brothers was a bit too aggressive and would easily make the other party wary.

Yup!

Zhang Yuan finally reacted.

The Wang brothers like to be humble and small.

Feng Xiaogang is a big shot outside, but he bows his head and scrapes in front of Xiao Wang.

Fan Bingbing also pretended to be docile.

However, my actions were too proactive and forceful, which made the other party very uncomfortable.

Moreover, he kept in contact with other companies, which also irritated the nerves of the big and small Wangs and made the other parties feel that it was difficult to control them.

Too much too!

He suddenly understood why Huayi hadn't contacted him for so long.

While they are interested in gambling, they are also afraid that they will not obey and will rebel.

I can only say that you are really good at judging people...

Zhang Yuan realized that he couldn't just put pressure on the other party and force the two kings to agree to his bet.

It also needs to be slightly adjusted according to the personalities of these two brothers.

It takes a combination of hard and soft tactics.

Fan Bingbing’s reminder is very important.

She is a woman, and although she appears strong to the outside world, she actually has a feminine side in private.

Therefore, she understands the power of "showing weakness" better than herself.

Zhang Yuan patted his cheek.

Things have been going so smoothly for me in the past year that I've become a little carried away.

"I understand. Thank you for your advice. It's very important to me." He thanked her very sincerely. "If you need any help from me in the future, please feel free to ask."

"You said it. I've made note of it. Don't go back on your word." Fan Bingbing responded without any hesitation, which made the two of them seem closer.

Put down your phone, the messages and reminders that Fan Bingbing gives you are very important.

You really have to thank them and find a chance to repay them.

And Zhang Yuan was thinking.

"It seems I have to show the flaws to the big and small kings so that they can feel at ease."

"Retreat to advance. Don't forget the relative relationship between me and them at this stage. I am still weak and they are strong."

"To give them the illusion that they can control me."

Without having time to think too much, director Huang Weimin shouted at everyone to get ready to start filming.

Today, Zhang Yuan changed into the same outfit as Leslie Cheung, carrying a bamboo frame with a small shed on his back.

In the version starring Joey Wong, Leslie Cheung played a scholar.

The story of the scholar and the female ghost almost fills the entire book "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio".

In the final analysis, just like most of the cousins ​​in Jin Yong's books are scumbags, the works are all reflections of the author's real life.

Mr. Pu Songling passed the imperial examinations consecutively starting from the age of 19, becoming the first in the county, provincial and prefectural examinations, and became famous in Jinan Prefecture.

But in the rest of his life, he failed the examinations again and again until he was 71 years old, when he was allowed to become a tribute according to precedent.

It is equivalent to taking the Peking University exam for your entire life, and finally Peking University sees that it is not easy for you, so it gives you the title of honorary alumnus.

Spending half of your life taking exams for official positions, what kind of spirit is this?
This is the Shandong civil service examination spirit that has been passed down for hundreds of years!
After all, Mr. Pu is from Jinan Prefecture...

Being an unsuccessful scholar, he naturally liked those enchanting female ghosts, and the spirits who wanted to repay him fell upon him.

It's just sexual fantasy.

Of course, Pu Songling's books still contain a lot of life philosophy and are not just folk tales.

In Tangren's New Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, this version of the story was also significantly changed by the screenwriter.

First of all, Ning Caichen, played by Zhang Yuan, is no longer a scholar, but a patrol horse.

The name Xunchengma sounds mysterious, but it is actually SF Express.

So what was in Leslie Cheung's backpack was the Four Books and Five Classics, while what was in Zhang Yuan's backpack should have been letters and winter clothes.

The biggest changes in this version are actually Yan Chixia and the tree demon grandma.

In the original novel, grandma was a yaksha, but since the version starring Leslie Cheung, grandma has become a tree demon.

This version of the tree demon is played by Yang Mingna, the leading female supporting actress in Sugar Man.

Yan Chixia was played by Ng Man-fai, the second star that Wang Jing wanted to promote after his falling out with Stephen Chow.

The theme of this unit is love, and it is the love between good and evil, humans and demons.

So Yan Chixia and the tree demon grandma were designed to be a pair.

When Yan Chixia was young, he used to drive away termites for tree demons.

The tree demon returned the favor. When Yan Chixia was at a disadvantage in the battle with the Black Mountain Demon, the tree demon not only saved Yan Chixia, but also used nectar to cover up his own demonic aura, disguised himself as a human, married the other party, and even gave birth to a son.

Yan Chixia has become Rishu Zhenren...

After Yan Chixia discovered the truth, he felt that good and evil could not coexist and he had been deceived, so he killed their child.

From then on, they began a bad relationship.

In front of the camera, Yang Mingna knelt on the ground with tears in her eyes, and kept begging Yan Chixia, played by Mr. Ge Minhui.

"Teacher Yang's acting is really good." Zhang Yuan couldn't help but sigh. The sadness and the extreme humility for the sake of the child were really moving.

Zhang Yuan glanced at Yang Mi beside him and thought to himself, they are all from the Yang family, so why is there such a big difference between them?

When it comes to acting skills, Yang Mingna is miles ahead of Yang Mi.

But when it comes to cunningness, this guy is not good enough.

Zhang Yuan remembers that Teacher Yang later met a male actor when she was acting. After the two of them hit it off, Teacher Yang kept introducing resources to the other party.

They even gave birth to a child for each other after marriage when they were in their forties.

But after a few years, their relationship broke down.

Simply put, it has been used up and has no value anymore.

After that, he not only asked Yang Mingna for alimony every month, but also spread obscene rumors about his ex-wife on the Internet and made excuses to borrow money and not pay it back.

He has basically done all the disgusting things that a man can do in a relationship between the sexes.

In fact, looking at this sugar man, the artists hired by Boss Cai, especially the female artists, are basically the type that are very easy to be PUA.

Sun Li, Yang Mingna, Liu Shishi, Guli Nazha... those who are smart are basically not favored by them.

For example, Chen Yao, a science genius, is basically in a free-range state.

Boss Cai, on the other hand, strongly supports Hu Bingqing, who is not as good-looking, has a better figure and is not as capable as her.

In fact, the reason is very simple, she is too smart to be caught!

Just like Hua Yi is afraid of Zhang Yuan now.

And Ge Minhui, who acted with teacher Yang Mingna, made Zhang Yuan feel even more sad.

"Wang Jing actually wanted him to replace Master Xing..."

It’s not that Ge Minghui is bad, he has his own style.

But if you compare yourself to others, you will die; if you compare goods to others, you will throw them away!
By watching their performances, Zhang Yuan became more convinced that there is still talent in the acting industry.

In the evening, the show was over.

Zhang Yuan strolled around.

Yang Mi has been very sticky to him these days, always calling him "Master" and following him all the time.

Like a little follower.

As he walked here, Zhang Yuan saw Cai Yinong, Wu Jingyuan, Huang Weimin and others standing in front of a house, nodding and chuckling from time to time.

Seeing this, he came closer out of curiosity.

When I saw it, I was shocked!
In the dark scene, there were skeletons and dead bodies everywhere, and it was bloody and scary.

There are also a large number of sculptures of ox-headed and horse-faced monsters, big ghosts and small ghosts on both sides.

Then use red, green, and all kinds of weird lights.

If the smoke machine releases some fog, it will be like hell on earth!
Do you find this fun?
Is he a pervert?
Yang Mi, who came with him, felt a chill down his spine after seeing it. It was already dark now, and it looked even more eerie and terrifying.

She couldn't help but take half a step back, rolled her eyes, and turned sideways to hug Zhang Yuan's arm.

"It's so scary, I'm scared." Yang Mi said, half of his body pressed forward.

That's what you're trying to do, eh? I have an incompatible relationship with gambling and drugs, so stop using the airbag to hit me!

"Hey, Zhang Yuan, you're here. Come and see how the set is made."

Huang Weimin had been getting along well with him these days, and when he saw him coming, he immediately shouted proudly.

"Very real...Are we planning on making a haunted house theme park?"

"Hahaha, you're joking. This is the underworld scene that will be used in the next unit." Huang Weimin was quite proud.

"I spent a lot of effort designing the drawings, and then found a professional model company to do the details."

“It’s only halfway done now, which is pretty good already. More thrilling details will be added later.”

While Huang Weimin loves animation, he is also an expert at model sculpting and scene design.

After all, when you are a "director", you have to do all the work yourself.

"Director Huang is still very good." Boss Cai also praised.

The reason why she agreed to Wu Jingyuan's request to bring this relative into the team was because she was impressed by his special skills.

In addition to these, Director Huang is also good at designing animation special effects.

Anyway, Sugar Man’s goal is to do three things at once and take on multiple roles.

"It's very good. When the Lu Pan unit uses this scene later, the visual effect will definitely be very good."

"Yes, yes, yes. I guess some audience members will be scared to tears."

"We want to create the most realistic appearance of the underworld and spend money on such thoughtful things." Boss Cai looked at the two directors with a smile.

"Oh...work hard on the scene." Zhang Yuan nodded.

"The idea is right. After all, the bearded man also pays special attention to the scene."

"Just say it." Boss Cai said proudly.

"Have you ever thought about one thing?"

"You made this scene so realistic and terrifying, will it fail to pass the review?"

Cai Yinong: !!!
Wu Jingyuan: !!!

Huang Weimin: !!!

The three of them were stunned when they heard what he said.

The three of them were so immersed in their "perfect" work that they completely forgot about the audit.

"No way, after all, all these contents are in the novel..."

"You know that ghosts are not allowed in horror movies here."

Cai Yinong was choked.

The famous horror film "Black Tower" in 89 officially opened up new ideas for Chinese horror films, which had been plagued by censorship obstacles.

The whole movie is extremely weird. It is set against the backdrop of a rape and murder case of a young girl and an old building. It tells the story of a heroine in a film crew and a sound engineer who gradually discover the truth about the murder in the old building.

At the end of the story, the truth is revealed.

All the horrific incidents were just female patients in the mental hospital describing stories of their own imagination.

The characters in the movie are all her fellow patients.

From then on, fantasy, mental illness, dreaming and other horror movie climax routines became unstoppable.

"You haven't thought about this, have you?" Zhang Yuan asked with his eyes wide open.

These people were having so much fun that they didn't pay any attention to it at all.

"We have filmed many TV series about monsters before, and we have never heard of any problems with the censorship?" Boss Cai said after a long time.

"Xianxia dramas are different from fantasy films like Liao Zhai. There is no underworld in Xianxia dramas, and you made it so scary."

"No way……"

Zhang Yuan decided to give these people some time to accept reality.

A few days later, when he was having dinner with other actors, Boss Cai and two directors sat down in front of him with a miserable look on their faces.

"You really got it right!"

[Received thanks from Cai Yinong, temperament +1! ]

Boss Cai bent down weakly like a deflated ball.

"Recently, the policies from above have been tightened again."

"Some of the content of our film needs to be greatly changed. Your "A Chinese Odyssey" is fine, but "Lu Pan" and "Painted Skin" are more problematic."

"But the contents of these two units are very exciting, and I really can't bear to modify or even delete them." Boss Cai was very conflicted.

"Broadcast... is there any problem?" Zhang Yuan asked with some concern.

"Guangdong TV said they would wait and see."

Zhang Yuan: …

Don’t just shoot for a long time and then fail to broadcast it. It will be a waste!
What actors fear most is having no movies to shoot, and the second thing they fear most is not being able to broadcast the movies after filming.

If an actor encounters several dramas in a row that cannot be broadcast due to various reasons during his golden period, it only takes two to three years for a popular artist to disappear without a trace, or even be considered by the audience to have retired.

"Why are we always so unlucky? The last time we launched The Legend of Sword and Fairy, it just happened that the gaming policy was tightened." Boss Cai said with self-pity.

Zhang Yuan sneered in his heart.

Is there a possibility that this is not a matter of luck, but simply a lack of connections?

Without sufficient connections, it is impossible to avoid changes in review policies in advance.

If the relationship with the TV station is not good enough, the film may not be broadcast during prime time or it may be blocked from review.

Compared with the big companies in the capital, Tangren really has a bit of a makeshift team feel.

"Okay, Mr. Cai, don't worry too much. We can just change it if it doesn't work out."

"Besides, if Guangdong TV doesn't allow you to broadcast it, I might be able to help you find a way to broadcast it later."

Zhang Yuan replied confidently.

After all, Mr. Li from SMG also asked me to discuss the talent show.

"Ways to broadcast..." Boss Cai widened his eyes.

Yang Mi, who was sitting next to him during the meal, also quickly turned his head when he heard this.

After seeing Zhang Yuan's firm and natural expression, Yang Mi felt that he was not bragging or joking.

"Wow, he can arrange the filming and the roles."

"If the broadcast can really be arranged, then the whole line will be opened up."

There were stars in Yang Mi's fox eyes.

If I could hold on to this thigh, I would never lack roles to play again!

Thinking of this, she quietly moved her butt and moved closer to Zhang Yuan.

This little girl wants to improve so much! (End of this chapter)
