Chapter 173

Zhang Qingxian was not worried when he saw Minister Zhang had a serious face.

This time, he sat there, drinking tea and waiting for Minister Zhang's answer.

His requirements are very strict.

Although he has joined the company, he still has absolute control over his own films.

Once they agreed, they would never have the chance to access Zhang Qingxian's films again.

The only way is to buy shares and get the bonus.

Minister Zhang let out a weak sigh.

"Zhang Qingxian, I think you know very well what this means."

"There are only a handful of directors in the country who can receive this treatment."

“Your debut film, while it sold well, didn’t reach that level.”

Minister Zhang said in a deep voice, trying to persuade Zhang Qingxian to calm down.

Zhang Qingxian understood this very well.

Although he performed very well, he is still a novice director after all.

Things like harming Zhongyong are very common in this circle.

No one would bet on him.

It would be great if Zhang Qingxian could really give them the confidence.

"If I could make three movies with the same results as 'Fleeting Time', what do you think?"

Minister Zhang's expression changed again.

Could it be that I made a mistake?
Zhang Qingxian's remarks are really unrealistic.

And it can also be guaranteed that each of the next three films will not be less than 13.8 billion?
joke!

Even the top directors don’t have such courage!

Her only hope for Zhang Qingxian was that he could star in more youth films to establish his position, gradually expand outward, and finally become one of the top directors in Xia Country.

"Zhang Qingxian, stop joking."

"You know, there are other reasons besides its quality for the film's high sales."

"If you offer a higher price, we can talk about it."

Zhang Qingxian waited patiently for her to continue.

The other party really had high hopes for me.

If it were normal times, anyone who dared to make such a claim would definitely be kicked out.

However, she was still happy to give Zhang Qingxian better conditions.

However, Zhang Qingxian will never be grateful to him.

In his previous life, he had climbed up from the bottom, and in this life, he no longer wanted to bow to anyone.

"It doesn't hurt to try."

"If I can't do that, I'll sign with the company under a regular contract."

"Whether it succeeds or not, haven't I joined the company?"

Zhang Qingxian shrugged, and under Minister Zhang's gaze, his eyes froze slightly.

What a powerful faith this is!
She sighed helplessly in her heart.

Young people need to suffer a little and grow up.

"In this case……"

"It's my decision."

"If you can really guarantee that you can surpass 'Fleet of Time' within three months, you will deserve this honor."

This is a very bold woman.

Zhang Qingxian looked at Minister Zhang again, who was a well-known figure in the circle.

He looked very young, perhaps in his forties.

He has an ordinary appearance, but he has the aura of a superior.

"Well, I hope we can have a good cooperation."

The two hit it off.

"Manager Zhang, can you tell me the name of our company and our employees?"

"No way, I can't form a team myself."

Zhang Qingxian said this with a smile and even made a joke.

"After all, we are at Yunding Film and Television Company. It always feels weird to talk about this kind of thing."

Director Zhang also showed a smile on his face.

"Company Name--"

"I gave it a name: Divine Revelation."

"For the time being, I plan to set up a new company, one for film and television and one for TV series."

"The pillar of the film and television department is Li Ke. The costume dramas she has filmed before are all very popular. You can say that she is from the same generation as you. She is quite amazing."

"You are the core of our company. We will try to take on a few low-budget films."

"There are a few people at Yunding who want to follow me. It shouldn't be a problem to form a program team."

"If they are acquaintances, Chen Wei and Li Xun are both your friends, and they both agreed."

"If you want to act in a youth movie, these two are enough."

"You are now quite famous. You can find someone to act in your next play."

It was obvious that she intended to give all power to Zhang Qingxian, and saying "if" meant giving the decision-making power to Zhang Qingxian.

Of course, he also wanted to test Zhang Qingxian's next plan.

Is this Chen Wei and Li Xun?
It may not be a bad thing to join forces with old friends.

Chen Wei has always been considering whether he could serve as his assistant director again. Now it seems that this dream is about to come true.

Zhang Qingxian already has his own ideas about the theme of the next film.

“That’s a youth-themed movie.”

When Minister Zhang heard Zhang Qingxian say this, he finally let go of his worries.

She was just worried that Zhang Qingxian would try a desperate measure and shoot something they didn't know much about.

in fact.

Zhang Qingxian was originally a little hesitant about whether to shoot a youth-themed movie.

The person who actually made him make this decision was Li Xun.

The kid’s acting skills have improved now, but it would be difficult for him to play other roles.

Yes, Zhang Qingxian had already made plans to make Li Xun the protagonist.

First, Li Xun had worked with him for a period of time and was a pretty good person.

Second, it was to repay a favor. Minister Zhang had great confidence in him, so he helped Minister Zhang to build good relationships.

and.

Li Xun's acting skills are good enough for him to star in a youth film.

In other words, no one is more suitable for this movie than Qin Guan.

With the fame of "So Young", Li Xun may have more surprises.

"Once I'm done with Yunding, I'll have my assistant write an agreement and send it to you."

"Given the current situation, it is impossible for me to sign a contract with you."

"That's great. You can also take this opportunity to revise your script."

Zhang Qingxian nodded slightly.

Now that we have decided to shoot a youth film, we must make adequate preparations.

and.

And today's youth films still have a huge market.

Zhang Qingxian single-handedly opened the precedent for youth films. With the book "So Young", he made all screenwriters and directors understand one thing, that is, how to make a youth film more exciting and more fascinating.

Many directors have expressed their desire to enter the youth film market.

There are more than a dozen TV series and movies alone.

or……

Is this going to start a wave of youth films called “Youth Summer Wind”?
This surprised Zhang Qingxian.

This strong wind does not need him to push it at all, it will flow on its own.

Although "Fleet of Time" has been removed from the shelves, the discussion is still going on.

On the contrary, under the instigation of some people, things have become more serious.

He was actually criticized for "So Young".

Even Zhang Qingxian did not expect this absurd situation.

He had never encountered a situation where no one was scolded in a cinema.

This is Ren Guanyu's name.

Lin Huang thought of the person Chen Wei mentioned before.

He is also a famous director in Xia Country.

But it is not famous.

This is a shame!

To be fair, he does a pretty good job in the film.

Among them, several have a box office of between 500 million and 100 million, and the highest even reaches 1.5 billion, surpassing "Fleet of Time" directed by Zhang Qingxian.

Among all the young directors in China, he is considered outstanding.

However, the reason why he was able to get such a high box office revenue was not just because of him alone.

Ren Guanyu's best skill is to use IP to hype up his own movies by pairing them with popular artists to make more profits.

No matter it is good or bad, they will do anything to increase their popularity.

This is his specialty.

Ren Guanyu is quite good at this.

Almost every time a new film comes out, they will find a film that suits them to hype it up.

If we talk about the most popular director at the moment, it would be Zhang Qingxian, who earned 13.8 billion yuan with a youth film!
There are also "You, My Deskmate" and "So Young".

A movie, a song.

Zhang Qingxian is well-known in both fields.

In the music industry, she became a diva with two best-selling songs, becoming the youngest diva in the country!
In the film and television industry, he became the youngest billionaire in history and became famous thanks to "Fleet of Time"!

And this time, Ren Guanyu tricked Zhang Qingxian again.

However, when Zhang Qingxian saw this Weibo post, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"With the popularity of Fleet of Time, many people have realized this, and as a result, a series of youth-themed films and TV shows have been released one after another.

But on second thought, this is also a very normal thing. Who hasn’t been young once?
But does our youth mean skipping classes, fighting, or even having miscarriages?
However, after watching "Fleet of Time", I felt that my childhood was so boring. Compared with those exciting young people, it was nothing.

but……

I will never admit that any film shot under the banner of a teenager is negative, because he has departed from the kindness of my youth.

Zhang Qingxian is a very accomplished commercial film director.

But, respectfully, he was still very young and did not understand the meaning of youth.

Rebellion, impulsiveness, abortion...

Young people think bitterly about love and the love of youth.

But, I think, a lot of people will be like me, like the film I'm about to star in.

“It’s a great film, not as tense as in the movie, but still fun.”

I have to admit that Ren Guanyu's handwriting is quite good.

This sentence hit the soft spot of "Fleet of Time", greatly increased the attention of this program, and guided the focus of everyone's discussion.

Browse other people's Weibo

"Ren Guanyu is right about that."

"Fleeting Time is so bad. I still remember when I was in school, I dated people in secret."

"Hey, I'm suddenly very interested in Ren Guanyu's new play."

"Fuck, this guy's acting is half as good as he is on Weibo, right?"

"I don't really like this movie by Zhang Qingxian, but his songs are very nice."

"The publicity for 'Back in Time' was very strong and the plot was very exaggerated, so I gave up halfway through watching it. It has nothing to do with my childhood."

Zhang Qingxian closed the page directly.

Then he remembered that he didn't seem to have a Weibo account yet. How could he refute it?

but……

Of course, he wouldn't let her use her fame to cause trouble on the Internet.

"It's time to hire a manager, otherwise it won't work if I do everything myself."

Thinking of this, Zhang Qingxian registered a new account on Weibo.

So, he has to have a manager.

She didn't want to waste too much time on him.

After applying, Zhang Qingxian started his work immediately.

"@Ren Guanyu, I also want to act in a youth-themed TV series. You are very knowledgeable. There is no point in arguing on the Internet. How about we have a fight?"

Zhang Qingxian finally confirmed his guess.

Another youth movie is about to be performed!

He is not the kind of person who would not fight back when being ridiculed.

He was famous in the entertainment industry in his previous life, so he would fight back if he didn't accept it.

Now that Ren Guanyu has come to him, does he still expect Zhang Qingxian to spare him?
not to mention.

Zhang Qingxian was originally thinking about whether he should star in another youth-themed movie.

Qin Guan is very popular. If he can appear in the next youth film, he will definitely be able to earn a lot of money with his popularity.

Besides.

This time, I am able to partner with Li Xun and Chen Wei, both of whom are very familiar with youth films.

Next time, it should be no problem to break my previous record, right?

Zhang Qingxian’s Weibo post was also confirmed.

After the verification was completed, Ren Guanyu responded quickly.

“@张清贤, it would be great if we could communicate with each other in the film and television industry.

I was just watching "Fleeting Time" and Director Zhang's directing skills are very high. He is not a novice at all and is even more experienced than Chen Wei."

The conversation between the two immediately aroused the interest of many people.

In less than an hour, Zhang Qingxian’s Weibo had more than 500,000 followers!
"Director Zhang, are you ready for the opening?"

"Stop filming and go back to writing songs, please!"

"Finally you opened a Weibo account. There was no news before. I thought I would see your new drama."

"A new play? Is this a bad teen movie?"

"I'm also surprised. Although Director Zhang is a newcomer, he gives people the feeling of many experienced old directors. He is so lucky to have Chen Wei as his assistant director."

"You are right. You are right."

Zhang Qingxian's eyes narrowed slightly.

He has a bad temper to begin with, so naturally he won't let her succeed.

It is obvious that Ren Guanyu hired someone to hype up the drama in order to make people think that Chen Wei played a big role in his play!

Of course, the reason they did this was to build momentum for this new film!

but……

The other party dared to do these little tricks so openly, naturally because they saw him as a rookie with no background who was not easy to bully.

This time, he will not show mercy.

Zhang Qingxian laughed and continued typing on the computer.

“@Ren Guanyu, Director Chen is indeed an outstanding director. It is a great honor to have Director Chen as his assistant.

Director Ren, I heard that you are a very good director, and your next movie will be similar. How about we make a bet?
I heard that in ancient times there was a great talent and scholar who acted arbitrarily in the court and asked the imperial concubine to hold the inkstone and the strong man to take off his shoes.

Why don’t we learn from the ancients, who has less money, who has more money, who has less money, who has more money, who has more money.”

capital.

Ren Guanyu was a little surprised to see another message on Weibo.

If the box office is too bad, it would be a slap in their face.

Not too harmful, but very insulting!

What happened to Zhang Qingxian? !
If it were in the past, I wonder how many people would pay attention to Zhang Qingxian's news. "Zhang Duidui", this old acquaintance, is online again!

As soon as Zhang Qingxian’s Weibo post came out, the whole circle went wild!

Gambling is a normal thing in this circle.

For example, the bet between Zhang Qingxian and Yun Ding.

In his memory, many stars would make bets.

According to Zhang Qingxian, Shen Teng, Wen Zhang, Pan Zi and others had used nude photos and nude swimming as bets.

but……

Zhang Qingxian's performance in this game is really rare!
Whoever has fewer points will be surpassed by the one with higher points.

This time, the gambling game was so popular that it immediately ignited the whole audience!

"Fuck! Director Zhang is too awesome, isn't he?"

"Damn it, he's already so arrogant even before he leaves school!"

"Director Zhang is talented, but he is still young after all."

"After a little provocation, I lost my mind. This time, I'm afraid I'm going to suffer a great loss."

"I am the only one who is curious, what kind of poet can make the imperial concubine sharpen the inkstone and the scholar take off his shoes?"

Li Bai does not exist.

Of course, there is no story about the queen grinding ink or warriors taking off their shoes.

A group of netizens searched through all the information but could not find which poet was so brave.

He thought that this was a story Zhang Qingxian made up to give him a legitimate excuse.

I am very sure of that.

This incident did not dampen the interest of netizens at all in having fun.

Countless people went to Ren Guanyu's Weibo, urging him to cheer up and take a gamble with Zhang Qingxian.

As a result, Zhang Qingxian’s bet quickly became the number one hot search!

At that time, the popularity of "Hurry" was so high that it didn't even rank first, but Zhang Qingxian's Weibo was instantly pushed to the first place.

You know what, there are quite a lot of people watching the show.

"Zhang Qingxian and Ren Guanyu's Bet"

"My dear Guigui, he is indeed a young man, and he is indeed cruel and ruthless!"

"Ren Guanyu has been blackmailing us every day. This time he has really hit a wall. I want to see if he can still endure it!"

"What a joke! Ren Guanyu is courting death!"

"It's up to you. Anyway, I'm very dissatisfied with Ren Guanyu. I'll book a ticket for each director now."

"Ren Guanyu lied to me about his new movie before, so I went with him!"

capital.

boom!
Ren Guanyu smashed the cup to the ground, breaking it into pieces.

"Zhang Qingxian!" he murmured.

His chest was heaving violently, and he was obviously extremely angry. He kept repeating the three words "Zhang Qingxian" in his mouth.

This time, he really had no way out.

Before he even agreed, the internet had already tacitly agreed.

If that's all, that's fine.

but……

Below, countless people said that for this bet, they were willing to give a ticket to Zhang Qingxian!

The reason is simple.

He cheated a lot of people.

It was a rage, but it also pissed people off.

But he has always been smart.

He knew very well who he could offend and who he could not offend.

As for those who are lower than him, he would just offend them and they would not dare to fight back.

That's why he was chosen, just like Zhang Qingxian.

Zhang Qingxian is a newcomer after all, still a newcomer.

Although his debut film achieved good box office results, he was a newcomer in the industry after all and had no foundation.

But there is clearly a difference.

Zhang Qingxian obviously didn't care about his position and status in the circle. When he was blackmailed at the beginning, he immediately jumped up and asked an unacceptable question!

In this way, the fans of those artists who were deceived by him in the past will become disgusted with him and turn to support Zhang Zhixian.

Ren Guanyu took a deep breath, then took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

"Hey, Brother Li, you're here."

"Yeah, yeah, that's me."

"It's just that the new movie is about to start filming. Is there anyone in our Shengshi Entertainment who is planning to develop into the film and television industry?"

"I have a good script here, do you want it?"

……

Seeing the discussion on Weibo, Zhang Qingxian couldn't help but burst out laughing.

This was an unexpected surprise.

He just said it casually, and attracted many people who disliked Ren Guanyu to stand on his side.

This Weibo post alone can make him millions.

Because he saw that Ren Guanyu actually agreed to his bet.

“@张清贤, in that case, let’s see who is the real winner in this play!”

A very simple sentence.

It was obvious that he was confident in himself.

In fact, Zhang Qingxian also browsed some of the films he directed.

He took an unorthodox path, used a big IP, and was a popular young actor.

However, he does have some skills as a director.

When it comes to command ability, Zhang Qingxian's predecessor Chen Wei was not as good as him.

As Zhang Qingxian's deputy, Chen Wei naturally also made great progress.

As long as he absorbs all these things, his strength will not be inferior to Ren Guanyu.

Of course, Zhang Qingxian would not care about this clownish behavior.

People like this are everywhere in the entertainment industry.

However, this person is also quite famous.

This is a good opportunity to attack these people and promote my new movie at the same time.

Zhang Qingxian closed his Weibo account and ignored the comments online.

He is ready.

It didn't take long for him to come up with a name for the new script.

The song "Those Years, We Chased the Same Girl" was written by her and is also her favorite song.

This film...

It can be said that this is the ancestor of a love movie and also the pinnacle of this film.

Eleven years later, Zhang Qingxian was reborn, and for the past eleven years, he has been the topic of conversation among people.

In 18, it was re-filmed by the Japanese.

In 22, there were rumors that "Asan Kingdom" would be re-shot.

Spanning ten years, it remains popular.

This shows how great the influence of this film is.

Without the overly exaggerated plots that have been complained about, every scene is so common and impressive.

It's just a bit regretful.

This is a film that was shown a long time ago. The film market had not yet developed at that time, so its box office was not bad, but compared with the more than 1 billion in later generations, there is still a big difference.

If I put it here...

His "Fleet of Time" has opened a path for youth romance films.

So, how high will its box office be?
Zhang Qingxian had no idea what was going on.

It depends on how far the market has developed.

Ren Guanyu is still very strong.

With the support of top stars and strong publicity, this movie is sure to do well at the box office.

but……

Faced with such a situation, Zhang Qingxian had no choice but to admit defeat.

For example, this script.

It is rare to master a set of skills in ten years.

And when it is born, it will be the pinnacle of its kind.

I’m afraid no one will be able to match us in the next ten years.

Zhang Qingxian said silently in his heart.

Every word, every word, was typed clearly by him.

"Director Zhang, this is a high price offered by our Lanxing Company!"

"Everyone at Yunding has agreed. We are just waiting for your signature, Director Zhang."

"Online movies and real-life movies are two completely different concepts."

"Based on the general situation in the industry, a movie with a budget of 10 billion yuan can be sold online for around or million yuan. This price is obviously much higher."

After Fleet of Time was removed from the shelves, major video platforms approached Zhang Qingxian one after another, asking for the online adaptation rights of Fleet of Time.

Zhang Qingxian had no reason to refuse.

Anyway, it’s all taken off the shelves, so it’s good to make more money.

Unlike the film and television works in the past that cost hundreds of millions of dollars, the world today is still dominated by television, supplemented by offline cinemas, and online film and television do not occupy a dominant position.

Eighty million is the maximum Zhang Qingxian can currently offer.

If we keep waiting, I'm afraid nothing better will happen.

"Director Zhang, you——"

The woman opposite was still trying to persuade Zhang Qingxian.

"Okay, then it's settled. You sign an agreement with Yun Ding."

Zhang Qingxian knew that this was his bottom line and he didn't want to continue bargaining on this matter.

"Is this true? Then I would like to congratulate Director Zhang in advance on the success of his next film!"

Zhang Qingxian didn't waste any more words and immediately hung up the phone.

……

Lanxing Entertainment has already obtained the copyright of the website and immediately entered the busy preparation stage.

In just over half a month, Lanxing Entertainment had prepared everything for "Fleet of Time" and it was broadcast smoothly.

With live streaming on the Internet, "So Young" has attracted more viewers, and its popularity on the Internet has also increased.

Even Zhang Qingxian's new film became more popular because of this incident.

now.

Sure enough, Ren Guanyu stood up again.

“@张清贤, “Fleeting Time” has been a huge success online, Director Zhang, congratulations!

Director Zhang can live a worry-free life for the rest of his life just with "Fleeting Time". It's really enviable.

【@弘子平】, 【@杨贤淑】In a few days, my new drama "To My Past You" will start filming.

"With these two young leading actors, I think this movie will definitely not be worse than 'Fleet of Time'. You must not miss it!"

That's really the case.

Zhang Qingxian saw this Weibo post and gave a bitter smile.

He naturally understood what Ren Guanyu meant.

The meaning is very clear, Zhang Qingxian is a person who can't get away with anything, and he will be filming a play for the rest of his life.

This kind of small action is nothing to Zhang Qingxian.

He is busy.

His script has been completed and he will receive box office dividends soon, so he has to prepare for his next film.

I also have to consider how to get myself an assistant to do some chores.

It just so happens that she can use him to interview the new assistant.

Zhang Qingxian said silently in his heart.

However, Ren Guanyu's actions were beyond Zhang Qingxian's expectations.

The male and female protagonists have already been confirmed.

Same old same old routine.

Hong Ziping and Yang Xianshu, both of them are now popular first-line stars.

These two people are hyping up their CP and are the two most popular stars right now.

After Ren Guanyu announced this, fans of both of them went crazy and posted a lot of angry comments on Ren Guanyu's Weibo.

However, Zhang Qingxian is different.

He hasn't even decided which actors to use.

Only Chen Wei served as the deputy director, while Li Xun served as the leading actor.

And, the most troublesome thing is.

His team hasn't been established yet.

There is nothing we can do about this.

Zhang Qingxian had already decided to make a film of his own.

Director Zhang is responsible for the preparation of the crew, the recruitment of actors, and the contact with theaters.

The filming of this drama has just started and he has to take care of everything.

This is also the fundamental reason why Zhang Qingxian was unwilling to cooperate with Minister Zhang to establish a company.

Two more days passed.

Zhang Qingxian finally received his share of the film fee.

It was as if Minister Zhang had calculated it for him.

After deducting taxes and income from film and television works, he received a total of 150 million.

At the moment he received the box office dividends, Director Zhang of Yunding Group also left the company.

The newly established "TVXQ" entertainment company was also successfully established.

This is Zhang Qingxian's first performance at Shenqi Company.

"Director Zhang's office environment is much worse than before."

When I came to Director Zhang's office again, he put a manuscript on the table.

Director Zhang picked up the script but was not in a hurry to turn it over.

"Zhang Qingxian, the recent network situation seems to be unfavorable to you."

"Hong Ziping and Yang Xianshu, these two are popular first-line stars. Their fans alone can make 1 billion."

"So, do you want to join my team?"

"Although it is not as glorious as the one after Ren Guanyu, it is not as good as the 'Yun Ding' of his predecessor. At least it still has some foothold."

"Although this temple is small, it can still accommodate two Bodhisattvas."

She is very persuasive.

Zhang Qingxian burst out laughing.

"Director Zhang, you are such a joker."

"When your company left, it poached half of Yunding's film and television department."

"During this period, people from Yunding came to me and asked me to go to Yunding. They need manpower."

A smile appeared on Zhang Qingxian's face.

Minister Zhang shook his head, looking helpless.

Zhang Qingxian said praise, but in fact he was rejecting it.

"Well, I won't say much."

"If you have a new play, just ask."
