Chapter 182: Is this really possible?
"That guy Wang Jing is just a loser.
"Three-color movies can't even make any minor stars famous. How can such a director possibly be talented?"
“It is said that their script was bought at a high price and it is very good. It is a pity that it fell into the hands of such people.
Isn’t this a complete waste? If I were to take care of it, I would definitely be able to do a great job.”
While they were complaining, Zhou Shengpeng had already arrived in front of the club members with a group of people from the film and television company.
Both sides looked very tense, and all the club members knew who the director was.
Although Wang Jing is not very famous in the three-color circle, the actors he chooses every time are pretty good. It's a pity that their acting skills are average.
"Brothers, during this period of time, you will help Director Wang set up a filming location.
All subsidies are the same as in the club. There are no special circumstances. For the next month, you will follow Director Wang.
Come, call Director Wang!"
"Hello, Director Wang!"
"Um, hello everyone, thank you for your hard work!"
The directors of the neighboring companies were all confused: why would someone with vision and investment ability like Zhou Shengpeng choose to meet a third-rate director?
But when they heard hundreds of people shouting "Director Wang is great" at the same time, the envy in their hearts was truly indescribable.
As for Wang Jing himself, he was completely stunned.
Did I hear that right? It's not just about establishing a film and television prop company? It's about building our own film and television studio!
How rich does one have to be to do something like this?
Compared to Zhou Shengpeng's high morale, He Zhe'nan is just proceeding step by step.
Just like all the previous methods, they constantly discredit the other party's stars, constantly attack those little-known actors, and spend a lot of money to make headlines.
For a while, everyone began to have a very pessimistic attitude towards the movie A Better Tomorrow.
"The works produced by this new film company are definitely not good. Apart from Di Long, there are no famous actors here."
"Really? You dare to cram all sorts of small fry into the film industry, and yet you still say that the film industry should allow a hundred schools of thought to bloom? If the audience doesn't like to watch it, what's the point of talking about movies?"
“And the director of this film is a three-color director, so how can he produce a good film?
Won't it end up being the same meaningless stuff that everyone sees?"
"It's actually that idiot Wang Jing!"
"If you really want to see a Lunar New Year movie, you have to go to Shaolin Kid. This cast is definitely something to watch!"
But Zhou Shengpeng didn't care about the rumors outside. He just started to build the film and television base step by step according to his own ideas.
At the same time, we began to contact some small film and television props companies.
As for purchasing props and equipment, the requirements were extremely high. Some scenes were even filmed on real locations.
"It seems that Mr. Zhou really wants to make a name for himself in the film and television industry."
"Ms. Zhu is a popular star at Golden Harvest. It doesn't make sense for her to come to a small company like this to make a movie, right?"
"Isn't Mr. Ogi one of the Four Little Dragons? But I'm afraid he can't refuse this script.
I really want to meet the person who wrote the script and see his talent. It would be a shame not to know such an interesting man. "
The two popular stars chatted while flipping through the script.
Chow Yun-fat, another leading actor, was staying in his small room at this moment, constantly adjusting the details in front of the mirror.
Whether it is frowning or the expression when lighting a cigarette, it requires constant practice.
The best example was the man who shocked the entire audience with just a few words on the third floor of the nightclub that afternoon.
The two popular stars had no idea that the truly talented person was Zhou Shengpeng.
In Zhou Runfa's mind, this script is a true portrayal of Zhou Shengpeng... and the act of building a film and television base cannot be concealed at all.
Not to mention that the media will report on this matter on a large scale, a large number of people within Hung Hing are also paying attention to this matter.
After all, Zhou Shengpeng has a lot of lucrative jobs.
Instead of doing serious work, they have to make a movie. Isn't this a pure waste of resources?
"Sha Qiang, how's the matter that I asked you to inquire about?
This guy is obsessed with his film and television company every day. He doesn't seem to pay much attention to what's going on in the club. This is a good opportunity for us."
"Brother Kun, don't worry. Everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared. Mr. Jiang's tolerance for Zhou Shengpeng has probably reached its limit!"
Facts have proved that it is true.
Mr. Jiang was already very angry when he heard that Zhou Shengpeng was wholeheartedly devoted to the film and television industry.
It is nothing more than a method and tool for money laundering. Investing so many community resources will undoubtedly weaken the influence of Hung Hing.
Now that we are unable to cope with the invasion of foreign communities, Zhou Shengpeng bears the brunt of the responsibility.
"Mr. Jiang, this matter should be handled by Kunpeng. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to do it, right?"
"There's nothing inappropriate about it. Since he wants to focus on making movies, let him make movies.
We must always give young people some opportunities, and leave this matter to people we trust!"
After getting the affirmation, Big B came out of Mr. Jiang's room and found Chen Haobei immediately.
Although there was indeed discussion in the previous debate about letting Chen Haobei be responsible for this matter, no one dared to act rashly without Mr. Jiang's approval.
"Haonan, you will go to Macau to do this.
Bring a few trustworthy people with you, and remember not to cause any trouble."
"Brother Dabi, before we set off, we need to confirm whether there is anyone over there to pick us up. After all, such an important matter cannot be sloppy. Otherwise, we should bring a few more people with us!"
"Oh, there's no need for so much.
It's just Mr. Jiang's private matter. There's no need to let too many people know. I think it's just right for you good brothers to go.
Mr. Jiang must have arranged for someone there, so you can rest assured about this matter."
Zhou Shengpeng couldn't care less about what happened here.
The rewards of the new system are still too important for me. I must accumulate a large amount of original funds through the film and television industry in order to successfully transform.
Otherwise, without sufficient funds in the future, the society will be caught in a very embarrassing dilemma.
And it was at this time that Zhou Shengpeng received news from an insider.
"Wang Jing, I'll leave the matters at the film and television base to you. I need to go and discuss business, a business that will benefit both of us!"
"Mr. Zhou, don't worry, the filming will officially start soon.
And with so many excellent equipment and sophisticated props, we can catch up with the progress.
Before New Year's Day, I will definitely make it appear in the public eye!"
A group of celebrities, big and small, looked at Wang Jing who was nodding and bowing, and showed disdainful eyes.
They have never had any good feelings towards such gang leaders who launder money. Although they can't afford to offend them, they won't take the initiative to get close to them.
"Director Wang, the reason I'm willing to switch jobs here this time isn't just because of the salary you offer.
I want to meet that screenwriter. He's such a talented person, I absolutely have to meet him."
"Ms. Zhu, you have already met the screenwriter."
Zhu Baoyi was stunned when he heard this.
The entire crew has been busy for so many days, setting up various bases and shooting scenes, but they have never seen the screenwriter come out to discuss the plot. When have they ever met?
"Director Wang, there's no one around, so there's no need to be so shy. Just tell me where you bought the script, and I won't tell anyone else!"
Just when Zhu Baoyi was pestering Wang Jing and trying to find out his name, Zhou Runfa appeared from the side.
"Director Wang, I think Mr. Zhou should be the one choosing the clothes.
After all, this script was written by Mr. Zhou himself.
Mr. Zhou should know better than us what style can best reflect the character's characteristics! "
Written by Mr. Zhou?
Zhu Baoyi was stunned when he heard these words: those so-called community bosses couldn't even read a few words.
How could such a talented person exist? This is absolutely impossible! This must be a mistake...
Falling into self-doubt, Zhu Baoyi began to recall the experiences of the past few days.
However, Zhou Shengpeng has already arrived at the airport. Today, he is going to meet with Director David from Europe and the United States. It would be best if he could find a way to have a meal with him. Although the method is not so authentic, his sincerity is definitely full.
"Brother Peng, do you think we can really do this?
He's worth over 100 million yuan and has been investing in the film industry for so many years. Wouldn't it be a bit abrupt for a small, unknown company like us to discuss cooperation with him?"
Zhou Shengpeng laughed when he heard this. It would not be surprising to hear this from anyone.
I didn't expect that today, such humble words would come out of Wuying's mouth.
"Not bad. You've been following me for so long, and you've learned a lot in this area. But don't worry, look at the way we're dressed. As long as you don't say anything, will others find out that we're in a gang?"
At first, when he was asked to change his clothes, Brother Wuying was not very happy.
The tight suits are indeed not very comfortable to wear, but compared to their previous casual outfits, the two of them look absolutely very stylish in suits.
Just as the two were talking, Mr. David, whom they were paying attention to, had already walked out of the aisle of the plane.
Regardless of who they collaborate with, it will be an improvement for Hong Kong's film and television industry. But for European and American film and television, this is also an opportunity to expand the foundation of film and television.
"Mr. David, thank you very much for coming to our site for this field trip. Please trust our film industry. The strength of our film and television company will definitely not let you down!"
"Mr. He, I understand your intentions and believe your film and television company has a very good foundation. I hope we can see each other's better side in our future cooperation."
Although He Zhe'nan is very confident, he is more aware that the Hong Kong film and television industry has reached a bottleneck.
But as long as they raise funds from European and American film and television companies, or even spend a lot of money to import movies, it will be enough for their film and television companies to survive.
"Mr. David, I've heard a lot about you!"
Just as He Zhe-nan was chatting about the bright future of the two companies, Zhou Shengpeng suddenly appeared, catching both parties off guard. Although He Zhe-nan was upset, he couldn't show it for the sake of face.
