Chapter Thirty-ninth Where We Don't Meet
Smile and the interview continues.
"You seem to be very...unfavorable to Hong Kong and Taiwan actors?"
Fang Zhijie thought for dozens of seconds and finally found a suitable adjective.
"How is that possible? How dare I not stand them! Hong Kong and Taiwan actors are so precious, and they can start with a single million role!"
Xu Hui's tone was filled with indescribable disdain.
Well, Fang Zhijie understood: "You mean they are expensive?"
"It's not a question of whether it's expensive or not, let's talk about the role of Chen Lian. If I look for Xie Tingfeng, can I guarantee that he will shoot according to my requirements? Even if he can, can his market value guarantee the box office of "Embroidered Chun Dao" be reimbursed... No one can guarantee it, so why do I have to spend millions to find him?"
"But Deng Chao has not proved it..."
"But Brother Chao is more popular with the audience! We mainland directors always think that Hong Kong and Taiwan actors are precious. In fact, we really have to do with acting skills and performance, we are no worse than them!"
"Okay, I wish "The Embroidered Spring Sword" a big hit at the box office!"
"Thank you for auspicious words!"
In Fang Zhijie's view, Xu Hui's concept is a bit extreme.
Yes, HK actors are a bit expensive, but our audience recognizes them. You suddenly let Deng Chao, Wu Jing and Yu Shaoqun play the leading roles. How could the audience enter the theater to watch the movies?
Alas! A good movie, I guess I will lose money!
"By the way, Xu Hui, what are your plans after "The Embroidered Spring Sword"?"
"Well, I will release a new song in September and join the crew to film in October. I may tinker with a new work later."
Xu Hui thought about it and it seemed like this year's itinerary.
"New work? What new work? Or action movies?"
Fang Zhijie was very excited. Through this conversation, he felt that Xu Hui was a very thoughtful new director who could restrain his desire to express himself just to make the audience more accepting his works.
This is the qualities that a mature commercial film director possesses!
A director like Xu Hui is worth looking forward to.
"It should be a youth film that reflects the youth stories of those born in the 1980s. This time I think most of them have launched newcomers."
"Will you participate in the show?"
"Of course, as long as it is my movie, I will show my face, even if it's just a passerby..."
Xu Hui looked for granted.
Just like the father of Marvel, he always appears in all of his Marvel hero movies, of course, just a guest appearance.
...
The interview with "Popular Movie" has just ended. Xu Hui received a call from Huang Wen and asked him to go to the studio. For the time being, the interviewer of "Love Movie" has also come.
The sales of these movie magazines are not that good. Apart from real hardcore movie fans, few people buy this type of magazines, but they have a good reputation in the circle.
Many second- and third-tier actors are proud to be on the covers of these two magazines.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Hui looked at his cell phone and it was already afternoon.
He hurried out of the cafe and got in the car and drove towards Huayi Brothers Media.
Well, it’s a cafe again, I can only say it’s not Starbucks!
After arriving at Huayi, before he saw Huang Wen, Wang Zhonglei came over with a smile on his face: "Xu Hui, here he is here!"
Xu Hui was a little surprised, but he still bowed slightly politely.
"You don't know yet. "Embroidered Chun Dao" is crazy. The companies in Beijing just called me and told me that they were almost full!"
No wonder I'm so polite to me.
What have you been doing long ago?
"It's all about our Huayi connections, otherwise it wouldn't be possible to have a 27% screening volume!"
Of course, Wang Zhonglei was a little contemptuous in his heart, but compliments on the surface were still indispensable. After all, he was not ready to pay tribute yet.
"Well, Xu Hui, I'm not wrong..."
Wang Zhonglei wanted to reach out and pat Xu Hui on the shoulder, but the latter dodged for no trace: "By the way, Mr. Wang, the people who love movies are still waiting for me, I'll go there first!"
It is said that Wang Zhonglei has a double plug. Although he doesn't know whether it is true or not, Xu Hui still feels a little awkward, so he found an excuse and said goodbye and left.
After all, my buddy is a pure man who is even more straighter than steel bars!
"...Xiao Chen, please help me check if there are any other companies contacting Xu Hui during this period, and focus on checking Chengtian Entertainment!"
Wang Zhonglei frowned slightly, and always felt that there was always a kind of alienation between Xu Hui and him. This alienation began after the completion of "The Embroidered Spring Sword"!
Could someone be trying to poach him?
Haha, if he knew that Xu Hui avoided him, in addition to Huayi's poor performance a few days ago, Wang Zhonglei's reputation was not good, and he would probably be so angry that he vomited blood!
How did I know that the market performance of "Embroidered Spring Sword" will be so powerful?
I just received the news that in one morning, the box office of "Embroidered Chunjian" across the country exceeded 4 million. The most conservative estimate is that today, the box office of "Embroidered Chunjian" will exceed 10 million.
It exceeded 10 million on the first day, which was the treatment Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiao had just received!
It exceeded 10 million on the first day, and the total box office is likely to exceed 100 million!!
Li Bingbing and Deng Chao have played the role of starring roles. "Li Mi's Conjecture" and "Yunshui Ballad" are also good movies, with a bleak box office...
The only reason is Xu Hui!
This amazing box office appeal!
Huayi has directors of two billion yuan clubs under its umbrella!
Think about "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", if you exceed 10 million in five days, you can be praised as Fan Bingbing's box office appeal is amazing...
Wang Zhonglei regretted it a little. If Xu Hui was promoting "Embroidered Spring Sword" some time ago, the company would have given him more support.
Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world!
...
As soon as he walked into the office, Xu Hui saw a beautiful figure.
It was probably the reporter who interviewed him. He coughed quickly, and then the girl turned around and said, "Hello, I am Xu Hui... Why are you?"
Xu Hui rarely loses his composure. When he saw the reporter's face clearly, he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Isn't it me? Young Master Hui, we're meeting again!"
Chen Farong squeezed her eyes playfully.
"Hello! Didn't you work in that Entertainment Weekly? How could it be..."
"I've changed jobs, by the way, Mr. Hui, why didn't you contact me the business card I left for you?"
The girl's tone was a little sad.
“…”
Xu Hui was speechless.
Why can I contact you because of it?
It is an unusual encounter, and forgetting each other is the best choice!
The scene is a bit awkward.
"Since you know each other, it's easy to deal with. If you talk, I'll go out first!"
Huang Wen didn't understand what was going on. It was obvious that the girl was a fan of Xu Hui. Then the two of them clapped each other. After the applause, the girl felt very satisfied and wanted to do it again, so she left Xu Hui with contact information, but how could this scumbag Xu Hui contact a woman who had already applauded...
Very messy!
"Did you have meal?"
After Huang Wen left, Xu Hui asked naturally.
There is no such thing as a scumbag who is said to be abandoned all the time.
"not yet."
"Let's go, let's find a place to eat and chat!"
Chapter completed!
