Chapter 622: Teacher Chen, how about you being the director?
Huang Bai nodded when he heard this and said: "The four billion production cost of "Zhu Xian" is indeed quite expensive!"
Zhang Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "It's not four billion. I thought the post-production of "Zhu Xian" was too simple before. I thought four billion would be enough, but later I found out that it was not enough!"
"How much is that?" Huang Bai asked.
Zhang Xiao stretched out the thumb and little finger of his right hand and said: "If six billion can complete "Zhu Xian", then I will burn high incense."
"Oh my god, it's nearly one billion US dollars!" Huang Bai was shocked when he heard Zhang Xiao's words.
The audience at the scene also took a breath of cold air. If one billion US dollars is spent to make a movie, I am afraid that only Zhang Xiao in the entire entertainment industry would dare to do anything like this.
Huang Bai on the stage looked at Zhang Xiao with admiration and said: "Brother, you are too cruel."
Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "As a man, you just have to be cruel to yourself."
A small baggage came out again, making everyone at the scene burst into laughter.
Soon, the entire Golden Bottle Awards party was over.
This year’s Golden Cup Award Ceremony, thanks to the hosting of Zhang Xiao and Huang Bai, the ratings of Qingtian TV exceeded 25%, and the views of Qingtian Video exceeded 300 million. This is the best performance of the Golden Zun Award in the past ten years.
’s results.
The hosting by Zhang Xiao and Huang Bai has been highly praised by netizens.
After the awards ceremony of the Jinzun Film Festival, Yang Mi and Zhang Xiao, as hosts, held a grand Jinzun dinner. Artists from all over the country were holding red wine and chatting in groups.
Liu Huade found Zhang Xiao and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, your performance tonight is very good. Have you ever thought about being a host?"
"Brother Hua, you'd better call me by my name!" Zhang Xiao quickly said modestly and replied: "As for being a host, I'm definitely not interested. I'm just here to make a guest appearance tonight, with those professional hosts.
Compared to that, I am still far behind!"
Liu Huade smiled and said: "Don't be so modest. By the way, there is something I want to thank you for!"
Zhang Xiao was stunned when he heard this and asked: "What's going on?"
Liu Huade said truthfully: "In the last financial war around the world, I followed you to buy short and made nearly 100 million US dollars. Do you think I should thank you properly?"
"Oh~~" Zhang Xiao suddenly realized: "It turns out that you have made money, so how can you thank me with your mouth? Shouldn't there be something practical?"
Liu Huade rolled his eyes and said angrily: "You have already made tens of billions of dollars, and you still care about my little money? Let me tell you clearly, there is no way."
"Haha!" Zhang Xiao laughed loudly and said, "Brother Hua, I have never had too little money."
After the two had a laugh, Liu Huade said again: "By the way, Zhang Xiao, I have something I want to ask you for help with."
"What's the matter?" Zhang Xiao asked with a straight face.
Liu Huade said: "I made a movie called "The Crowd" and it will be released during the Spring Festival."
When Zhang Xiao heard this, he quickly said: "Brother Hua, you don't want me to go to the premiere, do you? I'm not the kind of person who only says good things but not bad things."
He was afraid of going to the premiere of his friend's movie. After attending, those people would definitely want Zhang Xiao to give a speech.
If the film is good, then a few words of praise will be enough, but if the quality of the film is average, even if Zhang Xiao is beaten to death, he will not be able to say anything unconscionable.
Liu Huade naturally knew Zhang Xiao's character. He shook his head and said: "It's not about the premiere, it's about the film schedule. Qingtian now has more than 50 theaters across the country and Hong Kong Island, and you are one of the shareholders of Longda. You
Can we increase the number of filming for "The Crowd"?"
Zhang Xiao was stunned when he heard this, looked at Liu Huade and said: "Brother Hua, is the film schedule of "The Crowd" very poor? Do you still need to come to me personally?"
In Zhang Xiao's opinion, given Andy Lau's celebrity status, the number of films scheduled for his films should not be low.
Liu Huade explained with a wry smile: "It's not bad, it's very bad. There are a total of 16 movies to be released during the Spring Festival this year, and the investors of 12 of them are from theaters like you, so our "Surge of Crowds"
"There is no theater support, so the film schedule is not even 2%, and the screening time is not early in the morning, but during lunch."
"In this case, it would be weird if it can get box office. There is no other way, so I can only shamelessly come to you and see if I can help you."
After hearing Liu Huade's words, Zhang Xiao did not reply to him immediately, but said to him: "Brother Hua, I will give you news tomorrow. As you know, I usually don't care about Qingtian's affairs, so I can't do anything about it."
Know what’s going on inside.”
Liu Huade nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for your call. Regardless of whether it's successful or not, I'll thank you."
Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "We are all brothers, there is no need to be so polite."
After chatting with Liu Huade, teacher Chen Daoming found Zhang Xiao again.
"Zhang Xiao, have you forgotten that variety show we talked about before?" Chen Daoming found Zhang Xiao and patted his shoulder and asked.
Zhang Xiao was stunned and quickly remembered that when he was training the actors during the filming of "Zhu Xian", Chen Daoming had said that he wanted to create a variety show dedicated to training young actors.
So he quickly said: "Teacher Chen, how could I forget this? Qingtian Entertainment is currently short of artists. If we can find a few capable young actors from the show to join, it will be a great benefit to them and Qingtian Company."
It’s all a good thing!”
Chen Daoming nodded and said again: "Jiang Wen, Zhou Xun, I have practiced. They said that as long as there are no tricks, they will definitely participate."
Zhang Xiao understood the concerns of these two people very well. After all, whether it was Jiang Wen or Zhou Xun, they were both real actors, not show-offs.
Zhang Xiao naturally understands this, and he will never allow fishy things to appear in Qingtian's variety show.
Zhang Xiao looked at Teacher Chen Daoming and asked: "Teacher Chen, have you decided on the name of this variety show?"
Chen Daoming pondered for a while and said: "What do you think of the name "Actor's Rest"?"
"Actor's recuperation?" Zhang Xiao murmured and nodded: "Okay."
Chen Daoming obviously attached great importance to this program, and said again: "I wrote a planning project there, and I will send it to you when I get back. You are a great director and screenwriter. See if there is anything inappropriate and help.
Change it again.”
Zhang Xiao's heart moved and he said: "Teacher Chen, how about you be the chief director of "The Actor's Rest"?"
"What? I'm a director?" Chen Daoming was a little stunned, and quickly waved his hands and said: "No, I have no experience in directing."
Zhang Xiao shook his head and said: "For a variety show like this, the most important thing is not experience, but whether you can be selfless. In my opinion, you are the most suitable person in the circle because of your identity."
It can make those entertainment companies afraid."
