Chen Daoming thought for a while and decided that Zhang Xiao was right, so he said, "How about? Let me try?"

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "No need to try, you will definitely be fine. The New Year will be in three weeks. During this time, I will let the TV station do some preparations first. When the New Year is over, we will start preparations. How about

?”

"Okay, then it's settled!" Chen Daoming nodded heavily.

After finishing the variety show "The Cultivation of an Actor", Zhang Xiao suddenly looked at Chen Daoming. Chen Daoming was stunned and asked: "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"

Zhang Xiao said: "Teacher Chen, a sudden inspiration came to my mind just now, and I want to make a drama-style movie."

"What is a drama-style movie?" Chen Daoming obviously didn't understand this term.

Zhang Xiao explained: "It's very simple. It's just to find a group of people with excellent acting skills and use their lines and acting skills to support a movie in one scene."

"Hiss~~" Chen Daoming took a breath after hearing this and said with some disbelief: "This is not something ordinary people can do."

Zhang Xiao nodded and said: "That's why I said I want someone with excellent acting skills, but I'll write out the script first when I get back, and I want to create a role for you as a wealthy businessman. What do you think?"

"Okay!" After hearing this identity role, Chen Daoming became interested instantly and said, "But will this affect the preparation of "The Cultivation of an Actor"?"

"Of course not!" Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "As long as a suitable actor is found for this kind of movie, it will probably be completed in about ten days."

If someone said that a movie can be shot in ten days, Chen Daoming would never believe it. But Zhang Xiao is different. He is a recognized great director in the world, and his honors are now greater than those of Chen Daoming.

If you do more, you will definitely not do anything that damages your reputation.

Therefore, Chen Daoming nodded and said: "Okay, after what you said, I am looking forward to your script."

···

An hour later, the Jinzun dinner was over, and Zhang Xiao and Yang Mi went home.

On the way, Zhang Xiao asked him about the film schedule of Andy Lau's "The Crowd".

Yang Mi looked at Zhang Xiao and said: "Husband, even on average, the number of films scheduled for each of the sixteen movies is only 6%. Plus the films our company participated in the filming, the number of films will definitely be higher.

A little more, which is why "The Crowd" was not scheduled."

Zhang Xiao asked again: "Is there no other way?"

"No!" Yang Mi replied decisively: "There are only so many movie screens. Increasing the schedule of "The Crowd" will definitely affect the schedule of other movies, unless "The Crowd" can be withdrawn from the Spring Festival schedule.

"

Zhang Xiao thought for a while and said: "Mimi, the total number of screens in China is 72,000. It seems that it can't keep up with the rapid development of the domestic film industry. Have you ever thought about investing in building a theater chain?

"

Yang Mi said straightforwardly: "I have thought about it, but I have no money."

Zhang Xiao said: "I will handle the money matter, and your Qingtian Entertainment Company will be responsible for the specific matters. How about that?"

Yang Mi did not answer directly, but looked at Zhang Xiao with surprise and asked: "Husband, how many screens do you want to build?"

Zhang Xiao stretched out a finger and said, "How about ten thousand yuan?"

Hearing that Zhang Xiao actually wanted to do so many screens at once, Yang Mi laughed and scolded: "You are really a big dog!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Zhang Xiao rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Hurry up and calculate for me how much it will cost."

Yang Mi said: "It depends on what kind of cinema you build."

"No need to ask, of course it's the best!" Zhang Xiao said.

Yang Mi pondered for a while and said: "If you don't count the rent, an IMAX screen plus related supporting facilities will cost about 3 million. In other words, 10,000 screens will cost at least 30 billion."

Zhang Xiao asked: "Is it U.S. dollars or soft coins?"

Yang Mi said angrily: "Of course it's a soft girl coin."

Zhang Xiao immediately calculated the equivalent amount of U.S. dollars and said: "That is almost more than four billion U.S. dollars. There is no problem with this amount of money. I will ask Clark to call you tomorrow."

Yang Mi added: "In addition to money, if you want to build a cinema, you also need approval from the Department of Culture."

Zhang Xiao waved his hand and said: "Then prepare all the relevant materials, and I will go to the Department of Culture to handle this matter."

"Okay!" Yang Mi agreed with a smile.

If we can invest in another theater chain and acquire 10,000 screens, Qingtian Entertainment will have an even greater say in the entertainment industry in the future.

Zhang Xiao asked again: "What about Brother Hua?"

Yang Mi shook her head helplessly and said: "There is really nothing we can do about this matter. Husband, don't forget, we are only small shareholders of Longda Cinema and cannot affect their decision-making."

"Alas!" Zhang Xiao sighed and said, "Okay, I understand."

This incident made Zhang Xiao even more determined that he must build a theater chain of his own.

Even if other theaters are shareholders, they are still small shareholders after all. And sometimes, friends like Hua Ge are treated so sincerely. At the critical moment, when others speak up and he is still unable to help, Zhang Xiao still feels in his heart.

Survive the unexpected.

···

After returning home, Zhang Xiao called Liu Huade.

"Brother Hua, listen to my advice and withdraw "The Crowd" from the Spring Festival schedule!"

"No way?"

"Yang Mi and I have understood it. We have no way at all. There are too many interests involved in the film arrangement. I am not a major shareholder of Longda Cinemas, so I can't influence their decision-making."

"Okay, actually I also know that this matter is quite difficult for you. No matter what, I still want to thank you."

"Brother Hua, I plan to invest 30 billion to build a sunny cinema chain next year. Once it is completed, I believe there will be no problem with film scheduling."

"Really or not?"

"Of course it's true, the decision I just made."

"Damn, you have to be willful when you have money. Okay, I'll go talk to the producers and hope they can agree. Otherwise, "The Crowd" will definitely be finished."

···

Two days later, the official blog of the crew of "The Crowd" posted a message about withdrawing from the Spring Festival schedule.

Coincidentally, along with them, four other films have withdrawn from the Spring Festival schedule. As a result, there are only eleven movies left to participate in this year's Spring Festival schedule.

"Husband? What are you busy with again?" Yang Mi returned home and acted like a good wife and mother. She carried her child to the study room and asked curiously when she saw Zhang Xiao writing.

Zhang Xiao immediately stopped what he was doing, took the child, and said with a smile: "I'm writing a script."

Yang Mi asked: "What type of script is it?"
Chapter completed!
