Chapter 61: Angry at Feng Xiaogang
After leaving the airport, Lingyun Media’s driver was already waiting at the door.
To Guan Ling's surprise, Yu Dong from Bona also drove to the airport and was waiting at the exit with the driver from Lingyun Media.
“After I learned about the flight, I wanted to come and meet Dao Guan at the airport, but I forgot that Guan Dao’s company must have gotten the news before us.” Yu Dong smiled like a Maitreya Buddha.
How could I forget? The other party came here to show his face and show his favor.
Guan Ling said thank you, but felt clear in his heart. However, given Yu Dong's current status, he came to the airport to pick people up in person, which was enough face.
Mother Liu and others got off the plane with Guan Ling. Lingyun Media brought a business bread, which was enough for people to sit down.
Mother Liu was a little at a loss at this moment.
She knew Yu Dong from Bona. She had met too many big guys at Chen Jinfei’s place before, but Yu Dong came to pick them up in person without any special notice. This profound meaning , which left Mother Liu to ponder a bit.
"I'm so sorry." Guan Ling went over to shake hands with Yu Dong, "You're wasting too much time. Let's wait for another day. I have something to do and have to go back to the company first."
"Then Director Guan is busy first. I'll leave with Producer Zhang first? When Director Guan is free, I'll be the host, and then Director Guan will be rewarded."
"Okay, this I've been eating Western food in the United States for a while, and it made me feel sick." Guan Ling smiled and nodded in agreement, and he had to sit down and talk with Bona and China Film.
In the car, Guan Ling and others got in.
Chen Xia was reporting on her recent visit to Lingyun Media in the car.
"Mr. Guan, the recent results of "Shark Beach" are very good. Liu Yan is now the first female star born in the 1980s to have a starring role with a box office of over 100 million. Now she has received many endorsements and announcements , there are also many acting appointments.
I have specially assigned assistants and agents to her. There is too much business for one person to deal with. The agent handles it on a merit-based basis. .
But in terms of filming, do you think Ling Yun has any projects recently? Should we accept them or not?”
“Is the recent project suitable for Liu Yan’s role? "More, let the management team consider the creation of her character."
Guan Ling thought for a moment and found that among the scenes he wanted to shoot next, there was indeed no role that was suitable for Liu Yan.
“How did the other things go?”
"We have recruited some people in the agency department and production department. Since we sent out the recruitment news, many people have submitted their resumes. But I haven't been able to completely screen them."
"On the director's side, there are some There are a few good prospects, but I need confirmation from Director Guan.”
Chen Xia brought over a resume. The photo on the resume didn’t look very good, but the name attracted Guan Ling’s attention.
"Yang Qing?"
"This person graduated from the Acting Department of Sichuan Music and applied for the Adult Directing Department of the Central Academy of Drama. He has been working in various crews since 2003. It can be said that he has worked as a recorder, director assistant, camera assistant, coordinator, screenwriter, etc. I have met him once. The young man is a bit hard-working, and it seems that he is very determined to stay in Lingyun. "
< br>Guan Ling recognized him when he looked at the photo. He was the director of "Nightclub" and "Hot Pot Hero" in his previous life. He is definitely incomparable to Guo Fan, Xin Yukun, Wen Muye and the like. He is not that famous, but It is indeed a workable material.
But the famous ones in the back haven’t come to BJ yet.
The second one surprised Guan Ling a little.
Lu Yang. The director of "Embroidered Spring Knife" is a junior in Nortel's directing department and his direct junior brother. Now he happens to need to go out to work, so Lingyun Media, Guan Ling's side, naturally became the best choice.
I looked through the resume that Chen Xia handed over again, and few of the remaining people were impressed.
"This guy's name is Zhang Tianhui. He's not old, but he has quite a lot of work experience. He just studied photography at Nortel this year. He's only a freshman and he came to our company to apply." Chen Xia pointed to the person at the end of his resume. , "This guy has some screenwriting skills, I think he is also a talent."
Guan Ling felt that the name was a bit familiar, and it took him a while to react before he remembered who this person was.
This man is a bit unlucky.
The director of the movie "The Chaser" is Cao Baoping, but in fact the director at the beginning was Zhang Tianhui, because the script was written by him who personally went to Yunnan to collect stories and spent three years writing it. The original title was "Border Town Murder", and it also won the Golden Letter Award from the Literature Department of the BJ Film Academy and the Best Supporting Screenplay Award.
It is said that this guy changed 26 drafts of the script alone.
Cao Baoping was the executive chairman of the Golden Word Award at the time.
It was originally planned that he would be the director and Cao Baoping would be the producer. However, after the investors completed their investment, the film director was directly appointed and this guy was kicked out.
"These are good ones. Come meet me later." Guan Ling designated these three people.
These are talented people. Guan Ling feels that if you give them some time, he has many movies that he can give to them. Especially for some domestic low-cost movies, it is better to let them shoot them than to shoot them yourself.
“Recently, many agents have come to the lobby to discuss your new project. Wang Jinghua, Chang Jihong, Li Xiaowan and others have all come to ask. The popularity of "Shark Beach" has made them very eager to follow up. Guide you to communicate
Wang Changtian from Guangxian and Zhong Lifeng from Galloping Horse sent many invitations to Lingyun Media.
Director Jiang Da also came here. When he learned that you were not here, he did not stay. "
Guan Ling couldn't help but smile when he heard this. The most popular agent group in Beijing, as well as several relatively large film production and distribution companies, are a little restless now. Jiang Wen, most likely just want to come and chat with him. Let’s chat, or maybe it’s because of the script I mentioned.
“I don’t have any projects recently, so don’t worry about it for now. ”…………
Arrived at the company and rested for a long time.
The news of Guan Ling’s return to China has become noisy on the Internet again.
Mobile phone There were a lot of text messages, congratulations and dinner dates. They had already sent "Shark Beach" before. In foreign countries, Guan Ling didn't reply much. This time, the issue of the distribution rights of "Hearing Girl" frightened everyone.
So more and more congratulatory messages were sent.
When Zhu Yawen called, he was still a little stupid.
"Guanzi, a year ago, you lent me 30,000 yuan, and a year later, you made 200 million yuan. I can't believe you screwed my head off."
"I'll screw you off for nothing." What are you doing with your head? You can't be a urinal." Guan Ling was having trouble with his dormitory roommates, so he looked like a fool in his early twenties.
“If you can urinate money, it’s no problem to be a urinal.”
Zhu Yawen said in poverty, “My scene in “The Ming Dynasty” has been filmed, Director Zhang He said I was too handsome and ended up playing the role of Feng Bao. The filming of "Enter Guandong" has just started, and I am playing the third male lead. It is difficult for me to ask for leave when I come back to BJ. "
"Okay. Come back and talk about it."
"I feel happy just thinking about it. Sister Hua asked me about you two days ago. Now the whole capital, no, the whole China, wants to invite you. There are too many people eating. Director Zhang Xinjian and Director Kong here are also shocked by you, but even so, you have to treat me to dinner."
After hanging up the phone.
Zhu Yawen turned around and saw little Song Jia and Huang Xiaolei looking at him, and asked strangely: "Sisters, what's wrong? You have to come and listen even if I call?"
" Is that Director Guan over there? You just called him Guanzi?" The two of them immediately realized what they heard about 200 million.
"College roommates, it's normal to talk casually." Zhu Yawen knew that the two of them would definitely ask for their contact information next, so he turned around and ran away, "The director called me to film."
...
On the Internet, the news about Guan Ling at the airport was revealed. The reporter was from the UC Shock Department and his naming skills were very good!
"Director Guan threatened to destroy Huayi's golden brand!"
After these remarks came out, everyone thought Guan Ling was really crazy, but behind the madness, there was real capital.
Hua Yibie has seen so many movies, and in terms of performance, Feng Xiaogang and Guan Ling are just about the same.
"Shark Beach" directly crushed "Project Baby", and "Hearing Girl" directly broke the domestic film purchase price record for distribution rights. News about these two things is hanging on the Internet. In addition to being If the crowd laughs, there is no other choice.
One afternoon, there was a huge quarrel on the Internet.
Some are siding with Huayi, some are siding with Guan Ling, there are fans of Huayi’s artists who are madly competing online, and there are also Liu Yan’s 36-year-old fans who come out to cheer for Liu Yan and Guan Ling. To hurt someone with a weapon! Trying to make the opponent's crowd switch sides based on the murder weapon.
Guan Ling is too lazy to pay attention to this matter. He is thinking about his next movie.
In fact, for Huayi, if you snipe it, it's over. If you say it feels good, the other party will pay for it. Even if this matter is over, after all, the other party has not gone public, and Guan Ling cannot directly cause the other company's market value to plummet. After all, Huayi's size is here, and Guan Ling cannot swallow it.
In fact, it's enough if you feel good about it. After all, he let out a bad breath.
The result was when Guan Ling was thinking about a new movie.
After a while, I answered the phone. After answering, I found out it was Feng Xiaogang.
"Director Guan, I heard that you are going to take down the signboard for Huayi. Come over quickly and ask. Don't hit me when you take down the signboard." Feng Xiaogang also felt that what he said was quite humorous,< br>
“We are all big Hollywood directors, so there is no need to hold on to Huayi, right? Forget it if we win, why bother adding jokes to the news?
Huayi is such a big company. No matter how awesome you are, can you really break it down?
It’s okay for us to be high-spirited. After all, we are not very old, but the pattern needs to be enlarged. It is difficult to realize your ambition and ambition in such a small pattern now. It’s a pattern. I heard Mr. Wang say, if it’s such a big deal, it’s over.
What do you mean, Director Guan, give me some face?”
Guan Ling was slapped in the face by Feng Xiaogang, and then he understood why others called him Feng Gangpao.
"You are so yin and yang, it's a bit disgusting." Guan Ling replied to him, "Why should I give you face? We are just acquaintances. The call you made today was to ask for help, so you have to beg for help. attitude.”
Feng Xiaogang was shocked and stunned by Guan Ling's response.
"Boy, Wang Shuo wasn't as crazy as you back then. I've been making movies for so many years, and I still don't have any respect for you?"
Feng Xiaogang is really a bit defensive, in terms of performance Guan Ling acted in two movies, and his results were almost at the same level as him. But in terms of qualifications, Guan Ling is still far behind.
When Wang Zhongjun called him, he was quite irritable. Unexpectedly, he called Guan Ling. His original intention was to reconcile the conflict, but he ended up being criticized.
“Little guy, don’t make a few popular movies, and your tail will rise to the sky.”
“Okay, Director Feng, finish these few sentences. This Huayi’s signature, I’m really determined, let alone you Feng Xiaogang, if there are ten more Feng Xiaogangs, Huayi will have to pick them up!”
