Chapter 459 Arrival at Mountain City


In the previous life, "Crazy Stone" still achieved a box office of 25 million when it had almost no support and even ended up over budget and had to rely on the crew to scrape together money.

And all viewers who are familiar with this work will sigh.

“Hey, if this film is released to future generations, it won’t have a box office of 1 billion!”

Zhang Yuan feels that he doesn’t know if it has 1 billion. After all, because he has no money, he has to spend more time on the camera and editing. Yes, it's actually pretty rough.

But in terms of plot and story, this film can definitely sweep away all the so-called high-cost productions.

Especially at the time of his release in 2006.

Compared with him are three of the country’s top exporters, including a number of costume dramas headed by “The Promise”.

It cost hundreds of millions to even explain the most basic story clearly. On the other hand, this small-budget film tells a story with multiple parallel narrative lines clearly and clearly, and has contributed countless Famous scenes and famous lines.

People are not blind, they know who is doing things carefully and who is cheating money.

So Zhang Yuan feels that his thoughts are the same as those of the audience. The box office of 25 million definitely underestimates the strength of this film.

He personally starred in the film and got China Film to invest in it, all in order to increase the potential of this film.

In addition to these two moves, he also has another trick up his sleeve.

Now, just in time, this hand called him.

“Hello.” Zhang Yuan stood up, left the wine table, and hid aside.

"Are you busy?" Fan Bingbing asked when she heard the noisy voice on the other side of the phone.

"Eating out, what's going on?"

"Thank you very much. According to your idea, Hua Yi and I discussed the stock shares."

"Now it's 30 cents per share. The price is to sell me 500,000 shares, but it needs to be kept secret and no one can know it."

"Then you still tell me," Zhang Yuan replied with a smile.

“You are different.”

Zhang Yuan did the math and found that his gambling agreement was for 6% of Huayi shares, which is approximately equivalent to 6 million shares.

500,000 shares is a lot, and the income will be tens of millions in the future. I am not too kind to her.

And only when the aftermath of Sister Hua's escape was undecided, could she have the opportunity to negotiate with Hua Yi.

Because her contract ended in 2007, and Hua Yi was trying to attract star shareholders by doing performance in order to go public, which happened to be stuck after she left.

So she can't take advantage of this wave of dividends at all.

"That's good, you can just sit back and wait for the appreciation."

"Hahaha, I got this in exchange for the film contract. After all, the Wang brothers are now using film contracts to win over people."

"Everyone else has chosen the one who made the film contract."

"If the shares I bought don't appreciate in value, I will suffer a big loss, and I will bite you to death by then."

"Bite Where?" Zhang Yuan asked sincerely.

Fan Bingbing:...

"Why don't you look upright?" Mr. Fan said while laughing.

It's like I held you upside down when you were not in shape, but now you are always teasing me.

She didn’t understand that on the set of "Little Fish and Flowers", Zhang Yuan ignored her in order to ensure that nothing went wrong.

Even when I started playing with Teacher Yuan, it was only after the matter was settled.

Between career and women, Zhang Yuan would choose career without hesitation.

“By the way, remember at Huayi’s cocktail party before, I told you to help me make a cameo.”

“Now I can cash it in.”

Zhang Yuan probably talked to her.

Fan Ye generously agreed to appear, and said it would be completely free of charge.

The role prepared for her was the girlfriend of Brother Dao in the three-person gang. The role was designed to be a sexy girl.

And Fan Xiaopanggang won the Popular Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress for her role as Wu Yue, a coquettish and passionate character in "Mobile Phone".

In addition, there are not many scenes, so it will not affect her schedule for too long, so it is just right.

With her, coupled with her own performance and the support of China Film and Television, Zhang Yuan's "transformation" of "Crazy Stone" was completed.

"Now even if you play a small guest role, you will still be paid millions. I can't lose you."

"Let's do this. After the movie is released, I will give you 3% of the box office revenue in return."

"Okay." Fan Bingbing agreed with a smile and did not refuse.

She thought that the box office of such a small-budget movie would be several million at most, and 3% would only cost tens of thousands of dollars, which was about nothing.

Just think of Huayi stock as a reward for him.

Fan Bingbing is pretty cool.

After making an appointment with this person, Zhang Yuan put down his cell phone and returned to the wine table.

"Yuan, thank you for what happened last time." Uncle Guoli held the wine glass and sat next to him.

“It’s no big deal if you’re on your own.”

Zhang Guoli clinked glasses with him.

What he said was that nursery rhymes were kicked out of the crew.

"You have made great progress recently. You dare to negotiate with the Wang brothers." Uncle Guoli obviously learned about the contract between him and Hua Yi from some channels.

"I can't lag behind, old man. I plan to make a movie myself."

"You know about the recent leak of celebrity phone calls."

"Your Aunt Deng I’m getting tired of receiving harassing phone calls every day, so I plan to make a movie about it.”

“How about you, are you interested in helping me?”

Zhang Yuan's heart trembled.

How do you say this...

As an actor, Zhang Guoli is a good actor, but as a director, TV series are okay, but movies are really not what he is capable of.

He probably guessed that the play is called "The 601st Phone Call", which is based on the leaked phone calls of 600 celebrities in 2005.

His wife Deng Jie is one of the main victims.

That's why he draws materials from life and wants to make movies.

This is a bad movie!

Of course Zhang Yuan doesn’t want to act in a bad movie.

But sometimes favors cannot be wiped away.

"Okay, as long as I have time, I will definitely come to help." He could only reply.

"Okay, I'm relieved with your words." Zhang Guoli patted his shoulder with satisfaction.

But he quickly frowned.

“What a stupid website!”

“What I hate most now is not the person who leaked the phone number, but the website!”

“Not only is it irresponsible, but also The law can’t hold you accountable, so you’re angry.”

Zhang Yuan just chuckled and did not answer.

The monitoring system is not yet developed these days, and it is basically impossible to find the true source of posts on the Internet.

And websites and forums are too busy to talk to you.

After finishing the meal, he returned to the small courtyard to rest.

Thinking about how to decline Zhang Guoli’s invitation when the time comes.

If you really can't refuse, then just act. Who hasn't acted in a few bad movies?

It is not uncommon in the entertainment industry to make bad movies just to repay a favor, it is very common.

Brother Hua also filmed "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" in order to give Han Sanpin face.

Rubbing his brows and not thinking about these troublesome things, he thought about turning on the TV to relax.

Unexpectedly, after changing several channels, I switched to the CCTV comprehensive channel, and then I saw a familiar face.

"Although I am an artist in the entertainment industry."

"But I don't think they can slander and slander an actor without any limit or basis."

In front of the camera, Liu Qianqian wore Wearing a white printed sleeveless T-shirt and a pair of dark blue jeans on his lower body, he was sitting on a back chair and talking quietly.

In the lower right corner of the screen, it is shown that the name of this program is "Today's Statement: Rumors Are Easy to Fly".

She had called herself before and asked if she wanted to be on the show.

Now, in front of the camera, she seemed very relaxed, not too angry, and even gentle, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.

“Growing up.” Zhang Yuan stretched: “My psychological quality is stronger than before.”

The host of this program is Sa Beining.

In the end, after interviews and investigations, the results were the same as the phone leak incident.

The incident is still unresolved, and the person responsible cannot be found at all.

I only found an Internet cafe through the posting IP, and then nothing happened...

Whether it was netizens posting news out of boredom, or some rival companies deliberately spreading rumors, no one knows.

The website also said that it is like a telephone pole on the roadside. People post small advertisements. What does it have to do with me.

Those days were really primitive, unlike later generations where you could really follow the network cable and "hit someone."

But precisely because the Internet environment and supervision in those days were not very developed, it was filled with all kinds of "living people". Unlike later generations, celebrities' social media were basically operated by companies or public relations teams.

For example, Na Ying's one: Damn, the most annoying people are pretentious...

In those days, celebrities were more like people, and their mental states were very "subversive".

Various abstract behaviors are constant, no worse than those Internet celebrities later.

There are even some who are brushing off. Yang Mi even posted a selfie of herself taking a bubble bath in the bathtub.

Basically, Weibo is used as a circle of friends.

After watching this program, Zhang Yuan turned off the TV.

“The barbaric age of the Internet.”

“Okay, this way I have a chance to get a share of the pie.”

“When everything matures and the dust settles, what will happen? There are still opportunities for ordinary people to get involved.”

I called Liu Qianqian and praised her performance on TV.

"You've been great lately. My mother and godfather are praising you." Xiao Longnu replied sweetly.

"That's not easy. To make your mother praise me, I have to go to the temple to burn incense."

"Humph, I told my mother that you were mocking her behind her back!"< br>
"Okay, just tell me. Once your mother gets angry, she won't let us meet again." Zhang Yuan said with a low smile.

"Uh... forget it." Liu Qianqian wrinkled her nose: "When do you have time."

"Let's go out to eat together."

"I'm going out of town recently, so I won't have time. I'll wait for a while." "Then I'll ignore you. I'll go and play with her and scold you with her."< br>


Zhang Yuanxin said, it’s good if you don’t help me scold you...

“Say hello to me and your mother and godfather. If you have time to eat, Call them together.”

"Ah, let's eat together... okay." Liu Qianqian pouted. She thought it was just the two of them eating together.

She didn’t understand that Zhang Yuan would be useful to Boss Chen in the future, so he had to maintain a good relationship.

Putting down the phone, I found that this girl has been very busy recently, probably making up classes at school.

She will graduate from Nortel in more than half a year.

You are still under the age of 18, so you have to graduate from a bachelor's degree.

Sure enough, if you come from a good family, your life path will be smooth, and you will be more than three or four steps ahead of your peers.

After a day or two of repairs, Zhang Yuan went to China Film to sign the investment agreement.

500,000 is just a drop in the bucket for China Film Group, not a number at all.

Yang Buting told Han Sanpin about this matter, and Lao Han even met him in person.

Because Hansanpin was first produced in the Emei Factory in Sichuan, and was born and raised in the Sichuan and Sichuan areas.

When I heard that this film was shot in a mountain city, I was very fond of it.

He also said that it is very good for new actors and new directors like them to work together and should be encouraged.

With the support of two senior executives of China Film Group, Zhang Yuan was completely relieved.

The next day, he rushed to the mountain city according to the agreement with Ning Hao.

After landing at Shancheng International Airport, Zhang Yuan took a taxi to a small hotel in JB District.

This crew is so poor that they don’t even have a car to pick them up at the airport.

"Welcome, welcome!" Ning Hao rented out a floor in this hotel, which was not much better than a guest house, for the crew members' accommodation, make-up, and fittings.

Seeing him coming, his big head with dark circles under his eyes hurriedly stood up to greet him.

Seeing his state, you can tell how much pressure he has been under recently.

I guess I have stayed up for countless all-nighters.

"Brother, if you come, we will have company!" Photographer Du Jie also rushed over and hugged him.

This person had to operate machines on the crew of "Little Fish and Flowers", but here, because he had filmed several movies, he was considered "experienced", so he became the director of photography, leading With four or five younger brothers, I no longer have to carry the machine myself.

He has only filmed two or three movies, and he is considered a veteran. It can be seen that most of the crew members are raw people.

Ning Hao’s wife Xing Aina has to work part-time in costume and makeup on the set.

“Brother Bo!” After Ning Hao led Zhang Yuan to the dressing room, there were several people changing clothes inside.

Zhang Yuan saw Huang Bo with shawl hair at a glance.

"Fuck, why are you here!" Huang Bo stepped forward and looked at him in surprise.

Ning Hao smiled evilly: "I deliberately kept it a secret from them."

"Give them a surprise."

In addition to this one, Liu Hua, who plays Brother Dao The teacher is also there.

Zhang Yuan stepped forward, shook hands with this person, and introduced each other.

This guy is quite humorous.

“With you here, our crew’s face can be considered as good.”

“Otherwise, Xiaobo and I are the ones who don’t deserve to be on the stage.” Liu Hua pointed at himself and Huang Bo's face.

"You're actually okay, he is indeed trembling." Zhang Yuan pointed at Huang Bo.

"Hahahaha..." Liu Hua patted his belly happily.

“I’ll kick you to death!” Huang Bo kicked him with a swing.

Everyone around them felt relieved when they saw that Zhang Yuan, a popular young boy, had no airs at all and was fooling around with others.

"By the way, you said you wanted me to vacate the role of Jingjing. Who did you find?" Ning Hao asked curiously.

"Thank you, thank you, hello...are you here?"

At this moment, several screams came from outside the door.

Accompanied by these excited voices, a gentle female voice emerged from the crowd and went straight to the room where they were.

In less than ten seconds, a figure with a casual ponytail, wearing an ordinary T-shirt and jeans, without any makeup but still unable to conceal her beauty, appeared in front of everyone.

"Zhang Yuan, here I come!"

"Hey, she is the one we are looking for."

Zhang Yuan pointed at Fan Bingbing standing outside the door.

"What the fuck..." Huang Bo cursed directly.

"How can such a big shot be tolerated by a small crew..." Brother Liu Hua also sighed.

"It's okay, I'm here with you." After Zhang Yuan said that, he stepped forward and welcomed the other party in.

"You give them a surprise, and I will give you a surprise too." He said to Ning Hao again.

Many male crew members on the crew didn't know where to move their hands when they saw Mr. Fan appear.

"She is quite busy. Today she will audition and set her makeup, and tomorrow she will fly to Guangdong Province to attend an event." Zhang Yuan and Ning Hao said.

"After a while, you will gather the roles of the character. She only has seven days of filming, so she must finish filming."

"Understood, I will coordinate it." Ning Hao knew Fan very well. What does Bingbing's joining mean to the film?

This is a big selling point!

He looked at Zhang Yuan gratefully.

Because he knows better that inviting this person here must have cost a lot of resources and favors.

It is so interesting for him to be so interested in this film.

【Received a thank you from Ning Hao, +1 for directing foundation and +1 for storyboarding skills! 】

“Everyone, go out first and let Bingbing change clothes.”

"Okay, let's go."

Except for women's clothing and makeup, everyone squeezed into the corridor.

“Brother, if you have enough face, you can even invite him.” Liu Hua praised with a thumbs up.

“Holy shit, she’s even prettier than on TV.” After Huang Bo saw Fan Xiaopang, he couldn’t help but be fucked…

“How much did you spend? "Ning Hao asked in a low voice.

"She didn't ask for it, she was just helping."

"You're not paying for it with flesh, are you." Ning Hao said with a smile.

“If it were her, I would also be willing to pay with my body.” Huang Bo answered.

All the staff around him nodded, and even a few women nodded.

Zhang Yuan felt that the orange situation was not good.

"With her acting, Xie Xiaomeng stole jade to pick up girls, and Brother Dao killed Xie Xiaomeng because of his girlfriend. These two things instantly made sense." Ning Hao nodded.

"Yes, it is reasonable for a man to risk his life for this woman."

"That's right." Everyone agreed.

After a long time, Fan Bingbing walked out of the room with her long hair disheveled.

A group of people immediately gathered around me asking for photos and autographs.

The costume designer came to Ning Hao.

"How are the clothes?"

"No need to try them on." The clothes shook his head: "She looks good in anything she wears."

"This is the first time I see her wearing colorful clothes. Real people with good-looking wigs."

"No, we don't try on clothes for the sake of appearance, but for the role!" Ning Hao said with a glare.

"Oh oh oh..." The costume designer lowered his head in embarrassment, forgetting his own job and focusing on admiring.

After struggling for a long time, it was finally done.

In fact, Zhang Yuan and Fan Ye’s costumes are the simplest.

Fan Bingbing just wears a coquettish female costume with a yellow hair wig.

No matter how you dress up, it is difficult to suppress your own appearance and temperament.

After setting the makeup and taking several sets of full body and detail photos, the clothes were packed and no one could move anymore.

“Let’s go, your flight should still have some time, I’ll treat you to a meal.”

“Can you eat spicy food?”

“Who are you looking down on? ." Fan Bingbing rolled her eyes at him: "Give me some spicy food!"

The two of them hurried to a nearby hot pot restaurant.

Looking at the deep red bottom of the pot, Zhang Yuan felt a little weak.

“You can’t spit fire from your butt tomorrow?”

“You can really eat such spicy food and have to work tomorrow without fear of getting acne?”

“No, I only have Occasionally you will get acne during your menstrual period, but at other times it will be fine no matter how much you stay up late, drink wine or eat spicy food." Mr. Fan replied confidently.

Zhang Yuan glanced at this fair-skinned person and thought that his genes were really good.

"Zhang Yuan?"

At the stall where they were chatting and waiting for the food to be served, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Look back.

"Kun Kun... no, Brother Kun?"

He did not expect that he would meet Chen Kun, whom he had not seen for several years, in this place.

"What a coincidence!"

"What a coincidence, why are you here?" Chen Kun smiled and put his hand on his shoulder.

“You are filming, too?”

“What are you filming? This is my hometown!” Chen Kun pushed him: “You don’t even know me, I’m just here I grew up in the JB area of ​​Shancheng."

"Hey, blame me, blame me... Come, sit down and eat together, we just served it."

Zhang Yuan then introduced the two of them to each other.

There were rumors in later generations that Chen Kun’s son was born to him and Fan Bingbing.

I won’t believe Zhang Yuan to death, these two faces can look like that!

What kind of genetic mutation will this cause?

“Let’s eat together. I happen to have a friend here too.” After saying that, Brother Kun pointed behind him.

Immediately, Zhang Yuan saw a beautiful figure with fairer skin than Fan Bingbing slowly walking towards a few people... (End of Chapter)
