Chapter 170 Gemini
Putting aside Fan Zhengtong's matter, Li Chen devoted himself to the post-production of "Thieves".
Warner is very anxious about New Line.
Li Chen handed over the negotiations with Warner to Tim, and Tim knew Chi You's bottom line.
After more than half a month of tug-of-war, the two parties signed a contract after the release of "The Golden Compass".
If Chiyou Pictures takes over New Line, it will have to sell no less than 25% of Chiyou Pictures' shares to Warner.
Furthermore, if Chiyou Pictures goes public in the future, Warner’s shares cannot be diluted.
New Line old Shay never dreamed of it.
The situation of two tigers competing for price that he wanted to see did not happen.
Tim is keeping an eye on the subsequent soundtrack and editing of "Thieves".
Li Chen and Liu Yifei got on the flight back to China.
"To Youth" has already started its road show in major cities in China.
The most popular among the starring actors is not Mainland Xu Xian Pan Yueming, who plays Chen Xiaozheng.
Nor is it Xiao Dongxie Yang Mi who plays Zheng Wei.
Not even the sweet-looking Jingtian who plays the school belle.
It was Hu Ge who played Lin Jing, the second male lead.
Taken together, none of them is as popular as Hu Ge alone.
At the same time, Zhang Manyu also added fire to "To Youth".
Southern Weekly News
“An exclusive interview with Zhang Manyu confirmed that the next film will start filming next year, but it will not be Chen Kexin’s "Ji Ma" or Jia Zhangke’s The Two Heroes."
< br>
"She is inconvenient to disclose the specific subject matter and content, but she told the media that it is a very challenging role."
"The director is Li Chen, who everyone guessed, and the producer is the producer of "To Youth" Filmmaker Andy Lau."
In an exclusive interview with Hong Kong media reporter Liu Tianlan.
Zhang Manyu said frankly that when she accepts a film, she considers it more based on the excellent quality of the film.
Try not to repeat previous roles.
Completely reject movies that only come to you because of your fame and market value.
As soon as the news was released, Zhang Manyu’s fans went crazy with joy.
“Maggie chooses Li Chen. It’s probably another award-winning film. It will start shooting next year. It won’t go to Venice, right?”
“Li Chen wants to win Venice for Maggie. After the movie, I will keep him at home, burn three sticks of incense in the morning and evening, and never break my promise!"
"Will this film be the one that will be nominated for the Olympics in Hong Kong next year, and it will be produced by Andy Lau, that's for sure! It cannot pass the trial!”
Mainland netizens also followed suit.
“If Zhang Manyu wins the Venice Best Actress, that would be a real achievement, the first person in the world.”
“There is nothing wrong with Zhang Manyu choosing DiCaprio, whether it is Chen Kexin or Jia Zhangke competing with DiCaprio The script, the awards, and the box office were all bombarded without any suspense.”
“Little Leo doesn’t look down on the prospects of “The Banquet” and “The Golden Jacket” to win the Olympics, and he will be in it next year! !”
“It’s better to go to Hong Kong Island to save the country. After all, there are not so many restrictions.”
The chairman of Hong Kong's Hong Kong Film Awards, Man Chun, and the vice-chairman of Hong Kong's Hong Kong Film Festival, Chan Ka Shang, also expressed their hope that the film could participate in Hong Kong's Olympic film competition next year.
The media called Yingyi Entertainment one after another, but the person in charge of Yingyi Entertainment only told the media that the matter was true.
The specific subject matter and content must still be kept confidential.
However, a piece of news was also revealed, in addition to the male and female protagonists.
Other supporting roles will all be selected from Hong Kong artists, this is also to achieve a better fit for the film.
Faced with the fierce media bombardment, Yang Siwei simply responded.
“You can pay attention to Rongchen Pictures’ film list plan next month.”
Huo Wenxi also contacted Yang Siwei immediately.
"Si Siwei, shouldn't the drama we talked about before be put on the schedule?"
Yang Si Siwei responded easily: "Sister Mani, don't worry, I agreed, Rong Chenying Karma will never break his promise.”
"The film list planned for the beginning of next month will include "Father's Love Continues"!"
Huo Wenxi was relieved and smiled: "Si, I don't know if we are involved in Director Li and Maggie's drama. Opportunities?"
Yang Siwei laughed: "Sister Mani, I can't decide this matter."
Huo Wenxi didn't bother much: "Okay, Director Li, hurry up. Have you returned to China?”
“It’s almost time to land,” Yang Siwei said with a smile.
Li Chen and Liu Yifei had just landed, and they quickly walked out of the VIP channel.
As soon as he got in the car, Li Chen's phone rang.
"Director Han, have you installed a tracker on me? As soon as I landed, your call came in."
Han Sanping sneered: "You When you were an unknown college student a few years ago?” “As soon as you get on the plane from Hollywood, you will be known in China.”
Liu Yifei was flipping through a magazine in the car.
Seeing the newly released first Golden Eagle Goddess Sun Li above, she pointed at Li Chen who answered the phone.
The meaning is self-evident: "You lost my Golden Eagle Goddess."
But in fact, Liu Yifei didn't care at all.
In Li Chen’s words, what is the value of the Golden Eagle Goddess?
It's not as high-end and classy as the halo of Bai Yueguang.
What's more, the most popular people that night were not the actors, but the two-time Supergirl champions Li Yuchun and Shang Wenjie.
"Come to China Film Group when you get back. I'll wait for you."
After saying that, he hung up the phone without any explanation.
Li Chen was stunned, and secretly said in his heart: "Why does it feel like Lao Han's speech is getting tougher and tougher.
"Could it be Lao Han who went to help straighten things up?"
The more Li Chen thought about it, the more likely it became.
Sure enough, when he met Han Sanping in the China Film Office, Li Chen clearly felt that Han Sanping's overall aura was more domineering.
As soon as Li Chen came in, he smiled and said: "Director Han, what are your orders for calling me here in such a hurry?"
Han Sanping stood up and glared at Li Chen angrily.
"Don't dare. How dare I tell you to delete a post and tell you not to move."
Li Chen laughed and sat down with Han Sanping.
"Director Han, don't blame me for this."
Han Sanping snorted: "Forget it, let's not talk about it."
"Zhang Manyu's movie What’s going on with the play? Is it because the subject matter can’t be adapted to the mainland?”
Li Chen was also dissatisfied with him: "Yes, the story does not conform to the domestic situation and can only be filmed on Hong Kong Island."
Han Sanping nodded: "Have you ever heard of Lao Chen's "Mei Lanfang"? Interested."
Li Chen looked at Han Sanping in surprise. One glance: "Forget it."
Han Sanping's eyes were clear: "Don't look at me like that. For this kind of biography that promotes traditional culture, China Film will support it even if it loses money."< br>
Li Chen gave Lao Han a thumbs up in his heart.
But Han Sanping's next words made Li Chen dumbfounded.
“Come down and send me a copy of your company’s film list for next year, and I’ll choose a few!”
Li Chen looked at Han Sanping and couldn’t help laughing: “Director Han, You are planning to make up for the money you lost on Chen Kaige!”
“No wonder you didn’t even blink when you talked about investing in “Mei Lanfang””
Han Sanping smiled domineeringly and said: "Why, there is no time when I didn't directly show you the schedule planned by China Film and let you choose for yourself."
"As a courtesy, shouldn't you bring your company's film list for me to choose from?"
Li Chen gave Han Sanping a thumbs up: "Okay, Director Han, you can rob someone." I'm convinced. I'll send it to you later."
Han Sanping couldn't help but laugh: "That's right!"
When Li Chen left China Film. , Han Sanping’s secretary confirmed his suspicion.
Sure enough, as soon as I stepped into the main hall, my words were different.
The next day, Li Chen returned to the company.
Today is the selection of the top ten young actors in "Take a Bow, Dad".
Wu Bin handed Li Chen a list of one hundred young actors selected from across the country.
Li Chen glanced at it and saw two familiar names.
One is Dilraba Dilraba on her sister’s list of nominees.
One is Hazikzi on my sister’s list of candidates.
Li Chen searched carefully again and did not find another Guli Nazha who was as famous as Dilraba.
I don’t know what 14-year-old Dilraba and 10-year-old Kazekiz are like.
The photo in the profile is just a half-length photo.
With curiosity, Li Chen met the little girl in Conference Room 1.
Dilraba is wearing a white dress today, with long hair hanging over her shoulders, looking timid.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the familiar face of Li Chen sitting in the middle, and I didn't dare to look any further.
Li Chen nodded secretly in his heart, one thing was certain.
It’s hard for a little girl to give up on her natural beauty, at least she didn’t have plastic surgery.
