Chapter 363 New work: “The Journey of Flower”.

“Nothing was said actually.”

Rene Liu said: “I just explained the script for about ten minutes, and then we chatted for a few minutes, and then Director Chen said he would invest.”

“Isn’t it too simple?”

“I feel so too.”

“Director Chen is not your fan, is he?”

“He actually said that he liked listening to my “Later”. But I think Director Chen was just talking. He is such a professional, it is impossible for him to invest in my film just because he likes my “Later”.”

“That’s true.”

Chatted with Rene Liu.

The two didn’t get much information.

After a while.

The staff of China Film Group notified Yi Xiaoxing to enter the office.

This Yi Xiaoxing.

He is the director of the recent web drama “Never Expected That”.

He played the role of Tang Monk in “Never Expected”.

When he saw Yi Xiaoxing coming in, Chen Cheng smiled and greeted Yi Xiaoxing: “I finally meet you, Mr. Yi, a quiet and handsome man.”

Yes.

A quiet handsome man… This is the line spoken by Yi Xiaoxing when he plays Tang Monk.

As soon as this line came out.

It spread across the country in an instant.

Yi Xiaoxing didn’t expect that Chen Cheng had read his “Never Expected”, and he was a little excited for a moment.

In fact, a few days ago.

China Film Group informed him that his feature film version of “Never Expected” did not pass China Film Group’s investment plan.

As for the reason.

Yi Xiaoxing also knows.

He was filming a web drama.

Although it has a certain degree of popularity.

But online dramas have never been recognized by the industry.

Not only is it not recognized.

Others are despised.

Also because online dramas are free.

So many people think.

If there is a charge.

No one watches these web dramas.

Yi Xiaoxing didn’t know how to refute others.

He didn’t have much confidence to begin with.

Besides, he didn’t graduate from a professional school.

He started working on web dramas halfway through his career.

He did know.

If his online dramas were charged, there wouldn’t be many people watching them.

However, he believes that online dramas are a trend.

Although the charges may affect a large part of the population.

Being free to watch has its value.

Just like a TV show.

Many TV shows are actually free to watch.

If there is a charge.

Not many people watched it either.

But where can he go to seek justice?

Who would listen to his reasoning?
At present, he is the one who needs money from various investors, rather than the investors needing him.

He is begging others for help.

It’s not that others asked him to do so.

not to mention.

It wasn’t that China Film rejected him.

They also rejected other offers such as Wanda, Guangxian, Huayi, etc.

Unexpectedly.

A few days later, China Film rejected this.

China Film called again.

They said they wanted to watch it from China Film Academy.

With hope in mind, Yi Xiaoxing once again came to China Film with the information.

“Director Chen, I’m sorry to have made you laugh. I never expected that what I filmed was just a comedy to entertain everyone. As for anything deeper, there is actually nothing.”

Facing such a super boss, Yi Xiaoxing seemed unsure.

However, Chen Cheng really likes this kind of funny web drama.

Looking at Yi Xiaoxing, Chen Cheng said, “I think ‘Never Expected’ is well made. It is even a good IP. There is still some value in adapting it into a big movie. As for what you said about not having anything deeper, in fact, more than 90% of the movies on the market do not have much deeper content. If it can be entertaining, such a work can be considered a success.”

Just like some urban comedy.

Like the Charlotte Troubles filmed by Chen Cheng before?

Excuse me.

What’s so deep about him?
Not really.

He just does it for fun.

“Thank you, Director Chen.”

“You’re welcome. I’ve seen your film, Never Expected. Although the company rejected you before, after a meeting a few days ago and careful consideration, we decided to invest in your film. But, as you know, web series are just getting started. Although it’s possible to adapt it into a big movie, the effect still depends on the market. Therefore, our investment this time will not be too much, only 2000 million.”

“Director Chen, 2000 million is more than enough.”

With a smile, Yi Xiaoxing left the office.

……

After Yi Xiaoxing is the well-known writer Han Han.

Although Han Han is a well-known writer.

Logically speaking, there is no shortage of investors.

However, the investment Han Han requested is a bit high.

In addition, the IP effects of some writers have not been good in recent years.

Such as the works of Guo Xiaosi.

Han Han and Guo Xiaosi can be said to be representatives of the young generation of writers in China.

They were all very successful in writing books.

And after they succeed.

The two of them had similar gazes, and finally both turned to the movie.

Guo Xiaosi wants to make his work into a movie.

Han Han also wants to make a movie out of the novel he wrote.

Or even if it’s not his novel, he can be the screenwriter.

They think that with their writing skills, they can also be adapted into movies.

But a pity.

Guo Xiaosi, who tried the waters in the early stages, was so overwhelmed by Chen Cheng’s film that he didn’t even make a splash.

Not only did he not get up.

On the contrary, when Guo Xiaosi competed with Chen Cheng on the same stage last time, a group of media exposed Guo Xiaosi’s past.

Guo Xiaosi had no choice but to make a formal apology.

After this incident.

Guo Xiaosi was seriously injured.

A number of investors were concerned about Han Han and also thought of Guo Xiaosi’s situation, so they were reluctant to invest.

of course.

It’s not just Guo Xiaosi.

Han Han has also encountered troubles.

After the Guo Xiaosi incident.

Han Han was also exposed by Fang Zhouzi for his fake works, who said that his works were ghostwritten.

Although Fang Zhouzi did not produce any concrete evidence.

But after this incident, Han Han’s popularity, like Guo Xiaosi, also suffered a huge decline.

At the same time, this also dealt a big blow to Han Han.

All of a sudden.

The once sharp-minded and outspoken Han Han disappeared, and became a somewhat taciturn thinker.

Enter the office.

Han Han didn’t say much.

He brought a script called “See You Tomorrow” to Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng read the script carefully.

The script tells the story of three childhood friends growing up together.

Chen Cheng had also watched this movie in his previous life.

how to say.

To say it doesn’t look good is not true.

Say it looks good.

I don’t really know what this movie is about.

However, some people have a very strong personal style.

Just like Han Han.

Although Han Han is no longer the young man full of vigor and vitality.

He has become much quieter now.

But his style is still very strong.

After seeing his work, you will know that it is Han Han’s.

This is enough.

The book “See You Tomorrow” has a very obvious Korean style.

This style still has some appeal to many young people.

Needless to say.

Chen Cheng invested in Han Han’s “See You Tomorrow”.

“Ok, China Film Group has invested in this script.”

Han Han was stunned.

He looked up at Chen Cheng.

To know.

From the time Han Han came in until now.

The two of them only exchanged three sentences.

But with just three sentences, Chen Cheng rejected his proposal.

……

The China Film Corporation’s side of things has been dealt with.

Chen Cheng went back home.

Although Chen Cheng is the vice president of China Film Corporation.

But China Film Group is not owned by Chen Cheng alone. He only has 15 points of shares.

Although I will put some effort into it, it is impossible for me to focus on China Film all the time.

The script team.

The scripts for Han Jianu, Senior Sister Bao, and Dong Qun have been almost completed.

Chen Cheng first read the book written by Dong Qun, which is Wolf Warrior 2.

Overall it’s pretty good.

It still needs some polishing though.

Chen Cheng called Dong Qun over and asked him to pay more attention to international affairs.

Such as the events in some African countries.

Some news about the domestic peacekeeping forces and escort forces… and so on.

Han Jianuo’s script is also out.

I wrote a script about generic drugs.

Correct.

That’s right.

The name of this script is “I Am Not a God of Medicine”.

Chen Cheng gave the script to Han Sanping.

Let Han Sanping give some advice.

When Han Sanping saw it, he called Chen Cheng immediately.

“Chen Cheng, you are awesome. You have come up with another work with such a major theme.”

“Director Han, are you praising me or your daughter?”

“what’s the situation?”

“This is the book your daughter wrote.”

“My darling.”

Han Sanping was a little surprised.

It’s only been a few years.

Following Chen Cheng, Han Sanping almost didn’t recognize his own daughter.

Chen Cheng smiled and said, “How about it, Director Han? You are better than me, right?”

“Yes, yes, you taught me well. I have to thank you very much. Let’s have a drink together sometime.”

“Okay, it’ll take some time. I’ll finish this first.”

“Wait for your call.”

“Okay.”

Chen Cheng nodded: “By the way, Director Han, do you want to give me some advice?”

“I’m an old man who has retired to the second line and will soon retire. What advice can I give?”

“Stop it. China Film Group will report important events to you from time to time.”

“This is because they respect me. When I retire, do you think I will still report to you?”

Say so.

However, Han Sanping still said: “I think the subject matter is very well chosen. Such a subject matter is closely related to us ordinary people. If it is released, it will definitely cause a great response. At the same time, such a response can also promote the development of medical and health care in our country. Chen Cheng, your vision is getting higher and higher.”

“What’s the big deal? I’m just a filmmaker. I’m still worried that this kind of film might not pass the censorship.”

“Tsk, who are you now? Others may not pass the review, but you will definitely have no problem.”

“Hahaha, Director Han, how about you help me run some errands.”

“I knew you had bad intentions. Well, since I have nothing to do now, I will help you run errands.”

“Thank you.”

Chen Cheng expressed his gratitude.

Review this one.

Although Chen Cheng knew that there shouldn’t be too many problems.

And with my current status.

Plus, he is also the vice president of China Film Corporation.

Everyone above is paying attention.

Some of the films he made.

As long as the subject matter is not particularly sensitive, there will generally be no problem.

But it’s no problem, we have to send someone to follow up on this kind of thing.

Han Sanping is an expert in this industry.

Chen Cheng also decided.

When Han Sanping retired, he invited Han Sanping to his company to serve as the chief art consultant.

There is such a general consultant

Chen Cheng can save countless time and energy in administration.

……

Over there, Senior Sister Bao.

The script isn’t completely finished yet, but it’s more than halfway done.

Chen Cheng said let’s take a look first.

But Sister Bao said no.

The script must be completed before giving it to Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng was not in a hurry either.

He is now filming at a slower pace than usual.

Not to mention three films a year.

Even if it’s just three years or one year, Chen Cheng has plenty of time.

However, Chen Cheng slowed down the pace of filming.

the other side.

People in the industry who are looking for Chen Cheng come from time to time.

Such as Chen Sicheng.

Although Chen Sicheng started out as an actor.

But after he directed and starred in a movie “Beijing Love Story”, he decided to move towards the direction of director.

But he is not planning to make a TV series now.

But preparing to make a movie.

For the time being, the outside world has some doubts about Chen Sicheng’s abilities.

After all, TV series and movies are not the same thing.

There are many big guys who are very good at making TV dramas.

But when it comes to movies, it’s also a flop.

However, Chen Sicheng knew Chen Cheng.

and so.

He found Chen Cheng with the script.

The name of the script is “Detective Tangren Street”.

Ok.

One look at the name.

Chen Cheng surrendered.

Except Chen Sicheng.

Happy Twist also has a new script.

The Happy Twist team is very familiar with Chen Cheng.

With such an awesome producer, Happy Twist naturally doesn’t need to look for anyone else.

The script brought by Happy Twist this time is called “The Richest Man in Xihong City”.

It was also after seeing this name that Chen Cheng decided to invest.

even.

Don’t say the name.

Chen Cheng is ready to invest in any film produced by Happy Twist.

Although Chen Cheng knew.

Happy Twist later made several films that didn’t make much money.

of course.

Chen Cheng’s investment will not give him full control.

Chen Cheng also allowed Happy Twist to hold a certain proportion of shares.

Everyone in Happy Twist is a talent.

Whether it is the director or some actors like Shen Teng.

Only everyone makes money.

Then.

Only then can we maintain cooperation.

……

The TV series.

Chen Cheng didn’t let it go either.

Or.

Chen Cheng never let it go.

Although Chen Cheng made many movies.

But all along.

He has always been following TV series.

The reason is also very simple.

Chen Cheng has always believed that.

Not everyone goes to the cinema.

Not everyone can afford to go to the cinema.

Even though the box office at cinemas is very low now.

But that doesn’t mean everyone looks up to it.

It doesn’t mean that everyone has the opportunity or it is convenient to go.

Chen Cheng has always liked this type of program that can be watched for free by everyone in the country.

but.

Chen Cheng would not always make those high-end films such as “In the Name of People”.

TV series are the same as movies.

Chen Cheng has always believed that.

He can be both lofty and down-to-earth.

It can even be tacky.

even.

Chen Cheng also believes.

Being down-to-earth is more popular among the people.

Some high-end TV dramas need to have it.

Some down-to-earth TV dramas that are just for entertainment are also spiritual food for countless viewers.

to this end.

However, Chen Cheng turned his attention to an online article.

This web article.

It’s called “The Journey of Flower”.
