........

New Year's Eve.

Happy reunion and good luck.

Starting from the afternoon, Fang Ziheng, Zeng Li, Song Yi, Fang Zhongxin, and Fang Rou gathered in the duplex building and were very busy.

The five people divide the work, the man does the cleaning, and the woman prepares the dinner.

In the restaurant, Zeng Li wore an apron and rolled up his sleeves to make noodles skillfully. Song Yi and Fang Rou were washing vegetables in the kitchen.

Fang Ziheng and Fang Zhongxin took buckets and towels, mopped the floor and cleaned the windows, each responsible for one floor.

The house is actually quite clean, and there is no need for special cleaning, but during the Chinese New Year, there is always a sense of ritual.

Second floor.

Fang Ziheng held the wet mop back and forth and quickly mopped the floor corridors of the three rooms clean.

As for the window glass, it looks clean, so forget it.

With this thought in his mind, Fang Ziheng came to the stairs and took a look at the living room. He saw the three women chatting and laughing, and then went into the study with a puff of smoke.

There are three hot searches on the Internet today.

Number one on the list is naturally this year’s Spring Festival Gala.

Since 2012, the quality of future galas has declined year by year.

Especially this year, Ha Wen, the wife of the famous host Li Yong, came on stage as the general director of the Spring Festival Gala and made drastic improvements.

Originally, the people were still happy and full of expectations, thinking that the Spring Festival Gala should be changed and revitalized.

The result was good, as soon as Director Ha took the stage, he took advantage of Lao Zhao and replaced the mainstay of the Spring Festival Gala for more than ten years, depriving the people of the most joyful time of the Spring Festival Gala every year.

An insider revealed that Ha Min and Lao Zhao had many arguments during this year's rehearsals. The two had different perspectives on the program and creative concepts, and in the end neither could convince the other.

Lao Zhao got so angry that he simply took his bag and returned to the Northeast without waiting for him.

A few days ago, both parties came out to refute the rumors. Lao Zhao himself said that he was old and in poor health, so he took the initiative not to attend the Spring Festival Gala.

But one thing is certain, Ha Wen will serve as the general director of the Spring Festival Gala this year and next, and Zhao has not appeared on the Spring Festival Gala stage for two consecutive years.

And in the first half of 2013, he made a public statement and officially announced his withdrawal from the field of sketches, which is equivalent to not attending the Spring Festival Gala from now on.

Something unexpected happened during the Spring Festival Gala, and Lao Zhao was not here, and countless people in China were filled with regret.

However, only Fang Ziheng knew that although Lao Zhao did not attend the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, he took his apprentice to participate in the Liaodong Spring Festival Gala for several years.

It can be seen that talking about poor health is untenable.

The second most popular search was "Xiu Chun Dao", the most popular martial arts movie released during the Spring Festival in 2012.

Although the media did not praise "Spring Knife" too much, they also compared it to the summer release "Manslaughter 1" and praised "Spring Knife" as the only Spring Festival movie that can compete with Hollywood blockbusters.

the reason is simple.

In three days' time, on January 25, "Mission: Impossible 4" will be released across China and in mainland China.

The two movies are only eight days apart. Not to mention fighting to the death, there will definitely be competition for the number of films scheduled.

Other domestic movies are so hard to describe and can't be counted on.

Let's take the "Eight Star Announcement" released early this morning. It is an adaptation of the 1988 comedy film of the same name by Fa Ge and Hong Gu. It also stars Principal Gu, Zhen Zhuan and Huang Baiming. It can be considered a popular movie during the Chinese New Year.

?

However, there are no eggs.

Judging from some attendance data released by several major domestic theater chains at noon today, the box office of "Eight Stars" on the first day could not even exceed 10 million, and it is a complete money-making bad movie.

Other movies are even worse. With the exception of "Reverse War", the remaining dozen or so domestic movies will be withdrawn after two weeks of release at most.

If the theater chain can't make any money, it will just release new movies.

The third hot search is also related to Hengyu Media. Good news came from North America. "Year of Dreams" was nominated for this year's Oscar.

Nominated for two awards in total, Best Foreign Language Film and Best Cinematography!

All major media have reported on this shortlisting. Congratulations and best wishes to Lao Mouzi for fulfilling his long-cherished wish and winning at least one of the awards.

Lao Mouzi has been shortlisted for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film several times, but has never won the award, and it has almost become his obsession.

In the morning, Fang Ziheng received a call from North America. On the phone, Lao Mouzi was only slightly happy, and he had the bearing of a great director.

There's nothing I can do about it, it's all useless until I win the prize.

After competing for Oscars for many years, everything has come to nothing. Lao Mouzi also wants to save face. He cannot be like a star artist and regard being nominated as an award. He wants everyone in the world to know about it.

Fang Ziheng comforted Lao Mouzi, saying that if it doesn't work once, just do it twice, and if it doesn't work twice, do it three times. It doesn't matter. He and Hengyu Media will support it to the end.

[By the way, the best app for reading aloud and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, install the latest version. 】

Later, he called Deng Wendi and asked 20th Century Fox to help with the operation.

Deng Wendi agreed wholeheartedly. She chatted with Andy several times and was very optimistic about the three low-cost scripts Andy brought over, and she was ready to serve as the producer herself.

........

Browsed the news reports for a while.

Fang Ziheng lit a cigarette, opened the encrypted folder with his hand, and entered a long list of passwords.

On the homepage of the folder, a single file contains the lists and scripts of more than a dozen movies and TV series.

These books are all projects to be developed by Hengyu this year.

Four of the projects started preparations two months ago and will start shooting after the Spring Festival.

This year he is still directing a movie, "The Great Wall" in collaboration with Wanda Film and Television, which is expected to start filming in early March.

The preliminary preparations are almost complete, including site selection, scenery, shooting equipment, and troop assistance.

The only thing left is that the costumes of the movie have not been completed yet, and the prop company under Hengyu is currently working overtime on production.

The movie "The Great Wall" is the first truly Chinese co-production blockbuster, with a total investment of US$150 million.

Unlike "The King of Kung Fu", since it is a story that takes place in China's Tang Dynasty, everything in the film will be dominated by Chinese people.

There are a total of five investors in the film, including Wanda Film and Television, Hengyu Media, China Film Group, Legendary Pictures of North America, and 20th Century Fox.

Deng Wendi finally took action. Originally, Wanda was planning to cooperate with Universal Pictures and invite the giant to jointly distribute the overseas share of "The Great Wall" with Legendary Pictures, but she abruptly stopped it.

At the same time, Fang Ziheng also kicked out the old LeTV executive and notified China Film Director Han in advance.

Director Han directly communicated with Wanda Wang on the phone, and the charter was finalized in a few words.

Of course there are other reasons why Lao Wang is so easy to talk to.

Director Han was valued by the superiors and was designated as the next helmsman of China Film.

In other words, in the Chinese film and television industry in the next five years, Han Dong will still be the big brother.

At this point, the "Great Wall" project has been drafted and the script has successfully passed review. We are just waiting for the east wind to start filming.

In addition to the big project "The Great Wall", Hengyu also has three film projects with an investment of over 100 million.

"The Four Famous Catchers 2"

"PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds 1" (movie version)

"National Security 1" (movie version)

Among the three movies with an investment of over 100 million, "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds 1" has been decided to be directed by Wu Jing, while Fang Ziheng is still considering the other two.

He originally preferred to let Lao Mouzi and Hao Yi direct "Famous Catchers 2", but both of them had new ideas and prepared a new script.

It still needs to be considered who will direct the film in the end, but if that doesn't work out, then Xu Ke and Wu Ershan will be chosen. They are both in ancient costume martial arts movies, and both of them can do the job.

"National Security 1", a film controlled by Hengyu Interactive Entertainment, produced by Baoli, Guangxian, Xingmei, and Hengyu Five Elements Directing Company, will be announced and distributed by Wuzhou Distribution Company.

This project is an introduction for Fang Ziheng to consolidate the interest relationships between these companies, commonly known as dividing the cake.

Anyway, with the support of Baoli Group, as long as the plot and story of this kind of spy movie are exciting and the actors' acting skills are top-notch, there is no need to worry about the audience not buying it.

After reading it for a few times, Fang Ziheng opened the script of "The Great Wall", dragged it to the actors section, and typed on the keyboard to describe the main characters' age, background, personality, methods of action, force value, etc.

The first character (female): Xue Mutian, the second daughter of General Xue Rengui.

Personality: Gentle, pleasant, and silly.

Ahem, you have to cross it out because of this stupidity, otherwise Da Tiantian will never be done with him.

Xue Mutian: Gentle and sweet, handsome and intelligent, he first became famous when he was young. He followed his father to practice martial arts. He is extremely talented and has superb swordsmanship. He has defeated all the second-generation invincible fighters in the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty. He has the reputation of being a hero among women, with both talent and appearance.

That's almost it. If I write a few more advantages, I guess Da Tiantian won't be able to grasp it.

Fang Ziheng stopped the keyboard, dragged the cursor to copy this description to QQ, then found Da Tiantian's avatar and sent it with one click.

Ring bell..

In less than a minute, Da Tiantian called.

"Zi Heng, is this the character I played in "The Great Wall"?"
