The movie is "Zodiac".

A commercial film with a plot not worth mentioning.

The screenwriter and tentative director are both brother Cheng. It is similar to the film "The Myth", it is also produced by Yinghuang, and it is also a collaboration with director Tang Jili.

Frankly speaking, it is difficult to write an interesting plot in a commercial movie. The selling points of this type of movie are sharp editing, hearty scenes, and a dense rhythm that leaves no gaps.

The story itself is relatively weak.

So what is the quality of Big Brother Cheng’s story?

If it were ten or twenty years ago, it would have been world-class; but now, it can only be called the first- or second-class in Asia, and it is still deteriorating rapidly. It is no longer able to grasp the direction of the market.

.

Big Brother Cheng's box office appeal is quite good, and people all over the world buy into his book.

After "The King of Kung Fu" hit the market in 2008, the market thought that Big Brother had become a thing of the past. This year, Big Brother became an absolutely terrible movie, "Kung Fu Dream" was released, telling the story of Heiwa learning kung fu and beating up East Asian writers. Although this kind of movie

It failed miserably in mainland China, but it actually did well at the box office in the beautiful country.

The producers, Columbia Pictures and China Film Group, were overjoyed and "achieved a surprising first-week box office."

Yang Harvest said: "Fang Yi, for this film we are looking for a star with real appeal in Asia, who can be worthy of Jackie. We originally looked in South Korea and Japan, but now..." His eyes fell on Fang Yi.

, "You are the most suitable."

The eldest brother couldn't help but nodded, "I won't treat you badly in terms of salary. I can afford it at 30 to 40 million, it's not a big deal. Now it's up to you to see if you have a schedule."

Fang Yi: "When will it be shot?"

The eldest brother Cheng grinned: "It will probably be after July or August next year. We have many places to shoot, so we have to prepare very early in advance."

Fang Yi thought about the arrangements for next year in his mind. He has a movie of his own to shoot first, and a series of endorsements tied to him also require him to travel around the world, so he is very tight on time.

"There may not be a schedule."

Yang harvest and his eldest brother looked at each other, thinking that he was making a counteroffer. Yang harvest said, "If you are not satisfied with the remuneration, we can discuss it again...Jackie often said that the amount of remuneration depends on what you can contribute.

How much, as long as you are really useful, even 100 million is not something you can't afford - we are not reluctant to share, do you know how much Jackie's salary is?"

Fang Yi waited for his answer.

He made a circle with his finger, "Zero. Jackie's salary is 0. Like you in the movie "Love Letter", he gets paid completely based on box office performance."

The eldest brother Cheng swallowed impatiently, "Do you want a share? I can share it with you. But you can't get paid in advance. You can only choose one of the two."

Fang Yi thinks this project should be done or not. "Love Letter" estimates that the share in his hands is close to 200 million, and it may rise further. Now 40 million can no longer arouse his interest.

In addition, the eldest brother Cheng has a greater desire for control, to what extent?

He has to give instructions when the family class goes to the toilet, whether the cleaning is done properly, and which board is not glued properly. The eldest brother, Cheng, can now control his crotch and vent his energy in other places.

Fang Yi is Shujuan outside and Jian is inside. He may have fallen out with his eldest brother Cheng, and everyone will be unhappy.

However, the experienced Yang Shuangsheng gave him a heart-warming explanation, ""Zodiac" will be filmed next year and released the year after that. We estimate that the filming time will be short, four or five months, and the remaining time will be used for special effects.

"

He also said, "Even in these four or five months, if you have something to do, you can take time off to do your work - we in Hong Kong don't pay attention to whether to play or not, because everyone is playing. In the morning on this crew, in the afternoon

On another set."

"Fang Yi," Yang Shoucheng said in a deep voice, "How old are you in 12 years? Is it time to transform? Your first transformation film has Jackie as your guarantee. Isn't it better than doing it yourself? "Twelve Zodiac Signs"

"It is expected to be the first domestic film to be released in IMAX3D and 3D theaters. It will require a lot of special effects, and even the sound will be full Dolby Video - don't you want to see what the effects are?"

The eldest brother Cheng observed Fang Yi's expression and quickly echoed, "Yes, that's right. These techniques are all used for the first time. Fang Yi, when you become a director and make blockbusters in the future, you can learn the basics from us first."

.Lest one day in the future... you start researching again, then every penny will be yours, and you will use it for unnecessary trial and error."

By this time, Fang Yi was already excited.

But he wanted to make sure of one thing, "What should I do if I have different opinions on the set? I'm not saying I want to challenge any one, but I may have different ideas on some specific clips."

Of course the eldest brother Cheng was unwilling to give in, "Let me prevail."

What a basin of cold water.

Where in the world can such good things happen? Use other people’s money to gain experience.

Yang Shoancheng watched Fang Yi become indifferent again, knowing that something bad was going on. He tried his best to smooth things over between Fang Yi and his eldest brother Cheng, saying, "We can talk about anything."

It's a pity that the subsequent chat became boring. In the movie Big Brother Cheng, the core character is Big Brother Cheng. If he can't turn around in his heart, it will be useless no matter who Fang Yi talks to.

The few people maintained a superficial friendship and said goodbye.

The next day was Fang Yi's last day in Hong Kong. He gave a speech at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in the morning, titled "We Are All the Same".

This speech was requested by the above. "The story that happened in the northernmost big city on the mainland, but achieved good results in the southernmost big city, shows that we all have a heart of fist, and a deep love is rooted in our chests.

That is the same flowing red blood..."

I will show up at my fan meeting in the afternoon and sign autographs.

I re-read the script of my speech in the morning.

The scene was surprisingly good, and it almost made Fang Yi wonder whether his fans would still support him without thinking because he was now promoting geocentric theory.

Yang Shoucheng eased the relationship, and also persuaded him to change his mind. He organized the company's artist twins to take Fang Yi to a nightclub in Hong Kong. The eldest brother Cheng's sons also came, and these "young people" were much older than Fang Yi.

age.

Here, Fang Yi met the young model Yang Ying who had talked to him last time.

Yang Ying's status in Yinghuang seems to be quite miserable. She introduced herself by saying "I know Director Fang Yi" and got Fang Yi's nod, so she allowed everyone to take her to play with her.

She thanked Fang Yi, "Thank you for remembering me."

Fang Yi said, "Have you signed with Yinghuang?"

"Yes. Yinghuang is the dream company for Hong Kong girls to become stars."

Fang Yi thought of Liu Mi, whom he had met before, and said with emotion, "Have you ever thought that the things you strive for are not as valuable as you think?"

Yang Ying said with a smile: "I only signed it for two years."

Prince Fang and the twins were in a dilemma about their father's fate, and they were watching what Fang Yi would say from the beginning.

He sent these truthfully to Father Long and Godfather Yang.

——The eldest brother Cheng looked like he suddenly realized: "I heard that Fang Yi also rejected "The Grandmaster". Even if the King of Sunglasses waited for him, he didn't reply a message. Only the King of Sunglasses has always tormented others. This is the first time someone has tormented Sunglasses.

king."

He tentatively asked, "Does Fang Yi not like our Hong Kong community very much? He will reject anyone who comes."

Yang Shoucheng didn't want to believe it, "It shouldn't be that simple. He is a director, and he considers things from the director's point of view. He must have something to say about the films he participates in, which is understandable."

The eldest brother Cheng felt a little aggrieved, "I'm not angry enough yet."

Yang Shoucheng advised him: "The larger the production scale of "Zodiac" is, the more people who can handle the box office will need to participate. You two are the best match I want. Jackie, why don't you give in and discuss it?"

You haven't proven yourself in Asia for a long time. You will really be out of date if you don't have any more popular movies."

Yang harvested carefully prepared two newspapers. They were about Big Brother Cheng. In 1985, "Police Story" became very popular in Japan. Local viewers flooded the TV station with calls, asking them to invite Big Brother Cheng to the show and to see Big Brother Cheng in real life.

.

The other is the news that because Fang Yi was so popular, he went to Japan this time and was officially designated as the leader of the Chinese Legion.
