The next morning, Zhang Hehuan received a call from Xue Chunhua, which surprised him a little. After all, in the past, he and Xue Chunhua contacted him through Qiao Shengtian, and it was the first time Xue Chunhua found him directly.

Xue Chunhua learned through the newspaper that Zhang Hehuan was in the capital. He took the initiative to invite Zhang Hehuan to meet in the company in the morning, and did not mention any specific matters on the phone.

It is hard to refuse Zhang Hehuan’s request to him.

Xue Chunhua's company is located in a landmark building in Chaoyang District. He rarely comes to work. He originally planned to ask the driver to pick up Zhang Hehuan, but Zhang Hehuan refused, so it would be convenient for him to take a taxi by himself.

He arrived at the place on time and followed the beautiful assistant who had been waiting for him in the hall to Xue Chunhua's office.

This office is about 200 square meters. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the south side, you can see the central garden in the office area. It can be said that this is the best location for the entire building, and the interior decoration is also extremely luxurious.

Xue Chunhua took the initiative to greet him. From his actions, he could see his attitude towards Zhang Hehuan becoming more and more important.

Zhang Hehuan shook hands with him: "Hello Mr. Xue."

Xue Chunhua smiled and said, "None of them are outsiders, they are called Brother Hua."

Zhang Hehuan called Brother Hua again, Xue Chunhua asked him to sit down at the reception area, and the beautiful assistant brought two cups of coffee.

Xue Chunhua said: "If I come to the capital, I will not say hello. If I hadn't seen you signing in the newspaper, I wouldn't have known that you were here."

Zhang Hehuan said: "You are so busy at work, why do I have the nerve to disturb you?"

"That's just that I'm not treating me as a friend."

Zhang Hehuan thought that friends are mutual, and you didn’t treat me as a friend. In fact, those who can be regarded as friends by Xue Chunhua are basically of value for use. Zhang Hehuan is not disgusted with Xue Chunhua. After all, the level of others is there, and the circle determines the partner they are dating.

"Brother Hua just tells me if you have anything to do." Zhang Hehuan didn't say anything like being unable to stand up. It was equivalent to self-deprecating. He was not as good as Xue Chunhua in terms of background, but in terms of ability, he did not think he was worse than Xue Chunhua. This sentence showed his attitude. Although I am not a friend to you, I will definitely help you if I can do it. After all, there is Qiao Shengtian's relationship.

Xue Chunhua expressed satisfaction with Zhang Hehuan's attitude and smiled and said, "Your signing yesterday will be very successful."

Zhang Hehuan said modestly: "It is mainly the publisher who helps create momentum. I don't have so many fans."

Xue Chunhua said: "Don't be humble. I also like your book "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Zhang Hehuan suddenly became alert. He wanted to attack the copyright of his book, right? It’s hard to say that Xue Chunhua has always wanted to praise Ling Tiantian. Ling Tiantian has also participated in several major productions, but he has never made too many splashes.

Fortunately, Xue Chunhua's topic did not continue: "I heard from Shengtian that you went to Seoul to make a movie before?"

Zhang Hehuan nodded and said, "Tian Ge also has an investment in our company's first movie."

Xue Chunhua said: "If you have an investment, you won't call me."

Zhang Hehuan knew that he was just talking about it. He would not have any interest in the investment of hundreds of millions of dollars with Xue Chunhua's personality.

Zhang Hehuan laughed and said, "The cost is relatively low, and it is a literary film. Although the risk is not great, there is no money to make."

Xue Chunhua nodded and said, "Although I don't know much about this, any investment is similar. Investing is to pursue profits, to be stable and accurate. If you don't see it accurately, you would rather not invest. If you don't make much money, you will lose money because you don't calculate the time cost."

Zhang Hehuan said: "Listen to you is better than reading for ten years. I should talk to Brother Hua more and learn a lot."

Xue Chunhua felt very comfortable when he heard this, and took a sip of coffee and said, "You are still young, you will understand if you experience more things."

Zhang Hehuan wanted to laugh secretly, I am not younger than you.

Xue Chunhua said: "Actually, your talent is capital. Recently, several movie scripts have been sent to me. The starring actors are all big names. I want me to participate in the investment. I want to hear your opinions."

Zhang Hehuan had heard Ling Tiantian reveal some of it before. Both of them were cooperating with kung fu superstars. Brother Long had a movie called "Police Story 2013" and the Universe Dan had a movie called "Special Identity". To be honest, these two movies were not very good. Ling Tiantian repeatedly played the role of the vase in it.

Xue Chunhua meant that she wanted to choose one of the two movies and asked Zhang Hehuan which one should she choose.

Zhang Hehuan said: "These two movies have a certain effect on increasing popularity, but in terms of investment returns, I am not optimistic."

Xue Chunhua said: "What do you mean is that movies don't make money?"

Gu/span> Zhang Hehuan said: "Although Brother Long is an international superstar, his box office in the mainland is gradually declining, and his influence is not as good as before. As for the Universe Pill, his real box office ability is not very good. Kung Fu movies have been in a weak position in recent years. No one has praised the capital in the Hong Kong circle, so he has promoted him. In fact, he is not young anymore."

Xue Chunhua nodded. He agreed with this point, but Ling Tiantian wanted to take the route of a Kung Fu actress. These two people are the most influential in the current Kung Fu movies.

Since he asked him for advice, Zhang Hehuan said a few more words: "Brother Hua, I personally think that Ling Tiantian's style is not suitable for the route of beating girls. Now the overall environment is here, and kung fu films are gradually declining. The audience prefers relaxed and humorous movies. The main reason is that everyone has a lot of pressure in work and life, and most of them just want to have fun watching movies."

Xue Chunhua said: "Don't Brother Long just shoots comedy kung fu movies?"

Zhang Hehuan thought to himself that you really don’t understand: “Brother Long did get up early and shoot popcorn and he was so funny martial arts, but as he got older, he couldn’t beat him anymore and started to play deeply. Once he wanted to pursue artistic quality, the viewing quality would inevitably decrease. The same problem also occurred to Stephen Chow. This "Police Story 2013" is not only not a comedy, but also a bit heart-wrenching."

Zhang Hehuan did not comment on another special identity. The movie started to be hit as soon as it started filming, which was even more messy and the subsequent box office was not very prosperous.

Xue Chunhua said: "I heard Director Xu say that there are trilogies in "A Chinese Ghost Story"?"

Zhang Hehuan remembered that Ling Tiantian played the role of the second female Xiaodie in the first part. Does Xue Chunhua plan to straighten her in the second part? Zhang Hehuan had a sudden inspiration and could give him a favor in the second part.

"Brother Hua, I have written all the books."

Xue Chunhua said: "I have time to send me one."

Zhang Hehuan realized that Xue Chunhua was really interested in "A Chinese Ghost Story". Xue Chunhua kept him for lunch. Zhang Hehuan said that something was wrong. Xue Chunhua was a cunning person and could not get too close to him.

After leaving, Zhang Hehuan contacted Xu Ke first. Xu Ke was in the capital and told Zhang Hehuan that "A Chinese Ghost Story" was a bit troublesome to be released in China due to the theme issues, so he entrusted Xue Chunhua. Xue Chunhua had already proposed conditions to him that when filming the second part of "A Chinese Ghost Story", the heroine would be replaced by Ling Tiantian.

Xu Ke did not agree and told him that he had no plans to film the second part yet, and that everything depends on the box office of the first part.

In fact, the heroine Xu Ke really likes is An Ran. Now that the movie has been finished, he can't mention this matter again.

When Zhang Hehuan heard that he was in the capital, he proposed to meet him. Xu Ke told him his current address and asked him to come over directly and have dinner together nearby at noon.

Zhang Hehuan arrived at the place and Xu Ke was still working. He wanted to cut out "A Chinese Ghost Story" and strive to release it during the National Day holiday.

Zhang Hehuan waited for him for half an hour before finishing work. During this half hour, Zhang Hehuan also watched some rough clips. Wen Yongshi looked quite amazing in this movie, but because the original version of the jade was ahead, it still tasted a little worse than that.

After Xu Ke finished work, he lit a cigar: "Hehuanzi, how do you feel?"

Zhang Hehuan said: "Not bad!"

Xu Ke said: "The review system in the mainland is too strict. In order to pass the review, I had to cut off many satisfactory shots. If you want to see the original flavor of this movie, you have to watch the Hong Kong version."

Zhang Hehuan said: "It is only through the real skill that you can make a temple in a snail shell. It must not only comply with the review system, but also make the movie well."

Xu Ke laughed and said, "You have said it to the point."

He asked his assistant to prepare the car, and lunch was settled at a nearby Hui restaurant.

During the meal, he asked about Zhang Hehuan's shooting situation in Seoul. Zhang Hehuan told him that it was very smooth and that the movie was ready to be held next year's Valentine's Day.

Xu Ke said: "The competition during Valentine's Day is fierce, that is, making quick money to make concepts. Usually, the popularity of the Spring Festival movies is not over yet, and a large part of the box office will definitely be diverted. On Valentine's Day, there will be romance films with Valentine's Day concepts. Schedule is a problem. The cake is so big, there are so many movies of the same type, and the audience has too many choices. It mainly depends on who has more publicity."

Zhang Hehuan said: "The cost of the movie is relatively low, and I don't have much pressure on the box office."

Xu Ke said: "It's shameful to say that although I have the name of the artistic director, I haven't participated in this movie yet. I've been too busy recently, otherwise I would have to take time to explore the shift."

Zhang Hehuan accompanied him to drink a glass of wine. Xu Ke's main focus is on the movie "Taking Tiger Mountain in Strategy". According to his initial idea, filming will start within the year, but the difficulty of this movie is also in the later stage. If you hire a special effects team in Hollywood, the cost will definitely increase a lot. The movie has been preparing for two years, but it is still impossible to control the investment cost within a reasonable range.

Zhang Hehuan heard that "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy" has no hope of starting the filming this year, and he also felt that the process of this matter was a bit too slow.

Xu Ke said: "If everything goes well, "A Chinese Ghost Story" can enter the National Day holiday, I hope this film can make a difference at the box office."
