"Are you planning to film "The King of Fighters"?" Kang Jianfei looked at Liu Zhenwei with some surprise.
Liu Zhenwei nodded and said: "When I was eating at the food stall last night, I heard a few teenagers talking about "The King of Fighters", so I came up with this idea."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "Do you think I will sell the film rights to "The King of Fighters" to Yingzhijie Company?"
Liu Zhenwei said: "Of course not. In fact, I am already ready to leave Yingzhijie."
Lan Jieying came over with a cup of coffee, put it on the coffee table in front of Liu Zhenwei, and then sat down next to Kang Jianfei. She was wearing a white sweater today, with clear soup noodles and no makeup on her face. She had a homely feel to her.
Make those around you feel relaxed and comfortable.
"Thank you." Liu Zhenwei nodded to Lan Jieying to express his thanks. He asked his old friend for Kang Jianfei's personal phone number, but was informed to come here to meet, and the hostess of the villa turned out to be Lan Jieying.
Although Liu Zhenwei's roles in movies are often unreliable, he is very strict in reality. Kang Jianfei is not worried at all that he will tell the story about Lan Jieying. In other words, Kang Jianfei now has too many lice and is not itchy at all.
Exposed.
"You actually left Ying Zhijie, didn't you do a good job?" Kang Jianfei asked slightly surprised.
"I have a little difference of opinion with Mr. Deng. Once the filming of Wang Jiawei's "Days of Wild" starts, I will officially leave the film." Liu Zhenwei said with some helplessness.
"Would Deng Guangrong be willing to let you go?" Kang Jianfei said and laughed, "Actually, I wanted you to stay at DreamWorks for one year and then serve as the manager of the production department. Who would have thought that you would work for Deng Guangrong after only half a year?
General manager."
Liu Zhenwei said without regret: "DreamWorks is on the right track, and my role as production manager is nothing more than Xiao Gicao. When I was the general manager of Century Pictures, I had a set of ideas for running my own film company.
, I originally wanted to develop Yingzhijie according to my ideas, but unfortunately Mr. Deng can't wait any longer, so I can only withdraw, after all, the company belongs to him."
Kang Jianfei asked: "Do you think he can't hold up the wall with mud?"
"He is a senior in the film industry. I dare not say that about him," Liu Zhenwei said with a smile. "I just think he is too speculative and hesitant when it is time to take action. According to his approach, a top film company
It’s possible to do well, but it’s difficult to make the company bigger.”
Kang Jianfei asked: "So are you going back to DreamWorks to film "The King of Fighters" now?"
Liu Zhenwei said: "It is not a direct adaptation of comics and game content. I just want to learn from the characters and skills of "The King of Fighters" and integrate them into modern urban comedy."
If that was all, then it would be simple. Liu Zhenwei came to say hello and agreed to pay the copyright fee, which was already a great deal of face to Kang Jianfei.
"Which company are you planning to film for?" Kang Jianfei asked.
Liu Zhenwei said: "Jinyun Film Company."
"A new company?" Kang Jianfei asked.
Liu Zhenwei said: "I registered more than two years ago. At that time, my business in the Philippines failed, and I was thinking of returning to Hong Kong to make movies again. But before I could get investment, I was called to DreamWorks to help."
Kang Jianfei had no impression of this company at all. In fact, in another time and space, after Wang Jiawei's "Days of Being Wild" started filming, Liu Zhenwei left Yingzhijie alone and received investment from the First Film Company.
The name has been chosen for several movies in a row. For example, Zhou Xingchi's first movie as the leading actor was produced by Jinyun Film Company.
Although First Cinema, the financial backer of Jinyun Film Company, is a Hong Kong company, its main business is actually in Taiwan. First Cinema is one of the largest theater chains in Taiwan. It was originally registered in Hong Kong for the convenience of filming.
Kang Jianfei still recognized Liu Zhenwei's film business capabilities and said: "Your Jinyun Film Company, why not be affiliated with DreamWorks and change it into a film studio."
"It's okay." Liu Zhenwei nodded and said. His major is industrial design, but when he entered the society, he accidentally entered a financial company. The boss of that financial company was even more unreliable. He actually went to invest in making movies.
, Liu Zhenwei became the company's film planner and screenwriter in a daze, and then became the general manager of the film company.
In the past ten years, Liu Zhenwei has also been prosperous. The film company he is in charge of has produced films that have been ranked in the top ten of Hong Kong's annual box office list for three consecutive years. But then the film company closed down, changed his business and failed, and he had different opinions with Deng Guangrong and was about to leave.
The hero of the film, many encounters have made Liu Zhenwei understand clearly that he no longer wants to talk about ambitions, he just wants to make movies honestly and make money.
Kang Jianfei is a golden thigh. As long as you hold this thigh tightly, you will definitely not be without food in the future. Liu Zhenwei firmly believes this.
DreamWorks used to have several studios under its umbrella. However, after overseas hot money poured into the Hong Kong film industry, Lee Hsiu-hsien and McDonald's studios were disbanded one after another. The two got support from overseas investors and went to start their own companies.
The results of it?
Li Xiuxian's film company was dying, and McDonald's went straight to the bank until the film company closed down, and he didn't have the shame to return to DreamWorks and continue to work.
On the other hand, "The Extralegal Affair" co-written by McDonald and Xiao Ruoyuan not only made the starring actors Andy Lau and Lam Jieying famous, but also became one of the few literary films to sell nearly 20 million box office. Unfortunately, the director of this film is Wu Siyuan, and the production company is
Siyuan Pictures, McDonald only received a screenwriting fee.
On the contrary, Xu Ke, who continued to make films at DreamWorks, did best. Although Xu Ke Film Studio produced a small number of films, each one was a hit at the box office. Although Xu Ke could only get a small part of the box office profit,
But he earns much more money than Li Xiuxian who is his own boss.
After agreeing to return to DreamWorks to set up a studio, Liu Zhenwei said goodbye quite happily, preparing to go home and write the script for a new film.
Lan Jieying picked up the TV remote control, turned up the volume of the program, and poured away the coffee that Liu Zhenwei had drunk, then returned to the living room and said: "Why does this Liu Zhenwei keep changing jobs? He just returned to DreamWorks to open a studio in one sentence."
, do you trust him that much?"
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "As long as they are capable of making money for me, I will trust them. When people go to higher places, it doesn't matter whether they change jobs or not. As long as they don't stab me in the back at critical moments, I will take care of those who leave at any time."
Welcome them back to DreamWorks."
In the past, Kang Jianfei was blocked by the Taiwan authorities, and his agency had a wave of resignations. It was at that time that Cheng Shaoqiu, Alan Tam, and Chen You left. Later, overseas hot money poured into the film industry, and Kang Jianfei's directors began to change jobs frequently again.
, such as Zeng Zhiwei, Li Xiuxian, McDonald and Wu Yusen.
If these people want to come back now, as long as they are still able to make money for Kang Jianfei, Kang Jianfei will never care about the past. For example, Zheng Shaoqiu came back to star in "Big Time".
Of course, if you are a second- or third-rate guy, you can get away as far as you want. If you leave, don’t even think about coming back. If you have no ability and no reputation, why do you want to change jobs like others?
Of course, Gao Zhisen is an exception here, because he changed jobs at the wrong time and with the wrong person. At that time, Kang Jianfei and Princess Jin had a falling out, and DreamWorks was at its most difficult time. Gao Zhisen not only chose to leave at this time, but also joined the enemy
The embrace of the company's new art city.
In Kang Jianfei's view, this was absolutely a naked betrayal. Even if Gao Zhisen could help him make more money, Kang Jianfei would never tolerate a traitor.
In fact, there is no difference between Gao Zhisen and other people's job hopping. It is just Kang Jianfei's subjective consciousness that is at play.
"You are open-minded," Lan Jieying's mind was racing and she suddenly asked, "What should we eat for dinner?"
Kang Jianfei asked: "At home or out to eat?"
Lan Jieying said: "Just stay at home, I've learned a few dishes recently."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "Then whatever you can do, I will eat."
Lan Jieying rolled up her sleeves and said, "Let me show you my hand."
Soon there was a clanging sound in the kitchen. Kang Jianfei watched TV for a while and ran to the kitchen to help. However, he was soon kicked out by Lan Jieying because after washing a few tomatoes, this guy hugged Lan Jieying from behind.
Lan Jieying started to move her hands and feet, and her face turned red from being kissed and caressed by her, so she could only drive away the troublemakers.
Kang Jianfei left the kitchen with a smile. He was very satisfied with Lan Jieying's change. At least Lan Jieying is not so nervous now, and it can be said that she has become much more mature. Although she still loses her temper occasionally, she doesn't seem to be angry.
In the past, I didn't care about the other person's face at all.
If Lan Jieying encounters something like the Academy Awards banquet again at this moment, she will only push Cheng Long away to express her disgust and rejection, instead of being stupid enough to throw a glass of red wine in the other person's face, which will not only make everyone unable to get down the stairs,
Moreover, it made it difficult for Wu Siyuan, who was ready to praise her, to the point of ruining his own future.
After the drama about three women competing for a husband was released last year, Kang Jianfei was worried that Lan Jieying would also get mad and jump out, but it turned out that she only had a few small quarrels in person.
Of course, Lan Jieying's maturity is also due to the fact that everything goes smoothly. She now lives in a mansion, has high-end food and accommodation, and doesn't have to worry about life at all. After starring in "The Big Era", her fame has been rising steadily.
She has become a well-known TV star; everyone will give in to her on the set, firstly for Kang Jianfei's sake, and secondly, because of her current fame, no one will go against her without reason.
Everything goes smoothly in life, work, and career. Lan Jieying is in a happy mood and will not lose her temper because of a bad mood.
The only thing that made Lan Jieying feel uncomfortable was that Kang Jianfei had too many women. She almost couldn't help but call Kang Jianfei in the middle of the night many times.
When Lan Jieying brought the first dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes to the table, Kang Jianfei received a call from the theater company. "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" was released on Friday, with a box office of 9.17 million in the three days of the weekend. The floor of the theater was almost trampled by the audience.
