"Mr. Zhang!" After Wu Jianye saw Zhang Weiping, he just said hello lightly.
Zhang Weiping showed a bright smile. Although he was richer than most people in the entertainment industry and usually spoke openly, he really had nothing to be proud of in front of Wu Jianye.
Now Zhang Weiping's net worth should be around 100 million yuan, but now people all over the country know that Wu Jianye's movie invested 380 million yuan. Although he learned from the chat with Zhang Yimou that the actual investment in this movie was only 130 million yuan, but a movie
Dare to invest 130 million in the movie, which is already more than Zhang Weiping's entire net worth.
Why does Zhang Weiping now switch from the real estate industry to the film industry? One is because of the current national policy, and because of Qiong Province, banks have reduced their lending policies to the real estate industry. The other is that Wu Jianye's "Chu Xing's" was previously filmed.
The box office of "World" was exciting.
What's more, he also found out about the relationship between Wu Jianye and Xiangjiang Fengge Theater from Zhang Yimou.
Since Zhang Weiping wanted to enter this industry, he naturally did some research and knew that at this time in China, the only way to get real box office share was to release movies at Fengge Cinema.
Moreover, the equipment of Tangting Culture is said to be the most advanced and complete in the country. This was confirmed by Zhang Weiping from Zhang Yimou.
In other words, since he wants to enter this industry, he must establish a good relationship with Wu Jianye.
"Director Wu, have you heard Yimou talking about you a long time ago? I have always asked him to bring me to see you, but I was worried about delaying your filming, so I just came here today!"
"Mr. Zhang, you're welcome. Lao Mouzi's friends are my friends. You can come over often in the future!" Wu Jianye said politely.
"Director Wu, why don't you host me today to celebrate the fact that I and Director Wu got to know each other?" Zhang Weiping invited.
Wu Jianye waved his hand and said: "Forget it today, the crew still has a lot of things to do. Mr. Zhang finally came here, so let Lao Mouzi take Mr. Zhang to visit Hengdian!"
This is not because Wu Jianye knew some of Zhang Weiping's later behaviors and specifically refused Zhang Weiping's invitation. The break at noon was not long. After finishing the lunch, he and Zhao Fei and others had to talk about the next shooting plan.
Especially now that the filming process is already halfway through, the movie will involve a lot of big-scene shooting in the next few days, and Wu Jianye must keep an eye on the scene.
"That's no need. I came here specifically to learn from it today. If Director Wu doesn't mind it, why don't you let me have a box lunch on the set!" Zhang Weiping said with a smile.
Wu Jianye naturally had no objection to this: "As long as Mr. Zhang doesn't dislike it!"
"Haha, how could it be? I used to cook airplane meals!" Zhang Weiping's smile was still bright. Although he could hear some alienation in Wu Jianye's tone, he also characterized it as the first time between the two of them.
First acquaintance.
He believes that there is no friend in this world that he cannot make.
Wu Jianye didn't say much, and directly asked someone to bring Zhang Weiping a lunch box.
The lunch box is very simple, including spicy shredded pork, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a portion of stir-fried beans, along with a bottle of Nongfu Spring purified water.
"Director Wu, the food for your crew is pretty good!" Zhang Weiping felt a little contemptuous when he saw that this was all he had, but after eating, he found that the food in the lunch box was really good!
Zhang Yimou laughed at the side and said: "You don't know, Lao Wu can do everything else, but he will not wrong himself when it comes to food. This restaurant that provides lunch boxes for the crew has been searched almost all over the place.
It was only decided in Hengdian!”
As Wu Jianye's old classmate, Zhang Yimou naturally knew Wu Jianye's temperament.
Zhang Weiping laughed at the side and said: "Well, Director Wu and I have similar temperaments, and we don't want to wrong ourselves when it comes to food. I happen to know that a new French restaurant has opened in Yanjing. When I return to Yanjing, Director Wu
Be sure to appreciate it!”
When Wu Jianye was about to refuse, Zhang Yimou continued: "Then you really invited him to the wrong place. Old Wu, if you invite him to a French restaurant, you might as well invite him to a roadside barbecue restaurant.
Lu skewers."
Zhang Weiping laughed dryly and said, "Yimou knows Director Wu's habits quite well!"
Wu Jianye chuckled lightly from the side. Apparently Zhang Weiping was a little jealous.
But it was obvious that Zhang Yimou didn't notice it and joked: "That's for sure. We have been in a relationship for more than ten years. Not to mention what he likes to eat, I even know what kind of underpants he is wearing today!"
"That's too much. I'm not wearing any pants today!" Wu Jianye said.
Zhang Weiping: "..."
After having a few laughs with Zhang Yimou, Wu Jianye started discussing the afternoon shooting tasks with Zhao Fei, Zhang Yimou, Guan Yu and others.
Zhang Weiping on the side had no room to speak and could only watch quietly.
"By the way, how was your contact with the troops in the last city defense battle?" Zhao Fei asked: "We only have less than two months left to shoot in Hengdian, just for that scene
, it will take at least half a month to shoot, we have to find someone in advance!"
Zhang Weiping was stunned, didn't he say that Wu Jianye's new movie is a fairy tale drama? Why is there a war scene?
"Director Wu, I do have some connections here, if you need me!" But no matter what, Zhang Weiping finally found the time to show his strength.
Many people's understanding of Zhang Weiping may be limited to his cooperation with Zhang Yimou, but they do not know that Zhang Weiping actually has military experience.
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, but we have already contacted you, so we won't bother Mr. Zhang!"
Wu Jianye has indeed contacted the army. When preparing for this movie, Wu Jianye had already found the army through connections and borrowed people.
When he was filming "The Last Emperor", Wu Jianye had already established a good relationship with the army. At the same time, Maplewood Security has greeted more than 10,000 veterans over the years, and the relationship has always been very good.
Zhang Weiping could only smile.
After lunch, Wu Jianye sat there and continued to discuss the shooting plan with Zhao Fei and others. At almost one o'clock in the afternoon, he continued shooting.
Zhang Weiping, on the other hand, never left.
Although he received a lot of blows here today, this is not a problem at all for Zhang Weiping, who has decided to enter the film industry.
He had even made up his mind to stay here for the past few days. Whatever he said, he had to see Wu Jianye's specific strength.
In fact, Zhang Weiping did stay on the set in the following days, but due to the experience on the first day, he seemed to be very low-key in the following days.
Through observations over the past few days, Zhang Weiping discovered that Wu Jianye was indeed very strict when filming. No matter who it was, anyone who failed to meet Wu Jianye's requirements would be scolded. He even saw Wu Jianye with his own eyes.
It made the heroine of the movie cry.
That is Yu Feihong.
Although Yu Feihong's performance was already very good, in Wu Jianye's eyes, he thought that Yu Feihong's performance could be better, so when filming a scene in the rain, one scene of Yu Feihong was filmed more than 30 times, but it still didn't work.
In the past, he was directly reprimanded by Wu Jianye, which made Yu Feihong, who had always been very proud, unable to hold back tears in the end.
Zhang Weiping on the side looked a little unbearable.
At the same time, Zhang Weiping also saw that Wu Jianye was very respected in this circle. On weekdays, he would also hang out in the circle of extras to see how they lived. Those extras didn't know Zhang Weiping's background, so speaking of
There is no hesitation in speaking.
I can hear them complaining about many people, but when they mention Wu Jianye, they all give a thumbs up.
Later, Zhang Weiping found out about Wu Jianye giving out red envelopes during the Chinese New Year. To Zhang Weiping, thirty or forty thousand yuan was nothing, and he simply thought that he had learned another trick.
At the same time, I also feel that I finally have a systematic understanding of Wu Jianye.
After staying on the set for a few days, Zhang Weiping was ready to leave.
After the crew finished filming today, when they were preparing to say goodbye to Wu Jianye, they saw a few unexpected people at the Dynasty Hotel.
On this day, two Tesla a80s arrived at the entrance of the Dynasty Hotel. This is Tesla's top model, corresponding to the BMW 7 Series that will be launched this year!
Zhang Weiping knew about these two cars. The domestic prices were as high as nearly one million, but they had always been ignored. Only the mentally ill would buy domestically produced cars at this price!
But if nothing else, Tesla’s other civilian car series are still selling very well in China.
This is the first time Zhang Weiping has seen someone driving this car on the street.
But when the two car owners got out of the car, Zhang Weiping showed a surprised expression on his face.
He only knew one of them, and he met him when he was working at Siemens.
Luo Ziyu, General Manager of Tunan Technology!
As for the other person he didn't know, it was actually none other than Zhou Tao, CEO of Yaoguang Group.
In fact, when Tunan Technology just started to develop a few years ago, Zhou Tao also served as the general manager of Tunan Technology. However, as Yaoguang Group's business territory became larger and larger, Zhou Tao resigned from Tunan Technology in the past few years.
The position of general manager of Tunan Technology was taken over by Luo Ziyu, who came out of the talent reserve room of Yaoguang Group.
Luo Ziyu was one of the first talents to come out of the talent pool of Yaoguang Group. He first served as the general manager of the British Department of Tunan Technology, and then rose through the ranks until he succeeded Zhou Tao as the general manager of Tunan Technology.
"Mr. Luo!" Although Zhang Weiping was self-reliant and a wealthy man, he could only bend down to say hello in front of Luo Ziyu.
Currently, the three most popular mobile phone sellers in the world are Motorola, Nokia, and Tunan Mobile. The other two most popular computer sellers, IBM, are Tunan Computer!
This shows that Tunan Technology now has a global position.
People on Wall Street have made assessments that if Tunan Technology were listed separately, its market value could even exceed Motorola!
It’s just a pity that Tunan Technology has no plans to go public as of now.
As for the reason why Zhou Tao and Luo Ziyu came to Hengdian, it was actually to meet Wu Jianye.
Luo Ziyu glanced at Zhang Weiping with some confusion: "Who are you?"
"Oh, I used to be Zhang Weiping, the manager of the Siemens Business Department, and I once met Mr. Luo at a cocktail party." Zhang Weiping quickly introduced himself.
Luo Ziyu smiled and said: "It turns out to be Mr. Zhang!"
Originally, Zhang Weiping wanted to chat more with Luo Ziyu, but Luo Ziyu did not give him this opportunity. He just said hello and followed Zhou Tao into the Dynasty Hotel.
Zhang Weiping looked at the backs of Luo Ziyu and Zhou Tao curiously, especially the way Luo Ziyu was half a body behind Zhou Tao. It was obvious that Zhou Tao was the leader. He really couldn't think of anyone else in the country who could make Luo Ziyu so respected, so
He seemed more and more confused.
"What are you looking at?" At this time, Zhang Yimou came to Zhang Weiping and asked curiously when he saw Zhang Weiping looking a little distracted.
"I didn't see much, I just met a business tycoon from Xiangjiang!" Zhang Weiping said.
Although Tunan Technology currently has a very extensive business in the country, its place of registration is in Xiangjiang, and there is no way to change it.
So now domestic business people have been calling Tunan Technology a company in Xiangjiang.
Zhang Yimou didn't ask any more questions. He never cared much about such things.
"Are you really leaving tomorrow?" Zhang Yimou asked.
"Yes, I have to go back and work on the establishment of the company!" Zhang Weiping said with a smile: "By the way, what do you think our film company is called New Picture Film Company?"
Zhang Yimou nodded indifferently and said: "You have the final say on this kind of thing, and I will be responsible for making the movie!"
Zhang Weiping laughed and said: "Then it's settled!"
Zhang Yimou nodded and said: "Let's go. Since you are leaving tomorrow, go to Lao Wu and say goodbye to him!"
Zhang Weiping and Zhang Yimou walked into the lobby and came to the elevator. Zhang Weiping continued: "By the way, Yimou, your affairs here must be ended as soon as possible, and we must prepare for our company's new movie!"
Since Zhang Weiping wants to set up a film company with Zhang Yimou, he naturally attaches great importance to his company's first film!
Zhang Yimou said: "Lao Wu's filming here is about to end, so let's wait until his movie is finished filming."
Zhang Weiping said nothing more. Through observation during this period, Zhang Weiping discovered that Zhang Yimou had a very strong sense of dependence on Wu Jianye. This was naturally not a good thing for Zhang Weiping.
However, he also knew that this kind of thing could not be changed just because he wanted to, he had to take steps to do it.
After the two arrived at the floor where Wu Jianye lived, Zhang Yimou pushed Wu Jianye's room straight away without any courtesy.
"Old Wu, Weiping will leave tomorrow morning. Let's have a meal together in the evening to see him off!"
However, after Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping entered Wu Jianye's room, they saw that there were guests in Wu Jianye's room.
"Haha, Lao Zhou, you are here too!"
Zhang Weiping also discovered that it was Luo Ziyu whom he had seen before at the hotel door and the man he did not recognize but standing in front of Luo Ziyu. What surprised Zhang Weiping was that Zhang Yimou actually knew him...
