Gossip King - Chapter 1131
Chapter 1131 The Tiger’s Mouth Was a Little Wild
Steal that piece of meat? That depends on which piece of meat Su Su wants to eat. These directors are all here to invest in the Huantai Group. Now that Gaoleng rushes up and tells them that my Starlight Group is investing in you, they won’t listen.
Starlight and Huan Tai are not on the same level. If you want to put it on your body, you are also Huan Tai.
“Are you planning to shoot that film from the Southern Song Dynasty?”
“Historical movies are hard to make. It’s better to remake one. It’s cheap and the box office is high.”
“Get some fresh meat and get a fire book. President Su will definitely be interested. What’s the point of entering the movie and television industry? Isn’t it just to earn money?” ,
“That’s right. The Huantai Group has just entered the movie and television world. That big shot in the movie and television world has gone to sea. She definitely wants to earn money.”
The people in the room began to discuss. Each director had a few books in his hands. Several producers came, and all of them were chatting happily with their counterparts.
“President Su is here.” Suddenly, a person said. The room quieted down. Looking at the door, Su Su walked in wearing a long green dress. There was a green pendant hanging on her chest that landed right in the deep valley of the mountain peak. Not much, not much, it just happened to be there. Her long hair was tied up and fastened with a few jewels on it. It was extremely elegant.
It looked like a beautiful lady in a European painting.
The room was well heated, the sleeves of the long skirt were just above her forearms, and the green clothes made her snow-white skin look like pearls. Strangely enough, although Su Su’s figure was extremely good, when a man looked at her, he would not notice her plump chest immediately, even if there were green jewelry hanging on her chest that was extremely attractive.
She wouldn’t look at her agile waist at a glance, even if it looked absolutely beautiful.
She wouldn’t even stare at her beautiful buttocks, even if she moved like this, the swaying skirt hooked her long legs to make people feel relaxed and happy.
Strangely, a woman with such a good figure would only notice her eyes the first time men saw her.
The confident and slightly arrogant eyes on his face.
Her temperament seemed to have suppressed her figure, and her figure carried her noble temperament even more.
“President Su, you’re so beautiful today.”
“Aiyo, President Su, your appearance has crushed a large number of first-line actresses.”
“Unfortunately, President Su, if you were to be the heroine of my film, then it would definitely be a big fire.”
The director and producer got up one after another. They were all flattering, but not all of them. Su Su’s appearance really crushed a large number of female stars. There were too many female stars these days. To put it bluntly, even cats and dogs could come to be. Apart from the female celebrities at the top of the hall who were still worthy of admiration, other artists were not in the eyes of the big shots.
Besides, Su Su was a real lady. She had been running all over the world since she was a child. Ordinary women were good at learning piano. She was like playing the piano. There were also horse riding, curling, skating, chess, and even professional golfers. Not to mention her proficiency in several languages and a degree from a prestigious overseas university.
Rich and honorable people carefully cultivated this temperament, how could a female star compare?
“I’m flattering you.” Su Su smiled faintly and wanted to sit down. Director Zhang hurriedly pointed to the seat beside her. Although the famous director was gathered in this room, the person with the biggest wrist was Director Zhang. He was an old senior. Su Su took the opportunity to sit next to her.
“As for me, I want to invest in a few movies and get involved in the film and television industry.” Su Su was famous for being swift and fierce. As soon as she sat down, she began to talk about business. Her gaze swept around. As soon as these words came out, several directors looked at each other. They knew that if they moved Su Su, their play would be considered as having a big patron.
Huan Tai was a big patron that every director wanted.
Everyone in the room looked at Su Su.
“From this year to next year, cast four films. Try the water first.” Su Su placed one of her hands on the table and knocked rhythmically, “Two for National Day and two for the New Year next year.”
There weren’t many four movies, but it was definitely not a small number for him to cast four movies on his first time in the film and television industry.
“The Hua brothers heard that they are going to put in more than 30 movies tomorrow. They estimated that more than a dozen of them will go online on National Day and New Year’s Day. The water in the film and television world is a bit deep. Let’s try four first.” Su Su stopped her fingers and made up her mind.
“President Su, what kind of play are you planning to put on?” Director Zhang was a senior director in the film and television industry, so he was the first to ask.
‘”In what way…” Su Su turned her head to look at Director Zhang and said half-jokingly, “Director Zhang, you want me to invest in art films, don’t you?”
Director Zhang chuckled, “President Su is indeed wise. I guessed it.”
“Do you still need to guess? If Director Zhang said that he wanted to make a New Year movie, how many patrons would he need to rush over and beg for your investment? You must have come to my Huan Tai Gate to make a movie.” Su Su smiled and gave Director Zhang a thumbs up, “Our Empire directors have to rely on Director Zhang to win international awards.”
Hearing this, Director Zhang’s eyes burst out with golden light.
Hearing Su Su’s words…
“However, this is my first time entering the film and television world. I won’t shoot scenes that are easy to die.” Director Zhang was so happy that his mouth had just opened when Su Su’s words poured cold water on him like a basin of cold water.
“I’m sorry, Director Zhang. You have been killed in the past five years. When I have a firm foothold in the film and television industry, I will definitely shoot for you. But this time, it won’t work. Why don’t you shoot a historical drama and I’ll invest in you?” Su Su said.
Historical dramas were much more likely to survive than literary dramas. Moreover, they were all big-budget dramas. Director Zhang’s eyes lit up again.
“Did everyone bring a plan?” Su Su asked.
“Yes.” Almost in unison.
“Alright, give me the plan. I’ll call you guys in a few days.” Su Su stood up and said, “Have fun. I will look at the plan.”
“President Su, invest in these four movies. Do you personally handle them?” One of the directors was surprised to hear something.
“Right.” Su Su nodded affirmatively and looked at Gaoleng, “I’m quite interested in this. Let’s play with the big shots in the movie and television world.”
Su Su personally operated the knife, this was to crush Gaoleng.
After Su Su turned around and left, she walked to another room. That room was filled with the bosses of the partners. She was always the busiest at such an annual meeting, and as soon as she left, the directors exploded.
“President Su personally takes care of the knife, then there’s no need to worry about the money.”
“That’s right, if President Su invests in my film, then I don’t have to watch the expressions of other investors.”
“Last time I filmed that, the investor brought money into the group, and it also accounted for 80% of the capital. In the end, he asked his girlfriend to act as a female lead. What do you think I am? A rookie director? What an insult.” A director was indignant at the mention of the matter.
“The rookie director is a man, a woman and an investor. The man, two women and two directors are the same. Who are you, an investor? You don’t understand the rules.” The others began to speak.
The rules of rookie directors are the same. Male number one and female number one are all set by investors. What? The investor ordered a man and a woman who didn’t have acting skills? Alright, then I won’t invest in you. Why are there so many rookie directors investing in you? Just vote for someone else.
Many investors invest in a movie to promote an artist, so they can see a lot of bad movies on the market. Many female stars are better than female stars. That’s because female stars and male stars are the directors. Directors are lucky to have directors for number two, and many movies even have other investors for number two.
A rotten film was born.
However, this was the rule for rookies. Everyone came here this way. Everyone present was famous directors. The notebooks in their hands were all very rich, and the appeal of artists was also very high. They already had the strength to choose investors, not investors.
Evidently, Su was always the best investor, especially if she personally took care of it, that would definitely be a huge sum of money.
“Director Zhang, I think President Su is still very interested in you. One of her four movies is definitely a historical drama. Anyway, you promised the people from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television to make four movies that are in line with the rules. You’re still one short. Why don’t you just make a historical drama?”
‘”That’s right. History dramas need to be made with money. If they are made with money, they will be beautiful. President Su will definitely be able to make money. Besides, she will definitely want you to make one of the four movies she invested in.”
When the directors heard that Su Su was only filming four movies, they immediately knew that they had no chance. They all turned their gazes to Director Zhang and said.
Director Zhang was an old senior of a domestic director, so Su Su would definitely be interested in him.
A good historical film is much higher grade than a New Year movie. Moreover, historical films are especially investment-oriented. If you look at it with a little investment, it will be rough. That set of clothes can’t be watched anymore. If Su Su invested in four movies, then there would definitely be a large-scale historical drama, and it would also be a huge investment.
Director Zhang began to ponder for a moment. Su Su had already told him clearly that no literary films would be made, so choosing a historical film was a good decision.
“We need to prepare well. I’ll go to the hotel to have a meeting with them first.”
“That’s right, I’m going to have a meeting to prepare.”
Several directors stood up. They didn’t come to Su Su’s annual meeting to play alone. This was a mission. Everyone’s team elite was waiting in the hotel.
Director Zhang, however, did not move. He frowned and looked to be in a bad mood. He picked up the wine glass and drank it himself.
“Director Zhang, aren’t you going back to prepare?” An old man asked.
“What are you preparing? How many historical movies have I made? I used to have notebooks. I don’t have any pressure on these scenes.” Director Zhang shook his head and said, “Hey, I really want to make this movie.”
After everyone left, Gaoleng stood beside Director Zhang and asked, “Director Zhang, shall I sit and drink with you?”
“Yes.” Director Zhang didn’t pay much attention. Then, he pointed and nodded. He was confident. As long as he said that he would shoot a historical film, Su Su would definitely choose him. However, she was obviously very depressed in her heart. She drank mouthfuls after mouthfuls of it.
“Director Zhang, when did you make that art film?” Gaoleng raised his glass and asked.
“Ah.” Director Zhang stretched out his hand and scratched his hair. “No matter if it’s a black cat or a white cat, catching a mouse is a good cat. I don’t think that’s right. I want to pat some of the drawbacks of the reform and opening up.”
Hearing that, Gaoleng felt a chill run down his spine.
Regardless of whether it was a black cat or a white cat, catching a mouse was a good cat. That was what the former Supreme Leader had said. It was also the vigorous reform and development that had begun under these words. Director Zhang could film the scenes of this era, but he definitely had to be positive.
Reform and opening up have brought vigorous vitality and so on.
Ya actually wanted to film the drawbacks of this era? !
Although everyone knows that “no matter if a black cat or a white cat catches a mouse, it is a good cat”, this statement seems to be problematic today. At that time, a large number of factories were opened to promote the economy. The economy has developed, but the environment is bad.
What you said, catching a mouse is a good cat, getting rich is a good project.
There are indeed many problems under this tide, such as sewage, air pollution, permanent pollution of fields caused by heavy metals, and so on. However, it was enough for everyone to understand in their hearts. There were occasional reports in newspapers and magazines about this matter, and the country did not stop them. Wasn’t there freedom of expression?
But Director Zhang wants to shoot this thing out?
What was his identity?
A famous director like Empire wanted to film the drawbacks of this dynasty? If Gaoleng was from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, it would be the first to disagree. If Director Zhang was an obscure director, he might have been tried, but he was so famous that he wanted to shoot this?
Gaoleng shook his head. Not to mention Su Su, he didn’t dare to cast this film.
It is very difficult to pass the trial of plays in this era. No wonder Director Zhang hasn’t filmed a few literary films before.
“Sorry to interrogate you.” Director Zhang sighed, “Actually, I was just an ordinary family in that era, but this era is too special. Those grandsons of Radio and Television definitely wouldn’t dare to let me go through the trial. But it’s because of this era that the story is so good. Those movies that I haven’t tried before are all from this era. I just want to make movies from this period.”
Wen Qing was like this.
Director Zhang was Wen Qing, so even if he was filming New Year’s movies, he was still very skilled. However, Gaoleng was not an ashen-ranked literary genius. From the perspective of his investment, Director Zhang was really the one who voted for and lost this literary film.
Even if he won an international award, it would still be a loss.
The drama of this era was very oppressive. Those who saw the drama of this era were basically quite old. And now, the main force of the box office was 80 to 90 years later. When the other plays went on with the drama, everyone would pay for the tickets. However, other people’s box office appeal was strong. They could still earn money after paying for the tickets. But this kind of play is going to earn back a lot of box office…
It was difficult to ascend to the heavens.
No?
Are there still any scenes these days that don’t flourish?
Gaoleng shook his head. He didn’t dare to vote for this play, but he looked at the directors in the room. Director Zhang was the best filmmaker. If you wanted to film a play and you already had a notebook, finding Director Zhang was definitely the best candidate.
“Damn it, this is what employers and employees want to shoot.” Director Zhang was a genuine imperial capital citizen. He loved to swear, and he didn’t avoid the media. More than once, he cursed at the press conference of the new film. He was also extremely addicted to cigarettes, one after another.
Gaoleng looked at Director Zhang, feeling troubled in his heart.
Before coming to Su Su’s annual meeting, when he thought about wanting to make a film, Director Zhang was the first choice for the director. However, it was definitely not an investment to make this movie that he wanted to make. This movie was too sad to be examined. If he did not pass the examination, it would be equivalent to making it in vain.
Other media moguls could afford to make a movie for nothing, but he, Gaoleng, could not.
“Why do you always want to shoot this? Do you want to shoot something positive?” Gaoleng advised.
“What’s the point of being positive? I’m heading for the International Awards.” Director Zhang is also someone who can kill three literary films in the past five years, but still insists on making this. If you want him to give up this for a while, it’s absolutely impossible.
Originally, he wanted to grab food from Su Su’s tiger’s mouth, but he didn’t think that Zhang Dongzi would be a bit wild.
Gaoleng pondered for a moment before his subordinates knocked on the table.
