Chapter 80
"Mr. Fan, your samples are excellent."

"Just be satisfied."

"Satisfied and satisfied, how could you be dissatisfied. Your special effects really saved the life of this film. Without you, whether this film can be released as scheduled is still the same thing."

"It will be screened after all." Fan Zhe laughed.

From Director Du's words, Fan Zhe heard deep resentment, and it was obvious who it was for - obviously he was particularly dissatisfied with the investors.

But this matter has nothing to do with Fan Zhe.Although he also sympathized with Director Du, he felt that this guy had jumped into a pit.But as an outsider, I have no position to speak.

The two chatted for a while, and Du Zhengde suddenly mentioned: "Mr. Fan, do you have time tonight? If so, let's have a meal together."

Fan Zhe was a little surprised.

Ordinarily, I don't know Du Zhengde that well, right?The first time we met was at the wine table at that time, when I beat up Wang Lingxian with Wuna, it was not a pleasant first meeting.

After that, the two basically had no communication, let alone a personal relationship.

However, after thinking about it, he decided to accept Director Du's invitation.

For Du Zhengde, Fan Zhe didn't have much opinion.

Looking back now, when conflicts broke out at the dinner table, that guy Wang Lingxian didn’t talk about it. Hu Kang was a little bit protective of Wang Lingxian at the beginning, but it was only because he later found that he couldn’t protect him, and Fan Zhe himself had a firm attitude. He didn't care about whether the cooperation could be achieved at all, so he panicked and became quite humble.

But in Fan Zhe's impression, Du Zhengde was always there during the whole conflict, but he basically watched the whole process and did not help.

Fan Zhe doesn't dislike this person, and it's okay to have a meal with him.

He intends to enter the film and television industry, but in this industry, he does not have any reliable contacts.

Right now, it seems to be a good entry point.

……

Du Zhengde asked Fan Zhe out for this meal, the purpose was actually quite simple, just to make friends.

He has seen most of the special effects shots submitted by Dimension Entertainment.He was especially satisfied with the special effects of the last climax.

With a price of 2000 million, it can be done like this, what more can you ask for?
Since then, he has recognized the technical strength of 'Dimension Entertainment'.

As a director who wants to make blockbuster films and hopes to direct mainstream commercial productions for a long time in the future, it is naturally a very good thing to be friends with the boss of a special effects company with strong technical background.

Under the idea that the two of them are friends with each other, they chatted happily at the wine table in the evening.

Especially after drinking two bottles of beer each, they started calling each other 'old brother' and 'brother'.

At the dinner table, Fan Zhe asked Du Zhengde a lot about the film and television industry, including the general process of TV drama production.

Of course, what the two of them talked about the most was gossip in the circle.

At the end of the topic, Fan Zhe said to Du Zhengde with Jiu Jin, with a sense of joking: "Brother, I actually want to enter this circle to play, you know , I have technology here. Although the capital is not comparable to those industry giants, I can still use it. I also bought the copyright of a novel and want to make a drama. I don’t know if my brother is interested in directing it. ?”

He looked a little drunk, but he was actually very clear-headed.

In Fan Zhe's eyes, Du Zhengde's "Phantom Wars" just finished is a piece of rubbish, but it doesn't mean that his level is really bad.

Fan Zhe has also come into contact with this project. Although he has not been in touch with it deeply, he has a very big understanding of the conflict between Du Zhengde and the investor in the crew, and the investor's starting from casting, filming, and post-editing. put one's oar in.

Therefore, Fan Zhe believes that Du Zhengde is not at all responsible for this movie hitting the street, but he should not be responsible for the biggest pot.

Combined with some of the director's past works, Fan Zhe has also seen them, and he feels that this director is still a bit of a level.

He didn't have such an idea before, but after talking today, he suddenly thought, since the production of a series will be started anyway, why not invite this director?

Du Zhengde is not a great director, but he is still a mature director who has his own works and has worked in this industry for many years.

It is also a good thing to invite him.

So, taking advantage of the wine table, with a bit of alcohol, Fan Zhe sent out a test.

Even if it doesn't work, you can completely treat it as nothing after the fact. If there is really a need in this regard, it is not too late to make a formal invitation.

And Du Zhengde on the opposite side is also a fine individual.

Naturally, he was unwilling and inappropriate to accept Fan Zhe's invitation.

Lao Du first mixed in commercials and MV shooting, tossing around for a few years, and then went to filming TV series.Now that he has finally jumped out of the TV drama circle and mixed in the movie circle, he doesn't want to go back.

For directors, there is a clear distinction between being a TV drama director and a movie director, and, not to mention anything else, at least in terms of status, movie directors are almost at the top, looking down on TV drama directors.

The big screen overlooks the small screen, not only in China but also in the whole world.

It is actually much more difficult for a director to transfer from a small screen to a big screen than an actor. The professional requirements of the two are also somewhat different.

With great difficulty, Lao Du transitioned from the small screen to the film industry, and made several films in a row, all of which are on the rise.

If Fan Zhe said he wanted to make a movie, he might still be attractive to him, TV series?forget it.

But it's not good to refuse directly, but this is after all at the wine table, and it's over after a haha.

In this way, Fan Zhe almost understood what Director Du meant, and didn't get too entangled in this matter, and the table still maintained a relatively warm atmosphere.

When the two left the hotel, their footsteps were a little vain, but after calling a car and leaving, they immediately regained consciousness.

It's not really a gathering between good friends, this kind of dinner, only a fool will really get drunk.

Fan Zhe doesn't like drinking very much, but he doesn't dislike it either; his drinking capacity is not particularly good, but it's not bad, and he won't overturn after two or three bottles.

When he got home, he even took advantage of the strength of drinking some wine to draw a picture for a while, and when he felt almost done, he lay flat on the bed and fell asleep.
