Xiangjiang giants

Chapter 104 Screenwriter
In the TV station's office, An Yifei put the pen in his hand on the table, stood up and walked to the window.The temperature and rain in midsummer made the flowers in Phoenix Film and Television City bloom and lush, which calmed his mood.

The first part of "Across the World" once again created a new box office record for Hong Kong movies, reaching more than 800 million Hong Kong dollars, but compared with the few films in the United States, it is nothing.He has sent a copy of this film to DreamWorks for English dubbing, and used this film to try again to reflect the Chinese film in the European and American markets.

"It's a pity that the mainland film market has not been fully liberalized. We can only find ways to break into Europe and the United States. Expanding the market is the ultimate way out for Hong Kong films."
An Yifei lit a cigar and looked out the window amid the smoke.Even as a time traveler and with golden thighs, he couldn't tie European and American audiences to watch his Hong Kong movies.It seems very difficult to achieve the successful creation of Eastern Hollywood.

On the contrary, it was a bumper harvest for the record company. With the release of Michael Jackson's first album and the continuous explosion of the carpenter brothers and sisters, Phoenix Records finally opened a gap in the European and American markets, and "I·Miss· Songs with novel rhythms like "You" are also very popular in Europe and the United States. Zhou Huimin, a little girl, has the tendency to become a world-class singer unexpectedly.

Compared with Europe and the United States, which can easily talk about billions of dollars, An Yifei really looks down on the Hong Kong film market, but he cannot discard it, because after continuous improvement, he is targeting East Asia and the future mainland, and Hong Kong Island is His foundation, there are a large number of people following him to eat, it is not easy to give up, you can only overcome obstacles and find a way out.

This kind of thing should not be rushed. What An Yifei wants is not one or two famous movie stars in Europe and the United States, but the explosion of movies representing Chinese civilization in the European and American markets. things that can be done.

The knock on the door brought An Yifei back from his thoughts, and it was Miao Kexiu who came in, "Afei, what do you need from me?"

"Yes. What do you think of the newcomer Zeng Huaqian? Can you host the show instead?"

Sitting on the chair in front of the table, Miao Kexiu thought for a while, "Brother Fei, she needs at least two years of training, she's too tender. Also, you know I don't like to manage people. Leave it to Xiaoling, don’t look at her young age, she is really smart and has a tough personality.”

"Then you work hard and bring these newcomers. I will spare Ah Xing and let him concentrate on making movies."

"Well, I haven't been going to my place recently, there are new people and forget the old ones."

An embarrassed smile, An Yifei looked into her eyes: "Don't be stubborn, live in Danshui Mountain, Stardust Island will be completely completed before winter, let's go to Christmas together, and then I will give Your name"

Going around behind the table, sitting on An Yifei's lap, Miao Kexiu bit her lower lip, "Afei, I am very touched by you, but..., I also like freedom, I think the relationship between me and other women It won't be very harmonious, so, shall we be like this?"

An Yifei didn't care, because he understood her heart very well, and nodded: "Okay, I respect your choice, but, don't you feel wronged?"

Rolling her beautiful big eyes, Miao Kexiu laughed, "I grew up abroad, I think this kind of relationship is the best, don't you always say: distance creates beauty?" In fact, girls still have Without saying a word: "I don't want to have children, I don't want to be bound, sorry, Ah Fei"

Shrugging his shoulders, An Yifei could only reply helplessly: "Yes, you are all girls with independent personalities, and I don't want to be so selfish." He knew that a character like Miao Kexiu who seemed a bit "aggressive" was indeed inappropriate. Living in Danshui Mountain Villa will make you unhappy with other women. It is best for her to refuse.

"Brother Fei, didn't you realize that Xiao Ling looks like a person?" Miao Kexiu was secretly relieved to see that he didn't look unhappy, and changed the subject.

"Who does she look like? I didn't find it." An Yifei searched many celebrities in his memory, but none of them could match Ruan Xiaoling.

"Hey, I specially found a still photo, you can see who it is." Miao Kexiu smiled and got up, took out a black and white photo from her small bag and handed it to An Yifei.

"Hey, this is..." If Miao Kexiu hadn't said it specifically, An Yifei would have thought it was an artistic photo taken by Ruan Xiaoling at first glance, but the Japanese text above indicated that it was a rather "old" photo Japanese movie stills.

"Very beautiful, is this?", An Yifei is not very familiar with Japanese film actors in the post-war years, so he doesn't know who the beauty in the photo is.

"Her name is Sayuri Yoshinaga. She was born in 1945 and is almost 40 years old now. This is a still from her early movie, isn't it similar?"

"It looks like it, but Xiaoling doesn't like acting in movies, so I won't force her." After reading the information in Miao Kexiu's hand again, she pouted and threw it aside, thinking: "Only Is it more than 150 centimeters tall? Not as beautiful as Xiaoling"

"Oh, it's director Lin Dongling who likes Xiaoying and wants her to act in a TV series. It's hard to ask, so I asked you to ask about the possibility. I don't think it's possible." Miao Kexiu also curled her lips, She was very envious of Ruan Xiaoling's character, she knew that the man sitting behind the desk especially liked girls who could "quiet".

"Let Xiaoling decide for herself, I'll call her over." An Yifei's office is to the left of Honggu's, and the office on the other side has been vacant before, but is now used by Ruan Xiaoling.More than a minute after the phone call, she came over.

"Hey, is this my photo? No, the hairstyle is different, who is it?" Ruan Xiaoling looked curiously at An Yifei, then at the beautiful Miao Kexiu.

After listening to Miao Kexiu's explanation, she refused without hesitation, "I don't want to show my face. Mrs. Chen said before that it is best for married women to raise their children at home. I think she is right."

After exchanging glances with An Yifei, Miao Kexiu shrugged almost at the same time as him, "Oh, I really envy your character, Xiaoling, I want to be quiet too, but I can't do anything."

……

When Miao Kexiu left, An Yifei handed the written script to Ruan Xiaoling, "This is my new TV drama script, you go and hand it to Lin Dongling, I have already written the actors who are suitable for this drama, Explain directly to him the reason why you don't want to act, and don't let him have any misunderstandings."

"Okay, Brother Fei." Ruan Xiaoling, who has already put on professional women's clothing, looks very beautiful. In addition, she has learned how to put on light makeup, which compares many actresses. An Yifei is very satisfied with this unexpected "harvest" and smiles Looking at her slender figure walking out of his office door.

The script that I just handed over to her was written by An Yifei after making some modifications based on the classic TV series "Scheming Palace" in his previous life. The happiest years were full of his memories, so he specially bought a set of discs and copied them into the library.

The director An Yifei chose was Mei Xiaoqing, who came to Phoenix TV after the collapse of ATV. This is also the producer and director of the original drama. Zeng Huaqian, Kim Yunxi and others were all selected by him to play related roles in this TV series.

An Yifei, who originally planned to go out to do other things, estimated that Lin Dongling and others would come over for something, so he waited patiently in the office, which did not surprise him. After a while, Ruan Xiaoling brought a few people back to his room again. office.

"In addition to showing the palace fights in the Tang Dynasty as the background, this movie also needs to show the humanities at that time. The requirements are still very high. Now the finishing touches at the Deep Blue Film and Television City are all over, providing the best opportunity for filming. The environment is nothing more than the perfection of costumes and props, I will not be stingy about investment, and strive to make it a classic drama of this year."

What Lin Dongling was waiting for was An Yifei's words. His main concern was investment. A few days ago, the TV dramas with small investment made the ratings drop, so he was under a lot of pressure. He glanced at Mei Xiaoqing and signaled her It's time to ask questions.

An Yifei also looked at this talented woman with a smile, "Producer Mei, work under me, don't be cautious, just talk if you have something to say."

"Well, sir, the script is really well written. I've skimmed through it as fast as I can. There's only one question now. Who should play the leading role in your mind?"

"Has Wu Dairong from ATV come here?"

"Ah..., hey, he is really suitable, because he thinks the salary at Wireless is too low, and now he is staying at home to play." Mei Xiaoqing's eyes lit up when she was told, because what An Yifei said He is a handsome old actor.

"This drama needs to be carefully crafted, don't be so anxious, and Xiaoqing, you are a screenwriter. Now I have a plan to integrate all the screenwriters under Phoenix Media, and recruit some experts to establish an independent screenwriting studio Come out and deliver high-quality scripts to TV stations and film companies, what do you think?"

Mei Xiaoqing is not yet 30 years old, and she was a little excited after hearing this, "Sir, this plan is really great. I have many friends outside who are engaged in screenwriting creation. If I can give them a place to live and work, I will definitely write a lot of screenplays." If there is a good script, then our movies and TV will have an endless supply of resources.”

An Yifei smiled and glanced at Lin Dongling, "What do you think? Producer Lin"

Phoenix Media has changed a lot of concepts by An Yifei. Now it has formed a trend of emphasizing original musicians, singers with good voice quality, and actors with acting skills. It has a freshness and vitality that is completely different from other companies.An Yifei's respect for originality and art has long been the essence of Phoenix Media.
