"Brother Long! This is Director Chen Kai! " As the host who invited Brother Long, Jia Yapeng naturally had to greet him in person and introduce him to Director Chen.
"Haha, I know Director Chen. We almost shot a movie together!" Brother Long said with a smile. In just a few words, Director Chen was very happy. Brother Long could become the boss of the whole Hong Kong. His ability to be a good person was indisputable.
"Mr. Jia, you won't blame me for coming uninvited, right?" Yang Ziqiong said with a smile, "I heard from Brother Long that you are going to premiere today, so I came here shamelessly. You won't blame me, right?"
"Of course not. I'm very happy!" Jia Yapeng laughed and said, "But then again, I have a movie here. I don't know if Miss Yang would like to help me!"
"Coming!" Yang Ziqiong was suddenly happy. She didn't expect Boss Jia to be so polite and so understanding. He even began to repay her on the spot.
Yang Ziqiong risked being banned by the whole Hong Kong film industry to attend the premiere with Brother Long. Of course, it was not just to give face to Jia Yapeng. After all, Mr. Jia didn't take the initiative to invite her. To put it bluntly, she actually came here to enjoy the premiere.
But Yang Ziqiong still came. The reason was very simple. Our Boss Jia was rich.
Yang Ziqiong was different from other people in Hong Kong who were dedicated to the Hong Kong film industry. Although she was Malaysian, she paid much more attention to the mainland than other people. So she knew how powerful Jia Yapeng and the Daqian Group behind him were now.
In terms of capital, although there was still a big gap between them and some big companies in Hong Kong, the mainland behind them had great potential. Their future was limitless.
Now, Mr. Jia had obviously shown his interest in the film industry. If she could be the first to show goodwill to Mr. Jia, then this favor would be worth a lot of money. After all, it was easy to add flowers to a brocade, but difficult to provide help in times of need. Yang Ziqiong gave face to Jia Yapeng today. Would Mr. Jia not give her any benefits in the future? Would he ask her to shoot a movie?
Therefore, Yang Ziqiong came without hesitation.
However, Yang Ziqiong did not expect that Boss Jia would return the favor so quickly. They had just met today, and he directly asked if she was interested in shooting a film. This made Yang Ziqiong very happy.
"Wait, could it be that this young boss has taken a fancy to me?" Yang Ziqiong had such an idea in her heart. Then, she pondered for a moment. It seemed that being able to get close to such a big boss was not a bad thing.
Of course, on the surface, he still had to be reserved and calm.
"Director Jia, I don't know what kind of movie you're planning to make. As long as it suits my style and I have no problems with the schedule, I'm very willing!" Yang Ziqiong smiled.
"There's a movie and a TV series!" Manager Jia smiled and said, "The movie is called A Journey to the West. But it will take some time. I have to make an appointment with Mr. Xing. However, the filming of the TV series is about to begin. I estimate that it will be filmed in China next month. I just don't know if Miss Yang is willing to condescend! "
"This …" Yang Ziqiong could not help but hesitate.
The movie A Journey to the West. Although she had never heard of the name, since Jia Yapeng planned to invite Mr. Xing to shoot it, Yang Ziqiong naturally would not have any hesitation. This was even more of a problem.
However, Yang Ziqiong was really hesitant about a TV series.
There had always been such an unwritten rule in the film and television industry. That was, once an actor entered the film industry, he would never enter the TV industry again. This sounded a little ridiculous, but it was a fact. People who made movies looked down on those who made TV series. As the saying went, water flows down to the bottom, and people walk up to the top. People who had already entered the film industry would never return to the TV industry. Once they returned, they would be abandoning themselves.
Therefore, most of the famous movie stars would not film TV series, especially the movie stars from Hong Kong.
However, later on in China, this rule was much weaker. As long as there was money to be made, it was fine to film or TV series. Moreover, China was different from Hong Kong. The income of an actor from a TV series was far greater than the income of a movie. This problem was very realistic, so later on, actors did not pay so much attention to it.
"I wonder what kind of TV series this is?" Yang Ziqiong asked curiously.
"A TV series co-produced by Hua Xia and Fusang. It is also a special Ultraman TV series for children!" Jia Yapeng said with a smile.
"It's actually Ultraman!" When Yang Ziqiong heard it, she was a little dumbfounded.
In fact, Yang Ziqiong was not unfamiliar with Ultraman at all. She also watched Ultraman grow up when she was a child. Once upon a time, she wanted to participate in an Ultraman TV series. It was also one of Yang Ziqiong's childhood dreams.
But now that she had grown up, her thoughts were naturally different. If you let her film a TV series, and it was a TV series for children like Ultraman, it was really a little stressful.
If this spread out, Yang Ziqiong was afraid that she would be disgraced in the entertainment industry.
"Miss Yang, don't underestimate a special TV series for children. Although it can't attract adults, it has a fatal attraction for children. In the next twenty years, when these children grow up, they will still remember the heroes of their childhood. As long as the impression is deep enough, I personally think that the future is still bright! "
"Yes, what Mr. Jia said makes sense!" Yang Ziqiong chuckled and didn't speak. Obviously, Yang Ziqiong refused. However, Yang Ziqiong thought that she could not be so disrespectful. Otherwise, all her efforts would be in vain. Moreover, "A Journey to the West" starring Stephen Chow was quite tempting.
So Yang Ziqiong said, "But I can make a cameo appearance in it. Just treat it as having fun!"
"That's good!" Jia Yapeng nodded. He invited Yang Ziqiong on a whim. It was expected that she would refuse.
"Mr. Jia, what movies are you talking about?" Brother Long asked with a smile after he finished chatting with Director Chen.
"We are talking about a movie and a TV series!" Jia Yapeng explained with a smile.
"A Journey to the West." After Brother Long heard it, he was obviously not very interested. This kind of movie sounded like gods and demons, which was not in line with Brother Long's routine. As for the TV series for children, it was even more impossible.
However, Brother Long was still very polite. He took the initiative to say, "If there is no problem with the schedule, I can make a cameo appearance!"
"Haha, thank you, brother!" Jia Yapeng laughed. It seemed that the 4.5 million advertising fee was very worthwhile. Unfortunately, Brother Long's advertising curse was a little too strong. Otherwise, Jia Yapeng would have asked Brother Long to make some more advertisements.
On the other side, Director Chen heard that Jia Yapeng actually planned to make a TV series and a movie, and immediately became interested.
Director Chen Kai was certainly not interested in a TV series, but he was interested in a movie, and it was a movie like "A Journey to the West".
The 1986 version of "A Journey to the West" was very popular. If there was a movie version, Director Chen Kai was very willing to do it.
Thinking of this, Director Chen Kai felt that he needed to have a good talk with Jia Yapeng. How could he forget about such a good thing?
