A finals banquet, where the guests and hosts enjoy themselves.

The most important reason is naturally because Ding Zhi has always been generous and generous, and basically every member of the crew received corresponding red envelopes.

This is almost customary.

This is only a small part. If the movie is released and sells well at the box office, the red envelope at the celebration party will be the big part.

After making money, Ding Zhi never hesitates to reward those who work hard for him.

He knows very well that if he wants his brothers to work hard, they must first provide enough money and food.

In fact, this is a truth that all young and dangerous people understand. Some people just don’t understand. They will talk to you about prospects, the future, and ideals, but they won’t talk to you about money.

Are they stupid?

No, it's just greed.

After all, if you cast a wide net, you can always catch the stupid fish that just came out of the ivory tower.

After a year or two, the silly fish tastes better, and there is another batch of freshly graduated leeks.

For example, some of the characters who came to socialize and enjoy the meal, some came back satisfied, while others scolded their mothers secretly.

After all, dinners related to Ding Zhi can be regarded as high-end dinners to a certain extent.

Sometimes it's like this. After your status rises, even having a meal may not be so pure anymore.

This dividing line probably started after the success of "The God of Medicine".

That Mr. Lin had successfully swayed Ding Zhi, and a certain little green tea man with ulterior motives thought he had it right.

For example, Assistant Director Chen also received a verbal promise from Ding Zhi that if there is a chance for the next film, he will be contacted again.

After all, it is better to use familiar tools than to use them raw.

Ding Zhi has also dealt with tool men many times. The replacement rate of these things is very fast. After most of them have accumulated some experience with Ding Zhi, the resources leaked from Ding Zhi's hands are enough for them.

For example, Li Wenfeng is now a famous TV drama director, so Ding Zhi dares to use him as a tool from time to time.

Some time ago, SWAG Studio released several pretty good books, and now Li Wenfeng has them in hand and is ready to start shooting.

Nowadays, Jiuyao Media's content output mainly focuses on two points, a movie project that Ding Zhi personally controls.

On the other hand, the television drama aspect is gradually being handed over to Li Wenfeng.

And Cai Wen, the tool man, is now gradually starting to have opportunities to get started.

Again, Ding Zhi has a bit of a charlatan temper and is used to treating his brothers who work under him favorably.

During this period of time, although "The Wind" didn't have a big hit at the beginning, as a niche word-of-mouth drama, after it started airing for a period of time, its ratings in certain categories rose instead of falling.

Moreover, as a star-rated drama with more than 30 episodes, it has a relatively long period of time to wait for word-of-mouth fermentation, and its ratings are indeed

Regarding the company's TV drama business, Ding Zhi has gradually let go of his power.

For example, the rough outlines of books such as "Inverse Game" and "Favorite" that Ding Zhi worked on before were also handed over to SWAG Studio.

Now, Ding Zhi is officially focusing on film projects.

Not long after Ding Zhi's closing banquet, Bona couldn't wait to start operations.

Among the previous cooperation talks with Jiuyao Media, "Untouchable" was to test the waters, or in other words, it was to give Ding Zhi face that he took over the global distribution job.

According to Bona's side, this is considered a tie-in.

The next attempt is the meat of the show.

...

...

A few weeks later.

"Mr. Ding! Here, here!"

Mr. Lin, who held the banquet, had a slightly feminine name, Lin Fangsheng.

But what he brought today was not the innocent and charming little girl like the day of the wedding banquet, but a man with some hair on his temples.

"Let me introduce you! This is Wu Qishang! Wu Dao!"

After that, he said to the Wuqi merchant again.

"This is Mr. Ding, and he is also a very valued partner of Bona. Of course, he is best known as an actor."

In fact, Lin Fangsheng's introduction was just a courtesy move.

Ding Zhi naturally knew who this Wu Qi Shang was.

He is the most famous director in Hong Kong in this time and space.

At the end of the last century, he was one of the very few directors in China who had gone to Hollywood to open up the scene.

When Ding Zhi was making movies at home, he had seen many of this director's works.

Its unique style of genre films has indeed inspired Ding Zhi a lot.

He was once hailed as a landmark figure in Hong Kong's new gun action films.

In particular, Wu Qishang was one of the first directors to introduce special effects blockbusters as early as the end of the last century, and the works he produced are not too outdated even compared to today more than twenty years later.

However, since "Castle in the Sky", a hugely expensive film produced by this UU director, suffered a disaster ten years ago, very few of his works have been released in the past ten years.

To say that "Castle in the Sky" was a real failure, Ding Zhi heard the rumors and seemed to have almost bankrupted the production company.

In fact, "Castle in the Sky" is somewhat similar to a traditional fairy tale movie.

Ding Zhi has also seen it, and its techniques and shots need to be consistently excellent, and he must also be quite thoughtful about the role of special effects.

However, the narrative that Director Wu Da was most good at before was a bit confusing.

After watching it, many viewers complained that they had been defrauded of their movie money.

The special effects are good, but as for the special effects, some people didn't even understand what the movie was about after watching it.

However, a small number of film critics are praising it crazily.

Online reviews of this movie can be described as polarizing.

Ding Zhi's evaluation was that it was innovative, but not pleasing to the eye. Upon closer consideration, it seemed to have a somewhat experimental nature.

To be honest, Wu Qishang was almost sixty at the time, and he still had this idea of ​​seeking self-improvement. He was truly worthy of being a great director who would leave his name in the history of the film era.

But the problem is, it was a special effects blockbuster with an investment of nearly 500 million, and it was 500 million ten years ago. As a result, the director of Wuhan University used it to make an experimental film.

It can only be said that after the film was released, the box office results almost made the investors and production companies furious.

That is to say, today's society under the rule of law is set in Hong Kong Island in the 1980s and 1990s. The king of sunglasses who almost had his leg broken probably will be his fate.

Those people who are crazy about losing money don't care about respecting the old and caring for the young.

On the other hand, it was because Wu Qishang was older.

In fact, it is extremely rare for a great director like Guo Shi to be able to maintain a high level of productivity even in his seventies after becoming famous as a director.

As a director, Ding Zhi has just won the best picture for "The Intouchables", which can be said to be in the spotlight for a while.

But precisely because he was too capable, Boehner would not agree to him being the director of the new film.

After all, with Ding Zhi’s strength, if he is really allowed to become the director, then to be honest, there is no telling which company will lead this drama in the end.

For this drama, Bona actually invited Wu Qishang to come out, which even Ding Zhi could not have imagined at the beginning.

"Hello, Director Wu, I've heard of you for a long time!"

Facing the hand that Ding Zhi extended out, Wu Qishang shook it reservedly and then slowly put it down.

"Have you read the script?"

The three of them sat down and went straight to the topic.

Even when facing Ding Zhi, who had just won Best Actor and Best Picture, Wu Qishang maintained a reserved attitude.

“I’ve finished watching it, it’s very good.”

Next to Xiaopang, he took out a stack of thin notebooks from his bag, and Ding Zhi took them and put them on the table.

There are four big characters written on the top of the script, "Jian Yu Jiang Hu".

Wu Qishang's eyes focused on the script with its corners rolled up, and he turned over a few pages. It was densely packed with notes and questions written by Ding Zhi in red pen.

It can be seen that in the past few days after receiving the script, Ding Zhi focused almost entirely on this script, and even the editing of "The Intouchables" was slightly delayed.

Wu Qishang noticed that there was even a blank space in the script where an ugly stick figure was improvised.

It looks like a naughty child scribbling in a textbook.

Wu Qishang frowned at first, and then after looking at it for more than ten seconds, he suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly, with a bit of surprise in his eyes.

"Is this a shot you...did you draw?"

Obviously, Wu Qishang realized that those graffiti that looked like jokes were actually sophisticated, and corresponded to the drafts of each plot and lines.

Although this draft is really too rough, there is no doubt that, regardless of the poor painting skills, the position of the characters and the use of lens language are accurately drawn.
To be continued...
