Chapter 1633 Star Lord

As expected, Tan Xiaotian drank too much again.

It’s not okay to drink too much. So many people come to support him, and he, the host, always has to accompany the guests to have fun.

However, after becoming drunk, Tan Xiaotian had not forgotten the main business. He found Chen Kexin and chatted with him for a few words.

Chen Kexin kept nodding, "This is simple, leave it to me, and arrange for you to meet as soon as possible."

There are three things to talk about Xiaotian’s trip to Hong Kong Island: one is to celebrate birthdays, the other is to open a restaurant, and the third is to meet someone.

Although he has been to Hong Kong Island many times and has met many filmmakers, he has never seen the actor he most wants to see, the actor Zhou Xingxing, known as the king of comedy.

In his most entangled and saddest days in his previous life, this man accompanied him through difficult nights, pulling him back from the brink of collapse again and again.

There are many filmmakers in Hong Kong, but only three or four people have reached the peak. In Tan Xiaotian's mind, Zhou Xingxing is always the best one.

On the one hand, admiration is one more important reason. Tan Xiaotian wants to see him is that next year, that is, in 2013, Zhou Xingxing swept the Spring Festival with a movie "Journey to the West", breaking the box office record of mainland movies maintained by "Lost in Thailand" and greatly surpassing it.

―The meeting with Zhou Xingxing was arranged by Chen Kexin. The location was in the private room of Tianshi Restaurant, and the time was the night after the opening.

Compared with the person who laughed and scolded nonsense on the screen, Zhou Xingxing in reality is very quiet. She sat with gray hair and also gray-haired Chen Kexin, which made Tan Xiaotian feel a very strong sense of trance.

Stephen Chow, I’m old! “Tan Sheng, I heard from Director Chen that you want to see me.”

When Zhou Xingxing spoke, a shy smile on his face that was extremely disproportionate to his age.

"Step Chow, I have admired you for a long time. Today I finally met my idol."

Tan Xiaotian was really excited.

Zhou Xingxing smiled, "Tan Sheng is joking. I have watched many of Tiantan Film and Television's works, especially the "Cook God" that just went offline. It's simply amazing. Luc Besson is worthy of being a great director."

He is a major commercial director, and it is very telling that he is so concerned about "The God of Chef".

Tan Xiaotian ordered the food to be served, and the three of them chatted while eating.

"Step Chow, do you have any ideas for making movies recently?"

Zhou Xingxing did not answer Tan Xiaotian’s question immediately. Instead, Chen Kexin smiled and said, “Mr. Tan, do you want to invest again?

I have a plan recently, and I will invest in it for the sake of my old friend.”

Tan Xiaotian's mind flashed and he immediately knew what Chen Kexin's new film was.

It must be "Huaxia Partner".

"No problem, Director Chen's film must be nothing to say. If you look back, you can contact Sun Li directly. You can discuss the specific amount yourself."

"Haha, Tan is always happy. I've done this cup, thank you."

Chen Kexin raised her glass and drank it all.

Zhou Xingxing heard the conversation between the two.

In fact, he is also planning a movie. Because there are many special effects, he has to hire a special effects company in Hollywood, so the cost will definitely be very high.

He has long heard of this generous name of Tan Sheng, and has a very good reputation in the industry. He has no vague investments to make money and do not interfere with the director's ideas.

But... Zhou Xingxing still had a little hesitation.

He also has his own company, so he is not afraid of anything else, but he is afraid that he will have too much money and will accumulate his own profit margin when he divides the box office in the future.

After Chen Kexin finished joking with Tan Xiaotian, Zhou Xingxing said what he had thought for a long time, "Tan Sheng, I have an idea recently. I want to make a movie related to Journey to the West. When it comes to investment, I thank you for your favor. But for such a big thing, I want to go back and discuss with the people in the company. Can you give me some time?"

"No problem, Stephen Chow, don't have any worries. Even if you don't accept my investment, it doesn't matter. Just treat the meeting today as just a simple meal."

Tan Xiaotian’s smile is very sincere.

After leaving Tianshi Restaurant, Zhou Xingxing and Chen Kexin were in the same car.

Zhou Xingxing finally expressed the question that was pressing down on his heart, "Kexin, I just fear that Tan Xiaotian would be too rich, and he would use his identity as an investor to influence my creation. In addition, his investment proportion will be too large, which will squeeze my profits."

Chen Kexin laughed and patted Stephen Chow on the shoulder, "Axing, you are still the same and have too much thought. I have worked with President Tan so many times, but he never interferes with the director's work. Also, you only see the bad side, but ignore Tan Xiaotian's real energy."

"oh?"

Zhou Xingxing showed a curious expression, "What is it?"

"Influence, Tan Xiaotian's influence in the mainland is unattainable. Huaying's Lu has a very good relationship with him. If you can get along with Tan Zheng, your movie will definitely be smooth in the mainland market in the future."

When Chen Kexin said this, she turned her head and looked out the car window, with a hint of bleakness in her eyes, "Axing, Hong Kong Island is too small, the market is limited, the future of Hong Kong Island movies is in the mainland!"

It was this sentence that completely touched Zhou Xingxing.

After returning to the company, he immediately convened a meeting of staff. The next day, he made an appointment with Tan Xiaotian and expressed his agreement to accept the investment.

As expected, Tan Xiaotian immediately called Sun Li.

Sun Li immediately took people to Hong Kong Island and signed contracts with Zhou Xingxing and Chen Kexin respectively.

The new movies of the two directors are temporarily named "Journey to the West to Suppress the Demons" and "Huaxia Partners", and are expected to start filming in the second half of the year.

All three things on Hong Kong Island were successfully completed, and Tan Xiaotian flew back to Yanjing with his wife and children.

May is the tourism season in Yanjing.

People from all over the country flocked to Yanjing, making this super city even more overcrowded.

Tan Xiaotian didn't want to go anywhere. For three days, he stayed in Dongshan Villa, swimming, fitness, and taking care of his children. It was not until May 4 that the holiday ended and there were fewer tourists, so he had a meal with Lu Heng and Wang Lin in the evening.

On May 5, at Yenjing Yida Cinema, the premiere of "Avengers" was held here.

Perhaps because of Xiaotian, TL Film and Marvel both attach great importance to the Chinese market. In order to attract Chinese audiences, they specially sent Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, who played Captain America, and Scarlett Johansson, who played Black Widow, to China for the premiere.
