Chapter 752: Pulling Investment

"The Hong Kong film landscape is too small, and action films are limited to gangsters... Before "Once Upon a Time", there were two models. One was a silly boy who went around the world to learn skills from his apprentices and then killed his enemies with his own hands. Representative works include Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao, Sammo Hung, All the early kung fu films of Liu Jialiang; the other kind is about a generation of great masters who are very angry and wake up after experiencing setbacks. The representative works are all the films directed by Jet Li, such as "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng", "Feng Wu Heroes", "Huo Yuanjia", "Fang Shiyu" and other films. "

"Both types of kung fu movies have one thing in common, which is that the perspective is basically based on the individual."

"The "Once Upon a Time in China" series is different...Xu Ke calls it "Once Upon a Time in China"..."

Shen Xudong chatted with Wu Jing and Yu Qian about "Once Upon a Time"...

As he started talking, Yu Qian couldn't help but say: "You already said it's a classic, why do you want to remake it?"

"...Well, actually it's not a remake. I mainly want to make an action movie...because Jiahe relies on action movies to gain a foothold..."

"Then are you sure it will surpass Li Lien's version of Once Upon a Time?"

Shen Xudong smiled bitterly: "How is that possible... It would be good to receive good reviews... Times have changed, and everyone has already seen the most classic ones. If you make new ones, you must compare them..."

"Does it have to be photographed?"

Shen Xudong smiled: "You have to put some pressure on them, maybe they can really do it!"

After chatting, the three of them got on their horses and ran for about 40 minutes. Then they dismounted and got to know the horses, feeding them fodder and cleaning them.

The horse is quite cute, staring at you with its big wet eyes.

After finishing these things, I got back on the horse and rode for more than an hour, which was almost done.

The three of them left for Yu Qian's zoo.

Oh, the three of them are going to eat!

On the way, Wu Jing asked Shen Xudong: "What do you think I should do?"

"What do you mean?"

"Every action actor wants to create his own era, and I want to, too. I feel like I am missing a representative role right now."

"You definitely don't want to leave the costume, and you can't leave..." Shen Xudong thought about it for a moment, and then said: "You can try to imitate Stallone and play a soldier!"

"Has Stallone ever played a soldier?"

"Of course he played Rambo in the "Rambo" series. I even bought his figure when I was a kid!"

Hearing this, Wu Jing's eyes suddenly lit up: "You mean a military action movie?"

"Yes, I will play a special soldier, the kind who can do anything from heaven to sea..."

Wu Jing hesitated: "But I don't understand very well..."

"It sounds like I understand it. If you want to play a soldier, then go to the military camp and experience life. It's better to be a soldier than to play a soldier!"

…

In fact, the industry doesn't like Wu Jing because he is the one who broke the circle. The success of the "Wolf Warrior" series was an accident.

"The Founding of the Army" and "Three Lives Three Worlds", which were released at the same time as "Wolf Warrior 2", are very popular movies!

The halo of the circle has been taken away by you, an outsider. Do you think the circle will like Wu Jing?

The subsequent "The Wandering Earth" was also an accident. It was supposed to be a non-existent movie due to lack of funds, but you, an outsider, saved it and even became a benchmark in the industry. It also reduced the so-called "production cost" of the industry. If your underwear is completely torn, can others like you?

Moreover, director Guo Fan is also an outsider. He is from the Law Department of Hainan University. By the way, Xin Shuang, the director of "The Long Season" who was very popular some time ago, graduated from the University of Political Science and Law...

If China's film and television industry has any turbulence, it has to rely on "outsiders", which has to be said to be a kind of tragedy...

…

Since mid-October, Shen Xudong has disappeared...

Even if he doesn't appear in public, he didn't show up at the premiere of "Geng Hao Returns to His Hometown".

Many people thought he had gone to the United States, but in fact, he just didn't bother to show up, so it didn't mean much.

Media interviews always have the same few questions. Che Zhuglun kept talking back and forth, which was very annoying. Besides, he had provoked a group of people some time ago!

You must know that most of the media at this stage are admirers of the lighthouse country...

Once Shen Xudong shows up, he will definitely target him.

So, I simply didn’t come out…

I commute to get off work normally every day. If I don’t want to come to the company anymore, I go to the racecourse to ride horses.

Oh, he simply took over the horse farm and spent about 20 million more to buy more than 60 horses. They were fat and strong.

These horses are all purebreds and cost hundreds of thousands of dollars each.

It's good, since he has money anyway - he has bought more than a dozen houses in several first-tier cities across the country, and he feels there is no need to buy anymore. Apart from buying some stocks with deep memories, most of the money is spent on fixed investments. Deposited by him in the bank...

Money, when circulated, can create GDP...

He doesn't engage in art collection or anything like that. He bought a horse farm, which not only provides him with a place to play, but also opens it to the public...

Oh, he didn’t mean to hide anything when he did these things, so the film and TV circles in Beijing quickly learned about Shen Xudong’s new hobbies and new places...

A bunch of people came and adopted the flattery.

Adopting a horse at a racecourse can be understood as paying a certain fee to the racecourse, owning the right to adopt a horse for a period of time, and enjoying some horse-related rights and interests, such as visits and breeding guides...

This thing is very expensive, costing tens of thousands a year!

But... Shen Xudong... everyone was willing to flatter him, so the adoption rights of more than 50 horses were sold in just one week for 120 horses.

Shen Xudong didn't care. If someone came to visit, he would just meet him...

If there is someone who needs help, it is a small favor that can be easily done with a little effort. If he can help, he will help. If the risk is too great, he will decline...

By late November, he simply stopped going to the company.

However, the blog is still being updated, and book fans know that he is working on some new novels...

…

In the racecourse and pavilion, Xu Jinglei looked around enviously while drinking tea: "Did you buy all this?"

Shen Xudong said casually: "Well..."

"What? Retired?"

"No, I just think it's good to develop a hobby..."

"Tsk, tsk, you just developed a hobby and bought someone else's horse farm... I heard that you also planted 300 trees? Each one is worth more than ten thousand?"

"...Breathe the freshest air!"

Shen Xudong did not deny...

"I'm coming to find you this time..."

Shen Xudong interrupted her: "Have you brought the plan?"

Xu Jinglei was stunned for a moment: "Planning document?"

"Movie planning...didn't you buy the rights to adapt the movie "Du Lala's Promotion"..."

"you know?"

"Nonsense, our company also wanted to buy it... but you had already acquired the film rights in advance, so we bought the rights to adapt the TV series and hired Teacher Zhang Wei to write the screenplay..."

Shen Xudong was staying at the racecourse, but the racecourse was on the outskirts of Beijing and not an isolated place, so the information was still very well-informed.

I heard that Xu Jinglei is planning to switch to making commercial films, but it is not going very well to attract investment...

It's quite strange. Logically speaking, Xu Jinglei's fame shouldn't be a big problem in attracting investment, but she approached Huayi and was declined. Later, she went to Wu Zheng's Sunshine Media, and was almost dragged to see Wu Zheng. Being an investor means having a drink with him!

When Wang Shuo found out, he was very angry and directly scolded "Wu Zheng is a liar..."

This made Yang Lan very angry and went to war for her husband. Then Wang Shuo refused to change his temper and said, "He is just a liar. What are you pretending to do?" If he has the ability, he stands up and lets his wife speak out. What kind of man is he? He is a typical little man. ’

Of course Shen Xudong knew about such a big thing...

Xu Jinglei shook her head: "I have no plan..."

"You want to make a commercial film, and you told me that you don't have a plan... then you have to have a script, right?"

"Well, here..."

Xu Jinglei pointed to her mouth: "I dictate, you listen..."

"Okay, you tell me..."

"I think it would be better to order something else first...at the pavilion?"
