Huayu Chunqiu, starting from being adopted by a fairy mother

Chapter 161 Zhang Min Comes Out
The filming continued. Student Xie was very honest and had no temper at all.

A few days later, Liu Jing finished filming his scenes, and soon after that, Xiao Fan also finished filming his scenes.

Liu Jing took Xiao Fan to the hospital to check on Jiang Biehe, and his injuries were not serious.

He returned to Yandu to go to school, and Xiao Fan went to Yinchuan to participate in the Hundred Flowers Awards.

He thought the matter was over, but he didn't expect it to cause such a big stir.

Xiao Xie wanted to play some positive roles to improve his image, but this had the opposite effect.

These have little to do with Liu Jing, just follow the normal procedures. The one who is worried is Fatty Wang.

Xiao Fan won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress, which brought Liu Jing two chances to draw a lottery. He planned to wait for the day of Xixi's 18th birthday to draw the lottery.

Eighteen years old is not far away, it will be next year.

Liu Jing was very pleased to get a reward right after investing. This was the most efficient transaction in history.

"Huan Xisha" was released, and the four beauties washing silk dominated the screen for a month. Gao Yuanyuan's Xi Shi holding the heart became the computer desktop of many people.

But what amazed everyone the most was not Xi Shi, but the Yue girl.

Sweet, naive, innocent, smart, pure and beautiful, coupled with the sharpness and agility when she uses the sword, the Fairy Sister has attracted countless fans.

Liu Jing’s most intuitive feeling was that Xixi’s fame value had increased to 74 points.

At the end of 2004, Chunqiu Academy selected twelve beauties from "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" and "Huanxisha" and rushed to print a batch of 2005 calendars.

Liu Yifei, Liu Tao, Chen Hao, Jiang Xin, Shu Chang, Jia Jingwen, Gao Yuanyuan, Chen Xiuli, Chen Shasha, Lin Jing, Guo Feili, Tao Hong, each representing a month.

No, Chen Shasha found a master and changed her name to Chen Zihan. The name changed, and suddenly it had a lot more connotations.

Once the calendar was launched, it sold millions and made a profit of thirty to forty million. The Chunqiu Academy had a bulging wallet and gave out big New Year red envelopes to all the authors and staff.

After "Huan Xisha", "Xia Ke Xing", "Sword of Royal Blood and Valour", "The Untold Story" and "The World's Number One" were released one after another.

These dramas brought Liu Jing hundreds of thousands of entertainment points. With the release of other dramas shot by several of his friends, Liu Jing's entertainment points exceeded 900,000.

"The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" was not better than "The Sword Stained with Royal Blood", and Lai Da Hu Zi lost to Zhang Da Hu Zi.

On March 2005, 3, the crew of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" was established.

As soon as the crew members were announced, there was an immediate uproar.

Producers Zhang Min and Zhang Jizhong, directors Yu Min and Zhao Jian, music by Mai Zhenhong, action directors Yuan Kui, Zhao Jian and Liu Jing...

This is nothing. The most eye-catching thing is that Jin Yong’s name is in the screenwriter column.

As soon as the bearded man took office, the first piece of news he hyped was that Jin Yong personally participated in the script writing. Since it was hype, it must not be entirely true. He did participate, but it was just a little bit of a part.

The second piece of news is that Zhang Min will be invited to play Li Mochou. This is Zhang Min’s first play after retiring from the screen. It is an exception and the only one of its kind.

The third piece of news is that the crew will conduct the first round of casting on May 5 and is scheduled to start filming on August 25.

Just as the popularity of Yue Nu died down, the establishment of the Return of the Condor Heroes crew came into the spotlight.

After many twists and turns, "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 1" was finally released in mid-2005.

Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Linger, Lin Yueru, Anu, Tang Yu, Drunken Swordsman...

Liu Jing never imagined that a play that he originally didn't like would cause such a sensation.

Bai Xiuzhu and Wang Yuyan in 2003, Yue Nu in 2004, and Zhao Linger in 2005, four dramas in three years directly pushed Sissi to the quasi-first-line star.

The four great actresses took ten years to complete the journey, while Sissi completed it in three years.

The fame value is 79 points. Even Liu Jing was jealous, let alone others.

The disturbances in the outside world had little impact on Liu Jing and Xixi.

Sissi studied hard at school, and scripts came like snowflakes and sank into the sea like stones.

The role she took on in 2005 was decided a year ago, and it was The Return of the Condor Heroes.

Liu Jing was also studying at school, and every one or two months, he would go to Beijing Dance Academy and its Affiliated High School to get some free time.

His journey to the college entrance examination was very mysterious. He signed up for the directing department examinations of the Beijing Film Academy and the Central Academy of Drama, and also took the examinations.

She originally wanted to study hard and make a name for herself, but her college entrance examination results blinded Xixi's eyes, frightened Shu Chang, and he suppressed Yang Mi with force.

Little did they know that the two universities had issued special admissions to Liu Jing, allowing him to be admitted as an exception. He did not need to take the college entrance examination, as long as he nodded, the school would stamp his name.

Liu Jing hesitated. If he didn't take the college entrance examination, wouldn't it be a waste of all the years of learning? After ten years of hard study, of course he wanted to show off in the college entrance examination.

The Central Academy of Drama is waiting for him to take the college entrance examination and respects his choice.

President Zhang of Beijing Film Academy and Dean of the Directing Department Tian Zhuangzhuang came to see us.

Principal Zhang said that as long as you come to our school, you can study for both your bachelor's and master's degrees.

Liu Jing negotiated the price and made a request: Can you give me a place in graduate school?
The leader of Beijing Film Academy asked, who are you going to recommend for admission?

Liu Jing replied, "This is Liu Yifei, a student of your school." The leaders of Beijing Film Academy said that after Liu Yifei graduates, she can choose any graduate school she wants.

Liu Jing readily agreed, and the leader stamped the agreement immediately, and the deal was done.

With great excitement, he rode his motorcycle and rushed home at full speed. He wanted to tell Sissi the good news.

There were guests at home, and they were all acquaintances, Zhang Min and my aunt.

"Mu Tou, how was your talk with Beijing Film Academy going?" Everyone knew about the recommendation. No one interfered with Liu Jing's choice. It was entirely up to him to decide.

"The conversation went very well. Where's Xixi?" Liu Jing looked around but didn't see any familiar figure.

"She went shopping with Shu Chang. They should be back by now." Sister Li looked at her watch.

"What national affairs are you talking about?" Liu Jing felt strange. The three of them were sitting in the yard with a pile of documents on the table. It was obviously not like they were chatting about daily life.

"Sister Li and I are discussing entering the film industry, and we have different opinions." Zhang Min pulled over a stool and asked Liu Jing to sit down.

"What's your opinion? Why is it different?" Liu Jing was cheered up. In the entertainment industry at that time, those who worked in movies looked down on those who worked in TV.

"According to Wen Qiong's opinion, we will consolidate our foundation in the field of TV dramas. Compared with the US, the current film market is not very mature. The domestic market is weak, and we can't enter the international market. It's better to wait for another two years." Zhang Min handed the information to Liu Jing, "This is compiled by Wen Qiong. It compares the data of the film industry in China and the United States, as well as the development history and analysis of future trends."

Liu Jing flipped through the information, "What does Sister Li mean?"

"I think we should take advantage of this time to build cinema chains and lay a solid foundation. No matter how well a movie is made, it will be useless without the support of cinema chains. In the future, many film and television companies will be strangled by cinema chains and will have to make wedding dresses for them." Sister Li responded.

Liu Jing was a little surprised, "You can do this."

"I had a small gathering with Lei Jun, Pony and a few others a while ago, and we talked about the entertainment industry. What I said was just repeating what others had said." Sister Li said with a smile.

"Sister Min, what do you think?" Liu Jing turned and asked Zhang Min.

"Recently, many people have approached me to make movies and have handed me some scripts, hoping to start cooperation. I can't make up my mind, so I asked everyone to discuss it together." Zhang Min rubbed his forehead, feeling a headache.

"Sister, you don't have to do everything yourself. We have trained a lot of talents over the years, and we need to give full play to their roles." Liu Jing felt a little distressed. The woman looked much more haggard.

"It's too big to spread out at once, so I need to digest it well." Zhang Minmin felt relieved by Liu Jing's concern.

"Mu Tou, what do you think?" asked my aunt.

"You and Sister Li are both right. Your opinions do not conflict. Let's build our own cinema chain. This is not like making a movie. The investment cycle is long, and it takes up a lot of money. It is also asset-heavy. I suggest starting from first-tier cities and then gradually moving down." Liu Jing pondered for a moment and continued, "Real estate prices should continue to rise, and by a lot. Let's do it in one go and buy the property rights ourselves, which will save us a lot of trouble in the future. The expansion will be much slower, but it will be more stable and have more stamina."

"Okay!" Zhang Min was the first to respond.

"Well! According to data analysis, it will take several years for our domestic film market to develop. Let's lay a solid foundation in these few years." My aunt nodded.

"I will provide 200 million yuan in funds in the early stage. What should our cinema chain be called? Will it still be Chunqiu?" Sister Li asked.

"Chun Qiu, it sounds nice." Zhang Min said with a smile.

"We have cooperation with Wang Jing, Huaxia Audiovisual, Ciwen, and Xi'an Film Studio. They promote their artists in our plays, and we can also promote our artists in their plays. As for the big screen, let them show their faces. Gao Yuanyuan can try to move to the big screen," Liu Jing suggested.

"It's already being done." said my aunt with a smile.

"Zhang Min, do you really want to play Li Mochou? No one could invite you in the past, so why did you decide to do it this time?" Sister Li suddenly asked.

Zhang Min glanced at Liu Jing and said, "When you are very still, you want to move."

"I originally wanted to arrange for Li Xiaoran to play Li Mochou, as both of them have the last name Li." Liu Jing muttered, he was also surprised. The bearded man suggested it, and he thought Zhang Min would object, but she agreed so readily.

"Hehe..." Zhang Min just smiled. You used my name to invite so many big names to accompany Xixi, and I shouldn't take the initiative.

"Li Xiaoran looks carefree, but he is actually quite scheming. No wonder he signed the contract with us. It seems like he wanted to get rid of the stalkers." My aunt curled her lips.

"Sister Li, many people have suggested that you play the role of Huang Rong. Would you like to consider it?" Zhang Min said with a smile.

"Forget it." Sister Li shook her head repeatedly. This could cost her life.

"Oh, there is one more thing. Wang Jinghua came to me. Her contract with Huayi is about to expire. Huayi has been supported by her all these years, and she took the opportunity to put forward some conditions. The two brothers were not pushovers and did not agree. She has artists under her, and we have resources. She wants to bring her people and join our Chunqiu." Zhang Min sneered.

"Sister Min, she has not only contacted us, but also other companies. She is waiting for the best price. She will definitely go to the company that offers the best conditions." My aunt objected.

"She can make conditions to Huayi today. A few years later, when she has stabilized the situation, she can also make conditions to us. Huayi can't afford to support this great god, so we can't either." Sister Li reacted violently.

"I didn't say I agreed. I rejected her on the spot." Zhang Min smiled bitterly. You better listen to me.

"The artists under her are pretty good. I wonder if I can poach a few of them while they are in internal turmoil." My aunt had some evil thoughts.

"Don't dream about it. Those artists will either follow Wang Jinghua or stay in Huayi. It's impossible for you to poach them. They are too involved with these two parties, including interests, emotions, handles, and other messes. Unless the two parties break up peacefully or the contract expires, Huayi and Wang Jinghua will not let go, nor will they let go." Liu Jing sneered. These things were told to him by Xiao Fan.

"When the Hong Kong entertainment industry used these methods, there were still some bottom lines. Now in the domestic entertainment industry, the bottom line is getting lower and lower." Zhang Min sighed.

"If we need artists, we should train them ourselves instead of just picking the ready-made ones." Liu Jing didn't want to bring up this topic, otherwise Zhang Min would be sad again.

He turned to Sister Li and asked, "How is Kangmei Pharmaceutical doing?"

"We have already acquired a controlling stake in Kangmei Pharmaceutical, and our people have gradually entered various positions. The old man is leading a team in preclinical research, and now there are results. The prescription is indeed real." Sister Li was excited, not just because she was going to make a lot of money. What woman doesn't worry about beauty and skin care?

"Very good……"
