In the entertainment industry, I only like making movies.

Chapter 60 Visiting

.......

Huayi Headquarters.

Bang!

Wang Zhongjun slammed a newspaper down on his desk, glared at Zeng Chunhua, the director of the publicity department, and angrily demanded, "What is Yu Dong trying to do?"

"They're poaching our talent, just by using Bona Film Group, a second-tier subsidiary!"

The newspaper featured a photo of Yu Dong and Liu Guoning checking into the hotel where the "Taken" crew was staying.

In addition to newspapers, many online media outlets also reported on the topic.

Last night, Yu Dong made two preparations, arranging for reporters to stake out outside the hotel and take photos of them.

He had a well-thought-out plan: if Fang Yi agreed to join Bona, the reporter would collect the money and leave.

Nothing will happen; everything will be peaceful.

If Fang Yi refuses, the photos he took will be published in the newspaper today, allowing reporters to write whatever they want.

After a night of build-up, the internet was abuzz with discussion.

[Major news in the entertainment industry: Bona Film Group's boss and a rising director held an all-night discussion!]

[The Huayi scandal is far from over; a repeat of the departure of China's top talent agent may be on the horizon!]

[Rising director Fang Yi is highly sought after, with major film and television companies extending offers to him!]

[Taken is generating buzz even before filming begins; director Fang Yi is attracting significant attention in the film industry!]

Various reports sprang up like mushrooms after rain, dominating entertainment headlines and attracting countless netizens and onlookers to comment online.

"Haha, Bona is amazing, daring to poach talent from Huayi!"

"Fang Yi is amazing; one movie made him a guest of honor for major film and television giants."

"Huayi isn't someone to be trifled with; Fang Yi might not necessarily choose Bona!"

"Yu Dong wasn't ruthless enough. If it were me, I would have had reporters take photos of me with Fang Yi, shaking hands, putting my arm around his shoulder—do you understand what I mean by sowing discord?!"

"The person upstairs is an idiot. If you do that, Fang Yi will hate Bona to death!"

"Pshaw, who does he think he is, a director!"

"Let's watch the show, let's wait and see what the up-and-coming director decides!"

"Where we go doesn't matter, making a good movie is more important than anything else!"

The heated comments on the computer screen in front of him enraged Wang Zhongjun, who shouted, "Contact the media immediately and make them remove the advertorials and give the reports a cold shoulder. We must not shake the morale of 'Rescue Hurricane'!"

A 5000 million investment shouldn't be ruined by a few mere photos!

That son of a bitch Yu Dong, I'll remember you!

Wang Zhongjun snorted coldly, waved for Zeng Chunhua to act quickly, and then looked at his younger brother Wang Zhonglei standing to the side.

"Don't go to Fang Yi. You need to show the company's trust in him. We can discuss all issues after filming 'Taken' is finished."

"I understand, I get it."

Wang Zhonglei nodded slightly, his face hardening: "Brother, it's only polite to reciprocate."

"If Fatty Yu dares to do the first thing, we'll do the fifteenth. 'Election' will be released in October, and Bona is the distributor in mainland China. Want it?"

At this point, Xiao Wang raised his right hand and swung it down in a chop.

"No, this can't be done."

Wang Zhongjun shook his head and glared at his younger brother: "This movie was brought in by Sil-Metropole Organisation. The filming of 'Taken' in Hong Kong needs Song Dai's help."

Song Dai contacted me a few days ago, saying he was optimistic about "Taken" and hoped to subsequently negotiate the film rights for Asia.

"We don't need to offend the Silver Capital Organization and the Song Dynasty!"

"Damn...that's just letting Fatty Yu get off easy!"

Wang Zhonglei cursed and pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag.

Cheap..

A sharp glint flashed in Wang Zhongjun's eyes.

Bona Film Group is venturing into film production this year. Huayi Brothers is the real leader in this field, and they need to teach Yu Zheng a lesson. Film production is not as fun as it seems.

In an instant, he made up his mind and said, "Have someone find out which films and TV series Bona Film Group has been testing the waters with this year."

"Find the director, screenwriter, lead actors, and investors—all of them!"

"Alright, I like this job!" Wang Zhonglei said with a sly smile.

......

Fang Yi ignored the power struggle between Bona and Huayi.

He pretended to be completely unaware, focusing on supervising the actors at the hotel and striving to quickly resolve the pre-production filming challenges.

Yuan Heping came from the set of "The Banquet" today, bringing with him two other assistant action directors.

Fang Yi called everyone together for a brief meeting.

"Eighth Master, Brother Zhuo."

"I first set the overall tone for the fight scenes in the movie: it will be realistic, fast, accurate, and ruthless, without too many fancy tricks. Everything will focus on killing the enemy as quickly as possible."

First, meet the above requirements, then make adjustments little by little, adding a touch of flowiness.

In the conference room, Yuan Heping and others took notes on Fang Yi's requirements while discussing and setting out the general outline.

Master Ba was very experienced, and many classic action scenes came to mind. Some could be copied directly, while others needed to be modified.

The difficulty of the "Hurricane Rescue" move was not high for him, and it was far less impressive than the scale of the "Night Banquet".

After the meeting, Fang Yi hosted a banquet at the hotel, treating everyone to a good meal.

With filming about to begin, the actors are in good spirits and have made significant progress in their understanding of the script and their characters.

Li Yang, the deputy director of Huayi Production, sent many photos of filming locations in Hong Kong, Thailand, and Myanmar.

After reviewing the photos, Fang Yi carefully compared them and selected several locations near the sea and river, asking Li Yang to book them in advance.

......

The next day.

Fang Yi carried two bags downstairs, put them in the trunk of his Volkswagen, and drove to Shunyi District.

At 9:30 a.m., a Volkswagen drove into Liu Yifei's luxury mansion in Shunyi.

The little girl opened the gate herself and guided the Volkswagen cars to park in the garage on the side of the mansion.

On the bus, Fang Yi looked at the lively and adorable young woman outside, dressed in a white T-shirt and denim shorts, and felt a little dazed.

Only at home can the fairy sister reveal her true childlike innocence, without having to pretend to be mature and composed, or maintain the demeanor of a lady and fairy, as she does when she's out.

She often talks about being a loser and unsophisticated in front of the media, which shows that she doesn't like to pretend and wants to be consistent in her words and actions at home and outside, so that she can feel comfortable and at ease.

pity..

The entertainment industry is rife with scandals, and few people can truly be consistent in their words and deeds, living comfortably and freely.

The little girl's idea could only be achieved through trial and error.

After parking the car, Fang Yi got out, and two dog barks came from a distance.

He glanced at it, opened the trunk, and waved to Liu Yifei.

"Sisi, come here."

"On my first visit, I didn't bring any gifts. But since you like filming action movies, I asked Jackie Chan to import two sets of wires."

"Oh...really?"

"What wire work? Let me see."

Liu Yifei was overjoyed, her phoenix eyes sparkling with delight, and she jogged over with her long legs.

Her snow-white skin appeared moist and delicate in the sunlight, and her slender and powerful movements resembled two sections of white bamboo and jade lotus root, a sight to behold.

Fang Yi looked away, picked up the wire, and laughed, "This is a high-end wire used in professional Hollywood action scenes. The whole set of wires is too expensive for me to afford."

"So... two sets of special harnesses and clothing, and ten load-bearing steel cables."

Both the harness and the clothing are black; the professional term is: custom-made full-body safety harness.

The actors' costumes are well-fitting, comfortable, and concealed, with multiple connection points that not only distribute weight but also allow for adjustment of body posture and control of rotation to assist in performing movements.

The steel wire rope is thin and flexible, using aerospace-grade high-strength stainless steel wire rope and high-performance synthetic fiber rope, and its load-bearing capacity can withstand 10 times the user's weight.

For example, if an actor weighs 200 pounds, the steel cable can withstand up to 2000 pounds, making it a strictly safe material.

Liu Yifei ran her little hand over the safety harness, her eyes filled with delight, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "It's so beautiful and so sturdy!"

"This is much better than the wire work I used when filming The Return of the Condor Heroes. Thank you, senior brother, I really like this gift."

She held the gift in her arms, looking at the handsome Fang Yi, feeling sweet joy in her heart, as if something had struck her heart.

Hehe, my senior brother is so nice!

Seeing that she was satisfied with the gift, Fang Yi blinked and said gently, "With this wire harness, you'll be safer filming in the future."

"Yeah, I almost got into trouble on The Condor Heroes last time, thanks to Brother Xiaoming."

Liu Yifei nodded vigorously, and when she talked about the accident that happened on the set of The Return of the Condor Heroes, a look of lingering fear appeared on her pretty face.

"Come on, senior brother, let's go inside."

"Mom is cooking in the kitchen, and she's prepared lots of delicious food."

The little girl gestured towards the main building of the manor, then took the lead with Wey in her arms, turning her head as she walked to beckon Fang Yi to come inside.

Her vibrant, youthful beauty is just like that of a joyful sprite.

Someone's heart raced, once again feeling the girl's charm.

Only by getting up close and personal can one truly understand what a fairy on earth is.
