Chapter 91 Lucky Boy

"Hahahaha! I just said that this kid Luo Zihang is a lucky star!"

Seeing the recent box office surge and the public's evaluation of the movie, as well as Zheng Xilan who was accidentally taken away, Director Liu Xu clapped his thigh and laughed.

The producer also nodded and said: "Yes, sometimes you really have to believe in evil. Luo Zihang and his agent are famous for their luck in the industry... But what happened to that unlucky guy Ma Weisheng?"

Only then can I sign the lucky star Luo Zihang?"

Because the movie was such a hit, several of the main creators and investors were happy and had the time to chat about gossip.

"Speaking of this, with Ma Weisheng's cheating luck, maybe I will have a chance to sign Luo Zihang in the future!" Liu Xu's agent slapped his thigh suddenly and said half jokingly and half seriously.

"That's a good relationship," Director Liu followed his words, "This way I can give him an internal price when I invite him to act in movies in the future... This guy is a lucky star, but his salary is rising too fast.

The agents from Feiyue Media were asking for more money, and that guy Ma Weisheng was the best among them... He just had bad luck."

As he said that, he looked at the two largest investors in the film and the boss of his film and television company, and said expectantly: "I made an appointment with Luo Zihang before to collaborate with him next time, the one with gun fighting skills."

The book and the humorous martial arts style seem to be very popular, and they can be added to it when the time comes... What do you think?"

"Ah ha ha ha... let's talk about it again." One of the investors said haha ​​and avoided the topic. "Let's discuss the hype using the old script in the future."

Liu Xu curled his lips helplessly, but he also knew why the investors refused to give an accurate letter.

Firstly, it is naturally because Luo Zihang's salary will rise a lot after this movie. Secondly, because of the current "Luo Zihang phenomenon", the income is not high...at least not so high that he has to spend a lot of money to hire him.

He came to participate in the show.

The producer on the side had already asked the question that Hong Dakun was thinking about.

Liu Xu on the other side also showed a look of sudden realization. When he was collecting information on Bajiquan, he had indeed seen that the founder of this boxing technique was a modern martial artist named Ma, the so-called Ma family.

Most likely they are his descendants or something like that.

No wonder Director Liu and others had to consider this issue.

Like most of the onlookers on the Internet, Luo Zihang believed that the other party was just here to gain popularity. Who in the right mind would care about fictional things in a movie... He was not written as a flower picker like a certain Taoist master.

Hong Dakun raised his eyebrows. After hearing the news, his first thought was not that it was trouble, but...

"Isn't this nonsense?" Hong Dakun laughed angrily. He cursed and said: "The things in the movie are fucking made up. Are the people in the Ma family crazy about money?"

"They said that the content about Baji Quan in the movie was untrue. The name and creator of Baji Quan should be the ancestors of their Ma family, so they asked us to issue an apology statement and compensate them for their mental losses.

fees and reputational damage fees.”

As soon as the big boss finished speaking, his secretary, who looked and had an amazing figure, opened the door and walked in.

When public interest began to fade away, Hong Dakun and the others finally released the first version of the script.

If Luo Zihang remembers correctly, his Bajiquan in his previous life has a much longer history, which can be traced back to the Ming Dynasty or even the Song Dynasty. The founder is too old to be tested...

With such popularity, the box office of "The Hero Lin Tiannan" has been very strong, and the rate of decline is not like a popcorn movie without much nutrition.

To put it simply, the Ma boxer in modern history should be the earliest martial artist to mention Bajiquan in the records. In history, this boxer was more than thirty years younger than Lin Tiannan. When he became famous

Lin Tiannan has long since died, but it is said that he received guidance from Lin Tiannan when he was young, so it is said that the founder of Baji Quan is Lin Tiannan, or that Lin Tiannan improved Baji Quan.

"Hey! What's going on!" An investor waved his hand and said to Hong Dakun in a dumbfounded voice: "Just ignore these clowns. If we ignore them, we will play into their hands."

Forget about the "script plan", after all, this is indeed what happened in the updated memory. What about the Ma family that jumped out of nowhere?

As for the third point...it's because Liu Xu directed the gunfight at the end of "The Hero Lin Tiannan" that received somewhat polarizing reviews, so investors were quite wary of him filming a gunfight scene instead.

However, until more clear information comes out, the mainstream view is that the boxer is the founder of Bajiquan.

When talking about this matter, Liu Xu's expression was a little more serious. After all, as a director, he gets a share of the box office, so he naturally hopes that the higher the box office, the better.

Who makes them investors?

Therefore, Liu Xu could only cooperate and change the topic and began to discuss the "script plan".

Luo Zihang couldn't believe his ears when he received the news.

And as director Liu Xu deliberately whetted his appetite, everyone's attention was also focused on what the original script was like. A group of troll netizens @the media who kept the original script, asked them to quickly give the old version of the script to the director.

Release it.

Of course, if it were a small star or a stage manager who was not that important, Hong Dakun wouldn't mind letting them "sacrifice" for the company.

Obviously he was the one who had lost face, and he still had to act with the person who had lost face. Liu Xu could only sigh secretly in his heart.

In the end, the plot arranged by Director Liu is unofficial history after all, and the concept of Ma Family Bajiquan has already penetrated into the hearts of those who practice martial arts, so they are already invincible, and there is not much benefit if they can't win.

Battle, why should we take it?"

The female secretary quickly replied.

Hong Dakun, the boss of the film and television company, was confused. He couldn't remember anyone named Ma who had a grudge against him.

The producer sarcastically said: "And I was there when the script was revised. The information collected by Director Liu also contains relevant unofficial history. Even if they want to find it, they have to find the person who originally wrote this unofficial history... still

It’s not like seeing our movie becoming a hit, all sorts of weirdoes and monsters will jump out.”

Because this plan had actually been made a long time ago, Liu Xu was just cooperating with the investor who had just changed the subject, so that he could have a step forward.

Although trolling netizens can easily be led to a rhythm, they are not really trolling. People with normal intelligence will not take this kind of obvious bullying behavior seriously.

"There is no need to worry about speculating on the script just yet. The current box office curve is still very optimistic. We will wait until the popularity starts to decline...but I think it can be mentioned a little bit during the subsequent road shows to increase the public's expectations."

…

So director Liu Xu teamed up with the screenwriter, Wu Zhi and the producer to specially hold a press conference.

"Does the other party mean to talk? Do we have room to hype each other up?"

"What the hell?"

It's just that Liu Xu, who has been in the entertainment industry for so long, felt sad for just a moment. He has long been used to this situation.

Although he is a relatively well-known figure in the entertainment industry, compared with these capitalists, he is actually not much different from those little idols.

"There is no need to hype this topic." An agent with more experience in this field explained: "First of all, those kung fu lovers will probably not miss Director Liu's movies, but more movie fans have no interest in Baji Quan.

There is too much understanding, so even if there is hype, it is just us unilaterally sending heat to Baji Quan.

"The difference is already huge, right? The plot of the Dajiang Gang is completely different, and without the setting of martial arts wizards, there wouldn't be those two humorous martial arts fights."

However, he quickly put aside the identity of the other party and asked a more important question: "What are they protesting against when they protest our movie? Are there any violations in our movie?"

Everyone present was stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought.

From this point of view, Bajiquan in this world is much "younger", so it is no wonder that there are so-called descendants who want to gain popularity.

Although Liu Xu felt very depressed about their distrust, but...

But at this time, an investor had a sudden thought: "Do you think... could this be Luo Zihang's power again?"

Director Liu Xu is still very important to his film and television company... After all, his movies can make money. Without certainty about the specific income, Hong Dakun will naturally not be so stupid as to make money because of such uncertain reasons.

Liu Xu gave up.

"If it is the 'Luo Zihang phenomenon', then we have to consider a question..." The producer was the first to speak: "Is this incident a positive or negative thing? Don't forget, except for the "Little Devil"

"Xian", the "Luo Zihang phenomenon" of other crews all has "victims" attached. Judging from the current situation, if someone needs to be "sacrificially" again this time, it will probably be Director Liu or Screenwriter Huang.

Already."

"Mr. Hong, the Ma family held a press conference to protest against our movie," the female secretary said coquettishly.

"Ma Family? What Ma Family?"

Shouldn’t the person named Ma play Hunyuan Xingyi Tai Chi? Why come here to join in the fun of Baji Quan?

After complaining fiercely in his heart, Luo Zihang took out his mobile phone and searched online for the so-called Bajiquan family...

Actors like Luo Zihang and others who were running road shows immediately received a reminder from Hong Dakun, telling them not to pay attention to this issue.

"I can rest assured about your work," the big boss also gave Liu Xu a favor. After all, the other party had also made a lot of money for himself, so he opened a new topic: "I think we should wait for road shows in several major cities.

After it's over, we can hold a celebration banquet... It would be even better if Luo Zihang can show off his strength during this period."

Liu Xu's face suddenly showed a toothache expression...

This female secretary is not exactly a show-off. She has been with Hong Dakun for so long and has seen many operations in the entertainment industry. She is still very familiar with the method of hiring trolls to buy hot searches.

"Well, I think so too," on the other hand, his agent nodded in agreement, and added: "I will also explain to Luo Zihang and several other major actors."

Or when Liu Xu is basically hopeless due to the "Luo Zihang phenomenon", he will naturally "use the waste". Before that, Director Liu Xu was still an "indispensable general" of their company.

To be honest, it does seem a bit baffling to associate this kind of thing with an almost unrelated actor, but who makes Luo Zihang's "record" so brilliant?

A series of weird things happened in his previous crew. Who would have thought of it under normal circumstances? But it happened inexplicably like this...

Secondly, if our movie focuses on the origin and development history of Baji Quan, it would have some hype value and at least maintain its popularity. However, Baji Quan is just a minor episode in our movie, and there is no reason for us to include it in the film.

The audience's attention has shifted from the movie itself to such side details... Isn't it bad to directly hype the script modification for Luo Zihang? Why bring along these ignorant Ma family members?

"But..." After hesitating for a while, the female secretary continued to remind: "But now this topic is making a big fuss on the Internet. The speed and scale of the popularity seem to be a bit abnormal. It should be someone.

Push this forward.”

If we go into more detail, the timing is wrong, etc., but the agents have already given the main reasons - the effort is not proportional to the income, and there is absolutely no need for them to give the Ma family this heat.
To be continued...
