Chapter 311 Dungeon Fighter
Chapter 311 Dungeon Fighter
In the early years, Hong Kong's film industry dominated Asia.
Occasionally, a few films of particularly high quality appear, which Japanese and Korean audiences will never forget and angrily curse that the films they made in their own country are garbage.
Now the tide is turning.
Occasionally, a few Korean film and television dramas become popular and are praised by audiences on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong and Macau.
Foreign monks are good at chanting sutras, and this phenomenon is very common in the film and television industry.
"A Quiet Place" was released last year and was a huge success in the North American market, partly because it was a Hong Kong film and the plot felt particularly novel to the audience.
Fan Wumian said that South Korean stars have been particularly active recently. Han Xiaozhou thought he was complimenting him, so after thanking him, he went into the mansion and praised the house for its luxury and beauty.
The Korean won is not valuable, 1 million is only equivalent to about 50 Hong Kong dollars.
This mansion is worth more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars, which opened Han Xiaozhou's eyes. He felt reserved when sitting in the living room.
Just chatted for a few words.
Fan Wumian flipped through Han Xiaozhou's resume in front of him, pointed at one of the items and asked:
"You were a promotional model at the Korean game show last month? There was a game called "Dungeon & Fighter" that seemed to have participated in the game show. Miss Han, do you have any impression?"
Think back for a moment.
Han Xiaozhou smiled and replied:
"I remember my friend promoting this game and she played the role of a female magician. There was a little green monster in it?"
Before they came to his door, Fan Wumian had been busy looking for popular online games recently, looking for inspiration for creating the online game "Emperor of the Desolate World".
In a forum, "Dungeon & Fighter" which was released in August last year was mentioned, which instantly attracted his attention. He still remembered that this game was very popular for a while, and the news mentioned that the game equipment was very valuable.
Now "Dungeon & Fighter" is only popular in South Korea, which makes Fan Wumian smell a business opportunity to buy at a low price.
Ordinary actors need to find ways to seize opportunities. Knowing more directors, film and television company owners, and colleagues in the circle means having one more way out.
Fan Wumian already had enough beautiful female artists under his command, and he didn't want to give Han Xiaozhou a chance for nothing, so he continued:
"Yes, the green monster is called a Goblin. I can't find the contact information of the game developer on the Internet. Could you please ask the organizer of the game exhibition and give me the developer's number?"
Han Xiaozhou's agency helped arrange the meeting so that she could get to know more well-known directors in Hong Kong, hoping to make her famous and capture the markets across Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong, just like the heroine of the movie "The Myth".
After becoming famous through "Myth" and its theme song, Kim Sun-hee is making money like crazy in mainland China, receiving numerous endorsements and commercial performances.
The Korean market is too small, and artists who want to advance can only develop in neighboring countries and regions.
The topic obviously went off track.
Thinking that he could help Fan Wumian and that it would be a way to deepen their relationship, Han Xiaozhou nodded and said:
"Of course, but my assistant ate too much meat last night and is in the hospital. I don't have the contact information. I'll tell you when I get the number?"
".good."
Fan Wumian pointed at her business card and said:
"I'll send you a text message later. Contact me if you have any news. If you can't find it, forget it. I can send someone to South Korea."
The female employee of ATV, whose English level was higher than both of them, said to Han Xiaozhou with envy:
"You can't just treat Mr. Fan as a star. He is a wealthy man with a net worth of over $200 million. He is very popular throughout Asia and has a lot of business under his control. Remember to get in touch with him more often. If you are given a few roles, you won't have to worry about being in South Korea. All our ATV actors want to switch jobs and work with Mr. Fan."
Han Xiaozhou also said after listening:
"I remember the media mentioned that TVXQ is very popular in Southeast Asia and island countries, but fans in Hong Kong and Taiwan prefer your songs. The recently released album "That Girl" is really great, and I like all the songs in it."
Fan Wumian said politely:
"You have a good image, suitable for playing the heroine in some love scenes."
He has seen many beautiful artistes, so he was just being polite.
Han Xiaozhou thought he had a chance to get the role from Fan Wumian, and smiled brightly:
"Thank you! The company has positioned me mainly for romantic works. Both urban and ancient costume images are more suitable for me."
He nodded.
I thought that if I wanted to invest in a harem drama and need some foreign concubines, I could let Han Xiaozhou give it a try.
In addition, the heroine does not speak the same language as the others and their lip movements cannot match, so there will be a lot of troubles during the filming.
Just a visit.
Fan Wumian saw them off, ate lunch and took a nap. When he woke up, he saw a text message on his phone that read
——"NEOPLE Company, number 010-6786-8903"
There was also a text message below, Han Xiaozhou wrote in English
——"Nice to meet you. I was so nervous that I forgot to ask for your autograph. Many of my colleagues in the company are your fans."
I heard that Korean actors will undergo professional training from the company before their debut. There are detailed regulations on everything from facial expression management to how to socialize and how to answer questions. They are good at packaging ordinary people into stars.
Fan Wumian wasn't sure if it was still so strict and harsh in 2006. He just asked her to help find a number, so it couldn't be said that he owed her a favor.
So he just replied "haha", forgot about the matter and asked Jiang Shixi to help investigate this Korean NEOPLE game company.
After selecting a few games, Fan Wumian wasn't sure how much profit he could make, so he handed them over to Penguin Group for distribution. He didn't feel bad at all.
However, "Dungeon & Fighter" is different. This game has been popular for a long time and has the potential to bring in sufficient cash flow. He plans to take action himself and spend money to acquire the entire game.
After I finished calling Jiang Shixi, I could hear the confusion in his tone.
Fan Wumian finally realized that he could handle the small-scale business by himself. It seemed that it was time to set up a company to take care of the trivial matters of the business. Whether it was the development of the Shencheng Bay land, or the Silicon Valley Youtube, Tudou, online games and other projects, it was impossible to handle them without some professional management personnel.
You can also take advantage of the restructuring and integration to seek help from professionals to consider how to further avoid taxes legally.
He thought of acquiring "Dungeon & Fighter" on his own, and then thought about how to develop the online games "Emperor of the Wilderness" and "Wulin Wai Zhuan".
Fan Wumian is a complete layman. The more he thinks about it, the more he feels that he lacks talent.
------------
Yanjing.
Ever since receiving a call from Fan Wumian a few days ago, Xiao Yang has been in a state of great confusion.
He had no idea what he was going to shoot, nor how to prepare.
Worried about screwing up and "falling out of favor" with his boss, Xiao Yang practiced being honest yet servile, while spending money to learn how to give massages, tell fortunes, drive a taxi, etc.
Until May 1th.
Xiao Yang finally received a notice from his agent. He packed up his things and caught a plane. He then went to the hotel in Shenzhen and met up with other crew members.
The crew is very small, with a total of about a dozen people, who are responsible for lighting, recording, videography, makeup and other work. Although small, it has all the necessary functions.
The first thing Xiao Yang asked when he saw them:
"Brother, please ask where the screenwriter is? Does anyone know what kind of drama we are going to shoot?"
The fat male screenwriter raised his hand and replied in surprise:
"I'm the screenwriter, transferred from the crew of 'Wulin Wai Zhuan'. This drama is amazing. Even the leading actor doesn't know what to shoot."
".I really don't know, maybe Mr. Fan has other plans."
Xiao Yang was completely confused.
Upon learning that Fan Wumian had not yet joined the crew, Xiao Yang thought that he should get along well with the crew members, so he specially found a restaurant to set up two tables and treated everyone to a Chaoshan meal.
Fan Wumian has passed the customs and arrived in Shencheng.
The reason why he didn't meet with the crew was because he was helping Feng Ying'er move and discussing purchasing some items.
Feng Ying'er bought the fully-decorated villa located on Chunshuiwan for RMB 2120 million, with a down payment of %.
The property certificate shows an area of more than 400 square meters, but the actual usable area is more than 1,000 square meters, in addition to a 1,000-square-meter yard, an outdoor swimming pool, a wine cellar, a private cinema, a private gym, and a special chess and card room for playing cards and mahjong.
Feng Ying'er's parents and family have settled in Australia, so it doesn't matter to her whether they live in Hong Kong or Shenzhen.
She originally came to view the house with a picky mindset, but she fell in love with the house instantly after seeing it.
The title of the drama "Diaosi Man" was changed by Fan Wumian to "Waste Man" because the word "Diaosi" will take several years to become popular, and it is not appropriate to use it now.
Moreover, Tudou.com is ambitious in launching a short drama, so it is inevitable that it will attract attention. There is no need to cause controversy because of the title of the drama.
There happened to be an opportunity.
This time, Feng Ying'er will guest-star in "The Useless Man" with several "Otaku Goddesses" including Liu Yan, Yao Xingtong, and Zhou Weitong.
Zhuang Muxi, Liu Shishi, Yang Mi and others will also come to guest star.
In addition to these girls, Fan Wumian also personally called people like Huang Bo, Wang Baoqiang, Xu Zheng and others.
now.
In Feng Ying'er's new home, he personally called the agent of Japanese actress Aoi Aoi, and planned to be as vulgar as the original drama "The Loser Boy".
When Fan Wumian asked if there was a schedule.
Aoi's agent replied in fluent English with a strong accent:
"As long as the price is right, we can also go to Hong Kong to shoot after reporting to the contract company."
"How many people will there be? What kind of scene will it be? Will there be mosaics? Different projects have different prices. I will send the detailed charges to your email later. Many projects require additional fees."
"If it's just a normal one-on-one scene, and it only takes one day, it would cost about 100 million yen, and you would reimburse the airfare, food and lodging. Is that okay?"
Thinking that he could get one-on-one lessons from Teacher Aoi for only a few hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars, Fan Wumian swallowed his saliva.
It's not that I'm moved.
It's nothing more than a huge imagination and a subconscious reaction.
He quickly said:
"You misunderstood. It's just a short online drama. The kind with clothes on."
On the other end of the phone.
Aoi's agent replied:
"Ah, really? Someone actually asked her to act in a normal work? Is she going to attend a business reception after filming, or is she in the movie..."
".Not necessary!"
"Then please wait a moment. Ms. Aoi has never taken a normal role. I don't know how to quote the price. I need to discuss it with her and the company."
"..."
