Let me think about it

Chapter 47 46.45.44.43.42.

The day when the Yuanfang Foundation was established was the first time Zheng Feng and Du Wei met for a long time.At this time, it has been half a month since "Red Alert" was removed from the shelves, and the box office finally ended at a risk of 7000 million, at least earning back the cost.

Everyone who has seen it said it was good-looking, saying that this is a watershed moment for Zheng Feng's acting skills, but no matter how good the praise is, it is also true that this movie will not sell at all.

High word-of-mouth and low popularity are even worse than having no word-of-mouth and no popularity, like being stuck in the air halfway, not to mention how gloomy it is.

It was the conscience of the little girl in the dressing room, who put on makeup for Zheng Feng and said: "Mr. Zheng Feng, I think you are very suitable for this kind of film. Of course, I am not cursing that your future films will not sell at the box office, but There are too few male stars taking action movies now, and the market lacks competition.”

Zheng Feng's face was black when he heard it, he didn't know whether he was praising him or trying to hurt him in a different way.

The lack of competition is so miserable, if the competition is fierce, why not just finish it?

The failure of the first attempt was really shocking, and I heard that some people now privately call him box office boss.

"Oh, what a coincidence, everyone is here." Just as he was thinking, the door of the dressing room was pushed open, and Du Weiwei walked in while talking.

She sat in front of the mirror next to Zheng Feng and poured a glass of red wine from the table.

"I'm sorry, Zheng Feng." She said, "I've been busy preparing new scripts these days, and I haven't had time to call you." Du Wei turned around and asked, "Do you want to drink? I specially asked someone to come from France brought."

"No need." Zheng Feng waved his hand, "Don't you have to cut the ribbon for the foundation's office later?"

"A little red wine won't affect anything." Du Wei shook the wine glass in her hand, took a sip, her side face was moving, she now has short shoulder-length hair cut, and a small black suit looks more neat and capable.

"Actually, I should apologize." Zheng Feng thought for a long time, but still felt that he should speak out: "I think I wasted such a good script of yours."

"It's good that you understand." Du Wei didn't raise his head, "So if I ask you to film again in the future, you will have to put in twenty times as much effort for me, and the salary will also have to be reduced."

Zheng Feng laughed, Du Wei is still in the mood to joke with him now, which means that his impression of him this time is not that bad.

"What's your new movie going to be about? Is it a cop movie?" he asked.

"Yes." Some people focus on directing only one subject, and Du Wei is obviously one of them, she frowned: "As for the actors, I'm considering a few I have worked with before, and I have to find one that I am completely satisfied with." It’s really too difficult, how about you, have you figured out a way out yet?”

Zheng Feng shook his head. He has been busy with the affairs of the foundation recently, and there are a few scattered commercials and interviews. The commercials will be aired in January next year, so the rate of appearances is very low now.

This is probably the legendary downturn in his career, but Zheng Feng's mentality is quite good.

The slump is the slump, and he even had more time to video chat with Li Yuan, and he even tried the snacks in several nearby cities one by one.

"I heard that your life is very nourishing." Du Wei praised: "Your complexion looks much better than when the shooting just ended, you are not so pale, and you look like you lack sleep all day long. "

"I can't help it. I'm the best at the box office now. How can I continue to poison the box office if I don't rest?" Zheng Feng joked.

"This is really professional, are you ready?" Du Wei said as he took out a document from his bag, "The other reason I came is to tell you that one of Mr. Li's Movie roll calls for you to audition."

"Old Li?" Zheng Feng raised his head all of a sudden.

As a big name in the director's world, Mr. Li is the dream of every young or old actor. He remembered that the old man who met once at a dinner party had the same calmness and sharpness after vicissitudes as Master Chen.The films he directed have won multiple awards at home and abroad. Previously, Mr. Li had invited him after "Green Clothes", but the other party was too famous, so frightened that Zheng Feng refused directly.

Now Mr. Li is willing to extend an olive branch to him when he can't even receive an invitation?

"Are you sure it's me?" Zheng Feng pointed to himself in surprise.

"Of course, unless there is another person named Zheng Feng in the entertainment industry." Du Wei smiled slightly, opened the first page of the document and put it in front of him: "This is a small gift from me for your foundation Well, this invitation has been formally sent to your manager Xu Zichen, I'm just here to inform you on behalf of Mr. Li."

Just as Zheng Feng was about to express his gratitude, Du Wei shook his wine glass, "Of course, I also have a request. You have to take out 20.00% of the film's salary and save it somewhere far away to buy cotton coats for the school children for the winter."

"I save 50.00%, Du Wei, thank you." Zheng Feng stood up from the chair mountain and gave her a big hug.

"You really look like my younger brother." Du Wei laughed as he held him in his arms.

"Hey, Li Yuan, it's me." Because of the good news, Zheng Feng couldn't wait to call Li Yuan after the press conference in the distance.

"Yes, Mr. Li, you don't know him. His status is similar to that of Ma Yun's father in your business world. In short, this is a rare opportunity."

"Well, I will definitely work hard." Li Yuan's voice on the phone was really nice, and the makeup artist was carefully applying makeup on Zheng Feng's face, while smiling: "Is it your girlfriend?"

"Uh... no, just a good friend..." Zheng Feng gave her a guilty look, but fortunately the other party didn't notice.

"Teacher Zheng Feng, it's almost time." Before he could say a few words, the assistant pushed open the door and signaled to him that there were a group of reporters waiting for interviews at the front desk.

"Here we come!" Zheng Feng put down his phone and hurriedly said.

Mr. Li's invitation was a surprise today. If he was really needed, they should contact the crew after the press conference and prepare for the audition.

Only after leaving for so many days can he realize that he really likes acting.

The new improvement in work made Zheng Feng impatient, "I'll hang up first, we'll talk when I have time!" Zheng Feng didn't have time to wait for Li Yuan to finish speaking, and hurried out without closing the phone.

Li Yuan on the other end of the phone listened to the chaotic movement on the other side, imagining that the other party was in a hurry, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. The secretary at the side looked at the expression of his president's rare pampering, and many pink bubbles popped up in his mind instantly. .

"As for the matter of picking up the plane tonight, should you go there yourself?"

"No, he's not coming back." Li Yuan recovered his usual expression, handed her some documents in his hand, and said calmly, "Order Shanglu to cancel that ticket."

"Ah..." There was a little regret in the female secretary's voice.

In the past, when the male artist named Zheng Feng came back, although Mr. Li didn't say anything, he always seemed to be in a much better mood.

In fact, the most important thing around him is those successful people who have a successful career, but a person who can really stay by his side like all lovers, right?

The other party sighed inwardly when he saw Li Yuan slightly bowing his head and writing.

However, what the female secretary didn't know was that at the same time, Zheng Feng was sighing deeply while flipping through the script in the car.

Because he didn't expect such a coincidence, Mr. Li's script basically wanted him to play the emperor!

The name of this movie is "Jiangshan". It tells the story of how Huo Fei, the unloved third prince of a country during the war, survived in the harem that was frightening every step of the way, ascended to the throne step by step as an adult, and finally galloped on the battlefield Life, the story of dominating the country at the end of life.

Looking at the whole story line, the country, the mountains and rivers, the bloody battlefield, and the sad love that shed tears thousands of years ago, the grand background, the many characters on the stage, and the long time span are absolutely amazing, just like a soul-stirring song. epic.

These are all things that Zheng Feng has never seen in the movies he has starred in before.

Zheng Feng didn't know where Li Lao's full affection for him came from. The considerate care and guidance during the audition made him feel a little apprehensive, and he didn't even use it afterward. It's time to play.

There is no doubt that he has already got the role of Huo Fei.

No one in the crew dared to say anything, even if they didn't like Zheng Feng, they had to serve him as the leading actor. However, there was an accident at the film conference that followed.

"Will "Jiangshan" be a commercial film?" During the questioning period, a reporter raised his hand and stood up and asked.

Old Li said in a deep voice, "Of course not."

The other party obviously came prepared and seemed to be waiting for him to say this.

Sure enough, he smiled slightly: "Then, why does "Jiangshan" choose an actor who plays a commercial film as the leading role?"

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar at the scene, and even the producer and the person in charge looked at each other.

These words were obviously too offensive and targeted. Several actors sitting together at the press conference didn't know how to answer. Almost subconsciously, everyone looked at Zheng Feng.

Suddenly becoming the protagonist of the audience, Zheng Feng never thought that one day his background in commercial films would be the reason for him to be discredited and accused. Since his popularity has not been as good as before, it seems that any trivial matter can become a reason for criticism.

"I..." Although he knew that this was the other party's purpose, Zheng Feng's lips were still a little dry.

He knew everyone was waiting for his reaction to that statement.

He is no longer the rookie at the beginning, and swallowing his anger will only make him appear cowardly. However, this is a live broadcast. If he wants to fight back without preparing a draft in advance, he can say something casually. Once he says something wrong, he will not be able to take it back. On the contrary, it fell into the hands of the other party.

Zheng Feng decided to change the subject conservatively: "I am very sorry for the previous "Red Alert"..."

The other party was obviously more experienced than him, so following this topic, he asked again: "Then do you doubt how much box office you can bring to "Jiangshan"?"

Someone stood up again: "Will it be the same as "Red Alert"? That movie was also favored by many people before."

It seems that everyone is being encouraged to ask, "I heard that your career is now focusing on the foundation, but neglecting acting?"

"What reason do you think you were able to play in "Jiangshan" and cross multiple age groups of the protagonist?"

"I..." Questioned one after another, Zheng Feng couldn't help taking a step back under the eyes.

"Zheng Feng is my apprentice."

The voice was not loud, but it carried a majesty without anger. Everyone looked along the source of the voice, and saw Mr. Chen, who was over [-] years old and dressed plainly, appeared at the press conference with a cane.

In an instant, the flashing lights flickered, and many reporters got up consciously to make way.

The old man has not appeared in the public eye since he quit the circle five years ago, but he was able to show up in person today, and the scene was suddenly filled with excitement.

"Zheng Feng." The old man's voice carried a kind of dignity without anger: "You don't need to apologize for the box office, and you don't need to apologize to this kind of reporter for accepting a new movie."

"Master Chen..." Zheng Feng's voice was a little choked up.

He felt that the old man was so real at the moment, maybe this was the side he should have in the entertainment industry.

Steady and calm, like a big tree that shelters from wind and rain.

"This movie is a project that Mr. Li and I have thought about in the early years. Now we can turn this idea into reality. I and everyone are very happy. Zheng Feng is an actor I personally selected. I know his ability. If If you continue to ask, are you also questioning my professional level?"

"Of course, there's mine." Mr. Li added in a timely manner, "Although I'm old, I can't get a few random people to tell me what to do."

"No, no..." The reporter who asked the question before suddenly sweated on his forehead, "Of course I didn't mean that..."

"Then please continue to focus on the movie itself, rather than the messy gossip." Mr. Li gave him a cold look, and said to the host beside him, "Continue with the press conference."
