Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore Chapter 675: Victory Celebration Banquet, Director Zhuang Di

At the celebration banquet, Xiao He was completely bewildered when Yuan Sitong dragged him to read the comnts.

It was the celebration banquet for the second season of "Yu Ye". After a few rounds of drinks, everyone started to talk about other things. The leading producers and investors were chatting enthusiastically with Zhuang Hongyi and the two directors of "Yu Ye" at other tables, while the actors sat together and chatted casually.

It just so happens that Xiao He's movie "Mistaken Identity" has been in a state of high-intensity marketing recently, and everyone has paid so attention to the situation, so the conversation naturally shifted to Xiao He.

Then Yuan Sitong beca like this, laughing nonstop.

"Hahaha, hurry up, hurry up, look at this again—if I could see Xiao He's face as soon as I woke up, all my bad temper would disappear... Hehehe, they are so cute! I think if there is another event next ti, we can play Truth or Dare, and then everyone can challenge themselves to read their own fans' comnts."

While looking at her phone, Yuan Sitong couldn't help but make the suggestion.

Guo Xinya, who was eating nearby, looked up and seed quite interested: "We can consider it next ti the crew has an event. We can even shoot so behind-the-scenes footage as promotion for the third season."

Although Director Zhuang hasn't revealed any information about the third season yet, everyone knows that they will definitely see each other again in the third season.

"Hehe, sure, sure." Yuan Sitong seed to have thought of sothing fun, winking at Guo Xinya, "Then I'll have Director Yan read out the death knell of private ssages from fans urging him to update, and Xinya, you read out the ssages Director Yan left for you, and then that guy over there, he won't bully you, you just read out our Chinese tongue twisters—"

Yuan Sitong rattled off a long explanation, clearly outlining the arrangents for everyone present.

Guo Xinya hesitated, Li Haoxuan rolled his eyes, and Xiao He was speechless: "Hey, you haven't even started the ga yet, and you're already making wishes."

And this guy didn't plan any major adventures for himself at all!

Good heavens, that's really good heavens.

"No, no, that's not the point."

Yuan Sitong wiped away the tears of laughter, then easily swiped her finger, and the phone screen instantly jumped to a Bilibili page that Xiao He was familiar with.

"Hey, have you seen Tiger's account?"

Yuan Sitong then shifted the topic back to this, "Have you seen the video of him cursing Ren Yibai? He's so good at talking, I laugh every ti I watch it. I used to dislike Zhao Qinyuan, but I heard he's fighting with Ren Yibai right now, so I'm actually on his side..."

Xiao He recognized the old acquaintance and couldn't help but twitch his lips, asking, "You watch Tiger Brother too?"

He also thought that many people in the industry wouldn't watch the吐槽 (tu cao, aning to roast or criticize) videos of吐槽 bloggers.

Upon hearing Xiao He's question, Yuan Sitong imdiately replied confidently, "Yes, I watch them all, except for my own episode."

This hobby should not be taken away so easily.

Xiao He chuckled.

That's good, he really has nothing to say.

"Xiao He—"

Just then, Zhuang Hongyi called out to Xiao He.

"Excuse , I must take my leave now."

Xiao He imdiately got up and went to Zhuang Hongyi's table.

The bigwigs at the table were still having a lively discussion, and they didn't stop talking when they saw Xiao He, who had just joined them, but they still greeted him one after another.

Xiao He had t many of them before, so he responded to them familiarly and sat down next to Zhuang Hongyi.

"However, this project is still very risky right now, let's discuss it later."

One of them stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray and shook his head slightly. Although the words were phrased tactfully, they were essentially a refusal.

"I think it's best to avoid this stuff if possible. Mr. Zhuang should be cautious."

The other person also put down his lit cigarette, shook his head helplessly, and looked at Zhuang Hongyi as if he were looking at a junior who had suddenly beco ignorant.

That's normal, though. When these people cooperate with Zhuang Hongyi, their primary concern is the money. If there are risks involved in the investnt, they tend to remain neutral.

Only Zhuang Hongyi's smile remained unchanged. He raised his glass and said apologetically, "Actually, I had already contacted people in Hong Kong before. Although the project has not been fully finalized, the requirents are not high, and we should be able to take it all at once. However, when it is transferred back to the dostic cinemas, we may need the help of you bosses. I hope you bosses will give us more opportunities."

"Hey, I was wondering why this kid suddenly brought up this kind of thing. Turns out he'd already made arrangents with soone."

The middle-aged man sitting in the main seat laughed heartily, and the others followed suit.

Xiao He naturally wouldn't join in teasing Zhuang Hongyi, so he just smiled and sat quietly to the side, listening to everyone's conversation.

After a few rounds of drinks, he roughly understood the situation.

As Sister Liu had predicted, Zhuang Hongyi's next project was indeed a rather complex new project. Moreover, the big investors here were not very optimistic about it, so Zhuang Hongyi had already found a partner in Hong Kong and ca to Beijing in advance to discuss the future release of the film.

Normally, if a movie wants to be released in Beijing or even nationwide, there's no need to go to such lengths and discuss it so far in advance. Once the project is approved and filming proceeds normally, then we can discuss release approvals and theater distribution issues.

But judging from Director Zhuang's situation, it seems that the issue of the film's release needs to be resolved first?

Isn't this putting the cart before the horse?

Xiao He pondered for a mont, then suddenly understood.

This isn't about the film's ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) release; it's a subtle hint about whether the project will pass censorship!

After all, Director Zhuang said that he was in talks with the Hong Kong authorities, but they hadn't reached a complete agreent yet. Why? Well, it's because of the current issue of censorship!

It's certain that the subject matter of this project is sowhat sensitive and involves certain issues, making it difficult to be released in China. This has caused people there to hesitate, so Director Zhuang had to co back and ask the bigwigs in Beijing for help in finding a way and pulling so strings.

So what he just said was ostensibly about the film's release, but actually he was asking for the project to pass censorship.

After Xiao He realized what was going on, he imdiately started thinking about another question—what exactly was Director Zhuang planning to film in his new project?

He had previously thought that Director Zhuang wanted to collaborate with Hong Kong to make a police and cri blockbuster, with an intense and exciting gunfight, but now it seems that it is not quite what he imagined... No matter how much the big shots are not optimistic, they should not withdraw so easily. After all, although police and cri films are not easy to pass, they can definitely be made.

But besides that, what else can be fild in Hong Kong?

Several ideas flashed through Xiao He's mind, but he rejected them all.

No, that's not right. Given Director Zhuang's businessman's mind and capitalist personality, he should be preparing to make comrcial films that are easier to make at the box office.

So it's still an action movie? Or a suspense movie?

It can't be a cody from over there, can it?

...However, what Xiao He didn't know was that people sotis have preconceived notions.

Zhuang Hongyi is not only a businessman, capitalist, and director.

He's still a sowhat hot-blooded, immature guy.

—On a whim, I really wanted to make so different kinds of work.
