The main reason why he came back in time for this trip was of course that on Chinese New Year's Eve, Peng Xiangming could not come back and wanted to stay in Yanjing to participate in the performance of the Spring Festival Gala.

But even now, he has taken the time to come back, and it is impossible for him to stay at home with his parents for too long.

The first is that the final exams of this semester are not over after all, the second is that the Spring Festival Gala is also in rehearsal, and the third is Zhao Jianyuan's graduation work "Going Home", which is being prepared.

The next day, January 10, which happened to be Sunday, Peng's father was in charge of driving, took most of the things that Peng Xiangming brought back, put them in the trunk, drove more than 100 miles, and returned to his hometown.

Peng Xiangming's grandparents and grandparents are both in the same county, only twenty or thirty miles apart.

In the morning, I went back to Peng Xiangming's grandparents' house, left half of my things and had a meal, and in the afternoon, I went to my grandparents' house and put down the remaining half of my things.

In Peng's father's words, this is basically complete.

When he returned to the city in the evening, he took the initiative to chase away the guests, "You are so busy, you have to rehearse for the Spring Festival Gala, go back tomorrow!"

So the next day, Xiao Sun drove, and he rushed back to Yanjing City.

People were still on the way, he first called Xu Jingwei, asked, and learned that the two of them had ended the promotion of "The Fourth Tenant" and returned to Yanjing, so after coming back, he just went back to his studio to open the safe and get a script, and then saddled the horse without stopping, and immediately went straight to Xu Jingwei's house.

Just one thing, let Xu Jingwei and Wu Yun help themselves roughly sum up the production cost required for the filming of "Infernal Affairs".

The script has already been written, and it has been changed a long time ago.

Of course, he has preliminarily calculated the required costs, but when it comes to film production, he is obviously not as expert as the two of them, especially Wu Yun, who is a good hand at calculating accounts and controlling costs.

As soon as he heard that Peng Xiangming was going to shoot "Dream Chaser" again, and gave up his previous idea, Xu Jingwei didn't feel anything, but when he saw half of the script, he was already in spirit.

After reading it all, he gave the script to Wu Yun, and the first sentence was: "Are you going to direct it yourself?"

"Yes!" Peng Xiangming replied firmly.

The power that refuses to be released must be made clear as soon as possible, and it is better not to let others be moved.

When Xu Jingwei heard this, he was really a little disappointed, and said again and again: "Your book, it's amazing, the two lines are very exquisite! The characters are also very good! Over the years, in the circle, there are only a handful of books of this level! And after reading this, I understand, in your MV of "Dream Chaser", there is only one line intercepted, right? This is amazing! It is estimated that as soon as your movie comes out, everyone will be surprised!"

Then he asked, "Are you going to do it yourself?"

This time Peng Xiangming shook his head, also very resolute.

He said: "I have thought about it carefully, looking at it on the computer screen and mobile phone screen, it is not a big problem for me to act, but once it is enlarged on the big screen, it doesn't matter how good the makeup is, and no matter how good my acting skills are, this sense of age is really a problem." And ......"

After a pause, he laughed, "If I act, what about the other one? The other one must not have a significant age difference with me, otherwise, it will be very inconsistent." Moreover, I still say the same thing, I really think that my acting skills are not very good, and I also think that among the domestic 20-something-year-old actors, the acting skills are good...... It's hard to find. ”

Xu Jingwei nodded slowly, "That's right." The screen of the big screen is so big, it is really something that cannot be found at all on the small screen, and it will be revealed. Your considerations are justified. Then you're just the guide?"

"No, I can play a little bit of a teenager, but that's about the same as a cameo, with limited roles. ”

Xu Jingwei nodded, "Okay! Your drama must be fine! This story is so good!"

Peng Xiangming asked, "Can you help me supervise the production?"

Xu Jingwei thought for a while, and readily agreed, "I haven't thought about what to shoot in the next drama, if you move in the first half of the year, I will go to supervise you as a producer." ”

"The first half of the year will definitely move!"

So in a few words, the two have already finalized the cooperation.

After chatting for a while about the preliminary selection of actors, Wu Yun finished reading it, and she also praised it again and again, "Good book! It's really a good book! Such a story, your fame, and the fame of "Dream Chaser" are here, I can say that as long as your lens language and editing are not too bad, it will have to start with 500 million box office!"

Xu Jingwei added, "As long as it is above the level, it is not a big problem to win 1 billion in this drama!"

After a pause, he smiled, "When I said that, I was intimidated...... I haven't directed a movie with a box office of 200 million myself, so I'll supervise it for you...... Will it work?"

Peng Xiangming laughed, "No problem!

He was very serious, "You've been busy outside, and I'm busy, I haven't had time to talk to you carefully, I think some of the explorations you have made in "The Fourth Tenant" this time are very good, be cautious in the next drama, you can consider turning to a small-budget commercial film." ”

Xu Jingwei's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he thanked him for a few words, and then nodded, and said: "I have accepted your auspicious words, and I will be the first to talk to you when I turn around! I not only want to pull your strong man, but also pull your investment...... I know you're making a lot of money, and you're definitely going to be very rich!"

With that, both of them laughed.

Peng Xiangming said: "When my film is filmed, I can make money! If I lose, I will vote for you!"

Wu Yun took over when she heard the words and said, "You can't lose it! This drama will definitely be profitable!"

After a pause, she said: "I suggest that you make this drama bigger, don't make a small fuss, actors invite big names, don't be afraid of big investment, big investment, and big impact, I still say the same thing, with the foreshadowing made by your "Dream Chaser", this is a very good IP, it has publicity points in itself, and you are very famous, and if you find a wave of big-name actors to play, it will definitely form a lot of influence at that time, and the big investment can also be earned!"

Seeing Peng Xiangming nodding frequently, Wu Yun said again: "But there is one, I suggest that you don't invest money yourself, first, the pressure is too great, and the risk is indeed there, and secondly, there are many people who are easy to do. ”

Peng Xiangming nodded again when he heard this, "I understand." ”

After a pause, he looked at Wu Yun, "So what...... How much do you think it will cost?"

Wu Yun thought about it, reopened the script, went through the scenes one by one, spent about five or six minutes, flipped the script again, and said: "Don't calculate the salary premium of individual actors, because that can't be calculated, it depends on who you want to use! Simply say that this play, if it is done at a medium cost, 80 million is enough to do it! Because the scenes are not big! If you control the cost and let me be the producer, I think you can make it with 50 million! Of course, the effect may be slightly discounted. ”

Peng Xiangming nodded.

This is very different from his own original estimate.

After all, after planning, preparing and directing two short films from beginning to end, Peng Xiangming is no longer a pure rookie no matter what he said, and he still has a little experience.

When the original film was filmed, in order to save money, it deliberately avoided all possible big scenes, but used more pen and ink to depict details and characters, which is such a well-crafted masterpiece.

After thinking about it, he asked, "Then after you start spring, are you free?"

Wu Yun's ability to be a producer, he can still trust it, this trip, even Xu Jingwei is piggybacking, the main purpose is her.

"Uh......"

Who would have thought that Wu Yun actually hesitated for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, "There really is no ......"

After a pause, she explained, "You said a few days earlier, I passed by the magic capital a few days ago and chatted with Mr. Tang, Mr. Tang heard that Jingwei didn't think about what story to shoot in the next drama for the time being, so he asked me to take a few months to help him make another drama, and I have agreed!"

Then there is no way to do this, Peng Xiangming looked helpless - Wu Yun said: "Or, I'll go back and ask who in the circle will be idle in the first half of next year and help you introduce someone to help you produce the film?"

Peng Xiangming pondered for a moment, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, he thought about it, and said: "Don't need it first, I still have a friend, it's about okay, I'll ask her first, if she doesn't have time, you can help me ask." ”

Wu Yun immediately agreed.

After a while, she suddenly said: "By the way, remember to apply to the ministry, your "Dream Chaser" has a great impact, and it is very positive, the above likes this kind of work the most, you go to apply, it is very likely that the above will give a certain amount of support." Although this money is not free, it is also a backdrop!"

Peng Xiangming was stunned when he heard this, and after careful questioning, he realized that the creation of related themes, as long as the script has been declared, the relevant themes are indeed officially supported, not much, about 10% to 20% of the production cost of the report.

This money, if you make money after the film is released, the original amount can be refunded, and people do not charge any interest, nor do you want a return on investment, just pure support. And once it loses money after the release, the debt will be directly forgiven.

This is a big bargain, of course, not just any drama can be applied for, as for whether someone will cheat support or something...... If you think about it, it's pure death!

Of course, money is still a trivial matter, the key is that as long as you get the support from there, it is almost equivalent to getting a release permit, and it will definitely be a green light all the way in the future! This is the best place!

It is equivalent to the official stamping you with a big seal, and the official endorses you!

(In the future, when dealing with this kind of thing, I can be simple and simple, don't say I'm writing blindly.) ）

Sacrifice a new book, not a friendly push, I found it myself, called "The Wizard Who Came to Cthulhu", which is more like Cthululyu recently, if you are interested, you can take a look.
