Chapter 193: The Tiger Doesn't Threaten, Are You and Me an Orange Cat? (Ask for a subscription and ask for a monthly pass!)
Wu Peng can't run.
You still want to run away when you get on my Li Shixin's thief ship?
Heh, heh!
After calming Wu Peng's emotions in a few words, Li Shixin set up a shooting plan with Wu Peng.
The "Mobei" series has just been filmed, and the structure of the film crew is still there. As for some corner positions, they can be found casually here in the Desert Film and Television City, and it can be said that there are. The salary is sufficient, and it is not a joke for the crew of a micro-film to save up in one morning.
The props of period dramas are also easy to get, Li Shixin doesn't want to impact any domestic and foreign awards, he just wants popularity, the standards of props and costumes can be appropriately relaxed, and they can be rented here in Desert Film and Television City, so that Zhang Ying and Li Xiaomeng can change it.
The only thing that is more difficult about this drama is the problem of framing.
The reason why the Linxia Ancient City Film and Television Base can't beat Rongdian is because it is too restrictive.
In addition to the desert, the exterior part is the sand forest, which has its own advantages compared with the Rongdian with a variety of surrounding environments, but the disadvantages are greater.
And in terms of interior view, it is far worse than the Rong store.
It's not that you can't shoot period dramas, but the cost of all aspects is relatively high. In the past two years, Linxia has also realized the shackles of this development, and has built several multi-climate and landform studios of tens of thousands of square meters in the film and television base.
Indoors, lighting and modern technology are combined to create a simulated terrain and climate environment.
But it's more expensive.
Renting such a place, one day's rent and equipment costs are calculated as the cost of twenty or thirty thousand.
For example, the border scene in Li Shixin's script, it's not that he doesn't want the whole crew to go to Guangxi to shoot, so he can only shoot in a large studio in the desert film and television base.
However, the main shooting environment in the script of "Yan Baoxia" is still in rural Gansu, and it needs to be filmed near the desert, so it is not possible to return to Rongdian.
But for the other part, whether the entire crew goes to Guangxi for real-time shooting, or uses a studio at the base of the ancient city of the desert, the cost will be very high.
Li Shixin calculated the funds in his hand, the copyright fee of the "Mobei" series has not yet arrived, and there is only the income of the advertising film "Return Date" in the account, as well as the prize money of 150,000 yuan for participating in the short video popularity contest this time.
All together, there are roughly two million.
It's enough to start, but I don't know if I can make it to the end.
Thinking that there was still a salary for the advertising company for the "Desert" series of commercials that had not been settled, Li Shixin gritted his teeth.
Isn't it all about money?
As long as people can stand up, what kind of bastard is money?
Dry!
In this way, in Li Shixin's gritted teeth, the shooting schedule was made.
After the plan was set, Wu Peng reported to the company overnight to gather the team. Li Shixin took the first draft of the script back, made further revisions, and turned it into a script that could be directly used for on-site shooting.
And just when Li Shixin set off again with the film crew to prepare for "Yan Baoxia", a conflict was intensifying in a mansion in Linxia City.
......
After listening to the agent relay the news that Linxia Ancient City Culture refused to pay the opening ceremony appearance fee, Xu Ge blew up on the spot!
"Lao Tzu came all the way from the capital, specifically for their opening ceremony, because of their own performance accident, which caused my show to not be staged, and now they are beating me upside down, saying that I refuse to go on stage?
In a fit of rage, Xu Ge gave the sandbag in front of him a kick!
You tell me about the culture of the ancient city, Lao Tzu is not short of this million, but the words are here, this time, the appearance fee is not one point short of Lao Tzu!"
Seeing Xu Ge in the fitness room wearing boxing gloves, crackling the sandbag and making a burst of noise, the agent looked bitter.
Xu Ge appeared at the Linxia Ancient City Cultural Festival this time, and he made a popular finale appearance, but in fact, it was not Linxia Ancient City Culture that came to the door.
Rather, the broker is specially contacted through relationships.
Xu Ge is famous, this is true.
But the situation in the past two years has not been very good.
First of all, Xu Ge was injured in a previous movie due to an accident on the set, which caused the filming period to be delayed from the original one year to two and a half years.
Actually, it wasn't anything.
But during this time, because of some things that happened during the recuperation period, Xu Ge disappeared in front of the public for more than half a year. led to a significant drop in popularity, and in the end, the box office after the release of the movie was far less than expected.
In terms of box office appeal, Xu Ge has been out of the peak.
It's not fatal.
The fatal thing is that after feeling the career crisis, Xu Ge, who saw a lot of celebrities playing cross-border director, joined hands with the company's operation team to do a big thing.
What's the big deal?
Relying on the connections accumulated by Xu Ge over the years since his debut, he himself pulled more than 100 million yuan from the owner, and with part of the company's support, he directed and acted in the costume action movie "Peak Pass".
Outcome......
This movie was made with a total investment of 180 million yuan. It has been released for three weeks now, and it has begun to be broadcast in major theaters across the country.
The reason why it is off the air is because from the release to the present, the total box office is only more than 80 million.
Not to mention the blood compensation, because the previous publicity resources were too invested and the movie was praised too high, the result was that after the release, it seriously did not meet the audience's psychological expectations, and the reputation was extremely poor.
has become the biggest joke in the circle this year.
It is said that several bigwigs of the capital were so angry that they shaved their heads and vowed to explode on the spot if they stood up again in the future.
Therefore, Xu Ge's current situation is very embarrassing.
This time the ancient city cultural festival, the agent just wants to use this cultural festival and the exposure of the fighter's short video platform to attract him a wave of attention among the younger generation of netizens.
It didn't work out,
also came out of Li Shixin's file.
Looking at Xu Ge, who was angry, agent Wang Fan sighed, "Xu Ge, no matter what, you yourself violated the director's arrangement and refused to go on stage." I think it's better not to make a big deal about this matter. After all, Linxia is official, and it fell out with them...... In your current state, you're definitely more passive. β
Boom!
Xu Ge slammed his fist on the sandbag, listening to the heaviness of the agent's words, he frowned: "Brother Wang, what do you mean?"
"There is some news from the company, saying that it is ...... Your contract is being considered. You...... Be mentally prepared. In case, I said in case. If the company terminates the contract with you, or wants to lower your contract......"
Hearing the agent's words, Xu Ge was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.
He withdrew his fist from the sandbag and pointed to his shirtless, muscular upper body.
"What do you mean? Lao Tzu signed a company at the age of twenty, and he has been punching and kicking for thirteen years, and now Lao Tzu can't do two films, so he has to unload the mill and kill the donkey?"
Faced with his questioning, the agent shook his head helplessly.
"Xu Ge, be realistic. This circle is not a place for friendship. β
"Okay!"
Xu Ge roared, raised his fists in excitement, and waved it as if there was the company's boss standing in front of him.
After venting his anger, he panted and said: "Don't talk about friendship, right? Okay! It's really Lao Tzu at the end of his rope, right? I Xu Ge will put it here for you, not in Kunpeng Film and Television, Lao Tzu can do the same! Don't think that Lao Tzu is finished, Lao Tzu is only thirty-four, Lao Tzu can still fight!"
Looking at Xu Ge, who had lost his composure, the agent sighed and shook his head, turned around and walked out of the fitness room.
Hearing a burst of echoing footsteps in the corridor, Xu Ge smiled miserably and sat down on the ground dejectedly.
Looking at the centipede-like wound on his knee, he seemed to feel the chill coming from the eight steel nails inside.
After more than ten years of fighting, I am injured, can I still fight?
Yes.
Can you play the moves and speed of a twenty-year-old?
Joke.
On the walls of the fitness room, there is a whole wall of art photos and movie posters.
Without exception, it's all his own.
From "The King of Fighters", which was still a little young when he first debuted, to "Lonely City" at the peak of popularity...... Thinking of his current self again, Xu Ge tightened his back molars fiercely.
Action stars are similar to athletes, the waves are sweeping the sand, and a generation of newcomers is replacing the old.
Riding the dragon, Lian Jie's martial arts evergreens are there throughout the movie?
Just then, a prompt came from his phone.
took off his gloves and picked them up, Xu Ge's eyes widened instantly.
On the screen of the mobile phone, there is an official push of the fighter.
"@εζηΎηΊ¦θΊδΊΊζδΈδΏ‘ζΊζ the original team of "Mobei" set off again, and just released the news that the new work has begun to be filmed. β
"!"
opened the push and saw Li Shixin's old face, Xu Ge slapped his phone on the carpet.
Thinking of the scene when Li Shixin was in the limelight at the opening ceremony of the previous cultural festival, and then thinking of the ancient city culture that looked down on himself, the ruthlessness of the company, and the indifference when the agent left.
Huge frustration came over like a tidal wave.
In an instant, a nameless fire arose!
Sitting on the ground for I don't know how long, Xu Ge gritted his teeth.
Picked up the phone and broadcast a call.
"Hey, Meng Dashao, do you have time to talk?"
"Didn't you say that I should consider cooperating with Huaqi after the contract expires, I think Huaqi's current resources are good. β
"It doesn't matter what the conditions are, I know what I'm in right now. Give an A signature to ensure resources. β
"Yes, but I have one condition. β
"Li Shixin, the signed artist of your company, I don't know if Meng Dashao has any impressions. β
"What's wrong with him? It's so unruly...... To be honest, I'm upset. β
"Okay, then I'll see what Meng Dashao does. β
"Waiting for your news!"
......
Putting down the phone, Xu Ge looked at Li Shixin's old face on the phone.
"NND, Lao Tzu can't beat Linxia Culture, and he can't beat you bad old man?
Squinting his eyes, imagining the scene of that hateful old guy being suppressed by the company and the general manager pressed to the ground and ravaged, Xu Ge spread his arms and lay down on his back.
A kind of comfort of being a superstar, flowing through the whole body.
