Volume 1 New Anchor Chapter 163 Cooperation
"Ka!" Qiu Ze shouted with his eyes fixed on the screen and a walkie-talkie in his hand.
After shouting, he turned his head, there seemed to be a little smug in his eyes, and asked Zhang Xiaofeng, "What's the matter?"
Zhang Xiaofeng smiled.
"That's it. β
Qiu Ze's smile also instantly froze on his face, with a bit of strong dissatisfaction in his eyes.
"Can you compliment me?"
seemed to notice that there was a bit of coquettishness in his words, Qiu Ze, Qiu Dazhinan's face was a little unbearable, and he hurriedly made up for it: "I heard that when I was filming An's house, Lu An made you boast to the sky." β
"Nothing. Zhang Xiaofeng still said lightly.
These few sentences of dialogue seem to have become the daily routine of the two.
In fact, Zhang Xiaofeng's expectations for this movie are indeed very high, even higher than An Jia.
Because Qiu Ze does have this strength, and the script written by Qiu Ze himself is indeed stronger than all aspects of going home.
Whether it's literary or logical, or readable and suspenseful, or even the core of the movie, it's really impeccable.
But Zhang Xiaofeng also knows it.
No matter how good this movie is, it is almost impossible to surpass An Jia at the box office.
Because going home is an explosive product that has been suppressed for a long time.
It was the people who watched too many bad movies, and by chance a well-made domestic film appeared, and everyone subconsciously chose to watch the movie with revenge, which created the results of going home.
"Dong Zhang, go back to the company, someone is looking for you. β
Zhang Xiaofeng looked at the message on WeChat and frowned.
The news was sent by Chen Dong, and if he can go back to see him, it shows that the other party's origin must be not small.
"I'll go back first, it's a bit of a problem. Zhang Xiaofeng greeted Qiu Ze.
"Done. Qiu Ze said briskly, and then turned around and went about his own business.
Zhang Xiaofeng left the set and drove back to Fengrui directly.
Entering the office, Zhang Xiaofeng saw a foreign man sitting across from his desk, leisurely drinking tea.
Looking at the side face, Zhang Xiaofeng was a little puzzled.
He didn't know this man.
"Are you looking for me?" Zhang Xiaofeng walked over, looked at the other party's face, and asked suspiciously.
When the man saw Zhang Xiaofeng, he immediately stood up enthusiastically, stretched out his hand, and shook hands with Zhang Xiaofeng.
"Hello, you are Zhang Xiaofeng, the chairman of Fengrui, right?"
"It's me. Zhang Xiaofeng sat down and looked at the man.
"I have admired the name for a long time, I am the American director Tiles, I came uninvited, and I hope Zhang Dong will forgive me. β
Listening to the other party speaking fluent Chinese, and even with a hint of Beijing accent, Zhang Xiaofeng also felt a little interesting in his heart.
Listening to the name, Zhang Xiaofeng remembered that Qiu Ze had told him about it, Tiles wanted to cooperate with them, and listening to him, the director in front of him still has a certain status in the United States.
"Speaking seriously, Director Tilce is here to talk about cooperation this time, right?"
Tiles smiled and nodded.
"To tell you the truth, I've been in China for a long time, and
I know three generations of Chinese directors, and I like Chinese culture. β
"I started to pay attention to you from your last movie, and I heard some gossip that you were already preparing for the second part, so I contacted Director Qiu Ze, read the script, liked it very much, and started to cooperate. β
When Tiles chatted with Zhang Xiaofeng, he didn't have the slightest arrogance, nor did he despise Zhang Xiaofeng because he was young.
This will indeed make Zhang Xiaofeng's first impression of him a little better.
"Yes. Zhang Xiaofeng smiled and nodded at Tilles.
This is indeed what Qiu Ze meant.
The last time he chatted, Zhang Xiaofeng asked him for his opinion, and even if he agreed, and in his words, he really admired this director of Tiles.
And Zhang Xiaofeng wants to uphold the principle that you respect me and I respect you, so he is quite polite to this director.
Hearing this, Tiles smiled happily, stretched out his hand to Zhang Xiaofeng again, and said: Happy cooperation. β
Zhang Xiaofeng did not hesitate, shook hands with him, and took the director directly to Qiu Ze's set.
Seeing Tiles and Zhang Xiaofeng coming over together, Qiu Ze instantly greeted him.
"Director Tilles, meet again. Qiu Ze said to Tiles with a smile, and there was no hint of underbeating when he talked to Zhang Xiaofeng before.
Tilles smiled and hugged him.
"How do directors want to work together?" asked Zhang Xiaofeng.
The three of them sat under the director's umbrella, and the air was a little stuffy.
"Yes, this is the script I brought, and I changed it slightly, otherwise there are some things in it that Westerners may not understand, but it will not destroy the integrity and core of the whole work. β
Qiu Ze took the script and briefly read it for a while.
After a moment, he looked up and nodded at the two.
"Well, yes, the changes don't affect anything. β
"In a few days, my team came back from the United States, and we worked together to shoot and carefully pick out some details and content. β
"As for the release in the United States, the final director's signature may have to be signed by my name, otherwise the release in the United States may be blocked. β
"It's not a problem, but there can't be any Americans in the movie, it's a reflection of the current state of Chinese society, and it would be a bit nondescript to include some foreigners. Qiu Ze said.
Tilles nodded as well.
"Yes, I think so too, so don't worry, I won't add actors to the movie. β
When Qiu Ze and Zhang Xiaofeng heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then how does Director Tiles want to distribute the profits?" Zhang Xiaofeng then asked.
Tiles had apparently thought about it a long time ago.
"This is our first cooperation, and I have thought about this question for a long time, so I don't want the box office of movies in China, I only participate in the box office share of countries outside China, Yicheng, how about it?"
One percent, in fact, is already quite a lot.
But Tilles is indeed worth the price, because if the other party is Ben money
come, if you go to China to shoot a film, you can receive an investment of hundreds of millions.
And now it is completely unknown whether the movie can be sold abroad.
As Tilles, to be able to say so, he did make a big concession, and secondly, it also gave Zhang Xiaofeng and Qiu Ze a reassurance.
Weighing the pros and cons, Zhang Xiaofeng and the three of them immediately made a decision.
Zhang Xiaofeng sent a message to the company's in-house counsel, and within half an hour, someone drove the contract over.
Tiles signed without hesitation, and this move really doubled the favor of Zhang Xiaofeng and the others.
Because that's trust.
The two also signed a contract.
"Okay, then I'll go back first, and when my team comes in a few days, I'll bring them here directly. Tiles exchanged a few pleasantries with the two of them, then stood up to say goodbye.
Zhang Xiaofeng nodded with a smile, stood up, and sent Tiles to the car.
Tiles also came by car, in a camouflage off-road.
Taken away from him, Qiu Ze stomped directly on the ground.
βyes!β
"I was calm just now, wasn't I?
Zhang Xiaofeng looked at this somewhat sick person, sighed deeply, and turned around and walked towards the set.
Filming has been in full swing.
Zhang Xiaofeng also noticed a few good actors in these scenes.
But Zhang Xiaofeng didn't plan to sign at all, at least not yet.
In his opinion, signing actors is indeed a very important thing for the current Fengrui.
Because Fengrui is currently on the cusp.
Therefore, the actor Zhang Xiaofeng is looking for, in addition to good acting skills, his character also has to pass.
Otherwise, if you sign it back, there will be some trouble at both ends in three days, and Feng Rui doesn't have to do anything, just deal with problems around the actors all day long.
So it's really a matter of no sloppiness.
Zhang Xiaofeng has also been following Qiu Ze's group in the past few days, and he didn't say anything, just watched silently from the sidelines.
originally wanted to run to Zhang Xiaofeng, but all the stars who were close to the set were warned by Qiu Ze.
Of course, it was also Zhang Xiaofeng.
He asked Qiu Ze to throw down a sentence: "If the play is good, I will go to you, if the play is not good, it is useless to look for me again." β
Sure enough, since then, the atmosphere of the crew has indeed improved a lot, and the people who came to annoy Zhang Xiaofeng have finally stopped.
It's too hot today, but for the needs of the plot, the protagonist has to wrap in a big padded jacket, and after a while, all the clothes on his body have been soaked through sweat.
Zhang Xiaofeng sighed, took out his mobile phone and ordered herbal tea for the whole crew.
This drama is expected to take four months, plus all kinds of post-production and the like, and when it is released, it will have to be next year.
Zhang Xiaofeng swiped his mobile phone, and the actors in the crew who had no drama also sat on the side drinking milk tea, and several people were talking to each other on the side.
Although the protagonist of this drama is also a student of the film school, he has already filmed a lot of scenes with many groups at a young age.
And it is also very popular.
Besides, he is really handsome, and many directors love to use him to act, saying that this kid naturally has a movie face.
And Zhang Xiaofeng found that he was indeed not afraid of hardship.
Since doing this business, Zhang Xiaofeng has also heard a lot of voices.
What kind of fresh meat has a cut on his finger, and the strike is gone, and the face is full of pox, and the strike is gone.
This one in front of me is indeed quite stable.
And it seems that the temperament is also a little boring, which is a little different from the image created on TV.
Zhang Xiaofeng heard from Qiu Ze that his name was Gu Ran.
When filming, he filmed seriously, and after filming, he either found a corner to read the script by himself, or swiped his mobile phone, and it was rare to see him chatting with others.
Zhang Xiaofeng thought about it and walked over.
"How do you feel?" Zhang Xiaofeng asked with a smile as he sat down on a chair beside him.
Seeing Zhang Xiaofeng take the initiative to greet him, Gu Ran was stunned, and then nodded with a smile.
"Am there anything I'm doing wrong?"
Zhang Xiaofeng was a little surprised when he heard this, turned his head and asked, "Why do you think so?"
Gu Ran scratched his head a little embarrassed.
"I didn't expect you to come and say hello to me out of the blue, I thought I was doing something wrong. β
Zhang Xiaofeng shook his head.
"At your age, you have filmed so many scenes, and your temperament can be so calm, I'm very curious. β
Gu Ran smiled and said, "My parents are both theater actors, and they may be a little strict with me, so I may not be very willing to communicate with others." β
Zhang Xiaofeng nodded.
"Work hard, what you are missing now is experience, and when you graduate, you will really enter the society and experience the life of ordinary people more. β
"Actually, I don't know much about this, but I think that an actor, since he wants others to believe in his role, then he has to believe in himself, but the living conditions of actors are so good now, they can't understand what normal life is like, how can they act well?"
Gu Ran nodded sympathetically.
"My mother once acted in a play, and for that drama, she went to live in the countryside for more than half a year, and she told me the same thing. β
Zhang Xiaofeng smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
After all, I didn't say anything about signing a contract.
There was no disappointment in Gu Ran's eyes.
As he said, his parents were very strict with him, which may have created some unconfidence in his character, and he didn't even think that Zhang Xiaofeng would sign a contract with him.
"I watched Anjia, Wang Teng and Wang Ya are really powerful. Gu Ran suddenly said to Zhang Xiaofeng.
"We are classmates, in the same class, and the last time you went to the interview, I happened to be filming outside, and I couldn't catch up. β
Zhang Xiaofeng nodded with some surprise.
"You're no worse than them. β
Gu Ran was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly.
"No, I'm much worse than them, and the two of them are the only classmates I don't want to meet during the interview because they're so strong. β
Looking at the admiration in the young man's eyes, Zhang Xiaofeng smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"Then one day you think you're the same as them, I'll sign your ......"
