Chapter 281: The identity of the entertainment industry

After Ye Ming finished shooting the last shot, after leaving, Li Yu glanced at the direction where Ye Ming disappeared and said, "This guy is not a peaceful person." ”

As a director, I like those who are obedient, so a not-so-obedient actor like Ye Ming is not very liked by the director.

However, it is said that Ye Ming is a very capable actor, and sometimes he has a flash of inspiration, which really makes Li Yu admire, like Zhang Ziyi riding a person, such ideas can be thought of, which proves that Ye Ming is always very attentive to making movies.

Zhou Yan stood aside with a smile and said: "Restless people can have great achievements, Cheng Long, Zhou Xingchi, which one is the person who is safe, and Andy, this guy obviously said that he was not a business material, but he said that he was going to do business and make movies, and he was hit on the head and bled out." Ye Ming is also such a person, the cinema chain, even if the government allows foreign capital to enter, but is that something that ordinary people can afford? However, our film industry does need such restless people.

However, Ye Ming, this guy, can't be said to be completely disobedient, just that he has his own insistence, you said that you didn't let him take over other movies and TV before filming [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon], didn't he agree the same, and did a very good job, can endure loneliness, enjoy glory, such a person can mix in the entertainment industry. Li Yuxiao took out a book and sent it over and said: "This guy, although he said that he didn't take any movies and television, but he was not idle in the middle, you can take a look at this book, it's quite a good book." ”

Zhou Yan took the book curiously, [Those Things in the Ming Dynasty] Where is it now.

At the moment, he said suspiciously: "You still read this kind of book, it doesn't seem to match your style very well, I thought you read all kinds of books on film theory, philosophy or something?"

Li Yan smiled and said, "Because this book was recommended to me by Zhang Yimou, and Lao Zhang specially sent it over." I got in the way of Lao Zhang's face, and I also took a closer look, and sure enough, Lao Zhang's guy recommended it, a pretty good book, I recommend you to read it too, it's very interesting. "The book recommended by Zhang Yimou?

This also aroused Zhou Yan's interest. looked at the beginning, and immediately happy: "Yes, it's the first time I've seen this kind of writing technique, but what does this book have to do with Director Zhang." Is it worth recommending to you?"

Zhang Yimou's movie [Red Sorghum] is adapted from Mo Yan's novel, but this does not mean that Zhang Yimou is a person in the literary circle. A big director like Zhang Yimou specially recommends a history book like this to Li Yimou, which is strange in itself.

Li Yu looked at the direction Ye Ming went away and said, "Actually, this book was written by Ye Ming, where is it now." It is Ye Ming's pen name, and Ye Ming's first book may have heard of [The Legend of Wukong], which was also written by Ye Ming. ”

[The Legend of Wukong] is quite famous in Hong Kong City, maybe. Zhou Yan hasn't seen it, but. There are so many people who have read this book, and there are quite a few people around him who have read this book.

Therefore, I also know this book.

But at this time, Zhou Yan suddenly realized and said: "Where is Ye Ming today, this guy." actually published a book quietly. It's interesting, there's still time to make a movie and publish a book, it's not easy. ”

Li Yu also admired it very much and said: "Actually, I just appreciate this guy's this." When he was not filming, he found a publishing house to cooperate, published at his own expense, and marketed it himself. ”

This is still the sales volume in the mainland. It is said that Ming Pao Group and Taiwan's Huangguan Publishing House have fallen in love with this book, and it is estimated that the traditional version will soon be available. ”

In the gap between filming, I also made a book by myself. This made Zhou Yan very surprised, looking at [those things in the Ming Dynasty], thinking about the sales of Ye Ming's book, which made Zhou Yan gasp: "One million and two hundred thousand copies, in addition to the cost and the sharing with the publishing company, Ye Ming has made a lot of money, right?"

Li Yu nodded at this time and said: "Published at his own expense, no one thought that this book would be so popular, therefore, it is estimated that Ye Ming can get more than 10 million profits, and when he formed the crew, his company did not have much money because of the theater line, and now, it can officially start work." Even if it's Zhang Yimou. I am also very envious of this kid. I sold the movie to him, but I also hoped that he would be able to hype the movie in China. ”

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was sold to Ye Ming, I don't know if it was a blessing or a curse, but for the time being, it seems that it is quite a good business to be able to recover part of the investment. At this time, Ye Ming summoned Sister Fang Fang, Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, Tang Wei and several others to discuss the issue of [Bright Sword], at this time, Ye Ming glanced at Du Liang and said: "How has the script changed, if it means that we will start filming immediately, does it mean that we can keep up." ”

In this regard, Du Liang is quite professional, and he swears: "There is no problem with this, the script is about to be finished, and there is no problem with the bureau starting filming tomorrow." It's a pity that the script can only be changed halfway. ”

Ye Ming said thoughtfully: "Half of it is good, it has been changed, you say, does anyone in China dare to shoot your book?"

In a word, Du Liang was blocked, yes, at the end of a novel like Liangjian, Li Yunlong finally said that he committed suicide during a special period, even if the plot is changed, no one in China dares to shoot it, and it is the fate of being banned if it is filmed.

Then, Ye Ming took out a list and said: "Since the company is making a film, it naturally means that the people of our company are given priority, I have a list here, which I think are more suitable roles for you, and after you go back, you will figure it out according to your role, if there is no problem, then it will be decided." ”

Ye Ming's list is formulated according to the personalities of American and Russian actors, and I dare not say that it must be accurate, but at least it is more suitable for actors.

As for Xu Zheng and Huang Bo, this is a test for the boss, and they themselves are quite clear in their hearts, so after getting the role, they went back. Ye Ming took a look at Sister Fang Fang, and finally asked: "How is the company's funds now, is it enough to support the filming of a TV series?" ”

This question. It's the key, he won't say it in front of everyone, but since Sister Fang Fang is left alone, at this time, Ye Ming naturally said that he wants to understand the real situation.

Sister Fang Fang looked at the record and said, "Five million .83 million, this is all the working capital, this is still your record." There is also a sales share of [The Legend of Wukong]. Leave two million in reserve, and the rest is just more than three million.

However, the profits generated by the things you asked me to do during the Spring Festival have not yet arrived, but soon, only a week at most. However, this time we are walking a tightrope in the TV series, and I don't feel very good, if it fails, then our company will immediately fall into financial crisis. ”

Ye Ming said with great certainty: "Don't worry, I will naturally do it with certainty in my heart." If there's a checkout. How much money should there be?"

Sister Fang Fang thought for a while and said, "If the book payment is settled, then we will have more than 13 million funds, which is enough to support a TV series." Now there are eight publishing houses that want to negotiate with us about the publication of the second book of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", I wonder what you mean, boss?"

Ye Ming handed Sister Fang a book manuscript during the Spring Festival, which was the first episode of [Those Things in the Ming Dynasty], and gave Sister Fang Fang a plan to publish it at her own expense and ship it by herself. In fact, Sister Fang Fang originally thought that it would be better to cooperate with publishing, but Ye Ming was too short of money. Therefore, I want to take advantage of this matter.

Sure enough, [Those Things in the Ming Dynasty] did not disappoint Ye Ming, and his unique writing technique had a huge impact on the domestic literary world, like dropping a depth charge on a calm lake.

Ye Ming pondered for a moment and said, "The second one, let's talk about it next year, one book a year." This is not only filming, after all, my major is filming, since money is not a problem, then you can start preparing for the start-up.

Tomorrow I'm going to visit Han Shanping. Discuss the issue of this TV series. ”

The third master's office has also begun to evolve in the direction of a scholar, after all, he is a person who wants to be a leader, even if it is a faΓ§ade decoration, what are the four books and five classics or something, they must be there, and they must pretend to be an elegant cultural person.

Han Shanping looked at Ye Ming with interest and said: "You kid, you like to go off the rails, your company's own TV series is a bit unjustifiable, this makes me a little embarrassed." ”

Ye Ming looked at the treacherous and cunning Han Shanping, and said unambiguously: "Third master, if you say, can this TV series be filmed by the film factory? I estimate that no director will make such a mistake." Of course, the problem of unjustifiable names, if it is a joint system, then there is no problem.

Sanye, your producer, others can't say anything. Moreover, if the troops can be used to assist in the filming of this scene, there will be no problem. ”

Han Shanping is also quite optimistic about this TV series, the sword goes sideways, this is a TV series that goes off the edge, but if it is filmed, the impact will be very big.

At the moment, Han Shanping thought for a while and said: "There is no problem with your suggestion, but your identity is a little criticized, you are not from the country, if you use the army to film, it is impossible, if you are a person of human art, the General Political Department or the National Theater or something, everyone is a public unit, help each other, there will be almost no problem." ”

In this word, in one sentence, identity, the key is the issue of identity, no matter how Ye Ming says it, he has no public office, so some things are not easy to operate.

Ye Ming thought for a while and said, "First-class actor, don't you need a title?" Han Shanping said with a smile: "It doesn't have to be an actor, a singer, a screenwriter, anyway, as long as you have an identity, there is no problem." Rules, this is the rule of our industry, everyone has to abide by it. ”
