Chapter 344: Casting
Mao Xiao's move is to retreat into advance, and he plays it really beautifully.
It seems that most of the company's shares have been lost, but in fact, it is worthless except that the entrepreneurial idea is a little interesting.
After hugging Fan Liancheng's thigh, the situation was completely different.
The problem of capital has been solved, the problem of talent has also been solved, the topic degree and development channels are available, as long as the developed products are not too bad, and the future is carefully operated, I believe it should not be worse, not to mention that Mao Xiao is equivalent to finding a high-paying job, drought and flood income.
Look at Fan Liancheng's side again.
After Fan Liancheng received Du Lin's call, he felt that the other party's proposal was a bit interesting, and since he felt that relying on algorithms might be able to make a name for himself in the field of journalism, he simply agreed, and he should give it a try.
Two days later, he learned from Du Lin's assistant that he had signed a contract and was going to arrange another office space, Fan Liancheng pondered for a moment after listening to it, and in a blink of an eye, he left this "small business" behind and rushed to Hengdian Film and Television City to assist in film casting.
Xiaowen went to London again, due to the time difference, only once in two or three days, Fan Liancheng has been a little lazy recently, and does not like to spend his energy on work, the preparation of the movie is entrusted to Zhao Sturgeon and Li Xiao, two friends, in addition, some experienced teachers are hired to assist.
It's easy to throw money.
But movies are not just throwing money, countless bad movies are enough to prove this.
After Fan Liancheng arrived with the idea of inspecting the work, he combed through the entire project from beginning to end, including the resumes of the director and screenwriter, etc.
After understanding it, I found that I had a little impression that the other party filmed "Crazy Stone" a few years ago, and the one who took advantage of this fire was called Ning Hao.
Whether the director is good or not, just look at the previous works, Fan Liancheng likes that drama very much, but he is a little worried that he is used to making small productions and can't control big scenes.
Afterwards, I felt that it was actually quite suitable, after all, he was a famous director, and "Blowing the Lantern" was mainly spinning underground, there were not so many big scenes, as long as he could create a good character, the investment would be half of the success first, and I felt that Zhao Sturgeon was quite reliable in this matter.
partnered with Zhao Sturgeon to fund a film and television company, called Fans (Fan) Pictures, Zhao Sturgeon's personal influence was marginalized, and this guy has no opinion on this.
Zhao Sturgeon also knows how famous Fan Liancheng is, and Fans Holdings, a subsidiary of Liancheng International in the mainland, has now ranked among the top 100 enterprises in the mainland, and can also find ways to save some taxes.
At this time, sitting in the rented small building, the signboard is hanging at the door of the antique small building, with a total office area of more than 500 square meters, and there are only more than 30 regular employees in total.
Fan Liancheng held the teacup, the cup was soaked in black wolfberry, the blue-purple tea is easy to make people lose their appetite, and the taste is not as sweet as the normal red wolfberry, he tasted it and covered the cup, and asked: "I haven't been caring about this side recently, should I have made some transactions with anyone, and promised the position of the actress to whom?"
Zhao Sturgeon was wearing a white down jacket, more like a tourist who came to travel than the boss of the company, and shook his head with a righteous face after hearing this:
"You've told me a thousand times, how could I do that kind of thing, at most who will help introduce the directors of other crews, tens of millions of big investments, I'm stupid to mess around, play and business can't be confused. ”
Thumbs up to him, Fan Liancheng beckoned and smiled: "Finally grown up, what are the potential candidates for the heroine now, take the photos to me and pick them." ”
"Go and go, don't pretend to be like my father, I'm older than you, what do you mean I'm grown up? The price of actors at different levels is different, I have a price list here, and you can choose it against your resume.
I think it's better for me not to meddle in this matter, you invest more money, in case the project is yellow and finally blames me, saying that the role chosen is not good, then I will not become a professional backer?"
Fan Liancheng smiled and didn't speak.
He was indeed prepared to let the general manager of Fans Pictures take the blame in case the project was not successful, so as not to damage the value of the entire series of film and television copyrights.
Turning his words: "Now there are more and more movies and TV series adapted, I plan to find more, collect some and hold them in my hands, you have time to read more, modern and ancient classes, as long as the story itself is good enough, I am happy to spend more money."
As for the casting work, I just happened to come over, and I took advantage of the fact that in the last few days, the male lead actor must be handsome, calm and smart if he wants to look good, and the female lead actor must be good-looking, especially good-looking, which will help the box office. We are not a small crew that catches ducks on the shelves, the salary is quite generous, and the space to choose from is very large, and the price of Lao Mei is only about 20 million US dollars, so we shouldn't be expensive. ”
It's good that he has been in the film and television city for so long, and Zhao Sturgeon has some opinions about this, and replied:
"Don't choose expensive, choose one with good acting skills and affordable, the acting departments of various universities graduate tens of thousands of people every year, maybe you can get a series for tens of millions. Aren't you planning to sign six films as soon as you sign them, so there's no need to spend a lot of money, people don't have resources, and they need to rely on the fame of celebrities to support the scene, it's a big deal for you to play in person, and ensure that everyone knows your face. ”
"Me?"
Fan Liancheng has been an actor, not only made cameos, but also got paid.
Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment, and then said: "I'd better forget it, no matter how you think about it, you can make a play, if you seize the time to practice acting, the role of Big Golden Tooth is very suitable for you, and you will be a big star in the future, maybe it will make you popular." ”
“..... Let's talk about it then, I've found the information.
You choose from it first, sign a few as soon as you sign it, and when you encounter those female stars who are short of money and looking for opportunities, maybe you can get a discount, and the initiative in this matter is on our side. ”
Fan Liancheng nodded and looked through the information, a thick stack, five centimeters, almost half of them were actors, half of them were actresses, and they had their height, weight, age, resume, etc., and the salary was roughly divided into several grades, there was no specific price code, after all, it was not to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, it depended on the situation.
Sitting at the desk flipping one by one, he is only responsible for choosing the protagonist, and most of the supporting roles are playing soy sauce in it, just find some good acting skills.
Don't be old, don't look unpleasant, and don't pay too much.
If you see something that is pleasing to the eye, keep it first, maybe it will be worth tens of millions of money-making opportunities, and then it will fall on these people.
Fan Liancheng was afraid that he had missed someone, and while he looked at it carefully, he also thought of the one in Sijiu City.
Gulzar's appearance is enough, her age and acting skills can't keep up, she has recently returned to her hometown to study, preparing for the art exam, the two have not been in touch for a while, and the intersection has long been cut off.
At this moment, he is holding a resume, with the temperament of a woman on it, looking a bit like Qin Zhi, a female assistant in Dragon City before, whose name is Zhang Mi.
was also pulled out and put aside, Zhao Sturgeon picked up his resume and stared at it, and said happily: "Who is this beauty, she looks very good, you must find an interview." You sit next to you, and I'll look up her other pictures on the Internet......"
