Chapter 2 Do You Have a Car?
Ning Hao is making a commercial film for the first time, and he has no experience, and the previous two dramas "Incense" and "Green Meadow" are very typical author movies.
Author's films, also known as film festival films, can travel around the world for free as long as they are screened in one place -- there are more than 200 film festivals in the world, and film screenings are definitely needed to hold film festivals.
Ning Hao's first film was shortlisted for the Locarno International Film Festival, and then he traveled around the world with the film...
It's actually quite boring to have such a day, because there is no sense of identity!
You think, you don't travel thousands of miles to show a movie to foreigners, and foreigners may not understand...
It should be 03, the Berlin Film Festival showed "Green Meadow", Ning Hao counted that there were only forty audiences at the bottom...
A little sad:
'I make a movie every year, travel tens of thousands of kilometers to communicate with dozens of audiences, and I still can't understand what they say... I hope that my expression will be seen by a wider audience. After all, Chinese films are only marginalized overseas, and I should make some movies that Chinese audiences like!"
What does it mean that audiences like movies?
Commercial films!
He sorted out the script "Big Diamond" he had written before and decided to use this as his commercial debut.
Then, "Big Diamond" was selected for Andy Lau's Asian Rising Star Guide Program.
Lao Liu is really courageous, regardless of whether he wants to gain fame or not, but Ning Hao's "Big Diamond", Lao Liu really paid 3 million!
Any support is virtual, real money will pay you, this is the most real support!
As soon as the producer settles the accounts, the three million funds are not enough for two months...
Ning Hao thought about it, and simply shot with high-definition digital, and then magnetic transfer in the later stage.
Here's the problem, "Big Diamond", that is, "Crazy Stone", has a big play.
- Car!
This year, the car is expensive, and the owners are not baby, according to the plot, two cars are needed, and they are all going to be hit...
"That Maserati, tens of thousands of dollars for a headlight, we really can't afford to pay for it!"
"What? Tens of thousands of car lights?"
Huang Bo was shocked...
Ning Hao disagreed: "It's a fuss, everyone's car lights have to be assembled in Germany!"
"Can't find it in China?"
"Where is there anyone in China who is advanced? Can you find the original?"
"Ahem..."Yue Xiaojun coughed and interrupted Ning Hao's pretense: "Maserati is an Italian car!"
“... After talking for a long time, you're bragging too?"
Ning Hao hesitated for a while, probably saying something like 'how can the director's thing be called bragging, I said that Maserati is German' or something...
Yue Xiaojun said: "Lao Ning, this thing is not easy to do, we hit someone, and we can't afford to pay for it..."
"Crazy Stone", Yue Xiaojun is both a screenwriter and an assistant director, and one of the leading actors, just the 'what do you like about him?' Is he better than my eldest brother?'
Ning Hao nodded: "So, what I mean is that we add a clause to the contract: all interpretation rights belong to the crew..."
Huang Bo was speechless: "Then aren't you a pit person?"
"What's wrong with me, movie shooting, prop damage is normal!"
Huang Bo was speechless...
That's the case, Ning Hao's gang has a bit of a gangster, they really dare to sign a false contract, and then hit the car...
As for how to get it after that?
What do you like, anyway, the crew has no money, if you are not convinced, you can find Andy Lau!
You have to say morally that this is a lie!
But if you look at it from a cinematic perspective...
"If only we could find a big boss!"
"How can there be such a fool? A car is worth hundreds of thousands!"
“...”
Huang Bo suddenly remembered Lu Xiaoran's black Passat...
......
In the car, the husky was popularizing science: "Ning Hao, Huang Bo, and Xu Zheng are the leaders of Chinese films in the future!"
"I'm telling you, it's important that you get along with them!"
“... What about Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, and Chen Kaige?"
"They are all old and retired from the stage of history..."
"Who's the highest vote?"
“... Wu Jing's "Wolf Warrior 2"!"
Lu Xiaoran was taken aback: "Ah, Wu Jing, Wu Jing of "Tai Chi Grandmaster"? Are you sure?"
Wu Jing...
How to say it, he has recently been addicted to martial arts TV series and can't extricate himself, "Southern Shaolin", "The Country is Important", "A Chinese Ghost Story" includes "Wudang 2", which almost auditioned...
It's hard to imagine that he can become the king of the box office!
The husky is very sure: "I can't remember the exact time, but it should be 17 years... Don't worry, you go into the Iron Triangle first!"
"Iron Triangle?"
"Ning Hao, Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, many people call the three of them the Iron Triangle, whether it is box office appeal or movie reputation, they are all unique, and they have indisputable strength in the film and television industry!"
"After "Stone", they created "Crazy Racing", "Heart Blossom Road" and "Thai Embarrassment"... The last two are more than one billion at the box office, and if you mix with them, it's much better than what Huayi you are with!"
"How much? billion box office?
Billion box office, what concept?
The total box office of domestic films last year was 2 billion, and the highest-grossing movie was "Wuji", 181 million, and then "Myth" 97 million...
Let's put it this way, there are only a few domestic films that have grossed more than 100 million so far, "Hero", "Kung Fu", "Ambush on All Sides", "No Thieves in the World"...
Billion...
The auxiliary device didn't know exactly how to explain it: "... I don't bother to talk so much to you turtle, anyway, you can just believe me!"
“...”
Although Lu Xiaoran was suspicious, the husky never deceived him, and since he said so, he must be right.
......
"Brother Bo, Brother Yue, Director Ning!"
Of course Lu Xiaoran knew this group of people.
The circle is so big...
"Here," Huang Bo beckoned Lu Xiaoran to sit down, "How is it? You told me last month what you were going to audition for... Yang Jiajiang?"
""Young Yang Jiajiang", a TV series jointly created by Tang Ren and Huayi..."
Ning Hao asked suspiciously: "Didn't you come out with a "Yangmen Tiger General" a few years ago?"
"That's right, it's a work that follows the trend. Lu Xiaoran replied, and continued: "... I signed the contract, and then I was topped!"
“... If you sign a contract, can someone else top it?"
"People have a good relationship with the producer..."Lu Xiaoran didn't bother to say so much, they are all insiders, this kind of thing happens often, it is estimated that it will not be strange for a long time.
"Waiter, come to four bottles of Qingdao, and another mixed sauce noodles!"
“... Do you still eat mixed noodles at the bar?"
"So what am I going to eat? Do you want to eat? I'm in for a treat!"
"Gotta, you eat!"
Ning Hao likes Lu Xiaoran's temper very much, they are all turtles, what are you pretending to be?
“... Don't talk about this, Xiao Lu, I heard that you rejected Qiong Yao?
"Her book is too anti-human, no matter which play, the junior can't help but can't help it, the male protagonists are all scumbags, the heroine is pitiful on the surface, but in fact she is the junior who destroys the family, you look at the "Deep Love and Rain", He Shuhuan is a typical scumbag, the classic quote 'I'm not the only man in the world who is tempted by two women', I can't accept such a role. ”
"Haha..."Huang Bo couldn't laugh anymore, and patted Yue Xiaojun on the shoulder: "I'll just say that my buddy is interesting!"
“... No, if I want to play the role, I must like it in my heart, otherwise I won't be able to play it. ”
"Yes, I really see it, I really hear it, I really feel it!"
Huang Bo suddenly thought of something, first glanced at Ning Hao, and then asked, "Xiao Lu, do you have a car?"
“... Yes, by the way, I can't drink, you three drink!"
