Chapter 67: Money Capacity (2/5)
Did Bo Ge make a movie?
Lu Xiaoran was taken aback: "He didn't tell me!"
"Micro film, what is it called "Special Services"!"
“… Got it!"
Micro Film...
How to say it, in recent years, there has been a wave of transformation in the circle, and more and more actors have begun to prepare their own film works.
There are inherent advantages for actors to transform into directors, especially well-known actors, who naturally have many network resources that novice directors do not have!
Bo Ge made a 27-minute short film "Special Services" some time ago...
Probably to prepare for becoming a director in the future!
There's a saying that your first work can tell what kind of person you are!
Bogo's first micro-film, "Special Services"...
Tsk, this kind of movie is a sideline ball!
The plot is very simple, Miss saves a middle-aged frustrated man: The middle-class boss tries to commit suicide in the hotel because he is facing bankruptcy, and just a second before he prepares to commit suicide, the massage lady goes to the wrong room and mistakes him for a guest, and through communication, the young lady saves him...
The screenwriter is Xu Zheng...
is also a prostitute!
If there is no life, where does the subject matter come from?
"By the way, I know a nice little brother, do you want to see it?"
"Who?"
"Wu Ershan, his directorial debut "The Legend of the Kitchen Knife" has been filmed, do you want to help send it?"
"Wu Ershan? I know him, the advertising director..."Kitchen Knife Legend"? This name is too low!"
"He changed it a little, and it was called "Knife Laughter"... I also went for a small role!"
“… Okay, you've said it, I'll definitely do it," Lu Xiaoran nodded, and then said, "You send me his number, and I'll contact him personally." ”
……
Wu Ershan's appearance is very typical of northerners, with a big face and a rough appearance, but it has nothing to do with ugliness...
After a brief chat, he screened "Knife Laughter" to Lu Xiaoran...
In fact, Lu Xiaoran knows about this movie, and he also knows the person Wu Ershan, and he doesn't need an auxiliary device to tell him - Wu Ershan is a very famous advertising director in the advertising industry.
Of course, the auxiliary device also talked about Wu Ershan's personal experience - a very rare mainland director who can stably control large-investment commercial films...
And I love oriental magic!
Lu Xiaoran patiently watched "Knife Laughter"...
This movie...
The story is terrible!
However, the sense of form and styling of "Knife Laughter" is particularly awesome!
The color modeling has a very prominent impact, sometimes giving people the feeling of being stinged in the eyes, so that the gradually rippling heavy taste and bad taste become the main tone of the film.
The visual elements are very full!
"How much did you spend on this film?"
"Less than 6 million!"
“… Less than 6 million?"
Lu Xiaoran was stunned, according to his expectations, such a color and shape would take 20 million to shoot!
However, Wu Ershan is an advertising director, and he may have implantation, so he asked again: "What about removing advertising placement?"
"There is no implantation, this film is invested by South Beauty, they give me 5 million, and I make up 1 million myself..."
"They still make movies?"
"I don't know about this..."
Catering, entertainment are not separated?
Forced to endure and didn't complain, Lu Xiaoran continued: "Our company wants this movie." ”
Wu Ershan was overjoyed: "Of course you can!"
"There is a condition!"
“… You said. ”
"You should also know that our company is now signing directors..."
"I do!"
Before the second half of the sentence was spoken, Wu Ershan answered directly...
“… You're welcome there. ”
Lu Xiaoran didn't know that Orange Imaging was already the most popular film and television company for new directors in the circle...
For directors, the most troublesome thing is to pull investment, Orange Imaging is generous, and rarely intervenes in creation, which is well-known in the circle!
But most of the directors they signed were genre film creators.
It just so happens that Wu Ershan is determined to become a big director of commercial films - coincidence!
Therefore, without waiting for Lu Xiaoran to finish speaking, Wu Ershan answered directly, for fear that the other party would regret it...
……
Getting Wu Ershan is just a small episode, and Lu Xiaoran continues to take root in the crew.
"The Great Gold Robbery" is scheduled for January 21, and it will be released at the same time as "Pleasant Goat"...
New films released in January, "The Chronicles of War", "The Chronicles of Narnia: Dawn Treading Waves", "New Shaolin Temple"...
The first two films have no audience base, and at most they will circle a box office of more than 100 million, and then quietly release them;
"New Shaolin Temple", the trailer has been released in three versions, and there is no audience response...
In recent years, the audience probably has a layer of awareness: don't let Hong Kong directors shoot big productions in the mainland, especially when it comes to history!
Therefore, Orange is quite confident in "The Big Robbery", and feels that it is not difficult to brush up on the box office of 200 million!
Tangtang is also busy, "Step by Step Shocking" has officially started filming, and she has to stay on the set for at least a month!
Zhong Lifang encountered a bunch of troubles - I don't know who is cheap, and directly broke the news that "Mission Impossible 4" needs a Chinese actress, and the decision is in the hands of Orange!
That's "Mission Impossible", a Hollywood A-level production!
The media Wuyang Wuyang ran to block the door.
In the end, the company held a simple press conference, saying that we only have the right to suggest, don't report blindly!
But reporters don't care about that, how to write and how to write, "Mission Impossible", Sino-American co-production, two flowers...
As a result, the company received hundreds of resumes and a large number of broker referrals within a few days.
In fact, most people also know that this role must give preference to the actors inside Orange, such as Sugar Candy.
However, Zhong Lifang asked Tangtang's opinion, and the girl said that she didn't want to go to Hollywood...
You say this...
Outsiders were eager to squeeze through the door, and even Zhang Ziyi called to ask about the situation, you don't want to go?
Tangtang's reason is simple: '$15 million investment is not a small amount, you have to find someone to share it!'
She recommended Da Tian Tian because she has the ability to make money.
However, recently Da Tian Tian was lost - the filming of "Warring States" was completed, and she was rumored to be rumored that she was about to lose confidence in the movie!
Teacher Sun is so disrespectful!
Zhong Lifang simply consulted with Chen Zhixi, who asked, "What is Xiaoran's opinion?"
“… He doesn't care about any of that, his whole heart is on Source Code, and our company has been out of brokerage since last year..."
Zhong Lifang first proposed to add an actress, of course, thinking about sugar candy...
I didn't expect Sugar Candy to be very interested...
Chen Zhixi was very calm: "Let's analyze first, how many people are interested, and then screen..."
"Zhang Ziyi, Li Bingbing, and Fan Bingbing are all interested!" After a pause, Zhong Lifang said with a strange face: "Shu Qi and Lin Zhilin's agents also called me..."
Chen Zhixi shook his head: "Forget about Zhang Ziyi and Li Bingbing, they have nothing to do with us." ”
“… What does Fan Bingbing have to do with us?"
"She came to string "People in Embarrassment" for free!"
