Chapter 826: Don't, I'm the one who makes soy sauce

So fast!

When Wu Xiaotian received a special call from Li Ke, he still couldn't believe it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Because in his opinion, if this movie could be completed ten days ahead of schedule, it would already be a very remarkable thing. Now, Li Ke and the others were able to arrive ahead of schedule and complete it in nearly fifteen days, how could this not surprise Wu Xiaotian.

You must know that in the case of quality assurance, one more day in advance, one more day of movie promotion time, and one more day of movie box office guarantee.

"Director Li has worked hard. Wu Xiaotian said with a sigh.

"Where, what is this hard work, I just use my mouth, it's those actors who work hard, you have to invite everyone to have a meal when you go back. "Li Ke is very modest.

"That's nature. Wu Xiaotian naturally agreed to this request.

He knows that this month's film shooting, in fact, the hardest must be director Li Ke, he not only has to go to bed late and get up early with the actors, but also has to pay attention to the quality of film shooting at any time.

The next day, Li Ke flew to Hujiang with Ling Tong, Liu Wei and other key personnel of the crew.

Wu Xiaotian and Zhou Feng, as investors in the film, of course, are the east, and they invited the crew from Hujiang to have a good meal. After it was over, he invited everyone other than Li Ke to go to the hotel that had been booked to rest first, and the two of them were working with Li Ke to discuss the relevant things later in the movie.

However, before that, Li Ke first gave the relevant financial expense statement of "My Savage Girlfriend", and asked Wu Xiaotian and Zhou Feng to check it.

Wu Xiaotian did not refuse, although he believed Li Ke, and the final audit of these financial statements still had to be reviewed by the relevant accounting company, but he still took it and took a general look.

In the financial statements provided by Li Ke, almost all the filming expenses of "My Sassy Girlfriend" are included, including the remuneration of the actors, the remuneration of the crew, the accommodation of the crew, the rental costs of clothing, photographic equipment, etc., and so on.

Among them, the most expensive is of course Ling Tong's salary.

However, this is also a must, Ling Tong, as a female star who has been famous for a long time, has never been low, and this time it is her first screen appearance after filming and recording "Run, Brother", and her popularity has soared, and the price should be higher, but this time she asked for a relatively reasonable salary for Wu Xiaotian's face.

As for other shooting costs, there are relevant expense breakdowns for how much they have spent, and they will have to wait for the accountant to verify.

"Well, Director Li, these are trivial matters, let's talk about the specific release of the movie, this is crucial. Wu Xiaotian looked at it for a while, then put the account book aside and said to Li Ke.

"Yes, Director Li!" Zhou Feng had a headache for these data, and when he heard Wu Xiaotian speak, he hurriedly followed.

Li Ke knew the tempers of Wu Xiaotian and Zhou Feng, and he also had a clear conscience, so he nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, you are right, and I stayed to mainly talk to you about the release of the movie." ”

He paused and continued: "Although the movie "My Sassy Girlfriend", with the efforts of all the actors and crew members, it took almost a month to finish the film and complete the post-production. However, even so, it is less than half a month away from the release date we set for Valentine's Day. ”

Hearing this, Wu Xiaotian and Zhou Feng, they all nodded in unison, director Li Ke was telling the truth, and the time left for them was indeed not enough.

Li Ke continued: "To be honest, I have been making movies for many years, from the first assistant director to the later director, and I have never tried to let a movie be released in such a short time. But if it hasn't been before, it doesn't mean that it hasn't, and I believe that this time it will definitely break my record. ”

At the end, he looked at Wu Xiaotian and said, "I am very confident. ”

"Why?" Zhou Feng was a little confused.

Li Ke smiled slightly, pointed at Wu Xiaotian, and said: "Because this movie was invested and written by Wu Xiaotian, in his career as an artist, there is no word failure." ”

"Haha......"

Zhou Feng laughed, patted his thigh and said, "Also, there is Xiaotian, what are you afraid of!"

Wu Xiaotian smiled bitterly and said: "It's the first time I've made a movie, and I'm still in the exploration stage. ”

"Don't ......" Li Ke glared and said, "Seeing that you are confident, you know that you have already thought about it, so don't hide it, tell us about it." ”

"That's it!"

Zhou Feng also coaxed on the side.

Seeing this situation, Wu Xiaotian did not hesitate, he thought about it for a while, organized the wording, and then slowly spoke.

"First of all, I think that our film, although it is relatively late, is not behind other films in terms of publicity. The first aspect that Wu Xiaotian said was in terms of publicity.

Because of any movie, before it is released, the publicity must be in place, otherwise, no matter how good the movie is, there is a great chance that it will be buried.

"Haha, yes, the promotion of this piece, needless to say, for more than a month, there has been a lot of uproar on the Internet, all about our "Do Not Disturb", no matter which webpage you read, there is a discussion about this movie on it, and you can't see it or not. Zhou Feng said with a smile.

"Well, that's right, thanks to the little genius. Li Ke also couldn't help but laugh.

Wu Xiaotian couldn't cry or laugh.

More than a month ago, after he announced that he was going to shoot "My Sassy Girlfriend", there were a lot of posts and comments attacking the movie on the Internet in an instant, and they all seemed to pop up in an instant.

For this situation, anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is definitely someone behind the scenes, wanting to discredit the reputation of the movie "My Sassy Girlfriend". As for the people who did this, everyone can guess with their toes that it was definitely done by the crew of the Korean movie "Lost Love", and perhaps there are some Chinese stakeholders in the middle.

Because Wu Xiaotian announced that he would invest in the filming of "My Sassy Girlfriend", and it was released on Valentine's Day in China, the biggest hit was definitely the "Lost Love" movie.

However, when these water armies first appeared, Wu Xiaotian was also taken aback, and even the people in the "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" program team said that they wanted to use the same method to hire some water armies to fight back.

Wu Xiaotian almost did it, but later he found that he didn't need it at all.

Yes, not at all!

Because after the appearance of these water armies, although there are more people who slander and insult "My Sassy Girlfriend" and even Wu Xiaotian on the Internet, there are also many more people who support this movie and Wu Xiaotian. Even some passers-by who don't know the truth are also very interested in the movie that caused this kind of controversy, and they have said that they must go to see it when the movie is released.

When things took such a turn, not only Wu Xiaotian and others were dumbfounded, but it is estimated that even those who manipulated behind the scenes would definitely vomit three liters of blood.

In fact, they didn't know that South Korea's producer Zheng and Lee Dong-jin and others were not only vomiting three liters of blood, but they were simply vomiting blood.

Here, Wu Xiaotian waved his hand, and he continued with a smile: "In addition, in terms of this theater chain, because of Fengzi's relationship, there must be no problem with filming. ”

He looked at Zhou Feng, because this was his first time making a movie, so a lot of work in film was very unfamiliar, especially in the relationship between cinema chains.

But fortunately, there is Zhou Feng, the second generation of film and television, so he has no worries.

"You can rest assured about this, I haven't been idle for more than a month, basically connecting all the large and small theaters in China, although I am not sure how much the scheduling rate will be, but it can definitely guarantee that there are more than Korean stick movies. Speaking of the relationship between theaters, Zhou Feng said very confidently.

Their family's Huaying Film and Television has been working hard in Huaxia Film and Television for more than ten years, and there are relationships in all aspects, although it cannot be said to be a one-handed cover, but large and small cinemas will still give some face, and they Huaying, Film and Television, also control some cinemas in their own hands.

Of course, Director Li has been filming movies for so many years, and there must be many acquaintances in theaters. Wu Xiaotian turned his head, he didn't forget Li Ke, who had been a director for many years, looked at him and said with a smile.

"Well, although there are not as many as the Feng Shao family, there are still some. Li Ke said calmly. In this regard, he will not hide his secrets, and he has long greeted people he is familiar with.

"That's fine, the publicity is in place, and the theater scheduling rate is fine, and in addition, I believe that the quality of the movies shot by Director Li will be even more fine, these are no problem, then our box office will be guaranteed, isn't it?" Wu Xiaotian smiled slightly and said.

"Well, that makes sense. Zhou Feng nodded unconsciously.

"I have also brought the complete movie source, we will take a look at it later, and you will give an evaluation. However, before that, I was still very confident in the movies I made, especially under the premise of having such a good script as Xiaotian. When it comes to his profession, Li Ke is very confident, he said proudly.

After speaking, he looked at Wu Xiaotian and continued: "However, Xiaotian, you have forgotten the last key question. ”

"What's the problem?" Wu Xiaotian asked in surprise. He seemed to have said it all.

"You!" Li Ke pointed at Wu Xiaotian and said with a smile.

"Me?" Wu Xiaotian was a little puzzled.

"Haha, I see. Zhou Feng said with a smile.

"What?"

Zhou Feng said with a smile: "What Director Li means is that in this movie, Xiaotian, you yourself are a very important focus figure, and you are an important part of the release of the movie." First of all, it's a movie, it's based on your novel, and it's written by yourself, and secondly, it's the first film you've invested in the film field, and a lot of people are paying attention to it. These have invisibly increased a lot of attention."

"Me, it would be nice if it didn't have a bad effect. Wu Xiaotian was stunned for a long time before he said helplessly.

"That's not going to happen, even if it's a bad comment, it's propaganda in disguise!" Li Ke blinked and said slyly.

"This ......"

"So. ”

Li Ke didn't wait for Wu Xiaotian to finish speaking, and hurriedly continued: "This is still more than ten days before the release, and our crew is estimated to have to go to some major cities for publicity, Xiaotian, you have to help with the promotion!"

Only then did Wu Xiaotian understand that Li Ke's previous foreshadowing was all prepared for this.

Routines, these are all routines!

However, he didn't shirk, this is a movie he invested in and filmed, helping this movie is equivalent to helping himself, he readily agreed: "Okay, as long as I have time, I will definitely go!"

"Haha, this makes me more confident. Li Ke said with a laugh.

"Come on, Director Li, don't take me so seriously, I'm just playing soy sauce!" Wu Xiaotian said modestly.

"Wow!" Li Ke scratched his head and said, "If there is a heavyweight soy sauce player like you, I really wish there were a few more!"

Hahaha......

The three of them looked at each other, followed by a burst of laughter.

Subsequently, the three of them discussed for a long time about the specific details.

After all, it's one thing to say, what should be done, or to do it in a down-to-earth manner.

Thankfully, Wu Xiaotian put Bei Bei at Liang Xin'er tonight, and he could discuss the issue without any burden.

It was very late that the three of them finalized the details, and then reworked them several times, after which they went home, rested separately, and prepared for the battle that followed.
