It turned out that Binjiang Friendship County once built a Feitian Film and Television City, with Tang and Song architectural styles. Later, for some reason, it was abandoned before it was completed.

Qi Zhounan means that instead of renting someone else's venue, it is better to buy this place and use it for the filming of "Ni Dress and Feather Clothes". Although it will increase the investment, it will save the cost of venue rental, and the actors will be easy to place.

In addition, when the film is finished, tourism development will be carried out in the future.

"When I heard about it, I thought of the Old Town. The renovation of the ancient city and the current tourism development have been very successful, and Feitian Film and Television City is no problem. Of course, there is a lot of risk here, after all, the transportation in Youyi County is not convenient. Qi Zhounan said.

"Director Qi knows that this time he can protect the box office, and he has the money to spoil it. Situ Xiaodan couldn't help but interject.

"Little Dan, don't talk nonsense. McXiaoji stopped.

"Hehe, in fact, to put it bluntly, it's also such a reason. Take advantage of the money, do a good job, and become big. Qi Zhounan said with a smile.

Mai Xiaoji was tempted, the movies on the schedule passed by a gust of wind, and the income was like a bet, concentrated in the release period. When the movie theater went offline, the income plummeted. Moreover, there will be emergencies in the middle, such as the interruption of filming by the contracted actors, the tainted incident of the protagonist, and the impact of climate and traffic on the occupancy rate.

The redevelopment of the film and television city can not only be used for its own use, but also open to the outside world and shoot and rent, and if it is done well, it can share the risk.

"Director Qi, tomorrow I will call Shangyan Beifei, let's go to Youyi County to have a look. McXiaoji said.

Qi Zhounan was very happy, "It can really be implemented, it is close to the city, and if there are any accidents, it is easy to communicate." ”

Taking advantage of Qi Zhounan's happiness, Situ Xiaodan stepped forward and said with a smile: "Director Qi, do you think I can play a role?"

"Okay, Director Zhou also told me, you have a lot of potential. Qi Zhounan agreed to come down.

Situ Xiaodan was very happy, but she didn't expect Qi Zhounan's next words to make her a little discouraged, "Baimei has signed up enthusiastically, but most of them have a soft image, which is suitable for playing the imperial concubine and lady." The script mentions An Lushan's mother, who used to be a witch, and her beauty is a little evil, I think Xiao Dan is very suitable!"

"An Lushan?" Situ Xiaodan was a little unwilling.

"This character, although it only appears in memories, is very fresh and can make the audience's eyes shine and remember. After all, people are a little aesthetically tired of concubines in costume dramas. Qi Zhounan analyzed Situ Xiaodan from a professional point of view.

"Oh, then who plays Yang Yuhuan's mother-in-law?"

Qi Zhounan didn't react for a moment, and then said: "Oh, you mean Concubine Wu Hui, the mother of King Shou, right? This character is the number one female supporting role, proud and conceited but with a tragic ending, ups and downs, and a very rich inner world. By the way, Xiaoji, you proposed to arrange a role for Hua Jun last time, if you really want to choose from Baimei, it must be her. ”

"Hua Jun likes tragic characters. Mai Xiaoji emphasized.

"This woman is remarkable, she is devoted to the emperor, but because of the empress Wu Zetian, the government and the opposition are worried about the repetition of history, and there is no queen in the world. Later, he participated in the Lichu turmoil, died of depression, and only fell behind to mourn. Qi Zhounan introduced.

can't help the right, but he is unwilling, he has been working hard for it all his life, but he can't change the ending, it should be what Huajun wants.

"Choosing a role, Director Qi and Mr. Zhou are still watching, I'm a layman. Mai Xiaoji laughed at himself.

"Now that the script is submitted for review, there is still time to consider it. ”

The next day, together with Qizhou Nan, he took Yan Beifei, Nangong Yue and Situ Xiaodan to Youyi County.

Youyi County is just south of Binjiang, a two-hour journey, and it takes three hours to drive because of the road detour, but everyone is still very excited. Because the road will greatly shorten the distance from Binjiang city to Youyi County, it can be reached in 40 minutes.

I went to Feitian Film and Television City first, the location is relatively offset, and the mountains and rivers are close to the water, from the perspective of feng shui, it is quite good. The area is larger than the ancient city, and there are walls and buildings of antique buildings, which suddenly look like a look.

However, no one repaired them, weeds were everywhere, and many walls were peeling off and mottled and depressed.

The door was open, Situ Xiaodan just wanted to drive the car in, but a person came out of the guard room, a chair in one hand, put it in the center, and said lazily: "Not open to the public!"

"Let's go in and have a look. ”

The window was lowered, revealing a bright face, and the doorkeeper was a little dazed, subconsciously looking inside. Mai Xiaoji followed his gaze and saw a painted picture of a lady.

This person should only be painted.

The pretty face is not a pass, and the gatekeeper waved his hand again, "Let's go, this place is not open to the public." ”

Situ Xiaodan was a little anxious, Nangong Yue stopped her, opened the car door and went down, stuffed two hundred yuan into the hand of the guard, and then the two chairs were removed.

Driving in, the overall framework is still good, Qi Zhounan wants to promote this, and what he sees is the good side, "Xiaoji, you can take pictures here while repairing, and you can do both." ”

"Some of the exterior locations can also be filmed from the old city, the ownership is not personal, and the rent still has to be taken, but I can fight for the biggest discount and make up for it when the box office comes out. McXiaoji said.

As long as the movie is filmed, it is also a propaganda for the ancient city and the film and television city. Qi Zhounan said.

"Director Qi, what do you mean, do you have to buy it?" Situ Xiaodan dared to speak, and began to scare people again.

Qi Zhounan was not annoyed, and smiled faintly, "It's all for better development." ”

Mai Xiaoji is also optimistic about this, but they want to buy it, which is just wishful thinking at present, and it depends on the official attitude. An hour later, after the visit, Mai Xiaoji and others went to the county tourism bureau again.

Everyone was received by a deputy director, surnamed Zou, who was very enthusiastic.

After explaining his intentions, Director Zou also talked about the front and back of Feitian Film and Television City. The film and television city was originally invested and built by Binjiang Yuanfang Tourism Group, with a total investment budget of one billion.

Because of the huge amount, the government and the distant tourism group agreed that the government would contribute 100 million yuan, and the other party would contribute 900 million.

As a result, the actual funds in place for distant tourism are only 500 million, and after several urgings, they are either prevaricating or supporting, and they have been repeatedly delayed so far, and the follow-up funds are far away.

Seeing this situation, the government did not contribute to the construction because it was still 400 million yuan away from the final goal, and it could not complete the construction.

And then it was deserted.

"So, there's a distant travel group in the middle?" asked McXiaoji.

"Yes, there has been no clear answer so far, so it's hard to guess what disagreement has arisen. However, the film and television city is like a chicken rib, and the government does not mind changing hands, and also hopes to stimulate the county's economy. However, the premise is to negotiate with distant travelers. ”

Director Zou spoke very sincerely, and also welcomed the knowledge-seeking company to come to invest, but Mai Xiaoji did not immediately express his position, and he had to come back to study.
