Chapter 11: What the hell are you going to shoot?

Fools can hear from the conversation between Lawyer He and Ren He that they really want to pay 300 million!

This is the reason why Sun Xiaopang immediately changed his attitude after the two finished speaking.

He is indeed a person who takes his reputation very seriously, so whether it is three million or thirty million, it is not enough for him to temporarily shelve the film "Domestic God", which is very likely to win awards.

But when that number rises to 300 million, it's different.

A film with a production budget of 300 million yuan, even if you don't care about the box office geometry of the finished film released in the later stage, just directing the shooting of such a big production, the salary that Sun Xiaopang can get into his pocket is definitely more than a few million.

Once such a movie can save its capital or even make a small profit at the box office after its release, the dividends that he Sun Xiaopang can get will definitely be the most in his entire directorial career.

It is true that Sun Xiaopang attaches great importance to his reputation, but the reason why he attaches great importance to his reputation is, in the final analysis, to make money.

The reason why he wants to rely on the domestic god to win the award is because Sun Xiaopang wants to use such a Thousand Flowers Award to officially promote to the recognized first-line director in the circle, although the fame is what he wants, but the income of the first-line director is what he really covets.

For Sun Xiaopang, this is a full budget of 300 million, which is very fragrant.

You say how can art be so full of copper smell?

This means that those who engage in art don't need to eat, so they can use love to generate electricity......

Film art is in the service of making money, although no one in this circle will ever say such a sentence explicitly, but all commercial film directors know it.

How else would it be called a commercial film?

Everybody is going to have a good meal......

When Sun Xiaopang was waiting for Ren He's reply with hope, he didn't forget to add tea to Ren He's teacup with his right hand that showed a rainbow tattoo.

Regarding Sun Xiaopang's change, which is like a change in face in Sichuan opera, Ren He and Lawyer He are both quite confused.

Ren He said with a surprised face: "That, Director Sun, didn't you just say that only people with brain problems will take care of me?

"What are you talking about...... My Sun Xiaopang has always had problems with his brain, this is a well-known thing, okay!" Sun Xiaopang finished speaking righteously, revealing the tattoo on his right arm in front of Ren He's eyes: "What normal person would tattoo a rainbow on his arm!

Ren He: "......"

Mr. Ho: "......"

After a short silence, Lawyer He directly pulled Ren He aside and began to persuade Ren He.

But what he didn't expect was that Ren He's attitude towards throwing money to make a film was quite resolute, no matter how he persuaded him, even if he said that Mr. Huang would be angry underground, Ren He did not waver in his position.

The final result was that under Ren He's instructions, Sun Xiaopang dragged Lawyer He to draft the relevant contract.

Ren He, who was left alone in the director's office, was drinking tea leisurely.

The purpose of asking Lawyer He to bring him over to Sun Xiaopang today was to spend money to let Sun Xiaopang help him make a movie.

And the purpose of his money to make this movie is to allow Song Xiaoxuan to serve as the heroine.

The reason why the budget was directly raised to the figure of 300 million, Ren He also made the final decision after consideration, yes, he did not come up with this figure temporarily.

The reason for setting the budget at 300 million is not complicated.

If he only spends a few million or one or two million to make a movie, although he can ensure that the movie will hit the street, with Ren He's understanding of Song Xiaoxuan, he feels that such a failure may not make Song Xiaoxuan give up his acting career.

The reason why Song Xiaoxuan is unwilling to give up now is that she wants to wait for an opportunity, although Ren He gave her this opportunity with millions and twenty million, but Song Xiaoxuan will definitely have a new reason at that time.

For example, "The cost is too small, the scheduling rate and attendance rate are too low, although I have worked hard to act, but there are few audiences to watch it! So even if this movie hits the street at the box office, it is not because of my acting skills! I will continue to wait for the next opportunity!"

Although the likelihood of such a scene appearing is not particularly high, what if it does?

A circle where a small assistant can fool around, a circle where the second uncle can make friends with many female stars, and a circle where there are people XD, PC, and CG at every turn......

Ren He didn't want Song Xiaoxuan to continue to fool around here.

Therefore, he directly set the budget to 300 million.

No matter what the movie itself is, the production cost is here, and a movie like this that can be regarded as a big production will inevitably have a low scheduling rate for early theater release.

If under such circumstances, the movie still fails and hits the street and the box office is dismal, then Song Xiaoxuan has no reason to continue to persevere.

This is the reason why he compared three fingers in front of Sun Xiaopang before.

"The director and crew have everything in place, and the next step is the script...... But before I can do that, I'll have to tell that little assistant to fuck off. ”

When Ren He and Sun Xiaopang finished signing the contract, it was almost night.

Because of the lawyer's involvement in the whole process, both the contract itself and some legal issues have been handled very properly.

Even Sun Xiaopang originally felt that there was some trouble - the suspension of the filming of "Domestic God", and with the intervention of lawyer He, he won the smallest compensation from the management side of "Domestic God", which is not a lot of money for Ren He.

Two days later, after everything was completed in an orderly manner, director Sun Xiaopang and his entire crew were all merged into the film and television company established in the name of Ren He - GHS Pictures.

When Sun Xiaopang will suspend the filming of domestic God to make a new film, and the crew was acquired by GHS Pictures as a whole, the news of the dismissal of an assistant director surnamed Zheng was also announced by Sun Xiaopang.

On the same day, Assistant Zheng's expulsion caused a stir in the group, not because everyone was sympathizing with the assistant, but because everyone was shouting "happy".

The assistant surnamed Zheng often uses his position to facilitate the harassment of actresses, in fact, many people in the group know about it, but in line with the idea that more is better than less, everyone has done the majority of silence.

And after Sun Xiaopang told everyone that he was expelled, and that he would eat a lawsuit and even enter the class room, most of the silent people were no longer silent, and they either spat or stepped on Assistant Zheng's "corpse".

It's a bit of an irony, but it's also a very realistic thing.

Of course, Ren He doesn't care about these voices in the crew, after all, the result he wants Sun Xiaopang has already been done, and he doesn't care about the process or the opinions of the rest of the people.

Another two or three days passed.

The crew of the original "Domestic God" still arrives on time every day at the set where the scene layout has been completely dismantled, and everyone sitting and eating melon seeds on the empty set is quite boring.

On this day, someone who couldn't sit still finally found an assistant director of the director team and asked about the news of the new film.

So, the assistant director, who also didn't get the news, found Sun Xiaopang and asked the same question.

This is the third time he has gone to Sun Xiaopang because of the new film.

Then, Sun Xiaopang called Ren He.

This is the seventh time that Sun Xiaopang has called Ren He to ask about this in the past few days.

"That, Boss Ren, it's been three or four days, have you decided what you want to shoot?
