Chapter 430: Department Cooperation, Enchanting Slut
PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly pass!
in the conference room.
Wu Xiaozu constantly communicates with various departments about the specific shooting of the film, so that departments can run in and contact with each other.
The filming of a big-budget production is not a simple matter.
It is initially estimated that more than 1,300 related staff will be used and hired for this film, and the employees involved will cover multiple regions, and the scheduling, accommodation, and personnel expenses of these staff will be a cumbersome work.
The work of the production crew, co-ordination, and planning will be very cumbersome. Any big-budget commercial film will ultimately be the result of a meticulous division of labor. Fortunately, Wu Xiaozu has filmed "Two Heroes" before, and this time the investment is larger, but he already has the experience to deal with it.
Wu Xiaozu is the chief director, and the entire crew will be divided into three director and executive groups.
Qiu Litao and Liu Weiqiao are respectively in charge of a director team, and Fei Cheng and Chen Jiachou are in charge of an executive team.
Chen Jiachou is a newcomer screenwriter and assistant director newly promoted by Qiu Litao, and some time ago he also had experience working in the director team in "The Green Hat King" and "Crazy Boy".
is different from the camera crew of "Suspect", this time, Wu Xiaozu adopted the working mode of a large crew. It is also the crew system commonly used in Hollywood to carry out work.
In Hollywood.
In fact, the main role of the director of photography is not simply to run the machine, a good director of photography needs to make the scene he and the director conceived together into a movie, decide the right time, place and atmosphere to use the lights, and choose the most suitable shooting angle, aperture and scene for the plot.
Many directors on Hong Kong Island who don't know how to make films often find a senior director of photography to work with. Unexpectedly, Wang Jiawei also chose Ao Zhijun to help him.
Ahem, Uncle Long's director of photography and executive director are also very high!
The DP will be responsible for three groups, namely the Photography Team, the Lighting Team and the Mechanical Team.
The camera crew includes the handheld, the focus officer, and the camera assistant who is responsible for changing the lens, and the small worker is responsible for handling the equipment and adjusting the equipment...... This time it will add up to more than 50 people, and this time there will be more than 5 "God of Gamblers".
The lighting group needs to be arranged according to the light map, and the light source should be assigned and adjusted to match the photographic shooting. There will be no less than 40 gaffers, illuminators, electricians, lighting assistants, technicians, and small workers combined.
The supervisor of the mechanical group generally needs to have rich shooting experience, be familiar with the operation and engineering foundation of camera and lighting, construction, aerial work, boom installation, large-scale action scenes, flag boards, sandbags, butterfly cloth frames, and block reflections must be familiar, and at the same time, they must also be responsible for the transportation of equipment for the crew, with the scale of "God of Gamblers", the largest number of people, basically more than 70 people.
"God of Gamblers" involves difficult professional filming such as car chases, gambling wheels, and helicopters, and the staff used is definitely not a small number.
Thankfully, this was 1988.
Moreover, director Wu Xiaozu has an upright character, and he will not learn from Chen Kexin at all, a straw hat will be reimbursed for thousands of yuan, and investors will be paid!
"The financial affairs of the crew must strictly control the flow of funds! In this movie, the purchase and procurement of various departments need to be handled in a process, and every account must be reviewed!"
Wu Xiaozu gave three orders and five strict instructions, smiled sincerely at He Fatpang next to him, and bowed lightly to the representative of the scholar company in Hong Kong.
He Pang Pang responded with a slight smile, his face was full of trust, and he only felt that Wu Xiaozu was really caring and serious when he was working, meticulous in his work, and completely professional.
The representative of the scholar company also nodded with satisfaction, admiring Director Wu's professionalism.
The movie "Suspect" is running for a box office of 30 million, and she has earned a lot of fame as an investor, and a large amount of profits will be credited. Recently, she Lao Dou talked about Wu Xiaozu and appreciated it.
"Pepsi, Mercedes-Benz, Emperor Jewellery & Watches...... These sponsored funds and products were implemented in a timely manner. Wu Xiaozu instructed the person in charge next to him, "The money must be credited to the special fund account before this Saturday." ”
The ability of hundreds of millions of directors to attract money is absolutely the best in Hong Kong! Such a big production of big directors + big stars is favored by many brands. When "Two Heroes" was filmed, it cooperated with Mercedes-Benz, high-end watches, and clothing brands, and the effect was gratifying.
In addition to this, PepsiCo has also joined the sponsorship list.
Before the filming of the drama "God of Gamblers" started, the number of sponsors had reached 13. Including the gambling boat spinach controlled by the He family. The income has come back to almost 10 million!
In this era, the radiation capacity of Hong Kong films is not weak in Asia. Especially with the booming economy on Hong Kong Island, major companies have also begun to focus on big-budget movies. Uncle Long's films have begun to become the favored partners of many sponsors and companies.
In this life, Director Wu's appeal is obviously not inferior to Uncle Long. This drama is known as a masterpiece with an investment of 35 million yuan and an actual cash of 28 million yuan.
This drama is worth the gamble that these companies are willing to take. What's more, compared to the advertising expenses invested by these companies in a year, this sponsorship is really insignificant. Compared with the wave of sponsorship fees that is about to appear in Hollywood, Wu Xiaozu is at most drizzle.
He also has a very good conscience, and only falsely reported 7 million.
On false reporting, it is still necessary to serve a certain skr and a certain Cai XX...... SKR released an album to hit the charts, and the sales on the first day were hundreds of times that of the second-place Lettie Gaga...... (Bold: hundreds of times ~~~~)
The American people were dumbfounded: Walter Electric Eel, what are you doing?
A certain Cai XX is even more awesome, and a certain wave of Weibo has hundreds of millions of retweets...... Weibo was registered with more than 300 million people at that time, which means that one out of three passers-by knew him and forwarded it to him...... I bought a watch last year......!
So, Wu scum still has a bottom line...
The crew discussed the preparations before filming in this room, and Wu Xiaozu led the main actors, as well as He Fatpang, Jiang Jiahua and the representative of the scholar to his office next to him.
Wang Xianxian, Gao Jimei, Teacher Zhang, and Miss Zhou chatted in Wu Xiaozu's office in a very "harmonious" atmosphere.
Guan Erqiu and the little aunt did not play a heavy role, Erqiu went to Dongying in advance to relax, and she was still eliminating the bad impact of being attacked by the group in the hotel lobby some time ago. The little aunt is very Buddhist, and she didn't set foot in Wang Xianxian's land at all...... is helping Xu Anhua to pull funds.
Wang Xianxian looked around at the smiling Gao Shaking Sister, the gentle Teacher Zhang, and the innocent Miss Zhou, and a lonely mood of a master arose.
Legs, no one is longer than themselves!
Ass, no one is more warped than himself!
Incisors, no one is more convex than themselves!
Ventriloquism, I will be ice, fire, trembling, wrapping, sucking, hooking, twisting, blowing, biting, drilling, trembling, slipping, scraping......
sighed in my heart, none of these people can fight.
Wang Xianxian shook a string of mansion keys to Dingge No. 1 on his fingers.
originally thought that the little aunt would come, but unfortunately the little aunt didn't give Wang Xianxian a chance to show off her martial arts at all.
Wu Xiaozu placed all the actors with a smile on his face, and began to talk to them about the details that each role needs to pay attention to. Most of them have cooperated with Wu Xiaozu at least once, and the only ones who have not cooperated are Zhang Min and Wan Ziyu.
Wu Xiaozu also deliberately told the two about the things that need to be paid attention to.
"Acting is a science, and preparing now is just the most basic foundation for your performance. I hope you will familiarize yourself with the script in advance. If you have any questions or concerns, you can always communicate with me, whether it is here or in the crew. Wu Xiaozu glanced at everyone earnestly.
Zhang Min looked nervous, Zhou Huimin didn't know what to say, only Gao Li's red face showed that he understood, and he was worthy of being a person who had gone through bumps and was transparent and knew how to measure!
"Director Wu, I don't think my character seems to be a bad guy in the traditional sense......" Wan Zixuan asked with a slight hesitation. In Hong Kong Island movies at this time, the audience basically knows who the bad guy is as soon as he appears.
However, the "gentleman" he plays does not seem to be a bad guy in the traditional sense.
"Every character has two sides, and a bad guy doesn't have to be vicious, right? I want you to understand this character with the mentality of playing a good guy. ”
Wu Xiaozu thought about it and gave him a little inspiration, "You can speculate with the positive and negative sides of different ideas. ”
Wan Zixuan nodded thoughtfully.
He really likes the setting of this villain.
Wu Xiaozu wouldn't be brain-dead to make a villain like the "corpse girl" sister-in-law in his previous life, it's too unstylish!?
If the God of Gambling is at this level, it is estimated that Ni Yongxiao can play a bunch of deaths...... And the God of Gamblers nonsense is too much...... You have to show off your $80,000 LCD glasses...... What did Bausch & Lomb say?
Especially the gambling game is untenable...... Both of them cheated, why should they say that the old man is even more despicable? Wang Jingshengsheng made the gambling god very lo...... Zhou Runfa propped up a drama.
At this level, the income of the ticket warehouse in other cities is as high as 100 million! This time is really the golden age of Hong Kong films.
"Knock-"
There was a sudden knock on the door.
"Please come in-" Wu Xiaozu was chatting with Zhou Yanfa, Zhang Min, and Wan Zixuan about the relationship between the characters, listening to the knock on the door, and casually responded.
Outside the door.
Ye Yuqing unbuttoned the windbreaker and threw it on the table on the side, revealing the cool dress inside, touching up her makeup in the small mirror, just when she heard Wu Xiaozu's voice, her beautiful eyes were happy-
“……”
“……”
“……”
Wang Xianxian was talking to Zhou Huimin and Gao Lihong about filming, when he suddenly felt a fox smell coming from him, and suddenly raised his head.
His eyes were still smiling, but he suddenly stared at him!
Ye Yuqing walked into the house with a smile, and the whole person froze in place all of a sudden.
There's something wrong with this plot...... There are too many people!
"Is there a tear?" Wang Xianxian stroked her hair, stepped on the cat's steps and walked forward to entertain with a smile.
The heart is full of fighting emotions.
The old lady didn't come in vain, and finally let the old lady meet a bewitching slut!
"Darling, is she also an actor in "Gambling God"?" Wang Xianxian glanced at Wu Xiaozu with a chuckle, and smiled very intimately.
Remember.
Don't deny it directly at this time, even if you deny it directly, you will still be considered to want to cover up!
Director Wu hasn't seen any scenes?
Seeing Wang Zu Amaran throw out a mortal question - Wu Xiaozu responded instantly.
"Who?" Wu Xiaozu glanced at Ye Yuqing suspiciously, frowning, "Who are you?"
Who are you?!
Ye Yuqing's smile froze directly on her face...... Don't you know the old lady's face, don't you know the old lady's breasts?
Wang Xianxian looked at Wu Xiaozu frowning and looking impatiently at the indifferent appearance of this bewitching slut in front of him, and chose to believe Wu Xiaozu, and instantly retracted the doubts in his heart.
After Wu Xiaozu asked, he couldn't pretend that nothing had happened and continued to chat with Wan Ziyu and them. On the contrary, he took the initiative to stand up, looked at Ye Yuqing with open eyes, and glanced at Wang Xianxian again, as if he asked again: Your friend?
Then he frowned, revealing a little annoyance, as if he was saying to Wang Xianxian: During working hours, don't let friends come at will!
Wang Zuyuan was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly took the initiative to shake his head slightly to Wu Xiaozu, and explained with his eyes: It's not my friend! It's none of my business...... Looking at Wu Xiaozu's frowning appearance, the fairy goddess was pitiful...... I didn't react at all, so I coaxed myself first......
To deal with the fairy goddess, Wu Xiaozu held the handle!
"I ...... I'm ...... I'm Ye Zhiming's sister - my brother asked me to invite you to his office. Ye Yuqing looked at Wu Xiaozu's indifferent glance at herself, blessed her soul, and hurriedly found an excuse.
The crisis is over!
Wu scum did a good job of picking himself out of the whirlpool.
