"Boss Gu, Xiangjiang Dongxing Film and Television Entertainment Company has agreed to invest 20 million Huaxia coins, and you just agreed to invest 20 million to shoot this movie. Now, let's discuss the main actors, what do you think?"

Peng Yichen and Wang Jiawei appeared in Kyoto Huimin Film and Television Company with dark circles under their eyes and the script they wrote day and night.

The financier behind Wang Jiawei, Dongxing Film and Television, had already agreed to fund the filming of this movie before the script was determined.

It's not that Dongxing Film and Television is really so relieved about the combination of Wang Jiawei and Peng Yichen.

They still want to take advantage of the opportunity to shoot this film and cooperate with Huimin Film and Television, which is the best in mainland commercial films.

As for Huimin Film and Television, I am still very relieved about Peng Yichen's screenwriting level.

"Groundhog Day" has just been released recently, and in more than a week, it won more than 80 million box office, in addition to the early publicity of this film and Yu Jing's box office appeal, Zhang Xingping's delicate shooting techniques and Peng Yichen's wonderful script also contributed to it.

Coupled with Peng Yichen's own acting skills and popularity, he has been on the rise at a rapid pace during this time.

Huimin Film and Television is also very interested in the movie he and Wang Jiawei collaborated on.

It's just that for kung fu movies, this kind of genre movies that have completely declined, are not very reassuring.

So it wasn't until the script came out and I saw the commercial value in the script that I finally made a decision and agreed to invest 20 million to co-produce this movie with Dongxing Film and Television Company.

Peng Yichen, as the screenwriter, assistant director and male lead actor of the film, is allowed to invest no more than 5 million to join the film.

The investment in the film is basically in place, at least 45 million, and if it is not enough in the later stage, at least 15 million can be added.

Gu Jiahui, as the boss of Huimin Film and Television, must personally inquire about such a large investment project.

Therefore, today, Wang Jiawei and Peng Yichen came to Gu Jiahui together to discuss matters related to the preparation of the film.

Gu Jiahui thought for a while, "Although this movie is not the kind of big production with an investment of more than 100 million, the actors must not be too weak." One of the male protagonists must still be played by Xiao Peng, and the other male protagonist, I didn't think of a good candidate for a while. As for the two heroines, the female policeman will use Li Yuqi from our company. ”

Wang Jiawei said with a smile: "That's right, Dongxing Film and Television recommended an actress named Yang Qianhui, she can play another heroine." ”

Gu Jiahui nodded, "No problem." As for the rest of the actors, there are more action scenes, mainly played by Xiangjiang actors. The rest of the small roles, we Huimin Film and Television have all covered. At that time, we can be responsible for all the publicity and distribution costs in the mainland. ”

Wang Jiawei has no opinion: "I have no problem, you can negotiate with Dongxing Company." ”

Peng Yichen suddenly spoke at this time, "There is one actor left, I suggest Zhang Zheng, an actor from Bay Island."

Gu Jiahui said: "This actor is very famous in the mainland, why did you choose him?"

"He has good acting skills, he has a ruthlessness in his bones, and I heard that he used to learn Bajiquan specifically for a movie, which is very suitable for our movie. Moreover, he has a good reputation in Bay Island and Xiangjiang, which is very helpful for the promotion of the film in the foreign market. ”

The reason why Peng Yichen used Zhang Zheng was that he appreciated an actor who was very similar to him in his previous life.

And Zhang Zheng in this life, although he has not acted in "One Generation, Sect, Master", he has played a Bajiquan master in another movie, and he has learned Bajiquan from a big boxer.

Asking him to act in this movie with a lot of fight scenes can save a lot of effort.

Gu Jiahui smacked his touch, "Okay, just use him, I'll call someone to contact his agent." ”

The main actors are basically determined, and the rest is the formation of the crew.

Although Wang Jiawei has been a director in Xiangjiang for many years, he has always used a group of people from Dongxing.

This time it is a co-production with Huimin Film and Television, and it is definitely impossible to use all the people of Xiangjiang.

And this time, he wanted to know more about the filming environment of mainland films.

So in addition to photography and art direction, he has to bring his own people into the group, and other positions are handed over to Huimin Film and Television to decide.

Peng Yichen has his own plans for this matter.

Before returning to the mainland, Wu Tianliang, the old director of Chang'an Film Studio, once called him.

The content of the call is very simple, that is, I hope Peng Yichen can receive it, in addition to those old actors, the more than 20 staff members in the studio who followed him to shoot "Twelve Warriors".

Chang'an Film Studio now only has 2 or 3 film shooting tasks every year, and it must be a special year like the 60th National Day to have so many movies to be made.

The studio's original thousands of behind-the-scenes film workers have now lost more than 600 people.

But even so, studios often fail to pay their salaries.

These people followed Peng Yichen to make movies, and the salary plus red envelopes they got in a few months was higher than their salary for three or four years.

In this contrast, who wants to stay in the film studio.

In the end, all these people summed up and went to Wu Tianliang and asked him to tell Peng Yichen if he could follow Peng Yichen in the future.

Wu Tianliang was very angry at first, but soon reluctantly accepted their request, and the current situation of the film studio is like this.

Let these skilled and capable film workers stay in the factory every day to catch lice, Wu Tianliang is also very sad to watch.

It's better to let these people follow Peng Yichen and continue to contribute their strength to the movie.

More importantly, with Peng Yichen, their future life will definitely be much better than staying in the factory.

After figuring out this, Wu Tianliang also put on an old face and called Peng Yichen and asked him to accept these people.

But Peng Yichen doesn't have his own company, how can he accept these people.

He also had a hard time for a while.

discussed this matter with his agent Sun Yizou, and Lao Sun gave him a suggestion, that is, to set up his own studio.

In Europe and the United States, it has long been commonplace for celebrities to set up their own studios, but it is still a rare thing in China.

Peng Yichen has the experience of his previous life and knows the benefits of celebrities opening their own studios, while relying on the big tree of the original company, he can have more space for personal development and cultivate his own team.

For Peng Yichen, it is impossible for him to open a company personally, it is too complicated and troublesome, which is contrary to his original intention of being an actor.

But I have always relied on the development of the company, and many of the movies I want to shoot must be reviewed by the company.

If the movie has always been a box office hit, of course it's fine, but one day the movie doesn't do well at the box office, what should you do?

So he accepted Lao Sun's suggestion and took the opportunity to co-produce a movie with Dongxing to bring in the brothers from Chang'an Film Studio who wanted to follow him in to participate in the filming.

It can be regarded as a clarity with Huimin Film and Television Company that he wants to open a personal studio.

Gu Jiahui seemed to have been waiting for this day for a long time, and did not hesitate, and happily agreed to Peng Yichen's request to open his own studio.

After all, Peng Yichen's current development momentum is too strong, and it is not unacceptable for Huimin Film and Television to attract this talent to stay in the company and allow him to open his own studio.

The only condition is that after the studio is established, the company must be 50% owned by the company.

But the company will hand over all the management rights to Peng Yichen.

With the support of the company, Peng Yichen was relieved, and a phone call called the brothers from Chang'an Film Studio to Kyoto.

A few days later, after the formalities were completed.

A personal studio called "Tatsujing" was established silently in a small office building in Kyoto.

The major shareholder of the company is Huimin Film and Television Company, which invests 5 million cash in the studio and accounts for 50% of the shares.

Of the remaining 50% of the shares, Peng Yichen accounted for 30%, Yu Jing, who invested 1 million shares, gave 10% to Yu Jing, who invested 1 million shares, gave 5% to Sun Yizou, who served as the studio manager, and gave 5% to his good brother Huang Bo.

For more than a year, because of "Twelve Warriors", Huang Bo can be regarded as a well-known acting school in China, and the film appointments are continuous. It's no problem to take out 500,000 shares.

Of course, the first employees of the studio were the behind-the-scenes staff of more than 20 crews of Chang'an Film Studio.

On the day the studio was established, Peng Yichen took Yu Jing, Huang Bo, Lao Sun and more than 20 staff members out for a meal together, and the studio was officially established.

The next day, he handed over all these staff members to Wang Jiawei, and they had to cooperate with Wang Jiawei to complete the formation of the crew and prepare for the filming of the movie.

Peng Yichen himself, Zhang Zheng, who had just arrived in Kyoto from Bay Island, and several other actors who had fighting action scenes in other movies, went to a master of national arts that Wang Jiawei had contacted to train orthodox national martial arts movements.
