Chapter 609: Small-scale cooperation
When Cheng Xin said this, she looked at Jiang Xia and said it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info倩η±novel.23txt.
Jiang Xia responded: "I won't give anyone my script, and in the second part of God of Gamblers, I will play the leading role." There's no way I'm going to work under Guo Zhilong, so I'll shoot it. β
"This year, you are going to shoot all over the city with golden armor, and you will continue to shoot the second part of the God of Gamblers?" asked Cheng Xin.
"Isn't it okay?" Jiang Xia asked rhetorically, "The shooting of the Golden Armor is estimated to be impossible to start in the first half of the year, and I have at least three months to prepare for the gambling saint." β
"Gambling saint?" Cheng Xin wondered.
"The second part of God of Gamblers. Jiang Xia explained.
"Isn't the second part of the God of Gamblers called God of Gamblers 2?" asked Cheng Xin.
Jiang Xia said: "I never said that I wanted to shoot God of Gamblers 2, I was talking about making the God of Gamblers trilogy, which is three movies, related, but not the same protagonist." In the second part of the gambling saint, I will play the leading role. β
"Okay, you're in charge. Cheng Xin said, "However, the script, I hope to see it within two weeks, is there a problem?"
Jiang Xia scratched his head and said, "Yes, I need the screenwriter team to help change the script." β
"Swallow, immediately notify all the screenwriters to come to work tomorrow. Cheng Xin instructed Xue Yan directly.
After Xue Yan heard this, she immediately turned around and left with the phone, and hurried to call to inform her.
"The company doesn't have any funds now, right?" Jiang Xia asked, "What does Guo Zhilong think, where did he get the money to shoot a gambling film for him?
Cheng Xin said: "The profits of the God of Gamblers are too big, it is impossible to invest all of them in the filming of the Golden Armor, and the remaining funds can support the shooting of many movies." β
"So what? The filming of the Golden Armor has so far been just a budget, and no one can be sure how much money will be spent on the shooting. Jiang Xia said, "What if the funds are tight at that time?"
"If you're really strapped for money, then I'll question where your money goes. Cheng Xin said, "How big is the amount of money in the God of Gamblers, then you also have a number, such a large amount of funds, if it is not enough, then how much box office does your gold armor have to recover the cost?"
"Recovering costs doesn't have to be at home. Jiang Xia said, "Hengying should have a North American channel, you can try it." β
"Golden armor?" Cheng Xin asked, "or is it a gamble...... Saint Gambling Saint?"
"The city is full of golden armor!" Jiang Xia said, "The cost is too high, and the risk is a bit big just by relying on the domestic box office." The cost of Troubled Times 1 was not that big, and then it succeeded, and Troubled Times 2 dared to invest so much, because it was certain that the cost would be recovered. The cost of the golden armor in the city is about 200 million, and it will take at least one billion to return to the cost. To be honest, there is an unexpected factor for the God of Gamblers to break one billion, and the gold armor in the city may not be able to break one billion, I'm not sure. For the sake of cost, try to impact North America, and you can get 10 million box office to fill a lot. β
"I try my best, but it needs to come out first. Cheng Xin thought about it and said.
"It doesn't matter, the city is full of golden armor, the preliminary preparation work this year will take more than half a year, the shooting will be smooth, and it will take more than two months, and the whole will be completed, plus some special effects or something, and the real production will be completed, and it will take next year. So, what we have is time. Jiangxia said.
"So long?" asked Cheng Xin.
"It's still going well, but if there are some other surprises, we may not be able to finish filming this year. Jiang Xia said, "I'm slow to make movies, and with such a big cost, I have to keep improving." β
Cheng Xin said: "Listen to you, as long as it doesn't cost much, you can get it." However, the gambling saint has to finish filming first, and if the golden armor can't be on the New Year file this year, you also have to get a movie for the New Year, as much as possible is the third part of the God of Gamblers. β
"You mean three movies a year?" Jiang Xia asked, "Exaggerating." I have to star in the next two parts of the God of Gamblers. The city is full of golden armor, and I have to play it. Let me direct, write and act in three movies a year, Mr. Cheng, this work pressure is a bit too much, right?"
"It's a little big, come at your pace. Cheng Xin said, "It's nothing, I'll leave first, tomorrow when the screenwriter team comes, you hurry up to revise the script of the gambling saint, and after the revision is completed, you will finish filming as soon as possible,"
"Okay, I'll go back too, I haven't gone home yet. Jiangxia said.
The two separated, Jiang Xia took the elevator down, Cheng Xin took the elevator to the office first, and Xue Yan didn't know when she had followed Cheng Xin.
In the elevator, Cheng Xin closed her eyes and did not move, seemingly a little unhappy.
"Mr. Cheng. Xue Yan wanted to speak and stopped.
Say. Cheng Xin said, her eyes did not open.
Xue Yan said: "Mr. Cheng, I ask a word as a friend, is it okay?"
"Asked. Cheng Xin opened her eyes and said.
"Why does it have to be Jiang Xia?" Xue Yan asked, she was really puzzled, even if Jiang Xia was Cheng Xin's first boyfriend, there was no need to be so obsessed with it after so many years, and still wanted to hold Jiang Xia by her side so much, and wanted to renew her relationship with Jiang Xia so much, is Jiang Xia so good?
"I like him. Cheng Xin said lightly.
"But he's married. Xue Yan said.
"So what? You mean that I can't compete with You Fangfei?" Cheng Xin turned his head to look at Xue Yan and said, "If it's Gongshan, I may really not be able to compete, but You Fangfei, I don't believe how deep his relationship with You Fangfei is." Except for Gong Shan, I am not afraid of anyone. β
"Why?" Xue Yan asked.
Cheng Xin said: "Childhood sweetheart, this is really not just talking, if Gong Shan is with Jiang Xia, no one can shake their feelings, no one, I can't." β
"Then why do you still like Jiang Xia, didn't you break up?" Xue Yan asked.
"Who said we broke up?" Cheng Xin asked rhetorically.
Xue Yan was stunned, didn't break up? Why is the attitude of these two people so strange now? Why did Jiang Xia marry You Fangfei without breaking up? Why didn't Cheng Xin go to Jiang Xia when he returned to China without breaking up?
Cheng Xin said: "The two of us have never said that we broke up, now, we are just making conflicts, and when the contradictions are straightened out, he is mine, I will not let anyone take him away, he can only be mine." β
Xue Yan looked at Cheng Xin, quite incomprehensible to the emotions, in her opinion, it is impossible for feelings to be so blind, so blind self-confidence, I really don't know where Cheng Xin came from.
"However, Mr. Cheng, the way you treat Jiang Xia is a little inappropriate. Xue Yan pondered for a moment and said.
"Oh?" Cheng Xin asked.
"You're a little too cold, and you're always discussing work with Jiang Xia, not to mention anything else, how do you let him know what you're thinking? At least you have to let him know? Now I feel that you two are not even friends, and the relationship between superiors and subordinates is a little too clear. Xue Yan said what she thought.
Cheng Xin was silent for a moment, and then said, "I know." β
Xue Yan didn't understand what Cheng Xin meant by not understanding this, but she didn't say anything more, reminding Cheng Xin that it was already overstepping, and if she said more, she would definitely be annoyed.
Cheng Xin arrived at the office, turned on all the lights, and then began to make tea, whenever she needed to be calm, she liked to make tea, the tea was fragrant, boiling water was boiling, and Cheng Xin began to carry out the process.
Xue Yan didn't enter the office, she was sorting out some of Cheng Xin's arrangements and handling some other things. Cheng Xin has two secretaries, the division of labor is not the same, Xue Yan is the personal secretary, mainly responsible for arranging each of Cheng Xin's temporary requirements, and then arranging these temporary requirements one by one, and communicating with Cheng Xin's other secretary. The main job of Cheng Xin's other secretary is to be responsible for Cheng Xin's itinerary and plan the itinerary, so that Cheng Xin can work more efficiently.
Jiang Xia came home and started to pack up his things, and he didn't come back for a while, even if he had a part-time worker to clean up, he had to tidy up well.
After tossing again, Jiang Xia lay on the bed and called You Fangfei.
"It's over?" asked You Fangfei.
"Well, when you get home and pack your things, are you at home?
"I'm already asleep. What did you say in the meeting?" You Fangfei asked, "I called you over in such a hurry." β
That is, I looked at the progress of the props and artwork, and the main thing is to determine the general direction, and there are some places that need to be modified in advance, otherwise it will not be changed if it is really made. Jiang Xia said.
"It's also said that preparing for a blockbuster is much harder, and it's also an experience for you. You Fangfei said, "Experience it well, when we want to shoot a blockbuster, you have to guide the whole process." β
"Now I'm also the whole guide. Jiang Xia smiled, "I'll tell you something funny, remember what I said before about the one surnamed Guo?"
"Guo, what is the assistant director called? Guo ...... Guo Zhilong?" You Fangfei thought for a moment and asked uncertainly.
Jiang Xia said: "Yes, it's him." I have almost prepared the script for the second part of the God of Gamblers, and I still need to revise it to a certain extent, however, this Guo Zhilong actually asked Cheng Xin to make this movie, and the reason given was also very strong, saying that I wanted to shoot the golden armor, and I definitely didn't have time to shoot this, so he shared the work. Tsk, look at how high people's consciousness is, and they want to be beaten. β
You Fangfei laughed and said, "What you said, hahaha, did you give it?"
"How can it be given to him, but I want to be the starring actor in this play, let him be the director for me?" Do you think it is possible?" Jiang Xia said, "I still want to shoot my script, I want to be beautiful, and beauty will not kill him." β
"Then you decided to make two movies a year, and there is a blockbuster among them?" You Fangfei said, "Can you do it?"
"It's okay, in fact, it's not too difficult, the blockbuster is a little more difficult, and there are a little more scenes. The gambling film is easy to shoot, and it can be produced in two months at most, and the blockbuster will not start shooting at that time. Jiang Xia said, "It's a little tired, but it's good to get used to it." β
"Be careful over there, don't get sick or catch a cold or something. You Fangfei instructed.
"Rest assured, I can take care of myself. Jiang Xia said with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xia went to sleep, and he had to continue to work from tomorrow.
Xiangjiang is a city that never sleeps, and during the Chinese New Year, it is also the peak season for tourism, and all the venues are full of people.
Guo Zhilong had already drunk a lot of wine, his face was red, and he said to Wu Ang with a glass of wine in his hand: "Mr. Wu, I will give you another glass, if this thing can be done, you will be my great benefactor." β
"Director Guo is polite, what you really want to thank is not me, it's Brother Chu and Brother Xia, come, let's have another drink." Wu Ang raised his glass and said.
Xia Yunjie and Chu Yi next to them also smiled and raised their wine glasses, clinking glasses with them to drink.
"Brother Chu and Brother Xia are both talents, and they are obviously involved in the creation of the God of Gamblers, why don't you have your name in the end? Guo Zhilong looked distressed.
Wu Ang also said: "Yes, the two brothers, it's so worthless, why are the names of Jiang Xia's? So, let's just do it alone, isn't it just a gambling film? Both of them participated in the creation of the God of Gamblers, I don't believe that with the ability of the two of them, they can be given by Jiang Xia's hairy boy?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Wu, Director Guo, we also have experience in gambling films, isn't it just to add a little gambling factor to our traditional things, he shoots the God of Gamblers, we shoot the King of Gamblers, he shoots poker, we shoot mahjong. I finished writing the script with Brother Chu, just waiting for Mr. Wu's news, as soon as Mr. Wu's project is established, we can start filming. "Xia Yunjie has a big tongue and drinks a lot.
Wu Ang patted his chest and said, "No problem, absolutely no problem." This year's God of Gamblers box office exploded, the company has money, and it must invest in many movies, just at the level of Director Guo and Brother Xia and Brother Chu, how can they grab 30 million. I just got the news that the golden armor may not be able to catch up with the Chinese New Year stalls, huh-huh?
"Really?" Guo Zhilong's eyes lit up.
"How can what Mr. Wu said be false? Director Guo, this is your fault. Chu Yi said, he didn't drink less.
The four of them have long hooked up together, Chu Yi and Xia Yunjie are very angry, why did Jiang Xia only write his name on the screenwriter? Didn't they contribute? It just so happened that Wu Ang came up, he had a good relationship with Guo Zhilong, and after Guo Zhilong was kicked out of the crew by Jiang Xia, he had been thinking about making a comeback, and the four of them hit it off and began to prepare a new script a long time ago.
As for Guo Zhilong's proposal to shoot the second part of the God of Gamblers, he didn't take it seriously, this is Wu Ang's strategy, let him mention it, so that when Guo Zhilong shoots it himself, it is convenient for Wu Ang to ask Cheng Xin for money.
"Alas, just now I Xue Yan notified me to go to work overtime tomorrow, saying that it was to revise the script of the second part of the God of Gamblers. You said that Jiang Xia was also brain-dead, writing a script, and putting the date in the late eighties, and he had to revise it to our modern times, why did you say he was like this?" Xia Yunjie said.
Chu Yi said: "The level is not enough, no, Mr. Wu, you have seen Huang, what is Huang?"
"Golden armor. Guo Zhilong said.
"Yes, Huang Jinjia, how about Mr. Wu's script?" Chu Yi asked.
Wu Ang said: "I can't say more, even if it's our brotherhood, you can't say more, you all understand." However, this script is really good, I'm just afraid he won't be able to shoot it. β
"Huh?" Xia Yunjie was surprised.
"Don't mention him, don't mention him, let's still talk about ours, come on, come on, do one, I wish our movies a high box office. Guo Zhilong shouted.
"Dry. β
The cups of the four men collided again.
