In today's era, it is almost impossible to see that it only costs three or four million to make a movie, not to mention the domestic leader of Tianxi Film and Television Company, even if it is a film shot by an ordinary director, its cost is rarely less than 10 million, only pure literary films or movies with many indoor dramas, the cost can be controlled to the minimum, and the premise is that the actor who makes the film is not famous, otherwise the salary of a famous actor alone will be several million, if it is a popular actor, one or two million can't be beaten, and the increase in film investment is not unrelated to the high salary of actors。

This is a common phenomenon in today's film and television industry, and some directors of Tianxi Film and Television Company apply for the amount of investment, which is actually similar to the shooting cost of most directors in the market, and if you look at the entire market, the amount they ask for is not very much.

But Guo Dalu hates the current behavior of making big investments as soon as he makes a film.

He made a big investment in his own films, because he knew that his film would definitely be a hit, and if he invested 100 million, there would be billions or even tens of billions of returns, so he could invest boldly without worrying about the box office problems in the later stage.

However, these directors are different from Guo Dalu, some directors have a hard time recognizing themselves, and every time they feel that their films are not well filmed, it is because of investment, but they rarely consider the issue of their directing ability, and they do not have a clear understanding of themselves.

A good story needs an excellent director to really present it, otherwise no matter how wonderful the story is and how full the characters are, but when you meet a garbage director, you still can't make a good work.

And an excellent director, even if it is a very vulgar story, can still shoot tricks, and the old bottle is filled with new wine, and it still has a sense of freshness.

These directors hired by Tianxi Film and Television have the ability, but they are just eager to do a big job, so they want to invest a lot and make a big movie, because some of the blockbusters shot by Guo Dalu before stimulated them, a movie can have tens of billions of income, and they can become famous in the world, if these people are not envious, it is absolutely fake.

Guo Dalu also understands the thoughts of these people, but understanding does not mean that he supports it, and after hearing the question that Ma Cheng said, he took the matter on his head: "Take me as an example, I have only made small-budget movies in the past two years, and my investment is limited to 10 million. I don't want so much investment, I want to see which of them has the face to add?"

Ma Cheng was a little uneasy: "Guo Ye, how can you compare with them? You make movies and television, as long as it is not less than one billion, you can toss it! Don't say that the movies you make make make money, even if you don't make money, we are willing to lose money! Your strength is here, if you just make a small investment movie, not a big movie, to be honest, I am really a little reluctant in my heart." ”

He smiled and said: "How much money do you have to delay? We can't get along with money, can we? If you make a big film, it will make billions of profits, and although a small film can make money, it is much worse!"

Guo Dalu glared and said: "Why are there so many things? Domestic directors, the best way out is to shoot small-budget films, they must first pay more attention to the script, learn to tell stories first, and then talk about big investment." If you can't even tell the story well, a big investment has a bird's use. When they are grinded, their hearts have sunk, and then we will talk about increasing investment. ”

Ma Cheng nodded and said, "That's also good, just listen to you!"

After he told Guo Dalu's decision in the company, it immediately caused an uproar.

As the world's top director and actor, Guo Dalu's investment in filming movies is controlled within 10 million, how can others be embarrassed to be higher than Guo Dalu?

In the eyes of everyone, Guo Dalu is clearly trying to block everyone's mouths!

But even if they knew that Guo Dalu was doing this on purpose, there was nothing anyone could do, with Guo Dalu, a-stirring stick, everyone really couldn't open their mouths and ask for a lot of money.

People don't want so much investment for an international director to make a movie, how can they, little-known little directors, have the qualifications to surpass others?

After setting such a rule, Guo Dalu began the shooting of the next movie, and his filming this time is also a low-budget work, and he still shoots in the name of the director "Beicheng".

Since the huge success of the last small-budget film "Crazy Stone", the name of the emerging director "Beicheng" has been remembered by many people and has become the most representative young film and television director in recent times, but Beicheng has never appeared in any public except after making movies, which has caused news media people to always be curious about the true identity of this director.

But whether it is the people from Tianxi Film and Television Company or the actors who participated in the filming of the stone, they are all silent, no matter how the media reporters ask, they are unwilling to disclose it.

Now Beicheng has become the most mysterious guy in the film and television industry.

If Guo Dalu makes another movie in the name of Beicheng at this time, the influence will definitely be much greater than the filming of "Crazy Stone".

Since he said that he wanted to shoot a small-budget film, Guo Dalu would never break his promise, and he decided to control the shooting cost at about six million this time, and the film shot this time is not a comedy, but a horror film.

The title of this film is "Saw Horror".

To shoot this film, Guo Dalu is still a newcomer.

Huang Shi and others, who had become popular through "Crazy Stone" before, already had a lot of influence, and at this time, they should have been praised while the iron was hot, but Guo Dalu obviously didn't want to do this, and he didn't bother to do this, Huang Shi and others are now famous, and their salary has risen to one or two million, even if they can participate in Guo Dalu's filming for free, Guo Dalu will not be strong.

He said that if you shoot a low-budget movie, then you really make a small-budget work and invite some popular actors, the cost will definitely rise, even if Huang Shi and others don't want money, it won't work, which is not in line with Guo Dalu's concept.

Therefore, when the two actors in the Tianxi training class were selected by Guo Dalu, they both felt an expression of disbelief.

Among these two people, one of them is Zhou Juncai, that is, Shen Mingcheng's old friend who asked Guo Dalu to take care of him, at this time Zhou Juncai has been in the training class for a while, and he thinks that his acting skills have improved greatly.

Another actor is a middle-aged man, his name is He Minghan, an old actor who has just been admitted to the training class, but in the training class, he is a newcomer.

When the two of them were picked by Guo Dalu, they were both surprised and delighted, during this time in training, in addition to playing tricks is to hone their acting skills, seeing that the classmates around them are developing well one by one, if you want to say that you are not in a hurry, it is a lie.

But the actor industry is not in a hurry.

If an actor wants to be famous, he must not only have good acting skills, but also have a good script, and even more importantly, a good director, and the most important thing is to have good luck.

Some actors are not good at acting, but they just encountered a good script, and the task in this script happened to be suitable for him to play, and the timing of the screening was very suitable, so he suddenly became popular and became a hot star.

And some actors have been conscientious for decades, their acting skills are also good, and they have won a lot of titles, but they just can't be famous, and when they are really famous, they are already fifty or sixty years old, and they have become old.

Many actors are like this, they have spent half their lives, and when they are old, the old trees bloom and are known.

But by this time, people are already dying, and no matter how prosperous they are, there is no longer much meaning in their lives.

People are dying, no matter how popular they are, there is another fart.

It's better to be famous sooner!

This sentence is most appropriate for actors.

Now Guo Dalu has chosen Zhou Juncai and He Minghan to be the roles in his movie, which makes both of them have an illusion, that is, they are definitely going to be famous!
