Chapter 910 - Practicing (2-in-1)
Cheers Bar, a star bar.
Because Huang Bo brings people to play from time to time, the business of this bar is getting better and better, and because of the number of appearances here, the guests are a little accustomed to the actors and stars who appear here and are not easily disturbed.
Wu Jing was the first time he came back here, and he was a little apprehensive and depressed, after all, he had already traveled to so many homes.
"Huang Bo, is this Forrest Gump easy to talk to?" Wu Jing took a sip, and his mood was a little irritable.
"It's easy to say, he's the stupid son of the landlord's family. Huang Bo smiled, "But if I really don't have liquidity, I will invest directly." This matter, find him reliable. ”
Wu Jing nodded silently, he had already managed to attract investment from various companies before the filming of "Wolf Warrior 2", which he wrote, directed and acted in, and he never thought that half of the money would not be enough, so he had no choice but to come out and continue to look for money.
Like Huang Bo's words just now, he knows that it is not an excuse, the money of actors and stars has either entered the real estate market, or they have gone to play finance, and it is rare to have a lot of liquidity.
Even if it is a film and television company, the current gameplay is also in the early stage, and a few companies are pulled to play together.
However, like this, when a crew that is filming in the middle of the film is taken out all of a sudden, the film and television company is very cautious, and there is also a short-term capital flow problem.
Forrest Gump should be an exception.
What kind of garden did he build with all his surplus money?
"Hey, this guy is here. Huang Bo's voice interrupted Wu Jing's thoughts, making his expression tense involuntarily.
"Yo, Brother Bo, I haven't seen you for a while, and you're two years older. Gan Jing walked into the bar lightly and smiled back at the eyes around him, "Hey, Brother Jing, it's the first time you meet you, it's like you've come out of the TV." ”
Wu Jing got up and smiled, and shook his hands: "Then I see that you just walked out of the big screen, or walked down with the trophy in your hand." ”
What is called the back wave of the Yangtze River pushing the front wave, this is it.
Wu Jing acted in his first work in 95, at that time, Forrest Gump probably didn't have any concept of the word actor, but now, the actor is the president of the company, and he is the first person in Chinese films.
"Sit down, you two are polite, come, drink, Wu Jing is a good amount of alcohol, Forrest Gump, you have an opponent this time." Huang Bo laughed and said, "When will you come to "Extreme Challenge" again, you will have to perform and drink." ”
Gan Jing waved his hand and refused: "That can't be done, destroy my character in the audience's heart!"
Huang Bo was amused by him: "You have a fart character, why don't you say that you don't set people up when you scare people on Weibo?"
"Can it be the same, my Weibo is all off-the-field things, I have a lot of shots on variety shows, I can play it once in a while, and I can play it every day. Gan Jing drank a glass of beer and rinsed his mouth, and saw Wu Jing's slightly twisted expression, so he didn't want to ink, so he asked directly.
"What happened today? I was going to lie in bed and watch a movie and go to bed. Gan Jing seemed to guide casually.
"Ouch, what movie are you watching? Your own "Scorching Sun"?" Huang Bo was not in a hurry.
"An American song and dance film of the 90s, just look at it, don't I have a room dedicated to videotapes, and I can take a disc from it. Gan Jing said that if he didn't have something to stay up late, he would often watch a movie and then go to sleep.
Some movies can be more and more energetic, and some have a hypnotic effect, but he doesn't have to see anything from them, he thinks it's quite interesting to just watch movies.
Huang Bo took a small sip of draft beer and said: "I really want to talk to you about something today, isn't Wu Jing filming here, the book is pretty good, I originally wanted to invest some, but I just bought a house in the capital, and my money is a little tight." No, I'm going to talk to you. ”
Wu Jing spoke: "Forrest Gump, this time it's really a bit presumptuous, I didn't want to bother, but the crew found that the budget was a little tight halfway through filming, I can do whatever I want, but if the movie can't be finished, it will be a waste." ”
Gan respected, it turned out that this is the origin.
Sometimes the film budget is not taken seriously, and some big directors will give a low budget first when looking for a film and television company, and only ask for additional investment after filming starts, and the film and television company can only continue to chase after it.
However, this is obviously not the case on Wu Jing's side.
"Is it halfway through the shooting?" Gan Jing raised his glass and touched Wu Jing, "The budget is tight, and the company must not be in a hurry to pull funds into it?
Wu Jing smiled bitterly: "There are many companies that have invested, so they are not in a hurry, so they want other companies to invest first." However, the crew and actors all have schedules, and it is really difficult to delay. ”
"How many?" asked Gan Jing curiously.
"14 homes. Wu Jing gave an accurate number.
Gan Jing was taken aback, 14?
Hmm, there are as many as 14 that don't have a 100-day red ???
"You're too much. Gan Jing sighed, "How much is the total investment, and what is the name of the crew?"
"150 million, not counting the later publicity. "Wu Jing is familiar with the numbers of the crew.
Gan Jing was taken aback again, 150 million was actually found in 14 companies? The average one is just over 10 million, considering that it is definitely not an average investment, which means that some companies have invested millions of dollars......
Good guy, what about fate.
The films produced by Bairihong now are generally the appearance of 2-3 companies, and many of them are purely invested by themselves, and the meat is rotten in their own pots.
"I've paid 50 million myself. Wu Jing continued to pour bitter water.
Gan Jing is not surprised, today is already surprised enough, does this number mean that some companies may invest hundreds of thousands?
"What's the gap now?" Gan Jing glanced at Huang Bo, who had not spoken since Wu Jing spoke, and just met the smile on his face, and rolled his eyes angrily.
Forrest Gump's side is not the first one Wu Jing has found, and the numbers are all calculated: "Forty or fifty million, if you can, the publicity of the hundred days red can be counted as an investment." ”
Gan Jing frowned, pondered for a while, and said embarrassedly: "There are too many companies on your side, more than a dozen...... Bairihong doesn't have the habit of joining in the fun. By the way, what kind of story are you talking about, and what's the name?"
""Wolf Warrior 2" is a story about a soldier and a military action movie. Wu Jing replied.
Gan Jing spread his hands: "This kind of movie is not easy to sell." "The military movies in the Chinese market can be described as very niche and very niche, and he has the impression that there are no such works with a good box office.
If you invest in Bairihong, you won't make much money, and you have to work hard.
Wu Jing's expression was a little serious, listening to the meaning of this, Forrest Gump didn't want to invest money, so there are indeed fewer examples of injecting money halfway through the shooting.
"You old rich man, it's enough to invest in others. Huang Bo spoke at this time.
Gan Jing took a new cup of draft beer and said: "The company also has its own articles of association, so let's not go from Bairihong, I will personally inject 10 million yuan to deal with the emergency." Brother Jing, is it done?"
Saving the emergency is not helping the poor, Gan Jing feels that this matter is not to the point of poverty, there are still 14 film and television companies over there, each of which has made a million, and this matter is solved.
According to common sense, if Huang Bo was not here, Gan Jing really wouldn't have voted, with the presence of a Qingdao lady, his face would be worth some money, plus, Wu Jing himself is an old-timer, people put down their faces, and it is considered a favor if they are in a hurry.
Wu Jing breathed a sigh of relief, 10 million can be used for a long time, and the 40 or 50 million in his mouth is even counted in the later publicity and the like, and now it is no problem to find someone to make up for it, and it will be no problem to shoot it to completion.
"Forrest Gump, thank you so much. I remember this feeling. Wu Jing directly got up and toasted a glass of wine, leaning his neck up, although it sounded like Forrest Gump must still have a lot of money, but he also knew that no one's money was blown by the wind, and he was really grateful if he could help.
Gan Jing didn't put on the score, stood up and took a cup.
"Come on, come on, drink. Huang Bo saw that the matter was settled and shouted to stir up the atmosphere, normal people may still be a little embarrassed to borrow money, these two are actors and stars, and the atmosphere is indeed quite subtle.
"Wu Jing, let me tell you, this Forrest Gump is admired even by Russians, last time I heard him blow, he entered the capital alone in college, and drank dozens of people overnight. Huang Bo chatted with interesting things.
Gan Jing shook his head: "Brother Bo, are you making up a joke or something?"
"Isn't this your own bragging?" Huang Bo asked rhetorically.
Gan Jing feigned anger and said: "I'm not bragging, what's the matter, you still want to fight with me?"
"You don't need me today, Wu Jing is sitting here, he is my senior brother, I grew up watching his movies back then. Huang Bo laughed and stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around Wu Jing's shoulder.
"Forrest Gump, come, salute you. Wu Jing only toasted, not mentioning thanks, he felt that it was enough to mention thanks once, and the real thanks were also in his heart.
Gan Jing glanced at Huang Bo, clinked glasses with a smile, and drank it in one gulp.
The atmosphere of the Cheers Bar is very good, and the music that will be played is also more appetizing, and the three of them began to talk about interesting things in the circle, whether it is Forrest Gump's experience abroad, Huang Bo's counterattack or Wu Jing's insistence on the road of kung fu, they can talk about a lot of things.
Cup after cup.
Wu Jing drank more than a dozen glasses, and there was a little drunkenness in his eyes.
"Go back, I'll ask again, if I can't make up enough, I'll sell the house and increase the auction. Wu Jing burped and said with a bit of self-release.
Gan Jing was stunned, how did it get to this point, doesn't the crew still have 14 production companies.
Huang Bo asked for him: "I didn't get 10 million today, how can I make it up casually, can the companies you pulled before really not ask about things?"
Wu Jing raised his wine glass and said solemnly: "Huang Bo, don't you know the faces of those people, they look like an uncle! Why did I come back from Hong Kong? I just don't want to see the faces of those uncles! Why do I become a director myself? I just don't want to see the faces of those uncles! Others don't praise me, I praise myself!"
Grunt.
Wu Jing is another glass of wine, he is already a little crazy.
Gan Jing and Huang Bo glanced at each other, what they said just now was probably Wu Jing's heart, but now, the fact is that Wu Jing still has to look at other people's faces.
There are only a few people in the film market who don't need to look at people's faces.
"Oh, what the hell. Gan Jing shook his head, this is going to sell the house and make a movie.
Huang Bo also shook his head, he didn't have much to do with Wu Jing before, but he also heard that this was a very self-respecting master.
"Brother Jing, in this way, where do you find the special effects to do? The technology of Huaxia special effects on my side is good, if you weren't here before, now change it, my side will pay it in advance with the company, and then pay the balance when you come out at the box office, how about it?" Gan Jing asked.
Immediate payment and deferred payment for several months are completely two concepts, and there is a world of difference between before and after the release of a movie, and for this change alone, the Wu Peking Opera crew will at least save 20 million budget.
Although Wu Jing was a little drunk, his ears could still listen to the words, and he was overjoyed.
Before Gan Jing finished speaking, he simply did a good job and said: "I said it was 10 million before, but now I will invest another 10 million privately, Brother Jing, don't sell the house." You sold it, where does your sister-in-law live? Well, in this way, your crew's budget is at least 30 or 40 million more, and Brother Bo will invest another 5 million, which is almost enough for 40 million. In the end, if there is still something missing, you can make it up by yourself, and you can't be enough. ”
The arrangement of the words was clear, Huang Bo just raised his hand and wanted to speak, but was glared at by Forrest Gump, this called me, can you still pull out a dime yourself?
Wu Jing stood up suddenly.
"This ......," he exhaled sharply, "thank you!" Forrest Gump is really sending a lot of charcoal in the snow!
Gan Jing stood up, pressed Wu Jing's shoulders with both hands and sat him down again.
"Brother Jing, to be honest, the day before yesterday I also said at the premiere of my "Scorching Sun" that the audience and capital should give other films more opportunities and have to make choices. Action military movies are not easy to make, I can be regarded as supporting the minority, and I don't have a braggart pen, and I practice it. Gan Jing said sincerely, "I didn't read the script, the first time I knew the name, I just said a word." ”
"Brother, don't be fooled. ”
Wu Jing's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said categorically: "Don't be fooled!"
"Oh, drink, drink for the five million I just took out!" Huang Bo laughed, he was pulling his five million out.
"Wait, wait. Huang Bo shouted again when the three of them raised their glasses, "No, I have to say something, I have to make my five million sound! This glass of wine is called, a toast to a good movie in Huaxia!"
"Hey, wait a minute, Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu, take a picture of us, hurry up. ”
Gan Jing muttered: "There are a lot of." ”
"Laugh, laugh, give me a smile. Huang Bo urged.
Gan Jing smiled with honey, Wu Jing laughed heartily, and Huang Bo smiled with a smile.
