Wang Zhongjun's face was pale, and his two nostrils made a snorting sound like bellows. After a long time www.biquge.info the pen "Fun", he gritted his teeth and said: "Harvey just called and said that the quality of "Night Banquet" is too poor and he is not optimistic about the prospects of the film in North America, so let's sell it to him for $1 million, otherwise we won't want it!"

In May, "Night Banquet" was sold to Harvey at Cannes Huayi for 5 million, when the film was not finished, Feng Xiaogang and they brought the film, and Harvey was only willing to pay $200,000 in advance on the grounds that "Wuji" was returned. Huayi had no experience in selling films overseas, so he didn't think much about it, and readily agreed, they never dreamed that Harvey would come to this hand.

Wang Zhonglei was also angry when he heard this, and scolded: "This bastard!" After scolding, he asked very unwillingly, "What should we do now?"

Wang Zhongjun slammed his fist on the table: "I can only sell it to this bastard!"

Wang Zhonglei's face suddenly turned green: "In this way, we will lose a lot!"

If there were other possibilities, Wang Zhongjun would never agree to Harvey, but the question is, if he doesn't sell to Harvey, who else can he sell to? Up to now, Berlin, Cannes, Venice, and even Toronto, the film festival "Night Banquet" that should be gone has been gone, and the film business that should be talked about has been discussed, and it is very difficult to find a new buyer. Chinese films are already difficult to sell, and it will be even more difficult to sell if they have the reputation of returning goods. If it is not sold to Harvey, the North American rights may be smashed in his hands, and the loss will be even greater.

Wang Zhongjun had no other choice, gritted his teeth and said: "If we don't sell it to him, we will lose more!"

"Night Banquet" cost 15 million US dollars, with Zhang Ziyi's fame, it sold nearly 10 million US dollars overseas, removed 2 million publicity expenses in various film festivals, and nearly 8 million overseas earnings, and only needed to recover 7 million US dollars in China to make money. Up to now, "Night Banquet" has sold 15 million yuan in domestic DVDs, plus the movie channel income of 5 million and advertising revenue of 15 million, a total of 35 million, that is to say, "Night Banquet" can return to its original cost as long as it earns more than 20 million at the box office.

But now that Harvey's $5 million has become $1 million, Huayi must recover $11 million from China to recoup his capital. Excluding DVDs, movie channels, and advertising revenue, "Night Banquet" must recover 55 million yuan through the box office, and after adding the movie's promotional expenses, the box office must exceed 150 million to recover the cost.

According to the current box office trend of "Night Banquet", the maximum in China is 120 million, and it will eventually lose more than 10 million!

Zhang Ran didn't know what was happening in Huayi at this time, but this was what he expected. In the previous life, Feng Xiaogang once bombarded Harvey as a liar, and many people don't understand why, the real reason is that Harvey cheated the North American copyright of "Night Banquet" from Huayi through this method. When Zhang Ran knew that Hua Yi sold "Night Banquet" to Harvey this time, he knew that the tragedy would repeat itself, and Hua Yi was decided.

Just when the Wang brothers scolded Harvey for being a liar, Zhang Ran was continuing the filming of "Tangshan Earthquake" at Nanhu Film and Television Base.

This scene is about the building where Wang Luodan and Cao Bingkun lived did not fall, and slowly someone went back to get things. In the evening, Wang Luodan also wanted to move out his family's things, especially the pots and pans out to cook, and he hadn't eaten for a day. Cao Bingkun was afraid that the building was not safe, so he asked Wang Luodan to stay downstairs and went back to the building to pack his things. Shortly after Cao Bingkun went upstairs, that devastating 7.1 magnitude aftershock came!

As Cao Bingkun struggled to jump from the window, a prefabricated slab slammed into his back. Cao Bingkun floated up like a fallen leaf in the wind, and then fell to the ground hard.

The scene being filmed now is the scene where Cao Bingkun hugged him tightly after he spurted blood and died.

In the lens of the camera, Wang Luodan hugged Cao Bingkun tightly, and the whole person couldn't extricate himself from grief, and cried loudly. Wang Luodan cried very hard, tears and snot, and the snot rubbed on Cao Bingkun's clothes.

After Zhang Ran shouted to stop, Cao Bingkun jumped up, took out a piece of toilet paper from his body, wiped the snot on his body, and said in disgust: "Dandan, you are disgusting to me! My clothes are full of your snot!"

Wang Luodan's face flushed, and he defended: "I'm really crying, and it's not eye drops, of course I have snot!" Then she glanced at Zhang Ran with some fear, worried that she wouldn't be able to pass this time. So far, this shot has been shot 15 times.

Zhang Ran didn't tune the replay of the performance just now, and shouted directly: "Dandan, do it again!"

Wang Luodan was really about to cry, she cried more and more affectionately, more sad than she was, she was as sad as she really lost her husband, but she couldn't get over it. Wang Luodan couldn't understand what was going on, he obviously interpreted the sorrow of Li Na's character very well. What made her even more puzzled was that Zhang Ran didn't say where there was a problem, she asked it once just now, and the answer she got was, think about it yourself. She was really at a loss, feeling very depressed and helpless.

Wang Luodan walked out of the performance area and drank a small half bottle of mineral water to replenish some water. She has cried more than ten times, her tears are dry, and she really can't cry without drinking some water.

After the makeup artist made up the makeup, Wang Luodan stood in the performance area again, and this time she decided to try a different way of acting. However, after the performance started, within two seconds, Zhang Ran shouted to stop again, and then it was the sentence that made Wang Luodan's scalp tingle, "Do it again". Wang Luodan felt that he was really going crazy!

The whole shot was filmed for lunch, and 26 were taken, and it still hasn't been. Wang Luodan also tried to interpret it in a variety of ways, such as heartbreaking, silent tears, crying bitterly, etc., but failed to pass. When Zhang Ran announced that she was going to finish work and eat, she was crying so much that she was about to collapse.

Ji Chen saw Wang Luodan sitting on the chair dejectedly, helped her get a boxed lunch, walked over and put it in front of her: "Dandan, why have you been acting stupidly, why don't you ask Teacher Zhang?"

Wang Luodan glanced at him, shook his head slightly, and said, "Teacher Zhang asked me to think about it myself, I think I might have something to upset Teacher Zhang!"

Ji Chen was stunned, then patted the back of her hand, and said encouragingly: "You just say you can't think of it, and then ask, Teacher Zhang will definitely tell you!"

Wang Luodan said "um", got up with a boxed lunch, and sat down beside Zhang Ran.

Zhang Ran saw Wang Luodan coming over, and said directly: "Do you feel that you performed well in the morning?"

Wang Luodan was satisfied with his performance, and replied unequivocally: "My emotions are very real, and they are also in line with the thoughts and feelings that Li Na should have in that situation, and I feel good." ”

Zhang Ran did not refute and asked: "You went to Tangshan in May to experience life, how many people have you communicated with who have experienced the earthquake, and what have you communicated with them?"

Wang Luodan didn't understand what Zhang Ran was asking for, so he replied: "I don't have statistics on how many people there are, but there are dozens." I mainly asked them about their experiences when the earthquake came, what they thought, what they felt, and so on. ”

Among the female students in Zhang Ran's class, Wang Luodan's image is relatively ordinary, and she doesn't have much talent, but Zhang Ran likes her a lot, mainly because she is hardworking. However, Wang Luodan has a big problem, that is, he is very self-conscious. After tossing for so long today, Zhang Ran just wanted to remind her: "You have asked so many people, haven't you noticed that few people in Tangshan cry after the earthquake? Even if someone cries, someone will soon come out to stop it." Everyone is holding their grief to the bottom of their hearts and is holding on. You play Li Na is the same, you think, your parents, eldest brother, and nephew are all buried in the rubble now, and the second brother, sister-in-law and niece have no news, and their life and death are uncertain. You may be the only living person in your family, who will collect the remains of your parents, and who will bury your eldest brother and nephew? Therefore, you can't collapse, even if you are sad and desperate, you can only hide and choose to be strong!"

Wang Luodan's mouth was stunned, she never felt that she didn't act well, this was convinced, and she apologized embarrassedly: "Teacher Zhang, I'm too subjective." ”

Zhang Ran looked at Wang Luodan and said: "Dandan, there are two kinds of actors in the world, one is with a strong personal style and imprint when acting, such as Ge You; Now I want to ask, what kind of actor do you want to be?"

Wang Luodan didn't want to be an actor like Ge You, so he said without hesitation: "I am a rebellious person in my bones, and I hope that the things I have not tried and experienced in my life can be experienced in the role, which is also the most attractive part of the profession of actor." ”

Zhang Ran knew that it would be like this: "Then do you know where your biggest obstacle is?"

Wang Luodan thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I don't know!"

Zhang Ran analyzed: "You babbling crazy girl in life. He ignored Wang Luodan's dissatisfied expression and continued: "But when you act, you always bring in the feeling of life, and you like to shape the character from yourself." You play Li Na, and the reason why you always don't play it right is here. This is an advantage as well as a flaw. This gives your performance a personal charm and style, which is an advantage, but trying to be an actor with a lot of facets can be your biggest obstacle. Your performance is too personal, and when the character conflicts with your personal character, people will not accept it, and they will think that you are acting badly!"

Wang Luodan scratched his head and said, "Teacher Zhang, you mean to let me keep my own style?"

Zhang Ran believes that Wang Luodan will definitely develop better if she takes the small and fresh route, but with her character, she will definitely not listen: "I didn't say that, what your acting path can only determine is yourself, I just tell you, where are the problems you are facing now!"

Wang Luodan asked, "I want to try different roles, so what should I do?"

Zhang Ran said: "Erase personal characteristics and learn to converge." ”

Wang Luodan continued to ask, "What should I do?"

Zhang Ran could only shake his head at this: "The specific situation of each of us is different, I can only show you a direction, and you can only explore the specific way by yourself." But one thing is for sure, it's to keep experiencing life!"

During the afternoon shooting, Wang Luodan no longer howled and cried, her eyes were full of tears, she hugged Cao Bingkun tightly, motionless, her eyes were so sad, but so strong.

The camera zoomed in and out, and finally heard Zhang Ran shouting "Very good". After filming 27 times, this scene is finally over. At this time, Wang Luodan's huge pain was finally released, and he hugged Cao Bingkun and cried.

Cao Bingkun wailed: "Dandan, you wipe your nose with my clothes again!"

On the morning of September 27, the grand premiere of "Baby Project" was held in Beiping. Director Chen Musheng, starring Cheng Long, Gu Yule and Xu Guanwen attended the premiere. After the premiere, the applause in the screening room was a testament to the quality of the film.

However, Zhang Jingchu, who was originally on the attendance list, did not show up, which disappointed many media reporters who rushed to her. A reporter asked director Chen Musheng about this: "Why didn't the heroine Zhang Jingchu come?"
