Chapter 276: Audition Heroine

"Arlo, why are you in such a hurry to shoot "God of Gamblers"?"

After everyone dispersed in the conference room, Liu Haitang, who stayed behind, looked at Chen Jialuo with a confused expression.

Because not long ago, Chen Jialuo and Liu Haitang also had a hot discussion on the script of "Heavenly Love", screened the heroine together, finalized the approximate actors together, and even released the wind to the media, Chen Jialuo's second movie, starring Liu Dehua, is about to be officially launched.

It's good now, it's only been a few days, and Chen Jialuo has released a new movie - "God of Gamblers", which is really an unpopular theme, but fortunately, the cast is really strong. But he said that he didn't want to direct, and he would be a producer, so he would hand it over to Liu Zhenwei!

However, thinking that Chen Jialuo is a person from Xu Qi's film studio, Liu Haitang can understand a little. Xu Wei is also a guy with a lot of ideas, and he likes to be a nominal producer and manage a group of directors to film for himself.

It's just that Chen Jialuo is too anxious, which is very inconsistent with his traditional filming style.

In the past, "The Birth of a Word" is still under intense filming, and Chen Jialuo does not need to be in such a hurry to start the second movie.

Is it the first time to be the boss, so the vision is too far? too arrogant, proud, want to kill the new art city in minutes, Golden Harvest?

In fact, the reason why the script of "God of Gamblers" was finalized, Chen Jialuo hoped to expand the film path of Hong Kong films, and the more films, the better the film world would be.

I have to say that most directors are still very tight in their thinking, plus some companies' interest goals. leads to the emergence of a box office blockbuster movie, which must be followed by many followers.

After "The True Color of Heroes" became popular, followers flocked to it, setting off a huge wave of "hero films", most of them like "Five Tigers Break Apart" committed suicide after a series of dazzling guns, more than cool, insufficient connotation, superficial, ruined the reputation of "hero films".

Then "A Chinese Ghost Story", "Mr. Zombie" and so on, but any blockbuster movie must have countless followers, and there are many bad movies.

Speaking of following the trend, the most successful one is Chen Jialuo's partner, Yongsheng Film Company.

That year's "The True Color of Heroes" was a big success, which provoked the Xiang brothers to find the Mai brothers to follow the trend and start filming gangster hero films, and played the star cards of Zhou Yanfa, Liu Dehua, Wan Ziliang, Li Xiuxian, Yang Yu, Ke Junxiong, Liu Jialing, and Wang Xiaofeng.

After determining the lineup of the performance, Mai Danxiong immediately recalled the playwright Wen Yijun, who had already flown solo, to meet Xiang Huasheng.

The poor editor was forced by Brother Xiang to write the script within 4 days, so Yongsheng and Mai Danxiong quickly rushed out of the movie "Heroes" and released it, with a box office of nearly 19 million Hong Kong dollars, which is a good result.

Originally, this matter had come to an end, but Yongsheng felt that there were still a lot of unused materials for "Heroes and Heroes", which was enough to cut out another one. In order to ensure that they make another profit, Yongsheng and Mai Danxiong decided to add an important character as a new selling point in the prequel "Jianghu Love", and as a result, they hired the popular singer Tan Yonglin to play "Mai Hero", and it took only 4 days to make up the scene. At the end of May, less than 3 months after the painting of "Heroes and Heroes", the prequel "Jianghu Love" was released, and the box office reached 21 million.

In fact, this method is just a recycling of waste materials, but it can make the film company make another profit, which can be called an excellent embodiment of the flexibility of Hong Kong film production.

However, the case of "Jianghu Love" will inevitably be criticized as "opportunistic", and it is okay to do it occasionally, but if it is intensified, it will only ruin Hong Kong films.

Of course, expanding the film road is actually the same thing, this kind of thing needs money, more money can open more films, the main reason why Chen Jialuo is in a hurry to prepare for filming a few more films this year is to get a 'windfall'.

Looking at Liu Haitang's puzzled look, Chen Jialuo smiled and said: "Because there is a prince who is panicked about burning too much money, he invested a sum of money to come to the Red Flower Club, and I have to find a way to spend it." ”

"Huh?" Hearing this, Liu Haitang was a little dumbfounded.

Because Chen Jialuo's words are very obvious, he invested a sum of money into the Red Flower Society, not one or several Red Flower Society movies. In other words, a wealthy prince has joined the gang and become one of the bosses of the Red Flower Club.

Since Chen Jialuo didn't say which prince it was, Liu Haitang didn't ask very interestingly, but said a little excitedly: "That means that there will be a few more movies this year, so "If You Have Love" will also be filmed as usual?"

"Hmm. Chen Jialuo nodded and said: ""If there is love in the sky" and "The Birth of a Word" will be started after the filming of "The Birth of a Word", and the director will let You answer Zhilai, and I will still be the producer. ”

originally said that "Heavenly Love" was directed by Chen Jialuo, and now You Dazhi is the director.

Chen Jialuo likes to dig out newcomers and become popular artists, which seems to be a recognized thing.

But now "The Birth of a Word" is his nominal director, but in fact, the filming is nearing the end, and "God of Gamblers" is handed over to Liu Zhenwei, and "Heavenly Love" is handed over to You Dazhi, is Chen Jialuo not going to focus on movies, and is ready to learn from He Guanchang and them to be a film businessman?

"Ah Luo, "God of Gamblers" is for Liu Zhenwei, and "Heavenly Love" is for You Azhi. What about you? Are you ready to be a big boss with peace of mind? In this case, not only will we not let you go, even those fans will not let you go!" Liu Haitang said very directly, he admires Chen Jialuo's directing talent very much, if such a young director stops filming, it will be a loss!

"You've got water in your head. ”

Chen Jialuo scolded with a smile and said: "You must have been busy recently, work hard, as for me, how can I not film." It's only been a long time since the Red Flower Club started, and I'm just planning to make a commercial film that has something to do with literature and art to help the company get a few more golden figures back. ”

"Ahem......"

Liu Haitang, who was drinking water, almost choked and said, "Are you really fake?

Chen Jialuo said that he wanted to take a few bottles of small golden figures, but Liu Haitang did not doubt it at all. The biggest winner of the last Academy Awards is not Chen Jialuo, Best Newcomer, Best Supporting Actor, Best Actor and Best Director, don't be too glamorous.

Now that Chen Jialuo said this, Liu Haitang's eyes flashed and said: "You don't plan to make a film, specifically to grab the best movie you missed, right?"

"Anyway, the preparation of "God of Gamblers", the pressure is basically on you and Liu Zhenwei. After the official launch of "God of Gamblers", I will prepare for a Hong Kong-wide audition to choose a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl to be my heroine. Chen Jialuo smiled mysteriously. 10
