Chapter 031, careless dating

"Why did you call me so early, do you know that disturbing people's dreams is very immoral? I finally took a nap to recuperate, and was called by you early in the morning, if you don't have a reasonable reason, I won't let you go, and call your home in the middle of the night every day. ”

Wang Jing was so busy during this time, he had to shoot three films in such a short time, and he could sleep for less than five hours a day, and the bags under his eyes were almost drooping to the corners of his mouth. I just gave the crew a holiday today, and I was ready to sleep beautifully, but I was woken up by a phone call at eight o'clock in the morning, and it can be said that I am extremely unhappy at this moment.

Mo Fei didn't bother to pay attention to him, raised his eyes and asked: "I guess your films are almost finished, I said last time that there was a script for you, but seeing that you are so tired and unhappy, I think it is better to let you rest for a while." ”

As soon as he heard Mo Fei's words, Wang Jing's spirit immediately came, and he hurriedly grabbed Mo Fei's hand and said: "Cool, I'm very cool, how can I be unhappy, it's just refreshing." Especially when I heard that you had a script for me to shoot, no matter how unhappy it was, it became cool, Amo, Brother Mo, don't play tricks on me, I've been waiting for this day for a long time. ”

Mo Fei shook off Wang Jing's palms, which were still fat after overwork, and scolded with a smile: "You dead fat man, just talk, what do you do with my hand, be careful of scandals." I warn you, I'm not a foundation, how nice a woman is, you'd better not go that way, it's very difficult. ”

"Bah, bah, you're the only guy." Wang Jing was given goosebumps by Mo Fei's words, and after fighting for a long time with his fat body, he said: "Okay, okay, let's not continue this topic, you see that I came to meet you so hard, and even sacrificed my time to sleep, so you can kindly take out the script and give it to me." ”

Wang Jing likes Mo Fei's script very much, not only Wang Jing, but any director who cooperates with Mo Fei will like it very much, because Mo Fei's script is written in accordance with the director's mind and style, and there is no conflict and disharmony at all when filmed, which can not only reflect the director's own style, but also do not need to bother to figure it out, so it is strange that such a script is not liked.

After filming "Sky Stealing Trap" last time, Wang Jing went to shoot the three movies he had taken before, and he even had a very uncomfortable feeling when he looked at the script in front of him, no matter how he looked at it, it was a mess, and he had to do a lot of work to understand and arrange the script, and since then he has missed and looked forward to cooperating with Mo Fei.

Mo Fei really has nothing to say to this fat man, his first movie was made by him, and the effect is very good, if it weren't for this guy, he wouldn't have been able to make a name for himself in the film industry so quickly. And Wang Jing still has a lot of advantages, he is optimistic, he is also righteous enough, and the most important thing is that his mind is very proportional to his body type, and he is really good as a friend.

You can't just ask for it, of course, you will give Wang Jing something in return to show your gratitude and attention to him. "The new film I prepared is not very suitable for the foreign market, it is a comedy with a strong local style, about an innocent beauty, two perverted cashiers, a female devil with a dog, a pair of mentally handicapped masked men, and a cold-blooded robber, in a supermarket at night.

This film will definitely not be able to make box office like "Sky Trap", I guess it is okay in Hong Kong and other Chinese areas, but if you want to make money from foreign devils, the possibility is too low, maybe there will be, but it is difficult to exceed 10 million US dollars. ”

Wang Jing didn't say anything strange, nodded and said with a smile: "I naturally know this, no one can make every movie that earns the global box office, I haven't gone crazy yet, how can I do that kind of daydream." I couldn't have imagined a year ago that I would become the highest-grossing director in the history of Hong Kong films, and many things depend on luck and chance, I understand this. ”

After thinking about it, he asked: "Amo, do you have a suitable actor for this film, do you want to push the ghost girl in your company?" Although Honggu is good, it's useless no matter how good you are, I think you should let yourself go, you can't hang yourself from a tree. I think it won't be long before you want, as long as you want, Hong Kong doesn't know how many actresses are rushing to make a drag with you, and when the time comes, you will have all kinds of women you want, and you won't continue to care about the impact of a person on you. ”

This guy is different from others, he doesn't know what to say to him, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "How can I be as fragile as you think, and we're talking about whether the movie is good or not, please don't pull women in at every turn." The ghost girl in my company I don't plan to let her be in this play, first of all, her schedule can't be scheduled, and then I don't want her to spend too much time on the movie, her performance is not malleable, and concentrating on singing is the way.

Regarding the actors of this film, I am going to use two newcomers, not completely newcomers to be exact, one of them is still a new person. The other actors probably have two women, four men and six roles with similar roles, one man and one woman can promote newcomers, and you can sell favors to these people; In addition, there are four roles that need to be cameo, these need to have a certain degree of popularity, but not too big of a brand, you can play one of them yourself, and the rest depends on your ability.

I expect the cost of this film to be only more than one million, as long as the publicity is in place and the right schedule is chosen, it is not a big problem to get a box office of more than 30 million. I will count your director's share as a dividend, and I will give you 30% when the time comes, of course, if you don't want to take the risk, you can also only take your director's share. ”

Wang Jing can't make too much money directing a film now, that is, it has risen a part after "Stealing the Sky Trap", and what he can earn is only hundreds of thousands. It doesn't matter if the money is lost, but once this movie really gets more than 30 million at the box office in Hong Kong, he can earn at least 4 million, which is not an ordinary bargain, and he also believes that Mo Fei will not lie to him, and the most important thing is to have confidence in Mo Fei's screenwriting ability.

waved his hand and said: "Cut, you said so confidently, if I don't play this game with you, wouldn't it make you underestimate me, just do what you say, and remember to give me dividends when the time comes." I will be able to get the film in my hand before the end of the month, and when the time comes, you will give me the script first, and I will prepare for a few days, and I can start filming before July 10th, so as not to delay your affairs. ”

The film you want to make is called "Nightclub", in the original history, because of the disadvantage of theatrical filming, and the squeeze of many blockbusters in the same period, it still got a box office of almost 20 million, and now it is adapted to take out a "Nightclub" that integrates more Hong Kong flavor, plus the director Wang Jing, who brought "Stealing the Sky Trap", the highest-grossing film in Hong Kong film history, to direct, I believe it should not perform too badly.

Originally, in the movie, it was He Sanshui who took his distant cousin to ask for debts; And in this movie, Mo Fei is going to borrow the design from "Jiupin Sesame Official" and change why Sanshui took a nephew who was many years older than him to ask for the debt. replaced the "tires" of young people who had just entered the city to work and were deceived, and were a little stupid, to the fierce fishermen who have been living in seaside fishing villages and going to sea every day to make a living; The supermarket clerk has become a young man from the mainland who went to Hong Kong to work.

Using such a film to push Zhou Xingchi, an unknown actor, will definitely be able to have a good effect. First, I can test the water through this film and see how many catties and taels Zhou Xingchi has now; Second, the movie will not be too popular, with the results of "Stealing the Sky Trap" pressing on it, even if he is popular, it will avoid him from having too much pride to a large extent.

Wang Jing is willing to share dividends, but he is naturally happy, first of all, it can explain a problem, the essence of this fat man has not changed because he made a super-blockbuster movie, or like in his previous life, he is very clear about his direction on the road of film, and he has been insisting on it. That is, only make commercial films, stay away from literary films that you can't play, just make money, and it doesn't matter if you win awards or not.

The two discussed the script and the movie for a while, and Wang Jing asked who the two actors Mo Fei chose were, and after getting Mo Fei's answer, Wang Jing almost dropped his jaw.

"That Wu Mengda is better to say, after all, he acted in a lot of movies and dramas in the early years, if it weren't for bad gambling, he would probably be popular now. But this is called Zhou Xingchi, I really can't figure it out, I haven't heard of his name before, are you sure he can really act in this film? ”

Mo Fei lit a cigarette and took a puff, puffed out the smoke lightly, and said: "As long as you believe in him like I believe, he will definitely be able to, and with you, a famous director in Xiangjiang, it will not be much worse." ”

"You are forcing me, if the shooting effect is not good, it is my failure, right? Also, you don't deal with wireless, don't you want me to help you get these two people, Amo, you're too treacherous. Wang Jing joked, and accepted Zhou Xingchi, who he thought was a raw melon egg.

Mo Fei also smiled and said, "Not only these two people, but there is also one person who I also need your help." It turns out that there is a management of wireless named Feng Meiji, I want her to help me take care of the company's artists, can you get her contact information through your old bean. I only know that she is doing advertising now, but I guess Wireless will soon find her back, and I want to take this person under her umbrella before Wireless. ”

When Wang Jing heard this, even his face turned green, and he complained: "I know that it will not be good for you to find me, obviously you want to make a movie for me, but not only do you want me to help you dig actors, but even the management personnel want me to help you dig them, I really have three lives of evil, so I will make a friend like you." ”
