Chapter 207: "Tang Nan" is launched, and "True Treasure" is finished!
History is written by big people, and the so-called history is actually the history of princes and generals, but what constitutes the long river of history are countless ordinary people who have not left their names, and the drama version of "Good Men of the Tang Dynasty" not only has to give a part of the space to those ordinary people, but also shows the market life that was not paid much attention to in the previous TV series.
Wang Zihao is a lonely little aristocrat, the wife he married is the daughter of a businessman who can't be on the stage, and he has more contact with those people in the market, He Mu hopes that through Wang Zihao's modern perspective, the humanistic features of the Tang Dynasty are all included in this drama, and the knowledge and common sense about the Tang Dynasty are conveyed to those who watch TV dramas.
In order to restore the style of the Tang Dynasty in the Gaozong period as realistically as possible, He Mu will invite professors from the history departments of several universities in China as consultants for this drama.
Listening to He Mu, it feels really good, "In this way, you make a plan about "The Good Man of the Tang Dynasty" and write down all your thoughts, you should be able to do this." ”
"No problem, Lao Cai taught me."
At the end of May and the beginning of June, He Mu has been busy filming and writing plans, and at the same time he is still writing the outline of the script of "A Good Man in the Tang Dynasty", maybe he can't complete this script alone, because he is a novice after all. If he writes, he will write slowly, and it is easy to delay the progress. It may be started at the end of the year, but he also has a general idea of the direction of the plot, so he wrote the route, and then he entrusted Tiandi Media to help him write the script, he only acted as one of the playwrights, and played a supervisory role to ensure that the style and direction of the script could follow his ideas.
In addition to Li Wenhua and Bei Sihan of Tiandi Media, there are also several young people with very hard pens. has a talent for writing scripts, Li Wenhua Bei Sihan is about to graduate this month, and there are many things to do in the graduation season. He Mu didn't want to trouble them, so let them enjoy the last college time, so the matter of writing the script was handed over to He Mu and the young people of Tiandi Media.
After seeing He Mu's planning copy, Xiao Fang was very proud that he was able to pull He Mu into the tiger wolf. If executed well. After the filming of "A Good Man in the Tang Dynasty", it will be a high-quality TV series with impeccable entertainment and professionalism, whether it is women or young people, whether workers or scholars, they can find what they want from this drama, which shows He Mu's talent in film and television production.
"Brother Fang, do you agree or not?" When Xiao Fang looked at the plan, He Mu couldn't sit still, after all, this was his sleepless effort for many days, "Anyway, I have already bought the adaptation rights." The script also began to be written, and the director also picked it. Just wait for you to approve the money. ”
Xiao Fang glanced at He Mu with a smile: "Oh, which director is it?" ”
"It's a lot of fun." He Mu said, before he decided what to film, He Mu determined the director of this drama.
Tao Quduo jumped from Huayi to Tiger Wolf, during which he participated in the filming of many popular dramas, usually as an assistant director, and after "Chang'an Chaos", he successively served as an executive producer in "Rouge Snow", and served as a producer in the film version of "Flight Attendant". This is a kind of exercise for young Tao Quduo, and it is also a kind of appreciation, his classmates who are engaged in the film and television industry basically start from the bottom, and now those who can become assistant directors are considered to be the best, and they are even more unique like Tao Quduo, but he still hopes to really complete a director's work independently, which is the wish of every director student.
As Tao Quduo's friend and one of the shareholders of Tiger Wolf, He Mu thought that his new drama would not be too difficult, and it would be almost the same for anyone to direct, so he promised Lao Tao in advance, so Tao Quduo began to help He Mu make suggestions before "Flight Attendant" was completed, and what novel should be adapted.
Hearing that He Mu chose Tao Quduo as the director, Xiao Fang didn't show too much surprise, Tao Quduo's experience and talent gave him the foundation to become a genuine director, there are many people like him in the film and television industry, all they lack is an opportunity, an opportunity for the boss to appreciate, as long as the guide tube is handed over to them, they are not necessarily worse than those directors who have become famous.
Xiao Fang originally wanted to promote Tao Quduo by himself, but since He Mu chose him, then he, "I agreed to this plan and director candidates, and the following is the preparatory work, you and Tao Quduo are both young and have a little experience, but they are not old-fashioned, I asked Cai Jianjie to help you, you are the producer, Lao Cai is the producer, I hope you can win the first battle." ”
"The matter of shooting funds......" He Mu said again.
"Do you think 30 million is enough?" Xiao Fang asked.
At the beginning, "Chang'an Chaos" was known as an investment of 30 million, but because there were no big-name stars, it only cost 25 million in the end, "A Good Man in the Tang Dynasty" is not a martial arts drama, and there is basically no need for Weiya, almost all the stories take place in Chang'an City, and almost one film and television city can handle all the filming needs, which can save a lot of money in these two aspects. But He Mu's current salary has risen sharply, at least one million more than during the "Chang'an Rebellion" period, and He Mu doesn't want the first drama he produced to be too starry, so he will invite some big-name actors to play several important female roles in the play, the candidates are undecided, but the salary can be determined not to be too small, so the two aspects cancel each other, He Mu feels that the investment of 25 million can basically be handled.
He Muzhi said that the tiger wolf has invested in three or four TV series such as "The Leader" and "True Treasure", and the company's capital flow must not be able to support it, Xiao Fang should have used a mortgage to obtain funds, so he didn't want to put too much pressure on him, "30 million is enough, in fact, 25 million is about the same." ”
Xiao Fang waved his hand, "Now that filming, the remuneration of professional actors and extras is rising, and the venue rent is also rising, there is a big increase every year, it is still necessary to prepare more, so it is decided, this new drama invests 30 million, you can first approve 5 million for preliminary preparation and publicity, and then send the rest of the money to the crew's account in batches when filming officially starts." ”
Despite Xiao Fang's words, He Mu still decided to control the investment within 25 million, out of the tiger wolf company, Wang Mingfei called to tell He Mu that the post-production of "One Shot 147" has been completed, with her professional photography, amateur director's vision, this movie is very exciting, not dull at all, perhaps this is because An Le hired Hong Kong's famous editor, Lin An'er, who has the reputation of "the first cut in the rivers and lakes", to do the editing, it is said that Lin An'er was during the editing of "Red Cliff", after completing the editing of the upper part, Before the start of the lower part, he was hired by Jiang Zhiqiang.
Lin An'er often does editing for action movies, and the "One Shot 147" edited by her is clean and neat. The charm of Nock sports is vividly displayed, she once said that when she cut "One Shot 147", she did it in one go, and it felt very good, and her editing skills were very good, neutralizing the kind of warmth in the lens of the director of mainland literary films, making "One Shot 147" less dull and much more watchable.
Hearing Wang Mingfei's appreciation, He Mu couldn't wait to see this film, but Wang Mingfei said that they had already seen the finished film, and at that time, it was only the leaders of Bayi and An Le and several behind-the-scenes creators of the film who were watching, if He Mu wanted to watch it, he would wait for the film to participate in the film festival.
"On this month. Can the Hai International Film Festival catch up? He Mu asked.
"I'm a little nervous," Wang Mingfei said, "The Shanghai Film Festival is about to open, and our film has just been completed, so I'm afraid I'll have to go abroad for a walk then." ”
It seems that he is really going to a foreign film festival to fight, He Mu may also have the opportunity to participate in international film festivals with the crew, and he has some faint expectations.
June is very close to the Olympic Games, and after experiencing the sadness and emotion of the Wenchuan earthquake, the north. Beijing ushered in a rare festivities, and more and more Olympic symbols appeared in the north. Beijing, a city that is both ancient and modern, has a strong atmosphere to welcome the Olympic Games.
In the Old North. In the Beijing alley, a group of foreign tourists entered a courtyard under the leadership of the tour guide, sitting in the courtyard to greet them was He Mu, who was dressed in elegant clothes, and now he is Zhuang Han, here is his courtyard in the play, but later he transformed it into a museum, the courtyard is big enough, and this courtyard museum is also quite large.
Now they are filming, and it is also the last scene of "True Treasure", which is about foreign tourists visiting the museum during the Olympic Games, as the owner of the museum, Zhuang Hanxin came to tell the tourists allusions to some cultural relics in the museum, and one of the foreigners pointed to a painting and said that he had an identical one at home.
That's a painting by Tang Bohu, Zhuang Han is a fake, the original version is one of the grandfather's included lists, and it is also the most precious one, he has collected a lot of his grandfather's treasures, but the precious Tang Bohu's authentic handiwork has not been found. Zhuang Han once happened to encounter this painting, but he identified it as a fake, but he still bought it back, just to leave a memory.
Hearing the foreigner say that his father's painting was purchased in China by his father thirty years ago, and at the right time, Zhuang Han took the liberty of proposing that he could go to the United States to see the painting, and the foreigner smiled and opened his arms and said in Chinese: "Welcome to New York!" ”
"Click!" The elderly director Guo Baochang stood up and shouted to stop, this work, which took him more than three months of hard work, and was considered his best work after "Mansion Gate", was finally completed, thanks to the Ministry of Culture, thanks to CCTV, thanks to the tiger wolf, and thanks to He Mu, not only because He Mu brought an excellent performance to "True Treasure", but also because he brought such an excellent script to Guo Baochang, but He Mu's identity as a screenwriter is not known to outsiders.
