Chapter 597: Look at the sample film and the new script
The next day, Lei Juewen really saw a report in the newspaper about him going to the Li stage to watch a martial arts performance last night. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In media reports, many reports speculated that he and Shao Yifu had the intention of leaning towards the mainland, but none of the media used statements such as "has" and "affirmation", which were all speculations.
Regarding the media reports, Lei Juewen didn't pay attention to them at all, and directly ignored them, which was just a trivial matter for him.
In the afternoon, Lei Juewen went to Yongsheng to watch the sample film, but it was "Crazy Boy" that was filmed, and the editing was completed, and the Xiang brothers invited him to take a look, and he was also a little curious about how this version of "Crazy Boy" was, so he went to take a trip.
In addition to the Xiang brothers and Lei Juewen, there are also the directors and two protagonists of the crew of "Crazy Boy", that is, Lu Liangwei who plays Chen Haonan and Tang Zhenye who plays pheasant.
Tang Zhenye, Lei Juewen is the first time to see this person in this life, Tang Zhenye is not as obese as he was in the future, he looks very young and handsome, and it is no wonder that he can become one of the five tiger generals in the last life a few years later, and he still has good conditions.
This version of "Crazy Boy" is no different from the original, the only difference is that some phones that do not fit the era have been deleted, so in terms of plot, it is not much different from the original.
A hundred minutes passed, and the play of "Crazy Boy" was completed.
After watching "Crazy Boy", Lei Juewen found that this version of "Crazy Boy" is not much different from the original version, even if the two leading actors are changed, the actors of the whole film have been changed, but the film is still very exciting, so that people who have not watched the original version watch this version of "Crazy Boy", and those who like it will definitely take this version of "Crazy Boy" as a classic.
However, Lei Juewen thinks it is right to be wonderful, but it is not easy to say whether the film will sell well or not, after all, this film is more than ten years in advance, and the social environment is different, so Lei Juewen is not sure whether this film will be liked by anyone and whether it will have a high attendance rate.
After watching the sample, Xiang Xiangsheng said: "Lei Sheng, what do you think of this film?" ”
Lei Juewen nodded and said: "It's very good, but whether it will sell well or not, to be honest, I can't guarantee it, after all, this type of film is the first time it has appeared, and it has a bad impact, if it doesn't sell well, I won't be surprised." ”
"It doesn't matter if it's a blockbuster, I think that on videotape, this film may make a big difference, and there may be many people who like this film."
Xiang Haosheng has an in-depth investigation into the entertainment industry, and he is not a layman, he sees that "Crazy Boy" is a good film, maybe the results in theaters will be good from time to time, but the videotape may sell very well, after all, this kind of film young people like to watch the most, and young people are the main force of money.
"Perhaps!"
Lei Juewen nodded, how dare he guarantee that "Crazy Boy" will be a big hit on the tape, for this uncertain situation, it is better to express less opinions, or express vague opinions, so as not to be slapped in the face in the end.
"Liang Wei, long time no see."
Lei Juewen said hello to Lu Liangwei who was standing aside, since the two collaborated on "Shanghai Tang", it has been almost two years, and this is the first time the two have met.
"Hello Mr. Lei!"
Lu Liangwei greeted respectfully, and he didn't feel emotional. About two years ago, Lei Juewen was just a screenwriter and a descendant with the name of an assistant director, but now Lei Juewen is an entertainment tycoon on Hong Kong Island, and his film company beats Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, and can be said to be the number one tycoon on Hong Kong Island, not a little bit worse. The two met again, he was still an actor, but the other party became a tycoon, how could he not be emotional.
Lei Juewen nodded and said: "There are at least five or six parts of "Crazy Boy" in my mind, if the first one can be successful, relying on this series, you will also have a certain status among the stars on Hong Kong Island." ”
Lu Liangwei couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, if there were really five or six sequels as Lei Juewen said, then his opportunity would come, and becoming a first-class star was just around the corner. Although he is now quite famous, it is all accumulated from TV series, and he is not very famous in the film industry.
The Xiang brothers were also very happy to hear it, if this first part can be successful, the next five or six parts will not be much worse, it is very possible to make hundreds of millions of dollars together, and the company has half of their shares, which is equivalent to them earning 50 million.
50 million Hong Kong dollars is not a small amount.
After watching the finished film, Lei Juewen gave affirmation, and then left Yongsheng.
After leaving Yongsheng, Lei Juewen went to Light Curtain Film and Television, and he made an appointment with Wang Jing to meet.
"Jing Tsai, long time no see!"
When Lei Juewen saw Wang Jing coming in in the office, he got up and walked over and put his arm around his shoulder. Wang Jing can be said to be the first director recruited by his company after its establishment, and it can be said that he is the veteran of the company.
"Hello Mr. Lei!"
For Lei Juewen, Wang Jing is very respectful, after all, Lei Juewen has the grace of knowing him, and not any boss dares to let him, who has never made a film, to direct a film.
Lei Juewen took Wang Jing's shoulders and sat down on the side of the sofa, and said, "You contacted me and said that I had a book to show me, take it out and show it to me." ”
Wang Jing responded and handed the script to Lei Juewen.
"I love Rolando!"
After reading the name of the script, Lei Juewen immediately thought of a book in his memory, which was also written by Wang Jing, although the box office was not amazing, but it was definitely not bad, and it was needless to say that making money was naturally worth making money, after all, it had a box office of nearly 10 million Hong Kong dollars.
Lei Juewen looked at the script seriously, looked at him and found that it was not exactly the same as the film in his memory, there were many differences, but in the main line, there was no change, it was the same as a film chasing girls and picking up girls.
After reading the script, Lei Juewen said to Wang Jing: "Jingzai, the script is okay, and the investment is no problem." But I want to tell you one thing, that is, you have to create, don't keep thinking about following the trend, do you know? ”
Lei Juewen wanted to know if Wang Jing would write a script that he didn't have in his previous life if he created it independently, and he was very curious about this.
"I see!"
Wang Jing nodded in response, although he felt that it was faster to make money by following the trend, but since Lei Juewen had said so, he naturally had to think about it and strive to write a good book.
The book "I Love Rolando", the director is naturally Wang Jing, and the actor Lei Juewen asked Wang Jing to find it himself, anyway, as long as it is an actor from light screen film and television and ATV, Lei Juewen has no other requirements, Wang Jing will play whichever actor he finds.
