Chapter 213: Preparing for Thailand

There are also 200 million box office statistics at the box office around the world, that is to say, the total global box office of "Twilight" has exceeded 1.3 billion after its release for a month, and it has successfully become the third film in history to have a box office of more than one billion US dollars after "Magic Man" and "Crab Island", temporarily ranking second after "Magic Man Part 1", and it has not yet been lowered, which means that there is still an opportunity and time to continue to impact the throne of "Magic Man".

Whether it can be very dangerous, no one knows, but at least there is already a hope, you must know that "Magic Man" was a work more than six years ago, and technology has changed with each passing day in the past six years, and it has entered the new century, and there are some "Magic Man" stunts that year, but it can't reach the miracle of the year at the box office.

Although there is also a relationship between "Magic Man" and "Magic Man", no matter how you look at it, it feels a little tragic!

However, when everyone was still paying attention to "Magic Man", Zeng Xiaoxian had already returned to China to prepare for the filming of "Thai Embarrassment"!

The box office success of "Twilight" is a foregone conclusion, Zeng Xiaoxian breathed a sigh of relief, after all, he was also holding his breath and worried before this, and now he finally put his mind at ease, his step into Hollywood is extremely beautiful.

The senior management of the love apartment has decided to start filming "Thai Embarrassment", preparing to impact this year's Chinese New Year file, time is pressing, Zeng Xiaoxian only participated in the screening of "Twilight", and then hurriedly returned to China and began to prepare for the filming of "Thai Embarrassment".

The first time he became a film director, Zeng Xiaoxian was busy in the dark, when he was just an actor and a part-time assistant director, he was not so busy at all, first he had to find and contact the right actors, and then specify the shooting plan, find the shooting location, and make a shooting budget report, not only the actors need to be found, but even the crew members also need to be found, and the crew Love Apartment Company has prepared a team for Zeng Xiaoxian, but that is only the most basic.

If you want to shoot well enough, then you can't omit a lot of things, look for a good lighting artist, radio engineer, videographer, scene notes, etc.

Although Zeng Xiaoxian has been in the entertainment industry for two years, he thinks that he has a good network among the actors, but he does not have much friendship among these behind-the-scenes personnel.

Zeng Xiaoxian went to the door one by one to invite, this kind of thing is not just famous, Zeng Xiaoxian has no qualifications in this circle, and he can't see his strength, let alone any connections, if he hadn't been introduced by these famous directors in the past, it is estimated that Zeng Xiaoxian is one, and he can't be invited.

Zeng Xiaoxian finally knew that the so-called need to be an assistant director for at least ten years to be qualified to be a director is not a lie, but a real truth, and the accumulation of these connections takes time to accumulate little by little. The entertainment industry is not something that can be played with money, and some people are not invited with money.

In his previous life, Xu Zheng's "Thai Embarrassment" claimed to have invested 1.6 billion, of course, everyone knows that this title is just a title.

The actual investment is certainly not so much, but to remove the water, 100 million yuan is still available, even if it is 100 million yuan in China, it is definitely a rare big production, in order to ensure the production effect of "Thai Embarrassment", the company finally decided to approve the production of 1300 million yuan.

This is a real production fund, which is at Zeng Xiaoxian's disposal, of which 10 million is Zeng Xiaoxian's salary as an actor and director and the screenwriter's salary.

Although Zeng Xiaoxian's current price is definitely more than that, of course, his company is not good at charging too much, and for Zeng Xiaoxian, it is just a left-handed change for a right-handed one, no difference.

Zeng Xiaoxian decided to take out 30 million as a salary in addition to his 10 million remuneration, and 20 million to complete post-production.

Zeng Xiaoxian is determined to make "Thai Embarrassment" a classic, so naturally he can't allow it to fail in this kind of thing, and there is also the funding for filming.

If you want to change to Hollywood, the funds for inviting a famous star will almost bottom out, but this is in China, and these funds are still relatively sufficient.

The price of different people is naturally different, for example, another actor Li Cheng, the brokerage company has a salary of 15 million yuan, which is simply a lion's mouth.

Zeng Xiaoxian took 10 million that is in a price reduction sale, otherwise with his current value, the crew of "Thai Embarrassment" will really pay, then it is estimated that there will not be much liquidity, but Li Cheng will take 15 million is a pure sky-high asking price.

Even though she is now a popular actor and has experienced the baptism of "People in Embarrassment", her value has risen a lot, but in terms of TV series, it is almost the end of 150,000 or 60,000 episodes.

That is to say, Li Cheng starred in a TV series or movie, five million is the sky, fifteen million, and he really dares to speak.

Of course Zeng Xiaoxian can't agree, even if the other party is his old friend, Zeng Xiaoxian is not short of money, if it is really necessary, Zeng Xiaoxian will not blink his eyes, but now Zeng Xiaoxian is from the position of a director, naturally from the director's point of view, every penny must be carefully calculated, and the majority of that money will eventually fall into the pocket of the company.

What really came to Li Cheng's hands was only thirty to forty percent, and from this point of view, Zeng Xiaoxian would not compromise on this issue anymore.

Finally, after several negotiations, Li Cheng's agency agreed that Li Cheng would join "Thai Embarrassment" at a value of 10 million, which is close to the top domestic male star.

In addition to the two protagonists, there is also a male protagonist in "Thai Embarrassment", whose roles are very heavy and require great effort to shape.

Zeng Xiaoxian has long been eyeing the domestic comedy star Wang Lei, and directly asked the company's people to contact him.

solves the problem of funding and crew, then the rest is the selection of actors, after the rumor is released to recruit actors, a large number of young men and women with star dreams came to the temporary office point, the male and female protagonists are already available, and they have been selected in advance, but as long as they can act, even if they are just some supporting roles, it is okay.

In fact, many young people want to be able to play the lead role in their first show, but that's not possible.

General movies and TV series are not idol dramas, and they do not have high requirements for acting skills, and it is generally good for young people without any experience and background to have a supporting role.

There are several female characters in it, and the roles are not too heavy, Zeng Xiaoxian is ready to arrange people from his company, such as Hu Yifei, such as Tang Youyou, and even Li Shishi. (To be continued.) )
