Chapter 84: Two or Three Things About "Ghost Fighting".

In Xiang Kee Teahouse, after the principle of "cordial and friendly, in line with mutual assistance and mutual consultation", Kang Hu and Hong Jinbao reached the following contract.

Hong Jinbao received a total salary of 400,000 yuan as the leading actor and action director, and Kang Hu couldn't help it, after all, his relationship with Hong Jinbao was average, and it was impossible to ask Hong Jinbao to give a friendship price like Mecca, as for the opening ceremony of "Salted Fish Rebirth", Kang Hu asked Hong Jinbao to give a friendship price, Kang Hu didn't mention it, who can take it seriously when it was all a scene?

Because the members of the Hong family class in "Ghost Fighting Ghosts" are basically members, and there is no need for Kang Hu to contact again, Hong Jinbao has already agreed for them just now, and their remuneration Hong Jinbao has also negotiated with Kang Hu for them.

After Hong Jinbao left, Kang Hu calculated, plus the main roles of Zhong Fa and Chen Hui, as well as some other supporting roles such as Lin Zhengying, the actor's salary alone was 550,000, and his budget for renting the studio, producing, and plantation Lin Lin finally reached 900,000......

Based on the fact that Kang Hu can only get a 30% box office share in the Golden Princess, if the box office of the movie is less than 3 million, he will not earn a penny, and he will have to take time to get in.

You must know that in the annual box office of the original time and space in 1980, only the top 6 only passed the box office of 4 million, and the seventh place was only 3.6 million......

As for the other characters like Wu Ma and Huang Xia, they are all cameos, and it is not a big problem to invite them, it is nothing more than spending more money.

After a busy day, Kang Hu finally finished the crew's affairs, Kang Hu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and collapsed on the sofa after taking a taxi home, simulating in his mind which shots should be filmed, and which ones can be improved on the basis of the original, this is Kang Hu's debut, Kang Hu doesn't want to mess up, he wants the entire Hong Kong film industry to know that there is such a number one person as himself.

Until Zhao Yuzhi came back, Kang Hu was still excited, so that the two of them ate noodles again today, but fortunately, Kang Hu's homemade food was also good, otherwise Zhao Yuzhi would be pitiful......

The next morning, Kang Hu waited for Hong Jinbao's call, Hong Jinbao was ready, and the two discussed the start time, and finally decided to set it for two days later, hung up Hong Jinbao's phone, and Kang Hu went out and went straight to the Shaw Brothers studio.

found the person in charge of managing the studio at the Shaw Brothers studio and rented the studio, and Kang Hu called the lighting, camera, set affairs, etc., to inform them of the start time and place.

When he walked out of the Shaw Brothers set, Kang Hu suddenly found a problem, he didn't seem to have an office yet! But think about it, anyway, he is the commander of his own light pole, and he will not sit in the office every day now, so he will talk about it later.

In this way, another day passed, Kang Hu used the rented crew car to go directly to the store to pull back the camera and recorder he ordered, and then simply put it in the car, waiting for tomorrow to pull it directly to the crew.

On May 20th, 10 years ago, a great man in the north of Hong Kong issued a statement of "The people of the world unite to defeat the American invaders and all their lackeys", and for Kang Hu, today is the day when he officially stepped onto the stage of history, and it must be a day worth remembering in the future film history.

Kang Hu took all the crew members and began to worship God under the command of the invited mage, Kang Hu is not short of money, so there is also a worship ceremony.

Because Kang Hu is the director and producer, there are only two people when cutting the suckling pig, Kang Hu and Hong Jinbao, this is the first time Kang Hu has cut it, but Kang Hu is a good cook......

Finally, after seeing Kang Hu's knife technique, Hong Jinbao made a few symbolic cuts, and then handed over the job to Kang Hu.

After everyone in the crew ate the pork cut by Kang Hu, Kang Hu loudly announced, "The crew of "Ghost Fights Ghost" is on. ”

In their memoirs or interviews, many people present in later generations described Kang Hu as having nothing in the sky or on the earth.

In fact, Kang Hu was thinking in his heart at this time, "Lao Tzu is also a person who can uncover rules......"

The first scene is Zhang Daring played by Hong Jinbao, who is scared to wake up from a dream at home, the heroine in the play is still the original version of Liang Xuewei, although it is not very good-looking, but Kang Hu didn't care, and he didn't think about letting his current woman play it, after all, a woman with red apricots out of the wall is not a good role, and there are scenes of missing so much meat in her belly pocket.

The scenes to be filmed today are all the scenes of Zhang Dadang's family, and Kang Hu also uses jump shots, which is the most cost-effective and trouble-saving, Kang Hu is mainly to save trouble, so it is a high requirement for actors, but Hong Jinbao They are all old actors and are used to this way.

When he shouted "action" for the first time, Kang Hu's heart was pounding, it was one thing to watch others do it, and it was another thing to come in person.

"Cut, it's over" When Kang Hu finally shouted that the first shot was completed, Kang Hu seemed to find some feeling of being a director.

As for whether there is anyone in the crew who bullied Kang Hu young and pointed fingers, there is really no this, one is that these people have worked with Kang Hu and have some understanding of Kang Hu's ability, and another Kang Hu is both the director and the investor, in other words, Kang Hu is the one who pays them salaries, who will offend their God of Wealth?

The filming process on the first day was not very fast, after all, Kang Hu was the first to host the overall shooting, he needed to adapt, and the crew also needed to run in, but overall the shooting went smoothly.

It took Kang Hu 2 days to finish filming all the scenes in Zhang Daring's house, and then began to film the scene where Zhang Daring was scared by three friends pretending to be ghosts.

This scene is Zhang Daring made a bet with a friend, he wanted to be at a friend's house at three o'clock in the afternoon, lighting a candle and peeling apples in the mirror.

Kang Hu shouted "cut" and walked to Hong Jinbao's side, and said with a smile: "Brother Sanmao, apples are not worth much, don't save so much." ”

Hong Jinbao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then laughed and understood that they were all old drama bones.

At the beginning of the second time, Hong Jinbao cut thin and thick this time, which is very in line with the character's nervous inner emotions at this time.

After filming smoothly for more than a month, Kang Hu's control of the crew, as well as the identity of the director, is becoming more and more familiar, and the shooting speed is getting faster and faster, everyone, including Hong Jinbao, is more and more sure of Kang Hu's ability, even if there were some people who despised Kang Hu at the beginning, they also put away this idea at this time.

The whole plot Kang Hu has not changed at all, because he feels that the original version is very good, and he can't find anything wrong, and he doesn't say anything about the special effects props in the play, because Hong Kong is like this at this time.

Kang Hu also doesn't want to be like George Lucas, without a good special effects studio, so he creates his own, Kang Hu is ready to directly acquire a special effects studio in the United States in the future, and then use the American studio to train a group of people in Hong Kong.

As for why this is matched, Kang Hu does not look down on Hong Kong special effects people, but Hong Kong really can't afford to raise top special effects companies, Hong Kong's big-budget films, in the United States is a medium-sized investment film, Kang Hu is the most training base in Hong Kong, the best talent is sent to the United States to earn dollars, and the general ones stay to make money in Asia.

Kang Hu's filming process of "Ghost Fights Ghosts", the only difference from his Hong Kong counterparts at this time is that the requirements are much stricter, so the shooting speed is not as fast as Mecca.

On June 23rd, there is only the last scene left in "Ghost Bites Ghost", which is also the highlight of the whole movie, that is, the last fighting method of the good and evil mage, this scene is basically all fighting, so it is necessary to shoot while designing the action, fortunately, there are a few actors with action scenes, Hong Jinbao will not say it, the role of the good and evil mage is Zhong Fa and Chen Hui, members of the Hong family's class, and the play is commonplace for them, it is Huang Xia, an old actor who plays Master Tan, and is also a member of the Liu family class in the four major classes in Hong Kong.

At present, the four major classes in Hong Kong are Hong Jinbao's Hong Family Class, Cheng Long's Family Formation Class, Yuan Family Brothers' Yuan Family Class and Liu Jialiang's Liu Family Class.

Among them, the first three are all from the northern faction, and only the last Liu Jiaban is from the southern faction.

At this time, the most popular is the Hong family class and the newly rising family class, Liu Jiaban with the decline of the Shaw Brothers has been much worse than before, but it is worth mentioning that the first three are singles Shaolin Temple, only Liu Jiaban has a female star Hui Yinghong, and she is also the most popular girl in Hong Kong in the past two years!
