Chapter 50: Planning "Smiling Proud Jianghu" (Asking for Recommendation)

Chapter 50 Planning "Smiling Proud Jianghu" (Ask for Recommendation)

"Ah Zero, I love you to death."

Wang Jing said excitedly: "Ah Ling, in the future, I will press this one hundred and eighty catties on you and mix with you." ”

Hearing this, Chu Ling couldn't help but roll his eyes, ignoring Wang Jing who was excited, and asked with a smile: "Fatty, do you have any plans recently?" ”

I was stunned for a moment, woke up from the excitement, and asked with a little expectation, "What?" Do you have any plans? Anyway, I'll have to add one. ”

After speaking, looking at Chu Ling, who was rolling his eyes, he calmed down, thought for a while, and said: "I only have one "Frog Prince" in my hand, and the filming will be completed in half a month, and then I can hand it over to the Shaw Brothers in the later stage, and I can completely withdraw my hand." ”

After thinking for a while, Chu Ling nodded and said, "No problem, the initial preparations can almost be completed in half a month, and you will still be the producer at that time." ”

"Movie or TV series? What's the name? How much to invest? Wang Jing asked excitedly.

"Yes, adapted from Jin Yong's "Smiling Proud Jianghu", I plan to shoot the TV series and the movie together, and release them together when the time comes, and use the popularity of the TV series to drive the movie, this time, I must create a new box office record." Chu Ling said confidently.

That's right, this time, Chu Ling not only wants to shoot Chen Zheng's version of the TV series "New Smiling Proud Jianghu", but he also wants to shoot Xu Ke's movie version of "Smiling Proud Jianghu: The Undefeated East".

From the amazing box office of "Nightclub" this time, which was far beyond the actual situation, Chu Ling saw another kind of publicity, using the vast ratings of the TV series to promote the movie for free, and using the popularity of the TV series to drive the box office of the movie.

After speaking, he looked at the surprised Wang Jing, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said solemnly: "The shooting fund this time will cost about 30 million." ”

"30 million !!" Wang Jing exclaimed.

Looking at Chu Ling with a confident face in a daze, Wang Jing only felt a burst of shock, now filming a TV series, just like "Shooting the Condor", sixty episodes have a total of two million, and now the investment of three million in a movie is already a medium investment, and seven or eight million is a big production.

30 million is in Xiangjiang, which only Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest can afford, and even Xinyicheng, one of the three major film companies, does not dare to play such a big investment.

"Ah Zero, even if you shoot a movie and a TV series at the same time, will it cost 30 million? And" Wang Jing frowned and asked, "Do you have so much money?" ”

"It's completely necessary, the movie needs to use special effects, the TV series also uses some special effects shots, and I plan to use new costumes and props, and I plan to use the best for cameras and films, and in the end 30 million is not necessarily enough." Chu Ling said solemnly.

Ignoring the stunned Wang Jing, Chu Ling continued: "As for the preparatory funds, now I have 10 million in my hand, plus 5 million in Yindu, this is half, and I plan to sell the overseas copyrights of "Wulin Gaiden" and "Nightclub" in the next few days. ”

Speaking of which.

Chu Ling said calmly: "In order to collect funds, I will buy the overseas rights of "Wulin Gaiden" and "Nightclub" directly, instead of sharing the box office, if you don't agree, "Nightclub" will be forgotten." ”

Stunned for a moment, Wang Jing smiled and said: "No, just calculate it according to what you said, the 3.5 million yuan will be regarded as my investment, and the rest of the box office of "Nightclub" will also be regarded as an investment." ”

After speaking, he pushed the bank card that had not yet been covered with heat in front of Chu Ling.

Stunned for a moment, Chu Ling was not polite, he put it away directly, and said calmly: "Now it's a total of 20 million, but just in case, the copyright still has to continue to be sold, you can contact during this time to see if there is a way to sell the copyright." ”

"Okay, no problem." Wang Jing said with a smile.

After chatting for a while, the two left the teahouse and parted ways.

Walking on the street, Chu Ling rushed straight home, and when he got home, he was just in time for a few girls to have lunch, so he sat down directly to finish eating, and then called the three girls to the study.

"Sister Zhi, here is one million, of which 500,000 was borrowed from you last time, and the remaining 500,000 is this month's salary, as well as the red envelopes of "Nightclub" and "Wulin Gaiden". Chu Ling said as he handed a bank card to Zhao Muzhi.

After speaking, Chu Ling took out a new bank card and handed it to Weng Mei Ling and said: "Ah Hu, there are two million here, including red envelopes and this month's salary, most of which are the money I borrowed from you last time, and I count it as your investment in "Wulin Gaiden". ”

Finally, he handed over the bank card to Zhou Huimin and said with a smile: "Amin, here is 500,000 yuan, which is your salary and red envelopes during this time." ”

"This"

The three daughters of Zhao Mu couldn't help but glance at each other, and they all saw a hint of hesitation in each other's eyes, not knowing whether to accept the bank card in their hands.

Looking at the hesitant third girl, Chu Ling couldn't help but smile and said, "If you don't accept it, I'll be embarrassed to borrow money from you next time." ”

Hearing this, the third daughter put away her bank card.

Actually, if it weren't for the next plan, Chu Lingben would have wanted to give the third daughter a few million more.

"Let's get down to business."

Looking at the three daughters who came over, Chu Ling said with a smile: "I plan to shoot the TV and movie versions of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" separately, this time it is estimated that I will be busy until the end of the year, and I plan to go to the mainland to shoot, how about it?" Do you want to join? ”

"I'm fine, anyway, I didn't take on the show for the next period of time." Zhao Muzhi spoke first.

"I don't have a problem either." Subsequently, Weng Meiling also smiled and said, in fact, she took a script and originally planned to star in it, but now she can only push it down.

"Me"

Looking at the hesitant Zhou Huimin, Chu Ling remembered that the other party was still a student, and hurriedly smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I'll record the song with you first, and as for the post-production, I'll talk about it last, as for the shooting problem, just use your vacation time to shoot." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Huimin breathed a sigh of relief, to be honest, she really didn't want to be in school when Zhao Yazhi's two daughters got along with Chu Ling day and night, but she was studying at school, and at that moment just now, she even had the idea of suspending school.

Then.

Zhao Muzhi frowned and asked, "How are the actors and funds prepared?" ”

"It's almost the same in terms of funds, I'll find a way for the less part, as for the actors" Chu Ling frowned and said: "Ling Hu Chong will play me, Ah Weng will play Yue Lingshan, Amin will play Yilin, Sister Zhi will play Ren Yingying, as for the rest, let's find it slowly." ”

After speaking, Chu Ling noticed Zhou Huimin's hesitation, and after a little thought, he knew what the other party was worried about, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Amin, don't worry, Yilin in my version has hair, and she is definitely not bald." ”

"Huh?"

Hearing this, not only Zhou Huimin looked at Chu Ling differently, but Zhao Muzhi's two daughters also looked at Chu Ling in confusion, and they really couldn't understand how to adapt and be able to adapt Yilin into fluttering hair.

Although he saw the puzzlement of the three girls, Chu Ling did not explain, but smiled at Zhao Muzhi: "Sister Zhi, let's talk about it here, whether it is a movie or a TV series, the heroine is Dongfang Undefeated, it should be said that in the two dramas, Dongfang Undefeated is the real protagonist." ”

This time, the third girl could no longer hold back the surprise in her heart, and exclaimed with a stunned face: "Dongfang is undefeated?!" ”

Smiling, Chu Ling's eyes exuded a strange glow, and he said with a smile: "You will know when the script is created." ”

After talking about the character, Chu Ling pondered for a while, then raised his head and said: "I will draw the storyboard script as soon as possible, the post-production and soundtrack will be done by me and Amin, and I will discuss with Ah Weng to draw the design drawings for the costumes, and then find someone to make it." ”

Speaking of which.

Chu Ling said to Zhao Mu: "Sister Zhi, I believe you know a lot of makeup artists in the industry, I hope you can help me contact it, at least five people, of course, the salary is easy to say." ”

"No problem." Zhao Muzhi nodded with a smile and said, as an actor and a woman, she knows a lot about this area.

However, looking at Zhou Huimin's two daughters, both of whom are working, Zhao Du made up his mind in his heart to learn makeup skills from a few more girlfriends in the future, so that he can also help in the future.

"Whew"

With a long sigh of relief, after doing this, the preliminary preparations finally got off to a good start, but just at the beginning, Chu Ling was already a little overwhelmed, and he only felt a little lacking in skills, and the idea of giving up welled up in his heart.

Wang Jing was busy shooting, just by himself, Chu Ling couldn't be busy at all.

After resting for a while, Chu Ling took a pen and paper, first wrote the main cast, and then wrote the roles of himself and the third girl, and then thought about the actors of other roles, and slowly wrote them down on the paper.

Needless to say, Dongfang is undefeated, it must be Lin Qingxia, Yue Buqun let Zeng Jiang play, Ning Zhong let Honggu play, Lin Pingzhi Liu Tianwang played, Feng Qingyang Hongjin Bao, Tian Boguang let Xing Ye play, let me go to Xiangshuai to play, Zuo Lengchan Liang Jiahui

A piece of paper is full of names, of course, some are just the best choice, and people may not necessarily agree to play it, so he wrote several names behind each role.

Looking at the name on the paper, Chu Ling couldn't help but smile bitterly, although it was very luxurious on the paper, but this kind of luxury lineup was destined to be incomplete.

I found the business card I received at the hotel and piled it up in front of me.

The first one, Chu Ling first called Liu Tianwang, who had just met in the morning, after all, the first person had to ask the other party to agree, so as to increase his self-confidence.

After half a ring, no one answered, and at this time, Chu Lingfang remembered that the other party was filming, how could he answer the phone, and couldn't help but hang up the phone with a wry smile and find out Xing Ye's phone.

After hesitating for a while, Chu Ling finally put down the phone, after all, it is good to say that those who have worked together are unlikely to agree to star because of his phone call.

"Forget it, let's draw a storyboard script first, it will be more convincing to bring the script when the time comes." Chu Ling sighed.
