Chapter 105: Change
Making a movie is an extremely troublesome thing, setting up a project, writing a script, finding a director, and selecting actors...... Ouyang Zhanjun and Hua Tianwang were busy for this, but this had nothing to do with Qin Xuebing, because he was just an investor, and when the budget came out, he just sent the money over. Of course, when filming really starts, he will also take Xiaohei, Xiaobai and Xiaohong to the set to help.
Qin Xuebing cleaned up and rushed to Chen Lao's residence with the glass imperial green jade bracelet, which was also in Houhai, not far from Qin Xuebing's residence.
Perhaps it is a soft spot for the courtyard, after the failure of the investment in the mansion, Chen Lao bought a set of courtyards, but the area is not so large, it is a middle courtyard, 5 rooms in the north room, 3 is 2 ears, 3 rooms in the east and west wings, and there is a corridor in front of the house to shelter from the wind and rain. In addition, the courtyard wall is separated by the front yard and the back yard, and the courtyard wall is connected by the moon gate. The front yard is shallow in depth, with one or two houses as the gatehouse, the backyard is the living room, the building is exquisite, the square bricks in the layer are on the ground, and the bluestone is used as the steps.
Seeing Qin Xuebing coming in with the box, Chen Lao laughed: "You kid is amazing, you have caused a storm in the whole country, and now the people of the whole country are discussing what good things you get." ”
"There were so many special forces present at the time, do you think I dare to touch those things?" Qin Xuebing smiled bitterly and shook his head, except for commissions, those things can't be moved, otherwise not to mention the beauty snake and their official people, even Professor Huang will look for him to play with him.
"Boy, you're sloppy with me, if you don't move anything, you'll come back to see me today?" Chen Lao Rao looked at Qin Xuebing meaningfully, as if to say, these things can't be exposed, they can't be said explicitly, I understand.
"Your old man looks down on me so much, you must get something out of the treasure?"
Qin Xuebing was not angry, and put the box on the stone table in the middle of the courtyard: "You can see for yourself, this is an antique or a modern work of art." ”
"Well, it's a bracelet, a glass imperial green bracelet, good, a good thing." Chen Lao was not fascinated at a glance, the greenery was really intoxicating, and people were reluctant to take their eyes off.
"Old Chen, then our original agreement still counts, right?" Qin Xuebing now wants to coil the yard over as soon as possible, and then break ground and change the feng shui.
Qin Xuebing can't help but be in a hurry, the old man Qin has found a sense of qi, what he lacks is a treasure land of feng shui full of vitality, as long as the door of the mansion is renovated, the old man can successfully practice the qi refining technique, strengthen the body, and prolong life.
"Don't worry, what my old man said doesn't count."
Chen Lao put the jade back in the box, covered it, and said, "According to our agreement, as long as you can find the glass imperial green bracelet, the mansion door will be worth 300 million." In addition, the value of this jade bracelet is 150 million, how? ”
"Old Chen, this is too high, right?" Although Qin Xuebing also wanted to save some more money, Chen Lao had already made a big concession on the price of the courtyard, and it would be too unkind to use the jade bracelet to take advantage of it.
"Recently, the price of jadeite has been soaring, and the glass imperial green bracelet is completely worth this price, so it's decided."
Chen Lao said with a smile: "Speaking of which, these things are still made by you, first the jade coffin was launched, and then the six top jadeite pieces were taken out, and the jade jewelers took the opportunity to speculate, and the price was rising wildly every day." ”
"It has nothing to do with me." Qin Xuebing rolled his eyes, this is the result of market speculation, what does it have to do with him, if you have to say that there is, it is also because he found out the treasure, but is this wrong.
"Yes, let's not talk about it, let's talk about the house, you still need to pay me 150 million." Chen Lao said.
"Old Chen, can the money be transferred to you in a month?" Qin Xuebing now has nothing but antiques and gold, but not much cash.
"As long as the house is still there, you kid can't run away."
Chen Lao is not worried, Qin Xuebing can turn the deputy bureau boy around that day, can get a glass imperial green bracelet, can participate in the treasure hunt, the background is definitely not simple, and he will not rely on him for such a little money: "I will transfer the property rights to your name tomorrow, but can you kid use it so urgently?" ”
"I spend so much money to buy a house, and I can't earn an extra day if I move in a day earlier." Qin Xuebing said with a smile.
"Is there an algorithm like yours?"
Chen Lao shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "However, do you really dare to live in that house?" Don't tell me you don't know the story of that house. ”
"You've been watching the news these days, so you should know that I'm a feng shui master, right?" Qin Xuebing asked with a smile.
"Come on, if that house can be moved in if it is changed to feng shui, then I will still sell it?" Chen Lao didn't believe it in his heart, he didn't look for a feng shui master, but there was only one result, blind!
"If you don't sell it, how can I pick it up?" Qin Xuebing laughed, it was a rare feng shui treasure, of course, it was still a feng shui dead land.
"I should be picking up the cheap."
Chen Lao picked up the box and walked inside: "How about accompanying my old man to gamble on stones?" Let's see if we can get a few more good things. ”
"You'd better go by yourself, I'm still looking for an engineering team to do the construction." Qin Xuebing couldn't wait to draw the drawings, and then construct and move in as soon as possible.
Ouyang Zhanjun and Hua Tianwang began to get busy, and they were first discussing a question, what kind of film can enter the European and American markets.
As long as you understand the American film market, it is not difficult to find that the films that can enter the American market generally have two characteristics, one is a literary film, which uses movies to reflect social forms, ugly surnames, etc., and the other is a special film, based on its own nation, bringing national characteristics to the past, giving American fans a new feeling, just like "Enter the Dragon" brings American fans a new concept of kung fu films, just like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" brings American fans a new concept of oriental martial arts.
Now if you want to shoot a treasure hunt film, you must not be able to make an art film, not to mention the European and American markets, even the domestic market may be defeated, so you can only take the commercial route and take the characteristic route.
"Oriental treasure hunting, how do you think it has a strong character?" Although Ouyang Zhanjun is an investor, he doesn't have a deep understanding of movies, so more questions are left to Hua Tianwang.
"Feng Shui, antiques, kung fu, plus those three animals, should be able to develop into a characteristic."
Hua Tianwang already has some concepts, but this is not critical, the key is to refract these concepts through the lens to achieve a shocking effect: "I think we should first determine the director, a capable and experienced director is more important than anything else." ”
"Lao Zhang, Lao Wu, Lao Li?" Ouyang Zhanjun feels that these three guys are more reliable, and they have all succeeded in Hollywood, especially director Lao Li, who is also the best director at the Oscar.
"Lao Zhang's control of long sleep and mastery of color are all first-class, but he is not very good at telling stories; Lao Wu's pioneer of violent aesthetics is also first-class in all aspects, but the films he has made over the years are either not popular or not popular; Comrade Lao Li eats well in Hollywood, but he has never filmed the theme of treasure hunting. Hua Tianwang felt that the eggs hurt, these three directors are the top, but they all have their own advantages and shortcomings.
"Why don't you find Lao Wu, I think he should be more suitable." Ouyang Zhanjun suggested that the films directed by Lao Wu always give people a cool and enthusiastic feeling, which is more suitable for the theme of treasure hunting.
Moreover, several films shot in recent years also have a good grasp of national characteristics, and if they are integrated into this hottest topic, they should have a great chance of success.
"Try to get in touch, but you may not be able to get involved." Hua Tianwang doesn't think that these directors can be invited casually, first of all, they have to be interested in the subject matter, and secondly, they must give them enough funds, otherwise they will not be in the mood to make a film that is short of money everywhere.
"What about the actors? You should be in the show, right? "Ouyang Zhanjun didn't want to let go of Hua Tianwang, this guy is a box office gold absorber, with him joining and without him, the box office will show two results.
"But it's not appropriate for me to play Qin Xuebing, right?" Hua Tianwang also wanted to act, but after thinking about it carefully, he was very depressed, Qin Xuebing was a college student, didn't he let him pretend to be tender.
"This is going to be handed over to the stylist, without the support of you older generations, I wouldn't have invested so much money to kill me." Ouyang Zhanjun doesn't have a deep understanding of movies, but he knows the market very well, a big investment film, without the support of top stars, it will be extremely difficult to succeed. Moreover, with such a big investment of seven or eight billion, who can rest assured if there is no superstar support? Who can rest assured?
"Okay, then I'll pretend to be tender once, and the salary will be halved." Since Hua Tianwang has decided to give it a go, he has made comprehensive preparations, and the salary saved will be invested in post-production to ensure the effect of the film, and he will get more.
"If you want to be generous, I can't stop it, and the film does need more production costs."
Ouyang Zhanjun did not refuse, the investment in this film is too large, and the effect of the film must be ensured: "Next, you are responsible for contacting the best screenwriting team, and I am responsible for setting up the project and striving to start filming as soon as possible, after all, news is time-sensitive." ”
Qin Xuebing hurried home, Old Man Qin and Qin Xiaoxiao also rushed back from the hospital, but their faces were not very good, especially Qin Xiaoxiao, who was sitting on the sofa, stunned, and tears flowed out without money.
Qin Xuebing was immediately anxious, and hurriedly asked, "Xiaoxiao, what's wrong?" Is someone bullying you, tell my brother, and my brother will help you teach him a lesson. ”
"Brother, my dad, my dad ......" Qin Xiaoxiao didn't say a few words, and then cried again.
"What's wrong with Uncle Zhao? Could it be ...... in the hospital" Qin Xuebing looked at the old man with a hint of bad premonition.
"People are fine, but there is something wrong with the preoperative preparation."
Old Man Qin sighed: "I have already found bone marrow suitable for transplantation in the bone marrow bank, but when I contacted the other party, the other party said that I was unwilling, and now the hospital is also having a headache." ”
