The new film passed the review, and "a great literary director challenged a commercial comedy", which received a lot of attention at the first time. In China, business is still a very eye-catching word, and Feng Xiaogang has been repeatedly criticized for being too commercial, philistine, and without the proper discipline of a literary artist. But now there are people openly flaunting the banner of business and hyping it, how can it not attract people's attention.

Secondly, people are also very concerned about whether this young man is a meteor or a star in the sky.

Mountains and seas opened their investment openings, and the investment amount had not yet been decided, so An Le insisted that they wanted half of it. This is impossible, Happy is only willing to release half of the gap, and Beijing Film Studio is not easy to mess with. Huayi, who didn't even know the insider, stretched out his tentacles, thinking that there was a lack of money here, and he even wanted to participate...... Funny isn't.

In the end, Beijing Film Studio invested 30% and Anle invested 20%, but the two parties can only enjoy the distribution and box office dividends of the same proportion of investment in Asia. The issuance in Europe and the United States, mountains and seas have to be undertaken by themselves, and the dividends are only 20% at most. At this point, Beijing Film Studio is more entangled, as a domestic bigwig, how can they have been so coerced by other companies. What they are greedy for is the huge profit of the distribution of "Grand Central Station" in Europe and the United States. It's just that the initiative is not in their hands on this issue.

Happy and the Finance Department roughly calculated the budget and proposed an upfront amount of three million.

Million? That's not a problem at all. This amount of investment, as long as the auction is not too bad, is basically a profitable deal. An Le didn't say a word, and immediately transferred 600,000, and the 900,000 yuan from Beijing Film Studio also arrived quickly.

Yu Dong was very enthusiastic and said, "The money has arrived, brother, where do we start with our role selection?" With your current reputation as a cutting-edge director, as long as you open your mouth, I believe that there will be a large number of responders immediately. ”

"Heh, brother is polite."

"Low-key, low-key, it shouldn't be so."

This movie is co-produced by Xingxing, Han Sanpin and Jiang Zhiqiang, just be happy, but the latter two have a lot of right to speak, whether in China or Hong Kong. It's just that these two are busy people, Han Sanpin is busy with the affairs of the factory, and I heard that China Film is about to be established, and Beijing Film Studio is also going to be merged, and he is busy fighting for power and profit, so he sent Yu Dong to take full responsibility.

Jiang Zhiqiang is a businessman in charge, and he has been running very hard recently, but he is also in charge of the preparation of another film, and he is also busy at both ends. He also took out a stack of documents from his briefcase and said, "Most of the information you want about Hong Kong's second-tier actors is here." Many people haven't filmed for a long time, and they have changed careers, selling insurance, doing business, and being cleaners...... While I'm still here, take a closer look and ask me which one you like. ”

Look at his busy eyes, all bloodshot...... was so happy that his heart suddenly moved, and he asked a digression, and said: "Mr. Jiang, another movie by An Le, but "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Li Case? ”

"Hey, you know."

Jiang Zhiqiang thought where he heard the rumors, "This movie has an American background, there are a lot of entanglements, the script has not been finalized, and filming will start next year." ”

happily, he said casually: "I'm very interested in this movie, if you need any help, Mr. Jiang, you have to think of me." ”

"You actually like martial arts?" Jiang Zhiqiang didn't take it to heart, shook his head and said: "Martial arts have been filmed badly, and it is difficult to shoot new ideas." If it weren't for the fact that the director of this film was the Li case, I wouldn't have participated in it. The implication is to let happiness not be involved. Happy and unwilling, he instructed: "I'm really interested, Mr. Jiang must be careful." ”

Jiang Zhiqiang glanced at him in surprise, and made sure that it was not a joke, so he nodded, which was acceptable.

Happy also smiled, and returned to the topic: "The actors needed for this movie actually have an impression in my heart, and it is appropriate to just look at the audition effect." It doesn't have to be a star actor, it is the first choice to cooperate with each other tacitly, and the role fit is high. ”

The name is "Crazy Smoking Gun", which is the first part of the "Crazy Series" he planned.

It probably tells the story of a few mainland gangsters Ade and his friends who went to Macau to make a fortune, participated in the H social gambling game but owed a huge amount of money, and planned to rob a group of drug dealers, who robbed the drug supplier on the same day, and the accidents were frequent, and finally turned into a completely unpredictable farce.

The photographer did not pick too much, he worked closely with Zhao Xiaoding, and this time he naturally convened the old department. With the first movie brushing up, and the start of the second movie, the benefits are immediately apparent. This time he convened the crew, which was basically a phone call. In every position, you have to pick a good one.

This is a group drama movie, with as many as 22 main characters. The most important four mainland migrant worker roles in Aopiao, Liu Ye counts one, Happy himself counts one, and there are two left, which need to be carefully considered.

The company's new office location is still being searched, but not long after the announcement of the movie looking for actors was posted, the interview day immediately made nearby Nortel, Chinese opera and a group of Jingpiao flock to it.

"The appearance does not have to be handsome, with me here, others can't be handsome, but it must be interesting, the more special the appearance, the better." I tried several times in a row, but none of them quite met what he had in mind.

The queue outside is still very long, and several Nortel's and Chinese operas are clearly distinguished, and they are secretly competing with each other. This time, Nortel's wrist is not small, and a "Huanzhu Gege" made Xiaoyanzi popular, and the handsome guys and beauties in the entire Chinese opera looked dimmed as soon as she came.

"Xiao Yezi, you are still a classmate for many years, do you have a conscience, and you don't reveal any inside story, what kind of role does the director want." A few guys from Class 96 grabbed Liu Ye and complained.

"Brother and sister, can we stop pulling clothes." Liu Ye looked bitter and said, "What kind of person I am, you don't know yet." If there's any inside information, can I tell you about it beforehand? The main thing is that even I don't know much, but the actress can basically go back. This is a men's play, just a female character or a drunkard. ”

"Ah, men's play, it's really unlucky, and I ran for nothing." Yuan Quan and Hu Jing immediately lost their interest and shouted that they were going back. Zhang Ziyi was also very disappointed, and suddenly saw a familiar figure walking in at the door, and walked over after being slightly stunned and said, "Brother Sun Honglei, why are you here?" ”

"Ziyi." Sun Honglei was stunned, "I received an invitation from the company to come to audition." You're also here for an audition? But I don't think I've heard that there are no female characters. ”

"I'm here...... Accompany the learner, hehe. ”

"Then you wait for a while, I may be late, go over and report first." Those who took the initiative to invite were naturally given preferential treatment, and Sun Honglei reported his name and was immediately invited in. This special treatment immediately caused a lot of discussion outside: everyone else came by himself, but he was specially invited, could it be that he didn't know about it? Even Liu Ye was a little unconscious, and his eyes became weird, full of competition.

"Who is this man?" Hu Jing asked Zhang Ziyi in a low voice.

"Didn't I act in a movie directed by Zhang Yimou at the beginning of the year, he is one of our leading actors."

Hu Jing looked jealous, and didn't forget to count Liu Ye, "Liu Ye, you don't know anything about your own company, and everyone else knows it better than anyone else." ”

"......" Liu Ye smacked his lips, but he was speechless, who told him that he hadn't asked. When he was depressed, a buddy next to him came over and handed a cigarette and said, "Dude, you have been selected, right?" ”

Liu Ye straightened his chest, "I am the contracted actor of this company, and the first role to be decided is me." ”

"High! Terrible! ”

The buddy gave a thumbs up, "Then can I ask, what kind of characters are needed for this movie, you look like me...... Will it work? ”

Liu Ye glanced at him carefully, he was a little handsome, but he was far behind himself, so he immediately didn't take it to heart, and said with a big grin: "How old are you, have you ever learned acting, do you have your ID card?" ”

"Yes, yes." The buddy hurriedly took out his ID card from his pocket, "My name is Huang Bo, 74 years old, I am currently a resident singer, and I also run tricks in my spare time." ”

Liu Ye picked up his ID card and looked at it for a long time, and sighed: "The years are urging people to get old, you are only 24 years old, how can you have pleats." ”

"Ah...... Yes! Huang Bo blinked, his smile a little awkward.

"Actually," Liu Ye pulled him over and said earnestly: "This movie doesn't need too handsome actors, the director is quite narcissistic, and those who are more handsome than him must not want to pass." It's just because I'm a little more handsome than him, and I'm bullied by him everywhere. Appearance doesn't have to be handsome, the important thing is the gangster temperament, I think you are quite promising. Come on, bro, I'll go inside and see what's going on. ”

"Eh, eh, okay, you're busy."

Although he was counted out for a while, Huang Bo also heard useful news, and he was still very happy. When I came back to my senses, I wanted to smoke a cigarette, but I felt that something was wrong when I touched my whole body, ", you took away my whole pack of cigarettes." ”
