"It's not easy, I've finally waited for this day."

Li Xuechu looked at Ye Zhiming next to him amusedly: "Isn't it a month longer than the original plan?" "It's not so big, is it?

"It's really not like the boss of a film company should say, don't say this kind of thing to those directors, otherwise you won't be able to live." Ye Zhiming rolled his eyes and said angrily. "Those directors are more difficult to serve than uncles."

Li Xuechu didn't know what to say when he was a freshman, and this movie seemed to really toss Ye Zhiming badly.

After more than half a year of crisis, Ye Zhiming was quite dissatisfied with the filming degree of the great director Wu Yushen, and what made him even more dissatisfied was that when the filming progress was almost over, the director returned to Oriental DreamWorks and spread his hands: there was no money. Ye Zhiming immediately soared: "Ten million Xiangjiang coins are not enough, do you want to do it?" The film hasn't been good for almost half a year, and now you're embarrassed to tell me that you have no money? ”

The great director of later generations was scolded by Ye Zhiming so red that he couldn't do anything. With a budget of tens of millions, it is almost impossible to recover the cost locally in today's Xiangjiang. Golden Harvest Golden Princess and others may be able to hold the cinema chain, but it means a huge risk for independent studios. But scolding and scolding, the money still has to be given, or what should I do? You can't scrap most of the film, right?

In fact, Director Wu is not easy, the crew runs in Xiangjiang and Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, and the framing and negotiation with the local area are all annoying, and the budget is out in terms of time and venue costs. On the one hand, the film support is the result of excellence, and on the other hand, it is also a poor outreach. Southeast Asian counterparts are unexpectedly difficult, and local governments have not shown enthusiasm for films.

In the past two years, the restrictions on Xiangjiang films in various countries have become more and more stringent, and it is basically impossible to open a convenient door for you, so you will be good if you don't feel embarrassed.

After all, Hong Kong is not the United States, and you can enjoy all kinds of benefits and conveniences around the world. What's more, Xiangjiang Films doesn't have much status in the government, and basically ignores it. The negotiations for the filming location were basically done by the crew and DreamWorks themselves, but it was cheaper than the later hurricane rescue crew.

"I knew that Jiahe would go first, so they had a hard relationship." Li Xuechu secretly regretted that the millions of funds were thrown into the water, which is enough to make a small-budget movie now.

"The budget of three consecutive films is tens of millions, which is a lot of pressure on the company. Chu Zai, I know you don't care about this money, but you can't mess around like this as a company, this is not the way of thinking of a normal company. Ye Zhiming persuaded.

"It's okay, I'm confident in my films. I won't lose money, so don't worry. ”

Ye Zhiming opened his mouth to say something, but finally shook his head and sighed.

Li Xuechu knew his partner's idea, and the idea of the Xiangjiang film industry was to make money in the local area or at least return the capital, and then go to other cities to make money. However, with this small market, according to this number of roads, you don't want to make a big system for the rest of your life. Now those who have the confidence to make a big production are Jiahe and Princess Jin, and Princess Jin retracted back to continue tinkering with small-cost comedies according to her own understanding, and Jiahe's resources are tilted towards Chen Long. Chen Long now has a lot of popularity in Japan and South Korea, and he doesn't have to worry about making money back with this.

Looking at Ye Zhiming, who was silent, Li Xuechu persuaded: "It's okay, we still have the European market, which is much more than the Asian market." ”

"This market makes me feel very uncertain, although I am making a lot of money there now." Ye Zhiming smiled bitterly. "Europe and the United States don't look down on us very much, now our movies can make money for them, of course it's easy to talk, once two or three films don't make money in a row, what will happen to you?"

"That's right, too." Although he came from later generations, Li Xuechu didn't dare to guarantee that the film department would not lose money, many of his films were from the nineties or even the new century, and it was normal that they were not compatible with this era. Coupled with the white man's natural resistance to the Oriental face, it is normal to pounce on one or two.

But anyway, the money is invested anyway, and it's useless to think too much. The most important thing is that compared with other businesses, this coveted film company is the most inconspicuous in terms of earning power. Ye Zhiming's worries are right, he does have a tendency to change to hobbies in the operation of the film company, and he is a bit less like an operator.

"Li Sheng, Ye Sheng, the movie is about to start, let's go in." Wu Yushen walked over and said softly.

Wu Yu was also very guilty about the extension of the film support and shooting cycle, but from the position of a director, he still persevered despite the accusation. Director Wu is reluctant to smash a movie in his own hands, especially the subject matter he likes.

"Let's go, it's time to go in." Ye Zhiming didn't give Director Wu any more face, the previous words were said to Li Xuechu, so that he could pay more attention.

Li Ye and Wu Yushen and a vote of actors and crew members rushed in.

"Ah Hong......" Li Xuechu deliberately walked a few steps slowly, and shouted softly next to Zhong Chuhong.

Zhong Chuhong glanced at him with a complicated expression.

"Li Sheng, what's the matter?"

The salutation became polite, and his tone was neither salty nor light, so that Li Xuechu swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth back into his mouth.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask how you've been doing, I haven't been in touch for a while."

"It's okay, don't worry about the appointment. It's been a fulfilling time, but I don't have much time to connect with friends. ”

"That's fine, but you still have to pay attention to your body. Some films are simply not filmed, it's not cost-effective......"

"Chuzai!" Zhong Chuhong interrupted Li Xuechu's words.

"What's the matter, Sister Hong." Hearing Zhong Chuhong's scream, Li Xuechu secretly had an expectation.

Zhong Chuhong looked at him fixedly, and then lowered his head again. "Let him pass the past, everyone has to look forward."

Looking at Zhong Chuhong, who hurriedly walked a few steps to avoid himself, Li Xuechu smiled bitterly. That night's events seem to be just yiyeqing, after it's over, don't think about me, and I won't look for you anymore, go your own way.

I can't bear it.

"Did anything happen between you?" Suddenly, a soft whisper sounded in my ears.

Li Xuechu, who was taken aback, turned his head suddenly, and almost had a mouth-to-mouth relationship with the owner of the voice next to him.

"Whew, scare me." The beauty stroked her chest and said.

This person Li Xuechu also 'knows', Guan Jiahui. I didn't pay attention to it when the list of actors was raised, but I only appeared when I saw the real person: Isn't this 'Aunt Thirteen'? It turned out to be this name before changing the stage name.

"Guan Jiahui, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Li." 'Aunt Thirteen' stretched out her hand. She also played an important supporting role in the crisis, that is, the female liaison in the agent killer group, this role can run through the entire crisis trilogy, the role is not light, it is said that she will not be asked to play, it is estimated that Director Wu is but her father's affection. Guan Jiahui's father, Guan Shan, is also an old man of the Shaw Family.

"I know, it's nice to meet you." Li Xuechu also reached out and shook it.

"I thought you didn't know me, you didn't say hello to me when you came to visit the class before." Guan Jiahui pretended to be dissatisfied and said.

"Hehe, in fact, I don't know most of the crew very well." When Li Xuechu arrived at the crew, in addition to caring about the filming process and the quality of the movie, his mind was full of Zhong Chuhong, of course, he would not make eye contact with other women. Although I already recognized people, I still didn't talk to them.

"By the way, what were you talking about?" Guan Jiahui didn't let go of her hand, and asked with a roll of her eyes.

"Well, it's nothing, Ah Hong and I have been friends before, say hello." Li Xuechu said embarrassedly.

"Oh~" Guan Meinu didn't say anything more.

"I heard that your company is preparing to shoot a new drama recently, have you found the actors?"

It seems that he came to ask for a role. "I haven't found it yet, this matter is mainly left to Director Hu."

"Can you leave me a role?"

Guan Jiahui suddenly spared Li Xuechu's palm with her fingers, leaned close to him and whispered in his ear: "Don't worry, I promise I won't let you down." ”

Letting go of the hand she had been holding, Guan Jiahui smiled flatteringly and walked away.

Obvious hints.

Do you want to accept it? As a boss, it is very simple to arrange an artist to join the crew, as for acting skills or something, it is enough to give Hu Jinquan a headache. is only one, so as not to make the film bad, and now people's requirements for acting skills are not too high......

Li Xuechu has already begun to persuade himself. Speaking of which, my original plan was to see if I could continue the frontier...... Okay, it's yellow, but it's changed too quickly, and I'm still sad just now.

Li Xuechu was a little ashamed.

When he arrived at the seat, Li Xuechu sat next to his brother and Ye Zhiming. Director Wu was supposed to sit in his brother's position, but he may have left a shadow in the previous dispute, and he lost his position with his brother and avoided Ye Zhiming far away. And Zhong Chuhong sat next to Wu Yushen, two positions away from him, and he couldn't say anything if he wanted to.

Guan Jiahui sat in the back row of herself, and the person directly behind her fell out of position, Li Xuechu was very nervous, turned his face and glanced at Zhong Chuhong, fortunately, people didn't pay attention to anything.

It didn't take long for the movie to begin. Although it has only been open for more than a year, Oriental DreamWorks' previous films have attracted a group of die-hard supporters, raising the attendance of the midnight screening to almost full. Li Xuechu is deeply satisfied with this, and the risk of failure of the screening is greatly reduced.

Every year, there are still many movies in Xiangjiang that suffer from Waterloo because of the unsuccessful midnight test screening, some of which are of poor quality and make the audience dissatisfied and make trouble, and some may be hired by competitors. This is a hidden risk in the film industry, except for Golden Harvest Shaw Brothers, no one dares to make a mistake, and other small film companies are somewhat afraid of midnight test screenings. However, if the people watching the movie are all fans of the company, the risk is undoubtedly much smaller.

The word-of-mouth has accumulated a lot, and it is not in vain that I have put in the hard work of giving up the small-budget comedy to shoot the 'big production zuò'.

Li Xuechu has already seen the movie, and this time it is mainly to see the audience's reaction. It feels good, there is basically no noise in the theater, and the audience is very engaged, and it seems that they are attracted by the plot.

Speaking of which, Mark Damon's two-part system was taken away by himself, so don't hurt people in the future...... Li Xuechu shook his head and threw out the inexplicable thoughts.

Suddenly feeling his clothes tight, Li Xuechu turned his head and glanced at it. A woman's hand reached into the pocket of her jacket, spared it through the garment, and then took it back. Needless to say, I know who it is.

This scene happened to be seen by my brother, and he smiled meaningfully.

"Let's watch a movie." Li Xuechu stretched out his hand awkwardly.

"Well, watch a movie." Brother smiled and turned back to watch the movie 'attentively'.

Seeing that no one was paying attention anymore, Li Xuechu quietly picked up the piece of paper stuffed in his pocket and took a look at it through the faint light of the theater.

Room 3O1 of XX Hotel.

I don't feel like I'm in the mood to watch a movie.
