Wang Jing has been annoyed lately.

reminds me of the middle of the year, "Happy Ghost", which cost only 2 million, became a blockbuster with a box office of 2.12 million in four weeks as soon as it was released, ranking third in Hong Kong's annual box office, second only to "Plan A" and "Food Truck".

Because of "Happy Ghost", he has become a famous commercial director among Hong Kong directors, although he can't be compared with directors such as Xu Ke and Xu Anhua, but he can already be included in the top five commercial film directors.

Wang Jing, who has achieved fame, naturally received a large number of invitations to film shooting.

There are no regulations restricting the signing of directors by Time and Space Film Studio, as long as the studio's filming plan is not delayed, it is possible to go outside to take on work.

So Wang Jing made six movies non-stop not long after painting "Happy Ghost", and now in December, it is almost less than a month to make one.

It's a pity that happiness is sad, there is no good script, and every movie is launched in a hurry, although Wang Jing tried his best to shoot it, it was difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

Of these six movies, two of them were not even qualified to be released at all, so they were shot before they were handed to the company. The remaining four, although they were barely painted, came and went in a hurry, and after three days of release, they were driven down after taking more than 100,000 box office.

Even if the cost of these movies is not high, most of them are in the early hundreds of thousands, but a loss is a loss.

Originally, a director, no matter how clever his directing skills were, could not say that every film he directed could get a high box office.

Wang Jing thought the same way at first, so when the first of these six movies was released, there was only a box office of more than 300,000 and then it was disgraced. Although he was also a little worried, he always felt that it was accidental, as long as he worked hard. The next one will be fine.

didn't expect that a crab was not as good as a crab, and a large number of movies were made, not only making himself physically and mentally exhausted, but also because of these six movies, the reputation he established with "Happy Ghost" stinked. When I think about it, it's really worth the loss.

Directing is different from other films in the industry. In general, it is a high-risk industry with high investment, and if you are not careful, you will lose money. You're a director, and your reputation stinks. No one dares to invest in a movie for you to shoot anymore, after all, others are not fools, knowing that you are a bad movie director, they will automatically send it to the door.

Now Hong Kong includes Taiwanese film production companies. At the mention of Wang Jing's name, he frowned.

There are even newspapers that start with "How bold people are. How prolific is the land", to ridicule Wang Jing "How bold a person is, how crazy he can be when making movies", and gave him the nickname of "the king of bad movie directors".

Stealing chickens is not a handful of rice, and he has earned the nickname of "the king of bad movie directors", Wang Jing doesn't mention how much he regrets it, and he didn't even dare to go out for a while, for fear of being seen when he went out, he would mention the six movies. claimed to have thought about it behind closed doors at home, and was so angry that his father Wang Tianlin almost had a stroke.

Another half a month passed. When the rumors finally passed, he barely cheered up under Wang Tianlin's scolding and returned to the Time and Space Film Studio.

Calling Lin Jing, Rao is face is not ordinarily thick, and he is also weak and ashamed. After all, after filming "Happy Ghost", Lin Jing said that he hoped that he would cherish his reputation and not make a film for the sake of making a film, which ruined his reputation.

He now finally realized why it was so hard to build a reputation and so easy to fall.

After the phone rang, Lin Jing returned to the film studio.

"Want to keep making movies? It's not that it doesn't work. She was clear about Wang Jing's intentions.

"I promise that I will use the greatest strength and the most effort to refine the ......" As soon as he heard that there seemed to be hope, Wang Jing hurriedly patted his chest to make a guarantee and swore an oath.

Wang Jing's talent is there, especially in comedy movies, so Lin Jing doesn't want to see him sink and be buried like this.

"It's a script outline for a series of films." Lin Jing took out a text jiàn folder, which she wrote in order to relax in addition to learning to write books.

She doesn't know when even writing scripts has become an activity to regulate her life.

"Zombie Dao Leader?" Wang Jing was puzzled, judging from the words, he immediately thought of a phantom film "People Are Scary" released in December last year, and "People Are Scary Ghosts", which is still being filmed recently.

"People Are Scary" and "People Are Scary" are both produced by Hong Jiaban, and the word-of-mouth box office of "People Are Scary" is not bad.

"Well, it's a series of phantom films." Lin Jing nodded and said.

"Series, doesn't that mean?" Wang Jing was overjoyed, he didn't expect to be able to keep the dark clouds and see the moon open, and he was willing to come to the bitter end, and the company did not give up on itself, but wanted to reuse itself.

"That's right, I'm going to make it into a series and make it every year, two or years."

Lin Jing remembers reading a very good infinite stream novel, the author creatively combined multiple zombie films to create a relatively plump but unique zombie era of the Republic of China.

This zombie era of the Republic of China has a grand background and wonderful content.

Lin Jing intends to use this volume of this novel as the basis to adapt a series of movie scripts, rather than a simple "Mr. Zombie" or "Uncle Zombie". After all, there are a lot of things that can be written about the theme of zombies and phantoms in the Republic of China.

Of course, some people may think that it is easy to follow the trend and shoot this subject badly. Shoot a series, and then shoot it is likely that there will be nothing to shoot at all.

Just like some people think that Hong Kong films are in decline because Hong Kong movies like to follow the trend and plagiarize.

Once a subject becomes popular, it will swarm up until it is smashed and smashed.

For example, "Mr. Zombie" came out and caused a sensation in Hong Kong, which set off a boom in zombie films, but more than 1o follow-up works appeared in just one year.

And Lin Jing feels that following the trend is unavoidable, unless you don't shoot. Since you can't avoid following the trend, you can't stop shooting because you are afraid of following the trend, just like people can't waste food because of choking.

In fact, it is normal for the film industry to follow the trend, even in Hollywood. The interests are moving. There's no reason you ate meat, I can't drink soup.

But why is it that as far as zombie movies are concerned, there are hundreds of followers. But only "Mr. Zombie" is considered the pinnacle and is a classic?

One of the reasons is, of course, because "Mr. Zombie" is the "founding ancestor", but Lin Jing believes that the most important thing is that "Mr. Zombie" is very careful in making zuò.

"Mr. Zombie" took more than four months to shoot in just one month, and in terms of cost, it was increased from 45o to 85 million.

What needs to be known is that there are no big-name actors in "Mr. Zombie". Most of the funds were used for the filming of the movie. 850 million, which looks like a medium investment from the numbers. But in fact, compared with those movies with large investments, in terms of shooting funds, they are not far behind.

With the efficiency of Hong Kong films, you can make a movie in a month. Even under the impetuous and noisy atmosphere that can make a movie in more than ten days. Among those popular works, which film company and director would spend so much time and so much investment to make a "rudimentary" comedy, phantom action movie?

In fact, after the filming of this movie is completed, even the bosses He Guanchang and Hong Xinbao have no confidence in this movie, and even expect that this film will sell 6oo at most, ready to lose 2oo yuan!

And director Liu Guanwei is even more afraid that his directorial career will end.

But the fact did not unfold as they expected, but responded to the sentence that planting melons and getting melons and planting beans and getting beans, and high investment obtained a bumper harvest.

So. It's the good that makes "Mr. Zombie" stand out. The real reason why it has become a classic, and has the reputation of "King of the Supernatural".

Now, let Lin Jing's film company produce this series of films, firstly, she has a stable source of funds, and she is not afraid of running out of money, and secondly, she has countless supernatural materials in her head, and she doesn't have to worry about having nothing to shoot, so she is not afraid to follow the trend.

As long as you shoot it with your heart, it will definitely become a classic series of movies.

As a result, Time and Space Film Studio has two series of films: "Happy Ghost" and "Zombie Chief".

And even if you think about it in the long run, "Zombie Dao Chief" can't be filmed for a few years, Lin Jing is sure to change it and move to a new phantom series of movies, such as "Ghost Blows the Lamp".

Of course, with the current computer technology, it is not possible to shoot "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" in its original form. But what does it matter, it will be a long time before "Ghost Blows the Lantern" comes out.

"The outline is handed over to you, you take it back and work with your colleagues in the screenwriting department to write the script."

The screenwriting department of Time and Space Film Studio has taken shape, because Lin Jing's attention to screenwriting has become the largest screenwriting department and the most screenwriter among Hong Kong's film production companies in just over a year. And among the screenwriters, there is no shortage of masters like Liu Zhenwei. Even Wang Jing himself is a screenwriter and has a lot of experience in designing "bridges".

Lin Jing believes that with the ability of Wang Jing, Liu Zhenwei and others, they should be able to write creative and good scripts.

And Wang Jing's directing ability is enough for filming "Zombie Daochang", after all, "Zombie Daochang" has no big scenes, and there are no complicated directing skills. In fact, he has made so many bad movies after filming "Happy Ghost", and it is not without gains, at least the director has a lot of experience, and it is not without a little benefit.

"That's fine." With a series of movies in his hands, Wang Jing was immediately overjoyed, and when he saw his teeth, he replied, "I must strive to concoct the script in the shortest possible time." ”

Unexpectedly, Wang Jing was happy to see the hunting, and his original form was suddenly revealed under the great joy, Lin Jing raised his eyebrows: "What is the shortest time?" ”

"I will definitely try to write the best script." Noticing Lin Jing's expression, Wang Jing immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, sweated profusely, and hurriedly remedied.

"One thing to remember, don't be shoddy. I'd rather be slow and keep improving, I don't want to see a vulgar bad movie when the time comes. ”

"Definitely, definitely!" (To be continued......)
