The location scene of "No Thieves in the World" in Gannan was originally planned to be a 20-day cycle, but it was completed two days ahead of schedule, and the rest of the film had to be filmed in Beijing.

The crew built a studio of 8,000 square meters in a science and technology park in Xiaotangshan, and the rental fee for the light field was nearly one million. The interior is mainly four carriages, including soft sleepers, hard sleepers, dining cars and hard seats, which are about 40 meters long, so it cost millions more.

This train is far more exquisite than the green car in reality, and Feng Xiaogang also gave it a forcibly humorous name, called "Making a Number Out of Nothing".

Since the actor is about to go to Cannes, at least a month off, the roles of other people will be unified to the premise.

Zhou Xun began to go back and forth between the two crews, Uncle Ge's strength on the plateau has not eased up, and he has to put in heavy work, and even the supporting roles such as Fan Wei and Liao Fan have to be on call at any time, which is very hard.

Chu Qing got off the plane on April 28, didn't bother to go home, and ran directly to the studio. He thought that there were messy things waiting for him, but he didn't expect that Fan Xiaoye would handle it properly by himself.

First up is the Cannes Film Festival, which will open on May 12, and "On the Road" has been shortlisted for the Un Certain Regard section.

As a judge, he had to set off at the beginning of the month, but Tang Wei and Wu Xiubo had to delay it for more than ten days. Wu Xiubo doesn't care, but Tang Wei is his artist, and he naturally has to pack it well when he participates in the international film festival for the first time.

The girl didn't make much money, and she couldn't even afford a decent dress. Fan Xiaoye quietly brought two sets, as well as matching jewelry, matching style and size.

Based on this alone, Chu Qing is quite pleased, with the unique style of a boss.

In addition to this, there is also the filming of "The Two of Us".

Ma Liwen found a small village on the outskirts of the capital, all of which are decades old buildings, which match the description in the script. The film has been on for more than a week, and the progress is quite smooth. Jin Yaqin and Wang Luodan's performances were also excellent.

But just a few days ago, it was raining there, and the courtyard was slippery, and the old lady accidentally fell and almost didn't get up. At that time, Ma Liwen was frightened, and hurriedly sent him to the hospital and called Fan Xiaoye again.

After the girl got the news, she immediately asked a friend for help, took a film for inspection, and tossed for a while. Fortunately, Jin Yaqin was only slightly bruised. I prescribed a bunch of medicines, and rested at home for three days, and there was no major problem.

After all, at such an age, if something happens to the crew, there must be an attitude here.

And the girl will also be a person, and from time to time she will go to someone's house to ask for warmth, and the gifts she brings are piled up every time, which makes the old lady's children very embarrassed.

Chu Qing didn't know about these, and only after he came back did he hear from his daughter-in-law. He was surprised at the same time. I can't help but be very emotional, this little girl can also hold up a piece of the sky.

Of course, that's not all.

At this time, inside the office. He was looking at a financial statement. Fan Xiaoye was crooked on the sofa, tinkering with his newly bought mobile phone.

"France, England, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands...... Hey, there are so many box offices in the Netherlands, and it's not bad in Japan......"

He muttered as he watched. On the surface, he was calm, but in fact, he was already excited in his heart.

After nearly a year of operation and distribution, the proceeds of the three films "Blind Well", "Incense" and "Uniform" have finally arrived. A total of 5.3 million US dollars, or more than 40 million yuan.

These profits include regional buyouts, regional box office dividends, TV station rights and DVD distribution dividends. "Blind Well" naturally accounted for a large share, carrying more than two-thirds, and those two were a fraction at best.

After deducting the taxes and the share given to Li Yang, the final amount credited by the studio was 36.85 million.

Gee!

This is the best money made by the two of them since their debut, and I am very excited just by looking at the long list of numbers.

"Not bad! Not bad! It's a family. ”

Chu Qing flipped back and forth three times, feeling very fulfilled from head to toe, and said with a smile: "Have a good meal tonight." ”

"Look at your little bit of interest!"

Fan Xiaoye pursed his lips, expressing great contempt.

"Hey, when you called me, you weren't even better than me!"

He went over and squeezed the sofa, the girl straightened her waist, gave up her position, and pressed on her husband again, shook her mobile phone and said, "This is very good, the touch screen, it's a special electricity." ”

"Motorola!"

He took a look, clicked twice, and returned it, saying, "I still love Nokia." ”

"I know, that's why I didn't buy it for you." She said it rightly.

“……”

Chu Qing was speechless, hugged his daughter-in-law, and ravaged him for a long time before he said: "Hey, Ning Hao and Diao Yinan over there, do you have to express it?" ”

"When you think about it, the cucumber dishes are cold!"

Fan Xiaoye's face was flushed, and he gasped slightly: "I gave 300,000 red envelopes by myself, and I originally wanted to give 500,000, but then I thought about it, these two people didn't sell much money, so they couldn't do it." ”

"300,000 is okay, and the contract didn't write dividends at the beginning. What's more, we didn't ask for a penny for the prize money of those two film festivals, which is interesting enough. ”

"Well, that's true."

She nodded, picked up her mobile phone again and started to sweep mines, Chu Qing hugged her daughter-in-law and watched her play minesweeping.

These two are boring!

", it's dead!"

Seeing that there were still more than a dozen squares left, the girl suddenly twitched a corner of her brain, and it was all wiped out in an instant.

"Don't swear!" He pinched his daughter-in-law's face.

"It's not fun! It's not fun! ”

She threw away her mobile phone, humming and chirping, looking like her life was boring. After a long while, she stopped by herself, turned over and grabbed her husband's chest, and said, "Hey, when this is over, let's go out to play?" ”

Chu Qing was stunned and asked, "How did you think of this?" ”

"You didn't write it for me!"

Master Fan glanced at him and said, "I have to go sooner or later, I will first postpone all the work in the second half of the year, lest you turn over the old accounts in the future!" ”

"Shh

He was very upset and said, "It's as if I'm begging you...... Where are we going? ”

"France? Italy? Germany? Japan? Netherlands? She laughed.

"You're deliberate, can you pick someone you haven't been to?"

"Thailand?"

"It's too hot!"

"Britain?"

"The rice is not delicious!"

"What about South Korea?"

"What's there to do in Korea?"

"Look at the thighs!"

…………

The news that "Blind Well" is competing overseas, although the two of them deliberately keep a low profile, is still spreading in the circle.

Not only the media, peers and film and television companies, but also the Film Bureau have expressed considerable concern.

Because the entire Greater China region is counted, if you talk about the film's overseas box office performance, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is undoubtedly the first, swiping more than 200 million US dollars.

The second is "Hero", which reached more than 170 million US dollars, that is, 1.3 billion yuan. Further down, there is "Shaolin Football" and "In the Mood for Love", the gap is huge, less than $50 million.

These can be understood, big directors, big stars, big productions, plus crazy commercial publicity, it is appropriate to achieve results.

But what's the deal with "The Blind Well"?

The cost will be two million, rookie directors, rookie actors, and all kinds of simplicity, all kinds of original ecology. With Chu Qing's silver bear and a down-and-out reputation for movie-watching, the film was forced to reach the historical list.

Fortunately, Hua Yi is envious, jealous and hateful, such an input-output ratio of the bunker is simply inhumane.

However, even if there was a strong reaction from all sides, it did not have much impact on society. One is that the two of them don't want to publicize and turned down all interview invitations, and the other is that the film bureau is very embarrassed.

"Blind Well" is a banned film, when Li Yang returned from Berlin, in order to let the film pass the review, it can be said that he begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother, but all of them were passed.

Today, the studio has become one of the country's top trade exporters with several outstanding independent films such as "This Summer", "Blind Well" and "Incense", and is even more competitive and internationally recognized than those large companies.

In terms of policy, the film bureau is welcome and should also give support. But on the political zhì, because of Chu Qing's habit of wandering around the edge, ouch, the leaders are so annoying.

Therefore, it creates a particularly difficult situation, I want to publicize, I am afraid that I will step on the line, I don't publicize, and there is no other typical, and in the end I can only dry and cold.

It was in this kind of painful situation that on May 1, Chu Qing said goodbye to Fan Xiaoye and took Cheng Ying to Cannes.

(There's two chapters tomorrow, and on average it's one chapter a day, and by and large, uh, I'm still disciplined.) (To be continued......)
