Chapter 597: Private Talk

At the end of September, the Vancouver Film Festival closes. Weng Shouming's "Golden Splendor" was sent to the exhibition, and shared the top award - the Dragon and Tiger Award with another domestic independent film "Dog Barking in the Afternoon".

The bonus is 10,000 US dollars, and the company gave it all to Weng Shouming, purely as a dividend. The investment in this film is about 2 million, and it is not a problem to return to the capital, and if it sells well, it will make a small profit.

So far, the six films that the company shot last year, except for "Crime and Punishment", have all been unveiled.

Among them, "Lifted from the Dust" is a small loss, "The Teeth of Love" may be a small loss, "Blind Mountain" must make a big profit, "Night Train" is estimated to make a small profit, and "Crime and Punishment" has the smallest investment, because it is only in the later stage, and the market for documentaries has always been very stable, and the income should be OK.

From a commercial point of view, it is not as good as "The Two of Us" and "Crazy Stone" the year before last, but the company has single-handedly held up one-third of the literary film industry, which is enough to brush up a large amount of prestige.

So it's not a loss or not, it's up to you to weigh it.

Besides, this year, there are only two films, "Li Mi's Conjecture" and "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl", both of which have a lot of investment, and they are not the so-called "smearing China" theme that Europe loves.

Not to mention Cheng Ying and others, even Chu Qing doesn't have that much confidence that he can make money.

Nowadays, the production cost is soaring, the demand for domestic literary films overseas is gradually decreasing, and there are fewer and fewer filmmakers who are willing to shoot in a down-to-earth manner...... If you are like the previous kind of "taking a million plays to make a profit of 20 million", you will inevitably not be able to eat it.

The two of them realized this and are trying to transform, insisting on investment in literary and artistic films, while moving closer to mainstream commercial films, such as "Painted Skin".

If a film and television company wants to become a giant in the industry, connections, funds, stars, blockbusters, and direct directors are all indispensable.

The two of them are not short of money and potential, they are big names themselves, and the director of the lineage also has a growing Ning Hao. If "Painted Skin" is a box office hit again, it will properly establish its status in the rivers and lakes.

…………

"You don't have to say much, and I don't want to explain."

Xiangshan Film and Television City, in an antique courtyard, Zhao Liying looked at Chen Xiao and Liu Shishi with a frosty face, and the two opposite were full of anger and disbelief.

"From now on, we have nothing to do with each other!"

She snapped her long sleeves, and the moment she turned around, the camera gave a big close-up: the face was clearly painful.

"Click! Nice ...... Raider"

Li Huizhu praised twice, and said, "Rest for ten minutes!" ”

This scene is about Xiaoxue learning the truth about mending the sky. He had to sacrifice himself to help Yuwen Tuo, not hesitating to be misunderstood by his two friends. Zhao Baozi has not reached the stage of hierarchical acting, but the specific expression is very transparent and infectious.

is a rookie, and it is not easy to be praised by Li Huizhu for his "infectiousness".

It is said that "Xuanyuan Sword" has been on for two months, and it has been going very smoothly. Baozi was going to "Painted Skin", so the director concentrated on filming her scenes, and the little girl worked hard enough. became the most prominent figure in the crew for a while.

In contrast, Liu Shishi's literary drama is slightly weaker, but there is martial arts to remedy it, and Chen Xiao is decent. Huang Xuan's excellent achievement, Qiu En is slightly routine, but Yan * Kuan is a surprise, and people have their own ghostly and crazy attributes. Playing Yuwen Tuo is handy.

Today is cloudy, three young people are putting on their coats and huddled together and chattering. I saw Liu Dudu hugging his girlfriend. Reluctantly: "Baozi, you will leave in a few days, I will miss you!" ”

"Well, I'll miss you too!" Zhao Liying was even more exaggerated, she was almost crying.

Chen Xiao sighed and couldn't help asking, "I've always been curious, aren't you two tired of being like this all day long?" ”

"Mother, you'll understand when you find your soulmate." Liu Dudu's face was serious.

"Uh-huh!"

Baozi also nodded, and said with a mending knife: "I think Brother Xuan is good, you two are quite suitable." ”

“……”

Thanks to Chen Xiao's good upbringing, otherwise a sip of salt soda would have killed them.

These three people are the same age, and they are very familiar with each other in a few days, he has a dignified, polite, and careful temperament, and is always straightforward, so they gave them a nickname, called Chen Niangniang.

Huang Xuan doesn't like to mix with the girl's family very much, and the relationship is not as close to them as possible, and he also has a nickname in private, called Huang Gonggong.

"Actually, I'm a little scared, playing against the teacher, how much pressure it is!"

And Zhao Liying glanced around, and gossiped nervously: "You also know that the soldier sister doesn't deal with that one, what should they do if they want to fight?" ”

"Can't they, they're going to turn their faces in public?" Chen Xiao was skeptical.

"How fresh! You don't know who you love when your temper comes up! ”

The more Bao Zi spoke, the more worried he became, and said worriedly: "If I really want to fight, I'll find a place to hide, alas, the gods fight, and mortals suffer." ”

"Oops, it's fine! The teacher must have to adjust, otherwise how to film, you see how he usually ...... Usual......"

Liu Du wanted to comfort him, but he didn't have confidence in it, who didn't know the family status of those two people?

“……”

The scene was also embarrassed for a moment, and after a pause, Chen Xiao ended with a sentence: "In short, you ask for a lot of blessings!" ”

……

Night, hotel.

Zhao Liying was already tired and weak, but she couldn't rest yet, and was leaning on the pillow to read the script of "Painted Skin". From the day she was selected, the pressure was mounting day by day.

Chu Qingyi! Zhou Xun! Xu Kee! This kind of cast is really crazy for a little girl.

Qingya is a big trick, and the scenes are trivial, as long as Pei Rong appears, she usually has to follow her. It's easy to get things done, but it's hard to be brilliant.

Baozi didn't have the slightest idea of stealing the limelight, he just hoped to come back alive.

"Squeak!"

The bathroom door was pushed open, and Master Liu came out wrapped in a bath towel, and poked his hair in front of the mirror to buzz. Baozi looked up, suddenly blinked, got out of bed, moved, and the thief leaned behind him, grabbed the bath towel and brushed it......

"it!"

She was confused and vomited blood, pointing at the other party and scolding: "You little slut! ”

"Hahaha!"

Liu Dudu got it in an instant, showing that set of white underwear, and said with a smile: "Just your little bun, you dare to fight wits and courage with me?" ”

"Cut!"

Zhao Liying snorted coldly, climbed back and continued to read the script.

After a while, Liu Dudu blew her hair, but squeezed onto her bed, and suddenly said, "Hey, have you found one thing?" ”

"What?"

"Chen Xiao is interesting to you!"

"Huh?"

Baozi was startled and hurriedly said: "Don't talk nonsense, I'll treat him as a buddy!" ”

"It's not far from ten, he looks at you differently."

"I, I don't think it's any different......" she panicked.

"That's because you are unresponsive, even Brother Xuan can see it! Hey, if he does confess to you, what are you going to do? ”

"I, I ......"

Zhao Liying snorted twice, and then fell silent, looking entangled and at a loss.

Seeing this, Master Liu just wanted to laugh a few words, but the other party opened his mouth and said, "If he really confesses to me, I will refuse...... I don't want to fall in love now, I don't want to be distracted, I just want to play my own drama well. ”

Yo!

She was stunned, this girl still understood, and looked at her girlfriend's sad face, and comforted: "Okay, okay, I'll just talk about it casually, maybe he forgot it after filming." ”

After the words fell, she took off her little vest, hugged the little bun with flesh, and said with a smile:

"Sleep!"

(Happy Chinese New Year, everyone!) (To be continued.) )
