See the fastest updates
Chapter 368 "People Are Embarrassed to Lose Their Journey to Thailand". "Old Boy" officially started filming on May 24, and the planned filming time is 2 months, and then it will be completed in August 2010, and it will be officially released on November 21 this year.
Luo Mo himself will strictly grasp the quality of this movie, but he himself will not appear in the crew often.
With an investment of five million, coupled with the background and shooting plan of this movie, it is actually possible to make a well-made "Old Boy".
When "Old Boy" officially started filming, Luo Mo also began to think about more issues.
He was thinking about his previous idea...... It's a pity that the plan is a little too crazy.
He knew that he couldn't just work under the guidance of the mobile hard drive, after all, the things in the mobile hard drive illustrate the future situation, but those futures, can only disappear in 2015, and many of the things in it are from 2015, but there will be plans around 2013, therefore, strictly speaking, Luo Mo's time can only be before 2013......
In this case, Luo Mo will need to shoot his own movie one day.
However, he never imagined that the first movie he chose to shoot would be like that......
It's crazy to think about.
After thinking about it for a long time, Luo Mo contacted Xu Zheng directly, and after Xu Zheng picked up the phone, Luo Mo said: "Brother Xu, do you remember a movie plan I once told you?" ”
Xu Zheng was a little vague, and after thinking about it for a while, he remembered something about that movie a little, after all, Luo Mo revealed too little to him. After a while, Xu Zheng said on the other end of the phone: "I remember......" and he said with a little calm and concern: "Is Director Luo going to start that plan?" ”
Luo Mo smiled slightly on the other end of the phone: "Yes, that's it, I'm just asking if you're interested...... I'm going to call Bao Qiang and Huang Bo to carry out this movie plan together...... Filming will likely start as soon as possible. ”
After hearing Luo Mo's words, Xu Zheng's heart was also very happy, Luo Mo is now the spokesperson of high box office and big opportunity! Everyone wants to appear in Luo Mo's movie once and cooperate with Luo Mo once.
Luo Mo's movies can even make Zhang Mengya, a young actor who has no foundation at the beginning, and she is a movie star who is very well-known in the world, so it is even easier for him to become popular with others. Xu Zheng has also gained great international popularity after a "hangover", and now he is also eager to cooperate with Luo Mo again.
"Of course, I'd love to." Xu Zheng said.
"Okay, I'll let a special person talk to your economist about specific things, this movie will start shooting quickly, you have to be ready."
"I know!"
After that, Luo Mo asked Li Xiuying to help find Huang Bo, Huang Bo was born with a sense of laughter, many people want to laugh when they see him, and in the past two years, Huang Bo has also relied on his own efforts and luck to gain a firm foothold in the film and television industry step by step, although he is still not handsome, although he is still not high, but his salary is increasing year by year.
Next is Wang Baoqiang, Wang Baoqiang, Luo Mo looked for him directly.
Wang Baoqiang is also an actor Luo Mo is very familiar with, but he hasn't been in contact with him for a while, and the two have been in trouble together since "Soldier Assault", especially the mutual support in the months-long difficult filming of "Soldier Assault", which made the friendship between the two more and more profound.
It's a pity that in the past few years, they have their own careers, and they have gradually lost some contact.
Wang Baoqiang became popular after "Soldier Assault", and then filmed some TV series with popular ratings such as "My Brother is Shunyo", and his popularity is also higher. The release of "People in Embarrassment" also made Wang Baoqiang more popular, and now he is filming some literary films to broaden his acting path.
And Luo Mo's achievements naturally need not be said......
The two are now reconnected, and their respective identities are no longer the time to shoot "Soldier Assault" and drink clumsily in front of the moon on a cold night. However, at that time, Wang Baoqiang had already starred in movies, and his popularity was hundreds of times higher than Luo Mo's, and now, Luo Mo has a net worth of more than 2 billion and has become one of the hottest stars in the Chinese entertainment industry.
"Luo Mo?" Wang Baoqiang shouted Luo Mo's name a little strangely.
Wang Baoqiang had not been in contact with Luo Mo for a long time, and when he heard his name again, he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart.
"Baoqiang, what are you busy with?" Luo Mo naturally couldn't ask him something like that directly, but said first: "It's been a long time." ”
"yes, long time no see. Director Luo Da can still think of me. Wang Baoqiang joked.
"Of course I can remember...... Isn't that what I'm looking for? That's the case, I plan to make a movie, the second part of "People in Embarrassment", we have bought the copyright, and now we plan to restart filming, inviting you, Xu Zheng, and Huang Bo to star. Luo Mo also skipped the agent and asked Wang Baoqiang directly.
In fact, it should be impossible for him to disagree, but it is always a good thing to make a phone call to confirm.
"That's a good thing." Wang Baoqiang said: "However...... ...... is the director of the movie? ”
"I'll be the director." Luo Mo said: "But I don't play a role myself, I just direct." ”
Hearing that Luo Mo was the director, Wang Baoqiang was full of confidence all of a sudden.
After all, his achievements are really there, comedy films, a "hangover" has made him famous in the entire world, and now he directs comedy themes, which is very reassuring anyway.
Wang Baoqiang has no reason not to participate in the filming of this film.
On the contrary, he was also very grateful to Luo Mo for being able to think of him, and think of him shooting his own kind of movie that basically made a fire.
Of course, he also knew in his heart that the movie "People in Embarrassment" actually has a good reputation and a good box office, and if everyone sees the second part, they don't want Wang Baoqiang to leave. Wang Baoqiang has shown his talent in comedy since the time of "No Thieves in the World", and it is not inappropriate to let him play comedy roles now.
"Thank you, thank you, you can think of me...... Of course I agree. ”
"Then it's decided! The specific salary and script will be discussed with your agent by a special person. Luo Mo said.
After getting Wang Baoqiang, Luo Mo then got Huang Bo, just as Luo Mo thought, Huang Bo was also very happy to join Luo Mo's crew. At this moment, "People Are Embarrassed in Thailand" has also gathered the three major comedy stars of Wang Baoqiang, Xu Zheng, and Huang Bo.
In the past two years, there has gradually been a boom in some celebrities going back to make TV series, Huang Bo also took over TV series such as "Three Brothers in the Line of Fire" and "Militia Ge Erdan", and even the super goddess Gao Yuanyuan filmed "Let's Get Married" (digression, I haven't watched us get married, because the thought of the goddess marrying Huang Haibo in it makes me feel very sad). This is because the salaries of TV drama actors have become higher and higher in the past two years, and it has even become the main expenditure invested in TV dramas.
Huang Bo even hyped up the sky-high price of 1 million per episode in later generations, and after that TV series, his investment alone would cost tens of millions...... Compared with movie actors who have basically not risen sharply on the whole, TV series actors have gone from 50,000 or 60,000 yuan per episode to hundreds of thousands, but it only took seven or eight years.
These prices are inflated.
However, now Luo Mo's movies make Huang Bo still want to return to the film industry, Luo Mo's movies, that is the king!
Luo Mo's studio soon announced the work plan of "People Are Embarrassed in Thailand".
Seeing such a work plan, everyone outside was very surprised.
They are all waiting for Luo Mo's new movie to be released, and they are also looking forward to him being able to make another movie like "Inception", which is impeccable in terms of plot and everything. I didn't expect him to return to comedy...... However, his return to comedy is also worth looking forward to, after all, the "Hangover" he filmed at the beginning set off a shocking box office around the world.
It's just that everyone didn't expect that Luo Mo would choose to shoot the second movie, and it was also the second part of "People in Embarrassment".
Luo Mo once said that there would be a second part of "The Hangover", but he didn't expect that now he is filming the second part of "People in Embarrassment".
Luo Mo's thoughts are actually a little unpredictable for everyone...... And people in the industry are actually even more unpredictable about Luo Mo's ideas - unlike "The Hangover" and "Inception", "People Are Embarrassed in Thailand" has not launched any publicity abroad!
According to their ideas, Luo Mo's name is as popular as his movies in the world, and his new movie will definitely have a lot of attention abroad, originally this should be a good time to take the opportunity to make money in the foreign market, but he doesn't seem to have ambitions for the foreign market now?
In recent years, Luo Mo, the most influential Chinese director in China, seems to have no ambitions for foreign markets?
What the hell is he trying to do?
The big guys think it's very strange.
In fact, Luo Mo's approach didn't have much to figure out...... First of all, "People Are Embarrassed in Thailand" is a movie that only Chinese will find funny...... He wanted to use the film to continue his domestic box office myth, but did not have the confidence to make money in foreign markets.
A movie like "Thai Embarrassment" will cost tens of thousands of dollars at the box office when it is released abroad, because the word Luo Mo may be able to earn millions or even tens of millions of dollars at the box office in North America, but Americans will begin to lose confidence in the word Luo Mo because of this movie, which is completely worth the loss.
Secondly, Luo Mo's influence in "Inception", especially after "Time Magazine", is too great in the world, and everyone's expectations for him are too high. Expectations that are too high often lead to a realistic skinny situation...... Luo Mo didn't want everyone to have a sense of gap between expectations and reality.
He wants to cool down for a year or two before attacking the North American market, when everyone's expectations for him will not be at the peak, but he will still be able to go to the cinema and watch movies.
With such a calculation, he planned to shoot "Thai Embarrassment" and did not have the intention of letting the film be released abroad.
However, everyone's expectations for "Tai Lu" in Chinese mainland are also unprecedentedly strong, but unfortunately Luo Mo does not participate in the performance himself, which makes everyone a little regretful, but Luo Mo's current situation will not joke about neurological problems.
It's just that although Luo Mo is also recuperating and taking medicine, his mood will always suddenly become very irritable and angry.
An impulse rose to its highest value after he saw a recent piece of international news.
