Chapter 22: Building the Crew
"Uncle Zeng, I'm not taking this book, this book can be given to Wang Jing just now. However, you make it clear to him that even if we cooperate, the profits will be divided equally between the two sides."
After Sun Ziming finished speaking, he found a script from under the coffee table, this is what he wanted to shoot.
Uncle Zeng watched it for half an hour, enjoying himself while watching, and couldn't help but laugh after the most unbearable. After reading the script, Uncle Zeng found that there were still two or three scripts under the coffee table, and then looked at the ones at hand and on the coffee table, and suddenly his face sank.
"Ziming, don't you know that there is a safe in the study of Ludao?"
"I don't know what to do."
Sun Ziming really didn't know that in the apartment provided by Warner, in addition to living facilities, he was also equipped with a safe.
Uncle Zeng picked up all the scripts, took the two of them back to the study, and opened the cabinet under the bookcase, revealing the safe inside.
"In the future, these things will be put in here. Ajuan, you have to supervise him! ”
"Oh".
Seeing Uncle Zeng away, Juanzi smiled on her face, and finally earned the 30,000 yuan back, and pounced on Sun Ziming's back.
"Brother Ziming, you are so amazing!"
Holding the upright little buttocks with his hand, he patted it with amazing elasticity, coupled with the soft and firm touch on his back, Sun Ziming couldn't help but feel like a cat's paw scratching in his heart.
"Come down, how old are they?"
"I don't".
Juanzi hugged her tighter, and Sun Ziming let a warm breath on her neck make her unsettled, and quickly hugged her backhand.
"Go cook something, I'll try to draw it all in the evening, and I'll negotiate with that fat man tomorrow."
"Hey".
When it comes to making money, Juanzi is no longer obsessed, and hurries to the kitchen to make supper.
Early the next morning, Uncle Zeng came with Wang Jing, and Juanzi also wanted to see them negotiate, so he asked Sun Ziming to coax him to go out to buy vegetables. This is a perverted film, she better not listen to it, let alone watch it!
"Ziming, this is not fair. If I pay 500,000 yuan, you will publish a script, and the money you make will be divided in half? ”
"You're sure this film will cost at least half a million, right?"
Wang Jing went through it again in his heart, this film does have at least 500,000 yuan, and this must not 'cut' too much halfway, otherwise 600,000 yuan will not be able to fight!
"Okay, you pay 300,000, and I'll pay the rest. Half profit for one person, that's fair, right? ”
"Then no problem!"
The grandson was happy, and when Uncle Zeng saw his smile, he knew that this fat man was about to fall into the pit.
"Brother Jing, now I'll teach you how to use 300,000 to make a film of 500,000."
Actress? Do you still have acting skills? No, as long as you have a pure appearance, you can invite one from TVB for up to 30,000.
"Impossible, to show dew, to show horror, who do you think you are?"
"Cut, do you know what is a misplaced shooting?"
Sun Ziming made a comparison on the table, and he really didn't need the actress to be naked, just use a stand-in with a similar figure.
"What about acting? Do you really think those young ladies can act? ”
This one is simpler, as long as they perform in their true colors, expressions? Do drunk people want expressions? When it's time to make an expression, just put a snake in front of her!
"Well, that's good! I like it! Ziming, why do you have such a long head? ”
Wang Jing asked him to remind him like this, and suddenly realized, why do you need four actresses? As long as there is an actress and an actor, plus a few nightclub ladies, the salary will not exceed 100,000 yuan at most, no wonder this kid is so confident that he can control the budget at 300,000!
The two discussed the filming techniques and other things again, and Wang Jing happily agreed to pay for him, Sun Ziming to write the script, and the two sides to share the profits equally.
When Juanzi came back from buying vegetables, the two guests left, leaving only Sun Ziming to write in the study.
"Brother Ziming, I think you should write the script yourself or shoot it yourself. Isn't it cost-effective to let someone else take pictures? ”
Shoot it yourself? Sun Ziming really didn't have the confidence to make such a perverted film. Yesterday, Hu Juan was forced to have no choice, so she took out this chicken script and prepared to sell it to a small film company to earn back the 30,000 Hong Kong dollars.
"Okay, I can write a script in one night, but it takes at least a month to make a movie, and I write my own script, so I have to exhaust myself to death?"
Sun Ziming misinterpreted it like this, Hu Juan tilted her head and thought, it is indeed such a truth.
In fact, Sun Ziming is still wrong, the film that he thinks is chicken ribs has established the status of Wang Jing and his commercial director, and also pushed them both to the throne of restricted film masters, of course, this is all a later story.
After lunch, Sun Ziming received a call from Wang Jing, saying that the actor he was looking for had been found and asked him to come over. Sun Ziming ignored Juanzi's nonsense and resolutely refused to let her follow, this movie is so perverted, how can she be allowed to participate?
"Hurry up to the recording studio and be obedient!"
"Oh".
Sun Ziming rushed to a café on Dunli Road, and when he saw the actor Wang Jing was looking for, he couldn't help but admire his eyesight. The woman is Liu Jialing, and now she still has a pure face, how can she have the slightest smell of wind and dust. The male is Wu Yijiang, with a strong figure, revealing an evil spirit when he laughs, and he looks fierce when he pulls his face, and he really deserves to be a natural villain supporting role.
There was also an ordinary-looking young man next to him, maybe Wang Jing's assistant or something, Sun Ziming didn't care much about it, and as soon as he sat down, he talked to Wang Jing about cooperation with the two actors.
"What?"
As soon as they heard that they were going to play ****, the faces of the two actors turned white, although they are not big stars at present, but which actor doesn't have a star dream in his heart? Especially Liu Jialing, she has mixed up with TVB's leading Xiaohuadan, if Wang Jing doesn't have a good father and happens to be in charge of their artists, she will definitely turn her face on the spot.
Wang Jing has no problem with this, and now Hong Kong uses those ugly actresses to make Fengyue films (porn films), and even some are prostitutes at all, young and beautiful, and they will not accept this kind of film at all. That is, Liu Jialing is a mainland girl, so he dared to call over, and if he wanted to be replaced by other local actresses in Taiwan, he didn't dare to beat other people's ideas at all.
Besides, he also wants to weigh Sun Ziming's weight to see if this posterior boy (young man) is really as Zeng Xiang said, he is comfortable and confident in everything.
"Jialing, let's talk about you first."
Sun Ziming first affirmed that she doesn't have to act ****, the naked part will use a stand-in, and she only needs to act in literary dramas.
When Liu Jialing heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief. I am from the mainland, don't look at being able to play a female No. 3 or something in the stage now, if he offends this dead fat man, as long as he crooks his mouth, it is estimated that he will be the female No. 4 and the female No. 5 in the future.
"Yijiang, let's talk about you, it doesn't matter if you don't take this film. I promise that Fat Wang will not embarrass you, I just say what I think, if you think it makes sense, think about it."
Wu Yijiang's image is impossible to receive a positive role in Hong Kong now, let alone be the leading actor in mainstream films. At this point, Sun Ziming broke it a little, and Wu Yijiang's face was gloomy.
"What then? If you are still the same as you were and stick to those things, you will be a little actor for the rest of your life, and you can only play supporting roles or play tricks."
Sun Ziming's words were a little ugly, but they also hit Wu Yijiang's heart word by word. has been debuting for a few years, and the most scenes are the TV series "French Open Tenderness", and he still plays the villain.
"In that case, why don't you think differently? Who said that if you can't be a big hero, you can't be a big star? You are going to play a bad guy and perform famously, you are a big star, and the salary is given by the boss, not by the fans! ”
Oh, yes? Wu Yijiang's heart is alive, and the positive characters themselves are not counted on, so it is better to be bad to the end. As long as you are famous for playing a bad guy, are you afraid that no one will invite you? Are you afraid that no one will pay you well?
Wang Jing and the young man next to him were stunned, they usually persuaded actors that they were not like this, either they didn't have to talk about their feelings with face, or they talked about money, how could this be? Every word is for the other party, no matter what aspect you understand, it is indeed planning the future of the other party.
"Jialing, let's move on to your business."
"Please speak".
Liu Jialing also shocked Sun Ziming, and in two or three sentences, she planned a good future for her colleague, and she also wanted to listen to other people's suggestions.
"Although you are now a popular flower in TVB, you don't mix well in the station, and you don't like other actresses, right? It's all female No. 3 and No. 4, right? ”
Liu Jialing nodded, if she was also Chen Yulian and them, Wang Fatzi would not look for herself to act in Fengyue films.
"I wonder if you read the script carefully? That's right, this is a Fengyue film, and it is a perverted Fengyue film. But the role you are going to play is the only positive role in the whole film. As long as you can perform that kind of despair and helplessness, you will definitely be able to leave a very deep impression on the audience, which is not better than your hard work in TVB? Don't think that the director will go to watch TV series, it's all for ordinary people. Real directors will only pay attention to the big screen, and there is really no way to pick people among the TV drama actors! ”
Sun Ziming stopped, took a sip of coffee, gave the other party a little time to think about it, and only added a sentence later.
"Actors don't have much youth to waste, and actresses are even more so."
Liu Jialing was also shaken, the fact is indeed as Sun Ziming said, she has never played the second female lead, let alone the female number one. TV actors want to be movie actors, that's for sure, only movies are art, and they can get high salaries! The director can't find a suitable actor, and if he wants to pick people from the TV actors, he must first pick those who are famous, and the female No. 3 ghost like himself will notice. Director Sun is right, how precious is a woman's youth, it's better to take over this scene than to stay up in TVB, anyway, you don't have to act ****!
After some persuasion by Sun Ziming, the two actors happily signed the agreement, and one of them took half of the salary of 30,000 Hong Kong dollars (the salary in 87 was indeed only so high, and a second-tier star like Liu Dehua was only a hundred thousand yuan).
"Brother Jing, I've taken care of your business, it's time to talk about our business, right?"
