Forty-two-year-old Wu Yusen is not tall and wears a straight suit, which can be seen to be specially worn for visiting. Although it has begun to top, it exudes the charm of a middle-aged man. People who have experienced the ups and downs of life are always more impressed than Pan Disheng, a teenager who relies on a famous brand.

The two warmly shook hands and sat down for tea. Li Yusen also looked at the young director, T-shirt, jeans, travel shoes, standing on the street lively college student.

"Brother Sen, are you a little disappointed? Isn't it a little, it's better to be famous than to meet, and it's better to miss than to meet? ”

Wu Yusen made the young man laugh, touched the half-bald head, and said happily: "This is almost the same for me, you are so tall and big, you look quite energetic, how can you be bald, fat and short like me." ”

Sun Tzu Ming listened to this self-deprecating remark, this is the real director, only with an open-minded heart can he pour his joys, sorrows and sorrows into the movie.

The two talked and laughed for a while, and Fa Ge handed the script on the coffee table to Sun Ziming, and chatted with Wu Yusen himself. Sun Ziming quickly flipped through it, it was the master's classic "Bloody Heroes".

"Brother Sen, this book is very good, as long as Brother Fa is willing to take it, there is no problem. Our company never restricts artists from taking on films from other companies, as long as you both negotiate it yourself. ”

Wu Yusen was a little embarrassed and said: "Our studio asked me to come to you to see if we can make a joint production."

Sun Ziming was stunned for a moment, and looked at this Fa Ge's mentor suspiciously. The cost of this film is at most 10 million, save a little money, and 8 million can be auctioned, can't the studio pay for this money? Fa Ge's market is a salary plus share, not the 8 million as the gossip magazine said. Besides, with this horse, how can Fa Ge have to give a friendship price!

After a while, Sun Ziming asked tentatively: "Your studio, do you want to cooperate with our company for a long time?" We provide cinema chains, and we also want to borrow our channels to distribute them to Japan and the mainland. ”

Wu Yusen's old face blushed and nodded. Xu Lao blamed himself for not coming to the door, because he took a fancy to Fa Ge's role as a bridge between the two sides, so he asked Wu Yusen to come to the front station.

Sun Ziming let out a sigh of relief, this is the first independent film company to take the initiative to seek cooperation, and hurriedly agreed: "No problem, as long as the script and director can meet the requirements of our company, we welcome any company to cooperate." Your studio is not a bad film company, so it's too late for us to welcome it! ”

The rest of the matter should be discussed by Uncle Zeng and Old Monster Xu, but Sun Ziming really wants to recommend someone to this master.

"Brother Sen, has the actor been decided?"

Wu Yusen scratched his forehead, which didn't have much hair, and said distressedly: "Li SIR (Li Xiuxian) agreed, it's hard to find an actress." Mrs. Shi (Mrs. Xu Nansheng) recommended Ye Qianwen, but I think her acting skills are immature, I want Liu Jialing from your company to play Jenny, but I am afraid that the budget is not enough. ”

"Brother Sen, what are you kidding, you give her a role to look down on her, just give her a little bit of salary, anyway, there are not many scenes."

Sun Ziming hehe, got up and called the goblin and said, "Ah Ling, hurry up and come to the company and find you a classic movie!" ”

A minute after the words were spoken, the goblin pushed the door open, and his little face flushed with excitement. It turned out that as soon as the goblin heard Yuan Mei's news, he came to the company and waited in the artist department, just to be able to play a role in this movie. This is Wu Yusen's movie, Sun Ziming mentioned to her in bed before, this is the only big director in Hong Kong who has the potential to break into Hollywood!

Sun Ziming leaned on the desk, pointed at the goblin and scolded with a smile: "Brother Sen, do you see, my subordinates are all this kind of characters, and they don't even knock on the door when there is a good thing." ”

Wu Yusen smiled: "It's nothing, we don't knock on the door in our studio, only Shi Tai's office is knocked." ”

After Liu Jialing thanked her, she read the script cursoryly, and said with a smile: "Brother Sen, this Wang Hai and Wang Dongyuan, how about letting Zhang Yaoyang and Liu Qingyun from our company act?" ”

Wu Yusen doesn't care, who the supporting role is not for, the queen of the Golden Horse Awards has opened her mouth, and she has to give her beautiful girl a face. Liu Jialing opened the door, and the two boys stood at the door, thanking Wu Yusen as soon as they came in. What Wu Yusen didn't expect was that Sun Ziming also explained to the two of them because of the two small supporting roles.

"Yaoyang and Qingyun have always had only small actors, no small roles. Uncle Tart is playing a supporting role, and now his salary and popularity are higher than that of Ploughshares. ”

The two bowed slightly and said, "Xie Lu, Brother Xie Ming, instruct." ”

When the three of them went out, Wu Yusen asked in surprise: "Director Sun, do you usually teach artists like this?" ”

Sun Ziming took out a pack of 'longevity cigarettes' from the drawer, which Brother Jing brought back to him from Taipei, and sent a note to Wu Yusen and said with a smile: "Brother Sen, when Liu Jialing played "The Butcher on a Rainy Night", she was just the third female of TVB, wasn't Brother Fa also a box office poison at the beginning?" These little actors are kind to them, and after they succeed in the future, everyone will always have a friendship. If you say a word now, won't Fa Ge still help you vacate the schedule? ”

Wu Yusen smiled, and secretly said No wonder people say that this guy is a monster, he is obviously only in his early twenties, and he is comparable to people in his forties.

……

sent Wu Yusen away, and Sun Ziming pulled Fa Ge into the office. This is a great god, if it weren't for the damn "Wind Whisperer", this can become the biggest commercial film director among Chinese directors! If it were possible, Sun Ziming would still want to dig into the United States to help him make a film.

The two entered the office, and Fa Ge sat on the sofa and listened for a long time before he came up with a sentence.

"Ziming, you can't dig it up, Tsui Hark is kind to Brother Sen."

Sun Ziming said disdainfully: "You know what a fart!" When you played "True Colors of Heroes 2", didn't you find the differences between the two? ”

Fa Ge recalled and hesitated: "You mean the filming style?" One likes to use slow motion to emphasize the momentum of the character, and the other likes to make people dizzy? ”

Sun Ziming stretched out a finger and said, "This is only a point, there is a more important point." Brother Sen doesn't like repetition, and Tsui Hark is a bit too eager for quick success. In my opinion, "True Colors of Heroes 2" is a dog's tail continuation mink, and Shi Tian's role is too blunt, obviously Tsui Hark is giving favors. ”

After Sun Ziming's explanation, Fa Ge also felt reasonable, and asked in a low voice: "Even if Brother Sen is willing to come over, can you not let him make a sequel?" ”

"You human pig brain, he doesn't want to shoot, let someone else shoot! When do you see me, did I make a sequel myself? Making money and making movies are sometimes not the same thing, this kind of big director has to give him full freedom! ”

Fa Ge was silent for a while, and when Sun Zi saw that there was uncertainty on his face, he knew what this guy was thinking. Don't look at Fa Ge who likes to laugh, in fact, he is also a character with a pig-like face and a bright heart. In order to get ahead, I didn't pretend to be cool in front of the TVB elevator, and I heard that Wu Zhenyu's guy is still learning his tricks.

"Don't worry, as long as Brother Sen is willing to come over, he will give Brother Jing the treatment. He does his own studio, he does it himself, and the company does not interfere with him in anything. I know that Tsui Hark's stingy ghost didn't make him rich, and I lent him the studio's start-up capital. ”

Fa Ge snorted twice and said with a smile: "Deal, I can't get used to Xu Lao Wei, a producer always criticizes the director, can he make films better than Brother Sen?" ”

Sun Ziming shook his head and said with a straight face: "Brother Fa, you are wrong. Mr. Xu is one of the few directors I admire in Hong Kong. You dig people up and you dig people, and you can't destroy our relationship with him. On our own, those 32 theaters can't get enough to eat, understand? ”

Fa Ge stood up and saluted, "Yes, sir". Sun Ziming smiled helplessly, he may be the most feared by his colleagues among the bosses of the film company.

"Get out! By the way, go on, when our artists vote, they all voted for Wang Zuxing. People in the circle, you help Golden Harvest do the work, and they will provide us with films in the future. ”

After Fa Ge went out, Sun Ziming took out Lei Juekun's business card from the drawer and prepared to call the Kowloon tycoon. As soon as his hand picked up the phone, Sun Ziming put it down again, and after thinking for a while, he went to find Uncle Zeng. Lei Juekun can monopolize the bus in Kowloon, it is definitely not a simple character, it is better for Uncle Zeng to contact him.

Uncle Zeng asked his grandson to sign the location budget of "A Chinese Ghost Story", and said with a smile: "This is a real big man, with hundreds of people." At the beginning, it was by daring to fight and being willing to spend money to resettle Lu Le's outer room, that he won the Kowloon Horse Bus, which was known as Lei Lao Hu 30 years ago. ”

"Lu Le? Just that Xiang Huaqiang's uncle? ”

Uncle Zeng nodded and said in a low voice: "Lu Le le's career by relying on the Xiang family, turned his head and made the Xiang family's new Yi'an one of the four major families and three major societies. If it weren't for the clean government storm of that year, New Ngee An might have suppressed the other two major associations. ”

Sun Ziming sighed: "Hong Kong is really small, and they are all acquaintances. ”

Uncle Zeng was happy and said with a smile: "What is this, Li Qiangbo, who came to block our door a few days ago, is the nephew of this Lei Laohu." Lei Laohu has only one daughter, and he died early, and this Li Qiangbo is more favored than his grandson. ”

The two laughed for a while, and Uncle Zeng began to talk about the sharing. There are three sharing models for Hong Kong films, one is rental, and the theater is rented to the producer and a rental fee is charged. The second is a 50% share of the light and shadow company, and the third is similar to Hollywood, 60% in the first week, 50% in the second week, and so on. At the beginning, Aunt Fang took the initiative to give 50% of the light and shadow, that is, she knew that "Home Alone" was a good film that could be shown for a few weeks, and she wanted to help the light and shadow to fight Jiahe and vent her evil anger for her and the sixth uncle.

"I suggest the third option, if we supply two theaters at the same time, it will definitely shorten the release period. is like "Home Alone", it is impossible to play it for more than a month. ”

Sun Ziming nodded in agreement, don't look at the first week is 60%, the second week is 50%, in fact, a movie in Hong Kong, can be released for 15 days, it is a big hit. Last year, "Home Alone" was released for 38 days, because there were only Shaw Brothers and Shuangnan films. During the Spring Festival, "Home Alone 2" was scheduled for the whole of Hong Kong, and the release time was immediately shortened to 14 days, and from the seventh day, 1/3 of the theaters began to adjust the release time and screen.

After the discussion, Sun Ziming got up and went out, and Uncle Zeng reminded him in the back: "Go back and change your clothes at noon, the Japanese have many rules." ”

"Okay, it must be a shirt and tie, and leather shoes can be used as a mirror!"
