Chapter 12: I'm Not Crazy

Because the Condor crew was still preparing, the official filming only began in June, Wang Zichuan only played the small role Yin Zhiping, and after the makeup was finalized, he often went to the crew of "Flower Heart" to study.

In the early morning of June 2, Wang Zichuan came to the Huaxin Dashao crew as usual, and saw Wang Jin filming Yang Pan's scene.

"Tsai! There you are. Wang Jin greeted and turned his attention to the camera.

Wang Zichuan took out the script of "Happy Ghost" and said to Wang Jin: "This is the script I wrote, Ah Jin, how much will it cost you?" ”

When Wang Jin heard that it was a new script, he immediately put down what he was doing, handed over the directing work to assistant director Liang Shengquan, and pulled Wang Zichuan to a pergola.

After watching it carefully for half an hour, Wang Jin praised: "Not bad! Chuanzai, you are really amazing, not only the story is cleverly conceived, the most rare thing is that there is no big scene, I estimated, the cost can be controlled at 800,000, plus the post-production zuò at most 1 million. ”

"800,000?" Wang Zichuan exclaimed: "Only 800,000!" Are you mistaken, this is a movie, you need to use cameras, film, and actors, is 800,000 really enough? ”

Wang Zichuan heard people talk a few days ago that Xu Guanjie's salary for singing is more than 1 million, but he didn't expect a blockbuster movie to cost 800,000, so the script was written by him, and the price in his heart is also about 2 million.

"No fuss!" Wang Jin explained while writing: "You see, actors don't need big names, the protagonists are all young and beautiful students, let's just find some newcomers, let alone the male protagonist, who looks like this, this kind of actor, there are many in Hong Kong, and the salary is not high, the sum of several leading actors is 300,000 is enough, and the dragon set plus the venue also costs 100,000, but the venue can be obtained through guò sponsorship, I think there are a lot of schools to choose from." ”

Wang Zichuan suddenly realized, he almost forgot about sponsorship, this is a big killer, but he himself has no fame, he can only rely on Wang Jin's relationship to pull some sponsorship, and he is embarrassed to take advantage of this.

"Ah Jin, thanks to you this time, I'm not good at movies, I think it's better to revise the sharing agreement, I ......"

Wang Jin patted Wang Zichuan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I fancy your script, and you also have investment, don't worry!" Everyone doesn't suffer, and besides, this time it's also a friend, if we have the chance, we can cooperate again, Chuan Zai! Seriously, I'm optimistic about you, sooner or later, you'll soar into the sky, just like me. ”

To be honest, Wang Zichuan was very moved, but Wang Jin's smile was so awkward and too obscene! The touching words changed the taste of him as soon as he said them, as if he was joking.

Wang Jin really said obscenely: "Your costume beauty scene is about to be completed, do you have any ideas?" ”

"She's just friends with me!" Wang Zichuan added: "Good friend! ”

Wang Jin had a very clear expression, got up and said: "I'll go first, don't worry, the crew will do my best to prepare for the release this Christmas, it's not that I don't grab the Spring Festival schedule, that's where several major companies fight each other, and we can only be cannon fodder when we go in." ”

The matter of the script was solved, but Wang Zichuan's pressure was heavier, and he didn't know where to find 500,000 yuan.

Wang Zichuan lowered his head, carefully recalled the friends he had met in the past few days, and found that no one could come up with such a large sum of money.

"Are you going to borrow from a loan shark?"

As soon as Yang Pan came over, he heard the word 'usury', and immediately lost his color, and persuaded: "What usury? Tsai, don't do that! Those underworlds are all cannibalistic and don't spit out bones. ”

Yang Pan sat next to Wang Zichuan very naturally, looking intimate as if they were a couple.

Wang Zichuan turned sideways slightly and explained: "No, it's the script we wrote two days ago, Wang Jin plans to shoot it, of course it's our joint venture, although I'm sure to make money, but where to raise funds for a while?" ”

Yang Pan lowered his head and thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "I have a little private money, you can use it first." ”

Wang Zichuan smiled self-deprecatingly, thinking that the other party only had a few hundred or a few thousand, but he was still moved to hold Yang Pan's jade hand, and said with a smile: "My good wife, how can I have enough money in my private house, I'd better think of another way." ”

Hearing the words 'good wife', Yang Pan was shy at first, and then asked sweetly: "Then what are you going to do?" Or should I mortgage my house to the bank? ”

Wang Zichuan hurriedly waved his hand and refused: "How can this be done, let alone how you can explain to your parents." ”

Yang Pan looked up and explained: "The owner of the house is my name, just don't let my parents know, you can mortgage 200,000 yuan in the bank, plus I have tens of thousands of private money saved, and I will think of a way to do the rest." ”

"Enough! That's enough! Wang Zichuan didn't know what to say, and replied with a smile: "Panpan, thank you!" I'll figure out how to get the rest of the money myself, but the house is kept first, and there is really no way to mortgage it, and don't talk about it. ”

Seeing someone coming, Yang Pan withdrew his jade hand.

"Hmmm! I know, how did she get here? Yang Pan hurriedly stopped himself from thinking nonsense.

Wang Zichuan felt that he was very cowardly, and he actually relied on a woman to sell a house to raise money for him.

Yang Pan saw that it was Zhong Yihong walking this way, got up to meet him, the two smiled and said a few words, Yang Pan came back and said, "The director called me, I'll go first." ”

Wang Zichuan got up and smiled at Yang Pan, and then said to Zhong Yihong: "How can the big beauty have time to come?" ”

Zhong Yihong hadn't removed her makeup yet, and her carefully drawn eyebrows and lips looked extraordinary, and she smiled when she heard this: "I haven't thanked you yet?" ”

Wang Zichuan was confused and asked, "Thank me for what?" ”

Zhong Yihong glanced at Wang Zichuan, I don't know if he was pretending to be confused, she glanced at the other party charmingly, and reminded: "I heard the director say that it was you who mentioned that I played the heroine, don't you need to thank you?" ”

Wang Zichuan smiled, he thought it was something, and immediately waved his hand and said lightly: "You misunderstood, I just mentioned it, the key is the director's credit." ”

Zhong Yihong saw that Wang Zichuan did not take credit, and looked at him in surprise, feeling Wang Zichuan's resistance to this aspect, so he wanted to find something else.

"That Miss Yang just now is your girlfriend!"

Wang Zichuan nodded, and suddenly a shadow appeared in his heart, and he slowly shook his head and sighed: "What are you doing talking about this, I heard that you, a big star, were nominated for the second Best Actress at the Academy Awards, congratulations to you, big beauty." ”

Hearing the strange ridicule, Zhong Yi's red face flashed a hint of red, and a pair of black eyes looked at Wang Zichuan with a dripping look, as if he found something interesting, he pursed his lips and smiled.

Wang Zichuan shook his right hand in front of her and asked, "Do I have flowers on my face?" Even though I'm a little handsome, you don't have to stare at me like that. ”

"Poof! You? …… Where do you look handsome. As soon as Zhong Yihong said it, she felt a little abrupt, and smiled deliberately: "I see that you look serious, but your mind is full of strange ideas, otherwise how would you come up with these plots of chasing women." ”

"Hahaha...... You're funny! ”

Wang Zichuan couldn't say anything except laughing.

Zhong Yihong also laughed for a while, feeling that she had become friends with Wang Zichuan, so she was no longer restrained, playing with her sideburns, and asked playfully: "You are an assistant director, why don't you learn to film?" These days, I see you running up and down, like a miscellaneous person. ”

Wang Zichuan said as a matter of course: "Of course, the director learned from the chores, this is what Brother Du taught me, don't look at me as if I am not doing my job, now I have a lot of experience in directing, but I can't be a fast gunner like Ah Jin." ”

"Fast gunslinger?" Zhong Yihong laughed stunned at first, then couldn't help laughing, and finally her face turned crimson, embarrassed and didn't know what to say, and gave the other party a strange look.

Looking at the amorous Zhong Yihong, Wang Zichuan couldn't help but think of the information of her previous life, he didn't know how many times he had read these things in Du Niang, and they had long been rotten in his heart.

Zhong Yihong was embarrassed to be stared at, and teased: "Am I beautiful, why do you look at me like this, I'm not afraid that your girlfriend will be jealous!" ”

The two of them each smiled, resolved the embarrassment, and the distance was suddenly much closer.

Zhong Yihong asked: "Chuan Zai, how much can you say that this movie can have at the box office?" The main reason for the quality of a drama in Xiangjiang is the box office, the box office is red, everything is easy to say, the box office is not high, no matter how good your acting skills are, it is useless, and you will be given the name of the box office. ”

As soon as he heard the three words box office, Wang Zichuan remembered Zhou Runfa, Fa Ge is now the time to be unhappy, during this period, Fa Ge's movies are not popular, and the box office results are not proportional to the screen table, and he was once named "box office**".

"The theme of this drama is chasing women, and there are many funny elements added to chasing women, although the cost is only more than 1 million, and the box office fluctuates around seven or eight million, I'm talking about the local box office."

Zhong Yihong was stunned for a moment, and said with a surprised smile: "You really dare to think, according to me, it would be good to have five million, after all, the director is fast-paced, and some places are inevitably ......." ”

Wang Zichuan smiled slightly, not planning to continue to dwell on this topic, glanced at Zhong Yihong, and said, "I'm interested in the box office ** you just said." ”

Zhong Yihong rolled her eyes, she felt a little unable to keep up with the rhythm, and deliberately waited for a while before saying: "You said that Fa Zai, he is not like this now, he just married his girlfriend Yu An'an, but he is in a bad mood, and he has the notoriety of the box office, what else?" ”

Wang Zichuan said seriously: "The box office ** is nothing to me, if Fa Ge doesn't want this nickname, let him come to me, I have a script, let Fa Ge star, it will definitely be a big hit." ”

Zhong Yihong frowned, she didn't feel the same in her heart, and her mouth seemed to complain and explain: "Who do you think you are, you are not the only one who wants to help Fa Zai, but the movie is made one by one, four movies were made last year, and next year's schedule has also been determined, I am afraid you will have to wait until 85 years." ”

No way! The box office ** can't stop Fa Ge's popularity! Wang Zichuan was convinced, no wonder Fa Ge could be popular, and wanted to fight here, Wang Zichuan said seriously:

"I'm not kidding you! Sooner or later, I will stand at the top and establish my own film company...... Also, don't look at me like this, I'm not a psychopath, help me say goodbye to Panpan! ”
