Chapter 601: Join

Whether there is a script for the second episode, Sun Peng will not be based on the box office.

The only thing he watched was the quality of the final film, and the quality of the original sequel. Therefore, Galloping Horse Pictures, which could not meet the requirements in terms of production fees, Sun Peng did not hesitate to give up the big IP of Mission Impossible, and because he didn't like the last two episodes of Hurricane Rescue, even if he cooperated well with Forbidden City Pictures, Sun Peng chose to decline politely.

But Lotus Pictures' "The Identity of Bourne", Sun Peng is very satisfied.

And for the next two episodes, Sun Peng also likes it quite a lot, so it is a matter of course to continue to make a sequel.

For his decision, the rest of the crew was naturally surprised and delighted.

However, Sun Peng didn't want to say much about it, which affected everyone's propaganda journey, so after dealing with it vaguely, he left a group of confused people and left......

……

In the fourth week of "Dragon Gate Inn", the box office finally began to fall.

However, with the repeated support of many martial arts fans and the constant passers-by entering the cinema, the single-day box office still remained at about 10 million, and on Friday, it broke through 16 million again, and the box office exceeded 30 million on Saturday and Sunday, so that the box office in the fourth week still exceeded 100 million.

"It's just a billion box office, I'm afraid it's difficult!"

After seeing the results of "Dragon Gate Inn", Sun Peng sighed heavily.

Although the fans are really powerful, looking at those people's comments on the Internet, many of them are three or four brushes, but the background of martial arts is still a little worse after all, even if many people see the rave reviews, they are not willing to spend that hundred and eighty to go to the cinema to watch it. Coupled with the world's film classification system, it has almost blocked audiences under the age of 18......

"It's okay, it's not too bad."

After taking a slow sip of water, Sima Gang smiled leisurely: "And the university has started to have a holiday these days, so maybe the peak will turn around at that time?" After all, from now until the first day of the Lunar New Year, there doesn't seem to be any weighty film released. ”

"Hehe, I have exactly the same idea as Teacher Sima."

Wei Xiaolin, who was next to him, peeled oranges and ate them, and echoed with a smile.

One of the two is a veteran producer, and the other is a director who has just proved his ability with "Detective Di Renjie", and he is quite familiar with Sun Peng, so he naturally talks and laughs. The other assistant director sitting next to him, that is, Ma Xiaoling's boyfriend Wei Zhi, was much more restrained at this time, and only chuckled twice at this time and didn't say much.

However, Sun Peng didn't plan to talk about the last movie today, and soon said with a smile: "Forget it, no matter how much the box office is, I will make it this time, at least the production fee of "Kill Bill" will definitely be earned, so in the end, it will be good to be content, haha." ”

"Uh...... Hahaha! ”

Slightly stunned, the three of them were suddenly happy.

The other two are okay, after all, they are not particularly clear about the situation of "Dragon Gate Inn", but Wei Xiaolin is in control of the filming and post-production of the whole movie from beginning to end, so he really understands Sun Peng's words.

The box office is 800 million, and Sun Peng can get at least nearly 300 million!

Even if you get rid of the cost and remuneration or something, and then deduct taxes, there will definitely be no problem with more than 100 million left, and if you save a little money, I'm afraid it will really be enough to shoot "Kill Bill". And if the box office can reach one billion in the end, maybe even Sima Gang and Wei Xiaolin will have their salaries, including the salaries of the actors, after all, these people really can't get much money, and they can't even get the salaries of big stars like Tang Long.

"Ahem, ahem!"

After everyone laughed for a while, Sima Gang coughed lightly twice, and said with a straight face: "Okay gentlemen, no matter what the box office is, it's all in the past, and now we are going to talk about Xiao Sun's new film "Kill Bill". In a while, it will be the Spring Festival, and when the time comes, you won't be able to do anything, and if you want to make the final preparations, you must hurry up. ”

When it came to business, everyone fell silent.

After learning Sima Gang coughed lightly twice, Wei Xiaolin said with a straight face: "Okay, let's talk about the preparations for the movie first, Mr. Sima has just joined, and there may be some things that are not very clear." In the past two months, Xiao Sun has been busy with new movies, and Xiao Wei and I have not been idle, in addition to building a studio for the main scenes, we have also traveled to Japan and the United States, and selected a few locations......"

The preparation for "Kill Bill" actually started a long time ago.

Especially when Wei Zhi also joined in, Wei Xiaolin's work efficiency instantly increased a lot. After all, even if he lacks some experience, Wei Zhi is also an assistant director after all, and the key is that he is extra attentive and hardworking, which has helped him a lot.

The preparation in the early stage is nothing more than the location and studio, as well as costumes, props and actors.

"Working with Mr. Sun is the easiest."

After saying what he had done, Wei Xiaolin couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "But it's also the most boring, because he has thought everything through, and all you have to do is realize his idea." So it looks like we're doing a lot of things, but it's actually not a lot of work. ”

"Uh...... Hehe. ”

After being slightly stunned, Sun Peng smiled dumbly.

Boring?

Perhaps.

For many directors, creating a film and taking pictures of their own hearts is often the greatest joy of work. But because of Sun Peng's existence, or because of the existence of those music and pictures in his mind, Wei Xiaolin was completely deprived of this fun.

They have to think about things that take days to determine, and Sun Peng only needs a few seconds to recall, how can it be compared?

"Okay, I see."

After taking the notebook prepared for him in advance and checking what Wei Xiaolin said one by one, Sima Gang finally nodded and said, "Then next, the coordination of this movie will be handed over to me?" ”

"Yes, yes, hurry up!"

Hurriedly nodded, Wei Xiaolin smiled with a relieved look: "I can finally call out this bunch of troubles, haha!" Xiao Sun, you should have invited Teacher Sima over a long time ago, and professional things should be left to professionals to do! ”

"Hehe, it's not too late."

Taking a deep breath, Sima Gang smiled and said: "Then next, I will arrange the work according to Director Sun's script and design, although it is the Spring Festival next, but I still hope to make all the preparations as early as mid-March, and late March at the latest, and then start filming." ”

"March? Is it so fast? ”

Hearing Sima Gang say this, Sun Peng was suddenly surprised and delighted.

What is surprising is that he is completely unprepared, and he is happy that just a Sima Gang can make the preparation of the movie so efficient?

"Fast? Hehe. ”

With another chuckle, Sima Gang said lightly: "Actually, if I joined at the beginning, I believe that now you don't have time to make any games or write any new songs, and this movie will definitely start filming......"
