The next morning, Sun Peng met Tang Long, the actor of "Spy of the Spy", and Bian Lin, the director.

I have to admit that the strength of Galloping Horse Pictures is indeed very strong, and it can find the spy director Bian Lin in a short period of time. After knowing this person's name, Sun Peng deliberately looked for his film to watch, and the style was really suitable.

Bian Lin's strength is modern action and suspense films.

And the mastery of big scenes is also quite in place, Sun Peng's favorite is even the only science fiction film he has ever directed - a story of a future policeman. Although the scene seems miserable to Sun Peng, who is used to watching Hollywood blockbusters, he has experience directing blockbusters......

……

“…… What's there? ”

After glancing at Tang Long several times, Sun Peng secretly pursed his lips: "Isn't it just a little taller than me, a little stronger, and a little more handsome than me?" What's the big deal? The most important thing for men is to look at the connotation, this guy's acting skills are so bad, and he is about to become old bacon......"

"Hello Brother Tang, can you sign for me?"

Zheng Jia's eyes flashed with stars, and he was a little embarrassed to take out his special book for star signing!

“……”

The feeling of wanting to vomit blood, Sun Peng experienced it.

Of course, he knew that his female ticket liked to chase stars, whether it was Luo Cheng or Chen Feifei in front of him, otherwise he would not have brought Zheng Jia with him when he came to see Tang Long. In his opinion, there is nothing wrong with little girls liking celebrities, as long as you don't open your mouth, just take me away if you like it......

But it's no problem chasing stars, you might as well wait a little longer!

Just when Sun Peng was struggling with whether to come forward to organize, Tang Long was slightly stunned and then showed a sunny smile, nodded and said, "This is my honor, Miss Zheng Jia!" ”

Sun Peng's girlfriend is his own fan? This is not a bad finding!

If Sun Peng knew what Tang Long was thinking at this time, he would definitely think too much - my girlfriend is not only your fan, he is a fan of many people, right?

After getting Tang Long's signature, Zheng Jia was full of joy, and took the small notebook and went to Bian Lin next to him to sign it. As one of the top action movie directors in China, Zheng Jia has also seen a lot of this bigwig's movie!

Forty-six or seventeen-year-old Bian Lin wore a pair of glasses, and had a very elegant image, and after signing Zheng Jia, he smiled and said politely: "Mr. Sun, to be honest, although they reminded me before, I still can't help but sigh at your age after seeing you!" It's hard for me to imagine that Lu Ding Ji was written by a young man like you. ”

"Oh? Bian Dao has seen Lu Ding Ji? ”

Raising his eyebrows, Sun Peng asked with a smile.

"Yes, my favorite martial arts!"

Nodding vigorously, Bian Lin Zhengse said: "Actually, in your few books, my favorite is the character of Wei Xiaobao, because he is real enough!" If I have the chance, I'd love to talk to you about adapting it into a movie in the future......"

The Legend of Deer and Ding? Movie? Do you want to direct?

His eyelids twitched several times, and Sun Peng smiled.

Let's not talk about whether Bian Lin's words are true or false, did I really like martial arts or was it just to reserve the adaptation rights like other directors, but I wanted to adapt Lu Ding Ji?

Don't be funny!

You, a director who mainly shoots suspense and action movies, want to shoot our star's classic nonsensical comedy?

No one can say yes!

After laughing, Sun Peng hurriedly said, "Gentlemen, I wonder if we should hurry up and talk about business?" ”

Tang Long's purpose in meeting Sun Peng was actually very simple, that is, he wanted to discuss the details of the script of the spy with him.

For him, the spy is important.

If you want to keep your current position as a film and television star, Tang Long is actually very easy, after all, he has accumulated enough popularity and contacts over the years, and there is never a shortage of movies to speak of. But it is obvious that the handsome guy is unwilling to be a movie star who eats with his face all the time, or that he is unwilling to be evaluated as a movie star all the time, not a superstar!

Just like Luo Cheng and Chen Feifei, they are not satisfied with just being domestic kings and queens.

But Tang Long knows very well what his advantages are, and he is also more aware of his disadvantages - the lack of acting skills.

This kind of thing really can't be solved by hard work.

Tang Long himself has been thinking about it over the years, but it may be that he doesn't have the talent in this area, so there has been no breakthrough progress, so every time a new movie is released, he will be severely criticized by his old opponents: Eat with his face, his acting skills are not as good as even the students of the acting department, and so on, to be honest, Tang Long is tired of listening to it.

The acting skills are insufficient, and the box office is coming to make up!

It's a pity that although Tang Long's movies have been good at the box office in recent years, they can make investors make a fortune, but they have never made a lot of money, not even a movie with a box office of one billion!

With such achievements, how can you cheekily call yourself a superstar?

That's why Tang Long will be a treasure after seeing the script of the spy, because he can see the difference from other regular spy movies - it's so cool! Human skin masks, gum bombs, and a heavily guarded intelligence room raining down from the sky......

The performance I'm most used to is just pretending to be cool!

Under Sun Peng's greeting, Sun Ya left with Zheng Jia, who had obtained the autograph, satisfied. She came to meet the star, and after seeing it, she was not interested in staying.

"After a preliminary assessment, we decided to invest 300 million to shoot!"

Bian Lin, the director, was much calmer than Tang Long, and said with a smile: "For a spy movie, this is quite a big investment!" And in addition to Tang Long as the leading actor, I also plan to ask Qiu Bingbing to play the heroine, and Mr. Bai Renmu to play the supporting role, what does Mr. Sun think? Although the salaries of these two people are a little higher, our production fees are sufficient this time......"

After listening to this, Sun Peng was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned black again, and he couldn't help but ask, "May I ask...... How much do they get paid in total? What is Mr. Tang Longtang's salary? ”

"Uh......"

Regarding Sun Peng's sudden question, Tang Long was stunned for a moment.

How can you ask that?

"Yes, salary!"

Nodding, Sun Peng said seriously: "Although this question is a bit inappropriate, I want to know how much of the salary of several leading actors accounts for the 300 million investment?" And how much money was spent on filming? ”

"This ......"

Hearing Sun Peng say this, Bian Lin suddenly understood.

What dare lovers care about is not how much money you can make at all, but how much of the 300 million investment will be spent on production, not to pay these people's salaries!

A Tang Long, the salary starts at least 30 million, right?

If you add Qiu Bingbing, who is also a first-line movie star, Bai Renmu, an old drama bone, and some supporting actors who are familiar to the audience, how much can the total salary of these people be? How much money can be left after the 300 million production fee is removed from these salaries?

"This ......"

After thinking for a while, Bian Lin said with a dry smile: "Actually, it doesn't add up much, and there is at least more than 100 million left for production, I think it's enough for this script!" ”

"Enough? Hehe......"

With a chuckle, Sun Peng's face was full of disappointment.

He really doesn't understand that the film market in China is so huge now, and good movies can be fed in China alone, so why can't he invest more money in production?

More than 100 million shots of spy in espionage? Is it enough?

Let's not talk about the cost of the first part of the original spy in spies, anyway, it must be much more than 300 million, and that was in 1990. Even if the shots that required a lot of investment in the 90s can now be easily achieved because of the advancement of film technology, such as the final helicopter train battle, which can now be made at a lower cost, but ......

The audience in this era has much higher requirements than in the past nine years!

So from the beginning, in addition to copying the plot, Sun Peng didn't think about copying the scenes of the original version - it's hard to imagine how much box office the first spy part of the spy will have if it is released in 2017 as a classic of action movies!

Don't doubt it, let's take a look at the fourth part of the spy first!

Look at that scene, that sense of the times, and the first one is a level of work?

If it really has the effect of shooting a spy in a spy, let alone making money, it's good if you don't lose your life!

Seeing that Sun Peng seemed to be quite dissatisfied, Bian Lin's brows furrowed and asked, "Mr. Sun, you don't seem to be a little optimistic about the investment figures?" ”

"Of course, it's too low!"

Without saving face for the two big names, Sun Peng nodded without hesitation and said, "Haven't you analyzed the script?" How much does it cost to build a top-secret archive alone? And the final big battle, how much does it cost for five minutes? More than 100 million were used to make this movie...... If it weren't for you, I'd have thought someone was joking with me! ”

To be honest, Sun Peng's heart is tired of it now!

He thought that 300 million was the production cost of the entire movie, but he didn't expect people to include the actors' salaries!

Now he is almost certain that the gang will definitely save a lot of money on all fronts. For example, those images that show computer experts breaking through opponents' systems are always cool on the computer screen when Hollywood blockbusters are filmed, and the beautifully crafted interface looks tall at first glance. But domestic movies always seem to feel that the money spent in this area is too worthless, and the simplicity is unbearable!

The difference in details, the end result is a lack of overall realism.

Of course, domestic blockbusters also pay special attention to details, which are very real; Americans also have ultra-low-budget action movies and sci-fi movies, which feel just as bad, but ......

Spying on my spy?

This is unbearable!

Listening to Sun Peng's words, Bian Lin's face also sank.

That's a very unkind statement.

In fact, how much money is invested has nothing to do with the two of them, as directors and leading actors, of course, they also hope that there will be more funds. But people are willing to give 300 million, what can Bian Lin do? Anyway, he was used to spending less money, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so he was a little unhappy when he heard Sun Peng's words......

Tang Long was also a little unhappy in his heart, but when he saw that the atmosphere was not right, he hurriedly said: "Actually, 300 million is really a lot, you look at the "Pitch Black Bullet" with a high box office in the first half of the year, as far as I know, the cost is only more than 300 million!" So saving a little is definitely enough, Mr. Sun, why don't we talk about some problems with the script first......

"I'm sorry, I don't think there's anything left to talk about!"

Shaking his head, Sun Peng simply stood up directly: "If the 300 million investment is the production fee, I think this movie can be expected, but if the 300 million also includes the remuneration of you stars...... I'm sorry, but I'm already starting to regret handing over the script to you Galloping Horse Films! ”

After saying that, without waiting for the stunned Tang Long and Bian Linduo to say anything, Sun Peng directly got up and turned his head and walked out.
