PS: 2 more delivered, there will be a change in the evening, make up for yesterday's. I also hope that you can give me the recommendation ticket, I am sick and need to be treated, cough cough cough!!
Feitian Entertainment Co., Ltd., Yang Fan's office.
At this time, an old man at the level of an uncle was sitting opposite Yang Fan, holding a stack of A4 papers in his hand at the reader, looking at his expression as if he was very excited. "Mr. Yang, this is the script you bought? What a script, it's really a good script! The story is lighthearted, funny, and selling point. And there has never been a zombie-themed ghost movie before, this is definitely a new genre in the film industry, and Uncle Curry, who wrote this script, is definitely a ghost. Judging from my Lao Zhang's experience, as long as this movie is made, it will definitely be a hit, and it will definitely be a hit! Zhang Deming said excitedly.
After so many years in the film industry, Zhang Deming is still very confident in his vision, he can still see a good script, and this movie called "Uncle Zombie" is a good script.
He is even sure that this movie will definitely be a hit, and there is no need to worry about the box office at all.
Zhang Deming, the contracted director of Feitian Entertainment Company.
This is a director recruited by Yang Fan earlier, and he is currently the only director in the company.
I heard that he was famous for making comedy movies before, with tens of millions of works, and he can be said to be a very famous director in Hong Kong.
But what kind of transformation did this guy do after he became famous, he went to shoot a police and bandit shootout movie, tossed a few big productions, and then all hit the street, and his previous company boss vomited three liters of blood, and then fired him.
After being opened by the company, he didn't worry, because a new owner hired him immediately, after all, his previous reputation was there.
After coming to the new owner, this guy hadn't woken up yet, and felt that the failure of those movies was not his problem at all, so he continued to fool the new owner to invest him in making a police and bandit shootout blockbuster.
The result is still the same, I went to my grandmother's house after filming two films in a row, and was finally swept away!
It wasn't until this time that he realized that blockbusters were not so easy to make, and he was still too naïve.
However, at this time, he woke up too late, several movies hit the street at the box office in a row, and he was fired from two companies, his original reputation has been lost, and no film company dares to ask him to direct at this time.
So his life as a director began to fall down.
From a director of tens of millions to having no drama to shoot in the end, he was almost spoiled by himself.
This is Zhang Deming's glorious resume.
looked at Zhang Deming and Yang Fan, who was very excited in front of him, very satisfied, so he said: "Since you think the script is good, then I have decided, this movie is the pioneering work of our "Feitian Entertainment", I hope you can make a blockbuster movie." ”
"Don't worry, Mr. Yang! I will definitely not let you down, I will definitely make this movie well with my heart and make it a good start for our company! Zhang Deming patted his chest and reassured.
"Well, that's for the best." Yang Fan said.
"But you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself, just shoot well." Yang Fan said, and then he continued: "I am fully responsible for this movie, including the producer, I don't care about anything, and you can choose the actors and so on, I just want the result." Then you give me a math of how much budget I'll need to start making the film, and I'll get the financial allocation for you. ”
"Huh? Is this true? Mr. Yang, you don't care about the filming of the movie? Putting me in charge? Zhang Deming asked in surprise.
The boss in front of him just said that he didn't care about anything, and even the most important film producer was not named, which surprised him!
You must know that even if the general company boss does not serve as the producer, he will dispatch his henchmen to sit in this position, because this producer is the most powerful existence for a movie besides the boss.
Yang Fan actually gave him such an important position, which couldn't help but surprise him.
"Hehe, Lao Zhang, there is a saying that is very reasonable, the so-called employment is not suspicious and suspicious, since I dare to ask you to come back to our company, then I choose to believe you!" Yang Fan said very confidently.
After speaking, he looked at Zhang Deming with a smile.
At such an instant, Zhang Deming felt that the young boss in front of him was so courageous, he felt that Yang Fan was like a big mountain, and he was like the little ant, this mountain was so tall and strong......
At this moment, Zhang Deming felt that his heartbeat was a little too fast, and he tried to calm his mood.
calmed down, Zhang Deming roughly budgeted the cost of the movie in his heart, and after a while, he had a count in his heart.
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Deming said: "Mr. Yang, don't worry, since you trust me so much, I will do my best to make a good movie." As for the budget for this movie, I just estimated that it only needs three million. ”
After speaking, Zhang Deming looked at Yang Fan nervously, he was afraid that his budget would be said too much by Yang Fan, after all, this company is only so big.
But the conscience of heaven and earth, if it weren't for the small size of the company, he would definitely say 500,000 more, because according to the best budget in his heart, it is so much.
As for the 300,000 less now, Zhang Deming also has his own plans, if Yang Fan approves the budget of 3 million, then even if there are hundreds of thousands less in the future, it is a big deal that he will find a way to pull some sponsorship by himself.
Listening to Zhang Deming's budget, Yang Fan thought for a while and said: "That's it, the company still has some money, so I will directly give you a budget of five million, I have no other requirements, you must do a good job in making zombies for me, as well as computer special effects......"
"Don't worry, Mr. Yang, with your budget of five million, I will definitely be able to make a movie that you are satisfied with......"
……
After coming out of the boss's office for a while, Zhang Deming woke up from joy.
It's been a year, it's been a year, and today he finally has another movie to make.
At this moment, he remembered his downfall a year ago.
A year ago, he didn't have a movie, he didn't have a job, and he couldn't even pay the rent.
Just when he was at his most depressed, Yang Fan found him and said that he would invite him to come to the company to make a movie.
After some conversation, he learned that Yang Fan's company is a small company, and it is a **** company to put it mildly.
Seriously, if it was before, he wouldn't have considered a small company like Yang Fan at all, but at this time and then, when his life is about to go on, where is he qualified to care about this, and there are still a large number of people in the family who rely on him to support him.
So under the condition of making a living, Zhang Deming asked the young boss for an annual salary of 500,000 yuan, but he didn't expect the other party to agree to this condition without thinking.
So he became a member of "Feitian Entertainment".
Looking back at Yang Fan's office again, to be honest, Zhang Deming didn't have much hope for this company at first.
Even earlier, he prepared the worst plan, that is, if Yang Fan asked him to shoot Fengyue films, he would admit it.
Because in his eyes, this kind of small company must want to make those Fengyue films to make money, and there are too many such small companies in Hong Kong.
But the truth is completely opposite to what he thought, Yang Fan not only bought the regular movie script, but also controlled everything for himself, which made him grateful!
After tidying up his clothes, Zhang Deming walked to his office with his head held high, he knew that "Feitian Entertainment" would be the place where he would take off again......
