073【Special Advisor】
The open office room of the staff has become a conference room, and the way everyone sits is crooked and casual.
Ma Qiao pulled an office chair and sat straight next to Kang Jianfei, with a meeting notebook in his hand, Zhong Yuan, the fat man, sat on the opposite desk, Hu Juncai moved a small bench and sat down, Qi Bo sat by the window and smoked, Zhong Zhiwen and Wu Chenggang sat next to each other and whispered, Chen Xunqi was watering a pot of plants on the table, and Chen Bingkun was leaning on the desk and yawning constantly.
The company's people are all there, Li Qian is making tea and pouring water for everyone, and Zhang Xu, a typist and errand runner recruited by Maqiao, is handing out the employee contract that Maqiao personally made out for everyone.
After everyone signed the contract, Zhou Mingfang roughly reported the accounts, excluding various expenses, the company's 5 million still had more than 4.783 million yuan left (deducting office leasing, decoration, purchase supplies and other expenses).
"Okay, then I'll say a few words first," Kang Jianfei said, "Today is our first staff meeting, and everyone who is not familiar with each other before knows each other." Ah Kun, you introduce yourself first......"
Chen Bingkun immediately stood up with a smile and said, "Hello everyone, my name is Chen Bingkun, I specialize in assisting Fei Ge in film casting, and I also have a temporary position as a company scout in the artist department." ”
Qi Bo said: "My name is Qi Chunwang, and I am in charge of logistics in the production department. ”
Chen Xunqi said: "My name is Chen Xunqi......"
After everyone introduced themselves one by one, Kang Jianfei said: "I open a film company, not to mention my love for movies and pursuit of art. However, since I am in this industry, movies must be loved and art must be pursued, but the more practical thing is to make movies to make money. The company makes money, and everyone takes more money. Now the company is still small, you are all talented people, if you feel that you can not fully display your talents, then you can only be wronged first. Now there are more than 4.7 million in the company's account, and I am going to make a movie called "Mr. Zombie", and several people in the production department have already read part of the script. The rough budget of this movie is at least 3.5 million or more, which means that the company will not have much money left after the filming, so it must not be ...... the street"
Hu Juncai reminded: "Ah Fei, the overseas box office of "Happy Ghost" has not yet been recorded. ”
Kang Jianfei was quite unhappy when he interrupted his speech, and he glanced at him and said: "It will take at least more than a month for the overseas box office to recover, and then we will talk about it." Now we are faced with a situation where it is difficult to find a location for "Mr. Zombie", and we can't rent the Sho Brothers' Clear Water Bay set and Golden Harvest's Busan Road set. Ladies and gentlemen, the first thing we have to solve now is the problem of location, who knows where there are buildings and streets in the early Republic of China? ”
Everyone was thinking in silence, and Qi Bo suddenly said: "Taipei's China Film Cultural City should be suitable, and many big-budget martial arts films in Hong Kong are filmed there." ”
Kang Jianfei asked: "Is it easy to apply for a visa to Taiwan?" ”
Qi Bo said: "In order to encourage Hong Kong film companies to go to Taiwan to make films, Taiwan has a special film and television visa, which can be processed in a few days, which is faster than a study visa. ”
Kang Jianfei thought for a while and said, "Okay, let's go to Taipei for filming." In addition, Uncle Qi, Uncle Cousin, Ah Kun and Chen Xunqi, you will leave for Taipei in advance to contact China Film Cultural City, rent shooting equipment and call extras. ”
Chen Bingkun hurriedly said: "Brother Fei, I only know Hong Kong actors. I don't know how to do it. ”
Kang Jianfei smiled: "I believe in your ability, won't you know each other when you go?" ”
While a few people were talking, Li Shan suddenly walked over, walked to Kang Jianfei's side and whispered, "Miss Pan Yingzi is here, saying that she is here to get the script." ”
"Please let her in," Kang Jianfei finished speaking, and said to everyone, "Okay, today's meeting is here, everyone will go down and do their own work." ”
Other people are okay, but Ma Qiao lamented in his heart: I thought that he was a top student who graduated from the Department of Financial Law of the University of Hong Kong and graduated from Harvard Business School, and wanted to come back to show his strength, but who knew that he entered such a small company as a bare-bones commander, and even asked him to ask for visas and air tickets in person, which is really a tragedy!
Kang Jianfei returned to his general manager's office, and a young woman walked in less than a minute.
Pan Yingzi is wearing a bat shirt on her upper body, a pair of straight white trousers underneath, a refreshing dress and her baby face, she looks at most 20 years old, where does she look like a young woman in her early 30s?
"Hello, Miss Pan, please take a seat!" Kang Jianfei smiled and took out a copy of the script of "Mr. Zombie".
After Pan Yingzi sat down, she looked at Kang Jianfei curiously.
Pan Yingzi became famous very early, and before Bruce Lee became popular, she was already ranked among the twelve golden hairpins of the Shaw Brothers. She has been filming in Hong Kong and Taiwan for a long time. There are a large number of fans in the bay, but it is a pity that the popularity is popular, and there is always a distance from the top actresses. Especially after her husband set up a film company, Pan Yingzi has been working behind the scenes for several years, and has not appeared in a movie for five years.
It can be said that now is the lowest time in Pan Yingzi's life. In life, her relationship with her husband broke down and divorced, and her family's film company closed down in her career, and her fame was exhausted after a few years of filming, and she came back to shoot "Famous Sword and Merry" two months ago, and many young audiences didn't know her.
Two days ago, Chen Bingkun invited her to make a movie, but Pan Yingzi didn't think much about it, so she agreed. In addition to the lack of money, it is Kang Jianfei's "Ten Million Director" title at work, and Pan Yingzi wants to use Kang Jianfei's hand to increase her screen exposure.
If it was before the release of "Happy Ghost", even if Kang Jianfei went to invite Pan Yingzi in person, it is estimated that the latter would not be too lazy to see him.
"Miss Pan, this is your script." Kang Jianfei suddenly remembered going to Taipei to make a film, and asked, "Is Miss Pan familiar with Taipei China Film Cultural City?" ”
Pan Yingzi nodded and said: "Familiar, I was a producer a few years ago, and I often filmed in China Film Cultural City, and I also know the general manager of the Cultural City." ”
"That's great, this "Mr. Zombie" decided to be filmed in China Film Cultural City, but no one in my company is familiar with the situation over there, it would be great if Miss Pan could be the middleman to introduce it." Kang Jian Feidao.
When Pan Yingzi heard that she was just helping to contact, she readily agreed: "No problem, I'll just ask Manager Ma out for a meal then, and he will arrange everything." ”
Kang Jianfei was in a good mood when he heard it, and he was afraid that there would be no way to go to a different place for filming, otherwise he would waste a lot of time and energy on unnecessary things. With Pan Yingzi as the middleman to contact the general manager of China Film Cultural City, things will be much easier to do, and filming will be smooth.
The original version of "Mr. Zombie" had an initial budget of 4.5 million, but because of Lin Zhengying's excellence, the final cost nearly doubled, and even Lin Zhengying himself did not get the director's salary because of this, and was nicknamed "the chief of scattered wealth".
Now Taipei's filming liaison affairs have Pan Yingzi's help, and Kang Jianfei has a ready-made complete storyboard script, so he doesn't have to shoot a lot of waste film like Lin Zhengying. Excluding a few years of inflation, the original 8 million production of "Mr. Zombie", Kang Jianfei filmed, the cost will definitely not exceed 4 million.
Kang Jianfei called Uncle Qi, but he didn't expect Uncle Qi and Pan Yingzi to know each other, and he didn't have to introduce each other.
The three of them discussed for a while, and Kang Jianfei finally made a decision: "Then it's decided, I hired Miss Pan as a special consultant for "Mr. Zombie" to assist the crew in the filming of Taipei, and you and Uncle Qi will leave for Taipei in a few days." ”
"No problem, Mr. Kang, you can rest assured." Pan Yingzi said with a smile. This kind of shooting coordination work may be a bit tricky to replace with other actors, but Pan Yingzi is handy, she has been going back and forth between Hong Kong and Taiwan as a filmmaker in the past few years.
"It's not early, let's go to dinner together." Kang Jianfei looked at the watch and said that this watch was a Rolex sent to Pan Disheng for an advertisement, and it was the only famous brand on Kang Jianfei.
Qi Bo said: "I won't go, there are other things in the afternoon." ”
Kang Jianfei said with a smile: "Then I'll invite Miss Pan, it's a chat to express my gratitude." ”
Pan Yingzi also smiled: "Mr. Kang is polite, you are still the first director who is willing to ask me to film after my comeback, and I haven't had time to stammer." ”
