Chapter 170: A poor crew with an investment of more than 100 million

"Vomit...... Grunt...... Phew......"

After a while, after the filming of this scene, Sun Ce's actor Tang Yi immediately threw down the "chicken legs" in his hand and ran out of the set to rinse his mouth.

Just now, in order to be realistic, Tang Yi not only stuffed the prop chicken leg into his mouth, but also chewed it a few times.

The camera is diagonally behind the two actors, and the shot is a medium shot, which does not show the details in the mouth; But Xu Zhen knelt opposite Tang Yi, but clearly saw that his mouth was full of foam, even his teeth were stained.

On the sidelines, the onlookers saw that Tang Yi was "eating" with relish, but Xu Zhen ignored it, and talked and laughed with him calmly, and they were almost crazy with laughter.

Fortunately, this group of people still has a bit of public morality, knowing that laughter will interfere with the shooting, and those who can hold back it can't help it, so they can't help but run outside the set to laugh.

After a while, there were many fewer people in the studio.

After a while, Tang Yi came back after rinsing his mouth, sat back on his collapse with bitterness and hatred, and said to Xu Zhen: "Gongjin, your ability to control your emotions is indeed quite strong. ”

"You didn't laugh at that situation just now, our brothers are really worthy of the crew."

Xu Zhen glanced at him sympathetically and said, "What's so ridiculous about this, it's Brother Bo Fu who has been wronged." ”

"Didn't you really eat it, did you? Do I need to go to the hospital? ”

Hearing him say this, Tang Yi's heart was sour, and he almost didn't really cry.

"This props group is too picky, isn't it? How much does a roast chicken cost? ”

Tang Yi glanced at the edamame in Xu Zhen's hand aggrievedly, and said, "Why are the beans real and the chickens fake?" How could I be so unlucky! ”

Xu Zhen said: "This edamame was not prepared by the crew, I bought it myself." ”

Tang Yi was stunned when he heard this: "You bought it?" ”

Xu Zhen nodded and said, "When I came here this morning, I found that the food on the table was all fake, so I felt a little bad. ”

"It's just occasions like feasting and ministers, this scene is just the two of us, we drink all the time, don't eat, and I always feel weird."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the south, saying, "When I came from the shopping street, I saw a small shop selling peanuts and edamame. ”

"When there were no peanuts in the Three Kingdoms, I bought three catties of edamame."

"Didn't the drama tell you?"

Tang Yi thought for a while and said, "Hey, listening to you say this, it seems that someone told me that beans can be eaten......

But as he spoke, his mind suddenly went astray, and he said, "You bought three catties?" Isn't there anything left? ”

"Quick, it just so happens that my brother's mouth is full of strange smells, so get it quickly!"

Xu Zhen then stood up from the straw mat and went to find the leftover edamame just now.

But he searched around the place where the edamame was kept, but he didn't see a single shadow.

Hey? Where's my edamame?

It can't be thrown away as garbage, right??

……

Off set.

Gao Bo, who played Sun Quan, squatted on the side of the road, propped up the plastic bag in his hand, and said generously: "You're welcome, you're welcome, those who see it have a share!" ”

The surrounding Jiangdong sages stepped forward with a smile, grabbed a large handful of edamame beans from the plastic bag in turn, and said with a smile: "Thank you Lord for giving you beans!" ”

Lu Su's actor Huo Dayu hesitantly grabbed a small handful and said, "Isn't it good for us to eat all?" After all, it is a prop for the crew. ”

Gao Bo pursed his lips and said, "Eat yours, it's just edamame, how much is it worth?" ”

"I don't care if I'm full of boxed lunches every day, and I won't be allowed to eat a few edamame?"

"Such a big crew, it's not embarrassing!"

“……”

……

"Ahh

At the same time, in a conference room temporarily set up by the crew of "Three Kingdoms", the chief producer Yang Ming sneezed, took out a tissue to wipe his nose, and said with a gloomy face: "I've only been out for a few days?" You've leaked all your money? ”

Yang Ming looked at the chief director Gao Zhen complainingly, and said: "Old Gao, I didn't say it, you kept saying that everything in Jiangdong was simple, and it didn't cost much, but in the end, where did you come to be simple?" ”

"I saw that your lunch box is simple, the props are simple, and the rest should be spent, it's not Jane!"

Gao Zhen didn't look at him, raised his eyes to look at the ceiling, and said: "It is said that the Three Kingdoms, the Three Kingdoms, the Wei Kingdom, and the Shu Kingdom are all so finely filmed, and when they go to the Wu Kingdom, they suddenly feel cold, which is not appropriate." ”

"You're telling me this now?" Yang Ming listened to him embarrassed to quibble, and said angrily, "Why didn't you say it when you built the Great Wall?" ”

"Why didn't you say it when you built the White Emperor City?"

"There was a meal in front of me, and in the end I was told that I couldn't save anywhere?"

Yang Ming said angrily: "According to your current shooting method, it won't take more than a month, and our crew will have to run out of food!" ”

"Do you think that the plot behind the Battle of Chibi doesn't need to be filmed?!"

Gao Zhen rolled his eyes and said, "Filming is still going to be filmed, it's nothing more than opening up sources and reducing expenditure." ”

"In the past, which of the old "Three Kingdoms" or the old "Journey to the West" was not halfway through the filming and ran out of money? Calm, normal, this shows that we keep improving, and it can be regarded as a tribute to the old version. ”

Yang Ming was so angry by Gao Jin's unreasonable quibbles.

He frowned and looked at the planner in his hand, and said, "Anyway, I'll give you another week at the end, and you have to find a way to solve the money problem for me!" ”

"Otherwise, if you want to add anything, I will never approve it!"

Gao Zhen patted his chest confidently and said, "Don't worry, I have my own opinions!" ”

……

Two hours later, the scheduling of the "Three Kingdoms" crew will end.

Gao Zhen held up his mobile phone, sneaked into a corner, and dialed a number.

"Doot-doo-"

"Hello? Daughter-in-law? ”

Soon, the phone was connected, Gao Jin's face was full of smiles, and he no longer looked high-spirited and confident, and said softly: "Daughter-in-law, discuss something with you?" ”

"I can't open the pot here, the rivers and lakes are in emergency, can you support me to get some silver? I'll pay you back when the money is in place for the crew in a few days. ”

On the other end of the phone, a middle-aged woman's voice said, "How much?" ”

Gao Zhen said tentatively: "Uh, 50...... No, no, no, 30, 30 is enough, I should be in a hurry, buy a boxed lunch to eat. ”

"Hahaha......" On the other side of the phone, the middle-aged woman leaned forward and closed her back with a smile, and said, "Hey, I said Lao Gao, you are such a big director, and you need 30 yuan to ask for money from your daughter-in-law?" ”

"You're too good at getting by, aren't you? I'll give you 100! Let you go to the restaurant! ”

When Gao Zhen heard this, he wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said cautiously: "No, daughter-in-law, it's not 30 yuan, it's 300,000 yuan." ”

"Our crew has been eating the lowest-grade box lunch recently, and I'm a little reluctant not to ......"

On the other end of the phone: "......"

Gao Zhen listened to the other side for a long time and asked, "Daughter-in-law?" ”

"Doodoo ......"

He was answered by a flurry of busy tones.

Gao Jin: "......"

……

The next day, Gao Jinhao said that he finally pulled out 300,000 yuan from his daughter-in-law and temporarily solved the problem of the crew's box lunch.

However, this is just a temporary emergency, and the financial problem of the "Three Kingdoms" crew cannot be solved by the director out of his own pocket.

And the funding gap of the crew is not hundreds of thousands, but tens of millions.

If it is only a few million less, Gao Zhen can still lick his face to pull a sponsorship and plug this hole;

However, once the scale reaches tens of millions, it is necessary to introduce other investors to make additional investments.

He pondered for a few days, and finally decided to lobby for TV stations and websites.

If any station is willing to send charcoal at this time, then when the TV series is launched, it will definitely be able to get the premiere rights.

This can be guaranteed.

Fortunately, the golden sign of "Three Kingdoms" is still quite loud, and a few days later, many satellite TV stations such as Blueberry Tai, Whirlwind Terrace, and Yingke Songtai have expressed their interest in "Three Kingdoms", and if the quality is guaranteed, you can consider investing.

After receiving this promise, Gao Jin's spirits were lifted and he immediately issued a first-level combat readiness mobilization to the various film crews who were filming, asking all the staff to cheer up and welcome the potential financiers to come and guide.

On the side of the Jiangdong Group, director Chu Xiaoxiong also got the news.

He summoned several main actors such as Xu Zhen, Gao Bo, and Huo Da overnight, and briefly explained the situation, hoping that everyone would adjust their state and go all out to shoot the next scenes.

The people from the TV station will come over one day, and your performance is likely to directly determine the subsequent financial situation of the crew.

Hearing this, several people looked at each other, and they all saw smiles in each other's eyes.

Bear down?

We're always giving it our all!

This is "Three Kingdoms", who dares to be perfunctory?

TV people, come and see. I've been filming in the film and television city for so long, I can't wait to find someone to taste how we shoot!
