Chapter 007: Everything is ready
Hengyu Media.
It is located in Xinyuan Road, Zhaoyang District, not far from Huayi Company.
There are many media and entertainment companies near Xinyuan Road, and the plate of the entertainment industry is still small, and there are not many talents.
On the eighteenth floor of Xinmao Building, Fang Ziheng rented a small half-floor here and officially entered the China Entertainment Film and Television Circle.
In order to formalize the company, Fang Ziheng can be regarded as bleeding heavily, and he has taken out a lot of money from his already not strong family foundation.
Fortunately, there are not many people in the company now, only twenty or thirty people, most of whom are senior brothers and brothers recruited by Fang Ziheng in the Beijing Film Studio.
Otherwise, the salaries of the employees alone will not be enough.
"Mr. Fang, the crew has completed preparations, and Deputy Director Wen arrived in Yudu yesterday with the film crew and props crew, and has already communicated with the police department about the filming request."
In the general manager's office, Fang Ziheng sat in the boss's chair, issuing expenditure bills and listening to reports.
After signing his name with a water-based black pen, Fang Ziheng raised his head and said to the woman in front of him: "Sister Lin, don't be so serious, you sit." ”
Concubine Lin, in her early thirties, dignified and elegant, with a plump figure.
She was born in Beijing Film Studio in her early years, and later went to the sea to join Huayi, and was dug up by Fang Ziheng half a month ago.
The major is production and co-ordination, and it belongs to the talents who specialize in film and television.
Concubine Lin was not polite, sat on the chair in front of the desk, and handed over a document: "The last female character has been found, Wang Ou, the image is very suitable." ”
Wang Ou?
Fang Ziheng whispered, took the document and looked at the photo that the character had stopped.
It turned out to be her.
Sister Lin's vision is very good, Wang Ou is indeed suitable for the unknown woman, who was loved by a stupid thief.
Just looking at the appearance, it reveals the temperament of tea words and tea language.
Not bad, not bad.
"Okay, just her, inform her to join the group the day after tomorrow." Fang Ziheng nodded and gave Concubine Lin an approving smile.
"Playing the role of Ma Xianyong, has Mr. Fang found it?"
Seeing that the little boss was satisfied, Concubine Lin smiled like a flower and took the initiative to ask about the No. 1 actor in the movie.
The reason why she jumped from Huayi to Hengyu was naturally not because of Nortel's relationship, but because Fang Ziheng gave too much.
She has carefully studied the script of the unknown person, and even if it will not be a big hit, she can make a small profit.
The boss personally directed and starred, with an excellent script and a suitable role, Hengyu's first shot will not fail in her hands.
"It has been determined that Yu Hewei is also an excellent actor, cheap and practical." Fang Ziheng smiled to himself and found out the information of Yu Hewei and gave it to Concubine Lin.
To be honest, he looked for the role of Ma Xianyong for several days, and finally chose Yu Hewei.
Among the drug hunters and circuit prosecutors, Lao Yu has both upright and ruffian performances, and the roles are in place, and there is no drama at all.
And the image is more suitable than Chen Jianbing, after all, Ma Xianyong has been an auxiliary policeman, and he has certain requirements for the actor's figure.
Looking at Yu Hewei's information, Concubine Lin nodded lightly.
In the past two days, she has also been looking for a suitable actor, and she has swept around twice to see Zhang Hanyu of Shanghuayi.
Now that the boss has a candidate, she naturally won't mention it.
After chatting about the preparation of the movie, Fang Ziheng changed his words: "By the way, Sister Lin, I asked you to buy the copyright of the four famous catches, how is the progress." ”
"I've been in touch with the writer, and Mr. Wen has agreed, that is..."
"What's it?"
Fang Ziheng frowned, looking at Concubine Lin who wanted to speak and stopped.
"Director Chen Jiashang on Hong Kong Island also took a fancy to "The Four Famous Catches" and proposed to cooperate in making a movie together."
"He's thinking beautifully."
Fang Ziheng sneered, leaned back into the soft boss's chair, and said, "Sister Lin, you and Wen Lao talk directly, we only need the film adaptation rights of "The Four Famous Catches", and it doesn't matter if the price is a little more expensive." ”
"As for the Chen family, he wants to spend his own money to buy it."
Fang Ziheng's tone was extremely firm, and he did not give face to the director of the Hong Kong circle at all.
Although the four famous catches are not big IPs, they are definitely top-notch in suspense martial arts.
The three movies released 12 years later, all of which were bought by the audience when they were so badly made, although there are star actors such as Liu Qianqian and Deng Chao, but the attraction of the IP of "The Four Famous Catches" cannot be denied.
Such a good subject matter was wasted by Chen Jiashang, and it hurts to think about it.
Hengyu won the film adaptation rights because he wanted to use the name of "The Four Famous Catches" to fill in an excellent and rigorous suspense plot.
As long as the cost and quality are well controlled, plus the name "Four Famous Catches", it can definitely attract the first wave of audiences.
Of course, there is some luck in making only one movie, and the box office wants to make a big profit.
But don't forget, "The Four Famous Catches" can be made into a series, the same as Di Renjie and Bao Qingtian.
When the time comes, it will be difficult to make a 123 series or not.
"Okay, I'll go back and contact Elder Wen."
Concubine Lin received instructions and got up to contact the writer Wen Lao.
..........
October 9th, 3 p.m.
Fang Ziheng and Concubine Lin flew to Yudu with the last team of crew.
The preliminary work of the crew of "Nobody" has been prepared, and filming will officially start tomorrow morning.
In a hotel in Yubei District, Fang Ziheng met the crew who arrived early.
The hotel is 3 star, neither high nor low, and affordable.
Fang Ziheng looked at it and asked, "Has the actor arrived?" ”
Wen Muye, the assistant director of the crew, beckoned everyone upstairs, and said as he walked: "It's here, only Deng Chao and Sun Li are missing, they just got on the plane." ”
Wen Muye is also the younger brother of Fang Ziheng, the director of Nortel's directing department, he first studied as a director in Northeast Literature and Art, and then was admitted to Nortel, and is in his third year this year.
Fang Ziheng brought him in as an assistant director, but he was very happy.
"How's the first scene going? Did the Yudu police agree to help? ”
"It's arranged, it's on a construction site three kilometers away, and the group performances are ready-made, 100 yuan a day, and the food is managed."
Wen Muye pushed the acting skills on the bridge of his nose, smiled and said: "The police didn't have any opinions after reading the script, they just asked to shoot them more powerfully." ”
It's good if it's okay.
The last scene is a big scene, and it is also the most important scene of the movie, and it must be helped by the police.
As for making the image of the police better, is this still a problem?
Fang Ziheng asked for specific details again, and finally patted Wen Muye's shoulder reassuringly.
The first time he made a major movie, it would be false to say that there was no pressure.
Although the crew of the unknown generation is small, it has all kinds of organs, and many things need him as a director.
From the actor's salary to the venue rental, he has to make a decision on everything.
In a conference room in the hotel, the actors who entered the group were already in place, Huang Bo, Baoqiang, Song Yi, and Yu Hewei all came, and greeted Fang Ziheng warmly.
Honestly, the nobody is definitely star-studded.
Huang Bo, Baoqiang, Deng Chao, and later generations are all actors with a box office of tens of billions.
Yu Hewei and Sun Li are also TV celebrities, and even Wang Ou and Song Yi are real film and television stars.
A movie with a cost of tens of millions can bring together so many stars, Fang Ziheng really wants to ask, who else?
Fang Ziheng has to thank this era, this era of normal salary.
In another five or six years, this amount of money will invite so many actors, and they want to eat fart.
Everyone sat down in the conference room, Fang Ziheng scattered a circle of cigarettes, and looked at Song Yi who lowered his head and played with his fingers with a smile.
"Song Yi, how is your role?"
