Chapter 483: The Super Project Sent to the Door - 'Thai Embarrassment'
Huang Bo and Ning Hao came to talk about the script, after all, Wu Hu is the screenwriter of this play.
As a result, he, the screenwriter, didn't talk to the director and the leading actor about the script, and the only person he talked to was the second male Lao Hu.
But Wu Hu felt that although he was a screenwriter, he was just writing an outline, and the content was filled in by Lao Bai and several screenwriters in the screenwriting department, so there was no need for him to come forward at all.
But they were willing to come over and talk to him, and Wu Hu naturally wouldn't refuse. The whole play revolves around the reversal of the identities of the male protagonist and the second male, as long as you can grasp the male protagonist pretending to be more than this.
The male protagonist pretends to be a real cow ratio unintentionally, and the male second pretend ratio is a purposeful bluff, a fake cow ratio, and the jokes also revolve around these.
With Huang Bo's acting skills, Wu Hu is not worried about him playing the male lead, but he is worried about Lao Hu's second male lead. After all, Lao Hu has no problem acting in TV series, acting in movies, he is a little worried that Lao Hu will use too much force, which will make people feel like a play.
Hearing Wu Hu say this, Lao Hu, who was still full of confidence in himself, suddenly felt a little weak. Although he has not made movies, there are almost no high-grossing movies. In other words, he didn't prove himself in terms of movies.
And Xu Guangtou is the assistant director of this play, and Ning Hao, as the director, still needs to promote his own film at that time, so he can only find someone to take over for a while.
So Xu Guangtou was pulled by Ning Hao to help, and it happened that Xu Guangtou also had the idea of being a director by himself, and he wanted to make a film.
Hearing Xu Guangtou say that he chased Huang Bo to the crew of "Lucky Key", Wu Hu couldn't help laughing, it is estimated that Xu Guangtou wanted to prostitute Huang Bo for nothing.
Because the movie Xu Guangtou wants to make should be the 'Thai embarrassment'.
In another time and space, the drama 'Thai Embarrassment' will be released at the end of the year, and at the same time broke many mark records and won the box office of 1.2 billion, which is a typical representative of the small knife and saw the big tree.
After all, the cost of its production is said to be only 30 million.
And Huang Bo is said to have starred in this drama with zero pay, although there will definitely be bonus compensation afterwards, but if this drama hits the street, it will really be pure help.
But now, Huang Bo was called by Han Sanye early to star in "Lucky Key", Xu Guangtou didn't have the courage to let Huang Bo push off this play, after all, this is a kind of shadow-led play.
In the film circle of the flower planter, if you dare to offend the film, then you basically don't have to mix.
In addition, there is New World Media, which they dare not easily offend.
Although the media volume of New World Communication is not large, who told this company to have an international superstar who is known for his careful eye as the boss?
Don't look at Wu Hu's good conversation with his fans, or entertainment reporters, but everyone saw his revenge in that survival show at the beginning.
In addition, when the music list ceremony offended Wu Hu, Wu Hu turned around and threw himself into Yili's arms, and refused to participate in the subsequent event like Milk Cha Lun, which also made people feel that Wu Hu was definitely not the kind of person who was easy to talk to.
In the end, Wu Hu and Spicy Eagle released an album in the same month, and beat Spicy Eagle so much that he didn't even want to go out of the door, which made people feel that this guy was simply going to repay him.
However, because there are many people who hate Spicy Eagle, Spicy Eagle was beaten, which made many people applaud, and even many netizens directly praised Wu Hu for doing a good job.
Therefore, Xu Guangtou can only continue to grind behind Huang Bo, let Huang Bo shoot "Lucky Key" first, and then take the opportunity to continue to master his directing skills.
Speaking of this, Xu Guangtou took the opportunity to tell the story of Thailand's embarrassment. Then asked Wu Hu, "What does Mr. Wu think of this story?"
"Call me Fat Tiger! You're welcome. The story is pretty good, but this kind of comedy movie has to look at the actors' performances in the end. Compared with other genres, comedy actors need acting skills the most, because if you don't pay attention to it, funny will turn into embarrassing laughter, which is simply a disaster. But it's the hardest thing for a comedian to win major film awards."
Huang Bo slapped his thigh and said, "Mr. Wu, what you said is so right! I'll replace wine with tea, and I'll toast you!"
Wu Hu smiled: "If you want to drink, drink again at night!"
Hearing Wu Hu's words, Wolf Warrior Jing grinned.
Everyone knows that Wu Hu is massive, and Huang Bo is no exception, and hurriedly said: "Don't be in a hurry, let's drink tea first, sing tea first"
Xu Guangtou said: "I have already negotiated with Wang Baobao, he will act, plus myself, in the end I want to ask Lao Huang to come out, he doesn't want to act."
Huang Bo complained, "Isn't it like I don't have a schedule! And I think that the drama "Lucky Key" must be more enjoyable than yours, and I haven't played this kind of role yet!"
"I didn't tell you to push Lucky Key away! I just hope that after you finish this play, you will hurry up and play my one, and I am still preparing to release it in November!"
Wolf Warrior Jing smiled and said: "That's a bit rushed, it's almost April now, and when the filming of "Lucky Key" is finished, it is estimated that it will be in June or July, and I will immediately take over the filming of your part, and then come for two or three months, it is estimated that the filming will be in September, or even October, why not put more than a month of post-production and publicity in the New Year's file or the New Year's file?"
Xu Guangtou shook his head and said: "These two schedules are more competitive, "1942", "The King's Feast", "Zodiac", and "Big Shanghai" are all blockbusters. If we put the schedule in the middle of these blockbusters, it won't be an egg hitting a stone! By then, I guess we will be crushed to the ground."
Hearing Xu Guangtou's words, everyone couldn't help laughing, but in addition to laughing, they couldn't help but feel a little helpless, it was really scary!
Let's see who led them! Cannon Gangzi, Big Brother Cheng, Fat Zijing, the king of bad movies.... Whichever one is pulled out, it is the king of the field of commercial films.
It's no wonder that Xu Guangtou is not confident in the face of these people, it is indeed a bit bluffing!
I believe that even if Wu Hu tells him now that his film will break the record, it is estimated that everyone will only think that Wu Hu is joking and comforting Xu Guangtou.
As he spoke, Xu looked at Wu Hu with a bald head, "Mr. Wu, are you New World Media interested in investing in my movie?" It doesn't take much, 50 or 40 million is enough."
Hearing this, Wu Hu couldn't help but be stunned, not because he was amazed at Xu Guangtou's lion's big mouth, but because he was surprised that he hadn't even pulled the investment?
In another time and space, it is said that he went to the boss of Guang Limited, Lao Wang, to invest, and as soon as Lao Wang heard his story, he gave him an investment of 25 million on the spot.
Could it be that Xu Guangtou hasn't gone to invest in the light limit Lao Wang now? As for Xu Guangtou's lion's big mouth, the main reason is that the investment in this drama in another time and space is only 30 million, but now he actually opens his mouth to 40 million.
And just now, it seems that I wanted to say 50 million at the beginning, and I changed my words temporarily, which makes people feel like 'you are fooling people'.
However, thinking that Wang Baobao's popularity is higher than that of another time and space, it is almost impossible to give him a salary of two million, and it is almost impossible to take five million.
Coupled with Huang Bo's salary, it is estimated that if he can get an investment of 40 million, Xu Guangtou will not pester Huang Bo to let him star with zero pay.
With Huang Bo and Wang Baobao starring together, it is normal for the investment to be higher. In another time and space, Wang Baobao didn't seem to have cooperated with Xu Guangtou anymore after being embarrassed in Thailand.
Many people think that it is because Xu Guangtou's salary for Wang Baobao is too low, and he took two million at the friendship price, but the box office exploded, and he didn't give any rewards.
He made a lot of money, but Wang Baobao only took a pitiful two million. It's really chilling to think about, I really eat meat by myself and let others drink soup!
If Wang Baobao is only worth two million, there is nothing to say, but people obviously take the friendship price, but in the end they don't make up for this friendship, how can they cooperate in the future!
As for Xu Guangtou, what he meant seemed to be that Wang Baobao's acting skills were too good and it was easy to steal his limelight, so he didn't want to cooperate with him.
For this reason, Wu Hu thinks it's okay to listen to it, who doesn't want the actors he found to be able to give full play to their acting skills and make the film of higher quality?
Wu Hu was puzzled: "The box office of the previous 'Embarrassment' is also decent, can't you attract investment in this sequel?"
Xu Guangtou shook his head and said, "It's not a sequel, it's just that the story structure is similar, it's an upgraded version!" I've also gone looking for some
The company, even including Star Film and Television, they are either not very confident in my directing ability, or they dare not invest more. Only the boss of the light limit is willing to invest two and five million, and he is afraid that he will not be able to recover the cost if he has more."
Wu Hu smiled, "Then what name are you going to use for this movie?" If you continue to use "People in Embarrassment", the other party will definitely sue you. Even if you change your words and really fight a lawsuit, you will definitely not be able to win. Why don't you buy the rights and make a sequel?"
When Xu Guangtou heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and looked at Wu Hu strangely.
Ning Hao also coughed lightly, and looked at Wu Hu's eyes, which were also a little strange.
Wolf Warrior Jing smiled: "Fat Tiger, you haven't been in this business for a long time, in fact, many dramas are like this, everyone is not very aware of copyright, there are too many such things. Under normal circumstances, if there is no contradiction, everyone will choose to turn a blind eye. After all, no one knows if they will offend others next time because of the same problem."
Wu Hu smiled: "Then what if this movie accidentally gets a high box office, and the other party is red-eyed? Won't you be asking for trouble? Why don't you spend some money and ask for the copyright?"
"Mr. Wu is willing to invest?" Xu Guangtou asked again.
"It's okay to invest, but it's better to ask for the copyright, so as not to have to fight a lawsuit with them in the future." Wu Hu is colorful.
"Forty million?" Xu Guangtou asked with some uncertainty.
Wu Hu said with a smile: "How much to invest, when the time comes, make a budget, I feel that your 40 million is completely just open your mouth."
Everyone laughed when they heard this, but Xu Guangtou was not embarrassed, "Didn't I give Mr. Wu a preventive shot first!" lest you overspend too much, and you say I'll cheat you."
Wu Hu said again: "Have you agreed to the investment of the boss?"
Xu Guangtou nodded and said: "There are some verbal agreements, originally I wanted to get Lao Huang and then go to them for more investment, I also made a simple budget, plus Lao Huang's salary, at least about 35 million, this is not counting my actor salary and director salary, my idea is to convert my actor salary and director salary into the cost, and I will take a share." If this drama really hits the streets, I'll treat it as if these few months have been in vain."
Hearing this, Wu Hu knew why in another time and space, he could make a lot of money with this film, and it was really bold enough not to pay the director and the actor.
It is estimated that he is not completely unconfident in this movie, but he just didn't think it would be a big hit.
Wu Hu nodded and said, "Since there is a verbal agreement, then we can pull the light limit together, our New World Media accounts for sixty percent, and the remaining forty percent is for you to share with the light limit!"
"I've done enough, and I can't afford to do more!"
It is impossible to afford a few millions, and it is estimated that they are unwilling to pay more. As Hong Kong filmmakers often say, as a director, please don't use your own money to make movies.
"Okay! I'll tell Kang Zhi, and you can contact him then."
Kang Zhi has now gone to the Bald Eagle to study with the group, although New World Media only accounts for 30% of the investment in the movie "Shocking Demon Thieves", Kang Zhi is also one of the producers.
Wu Hu also wanted to take this opportunity to exercise him more.
However, it is impossible for Kang Zhi to stay on Bald Eagle's side for a long time, and he also needs to be responsible for some affairs of domestic companies.
The stall of New World Media is gradually expanding now, and Kang Zhi is also training his deputy, the driver and translator who was originally found from the Kimchi Peninsula, Xu Dong, a native of Northeast China, is Kang Zhi's current deputy, and he is in charge of the project of "The Fox Wife in the Mountain Village", Kang Zhi is the chief producer, and he is one of the producers.
In addition, although "Lucky Key" is dominated by a kind of film, New World Media also has 40% of the investment, and it also needs people to watch it, so as not to be stretched out indiscriminately.
Wu Hu didn't expect that Xu Guangtou followed Huang Bo and them, and actually sent them a project to New World Media, and it was a super profitable project.
Although he had to give some light limits, Wu Hu didn't think it was a big deal. After all, this project was originally 'snatched' from other people's light limits.
Besides, if he didn't divide the eggs
Cake, if the project explodes, the old Wang of the light limit is estimated to hate him to death, which is a proper revenge.
After all, there is already a verbal agreement between Xu Guangtou and Guang Liang Lao Wang. Although no one knows whether the project can make money or not, people don't care if you know it, anyway, the project was robbed in the end, and the beneficiary is you Wu Hu.
In Wu Hu's view, money is inexhaustible, and there is no need to form such a grudge with others.
The light limit is also a big business in the flower planting family, and as the boss of the boss, the energy will definitely not be small, and if you really want to engage him, it will not be too difficult.
Of course, everyone's butts are not too clean, and they know each other.
In the evening, Wu Hu cooked, made a table of delicacies for everyone, and then picked up the wine glass to fight the wine, directly picked N, and drank several people into wine Mengzi.
