Chapter 163: Wu Jing's request, recommend the assistant director!
Under the lawyer's narration, Wu Jing repeatedly confirmed that there was no problem with the terms of the contract, and finally picked up a pen and signed his name.
"Happy cooperation, I hope you can form a crew as soon as possible!"
"Happy cooperation, I will!"
After a simple greeting, Wu Jing left the office with the contract.
"I'll send him!"
After speaking, Lin Shu also walked out.
And Lin Ruxue, who stayed in the office, didn't know what to think about with the contract.
Coming to the window, she murmured:
"Although military movies are not very marketable, Lin Shu is so optimistic about "Wolf Warrior", the box office should not be too low."
"One two or three hundred million is about the same!"
According to the investment, a total of 80 million yuan of investment can be repaid at the box office with three times the investment.
Lin Ruxue didn't think that the box office of this movie would be high, on the one hand, Wu Jing was just a newcomer in terms of director.
On the other hand, in the current film market, military themes are not destined to be too popular.
But she didn't want to make money with this movie, as long as she didn't lose money.
Under the building
Wu Jing, who has just walked out of the "cross-era", is still very uncalm at the moment.
Before coming to Lin Shu, he didn't have much hope at all.
He felt that as long as Lin Ruxue was not stupid, he should not invest too much money in his movies.
But what I didn't expect was that the investment far exceeded expectations.
He only needs to assemble the crew and start making movies directly.
Thinking of this, he looked at Lin Shu's eyes and couldn't help but feel a trace of gratitude.
didn't say anything, just reached out and patted Lin Shu's shoulder.
"Don't make this show! When are you going to go back? ”
Lin Shu slapped his hand away, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and handed it over.
Wu Jing took the cigarette and muttered while lighting the fire: "I'll go back tomorrow." ”
"In such a hurry? I was going to take you to have a good time! ”
There is still a lot of time before November, and during this time, he happens to be free to accompany Wu Jing to play in the magic capital.
But I didn't expect that after getting the investment, Wu Jing would be so urgent.
But Lin Shu can also understand.
For this movie, Wu Jing has been preparing for nearly two years, and even went to the special forces.
"I'll talk about it when I'm done!" Wu Jing waved his hand absently.
Immediately afterwards, he continued: "By the way, didn't you work as an actor in Hengdian before? Is there a better crew, introduce it to me, especially an assistant director to help me check it. ”
Because he didn't get the investment, Wu Jing never thought about the crew.
Even if the crew is well organized, it is still difficult for a smart woman to cook without rice without money.
And now, he has left his original company, and he also needs to contact himself in the preparation of the crew.
Remembering that Lin Shu had mixed in Hengdian before, he should know a lot of people, and if he has a good team, he can use it directly.
Lin Shu thought for a while: "When do you want it?" ”
"Of course, the sooner the better!" Wu Jing blurted out.
"Okay, I really met a good director in Hengdian before, I'll call you later and ask him if he's free!"
"I agree with your vision, since you think it's okay, when the time comes, you can ask him to contact me directly, and people from other aspects will also help me find it, preferably the kind that can be used directly." Wu Jing smiled trustingly.
In his opinion, Lin Shu's vision is definitely better than his own.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken a year to grow from an unknown actor to a current actor.
"Okay, let's have a meal first!"
After having dinner with Wu Jing in a good restaurant, Lin Shu returned to the company again.
Hengdian!
Ming and Qing Dynasty palaces!
In one of the crews, a man in a thin jacket and a black cap is sitting in front of a monitor holding a pager.
"The one in the middle in yellow, stand a little to the side."
"Don't move the table, that's all!"
……
Just as he was directing the camera, the mobile phone that was placed aside suddenly rang.
Looking at the name displayed on his phone, his expression was very stunned.
Picking up his phone, he pressed the connect button with a hint of excitement.
"Director Zhou, what have you been doing lately!"
Listening to the voice on the other end of the phone, he smiled and said, "Of course I'm filming a TV series!" ”
"That's right...... I don't know if Director Zhou will have time next month? ”
"Next month?"
"Yes!"
"Now that this drama can be filmed this month, do you have any job looking for me?"
Speaking of which, if he still can't figure it out, he doesn't need to mix in this circle.
"Hmm...... That's right, I have a friend who is going to make a movie next month, and he has invested almost 80 million, and he needs a capable assistant director to help him check it, don't I think of you? ”
The caller was naturally Lin Shu, and the person who answered the phone was none other than Zhou Chongguang, who introduced him to the crew when Lin Shu was filming "Embroidered Spring Knife".
Seeing that Zhou Chongguang didn't speak for a long time, Lin Shu thought that he didn't want to answer.
Sighing softly, he shook his head and said, "If it's inconvenient, then it's ......"
"Of course you do, will you start filming next month?" Zhou Chongguang swallowed.
Although he said that he was an assistant director, he invested 80 million in the film.
Like this kind of big-budget movie, he has been making movies for so many years, and he has never participated in it.
If you can participate, with such a resume, you can go up a big level in the future to find him to make a movie.
"Yes, if you have a crew, it's better, and he needs it too."
"Okay, okay, then I'll contact you after I finish filming this movie!"
"No...... That's fine, too! ”
Lin Shu originally wanted him to contact Wu Jing directly, but after thinking about it, he still dismissed this idea.
It's not that I can't believe Wu Jing, but there are some details, and I have to talk to Zhou Chongguang.
The movie "Wolf Warrior" has a part of his investment.
If it is because of Wu Jing's character, if something happens, it will not be a big loss when the time comes.
And the reason why he called Zhou Chongguang was that his ability was really good, and he had helped him before.
The second is that his personality is relatively calm, which just complements Wu Jing.
"Let's say that first."
"Hmmm! You get busy first, I'll send you the information, and you can take a look at it when you have time. ”
After hanging up the phone, Lin Shu immediately sent some basic information.
After reading the information, Zhou Chongguang's face turned red with excitement at the moment.
After filming "Embroidered Spring Knife" last time, he originally thought that he had been able to enter the sight of some people.
But he found that he hadn't participated in big productions, and he still couldn't get into the eyes of those entertainment companies.
Although Wu Jing is only a newcomer in the directing industry, once he participates, his future development will definitely be much better than now.
And the most exciting thing is that if the film is finally finished to satisfy the "cross-generation", there is still a chance to join it.
For a small director like him, wanting to enter a large company like "Cross-Era" is tantamount to a fool's dream.
Zhou Chongguang is capable and can make movies, but this does not mean that he does not need a platform.
No matter how good you are at making a movie, it will not help if you don't have a script and investment.
And "cross-era" is such a platform for him to realize his psychological ambitions now.
For a while, Zhou Chongguang was as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.
It's not a pie.
It can be regarded as a promise from Lin Shu to Zhou Chongguang.
This is not a loss for Lin Shu, but Zhou Chongguang needs such a platform.
And maybe...... And bring him some surprises.
In an apartment not far from the location of Chow's crew!
A middle-aged man was lying on the bed looking at the message on his phone, and next to him, there was a woman who was still charming.
"If you want me to say, that Lin Shu just forgot about you!"
"Otherwise, if you are pulled casually, it will not be better than what you are doing now?"
"Look at what you look like now, after so many years, you're still a small group leader."
The man is none other than Zhao Hai, the group leader whom Lin Shu met in the crew before.
And lying next to him is his wife, who used to be a small group performance under his hands.
Her chattering words made Zhao Hai very depressed.
"I don't allow you to say that about Lin Shu, he is not a person who doesn't miss old feelings!"
"Don't miss the old love? I used to remember that you also had a group performer under your hand, who sent things home every once in a while, and later became a third-tier actor, did you help you any time?
If you want me to see that those people are all like birds, who wants to mention the dirtiness of the past! ”
His wife's words deeply stung Zhao Hai.
In the past, he met an actor in the crew, and he always shouted "brother" and "group leader" when he had nothing to do, but since he became a special actor, his relationship with him has gradually deteriorated.
Later, the group performance was mixed with third-tier artists.
At the instigation of his wife, he mustered up the courage to do something with him, but was severely humiliated by the other party.
And this is also the reason why he did not take the initiative to find Lin Shu.
He didn't want to do it again.
"I was so blind when I followed you!" After choking on a cold word, his wife lifted the cup and walked silently to the kitchen.
Immediately after, there was a burst of sobbing.
Listening to his wife's crying, Zhao Hai was in a very complicated mood.
Looking at the name on the address book, he hesitated several times but still didn't type.
Picking up the cigarette that had been placed at the bedside, he walked to the balcony and closed the door with his hand.
Feeling the breeze that gradually cooled down, he smoked one bite after another.
He felt that he was probably sick and couldn't sleep......
At the right time!
The cell phone in the room rang suddenly, and his wife heard the phone ringing, wiped her tears, and walked to the bedside.
Just looking at the name displayed on it, she was stunned for a while.
"Zhao Hai, hurry up, it's Lin Shu's call!" She rushed to the balcony desperately.
"Ahh What do you say! ”
The wife pointed to the screen, and her voice trembled: "Lin Shu called you!" ”
"Oooh! Good! ”
Zhao Hai casually threw the cigarette butt into the flower pot, and then took the mobile phone from his wife's hand.
"Lin Shu...... How could you call me at this time! ”
"You say...... You want me to work as a field clerk on the set? ”
"What kind of movie?"
"This can't work, where did I care about such a big crew!"
"Good, good!"
"I ...... Thank you here. ”
"In the future, Hengdian, you must come to my place for dinner, your sister-in-law's skills are good!"
……
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Hai had a clear smile on his face, but tears flowed unconsciously.
"What's wrong? What did Lin Shu tell you? His wife looked at him eagerly, "You have something to say!" ”
After adjusting his breathing, Zhao Hai said excitedly: "Lin Shu called me just now!" ”
"I know this, you say the point! Death in a hurry! ”
"Lin Shu asked me to go to a crew to do business on the spot!"
"Fieldwork! He still has a bit of a conscience, much better than those white-eyed wolves before! Although Zhao Hai's wife was a little ruthless, she also had a smile on her face.
"You know what, this movie has invested 80 million!" Zhao Hai said with some displeasure.
"What do you say! Eighty million!
! ”
Listening to his wife's unconsciously raised voice, Zhao Hai didn't know how happy he was.
"Then did Lin Shu say how much money you can make!"
"Can you withdraw money without moving?" Seeing that his wife wanted to move out of the old rhetoric again, he hurriedly added: "The income of a big-budget movie with an investment of 80 million yuan is at least three to five times higher than now!"
And in the future, I will be able to follow Director Zhou, and I will no longer have to continue to make this hard-earned money in Hengdian. ”
"This ...... Zhao Hai, are you hungry? I'll give you the following, okay! ”
The delicate tone made Zhao Hai a little unaccustomed for a while.
But I'm just a little hungry, but I can eat a little.
A few minutes later!
Zhao Hai slumped down on the bed again.
The sound of "tinkling" in the kitchen sounded like a perfect piece of music to his ears.
Breathing in the aroma of green onions in the air, he was not only a little embarrassed.
I think when I first met Lin Shu, he was still a very ignorant small group performer, and there were still many things to ask him for help.
But now, not only has he become a big star, but he has also changed his future.
"Noodles are coming! I'll feed you! ”
"Good!"
Zhao Hai wanted to lie on the bed and eat, but he didn't know how to think of such a movie plot, and quickly sat up again.
At this moment, Lin Shu also put down his mobile phone and drank saliva.
In the past half hour or so, he called many people who had helped him in Hengdian before.
Because he had been filming before, if Wu Jing hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten about these people.
Just take advantage of this opportunity to pull them as much as possible.
Maybe it's just a trivial thing for him, but for some, it can be life-changing.
Besides, if it wasn't for them at the beginning, there would be no Lin Shu now.
After handling the crew's affairs, he took the company's car and returned to the villa.
