Chapter 136: Facial Cleanser
Sitting at the wine table, seeing the filmmaker pointing fingers and scolding Fang Xuan, Ma Yudong felt very sad.
The audience of mainland TV dramas is very pitiful, they actually have no choice power, it is better to say that it is the market choice, it is better to say that it is the TV station's film buyers.
Many film buyers visited the class, and the crew wanted to receive and watch the film and invite them to dinner, and after they came, they asked the leading actors in the group to accompany them to eat and chat.
If it is a female filmmaker, then the actress should not be accompanied, and the longer the good-looking actress, the less you want.
If it's a male filmmaker, then the handsome actor doesn't need to go, but the one who is especially good at drinking doesn't count.
If the actors are all powerful, they can only let the good-looking assistant director, art assistant, and makeup assistant wash and watch the film with the leader, and accompany the leader to eat.
The reality is that this is the case.
Although he was in this circle and enjoyed the benefits brought to him by the circle, Ma Yudong was deeply disgusted, and he almost didn't have a good face during the whole process.
Not only is he disgusted, but so is Lao Hu and Hao Jianhua beside him.
But they are not Ma Yudong, they are more focused on TV dramas, and TV series can't avoid this link.
They didn't dare to show each other's faces.
Equally annoying, there are three women who return to the hotel bored because they lost three men.
The blind sister couldn't sit still in her room and ran to Yang Mimi's room.
Watching the clock pass minute by minute, she was restless and kept going to the window to peek down.
Why hasn't the uncle come back yet?
Was it flipped up?
Yang Mimi took off her makeup and washed her face, "You don't have to worry too much, with Sister K following, Hu Ge will not suffer." ”
And what about her uncle?
Yang Mimi washed her face, put on a mask, and looked at her with a smile, "Are you stupid?" Your uncle is mixed in the film industry, what if he offends the film buyer? Can you still ban Brother Dong? ”
Having said that, the blind sister still couldn't stop worrying.
The blind sister returned to her room and took out her mobile phone.
After thinking about it, I still eliminated the words on it.
After all, there will be no shortage of such things in the future, especially the blind sister who specializes in TV dramas, and she will definitely participate in this kind of dinner.
Case.
She empathized with herself, she would definitely not do those messy things, so she was willing to trust her uncle.
took off her hair cover, and the blind sister was lying on the bed with her hair scattered.
It's one thing to believe, but her mind is still cranky!
Will her uncle be taken by the old woman and take it to the hotel, this... That one... Crackling...
Ma Yudong: Don't come here...
Old Woman: Boom... You scream, no one will come if you cut your throat!
But if you replace this with Uncle and Lao Hu?
The blind sister lay on the bed, but there was no trace of sleepiness, and there was a faint sound of sucking saliva.
I don't know how long later, there was a sound of the door opening next door.
The blind sister ran off the ground, stepped on her slippers, and opened the door, it was Ma Yudong and the others who came back.
Hu Ge and the others were tired, but when they saw the blind sister come out, they still kept smiling, "Master, I can successfully escort the master back, and I will leave the rest to you." ”
Did Ma Yudong say that he was a Tang monk?
One punch Tang Seng is about the same.
Senior Brother Sha: Master, Senior Brother has been captured by a monster!
The blind sister had no intention of taking care of it, waved her hand and told them to get out, and she came to Ma Yudong with an expressionless face.
Ma Yudong was full of alcohol, and his tongue was a little straight, "What are you going to do?" ”
The blind sister glared, pushed him into the door, and then walked in and closed the door with her heels.
"What the hell are you going to do, this big night." Ma Yudong asked the blind sister behind him, but the blind sister was still silent.
It's just that he keeps pushing him forward.
When she reached the side of the bed, she suddenly jumped on top of him and pressed him down on the bed from behind.
Then he rode on his waist and looked down to carefully inspect his neckline.
Ma Yudong was depressed by her action, "What are you looking for?" Looking for lice? ”
The blind sister didn't raise her head, her eyes were like torches, "I'm looking for lipstick marks." ”
“…… You're looking for it, you're looking for it in your own clothes, what are you looking for me here? ”
The blind sister's words were very vigorous, "I'm looking to see if you, uncle, have been insulted by that middle-aged and elderly woman." ”
Dry!
Ma Yudong was laughed at angrily.
Just a TV series, as for it?
Also unspoken rules,!
He even dared to refuse Han Sanye's invitation, and he was afraid of this little film buyer?
Ma Yudong grabbed her with his backhand, "Get off me." ”
The blind sister was shy, this uncle is inferior!
is obviously drunk and not honest, and if she has to shake hands with her, then she will fulfill him~
Ma Yudong: ...... This stinky shameless!
Ma Yudong didn't bother to move, he was not afraid of the shadow, "Then you can help me press my shoulder." ”
The blind sister is quite obedient, or she has fantasized about this scene countless times in her mind.
A small but warm home, she and her uncle are in their own home.
Two people sit together on the couch and watch TV.
The uncle was tired and lay on her lap, she massaged her head and made facial cleanser ...
Ma Yudong said that it was a dream, don't think about it, it is impossible in this life.
The blind sister pursed her lips and looked down, she also has a hard work! "Uncle, what are you talking about at the wine party?"
Ma Yudong was indeed a little tired, coupled with his disgust for the old woman when he drank, he was physically and mentally exhausted, "I just drank with that woman, and I didn't do anything else." ”
Ahh The blind sister believed him a little, after all, the uncle only had her smell.
She wanted to ask something more, but found that Ma Yudong had fallen asleep on his stomach.
This stinky uncle!
The blind sister did not leave immediately, but continued to massage him until her hands were so sore that she couldn't lift them, and then she got off him.
Bring the door from the inside, "Good night, stupid uncle." ”
As soon as I went out, I found Sister K standing outside the door watching her.
The blind sister was startled, "K, Sister K, what are you doing, people are scary and will scare people to death!" ”
Sister K glanced at her up and down and breathed a sigh of relief, "Of course I'm waiting for you, I haven't slept in a room with you for a long time, and I will live with you in the future." ”
Yes? Don't!!
………
In the next few days, Ma Yudong followed "Sword and Fairy III" to run around, and ran to several provinces and cities in a week.
And in an office in Henan.
Lu Weiguo walked into the office quickly, still holding a script "Not for Fun" in his hand.
smashed the script on the table and said to Mr. Zhu behind the desk, "Are you kidding me?!" ”
Mr. Zhu glanced at the script, walked out of the desk, and personally made him a cup of tea, "Old Lu, why are you so angry?" ”
In the scorching July, even though the room was air-conditioned, Lu Weiguo was still full of anger, "Don't come to this set, what is this thing you gave me called, this is also called a script?" ”
"That's not a script, is it?"
Lu Weiguo clasped his hands to his chest, whoever he loved, he wouldn't shoot this thing.
Commerce is not commerce, literature and art are not literature and art, and it is not even a chicken rib.
Mr. Zhu saw that he didn't drink tea, but drank it himself, and said to him calmly: "This drama can only be filmed by Lao Lu, and I don't feel at ease when others shoot it." ”
Lu Weiguo sneered, "Don't bring me a high hat, I can't shoot anyway, it's the first time I've seen a play that requires all the directors to use actors from one province or region, isn't it a trouble!" ”
"You're going to show this drama to the locals, not going to show it nationwide, are you?"
Mr. Zhu 'suddenly realized', "It turns out that you are angry because of this." ”
Nonsense!
Lu Weiguo is also a director anyway, which director have you ever seen filming for only one province in the end?
What a shame!
If he really shoots this drama like this, then he won't have to mix in the director world in the future, and no one can afford him.
Mr. Zhu explained the reason with a smile: the film is based on the real case of Xuchang farmers making movies.
Therefore, the above requirements are all local actors, and the characters in the film speak the Henan dialect.
Moreover, the film must be local from the main creative staff, shooting unit to the cinema line, and the production, supply and marketing are one-stop!
"Don't you think it's challenging?"
Indeed, as he said, the play is indeed full of challenges.
So Lu Weiguo stood up and patted his pants, "Then I admit defeat, you can invite another Gao Ming, and another director." ”
He turned around and mocked, "Or you don't need to hire a director at all, you can find a local screenwriter to direct this play." ”
This is an insult to his identity as a director!
Seeing that he didn't eat oil and salt, Mr. Zhu stood up and grabbed the old colleague, "Okay, okay, then what do you say." ”
Lu Weiguo stretched his brows at this time, "Is this script impossible to change?" ”
"yes, I can't change it." Mr. Zhu's answer was unusually firm.
Lu Weiguo nodded, he understood, since the script could not be changed, then he had to start from the actor's side.
It is absolutely impossible to use only locals.
This...... Mr. Zhu hesitated.
Lu Weiguo is sitting there, anyway, this is his bottom line, if you agree, you will shoot, and if you don't agree with whomever you like.
Seeing this, Mr. Zhu could only come to the desk, pick up the landline and make a call.
A few minutes later, "Okay, Lao Lu, you have won, and the investor has agreed." ”
"But the investor also has a requirement, the main actors don't need to be local, but they speak the local dialect."
Dialect? Isn't that still the same thing!
Lu Weiguo said, why is it not easy for people to bully, he is easy to bully? Just pick a pick and leave.
Mr. Zhu hurriedly stopped in front of this old colleague, and a few pointed at his nose and scolded: "Are you stupid?" What about dialects? ”
"Look at Director Ning Hao, all dialects are used in a play, and people don't still become the fourth director with a domestic entertainment box office exceeding 100 million, why can't you?"
Murder and heart.
Who doesn't envy Ning Hao, and who doesn't want to be like Ning Hao?
Lu Weiguo gritted his teeth and was ruthless, "Then how much do you invest in this drama for me?" ”
Mr. Zhu stretched out two fingers, one for one and the other for two.
12 million, Lu Weiguo muttered, although this investment is a little low, it is okay.
Mr. Zhu shook his head and re-compared the number.
Lu Weiguo looked at him in disbelief, "Don't tell me it's 1.2 million?!" ”
Mr. Zhu slapped his hand, "Lao Lu, you are really smart." ”
Lu Weiguo smiled, this time he won't take it back, whoever arranges for it to shoot it.
Do you still want him to be Ning Hao?
Then why don't you take a look at how much money China Film invested in Ning Hao? People invest 20 million alone, and you give him 1.2 million...
"Old colleague, you can't die without help." This is also the reason why he had to find Lu Weiguo to direct this play, the investment is so low that he is embarrassed to open this mouth with others.
Lu Weiguo wrote the number of 1.2 million on the paper, pointed to this number and asked, "Tell me, who can I find for this money?" ”
If you don't say anything else, you can't even go to Hengdian Film and Television City.
"What are you going to? Just shoot here in our place, I have already said hello to people, as long as it is your Lao Lu's crew, the local people will give you the green light, you can shoot how you want, and the local people will cooperate with you unconditionally. ”
Lu Weiguo smiled angrily, "Good guy, are you waiting for me here?" ”
Lu Weiguo leaned back, he didn't even look at the script, the key was on the script, "Then you tell me, which actor do you want me to invite over for this investment?" But any actor with a name, a surname and a doorway will not be interested in this investment. ”
Mr. Zhu stopped talking.
This is true, but anyone who has some achievements will definitely not look down on this investment.
After hesitating for a moment, Mr. Zhu called the boss of the film and television drama he knew.
The other party was very polite when he received the call, but after learning of his request, all of them refused without exception.
The investment of a drama is 1.2 million, and after removing various expenses, it will not exceed 400,000 to 500,000 yuan for the actors.
is digging out some group performances and supporting roles, the protagonist of a play may not even get 150,000, who will accompany you to play here?!
Seeing that Mr. Zhu was rejected by various people, Lu Weiguo sneered and said cool words on the side, "How about it, I'll tell you that this investment is impossible, otherwise you add more, I will definitely find you a good actor." ”
Mr. Zhu said angrily: "What to add, just give me such a task above, what can I do?" I'll smash the pot and sell iron to support you to film!? ”
He continued to call, "Don't worry, I will designate you to find a good actor who can afford the box office." ”
Lu Weiguo poured a cup of tea, and handed it to him, "Okay, then I expect you to find me such an actor." ”
Cut!
It would be nice if Lu Weiguo was replaced by Ning Hao, and the original investment of more than 5 million in "Crazy Stone" would have been exchanged for a return of more than 20 million.
Wait a minute......
Ning Hao, "Crazy Stone", "Crazy Racing", actor ...... What did Mr. Zhu remember?
I turned on the computer and checked, made a few more calls, and finally showed a satisfied smile, "Lao Lu, I found an actor for you!" ”
"Who!?"
Mr. Zhu called and smiled, "If it were someone else, I might not be sure, but this person definitely meets the requirements of the two of us." ”
"Not only can he speak dialects, but he can also afford the box office, the most important thing is that his salary is not high, and the other party really needs a leading actor to establish his status and identity."
The more Lu Weiguo listened, the more curious he became, who is it?
Mr. Zhu didn't pay attention to him, but said to the other end of the phone: "Hey, is it the starry Manager Lu Zheng?" ”
"Yes, it's me, who are you?"
"I am from a certain company, and I want to invite Ma Yudong to play the leading role in a play."
This is a sleepy pillow, Lu Zheng was still worried about how to find a protagonist for Ma Yudong, but he didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to send it to the door.
After chatting a few words, Lu Zheng handed over Ma Yudong's phone to him, and asked Mr. Zhu to talk to Ma Yudong in person, he couldn't be Ma Yudong's master.
Lu Zheng is tired...
There are two artists in this company, one is the second lady, and the other is sent by the eldest lady...
No one can afford to mess with him, and he lives like a grandson as a manager.
