Chapter 115: Crew (3/4)

Jiang Wen...

The reputation of this time stinks!

Because of Chen Yifei.

To be precise, it's because of the movie "The Barber"...

Chen Yifei is a painter, and he is not good at making movies, so he asked Jiang Wen to help at a high price.

Jiang Wen received the money, and probably felt that Chen Yifei didn't know how to do it, just like a guide, like "Looking for a Gun"...

He thinks more that the script needs to be revised!

Chen Yifei is hard-tempered, and the two parted unhappily...

Of course, the movie "The Barber" has mixed reviews, and the current Douban score is 6.3 points.

Chen Yifei is a painter by background, a master of aesthetics, first-class tone and composition, and the lens language is exceptionally beautiful, but the sense of story is so bad.

In a sense, it also proves that the conflict between Jiang Wen and Chen Yifei on the script is not completely unreasonable.

But Jiang Wen is indeed very wavelike!

In the circle of pit people index, he shoots the top three - Wang Jiawei and the poetry master rank the top two...

The logic of film and television investment is different from the logic of creation.

Good work doesn't necessarily make money.

First, we must look at the ability to win the box office, second, we must look at the ability to save costs, and third, we must look at the ability to shorten the investment cycle.

This is the same as financial management, it must look at the rate of return, the investment period, and the proportion of management fees.

Jiang Wen is not good at these three things!

Before "Let the Bullets Fly", Jiang Wen filmed one film and lost one - it is said that when an investor came to Jiang Wen for the first time to inspect the set, the Mercedes-Benz team was surrounded by security guards. The last time I came to the set, I took a taxi by myself...

"The Aviator", according to estimates, can be filmed for almost 5 million, and if Jiang Wen comes, it will at least double!

If it's just doubled, it wouldn't be enough, if... More than ten times, the company may go bankrupt...

The conversation was hot, someone knocked on the door, and Chen Xi asked, "Who?" ”

"I..."

It's Shen Xudong's voice!

……

Taking the hot tea brewed by Chen Xi, Shen Xu took a sip to warm up his body, and then asked, "What are you talking about?" Why don't you sleep yet? ”

Gao Fenfen was surprised: "... How did you get here? ”

"I was thinking of waiting for dawn to come back, but after thinking about it, there was no need to wait another night, so I drove straight here..."

"You've been drinking?"

"Okay, I'm here with Zhao Xin, the car he drives!"

That's the case, Shen Xudong is ready for artistic discussion, as for who the object is, Gong Li is okay, Fan Jiuyi, he has no opinion...

As a result, a group of people rushed to the next one!

Shen Xudong was too lazy to rush to the scene and left.

Back in the dormitory, Zhao Xin was the one, the two chatted for a while, and simply came to the crew of "The Best Family"...

Chen Xi was a little worried: ""Party A and Party B 2" is a big hit, and you leave the celebration banquet early, will it affect your thoughts?" ”

“… I'm just a little screenwriter, who pays attention to me? ”

Gao Fenfen shook his head with a smile: "You are not a little screenwriter anymore!" ”

Indeed, "Outstanding Citizen" shines in Venice, "Party A and Party B 2" and "Orphaned" are two big hits, "Keep Talking" has a relationship with the Hong Kong circle, in addition, there are "Mobile Phone 2", "National Witness", "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" and other works...

Shen Xudong is also a hot figure now!

"The media is all about celebrities... Leaving this aside, what are you talking about? How did I hear Jiang Wen's name? ”

"Oh, Chen Xi suggested that "The Aviator" be directed by Jiang Wen..."

"What?" Shen Xu was taken aback: "Jiang Wen? Are you kidding? ”

"I'm just casually saying..."Chen Xi hurriedly explained: "Isn't it like we're breaking up with Orange Sky, the investment in "The Aviator" is not easy to get, I want to find Jiang Wen to direct..."

Shen Xudong probably understood, and shook his head: "Don't worry, it's only 5 million, you can make a fate from anywhere!" ”

"Are you so crazy now? 5 million, that's it? ”

“… Then I'll put it another way," Shen Xudong reorganized the language: "5 million... Then I'll give up my face to make an investment! ”

"Who are you looking for?"

"Huayi, didn't Huang Zhonglei say some time ago that he wanted to support young creators..."

Gao Fenfen nodded, this answer is quite reliable.

Chen Xi suddenly remembered something: "Eh, Xudong, have Huayi re-signed with Feng Xiaogang?" ”

"I don't know, I shouldn't have it..."

"Party A and Party B 2" and "Orphaned" are all making money, and there is no reason to go back to help others work!

……

How to evaluate Jiang Wen?

Awesome is really awesome.

If you want to invest in his movies, Shen Xudong will definitely recommend it, but let him invest himself, don't even think about it!

has Wang Jiawei's talent and Wang Jiawei's problem - changing lines on the spot;

has the talent of a small poetry master, but also has the problem of a small poetry master - filming a scene grinding and chirping, even if the fee is high, there is also a bad habit of shooting smoothly...

He is full of great talents, and he is full of serious diseases.

is obviously a good screenwriter who starts from a small person and understands the human nature at the bottom, but he likes to educate the audience...

We've all been educated for over twenty years!

It's been a long time ago.

He makes a movie, and after watching it in an hour and a half, he can turn the audience into a saint?

Anyway, Shen Xudong likes his movies, provided that he doesn't need to invest...

"The Aviator", Shen Xudong is still ready to let Zhou Shen and Liu Lu direct, and they are almost ready for the script and shots!

As for the five million money for the shoot ...

There shouldn't be any problems with Huayi's side, but it's really not good, pull Feng Xiaogang as the producer!

……

The crew of "The Best Family" stayed in a four-star hotel two kilometers away from the film and television city - mainly quiet, not as chaotic as the film and television city.

Filming is a very physically and mentally demanding job, so of course you have to rest well.

When Shen Xudong went downstairs for breakfast, the leading actors were almost gone...

"The Best Family" is a costume drama, although the actors put on makeup collectively in the hotel, but they also have to tinker with the crew...

Work starts at eight o'clock, and we have to leave at half past seven...

Shen Xudong went downstairs at half past eight...

We talked until almost three o'clock last night, so why did I have to sleep for five hours!

looked at the empty restaurant and sighed a little: "Tsk, the actors are so hard!" ”

Then I put a bowl of lean porridge, plus five buns, two eggs and a glass of milk, and served it to an empty seat, before eating the first one, I saw Chen Xi walking in with a dusty face, bringing a bowl of porridge, and also taking eggs and buns...

"Where have you been?"

“… I'm going to recruit a group performer! ”

"Where?"

"The Gate of the North Shadow!"

Shen Xudong was surprised: "Beiying? ”

"At the entrance of the BJ Film Studio, there are a bunch of group performances gathered there every day..."

Shen Xudong glanced at her: "You don't need to go in person, right?" Find an assistant director..."

Chen Xi rolled his eyes: "Don't want money?" If you don't have a home, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are! Besides, what if the director plays tricks with you and attracts a group of crooked melons and cracked dates? ”

"Then change...

"You have to pay for the transportation back and forth... So, I'll find it myself! ”

"The costume, the setting..."

"I'm going to talk... How much do you want, I'll let them report it to me, and I'll talk about it myself! ”
