Mo Shaocong is much better than Zheng Zeshi, not to mention that he and Huo Dongjun have worked before, I heard that Huo Dongjun was stunned to open a new film, and immediately said that even if there are other dramas, they will be temporarily postponed, and the friendship price will help Huo Dongjun support the scene.

Although he knows that the words in this guy's mouth just sound to his ears, Mo Shaocong is no longer the best newcomer with the handsome protagonist in "Martial Arts Holy Fire Order" a few years ago, the dramas in the past two years are the second male or even the third male, and the so-called rejection of the scene is even more polite, but Huo Dongjun is still grateful to Mo Shaocong from the bottom of his heart.

Mo Shaocong's market is a salary of 300,000 yuan for a play, and this time Huo Dongjun directed the tube and received 200,000 yuan.

After the starring characters were figured out, Huo Dongjun began to contact the preparation crew, the director team, the photography team, the action team, the lighting engineer, the costume team, and even the post-editing and subtitles had to be set in advance.

The first thing to deal with is the selection of assistant directors, because the construction of a crew, in addition to Huo Dongjun himself, many times have to rely on the assistant director to do things, generally Hong Kong crews will have two assistant directors, one is responsible for on-site shooting, and the other is responsible for the crew's general affairs.

Huo Dongjun, the assistant director in charge of the crew's general affairs, contacted Huang Baiwen, he is Li Xiuxian's descendant, his mind is eye-catching, his interpersonal relationships in the circle are wide enough, he can write, direct, and act, Huo Dongjun has worked with him, and the relationship is good, this guy impresses Huo Dongjun the most is that he drinks amazingly.

After receiving Huo Dongjun's call, Huang Baiwen nodded crisply.

As for the other, Huo Dongjun has his eye on Liu Weiqiang, it's not that he doesn't know other assistant directors, but Huo Dongjun feels that Liu Weiqiang is a well-known director when he hears about it in later generations, "Infernal Affairs" is directed by him, the level of photography is something to say, first-class, even his master Ao Zhijun recognizes that he is qualified to be a teacher, Huo Dongjun feels that he should be able to do the work of the assistant director on the scene, the last time he filmed "Evil Police", Liu Weiqiang was already a person with three cameras, adjusting the camera position, controlling the shooting rhythm, and checking the preparation work are all responsible for him, This time as the on-site assistant director, there was only some more minor shooting work to replace Huo Dongjun's complete on-site shooting work.

When I called Liu Weiqiang, this guy was working, I heard that Huo Dongjun was going to direct the tube, of course, I congratulated him on his success, but I heard that Huo Dongjun was going to ask him to be the on-site assistant director of the new film, Liu Weiqiang was a little hesitant, after he took charge of the camera for the first time in "Evil Police", people in the film industry recognized his photography skills very much, and even the master Ao Zhijun said that he had been out of the school after watching the movie, and recently Xinyicheng contacted him, ready to consider letting him be the director of a movie written by Shen Xicheng, but I didn't expect Xinyicheng to just finish contacting, Huo Dongjun called himself again.

This made Liu Weiqiang a little difficult to choose.

Which one is Shen Xicheng? The director of the Hong Kong Writers' Association, he is very talented in Hong Kong, and even Jin Yong and Ni Yu praise him as a young and talented person, and "Ming Pao" has even opened his column, and the popular "Jinghua Spring Dream" on TVB is a screenwriter made by Shen Xicheng.

But Huo Dongjun asked him to be the assistant director, and he has been carrying the camera for more than ten years, isn't it just to achieve the position of director little by little?

After thinking about it for two days, Liu Weiqiang called Huo Dongjun, he pushed down the play in Xinyicheng and came over to be the on-site assistant director for Huo Dongjun.

The place where Huo Dongjun and the two assistant directors met was very pitiful, the herbal tea shop on the same street as the Hongyi Haiwu Martial Arts Museum.

Huang Baiwen is thirty years old, the eldest of the three, sitting at the table listening to Huo Dongjun's five million performances from Yongsheng, and gave him a thumbs up:

"Ah Jun, it's very common for directors in this industry to be stunned, but when you are young, you can invest five million in your first play, which is rare, and the future is terrifying, why don't you drink a few glasses to celebrate?"

Huo Dongjun stirred the turtle paste in his hand and cut at him: "Cut, come less, and want to pour more into me?" I'm afraid of you, and let Chen Dong accompany you when you have time." ”

Liu Weiqiang read the script seriously on the side, since he is the assistant director of the scene, he naturally cares more about the content of the script than Huang Baiwen, because he will replace Huo Dongjun to complete part of the filming work.

"I calculated, five million, you sign Fat Cat and Mo Shaocong for 1.2 million, the remaining 3.8 million, buy film, rent a machine, the venue is now only a rough estimate of about 1 million, and then two dozen six (jargon in the film industry, meaning small roles, dragon sets) and Linji will be at least three or four hundred thousand, depending on the size of your movie scene, two million and four million, costumes, props, explosive stunts, etc. Huang Baiwen helped Huo Dongjun roughly calculate the cost according to the method he used to be an assistant director for other plays.

"Big guy, you are free, Brother Qiang is also free, the rest of the crew also needs to be paid, and I have to pay for tea every day. Huo Dongjun raised his middle finger at Huang Baiwen: "You don't come to lie to me, when I don't know that you are undercounted?"

"I thought you wouldn't count the salaries of the people behind the scenes, I want to see your excited expression when you learn that there are more than one million, where do you know that you can see through it. Huang Baiwen took a sip of herbal tea and said with a smile.

"According to normal calculations, about 4.2 million yuan for this drama can almost complete all the work in the early and late stages, and 800,000 yuan is used to save emergencies and prevent you from supporting it. After drinking the herbal tea, Huang Baiwen gave an answer that satisfied Huo Dongjun.

Huang Baiwen doesn't need to read the script, he only needs Huo Dongjun to tell him a few action scenes, a few big scenes, and how many scenes need to be memorized, and he can give a similar number, which he practiced as an assistant director.

Over there, Liu Weiqiang had already finished reading the script, and the first sentence he said to Huang Baiwen when he put down the script:

"Is it possible to add three more machines and six more machines? ”

Huang Baiwen took down the cigarette he had just put in his mouth and said to Liu Weiqiang:

"Qiang Zai, do you know that you want to add three more machines? The rent of one machine is 500 yuan a day, and the rent of three machines is 1,500 yuan, which is 150,000 yuan according to the three months of construction, and three more people need to come out to take charge of the machine, even if it is an ordinary assistant, three people will also cost 60,000 yuan in three months. You want 200,000 more in one sentence, not counting the extra film produced by the three machines, don't you want Ah Jun to invest all the 5 million in it, do you?

"You don't need to rent for three months, you can use daily rent to settle when filming big scenes, half a month or a month is enough, I guarantee that the finished picture will be good, especially in the shopping mall, three cameras can't guarantee the effect you want. Liu Weiqiang didn't care about money, but looked at Huo Dongjun and said in an affirmative tone.

Huo Dongjun took a deep breath and looked at Liu Weiqiang calmly with his eyes: "Okay, just let you have six machines, but six machines, one of you will take charge of the camera?"
