Chapter 272: How are you this kind of person
The two of them could do whatever they wanted in the square and wander aimlessly, but this group of students couldn't. After a while, the bell rang and I hurried to the classroom.
High school students are like this, leaving early and returning late every day, which is more tiring than going to work.
When the two of them came back from a walk, Ning Hao was already directing people to hang Weiya under Building No. 2 and put a safety mat.
is filming the scene of Charlotte jumping off the building.
Seeing Ning Hao commanding with the walkie-talkie from downstairs, Huo Yunting patted him on the shoulder with relief, "Director Ning, I knew that it would definitely be good to invite you to be the producer." ”
"Can you take out some of the director's shelf? Don't go down the road with your wife. Ning Hao angrily poked his chest with the walkie-talkie, "Ben San's person." I also went to press the road teeth, and I was not ashamed. ”
Huo Yunting also replied angrily: "I'm pressing your house, it's a playground." ”
"Can you two stop arguing, I'm still hanging on it!"
Huo Yunting looked up and saw that Shen Teng, who had nowhere to put his limbs, was hanging from the window on the third floor with Weiya, which startled him.
Hurriedly moved away from the sponge pad, ", why don't you tell me, and smash me again in a while." ”
Shen Teng, who was hanging on the third floor, heard it clearly, and his eyelids couldn't help twitching, what he said was too chilling.
With the cold wind blowing, he shivered, and now his heart is cold, and his body is also cold.
Early the next morning, Huo Yunting went to Principal Gao and borrowed some students from him to film.
As soon as they heard that there was such an opportunity, the students signed up one by one like death squads. Although the number of applicants was large, Huo Yunting added another requirement of "parental consent required", and more than half of the people were screened out at once.
Then Ning Hao added a request of "don't want senior high school students", and now there are even fewer people left.
In the end, Huo Yunting only left a dozen students with a better image.
The most excited are the little girls, as soon as they heard that they could show their faces in the movie and play with Liu Yifei, they jumped up and down excitedly.
Huo Yunting looked funny, in addition to poking Liu Yifei, "You were like this when you filmed "The Condor Heroes". ”
Liu Yifei's face flushed, "I was still young at that time." ”
"Hmm. Indeed, it's big now. ”
"Phew."
It took three days to finish filming all the scenes in the school, and then paid these small group performers as compensation.
Before leaving, a few children reluctantly followed him, asking Huo Yunting if he could enter the entertainment industry as a star in the future.
"What do you think, if you enter the entertainment industry, you can't make up two minutes with the footage of your little people." Huo Yunting scolded angrily, "Give me a good study." ”
After sending away this group of hot-brained children, Principal Gao reluctantly came over, pulled him by the arm and asked when this film would be released.
Huo Yunting didn't dare to guarantee the ticket, so he could only talk to Principal Gao for the past two years.
After leaving school, the crew went to the Sun Ditch Scenic Area in Lushunkou District. The scenery of this place is beautiful, and the drama with the scenery can basically be solved here.
It's just that it's February, and it's the coldest time in the Northeast. No matter how good the scenery is on weekdays, it is now covered in silver.
Huo Yunting didn't mind, so wait and shoot the indoor scene first. And there is no need to find fake snow for scenes with snow, this is all ready-made.
After staying in the Sun Gully Scenic Area for less than two days, a phone call came over that surprised Huo Yunting.
It's Xu Zheng.
He doesn't have much contact with this person, and can only be regarded as an ordinary friend. I took the initiative to come to the door today, I guess there is something important.
The script was stuffed into Ning Hao's hand, "I'll answer the phone, you shoot first." ”
Ning Hao's eyelids jumped, he had never seen such a chief director.
Some of the films are bad because the director's ability is not up to par, and he did his best to shoot a piece of shit. Huo Yunting is good, whether his ability is good or bad put aside, this attitude is fucking outrageous.
The cost of more than 20 million yuan is all his own money.
"Hello? Xu Zheng? ”
"Haha, it's me, it's me. Yunting, I remember that Xiting is a film investment company, right? ”
How does this feel like someone told me before?
"What? Are you going to change careers to become a director? ”
"I have this idea. Before, from the wine table, didn't you say that you had an idea to come to you... Ha ha... Well, where are you? Let's have an interview, it's hard to talk about on this phone. ”
Huo Yunting thought for a while, "Then you come to Liaoning, I am in the Sun Ditch Scenic Area in Lushunkou District, Dalian." ”
Although the relationship between the two is average, they are friends in the final analysis, and it is difficult to say that he should contact Zhang Debang.
Besides, Lao Zhang is responsible for all the affairs of the company alone, and if he adds some work to him, he is somewhat embarrassed to be the shopkeeper.
"Hey, running to the northeast in February? Is this a honeymoon? ”
"Filming."
The voice on the other end of the phone was a little stunned, "What, you're also going to transform into a movie?" ”
"It's already been filmed."
"Okay, then I'll leave now, and I'll be there the day after tomorrow at the latest."
"Hey, by the way, let me ask first, what's your film called?"
"Thai Embarrassment."
"Thai Embarrassment?"
Huo Yunting immediately thought of the popular comedy "People in Embarrassment" a few years ago, which starred Xu Zheng.
"Is this a series from "People in Embarrassment"?"
"Let's talk again when we meet, I don't understand a word or two on the phone."
"Okay, then we'll see you later."
returned to the crew, Huo Yunting took over the script from Ning Hao, "Where did you shoot?" ”
"It's done with this one." Ning Hao said angrily.
……
Xu Zheng came earlier than the agreed time.
In the early morning of the next day, Huo Yunting was about to go for a morning run, when he saw a shiny bald head under the light at the door of the hotel.
It's not uncommon to have a bald head these days, let alone such a shiny head.
"Xu Zheng?"
"Yo, Yunting, get up so early."
"Oh, it's really you, come so early."
"It's not, I'm in a hurry, I'll come early."
The two sat down on the couch in the hall and chatted.
"Yo, Xu Zheng?" Ning Hao, who was about to go downstairs for breakfast, raised his eyes and saw a big shiny bald head.
After a closer look, I found that this was still an old acquaintance.
Seeing Ning Hao, Xu Zheng also looked a little surprised, "Director Ning? Why are you here? ”
"Lao Huo asked me to be a producer for him."
Xu Zheng couldn't help but take a breath, he still knows a little bit about Ning Hao, and he is also a person with pursuits.
Even if he and Huo Yunting are so good that they wear a pair of underwear, if the script is not good, he will not take over the work of producer.
Xu Zheng looked at Huo Yunting with a confident expression, "Yunting, your film must be no different." ”
"Hey, there's nothing wrong with the eight characters." Huo Yunting waved his hand, "Let's talk about your script first." ”
Xu Zheng didn't react yet, and Ning Hao, who was originally sleepy and tired, instantly became energetic, staring at Huo Yunting with blazing eyes.
"Don't tell me you're going to be a shopkeeper again this morning."
"What do you mean, I'm just chatting with Xu Zheng, how long can this be delayed. At most, it's just one morning. ”
Ning Hao's face was black, he thought that he came here to be a supervisor, but he didn't expect to be fooled into coming over as a coolie.
"I'm telling you, this is the last time. If you give me another trick on the shopkeeper, I'll pick my son and leave. In the future, your reputation will be as stinky as Wang Jiawei, you see that I pay attention to not killing you from behind. ”
"Good, good, I promise, for the last time." Huo Yunting raised his hands in surrender.
Sent Ning Hao away, he looked at Xu Zheng, and talked about this "Thai Embarrassment". ”
If you talk about the story behind the script of "Thai Embarrassment", it is really a child without a mother, and it is a long story.
Speaking of which, we have to start with the film "People in Embarrassment", and it also has a lot to do with the copyright holding company behind it, Huaqi.
Looking at his posture, Huo Yunting didn't feel like he could finish talking in the morning, so he hurriedly stopped him and asked him to make a long story short, concise and clear.
To put it bluntly, it is Huaqi's company that wants to make a sequel to "People in Embarrassment". After all, this film is so popular, and there will definitely be viewers willing to buy a second part.
"People in Embarrassment 2" Xu Zheng started writing with Hua Qi's permission, but when the script was about to be completed, Hua Qi's staff sent them another script.
then told Xu Zheng that this script is the book of "People in Embarrassment 2".
"Yunting, if it were you, what would you think? That's a bit excessive, right? ”
Huo Yunting nodded, "It's like you took off your pants, and they told you to have a period today." ”
Xu Zheng was stunned when he said this, but he quickly nodded his head, "Yes, that's the reason." ”
He felt that the book sent by Huaqi was not very good, and he wanted to use his own book. But Huaqi doesn't do it.
In the end, they quarreled and went their separate ways.
After all, the copyright is in the hands of others, and the final result is that Xu Zheng is kicked out.
Therefore, the script in Xu Zheng's hand, which was originally supposed to be called "People in Embarrassment 2", became the current "Thai Embarrassment".
"Personally, I don't think this book is very bad, and my estimated box office is three to four hundred million."
Huo Yunting raised his eyes slightly, "Haven't you looked for another company?" ”
"Some companies are too hard at bargaining, I offered 25 million, he cut me half and only gave me 10 million. It's not enough. ”
Well, after a long time, I couldn't find investment to come to me.
Huo Yunting's expression was impassive, "Then I'll take a look at the script." ”
Xu Zheng took out a notebook from his bag and handed it to Huo Yunting, and it happened that there was a gurgling sound in his stomach.
"You watch first, I'll go buy breakfast."
"That's right, bring one for me. Anything, I don't pick. ”
"Okay."
"Hey, by the way, is there a storyboard?"
Xu Zheng was stunned for a moment, his face became strange, and he couldn't help but think of a small story that was widely circulated in the circle: Huo Yunting had to read the storyboard script when he took the film.
"I said Director Huo, this rumor is true."
"What rumors?"
"Nothing." Xu Zheng took out another notebook from his bag, "The storyboard script has already been written." I'm ready now, all I owe is investment. ”
Huo Yunting just smiled slightly, "Don't forget to bring me breakfast." ”
After a while, Xu Zheng brought back two servings of tofu brain and four fritters.
It's just that Huo Yunting's tofu brain is sweet.
After eating salty tofu brain for nearly 30 years, he really tasted sweet for the first time. After tasting a few bites, I felt that the taste was acceptable, so I took a big bite of it.
After breakfast, the sun was rising. Everyone in the crew of "Charlotte's Troubles" also came down from the hotel with equipment on their shoulders.
Seeing Huo Yunting on the sofa on the side of the hall with Erlang's legs crossed, he was stunned.
"Director Huo, is it Director Ning again today?"
"What do you call again?" Huo Yunting waved his hand dissatisfiedly, "I'll go when I'm done, and I'll change it in the afternoon." ”
"Yes, Director Huo, you're busy, let's go first."
At about ninety o'clock, Huo Yunting finished reading the script and the sub-scenes, and he was thoughtful.
In a way, he thinks the script of "Thai Embarrassment" is better than "Charlotte's Troubles".
"Thai Embarrassment" is a pure comedy, without any edifying thoughts.
is like "Charlotte's Troubles", at the end, it is still about cherishing the present and cherishing the present.
But "Thai Embarrassment" is different, it is just to make you laugh, pure laughter. Laugh and laugh, and the purpose of this film has been achieved.
It's a popcorn movie through and through.
Huo Yunting nodded heavily, "This film, I think it's okay." ”
Xu Zheng was overjoyed, "It's just right, these three leading actors, the two I fancy happen to be artists from your company." ”
Huo Yunting was stunned for a moment, his face was a little strange, "You can't be talking about Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo, right?" ”
Xu Zheng slapped his thigh, "No, it's just the two of them." A natural comedian. ”
Huo Yunting nodded, "That's true, they are indeed suitable for acting in comedy." But ......."
Then, he pointed to the name of the cover of the script, "What does this "People Are Embarrassed Again" mean?" This is infringing, right? ”
Xu Zheng smiled mysteriously and shook his head, "Yunting, then you can look carefully, it's again, it's not now." ”
"So." Huo Yunting raised his eyebrows slightly, a little unsure of what Xu Zheng meant.
"Again, it's equivalent to a sequel, and it's a little trick in language."
Xu Zheng leaned back, spread his hands, and showed a smug smile on his face, "It doesn't matter if you can't use "People in Embarrassment 2", we are "People Are Embarrassed in Thailand". It's not a rare thing to get hot, if he really goes to the court to sue, let's take this back. ”
Xu Zheng is confident.
The script is not bad, the words are all clear, and Huo Yunting is obviously more optimistic about this script. Then there is a ninety percent chance that he will win the 25 million investment today.
Just waited for a long time, Huo Yunting didn't say a word.
He began to beat the drum in his heart.
"Cloud Pavilion?"
"Xu Zheng. Aren't you blatant infringing on people's rights? ”
Hearing this, Xu Zheng chuckled in his heart.
How can there be such a person in the entertainment industry? How did this kind of mind come to this place?
"Tsk."
Huo Yunting frowned slightly, "I'm a little curious now, what you just said is really fake?" ”
