Chapter 307: The big heroine is on fire again
The 3 TV series cooperated by Longqi Film and Netflix, "Rear Wing Abandonment", are all Omi actors, and the filming location will also be set in the Omi region, so it has no effect on the artists of domestic entertainment.
And the other two films were preliminarily decided to be filmed in Xiangjiang because of the subject matter, and the actors would indeed choose Chinese artists at that time. So it's normal for everyone to be excited and looking forward to it.
Regarding the specific personnel, Li Jingkun has not yet thought about and determined, if it is suitable, anyone can possibly.
It's just that now he is busy preparing for "Operation Red Sea", and the first TV series he is preparing is "Abandoned Soldiers on the Rear Wing", so he can't promise anything to others for the time being.
The reason why Gao Meiyuan called over was indeed affected by the recent popularity, and she would not refuse if she really had the opportunity to star.
Of course, it's better to be the heroine.
It's a pity that the heroine of "Dark Glory" is Liu Tianxian, and the female characters in "Money House" are not very likable, and they can't be called absolute heroines, so it's really not suitable for her.
But she didn't care too much, the reason why she contacted him this time was not only because of the heat, but also because she was curious about what these projects were about, and also to help her friend find out the news.
After all, many people know that she has a good relationship with Li Jingkun, so they also have the intention of asking her to help recommend one or two.
Li Jingkun told her: "I haven't started to discuss the specific situation, because the new film is about to start shooting recently, and I have to be busy with "Operation Red Sea". I will pay attention to the actor you said later, if it is suitable, use her, if it is not suitable, there is no way.
And we'll probably start signing new artists again. ”
"You're starting to sign artists? Yes, what do you think of me? ”
“······”
Longqi Film and Television is indeed ready to sign artists again, after all, these TV series need a lot of actors, and if they become popular at that time, the income may be global.
Especially "Money House", this TV series has created a lot of stars, and in the year or two when it became popular, the advertising endorsement fees of several main actors have risen very high, and they are global, and people all over the world know them.
It can be said that the business value has increased very much, both for them and for the whole company.
So because of these considerations, Li Jingkun decided to sign some artists again.
Besides, after getting in touch with Netflix this time, it will definitely be more than just filming these 3 TV series in the future. There are also a lot of works that can be done later, and there are a lot of actors needed. Therefore, there is no problem in signing a few more artists.
It's okay to sign a few more actors from Bangzi Country in the future, after all, many TV series that cooperate with Netflix can only be filmed in Bangzi Country.
It's just that Longqi Film and Television has been considering whether to leave the artist agency part.
Or that the original old artists do not need to separate, re-register or acquire a brokerage company, and then assign the newcomers to this new company.
These are still being discussed, and they have not yet been decided.
But the signer is definitely going to sign.
In other words, if they are willing to join Longqi Film and Television, the actors have a great chance to star in the two TV series "Dark Glory" and "Money House".
Gao Meiyuan was naturally joking with Li Jingkun, and the two chatted for a long time before hanging up the phone.
Li Jingkun feels that if there is really a suitable role, you can really contact her to take a look, not limited to TV series or movies, no matter how big or small the role is, anyway, it will only be a cooperative relationship.
·······
Several TV series have stirred the hearts of many Chinese artists, and even Brother Long has contacted him again.
He was surprised when he learned that Li Jingkun was cooperating with Netflix, but he didn't expect him to start cooperating with Miguo Company silently - why didn't you tell me about this? Is there a chance for me?
"Big brother is joking······ We're filming a TV series, so TV series shouldn't be suitable for you, right? ”
"Hahaha, no, if the story is exciting, I'm not saying that you can't make TV series, and now many Hollywood superstars have also started to make TV series."
But obviously, none of my TV series are suitable for you, if you want to make a TV series, how can you be the absolute leading actor, right? It's these ones, obviously not!
However, Li Jingkun does have preparations for another action movie later, but there will definitely be no schedule this year, and it is still uncertain whether he will direct it himself, so I will watch it later.
In addition to artists such as Gao Meiyuan and Brother Long who contacted Li Jingkun because of Netflix, some film and television companies that usually cooperate well with Longqi Film and Television also contacted them, mainly to see if they could have opportunities to cooperate.
For example, Huaying, Perfect Planet, Sohu.com, Penguin.com, Meow Eye Entertainment, etc., and even Zhongyi Brothers also came, just to see if they could take it, and they didn't need to share any money, mainly to stimulate the stock price······
It's just a pity that Netflix, which has deep pockets, doesn't need additional investment, and the investment of 560 million soft girls is just a little bit of skin for them. There is no need for others to share the risk or anything.
In the end, even some of the big leaders above were shocked by this incident of Longqi Film and Television, and they couldn't help but come over to ask about it.
In fact, in the past two years, since "The Witch" and "Little People" have continuously achieved such great influence and achievements overseas, Longqi Film and Television and Li Jingkun have always attracted the attention of the above, and some big leaders have also visited the company, and they were also on the local news at that time.
Cultural export, earn foreign exchange!
Let people all over the world see more of the culture and life of our country!
Tell others that our life is also very exciting, and the cultural and entertainment industry is also very developed! These are all very positive and positive influences, so they are naturally very concerned and encourage Longqi Film and Television to continue to develop like this!
In fact, this time I cooperated with Netflix, and these 3 works were also shown to them by the General Bureau, and they were also greeted.
It's just that although the General Administration knows, there must be more leaders of relevant departments who don't know, and it is at this time that it suddenly arouses such a big amount of attention, and they will pay attention to it.
Some leaders came to ask Li Jingkun, in addition to learning about the content of the TV series and some things about Netflix, the leaders also asked why they were filming in Xiangjiang, these big cities in our country, these good rivers and mountains are not good?
Li Jingkun said that the subject matter is more sensitive, and the domestic environment may not be very suitable.
For example, in "Money House", it is not appropriate to write about a group of protagonists who are deliberately going to rob a bank, right? Especially if there will be a lot of people dying inside, it's too unpositive.
"Dark Glory" is a little better, school violence has always been a serious problem in any country, and in recent years, the General Administration will also let this theme pass the review. For example, "Young You", which will be filmed later in Longqi Film and Television, passed.
But "Dark Glory" is not just school violence, it also has to write about the heroine's intention to take revenge, and everyone is definitely not encouraged to do this'' and even if it is reviewed, it will be broadcast in the end, and it is hard to guarantee that there will be no "parents" or peers to report it, saying that it has distorted values or something.
So in order to be safe, it's better to use the background of Xiangjiang directly.
After hearing this, the leader asked again, so why can't you shoot something positive.
Li Jingkun said: "Of course, these are okay, such as "Wolf Warrior 2" directed by Wu Jing, such as "Operation Red Sea" that I will shoot later, are all such works, but foreign investment companies will not invest in these works, and Netflix will not invest in and produce this kind of work."
And the reason why we were able to cooperate with them successfully this time was not because I was personally charming or had my own personality, but mainly because I returned to the story.
It is because these stories of ours are relatively novel, more in line with the psychology of human curiosity, and more in line with the lowest desires of human beings, that they will choose to invest and produce! ”
The leader also sighed: "You're right, you must be professional in this area, and you must know more about this!"
It's okay, cultural export is a difficult and long-term job, and we certainly can't expect to make any big achievements in a year or two.
It is also very good to be able to shoot and shoot in Xiangjiang, and we can also learn the cultural output mode of Hollywood, which can pass on culture and ideas in a subtle and silent state! ”
·······
In mid-March, Operation Red Sea was launched in Morocco.
This time, the shooting time will be longer, because there are more departments and equipment that need to be cooperated.
The personnel of each department should be well coordinated, the scene should be well matched, the weather should be suitable, the equipment should be transported in time, and so on.
This time, the actors' performances are relatively secondary, because the performance is not very difficult, and the personnel are also professional; And it can be said that it belongs to a group drama, and there are not many places where acting skills are really needed.
On the contrary, it was the action scene that was difficult, and there was an accident soon, and after the actor Zhang Yi filmed for half a month, his foot was broken······
Eating is also a problem, because most of the food you can buy here is meat, and there are very few vegetables; Even if I finally bought some, the taste is very different from that in China. Everyone is not used to eating.
After they had spent more than half a month like this, someone suddenly proposed, why don't we grow some of our own vegetables?
“······”
When I first heard this, everyone was a little confused, and came all the way here to grow vegetables? The genes of the Chinese people farming are too deep-rooted, and when they see the land, they want to cultivate it, right?
However, the thought that they would continue to stay here for a long time finally agreed to this matter, and then began to operate this matter.
Not to mention, there are really many people in the crew who know how to farm, such as the actor Zhang Yi is very familiar with this.
When to loosen the land, when to water, how much is the density of vegetables, how to solve the problem of insects, etc., all of them are handled in a decent way; Even because the land here is different from that in China, in order to make the land fertile, he also specially dug some earthworms and put them in the vegetable field······
And what is surprising is that there is a chef among several actors, that is, Yin Fang, who plays the observer. Whether he is frying, cooking, or stewing, he really knows anything, which gives a little comfort to the main creators who are in a foreign country and it is difficult to eat a good meal.
Zhang Yi also said that Yin Fang's main job is to cook in Africa, and filming is only incidental·······
Hehe, don't talk about the second brother in your Zhang Yi, one is here to grow vegetables, and the other is here to cook!
Later, Liu Tianxian also came, of course, this time it was not purely to send warmth, because this time she also had a role, but this time it was only a small cameo.
Her scene was quickly filmed; Of course, if you come here from thousands of miles, you can't stay for a day or two and leave, at least you will stay for a while.
Don't laugh, everyone else is the same, from time to time there will be the other half to visit the class, and then live together for a period of time - fresh food is hard to find here, many times it is really boring, and the arrival of the other half can be regarded as a dish······
This movie is planned to be filmed for 4 months, and there are almost 3 months to stay here, boring and hard.
Anyway, if there is such a movie in the future, Li Jingkun will give priority to finding other directors to direct, and he is not ready to go into battle by himself.
""The Legend of Chu Qiao" is popular, and Zhao Xiaodao is so popular because of this TV series, I am so envious and jealous!"
In the hotel room at night, when Li Jingkun and Liu Tianxian were resting with their mobile phones, the latter said this.
Li Jingkun said:
"So as we discussed before, the big heroine has been the most eye-catching work in recent years, and a good TV series is also the most able to attract fans, and now it can even directly affect the company's stock price.
It can be said that it is an all-round benefit, which is why I also attach great importance to TV dramas, and in recent years, I have also focused on filming big heroines. ”
The influence is very great, so that everyone's confidence in the company has increased greatly!
Although the investment is expensive, the production cycle is also long, and the profit is not as high as some movies.
But how many movies can be on in a year? You can't just keep picking up the wool of the movie, right?
The field of TV dramas must also be arranged, and it is also a good stimulus to the company's stock price, so TV series will also be one of the important businesses of Longqi Film and Television.
"So can our new drama be so popular by then? Will it be better to shoot costume dramas? ”
Unexpectedly, Liu Tianxian is so excited that he wants to shoot a costume TV series now?
Li Jingkun said: "Costume dramas can also be filmed, but no matter how high the influence is, it is only in China, only modern dramas have a greater possibility that people in other countries can accept and see it, and only modern dramas can be sold to the world more smoothly!"
So you just need to prepare with peace of mind - if you don't meet your expectations in the future, I'll accompany you to shoot a costume drama! ”
Liu Tianxian couldn't help laughing: "Accompany me to shoot costume dramas?" Whether you're acting with me or helping me direct—yes, I really haven't seen you in a costume! ”
“······ I mean directing. ”
"It's okay, it's okay for you to be the male lead, I'm looking forward to seeing what you're like in ancient costumes!"
"I'm probably not fit to be an actor anymore. But it's okay to make a comedy appearance once in a while. ”
"It's just playing, why is it not appropriate?"
“······ So you like COS too? By the way, we have tried 'Wang Yuyan' and 'Zhao Ling'er', how about we play something different next time we go back to China? What do students pretend to be nurses or not? ”
“······”
Thank you for the 100 tips of book friends mantissa 7336 and book friend mantissa 6100!
Ask a question, if later, will it be a bit inconsistent for the male protagonist to star in a costume drama with Liu Tianxian? It's to write that the male protagonist wants to play acting again at the end, and then be an actor for a while, and then plan to retire early or something.
