Now that the script is finalized.

The next thing is the preparation and formation of the crew and the selection of actors.

has the background and relationship of Haina Films, and Gu Cheng does not need to interfere in the preparation of this matter by the crew.

Gu Cheng was worried about the selection of directors and actors.

Actors and scripts are often mutually beneficial.

Compared to other movies, "Operation Mekong" actually doesn't have many characters at all.

Popularity, traffic and anything are not within Gu Cheng's consideration.

His selection was only fine.

The so-called fine means that acting skills alone are not enough, the actor's own temperament and image must be completely suitable for the role.

Before that.

Gu Cheng has to go back to the company to sort out the script again.

The movie is based on real events, and 90% of the plot and characters have prototypes.

He has to prepare a script for the protagonist and all the important supporting characters.

Gu Cheng had just returned to the company on the front foot.

Liu Hongguang, who received the news, arrived on his hind feet.

"No, Gu Cheng, do you really want to make a movie? When did you hide the script I wrote? ”

Liu Hongguang couldn't believe it.

Aren't you just going to shoot a public service announcement?

Why did a banned D movie pop up, and the script came out?

"When Sheriff Yang said that they had a plan to invest in the film, I wrote a script by the way."

Gu Cheng said as he turned on the computer.

"And I haven't played a movie yet, so I want to make a movie to play."

"Play?" Liu Hongguang black line, "Are you a movie maker?" ”

Su Qi only cares about one thing.

"Gu Cheng, are you planning to shoot in person?"

Gu Cheng shook his head, "Although I really want to go into battle in person, but professional things are left to professional people, and I don't toss if I am inexperienced, so as not to waste such a good subject." ”

"Operation Mekong" exploded when it was released in its previous life, and won nearly 1.2 billion at the box office.

Now Gu Cheng has the opportunity to put it on the big screen of this world.

It has also received strong official support.

The finished product, not to mention surpassing the original, at least must not destroy the classic.

Lin Hongguang asked curiously: "Gu Cheng, which director do you want to find to shoot?" ”

The applause and the main theme are, in a sense, conflicting.

To make a main theme movie, it is necessary to take into account the political ~ political orientation, but also to ensure market income and audience reputation.

This difficulty is no less than dancing under shackles.

There are very few directors who can do it.

Gu Cheng: "Director Zhao recommended a director to me, he is fragrant ~ Lin Qing of Hong Kong!" ”

Liu Hongguang gasped, "Devil director Lin Qing?!" ”

Lin Qing is an avid military fan, and he is best at shooting police and bandit-themed films.

For the authenticity and credibility of the film's footage, he can be said to be "desperate" to go on it in person.

Lin Qing usually tastes the hardships he has endured during actor training and actual filming.

Such a crazy and dedicated director, there is no second one in the circle!

Gu Cheng also took a fancy to this.

"In order to make the audience enjoy watching it, Lin Qing has always strived to be real and refused to shoot in the studio!"

"This coincides with my thoughts, let Lin Qinglai direct, it's hard to miss!"

"Lin Qing is indeed good!"

Su Qi narrowed his eyes, "But as far as I know, Director Lin has been semi-retired since the decline of Hong Kong films." ”

"Gu Cheng, if you want to invite Lin to go out of the mountain, I'm afraid it's not easy."

Gu Cheng sighed, also worried about this matter.

"So I'm going to have to go and ask for it myself tomorrow."

……

What surprised Gu Cheng was that.

When he saw Lin Qing, he was sipping tea, and he had expected his arrival.

"Early this morning, there was a magpie falling on the windowsill, and I was still thinking about what a good day it was, but it turned out that there was a distinguished guest who came to the door!"

Gu Cheng calmly stepped forward and put down the gift.

"Director Lin, this is an uncertain prophet, do you know that I am going to come to visit?"

"Lao Zhao called me yesterday."

Lin Qing didn't sell Guan Zi either, and poured Gu Cheng a cup of tea.

"Try it, I went to Yun~nan to bring back the Pu'er tea."

"Director Lin is a cheerful person, since this is the case, let's get straight to the point!"

Gu Cheng respectfully handed over the script.

"Director Lin, this is my script, see if it can get into your eyes!"

"Operation Mekong?"

When Lin Qing opened the script, he just swept it very casually at first.

But it was less than three minutes.

He sat down and began to study it carefully.

The film revolves around the murder of a Chinese crew member in the Golden Triangle, and tells the story of an action team that goes deep into the dangerous Golden Triangle to investigate in order to unravel the conspiracy of the Chinese merchant marine crew to be killed.

During this period, the protagonist encounters various hard battles such as drag racing, jungle lurking, motorboat battles, and air support, and successfully captures the culprit and returns to China for trial.

The spirit of this movie lies in returning to the basics of police films, which is to fight for justice.

So China has risen, and we have the ability to protect every Chinese citizen and get justice for them.

This makes overseas Chinese citizens have a greater sense of belonging, security, and national self-confidence!

For Lin Qing, who has made police movies for half his life.

Just look at the script.

He can roughly judge the popularity of this show!

If this movie can really be made according to the script, the box office will not be a problem at all.

Lin Qing put down the script, looking unpredictable.

"Such a good script, many people in the circle are interested, right?"

"To tell you the truth, after the news of the movie was released, several directors did find Haina and said that they were willing to direct for free, but I refused all of them!"

Gu Cheng's gaze locked on Lin Qing, his gaze burning.

"Because I think in the whole of China, only Director Lin is capable of this movie!"

Lin Qing squinted: "I haven't filmed for a few years, so you're not afraid that my hands will be born, and the things you shoot can't keep up with the pace of the market?" ”

Gu Cheng smiled, "I believe in Director Lin's strength!" ”

"Director Lin, good scripts are often available, but suitable scripts are hard to find!"

"You can let go of our film to shoot, whether it is hand-to-hand combat in the rain, or gunfight in the water, or air pursuit, we all use real scenes to shoot, and refuse to use special effects to shoot!"

"And I am willing to use 5% of the total box office to share the remuneration, and sincerely invite Director Lin to help direct!"

There is no ratio between the remuneration of directors and stars, if it is shared, it is basically 3% to 5%.

Sometimes, if you come across a suitable script, you may even shoot it for free in order to pursue so-called art.

To be honest, Gu Cheng opened this price.

For Lin Qing, who has retired for a few years, he is already quite sincere.

"To be honest, your script is really very much to my liking!"

"Since you don't dislike my old bones and sincerely invite, then I'll take it!"

Gu Cheng was overjoyed, "That's really good!" ”

"Director Lin, before the cooperation, I want to state that since the movie is a live shooting, we will go to Southeast Asia to shoot, and the shooting conditions may be difficult."

"Isn't it Southeast Asia, I'm very familiar with it!"

Xiang ~ Hong Kong, the land of projectiles, it is too troublesome to go to the mainland to make films, and it costs money in Europe and the United States.

Southeast Asia is erosive, chaotic and cheap, and is most suitable for making police movies.

Lin Qing often went there to shoot movies in his early years, which was like visiting his own backyard.

"But Gu Cheng, are you sure this script can pass the review?"

Gu Cheng chuckled, "Director Lin rest assured, the script not only passed the review smoothly, but also received strong support from the military!" ”

"If you encounter any problems with shooting, just mention it, and I will react to my superiors!"

"Then I'm relieved!"

It's hard for the boss, it's hard for the boss, it's not difficult for the boss to speak.

Since the movie is promoted by the superior leadership.

Lin Qing didn't have any worries now......
