Chapter 638: It looks a little pitiful

Marriage is always about relatives and friends eating and drinking, and the bride and groom are bitter.

Zhang Guorong and Gu Nan's wedding is indeed infinitely beautiful, but after this set of tosses, Gu Nan went home and rested directly for two days before relieving, not to mention anything else, the phoenix crown weighing more than ten catties alone was enough to bear.

Because the wedding site was not open to the media, the media who were at the door of the Hilton Hotel early that day did not take a single photo except when the guests entered the venue.

No matter how hard they tried their best, they couldn't break through the layers of security, and in the end, they could only get some news about the wedding from the hotel service staff and the guests attending the wedding.

For several days in a row, the major newspapers and magazines in Xiangjiang reported at length as if they had seen it with their own eyes.

There is no picture and no truth, just rely on words to fool you.

Gu Nan rested at home for two days, and then went on his honeymoon with Zhang Guorong.

said that it was a honeymoon, and the itinerary of the two was really full for a month.

First go to Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, then travel to 14 countries in Europe, and finally go to the Maldives, turn around such a big circle, and then return to Xiangjiang.

Originally, Zhang Guorong still wanted to go with his family and go on vacation by the way.

But Li Sufen and Gu Xiaowu said that they didn't agree to anything, no matter how good the son-in-law said, it was useless.

In the end, it was decided that Gu Bei's family would play by themselves on the side of Xiangjiang, when would they return to the capital?

Undetermined!

Gu Bei accompanied his family to play for a few more days, and Chen Xunqi came to the door.

After all, he is also the major shareholder of Guangya, so he can't do nothing.

No, just after lunch, Chen Xunqi arrived with Wang Jiawei.

Wang Jiawei is dressed as always, with a windbreaker and sunglasses.

It's the end of May now, and the weather in Xiangjiang is very hot, and I'm not afraid of heat stroke.

Gu Bei complained in his heart, and he was flipping through the script that Wang Jiawei had made in his retreat for half a year.

"Ashes of Time".

Yo!

Changed your name?

The story is still the same story, but compared to the first edition of Chen Xiaoxu's casual reading, this time it can barely be seen.

At least not like at the beginning, just describing the scenery of a desert can cost 3,000 words.

At the beginning of the story, it was still Ouyang Feng's tavern in the desert.

came up with a large part of Ouyang Feng's inner monologue.

An inexplicable person, saying inexplicable things, sounds like it makes sense, but if you think about it carefully, you are farting.

Wang Jiawei seems to be deliberately rendering a sense of desolation.

The whole script has always tried to create this atmosphere.

Speaking from the heart, Wang Jiawei is still a little bit unexpected, but he is a little greedy, he wants to express too many things in a movie, but he just wants to analyze it according to his own understanding, and the result is ......

The things that can be excavated in depth are taken over by one stroke, and the parts that can be clearly explained in one sentence are unusually cumbersome.

The length of the script is not very long, and Gu Bei only took half an hour to read it.

"Mr. Gu, I think...... This time, the script is not bad! ”

Chen Xunqi couldn't hold back and said.

Gu Bei looked at Chen Xunqi curiously, if he remembered correctly, the last time he met Wang Jiawei, Chen Xunqi was still opposed to investing in Wang Jiawei.

"It's really progressive, at least it looks like a story!"

The storyline is still very confusing, with one or two characters popping up from time to time that are completely out of the whole story, and there are completely unnecessary plots.

But in general, it is barely understandable.

The main content is those relationships, Wang Jiawei seems to be very good at shooting this kind of thing.

"Mr. Wang!"

Wang Jiawei is still in a concave shape, but his hands that are constantly changing positions still betray his emotions at the moment.

Very nervous!

Since "The True Story of A Fei", he has been idle for too long.

During this period, he also went to the gold owner Mao Sui to recommend himself, but as long as the other party heard his name, they all hid away.

Even on the side of the Xiang brothers, he had the courage to go.

Outcome......

They didn't beat him, but very politely arranged for the younger brother to send him home.

It can be said that Gu Bei's here is his last hope.

If Gu Bei still refuses to invest this time, Wang Jiawei has also thought about it, so he should change his career as soon as possible and find a new job in An'an.

After all, he is not alone now, and having a family means having responsibilities.

Big men can't always be supported by women!

"May I ask, what do you want to express through the shell of Jin Yong's martial arts?"

Wang Jiawei opened his mouth, obviously there was a lot to say, but he didn't know where to start, just like when he was making a movie, he had a lot of ideas, but how to express those thoughts, his brain would become blank.

"I ...... What I want to express is the attitude of different people towards life, as well as the unique perception of feelings, such as ......"

Wang Jiawei began to flicker.

I was a little nervous at first, but as soon as I opened my mouth, the rest of the matter was simpler.

At the beginning, he relied on his mouth to fool Deng Guangrong.

This product is actually not as cold as his image, and he is still very good at speaking in the vernacular.

Gu Bei heard it in a fog, Wang Jiawei said a lot, but he didn't seem to say anything, but there was a kind of ...... I don't know how to feel it.

Life, Love, Philosophy......

The more Wang Jiawei spoke, the more energetic he became, and Gu Bei felt that the whole person was confused.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

Who is this stupid lack in front of you?

"Mr. Wang!"

Finally, someone interrupted Wang Jiawei's words, not Gu Bei, but Chen Xunqi.

"According to what you said, are you really sure you can express it all in one movie, in two hours?"

Compared with Gu Bei, Chen Xunqi is obviously more expert.

"You said a lot, but you don't have a clear core, in addition, I have also read the script, the story line is very messy, Ouyang Feng's, Huang Yaoshi's, Blind Samurai's, Hong Qigong's, and ...... I won't explain the rest of them one by one, but do some of them really have anything to do with the main line of the story? ”

Awesome!

The problem pointed out by Chen Xunqi happens to be Wang Jiawei's biggest problem.

For example, he later filmed "The Grandmaster", looking at the beginning of the story, it should be the story of Ip Man, but at the end, I feel that Ip Man doesn't seem to be doing anything serious in the whole play, except for pinching his daughter-in-law's feet, just eating and drinking.

It's not as good as the heroine Gong Er and the villain Ma San.

In addition, what is the role played by Zhao Laofu'er for?

It didn't have to appear at all, but it just came out and shook it.

It is said that after Zhao Laofu'er finished acting, he didn't know who he was playing, and at first he thought it was Gong Er's father, but later found out that it was not at all.

According to reports, he should be a martial arts master, but he didn't move his hands during the whole process, and he just moved his mouth, which is very in line with Zhao Laofu'er's professional characteristics.

There are also Zhang Zhen and Shen He, these two people are even more inexplicable, they have no intersection with the actor Ip Man at all, they appeared in a hurry, and then left in a hurry.

Poor Zhang Zhen has been learning Baguazhang for several years for this role, but as a result, it was completely useless.

This is true of "The Grandmaster", as well as "2046", which has been complained about countless times by the audience.

In his previous life, because of a friend's recommendation, Gu Bei once bought a pirated CD, watched it several times, and didn't understand what Wang Jiawei wanted to shoot?

I didn't even figure out the relationship between the characters in it.

Listening to Chen Xunqi's words, Wang Jiawei opened his mouth, as if he wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to explain.

So, the three of them froze.

Gu Bei and Chen Xunqi waited for Wang Jiawei to give an answer that would satisfy them.

What about Wang Jiawei?

He misses Liu Zhenwei very much at this time.

Every time he encountered this situation before, it was Liu Zhenwei who helped him out of the siege.

"I ...... Originally, I was going to make this story into two episodes! ”

"Just rely on such a little content to make two movies?"

Just now, Chen Xunqi was helping Wang Jiawei speak, but now he didn't give any face.

"There are many things that cannot be accurately expressed in words, and it is impossible to leave all the creation on paper, and the explosion of inspiration needs an appropriate time."

Yes, there is a real saying.

Seeing that Chen Xunqi was about to speak, Gu Bei hurriedly stopped him.

"You're playing...... What is the budget? ”

In his previous life, Wang Jiawei spent on filming "East Evil and West Poison", and there are different opinions on the Internet, some say that it cost 50 million, and some say 70 million.

Gu Bei felt that neither of these figures should be credible.

The final box office of "East Evil and West Poison" was only a few million, and the box office of "East Becomes West" grabbed by Liu Zhenwei with the same team reached more than 20 million, and the total was only more than 30 million.

If the investment really reaches 50 million......

Investors still lost a lot of money.

Can people spare Wang Jiawei?

Therefore, a total investment of 30 million to 35 million should be a more reliable figure.

Although the investor lost, it was not to the point where he went to trouble Wang Jiawei because of the lost money.

"65 million!"

Hehe!

Gu Bei looked at Wang Jiawei and said word by word: "After thinking about it, let's talk about it again." ”

Belch......

Wang Jiawei scratched his head: "In this play, I am going to invite an all-star lineup, and all the big stars in Xiangjiang are in the plan, so ......"

As he spoke, he observed Gu Bei's expression, and seeing that Gu Bei didn't say a word, Wang Jiawei's heart was bottomless.

"Mr. Gu?"

"All-Star squad?"

Gu Bei said, picked up the script, and then threw it directly in front of Wang Jiawei.

"The sister-in-law you wrote about, and the peach blossom, didn't even have a line in the whole process, who are you going to invite?? Zhang Manyu? Lin Qingxia? Zhong Chuhong? Or Liu Jialing? ”

Otherwise, how can you say that Wang Jiawei owes a beating!!

is obviously a small role that doesn't have much weight, but I want to invite a big name at the level of actor and actress to play it.

Don't you know how to save some money for investors?

If it is said that the sister-in-law played by Zhang Manyu and the peach blossom played by Liu Jialing still appear in the movie.

And what about Wang Guxian?

In his previous life, the role of Wang Guxian in "East Evil and West Poison" has always been an unsolved mystery in the history of Xiangjiang films.

Wang Jiawei refused to say, and Wang Guxian was embarrassed to say.

But Wang Guxian did indeed shoot that scene, and he will not be paid because Wang Jiawei cut off all her scenes.

The money was spent, and there was not even a straight face.

If Gu Bei were an investor, he would have to cut Wang Jiawei, the king of eight calves.

Wang Jiawei didn't know how to answer this: "Other characters...... Big stars are paid very well, for example, I am going to ask Zhang Guorong to play the role of Ouyang Feng......"

As he spoke, Wang Jiawei's voice became smaller and smaller, and he also realized that he had said something stupid.

Zhang Guorong and Gu Bei's sister's wedding of the century has just ended, although they dare not say that it will be the end, but it is destined to be unprecedented.

Moreover, Zhang Guorong has publicly announced the news of his retirement.

"Mr. Gu, what if ...... If you really want to shoot, can you ......?"

"My brother-in-law's affairs, I don't get involved, you go and talk to him yourself."

Belch?

Wait a minute!

That's not right!

How do you talk about it, it seems that you really want to invest in Wang Jiawei and shoot this...... Ashes of time.

Never mind!

Gu Bei looked at Wang Jiawei and suddenly felt that this guy was quite pitiful!

is obsessed with movies, and movies do give him enough honors, but they never give him anything at the box office.

Otherwise, why would he have fallen into the current virtue.

"You go back and make a budget, and the investment cost is controlled at 20 million, and I agree to invest in this movie."

20 million??

Wang Jiawei was stunned for a moment, and then quickly calculated the salary of each actor in his heart, and came to the conclusion that if he followed this investment amount, he might only be able to invite a low-profile version of the lineup.

"Mr. Gu, 20 million words...... I guess it's hard for me to guarantee the quality of the work, and it's ......"

"Mr. Wang, I'm not bargaining with you!"

Wang Jiawei was completely speechless now, he still wanted to fight for it again, but he was worried that Gu Bei would be unhappy, and he couldn't even get this investment.

Let's do it first!!

It's a big deal to wait for the money to be spent, and then reach out and ask for it.

This is not the first time Wang Jiawei has done this kind of thing, but unfortunately, this time, Gu Bei is destined not to let him get his wish.

"In addition, I have other conditions, this drama, I will arrange someone to follow the crew throughout the whole process, every money spent will be supervised by the person I arranged, and the filming progress of the crew must be planned in advance, and there is ......"

Gu Bei stretched out a finger and tapped it vigorously on the script.

"You have to follow the script, I don't want to see your imagination run wild, understand?"

Wang Jiawei was stupid when he heard it.

If this is the case, how can the scene be filmed, and he will be covered with heavy and heavy halters.

This......

"Mr. Gu, I think you should understand how important imagination is to a director!"

Gu Bei smiled: "Of course I know, but imagination is also very luxurious for a director, at least for you now, that's it, when you have enough data to support your imagination, I am very willing to give you the greatest freedom, I say this, you should understand what it means, right?" ”
