After talking about "Soldier Assault", news also came from "Crazy Stone".

"Stone" is finished.

Hu Qingquan, as a producer, finally asked Lu Ping'an about "Brokeback Mountain" after following "Stone".

Hu Qingquan returned to China before the completion of "Brokeback Mountain", and did not participate in the later stage.

He, like Tian Zhuangzhuang, didn't see the film.

I didn't know that Lu Ping'an only took three weeks to complete the film.

So these two are now waiting for Lu Ping'an to finish the movie, and then wait to see the finished film, and then look at the situation and point their fingers.

Now three months have passed since the filming of "Brokeback Mountain" was completed, and Hu Qingquan finally spoke: "Is "Brokeback Mountain" finished? ”

"Not yet."

Lu Ping'an made up a lie without even thinking about it.

What he wants is to make people feel that the film is "grinded".

Otherwise, it's too buggy.

And there are still four months before Venice to send the film, so it's early.

Sure enough, Hu Qingquan agreed with Lu Ping'an's answer: "It's right to do it slowly, don't be in a hurry." ”

There is really no hurry.

I'm very busy now, how can I have time to talk about literary films.

It's not too late to talk before the deadline for the delivery of films in Venice in May.

"Stone" invested a total of 6 million, and finally spent 6.55 million.

Ning Hao, who was drunk for two days after the banquet and finally returned to Beijing, rushed into the late room when he returned to the company.

It's just that Ning Hao was still tense after returning to the company, and it could be seen that he was under a lot of pressure.

Lu Ping'an didn't say much, and only handed over the company's largest editing room to him, so that he could have a comfortable environment for post-production.

This also made Lu Ping'an feel that the construction period of the company's building was still slow.

At the end of last year, he asked Uncle Liao to auction a piece of land in the capital and spent more than 100 million.

Not big, but not small either.

The main body can build a commercial office building, and a shopping mall can be built below.

The overall cost is expected to be about 500 million, which is also relatively luxurious in this era.

But the price is that the construction period will be relatively long, and it has been started for more than 5 months, and it will be completely completed by the end of 07.

Shaking his head, Lu Ping'an felt that it was better to be slow, and it was good to be durable.

On January 13, "Kung Fu" was released for three weeks, and the box office exceeded 200 million.

On the same day, Xu Lao Wei was taken by Han Sanpin to visit Lu Ping'an, for 3D.

Old Monster Xu is full of confidence.

Said that the visual effects team of "Seven Swords" approached the "Lord of the Rings" team.

The cast is also quite luxurious, and there are neon stars from the mainland, Hong Kong, and Taiwan.

The future is a trilogy!

That ambition can't be hidden.

But Lu Ping'an just went in his left ear and out of his right ear, and then stretched out his hand: Chenghui 15 million!

What trilogy, he doesn't listen.

However, Xu Laowei is already very satisfied, after all, Lu Ping'an's external quotations start at 2 million US dollars, which is cheaper by more than one million at this time, although it is not his money, but this is also face.

On January 24, "Kung Fu" was released for a month, with a box office of 256 million, about 80 million more than the original time and space.

"No Thieves in the World" is still in theaters, and the box office has reached about 170 million, more than 40 million more than the original time and space.

The box office of both films is much more than the data of the original time and space.

Others don't know, but Lu Ping'an himself is still clear.

He knows that his participation in the theater business and the continuous stimulation of the market with blockbusters have unconsciously expanded the domestic film market so much.

Something to be proud of.

Of course, what is even happier is that Planet Cinema, IMAX technology, etc. have made a lot of money.

Just when Lu Ping'an was taking stock of how much his theater had earned in this Chinese New Year, Chen Jiashang of Xiangjiang brought good news, and the script of "Painted Skin" was completed.

That night, Lu Ping'an took the script printed out by the mailbox and stayed in Zeng Li's nest.

"Look at this script."

On the sofa, Lu Ping'an handed it to Zeng Li.

"What kind of script?"

Zeng Li said curiously.

"Movie scripts, good painted skins, do what you say."

"You really wrote it?"

"I didn't write it, but it's pretty much the same, it's enough to praise you."

"Coal boss, you."

Zeng Li's tone was disgusted, but the happiness and happiness in his expression and eyes were about to overflow.

Then I started to read the script, Lu Ping'an put his arm around her and explained to her one by one.

The script given by Chen Jiashang is not bad from the original time and space.

are all "painted skin" skins, telling another story, which has nothing to do with Pu Songling.

Overall, the quality of the script is not particularly good.

But it's really enough for the people.

The key is to smash down the big money and do enough publicity, the key is that you must not use the name of Lu Ping'an.

In this way, it is not much of a problem to make the effect of the original plane.

Of course, after the final film came out, Zhou Gongzi was definitely the one who benefited the most, but there was nothing to be done, to be honest, this scene was half supported by Zhou Gongzi.

Pears can follow the profit and contribute some wonderful shots, which is already a successful completion of the task for her.

"How?"

After reading the script, Lu Ping'an asked.

"Very well, how much are you going to spend?"

"The production cost is seventy or eighty million."

"That's too much."

"Is it much? You don't know how much your man's assets are. ”

"No matter how much is too much, just in case"

"Don't worry, you don't have to doubt my vision, you can't lose, now you just need to think about the role."

"Then I'll push the trick and prepare for the movie."

"No, Mei Sanniang, you can still act like this, and you can still use this for publicity when the time comes."

"Okay, listen to you."

The heroine Pei Rong easily got it.

The other two lead actors are equally effortlessly very.

The next day, Lu Ping'an called Chen Jia and told him that the script was fine, at most he only needed to optimize some details, and let him come to the capital to chat.

Chen Jiashang set off on the same day, and Lu Ping'an also notified Zhou Gongzi and Chen Kun as soon as possible.

Zhou Gongzi is currently expanding his business in the field of music, and he is very busy, but it is ineffective for Lu Ping'an.

Lu Ping'an made a phone call, and Zhou Gongzi suddenly sighed: Finally waiting for you Director Lu!

Since the last time "The Night the Comet Comed" was held, there has been no formal cooperation except for a cameo.

and Zhou Gongzi also expressed the same emotion as Chen Kun.

He, like Zhou Gongzi, has been waiting for Lu Ping'an's call for a long time.

This time, the big director Lu issued an invitation to the male and female protagonists, even if he was not Lu Ping'an's screenwriter and director this time, but the blockbuster investment of 100 million yuan is worth paying enough attention to the two of them.

The actors are basically done, and the next thing is the director and the team.

Although the preparatory work for this kind of magic drama is simpler than that of "Pacific Rim", it does not mean that it can be done easily.

So it's okay to take your time.

During this period, Lu Ping'an took the road to find more talents to reserve.

Uncle Li is right, what is the most important thing in the 21st century?

Talent!

Now he has money, black technology, channels, and resources, but he lacks high-end film and television technical talents.

Lu Ping'an knew that now it was no longer time for him to feed the whole family without being hungry.

Of course, it's easy to rely on "X", but you can't always rely on "fool-proof one-click generation".

You have to reserve some talent.

In the future, "Painted Skin" and "Pacific Rim" will have many projects that need the support of large industries, and they all need to have enough team support.

It just so happens that the Chinese New Year is the time when graduates start to worry about their jobs.

With so many fresh graduates, aren't they ready-made reserve talents?
