Chapter 12 The atmospheric Han Sanye
Teacher Xie's movements are fast.
Three days later, Wu Yuan, who was waiting for news at home, received a call from Mr. Xie.
On the side of the Youth Film Studio, Wu Yuan can be given 50,000 yuan, although it is not much, but it is already the limit.
Qingying is a school that is established to cooperate with the teaching plans of various departments and give the teachers of the whole school a place for creative practice, which is not comparable with studios such as Beijing Film and West Film for the whole country, and the funds are limited.
On the other hand, there is better news from Zhongying.
After reading the script, Han Sanping, vice chairman of China Film Group and actually responsible for promoting the marketization of mainland films, wanted to meet Wu Yuan and talk to him about the film in person.
Wu Yuan, who got the news, immediately got on his bicycle and rushed to the building of China Film Group.
This year, China Film is not busy, and there are not many employees.
Through telephone contact, Wu Yuan easily connected with Han Dong's secretary, and under the leadership of the secretary, he came to the vice chairman's office on the top floor.
"Knock knock."
"Enter."
Wu Yuan walked into the office with his head held high.
His current character is a young man with a dream of filming, regardless of whether the movie is good or not, the confident momentum must be put out, and there must be a sense of spirit.
If he is submissive, how can he leave a good impression on Han Sanye?
It's a pity that his performance was completely empty.
Han Sanping didn't even look at Wu Yuan, but lowered his head and hurriedly signed some documents.
After signing several documents in a row, Han Sanping raised his head and looked at Wu Yuan who was standing in front of him.
The first impression is not bad, this young man is very handsome, the smile on his face is also very bright, there is no arrogance on his body, and he looks very comfortable.
And Wu Yuan's first impression of Han Sanye was also very good.
The future helmsman of Chinese films does not have the momentum of a superior person, and his appearance is not that fierce type.
Han Sanye, who is nearly fifty years old, has a simple and kind appearance, especially the expression of laughter, which makes Wu Yuan think of Doraemon.
"Coming?"
"Wu Yuan, right?"
Han Sanye stood up with a smile, stretched out his short hand to guide Wu Yuan to the sofa area next to him and sat down, and said kindly: "I read your script, and it is very well written." ”
"No one in China has ever made a movie like this."
"Eight people, one house, one magical night."
"From the beginning of the script, foreshadowing is planted everywhere, and every interaction of the characters, the contradictions between the dialogues, and the subtle changes in the props have foreshadowing and deep meaning."
"It's brain-burning and it's fun."
"It's a bit like Blizzard Heights mode, but with the introduction of new elements that are intertwined with parallel time and space."
"It's still you young people who have flexible brains and can come up with such a subtle and interesting book."
When he came up, he was praised by Han Sanye like this, and Wu Yuan, who praised him, was a little at a loss, and he didn't know how to answer this for a while.
Fortunately, Han Sanye called him over, not just to chat with him about the script.
"I heard your Professor Xie say that the shooting budget of your book is 300,000?" Han Sanye asked with a smile in his tone.
Without waiting for Wu Yuan to answer, he waved his hand and said affirmatively: "300,000 yuan is not enough, this script is so complicated, the actors must have a lot of NG, if you want to shoot well, it will cost more than 300,000 yuan just for the film." ”
"I think the budget should be 500,000."
"I've asked people to check your financial situation, and you can't get 300,000 yuan in hand now."
Han Sanye looked at Wu Yuan meaningfully, and said with a smile: "Are you planning to sell the courtyard house left by your grandfather and raise money for filming?" ”
"You better keep this yard, it will become your most valuable treasure in the future."
"As for this movie, we can still get 500,000 in China."
"The film is under the name of Beijing Film Studio, and the distribution is handed over to us China Film, and you will get a 20% profit share as the director and screenwriter."
"How?"
Wu Yuan was silent.
Where is this Doraemon, it's a thousand-year-old fox.
"This is my first time as a director, aren't you afraid of losing all your money?" Wu Yuan asked hesitantly.
"It's okay, we can afford it!" Han Sanye waved his hand and said: "Huaxia Film needs to support more young directors!" ”
"In the next 20 years, Huaxia Film needs more directors who can make commercial films, make movies that the audience loves, and movies that they love to watch!"
"Our film industry aims to be on par with Hollywood in the United States!"
"There is only one Feng Xiaogang, far from enough!"
Feng Xiaogang was single-handedly supported by Han Sanye.
This year, Feng Xiaogang is already recognized as the king of the Chinese New Year stalls, but at first there was no concept of the Chinese New Year stalls in China.
In 1997, Feng Xiaogang's three works adapted from Wang Shuo's works were killed in the review stage, and all the investment in the early preparation was wasted.
At the end of this road, Feng Xiaogang found Han Sanye, hoping that Sanye would pull him.
The third master is indeed very courageous, and gave Feng pants 1 million, and then there was the movie "Party A and Party B".
And this movie also opened the era of Chinese New Year films in the mainland, and opened up the first popular movie schedule for the wild era of mainland films-the Chinese New Year file.
Feng Xiaogang has also become the first commercial film director in the mainland!
Now, Han Sanye plans to bet on Wu Yuan again, betting that he can become a commercial film director who is as good as Feng Xiaogang and can earn box office!
In recent years, there is really no shortage of art films in China, and the sixth, fifth, and fourth generations of directors are all focusing on the field of art films.
The Golden Palm, Golden Bear, and Golden Lion have also been taken.
That's right, it's Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige!
What the mainland film industry lacks now is directors who can auction films!
It's just that Wu Yuan doesn't plan to make a big commercial film in this era when there are not even 2,000 screens in the country!
However, Han Sanye's request still has to be agreed.
In these years, China Film has taken a fancy to you, and is in a hurry to give you money to make a movie, do you dare to refuse?
Do you still want to get mixed up in this circle?
However, Wu Yuan was still very satisfied with this result.
The house doesn't have to be mortgaged, and there is money to make movies, a good thing.
As for the possibility of making less money, that's not a big deal.
At this stage, Wu Yuan values fame more than money.
As long as the first movie can become famous, will he still be short of money in the upcoming film marketization?
There are so many opportunities for him to make a fortune in the next 20 years that he can't count!
In the first movie, I gave up some profits in exchange for Han Sanye's support, which is a great thing that money can't get in exchange!
Wu Yuan agreed to Han Sanye's request and laughed at his 500,000 yuan.
Next, Han Sanye will be named the producer of the movie "The Night the Comet Comed", but he will not follow the group in person, and will only send a representative to follow the group throughout the process.
This representative is not here to instruct Wu Yuan on how to film, but is mainly responsible for checking the accounts and ensuring that the 500,000 yuan is spent where it should be spent and does not go into the director's pocket.
As for the filming of the crew, Han Sanye is very atmospheric, and he really wants to support the new director, and completely delegate power to Wu Yuan to do it himself.
"It's okay, you can shoot boldly with confidence, even if this movie is not filmed well, it doesn't matter, just accumulate experience."
"As a director, it's normal to have losses and gains, who can guarantee that the first movie will make a lot of money?"
"Your script is so well written, even if it doesn't work this time, you can do it next time!"
"Don't be psychologically burdened!"
With Han Sanye's encouragement echoing in his ears, Wu Yuan walked out of the China Film Building with a smile on his face.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he immediately took out his Nokia and dialed a phone number.
"Hey, eh, Brother Kun, are you free? I have a book here that I want you to shoot! ”
"By the way, do you know any cheap actors with good acting skills? Recommend a few! ”
