Chapter 230: Interview

Magic City, the head of the Nanpu Bridge, Li Qian stood on the top floor of the Huangpu Building, looking at the Nanpu Bridge across the Huangpu River not far away.

It's been almost a week since I came to the magic capital, and after discussions with the magic city government, propaganda, culture, transportation and other departments, "I Am Legend" has finally obtained the permission of all departments.

Whether at home or abroad, in order to restrict traffic filming in big cities, it is necessary to obtain various permits.

It's just that I've gotten permission, and I'm still asking for the consent of the Modu government for specific occasions.

But then it's simple, Modu Film Group, a subsidiary of Modu Dawen Broadcasting, will participate in the investment and distribution of "I Am a Legend".

The boss of Modu Film Group is responsible for the heavy discussion on behalf of Wenguang and the propaganda mouth, and accompanied Li Qian to choose the location.

has made three movies, and Li Qian is also a big celebrity in China.

Fame is something that you can't see or touch, but it's very useful.

A white ding, famous enough, can also let the government help you.

Zhang Yimou is now filming in Yicang, and the media has reported several times that "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" has received preferential treatment locally.

The best hotel in the local county, after the coordination of the government, the original 1880 a day luxury suite, only 380, 180 a day standard room, also only 80.

In order to cooperate with the shooting, the local county also set up a "filming co-ordination", that is, a shooting assistance office.

It was filmed with the crew, and it is said that to shoot the scene of the heroine taking a boat, the filming co-organizer rented a wooden boat from Yichang all the way away, but after filming, it was found that the schoolbag he carried when he got on the boat was gone when he got off the boat.

This goof, it's a goof, and it's a remake,

The next day, he asked the filming co-organizer to transport the boat back from Yicang, which was 90 kilometers away, but it was too troublesome to go back and forth, and the crew asked the filming co-organizer to buy the boat directly.

There is also a filming co-organizer who set up a pavilion for the hero and heroine to meet and a pier for the play, all of which are free.

"The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" was also on location in Yicang Yiling, and the district party committee also gave it a request for "solving the reception cost of film shooting", and the reception fee was 230,000 yuan in the reporter's interview.

And there is also a condolence list from the local government on the Internet, two or three hundred catties of pork, five or six hundred eggs and so on.

There is not much money, but the attitude of the city and county governments is enough to see how effective Zhang Yimou's reputation is.

and Chen Kaige, who built a city when filming a movie, in order to cooperate with the filming of "Zhao's Orphan", Xiangshan Film and Television Base specially spent a huge amount of money to build a Spring and Autumn Warring States City.

But last month, the platform collapsed on the day of the press conference, sending 10 journalists to the hospital.

As one of the largest cities in China, of course, Modu will not take the initiative to serve the crew like other cities, but Li Qian is still welcome to shoot here.

......

On the top floor of the building, constantly looking around, Li Qian said with some regret, "It's almost okay here, just bomb the Nanpu Bridge, but unfortunately there are only tunnels on Yan'an East Road, and there is no bridge, otherwise it would be an excellent location." ”

The bridge is about to be closed by the government, closing all tunnels and bridges, and a large number of people living in Pudong are rushing to cross the Huangpu River, but there are soldiers at the bridgehead to test everyone and confirm that there is no infection before they can be released.

However, the virus has spread, not to mention Pudong, the whole magic capital is not safe, and some rich people and dignitaries have arranged for planes to leave.

As a military expert who is studying the virus on the front line, the military sent a helicopter to the actor to transfer his family, but as soon as the helicopter took off, the hero's wife had uncontrollable symptoms, causing the plane to have an accident and crash on the Nanpu Bridge.

also happened to fill in the pit where the actor used the privilege of his identity to ask the inspectors to repeat the monitoring for his wife who showed that she was in danger.

There was a problem with the first monitoring, and I relied on the right to ask for another monitoring, and this time it was fine, but as soon as I got on the plane, there was an accident.

As a bystander, you will definitely applaud and scold you for deserving it.

It also shows the severity of the virus, and even the specially researched instruments cannot determine whether it is infected.

It would be nice if the bridge was on top of the East Yan'an Road Tunnel, connecting the Bund and Lujiazui, two iconic areas of the magic capital, much better than the Nanpu Bridge in this remote area.

When checking the information, Li Qian found a funny thing, as if when the Nanpu Bridge was built, it was too biased, so many people in the magic capital didn't know that there was another bridge on the Huangpu River.

"Even if there is a bridge, I estimate that it will be difficult, and it will be difficult to open it to the crew even late at night for three nights. ”

Ren Zhongyan shook his head, this Li Qian is too picky.

This is the magic capital, not comparable to any city except the capital, those second- and third-tier cities meet directors like Zhang Yimou, Ma Xiaogang, and Li Qian, and it is estimated that a section of the road in the city center will be closed for a week.

But this is the magic capital!

In the early morning hours of Nanpu Bridge, filming for the crew for three nights was already won by Ren Zhonglu.

And also agreed to clear the square around the Oriental Pearl TV Tower for Li Qian to shoot, this is good to say, the surrounding square is not a must-pass, but some tourists, it is not a big deal to open to the crew in the morning, this is originally the magic capital optoelectronics.

After getting off the Nanpu Building, the group came to Nanjing Road again.

As the most prosperous business district in the magic capital, Li Qian plans to shoot the scene of the actor wandering aimlessly in broad daylight.

The prosperity of the past, and the emptiness of the present.

"Street closures are for sure. ”

All the way down, Li Qian pointed to both sides of the street and said, "When the time comes, all the flowers, trees, and burned cars will be arranged, and we will create an apocalyptic scene of nature triumphing over civilization." ”

Ren Zhong said, "If Nanjing Road is to be closed, the price is not small." ”

This is the magic capital, or the most prosperous business district in the magic capital, and it is not satisfactory to describe it as a daily income.

Moreover, there is no need to advertise in the Nanjing Road business district at all, and there are countless passenger flows every day.

Li Qian also knew that he would be eager to change to a small city, but it was different in the magic capital.

"It doesn't take too much time, the five-day working day is from early morning to nine o'clock in the morning, the crew comes to prepare in the early morning, starts filming at dawn, finishes work at nine o'clock, and returns to the original state after an hour, try not to delay the business of the merchant, and we can also give a certain amount of compensation. ”

That's pretty much it, but you'll have to ask for the advice of the business.

Under the leadership of the local street, Li Qian negotiated with the merchants for a whole day, and finally after paying a price of 2 million, he obtained the consent of the merchants, the street, and various parts.

This price is not high, it can even be said that it is very low.

Closed streets, no one can have in the camera.

Not only these businesses, but also all aspects involved, the transportation department alone has to plan in advance for the traffic problem.

I stayed in the magic capital for two more days, and waited for the approval of the government and various parts in other places to successfully complete the task of this trip.

The price paid is also a lot, 2 million yuan is still a trivial matter, and the Oriental Pearl Tower, Nanpu Bridge and other places have also confiscated money.

However, this is all converted into the investment of the Modu Film Group, which is equivalent to the support of the Modu government, plus the 1 million from the Modu Film Group, in exchange for 10% of the investment share of "I Am a Legend".

The production cost of "I Am Legend" will be about 80 million, and more than 50 million will be used for special effects and rendering in the later stage.

Rendering costs the most, and it can be said that how much time and how much money is spent on rendering determines the final effect of the special effect.

The city after the end of the world is not finished if the building is old, and the road is not a grass that can be dealt with with in the past, and there is no flaw on the big screen.

......

Before leaving the magic capital, Li Qian was also ceremoniously entertained as a heavy responsibility, and many people came to the big and small media and the entire magic capital media system.

However, Li Qian didn't know anyone, and the bosses of Wenguang didn't come.

It's normal not to come, Xue Jian, the boss of Dawenguang, was the deputy secretary general of the Demon City Mansion before.

I don't know anyone else, and it's the first time I've seen him.

After finishing the business, Li Qian also gossiped, "Dong Ren, I heard that the entire Magic Capital media system is going to be merged and split, and the Magic Shadow Group should be divided separately this time, right?"

Ren Zhongyan smiled, "Hehe, Director Li is also interested in the media industry in the magic capital?"

"It's just curious, Zhongguang Group was dissolved four years ago, and this time I heard that the nine subsidiaries of Wenguang are going to be reorganized, and it is estimated that it will be a big change. ”

In fact, the optoelectronic system of various provinces in China is different, there is a group system, and the group group, Xiangnan Optoelectronics Group, Jiangning Optoelectronics Group, and its film groups and TV stations are all under the control of the group.

There are also people like Ludong, the main station system, Shanying Group and Ludong TV are both under the jurisdiction of Ludong Radio and Television Station.

There is also a deep town, which is also a different system, and there is also a separation of television and radio.

The General Administration has tried various systems across the country, and in 01 merged a number of state-owned enterprises such as CCTV and China Film into Zhongguang Group, which is the same production as the magic capital.

China Film belongs to Zhongguang, and Magic Shadow belongs to Wenguang.

However, a few years ago, Zhongguang was disbanded, and Zhongying returned to the photoelectric direct tube.

This time Wenguang is restructured, it is estimated that the Magic Shadow Group can also be independent, and there is no need for another leader on the head.

And maybe you can get some benefits, you must know that after the dissolution of China Broadcasting Group, the largest media group in China, its nine major subsidiaries, the market value of the Oriental Pearl alone is as high as 44 billion.

At this critical moment, Li Qian suspected that Ren Chongzhi had done his best for more than a week, and he was more busy than Li Qian, just to take advantage of the big sale of "I Am a Legend" to gain political capital for himself.

Well, the film business is definitely the main one.

Li Qian guessed right, the entire Magic Capital media system is running up and down for the split and reorganization, and it is imperative for the Magic Shadow Group to become independent from the media and broadcasting, but the responsibility is also to hope that in the reorganization, the Magic Shadow Group can get more.

All the joints were opened, and Ren Zhongzhi also seemed very happy, and touched a cup with Li Qian again.

"Then Director Li, I wish our cooperation goes smoothly, and the movie is a big hit. ”

"Thanks to Ren Dong's help. ”

"By the way, Director Li, at the opening ceremony of the Modu International Film Festival next month, I don't know if you have time to visit. ”

"No problem, there is still time a few days before the start-up, so I will definitely come. ”

Li Qian responded to this little thing, although he was not interested in the Magic Capital Film Festival.

As the only international A-class film festival in the country, it is even higher than the Golden Statue and the Golden Horse in terms of level, but the influence is really not good, it is not as good as the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers, and even the college student film festival is a little more lively.

......

However, a month later, on May 10, the day of the opening ceremony of the Magic Capital Film Festival, Li Qian, who originally thought he was here to make soy sauce, was tired all day.

In order to enhance the influence of the Magic City Film Festival, most of the three parties of Optoelectronics, China Film and Magic City are specially organized, and various meetings are non-stop.

In the evening, after a busy day, Li Qian received a call from Han Sanping again.

"Okay Han Dong, I'll see you later. ”

Hanging up the phone, Li Qian was a little inexplicable, what was Han Sanping doing with himself.

I am not familiar with Han Sanping, and I have no contact, and I have the opportunity to talk about things at various meetings during the day.

Probably not a good thing.
