Chapter 111 Let Me Come
"No, no, it's just that you have to stop the show tomorrow morning, and I have to do other things." Wu Jing's tone was light, but it could be heard that there was still something behind it.

Han Sheng paused, a little puzzled in his heart, the other party must have not finished what he said.But the other party didn't mention it, he just said: "Oh, I was shocked, I thought the whole filming stopped."

It is not a trivial matter for the crew to stop filming, especially for a big crew like "Wolf Warrior 2".

Because just like those people in "Longing for Life" before, it would be difficult to follow up if they stop; let alone such a large crew, if the people don't shoot, the daily rental cost of the equipment is scary.

Fortunately, the matter is not that serious yet, Wu Jing said: "It's not that the crew has stopped, but something has been delayed. So we may have to speed up the progress in the next few days, and it may even cost you an extra day. It's really sorry."

He knew that Han Sheng joined the S-level project of Shanhai Century and was the protagonist.

Wu Jing also made many TV dramas before.

He knows very well that the itinerary for filming TV dramas is actually much tighter than that of movies. Temporary adjustment of time may not be impossible, but it is certainly not an easy task.

So Wu Jing paused for a while, and said: "But if you don't have time, we can make arrangements."

"That's okay, there's still time for a day, I'll just report to the director."

Han Sheng nodded and said, "You can go to work tomorrow, I can just sleep in."

"Okay, thank you so much then."

"It's okay, it's not a big deal, I'm one of the investors anyway."

"One size fits one size for this."

Wu Jing and Han Sheng were polite for a long time, but still insisted on saying thank you.This is where he can stand in power, knowing that he must thank others for something, instead of Han Sheng just saying that there is nothing wrong with him.

But after hanging up the phone, Xie Nan still cared: "Is there any problem?"

Wu Jing nodded: "Han Sheng is fine, so it's not a big deal on our side."

He really had to delay this day.

Because how should I put it, since the filming started, many problems have happened to the crew—remember telling him two days after the filming started that it was a bit over-budget?After filming, I realized what was the budget that was exceeded at the beginning?

How about exceeding the standard in all directions in the future? That is a sad reminder.

In fact, Wu Jing thought about it at this time, and it was quite painful. He thought that he could shoot at will if he had so much money.Of course, this kind of thing can only exist in the imagination, because the budget is always insufficient.

Especially there is a big money burner,

Special effects team led by Sam Hargrave.

This foreign team is called a waste of money. All the equipment and accessories are sent from abroad. Not to mention, there are also various problems during the shooting, and the money is also flowing out. The key is that they really do things with the money. , did really well.

Nor is it a deliberate waste of money.

So in fact, when the filming was in mid-August, the funds were in a hurry.

"Hey, this problem has been solved. But I'm thinking, if you can't get new investment, is the money from last time still enough to spend?"

Wu Jing turned around and said something to himself again.

After overspending, he backhandedly mortgaged his villa and returned part of the funds.However, it seems that this part of the funds will not be burned too much - after all, filming costs money, and funds must be reserved for post-production and publicity.

"You don't," Xie Nan said, "do you want to continue investing money?"

"Forehead"

"It's better not to, you have invested 8000 million in total, the wind is too strong."

Xie Nan still couldn't help persuading him: "Everyone says don't use your own money to make movies, but you are right, almost half of it is your own money."

She has seen a lot of people in the industry lose money by themselves, and that is real money.

Although the situation of the two does not mean that they will run out of money if they really spend it, but 8000 million is invested in a movie, and it is a movie that is seriously overrun, so it may still need to be carefully considered.

You can't put eggs in a box, can you?

It's not that Xie Nan doesn't have confidence in this movie, it's just that it's not a solution to increase investment again and again.

What's more, Wu Jing himself is also hesitant. He has been in the circle for so many years and naturally understands, so he said: "Isn't there anything I can do? The investment has not been smooth these days. No one wants to continue to invest in such a high-cost military film. It’s not very popular, and not many people like to watch it. I’m going to meet this one this afternoon, and I’m willing to talk about it because I heard that Han Sheng is in the group.”

Everyone generally feels that 7 to 8 million is the peak.

Even if there is Wolf Warrior 1 in the domestic market, but based on the experience of the previous game, it is still a minority in the final analysis.

Xie Nan could only sigh: "It's okay, there will always be."

"It has to be there sooner."

Wu Jing shook his head, because he didn't have enough funds to shoot something anticlimactic, which was not what he wanted.

Especially at present, the shortfall happens to be the money to go to Africa for filming: "But it doesn't matter, if the negotiation can be reached this afternoon, I will visit it as normal tomorrow; if the negotiation fails, then I can only give up face "

During this period of time, Wu Jing's investment in attracting newcomers was almost not going well.

Those who are willing to come have actually come before.But now, it’s like when Liu Zhenwei, who had worked with him before, was found to invest in it, the other party said a word, stop filming, no one will watch it.
So when the circle is not optimistic,
He made an appointment with a big investor in the circle, saying that he hadn't seen him for a long time, but actually planned to rely on himself as a guarantee to ask for a wave of investment.

And because there are demands from others, the time is all said by others.

It will also delay tomorrow morning.

In fact, he also sincerely hopes that the negotiation can be concluded this afternoon, otherwise it is not good to ask for investment under the banner of visiting others, and he would even rather do it himself.

But the people around him persuaded him, he is not good, just be so stubborn.
"What's the matter, I won't take pictures for a while, and I will take pictures for a while."

"Oh, it's nothing. Brother Jing can't shoot tomorrow morning, so it will be delayed for a long time. Let's go to the set as normal tonight."

Han Sheng put down the phone and explained to Jiang Xixi.It’s not like he was anything else. He just spent one night in a hotel in the city to go to the crew. It was not much different from sleeping in the crew hotel tonight.

But if you go there early, if you wake up earlier, you can go to the set to get acquainted.

After all, it’s been a long time since I’ve filmed, and it’s the main event again. It’s better to be familiar with it than to come up directly.

"Okay, let's continue talking about this variety show?"

After Jiang Xixi heard this, she continued to vigorously promote "The Birth of an Actor" and said: "You can at least have a guarantee to enter this program group, and the lineup of this program is also quite good. Liu Ye, who became famous in his early years, Song Dandan. But Zhang Ziyi, I don’t need to say too much, the three golden actresses, with so many masterpieces, she will definitely praise you if you are in it, and your "Sword" will be aired at the end."

"Hey, this thing"

Han Sheng can't say he's wrong, because acting skills are not so demanding in "Sword", mainly because the plot is not bad and the characters are suitable.

But it has to be admitted that things are different this time.

It's the first time to star in an S-level variety show, and it's not at the time of the original time and space. It's hard to say whether the audience will buy it or not.

Of course, the more important thing is that when he appears in a starring role, he officially enters the competition in the film and television industry.

The cake in the music industry is small, and Han Sheng is not following the traffic route, and he will still be touched by people from time to time; in the film and television industry, if the leading actor of a certain drama really becomes popular, he will probably be attacked. It's best to prepare in advance.

"Alright, then you should contact me first."

Han Sheng paused for a moment, but still nodded and said, "However, we must also discuss various precautions in advance, for example, it is best not to match me with a master of acting skills, and then we will see each other, and I also I really didn’t think I could learn much acting there.”

"Of course, you don't need to be on a show to learn acting skills."

Seeing that Han Sheng agreed, Jiang Xixi smiled and agreed: "Its essence is still a variety show, but the form is replaced by a performance."

Just look at this schedule.

If you really want to make a good film, then you must give at least one or two weeks to prepare, and everyone should communicate in real time.

As for the role, it must also conform to the characteristics of the actor.

Of course, the most important thing, even if it's not a real scene shooting, should be to try to build a similar scene for shooting.

Anyway, Han Sheng just watched the format of the show and performed it directly on the stage without saying anything else.Good guy, what about the lighting and camera position? The instructor is a well-known actor but he may not be able to direct a good show.
Han Sheng paused, and couldn't help thinking of another variety show in his mind.

"Hey, what are you laughing at?" Jiang Xixi was a little strange.

"Oh, nothing, just thought of something."

This other variety show of the same type that Han Sheng thought of was indeed more refined than this one in many aspects.

Including the lineup is also very topical, and many golden sentences and room cards have been born. Oh no, anyway, it is not only the students who show themselves, but some instructors also let many people see clearly what is under the surface of him.

But Han Sheng didn't think much about it.

Looking back, the two variety shows have already been finalized.For the time being, he is not in a hurry to take on other jobs, because next year will definitely be Han Sheng's big year:
Not to mention the release of "Sword of Heaven", "Wolf Warrior 2" will also be released, and he feels that although music does not follow the traffic route and does not make much money these days, good music will still have positive feedback.

At that time, these things will slowly come up, Han Sheng's worth,
That's another story.

The time came to 8 o'clock in the evening, "Wolf Warrior 2" hotel.

Han Sheng is chatting with Frank Grillo.

The other party was quite excited, because apart from the interpreter of the crew, it was rare to meet such an actor with good English. Basically, there was no problem with normal communication, so I just asked all kinds of questions.

"Han, I watched your drama, you are the best in it."

Frank heard that he could not drink alcohol, so he poured him a full cup of tea, and then said curiously: "I didn't expect you to be a master of martial arts, can you teach me too, I really want to learn some."

Han Sheng had a headache.

How should he explain to this foreigner that his martial arts in "Jianghu" look strong, but in fact they are all learned routines, so they can't be taken seriously.

And, why are you looking far away?
But he still took the teacup and said: "That's only in the drama, in fact I don't know anything. If you really want to learn, you should go to Director Wu Jing."

"No, no, you are a different type, he is that, you are that"

As he said that, Frank also made a "fairy-like" pose.

It's just that if this pose is replaced by a crooked nut that is five big and three thick, it will definitely be. The picture is so beautiful that he dare not look at it.

Han Sheng was silent for a while, and said: "Actually, director Wu Jing also had that kind of experience before."

Just kidding, isn't it just a costume drama?

Arrangement of "Little Li Flying Knife"
So Frank also looked at it, and said tactfully: It's really good, but it feels old, and many things are still worse than now.

"Maybe it's because I just watched a short part, and I can't understand the feelings in your drama."

Frank rubbed his head and said in embarrassment: "I know that there is a big difference between Eastern culture and our Western culture, especially this kind. Maybe I prefer to watch your performance in "Jianghu". You are handsome and special. Cool, and the special effects are also good”

This. Han Sheng can understand.

But if you want to talk about special effects, then Han Sheng really has it: "I understand, then I have to recommend you a movie that director Wu Jing also starred in, "The Legend of Shushan""

A vibrato mixed clip was sent, when the other party was amazed by the weapons, pictures and special effects inside.

Han Sheng said leisurely:

"By the way, this movie was made 15 years ago."

Under the shocked expression on the other party's face, Han Sheng quickly sipped his tea to cover it up: the most brilliant thing about this movie is the special effects, so it's called a fairy tale drama, if you can fly, you don't have to leave.

It's just that the plot is a bit worse.

Of course, it might not be much worse than that now.
"What are you talking about, so happy?"

At this time, a voice suddenly came from behind, a little tired.The two looked back, wasn't this Director Wu they were talking about.

"Let's talk about directing your movie."

Frank excitedly said: "Look, I have saved a lot of photos of you!"

Wu Jing didn't quite understand, but looking at the pictures on his mobile phone, the first one is his ancient style.

"." He suddenly felt speechless, and this was nothing else.

It’s like going back to read the news in the Qzone when I was in junior high school, or reading the diary I wrote at that time. It was indeed written by me at that time. I didn’t think it was a big deal at the time, but now it looks like
It can only be said that the past is somewhat unbearable.

"OK, OK."

Wu Jing waved his hand, then turned his head to Han Sheng and said, "Tell him that I'm too tired today and I have other things to do, so I won't chat with you."

"Okay." After Han Sheng translated it twice, Frank was startled - yes, I have something to do too!

He said goodbye immediately and left.

It was Han Sheng who asked curiously: "Why are you so tired after going there? When I came here today, I didn't see you."

"I went to find some money."

There were no outsiders, and the matter failed to get done, so Wu Jing finally opened up and said: "The crew is overspending now, and they have to invest more."

"Looking for people everywhere, but failed to negotiate. I have invested too much myself, and people around me have advised me not to vote again."

His news was so sudden that Han Sheng was stunned for a moment.

Seeing this, Wu Jing patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, tomorrow I'll see if I can hire someone for a relationship or something, if not, I'll continue to put it on, can it make the movie not go on?"

"You should sleep well, tomorrow afternoon the talk will be successful, and the filming will start normally."

Wu Jing turned around, ready to go back.

But before he took two steps, a voice suddenly came from behind him: "How far is it, how much?"

Turning his head, Han Sheng's concerned eyes...

It made him swallow unconsciously.

"...Not a lot, but certainly not a lot."

Han Sheng is an investor, so Wu Jing just thought about it and made a statement: "The domestic auction is almost done, and the remaining 2000 million should be enough. To be sure, 500 million."

At the end, he reassured again: "There will always be someone to invest in."

Well, even though he had been looking for it for almost half a month, he still couldn't find where the person who wanted to invest in him was.

"Safety Point"

Han Sheng suddenly felt very miraculous.

Well, I keep saying that he is popular. Apart from popularity, the thing that can reflect this matter most is money.

It seems that he doesn't have many activities, but I yearn for him as an investor, he is expensive for commercial performances, and he is an endorsement.After signing the endorsement, it is equivalent to immediately getting his future income for a year or two, which must be quite a lot, and don't forget that Han Sheng didn't pursue those luxury brands, but chose good quality and good price.
He originally planned to buy a house, but never found a suitable one.

Now, Han Sheng could only calm down and breathe.

Try to speak in a calm tone: "Brother Jing, if it is difficult for you to find investment, I have saved some money in the past six months. If it is 500 million, I really have..."
