prodigal director

Chapter 199 Jumping into the Yellow River can't clean it up【Wan Geng Subscription】

"why?"

Wang Lexin is a little unhappy. She promised to arrange a new movie for me when I come back from a one-month business trip. But now the new movie is gone, and even the TV series originally prepared for me are gone!
Hao Huan said truthfully: "Because you can't shoot this TV series well!"

Wang Lexin's tone was full of disgust: "Why can't I make a good film? I have made several films, and the market response is so good."

Hao Huan said: "As far as you are half-baked, if you shoot this TV series, at most you can shoot "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai". It is twice as long as "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai"! Let me say this, do you think you can still make a good film?"

Wang Lexin was surprised and said: "Twice? Doesn't the ratings have to reach 4%? The online broadcast volume can't be an average of [-]-[-] million episodes?"

Hao Huan said to himself: "Maybe! Anyway, I changed my mind temporarily and I won't shoot for you! Besides, I haven't filmed a TV series yet. As the first TV series in my life, if it doesn't make a splash, how can I be worthy of my big name?" The name of the director?"

"Forehead……"

Wang Lexin said in a bit of disappointment: "What about me? You said that when I came back from a business trip, you arranged for me to shoot a new movie..."

Hao Huan looked at her frustrated look as she was addicted to filming, and felt funny in her heart. This stupid pig has been led astray by me!

Now she feels uncomfortable if she doesn't shoot a movie for a day, right?
He thought for a while and said, "From tomorrow, you will arrange for me to prepare for the filming of the new drama, and I will write a movie script for you to shoot in two days."

"it is good!"

Wang Lexin cheered up instantly, and asked, "Then what is the theme of this TV series? Costume drama or modern drama? Is it suspenseful or thriller?"

Hao Huan did not hide anything, and said: "The title of the TV series is "I Have a Date with a Zombie". It is a modern drama with a love horror theme. Of course, the level of horror is average."

Wang Lexin said in surprise: "Zombies? Isn't this subject unflattering? Since "Mr. Zombie" became a hit at the box office, there are now zombie-themed film and television dramas everywhere. In just one and a half months, there are online dramas Several zombie-themed TV series have come out, but none of them have received good reviews. After a while, I feel like there will be zombie movies that follow suit. Will it be a thankless task to make a zombie-themed TV series at this time?"

"That depends on who shoots it! Can they compare with me? Whether it's a movie or a TV series, it depends not only on a good script, but also on the director's high level! It's also a bad movie and a bad drama!"

Hao Huan finished eating the lobster and started eating hairy crabs. Speaking of "Mr. Zombie", it will be released soon!

He turned to ask: "How much is the box office of "Mr. Zombie"?"

Wang Lexin took out her mobile phone and said, "It was 39.88 billion yuan at noon, and it may have exceeded 40 billion yuan now!"

After looking at the total box office, Wang Lexin regretted: "Well, 39 billion yuan, not yet 91 billion, but tomorrow should be fine."

Hao Huan said: "This is already very good! If I hadn't put up 8000 million yuan in a lottery to attract viewers to buy tickets, you wouldn't have expected to break through 40 billion yuan for a crappy movie like yours!"

Wang Lexin pursed her lips and said, "Anyway, I would be satisfied even if I don't have 40 billion! The box office is so good, which shows that my director level is also good, which is great!"

"No ambition!"

Hao Huan said: "Since you are so lacking in ambition, then I will just write you a movie script, let you make a bad movie and let everyone spray it until your mind collapses!"

"You can't do it casually!" Wang Lexin hurriedly stopped him.

Hao Huan chuckled: "Eat, you! The non-stop twittering affects my appetite!"

"..."

It's not that I want to twitter!

It's not because you're twittering that I'm twittering!

Now that Hao Huan stopped chattering, and she was not allowed to chatter, then she should shut up obediently and eat big lobster and hairy crab, and eat this sweet and delicious seafood porridge.

After you're done.

Hao Huan burped, he hadn't had such a luxurious seafood meal for a long time.

A seafood meal worth tens of thousands of yuan for two people is really not something ordinary people can afford. Even if Wang Lexin has money now, she is not willing to be so extravagant and wasteful, but if she eats with Hao Huan, then she can feel at ease. Enjoy this luxurious meal!
Eating and drinking, she is best at it now.

"belch!"

Wang Lexin cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks, she was full...

Hao Huan went back to his study, took advantage of the fact that his brain had digested a lot of information, and calmed down a bit, and immediately typed on the keyboard, writing out the shooting plan and main points of "I Have a Date with Zombies".

By the way, I will also write about the director's experience and experience this time, and make up for the details that have not been dealt with in the past.

This knowledge can benefit Wang Lexin a lot!

So taking advantage of Wang Lexin's return from a business trip, he yelled at Wang Lexin who was cleaning up the kitchen: "Pack up your things and don't go back. I'll sort out the shooting plan, and then you go back and make arrangements for me!"

"Oh!" Wang Lexin responded loudly.

two hours later.

It was already quite dark, and after eight o'clock, the total box office of "Mr. Zombie" had reached 39.93 billion yuan, which was only 40 million yuan away from breaking through 700 billion yuan!
If it weren't for Hao Huan's lucky draw on Weibo, the current box office of "Mr. Zombie" would not be so high, and the daily box office increase of 200 million is already very good.

But after Hao Huan posted the lottery on Weibo, the box office has increased by [-] million in the past two weeks!

It can be seen how influential Hao Huan is, and how many real audiences his 8000 million yuan lottery has brought!

Wang Lexin doesn't refresh the box office anymore. It is impossible for "Mr. Zombie" to break through the 40 billion box office today. It may be possible tomorrow. After that, it is estimated that the box office will not rise, but after it is released, it will reach 40 billion box office. I'm already satisfied.

This will soon be her second movie with a domestic box office of over 40 billion yuan!

At the beginning, "Painted Skin" also gritted its teeth and broke through the 40 billion box office before it was arranged to be screened.

Today, in the domestic box office list, 40 billion box office is among the best!

The films directed by her and Hao Huan accounted for exactly half of the top ten domestic box office charts!
Box office No. 1: "Infernal Affairs" 64.33 billion yuan.

Box office No. 2: "Lost Delta" 61.03 billion yuan.

Box office No.3: "Decisive Battle" 56.89 billion yuan.

Box office No.4: "Return to Soul Night" 47.13 billion yuan.

Box office No.5: "Painted Skin" 40.61 billion yuan.

Box office No.6: "Mr. Zombie" 39.91 billion yuan [unreleased]

……

In the first six years, except for "Decisive Battle", they made the other five movies!
And these 5 movies are all produced and produced by Hao Huan!Although two of them were directed by Wang Lexin, the honors won by the films cannot be separated from Hao Huan.

Hao Huan and Wang Lexin are almost dominating the domestic box office list now!

From now on, I'm afraid the two of them will directly occupy the top ten box office!

Think about "Inception" that will be released in the next summer vacation. If it doesn't hit the street, then this movie is obviously another movie that can enter the top ten domestic box office charts.

In this way, among the top ten movies in the domestic box office list, there are 6 movies in the name of Hao Huan!
Fortunately, there is also a "Decisive Battle" sandwiched in it, otherwise the first ten miles would really be Hao Huan's world!
Another hour later.

It was past 9 o'clock, and Wang Lexin almost fell asleep.Hao Huan asked her to wait, but it turned out that more than three hours had passed.

If she had known it would take so long, she would have gone back to take a shower before coming back. Now, she dared not tell Hao Huan, for fear of disturbing Hao Huan's work thoughts.

Lying on the sofa and yawning, Wang Lexin was thinking about it for a while when Hao Huan's voice finally sounded.

"Come in, I'll explain the work to you!"

"Oh!"

Wang Lexin quickly put on her slippers and walked into the study.

Hao Huan babbled about things he wanted Wang Lexin to remember, and made arrangements for the filming of "I Have a Date with a Zombie" in the past few days.

As an actor, he is better than Liu Yuxi.

Among the actresses he knew, Liu Yuxi was the only one who could play the role of the heroine. The key point was that the actress who played Ma Xiaoling in the original work had a pair of eye-catching legs. In addition to being good-looking, Liu Yuxi also had such a pair. She has eye-catching long legs, so it would be much better for her to play the role of Ma Xiaoling.

If it weren't for the fact that he had to shoulder the position of director, Hao Huan also intended to play the role of the hero Kuang Tianyou.

But for the quality of this TV series, he has to devote himself to the filming of the TV series. He can't direct and act on his own like the original "Returning Soul Night" and "Infernal Affairs".

But if he really can't find a good male lead, he can only bite the bullet and go for it, at most he will work hard on himself.

After telling Wang Lexin what to keep in mind, Hao Huan let Wang Lexin go back to take a shower and sleep.

He also needs to take a good rest to let his brain relax. Otherwise, he will be bald in less than two years after using his brain intensively!
……

Returning to Wang Lexin in the building next door, she made a quick call to Liu Yuxi as soon as she got out of the shower.

After explaining the situation, Liu Yuxi was a little surprised!
"Hao Huan actually wants to make a TV series? What's going on with him? Making movies is not more profitable than making TV series! Is it because he feels invincible in the country when he makes movies, so he wants to change from dominating domestic movies to dominating domestic TV dramas?"

Wang Lexin sighed and said: "Originally he wanted to prepare a script for me and let me shoot it! But he suddenly changed his mind and said that I couldn't make this drama well, so he decided to shoot it himself!

Now in the starring list, he said that you are allowed to play the heroine, and he also said that you can't refuse, otherwise you can't find a more suitable heroine, and you won't be able to arrange roles for you in future movies. "

"..."

This is forcing me!
Liu Yuxi said unhappily: "It sounds like I don't care about making his movies! Anyway, I don't care. If I don't like the script, I won't make it!"

Wang Lexin said: "I will send you the script, and you must shoot it! Otherwise, the boss will blame me for not doing things well, and then I will be unlucky."

Liu Yuxi snorted coldly: "Forget it! For the sake of poor you, I will reluctantly accept this show!"

Mouth dislike body integrity ah!

Although Liu Yuxi said that she disliked it, she had already agreed in her heart!
After all, this is Hao Huan's first TV series in his career as a director!With Hao Huan's current reputation and level, how bad is the first TV series he directed in his life?

So this is Hao Huan's first time, even if she has a busy schedule, she still has to make time to shoot!
Anyway, she can only hug Hao Huan's thigh tightly now...

Wang Lexin was satisfied with this: "Then it's a deal! The script has been sent to your mailbox, you can read it first, I have to contact the other leading actors."

It was late at night, and Wang Lexin started to get busy after returning from a business trip.

Although Hao Huan asked her to start arranging the filming work tomorrow, any work should be dealt with early, especially this kind of temporary filming work.

If the lead actor happens to be one day late because he has received other announcements and is unable to spare time, then we can only consider replacing other actors.

However, what you say is what you come!

In Hao Huan's list of starring actors, there are really a few people who can't spare time to film this drama. Even if Wang Lexin said that this is Hao Huan's first TV series, the other party is not too excited. After all, for Hao Huan It would be too risky and a loss for them if they broke the contract because of the TV series they liked.

What if Hao Huan's TV series are not as successful as his movies?
At that time, wouldn't he have picked up the sesame seeds and lost the watermelon, and even paid a breach of contract fee!

Even if Hao Huan's TV series becomes popular, it can't be as popular as his movie, so these star stars who have expired are not considering making Hao Huan's new drama.

Wang Lexin saw that it was not too early at this time, so she was not in a hurry to report to Hao Huan. When she woke up early in the morning, she made breakfast and sent it to Hao Huan's room, and then reported to Hao Huan who woke up on time: "Boss, in the list of actors you listed, the actors and stars who designated male one and male two all expressed that they were not available and couldn't make time. Besides, the rest of the starring stars, Yin Tian and Xu Zheng, also had their schedules expired and refused Invited to shoot."

Hao Huan rinsed his mouth and asked: "Where is Liu Yuxi? She doesn't dare to refuse!"

Wang Lexin proudly said: "Sister Yuxi reluctantly agreed under my stalking and hard work!"

Hao Huan brushed his teeth and said, "I'll find a suitable actor when I go to the company later."

"Oh."

Wang Lexin said: "Then I will draw up an audition plan first."

……

the next day.

There are still 21 days before the release of "Inception" in the summer vacation, and now "Mr. Zombie" has finally broken through the box office of 40 billion, and there is only one week left before the release.

Hao Huan thinks that the current pace is quite good. One movie is released and another movie is released. On average, a movie is released for two months, and there are exactly six movies in a year.

Although it doesn't sound like much, but for the peers in the industry, the output of this movie is even more terrifying than the output of sows!

Many directors spend a year or two making a movie, and some take a year or two just for post-production. As a result, the movie that takes such a long time to make is not as good as the movie that Hao Huan just spent two months to make. The movie is awesome!
However, Hao Huan is the only one with this output and quality in the whole world!
They also want to make several movies a year!But even if it is shot, if the quality is not good, will it still have to be sold out?Doesn’t it have to be sprayed out?
Therefore, not all directors can be as perverted as Hao Huan!

……

three days later.

"Inception" has started to be submitted for review, and there are only 18 days left before its global release. From now on, the film's promotional film will gradually be presented to the audience.

At this time, the casting of "I Have a Date with a Zombie" is also caught in a dilemma. Hao Huan has not been interested in the male lead selection for a long time. All the actors said that they couldn't turn down the announcement and declined the invitation.

So Hao Huan gritted his teeth and decided to work harder and play the role of Kuang Tianyou. Otherwise, if he was not satisfied with the casting, the TV series he produced would also not be satisfactory.

So he stopped arranging new movies for Wang Lexin, and said: "If I direct and act myself, I need your help to direct, so I won't arrange new movies for you! But this is also a good thing for you, when the time comes I will give you a good lesson when filming this drama, and you will improve a lot when you make the next film in the future!"

"Oh."

Although Wang Lexin was a little regretful, she immediately became interested when she heard that Hao Huan said that he would give her lessons, which would help her make great progress.

……

After 4 days.

"I Have a Date with a Zombie" has finished filming and officially started filming!
At the same time, "Mr. Zombie" was released, with a total box office of 40.73 billion yuan, surpassing the box office of "Painted Skin", becoming a new box office record for domestic films in Wang Lexin's directorial career!
And taking advantage of the popularity of "Mr. Zombie" after its release, the launch promotion of "I Have a Date with a Zombie" immediately attracted the attention of countless viewers and netizens!

As the first TV series in Hao Huan's career as a director, after the title and introduction of this TV series were posted on the Internet, it immediately attracted mixed comments and opinions.

As a TV series that clearly follows the trend of "Mr. Zombie", can Hao Huan come up with new ideas?

And after the starring list was exposed, Hao Huan and Liu Yuxi suddenly appeared on the hot search together!
In "Returning Soul Night", "Infernal Affairs", and now "I Have a Date with a Zombie", Hao Huan and Liu Yuxi have played couples three times!

Therefore, Hao Huan felt that jumping into the Yellow River would not be enough to wash him off this time!

Even he was belatedly aware that this guy and I have actually acted as a couple three times?
