Entertainment, I just like making movies

night.

Duplex floor, master bedroom.

The melodious voices came one after another, and even the moonlight in the sky gave way to the enchantment of the ice beauty, leaving only a crescent moon in shame.

A full two hours later.

The two of them just walked out of the bathroom, lying on the bed hugging each other and whispering.

"Ziheng, you really don't want to direct the Spring Festival Gala?"

Andy was wearing a vacuum moon-white nightgown, leaning in Fang Ziheng's arms, her indifferent eyes turned to tenderness, and she murmured softly.

"It's not that I don't want to go, it's just that I really don't have time this year."

Fang Ziheng leaned on the bed, looked at the ceiling above his head, smoked a cigarette, blew out smoke rings and said: "Besides, last year, Feng Pants directed the Spring Festival Gala, and there was a lot of criticism from the outside world. If I take over tonight, it will be fine." , if we don’t do it well, the criticism from the outside world will be even worse, and the gains outweigh the losses!”

The Spring Festival Gala is different from the main theme movie, and we cannot talk about the program alone.

The chief director's status and rights are limited, and there is really not much room for compromise. After all, facing more than one billion or more than two billion Chinese, Chinese, overseas Chinese, and ethnic Chinese around the world, many frameworks must be retained.

Even if I really want to direct the Spring Festival Gala, it won’t be in these two years!

Fang Ziheng has his own ideas. If he is asked to direct the Spring Festival Gala, he will have to come up with something new. He will not chase the ratings of 10 years ago, nor will he make hundreds of millions of people scold him.

Wait a minute, wait until the Spring Festival Gala is scolded by the public first.

At that time, if he is bad every year, he only needs to improve a little, and the audience will feel better by contrast.

Fang Ziheng expressed his feelings for Xiao Jiujiu, which aroused a burst of jealousy.

The end

Andy talked about Hengyu Interactive Entertainment again and planned to focus on TV series and variety shows next year.

In terms of movies, there is Hengyu Media Headquarters, and Hengyu Interactive Entertainment only needs to select some major distributors and take what is ready.

She doesn't want to be a tool, she wants to make some achievements as the chairman of Hengyu Interactive Entertainment and give Hengyu Interactive Entertainment two other territories.

"No problem, I fully support you!"

Fang Ziheng nodded, rubbed the beauty's hair, and said helpfully: "It just so happens that Tangren Film and Television has acquired it for some time. Cai Yunong has served as the deputy general manager. Her talent has been put to short use. Let her work for you as the TV series production department. Director, give her some authority."

"Director of Production Department?"

Andy raised his eyebrows and understood the subtext of his lover.

The production department oversees the quality of the drama and has the role of inspection, supervision, and review.

Cai Yunong's position seems to have been promoted, but in fact, his power has shrunk.

Unlike the TV drama division, which can produce more than a dozen dramas a year, it has access to countless funds and resources, and its power is surprisingly large.

"Okay, look at Cai Yunong's quality. If she stays at Hengyu with peace of mind, there will always be a chance for her to use her abilities."

Andy smiled slightly and agreed to his lover's assignment.

Subsequently.

She turned over and stared directly at Fang Ziheng with her bright eyes.

"I want more"

If you sing well, you will act; if you act well, you will direct!

This is absolutely true. Human beings are social creatures. Every normal person wants to go to higher places, but it is more obvious in the entertainment industry.

November 7th.

Fang Ziheng got up from Andy, and went to Hengyu headquarters refreshed amidst the beauty's reluctant farewell.

Xu Zheng, Ning Hao, and Huang Bo came together to discuss something!

If it were an ordinary actor, Fang Zihengli wouldn't care. Nothing is as important as being gentle with the ice beauty.

But when two great directors and Huang Bo, who was about to become a director, arrived together, Fang Ziheng's attention skyrocketed.

Not to mention, he still has a good revolutionary friendship with the three of them, which was a friendship that started while having sex in the alley outside the Imperial Film Academy.

As soon as Fang Ziheng entered the chairman's office, Xu Zheng, Ning Hao, and Huang Bo appeared in front of Fang Rou's desk.

"Secretary Rou, is the chairman here?"

Xu Zheng looked like a gangster, resting his arms on the desk, tilting his head and asking Fang Rou.

Behind him, Ning Hao wore sunglasses and looked at the secretarial ladies of the CEO's office unscrupulously.

Only Huang Bo was absent-minded, holding a document bag under his arm, staring at Fang Ziheng's office and listening to the news.

Fang Rou was very familiar with Xu Zheng, so she rolled her eyes and said, "Director Xu, why have you gained weight again?"

Every time Fang Ziheng comes back, Xu Zheng will come to Hengyu headquarters for a stroll as long as he is not filming and is in the imperial capital.

The euphemistic name is to get closer to the organization, but the real intention is who knows, most likely she is coming to see the beautiful woman in the CEO's office.

On the top floor of Hengyu's headquarters, in addition to Fang Ziheng's office, Vice Director Lin Feifei, Executive President Zhong Lifang, the President's Office, and the Administration Department also work on the top floor.

When Fang Rou said that she had gained weight again, Xu Zhenghun didn't care and said happily: "I don't understand, this is called gaining weight. It means that I am destined to be rich and the longer I live, the younger I will be."

After saying that, he stood up and looked at the office area next door, and said in surprise: "Hey, why didn't you see Xiaoyun coming to work today?"

"Sister Yun was called by Director An last month, and now she works at Hengyu Interactive Entertainment in the next building."

Fang Rou blinked and gloated.

Xu Zheng suddenly felt embarrassed and said duplicitously: "I got promoted, it's a good thing!"

Xiaoyun is the beauty of the secretarial team. He is itching to see her and would chat with her every time she comes.

I haven’t made a date even after several appointments. How can I miss this girl and fly away!

depressed

Fang Rou saw Xu Zheng's expression and sneered in her heart with contempt.

LSP!

She checked the time and felt it was almost time. She stood up and said to the three of them: "You three, please follow me."

"Okay, thank you, Secretary Fang!"

Huang Bo was so excited that he took the document bag under his arm and smiled at Fang Rou.

dong dong

Fang Rou knocked on the door of the chairman's office twice, and when she heard the words 'come in', she pushed the door open and entered.

"Chairman, Director Xu, Director Ning, and Brother Bo are here."

"Invite them in!"

After receiving a response, the four people walked into the office.

As soon as he entered, Huang Bo saw Fang Ziheng standing next to the sofa, looking at them with a smile.

"Good director!"

Huang Bo quickly stepped forward and reached out to say hello to Fang Ziheng.

He didn't call Director Fang or Director Fang, but the director directly to show respect and intimacy.

As he calls them here, there are also top actors such as Deng Chao, Liu Ye, Huang Xiaoming, Chen Kun and others.

In front of Fang Ziheng, these people would never call Director Fang, but directly the director!

It was as if Fang Ziheng was their director everywhere and could control them at any time.

What an old bitch!

"Brother Bo, why are you getting fat just like Xu Zheng!"

Fang Ziheng stretched out his hand to shake Huang Bo's hand, uttered a weird "Brother Bo" sound in his mouth, and pointed at his and Xu Zheng's belly with a smile.

"I have been working on gaining weight at home these days, and I accidentally failed to control my weight."

Huang Bo scratched his head and smiled sheepishly. Then he changed the topic and handed over the document package in his hand: "Director, this is the notebook I wrote. Please help me read it."

Compared with Xu Zheng and Ning Hao, Huang Bo was not too open-minded towards Fang Ziheng. The first two years were fine and they were just friends.

Fang Ziheng's status is too high now.

No matter how confident and arrogant Huang Bo is, he still doesn't think he can talk to Fang Ziheng and others just based on his status as an actor.

Therefore, he wants to learn from Xu Zheng and Ning Hao as directors.

The advantage of being a director, apart from anything else, just looking at the relaxed attitude of the two good buddies towards Fang Ziheng, is much better than myself.

"Come on, let's sit down and talk."

Fang Ziheng took the file, pointed at the sofa to the three of them, sat down and opened the file.

There are four sofas in total, surrounding a mahogany coffee table, with Fang Ziheng sitting on the main seat.

Ning Hao sat on the left and Xu Zheng sat on the opposite side. The two of them sat down casually without speaking, playing with the Kung Fu tea on the coffee table together.

Huang Boyu sat next to the sofa chair on his right and slowly took his seat. On the surface, he was calm with a bit of a smile, but in his heart he was nervous.

Even when Fang Rou offered him coffee, she just nodded reluctantly and focused all her attention on Fang Ziheng.

It was my first time to write a script and my first time to be a director, so I was very nervous!

At the main seat, Fang Ziheng opened the document and gently read the title of the play on the front page.

【What a show! 】

It is indeed this movie.

Fang Ziheng pretended not to know while flipping through it: "Bozi, this is a comedy, right? What is the story about it?"

"Yes, it's a comedy. It roughly tells the story of throwing a group of people on a desert island, and the various things that happen that are different from those in the urban crowd. It has many comedy elements, but the theme is about human nature and the survival and system on the desert island. "

Huang Bo spoke loudly and neatly drew out the concept of the movie.

There are many desert island movies with various settings and concepts.

"No Survivors".

"PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds".

"Lost".

These three movies are all excellent desert island movies, but there are very few movies about human nature and the social system of survival.

The combination of human nature with survival and social system means testing human nature.

And human nature cannot stand the test the most!

Huang Bo's selection of materials is very interesting, and "A Good Show" is also very interesting.

Immediately, Fang Ziheng stopped talking and read the script carefully.

A low-level 996 person joined the company team, encountered a tsunami during a sea trip, and suddenly came to an isolated island, where a series of stories happened.

The script is divided into five sections to detail the plot, including before and after the trip, encountering the tsunami, going to the island after the disaster, survival on the island, and changes in the social system.

Although the five-part plot is not perfect enough and needs further filling and modification, it can be seen that Huang Bo really put some thought into it and it is not just for fun.

Fang Ziheng watched it carefully at first, but later he commented while watching it: "Five plots, five levels, not bad, starting from the beginning, turning to the end, reversing the contrast, and the highlights can be seen in the subtleties."

"It's not bad. Zhengzi and I also think it's pretty good."

Ning Hao laughed out loud, glanced at Huang Bo who was relieved, and helped analyze: "The core intention of the movie is very high, telling the collision between the real social rules we live in and the new social rules of survival on a desert island.

Above the absurd, everything returns to zero!

A billionaire boss, a goddess-level beauty, a low-level security guard, a newly graduated college student, and a social veteran all face survival, food, and an environment that is completely different from the real society. For the first time, they have no reservations. showed their humanity. "

"Human nature is the least able to withstand the test!"

Ning Hao once again named the theme, obviously very optimistic about this book.

After Huang Bo was slightly nervous at the beginning, he completely relaxed and said with a smile: "I think the conflict and highlight of the story must be between the bottom characters and the rich and powerful people.

Think about it, in the past, a high-ranking big shot flattered a low-level person on a desert island. In the past, the goddess took the initiative to seduce a small security guard in order to survive. Isn't it interesting? "

"really.."

Fang Ziheng finished flipping through the script and continued: "The class confrontation in the back and the darkening of the small transparency can all point out the fragility of human nature."

The script is not much different from the original version of the previous life. The plot, the setting of the characters, the relationships and conflicts between the characters are all remarkable.

Huang Bo is still very clear-headed and knows what he wants.

Many people, or many new directors, have a lot of ideas when they make a movie for the first time.

One moment an inspiration, another moment an idea.

I wish I could put all my thoughts and thoughts into the movie and show off my talent to the public.

The final results for these newcomers can be imagined!

Putting down the script, Fang Ziheng took a sip of tea and said to Huang Bo: "Hengyu has submitted this script. Let Ning Hao take you to the group's literary editorial department and tell the screenwriters your ideas. You will do the rest. Don’t worry about it. Once the film business department and production department have calculated the investment, you can come directly to sign the contract!”

"Okay, thank you director!"

Huang Bo's eyes lit up and he was overjoyed. He stood up and bowed to thank him.

He is not a fool. He knows how difficult it is for an actor to become a director, and it is even more difficult to get investment from Hengyu Media.

As far as he knows, Deng Chao, who made "The Breakup Master" with a box office of 600 million, has not been able to make a second movie so far.

The relationship between Deng Chao and Fang Ziheng is envied by many celebrities and artists, including Huang Bo.

So far, we still haven’t been able to get through the joint review of Hengyu Media’s departments!

One can imagine how high the requirements of Hengyu Media are!

"Don't worry, director, I will do a good job and I will never let you down!"

Huang Bo used honorifics, puffed out his chest and made a promise, and then said: "I have calculated it with Mo Zi and Zheng Zi, and the total cost will not be too high. The most expensive thing is to choose a small island to shoot, 20 million to It can be shot for 25 million!”

As soon as these words came out, Ning Hao and Xu Zheng were quite proud. They had a share of the credit for the establishment of "A Good Show".

However, Fang Ziheng's next words made the two of them feel sour and secretly cursed Mamapi.

"Not enough, not enough!"

"Not to mention 25 million, even 30 million is not enough. If you want to make a good road or desert island movie, the production budget must be at least 40 million.

This doesn’t include your salary, Hiroko. You are the director and the starring actor, so I can’t treat you badly! "

Fang Ziheng shook his head and laughed, rejecting Huang Bo's algorithm.

Then, he asked in a solemn voice: "By the way, how much is your current salary?"

"The external quotation is 10 million, and if the script is good, I will accept it for 8 million. I usually discount Hengyu's dramas, and I will accept it for 6 to 7 million!"

Huang Bo was stunned and told the truth about his salary without thinking.

If he can direct a movie, he really doesn't care about the salary. As long as the movie can sell well or not lose money, it doesn't matter if he doesn't want the salary this time.

He kept looking at Fang Ziheng, wondering whether he should ask for "zero pay" to star in the movie and just pay the director's fee.

Of course, his own studio has to invest in a copy of "A Good Show" and the specific share can be discussed.

It can be said that in order to be able to direct the movie himself, Huang Bo was ready to take the initiative to step back from the bottom of his heart.

"Ten million, okay, then ten million will be counted as your starring salary. You are a new director. The director's salary will be calculated as two million for you, and the total salary will be twelve million!"

"The production cost of "A Good Show" is tentatively set at 50 million, Hengyu will contribute 30 million, accounting for 60%, and your studio can occupy up to 20% to 25%.

It's up to you to decide on the remaining share. I don't have any objection whether it's given to Mouse, Zhengzi, or other film and television companies. How about it? "

Fang Ziheng talked eloquently, and after finishing speaking, he looked at Huang Bo with a smile.

He believes that the other party can feel this sincerity!
