Is it okay to not do anything after rebirth?

Na Zhiming knew that the filming of this drama started in [-]. At that time, it was said that a total investment of nearly [-] million was made, but the final box office was only over [-] million, which was considered a blood loss.

But when it comes to the movie environment in [-], it is indeed not as good as now, because in the past [-], the reputation of the most popular movie "A Better Tomorrow" is still there. Taking advantage of this enthusiasm, The box office should be more.

Moreover, this movie is a true classic. If I can help control it with all my efforts and save some money, I should be able to at least recoup the money.

Especially at this time, the audience's taste has not yet been fed by Hollywood blockbusters. This film was released four or five years earlier. The sensational effect will definitely exceed that of [-], and it may not even make money.

John Woo nodded and responded:

"It would be great if that's the case. I was estimating the total investment just now. I think it's almost tens of millions.

If I had the help of Mr. Na in the location selection and the help of Industrial Light and Magic on the special effects, I would be very confident to shoot the film within [-] million. "

Na Zhiming shook his head in his mind. He had carefully estimated that if inflation was taken into account, the [-] million in [-] was equivalent to about [-] billion today.

After subtracting the extra money spent on location selection, special effects, actors' remuneration, etc., as well as the placement of advertisements, I believe it should be possible to control it to [-] to [-] million.

John Woo's estimate this time is a bit too simple, and he will suffer from the current estimate later.

But Na Zhiming didn't say it clearly, he just laid a hint for him:

"John, I'm very happy that you have such confidence, but the two films discussed today are the first and second films of the world-wide culture, and there is no room for error.

Before, I asked Huang Zihua to ask you if you wanted to join Sihai Zongheng, and you said that I would wait for you to think about it.

I don’t want you to think about it now. I want to make a bet with you. I will give you [-] million for this movie. If you can’t film it within these [-] million, I ask you to join Si Hai Zong Heng. "

John Woo was stunned for a moment, and then nodded in the eyes of everyone.

This investment of [-] million was what he said himself, and not only was he fully promised, but no restrictions were imposed on him.

For example, you can rely on your connections, use familiar actors, reduce the pay, etc.

If I don't agree to such a bet, it would be a bit disrespectful.

Besides, it was not that he was unwilling to travel all over the world. When he was most unsatisfied, Na Zhiming came up with the script for him and funded the filming of "A Better Tomorrow."

As soon as the film was released, it immediately aroused great repercussions, the box office was full, and it caused a sensation in Asia and even the world.

Now he has won several awards for this movie, and has been spotted by Hollywood producers. He has received several invitations to be a director.

It can be said that these are all brought to him by Na Zhiming, and he is not the kind of ungrateful person.

But he still has a Hollywood dream in his heart, which is the dream of all film practitioners.

But today I saw Na Zhiming come up with another script for me, and it seemed to be a script specially designed for me. With such a boss and such a company, how could I have the heart to refuse it.

When Na Zhiming saw that he had fallen into his trap, he was overjoyed and asked the butler, Lao Chen, to start the banquet quickly. Everyone would not go home until they were drunk.

There was still a while before the banquet was ready. John Woo asked Na Zhiming:

"So sir, do you have any advice for actors?"

This is what the title says. When an average investor invests in a movie, he or she will make a move to support the person he or she likes.

John Woo knew from the last time he worked on "A Better Tomorrow" that Na Zhiming really just wanted to make a good movie, instead of just giving opportunities to his own company's actors.

But that time was different from now. At that time, Na Zhiming didn't have Sihai Zongheng Culture Company, but now because of this company, he was afraid that Na Zhiming might have other ideas.

How could Zhiming not know what John Woo was thinking, so he pointed at Fa Ge with a smile and said:

"Look, Xiaozhuang is just sitting there.

As for Jenny, she doesn't have many roles, and she doesn't have any special requirements. As long as she's pretty, you can choose Ah Weng.

Police officer Li Ying, none of us here can play the role. I have a candidate to recommend. What do you think of Brother Di Long, who plays mahjong next door?

As for the role of Wang Hai, I highly recommend Cheng Kui'an. "

In a few words, the four protagonists are all settled.

This time, not only John Woo, but also Old Monster Xu gave a thumbs up.

Both of them are veteran thieves who have been immersed in this industry for many years, and have strong abstract understanding ability. When they heard the story of this script, and then listened to the four people recommended by Na Zhiming, they all matched the images in their minds very well, and they couldn't help but change their minds. In my heart, I looked at Na Zhiming with admiration.

At this time, the four mahjong players were also called over. After hearing this, two movies were ordered here, and they couldn't help but be amazed.

Zeng Zhiwei slapped his thigh and said in his unique drake voice:

"Oh, this sparrow hunting was really a waste. In such a short time, I missed two opportunities.

No, Director Xu, Director Wu, you have to leave a position for me. "

Old Monster Xu really fell for his trick and quickly said with a smile:

“Okay, Eric, can I let you be the assistant director?

And you can play a character in it, and with your image, there will be no problem at all. "

Na Zhiming knew that if we talk about Zeng Chiwei at this time, because of his father, his status in Xiangjiang is really unique except for his brother, Ren Dahua, who is the current senior police inspector. There are almost no one else. Dare not give face.

It was not until a thousand years later that he was beaten up in a bar in Xiangjiang, and the police came forward to call Mr. Yang, the famous eldest brother in Xiangjiang, to the police station for questioning.

This is the status his father left him in the Hong Kong police system for so many years.

John Woo is a bit dull, and he is not as sophisticated as Mr. Xu in dealing with these people, and he doesn't know how to answer the conversation for a while.

Na Zhiming smiled and smoothed things over:

"To Viagra, Director Wu's movie doesn't suit your style, so you can only go to Director Xu's side this time.

But you can’t be idle, I’ve also thought about a movie for you, and I’ll give it to you when you come to see me after the [-]th. "

Zeng Zhiwei was just making random jokes, but he didn't expect such a good thing to happen, so he quickly agreed with joy:

"Look at my memory, how could I forget this problem again.

Okay, I will definitely come find you then. "
