You don't understand the happiness of the director

The sales of Mimi's songs are not increasing, maybe mainly because she is not popular enough.

Wang Quan comforted her, "More than twenty people are not bad. If you wait a few months, you can probably buy a car."

In addition to urging Wang Quan to change his ringtone, Yang Mi also congratulated him on joining Jiahe and becoming a movie tycoon in the future.

"It doesn't matter whether it's big or not. The main thing is that I want to do something for Chinese movies." Wang Quan opened his mouth with a tone of worry about the world, which made Yang Mi feel small.

After that, Wang Quan paid more attention to the casting and location selection of "Brilliant Legacy". At this time, the script was completed.

The filming location was set in Qingdao, and the role of grandma was played by teacher Siqin Gaowa, a widow who started a business with her son and eventually became a millionaire. She looked like a modern version of the white mistress.

It was only after Wang Quan called her that she was invited, and it felt like the drama suddenly gained quality.

The director confirmed Chen Mingzhang for "Sheep Herding Star". He didn't want to come to the mainland to work, but the offer was too much.

The choice of young actors is a difficult problem, especially for the male protagonist. He is an overseas student and an industrious second-generation rich man. He also needs to be handsome, otherwise he will easily become annoying.

Yang Mi, "Anyway, I've been looking for a long time, but I can't find a suitable one. Why are all the boys from Nortel so unattractive?"

"Then let's look for those who are successful in the show and those who are in the show."

"It's not suitable either. There is a guy named Zhang Han in the 2003 graduating class of China National Theater. He looks a bit like a rich man, but he feels very greasy at a young age, so I don't like him very much."

Wang Quanxin said, don't worry if you don't like me.

She added, "I also auditioned for a few actors. Xu Haiqiao, who played Liu Yifei's ex in "The Flight Attendant", was pretty good. He is probably the main candidate at the moment. I naively wanted to sign him, but I didn't want to take over Liu Yifei. man."

Wang Quan: These are not even close to each other.

"Then if Concubine Liu Yi doesn't want me, do you want me?" Wang Quan asked.

Yang Mi smiled, "I don't want it either, but if Liu Yifei really wants you, I would like to compete with her."

Wang Quan was happy, "Don't forget, you and she are good best friends."

"Pull her down, she wanted to snatch my egg yolk last time we met, and she wouldn't let go."

Liu Yifei really likes small animals more than Yang Mi. She likes to bring kittens and puppies to her home. She is also very patient.

Finally, Yang Mi asked Wang Quan to help her think about whether there was a suitable candidate for the role, "You must know who is more suitable for the male protagonist you wrote."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Quan started to change the ringtone, replacing Meowing Cat with Fairy Tale Town.

When looking at the list of ring tones, Wang Quan noticed that "Learning to Meow" was still ranked third, and the second place was a new song called "Damn Tenderness".

Wang Quan immediately called Yang Mi, "I have a suitable candidate!"

Nowadays, the trend of drafting is prevalent, and Hu Nantai is unparalleled in this field. Dragon TV is not to be far behind. Last year, it launched "Come on!" "Good Man", if you choose a girl, I will choose a boy.

The winner of the first season is Wang Li...Pu Bajia.

But the most popular one right now is Ma Tianyu, who is ranked sixth. The song "Damn Tenderness" he released last month became a hit all over the Internet as soon as it was released.

At the same time, he was also admitted to Nortel's advanced training class and was considered a member of Nortel's division.

Now Ma Tianyu is also a celebrity, and Yang Mi found his information easily. He looks really delicious.

"He has a good appearance and temperament, but his experience has been too miserable!" Yang Mi couldn't help but sympathize with this boy of the same age, but she was also worried that he wouldn't be able to play the role of a rich boy.

Wang Quan, "I'm just recommending an alternative to you. It's up to you, Boss Yang, to decide whether it's suitable or not."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Quan continued to watch Jiahe's old movies.

Jiahe's stock price is sluggish. Even after he became the owner of a major Hollywood company, it still hasn't improved much. If he can stop the downward trend, it will be a sign of favor from investors.

Going to the mainland to build theaters, coupled with the mainland's good market performance, can increase the stock price. This is what the original space-time Orange Sky Golden Harvest did, but the results are too slow.

Another way is to make a blockbuster movie. Wang Quan has a few ideas in mind, but he thinks it will be released in two years. If we make it now, the Hong Kong and mainland markets are too small, so it will be difficult to make back the money. As a listed company, Making a movie has to be profitable to stimulate the stock price to rise.

The last solution is to let Long Toutou buy the rights to Golden Harvest and make a foreign language film. Once the box office is successful, some articles will be written in Hong Kong, which will be another wave of good news.

As for which film to choose, the only thing I want is the reputation of Jiahe's works being adapted by Hollywood. The adaptation potential of most Hong Kong films is not great, especially the Hong Kong films of the past era borrowed a lot from European and American films, so there is a high probability that King Power will be used. Recreated based on the taste of the North American market.

For some reason, Wang Quan felt that those cops, robbers, and ghosts were not very suitable, but those R-rated movies were quite interesting.

He means it.

After watching all of Jiahe's three-level movies in one night, Wang Quan discovered a few good ideas.

For example, "Female Robot" by Ye Zimei and Chiko Aoyama reminded Wang Quan of two European and American movies that have not yet been released, "Ex Machina" and "The Bionic Wife."

"Female Robot" can definitely delve deeper into science fiction and thriller.

There is also "Red Fruit Lamb" produced by Wang Jing and starring Qiu Shuzhen and Yam Dahua.

A Sheeptail agent who wants to vomit when seeing a gun due to psychological shadow, a beautiful girl who is trained as a killer to avenge her father's murder, and the girl's master and classmates. Such character settings are supplemented by some The colorful plot might make it an R-rated low-budget movie.

Wang Quan felt that a lesbian plot could be added between the heroine Mao Mao and the senior sister Princess to enrich the plot.

There is also a three-part film directed by Er Dongsheng. The title is straightforward, "Sexy Man and Woman". The cast is quite luxurious, including Leslie Cheung, Mo Wenwei, Shu Qi, Luo Jiaying, Xu Jinjiang, and Liu Qingyun.

This is a masterpiece that was shortlisted for the main competition section of the Berlin Film Festival. On the surface it is about making pornographic films, but in fact it is a reflection on Hong Kong films.

However, this movie has its own unique regional attributes, and whether it can be transplanted to Hollywood still needs to be discussed.

In addition, Wang Quan felt that there was another film classified as Category 3 due to violence that was also very suitable for adaptation, which was Fan Shaohuang's "The King of Power".

Many movie fans in North America really like cult movies. Even if the theater box office is not high, as long as the plasma is spread well and the discs are sold, they can eat as much as they want.

Wang Quan even thought about who to play, and it was just that one, Dwayne Johnson, who was full of violent aesthetics when he stepped into it, which was very convincing.

The only problem is that this movie is adapted from the Neon comic of the same name. Even if you buy the copyright of Jiahe, you also need to buy the copyright of the comic. In fact, you can just buy the copyright of the comic directly.

But in order to drive up Jiahe's stock price, it's hard to imagine that he would have to pay two royalties, and then get associated with the Jiahe movie version, let Fan Shaohuang make a guest appearance, or something like that.

After selecting five three-episode films, Wang Quan was worried that Dorothy had not watched them, so he mailed the DVDs to Los Angeles and asked her to watch them first before making a decision.

After Wang Quan took over Jiahe, he also went to the company to work for two days to provide guidance and coordination between the old team, Shi Nansheng, and the mainland team.

During this period, he also made an appointment with Shi Nansheng, Chen Desen, the director of "The Secret Agent".

Chen Desen used to be Cheng Long's assistant, but he wanted to be a director, so he resigned, which made Cheng Long very unhappy. He had always fired others, but this was the first time someone dared to fire him.

However, when Chen Desen came up with the script for "The Lost City" twenty years later, Cheng Long readily agreed to star in it.

However, Wang Quan and Shi Nansheng were not looking for him to spy on the city.

"Director Chen, I heard that you have a script in hand. I wonder if you are interested in cooperating with Jiahe and Wangdao."

"Ah, you also know that script." Chen Desen was a little surprised.

This script was called "October Siege", Victoria's Victoria. Later, when he and Su Zhaobin were working together, he showed the script to him. Su Zhaobin changed one word and it became "October Siege".

Chen Desen sighed, "It has been eight years. I have revised this script countless times and found countless investors. I feel that the cost is too high and it is impossible to make a profit. Are you really willing?"

In fact, this movie was about to be filmed. Chen Desen found an investor who appreciated him. Construction of Hong Kong Central, which was built in Shanghai Magic City, had already started. However, the investor died unexpectedly and all the funds were returned. Originally, his friend Chen Kexin offered to help him find a way. , haven’t figured it out yet.

King Quan, “Can I read the script?”

"Of course!" Chen Desen was very excited. This is an Oscar-winning screenwriter.

At this time, there was still a big gap between the script that Wang Quan saw and the final version. Director Chen had been waiting and making changes. Even the final version was not perfect, but it was already pretty good.

Initially, this movie was expected to earn back its money with a box office of 200 million. If Chen Kexin did not supervise the production, it should be even lower.

According to the comment section, the crew spent 1 million to hire a Hollywood special effects artist to transform Zhang Hanyu into Sun Yat-sen. This is very Chen Kexin.

In the end, Zhang Hanyu showed his face. If you have the money, wouldn't it be better to hire Ma Shaohua directly?

In 2009, this movie earned nearly RMB 300 million at the box office and received a very good reputation. It is a good project worth investing in. As long as the cost is reduced to RMB 100 million, profitability will not be a problem.

Wang Quan hurriedly scanned the script, "I think it needs more polishing."

Chen Desen, "You can take the script away!"

Shi Nansheng said, "So Asen, you are willing to cooperate."

Chen Desen nodded hurriedly.

But Wang Quan added, "I have a lot of projects on hand recently, so it may take some time to revise the script."

Chen Desen, "I can wait!"

If someone is willing to invest, he has no other extravagant hopes. By the way, he can tell Ke Xin later and tell him that he doesn’t have to work hard anymore. A great benefactor has come from heaven!

In fact, what Wang Quan wanted to do was to delay it for a while. When his money is loose next year and the market is big enough to accommodate domestic films worth 300 million, then it will be the best time to shoot this movie.

After settling Chen Desen, Wang Quan is also preparing to leave Xiangjiang. It's already April, and his graduation film hasn't been filmed yet.

Wang Quan has cleared some obstacles for Shi Nansheng, and her ability will be enough to handle the things Wang Quan has asked her to do.

Before Wang Quan and Anna boarded the plane back to the mainland, Yang Mi called, "Have you heard?"

"What did you hear?"

"Liu Yi Fei! She is going to star in Cheng Long and Li Lianjie's movie called "The King of Kung Fu", and she is also the heroine. Filming will start next month!"

Finally, the title of the film was finally decided, and the heroine Liu Yifei was also announced.

As soon as this news came out, the industry was shocked again.

First, it was shocking that the two Kung Fu superstars were really going to join forces for business.

Second, I was shocked that such a huge cake actually fell on the head of Liu Yifei, who was only 20 years old. Are all the four men dead?

Oh, Li Bingbing is still there, she is the second female lead in this movie, supporting Liu Yifei.

Now don't mention how uncomfortable Li Bingbing is, but she still has to force a smile. The second female lead in such a blockbuster movie is better than the low-budget female lead in "Li Mi's Conjecture", right?

Yang Mi was shocked to death by the news. She felt bad all over and felt that she could never hope to surpass her in this life.

Wang Quan comforted her and said, "Follow your own pace. First shoot a few high-profile TV series to get familiar with it, and then think about the movie. I will help you arrange it."

"Brother, you are so kind. When will you come back? I want you to kiss me."

"I'll go and go, there's nothing I can do," Wang Quan smiled, "I want to fly to Spring City to visit the "Li Mi's Conjecture" class."

~

Spring City, the capital city of Yunnan Province, is famous for being like spring all year round, but they come here in spring, so there is no special feeling.

I heard that Wang Quan was going to visit the crew. Wang Baoqiang had already finished filming, but he still refused to leave.

Deng Chao thought to himself, this guy looks simple and honest on the surface, but in fact he is a devilish man.

Even because he has no filming right now, he even took the job of picking people up at the airport, so he could contact Director Wang immediately.

When Wang Quan and Anna walked out of the airport, they saw Baoqiang and the driver. Baoqiang's popularity was average now, and no one recognized him when he walked among the crowd at the airport.

"Director Wang, here, let me help you carry your luggage!" Wang Baoqiang actively made both the driver and Dayao feel redundant.

Later, Baoqiang arranged for Dayao to be the co-pilot, and he, Wang Quan, and Anna squeezed into the back row.

"Director Wang, is this your foreign female assistant? Hello."

"Mud Howl." Anna showed off her Chinese, which was as bad as Bao Qiang's English.

Baoqiang didn't care about Anna either. He really wanted to chat with Wang Quan, but he was afraid of showing his timidity when talking about movies, so he took a roundabout way and looked at Dayao, "Brother, are you Director Wang's bodyguard?"

"Brother Dayao is my father's driver. I was afraid that the public security in Xiangjiang would be bad, so I asked him to come with me."

Wang Baoqiang, "My eldest brother knew he had been a soldier at first sight."

Dayao, who didn't say much, turned around and said, "Did you see it?"

Wang Baoqiang smiled naively, "Although I have never been a soldier, I have played a soldier and stayed in the army for a long time."

Then the topic turned to his military drama "Soldier Assault" which was broadcast last year. Dayao and Baoqiang became very topical, and Wang Quan could also chat with them. His brother-in-law was also a soldier.

But what puzzled Wang Quan was that "Soldier Assault" was shown in the film and television library as the most popular drama of the year. Why didn't he feel it at all~
