You don't understand the happiness of the director
Chapter 178 Go to Jinling and meet Ni Ni (2, monthly ticket 3800)
In fact, Wang Quan was leaving the next day, but he postponed it for Lao Guo.
Wang Quan learned in detail about Lao Guo's ten-year search for his son and how the child was lost. He wrote an article with his photos, photos of the child, photos of his notes and route map of the search, and then posted it on his blog.
In fact, Guo Gangtang is not a stupid person. His ten-year experience of searching for a child is legendary enough. He has actively or passively accepted media interviews before, but he cannot be interviewed by big media, and his influence on local media is limited.
Guo Gangtang looked at the number of fans of Wang Quan and found that there were more than three million. Each of his articles received millions of clicks!
It turns out that he is such a famous person, and he feels that he can speak better than the county magistrate!
He held Wang Quan's hand, burst into tears, and once choked up. This time he met a kind person.
But Wang Quan felt that he was not that kind, he was still quite cruel.
In fact, he already knows where Lao Guo's son is from the comment section, but he can't tell yet. He will use the power of the movie to find him, and at the same time, through the influence of the movie, he will gather the power of more orphans and cause The social level attaches great importance to the trafficking of women and children.
Movies are indeed a means of entertainment, but wouldn't it be better if it also provided positive social guidance while providing entertainment.
So now I can only feel wronged to Lao Guo.
He refreshed the web page. In just a few minutes, there were already over 10,000 clicks and more than 100 comments.
Guo Gangtang was very excited when he saw it. He distributed the flyers himself and it would be good if one person could see it at a time. But this director Wang, it was amazing that tens of thousands of people could see it in just a few minutes!
Wang Quan suggested, "Brother Guo, you can also register an account. I will follow you and attract traffic to you. Your account can also be used to help others find children."
"Yes, yes, I'll find an Internet cafe to do it later."
Wang Quan said again, "Brother Guo, the influence of my post is still limited. At most a few million people will see it, and some of them will just glance at it and not take it seriously."
"This is already very good." Guo Gangtang clasped his hands together.
"Have you ever thought that adapting your experience into a movie can be seen by millions of people, and it can also be broadcast on movie channels after watching it in the cinema?"
"Ah!" Guo Gangtang was stunned and hesitated. Wang Quan didn't quite understand why there was any hesitation in this, such a good thing.
Finally, he gritted his teeth, turned around, and took out a bank card and a few hundred-dollar bills from his underpants pocket, "There is still more than 12,000 yuan in the card. I don't know if this money will be enough to make a movie. If If it's not enough, I'll think of another way, as long as it helps to find a child."
Wang Quan was happy, did he think of himself as a paid film maker? But the other party still took out the money. Thinking of this, Wang Quan felt even more sad.
He pushed the bank card back, "Brother Guo, I will use your deeds to make a movie, and I will also give you a licensing fee. However, my funds are tight here, so it may not be too much. Just don't mind."
"Ah, you don't need my money?" You still want to give me money?
King Quan, "No need."
Wang Quan asked him to leave a temporary address in Spring City. "I will have someone send you the authorization letter later and ask you to sign it. Then I will write the script and invite actors and directors."
"Oh, okay, okay."
After leaving the hotel, Guo Gangtang found an Internet cafe. According to Wang Quan's instructions, he typed letter by letter, registered a blog account, and also followed and sent private messages to Wang Quan.
The charge was based on one hour, and there was still some time left, so he checked Wang Quan on the Internet. He was really not familiar with this person. He was probably a director, and he had never watched his TV series or movies.
Seeing the overwhelming news and introductions about King Power, Guo Gangtang was dumbfounded. Although he didn't know what an Oscar meant, it must be very powerful to be a director in the United States and earn hundreds of millions of dollars.
And he also acquired Golden Harvest. Is it the same Golden Harvest they watched in the video studio when they were children? Is it the Golden Harvest of Bruce Lee, Cheng Long, Hong Jinbao, and Lin Zhengying?
Oh my God, what kind of big shot is this? He actually wants to help himself!
~
Wang Quan called Chen Chuling in Beijing, told her what had happened, and asked her to draw up a letter of authorization and send it by fax to Kunming. At that time, he asked the crew to find Guo Gangtang for authorization, and he took the first step. .
It was originally said that before he officially returned to China, the only way to go was to try the waters in a small way.
The results are great now.
"Li Mi's Conjecture", "Double Food Story", "October Siege", and now there is another "The Lost Orphan", I can't finish filming, I can't finish filming at all!
The choice of director was also a problem, but he had to confirm the actor first, so he called Andy Lau.
Although in terms of acting skills and empathy, he admires Tony Leung Ka Fai more, but Ka Fai is not a superstar, and the sensational effect caused by his starring role cannot achieve the effect Wang Quan wants.
This movie is not a popular theme, so we must work hard on the actors. Just like Mr. Xue’s "Ocean Paradise" about autism, no one will care about Li Lianjie, who starred in without a one-yuan salary, so you have to find the kind of self-sufficient person. A big star with a talking point.
This was Andy Lau's personal phone number. He quickly answered the call and was surprised, "Director Wang?"
Wang Quan, "Brother Hua, is it convenient for you to answer the phone now?"
"Well, I'm filming on the set, but I don't have any roles now, please tell me." At this time, Liu Dehua joined the set of "See the Dragon and Undress" and play the role of Zhao Zilong.
"I want to ask, do you still have a schedule this year?"
Hearing this, Liu Dehua perked up and said, "Yes, I will be free for the second half of the year."
What happened before made Andy Lau want to slow down and spend time with Zhu Liqian this year and next. If "Seeing the Dragon Disarms" had not been accepted before, he would not have wanted to film it.
Liu Dehua asked, "Director Wang, do you need a role for filming? I have no problem here."
Even a superstar is at a disadvantage when it comes to a top-notch director like Wang Quan. Just like Zhang Yimou, he considered it an honor to have him play the second male lead in House of Flying Daggers.
Wang Quan, "This is not a play directed by me. If you have time, I will chat with you slowly..."
Then Wang Quan talked about the incident he encountered today. Wang Quan is a good storyteller, and Yang Mi has a say in this. This is a very touching true story, and it becomes even more moving with his description. .
"Director Wang, do you want me to play the father?"
Wang Quan, "Yes, this is a very challenging role. For this role, you have to act old, ugly and vicissitudes of life, and completely remove the burden of being an idol."
Hearing that he was relieved of his idol baggage, Andy Lau became energetic. He thinks that he is already a capable person, not just for his appearance, but in fact he is handsome in every movie and rarely destroys his image, even if it is To play a fat guy, you have to become thinner and handsome in the end.
"I want to read the script." Liu Dehua was tempted.
Wang Quan said again, "Okay, I will write the script as soon as possible. In addition, the cost of this movie will not be too high. I hope you can reduce the salary to star."
"Of course, no problem. This is a very meaningful thing. My salary is very flexible." The other party readily agreed.
With the male protagonist, Wang Quan can start creating. Although Wang Quan expressed the hope that Andy can master Mandarin on the phone, Wang Quan actually does not have much hope, so he can set the male protagonist to be from Guangdong Province.
Shortly after Wang Quan left by plane, Guo Gangtang met with the assistant director of "Li Mi" in a small hotel. He was ordered to come over and deliver a letter of authorization and a licensing fee of 10,000 yuan.
Seeing that he was really rich, Guo Gangtang refused to accept it, so the assistant director tried his best to force it on him, "Brother, this is my job, don't embarrass me."
In the end, Guo Gangtang accepted the money and wanted to call Wang Quan, but he was on the plane at this time and did not receive the call.
The royal power does not fly to the capital, but to Jinling.
He came to visit the team again, this time to visit the crew of Hideo Umekawa's "Go to Autumn".
This is the third and last day of filming for the crew, just in time.
With such a small short film crew, the local media in Jinling reported this incident and even appeared on "Jinling Zero Distance". The host Meng Fei was very confused. This is Jinling, and the director and the leading actor are both neon people. How could they Dare to come here to film?
And this question is exactly what "Going to Jinling" is about, a story about whether a neon man dares to go to Jinling.
Kobayashi Masakazu was an employee of an American multinational trading company. One day the company decided to send him to China to handle business. He was very happy and asked which city he was going to. The leader said it was Jinling.
This made Kobayashi Masakazu very embarrassed, because he also knew about the Jinling Massacre. This was a deep hatred between the two nations that could not be erased no matter what, and he was a descendant of the guilty party.
He checked the information on the Internet, and some of the pictures were simply shocking. He also heard that the people in Jinling hated the Neon people the most, and he was worried that he would be beaten to death.
But he had no choice but to go, as it was related to his future promotion, so he went there biting the bullet, talking as much as possible, staying in hotels and workplaces as much as possible, and going out less often.
But because he had to work for a long time, it was too uncomfortable to hold back and not go out, so he thought of a way to pretend that he was from the Kimchi country.
Just like that, a neon man pretending to be from the Kimchi country appeared on the streets of Jinling, opening his mouth to speak Asxi and closing his mouth to speak Smecta.
Then he was spotted by an old man on crutches. This old man had participated in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea and had one leg left in South Korea...
The old man is played by the famous actor Mr. Tao Zeru, Golden Rooster Best Actor, Feitian Shidi, a very talented actor.
He is 53 years old and is the dean of the Film and Television School of Jinling Academy of Arts. He has not produced many works in recent years and is mainly engaged in education. After the warm invitation of the president of Nortel and Wang Quan, and because the script was good, he agreed to star.
The script "Going to Jinling" received a Category A creative fund of 500,000 yuan. It didn't require Mr. Tao's friendship to star in it, and the film remuneration was just as per industry regulations.
This is also the student project that Wang Quan has the highest hopes for, so he made this trip specially.
As a result, Wang Quan received a text message of thanks from Guo Gangtang as soon as he got off the plane. Wang Quan could even see tears in his eyes from these words.
After getting into the taxi, I received a call from Dorothy, who greeted him as soon as she opened her mouth.
"What kind of movies are you letting me watch? It made me so angry that I almost called a call girl!"
Wang Quan, "I really think these movies have potential for adaptation. What do you think, do you want to give it a try?"
Dorothy snorted, "Not all of them, right? The theme of "Female Robot" is a bit interesting, and it can go the route of science fiction soft porn, and "The King of Forces", you mentioned inviting Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, I think he fits the film very well."
Wang Quan, "Then you should announce to the public that you have purchased the rights to adapt these two films, and then quietly ask the Tokyo branch to find Tetsuya Saruwatari to replenish the rights."
"What about the script?"
Wang Quan, "You provide a direction and find someone to write a draft first. If it doesn't work, I will take action. I'm quite busy here."
He still needs to polish the script of "October Siege", and there is also a script of "Lost Orphan". The original version is only 60-70%, which he is not very satisfied with and needs major changes. These will involve his energy.
In addition, he is also the Cannes short film selector for the Chinese-speaking region, and he needs to watch the short films submitted by the three places across the Taiwan Strait, including other Chinese-speaking regions.
"Okay," Dorothy said reluctantly, "Oh, by the way, there are two things I want to tell you."
The first thing is simple. "Juno" has been released in North America, with a cumulative box office of 167.4 million U.S. dollars. Because of the more sensational topic effect and more awards than the original film, the box office increased by more than 20 million U.S. dollars, ranking first in North America of the year. 8. The ninth-placed "007: Casino Royale" only cost 150 million, which is simply a mess. It was the biggest dark horse in the North American market in 2006, establishing the industry's leading position in the industry.
No wonder 007 is willing to spend a lot of money to hire him to write a script.
The overseas box office has not yet settled, but it has exceeded 50 million at this time. The global box office of "Juno" has exceeded 200 million dollars, which is the first achievement achieved by King Power.
"Furthermore, Universal and Fox established a video website called Hulu, which took away the exclusive license for these movies from us for the next ten years and gave them a lot of money. The new company is very generous."
"That's it?"
"Of course it's more than that. This video website has just been established. Although the content from Universal and Fox is enough, it also needs more original content, especially TV series. What do you think we should invest in filming TV series now and cooperate with Hulu?"
"Do you have enough energy?" This is what Wang Quan is worried about.
"Don't worry, the company has hired new people now, and I even feel like I have nowhere to vent my energy."
Wang Quan said, "Okay, I have a script here that I received from outside. You are responsible for producing it."
"What script?"
"This script has been written for a long time, but it was rejected by TV stations such as FX and HBO. I accidentally bought it after learning about it. It tells the story of a terminally ill middle-aged chemistry teacher who sells medicine in New Mexico. I That’s the kind of medicine you’re talking about~”
"No wonder people don't like it. It sounds so boring." Dorothy said without mercy.
Wang Quan, "This drama is small in scale and requires little investment. It doesn't hurt to give it a try. After all, this is our first time doing a drama."
Dorothy, "I know you have a lot of excellent copyrights."
Wang Quan smiled and said, "Let's finish filming this first. You can ask Lafite for the script."
Dorothy, "OK."
At this time, the car suddenly braked, and Wang Quan said, "Stop talking, the taxi seems to have hit someone."
Wang Quan glanced at the driver who was sweating profusely and asked you to distract yourself from looking at the foreign girl. Something happened!
Seeing that the other party was riding a bicycle and wearing a high school uniform, Wang Quan also got off the car and took a look, "Little girl, are you okay?"
(Good news, I’ve been banned again. This time I didn’t notice the URL of the bad website in the picture I posted. Let’s do it ourselves in the future~)
