You don't understand the happiness of the director

Yu Feihong was originally a less successful director. Later, she regained some of her reputation by being the producer of "I Heard" and "The Invisible Guest". However, her behind-the-scenes work was not familiar to the public after all. In the eyes of many people, she is still not that famous. successful director.

Many people don't even know that she once worked as a director. The biggest impression they have on her is the fairy Jinghong in "Little Li Fei Knife" many years ago. She was a childhood goddess in the 1980s and 1990s.

And now, relying on the popularity of the twin stars Xianmi, she and her new film "To Youth" became popular before filming, and it has been on the hot search list for several days.

Fans of Liu Yifei are still resisting.

"Maybe Yang Mi is the heroine, but Sissi is probably just a guest star."

"Obviously it's a friendly guest appearance. Sissi's new movie starring herself hasn't been finished yet. It's been filming for a year. Sissi is so dedicated!"

"Furthermore, Director Quan's ghostly heroines are obviously prepared for Sissi. I also asked why Director Quan chose such a theme. Shirley Yang was tailor-made for Sissi, so she must be a guest star this time. ah!"

The real role arrangement will not be revealed until the film is launched. It is useless to say anything now, but Liu Xiaoli still has something to say.

"Why didn't you discuss this drama with me? With your current status and status, what do you think about playing a supporting actress? It would be fine if you were supporting Gong Li and Zhang Manyu, but you actually gave it to Yang Honey, where do you want your fans to put their faces?"

Liu Yifei didn't argue with her. She just spread her hands and said, "Then I've accepted it and signed the contract. What can I do?"

Liu Xiaoli rolled her eyes and said, "Yes, I will delete you from the starring list and change you to a special star."

Liu Yifei felt that this was too pretentious. She couldn't do such a thing. She felt so embarrassed.

"It's okay. I'll contact Yu Feihong in person later and tell her about this!"

Liu Xiaoli was once again proud of her intelligence. If Yang Mi's role as the heroine was not too obvious, she would have demanded that they be promoted as dual heroines, just like Cheng Long and Li Lienjie in "The King of Kung Fu".

Sister Xiaoli glanced at the time and said, "Why hasn't Xiao Wang come back yet?"

"Now he has to shoot a new project. He is very busy and has to work overtime every day. Sometimes, in order to cope with the time difference in the United States, he has to talk to Los Angeles on the phone in the middle of the night." Speaking of this, Liu Yifei was both distressed and proud. Men are the most attractive.

However, Liu Xiaoli felt that Xiao Wang was already so rich, so there was no need to work so hard for herself. If she really liked making movies, she could just make one movie in a few years to enjoy herself, and she could enjoy life the rest of the time.

Wang Quan felt that Sister Xiaoli was right, so he did not work overtime tonight, but went to Nazha's place to enjoy life.

School was about to start at Nortel, and she and Zhang Tianai were back and temporarily living in a rental house in Beiying Community. Nazha excused herself to go out and went downstairs to Wang Quan's house. Wang Quan had already prepared a meal in advance. Bottle of vinegar.

"Ah, I'm talking about making soy sauce~"

Wang Quan hugged Naza and kissed her passionately, "You can say that you remembered it wrong, so instead of eating soy sauce noodles, eat dumplings instead."

"Okay, listen to my brother, they are not as delicious as dumplings~"

After being separated for half a month, Nazha's longing for Wang Quan was transformed into every move, word and deed on the bed. When she was tired, Wang Quan would hold her and talk to her.

"You know, Li Chun from our class seems to have joined Zhang Yimou's crew. It's the Thirteen Hairpins. Although she didn't admit it, I accidentally heard her on the phone once." Nazha started gossiping with Wang Quan.

"Just know it yourself and don't spread it out. Director Zhang is quite taboo about this aspect. He definitely hopes that the actor's sense of mystery can be maintained until the movie is released."

"Well, I definitely won't talk nonsense, and Zhang Yimou is nothing special. I will soon be starring in a movie directed by Wang Quan!"

Wang Quan rubbed her head. It had been more than an hour since she had been out. Zhang Tianai was probably already impatient, so Naza stood up and dressed to leave.

Wang Quan gave a final reminder, "The crew of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" will select actors for "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" from several art schools across the country in a while. Remember to sign up when the time comes. It will be justifiable to choose you to play the role of Queen Jingjue in the future."

"Brother, you are so considerate." Nazha understood that this public selection of actors was actually prepared for her.

After Naza left, Wang Quan took a bath and made sure that there was no smell of her perfume on him before going home. The journey lasted for more than an hour, which was enough for him to recover. Sissi shouldn't notice anything.

Next, Wang Quan no longer has time to accompany them. His private plane will take him, producer Huang Jianxin, original author and screenwriter Tian Xia Ba Sing, photographer Zhao Fei, and artists Wang Huo and Shao Changyong to start scouting locations across the country.

In the past few days, Wang Quan's main job was to choose the right photographers and artists for the movie, which were more important than choosing actors.

"Ghost Blows Out the Lantern" is a two-photographer model, and foreign Lao Huo will also come to work together, because there are currently no domestic photographers who are proficient in 3D technology. All this will start with "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

Domestic photographer Wang Quan chose Teacher Zhao Fei from the Nortel Photography Department. He was also a classmate of Zhang Yimou, Gu Changwei, Zhang Li, Lu Le and others. He participated in "Love Has an Afterlife" and he had just finished filming "Let the Bullets" "Fly" submitted his resume to Wangdao Pictures.

Not only him, but all the well-known domestic photographers want to cooperate with Wang Quan. This is a rare opportunity for self-improvement, but there is only one position. Wang Quan did not even consider the three major photographers in Xiangjiang, but went to the Mainland Among Zhao Fei, Zhao Xiaoding, Cao Yu and others, they chose Zhao Fei, who has long-term cooperation with Zhang Yimou and Jiang Wen.

When choosing an artist, his first requirement was not experience, but having watched "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", so Director Kong Sheng's royal artist Wang Huo and his apprentice Shao Changyong were selected. They were relatively young, especially Shao Changyong. A die-hard fan of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", he later participated in the drama version of "The Ancient City" directed by Kong Sheng.

Wang Dao's staff had already started the location selection work before, and after deciding on a few, Wang Quan still needed to make the final decision. It was best to experience it on the spot, so he simply brought the author, photographer and art on a publicly funded tour. The main destinations are Neimeng, Gansu, Ningxia, Xijiang and other western regions.

In the movie, except for the tombs, which are indoor landscaping, the rest are basically outdoor natural scenes. There are some things that cannot be built together.

Although "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is famous, in fact, there are no successful film adaptations of the first "Jingjue Ancient City". The most successful "Search for the Dragon" is actually almost original. China Film Group did produce one version, directed by Lu Chuan Yes, there was too much freedom, and because "ghosts" are more sensitive, I simply changed the name to "Nine-Storey Demon Tower", which is also mostly original. In addition, it is just an online movie version, and there is nothing to say.

In comparison, King Quan has made a lot of deletions and changes, but it basically follows the context of the original work. Therefore, the above movies have no reference value for him, so he still has to start from scratch.

The beautiful natural landscape is also a major selling point of the movie. Ghost Blows Out the Lamp originally involves the theory of Feng Shui. The eight-part series will take the audience to the north and south of the motherland. As a promotional film, it can also promote the development of domestic tourism.

Although Wang Quan has said that he will wait until he returns from participating in the Oscars before casting, but now the requirements for several major roles have been passed on through the company, including the start of filming in July, and the filming period will be four months.

The most important thing is that "this is a series of movies, and eight movies are expected to be shot. Wang Quan will only direct the first movie, and will participate as a producer in the future. In addition, Hu Bayi and other iron triangles will run through six of the movies, which will span ten years!"

So if you want to get these three roles, you must be prepared to play one role for ten years.

I originally thought that this request would scare away many A-list stars, but it didn't. Everyone was still actively preparing. Maybe Liu Yifei's idea is the exception. She can have a classic role that may last a lifetime, and only play it once every two years. She has enough time. What's wrong with trying something else.

Of course, for the sake of Director Wang, the remuneration for the first film doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you don't pay it. If you shoot six films and spend ten years developing a character, the remuneration must not be too uninteresting.

Lu Chuan has been a little annoyed recently. Originally, Starlight International was planning to collaborate with him on "The Banquet at Hongmen", but they had different ideas. He worked hard to collect historical materials and create the script, but the other party didn't approve. They wanted a good movie, huh, superficial!

So he simply took the script outline and submitted it to Xingmei. They had previously collaborated on "Jinling!" Jinling! ", still the same theme, but the name was changed to "The King's Feast".

Lu Chuan was very confident in this movie and was going to invite Wu Yan to play Xiang Yu. As for Liu Bang's candidate, he thought about it and made a phone call.

"Hey, Yezi!" Lu Chuan called affectionately, because "Jinling!" Jinling! ", he and Liu Ye met and became friends, so he wanted Liu Ye to play Liu Bang.

When he made the invitation, Liu Ye asked, "Director Lu, when will the filming take place?"

"It should be possible in the second half of the year. I've almost finished writing the script." Lu Chuan said confidently.

"Oh, in the second half of the year, Director Lu, I'll discuss it with my agent and I'll get back to you as soon as next month." Liu Ye quickly put down the phone. It's really hard to say in the second half of the year.

Liu Ye and his agency are working hard to win the role of Hu Bayi for him. He has innate advantages. I heard that the original author liked him very much. When he originally created this character, he was based on Zhong Yuemin in "Blood Romance" Created.

The niche landscape has changed in recent years. In the past, Liu Ye was able to participate in top major mainland projects such as "Golden Armor" and "The Promise", and he was protected by the Golden Horse and Golden Rooster actor. He was called a tough guy, but now he is lagging behind. "Tough Guy" "Softened, "Jinling! Jinling! "" also failed to meet expectations, while male stars of the same age next door such as Chen Kun, Huang Xiaoming, and Deng Chao are all striving for the top, and there is also a Huang Bo who has a tendency to become a hit.

There are only so many resources in the country, and Wang Quan's first Chinese-language film is undoubtedly the top resource. In order to win this victory, he did not even immediately agree to the invitation of "The Great Cause of Party Building" sent by Mr. Han. I was afraid that it would conflict with the schedule of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp".

Chen Kun thought the same way. Director Xu Ke invited him to star in "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate". Although the role is not the leading actor, it is not embarrassing at all to be a supporting role for Li Lienjie. The role is very challenging, but the filming time is in the second half of this year. , which made him very hesitant. Although Gui Chuu Deng had not even written a single word, for the sake of this possibility, he had not yet given Xu Ke the correct letter.

If he could play the male lead of King Power, he would not change even if Li Lienjie was asked to play the role.

Huayi Company, Wang Zhongjun just came back from China Film Group Corporation. He went to inquire about the share of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". He heard that Wang Quan was going to give 30% of the share to external companies, so Huayi naturally wanted it, but Mr. Han said that they would For a 15% share, at most 5% can be allocated, and this 5% is not cheap. It is calculated based on 5% of 800 million.

"That's 40 million for a 5% share? The investment in this film is so huge, 800 million. Did he invite DiCaprio? It's a good deal!" Wang Zhonglei said in disbelief.

Wang Zhongjun said, "It was definitely not 800 million at the beginning. It was said to be 600 million. But when China Film Group increased the price, people said that it would still make 800 million. When the time comes, it will participate in the global box office dividends."

Because of its participation in the global dividends of "Inception", China Film made a lot of money last year, which also made major private companies covetous.

Wang Zhonglei thought about it again, "Brother, if the box office of this movie can reach 500 million U.S. dollars, then it will definitely make a profit! With King Power's global influence, is it difficult to earn 500 million U.S. dollars? It's not difficult!"

Wang Zhongjun smiled, "It's rare to see you touting the royal power."

"I call this being realistic. Five hundred million is not even a fraction of the price of "Inception." Moreover, if we participate in the investment, it will also make it easier for the company's artists to compete for the leading roles!"

Wang Zhongjun thought for a while, "I think so too, then I'll give Third Master a call."

"become!"

However, Wang Zhongjun called Han Sanping and was told, "There is no more 5%, only 2%. Do you want it?"

"Ah, why is this the only thing left?"

"Bona 2%, Guangguang 1%, I am much happier than you." Han Sanping said.

"Third Master, the remaining 2% must be kept by our Huayi, I will vote for it!"

Han Sanping laughed. Although China Film invested 90 million for the 15%, the 5% was quickly sold for 40 million, which is actually equivalent to 50 million accounting for 10% of the investment share. There is almost no risk. Haha, I am really smart. !

Wang Zhongjun told Wang Zhonglei about this matter, and Wang Zhonglei sighed, "It seems that everyone is optimistic about the market potential of this movie."

"I hope Wang Qiankun's son will not disappoint us."

Wang Zhonglei said, "Oh, by the way, Xiao Ming and Deng Chao have been having trouble getting along recently."

Wang Zhongjun, "It must be for the role of Hubayi."

"Yes, Deng Chao feels that the company is pushing Xiao Ming. He feels it is unfair and is getting angry."

Huang Xiaoming and Deng Chao are the first and second brothers of Huayi, but the second brother is not convinced by the first brother, especially since the male lead in "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is undecided. Deng Chao also wants to overtake in a corner, so he treats the company unfairly. Increasingly dissatisfied.

If the company didn't help him fight for it, he would fight for it himself, so he called his daughter-in-law Sun Li, who had just received her certificate, and prepared to treat their friend Yang Mi to a meal.

Huang Xiaoming: What's your ability to know Yang Mi? I not only know Yang Mi, I also know Liu Yifei!

"Hey, Sissi, what have you been busy with lately..."

Please vote for me!
