Zhao Hong started to head to the mainland in June, and the movie "A Chinese Odyssey" is about to start filming.

He originally wanted to start in July, but he learned that the temperature in Zhenbeibao was very high in July and August, which was not suitable for outdoor dramas. After all, the temperature at around 40 degrees is really not so easy to accept.

Therefore, Zhao Hong had to shoot outdoor scenes in advance, so it was no surprise that she went to the mainland in advance.

When they went to the mainland, they booked a plane directly.

"Director Zhao is really too luxurious. He will pack these more than 300-seat planes.

"It's so rare. Do you know that the budget for the movie we filmed is 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and chartering a flight is simply a little bit."

"Axing, how much is your salary? Can you tell everyone?"

"Haha, not much, it's actually very similar to everyone."

“Is there any share?”

"Well, there is 10% of the box office in Hong Kong."

"Wow, this is also amazing. I seem to have heard from the director that this movie has a box office of 70 million in Hong Kong. If it can be achieved, it will be a dividend of 7 million."

"Yes, Liang Xiaoxiao and Fa Ge like to share the box office share in filming movies. I heard that if you are lucky, it is more than twice their own pay."

"That depends on which company's movie is. Only our company will not make fraud. Other film companies, haha!"

"Yes, some time ago, Andy Lau made a movie for Yongsheng. I heard that the box office was not good, so they didn't even want to pay the money. Fortunately, the company came forward to solve this problem."

...

Zhao Hong had very sensitive ears. As soon as he got on the plane, he heard the whispers of many people in the crew.

It was also a smile on what they said.

The system of box office dividends has always been the way DreamWorks adheres to.

Everyone makes money and everyone takes risks together when they lose money. This is a good system to ensure that the film company can always have money to shoot blockbusters.

He saw Lan Jieying who had just flew, and looked tired, so he asked with concern.

"Jie Mui, are you not having a good rest?"

"Well, don't go to the mainland for a few months. I'll go to the press release these days."

Lan Jieying said with a little smile.

She just gave birth to a fat boy last year and then returned to filming. She is now extremely happy.

As for running the press release, it is actually just to make money to support the family. His husband is an outsider and a young executive at DreamWorks Preservation Company. Of course, the money she earns is not as much as she earns.

In this case, she worked harder.

"Your kid is still pretty?"

"The little guy is very good. Now it's been a year, and I'll stand up..."

When Lan Jieying talks about her son, she talks endlessly, and her face is full of happiness.

Zhao Hong also likes this ending very much. In the original time and space, he is not a fan of this movie or fan, but when he saw such a golden flower, he ended like this, and he sighed a little regretful.

"Director, I'm in a bad mood, so just enlighten me!"

After Zhao Hong and Lan Jieying chatted for a few minutes, Doudou came to him in a coquettish voice, looking dissatisfied with desire. What does this mean?

"Doudou, I see that you are in great condition now. You have also filmed fewer movies in the past two years. You often travel around and live a good life!"

Zhao Hong saw Doudou in a red dress, a melon-shaped face and a cherry mouth, full of temptation.

This girl has become Buddhist in the past two years, and is not so urgent about film awards or becoming famous. She only shoots one or two movies a year, and travels all over the world for the rest of the time.

Even Zhao Hong is a little envious of this kind of life situation. He hasn't taken a trip that he can go on without hesitation for a long time.

"I'm empty!"

Doudou said without hesitation.

A pair of big eyes flashed at Zhao Hong.

He regretted it a little now and shouldn't have let him play Princess Iron Fan. During this period, Ada Choi was still a little smaller, and Doudou, who was similar to her temperament, was attracted by Zhao Hong at first glance.

He thought this was the most suitable candidate, but the result was not beyond his expectations.

During the audition, her performance of Princess Iron Fan was really vivid.

Especially the lines in it are just easy to understand!

Zhou Xingxing and her both had relationships and were comparable to each other.

In fact, the story of the American Journey is relatively simple. It tells a love story of sadness and joy that spans time and space, but the requirements for every actor are relatively high. It is still a bit difficult to find an actor to perform the essence of everyone.

Zhao Hong talked to everyone on the plane. At the beginning, everyone was a little afraid of him and felt a sense of alienation with him.

This is mainly because he stood too high, which made them feel a sense of looking up.

Zhao Hong's kind conversation was approachable, which gradually relaxed the defense in their hearts.

There is a reason for Zhao Hong to do this. He doesn't want to always have a sense of distance between himself and the crew, and the movies shot in this way are flawed.

The entire crew is a group, and only everyone thinks and works together. This way, when shooting a movie, you will get twice the result with half the effort.

When Zhao Hong was communicating with the crew, she found that Zhou Xingxing was also a person who likes funny things in real life, and this was not like himself in original time and space.

Now he has a double harvest of career and love, and Zhu Yin and him are the objects of envy on the plane.

Zhao Hong, a man who has experienced many battles, couldn't stand it if he sprinkled some dog food from time to time.

"Director, we plan to shoot this movie and get married directly. You must come at that time!"

"Haha, sure, sure."

"Congratulations, you are really golden boys and jade girls!"

"Yes, we must invite you then."

...

After hearing this, the rest of the crew also sent congratulations, saying that they must attend their wedding.

Uncle Da smiled when he saw this situation. He had a special relationship with Zhou Xingxing. They lived in a community after he arrived at DreamWorks.

The two met when they were poor, and there were many opportunities for them to play supporting roles in the same movie.

Until now, they still appear in the same movie at the same time.

But there is a little change, that is, he is still a supporting role, while Zhou Xingxing is the protagonist.

He had only joy and no jealousy for this situation.

I remember that when he was young, he was also a young actor and had filmed many protagonists. He had already seen the honors and status.

As long as the script is OK and you can make money, then take it.

Now that Uncle Da saw that Zhou Xingxing was getting married, he looked pleased with an old father.

When Zhao Hong and the others arrived in the capital, they had a meal here, and the rest of the crew took the train to Ningxia directly.

Zhao Hong has to stay for a day or two, and this is not about meeting her old lover!

That's just by the way, well, by the way!

He was in order to meet with Director Cheng of Beijing Film Studio. This time, they also put some efforts into "A Chinese Odyssey".

In recent years, as long as DreamWorks and the mainland co-production films are being brought together, they will be able to get the screening rights in the mainland by doing their best. They have made a lot of money.

Zhao Hong doesn’t expect to make much money from the mainland now, it’s just to cultivate the market.

Besides, I can’t share the accounts yet, so what’s the point?

"Comrade Xiao Zhao, you are so amazing! Your name has been coming from over the years. Cannes and Berlin really give our compatriots a face. Do you know? When the news of the award was passed back to China, everyone felt as happy as the New Year."

"Becoming a factory director, it's too good to be a good person. In fact, there are no big deals in mainland China. There are many filmmakers who are better than me."

"Comrade Xiao Zhao, don't be too modest. Whether this thing can win the award can be seen by everyone. Your movie is very artistic, and it is a key textbook in Beijing Film Academy, Central Academy of Drama, and Shanghai Academy of Drama."

"Haha, I love it so much."

...

Zhao Hong and Director Cheng chatted for a long time, but they didn't get to the point. They ate hot pot at Donglaishun, and bragged while eating.

When he thought of eating hot pot, he had a special liking for Donglaishun. Every time he came to the mainland, if he had a class reunion, he would definitely start Donglaishun.

It’s not that Zhao Hong and her classmates can’t afford to invite everyone to dinner at a good restaurant, but that this is where they can better eliminate the awkward atmosphere that the classmates should have had a long time ago.

After drinking and eating, Director Cheng said: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, I'm really a little embarrassed. Every time you cooperate with us, you will take advantage of you."

"It's just that there's no way. We don't have money to invest. You don't know that the benefits of our factory have become worse and worse in the past two years. If we didn't work with you, we would probably not be able to pay our salary."

"I promised to reform some time ago and reform the cinema chain, but after I mentioned it, there is no further information. We really don't dare to make big productions now, which is only one or two million movies. What do you think such a movie can do?"

"I can't do anything, I can only shoot experiments for promising and spiritual directors..."

When Director Cheng mentioned the current situation, he complained a lot. Zhao Hong could be an audience in this situation, and as for others, he was really powerless.

Many things are only after mistakes, and I know that this thing is not good and I can't do it like this.
