Chapter 21 The cards are not enough
The people in Hong Kong are too small!
Basically, a movie was released, and the evaluation of it the next day was already known to the whole city...
People don't need to run away from the roadshow promotion...
Especially for actors with a name for themselves - they have more than a dozen movies a year, so how can they have time to promote?
Therefore, their understanding of publicity is limited to appearing on variety shows and premiere, and they know nothing about the online and offline proposals proposed by Chen Mengxi...
But it makes sense.
Chen Mengxi's words are concise and concise, "Promotion is to advertise, so that all movie fans know that such a drama is released. The current movie environment is too bad. If a drama is released, if the reputation is good, at most three days, high-definition pirated versions will appear online...'
Of course, what impressed Yu Weiguo the most was the saying, "Asian new star directed the film, and the other five films have lost money. You don't want your boss's money to be wasted. Let's do this, I invest 2 million, accounting for half of the investment!"
Well, actually, Yingyi Entertainment didn’t think "Crazy Stone" is so awesome. It’s all-treading dialect and can’t understand it at all…
From the producer's perspective, what Yu Weiguo wants most is to recover the cost...
A total of 3 million was spent, and now 2 million was recovered...
Have you played stocks?
Under this premise, why not cut the flesh quickly?
Stop loss!
What's more, 2 million yuan is still profitable if you exchange half of the investment!
...
The agreement has been almost completed, at least the intention has been reached, and a dedicated person will be responsible for the specific handover matters in the future.
Chen Mengxi offered to say goodbye, he was too busy...
The casting of "Double-Side Sticker" and the scene of the Contemporary Nods Waiting for him!
Yu Weiguo found a hotel to practice it for Chen Mengxi...
Chen Mengxi: "After the movie is finished, I will leave it to us, and I will help find a distribution..."
Before Ning Hao could speak, Yu Weiguo was excited: "Really?"
"…Of course, such a good movie must be accompanied by a powerful distribution company!"
"You...can you... find a distribution company?"
"Western Ying, Zhongying, choose whatever you want!"
Blow out the awesome first...
However, it doesn’t matter that Han Sanye of the Original Time and Space can be seen in "Stone" this time, and the first choice is definitely China Film.
As for Xi'an Film Studio, it was his base. Although he was lonely, he still had distribution strength. Otherwise, he would not have invested in the production of "The Great Sage of Love"...
"Very good!"
"However, Hua Ge may need to cooperate with the publicity!"
"Don't worry, as long as he can sell it, he will definitely cooperate!"
Yu Weiguo knows his boss very well. If the movie cannot be sold, he will not say anything. Once it is sold, he will be more excited than anyone else and wishes to tell the world that the producer and investor of the movie are him...
Why?
Just make a name for yourself!
It is easy to understand. When it comes to Liu Dehua's level, the box office sales of the movies he starred are a pursuit, and the work he participated in is also a pursuit...
If you blow it up, that's called saving Chinese movies!
Chen Mengxi looked at Ning Hao and said, "Leave the next drama to us. As long as it does not exceed 20 million, I can buy it!"
“…I did it…”
Ning Hao was secretly happy, he was holding his arms to his thighs...
There is no intention of being disliked by money at all. As an artist, the most important thing is to find a funder who is willing to support him.
"By the way!" Chen Mengxi continued: "There are some good actors in your movie. Do you have their contact information?"
"Yes... do you want to find them to film?"
"Well, there is a script that I think is very suitable for Xu Zheng, Huang Bo..."
"What script?"
"I wrote about the embarrassing journey home from the Spring Festival travel rush, called "Lost in the Hit"..."
""Lost in the Road"?"
"Yes, the investment is not big. I'll make up for it. It can be finished with a maximum of 4 million..."
4 million…
Yu Weiguo was decisively interested: "You can still write scripts?"
Chen Mengxi: "Of course, I am the screenwriter myself!"
“Aren’t you a writer?”
"I studied literature..."
Ning Hao: "Mengxi's "Rose Red Lotus" was bought by director Li Shaohong, and I asked director Yau Litao to shoot it together..."
"I know this!" Yu Weiguo nodded.
The same thing is said, Hong Kong is too small and there is no secret at all. Whoever cooperates with whom can tell you a little bit of inquire.
Chen Mengxi looked at Yu Weiguo and asked, "Do you have any ideas?"
"Even if I have ideas, I don't have money!"
"..." Chen Mengxi smiled and turned her head to continue discussing "Lost in the Road" with Ning Hao: "This is a road film, two characters, one is the elite and the other is the grassroots. Put these two people together, and then add jokes to it..."
I still think it's bad. His cards are not good enough, and it's not as good as someone giving money if he asks for creativity...
Hong Kong filmmakers are not that stupid!
Ning Hao was excited: "Do you think Xu Zheng is very suitable for playing the urban elite style?"
"Well, he does have the unique philosophical and smart characteristics of Shanghai men..."
"Huang Bo is a little bit short of playing a honest grassroots?"
"Actually, the best choice is Wang Baoqiang..."
"Wang Baoqiang...yes, he doesn't have to act. When he goes to that stop, the character will stand!"
Chen Mengxi: "What do you think?"
"…You want me to direct it?"
"It's a bit of a waste of money. Let's do this. I'll find a director and how about you being the producer?"
Then I put on the original cast of "Stone" and created it. With the influence of "Stone", coupled with the quality of "Lost in the Road", it will be no problem to achieve 30 million!
Ning Hao was a little hesitant...
Chen Mengxi looked at Yu Weiguo and asked, "Brother Yu, how much is the cost of general film production?"
Yu Weiguo was stunned for a moment and answered honestly: "Depending on the market, it can range from 100,000 to 1 million!"
Chen Mengxi nodded: "Then take the intermediate value, the production fee is 500,000!"
"...Then...then I'll do my best!"
...
There was no shock in the circle about the news of the project of "Double-Side Sticker". Liu Liu has not created "Snail House" yet, but is just a well-known writer.
Huang Lei’s role as producer did not cause much discussion. At this stage, everyone is talking about Hong Kong dramas and Taiwanese dramas...
However, for actors, one more project means one more choice.
"Double-sided tape" is not a big production, nor does it have audition-style casting. Several protagonists have been decided, and there are still a few supporting roles left, so the actors have gathered together...
As Chen Liming's unfamiliar wife, Sister Nan must have booked a role.
Other actors were invited by their connections...
They are basically all about Huang Lei and Teng Huatao’s connections. For example, Huang Lei found Mr. Tian Shui to play Sister Cai, the colleague and friend of the heroine Lijuan;
Yaping's relatives, including his sister and cousin, are all Huang Lei's students...
Teng Huatao found his old partner Feng Jiayi to play Professor Tan...
Only a few supporting roles in one or two episodes left for Chen Mengxi, who are around 25 years old...
Twenty-five years old, I can!
You can do nothing!
When I returned to the company, Sister Nan had already arranged it, and they were all her classmates...
Chapter completed!
