Ning Dongsheng actually knew that there were some things he had to do.
For example, what Zhao Mingyang said, asking three girls to be mentors is ridiculous, but if you calm down and think about it, these three girls will definitely get out of the circle quickly. If you let three girls want to get out of the circle quickly,
That may require strong enough strength.
Zhao Mingyang is right. There are too many people who can sing and dance. There is no shortage of people who can sing and dance. What is lacking is good works. There are fewer and fewer good music works. The younger generation is gathering together to act. But acting is
Very few people can survive.
These three girls have no acting skills at all, so how can they get out of the entertainment industry? Black and red are also popular, and they can be remembered by others and they will be successful.
I'm afraid that after more than ten years in the entertainment industry, no one remembers me, and there's no topic. That would be really miserable.
Their strength can be gradually improved, but if they miss this great opportunity and great years, they will have no chance. They are being criticized now, but as long as they make a little progress in the later period, they will be fine. Others will say that they are working hard, but they are afraid that others will not see their efforts.
Arrived.
They are still young, and they will become famous first. In ten years they will be 26 or 7 years old, and they can have at least ten years of traffic.
Three days later.
In a private room of a five-star hotel in Shanghai, Zhao Mingyang, Wang Chenbo, Xiao Yu, director Wang Jing, and three screenwriters had a dinner together.
This dinner was not just a simple dinner, it was about deciding what to shoot. Zhao Mingyang invited them here just to tell them what to shoot.
Wang Jing was also very surprised. He didn't prepare anything and went straight to filming. He decided on the cast first. This is a bit like his old brother Wang Jiawei. He just started filming so often that the actors and screenwriters didn't know what he was going to do.
Then just start, thinking and shooting at the same time, whether you are angry or not, I often win prizes just by playing this way.
But is Zhao Mingyang Wang Jiawei? Wang Jing doesn't know, he doesn't look like him. He's young, he's the second generation of someone's family, he's probably a cheat.
The most surprising ones are Wang Chenbo and Xiao Yu. Wang Jing, this is a great director. His status can be said to be one of the best in the Chinese film and television industry. He is an absolute great director and has made many stars famous.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Mingyang actually asked him to be the director. This is really profitable, and it will become popular if it doesn't happen.
But the two of them were silent for a while. Wang Jing was famous for his high film output. He made 200 films, but only 20 or 30 could be said to be good.
The output is high, but there are also a lot of bad movies. He is famous for accepting movies when he is paid.
Why is it that after he has made so many bad movies, people are still looking for him to film?
Capital is not stupid either, because he is a well-known director who will not let investors lose money even if it is a bad movie. This is why he has projects all year round.
He has a very thorough understanding. Don’t talk about art when it comes to movies. Let’s talk about making money first. If you don’t have money, you can’t make movies. Of course, he will invest in some literary films regardless of the cost. He never scolds others if he loses money. He is doing more.
Just take on two dramas and make money.
Therefore, he has a good reputation in the investor circle. If you invest in him, there is a 30% chance of making a fortune, but even if you don't make a profit, you will basically not lose money. This is why Zhao Mingyang came to him, and the price given to him is also very good.
Yes, ten million.
If you want to know the price given to a big-name first-line actor, why did he give it to Wang Jing? Zhao Mingyang wanted to buy out Wang Jing for a period. During this period, he concentrated on filming the TV series invested by Zhao Mingyang, and he was not only a director, he was very good at writing.
The person who wrote the script, after all, graduated from the Chinese Department of Hong Kong Island and is a child of a film family. His father is a well-known art film director.
The scripts he wrote seriously are all good, but he only writes for big productions and doesn't do much writing. He usually rushes to work. The fact that he works so hard is actually because of his father. His father made art films, but he didn't make any money.
The family did not have a good life.
He knows very well that he needs to make money and have a good life before he can do what he likes with peace of mind. For example, he can use money to invest in his favorite art film director.
What Zhao Mingyang likes is that he can both direct and write. Similar to European and American directors, the producers, directors, screenwriters, and even actors of many American dramas are all one person. Only what he writes can be perfectly displayed. This can be done in China.
There are not many directors like this, and those who can do well rely on this to make a comeback, such as Chen Gou, Shan Zhengge, and Ning Kuangsan.
But the person who preceded them was Wang Jing. He was famous for being good at writing and directing, but he only wanted to make money, so he couldn't bear to make one movie a year. The money he would get would be too little.
Moreover, during the years when Hong Kong movies were in decline, he worked hard to make movies in order to keep Hong Kong movies alive. No one had a job, but he was the only one who had one. Because investors believed that he would not lose money, and it was difficult for other directors to say that, so he worked in such a hurry.
Go and help Hong Kong filmmakers have food to eat.
Zhao Mingyang gave him this money this time just so that he would not go to other crews for at least three months and concentrate on this crew.
"Director Wang, I asked Mr. Ning to tell you about the fee. I don't like beating around the bush. You also know that this amount is not low for a director. I just want you to say something. Can you guarantee that you will not leave the crew for three months?"
." Zhao Mingyang said to Wang Jing straight to the point.
"Ten million is not enough, we have to add more money, at least double it." Wang Jing said very directly.
The rest of the people were surprised, so expensive? Isn't it too high? Zhao Mingyang didn't think so. Generally, for example, when making a movie or a TV series, the director would get a dead salary. There are a lot of directors available with 1.8 million, but
When you reach Wang Jing's level, you basically get a share of the box office, and you have to pay additional wages.
Generally, big directors can get about 10% of the dividend, for example, 3 billion for a movie. After excluding the share of theaters and channels, and deducting the cost of the movie, investors and film studios can only get 50%.
The middle score, of course, must also deduct some taxes, etc. Generally speaking, the income of such big directors is very high.
But if the box office is good, if the box office is not good, then the big director and investors will be fully compensated, and only the actors' remuneration will not change.
Wang Jing asked for 30 million to buy him out for three months. This fee was equivalent to him making a movie. In three months, the box office was about 40 to 500 million.
But Wang Jing didn't dare to make such a calculation, because he could probably produce a film with a box office of over 200 to 300 million yuan at most and ensure that the employer would not lose money, so the price he gave was considered reasonable and not too high.
This is why TV dramas are generally not directed by big directors. The price is too expensive, really too expensive.
If a major director makes a TV series, he basically projects it himself, puts his own name on it and sells it at a high price to the broadcasting platform to make money.
"OK, I promise you, but you have to promise not to take on other roles for three months." Zhao Mingyang started talking at the table.
In fact, this is a wake-up call to Wang Chenbo and Xiao Yu. I spent so much money and you must cherish this opportunity. This is not a small production.
Wang Jing also accepts jobs worth five million, but he may only shoot for you for half a month and then move on to the next company to ensure that you don’t lose money. The quality can only be guaranteed, and he doesn’t care about the rest. Originally, Zhao Mingyang gave
He wanted to buy him out for a period of time for ten million, but he didn't expect that the price of ten million a month was indeed not cheap.
But Zhao Mingyang knew that if he dared to ask for this price, he would be confident that he could sell something. He could also let Zhao Mingyang make his own proposal. Anyway, he would eventually be able to sell his thing, so he dared to ask for this price.
"So what do you want to film? The screenwriter is here too. It's best to come up with the script first. I'll prepare it and start construction this morning." Wang Jing looked at Zhao Mingyang and said.
"I want to make a fairy tale drama. These two are the male leads of our drama. I will tell you the general idea and I will send you the script outline in a moment.
The plot is very simple. Xiao Yu plays a white fox who has been practicing for thousands of years. But when he was young, he was trapped in a hunter's trap. When he was about to die, a knight played by Wang Chenbo saved the fox.
White Fox, and took good care of him, White Fox repaid his kindness, looking for this benefactor for three lives and three lives and finally found him.
The direction of the plot is brotherhood. It needs to be the kind where I see you in my eyes and you see me in your eyes. The scene should often show four eyes facing each other, and the two men mainly show a kind of self-restraint of brotherhood, that is, they want to transcend the world, but are afraid.
That feeling of worldly view.
You can arrange scenes for them to hold hands and run, or to pick them up and spin them around.
There is also bathing, such as Xiao Yu rubbing Wang Chenbo's back, but Xiao Yu's eyes must have that kind of complexity, and Wang Chenbo must also have it, such as affectionate eyes and prominent facial expressions..."
Everyone present, including Wang Jing, looked at Zhao Mingyang with stupid expressions. Why on earth does he want to film this fairy tale drama? It has nothing to do with fairy tales. Why does this feel wrong? What does it mean to transcend the secular world and be afraid of secular prejudice?
Feeling like this? Isn’t this just a happy-go-lucky routine?
