Chapter 280 Boss Fang takes the assistant director to see
"Then let's make a long story short. I understand that you have a lot of experience in the film crew. You have worked with people in various categories. At thirty years old, you can be considered a young person among directors..."
Fang Yi said, "Director Lu Chuan, you know, when he made his first film, he was older than you."
Of course Guo Fan knew these things, so he was so excited that he forgot about it.
"I have just started making movies and have just started this business, so you may have to be an assistant director for a while and help me. I don't know if you are willing."
"willing."
"As for you leading a team by yourself...that kind of thing hasn't happened yet. Do you want to make "The Adventures of Li Xianji" a real person? You seemed to have mentioned this matter when you came to me with Li Yang."
Guo Fan's head was pounding like garlic.
"If you succeed in doing it, you will definitely be the director the day "Li" becomes a real person... even if the budget is very low."
Guo Fan was ecstatic, "I will not let you down."
After Fang Yi said that, he looked down at his schedule and chose a suitable one.
"Are you interested in seeing the promotional activities of "Earthquake"? You can see the top people on various tracks in this circle."
"Of course I want to go."
——"Earthquake" was the only domestic blockbuster released during the entire World Cup. Because the national football team failed to qualify for the Nth time, "it's over, there is no suspense anymore." Everyone was happily supporting the foreign teams, and there was a lot of excitement among the fans.
The atmosphere has never been better, and we talk about football almost all the time in our spare time.
Putting the schedule at this point is a risky move.
China Film Group conducted a survey on movie-watching groups the year before last, and the results were surprising. "The main group is young people aged 25-29 years old," followed by "young people aged 29-40 years old." The third group is generally considered the main ticket audience.
College students in the warehouse.
This data is different from the data of major countries in the world, but is exactly similar to the fan groups. It may be that the ticket price of tens of dollars is still too expensive for the Chinese people whose economy has not taken off recently, and it is a kind of luxury consumption.
However, China Film Group also pointed out that "the number of young moviegoers is increasing rapidly, which means that corresponding works will quickly show their potential."
This is the reason why Fang Yin's youth film "Love Letter" is expected by Mr. San. He pleases the first and third groups of the moment and has clear goals. Compared with the self-expression films that flood the theaters, he is higher than you don't know.
Where has it gone?
Personal struggle is important, but the process of history must also be taken into consideration.
The shooting time of "The Great Earthquake" was probably in the middle of last year, basically at the same time as Fang Yi's "Love Is Afterlife", and I worked on the special effects for more than half a year. Feng Dapao was very sorry that Fang Yi could not play a role.
Fang Yi blurted out:
"Fang Yi, if you come to "Earthquake" and play the younger brother, you will really be a king. When I say 500 million in box office, no one will suspect that I am bragging!"
The other people looked at Fang Yi curiously and smiled kindly.
Only Li Chen, who played the role of "younger brother", was quite embarrassed. He put his hands in his trouser pockets and his dark face turned red from suppressing it. However, under the power of the 200 million actor, he had to bow his head and said, "Thank you, Director Fang, for coming to support me."
"Thank you, Director Fang."
Fang Yi pulled Guo Fan to appear in front of Feng Dapao: "Director Feng, this is Guo..."
Feng Dapao listened to what he said, but he ignored Guo Fan and continued to talk to Fang Yi: "The reason why the special effects of "The Great Earthquake" took so long is because we have done an aging process on every building, which is equivalent to
Added a filter...I heard that you also did this in your new film, but if you can get the real scene, it's easier for you than me."
"I'm different," Feng Dapao pointed at his yellow-and-white face. Because he suffered from vitiligo, he was filming day and night, and now his face is heavily marked.
"Tangshan is a city that has stood up again from the ruins. My special effects shots are not the icing on the cake, they are made from scratch, making buildings that do not exist now..."
Guo Fan's expression was a little dull because he was ignored.
Fang Yi patted him: "Guo Fan, do you want Director Feng to introduce himself to you?"
Guo Fan then stretched out his hand, "Director Feng!" Feng Dapao looked at Fang Yi strangely, touched Guo Fan's hand, and continued talking to Fang Yi.
The two people talked for a long time before retreating. In addition to Fang Yi, the supporting guests that night also included Big Brother Cheng, Fan Meiren, etc. In order to round up Feng Dapao's 500 million box office, China Film and Television started this month, every show
Big stars must be invited to help.
Mr. San was also cooperating with China Film and Television. At that time, China Film's theater chains put up promotional posters very early, and the documentary and trailer of "The Great Earthquake" could also be seen on TV.
The promotional event lasted until late at night and was grand in scale. Celebrities arrived one after another. By the time the final group photo was taken, the lineup was comparable to the Basha Charity Banquet at the end of last year.
Fang Yi and Guo Fan were taken to the restaurant of a certain club. Fang Yi introduced to Guo Fan, "After China Film and Television went public, the funds were quite abundant, and the stock price skyrocketed - isn't there a saying in Hollywood that the six major film companies have a monopoly?
The movie screens in the United States, or in other words, major countries around the world..."
Guo Fan thought he understood, "China Film and Television wants to be one of China's top six?"
"No, it wants to be the only giant, a real market giant except for the Chinese prefix. Judging from these guests," Fang Yi was referring to the people like Big Brother Cheng, "Everyone is optimistic that it can succeed, and they can't wait to express their heartfelt opinions.
loyalty."
"It's amazing." Guo Fan was restrained and swallowed his saliva.
A few days ago, he rented a partitioned house in the capital, but now he is in a place that he can't get to by himself. The corridors of this place are hung with copies of familiar oil paintings, which look like authentic ones. Is the food served good?
Let’s not talk about the food, but they are all beautifully presented and packed in exquisite utensils, which will make people without three pennies tremble in their hearts.
Fang Yi was placed at the main table, where he and his eldest brother Cheng were the only people who were not from China Film and Television. Guo Fan was placed elsewhere, and he was also the mainstay of the group at the table.
These people had never met Guo Fan and asked him politely which path he was in.
Guo Fan answered enthusiastically: "Guo Fan, I am a director."
"What kind of movie is it?"
"Not taken yet."
"Have you not found an actor yet?"
"No, I'm currently the assistant director, helping Director Fang Yi share the work. I want to be a director."
"Oh, assistant director...Hello assistant director, assistant director...there is still room for improvement."
People became rude. This rudeness didn't mean that they immediately changed their faces and looked down on him like in the novel, but in the subsequent conversation, no one asked him for his opinion again. He tried to interrupt, but others pretended not to listen.
arrive.
Guo Fan felt that the meal was boring and wanted to go back to the rental house to eat instant noodles.
The Wang brothers were very polite to Fang Yi and kept praising him during the dinner. In addition, Feng Dapao really liked Fang Yi and treated Fang Yi like the master of his family.
Of the two brothers, the older brother Wang Zhongjun is more restrained and takes care of things; the younger brother Wang Zhonglei is more cheerful and external. This man has had conflicts with Fang Yi before.
Wang Zhongjun talked a lot today, "We at China Film and Television are going to do something big, including "Earthquake", "Tongtian Empire", and "If You Are the One 2" at the end of the year. These are all blockbuster movies that can definitely make money. No other company dares to do it.
We do the same thing."
Wang Zhongjun listed: "Whether it is Guangsheng Film and Television, Bernard Film and Television, Galloping Horse... there is no one, no one can use money like us."
His younger brother Wang Zhonglei echoed: "Speaking of which, Director Fang is very suitable for the second part of "The Empire of Heaven". He is an actor and he is good-looking. Director Fang...are you interested? He has an investment of more than 100 million.
, we won’t talk nonsense, we can decide it today.”
Fang Yi didn't know what kind of medicine the Wang brothers were selling, so of course he wouldn't agree.
Feng Dapao was a little drunk, so he interrupted, "Fang Yi, come to our China Film and Television and open your studio as usual. That's what I do... But it's better to enjoy the shade under the big tree, don't you think?"
If you have money, everyone makes it."
Fang Yi: "It's really not necessary. I don't know if there is a schedule."
Feng Dapao shook his head and made great movements under the influence of alcohol. He also wanted to say something. Wang Zhonglei stood up and went to his side to pour him a drink to toast him. He looked at Wang Zhonglei and smiled happily, forgetting what he wanted to say.
The eldest brother, Cheng, realized something was wrong in the atmosphere and leaned back in his chair to watch silently.
Wang Zhongjun said: "To be a big director, you need to develop in many places. Our director has achieved results in many places. He is young and is much better than when I was washing dishes in the United States... The same is true for a big company. You can't
Just to make a movie, we need to make a theme park, a hotel, and hardware. Director Fang must agree with me, right? We can cooperate."
Feng Dapao, who was going crazy with alcohol, suddenly woke up and saw an apologetic look from Fang Yi. He took off his baseball cap and kept touching his head, feeling that his skin was hot.
There was no background sound of him going crazy drunk, so there was no sound in the whole room, everyone was waiting for Fang Yi to answer.
