In Chen Feng's dream world, "囧" and "冏" have a bright meaning.
However, because this word is so much like an emoticon, showing a feeling of helplessness, embarrassment, and embarrassment, slowly, "囧" directly became the meaning of "embarrassment" and was widely used.
In the network cultural environment.
This is a very interesting cultural phenomenon, so Chen Feng was very impressed by it.
And the world he lives in now also has the word "囧", and it also means "embarrassment". It had already become a small hit when the Internet was just emerging, but the impact was not too far-reaching, unlike in the dreamland before.
The world is so hot.
Therefore, now that Chen Feng has directly brought out this embarrassing word, others will feel amazed when they see it for the first time.
Xu Cheng felt that this word was used very well.
Especially when combined with the word "Tai", "Tai囧" gives people an inexplicable sense of harmony.
"It's a second, it's really a second!"
Xu Cheng only looked at the title that Chen Feng helped him modify and couldn't help but exclaimed.
Many people in his studio also gathered together. When they saw the title "囧囧", everyone was silent for a moment.
Not because the name is bad, but because the name is awesome.
"Wow, this word "囧" is so well used, why didn't we think of it?"
"Embarrassed, embarrassed, so embarrassed... Hahaha, this name is really fun!"
"Boss, just use this new name. To be honest, I have always felt that the previous name "Laughing Thailand Journey" was quite unpleasant, and it also gave people a sense of popularity. It may even be sued by others in the future.
It’s possible, so let’s use a new name!”
"Go, you are the only one who knows how to deal with things later!"
But Xu Cheng also likes this name very much, and Chen Feng helped get this new name, which further hinted that he wanted to start a new business and not have anything to do with the messy things in the past!
In the end, Xu admitted that he really nodded: "Okay, let's use the name "Thai囧"!"
The change of the movie's name is actually just a small matter. When Xu Cheng and several of his screenwriters read the funny details that Chen Feng added to "Thailand", they were all shocked and speechless.
.
"Boss...are you sure that this Chen Feng was really just a singer and a movie investor before? Why do I suddenly feel...this guy has more ideas than us professional screenwriters?"
"Ho ho ho ho ho... I was so happy. The scene where I chased the protagonist and returned the phone was so funny. It was much cheaper and more fun than our previous method. I really liked it!"
"I think the cactus prop is just right, tsk tsk... I really hope to see these clips filmed earlier!"
…
Hearing everyone's praise for Chen Feng, Xu Cheng let out a long sigh of relief.
Since Chen Feng was able to help him revise the script and raised so many details so seriously, there should be no suspense about the investment. This time, he was finally able to realize his dream and make a movie of his own.
!
Thank heaven, thank Chen Feng!
…
However, Chen Feng himself also knows that in fact he is not as powerful as those in Xu Cheng's studio are pursuing him. Fortunately, he has the memory of the dream world, so he can make better scripts for "囧囧"
For modifications, he just took out those things in his memory.
But that's enough, because although they are not in the same world, the two worlds are inextricably linked.
So Xu Cheng in this world also has the basic ideas and framework structure of "囧囧", but there will be gaps in more plot details.
Therefore, the things Chen Feng helped to add could perfectly fit Xu Cheng's script.
In the end, Chen Feng and Xu Cheng were able to perfectly produce the film together.
But now Chen Feng doesn't really want to participate in the actual filming and production of the movie. "The Wandering Earth" consumed too much of his time and energy, and he doesn't want to experience that feeling again.
So, this time, after helping Xu Cheng improve the script, he was only responsible for investment and didn't want to take care of anything else.
And Xu Cheng should also be a trustworthy person.
Even if Xu Cheng messes up the film in the end, to be honest... with Chen Feng's current net worth, he won't care much.
…
Soon, Ping An Investment reached a cooperation agreement with Xu Cheng's studio. Ping An Investment of Chen Feng and An Ruohua invested 20 million in Xu Cheng's "Thailand", while Xu Cheng's studio invested 8 million.
The funds, plus Xu Cheng's directing work, totaled 10 million to jointly produce this new film.
Eight million, this is Xu Cheng's entire family fortune, and he even mortgaged his own property in Kyoto City.
It can be said that he is ready to fight to the death.
However, Xu Cheng is still very satisfied with the total capital of 30 million. This is much richer than the original "Crazy Stone" crew, and he has more room for operation.
In addition, the identity of a director was actually discounted by two million in the end. Xu Cheng was even more grateful to Chen Feng. This was the greatest recognition and expectation for him. No matter what, he must make this film well.
However, the two million is actually a good value for money, because after all, Xu Cheng has been in the entertainment industry for a long time. Whether it is the TV industry or the film industry, he has rich network resources. Chen Feng does not want to get too involved on the premise
Under this situation, he has to shoulder the responsibility alone, which is also a very difficult challenge.
But Xu Cheng didn't feel scared, he just felt very excited now.
…
Once the funds were in place, the next step was casting. Xu Cheng could give full play to his abilities and resources in this regard. Soon, he had a long list of candidates.
However, there are only three most important roles in the film "囧". Xu Cheng will definitely play the starring role. He is also planning to invite Wang Bo for the other role that is a competitor to him.
During the filming of "Crazy Stone", Xu Cheng had a good relationship with Wang Bo, and Wang Bo was a person with high emotional intelligence. Although he later went up all the way, made many good movies, and even won a few more important ones.
Award, but he still maintained a close relationship with Xu Cheng.
This time Wang Bo happened to have another schedule, so he became the best choice.
Xu Cheng, Wang Bo, now have the last important role left.
This role is also very important because he will be responsible for most of the laughs in the film.
It is indeed difficult to cast such a character. Xu Cheng and Wang Bo discussed it for a long time. Some people are suitable but they are not available. There are good friends who are available, but the role positioning is not suitable. After going back and forth, this role actually turned out to be
