In the small screening room of Beijing Film Studio, Yu Dong laughed and joked as soon as he saw He Xin.
After yesterday's evening news was broadcast, many people recognized He Xin. Some people uploaded screenshots to the Internet, which caused a lot of discussion. Some conspiracy theorists questioned that this was arranged and that the Huayi brothers were involved in the relationship.
I bribed Yang Ma just for the promotion of "Assembly Number", but the vast majority of netizens still happily teased Yang Ma for being blind.
There are no hot searches these days, otherwise this would be the rhythm of making hot search headlines. Especially the close-up of He Xin's red eyes in the news attracted a lot of attention, calling for "Assembly Number" from the side.
, maybe it can also help trigger a small movie-watching craze.
For this reason, when Feng Xiaogang, who had just arrived in Chongqing today to promote, was interviewed at the airport, he also expressed his solemn gratitude to "Mr. He, a citizen" who spoke highly of "Assembly" in the news last night.
Yu Dong couldn't help but say sourly at this moment: "You guy, why don't you read "The Letter of Voting"?"
Speaking of which, Yu Dong was quite depressed during this period. When "The Tou Ming Zhuan" was first released, it was so popular that he even shouted the slogan "The box office is 400 million". As a result, as soon as "Assembly Number" was released, "The Tou Ming Zhuan"
It suddenly plummeted, and the box office was stuck at the 200 million mark, unable to break through.
He Xin spread his hands and said innocently: "This is purely a coincidence, but even if I went to see "The Letter of Voting" last night, there would be no reporters to interview me."
"..."
This is what makes Yu Dong even more depressed. It is also a blockbuster, but "Assembly" has taken advantage of the main theme and won official support. And it is said that when the General Administration holds a New Year's Day reception in two days, there will be a special screening of "Assembly"
Number".
"Haha, hello, 'Mr. Citizen He'!"
At this time, Mr. Han walked in with a red face, accompanied by Ning Hao and Zhang Guoli.
"Third Master!"
"Teacher Zhang!"
He Xin quickly went up to shake hands and say hello. At the same time, he looked at Ning Hao, who was accompanying Mr. Han like a good baby, and said in surprise: "Hey, Haozi, have you been losing weight during this time?"
This was the first time he saw this guy when he came back. He hadn't seen him for more than two months, and he had obviously lost weight.
"Why don't we rush to the post-production stage? This time, Third Master, Teacher Zhang, and Brother Dong have all given me such great support. I dare not live up to their expectations of me." The guy showed his trademark honest smile.
, the flattery comes right after you open your mouth.
Mr. Han was indeed very happy and said: "So today we are here to test the results of your work. I hope it can bring us a surprise!"
Zhang Guoli, who was a close comrade of the Third Master at the Emei Film Studio before he became famous, has always been known in the circle as a "knowledgeable person". He followed up by saying, "I don't think there is any problem with Director Ning's level."
, today will definitely bring us a surprise! Xiaohe, don’t you think so?”
"Of course, I have always had full confidence in Haozi." He Xindao.
"I'm a little embarrassed as you all said. As long as you don't scold me after reading it for a while." Ning Hao scratched his scalp and said modestly.
But having said that, it can still be heard that he is full of confidence in the film "Racing".
The staff was still making preparations before the screening, and took this opportunity to congratulate Xindao: "Third Master, Teacher Zhang, Brother Dong, everyone is here today. I want to ask you about something."
"Oh, Xiaohe, tell me."
"Didn't our young director program just select six scripts this time? I took a look and found that the low-cost comedy "Start Now" directed by Liu Jiang is very good. I talked to him yesterday and I felt that he
It's quite thoughtful, but I think it would be a pity if this book was made into a self-made TV movie." He Xindao.
"You mean to show it?" Sanye said thoughtfully.
"Yes, the production cost of this film is only three million at most. With the subsequent publicity and printing, I estimate that around five million will solve the problem. If you agree, Mr. San, and everyone has no objections,
I think our company can operate alone..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard Yu Dong say first: "Don't mention it, our two families can cooperate. Anyway, the investment is not big, so we can just pay half of it as a family."
Obviously, Yu Dong has fully learned the lessons of "Two Donkeys", and he will have a hand in the book that He Xin likes.
But others are not stupid either. Zhang Guoli hurriedly said: "What do you two mean? Do you want to leave me and Lao Han alone?"
"Mr. Zhang, don't get me wrong. I just think this book is very good from a personal point of view. But if it is really made into a theater movie, after all, the investment will be relatively large, and there are still quite a lot of risks. Our young director program
It’s okay to continue doing it, after all, the risks are controllable. I just want to take out this notebook and do it alone, and be responsible for the profits and losses, that’s what it means.” He Xin explained hurriedly.
"That's right, we are doing our thing. It will not affect the normal implementation of the young director program." Yu Dong also followed suit.
"But why do I think you two want to eat alone?" Zhang Guoli joked with a smile.
Don't forget that Zhang Guoli usually smiles when he meets people and looks like a good old guy. But don't forget that he is also one of the big guys in the industry, with senior qualifications and amazing connections. The size of National Changsheng Film and Television Company is comparable to that of Xinhao Media
Much more.
He is also a thief. Xinhao Media has never failed in its projects in the past few years. As one of the bosses, He Xin's vision is recognized. Furthermore, for such low-cost projects, the risk is not high in the first place. Zhang Guoli also has
I wanted to get involved.
"Teacher Zhang, look at what you said, how can any film project be guaranteed? We Bona and Xinhao Media have a strategic partnership and share risks. There is no such thing as eating alone."
Yu Dong simply trusts He Xin and has confidence in him. At the same time, the development potential of Xinhao Media is seen by everyone with a discerning eye. A talented director and a three-time Best Actor are all hot cakes, and he does not want others to
Put a foot in.
But the third master suddenly asked: "Xiao He, do you want to star in it yourself?"
He had read the book "Start Now", and he had personally shortlisted it. So he was not surprised that He Xin was optimistic about this book, and was even a little proud of it.
He Xin shook his head and said: "No, I am not suitable for the role. The main focus of this drama is on the male lead. Director Liu Jiang has said that he is going to ask Teacher Fan Wei to play this role. I feel good about it. As for the female lead,
As for No. 1, I want Tong Yali to star."
The Third Master nodded approvingly and said, "This is a good idea of yours."
Mr. San is not an outsider. He has been a director and has a keen eye. Although Fan Wei started out as a sketch actor, he has appeared in two well-received literary films, "Fragrant Journey" and "Please, Praise Me".
He has proven his acting skills. Moreover, his appearance and acting style are suitable for playing such a funny and honest character.
As for Tong Yali, since "Two Donkeys", she has become a rising star and has good popularity with the audience.
If the script is good and the male and female protagonists are well-cast, generally speaking, the movie is already half successful. The other half depends on the director's level.
The Young Directors Program is originally designed to discover new directors with potential. Moreover, Liu Jiang has directed many TV series and is not technically a rookie director.
The Third Master pondered for a moment and then said: "Otherwise, I think it would be better to include the book "Let's Go Now" as the first work of our young director project. Just follow Xiao He's wishes and simply make it into a theatrical movie.
, what do you think?"
"I see no problem!" Zhang Guo immediately agreed.
Although Yu Dong felt a little regretful, he still nodded and said: "Okay."
While He Xin was surprised, he quickly said: "I'll make it clear in advance that if you lose money in the future, don't blame me!"
Mr. Han waved his hands domineeringly and said, "It's okay. Our plan is originally experimental in nature and emphasizes the survival of the fittest. Even if it fails a few times, as long as we can find a talented director like Haozi, it will be worth it."
"Hey, Third Master, I'm so scared when you say that!" Ning Hao said jokingly.
"Haha, whether it's a mule or a horse, you should walk it out and see if your kid is really scared!"
The third master patted Ning Hao on the shoulder and laughed. He sincerely admired Ning Hao.
As he said that, he turned around and shouted to the back: "Are you ready?"
"Okay, let it go right now."
After talking about business, everyone took their seats, the lights in the screening room gradually dimmed, and the screen lit up...
Because there was no intervention from He Xin, "Racing" was basically exactly the same as the original version in his memory, and there were no changes in the actors.
If there is He Xin in "Stone", Deng Chao can barely be called a handsome guy, and there is a beautiful woman like Cheng Hao. Then in "Racing" from beginning to end, including men and women, almost all the characters are ugly and heart-wrenching.
And if in "The Stone", Ning Hao's imitation of Guy Ritchie's style was a bit shy, then in "Racing", his copying of Guy Ritchie's style was quite exciting.
Of course, it is copied from the movie style, but the story still has Ning Hao's own personality, and is purely made in China. It is always much more stylish than the so-called remakes in later generations.
As the second part of the crazy series, it still continues the multi-line narrative style of "Stone". An unlucky driver, a group of gangsters who can't figure out the situation, a rural killer duo, a profiteer couple, and two stupid policemen
, and a seemingly professional Thai drug dealer.
The driver is unsuccessful and has bad luck; the Taiwanese Oolong Gang is very principled, but finds that it is impossible to succeed in the mainland; the killer duo insists on the concept of loving what they do, and finally understands that not everyone can do some professions; the profiteer couple plots
In the end, there was no good result; the two policemen were depressed, and finally drugs came to their door, and their chance came; the Thai guy was the only character who was not very grassroots, but his death was very exaggerated...
