Chapter 780 Fertilizer water does not flow to outsiders' fields
"FAW-Volkswagen, China Eastern Airlines, I DO, Sansheng Real Estate, Bulgari Jewelry, Zhalang, Penguin, Changan Automobile, No. 1 Store, Samsung, EP Yaying, Canon, Nongfu Spring..."
He Xin looked at the list of advertisements for "I Do" in his hand. Good guy, there are a total of twenty or thirty brands. It's no wonder that the investment has been recouped before the movie even started, and there is even a book surplus.
"Brother Liu, are these all okay?" He asked director Liu Jiang uncertainly.
Liu Jiang scratched his scalp: "It's a bit difficult, but it can be arranged."
He is a TV drama director with a grassroots background, so it is easier for him to compromise. If he were replaced by a director with an art of talking openly and silently, this matter would probably be very difficult to handle.
He Xin looked at Liu Jiang's troubled look and felt a little bit sorry, as if he was bullying an honest person. Moreover, so many product placements were indeed a bit crazy and ugly.
"Well, Brother Liu, if there is anything difficult to arrange, just bring it up. We won't be short of the money, but we still have to focus on the movie itself."
When He Xin said this, his face was inevitably a little hot, and he always felt hypocritical as if he was a bitch and had to set up a chastity memorial.
"clear!"
Liu Jiang nodded hurriedly and said with a smile: "Teacher He, I feel much more relaxed with your words."
In fact, he is really in a dilemma. Although most of the implants can appear in the form of props, the sponsors still have various requirements. If they really meet all their requirements, this movie will not be an urban romance film.
No, it's a love commercial.
He Lirong, who was standing next to her, was a little anxious when she heard this, and said hurriedly: "Boss, I DO has proposed that the word "I Do" be added to the title of the film."
She knew that her boss's English was not very good, so she explained: "I am willing to translate it into English as I Do, and I am also willing to translate their Chinese advertising slogans into Chinese."
"The title of the film needs to include their brand? It's a shame they figured it out. Isn't this really an advertising film?"
He Xin shook his head when he heard this. Even if it is just right, there must be a bottom line!
"But they are willing to give this number!" He Lirong raised two fingers.
But this time He Xin was resolute, waving his hands and saying: "Don't say two million, even twenty million is useless. This will definitely not work."
He Lirong thought about it, but it was a pity. The implants she hired were all paid with commission. If the boss didn't say anything, Xiao Shiwan's commission would be in vain.
Then she stumbled and said: "The venues we shot this time were all provided by Sansheng Real Estate. They have no other requirements. They just hope that the name of their group can be tied to... uh, you."
"What do you mean, what do you mean by being bound together? You can't ask me to do oral broadcasting for them."
To be honest, the advertising placement in domestic movies is relatively crude. For example, in "If You Are the One" released last year, China Merchants Bank, Jiannanchun, HNA, Motorola, and Subaru cars endorsed by Uncle Ge are everywhere. But, purely as a product
The props or background advertisements are okay, but the spoken word broadcast seems very low.
You must know that generally big stars themselves have many endorsements. On the one hand, they are worried about conflicts with their own endorsements, and on the other hand, they care about their feathers. Generally speaking, supporting actors are used to complete the oral broadcasts, such as in "Mission: Impossible 2"
, Feng Lei En showed off his shoes in a cool way when he appeared on the stage: "These are my famous GUCCI shoes!"
When he was hit, he screamed: "This is my VERSACE jacket!"
These are the jobs of supporting actors, and Tom Cruise will never broadcast any commercials.
"But...but, they just made such a request." He Lirong looked at her boss helplessly.
This implantation is not about the amount of sponsorship, but mainly about the shooting location. Land in the CBD is very valuable. It is not easy to find a suitable location without interference for shooting. Moreover, there are many people in the building that they have just completed and have not yet been handed over.
There is enough space for the crew to set up scenes, so there is no need to rent a studio.
"Since they only require the name of their group to be tied to Teacher He, I think it would be enough to change Yang Nianhua's identity in the play to the chairman of Sansheng Group!" Liu Jiang interjected from the side.
Right, almost all the big bosses these days are engaged in real estate.
Before He Xin could speak, He Lirong's eyes suddenly lit up and she said with joy: "This is good! This is good! This is better than the oral broadcast! And in the end, Yang Nianhua's Sansheng Group acquired Wang Yang's jewelry company, which can be integrated into the plot.
It’s inside…”
As she said that, she suddenly paused: "No, I have to renegotiate the contract with them, and I have to pay more!"
Throwing the next sentence: "Boss, I will withdraw first!"
He ran away happily.
He Xin was very ashamed of his subordinates and said awkwardly: "Brother Liu, what the hell, I'm sorry!"
"Oh, it's okay. Xiao He is still very capable. In fact, filming is all about money. Without money, you won't be able to produce any good works."
Liu Jiang is quite down-to-earth.
"Then let's do this. The launch date will be on the 12th as you said, and everyone will join the group one week in advance."
…
"well!"
When Cheng Hao sighed again, He Xin, who was lying on the desk doing homework, raised his head and looked at her: "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"No, it's just that this script is really good, but it's a pity that I can't act." Cheng Hao waved his hand and said with regret the script of "Border" he was reading.
"You want to play Xiao An?"
"No, the role of Xiao An seems to be the leading female role, but in fact she has no special characteristics. Instead, she is the sister of the policeman. I feel particularly tense."
"Well, you have a good sense!" He Xin smiled and gave his wife a thumbs up.
"Border" is a man's drama, and the two female characters don't have many roles, but Cheng Hao is right. Compared with the passive monopoly wife Xiao An, the role of the police sister is more three-dimensional.
"However, even if I am not pregnant, I am not suitable for this role. After I give birth to the child, I will probably play the mother in two years."
"You are only in your early thirties, it's still early." He Xin comforted you hurriedly.
It's still a limitation of the times. My daughter-in-law's mentality is still relatively old-school, and she pays attention to what role she plays at what age. Just like when she was filming "Conquer", Jiang Shan was only thirty-five or sixty, and she had already played more than ten roles.
She is the mother of a 20-year-old girl. Think about what kind of girl characters are still being hyped in the later generations when they are in their 40s. This is totally different.
"Besides, how old are Huppert and Streep, and Gong Li? They can still leave classic roles on the screen. Why are you so anxious?"
"How dare I compare with them? They are all Oscar-level and international-level actresses. How much do I weigh?"
Cheng Hao came over, sat on his lap, put her arm around his neck, and said coquettishly: "Husband, what do you think I will do in the future?"
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Your task now is to take care of the tire with peace of mind. We will wait until the cargo is unloaded." He Xin said with a smile, stroking her back.
"Ha! What do you mean by unloading goods? I have your own flesh and blood in my belly, so you treat her as cargo!" Cheng Hao suddenly said coquettishly.
In later generations, he often saw people on the Internet and in his circle of friends saying that giving birth to children was like unloading goods, and he accidentally said that he was bald. This kind of saying is still relatively new these days.
He hurriedly coaxed: "Okay, okay, I'm sorry, I made a mistake."
As he spoke, he gently touched his wife's flat belly and whispered softly: "Baby, dad shouldn't have said that just now, don't be angry!"
"Pfft!"
Cheng Hao covered his mouth and smiled: "It's just like the real thing. She's only two months old and is still just an embryo."
"It's nonsense. They say that father and daughter are connected. She will definitely know what I said."
As he said this, the guy pretended to be frightened and said, "It seems I have to be more careful with what I say in the future, so as not to let my daughter blame me."
Cheng Hao was so amused that she giggled. She also touched her belly and suddenly said, "Hey, what if it's a son?"
It seems that the two of them have surprisingly similar views on this aspect, and they both want a daughter.
He Xin said confidently: "It must be my daughter. You see now that you can eat and sleep, but you don't have any reaction at all. Didn't Tong Yali say it last time? If you have a big reaction, it's your son. If you don't react, it must be your daughter."
I have to say, even though Tong Yali is still single now, she is really all about giving birth to a child. First, she talked about the secret recipe for giving birth to a son in her hometown, and also talked about women with big bellies, whether they have a son with a pointed belly or a round belly.
I know everything about giving birth to a daughter.
Not to mention that what she said was quite reasonable. He Xin might not know very well what a pointed belly and a round belly meant, but in his last life, his wife gave birth to a daughter, and there was really no big reaction when she was pregnant.
"Don't listen to her nonsense. Her claims are all superstitions from her hometown. I've asked before. Whether the pregnancy reaction is severe has nothing to do with having a boy or a girl. It mainly has something to do with your own physique."
Just talking about Tong Yali, this girl has now made up her mind to terminate the contract with Sister Hong. During this period, she came to the house every now and then in the name of vacation, just to accompany Cheng so that she could talk and relieve her boredom.
"Hey, I'm still worried about Yaya. You said that she will sign a contract with us in a while. Don't you really have no resources to give her at all?"
"Don't worry, although she can't play Zhen Huan, I can arrange another role for her later." He Xin said disapprovingly.
He thought that Tong Yali's appearance might not be outstanding in modern dramas, but she would be absolutely stunning in ancient costumes, plus she had a sharp tongue and she should have no problem playing a young concubine like Huan Bi.
Cheng Hao was dissatisfied and said, "Do you still want her to play the third or fourth female lead?"
"Don't underestimate this "The Legend of Zhen Huan". Don't talk about the third and fourth female leads. Even the fifth and sixth female leads may be more outstanding than the leading female leads in ordinary TV series. Do you believe it?"
He Xin couldn't be more clear about the influence of "The Legend of Zhen Huan", which made a large number of people famous. In later generations, an 18th-tier starlet who didn't know how to play a leading female role could still become a real estate tycoon.
"I believe it! But the key is that it's not worthy of her current position!"
Cheng Hao frowned and said: "I know you think her acting skills are not good, but didn't she act very well in "Two Donkeys"? Besides, if she signs with our studio, she will be one of our own, so you
Take her with you." Cheng Hao patted the script in his hand on the table and said.
"Well……"
He Xin admitted that what his wife said made sense. In the past, they had no contracted actors and could choose suitable candidates as they pleased. But now the situation is different. They can't leave their own people alone without having to praise others.
He glanced at the script of "Border" on the table and muttered: "Let her try Xiao An later."
In comparison, the role of the female lead, Xiao An, is a little less difficult.
When Cheng Hao heard this, he kissed her husband hard on the face and said with a smile, "I knew you were the best!"
After saying that, he hurriedly added: "There is also the role of the police sister. I think Song Tie is particularly suitable."
"Song Tie? Oh, he's the new guy signed by the studio, right?"
He had no memory of the name Song Tie before. If it weren't for the girl's weird name, he would really not be able to remember it.
"Yes, I told you last time. I think this child is very spiritual, really!"
"I don't even know what she looks like? Forget it, when the audition comes back, you can let her come with Yali." He Xin said with a bitter smile.
"Hey, I have her photo on my phone, let me show it to you!" Cheng Hao said hurriedly.
She was about to jump off her husband's lap in a hurry. He Xin was so frightened that he quickly held her up: "Take it easy!"
Cheng Hao took the phone from the bedside table, pulled out the photos and showed it to him: "This is Song Tie."
He Xin took it over and took a look, hey, isn't this Yu Manli!
Although the thin, fair-skinned girl with a bit big hair in the photo still looked a little green, he still recognized the female military spy in "The Pretender" who loved Brother Hu deeply at a glance.
When he was following this drama, in addition to the three Ming brothers, what impressed him deeply was Yu Manli and Wang Manchun, who looked very charming with heavy make-up.
In contrast, Wang Manchun may have relied on a little bit of character setting and her own style, but Yu Manli relied entirely on her acting skills to win. As for the female lead in the play, the underground party, she was almost completely suppressed, and she had no sense of existence at all.
.
"It turns out she is Song Tie!"
"How do you know him?" Cheng Hao asked in surprise.
"Oh, I can't remember. It looks familiar."
"She is two classes lower than Yaya. She is from class 2006. Maybe you met her when you went to school. What do you think of her?"
"possible……"
He nodded and looked at it carefully with his mobile phone. Maybe the proportions of the photo in his hand were slightly different from the one shown on the TV. The person in the photo seemed to be very thin, and then her head appeared to be a bit big. And at first glance, she seemed to have a big head.
She is quite average-looking, but her appearance is as recognizable as her name.
In the acting profession, there are a lot of beauties, but the beauties who are really suitable for the big screen pay attention to the bones rather than the skin. In the photo, Song Yi is a typical beauty with good bones, a bit like Zhang Ziyi in her youth, not that she is tall.
They are not similar, but their styles and temperaments are very similar, and they both have that energetic feeling.
"Well, that's good. We can let her give it a try when the time comes. But as I said before, I am only responsible for recommendations. Director Cheng still has to decide on the final candidate."
The company has reached a consensus with Cheng Er, but it will take some time for the project to start. He Xin will try to give full respect to a director like Cheng Er who has such a character and talent.
"Yeah, yeah, I know." Cheng Hao nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice.
Having said that, after all, those who are closer to the stage are first served. Even if everyone competes fairly for auditions in the future, getting the script before others is the biggest advantage. If it doesn't work, then either you are not suitable, or you are an Adou who cannot afford to support you.
