The first thousand three hundred and fifty-one chapters
The autumn wind is dark and sad, the first moon night, the courtyard is covered with frost, and the fallen leaves lock the autumn. The cool wind rises, the autumn water is wrinkled, and the beauty is thin. Looking through the autumn water, there is nowhere in the world.--[Crying of the Black Night]
Andy actually doesn't care about this. He knows that there are many stars in Hong Kong who have this idea, but he knows very well that it is not easy to get into the top productions in Hollywood.
Bruce Lee reached an unparalleled level in the Asia-Pacific region and reached the top of the American martial arts world. This state, coupled with Westerners' desire for Eastern civilization, led to great success. It is undeniable that Bruce Lee's
Domineering strength, but times make heroes, Bruce Lee did encounter an opportunity. Of course, Brother Long also suffered a lot, and finally succeeded.
As for Cheng Long, it was not all smooth sailing. His several forays into Hollywood were not very smooth. Finally, he had a peak moment and established his reputation in Hollywood. As for Li Lianjie, with his chic appearance and dazzling actions, he is also famous in Hollywood.
It can be said that he started his career through kung fu.
But in the end there was Tiger Unleashed, a movie also called Danny the Wolf Dog that was suspected of insulting China.
As for Fat Brother, although he has entered Hollywood, it is difficult to say whether he has truly established himself in Hollywood. It is difficult for Fat Jai's acting skills to gain a foothold in Hollywood. Andy naturally knows that it will take some time for his acting skills to reach the level of Fat Brother.
distance, so thinking about Infernal Affairs, I have no intention of going to Hollywood.
Signing a contract is the most reassuring thing for Liu Weiqiang. If he doesn't sign a contract, it will always be difficult for him to feel at ease no matter what.
However, Liu Weiqiang wanted to mention the contract, but Andy stopped him and signaled him not to mention the matter. At this point, Liu Weiqiang still took the lead with Andy. Although he had some doubts in his heart, he said that he did not mention the contract.
This is a matter of status. Hua Tsai is now in a dominant position.
But after Ye Ming left, Liu Weiqiang immediately said unhappily: "Hua Zai, what are you doing with this matter? This problem doesn't mean we have to solve it in the capital, otherwise what would the two of us do in the capital specifically?
Signing a contract is a way that we can all rest assured."
Yes, the two of them were worried about whether Ye Ming would make a guest appearance, so they were obviously close to signing the contract, but Andy stopped himself with his eyes. No matter what, he needed an explanation.
.
Andy said with a smile: "Director Liu, the two of us left the Infernal Affairs crew and came here because you should have found it, right? It was just to confirm whether Ye Ming would make a guest appearance in our movie.
Of course, contracts are also very important, but at times like this, friendship is even more important.
If we go to Huihuang Film and Television and talk directly to Ye Ming, then signing a contract or something at this time is not a big deal. After all, it is a business-to-business issue.
But now we approached Ye Ming through a personal relationship. Ye Ming also said that he would have three days, so he would definitely give our crew three days.
At this time, relying on the result of friendship inquiry, Ye Ming's promise is still worthy of belief. As for signing a contract or something, it goes without saying that such a question needs to be mentioned. If it is really about signing a contract,
If so, then on an issue like this, this matter would hurt feelings. I was just afraid that you would bring up the matter of signing a contract at this time, so I signaled you not to act rashly.
Sometimes, signing a contract is indeed very important, but sometimes, it is more important not to sign a contract, such as now. "The environment is different, so the methods that need to be adopted are also different. The entertainment industry is an ever-changing environment.
The place.
Therefore, when it comes to a problem like this, if a person still sticks to the old ways in dealing with the problem, generally speaking, it is easy to suffer a loss.
Andy has been in the entertainment industry for 20 to 30 years. Not to mention that he has never failed, but generally speaking, it is relatively smooth. At least after becoming famous, he has never fallen out of the first line. I have to say that Andy
His emotional intelligence is very high.
Of course, Andy's talent in business, to be honest, compared with his emotional intelligence, in a matter like this, it is a bit embarrassing.
In a word, Hua Tsai is a qualified actor and singer, but he is definitely not a qualified boss. Therefore, when doing business on such a matter, he will suffer more losses. Ye Ming is going to Hollywood, the company's
Things need to be arranged, and Super Girl also needs to make arrangements. After all, he is going to Hollywood this time, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come back for quite some time.
This is a movie starring Ye Ming, not a supporting role he played, but a starring role, a real starring role, not a supporting role the day after tomorrow. Therefore, Ye Ming will not be able to come back for a long time, and some of his things in China require
Let's make some arrangements.
Calling everyone for a meeting, Ye Ming held a document or said: "This is a plan. It is the plan for this year's Lunar New Year of our Brilliant Film and Television. This year, the Lunar New Year movie we are going to release is the theatrical version of Running Brothers."
"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. The entire conference room was silent for three to five seconds, and then everyone began to discuss this issue. Ye Ming also knew that this issue might have a certain impact on everyone.
Therefore, there was no stopping everyone from discussing. Wang Baoqiang was the first to hold back,
Stand up and say: "Boss, you are making a movie and putting a variety show on the big screen. Is this a New Year's film?"
Ye Ming glanced at Wang Baoqiang with a smile and said: "Why not? This is a movie. As long as we film it, have a plot, actors, and can be shown in cinemas, it is a movie. Besides, we will still apply for filming.
It’s verifiable and every procedure is legal, so who can say it’s not a movie?”
This question made Wang Baoqiang speechless. Yes, as long as the procedures are legal, it can be shown in cinemas, there are actors, and a complete plot, who can say that this is not a movie. At this time, Guo Degang finally knew why this
Sometimes I will call myself.
This time, I want to shoot a big movie called Running Brothers. Who is the director of this movie? Needless to say, everyone can expect it to be Guo Degang.
Sure enough, Ye Ming glanced at Guo Degang and said: "Lao Guo, I guess I can't participate in this matter. When the time comes, you can just find someone to replace me. Of course, if there is a chance, I will rush back to participate in the filming."
Yes, but don’t look for the master to play my cards.
You are the director, and in the first season, you have already done a very good job.
Therefore, I believe you can still do better as a director."
It is said that Guo Degang is a director, but he is really not that good. The movies he shoots lose more money, but at this time, Guo Degang was shooting comedy movies in the 60s and 70s. If you give him a script, his sense of humor
He can still be mobilized very well. Therefore, when shooting similar comedy movies, Guo De is just sour and can make the best use of his talents.
Guo Degang is so excited. He is really excited. This is a sign of trust in himself. Ah, such an important task for the Lunar New Year period can actually fall on his head. You know, talking about the director, Xu Zheng is also
It's quite awesome. The Legend of Zhen Huan was all filmed by Xu Zheng. As a director, Xu Zheng of Brilliant Film and Television is considered the most awesome one.
But the boss still left this matter to me. How much trust did he place in himself?
Therefore, at this moment, Guo Degang suddenly felt like a confidant would die, and he immediately patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, boss, I will handle this matter beautifully for you. I guarantee that the task will be completed on time."
Xu Zheng, a young old artist, thinks about more things. People like this actually live a tiring life. But Xu Zheng is this kind of person. He likes to think about anything when he encounters it.
of.
At this moment, after Ye Ming said this, he was wondering what was going on. He had no intention of competing for the director. He knew that Guo Degang had directed the show "Running Brothers" and had rich experience. Although the theme of the show was controlled by the boss
Yes, but after all, it means that Guo Degang is more familiar with Running Brothers and is more suitable for filming the theatrical version of Running Brothers than himself. But why this happened, made Xu Zheng a little confused.
Therefore, he thought for a while and said: "Boss, I have a question about this matter. Why is it decided to make a Lunar New Year movie like this now? Considering the strength of our company, we can't shoot a Lunar New Year movie with a large investment."
There won’t be much difficulty in doing so.”
Ye Ming glanced at the people in the conference room. Basically, everyone had the same expression. He thought that for such a matter, if it was about shooting a larger movie, it would be more in line with the current situation of Huihuang Film and Television.
of scale.
Ye Ming said with a smile: "I think everyone actually has Xu Zheng's thoughts, but I can tell you a relatively secret news. Do you know how many movies are in this year's Lunar New Year? There are six confirmed ones.
There are already seven projects. This does not rule out the possibility that someone will initiate another project at this time.
Moreover, for this year’s Lunar New Year movie, one of the movies we have to face is Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Terminator Part 3, which is a huge test for the Lunar New Year movie.”
This girl Ma Su is a fan of Schwarzenegger, so she immediately raised her hand and said: "Boss, I heard that the third part of Terminator will be broadcast during the summer vacation this year. Why is it again?"
It’s time for the Lunar New Year.”
Yes, the broadcast schedule of the third part of Terminator has actually been set, and it is similar to the global release time. It will be broadcast in the summer schedule. Although the summer schedule is not as good as the Lunar New Year schedule, no matter it is
Anyway, that's a good schedule.
Moreover, Lunar New Year has always been a taboo for Chinese movies. This is a function of the film protection mechanism. This is the result of a compromise in protecting China's own country's movies. Generally speaking, the Lunar New Year stalls are now reserved for Chinese movies.
Damn it, Hollywood movies and movies from other countries are generally not released during the Lunar New Year period.
Therefore, on such a question, Ma Su was somewhat curious to hear what Ye Ming said.
Ye Mi glanced at Ma Su with a smile and said: "It seems that Ma Su is still very concerned about such a thing. The third part of Terminator was indeed broadcast in the summer season, but it was changed in the end. Warner
The brothers have moved the third installment of Terminator to the Lunar New Year schedule.
Therefore, this time's Lunar New Year movie is not only filled with murderous domestic Lunar New Year films, but even Hollywood blockbusters have begun their own campaign to enclose their territory under such circumstances.
Therefore, there is nothing more terrifying than this issue. We have to face Hollywood blockbusters. When it comes to investment, we can invest in a blockbuster, but investment requires making money.
If compared with the third step of The Terminator, it is simply not good enough.
Therefore, since we say that no matter how much money we invest, we cannot make a Lunar New Year film that can compete with The Terminator, then if we can take a bite out of the Lunar New Year box office, that is already a quite remarkable achievement. We cannot guarantee the box office.
Well, when it comes to a problem like this, we have to work hard on the cost of the movie. Compared with other movies we shoot at the time, the cost is very high, so it is not cost-effective."
This is Ye Ming's plan, to regard the third part of Terminator as an opportunity, an opportunity to let people in the company know that the pot is made of iron.
Huang Bo then said: "Boss, it's also a waste of money to shoot this thing. If we also invite some actors from outside to make guest appearances, then it might cost a lot for such a problem.
Money."
Huang Bo comes from a grassroots background, so when it comes to a problem like this, he is also concerned about cost. If he is looking for someone from outside to perform this time, it will cost a lot of money.
From Huang Bo's point of view, this cost is somewhat unfair. Ye Ming nodded and said: "If you can think of this, it is already a good thing.
But there is a problem. This movie, Run Brothers, is released for the Lunar New Year. It uses actors from Brilliant Film and Television. I have no plans to invite outside actors to participate. Therefore, you can think about the role yourself and see what is suitable."
Naturally, we have to take special care of our own actors. For big movies, we also use our own actors to make the event more lively and festive.
