The third thousand two hundred and twenty-three chapters underground movie 'Black Mine'

  At this time, Director Li Dongfeng was also a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and said: "Our crew is relatively small, and the subject matter I filmed is also relatively sensitive. There is a high probability that it will not be released publicly. At most, it is

It’s possible to take the outside route and throw all the money in. Of course, it depends on the opportunity.”

Ye Ming then said curiously: "Director, it would be better for you to make it clear. What exactly are you going to film? Normally, no one would miss this kind of filming opportunity, especially if it is the male lead, who is definitely competing for it.

If you grab it, even if it may not be released, it is still a rare opportunity to show off your talents. I think you shouldn’t be unable to find the leading male lead. What kind of movie are you going to make? Let’s hear it.”

Director Li Dongfeng no longer hid, nodded and said: "Okay, if you want to know, I'll introduce it to you. The movie I want to shoot is about a black coal kiln, and I plan to shoot it on location.

.

So, you need to find someone who is of the right age and is willing to participate. The salary cannot be too high. After all, we are also a grassroots team. I reluctantly put together a crew. If the price you want to be the leading role is too high, then it will be a bit

It’s no longer appropriate.”

At this time, Ye Ming was stunned. He immediately gave a bitter smile and said: "Director Li, it is not only impossible to film this thing, but with your subject matter, I dare not say that it will not be broadcast normally."

Yeah, even if you film this movie, it's absolutely impossible to allow it to be shown in China.

It's impossible for you to pass the test. If you want to shoot this thing on the spot, my dear, who would be willing to go? Places like black coal mines are inherently more dangerous, and if you want to actually go and shoot a movie, you're basically going to use your head.

Don't do it on your waistband, and it's hard to say whether it will be successful, and it's even harder to say if it hits your hand."

At this time, director Li Dongfeng said very righteously: "This is for art, right? It's impossible to do everything for money. If I make a movie for money, I won't be able to make this movie."

, as for us, this is really for the sake of art, so we made this movie.

We want to shoot real things, you know? We want to show the real side of working people, so that movie audiences can understand that some of us still live in that state. As a filmmaker, people must have a sense of responsibility for the times.

.

You can’t always keep money in mind. What will happen if you don’t have money?

If you don’t have money, why don’t you make movies? If you have money, there are ways to make movies with money. If you don’t have money, there are ways to make movies without money. This matter must be carefully considered before doing it. After thinking clearly, don’t worry about what other people do.

He said, just keep doing it. Well, of course, my teacher also advised me not to go all the way. But, I always feel that I should do more things for myself while I am young, leaving a

Youth without regrets.

So when I get older, it will probably be difficult for me to have such passionate impulses. I have already thought of the name of this movie, it’s called Black Mine. Aren’t there blood diamonds in Africa? What about those little folk songs here?

It's called a black mine. If you've never been to those small private coal mines, the living conditions are simply prohibitive.

Our country's state-owned enterprises and large enterprises all take protective measures first before mining coal. If they do not take protective measures, they will not start work at all. Everything is done in accordance with safety standards, but those are large state-owned enterprises.

, I must have done this well.

But those privately mined in small coal mines are different. They can basically guarantee that the pit will not collapse. In such a situation, how much safety can one person have? So, I think

This matter should be recorded and let everyone know about it. Of course, we will try our best to keep it as it is, and we will go down to the well to take pictures this time.

 As for the movie Black Mine, I tried to restore it as much as possible. There won’t be too much reality and there will be a deduction part. To be precise, ours can be said to be a documentary film. I think this is the responsibility of a filmmaker.”

At this time, Ye Ming nodded and said: "This is quite good, but your input-output ratio will not be directly proportional. You must understand this, how and how much we will spend on shooting, do you have this

I haven't considered it.

 Obviously it’s impossible for anyone to invest in a movie like this, right?

You have to find a way to solve such a problem by yourself. If you can't solve it, then everything is empty talk. Even if you try to save as much as possible and want to make a movie, it is not a small amount. As for Li Dengfeng, I will say this right away, you

Don't worry, I have already obtained the start-up capital of 100,000 yuan, and I have also contacted my colleagues over there, saying that after some of the three major European institutions are established, they can all participate.

Although it is impossible for our movie to be broadcast in China, we can go to foreign countries to participate in exhibitions. When the time comes, once someone likes our movie, we can at least guarantee that we will not lose money, and may even make a profit.

Point some money.

 Of course making money is not my purpose, now my purpose is to make this movie.”

At this time, Ye Ming's eyes widened in surprise, and then he shook his head and said: "Director Li, I'm not pouring cold water on you and asking for 100,000 yuan. I think if you want to shoot and complete this movie, maybe

It's not very sexy. 100,000 yuan is a little too little.

Anyway, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a movie crew that paid 100,000 yuan since I was a child. Just like a TV show host who can only shoot two or three episodes, he can’t be that shabby. For 100,000 yuan,

And that’s just counting the entire filming of the movie. As for us people, we don’t have to pay for food, drink, and other things, as well as film remuneration and so on.

  Don’t blame me for being direct. You must think carefully about the remuneration and so on. After all, I also have to live a life for him, right? I can’t use love to generate electricity.”

Director Li Dongfeng was very open-minded about this matter. He nodded and said, "That's for sure. There must be a salary. I can't let you act for free. I told our crew. So, um, this male lead

The remuneration for the film is 8,000 yuan, and the remuneration for the heroine is 7,900. Because of the heroine, I found a more professional person to smoke, and we agreed that the 7,900 yuan would be more for the protagonist. I hope you don’t mind this.

Because if the male protagonist is not a professional, it is best for the female protagonist to be more professional to ensure the quality of the entire movie."

 Under normal circumstances, unless it is a TV series with a female protagonist, the male lead's salary is basically higher than that of the female lead. This should be a common unspoken rule.

 Because relatively speaking, unless it is a big heroine, the male protagonist of a TV series needs to spend more time on the camera than the heroine, and he should be rewarded for the extra work.

  And at the same level, generally speaking, the salary of male stars is higher than that of female stars. This is also the normal salary in the entertainment industry. Whether it is China, Hollywood, or other countries, this is basically the case.

This time in Black Mine, Ye Ming's salary is almost the same as that of the heroine. This is a bit of a bad rule. Therefore, Director Li must make it clear, otherwise, Ye Ming will easily get misunderstood.

Director Li really wants to make this movie well. Even if it is destined to become an underground movie, he still wants it to have a high degree of completion.

So it was impossible for him to lay this mine until the filming of the movie started. He had to make it clear in advance.

Ye Ming also understood at this moment. After all, in Director Li's eyes, he was considered a newcomer. Besides, Director Li didn't recognize him as the former child star Ye Ming, so in the eyes of the director, he was unprofessional.

Therefore, at this moment, Ye Ming shook his head with a smile and said: "This is not a big deal, as long as I am the leading actor, the rest does not have much to do with me.

As for this movie, I can agree to shoot it, but it has to be written in the contract. If I feel that my life is threatened, I have to withdraw at any time. After all, Director Li just said that he would shoot this thing on location. I

I keep a certain degree of vigilance towards those private folk songs and so on. So, once I feel that there is danger, I may quit immediately. I hope the director can understand this."

Director Li Dongfeng thought for a while, and it was human nature, so he nodded and said: "Okay, if something is really life-threatening, in such a situation, I can't stop you, right? What should I do?

Why can this be written into the contract? However, I have also told you first that we are shooting on location this time, and of course we are going to shoot on location.

 It is not an artificial set, it is a real shooting inside a small coal mine. You have to remember this. Don’t blame me for not reminding you when the time comes, it must be a direct shooting on the spot.

If you promise to endure the hardship, we can sign a contract. To be honest, I found the leading actors more than one or two times and told them more than once what kind of movie I was starring in and what kind of movie they needed.

As for the male lead, two of them had already agreed, but when they heard that I was going to shoot in a small coal mine, they all refused.

  So, you have to think carefully. What I want is to actually shoot inside the little cotton-padded jacket. Don’t blame me for not telling you when the time comes. If you don’t agree after signing the contract, that won’t work.”

At this time, Ye Ming also nodded happily and said: "Don't worry, director, of course I will understand this problem. Shooting on location is shooting on location. This is not a big deal. For the sake of art, I have made a little sacrifice.

, such a thing is also worth it.

Director Li Dongfeng at this time, his eyes lit up and he nodded very happily and said: "Well, if you can understand that business, then it's the best. I'm afraid that when the actors don't understand and start filming, then someone will directly

For these reasons, I quit,

This thing seems to be somewhat dangerous. I want to make it clear that mines, especially small private coal mines, are bound to have some unpredictable dangers. I actually went to investigate and found that there is a certain degree of danger this time. I

Let me make it clear to you, of course, I will definitely accompany you, no matter where the crew goes, I, the director, will definitely accompany you, you can rest assured about this."

 It seems that Li Dongfeng really wants to shoot this movie. As a director, if he insists on not going down the well, this kind of thing is not impossible for him.

Recommended, [ app ] is really good, worth installing for all book friends, it is supported by Android and Apple phones!

Anyway, let the cameraman go down with the camera to shoot, and then the director waits on the ground. This kind of thing is not impossible. So since the director said at this time that he wanted to go down the well together, it means that this time,

He really wanted to make a good movie.

Because if he was waiting at the entrance of the well, he would not have observed some things carefully enough, and the effect of the shot may not be the same as what he thought. But if the director also went directly to the well immersed in the scene, then this matter

There won't be any big problem.

After all, if the entire crew is the same for this kind of movie, it proves that the director really wants to make a good movie, instead of trying to trick newcomers into taking risks.

So at this time, Ye Ming thought about it and nodded and said: "Okay, no problem, I agree to this, but the filming time cannot be too long. If you sue me for two months of filming, this is unlikely.

, because he still has to go to school, right? I only asked for leave for two months in total, and it has been more than a month now. At most, it only gives you one month to shoot. If you take too many photos, it will be impossible.

After all, if I delayed my studies, it would be hard for me to explain to the school. No matter what, I still need to be a student. If I want to get into the film school without a student status, then they won’t recognize me even if I get into the film school.

Me, right?"

Li Dongfeng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Aren't you a college student here yet? I thought you were a student at the film school.

 In this area, like your decadent outfit, such a unique contrasting effect, besides the Art School, only the students from the Film School can produce it."

Ye Ming immediately shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "This is an accident. I participated in a training class some time ago. So, after participating in the training class, I began to digest and absorb some of the results of the training class. In the past few days,

I didn’t dress myself up properly and ended up with this kind of virtue.

 After finally digesting and assimilating what I learned, I wanted to go out for a walk and get some fresh air before talking about anything else. Then I’ll meet you, Director Li.”

In fact, after hearing this, Ye Ming understood very well. At this time, he should have encountered a movie like The Blind Shaft. This should be a contrast in parallel time and space. Only now has someone like Li Dongfeng appeared.

A director wants to make a movie like Blind Shaft.
