Chapter 85: You, uncle, don’t recognize anyone in vain
"Uncle Han, long time no see, you are so charming."
Xu Ming had a sincere smile on his face and bowed slightly, but he didn't look flattering.
"When I hear your name, my ears are calloused."
Han Sanping said casually: "Master Zhang praised you a lot here. You can contact him more when you have time."
Hearing this, Xu Ming was startled and said: "It's my fault. Mainly because I think Director Zhang has been very busy recently, so I haven't contacted him."
Imperial Master, how can you please me?
Fortunately, I don't have any bottom line, otherwise my conscience would be poked.
In this way, I won’t copy your plays from now on.
Although there is really nothing to copy...
"How are the preparations for your new movie going? I see that the online casting event is in full swing."
"This provides a new idea for us filmmakers. Do you need any help? For example, with the actors or the team." Han Sanping said slowly.
Since he dared to say this, he was not afraid of Xu Ming's demands.
Unexpectedly, the latter shook his head: "There is really no need, but there is a lack of investment. Do you think China Film Group will come to invest some time? Less is never too little, and too much is never too much."
Jiang Wen turned his head and looked at him in surprise.
No, eldest nephew, can Tianer still talk like this?
You damn near stuffed someone's share of the movie into someone's pocket, trying to force a friendship.
"Hahaha, okay, I'll send someone to deliver the money to you later."
"By the way, there are corresponding support funds and subsidies for young filmmakers like you. Remember to fill out the form below when the time comes. In addition, banks will provide targeted interest-free loans. If you need it, just take it."
Han Sanping has a friendly face. He likes to deal with young people like Xu Ming who know how to advance and retreat.
The most important thing is that they are talented.
The cost of a campus film like "To Youth" is not much higher.
But the casting activity before filming started has aroused the interest.
It’s hard not to make money from this film.
The investment share offered by Xu Ming will make China Film's financial statements look better next year, and the treatment received by the latter will also be legal and compliant.
Isn’t it the best of both worlds?
The two are affectionate uncles and affectionate nephews, and their relationship becomes closer after a conversation.
Wait until one by one to place incense and worship the gods, uncover the red cloth head, and complete a series of procedures.
Han Sanping and other investors left one after another.
Xu Ming found an opportunity to grab Jiang Wen and asked, "Just now, Director Han said how much support funds and subsidies for young filmmakers are there?"
"If you add a piece of miscellaneous items, it is estimated to be around two million. The key is the interest-free loan. The amount is not low, and the pressure on your capital chain will be much less."
Jiang Wen sighed with emotion: "Your uncle's call is true, and you have enough psychological quality to lie without blinking an eyelid. Does your movie seem to lack investment?"
"Hey, you don't understand this. The investment I lack is not money, but people." Xu Ming said meaningfully.
"I'm your uncle too, how about I vote for you too?" Jiang Wenle said.
"You are different." Xu Ming said.
"Why is it different?"
"Our friendship is not between uncle and nephew."
"What's that?" Jiang Wen raised his eyebrows.
Xu Ming waved to the other party and said, "It's at my aunt."
"You fucking..."
By the time Jiang Wen realized that he was being tricked, the other party had already run away happily.
He laughed angrily, mainly because this kid was so mean. Not only did he not hate it, he found it even more interesting.
In other words, Xu Ming called himself uncle and got a million-dollar salary.
I called Mr. Han uncle and received a support subsidy and an interest-free loan.
Good boy, you didn’t recognize this uncle in vain.
……
The second day of filming.
Xu Ming's originally scheduled role was cancelled.
It was mainly after filming started that Jiang Wen remembered to ask him if he could ride a horse. Xu Ming said that he could ride any horse, but not a real horse.
So I left it to the equestrian coach for surprise training.
By the end of the day, I was not familiar with Ma, but I was familiar with other actors.
"Brother Jun, your equestrian skills are pretty good."
Xu Ming looked at Hu Jun galloping on the pasture and said with envy.
"You can practice your skills by filming costume dramas a few more times."
Hu Jun tightened the reins and rode over at a leisurely pace, "You are still young and have plenty of opportunities to learn. When I was as old as you, I didn't even know how to fart."
"That's what it means. We have been filming for many years. If we didn't learn some skills, our life would be in vain. But you are so popular. In the future, there will be martial arts substitutes for filming scenes, and horse substitutes for circus filming. I heard that they are available in Hengcheng. The actor will be in charge of showing his face when the text is replaced," Liao Fan followed.
The more the film and television industry develops, the more seniors like them cannot understand it.
"Haha, where is this? It wouldn't be surprising if an actor reads one, two, three, four of his lines and then dubs them later." Xu Ming said.
Ugh~
Everyone felt uncomfortable just thinking about that scene.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
This is not a matter of professional ethics, it is a matter of losing face.
By the way, Hu Jun, Liao Fan and Liu Jialing acted together in "Curiosity Killed the Cat" two years ago.
In that movie, there was also a supporting actress named Xiao Song Jia.
The circle is so small.
"Don't mention these embarrassing things. Let's go. It's time to have lunch. I heard that Director Feng is coming today and the lunch will include chicken legs."
Hu Jun dismounted and a group of people headed in the direction of the crew.
Passing by the train track, I met Jiang Wen, Feng Xiaogang and others gathered together to talk loudly.
"The horse pulls the train, the steam cooks the hot pot, the picture is enough, but before the train comes, I think there is still a piece of music missing that can bring out the atmosphere."
Jiang Wen scratched his head, he was always thinking and thinking.
It is common for a script to be changed on the spot as soon as it is written.
By the end of the shoot, the investors were lucky to be able to use half of it.
"You might as well wait until the filming of this song is finished before you think about it." Feng Xiaogang advised.
"No, I didn't think of this song in advance, and the picture won't taste like it when I shoot it." Jiang Wen shook his head.
Seeing this situation, Feng Xiaogang didn't bother to persuade him and let the other party ponder.
He is a smart man, otherwise he would not have been able to make a typical commercial movie like "If You Are the One", and he cannot be said to have no ideas, otherwise he would not have been able to make "1942".
Also playing with metaphors, his "Youth" is about making dumplings for a little bit of vinegar, while Jiang Wen's "The Sun Also Rises" is simply a bowl of vinegar.
From this point of view, there is a clear difference between the two directors' styles.
He called the audience trash, but he was still thinking about what the audience would like.
Jiang Wen simply has no audience in his eyes.
Just eat whatever I do. The ingredients are good, and it’s your problem if you can’t get used to them.
A group of people accompanied Jiang Wen and stood beside the train track, thinking about this trivial matter for half an hour.
Until Hu Jun and others passed by.
When Jiang Wen saw Xu Ming, he subconsciously teased Menzi and said, "Eldest nephew, do you think that before this train comes, what kind of song will be played that has some artistic conception?"
""Farewell"."
Xu Ming didn't even raise his eyelids, thinking about the chicken drumsticks in the lunch box.
Recently, he has been required to strictly control his figure and eat meat and fish in a rationed amount.
As for Jiang Wen's question, he didn't have to think about it at all. This song was at the beginning of the movie. As a senior bullet fan, it is engraved in his DNA.
"How are you singing that song?"
Hu Jun and others also didn't take it seriously and just thought Xu Ming was being ridiculous.
"Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road~"
“The grass is green and the sky is green~”
