Chapter 104 The Crazy Racing of the Visiting Team
Before leaving, Guan Ling went to China Film Academy. Han Sanpin said that he had something to talk about and he must come to ask about the situation.
When we arrived at China Film, Han Sanpin was more elegant than when we met him a while ago. As Director Han, he has great power. He has been very active recently, and now he has the aura of a superior person in every move he makes. .
But it is obvious that this temperament was not used on Guan Ling.
Because he called Zhang Song and asked about the situation of "2012",
Zhang Song's answer made Han Sanpin feel heartbroken.
“Awesome, so awesome. Director Han, I dare say that only Guan Ling is the director in China, and only Guan Ling dares to make such a blockbuster. I have seen some clips, and all I can say is This drama can completely stir up China's film market!"
After Guan Ling came to the office, Han Sanpin asked with a smile.
"I heard from Zhang Song that the special effects of "2012" are very good. When will you show me? I'm very curious."
Han Sanpin, who likes blockbusters , eager to see the finished film.
"You called me to China Film Academy just to ask this question?" Guan Ling was speechless.
He thought there was something serious.
"Answer the question first." Han Sanpin put on the big red robe for Guan Ling. Guan Ling took a look and saw that he really had something to talk about.
“Currently, the scenes in the United States have been filmed. In a few days, I will go to Tibet to shoot some scenes in the snowy mountains. After this part is completed, the photographer will need to go to France to shoot the Eiffel Tower and Some shots of the Louvre, but I didn’t go there. In the end, I sent someone to go to the Indian side. The environment there is difficult to simulate in the United States, and it’s too expensive to do with special effects. It’s better to fly there. Actual shooting has begun.
When all these are completed, I estimate that the special effects will be about half done. It is early June, and if time goes well, the film should be completed in August.”
Guan Ling estimated the time, and it will be completed in August, but he still has to confirm the editing work of the finished film. Although Guan Ling has some editing rights, Fox has also sent people, and Guan Ling will definitely have to Keep an eye on it, if there is a problem, Guan still needs to argue and make corrections.
"It still takes so long." Han Sanpin thought for a while and said, "Then it's still the Lunar New Year period. This year, more blockbusters will be introduced. "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" will be released at the end of the month, and in July "Transformers" will be released in August, and "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" will be released in August. In the next few months, your movie will suffer a bit of a box office loss, so it would be better to release it during the Lunar New Year."
"I originally thought it would be better. We are also considering the Lunar New Year period," Guan Ling said.
"The main thing is that I have to schedule the schedule. Huayi's "Assembly" is now confirmed to be released in December. I don't care if you fight in the arena, but I have to think about "The Legend" and "Yangtze River No. 7" Move on, this is my China Film Group’s movie, and I feel bad for competing with you.”
“Move on, there is a National Day holiday, and people still consume enough, but the promotion rhythm needs to change. ”
"The investment in "The Investment Certificate" is 300 million. How can I change it? Anyway, you also inquired about the movie release situation in Hollywood. The two of us met in time and came up with a charter to see when the best time for the movie is to be released. .
Anyway, I just have a good idea, and I will adjust it myself when the time comes."
Han Sanpin said, this matter seems to have been bothering him for a while, and this time it is just right. Ling made it clear to his face.
“I’m calling you here for one more thing. I want to discuss with you the young director support program.
China Film Group is now going to build a production brand. We have just established one with IDG. I have received the China Media Fund, and have even discussed with Emperor, Media Asia and other companies to launch a "China Film Group Youth Director Film Production Plan". I remember that you were recruiting directors a while ago, and this time I am thinking of bringing you on board. After all, I have this award in hand, and I heard that I want to stay in Hollywood. How about bringing some young directors to Hollywood to see the world?”
“China Film is also planning to do this?”
“Why not do it? Now the older generation doesn’t know much about commercial films. The new generation of directors know a lot more, but they still have little knowledge. They have to think of ways. We can’t let them be limited every day. In this one-third of an acre of land.”
“That’s what Director Han said.”
“Speaking of it, this younger generation has nothing to worry about. I’m optimistic about the guy named Lou Ye, but this kid participated in the Cannes Film Festival last year with “The Summer Palace” and was banned by the censors for five years.”
Han Sanpin still has a certain style,
Guan Ling chatted with him for a while and learned that he was preparing for the listing of China Film Group, so he made frequent moves during this period.
From theater cooperation and construction, to the improvement of the production industry chain, to supporting young directors, Han Sanpin has indeed been very busy recently, and the entire China Film Group is following his ambitions and rhythm.
"It's no problem if I go to Hollywood. If I shoot a movie in Hollywood, I can find someone to accompany me."
Guan Ling did not refuse on this point.
"Okay, I'm relieved with your words. After all, you have an Oscar, which is useful in the United States."
"Isn't China Film's name also useful? Director Han, you This is just to tease me." Guan Ling didn't think this was of much use.
“I can’t even praise you enough,” Han Sanpin asked, “I won’t ask about Ning Hao’s “Crazy Racing” because the cost is low, but I still have to ask about its release. And I I met Jiang Wen a while ago. What do you think of his drama? Can China Film get the share? "
"I'm going to let Lingyun Media try it out myself. As for Jiang Wen's film, I can give China Film a 30% share of it. The cost of this film shouldn't be too high. I won't involve Bona. "
Well, it’s hard to gain weight if you eat alone.
For the movie "Let the Bullets Fly", I should try my best to win over China Film Group.
Guan Ling hesitated for a moment, understood what Han Sanpin meant, and took a share. Then he remembered something.
“One more thing, when "2012" is released, will China Film be prepared to make co-productions or introduce split films?"
"It must be to introduce split films, so Fox will You can earn less." Han Sanpin said, "Don't worry about your share. If not, I will work with you Ling Yun to jointly distribute it and let you make a little more money. If you do a co-production, the American producer will at least earn more. Nearly 10% of the domestic box office."
"Okay, let's just settle this matter and let the next person make the connection."
Guan Ling nodded, Han. Sanpin chatted with Guan Ling about the new movie again, and revealed some information. China Film Co., Ltd. was cooperating with Wu Baige and investing 600 million in a blockbuster film that had already begun filming. At that time, Ling Yun was invited, but Ling Yun did not say that he would participate. , but I can’t participate now.
Han Sanpin is very excited. It seems that he has high expectations for the future of this movie.
Before leaving, Guan Ling told Han Sanpin about "2012".
"By the way, Director Han, the promotion of the "2012" movie here in China has begun. If I need your help later, I will contact you."
"The promotion has begun. Is it okay? I haven’t received any notice yet?”
“The propaganda is very vague, and the Internet is full of discussions about the end of the world. It seems that Director Han has not seen the specific details of the propaganda. Let’s talk about it again, but please don’t reveal the name. Keep it secret. Once it is announced, the whole internet will definitely explode.”
"Okay, then I'll wait and see. Anyway, if you need me if you need me, you can talk to me at any time. We and Fox must work together to increase the box office of the movie "2012", otherwise I won't be able to control it. "Don't worry, Director Han. I do have a target for the domestic box office of this movie, but I can't just think about making money at home. Overseas, China Film Group also needs to put some pressure on Fox." , I heard that Fox will have several dramas coming next year. "
"You are a ghost," Han Sanpin said with a smile, that was exactly what he meant.
Leaved China Film and Television and bought a plane for the afternoon.
I was lucky before I got on the plane. I didn’t meet any reporters. I passed the security check early and waited to get on the plane. Opening the portal website, there is quite a lot of news about Guan Ling. Some of the guesses were quite right.
"Guan Lingxin's new movie is suspected to be finished. So far, the title of the new movie has not been announced, and I don't know when it will be seen?"
"According to reliable information, Guan Lingxin There are many special effects in the movie, and a large number of special effects engineers have been recruited in Shanghai and BJ to serve it. The filming of the movie is about to be completed, and the special effects work is still cumbersome.” Art movies will be released at the same time?”
There are also some news that are completely about eating steamed buns with human blood.
"Every party is forcing Andy to apologize. Should Andy pay compensation for the death of Yang Lijuan's father? It is reported that Yang Lijuan sued Liu Dehua through the media and asked him to compensate him for 500,000 in pension."
"Suspected to have been affected by the incident of jumping into the sea, Liu Dehua has not shown up for two months."
"Liu Dehua: We refuse to bear all responsibility."
More than two months It has passed and netizens have forgotten about it, but there are still people who are using this incident to continue to blackmail Liu Dehua.
“Feng Xiaogang was interviewed by this newspaper and turned a deaf ear to Guan Ling’s mention that he was a dog. He asked our reporter, ‘Does a dog bite a man or a man bites a dog?’ He was suspected of retaliating against Guan Ling’s remarks!”< br>
Guan Ling saw it and just smiled knowingly.
Feng Xiaogang always scolded him for everything. He had said so, and Guan Ling would definitely have to scold him back.
The plane took off and landed.
After another long car ride, we finally arrived at the shooting location.
To be honest, this is the first time Guan Ling has arrived in Xiamen.
The filming location is quite artistic. The old town of Xiamen is full of high-rise buildings. It is dilapidated and mottled, but the pictures are really good.
Guan Ling could tell at a glance that this place was exactly the corner house that Huang Bo drove past in the previous life of "Crazy Racing". The two streets intersected and there were sharp turns. On both sides of the road, there were well-preserved The Nanyang arcade architecture is the charm of the hometown of overseas Chinese in southern Fujian.
"Come on, come on, Director Guan is here!"
Ning Hao had received the news a long time ago, took a short rest, and brought the actors to greet Guan Ling.
"Director Guan," Huang Bo came over, holding Guan Ling's hand and not letting go, "This play is really good, and the protagonist was simply written for me. Thank you very much, Director Guan. ”
I didn’t feel it when I read the script, but when I was acting, as soon as Ning Hao narrated the play, Huang Bo suddenly realized that the protagonist of this play was so suitable for him.
Jiu Kong came over and said hello, this man is the host from Taiwan.
“Hello, Director Guan, it’s a pleasure to meet you. Last year I saw you win the Golden Horse Award for Best Director. Now it seems that you are indeed well-deserved. For this drama, our crew are all We discussed what better way to use it, but everyone agreed that it would be difficult to change even one line in this drama."
"Director Ning made the right choice, you are indeed the same as Li Farah in my heart. , they look so similar.”
You still have to praise, Guan Ling couldn’t help but speak.
"Thank you, Director Guan. I can get your approval. It seems that I really look alike."
"Hello, Director Guan, hello, Director Guan."
Jiukong spoke carelessly, Rong Xiang, Xu Zheng, Wang Xun and others were a little less. The anxious Xu Zheng was sweating on the back of his forehead. At this time, he still had hair, and it was the first time to see Guan Ling.
He was too excited.
Everyone moved forward, hoping to be glanced at and remembered by Director Guan.
During the chat, Guan Ling knew that the other party had really put his heart into the discussion of the script. In order to reflect the absurdity of the movie, everyone was satisfied that Rong Xiang would be paired with a ruthless subordinate, a "second "Brother", the actor chosen is Gao Jie, who has always portrayed the image of "big brother" in the past.
In this way, there should be a cool second brother and a somewhat lacking eldest brother, and there should be wonderful sparks in this reverse setting.
While chatting, Guan Ling found out the reason why Rong Xiang came over,
“I was mainly moved by the idea of turning drugs into ashes in your script, Director Guan. It made me laugh for a long time. I’m not angry.”
Everyone chatted for a while, and most of them showed their respect for Guan Ling’s original script.
Guan Ling was quite embarrassed because the script was copied after all.
The real person is still in front of me, so in the end I can only change the subject.
"Why don't you hurry up and film the movie? What's going on with everyone surrounding me?"
"You film yours, and I'll take a look." Guan Ling was rarely interested and wanted to Look at how Ning Hao filmed the scene.
"Then I will shoot it." Ning Hao was not polite, and the scene he wanted to shoot happened to be the scene where Huang Bo and Rong Xiang admitted their differences.
The classic lines came out quickly.
Wind and water, underground CBD, the back garden of life! worth! A lifetime collection!
……This is the latest service launched by our store! See you at eighteen! The water is black!
Looks like a gangster! Is there any! Is there any! Such great service!
I work here every day! I wish I could get one for myself!
If you don’t have the guts, how can you produce anything?
Duai, does this smell wrong?
Ajie, you are too impulsive.
The local gang is so rude!
Guan Ling couldn't help laughing when he watched Ning Hao filming, especially the scene where he tasted the ashes in the taxi.
“This southern Fujian accent is so interesting!”
Guan Ling said.
“The main script is very compact, every paragraph is not wasted, and every character is three-dimensional and worth savoring.” Ning Hao began to praise again.
Guan Ling is sweating, why is this happening again?
“Hurry up and take pictures, and have a meal tonight.”
Guan Ling quickly changed the subject.
