Chapter 391: All over the world, just look at it! The bard sings again!
"I happen to have to discuss this matter with Director Guan today. Who said the roles have already been decided?"
Lu Zheng said rather unexpectedly, "The share allocation of Lingyun Media will not be announced until today. It’s completely finalized. Both Ye Ning and I will be present. For this role, I will try to have him appear in Director Guan’s cooperation content.”
“It was said on the Internet that a female star went to see Director Guan yesterday. I didn’t know why.”
“Don’t cry yet. I will call you after the meeting this morning. You know the truth best.”< br>
After a few words of persuasion, I hung up the phone.
Lu Zheng read the news on the Internet and found out that Zhao Xiaodao, the actress who did the splitting, made a small circle.
Just the information on the news made the road manager himself a little unsure.
Have you really given such a little-known actress a chance?
Enlarge the photo and take a closer look.
To be honest, the other person's face seemed rounder than Jingtian's.
I just don’t know if this character’s requirements and definition of a circle are so realistic?
The road administration is having a headache.
He is also aware of Guan Ling's routine, which focuses on being unpredictable.
The entertainment industry is not big to begin with, and gossip is gossiped in private. Guan Ling's previous grievances and grievances with Huayi are also well known to the road administration.
Just for a role in a movie.
"Hearing Girl"!
Without even reading the script, Li Bingbing dared to attack without even looking at his age!
Originally, this matter was over, but Huayi had a trick of its own and deliberately flattered Guan Ling, hoping that the newly minted director would be beaten to pieces.
After all, when he went to Hollywood, no one liked him.
Maybe you still have the idea of buying the dip.
It’s just that this wave of operations turned Huayi itself into a second-tier company.
So if Guan Ling really decides on this role, he is really worried that it will not be easy to handle.
In the previous "Ip Man" series, Donnie Yen asked Guan Ling to change his role just because of a few words during an interview.
If someone is really appointed, things will not be easy to handle. We can only talk about the soft ones, not the hard ones.
Even Wanda is not easy to handle him now.
After all, Guan Ling himself is now a shareholder of Dadi Cinemas.
If the other party really falls out, will Wanda Cinema not be able to watch the other party’s movies? That would be really funny!
Pay to replace someone? Is that okay?
Lu Zheng has no idea in his heart.
It's just that he chatted too late.
The road manager sighed.
Xing Han is not short of money. For a "Warring States" movie, they invested 150 million in Jin Chen, a little-known director of Xiying Studio.
All this is for the sake of sweetness.
Try to satisfy Tiantian’s film and television dreams.
But Jingtian seems to have an obsession with starring in Guan Ling's movie.
The less she can get, the more she wants it.
"Otherwise, if I really can't get a role in this drama, I will talk to Director Guan and ask him to write a script?"
This is what Lu Zheng thought in his heart.
Although you can’t buy roles with money, can you buy scripts from the main office?
I can give to Zhang Yimou, I can give to Brother Chen Kai, I can give to so many people, and he is not short of a star.
The worst case scenario is that if you invest more, your share will be given to Director Guan, and it will just be the screenwriter’s fee! Give him more and give him a small goal!
But now that the matter has come to this, it is impossible for him to call Guan Ling now to ask. Everything can only be discussed at today's meeting.
……
On the second day of the premiere, Lingyun Media once again welcomed top figures in the digital industry.
At the same time, Wanda Cinema, chaired by Ye Ning, and Dadi Cinema, chaired by Yan Yu, also appeared on the scene due to their friendly relationship with Guan Ling.
Every play with everyone is settled in the past.
It was not until the evening that the investment shares of all the movies that appeared yesterday were finally finalized.
For domestic films, Lingyun Media accounts for more than 50% of them. Since this is Guan Ling’s script, Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou’s personal companies also want to invest, and Guan Ling is also based on Lingyun Media. After subsidies, apart from the reduced director's fee, in real terms, Ling Yun's proportion in these films is less than 45%.
Guan Ling doesn't care that much anymore.
After all, the entertainment industry is a circle, and those who eat alone will always be targeted. Cooperate and share resources, and it is not impossible to participate in investment in some movies that others make money.
As for new movies, "Partners in China" shocked everyone present again!
Every boss also read the summary of the script of "Partners in China" on the spot. They met with Mr. Yu yesterday to authorize it. Today, the script has been put in front of everyone.
To be honest, everyone is so shocked that they don’t know what to say!
As for the foreign movie "Gone Girl", the share given to them by Guan Ling was only 15% in total.
There is no way. After all, the share swap agreement with Lionsgate Films stipulates that if you make money for Lionsgate, after the final shares are transferred to Guan Ling, they will still be yours.
The domestic share is purely to unite the East Asian market.
Some plots are not easy to review and release in China, even if the plot is modified at that time, it will not be impossible.
Special edition for Mainland China!
Foreign films are often done.
At the meeting, Guan Ling told everyone that one of the characters who had already been cast was Zhang Ziyi, but everyone had no reaction.
Don’t look at the scolding in public opinion.
In fact, to the people present, it was nothing more than scratching the surface. Zhang Ziyi’s image had caused an uproar since that year after the fiery red beach door, and even as far back as the bellyband.
But all this does not affect her international image.
Just like the incident involving Zhao Zhetian at the beginning of the century, it was actually a serious mistake.
While causing an uproar, she was not given the trial she deserved.
That is to say, the Internet is not that developed yet, otherwise this guy would be finished long ago.
So, abandon the rapid spread of the Internet.
Zhang Ziyi is the absolute best casting choice for a movie produced in the United States.
Before the visit, the movie that Emperor Yang had been looking forward to was released by Guan Ling.
""Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Pests"!"
Seeing this name, Mr. Yang was stunned for a moment, "Is this the story in my memory? "Shi Shuo Xin Yu"?"
< br>"Yes and no."
Guan Ling said, "We won't do the budget for this project today, but you can take the script back and read it first. I need to confirm Mr. Yang's casting."
Guan Ling did not plan to shoot this movie by himself, mainly because it would be troublesome to pass the review.
In Hong Kong, this consideration does not exist.
Moreover, there have been enough police and gangster films in Hong Kong, and there are all kinds of "sir" and "sir" movies everywhere. Guan Ling also felt that this drama needs to be used by Hong Kong film and television practitioners to wash their eyes.
As for why it was not filmed in Taiwan, Guan Ling believes that the box office of this movie in Taiwan may not be as good as that in Hong Kong, because many of the stories in it can probably be based on Hong Kong.
"Let's celebrate tonight?"
After everything was finalized, the road manager took the initiative to propose.
"It's just that the investment has been finalized, so why celebrate?" Han Sanpin said, "It won't be too late to wait until the box office of "Hurricane 3" is released."
"Speaking of the box office, we have been arguing all day and we haven't talked yet. How do you feel about the confidence of the director of these movies? Are you confident that you can do "Avatar"? Or, can you directly break the record of "Inception"?"
He asked suddenly, with expectation in his eyes.
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately looked at Guan Ling.
Waiting for Guan Ling’s answer.
Guan Ling moved his body. He actually didn't think about what to say.
After hesitating for a moment, he spoke slowly. "Actually, you don't have to worry about this year's highest box office record. Believe me, this year's box office record will be broken soon. But the person who breaks it may not be me."
"But there is a high probability that it will be a movie produced by me."
The first sentence was very modest, and the second sentence after it was so irritating that the following was suddenly agitated.
But what he said is not wrong. In the past two years, Guan Ling's personal box office, Ling Yun's total box office, whether it is film output or output value, Ling Yun has been the absolute Chinese overlord! Ferris Lingyun is also one of the very profitable ones in Hollywood.
Guan Ling also deserves to be the number one director in China.
"Let's go, let's go. It's boring to talk."
Ren Zhonglun was envious after hearing this.
Everyone is so happy after investing, there is no need to listen to your pretense!
Wang Changtian also hummed speechlessly.
Guan Ling's voice continued,
"The Chinese market is very large and is growing very fast every year. I believe that it may reach another peak this year. And the record for the highest box office , being broken means that the market is recovering, which is a good thing for all of us
Maybe in the future, we will all look at the current "Inception" and "Avatar". There will be some different feelings.
You guys have to have confidence in my script and the directors' filming. Hollywood movies are not something that cannot be surpassed, even if they are excellent movies from all over the world. It’s just a look, we all have a chance.”
Guan Ling briefly chatted with everyone again.
Only seeing Brother Chen Kai suddenly became excited there.
"Director Guan, you are young, but you didn't expect that you have the same hobbies as me?!"
Everyone was a little confused!
Han Sanpin seemed to think of some bad memories, and his scalp went numb in an instant!
"It's started, he's going to start!"
He has seen Brother Chen Kai like this. He made this mistake once when he was running for the general director of the Olympic Games.
Are you sick again?
No, is this because you are excited because you have finally decided to cooperate with Guan Ling?
Are you still touched by what Guan Ling said?
The next second,
As expected,
Brother Chen Kai has become more impressive.
He raised one arm and talked eloquently,
“Actually, what Director Guan said is what I want to say.
I am very confident and very hopeful. I can make the movie "Along with the Gods: Crime and Punishment"
Everyone knows that I have this ability.
I just heard what Director Guan said at this moment. It really made me burst into tears, and Director Guan’s acting was really good.
Those casual and plain words made people feel emotional, and made me feel that our Chinese film market is now as good as the others. Tang Bohu's poem is exactly the same, climbing up step by step
The upper limit of each director is also constantly increasing
Although Director Guan is young, he is still very well-educated in Chinese studies.
That poem,
really makes me want to share it with everyone.
This is a limerick by Tang Bohu. It was said casually by Director Guan today. It is also a good story.
Up and up and up again,
Up to the mountains.
Raising your head, the red sun and white clouds are rising,
You can see all the seas and five lakes.
With the director of these scripts and the people here here, what does China Film have to worry about?
The dividends of our population, our growing number of screens, and our group of people who work hard to make movies.
Sooner or later, our Chinese films will be like Hollywood films and stand on the top of the world film market! ”
Everyone in the room was stunned.
An old poet?!
I have long heard that Lao Chen recited poems whenever he felt emotional, but many people at the scene were still the first to See you again!
Would you like to applaud?
But many people still kept their toes on the ground, and for a moment they didn’t know what to say.
You guys. It’s too high, even we can’t catch it!
I have to say that as a director, Brother Chen Kai is really full of poetry, and others can’t catch it!
It’s just that some people are silent!
A celebrity deserves to be a poet, even if he is embarrassed, he should be embarrassed and elegant!
The bard is honest and doesn't bully me! It’s really anytime, anywhere... Yin!
However, this is director Guan’s home field. You haven’t even filmed their script yet, so you’re already working on your ambitions? !
After "The Orphan of Zhao", I didn't pay enough, and my mind was wandering.
......
Actually, the road manager didn't think that everyone would really celebrate. It was just a subtext to let everyone leave quickly.
Wait until everyone has withdrawn.
Lu Zheng and Ye Ning haven't left yet.
"Director Guan, in the meeting just now, everyone tacitly understood some of the supporting roles, and everyone in the protagonist also understands your temperament. There are no tough requirements, just recommendations."
Road Zheng said, "But I still want to strongly add to what was discussed in the meeting just now. Can the round face in the movie "Along with the Gods" be given to Jing Tian? Xing Han brilliant is willing to give Ling Yun a comparison of money on the basis of the existing share. ...Twenty million."
He paused, "Director Guan can regard it as a premium on the share and add another 20 million, and the share remains unchanged."
This sincerity is not lacking. On the basis of the already determined share, 20 million was given out for free.
Just for a role.
Even in the total investment, this discount accounts for 8%.
Xinghan Brilliant’s share is already small, and United Wanda’s share is only 9%.
This is more than twice the premium of Chun Chun!
At that time, the box office will only make money, assuming the movie sells one billion.
In fact, the share they both hold together cannot earn 20 million.
Including the initial investment premium, this is an absolute loss.
Ye Ning also paused and said, "No matter what competitors this movie encounters, we can guarantee that this movie's schedule will definitely be the highest."
"You You two, are you prepared?”
Guan Ling glanced at the two of them, "This Jingtian..."
He pointed to the northwest.
“A high-ranking official?”
Lu Zheng nodded, “She really wants to act in your movie.”
“But this movie is confusing. They look familiar," Guan Ling said. "The main roles are in the three male roles. Are you sure you want to change?"
This is an exchange of interests, and Guan Ling is obviously more profitable, so he can't refuse.
But Guan Ling also pays attention to fairness.
Things still need to be explained in advance.
Ye Ning hesitated for a moment,
The road manager looked at Guan Ling and proposed a new plan:
"In other words, we can prepare a new movie. Director Guan, do you think Jingtian can act...
It would be best for you to write the screenplay, and it would be even better if you can direct it.
Of course, this is all up to you to judge.
What I can guarantee is that we will definitely give you a price that you are absolutely satisfied with.
Even as I just said. The 20 million will also be included in the content of this cooperation.
If it is true that Director Guan does not have a suitable new movie. Even if he is not the absolute protagonist of the movie "Along with the Gods", it will be fine."
Road Zheng has a good attitude, but Guan Ling can see that he is indeed nervous.
Guan Ling didn't speak, just thought deeply...
