Chapter 144 You are a smart person
A man in his thirties, with a tall nose and deep eyes, and brown hair introduced himself: "Hello, Mr. Yang. I am a staff member sent by EMI to contact you. , is also the French representative for this shoot, my name is Adam."
Then he said to Adjani: "Miss Adjani, long time no see!"
After the three of them got to know each other. , Adam said: "Mr. Yang, Citroën has agreed to provide a sponsorship of five million francs, but they have a requirement. Both Citroën and Peugeot must appear in our movie."
Compared to Fashion Kung Fu Movies One of the obvious advantages of Kung Fu movies and costume Kung Fu movies in the early Republic of China is that they can include advertisements.
In particular, fashion and kung fu movies often feature car chases, so it is natural to insert car advertisements at this time.
In the original version of "Food Truck", Chen Long was sponsored by Mitsubishi Motors. However, due to some historical reasons, Yang Ye didn't like Mitsubishi very much, so he did not go to Japan to discuss cooperation.
And now the filming of "Food Truck" has been moved to France, and the heroine has also invited Adjani, so Yang Ye naturally has the idea of Citroen.
Citroën and Peugeot are both well-known French car brands, but they merged in 1976.
It’s hard to tell which of these two brands is higher and which is lower. Generally speaking, Citroën’s positioning is more family-oriented, while Peugeot’s positioning is more business-oriented.
Yang Ye smiled and said: "You spend the same money to do two things, Citroën knows how to do it. Then mark the food truck with Citroen's logo, and use Peugeot for the car chase scene later."
These days, the franc is trading against the U.S. dollar. The exchange rate is about 5.5:1, which is similar to the Hong Kong dollar. The sponsorship fee of five million is already a sky-high price. Many movies in Hong Kong do not have a box office of five million.
This news came back to Hong Kong, and the industry exclaimed again: This is called an international blockbuster!
Adam said: "As we thought, we have modified a food truck according to your requirements. It's a pity that you won't star in this movie yourself. Otherwise, I can talk about higher implants. Expenses."
Yang Ye said with a smile: "It's easy to talk about, when they pay for it."
EMI sent Adjani to Hollywood last year to film an action film "The Tiger's Mouth". As a result, the film's reputation collapsed after its release, with rave reviews and a disastrous box office failure in North America.
Despite this, the French people still gave a lot of support. The movie did well at the box office in France, which shows how much the French love Adjani.
After failing to enter Hollywood, EMI set its sights on the East again. Yang Ye's movies have a huge influence in Japan and Southeast Asia. If Adjani can enter the Japanese market with "Food Truck", then Also very good.
Yang Ye also knows that it is difficult to gain weight by eating alone, and invited EMI to invest in the film. Therefore, EMI attaches great importance to this cooperation and has spared no effort to support it.
After Adam left, Yang Ye held Adjani's hand, kissed the back of her smooth hand, and said: "Isabel, this cooperation was only possible because of your mediation. Thank you for your hard work. ”
Adjani said regretfully: "It was really hard to shoot that movie in Hollywood. The role was not challenging at all. I was expressionless throughout the whole process. It was enough to just stand there and say my lines. I didn't even have a few lines. I It feels like it was a terrible mistake to take that movie. Nick, I hope it will turn out well this time."
Yang Ye smiled: "You only existed as a vase in that movie, but. In our movie, I will design some action scenes for you to have fun.”
This made Adjani very happy: “Really?”
< br>Yang Ye said: "Of course, Hollywood doesn't know how to shoot fighting scenes. Men don't know how to fight, let alone women. So in their action movies, women can only be used as vases. But in Hong Kong movies, there are a lot of Heroine, have you seen "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"?"
Ajani said: "Of course I have, it's a great movie. After watching it, I really want to fly like in the movie."
Yang Ye laughed loudly and said: "What we are shooting this time is a fashion film. You can't fly, but I can let you show off your Wing Chun."
"That's not bad!" Jiani was a little eager to give it a try.
……
One day later, Xu Feng arrived in Paris.
“There was something going on with Master, so I shot a few more scenes, but it was too late.”
As soon as she saw Yang Ye at the airport, she said apologetically.
Xu Feng respected Hu Jinquan very much and always called him master. If Hu Jinquan had not chosen her, she might not be a worker in a textile factory now.
Yang Ye kissed her face and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I've only been here for two days."
After the two returned to the hotel, they naturally had a fierce battle!
Afterwards, Yang Ye stroked a faint scar on Xu Feng's body and asked, "How did you do this?"
Xu Feng said calmly: "When I was filming "The Heroine", I was scratched by a bamboo."
Yang Ye said: "Except for Lao Hu's movies, don't take on other people's movies from now on."
< br>Xu Feng said nervously: "You ask me to be the producer, I don't know how to do it at all!"
Yang Ye said with a smile: "I heard that the actors in Lao Hu's crew have part-time jobs, What is your part-time job?”
Xu Feng said: “I manage props and create smoke.”
Yang Ye said: "Managing props is one of the tasks that a supervisor is responsible for."
The so-called supervisor is mainly responsible for the total budget of the film crew and the preparation of the specific shooting schedule of the film, supervising on behalf of the producer The director's artistic creation and financial expenditures, and also assist the director in arranging specific daily affairs.
In short, he is the general manager of the studio, in charge of everything!
To use an analogy, the director is equivalent to the team leader, and the producer is equivalent to the political commissar. Many novice directors need the help of reliable supervisors to help solve various situations that require experience and professional knowledge.
But Yang Ye is a strong director, equivalent to Li Yunlong, and Xia Meng is his Zhao Gang.
With the development of the company, Xia Meng's job gradually changed to that of the company's executive general manager. The two were about to break up, and Yang Ye wanted to find a new political commissar.
Yang Ye’s films are all decided by himself, so naturally there is no need for an overly strong producer, so Xu Feng was chosen as the new producer.
In the original time and space, after Xu Feng got married and retired, she worked as a young mistress for several years. Feeling too bored, she opened a film company and became a producer.
She has worked brilliantly in this industry, and in 1998 she also won the "Most Outstanding Producer Award" at the Cannes Film Festival.
She grew bigger and bigger, and established an entertainment company in 2002, preparing to develop in an international and diversified direction.
If her husband hadn't died suddenly, she would have had to close the company and take over her husband's career. She might have developed into an entertainment tycoon.
So, letting Xu Feng become an actress is simply a waste of talent. Yang Ye plans to let her learn to be a producer first and then develop into a producer.
Yang Ye smiled and said: "If you don't know how, just learn slowly. You are a naturally smart person and you will definitely be able to do it well."
Xu Feng lay in Yang Ye's arms and said : "I don't think I'm smart. My mother always called me a stupid girl when I was a child."
Yang Ye said: "Director Hu Jinquan is a very picky person, but he is very satisfied with you. As an actor, you only filmed a few movies and became the Golden Horse Queen. Isn't this smart?"
Xu Feng said: " That’s because the master scolded me so much that I was afraid, so I had to practice hard in secret, hoping to get less scolded.”
“This is a sign of cleverness! Let me give you an example. What do you think of Guo Jinghe?” Huang Rong, who is smarter?"
"Huang Rong!"
"Then why can Guo Jing achieve great success in martial arts, but Huang Rong cannot advance to the top level?"
"This..."
"Leave aside the plug-in that Jin Yong gave to Guo Jing..."
"What is a plug-in?"
"Well, it's just an adventure, don't interrupt. Guo Jing is able to work hard, study hard, and has a firm belief that will not waver no matter what the interference is. This is true wisdom, while Huang Rong is just smart, which is to say a little clever.
Back to reality. When you entered the acting industry, you worked hard and achieved great results. In just a few years, you became the Golden Horse Best Actress. This shows that you have a firm belief and can persevere towards your goals. This is what you do. Really smart people.
Any smart person will still succeed even if he changes his field, so I am very optimistic about you. You will not only become an excellent producer, but also an excellent producer. "
This was the first time Xu Feng heard such words. She said: "Then I will definitely work hard! "
Yang Ye was very satisfied, kissed her on the face, and said: "Sister Meng has her own things to do. You are my wife. If you don't help me, who will?" Only by working together as husband and wife can we cut through the metal. "
"Husband...husband and wife? "Xu Feng suddenly stuttered a little.
"Yes, don't you want to be my wife? ”
"Think!"
"That's right!" Yang Ye suddenly took out a ring, put it on her finger, and said softly: "Call me husband!
Xu Feng did not Thinking of this, tears burst into my eyes instantly
“Old, husband! "She shouted, and a crystal tear fell down and fell on the ring.
The diamond and the teardrop complemented each other, giving off a bright light.
"What should they do?"
Xu Feng knew that Yang Ye had many women, and she and Hu Yinmeng had a threesome with Yang Ye.
She had never expected to marry Yang Ye, but now Yang Ye proposed to her, this...
She was very excited and very nervous.
Those girls are all excellent, younger than her, and more beautiful than her. Will Yang Ye give up them for himself?
Yang Ye sighed and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a greedy person. I love you and them very much. I don't want to give up on anyone.
I want you to be my wife, I also want them to be my wives, but polygamy is no longer allowed in Hong Kong.
So I have no choice but to marry you in Paris and marry other people elsewhere.
I... hope you can accept it and don’t hate me... okay?”
Xu Feng couldn’t help feeling sad after hearing this. It turned out that this was Yang Ye’s idea!
