Chapter 50 Fan Binbin recommends himself
Zhang Chen was revising the plot, but was interrupted by a phone call.
Looking at the caller ID, it was Fan Binbin.
It's a bit strange, didn't they just break up?
"Miss Fan?"
"Huh?"
"Uh, Teacher Binbin..."
The tone on the other end of the phone changed, "Director Zhang, why do you always forget?"
< br>"Well, be sure to pay attention next time. Teacher Binbin is looking for me?"
The tone on the other end of the phone was brisk: "Director Zhang, that's it. I guess Che Xiao Xiying must be interested in your new film. It’s a big influence. I’m making this call to recommend myself. If Director Zhang doesn’t mind, you can consider me.”
"Huh? Teacher Binbin is willing to star in "Dark Invasion 2"?"
"Of course, I am looking forward to working with Director Zhang."
"But, my movies are all low-budget , I’m afraid the remuneration won’t meet your expectations.”
“We can negotiate everything about it.”
“Well, I’ll think about it.”
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Chen was a little confused.
Fan Binbin, Fan Binbin, who has been on the ice for four times, actually lowered his status and wanted to star in his movie.
Although his debut film "Dark Invasion" did well at the box office, it is only one film after all. A new director is not only sharp, he is also new.
Fan Binbin has been a famous actor for a long time. Strictly speaking, her status is higher than Zhang Chen.
Just like Gong Li and Feng Xiaogang. Although Feng Xiaogang is one of the three major directors in China, Gong Li is obviously more senior and has greater achievements.
If Gong Li announces that she will join Feng Xiaogang's new film, it will undoubtedly be an affirmation of Feng Xiaogang, and Feng Xiaogang's status in people's minds will rise accordingly.
Now that Fan Binbin is willing to join Zhang Chen’s new film, it will definitely be a huge boost to Zhang Chen’s reputation.
In the private room of the hotel, Wang Jinghua saw Fan Binbin hang up the phone and immediately asked: "Has he agreed?"
"Not yet, he said he would consider it."
"Then I’ll call you again to add more money.”
Then Zhang Chen's phone rang again, this time it was Wang Jinghua.
"Director Zhang, I thought about it on the way back. I wonder if Director Zhang is willing to cooperate with our Binbin. In terms of appearance, Binbin is just better than Che Xiao. In terms of fame, she is the fourth Dan Shuangbing is one of the top female artists in China. In terms of acting skills, our Binbin is not bad either. The role of Wu Yue in "Cell Phone" has been shortlisted for the Best Actress in this year's Hundred Flowers Awards. She has joined your new film , it will be a huge improvement to the quality and reputation of the film..."
"What, you are worried about the salary issue, you don't need to consider this, Binbin just wants to cooperate with an excellent director like you Well, it’s easy to talk about the remuneration and so on. Just give it to me. Okay, you can think about it again. I’ll wait for your news.” .
Zhang Chen was quite surprised. He did not expect that Fan Binbin wanted to cooperate with him so strongly that he actually called him twice in a row. Although Wang Jinghua who called later deliberately pretended not to know, she knew it even with her buttocks. How is it possible.
But that's a good thing.
Fan Binbin, working with her will bring a lot of benefits to Zhang Chen.
But how to cooperate requires careful consideration.
……
Beijing, Xiaotangshan Film and Television Base
Most of the story of "A World Without Thieves" takes place on a train, and it is impossible for the railway to allocate a train specifically for filming.
So, the crew of "A World Without Thieves" rented an 8,000-square-meter studio in Xiaotangshan, Beijing, and built a train "out of nothing" in the studio.
The train is about 40 meters long and divided into four carriages: soft sleeper, hard sleeper, dining car, and hard seat. Most of the scenes in "A World Without Thieves" are completed in these four carriages.
At night, in the hotel where the crew was staying
The sound of running water came from the bathroom. It was Xu Fan taking a shower.
"A World Without Thieves" is a blockbuster, and the shooting period is at least three months. What if the director needs it in the meantime, so as the director's lover, Xu Fan is with the team.
Another reason is that the heroine of this film, Liu Milk Tea, is not a law-abiding person. Recently, Chen Hong, one of the members of the director’s wife team, was almost poached, so the other members of the wife team are very concerned about this. My husband, the director, watched closely.
While his wife was taking a shower, Feng Xiaogang turned on the TV out of boredom, wanting to watch the news to pass the time.
Then I saw reports about the box office of "Dark Invasion".
The cost was 2 million, it was released for 14 days, and the box office was 63.1 million. The key point is that Zhang Chen also said that if it weren't for the sniper attack in "House of Flying Daggers", the box office might have been even higher.
Higher? Are you still thinking about breaking 100 million?
Feng Xiaogang was stimulated.
Originally, he was the top brother in the domestic movie box office.
In the past, Zhang Yimou was famous, but that was because he won many awards. In terms of box office and figuring out the audience's preferences, he, Feng Xiaogang, was the most powerful.
Then "Hero" came out, which made him very embarrassed.
With a box office record of 250 million yuan, Feng Xiaogang is self-aware that it is impossible to surpass this record, but if he works hard, he should still be able to enter the 100 million yuan club.
But before "A World Without Thieves" was released, another "Dark Invasion" appeared out of nowhere and took in 60 million at the box office.
The key is, this is still a commercial movie.
Feng Xiaogang felt that his status was about to be lost.
Why do cats and dogs jump on your head to poop?
No, we can't just sit back and wait for death...
Then the crew of "A World Without Thieves" received an urgent notice from the assistant director - to work overtime tonight for the show.
All the actors and behind-the-scenes staff looked at each other. It was already 11 o'clock in the evening. Are you working overtime at short notice?
But the order was given by Feng Xiaogang himself. Even though they were puzzled, they could only execute it.
A huge crowd walked out of the hotel, got in the car, and headed towards Xiaotangshan Studio.
Xu Fan, who had just finished taking a bath and was wearing a pair of voluptuous pajamas, saw Feng Xiaogang who was holding something and was about to leave.
"Xiaogang, what's going on? Didn't you say you were going to make some breakthroughs tonight? I'm ready. Where are you going?"
Feng Xiaogang waved his hand: " I’m not in the mood anymore. I have to work overtime for the show. You can go to bed by yourself.”
……
Zhang Chen didn't know that his casual interview would make the married life of Director Feng and his wife disharmonious, but it had nothing to do with Zhang Chen. He was sleeping when he was woken up by a phone ringing.
I glanced at the caller ID irritably. It was Cao Bingkun. He answered the call angrily: "If there is no legitimate reason, you will be dead. When the time comes, your tombstone will say, Died Mr. Zhang is angry when he wakes up..."
"Hahaha, Chenzi, I will admit it even if I am killed. I just want to ask, is Fan Binbin good-looking?"
"Huh? ”
“Still pretending? Didn’t you have dinner with Fan Binbin last night?”
"We had dinner together, but... hmm? How did you know? Fake, Lao Cao, you won't follow me, will you?"
"I followed you, and it was caught by the media. It's already on the news."
"I'm holding it~~"
"Hahaha, brother, I'm just calling you out of curiosity. Tell me secretly, did you have anything like that tonight?"< br>
"Then what? Then you big-headed idiot, I came with my manager Wang Jinghua, what else do you want from me?"
"Don't lie to me, there are only two of you in the photo."
"I swear to God, I won't grow up if I lie to you~"
"I'll rub it, are you so cruel, okay? , but why didn't you go back to the dormitory?"
"Will you harass me when I go back? It's not like you haven't been here before when I went back."
Since he became famous, The director of the hotel reserved a room, but the reporters were so annoyed that they often went to school to look for him, which annoyed him so much.
"Oh, that's it. I thought you had succeeded. Didn't you say she was very naughty or something? I remember someone in Tianya broke the news. From the recorder to the director, the entire crew was all so naughty..."
"Please, please use your brain. Sleeping with the director can still be considered an unspoken rule. Forging a good relationship or something like that? What's the use of sleeping with the manager? Can the manager help her move the props? They are all competitors. It's just a smear campaign..."
"Okay, okay, then I'll hang up and you can go back to sleep, um, are you really okay?"
"Get out~"
Zhang Chen hung up the phone angrily. At this time, Zhang Chen had lost all sleep and simply turned on the computer to check the news.
