I’m Almost Losing to a Muggle

To talk about the hottest Hong Kong film directors two thousand years later, Mai Zhaohui and Zhuang Wenqi must be mentioned.

There is a saying in the industry that Maizhuang products must be fine products.

They are by no means a vain name. The series of "Infernal Affairs", "Initial D", and "Eavesdropping" are all very popular and popular.

It can be said that in the era of Hougang films, the Maizhuang group carried half of the sky in Xiangjiang movies.

This time, Zhuang Wenqi shot the film "No Two". If it weren't for too many big scenes, which made the investment too high, and because of the sensitive subject matter in the early stage, it took three years to revise and review. In fact, he has no worries about finding someone to invest. of.

Producer Huang Bin persuaded him to change, but he didn't change it, making it very unpleasant.

However, it is not the first time that the two have cooperated. After the last in-depth discussion, they both made up their minds to find a real supporter, and not to point out the producer.

Originally, Guangjin Pictures had ideas, and they have cooperated many times before.

But the problem lies in the hope that Zhuang Wenqi will compromise more.

Just when Zhuang Wenqi was hesitating whether to give Guangjin a little more or less face, they contacted Lin Dong through Fage, a wonderful investment circle who didn't care about anything after investing.

Kleist released an animated film called "Rock Huskies", which lost 300 million yuan, and did not see him raise the knife to cut the director.

"For big scenes, it can be appropriate..."

"No, there is no need to chop. I hope that the big scene will not be too small, otherwise it will not look good." Lin Dong hurriedly stopped him.

A big scene, expensive can cost millions.

You must not compromise with me.

No need!

"In order to better pass the trial..."

"This is not something I considered, Director Zhuang, Teacher Huang, you are actually more professional than me. Although I also directed a movie, it was done with the support of several seniors. You should be better than me. It is clearer that if a good film wants to achieve a higher degree of completion, it cannot be compromised anywhere."

He said that you were more professional, but in fact, Lin Dong used the example of "New Shushan" to tell them.

I succeeded because I did not compromise on film quality.

This is really not a flicker, because everyone did not compromise, and finally cut out five versions.

Seeing several people breathed a sigh of relief, Lin Dong felt he had to say a few more words.

"When I was in school, my teacher and I talked about the interdependence of commercial films and literary films. Movies are an art, and what can represent this aspect is actually literary films. Commercial films cannot represent it. My "New Shushan" "Nor does it mean that only by giving the core of film art can the problem of the survival of the film market be fundamentally solved..."

Usually, I am used to flicking, and I can fool the other side by flicking professionals.

Needless to say, Zhuang Wenqi and Huang Bin are the people behind the scenes of the movie, and they fundamentally affect the production of the movie. For people like Fa Ge and Guo Tianwang, Lin Dong's words seem to be even more confusing.

They are tools.

It is a tool that serves the director's performance techniques.

Whether a play is good or not has nothing to do with them.

The script was written by the people behind the scenes. The actors are the result of various struggles among the casting director, director, screenwriter, and producer. When the film is actually filmed, the director is the one who says it.

In the end, why, the results of bad movies are counted on them.

If these behind-the-scenes can really do what Lin Dong said, pay attention to the harmonious coexistence between business and literature, pay attention to the plot logic and cultural connotation, they will not be bad films one after another.

The actors really cannot be blamed on bad films.

If you have to say that the actor does not perform well, you can stop him from acting.

Except for those mixed actors who said 1234 to the camera, most of the actors actually played their own normal level.

"We try our best. I can only say that I will try my best." Director Zhuang Wenqi was so moved.

He felt that he had encountered the best Bole in his life.

Guangjin Films is already very good in the industry, but after using Kleist, who still remembers Guangjin.

"In that case, let's discuss the funds needed for this movie." Lin Dong accepts it as soon as he sees it. He is afraid to give advice on specific shooting. In case he is really talented, one or two sentences What to do if you make a hit.

What if he makes Zhuang Wenqi an epiphany with a certain sentence and directly upgrades to a commercial film director.

"That's the case, we will save as much as possible..." Huang Bin was shocked, took the lead in packing tickets, and explained the overall cost style of the crew.

In the early days, Hong Kong film directors went northward to enter the mainland and were favored by a group of coal bosses.

When I came across the sand sculptures of people who were stupid and only thinking about the script with female stars, those Hong Kong film directors started to act hard. An umbrella was several thousand yuan, and a hat was several thousand yuan, all from that time.

Ten years have passed~www.NovelMTL.com~ Many capitals still have a very bad impression of Hong Kong film directors.

"Teacher Huang, it's not necessary. The money that should be spent must be spent, especially those who can't be wronged for real work. I least like the way to save money by searching from the bottom of the people." Lin Dong quickly dispelled their thoughts.

Their so-called provinces are not necessarily as provinces in filming as he wishes.

They also don't want to save money on the share they take.

then what should we do?

Then reduce the salary of low-level cast members.

Just give it so much. A bunch of people in the film and television base are waiting to eat.

"According to Yuyu's algorithm, this movie might cost 300 million yuan." Huang Bin observed Lin Dong's face and saw that there was nothing unusual about him, before continuing, "If you save a little bit, two hundred and sixty-seven are the same. "

"Then count as 300 million, how much funds have been raised so far?" Lin Dong didn't want to care about the trivial matters of 30 to 20 million. He just wanted to lose a single order and get some initial funds back.

"Guangjin has some intentions, if Kleist is willing to invest, they can get 100 million." Huang Bin said.

"Yes, it's pretty good. Let's spend 200 million yuan, accounting for 60% of the share, and let the remaining 10% be handled flexibly by a few people." It means that you can divide it.

After experiencing the battle of Xinshu Mountain, Lin Dong has realized.

Don't expect to be a fat man in one breath. The best way is to bring in some other capital to help him take risks.

Anyway, as long as you lose, you can lose a little bit.

Several people were relieved.

Their original plan was to ask for 5%, and the main director would have to get at least 5% of the box office share. With Fa Ge and Zhuang Wenqi, 5% is definitely not much.

I didn't expect President Lin to be so generous, he gave 10% without waiting for them to speak.
