Chapter 143 Second marriage
After sorting out the plot structure of "Source Code", Shao Yingxiong began to think about the intention of the movie. In fact, a movie is the same as a novel. The intention is very important. "Hero" tells two words from beginning to end, faith. Whether it is Wuming's belief that he wants to assassinate Qin or the belief that the Qin King unified the world, they are all living for faith. "The Grandmaster" wants to say that he is alive. In this movie, Ip Man is alive and Gong Er is alive. In order to make himself live, Ip Man goes to Xiangjiang to teach boxing, and Gong Er kills Ma San. ()
What is the intention of "Source Code"?
persist in!
This is something Shao Yingxiong understood from the original film. In the face of failures again and again, all the hero does is just a little better than the previous eight minutes. This is a persistence. Anyone facing death can choose to persist. Can't this be said to be the intention of the whole movie?
Shao Yingxiong felt that this was what he realized from the movie. Of course, maybe the director didn't think so. Maybe the director wanted to use his own storytelling techniques to make a repetitive story into a product hanging on a high-tech shell. But what Shao Yingxiong could feel from this movie was his business.
With the idea and the script framework, Shao Yingxiong began to sort out the plot constantly. The whole story is now left with only writing it in a word document and printing it into a script. At this moment, Wei Jiahui called.
"Boss Shao, do you have time?"
When Shao Yingxiong heard Wei Jiahui's words, he joked: "The New Year is in two days left, why hasn't Brother Hui been on holiday yet?"
"I can't take a fake. I found that I couldn't find the script to shoot after filming "The Embroidered Spring Knife". "Wei Jiahui laughed awkwardly: "Boss Shao, give me your script of "Go to the End/Wind's Way" to me? I don't want much investment..."
"Brother Hui, that book. It seems that it can't be available in the mainland."
"I know, I want to counterattack the Xiangjiang Market."
Wei Jiahui's words suddenly reminded Shao Yingxiong of how Wei Jiahui looked in history. He always wanted to let Xiangjiang take a new path. In fact, there are many people who work hard for the Xiangjiang film market like him, but they all became cannon fodder in the great era.
"How are you going to take a picture?"
"Don't change a word." Wei Jiahui said confidently: "That's right, I plan to let Wu Qizu play the male lead and Ren Dahua play the anti-number number one."
The movie "Going to the End" was released in South Korea in 2014, with the number of viewers reaching about 3.448,500. It is a film that has caused a craze for viewing. It must be admitted that there are people here who support their own domestic products, but the quality of the whole movie is still very good, except for the last scene, which is a bit brain-stolen. The rest is reasonable.
"Change the end. A powerful person will not fight hard alone when he finds his opponent. I have no objection to the rest. How much do you plan to use?"
Wei Jiahui felt relieved and said, "It doesn't take much money. Except for the two male protagonists, I plan to use the old actors on TVB, which are cheap and easy to use. I want 20 million yuan. In addition, I hope the company will prepare a reserve of 5 million yuan for me."
"good."
After Shao Yingxiong agreed, he held the microphone and said, "You hand over the fund application and video budget to the company, and after the annual leave, I will approve it when I go back."
Just when the phone hung up, Gao Yuanyuan's voice sounded outside the door: "Brother-in-law, why are you here?"
"I can't do it if I don't come. Who made my brother-in-law become Huayi's top leader?" Feng Xiaogang joked: "My brother and sister, I'm still having a meal, okay?"
Gao Yuanyuan made Feng Xiaogang laugh, and tilted her head and said, "It's definitely not possible. If your brother-in-law, who dares to keep you if you don't say anything, will he dare to keep you?"
"No!" Feng Xiaogang was confident: "I don't know what he is like? Don't look at him who is five or six outside, returning to this acre of three-point land, then your brother and sister have the final say."
Gao Yuanyuan quickly let Feng Xiaogang in from the door, and then said politely: "Brother-in-law, sit down, I'll go and call him."
"Brother-in-law, why are you here during the New Year? I also said to see you after the New Year."
When Shao Yingxiong walked downstairs, Feng Xiaogang was used to making trouble and said, "This sounds false. When you went there before the New Year, I didn't let go and leave? That's busy, keeping you for a meal is like giving you sweat medicine, and you can't even hold you back."
"Brother-in-law, why are you picking everything?" Shao Yingxiong walked over with a smile, and the servant just happened to send the tea.
The two of them smiled and were not angry at each other. As they chatted, Shao Yingxiong began to point the topic: "Brother-in-law, have you been opening a company with Zhang Guoli?"
"Don't mention it, I'm so tired."
Feng Xiaogang leaned on the sofa as if he was tired and anxious: "I can't even understand why you are this boss. Then when I was the boss, I felt annoyed when I saw the secretary. She was taking a few documents that made me curse and wanted to scold me when I saw it. I couldn't live a life. Xiao Shao, when I left, I mentioned to Zhongjun that as long as I didn't want to be a boss, I wouldn't go to Huayi no matter how high the price the other companies gave me, I would stay back to Huayi. Before I came to your house, I went to find two brothers Wang. They were just talking about it. What do you think?"
"I think?" Shao Yingxiong pondered for a long time and said, "Brother-in-law, I think I should hire a red sedan chair and find eight sedan chairmen to carry you back. Don't think that this is a second marriage, it will be a huge momentum."
"roll."
Feng Xiaogang smiled and scolded: "Xiao Shao, I'm here to come back this time to ask the company to spend a lot of money to make a movie for me that I don't know if I can make money."
"Not a comedy?" Shao Yingxiong tried to ask. After all, Feng Xiaogang's filming trajectory was already chaotic, and Shao Yingxiong really couldn't figure out what he wanted to shoot.
"no."
When Shao Yingxiong heard these two words, he smiled on his face. As far as he knew, there were only three movies that Feng Xiaogang was not a comedy, namely "Assembly", "Tangshan Earthquake" and "1942". He was willing to invest money in these three movies because some movies did not exist for making money, such as "Tao Sister" filmed by Andy Lau.
Before filming "Sister Tao", Andy Lau only said, "It's been a long time since I tried enough money to make a movie." Andy Lau's investment was made. When investing in this drama, Andy Lau not only did not intend to make money, but also did not think about winning the award. The only thing he thought was to purify his acting skills.
Feng Xiaogang didn't keep it a secret and responded directly: "I bought the copyright of "Sece".
"Yang Jinyuan's novel?" Shao Yingxiong instantly thought of "Assembly" and Feng Xiaogang is back on track!
Then next year's box office market, Huayi will be filled with Huayi's films from small to large, from Hong Kong and Taiwan to the mainland!
"Ocean Paradise" starring Wen Zhang and Li Lianjie can move countless audiences; "The Slim Gentleman" can at least make the audience smile; "Crazy Racing" can also catch up with this craze to consolidate Ning Hao's position; "Source Code" is almost aiming to invest in high box office; "Assembly" is just a news broadcast to help promote it, which can make the film gain a lot of attention; and "Go to the End" specially created for the Xiangjiang Market and Baodao Market...
Shao Yingxiong did not say that Huayi had fully occupied the box office of the domestic market, but Huayi's logo could also appear in all periods!
"The Gentleman" and "Crazy Racing" during the summer season; "Ocean Paradise" in September touched China; "Source Code" during the prime time of the National Day; "Assembly" during the New Year season, he didn't believe that Orange Sky could stand this series of attacks!
Even in 2007, Orange Sky had two dramas: "Love Call Transfer" and "The Declaration of the Fame".
"Brother-in-law, how much do you plan to invest?" Shao Yingxiong asked again. He must make himself feel confident, otherwise with the investment in the TV drama department next year, Huayi may have problems in the capital chain.
"One hundred million!"
When Feng Xiaogang looked up at Shao Yingxiong, he did not wait for Shao Yingxiong's answer. With the words Feng Xiaogang, he wanted to find 100 million yuan in the investment market to make a movie, even if there was no script in his hand, he would have someone to invest in. The reason why he looked at Shao Yingxiong was completely out of respect.
Shao Yingxiong did not agree immediately. He had to think about it first. If there was a problem with the funds, even if one or two small productions were killed, he would have to put "Assembly" on it.
"The Gentleman" has not much money to spend except for Sun Honglei and Fan Feiqi. It can be paid for 25 million yuan. Ning Hao didn't ask for much money in "Crazy Racing" and came back from Quentin. He only asked for 24 million yuan. The post-production of "Source Code" will make a little bleeding, and there is no big investment. After the whole film is over, 40 million is enough... Then, Huayi's investment in the film market next year will be nearly 200 million yuan, which is not counting "Borrowing Gun" and "Palace" in the TV series market.
Huayike rarely invests so much investment in the same year. This time, Shao Yingxiong laughed.
"Brother-in-law, I have read the novel "Secretary". If this movie is made in detail, I think 100 million is not enough. The company will provide you with an additional 20 million."
"These 20 million are because I am afraid that my brother-in-law will need to use the troops to shoot at that time and cannot connect. The current troops and I will not be the same price when filming "Bright Sword"."
When Shao Yingxiong said this, Gao Yuanyuan started serving dishes out with people in the kitchen. Shao Yingxiong went to Feng Xiaogang's house for dinner. The people prepared everything according to the taste of the guests. Although Feng Xiaogang only cooked two vegetarian dishes for him. This time, Feng Xiaogang went to Shao Yingxiong's house and Gao Yuanyuan opened a full vegetarian table.
"Let's have a meal and chat." Gao Yuanyuan shouted at Shao Yingxiong, and Feng Xiaogang and the others began to walk towards the dining table. Next year will definitely be a very glorious year for Huayi.
Bee, bee, bee.
As soon as Shao Yingxiong and Feng Xiaogang sat down, the phone in the study upstairs rang. From the sound, it was Shao Yingxiong's cell phone.
"Brother-in-law, you sit first, I'll answer the phone." After saying that, Shao Yingxiong turned around and walked upstairs. When he saw that it was Wang Zhongjun's phone number, he picked up the phone to answer the channel: "Mr. Wang."
Wang Zhongjun was not polite, and asked anxiously: "Xiao Shao, Lao Feng just left me, and he said he wanted to go back to Huayi, you..."
"Oh, my brother-in-law is here with me." Shao Yingxiong responded.
"Then do you think we have to play in these two days?"
"Just tomorrow."
Shao Yingxiong answered like this.
Chapter completed!
