Chapter 5 Boot
The crew really has no money...
Settings, props, art, photography, staff meals, accommodation, actors’ pay...
Once the computer is turned on, you are burning money. No matter how much you save, the daily expenses will be at least tens of thousands of yuan.
Chongqing is actually not suitable for filming.
Yes, Chongqing has its own style, mountain city, fog city, magic track, hot pot, these are all very good for movies...
However, Chongqing's film and television industry is not developed, and most of them are still in the graphic design and promotional film stage. If the filming of a movie is not supported by local forces, the composition cost will increase a lot.
The executive producer is in charge of the accounting. He knows how much money there is in the account, so with the idea that it is a little bit easier, Wang Xun and three people were arranged to live in a room.
Generally, the supporting roles live in single rooms in crews, and no matter how bad it is, the two of them are, Lu Xiaoran used to film, and basically lived in single rooms!
Still no money...
Open a single room?
It costs more than one thousand yuan in a week, where does the money come from?
The executive producer of "Stone" is Zhou Lin, who is also a life producer and actor management...
He is a teacher at Beijing Electric...
He is also a good friend of Ning Hao. It is said that the character Bao Shihong was created based on him.
Of course, the main source of funds for the crew of "Stone" is Liu Dehua's Yingyi Entertainment, so there is also a producer from Hong Kong named Zheng Bixue. However, she does not participate in the management of actors, and at most she checks the accounts and serves as the producer...
Zhou Lin suggested: "This way, can you live in the same house with the photographer?"
“…Does he have a dog?”
"Not raised!"
"That's fine!"
Then Wang Xun packed up his things and moved out of the four-person room...
"You two respect others!"
“…know, know…”
Lu Xiaoran looked at Huang Bo, and the two looked at each other and smiled...
Uh, a little bitter.
They are all young actors!
As you can see from the pay, the two of them received "Crazy Stone" and the pay was 8,000 yuan...
The highest paid crew of "Stone" is of course the actor Lian Jing, who plays Mike, who pays 80,000 yuan.
80,000 yuan is already a friendly price. Hong Kong actors are very expensive these days. Because he is Liu Dehua's friend, he received a friendly price!
Then there is Guo Tao, about 50,000 yuan, and then Liu Hua, Wang Xun, 20,000 yuan. The remaining group of people basically ranged from 8,000 to 15,000 yuan...
Hou Shu, who plays Jingjing, has a salary of 12,000 yuan...
To be honest, this amount of pay is not very high. Lu Xiaoran now takes on a TV series and the pay is 8,000 yuan per episode!
...
Lu Xiaoran, born in 1983, is a student of the 2001 grade of Beijing Film Academy.
I live in Xi'an and have been pretty since I was a child. Then, after being fooled by my classmates, I went to the film school to take the exam...
Unsuccessful in the first year...
I stayed in Beijing for a year and studied for the basics of performance, paid about 200,000 yuan in training fees, and then successfully passed the Beijing Film Academy...
That training class was organized by a teacher from Beijing Electric Power!
During his time at school, there was nothing special. There were so many handsome guys and beautiful girls like Nordic...
Lu Xiaoran may have been the schoolmaster in high school, but when he arrived at Beijing Film Academy...
It can only be considered average.
At first, I was a little disappointed, but later, the auxiliary device came, and then he studied with peace of mind...
Husky told him that the golden age of the mainland entertainment industry began in 2009, and there is no need to show off now. Take your time and lay a solid foundation.
Well, according to their teacher and Liu Chang's words, Lu Xiaoran is a kind of student who is very obedient and will do whatever the teacher says.
For example, the teacher said, "Apart from Spielberg, only Brother Chen Kai and Zhang Yimou can go out to film the drama." He was so honest that he stayed in school for three years...
Even if there is a huge opportunity, he is too lazy to go...
The basic skills are very solid...
I started to go to the crew in the second semester of my junior year, and I started to perform various supporting roles...
Generally, actors who are professionals do not need to play supporting roles anymore, but start with small supporting roles.
During this period, many companies fell in love with him and wanted to sign him, but they all refused what the Husky told him. After 2009, the studio became mainstream and there was no need to sign any agent!
That's it, but at this stage, the resources are relatively concentrated, including Beijing Circle, Northwest Circle, Hong Kong Circle...
After all, there are worlds where there are people.
Under this premise, there are certain barriers to communication between people in the film and television industry...
Directors are all busy with their own personal actors and opera troupes, and rarely use new actors. It is difficult for Lu Xiaoran to get into a single-handed role like this!
Sometimes I was a little anxious, but the Husky said 'Wait a little longer!'
Then I waited for "Crazy Stone"...
In fact, the Husky wanted him to take the trick directly, but unfortunately, "Survival Migrant Workers" and "Sleeping on Fire and Tasting Gallbladder" do not require any newcomers...
"Young Yang Family Generals" is just to make pocket money!
Husky is not omnipotent, he can only provide a general idea. He can do nothing in every play!
Fortunately, "The Young Yang Family General" has become a waste of time, otherwise, I would have to miss "Crazy Stone"!
...
Two cars were sent to the crew.
Lu Xiaoran was responsible for contacting each other, chatting for a few words, and preparing to give money. The other party waved his hand: "No need, you are Zhang Jing's brother, and I am my brother. Just think I sponsor you to film!"
"You are so kind...why would I ask the director to put your name on the subtitles?"
"subtitle?"
Lu Xiaoran explained: "Yes, thank you list. The filming of "Dream of Red Mansions" was sponsored by local entrepreneur Chen Zengyou, which made this famous work appear! You are also our sponsor!"
This is what I said, and I feel it is a bit inappropriate...
Of course, Chen Zengyou is the sponsor of "Dream of Red Mansions", but he did not receive any dividends except the principal...
In those years, the central mother was a bit domineering.
"...Then I thank you!"
"fine…"
After seeing off the 'sponsor', Zhou Lin looked at the two big objects and was overjoyed: "You have a good idea!"
Getting two cars is very simple, the most important thing is to confiscate the money...
"I, Lu Xiaoran, came out to have sex with three things: loyalty, ruthlessness, and many brothers!"
Zhou Lin rolled his eyes: "...You should watch less Hong Kong entertainment movies!"
Huang Bo interrupted: "...Teacher Zhou, we have all the objects, can we take pictures, right?"
"The computer will be turned on tomorrow morning, are you ready?"
"It's true!"
"Let's go and meet the other actors on the crew."
Lu Xiaoran asked, "...I'm going to meet the actors of the local drama troupe?"
"Well, you guys get familiar with each other."
Lu Xiaoran nodded: "...I should be familiar with it. I don't even know who my father is!"
Zhou Lin hesitated for a moment and told the truth: "...I am a local from Chongqing, and he is a supporting actor. Don't underestimate him. He was really the factory director before, and it fits his personality!"
Before Lu Xiaoran could speak, Huang Bo was a little surprised: "Ah? You are the one who plays a supporting role?"
