Chapter 76 The Movie "The Promise"

Wuji Hotel

"Director Lu, there is a movie. I wonder if you are interested in investing in Martian Film and Television." Han Shanping finished talking about "Let the Bullets Fly", and then talked about another serious matter, "Your senior brother, directed by Director Chen Kaige, the Oriental Fantasy Epic Masterpiece Make Movie."

Chen Kaige sees the improvement of the mainland film market.

A movie that has always been buried in my heart.

Think it's time to take it out and wow everyone.

Find Han Shanping.

It requires an investment of [-] million.

If it was someone else, Han Shanping would directly ask the security guard to drive him out.

It's just director Chen Kaige who has filmed "Farewell My Concubine", so we need to talk about it.

It's just that the amount is really scary.

Even if Huaguo Film Group is rich, it doesn't open a bank.

Such a large investment is too risky.

The highest grossing domestic movie in the mainland is "Hero" with more than 2 million yuan.

The investment required for Chen Kaige's new movie exceeds the box office of "Hero" in the mainland.

Of course, Hero's investment is more than 2 million, but Hero's overseas box office is quite good. Not only did he not lose money, but he also made a lot of money.

Currently Chen Kaige is overseas, but his influence is not as good as that of Zhang Yingmou.

So Han Shanping is afraid of losing money. This loss can be hundreds of millions.

He planned to find Lu Chen.

I know that Lu Chen's family is not short of money.

Of course, Lu Chen himself is not short of money. The several works invested by Mars Film and Television have made a lot of money. It would be best if Martian Film and Television can share more than [-] million investment.

"President Han, let's have another drink." Lu Chen pretended not to hear.

Chen Kaige.

An oriental fantasy epic production.

The two join forces.

Isn't it "The Promise".

It seems that "The Promise" is really coming out ahead of schedule.

Fortunately, "Let the Bullets Fly" will be filmed at the beginning of the year, and it will definitely be released before "The Promise". If "The Promise" is put in front, it will definitely have an impact on the box office of "Let the Bullets Fly".

As for investing?

Throw a yarn?

The money earned through hard work in making movies was not for Chen Kaige to squander, to satisfy his unrestrained imagination that day.

"When Director Chen Kaige gets the script out, I'll show it to Director Lu for you to read." Han Shanping approached Lu Chen to share the risk, fearing that something might happen.

"Mr. Han, I'm sorry, I'll answer the phone first." Lu Chen was thinking about how to refuse when the phone rang, which was a relief.

I saw that it was my aunt calling.

Come to the side and continue.

Liu Ruyu told Lu Chen.

Jin Yong from Xiangjiang is coming to visit "The Legend of Condor Heroes".

Let Lu Chen fix a time and come over to accompany him when he finds time.

Kim Yong visited the class this time.

Mainly I want to see 'Little Dragon Girl'.

At the beginning, Liu Yifei played the role of "Wang Yuyan" in "Dragon Babu", which was deeply liked by Jin Yong. Jin Yong also publicly expressed his hope that "Little Dragon Girl" would play the role of "Little Dragon Girl" in "The Legend of Condor Heroes".

Now "The Legend of Condor Heroes" is really Liu Yifei playing the role of "Little Dragon Girl", Jin Yong is quite happy, and specifically proposed to visit the crew of "The Legend of Condor Heroes".

After answering the phone call, Lu Chen pretended to be drunk and put the matter aside, mainly because it was not easy to refuse. Both "A Family of Thieves" and "Let the Bullets Fly" needed the escort of Han Shanping Film Group.

……

"The Legend of Condor Heroes" crew

Lu Chen accompanied Jin Yong to the crew of "The Legend of Condor Heroes".

As a well-known martial arts novelist in Xiangjiang.

Come visit us.

Lu Chen must be by his side.

And today is also the day when "The Legend of Condor Heroes" is finished.

Scheduled for this day.

It is to save time.

Lu Chen, as the producer of "The Legend of Condor Heroes", now that it's finished, he must come over.

Then arrange Kim Yong's visit on this day, and do two things at once to improve efficiency.

After all, Lu Chen was still filming the movie "A Family of Thieves".

As for the current filming of "The Thieves Family", almost half of it has been filmed.

We must strive to finish filming all the scenes of "The Thieves" before the Chinese New Year.

After all, there is still a big project next year, and I have to shoot "Let the Bullets Fly".

"Director Lu!" The staff of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" cheered up immediately when they saw Lu Chen, and shouted respectfully one by one.

Most of the staff are employees of Mars Film and Television, and Lu Chen is everyone's big boss.

Someone also recognized Mr. Kim Yong.

One by one was very excited.

The filming of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" is an adaptation of the novel written by Jin Yong.

"Mr. Jin, sit down first, and wait until the filming of this scene is over." Lu Chen asked the staff to bring a chair.

As for the front.

Still filming.

It is also the last shot of "The Legend of Condor Heroes".

"Director Lu!" Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, and Liu Shishi came over with happy faces and surrounded Lu Chen. They hadn't seen Director Lu for a while, and they didn't know what Director Lu was busy with, so they didn't come to see everyone.

As for Liu Yifei, she also wanted to come.

But the last scene is the scene of 'Little Dragon Girl'.

I had no choice but to suppress my inner excitement and shoot the last shot first.

"Mr. Jin, this is Yang Mi, who played the role of Guo Xiang in "The Legend of Condor Heroes", and this is Zhao Liying, in it..." Lu Chen introduced.

This time in person.

Lu Chen also had a purpose.

I want Jin Yong to hand over the right to adapt the novel to Martian Film and Television in Mainland China.

The novels written by Jin Yong are regarded as the most adapted film and television works, and the adaptation rights granted by Jin Yong are quite different from the copyrights of other novels and film adaptations.

Other novels are generally exclusive, that is, you paid for it, and the film and television adaptation rights of this novel belong to you, and you can shoot it whenever you want.

However, there is a time limit for Jin Yong's novel film and television adaptation rights, usually about two years, and the work must be shot within two years. If the time limit is exceeded, the copyright will automatically expire, and it will be illegal to shoot again.

With this rule, Jin Yong’s novels are too popular. If you buy the film and television adaptation rights and don’t make them, then if you want to remake them later, you won’t be able to do so.

Of course, if you want the copyright to last for a long time, you can pay more, but usually you buy it for two years. Two years is definitely enough time for a TV series from project approval to filming.

"They're all pretty good girls." Jin Yong looked at the girls introduced by Lu Chen and praised them all. They are all beautiful. This is the female character in the novel, young, beautiful, and full of aura.

"Brother!" At this moment, Liu Yifei ran over quickly after taking the last shot.

"Slow down!" Lu Chen was afraid that Liu Yifei would fall. There is still her role in "The Thieves", but Liu Yifei doesn't know it yet, but Lu Chen will call her to come to the room tonight, and he has to tell her about it, night Talk about the script.

"Mr. Jin." Liu Yifei didn't expect that Mr. Jin also came, and immediately greeted him.

Met once before.

After "Dragon Babu" was launched, Mr. Jin came to the mainland and was interviewed together. Mr. Jin also praised that his role as "Wang Yuyan" was the most suitable for Wang Yuyan in the novel.

Jin Yong looked at Liu Yifei. At this time, Liu Yifei was still wearing a costume, just like the "Little Dragon Girl" who came out of a novel.

Seeing Jin Yong's constant praise, "This is the 'Little Dragon Girl', Director Lu, your choice of 'Little Dragon Girl' is very suitable for me."

"Mr. Jin, you said before that Liu Yifei is suitable to play 'Little Dragon Girl', and Mr. Jin is the author of the original novel. Of course, we have to respect your wishes." Lu Chen said so, so that he can win Jin Yong's other films in the future. High-quality novel copyright.

It will be different when the copyright is won, and you can let yourself go as you like.

"Director Lu, I'm really looking forward to what this version of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" will be on TV." Jin Yong was in a particularly good mood, and mainly Lu Chen's words satisfied Jin Yong.

As the original author of the novel, of course I hope that the adaptation of the novel into a film and television work can conform to the novel itself as much as possible. Thinking of the previously modified film and television works, Jin Yong was full of blood when he watched it.

"I will ask someone to arrange the post-production work of "The Legend of Condor Heroes", so that "The Legend of Condor Heroes" can meet the audience friends sooner." Lu Chen greeted the assistant outside and brought in the flowers.

Today, the crew of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" is wrapping up, and there is still a sense of ritual.

"Thank you, brother." Liu Yifei took the flowers and was quite happy.

"Go out to eat later, come to my room after dinner." After telling Liu Yifei, Lu Chen took flowers and gave them to Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, Liu Shishi and other actors.

It was the first time for these girls to film such a long-term scene without being taught by me. They had worked hard, so they had to be encouraged.

Of course, sometimes you have to spur.

Big sticks and sweet dates have to be alternated in order to cultivate Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, and Liu Shishi into talents.
