Chapter 200 Make another movie [two-in-one]

Hengdian, Guomao Tower Hotel.

This is the temporary residence prepared by the crew of "The King of Kung Fu" for all the actors. The Guomao Building is definitely one of the best in Hengdian. In this regard, the crew is very generous with the treatment of a large-scale Sino-US co-production.

Moreover, it is very close to the studio of Hengdian Film and Television City, so it is very convenient for actors to go to work. Well, on the set of "The King of Kung Fu", they are not called to work but can only be called to work.

It was late at night, and the streets around the hotel were silent. The street lights were dim and the shadows of the trees were dancing. Looking through the dim moonlight, a slender girl sat vaguely by a window on the fifth floor of the hotel.

Liu Yifei had insomnia again today. She hugged her legs, rested her chin on her knees, tilted her head, and stared blankly at the night outside the window.

A pair of smooth jade legs reflected the bright moonlight, but unfortunately no one appreciated them.

This scene is a bit melancholy.

There are only two days left before the reply deadline given by director Minkoff. Since the last time Liu's mother called Mr. Wang, until now, there has still been no reply from Huayi, even if it is not good news.

Huayi's approach is actually easy to guess. They will most likely not care about such a matter. Instead, they hope to use this matter to better understand the mother and daughter, so as to facilitate the subsequent signing of Liu Yifei's management contract.

Liu Yifei's life was indeed not very good these past five days. She was pretentious and the quality of her sleep was very poor every day.

Although Liu’s mother analyzed it for her.

In a big-budget co-production like "The King of Kung Fu", the various relationships are very complicated. Even the director Minkoff will never be able to cover the sky with one hand. No one can force it if he doesn't want to.

For such a widely watched project, the heroine is definitely not chosen casually, but once it is decided, it is impossible to change the role easily because of a trivial matter, otherwise, there will be a huge public opinion storm.

In the industry, even if I am more affected as an actor, they cannot be completely untouched, so they will not change roles unless absolutely necessary.

Liu Xiaoli told her to relax and not be afraid.

But Liu Yifei is different from before. She has grown up and learned to think independently.

Although my mother is right, even if she doesn't change roles, there are other ways to disgust herself. She will definitely slander herself for acting like a big star, or drastically cut her own scenes.

Being in the entertainment industry, even though Liu Yifei has always been well protected by Liu's mother, she is not unfamiliar with the dirty things in the industry and has heard about it to some extent.

She already has some regrets about taking on this film, but the contract has been signed and she has no regrets now.

Suddenly, Liu Yifei noticed an off-road vehicle approaching in the distance. It came to the hotel entrance, turned a corner and rushed into the hotel parking lot.

After the car stopped, two figures immediately walked out and staggered toward the hotel door.

One of the figures looked inexplicably familiar, but it was too far away and it was still late at night, so it was impossible to see clearly.

"Mother Diurei, I am the best photographer at this year's Academy Awards, not a taxi guy!"

"We're all here, stop inking."

Sun Yi didn't even look at him, he just stretched his arms and stamped his legs.

He was exhausted this night.

The two set off from Shangri-La in the morning and went straight to the nearest Diqing Airport. After checking the place, they found that there was no direct flight to the nearest airport. The fastest flight was also to Yiwu, which required a transfer.

I had no choice but to choose this option because I was short on time. After getting off the plane after an 8-hour flight, I rented a car at the airport and drove directly to Hengdian according to the navigation.

Another 2 hours passed before we finally arrived.

Coincidentally, the hotel recommended on the navigation is where Liu Yifei and the crew of "The King of Kung Fu" stayed.

In fact, it's normal. The current navigation can only provide some well-known places. Hengdian is not big and there are only one or two well-known hotels. The probability of staying together is quite high.

The two of them each found a standard room. After entering the room, they basically did nothing and fell asleep directly.

The next evening.

"Brother Wang, I really need to trouble you this time."

"No need to be so polite. It's also Director Han who values ​​you. He just flew from the capital in the morning. He just finished the meeting and has a meeting in the evening. The rest time will be given to you. Before I have never met anyone who is treated like this."

Sun Yi sighed secretly, feeling slightly uneasy.

"Oh, look at me, I'm delaying the leader's rest."

"Hey, who is making you anxious?"

"I can't help it, Brother Wang. The whole crew is waiting there. It's about 10,000+ a day. After all, she is my senior sister. She can't bear to look at me."

"Indeed, the current film and television environment is still very difficult for me. It's not easy."

The two of them walked while talking, and stopped at the door of a room.

Wang Bo raised his hand and patted Sun Yi on the shoulder, then knocked twice on the door.

"Director Han, Director Sun Yi is here."

"Let him in."

Wang Bo bowed and pushed the door open, gave Sun Yi a signal, and then closed the door.

Han Sanping's room was a suite. At this time, he was sitting on the single sofa in the living room with great dignity, holding a thermos flask in his hand, blowing the hot air with his head down, and then took a sip.

"Hello, Director Han."

"Well, here you go, sit down."

Han Sanping put down the thermos bottle and looked up, and a smile appeared on his majestic face.

"What are you playing? Your head is shaved, are you a monk?"

"Oh, I made the leader laugh. The role given by Senior Sister Yu is that of a monk. She is quite demanding. After all, she has to shave her hair. She said wearing a headgear is unnatural."

"Ha, that girl from the Yu family is indeed very serious about movies."

"you do not say."

Han Sanping adjusted his sitting posture with a smile, looking more casual.

"If I remember correctly, this is the first time I've met you alone."

"The leader has a good memory. This is indeed the first time. I have met you before, but it was always with many people."

"Um, oh, by the way, congratulations on winning the Palme d'Or for Best Short Film at Cannes."

Sun Yidun was flattered to receive a congratulation from Han Sanping.

He knew the status of the person in front of him in the Chinese film and television industry. To describe him as "the leader of the martial arts world" in Jianghu terms, it was probably true.

"Thank you for the praise from the leader, it is all yours"

Han Sanping laughed and cursed, waving his hand to interrupt Sun Yi's words.

"Stop it, stop flattering me. Do you still want to say that you are under my correct leadership? Stop doing this. Where did you learn these twists and turns at such a young age?"

When Sun Yi heard this, he pursed his lips and smiled in embarrassment.

Damn it, the clichés I used to report to leaders in my previous life were so silly.

As soon as you say the four words "Thank you to the leader", the rest of the words will be uncontrollable and you will jump out.

However, Han Sanping said no, but his body was very urban, and the smile on his face became stronger.

"Okay, let's talk about what you want from me this time."

"right."

Sun Yi introduced the current filming situation of the "Love Is Afterlife" crew in as simple a language as possible.

The local rainy season in Shangri-La has advanced nearly two months, and the entire crew is unable to carry out normal filming.Yu Feihong decided to tentatively schedule filming and resume filming next year, but the entire crew's schedule was wasted for two months.

"Leader, I'm thinking, it's not easy for my senior sister to prepare a movie for so many years. She also helped me when I was a newcomer. I really can't bear to see her spend half of her life's savings like this. I'm in trouble, so I want to help." After hearing Sun Yi's explanation, Han Sanping became even more fond of him.

People in high positions tend to pay more attention to a person's character. He especially admires Sun Yi's character of repaying kindness and valuing affection and righteousness.

Sun Yi valued the senior sister who helped him so much, not to mention other people who had helped him.

"Indeed, although Yu Yatou is a little stubborn, it is indeed not easy. Tell me what you think and I will listen."

"Leader, this is what I think. My senior sister's movie will definitely not be filmed this year. The remaining schedules of the seniors who have been begging grandpa and grandma to come here are wasted. Why don't I accept it and use this opportunity? With the time and existing staff, we will hurry up and make another movie.”

"Firstly, you can help my senior sister reduce her losses, and here you can count me as a young and frivolous person, and it can be considered as a contribution to our Chinese-language films."

When he heard about making another movie, Han Sanping was slightly moved, but he still asked in detail.

"Well, your idea is good and feasible, but a movie can't be completed in two months from script to location scouting, preparation, and shooting. If you dare to fool me, I will fight It’s your fault.”

Sun Yi waved his hands repeatedly.

"Boss, as you said, no one can fool you. I've finished the script. It's a ready-made, purely commercial film with a high degree of completion. Take a look at it first."

As he spoke, he took out a thin notebook from behind his back.

When he heard about the commercial film, Han Sanping's eyes lit up.

He can be said to be craving for commercial films now. Those well-known directors have a very long shooting cycle, and it often takes a year or two to make a film, which makes them laugh too slowly.

The young directors who have worked so hard to train before have not grown up yet, but they finally show up and turn around to play with art, testing wildly on the edge of violation.

As for some other old-timers, the group has to invest money in the things they produce, let alone the box office. That is to pay for each film, and the landlords cannot afford to play like this.

Let’s talk about corporate reforms, one of which is called “self-financing”. He just became the leader this year, so the year-end figures shouldn’t be too ugly.

Han Sanping felt a little emotional when he thought that last year, the movie with the largest revenue ratio was Sun Yi's "Those Years".

In addition, he just watched "The Unknown" a few days ago. In addition to the evaluation results of the group's theaters, he himself is also a director and has been working in the Chinese film and television market for many years.

The film clearly has the potential to be a box office hit.

No matter what, this year's profit report of China Film Group really has to be maintained on the young man in front of me.

Therefore, he was very moved by Sun Yi's suggestion to make another purely commercial film.

Han Sanping took the script and took out a pair of glasses from the coffee table nearby, planning to read it now.

"Well, what's the subject?"

"Urban romantic comedies have no connotation. They imitate the Hollywood model and just make the audience happy."

Han Sanping raised his eyes and said smoothly:

"You are very knowledgeable about Hollywood script patterns."

Is it possible? There are a few domestic movies from previous lives that can be watched.

"Privately, I like to read it. If I read it a lot, I can get a rough idea."

"Uh-huh."

The script is not thick, only about ten pages, with a typical Hollywood three-part structure, including joy, love, twists and counterattacks. It looks really good.

After Han Sanping read it, he was slightly shocked.

How does this kid's head grow? Ordinary movie fans don't know, but he does. Sun Yi has been known for the quality of his scripts since his debut. In just two years, from the original "Send a Little Red Flower" to "Those Years" , then "The Unknown", and now another commercial script with a very high degree of completion.

Putting down the script, his eyes met Sun Yi. The latter was full of confidence and did not avoid it at all.

Han Sanping narrowed his eyes and sighed inwardly.

This guy still has goods, well, he can still continue to be exploited.

"Okay, this film has been cast by China Film."

Sun Yi was overjoyed when he heard this, but he still added a sentence.

"Well, Director Han, I'm not doing it mainly for investment. I'm mainly asking you to run it."

"It works?"

"Ah, it's too late at that time. It's time to report for project approval, review and so on. Do you think it's okay?"

Han Sanping raised his finger to point at Sun Yi and chuckled.

"Ha, it turns out that when you came to my place this time, you came through the back door."

According to the requirements of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, a film must be reported, reviewed, and then approved, and then a filming license can be issued before it can be filmed.

Those films that do not follow this procedure are all underground films, which will be banned and will never be released.

According to general procedures, this reporting and review time cannot be completed in just two months.

Therefore, Sun Yi came to meet Han Sanping this time mainly because he wanted to use his influence to greatly reduce or omit this time.

He believed that as the top leader of the China Film Group, Han Sanpinjue had a solution.

"Yes, Director Han, I have no choice but to come to your place to worship Buddha."

Han Sanping pondered for a moment, glanced at the script on the table, and then nodded and affirmed:

"Okay, I agreed. It's still the same old rules. China Film Investment will invest 30.00% and be responsible for distribution."

"Hey, thank you, leader."

While talking about Sun Yi, he wanted to get up and say goodbye.

Director Wang Bo had told him before that Director Han would have another bureau for a while. He was being interviewed during the break. After the matter was done, he had to be sensible.

That one, Han Sanping stopped him

"Why go?"

"Uh, Director Han, I'm leaving now so I won't disturb your rest."

"Do you have any plans for the evening?"

When the leader asked this, even if there was an arrangement, he had to say no, let alone Sun Yi really didn't have one.

"Nothing planned."

"Come to a dinner party with me. Anyway, it has something to do with you."

At this time, Sun Yi was a little confused.

Does it still have something to do with yourself?
Han Sanping seemed to have read Sun Yi's thoughts and specifically explained:
"It will definitely be beneficial for me to meet my friends from Hong Kong Island."

 Recently, some readers have reported that the plot is a little slow. After some self-examination, I found that it makes sense. Sure enough, it still needs constant criticism from readers.

  We decided to start from two aspects, speed up the pace and increase updates.

  Today’s two chapters are in one, which counts as one extra chapter. There will be no more chapters tonight. There will be two chapters as usual tomorrow.

  Readers are welcome to provide comments, but please be more specific.

  This is my first time writing a book, and it’s easy for me to enjoy myself while writing.So I really need your suggestions. If it is convenient, you can join the group or leave a chapter message. I will read it. Please show your respect in the book review section and let Lao Xiong eat for a living and add a chicken drumstick.

  Best regards
  Ask for recommendations, ask for monthly tickets, ask for subscriptions.

  Thank you!
