My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 403 Departmental cooperation, coquettish bitch

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!

in the conference room.

Wu Xiaozu continued to communicate with various departments about the specific filming matters, allowing departments to run in and contact each other.

It is not easy to shoot a big production with huge funds.

It is preliminarily estimated that more than 1300 related staff members will be employed and hired by this film, and the staff involved will cover multiple regions. Scheduling, board and lodging, and personnel expenses for these staff members will be a cumbersome task.

The work of the production team, overall planning, and planning will be very cumbersome.Any large-scale commercial film will eventually be the result of a meticulous division of labor and teamwork.Fortunately, Wu Xiaozu had filmed "Twin Heroes" before, and this time the investment was bigger, but he already had experience in dealing with it.

Wu Xiaozu is the chief director, and the entire crew will be divided into three director and executive teams.

Qiu Litao and Liu Weiying are in charge of a director team respectively, and Fei Cheng and Chen Jiaxuan are in charge of an executive team.

Chen Jiaxuan is a new screenwriter and assistant director newly promoted by Qiu Litao. Some time ago, he also had experience working in the director team of "The King of Green Hat" and "Young and Dangerous".

Different from the filming crew of "Suspect", this time, Wu Xiaozu adopted the working mode of a large crew.That is, the crew system commonly used in Hollywood to work.

in Hollywood.

In fact, the main role of the director of photography is not simply to control the machine. A good director of photography needs to make the scene he and the director have imagined together into a movie, decide the correct time, place and atmosphere to use the lighting, and choose the camera angle and aperture that are most suitable for the plot. ,scene.

Many directors on Hong Kong Island who don't know how to make films will find a senior photography director to cooperate with them.But Wang Jiawei also chose Ao Zhijun to help him.

Cough cough, Uncle Long's photography director and executive director are also very high level!
The director of photography will be responsible for three groups, namely the camera group, lighting group and mechanical group.

The photography team includes camera operators, focus officers, and photography assistants who are responsible for changing lenses, and small workers to carry equipment and adjust equipment... This time there will be more than 50 people in total, and this time "God of Gamblers" will have more than 5 sets.

The lighting group needs to arrange lighting according to the lighting diagram, allocate and adjust the light source, and the light cooperates with photography and shooting.There will be no less than 40 lighting engineers, lighting technicians, electricians, lighting assistants, technicians, and small workers.

The supervisor of the mechanical group generally needs to have rich shooting experience, familiar with the operation of camera and lighting and the basics of engineering, construction, high-altitude operations, boom installation, large-scale action scene wiring, flag boards, sandbags, butterfly cloth frames, and reflectors must be Familiar with it, and at the same time be responsible for the equipment transportation of the crew. With the scale of "God of Gamblers", the number of people is the largest, basically more than 70 people.

"God of Gamblers" involves difficult professional shooting such as chasing cars, gambling wheels, and helicopters, and the number of staff used is definitely not a small number.

Thankfully this is 1988.

Moreover, Director Wu Xiaozu has an upright character, and he will never be like Chen Kexin, who will be reimbursed thousands of dollars for a straw hat, which is a scam for investors!

"The crew's finances must strictly control the flow of funds! For this movie, the procurement of various departments needs to be processed, and every account must be reviewed!"

Following Wu Xiaozu's repeated strict instructions, he smiled sincerely at He Pangpang who was next to him, and nodded slightly at the representative of the Scholars Company in Hong Kong.

He Pangpang responded with a slight smile, his face was full of trust, and he only felt that Wu Xiaozu was really caring and serious when he was working, meticulous in doing things, and completely professional.

The representative of the Scholars Company also nodded in satisfaction, admiring Director Wu's professionalism.

The movie "Suspect" is heading for a box office of 3000 million. As an investor, she has earned a lot of fame, and a large profit will be recorded.Recently, her old man spoke highly of Wu Xiaozu.

"Pepsi, Mercedes-Benz, Emperor Jewelry and Watches...these sponsored funds and products should be implemented in time." Wu Xiaozu told the person in charge next to him, "The money must be deposited into the special account before this Saturday."

The billionaire leader's ability to attract money is absolutely the best in Hong Kong!Such a big production of big director + big star is favored by many brands. During the filming of "Double Heroes", we have cooperated with Mercedes-Benz, high-end watches, and clothing brands, and the results are gratifying. This time, Mercedes-Benz (Mercedes-Benz) once again participated in the sponsorship of this drama.

In addition, Pepsi has also joined the list of sponsors.

Before the filming of "God of Gamblers" started, there were already 13 sponsors.Including the gambling boat spinach controlled by the He family.The income has returned nearly 1000 million!
In this era, the radiating power of Hong Kong films is not weak in Asia.Especially with the vigorous development of Hong Kong Island's economy, major companies have also begun to focus on big-budget movies.Uncle Long's films have become favored partners of many sponsors and companies.

In this life, Director Wu's appeal is obviously not inferior to that of Uncle Long.This play is known as a masterpiece with an investment of 3500 million yuan and an actual cash of 2800 million yuan.

It's a play that these companies are willing to gamble on.What's more, compared to the advertising expenses these companies invest in a year, this sponsorship is really insignificant.Compared to the upsurge in sponsorship fees that is about to appear in Hollywood, Wu Xiaozu's move is at best a drizzle.

He is also very conscientious, and only made a false report of 700 million.

In terms of false reports, you still have to convince a certain skr, a certain Cai XX... skr released an album to hit the charts, and the sales volume on the first day was hundreds of times that of No.2 Lady Gaga... (rough pronunciation: hundreds of times~~~~)

The American people were dumbfounded: Walter Electric Eel, what are you doing?

A certain Cai XX is even more awesome, a certain wave of Weibo has hundreds of millions of reposts... At that time, there were more than 3 million registrations on Weibo, which means that one of the three passers-by knew him, and he even reposted it to him... I Bought a watch last year!You might as well watch POY...

Therefore, Wu scum still has a bottom line. . .

The staff of the film crew discussed the preparations before shooting in this room, while Wu Xiaozu led the main actors, He Pangpang, Jiang Jiahua and the representative of the scholar to his office next to him.

Wang Xianxian, Gao Doumei, Teacher Zhang, and Miss Zhou chatted in Wu Xiaozu's office in a "harmonious" atmosphere.

Guan Erqiu's role with the little aunt is not important, Erqiu went to Dongying to relax in advance, and is still eliminating the bad influence of her being attacked by a group of people in the hotel lobby some time ago.The little aunt is very Buddhist, and she doesn't step into Wang Xianxian's territory at all... She is helping Xu Anhua raise funds.

Wang Xianxian looked around at the smiling girl Gao Shau, the gentle teacher Zhang, and the innocent Miss Zhou, and a feeling of loneliness emerged spontaneously.

Legs, no one is longer than yourself!
Ass, no one is better than myself!

Front teeth, no one is more protruding than yourself!

Ventriloquism, I can be cold, fire, chatter, wrap, suck, hook, spin, swallow, blow, bite, drill, quiver, and scrape...

I sighed in my heart, none of these few could fight.

Wang Xianxian was shaking a bunch of keys to the mansion of Dingge No. 1 on his fingers.

Originally thought that the little aunt would come, but unfortunately the little aunt didn't give Wang Xianxian a chance to show off.

Wu Xiaozu arranged the actors with a smile, and began to chat with them about the details that each role needs to pay attention to.Most of them have cooperated with Wu Xiaozu at least once, and the only ones who have not cooperated are Zhang Min and Wan Zixuan.

Wu Xiaozu also specifically told the two of the things that need attention.

"Acting is a science, and the preparation now is just to provide the most basic foundation for your performance. I hope you can get familiar with the script in advance. If you have any questions or don't understand, you can contact me at any time, no matter in This is still the crew." Wu Xiaozu glanced at the crowd earnestly.

Zhang Min's face was tense, Zhou Huimin didn't know what to say, only Gao Lihong showed understanding.
"Director Wu, I don't think my role seems to be a bad guy in the traditional sense..." Wan Zixuan asked hesitantly.In Hong Kong Island movies at this time, the audience basically knows who the villain is as soon as the villain appears.

However, the "sir" he plays does not seem to be a bad guy in the traditional sense.

"Every character has two sides. Bad guys don't necessarily have to be vicious, right? I hope you understand this role with the mentality of playing a good guy."

Wu Xiaozu thought for a while and wanted to give him some inspiration, "You can use the pros and cons of different ideas to speculate."

Wan Zixuan nodded thoughtfully.

He really likes the setting of this villain.

Wu Xiaozu would not be stupid enough to make a villain like the "corpse girl" sister-in-law in his previous life, it's too tasteless! ?

If the God of Gamblers is at this level, I think Ni Yongxiao can play to death... And the God of Gamblers is too much nonsense... He has to show off his $[-] liquid crystal glasses... What did Bausch & Lomb say?

Especially the gambling game is untenable... Both of them cheated, so why do you say that the old man is more despicable?Wang Jingsheng made the God of Gamblers very low... Zhou Runfa supported a drama.

At this level, the income of foreign ticket warehouses is as high as [-] million!This time is really the golden age of Hong Kong movies.

"咚咚-"

There was a sudden knock on the door.

"Please come in—" Wu Xiaozu was chatting with Zhou Runfa, Zhang Min, and Wan Ziyu about the relationship between the characters, and when he heard the knock on the door, he responded casually.

Outside.

Ye Yuqing untied the windbreaker and flung it on the table beside her, revealing her cool attire inside. She touched up her makeup in front of the small mirror, just in time to hear Wu Xiaozu's voice, her beautiful eyes were delighted——

"..."

"..."

"..."

Wang Xianxian was talking about filming with Zhou Huimin and Gao Lihong, when he suddenly felt a fox smell coming, he suddenly raised his head.

The eyes were still smiling, but they stared straight at him coldly!

Ye Yuqing walked into the room with a smile on her face, and her whole body froze in place.

This plot is a bit wrong...there are too many people!

"Is there any tear?" Wang Xianxian flicked her hair, stepped on the catwalk and walked up to greet her with a smile.

The heart is full of fighting emotions.

The old lady didn't come in vain, and finally let the old lady meet a coquettish bitch!

"Darling, is she also an actress in "God of Gamblers"?" Wang Xianxian glanced at Wu Xiaozu with a chuckle, and smiled very affectionately.

remember.

Don't directly deny it at this time, even if you directly deny it, it will still be considered as a cover-up!
What scene has Director Wu not seen?

Seeing Wang Zuzhen ask a question that must die - Wu Xiaozu responded instantly.

"Who?" Wu Xiaozu glanced at Ye Yuqing suspiciously, frowned, "Who are you?"

Who are you? !
Ye Yuqing's smile froze directly on her face... You don't know my mother's face, don't you know my mother's breasts?
Wang Xianxian looked at Wu Xiaozu frowning suspiciously and impatiently looked at the indifferent appearance of the alluring slut in front of him, chose to believe Wu Xiaozu, and instantly withdrew his doubts in his heart.

After Wu Xiaozu finished asking, he couldn't pretend that nothing happened and continue chatting with Wan Zixuan and the others.Going the other way, he stood up actively, looked directly at Ye Yuqing with open eyes, and then glanced at Wang Xianxian, as if asking again: "Your friend?"

Then he frowned, showing a little annoyed state, as if he was saying to Wang Xianxian: Don't invite friends to come during working hours!

Wang Zuzhen was stunned for a moment, and then quickly took the initiative to shake his head slightly to Wu Xiaozu, explaining with his eyes: not my friend!It's none of my business... Seeing Wu Xiaozu's frown, Xianxian made a pitiful coquettish... I didn't even react to the taste, so I gave up first...

To deal with fairies and goddesses, Wu Xiaozu will pinch them with his hands!

"I... I, I... I'm Ye Zhiming's younger sister—my brother asked me to invite you to his office." Ye Yuqing looked at Wu Xiaozu's indifferent glance at herself, feeling blessed, and hurriedly found an excuse .

Crisis averted!

Wu Renscum pulled himself out of the vortex very well.
