China Entertainment: Indulge in Vanity Fair

Chapter 5 Identifying New Movies

Next, He Fang selected a standard film investment contract template from the computer, and then the two discussed some details. He Fang, who was still a little uncertain, sent an electronic file to Guo Zhaosheng and asked him to think about it when he went back. The script is done.

That's right, until now Guo Zhaosheng hasn't mentioned the script, nor asked He Fang what story he wants to film.

He Fang also lamented that money in this era is too easy to cheat. He finally knows what a picture is called at the beginning, and the content depends entirely on the edited era.

Before he traveled, he had heard that in this era, only a PPT is needed to swindle investment, and many bosses are fooled.

But in Guo Zhaosheng, you don't even need a PPT, all you need is a mouth, as long as your mouth is not bad, you can fool Guo Zhaosheng.

No wonder Wu Lai was able to cheat him out of 200 million, it was too easy to cheat.

Of course, He Fang does not think that Guo Zhaosheng is stupid, it is completely like this in this era, in the period of extensive development, he just throws money around to try, and he makes a lot of money in the test, and he will not make a sound if he fails in the test. Learn the lesson and keep trying.

In this day and age, angel investment only exists in a few industries, so most bosses don’t have any scientific investment templates to learn and refer to. They really rely on tuition fees to buy lessons in whatever industry they invest in.

But He Fang, who is over excited, can't think about writing the script yet, but has to think about registering the company.After all, this requires a formal film and television company to do the project, and the payment must be formal.

So, he picked up his mobile phone and called his father in this time and space.

When Lao He heard that Wu Laijuan ran away with the money, he was so angry that it was a shame, and what was more serious was that he put his son in an embarrassing situation, which made him even more angry.

But when he heard that He Fang had successfully fooled him into making a movie with 500 million yuan, everyone was dumbfounded. His son still has this ability?
What have you learned in the United States over the years?
However, he didn't care. Although 500 million is a lot, if He Fang loses money, his family can still afford it if they put together a pool.

Alas, after all, several million have been invested for him to study in the United States, so let’s invest another 500 million for him to start a business.

Don't ask why his family is so rich, how did the money come from, isn't it the leader of a public institution...

Don't ask, the question is what the later economist Chen said: Who doesn't have a deposit of 50 yuan?
Which provincial capital has few wealthy families?Take a look at those who bring money to the United States and the West, not too much every year, all of them have a lot of money, where does their money come from?
Not much to say outside the topic, after finishing the business of starting a company, why not concentrate on which movie I want to make.

First of all, it must be a commercial film.

Secondly, it must be in line with this era. Copying movies from later generations is simply a waste.

Finally, the degree of difficulty should not be too high.To be honest, He Fang's level of director has never really made a movie in his two lifetimes combined.

This difficulty factor is too high, how can it be suppressed?
Although he has learned a lot in Hollywood and imitated a lot, he is even more confident that as long as he is given a chance, he will have no problem.

However, based on the experience of where he traveled, anyone who thinks there is no problem is often a problem.

and so……

Of course it is... a copy of "Far Cry", which happened to be released in another time and space, that is, in 2011, which is not far from 2009, which proves that the audience's tastes are similar.

Since "Far Cry" can be successful, it shouldn't be too much difference two years in advance.

The most important thing is that this film does not require too strict technology, and the production does not look so sophisticated.

But this film has sold a high box office, which proves that this kind of thing is very suitable for the taste of the audience.

Of course, there are three main factors for the success of this movie:
One is the name of Yang Mi's four little female roles back then. The TV series "Gong Suo Yu Xin" in early 2011 attracted a lot of fans for her, and Chen Xiaochun also has some old fans.

The second is that thriller and horror films are the easiest type of low-cost films in this era to fight big with small ones. Popularity is very important. No matter what era is popular, you can make some money by doing whatever is popular.It's like martial arts is no longer popular after 2000, no matter how it is filmed, it has no box office.It is also like the comedies after "Lost in Thailand" are very popular, as long as they can make the audience laugh, they can make money.

In fact, this is also the secret of success. You have to follow the general trend in doing things. Only by following the general trend can you be more successful.Those who act against the general trend, unless they are people with horoscopes against the sky, will basically die and leave no scum left.

Three, everyone understands that many people look at it for what.

So, since this movie is suitable for a novice director like He Fang and has a great chance of success, let's go for it.

Of course, in terms of He Fang’s three or four years of film commentary short videos, it’s not that there are no low-cost films for him to choose from, but they are domestically produced and influential, and suitable for him to use to fight fires now. “Far Cry” " might be more appropriate.

The culture of "Shark Beach" and "Blast Drummer" in foreign countries is different. In fact, it is not as stable as "Far Cry".

The most important thing is to find a few big-breasted actresses to earn box office. This is relatively simple to get started.He Fang has shot a lot of beauty photos and videos in Hollywood, and he knows how to take good-looking pictures.

Of course, the movie hype is also important.

However, who is going to make this film now, without the blessings of Yang Mi and Chen Xiaochun, I don't know what the effect will be.

Can't handle that much anymore.

Just when He Fang locked himself in the room and was about to copy the script, there was a knock on his door. He Fang opened the door and saw that it was the crew that Wu Lai had brought over.

Fortunately, there was only one person in charge. If everyone was in charge, eating and drinking every day would not be a small amount.

"He Fang, what's the matter?" Zhang Qian, the production director, led the show.

This is a handsome guy, with a height of 178, a melon-shaped face, thick lips and white teeth, and a high nose bridge. He really looks like Aaron Kwok at a height of four or six.

And his skin is really good, other men in their teens or 20s have acne on their faces, or their skin is dry and rough.Zhang Qian has always had a fair and clean face, red in the white, neither tanned nor aged.

It's a pity that a pair of squinting eyes ruins everything. Yes, Zhang Qian's eyes are narrow and small.

But this can't hide his handsome side.

He Fang is familiar with him, because he is also a classmate of He Fang, one year older than He Fang, in 82.

With He Fang's classmates from elementary school to junior high school, the high school is no longer in the same school.

He is the son of Zhang Yue, the former director of the prop workshop of Huying Factory. After the layoffs of Huying Factory, his family started to operate electrical appliances business.

Zhang Qian originally graduated from Hunan Business School with a major in business administration, but he found a good job and helped his father run the family's chain of home appliance supermarkets.

Of course, as a playful person, he likes to mix with the crew, and he made some films with Wu Lai, and he was the production director on the scene.

He is quite handsome, white and clean, tall and strong.

Besides Zhang Qian, there is another person who grew up with He Fang in the factory, that is the photographer Jiao Guoxiong, who is three years older than He Fang.

Jiao Guoxiong, 29 years old, is not tall, only 1.7 meters tall, but strong, he is doing photography, and he has developed his strength by carrying the machine every day.He is the son of Jiao Wenming, director of the photography workshop of the former staff of Hu Film Studio. He graduated from the Communication Department of Hunan Radio and Television University with a major in photography.

Now he is a photographer of Hunan TV Station, and has filmed TV dramas and news interviews with the group.Of course, Wu Lai is also the photographer who often shoots films.

It's just that after He Fang went to the United States to study, the two of them didn't have much contact with He Fang. Only Zhang Qian would occasionally go to He Fang's house under the leadership of his father to pay New Year's greetings during the Chinese New Year.

Jiao Guoxiong is completely unconnected.

Except for these two He Fang who are a little familiar, the other art teacher Song Xuegao and makeup artist Gu Guiping are not familiar with He Fang.

He just knew that Song Xuegao was 37 years old, an artist of Hu Film Studio, and a graduate of Hu National Academy of Fine Arts, majoring in sculpture.He didn't go in the garden, because he had a relationship with his family that allowed him to go to the Huying Studio where there were not many people.

He is quite an honest person, and he is not very good at interpersonal relationships. Maybe he is a bit of a born artist.

Gu Guiping is simple, in her thirties, it is the makeup that Wu Lai pulled from the TV station.

Originally, there was an actor assistant director, but he didn't follow. Wu said that he got the money first, and then asked the actor assistant director to find someone to audition.

result……

"Ah, you guys are here. I was busy and forgot to explain the situation to you just now. That's right, Wu Lai has already taken the money and fled to the United States, and then I have a new project to cooperate with Mr. Guo. You guys Don't worry, the movie will continue to be made, but the content is different."

"Ah..." Several people exclaimed in surprise, as expected, something serious happened.
