China Entertainment: Indulge in Vanity Fair

Chapter 74 What I Play Is Frightening
The matter of He Fang's invitation to Cameron was rocked, and it came from inside China Film Group, because Fox sent a new China schedule.

In addition, He Fang revealed at the premiere of "October Siege" that the agreement with Cameron has also spread, which confirms that this Hollywood returnee really cooperated with Cameron of.

The earlier reports in the media turned out not to be bragging, but true.

A little shit about a big name can make the whole circle stir up trouble. For such a big event as Cameron's China trip, anyone who has anything to do with him is a big event, and everyone in the circle is inquiring about it.

So He Fang became popular again with Cameron's light, and he didn't even know it.

Because he is rushing to Changsha with the main creators now, he has to go back to confirm the shooting location, otherwise Cameron will delay him for several days, and he still wants to start the machine in early January, February [-]th It's New Year's Eve, and try to finish it before New Year's Eve.

I forgot to mention, who are the main creators of "People on the Journey" now.

The producer is still Guan Jianqiang, after all, he is half of himself, so this cannot be changed for the time being.

The executive director was still Kuang Shubo, so he honked the horn on the set and acted as He Fang's megaphone.He Fang wanted to change him, he wanted to change to a professional film director.After all, Kuang Shubo is old, in his 40s, and has been working as a program director in Mango TV, and he is studying TV broadcasting.

It's just that He Fang hasn't found a suitable executive director to replace. He still wants to wait for the return of the first batch of CalArts advanced training classes. The five directors who went to study directing are all graduated from Nortel.

Speaking of the main creator of "People on the Journey", the director of photography invited this time is a big name, Du Jie, Ning Hao's photographer, "Green Grass", "Crazy Stone", "Crazy Racing", "Western Wind" "It's all him.

The art director is Hao Yi, the artist of "Nanjing Nanjing", and he is young, 79 years old, only four years older than He Fang.

Of course, Du Jie is not old, he is 76 years old.

The editing of "People on the Journey" is still Teacher Qian Lin, and the music is An Wei.

As for the actors, He Fang is quite satisfied this time.

He Fang himself is naturally the male number one Li Chenggong, and Wang Baoqiang is Niu Geng. The choice of actress is good.

Zhang Yuqi played the role of a sexy young woman. I don't know how Hu Kai got her into it. I have to admire the energy of some actors and assistant directors.

Huang Yi played the beautiful role. He Fang really admired Hu Kai. This kid is quite good.

It's He Jie who plays the female liar, it's okay, it's okay, He Jie is still a little hot at this moment.

Li Man is still playing Manny, I don't know how Hu Kai found it.

The one playing Nana is Huo Siyan, who was the best newcomer at the Golden Statue Awards, who actually came to play a guest role on the crew...

When Hu Kai tricked her over that day, He Fang was really, really, a little surprised.

Well, what about the cast list?
To put it bluntly, they all came here to form a good relationship. There are few movies now, and the actors like to go to some movies to make cameo appearances to give the director some face.

Next time, if the director has any good roles, right...you have to think about it.

Even the directors Fan Bingbing and Li Bingbing posted, there is no reason for them not to have a good relationship. It only took a few days and it wasn't too much trouble.

"Huang Yi, this time we have a good relationship. Director He Fang invited Cameron to Hunan. Aren't we going to Changsha to film? Maybe we can go have a meal and take a photo together. I heard that Cameron Meimei's banquet in the capital didn't have many actors at all, but some from Huayi might meet Cameron..."

"Sister Na, you should ask Director He about this matter first, and don't deliberately make it difficult for Director He." Huang Yi said.

"Well, sure, I'll get in touch right away..."

Not only Huang Yi, but also the managers of several other actors have moved their minds.

Ever since, when He Fang returned to Changsha, he received calls from these actors' agents.

It doesn't matter to He Fang, if you want to have dinner together, it's fine, anyway, he has expected it a long time ago, he still doesn't understand the characteristics of Chinese people?

All agree, but no, so all the actors are happy.

They can't participate in the China Film Group's banquet, so where can they be.

He Fang didn't go to Huying Group to discuss important matters, but spent the night at home discussing with his father.

In fact, he was still entangled in the money. He Ben felt that the risk was too great. Even if He Fang told him that the cost would be up to [-] million, He Ben still couldn't accept it.

I kept asking where did I get so much money for the auction?Even if there is so much money to shoot, this is a loss, what should I do if I lose?
"Dad, you don't have to worry about how the money will come. You will never need a penny from the family, nor will you ask for a penny from the Huying Group. I will handle it myself. As for how to get it done, don't worry, it is absolutely legal."

"In addition, you are worried that the box office will not be able to get it back. In fact, there is no need to worry at all. Because I want to use the Hollywood distribution channel. Since Cameron wants to support me with technology, then Fox has to announce and support me no matter what? My actors use The combination of Hollywood and China. The domestic market alone will definitely not be able to recover the cost, and I am sure of this."

"Actually, it won't cost as much money as you imagined. Of course, if the construction of a studio, the construction of a special effects computer room, the purchase of 3D equipment... etc. are included in the investment of the film, then I guess it will cost more than ten dollars." billion to complete."

"However, even if I don't make sci-fi movies, according to the previous film industrialization plan, wouldn't Lake Film Group have to build these hardware?"

"So when I said that I can't spend that much money, I mean the part that does not include the basic investment. I assume that, like Hollywood, all these basic things are available. I made this sci-fi movie on this basis. In fact, it would not cost as much as you imagined." so many."

Where does anyone have an idea.

"The cost can be figured out. The key is that it doesn't matter how much you invest. The key is whether you can get it back. Are you sure about the international route you said? It seems that there is no international route in China, right?" He Ben worried. road.

"Dad, what are you afraid of? The worst thing is that you will lose money. I can afford it." He Fang promised with a bang on his chest.

"A few hundred million, can you afford to lose? How can you afford to lose?" He Ben became angry.

"Do you know how much this year's "The Voice" and "If You Are the One" earned? There are at least five such popular programs in my mind, isn't it a few hundred million?"

"..." He Ben was stunned. When did their family become so rich that they didn't care about losing hundreds of millions?

Crazy, this is definitely not my family, my family is not so rich.

"Isn't it a few hundred million? Oh, what a big tone..."

"The gross profit of the first season of "The Voice" was about 1.7 million, and "If You Are the One" now has a gross profit of about [-] million. Dad, this is my confidence. Our family is not short of money. What are you afraid of?"

"What? This, so much money?" He Ben was stunned.

"Otherwise, what do you think?" He Fang said proudly, tossing his hair, crossed his legs, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and lit it.

"Hey, then I'll do whatever you want. However, don't get carried away just because you've made money and invest and spend money indiscriminately. Some people fail faster and fall faster just because they have money." He Ben reminded.

"Don't worry, Dad."

……

The next day, he asked Guan Jianqiang to take photography and art to the scene, and he came to Huying Group to talk with the leaders about Cameron's coming.

The leaders of the Huying Group were dumbfounded by He Fang's squandering of hundreds of millions, but they were also helpless. What could they do if they were willing to do this?

Now that this is the case, let's make relevant follow-up plans.

Huying Group discussed how to quickly purchase advanced 3D photography equipment, quickly build a computer special effects room and two 1000-square-meter large studios to meet He Fang's new film shooting.

At the same time, He Fang has been writing the script of "Pacific Rim" while preparing for "On the Journey" in the past few days. Not to mention the refined version of the script, at least he has to show others the first draft after Cameron arrives.

After all, it is not enough to want Cameron and Fox to support without a good story.

At this moment, He Fang's phone rang, and it was Guo Zhaosheng calling.

"Hey, Director He, I heard that you and Cameron have a... no, contact? Can you let me meet this international director?"

"Want to see? Then do you want to invest in my new film? It's a collaboration with Cameron's team."

"Vote, must vote, how much should I vote?"

"Then you can share 7 million, and the remaining [-] million will be mine."

"Puff... Cough, cough, cough... No, Director He, why have you been in the capital for a while, and you are the same as those braggarts in the capital? It's a project of several hundred million?"

"Ha ha……"
