China Entertainment: Indulge in Vanity Fair

Chapter 75

When Guo Zhaosheng repeatedly confirmed that what He Fang said was true, he was immediately frightened, it was too much to play.The main reason is that He Fang also told him that he was not sure of getting back the capital and told him not to participate, it was just a joke with him.

However, He Fang also told him that if he wants to see Cameron, he should come to Changsha on the 26th.

Time passed quickly, and the setting and preparation of "On the Journey" were no longer urgent matters. He Fang only watched the clip of "Single Zoo" once.

Now he is working hard on the script of "Pacific Rim", and of course he has to correct some unreasonable and flawed shortcomings in it.

This is a typical monster movie, what's the difference with Ultraman?One is anime and one is real life.

But even if everyone knows that this is a routine, it does not affect its ability to sell well. Considering that in another time and space, this movie also sold [-] billion U.S. dollars at the box office, and a second film was made. It can be seen that there is still a market.

It's just that the producer's purpose of encircling money was too obvious at that time, and they were too careless in production, so they pulled their hips later.

However, this does not affect He Fang's desire to shoot it. Now that he knows the audience's complaints about it, how can he shoot it again without avoiding these slots?
"Wearing a mecha to fight monsters? This... the story is very... routine, are you sure this movie will have a box office?"

When He Fang showed the script to Huying's executives, Gu Yang asked with some doubts.

Similarly, Huang Ke, He Ben, Wang Tiejun and others here also agreed with Gu Yang's words. They still thought why Fang would come up with a story with such a big brain hole, and it turned out to be a movie about fighting monsters.

"Ha, Secretary Gu, this story seems like a bloody story, but it can't stand the maturity of the routine, and the audience likes it. It's like Ultraman, don't children know that the next episode is to fight monsters? It's like the audience of "Far Cry" I don’t know if this is a routine movie? And the audience of “Transformers” don’t know that the next movie will still be a battle of several car robots? This kind of movie doesn’t care whether the story is routine or not, but whether the visual feast can stimulate the audience’s adrenal glands, as long as The audience is excited and shocked by the special effects, then everything is easy to talk about. Popcorn movies, aren’t they all like this.”

After He Fang finished speaking, Secretary Gu laughed immediately, and he waved his hand.

"I think there is nothing wrong with what He Fang said. Let's not talk about the value of art. If you want to make money, you have to be more commercial. Of course, it is good if you can combine art with business."

Huang Ke also nodded, "I think He Fang will do a good job. "Far Cry" is very commercial, but "Single Zoo" is very literary, and the upcoming "People on the Journey" is in the commercial and literary field. There is a balance. This proves that He Fang has a good idea of ​​what kind of film and method he has, so we don’t have to worry about it. Besides, how can we recover the cost without commercial investment in such a large film?”

With the support of the two big bosses, the others didn't say anything, after all, He Fang paid for it himself.

"By the way, He Fang, you said that the actual investment in this film is at most 6 million. Then our Huying accounted for 30% of Tuanhuo Culture's shares. We should follow the rules and follow the rules. We should vote for us. Don't be afraid of wolves. The back is afraid of tigers, how can there be a company that only makes money but does not invest in it? Although Huying Group is poor, it still has the courage to do things."

Gu Yang made a decision, and as soon as his words fell, everyone present was stunned, but the people in Huying understood again, it's just that He Fang felt a little stressed.

"No, Secretary Gu, if you want to do this, I will be under pressure. If I vote for myself, I will not be under pressure. If I lose, I will lose. I don't care, and I have no responsibility. If you let Hu Ying vote, if I lose, I won't be punished by the lake." The members of the movie stare at each other coldly every day, I can't bear it."

"Hey, He Fang, what are you talking about? Is it just this little money that Huying has lost all these years? You are a child of Huying, and it's not like you don't understand the situation, so don't say these things. I think it's just So it’s decided, what do you think?” After Secretary Gu finished speaking, he looked at everyone in Huying.

No matter how powerful he is, he still needs to be democratic, and he can't talk about it.

"I support Secretary Gu's statement." Huang Ke was the first to express his opinion. As the second in command of the group, he must unite with the first in command at critical moments.

Besides, now that He Fang may be the hope of the rise of Huying Group, he can't chill He Fang's heart and make He Fang think about him.

He Fang is not an employee of the group, Huang Ke has no threat to him but only help, why should he be a bad guy?
With Huang Ke's first agreement, it is even more impossible for others to object.

So this resolution was reached so happily, but He Fang looked dignified, it was a lot of pressure.

However, it was no longer his turn to say anything about the pressure. He had to go to the capital immediately to pick up Cameron and his party to fly to Zhangjiajie.

In the past two days, Cameron and his party have been in the circle and occupied a lot of topics in the entertainment news.

When He Fang and Wang Tiejun, the representative of Huying Group, went to the capital to connect with Cameron's team, the leaders of China Film were very surprised by He Fang, a young man.

"Where are you? Tsk tsk, young and promising, there are very few returnees in China's film industry who have studied abroad. Chinese films need overseas study personnel like you to return to China to bring new ideas and new prospects to the film industry. I watched your "Far Cry", it was really good..."

He Fang didn't know that Han Sanping was so eloquent. It was the first time we met, so He Fang asked He Fang to chat a lot.

He even talked about who he wants to cooperate with in new movies, investment and publicity can be cooperated.

He Fang was completely confused now, so enthusiastic?

Of course, He Fang could only humbly agree all the way.

"Director He, Cameron said yesterday that he wanted to cooperate with you in a 3D sci-fi blockbuster? Is it true?"

I don't know when Wang Zhonglei also mixed in the crowd, and when He Fang was free, he immediately came over and asked He Fang.

Now how can he understand why Han Sanping is so enthusiastic, and this is the co-authorship?

This kind of film Huying Group is still considering risks, and He Fang is also trying to get back the cost, but what others see is the effect of transnational cooperation.

"There is such a thing. Why, Huayi has an idea? The total investment is more than 8 million. Do you dare to invest?"

In the face of Huayi's non-premium, how can we do it? Let's call 8 million first.

"Hiss, so much? More than 1 million US dollars?" Wang Zhonglei was also taken aback. This is more frightening than the three major domestic directors who constantly shouted hundreds of millions of production costs.

"Yeah, because the investment is big and risky, I didn't tell you before, I'm afraid you won't be able to afford it." He Fang prodded.

"Then you can afford it?" Wang Zhonglei asked back.

"Well, it's impossible for Xiao Wang to doubt the financial resources and determination of the entire radio and television industry in Hun Province, right? Do you know what it means to concentrate on big things? This is something that private enterprises don't have."

"Hiss, this..."

"Mr. Wang, you can just listen to it. It's not worth the investment for you. Next time we have a project and cooperate again. Well, I won't talk to you in detail today. We have to go and keep in touch."

He Fang didn't give Xiao Wang a chance to talk more, and then he left the hotel with Cameron and the others who had already packed their luggage and got on the car to the airport.

"Mr. Wang, did you ask where? Is it true?" Han Sanping watched the convoy go away, and asked Wang Zhonglei beside him.

"I asked. They said that they invested 8 million yuan, and Huayi was not allowed to participate. They said that Hunan Radio and Television could afford it. It seems to be true."

When Han Sanping heard this, he narrowed his eyes.The China Film Group had just pressed an upper shadow earlier, and now a lake shadow has popped up?
