China Entertainment: Gao Yanei wants to be the best actor

Chapter 212 The Absurd Reality [23]

It is said that the early domestic film and television circles were actually very small.

Because the film market was sluggish at that time, those who were able to pull down the investment to make movies were always those people who came and went back and forth over the past few years.

Therefore, under the circumstances at that time, the situation of acquaintances holding together was more serious.

The so-called Beijing Circle, Shanghai Circle, Hong Kong Circle, and Northwest Circle were mostly formed at that time.

Not to mention whether this kind of circle culture is right or wrong, but one thing that cannot be denied is that they did exist.

Because, for a small studio like Ningxia Film Factory, it is more uncomfortable.

After all, there is such a giant as the Xiying Studio standing beside them, even if there is any good project, it will not be their turn.

In the words of Yang Hongtao, director of Ningxia Film Studio, "There are 37 state-owned film studios in Huaxia, and more than 4000 film and television production companies in various places. List."

What he said was definitely not modesty.

You must know that in the past few years, Ning Film Factory was almost revoked by the National Film Bureau because of its debt of more than 500 million.

From this, it can be seen how miserable Ning Film Studio was.

The so-called "doing evil in the previous life, the magistrate attached to the country; when the evil is full, attaches to the provincial capital of the country", they are talking about it.

Fortunately, after entering the millennium, Xiying Studio gradually declined.

Only then did Ning Film Factory see a ray of dawn.

……

On the way to the teahouse, Gao Fei looked at the planning proposal handed over from Ningying Studio, and listened attentively to Han Li's explanation.

"Yes, this is a good project!"

After a while, Gao Fei nodded slowly with his eyes narrowed.

The reason why Gao Fei didn't say this is a good book, but just praised it as a good project,

That's why after making so many films, "Painted Skin" is one of the few purely commercial films he has ever seen.

Regardless of the idea of ​​the script or the entire film planning, this movie always considers things from a commercial point of view.

Therefore, although the script of the movie is not very good, Gao Fei still feels that he can get in touch with it first.

However, Han Li suddenly remembered what happened in the courtyard audition just now, so after hesitating for a moment, she confessed:
"Boss, there is a piece of news that I haven't confirmed yet, but I think it should be true."

Facing Gao Fei's puzzled eyes, Han Li dutifully said:
"According to my understanding, Ning Film Studio is the initiator and investor of the "Painted Skin" project."

But they handed over the main shooting task of "Painted Skin" to Beijing Times Video Co., Ltd. to complete. "

"Not long ago, because the investment in the film was delayed, the Beijing Times had lost confidence in the project of "Painted Skin", so they chose to withdraw halfway."

Speaking of this, Han Li couldn't help but show a helpless look and said:

"I heard that Zhen Bullet had almost talked with Ningying Film Factory, but after hearing the news, he bought a plane ticket back to Xiangjiang overnight, saying that he was not feeling well and needed to recuperate for a while."

Hearing this, Gao Fei couldn't help laughing and shook his head.

Good guy!The actors were so scared that they flew back overnight. This project seems really unusual.

If he were the director of Ning Film Factory, he would probably have the intention to kill Zhen Bullet by now.

After all, for investors, this is definitely bad news.

……

For this reason, after seeing Pang Hong in the teahouse, the two exchanged a few pleasantries, and as soon as they sat down, Gao Fei got straight to the point:

"Mr. Pang, I heard that Zhen Dan quit overnight. Is this true?"

As soon as Gao Fei said this, Pang Hong was immediately taken aback.

However, he did not expect that Gao Fei, a young man, was so sophisticated that he would not give him a chance to show off his eloquence, so he would directly attack the old man.

But no matter how much Pang Hong complained in his heart, he still had to face Gao Fei's problem.

So after seeing Pang Hong stunned for a moment, he smiled and said:
"Yes, there is such a thing."

With a calm look on his face, it seemed that he didn't care about Zhen Bullet's departure at all.

Seeing this situation, Gao Fei couldn't help looking at him with great interest, wanting to see how he explained it.

On the other side, Pang Hong was also relieved to see Gao Fei not chasing and beating him fiercely.

So after organizing the language briefly, Pang Hong explained without changing his smile:

"Mr. Gao, there are some things you may not be clear about."

"For the "Painted Skin" project, our initial expectation at Ning Film Studio was: This must be a blockbuster film that can guarantee market share in China and be competitive internationally."

Speaking of this, Pang Hong couldn't help showing a wry smile and said:

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. The factory and I have already issued a military order. If the box office of "Painted Skin" does not reach [-] million, I will jump off the building directly!"

Faced with Gao Fei's surprised eyes, Pang Hong went on to explain:
"So from the beginning, what we wanted to do was a commercial blockbuster."

"The reason why Zhen Zibao was invited is also because of his international influence."

Hearing this, Gao Fei couldn't help being speechless.

He never expected that he could hear this word again within a day.

But then, seeing Pang Hong's voice changed, he smiled and said:
"So Zhen Bullet left, I don't think it's bad news."

"After all, with Mr. Gao joining you, why should we pay a high price to invite him again?"

By the way, Pang Hong's remarks are not completely flattering Gao Fei.

Because the purpose of inviting Zhen Bullet is really to rely on him to fight the box office.

Therefore, even though Zhen Bullet offered a high price of 900 million Hong Kong dollars, Ning Film Studio gritted its teeth and agreed.

But seeing that Gao Fei is also interested in the "Painted Skin" project, Pang Hong naturally wished that Zhen Bullet would escape.

After all, the cumulative box office of Gao Fei's current movies is much higher than that of Zhen Bullet.

In terms of box office appeal, he really might not be the opponent of Gao Fei, a young man.

On the other side, when Pang Hong finished speaking, Gao Fei couldn't help showing a strange look on his face.

As for Han Li, she couldn't help laughing.

Pang Hong, who was on the opposite side, was at a loss.

Seeing this, Gao Fei quickly calmed down and said:

"Sorry, I just remembered something else."

But in any case, the escape of the actor has passed.

It's not that easy to just want Gao Fei to pay.

So he immediately asked Pang Hong about some behind-the-scenes details of the movie.

……

Half an hour later, after some communication, Gao Fei finally got a general understanding of the whole project.

To be honest, after learning more about the inside story, I have to say a word of convincing to Gao Fei of Ning Film Studio's courage.

After the project was confirmed, Ning Film Factory actually started operation with 1000 million borrowed from Ningxia Broadcasting Corporation.

If it weren't for the fact that the account of "Painted Skin" already had 1000 million, Beijing Century Jiaying, Dinglongda Jingcheng Company, Xiangjiang Taiji Film Industry, Singapore Blue Ocean Film and Television and other companies would not have taken the bait one by one.

It can be said that they dared to plan this kind of commercial blockbuster with an investment of over [-] million without much savings.

What made Gao Fei speechless the most was that Ning Ying Factory's method of empty gloves and white wolves actually made them do it.

I have to say that reality is always more ridiculous than movies.

But even so, Gao Fei still chose to invest money.

"1000 million!"

After meeting for half an hour, Gao Fei said the number calmly in Pang Hong's face.

It's just that Pang Honggang showed surprise, but Gao Fei added:

"Among them, 600 million will be converted into shares with the film salary, and the remaining 400 million will be transferred to the account separately."

As soon as this remark came out, Pang Hong couldn't help showing a tangled expression.

But when he thought that Gao Fei was worth the price, and the film crew did save 600 million yuan if converted from the film salary, Pang Hong immediately nodded decisively and said:

"Okay, then let's sign the contract this afternoon!"

So just like that, Gao Fei worked hard for a day and didn't make a penny, but instead posted 1000 million.
