China Entertainment: Gao Yanei wants to be the best actor

Chapter 376 How can I become an excellent father in the shortest time? 【Two in One】【Repair】

"you are vicious!"

After learning that Xue Xiaolu persuaded Gao Yuanyuan to join the crew of "BJ Meets Seattle", Gao Fei was completely speechless.

After learning that he was willing to participate in the performance, another investor, Anle Films, immediately swallowed the opinion that was about to come to his lips.

Speaking of which, Anle Films originally wanted to win the role of the number one female for its artist Tang Wei.

First of all, it was an idea to keep the fat and water from leaking to outsiders.

Secondly, it was Jiang Zhiqiang who wanted to make up for Tang Wei and take the opportunity to break her current embarrassment of being blocked.

It's just that their ideas are good, but they encounter Gao Fei as a variable.

So after some consideration, Jiang Zhiqiang chose the former between Gao Fei and Tang Wei.

After all, although he has been in the film industry for decades, he is still a businessman after all.

As for businessmen, making money is naturally the most important thing.

Jiang Zhiqiang knew in his heart that there are so many movie projects rushing to invite Gao Fei.

It can be said that even if he acts in a bad movie right now, it will probably sell well at the box office.

Of course, after the event, there will inevitably be word-of-mouth backlash.

But it is also because of this that the producers from all walks of life covet Gao Fei more and more.

Because now people in the industry believe that as long as Gao Fei joins a film, it will inevitably greatly reduce the risk of failure at the box office.

And this alone is enough to make many people tempted.

Anle Pictures is no exception.

But after being happy, Jiang Zhiqiang, one of the producers, had a headache, because Gao Fei's current salary is really difficult to arrange.

You must know that Han Li's current offer is 3000 million.

If calculated according to this figure, then the budget of the entire film "BJ Meets Seattle" is just enough to pay Gao Fei's salary.

Therefore, although from a professional point of view, Jiang Zhiqiang thinks that Gao Fei's offer of 3000 million yuan is very reasonable... at least it is more cost-effective than Zhen Bullet.

But from the producer's point of view, he still wanted to try to persuade Gao Fei to lower his salary a bit.

But before Gao Fei could say anything, Han Li said tactfully but resolutely that even if the film was solely funded by Zhou Yi, Gao Fei's salary should be as much as it should be.

Because now his personal income is separated from the company's income.

Hearing this, Jiang Zhiqiang felt in his heart that young people are not easy to be fooled, and he couldn't say anything more.

Finally, after some wrangling, a consensus was finally reached:
Gao Fei invested 3000 million yuan as a shareholder and took 45% of the profits, while Zhouyi Film and Television and Anle Films each contributed 1500 million yuan and shared the remaining 55% of the profits.

In fact, Gao Fei didn't want to give Anle Films so much investment share.

But there is no way, who made this "BJ Meets Seattle" have at least two-thirds of the shots shot overseas.

And in this regard, Zhouyi Film and Television and An Le Film Industry really can't compare.

After all, Jiang Zhiqiang has been in the North American film and television industry since his father's generation.

After two generations, nearly 60 years in business.

Now Anle Films' contacts and contacts in the overseas film industry can be said to have surpassed most domestic film and television companies.

But then again, Jiang Zhiqiang used this trick repeatedly in the film industry.

The bigger the name, the better the acting skills and the pursuit of the actors, whenever they hear that the budget of the crew is not enough, they will almost be moved by the reason he said "it's all for the good of the movie", and they will lower their pay to appear in the show.

It's just that the world has changed, and the methods of the past are not easy to use now.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhiqiang naturally couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "The world is going down, people's hearts are not old".

……

However, the pursuit of profit is only out of Jiang Zhiqiang's nature as a businessman.

In fact, when the news of Gao Fei joining the project of "BJ Meets Seattle" got out, the film had already started to generate income.

The first is Seven Wolves, this clothing brand almost recognized Gao Fei.

Since the endorsement in 2005, although Gao Fei's career has risen like a rocket, the Seven Wolves have not been idle, and the market value has also doubled.

Therefore, Gao Fei's endorsement fee has been increasing year by year in the past few years, but they have received bonuses from Gao Fei, and they just give the money without blinking an eye.

Even so, they are still worried that high-quality spokespersons like Gao Fei will be taken away by international clothing brands such as Armani.

So this time it was hard for Gao Fei to make a modern urban film, and they naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity to deepen their cooperation.

Before the producer came up with a specific implantation plan, the advertising department of Seven Wolves directly offered a sponsorship of 1000 million yuan.

The other party didn't even mention any specific requirements, just one meaning:
I'm here to give Gao Fei a platform!

Such an overbearing face really made the crew of "BJ Meets Seattle" salivate with envy.

But not to mention, this kind of mindless support really went against Gao Fei's temper.

Of course, anyway, he never thought about terminating the contract with Seven Wolf.

And if the two can really achieve each other, maybe they can really become a good story in the film industry.

In addition to Seven Wolves, Anle Films also brought Earl Jewelry.

Because the character of the heroine Wen Jiajia in the film is a gold digger, from dressing to daily life, there is a sense of "lady style".

Therefore, from diamond earrings, rings, to necklaces, watches and other valuable jewelry, almost all of them are covered by Earl jewelry.

This is a relatively perfect ad placement.

In addition, the mobile phones used by the hero and heroine in the script were also targeted by HTC, and Gao Fei’s car in the film was targeted by Toyota.

And these various sponsorship fees add up to almost 500 million.

It can be said that before the filming of "BJ Meets Seattle" started, the advertisers helped Zhou Yi and An Le pay for the filming.

After all, although the budget of this film is said to be 6000 million, Gao Fei's film crew did not pay at all, and all of them were converted into share.

So in a circle, Zhouyi Film and Television and Anle Films barely had time to pay a penny, and the movie was ready to shoot.

This made Jiang Zhiqiang feel more and more optimistic about Gao Fei.

Of course, "BJ Meets Seattle" is not an exaggeration.

You should know that when Feng Xiaogang filmed "If You Are the One 2" last year, almost everything from foreign wine, cars, cruise ships, credit cards, to mobile phones, websites, laptops, and even scenic spots and real estate in the movie was placed with advertisements.

If you add the 10 pre-roll advertisements at the end of the film, then "If You Are the One 2" received more than 5000 million in sponsorship fees alone, which basically offset the investment in the film.

Therefore, in the final box office of more than 4.5 million yuan, Huayi is equivalent to a net profit.

This film can also be called the "peak" moment in the history of Director Feng's implantation!
It's just a pity that everything has gains and losses.

Witness the pious believers at dusk, and the hypocritical supporters born at the peak!
How much praise Feng Xiaogang's shrewd means received in the circle at the beginning, and how much backlash he received in terms of word of mouth later.

Because he placed too many product placements in "If You Are the One 2", no matter how he designed them into the plot, they would appear a bit blunt and deliberate in the end.

The behavior of placing advertisements at the expense of movie quality is unavoidably putting the cart before the horse.

It is also because of Feng Xiaogang's lesson in "If You Are the One 2" that Jiang Zhiqiang and Gao Fei did not dare to solicit sponsorship unscrupulously this time.

After all, which one is more important to have a full meal, they still have to count in their hearts.

But then again, it is not advisable to unscrupulously place embedded advertisements in movies.

But in Gao Fei's view, it is not necessary to regard the placement of advertisements as a scourge.
After all, compared with Hollywood's complete film and television peripheral income system, the profit channels of Chinese-language films are inherently single.

In this way, giving up the method of placing advertisements because of mental cleanliness is tantamount to cutting off one's own arm.

Because only the lower the proportion of the box office share in the total profit of the movie, the stronger the producer's ability to resist risks will be.

Only in this way can we be more confident in investing in some relatively risky film projects, such as science fiction films, animation films and the like.

……

In other words, the film "BJ Meets Seattle" mainly tells the love adventure story between the "gold digger" Wen Jiajia who came to Seattle alone to give birth and Frank, the driver of the confinement center.

Therefore, before the movie starts, Gao Yuanyuan and Gao Fei, who are the leading actors and actresses, must receive certain training.

Gao Yuanyuan is fine, she just needs to learn how to walk like a pregnant woman while worshiping money and being beautiful.

But Gao Fei's problem is a bit troublesome.

Because although Frank appears to be the driver of the confinement center in Seattle, he looks dull and honest, but in fact he was a first-class surgeon in China.

It was only because his wife was busy with her career and her daughter was difficult to discipline that she quit her job and immigrated overseas to take care of the family.

But Frank didn't expect that he came overseas, but his family was gone.

Even though he made great sacrifices for the family, his wife Julie eventually divorced him.

This is why he and Wen Jiajia were so downcast when they first met.

So Gao Fei now faces two problems.

One is to put away his vigor and not be so full of vitality.

Although this is more troublesome, it is not difficult for Gao Fei.

But another point is more troublesome.

That is Xue Xiaolu asking Gao Fei to learn how to be a father—an excellent father!
In her words, Gao Fei must inspire the "fatherly" nature in his body, so that the things he shoots will be more convincing!

I have to say that directors of literary films are troublesome.

A female director who has made a literary film is even more troublesome!

But no matter how Gao Fei explained, Xue Xiaolu still kept the same rhetoric, that is, some things cannot be acted out.

Those who have never been fathers and mothers will never understand the wonderful chemical reaction!

Faced with such a stubborn Xue Xiaolu, Gao Fei has no choice but to do as she wishes.

So the question facing Gao Fei now is, how can he become an excellent father in the shortest possible time?
……

"How about we have a baby?"

The next day, in the crew meeting room.

Gao Fei, who was having a headache because of Xue Xiaolu's request, suddenly said to Gao Yuanyuan beside him.

As soon as this remark came out, Gao Yuanyuan's head froze and her face was bewildered.

But after he came back to his senses, his cheeks immediately flushed red, and he gave Bai Gaofei a coquettish look, his milk fierce.

Seeing this situation, Gao Fei's mood improved a lot.

Sure enough, molesting beautiful women is always the best way to adjust your mood!

Hundreds of tests and larks, who knows who uses it!

Speaking of which, today's meeting is actually a script reading organized by Xue Xiaolu.

There is nothing wrong with flying high.

After all, he and Gao Yuanyuan acted as a pair of lovers in the film. Now that they meet earlier, they can cultivate their relationship earlier.

It's just that I didn't expect that after meeting, I encountered a rather embarrassing thing.

That is, Gao Fei called her Teacher Gao, and when Gao Yuanyuan saw Gao Fei, she also called her Teacher Gao.

The result is that the person who called it felt weird, and the person who heard it felt awkward.

Because there are indeed not many celebrities with the surname Gao in the domestic entertainment industry, the famous ones are Gao Yuanyuan and Gao Fei besides being short and tight.

Therefore, Gao Yuanyuan has never encountered such a situation on weekdays.

But after regaining her senses, Gao Yuanyuan stroked her hair casually, and said with a hearty smile:

"No, I can't afford to be called a teacher in front of you, you should call me Yuanyuan!"

"Okay, then you can call me A Fei or Brother Fei!"

Seeing that the two had chatted so quickly, Han Li behind Gao Fei couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

She knew that no woman could withstand the boss's methods of picking up girls.

Thinking of this, Han Li suddenly felt sorry for Gao Yuanyuan.

But Gao Yuanyuan obviously doesn't need Han Li's pity at this moment.

Otherwise, after being molested by Gao Fei, he would still chat and laugh with him.

I don't know if Xue Xiaolu can't understand Gao Fei flirting with beautiful women.

Just when Gao Fei and Gao Yuanyuan were chatting about the romantic affairs of the literati in the Song Dynasty, and endured the beauties frequently coquettishly, they saw Xue Xiaolu throwing a bomb at him... err, it was stuffed with a child!

So looking at the little kid with a pacifier in his arms, Gao Fei was dumbfounded.

Not to mention Gao Fei, even Gao Yuanyuan who was on the side couldn't help closing her mouth in shock.

"Director Xue, what... what does this mean?"

After Gao Fei was stunned for a moment, he immediately looked at Xue Xiaolu in surprise.

I don't want Xue Xiaolu to hear the words, but she is quite proud and said with a smile:
"Aren't you having a headache about how to be a father? I'll help you!"

In other words, since Xue Xiaolu made such a request to Gao Fei, she naturally considered various situations.

So long before the script reading began, she privately asked her friends to find a baby.

And the one in Gao Fei's hand is the "treasure" she finally found.

This little guy whose nickname is "Yuan Bao" and his parents are both migrant workers in the capital, so they don't have much time to take care of him on weekdays.

Even most of the time, Xiao Yuanbao sits in his father's takeaway box, like a little piggy, walking around the streets and alleys with his father, running around here and there.

It is precisely because of this reason that the little guy has been courageous since he was a child, even a little heartless, and smiled when he saw strangers.

This is also the reason why Xue Xiaolu took a fancy to him in the end.

After all, she also knows that for a novice dad like Gao Fei, if the child is too difficult to deal with, then the father's love will probably never be aroused.

That's why she thought about choosing a fierce and "cute" child, so as to calm down Gao Fei.

And the subsequent development of things did not meet Xue Xiaolu's expectations.

After all, who can say no to a baby who keeps smiling at you?
I saw that although Gao Fei was a little caught off guard by the appearance of Xiao Yuanbao, he even resisted it at first.

But after looking into the pure eyes of the little guy for a moment, he was defeated by the happy laughter of the little Yuanbao.

Gao Fei didn't know why the little guy suddenly smiled when he looked at him.

He even seriously suspected that this little guy was acting cute on purpose!

But there is no way, who makes human beings always irresistible to cute things.

So after teasing the little guy clumsily and stiffly with both hands, Gao Fei said curiously:
"Can he talk?"

Seeing this situation, Xue Xiaolu knew that her plan had succeeded, so she immediately raised her lips and said:
"Children usually don't speak until they are one year old. Little Yuanbao is only in October, so it's still early!"

But then again, if it is not forced by life, and Xue Xiaolu has the public welfare film "Ocean Paradise" as proof.

Xiao Yuanbao's father would not really be willing to give the child to Xue Xiaolu, after all, he is only 10 months old.

Of course, the most important thing is that Xue Xiaolu promised to give him a sum of money.

Although these words sound a bit cold-blooded, even a bit like selling his son.

But there is no way, he needs money, and the growth of Xiao Yuanbao needs money even more!

And poor people are not qualified to pay attention to moral cleanliness, let alone criticize them harshly.

Hearing this, Gao Fei fell silent.

Gao Yuanyuan who was on the side heard the words, couldn't help nodding Xiao Yuanbao's chubby face affectionately, and said with distress:
"Little guy, you are so pitiful. You are only 10 months old and you are going out to earn milk powder money for yourself."

As a result, Gao Fei and Xue Xiaolu couldn't help laughing when they said this.

Not to mention, Xiao Yuanbao is probably the youngest child laborer at present.

But no matter how you say it, inspired by Xiao Yuanbao's pink and cute smile, Gao Fei, a novice dad, is finally on his way...
