Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

Chapter 102
"Hey!"

The smile on Han Sanpin's face couldn't be stopped, it was squeezed out.

"My pleasure."

"What if you could give me the entire grand prize at each of the three major film festivals, and I would come and pick it up every time?"

"Once in February, once in May, and once in September."

"Just think of it as a holiday for yourself."

How could he not be happy to have won three major awards and still have a film invested by China Film Group?

He is even happy as long as a film that has been reviewed honestly and then submitted for review wins an award.

No matter how you say it, these are all honors received by Chinese-language films.

It can also be counted as part of his political achievements.

"By the way, how is your film that was nominated for the Olympics?" Han Sanpin put away his smile and said seriously.

"After shooting, come back and take a rest before doing post-production."

"How is it, are you sure?"

Gu Ming didn't speak, just stared at Han Sanpin.

it is more than words.

Han Sanpin was entertained.

"I know that it is difficult for our country's directors to reach the three OBEs."

"It's you who doesn't care."

"You haven't created enough miracles again and again. I think you can create another miracle."

"Do your best."

Gu Ming didn't think there would be such a big event in September this year, so he was sure he would win the prize.

There are so many judges, and it is difficult to get a large number of them to choose you.

"Come on, if you can really win a prize, no matter how small it is, I'll treat you!" Han Sanpin patted Gu Ming's arm and made a promise.

"Okay, I remember your words."

After chatting with Han Sanpin for a while, Gu Ming walked away and took out his cell phone to make a call to Yan Danchen who said he was coming to pick him up at the airport.

After confirming the location of the other car, I found the Santana and got in.

"You said it was true."

"Let me change a car for you. What age are you in? You still drive a Santana."

"I like it!" Yan Danchen frowned and looked at Gu Ming, "I bought this with the money I saved. No matter how broken it is, it doesn't mean the same thing."

"And it's dangerous to drive such a conspicuous car."

"Don't get caught."

"Some people just watch and kidnap people who drive nice cars."

"What you said makes sense!" Gu Ming smacked his lips, thinking of a later movie based on a true story.

It tells about a celebrity who was targeted by kidnappers because of his car and was kidnapped.

Fortunately, the rescue was quick enough, otherwise it would have been a disaster.

"How about I assign you some female bodyguards?" After thinking about this, Gu Ming really felt that it was a little unsafe and suggested.

"Forget it, there are real bodyguards, no matter how powerful they are, they are not worthy of a gun. If the other party has a gun, what use is it? Do you still have to watch your employer being killed?"

"Let's get two." Gu Ming suggested again.

"It's really not necessary. I usually work at school and at home. I don't think it will be of much use if I have one."

"No, I don't want you to feel it, I want me to feel it." The other party insisted, and Gu Ming insisted even more. He had the right to speak.

Although if this thing really comes, it won't be able to stop it, so what can my two bodyguards do?Meeting a caring person is not just a matter of two bullets. "

The former prime minister with an open heart and neon mind, and the Melaleuca with an open mind can't stand it.

Can you withstand it yourself?
But something is better than nothing.

"Okay, it's such a happy decision."

Gu Ming reached out and touched the driver.

"Hey, it's been more than a month, and I'm almost a monk."

"Really?"

Yan Danchen gave Gu Ming a look and continued driving.

"I heard that the red sofa in Hollywood is doing a great job!"

"Marilyn Monroe once said it herself, I don't know how many times she pulled away..."

"Hollywood movies are more profitable in this era, so they won't get better, right?"

"You are the director, producer and screenwriter, so you have all the power!"

With that said, Yan Danchen held the gear handle and shifted the gear.

"Didn't you get a red sofa?"

"You know me, I'm a good person!" Gu Ming smiled and shrugged, "Do I look like a scumbag?"

"Look who I have had an affair with."

"That's not true." Yan Danchen vaguely felt that as a director and a famous director, it was impossible for Gu Ming to be so honest.

Look at the big directors in China.

Hey, not to mention the great director, even the assistant director, they all seem to have a lot of fun.

But in the absence of evidence, how can someone be innocent out of thin air?
And even if there's someone else behind his back, it's not unacceptable as long as he doesn't know about it for the rest of his life.

Taking a deep breath, Yan Danchen concentrated on driving.

After returning home, the two couldn't wait to play Tetris.

A very old game.

Just put it in when you have time, and then you can eliminate a column.

As the falling blocks get faster and faster.

The entire screen is filled with blocks and the game is over.

……

"How many days will you stay in China this time?" Yan Danchen asked.

"Just a week. After arranging the next development of the company, I have to go to the United States to do the post-production of the film."

"I will definitely come back before August! Two months will definitely be enough."

Gu Ming made a promise.the reason is simple.

In the two months of August and September, Gu Ming does not plan to take any flights to the United States.

Until that happens.

Otherwise, what if someone thinks that day is unlucky and starts the operation in advance?
Gu Ming didn't want to try his luck when it came to transportation.

Thinking about the car accident in the previous life, I also know that my luck is very average.

Still be careful sailing for thousands of years.

"Then I want you to go out and never have a red sofa again."

"I told you, I'm not that kind of person!" Gu Ming would not fall for such a trick. He once again emphasized his identity as an honest and trustworthy young man, a clean and handsome director.

……

For the next two days, Gu Ming stayed at home.

In addition to plowing the land, I just need to write the outlines of "Gun Hunt" and "Taken 2" first.

It wasn't until I couldn't bear it anymore that I came to Daystar Company.

Sitting on the chair in the office, I started to get down to business.

The first thing is to find fellow countryman Diao Yinan.

This matter is easy to handle.

He came from a Chinese drama, and with Gu Ming's connections, he soon got the news that he had a movie he wanted to direct, and if he was willing to come to Daystar to find him.

Then Diao Yinan, who was more than ten years older than Gu Ming, came to Daystar with trepidation.

Diao Yinan has long hair, a bit unconventional, and wears some old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses.

But the terracotta warrior-like face still looks quite appropriate.

It's the temperament...

I don’t know why, but I feel a bit like Riku Taro.

But this shows that he is suitable for "Looking for a Gun"!

"Take a seat." Gu Ming asked Diao Yinan to sit down without being too polite, "He said bluntly, there is a small investment of 300 to [-] million yuan for you to be a director. Do you want to give it a try?"

"I……"

Diao Yinan swallowed excitedly. "I want to give it a try."

The opportunity is too rare.

How many directing graduates have been working hard for more than ten years without even getting a chance to be a director.

Not to mention that I am a Chinese drama graduate with a literature major.

It’s rare to have the opportunity.

What's more, a film with an investment of 300 to [-] million yuan is a small investment in Gu Ming's eyes, but in his eyes, it is definitely considered a big production.

"Don't be anxious. I'll tell you everything. Let's put villains first and then be gentlemen."

"First, you have to sign a film contract with Daystar, a film contract for five movies."

"Second, the starring role in this film is Jiang Wen."

"Work with Jiang Wen!" Diao Yinan almost stood up in excitement, but as soon as he raised his butt halfway, he realized that he had made a big mistake.

He is the director himself, and the starring role is the great director Jiang Wen.

How is this cooperation with Jiang Wen?
It was obviously cooperated by Jiang Wen.

When the time comes, I will definitely be the passive one, being rubbed by the lead actor on the set.

"Who do you listen to when filming?" Diao Yinan asked.

"It's up to you." Gu Ming spread his hands. If you can suppress Jiang Wen, of course you have to listen to you as the director. It depends on whether you have this ability.

"I'll study more with Director Jiang." Diao Yinan thought for a moment, then made a choice and accepted.

For other directors, working with Jiang Wen is not a good thing.

But for a newcomer like me, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

You can gain fame and learn something at the same time, killing two birds with one stone!
"It's a pleasure to work together." Gu Ming smiled and extended his hand, "Jiang Wen is still quite good. After filming this movie, you can find the script for the next movie, and we, Venus, will be responsible for the investment."

"Thank you, Director Gu." Diao Yinan smiled shyly and made a request, "If possible, after the filming, can I join your team as an assistant director?"

"Why?" Gu Ming asked.

"I want to learn from you."

"I really liked your movie "Fireworks in the Day". I watched it over and over again more than ten times. I think that is the goal of my study."

"That's it!" Gu Ming's lips curled up slightly, and he soon returned to normal, "No problem, when you finish filming "Looking for a Gun", I will definitely ask you to be the assistant director."

"Well, you and Jiang Wen should find someone to come up with the script first." Gu Ming also handed the outline to the other party, "This is my idea. You can use it if you think it can be used. You don't need to consider my ideas. "

"Thank you, Director Gu."

Diao Yinan took the outline and walked out.

Gu Ming picked up the phone and dialed Li Xiaoping.

This film had an investment of more than 200 million yuan in its previous life.

Considering that Jiang Wen was filming it, Gu Ming asked Li Xiaoping to give "Looking for a Gun" a budget of 200 million.

In any case, the budget must be exceeded. If it is not exceeded, Jiang Wen will be able to do it all if you give him 1000 million, and then ask for an increase in the budget.

In this case, why not give him a low budget to make him feel confident that he can't exceed 400 million, right?
An investment that doubles your budget?

Cameron is the only one who can do this.

The budget was 7500 million, and the work reached [-] million.

If it wasn't a hit, Fox would have to sell its pants.

After repeatedly asking the producer sent over several times to keep an eye on Jiang Wen and not let him let himself go, Gu Ming put down the phone.

Not long.

There was a knock on the office door.

It was a familiar voice, "Director Gu?"

"Please come in."

Li Bingbing walked in.

Ever since she changed her makeup for that audition for "Taken", his makeup has remained the same as it was at that time, and it looks much more pleasing to the eye than before.

"Director Gu, I have something to ask you for help."
