Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

The vertical line of four people is just the beginning.

When other people appear, especially people of different classes, the vertical lines will also appear, and may even follow them, representing the ever-present boundary between the poor and the rich.

A drunkard peed outside a family's window, and some cowardly fathers did not dare to intervene.

At this time, it was Gu Ming's turn to appear.

Gu Ming had to play a role in every movie he directed, so this time he just played a relatively small role. In the original film, he introduced a job to the son of a poor family, a classmate whose family situation was not bad.

"Remember, when you take pictures, you have to use the vertical lines of the frame to separate me from the drunkard."

He ordered Cao Yu to see what was happening outside from the basement, from the perspective of a family.

In fact, it was nothing. It was just that my son’s classmate, who was from a good background, reprimanded the drunkard and did something that the whole family wanted to do but did not dare to do.

Then go through the door.

In order to remain polite, Gu Ming's character deliberately took off his shoes.

Before taking two steps, he raised his feet and looked at the soles of his feet.

This action is a hint, hinting at the character's psychology at this time.

I was afraid that I would dirty your floor, so I took off my shoes and came in. But your floor was actually dirtier than the soles of my shoes?

This classmate wanted to go abroad and could no longer hold a job, so he handed it over to Jiyu, the poor man's son.

Instead of being a tutor for a rich female student.

The two were discussing the incident at a food stall outside.

"Cao Yu, push this shot forward to deform my face and make it look uglier."

"Director Gu, you are so tough on others!" Cao Yu said jokingly, "You are so handsome, so it's not that difficult for me to take pictures of you ugly!"

"Cut the nonsense and try not to be so handsome."

This section was filmed nearly ten times.

Gu Mingcai nodded with satisfaction, "He's not so handsome this time."

"Director Gu, why do you have to be uglier in the photo?" After the filming, Song Tie was a little curious and mustered up the courage to ask.

"Because the motives are not pure!"

"Why do you have to give this job to Jiyu?"

"It's because he feels that his student will definitely look down on Jiyu, so it is safest to let Jiyu teach that student."

After filming this section, a group of people immediately moved to Victoria Peak, a famous gathering place for wealthy people on Hong Kong Island.

As Gu Ming, the great international director and the richest man in the Mainland, and with Yang Shoucheng's network of contacts, he rented a villa with a suitable location and size here.

The other party even agreed to make some minor modifications to better fit the various vertical lines needed for the film.

And this vertical line will always exist when Ki-woo communicates with the rich lady during the interview and teaches the rich girl to study.

When one person is on the same side, there won't be any transcendence for too long.

Except that Ki-woo and the rich girl developed feelings and had a violent tongue flick on each other's lips.

……

The filming of this literary and artistic film is different from other artistic films that Gu Ming has shot before. It was all shot in real locations, and there were also special effects, and there were quite a lot of them.

In order to satisfy my own shooting concept, unless I rebuild a villa according to Li Ming's design, even if I find one that can be seen, it is still not enough.

Of course, it's not as good as the previous version where more than 40% of the shots were special effects, but nearly one-fifth of the shots were prepared to be completed in front of a green screen.

This adds a lot of work.

As a result, it was not until December 16th that the film was finally completed successfully.

"It's done!"

"Don't leave, everyone! Let's have a nice meal together tonight."

The cost was more than 23 million U.S. dollars, and thanks to his own fame, he raised nearly 5 million U.S. dollars in advertising fees.

There is still a lot of money left for this project.

Gu Ming decided to be generous.

"Haha, you'll have to eat a lot!"

Liang Jiahui walked over with a smile. "Director Gu, to be honest, I have a feeling that this film is no less than that "Shoplifters"!"

"It even feels like it has more dramatic conflict than that one, and it's a little easier to understand."

"This "Parasite" is more commercial." Gu Ming smiled and nodded.

Many people have compared these two movies in previous lives.

"In comparison, 'Parasite' is indeed more of a commercial drama than an art film."

"But I think this drama is better than many art films!" Liang Jiahui said with a smile, "I believe it can also win one of the three highest awards."

"Then I'll lend you a good word. If you can really get my fourth top three, I'll treat you to dinner."

"It's a deal!" Liang Jiahui and Gu Ming fist bumped.

……

After dinner in the evening, he told the crew to return to the capital with the film, while Gu Ming went to Los Angeles again.

This time it's not a showdown.

Instead, he attended the premiere of his own film.

Due to its own reasons, this "007: Casino Royale" was released later than in its previous life, and was finally moved to the Christmas schedule by Sony Columbia.

On Monday, the 17th, all venues were screened.

Gu Ming also had to sigh with emotion, he is worthy of being "007"!

The gimmick is enough.

You know, this is the Christmas season.

The family movie "Night at the Museum" planned to be released on the 21st by Beidou Star Entertainment has an investment of more than million. The protagonist is considered to be the best in the field of comedy, but it only has to go to venues.

This is the gap!

However, Gu Ming didn't care too much.

One is a film directed by myself, and the other is a film produced by myself.

The palms and backs of my hands are full of flesh!

Besides, regardless of the fact that "Night at the Museum" opened in less venues than "007", if you really look at the final box office, it might beat "007" by a lot.

No problem, family fun + Christmas stalls are a perfect match.

……

Los Angeles.

Gu Ming got off the plane and went straight to the mansion in Beverly Hills.

Haven't had much rest yet.

Two people visited me one after another.

One is Li Bingbing. She is here to promote with the crew. After learning that Gu Ming came to Los Angeles, she took a leave and came to Gu Ming's residence.

If you want to come to a terrace near the water, you have to go first.

Of course, the main reason why she took such initiative was that she was shocked.

The movie "Super Body" starring Jin Suo had a domestic box office of 1.5 million US dollars, and the box office in North America actually exceeded million US dollars.

That’s over 100 million in North American box office!

The heroine movie has a box office of over 100 million in North America!

She knows better than anyone the box-office appeal of her "best friend" Jin Suo, who is even lower than herself.

To be able to produce such a movie with a female protagonist that exploded at the box office.

Suddenly his status soared.

In Hollywood, it can be considered that there is such an acre of land.

Not to mention in China, after every press release comes out, she is almost touted as the number one actress in China.

This made Li Bingbing feel a lot of pressure. (End of chapter)
