Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

"Hahaha!"

"Wouldn't it be better to make more other movies?" Gu Ming smiled, "You are already so old, how old can you be? Can you shoot until you are seventy?"

"You are an old comrade in your fifties, so you should stop fighting and killing."

"Then I'll have to watch a movie." Li Lianjie raised his eyebrows, "Maybe I will directly switch to acting, and then I will go to the three majors or something."

"support!"

Giving a thumbs up to Li Lianjie, Gu Ming looked around and saw that the crew was all ready, so he waved his hand, "Start work!"

The background of "Interstellar" is that the entire planet is in a crisis. The entire world is covered with yellow sand, and wheat and other crops are extinct due to blight.

Corn has become the only food left.

The protagonist, a former space agency employee, works as a farmer at home.

Strange gravity fields have been discovered in daughter Murphy's home many times, and her daughter's books have even fallen down, and the empty bookshelf seems to be a Morse code.

Put together, it’s stay!

A matter that makes the protagonist feel that there is no beginning or end.

After a sandstorm, in daughter Murphy's room, the sand formed a regular pattern on the ground, which refers to a coordinate.

It took more than half a month to finish shooting the scenes here.

Gu Ming smiled and raised his hand, and with everyone's smiling eyes commenting, he shouted loudly, "We're done!"

"Go back to the capital and have a good time together. I'll treat you."

Everyone cheered.

Guo Fan was the first to calm down and walked to Huang Ze with a melancholy look on his face. "I think this film, just by imagining it, can make the audience feel when they see the ending and know why the books on the bookshelf fell."

"If "Gravity" is an excellent science fiction film."

"This film, I think, is going to be epic!"

"Director Gu, you have made me lose confidence in "The Wandering Earth"."

"Then have confidence in it." Gu Ming smiled and patted Guo Fan's arm, "It's not just spiritual settings, but also family ties that are epic. Sacrifice, sacrifice for all mankind, can also be epic. "

"If "The Wandering Earth" is filmed well, it won't be bad!"

"Also, let's use Wu Jing as the protagonist." He acted in this film in his previous life, and he once called himself and asked himself, the producer, to attend the premiere of his "Wolf Warrior". The filming of "Interstellar" was relatively far away, so I turned it down. I considered this role a small compensation.

"Wu Jing?" Guo Fan thought for a moment before answering.

At the beginning, he looked like a young boy. Later, he went to Hong Kong to hang out, but he didn't get mixed up, so he returned to the mainland. But it didn't become a big hit. He directly made a movie with the investment of Daystar, which did well at the box office. With 600 million, it's quite a bit popular.

Think again about what he looks like.

Guo Fan immediately agreed, "Okay!"

Inexpensive and well-known.

Just right.

He is really worried about his ability to control actors who are too big for him.

Although he has Gu Ming's endorsement, after all, he has only filmed a few youth romance movies, and his qualifications are not enough after all!

You can't just go to Gu Ming if anything happens, right? That will make you look down upon even more.

"Well, get ready to start your new film. First draw a rough shot. After I read it, I can start raising funds for you."

"I've finished drawing the storyboards a long time ago, and I haven't even taken them yet. I'll show them to you when I return to the capital."

"can!"

……

After returning to the capital, Gu Ming put aside the matter of "Interstellar" for the time being.

First I watched Guo Fan’s footage. After confirming that there was no problem, I asked the company to start the "Wandering Earth" project.

Cost of $100 million!

In the previous life, there were only 500 million, and the actors were often asked to bring their own funds to join the group, otherwise they would have to pay less.

There is no need for that in this life.

Give as much as you need, and the money you save will be divided later.

Of course, even if the film is paid according to the market price, the cost of this film will be much higher than in the previous life.

What Gu Ming wants is for Guo Fan to create a more sophisticated "The Wandering Earth".

but.

Tomorrow or the accident, you never know which one will come first.

After dividing this project according to the previous practice, everyone was not very enthusiastic.

An investment amount with a premium of 60% is not something that many people can do to save face.

Only 50% was thrown out in total.

Twenty percent of them were won by China Film.

Originally, the other party was also restrained and accounted for 10% like other films.

I heard that "The Wandering Earth" was not easy to sell, so Han Sanpin came over and added another ten percent.

"How about it, do you need me to increase my share?" Han Sanpin said with a smile, "Looking at you making such a big scene, I can't let you be sorry if you make a retirement farewell film for me!"

"No need." Gu Ming shook his head.

"It's not impossible for Daystar to account for half of it."

"Since they don't have that vision, if they want to invest next time, don't blame me for exorbitant premium!"

"This film doesn't look like it's going to be profitable!" Han Sanpin rubbed his nose, "You said you're going too far, letting a director who makes youth romance movies directly start a science fiction production worth 100 million US dollars."

"Who is not confused?"

"Guo Fan has no influence abroad, and this film is almost purely a Chinese film, so the overseas box office is a mystery."

"They bought it at a 60 percent premium."

"That means that "The Wandering Earth" has to sell 2.4 billion at the domestic box office to make money back."

"Better than your Gravity."

"Then why did you invest so much?" Gu Ming asked with a smile.

"My premium is not much!" Han Sanpin shrugged, "Besides, we at China Film Group have a greater responsibility. This kind of heavy industry science fiction must be supported!"

"What's more, if I don't support it, if you move "Interstellar" to be released in 15, it will no longer be a retirement gift for me. Instead, it will be Xiaola's appointment gift. How dare I not support you?"

"By the way, can it be broadcast next year?"

"No problem, I guess I can make it in time for the summer season."

"That's good." Han Sanpin nodded, "I will transfer the first-release Hollywood blockbusters to you as soon as possible so that you can make enough money."

"Strive to break through three billion!"

"Then I'd better wait for one to five years." Gu Ming said with a look of despair, "If you delay it for one year, the probability of breaking 3 billion is greater."

"Then 2.5 billion."

"Just do your best." Gu Ming made a wry smile, "I believe in the quality, but some people will definitely find it complicated. In addition, the length of the film is also an issue. It is almost twice as long as "Gravity". It will definitely be difficult to film in theaters. I prefer shorter films.”

"It's not up to them." Han Sanpin waved his hand, "I fully support you. Whoever makes "Interstellar" unhappy, I will make anyone unhappy. They are all people who are about to retire anyway." (End of Chapter)
