8 Hong Kong, here we come

Eight Hong Kong, here we come

After the dinner, these boys left one by one with good expectations, and they felt that they should get ready.

Since Fan Nu was going to lead the battle, he stayed.He will continue to discuss with Tan Jiabao their first film, which is also the first film directed by Fan Nu.

Fan Nu said with a smile: "Boss, you arranged for me to work in a film company. During the time I was in the film company, I knew that this movie was really profitable. Hong Kong movies can be shot in ten days. These directors and actors seem to have grown up drinking molten iron, and they are all working like hell. I found out that most Hong Kong films except Shaw Brothers films now only need to invest tens of thousands to 10,000+ yuan. But the box office revenue can reach 10,000+, or even hundreds of thousands. The profit is so huge.”

"Actually, the profits of movies are not big. After excluding theaters and production costs, it is not bad if the profits of a movie can reach [-]%. But movies are one of the industries with the fastest income." Tan Jiabao has long been aware of the movie industry. Studying, he said to Fan Nu: "Oh, by the way, how did Jia Ning and Shao Qiang perform in terms of acting?"

When Tan Jianing and Tan Shaoqiang heard that they were mentioned suddenly, the two of them immediately lowered their heads to eat.

Fan Nu nodded and said, "They're all good. They can endure hardships and are very obedient. But Jianing can't speak Cantonese, and Shaoqiang's Cantonese is much better."

Tan Jiabao nodded.

When they were in mainland China, Tan Jiabao taught them to speak Cantonese, but the effect was quite different.He found that Jianing was indeed not as strong as Shao Shao in language learning.He knew that one had to be talented in learning a language. Let’s take a few adults as an example. Zheng Dashi is the most diligent one. No matter where he is, he always has an English vocabulary book in his pocket.Whenever he has time, he recites words and learns English.Chen Lijun, who was learning English at the same time as him, was not as diligent as Zheng Dashi, but his spoken English was much better than Zheng Dashi.This made Zheng Dashi quite annoyed.

Tan Jiabao said softly: "Jia Ning and Shao Qiang, you both need to work harder. The master also expects you to earn the travel expenses for the master to the United States. Don't worry about learning the language. Learn more and speak more, and it will come naturally. learned."

Tan Jianing and Tan Shaoqiang nodded their heads and said "Yes".Tan Jianing still lowered his head, but Tan Shaoqiang raised his head and said confidently: "Master, how much money can we earn as a supporting role for others? It will be different if we play the leading role. I heard that some celebrities make a lot of money, Feng Baobao I have bought several houses. Master, when will our filming of "The Laughing Forest Boy" start?"

Tan Jiabao had given them two scripts more than a month ago.For this movie, both children are very interested.During this period of more than a month, they have basically memorized all the lines in it, but Jia Ning's Cantonese is really bad, and they are under a lot of pressure.

"You want to be the protagonist so soon? Do you want to be a child star like Feng Baobao? Are you confident now?" Tan Jiabao said to Shaoqiang with a smile.

Tan Shaoqiang said confidently: "Yes, if the master starts filming "Smiley Lin Boy" now, I won't be afraid anymore. I think I can play that naughty little villain well!"

Tan Jiabao patted Tan Shaoqiang on the shoulder in relief. He liked the confidence of this apprentice.

"My answer just now was to take care of the brothers' confidence. In fact, during the time I was at Shaw Brothers, I shot movies with them, and found that movies were not so easy to shoot. Although I have learned some film knowledge, but After all, I have never had such close contact with movies. There is still a big gap between reality and reality. Boss, the more I think about it now, the less confident I am." Fan Nu said worriedly.

"Master, I can't do it either. I...my Cantonese is terrible..." Tan Jianing also said with a sad face.

Fan Nu and Tan Jianing both had sullen faces, but their expressions were different.

Tan Jiabao looked at the three of them and smiled: "You, Fan Nu, were full of confidence just now, why have you become so cautious all of a sudden? Take care of the confidence of the brothers? Are you also taking care of my confidence? Since you That being said, let me think again about the director, if you really can’t do it, let’s hire one. As for the Cantonese, we can find someone to dub it, or just make this movie into Mandarin.”

"no!"

"no!"

Unexpectedly, Fan Nu and Tan Jianing, one big and one small, objected in unison. Fan Nu said: "Boss, I just want to reveal my true thoughts in front of you, but I know that many things are never familiar. Everyone has a lot of firsts, don't they?"

"Master, I will work hard, I don't want to lose this opportunity!" Although Tan Jianing was young, he still learned many of Tan Jiabao's qualities.

Tan Jiabao laughed, and then talked with them about the script for a while, and then began to tell Fan Nu about the operation method of the filming of the film and the strategies for negotiation.After listening to this, Fan Nu pondered for a while and said: "This method is feasible. If I were that small and medium-sized film company, I would also agree. Basically, they don't have to take much risk. It's just the other two leading actresses you promised. Where are you going to find it?"

Tan Jiabao smiled and said: "They are not movie actors yet, but they all like movies. How to persuade them is up to you. Hehe, fooling people is your strong point, let alone two who are dreaming of being stars Two beautiful girls, can this trouble you too?"

"Uh, are you complimenting me or scolding me? But it's really as good as what you said, so it doesn't matter if I try it. Also, I thought of a small film company. The artist of my first film was in their The company did it." Fan Nu was a little excited, although he had been in the industry for less than a month, he knew the benefits of being a director.

Tan Jiabao said: "Small company? How small? Can they make this movie?"

Fan Nu thought for a while and said: "This film company is called 'Xu's Film Company'. This company is not big, but it is not small. In terms of production, they are like a small company like a family workshop. The manager is called Xu Shaofa, the company's affairs are taken care of by their own family members. I heard that sometimes there are not enough actors, so the members of their family will do it by themselves. However, their venue is not small. In addition to their old-fashioned courtyard, there is actually another one in Yuen Long Small studio. Also, they mainly produce Cantonese films now, and now they also shoot Mandarin films. Xu Shaofa is very popular, he has friendship with Shaw Brothers and MP & GI, and has a set of relationships in distribution, Taiwan and Nanyang. They are very familiar. Also, he doesn't have the air of a boss, and he talks and laughs with the tricks."

Tan Jiabao nodded and said: "Yes! We need such a company. The cooperation between us is a win-win situation! I hope that the filming of this film will be finished within 15 days, and the post-production will not exceed three days. In this way, you, as the screenwriter, Director, leading actor and artist, I believe that after the filming is over, you will fall apart again. So we also ask them to send one or two experienced assistant directors to assist you."

Fan Nu loved movies since she was a child.In the past few months, he has basically understood the filming process and seen how several directors work.Although he has never been a director, he likes to try new things.He knows that this time is also an opportunity for him, and he feels that he must go all out to meet this challenge.So he said: "Boss, without delay, why don't we visit Boss Xu right away. I heard that they have a movie called "Hero Qiao Feng" that started filming last year, and they are going to start work today."

"Heroes Qiao Feng? Filming at night?"

"Yes, I'm going to shoot a few 'night scenes' today. I'm also very interested in this movie. I know that this movie is based on the story in Mr. Jin Yong's "Dragon Babu". Hehe, this Joe Feng’s characters are so vivid and fascinating. When I read the original book, and when I read this passage about Qiao Feng, I felt my blood surging, thinking that men should be like this.”

"Are you already reading Jin Yong's novels?"

"Yes, in the past six months, apart from reading your works, I have only read Jin Yong and Gu Long's martial arts novels. I have read this "Dragon Babu" twice. Didn't you say that, As a film and television company in Hong Kong, the two masterpieces of Jin Yong and Gu Long cannot be avoided, so I must be familiar with them."

Tan Jiabao gave Fan Nu an appreciative glance and said, "Lao Fan, do it well. I think we will soon be able to have our own film company, but we have to work hard from now on. Let's go now! We all go."

After a pause, Tan Jiabao stood up, and he sternly shouted out the window, like a formal announcement: "Hong Kong, we are coming! World, we are coming!"
