Super entertainment red envelope

Chapter 697

"I've already thought about it!"

Fang Xiao smiled and said, "Do you know what my dream has been for many years? Do you know why I bought so many entertainment companies in Hollywood?"

"Why?" Li Zhifan thought to himself: This old boy doesn't mean he wants to enter the entertainment industry and become a movie star, right?
"because I like it!"

Fang Xiao took the lead directly.

"Uh... well!"

Li Zhifan was at a loss for words, so he asked after a pause, "Mr. Fang, what kind of film do you want to make?"

"Whatever you want, but I don't shoot beautiful women!"

Fang Xiao said, "That's too vulgar. I like playing football, playing games, writing calligraphy, and doing Tai Chi, etc., to cultivate one's morality and sentiment."

"Oh!"

Li Zhifan pondered for a while, and there was no movie in his mind, but he hadn't seen this movie, so he only remembered the name, so he said, "Well, give me a few days, and I'll write a book for you."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you!"

Fang Xiao said, "Don't delay for too long, just talk about what you need, money is not a problem, you can mention the reward as you like."

"Hey, help me, talk about remuneration!"

Li Zhifan smiled, this is a case of contacting people, money is not a problem for Fang Xiao or Li Zhifan.

After hanging up the phone, Li Zhifan entered WeChat, and searched for the title of the movie he thought of in the mall.

In less than 1 minute, the film was found - "Gong Shou Dao".

After purchasing, Li Zhifan watched the film first.

This film is really bad enough. Of course, Li Zhifan is not the original author, and he doesn't understand the original author's thoughts. Maybe he is the same as Zhu Tiancai, just for fun.

In fact, it didn't take a few days at all. Li Zhifan wrote the script the next afternoon.

And these two days the crew is still working normally.

The written script was sent to Fang Xiao, and he got a response within the same day.

"So fast?"

On the phone, Fang Xiao was extremely surprised, "It seems that I found the right person, haha, good! good! How long will it take to finish the filming?"

"If you find all the people, I'll find them for you in a week!" Li Zhifan said.

"I'm here to find someone. I read the list you mentioned, and I'll invite them one by one!"

Fang Xiao said, "By the way, there is also the matter of the theme song, look..."

"Have!"

Li Zhifan said with a smile, the original theme song just works, but Fang Xiao is not a professional after all, and he can't understand the score if he sends him the score, so he will listen to it after recording a demo.

"Well, good, that's good!" Fang Xiao said happily, "I believe in your strength."

"Has Fang always figured out who to sing with?" Li Zhifan asked.

"Chorus? Of course it's you!" Fang Xiao said directly, "Do I need to find someone else?"

"No no no!" Li Zhifan smiled, "You still want a female singer!"

"Female singer?" Fang Xiao said with a smile, "Your sister-in-law won't kill me? Let me think about it, well, I really admire Tian Zhenzhen, but I don't know if he ignores me."

"Teacher Tian?"

Li Zhifan clicked his tongue, "She sings the national mezzo-soprano, that's fine too, but don't you have any other female singers you like?"

"Others?"

Fang Xiao thought for a while, then suddenly smiled, "Eh? You said what would happen if I also asked Jiang Jingwen to sing as a chorus?"

"What's going to happen? That's like telling the people of the whole country that you've matched up with someone surnamed Zhu, right?"

Li Zhifan blurted out, paused for a while and continued, "But even if you don't look for it, making this kind of micro-movie is the right thing to do."

"Okay, then confront him, you wrote the song, it must be better than his song!"

Fang Xiao said, "Actually, Jiang Jingwen and I have a good relationship. We have known each other for more than ten years. We have played mahjong together, drank wine at the table, attended classes with a teacher, and went to KTV together for countless times. If we cooperate with her , I have no fear in my heart."

"That's good, Mr. Fang, you are in charge of the contact person. I'll organize the demo later and send it to you two!"

Li Zhifan agreed with all his heart. In fact, whether it is this micro movie or this song, according to the standard of art, there are some elements of deception, but it's up to you. Maybe it's a deception in the eyes of professionals, but in Fang Xiao's eyes, this is the right appetite For a dish that others say is not good, he will not do it.

……

The participating actors of the original version of "Gong Shou Dao" are all big names, and there are many international celebrities.

However, in the original version, there are also some whose names the audience cannot name. They may be well-known in other fields, but they are not familiar to the public.

This time, Li Zhifan planned to avoid these things completely, just like Zhu Tiancai's micro-movie, everyone knew more than [-] actresses, if Fang Xiao couldn't do this, he would lose his position.

Li Zhifan's theme song demo was submitted the next day.

The audio, lyrics and sheet music were sent to Fang Xiao, but Fang Xiao did not reply at that time.

Until the next day, Fang Xiao called again: "Sure! I listened to the song, it's very good, Xiao Li, you seem to live in my heart, you know what I want, hahaha! By the way, actor I have found them all, let me read the list, listen to it!"

Fang Xiao then began to read one by one.

Cheng Donghai, Li Xue, Yuan Zhun!
From the very beginning, there are three well-known international Chinese Kung Fu superstars.

Yuan Zhun is fine, he has been making movies these years, but Cheng Donghai and Li Xue have retired for several years, especially Li Xue, I heard that people are dying, lying in bed like a vegetable every day, just Because I played too hard when I was young, the protective gear at that time was not as advanced as it is now, and the shooting methods were not as high-tech as today, leaving scars all over my body.

And Cheng Donghai is over 17 years old. He is not only a kung fu superstar, but also one of the most influential stars among Chinese actors. Pave the way, the youngest is only [-] years old, and has already acted in many movies.

"Boss Fang, have you agreed to all three?"

Li Zhifan asked in disbelief, "Isn't Li Xue paralyzed? How did he shoot?"

"Who said he was paralyzed, but it's true that his body is failing, but it's okay to act in a play, as long as the movements are not too big!" Fang Xiao said with a smile, "My house in Singapore is next door to his house. I learned Tai Chi from him."

"Oh, as long as you can come and act!"

Li Zhifan smiled wryly, as for this matter, why don't you just be happy?
Then, Fang Xiao mentioned a few more people: Wu Likai, Zou Haijun, Fu Yumei, William Kate, Cartiers Tellos, Philippe Savy Arles, Abate...

These are all first-line and super-first-line, including the most important action stars in China and the United States, both male and female.

At the end, Fang Xiao said with a smile: "Well, my son also wants to play a role. Isn't there three policemen and a director in your script? Let's arrange one of them!"

"Okay, you have the final say!"

Li Zhifan has no intention of rebutting at all, as long as you are happy, you can do whatever you want!

But when it comes to these three policemen, Li Zhifan proposed to find a few domestic top-tier middle-aged and young male stars, the kind who don't know kung fu.

This is easier to handle, Fang Xiao readily agreed: "OK, I'll get in touch again."

Even though everyone on this list is above the first-line stars, they all have a good relationship with Fang Xiao, and they even say that Fang Xiao likes them, and there are some who are as important as them but are not invited. The only possibility is that Fang Xiao doesn't like this people.

After setting the tone, Fang Xiao urged the filming to start.

The filming location was in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Li Zhifan specially gave the crew of "Infernal Affairs" a week off to shoot this micro-movie.

When he arrived at the scene, Li Zhifan thought it was the awards ceremony.

Half a circle of celebrities came. Some of them didn't participate in the filming, or were not even invited. After learning the news, they took the initiative to come to watch Fang Xiao's filming.

The shooting team has been found, the best team in the entire Xiangshan film and television base.

Aside from a few live-action shots, there were a lot of green screen scenes, so the scope of the shoot wasn't huge.

As the protagonist, Fang Xiao is of course the most important one.

In the past, in a drama, the acting skills of the protagonist are very important, not only the actors themselves, but also the director will have strict requirements.

But this time it's completely different.

The participating actors were fooling around, and Li Zhifan was also fooling around.

Of course, there is a limit to fooling, but Fang Xiao's limit is not as strict as that of professional actors.

Especially during the fight, the actors in the opponent's scene were afraid of hurting Fang Xiao. When he was alone in front of the camera, he was full of power and acted very realistically, but when shooting two people fighting, he gave way to Fang Xiao everywhere.

So, in fact, it's not so easy to fool if you want to fool it, it's all acting skills!
Of course, Wu Zhi at the scene was also very busy. Not only did he have to design movements, but he even had to demonstrate with the camera behind his back, so that Fang Xiao could follow Wu Zhi to do the movements while shooting, just like elementary school students doing radio gymnastics.

After finishing the shooting on the first morning, Fang Xiao happily ran over to look at the material during the lunch break, and asked Li Zhifan, "How was it? How was the shooting today?"

"very good!"

Li Zhifan followed him and said, "Hasn't Fang always studied acting?"

"Yeah, for the sake of filming, I specially asked the professor of the show to study and guide me."

Fang Xiao was very proud. He felt that he was a very talented actor. Although there were a lot of NGs in the morning, the overall process went smoothly, and he completed all the filming announcements that he had made.

"No wonder!" Li Zhifan flattered, "Boss Fang, your acting skills can make your debut."

Fang Xiao was even happier: "Haha! I just want to join in the fun, and acting requires professional actors."

Other actors around also took the opportunity to flatter Fang Xiao. These people boasted that they were much better than Li Zhifan, and they praised Fang Xiao to the sky.

After the noon break, continue shooting in the afternoon.

Basically, after a rival scene is filmed, the actor is finished.

And those with the biggest cards must be shot first. After the shooting, you are willing to watch it on the spot, or go home early, it's up to you.

The ones with a smaller card face will have to wait, but there is no complaint.

……

Within two days, news of Fang Xiao's filming spread on the Internet.

At first, it was just a rumor from netizens, but later the Dongfang Group official blog directly issued an announcement, and exposed the name of the movie "Gong Shou Dao" and the participating actors.

Netizens were confused after seeing this lineup.

"My mother, any one of them has an appearance fee of over [-] million, especially those foreign stars, how did you invite them?"

"Old Fang is really capable. Although the number of people is not as large as Zhu Tianwen's, the combined row will overwhelm Zhu Tianwen!"

"Wow, Li Xue is also participating? Isn't he paralyzed?"

"Is it hemiplegia? I heard that he is still bedridden!"

"Haha, I probably know the plot. Judging from the title "Gong Shou Dao", it should be an action movie. Let's not talk about the length of the movie, let's just talk about the content. Have you seen the introduction? Played by Fang Xiao The story of the main character fighting masters all over the world. Then Li Xue, who is paralyzed, should play Fang Xiao's brother. Because his brother was beaten and disabled by various sects, so Fang Xiao wants to avenge his brother. Is this the reason? So Li Xue Even though he is bedridden, he can still act in it, because he is acting in bed scenes!"

"Sex... poof!"

"Haha, it's so comfortable to make money while lying down!"

"However, I think everyone should not have too much expectations. I guess the film will not be very good."

"That's right, it's almost the same as Zhu Tiancai's "Sweet Knowing"."

"Who is the director? Do you know?"

"I do not know!"

"No one exposed it!"

"..."

Facing the ridicule from netizens, Fang Xiao was very concerned.

So whenever Fang Xiao had time, he used his mobile phone to browse the quick blog, and ordered the company employees to beautify him, so as to drown out those unpleasant netizens' comments.

As the richest man in the country, Fang Xiao is a busy man.

That is, this week, he pushed off all his work and dedicated it to this play.

Even so, he still has regular conference calls every day, usually in the morning. As for what happens after work is over in the evening, I don't know.

A week later, the filming was completed.

Li Zhifan returned to Xiangjiang with all the materials for editing and post-production special effects.

At the same time, Fang Xiao will also start recording the theme song.

However, Li Zhifan delegated this work to other people. It is a music studio under the entertainment business group of Dongfang Group, and invited the famous national symphony orchestra to arrange it.

Except for the lyrics and music, this song has nothing to do with Li Zhifan. As for the arrangement, it must be different from the original version, as long as the meaning is almost in place.

Another week later.

The editing and post-production work of the micro-movie has also been completed here, and the freshly released film was sent to Fang Xiao as soon as possible.

Microfilms definitely cannot be shown on the big screen, so they can only be released on video websites.

Dongfang Group has its own video website. After getting the finished film, it advertised on the whole network and launched a 1-minute trailer.

Looking at the dazzling big stars in the trailer, netizens were once again shocked.

"My God! Are all these people here?"

"Isn't Li Xue bedridden? She's fine?"

"But he looks so old, he is not as good as before!"

"Alas! Poverty limits my imagination!"
