Chapter 3 Heroine

"Brother Wen is right. If you want to make a qualified effect, you won't lose 400 million yuan!" Tang An nodded and said.

In fact, compared with animals such as lions and tigers, the cost of sharks for special effects production is relatively lower.

After all, the shark has a smooth body without hair, without limbs, the most important thing is teeth, mouth and eyes.

As long as these three aspects are done well, even if the movements are a little stiff, you can handle it.

"Then where are you going to get the three or four million yuan?" Xu Jinglai asked more and more curious about Tang An's plan.

"Look for China Film Group!" Tang An said with a smile.

Xu Jinglei was a little disappointed. She didn't expect Tang An's thoughts to be like this. She persuaded, "You'd better be mentally prepared. Although China Film is supporting domestic directors, you are not from a major studio, nor are you from a major. , the most important thing is that you are too young, no director of China Film Production Department will give you 400 million yuan!"

Tang An shook his head, "I didn't say to go now, I plan to finish filming the film, cut it into pieces and then go to China Film Group. If they have vision, it shouldn't be difficult."

"And I don't want cash, I just ask China Film to help me with special effects, the money still falls in their pockets, and then converted into a certain investment ratio!"

Xu Jinglai's eyes lit up, "This is also a way, it is equivalent to using this investment to pay the special effects department!"

Although this would greatly dilute Tang An's share ratio, after all, the difference between 3 and 300 million is too big, but Tang An is the only one in the entire crew, so he has the final say on the cost, how many people are hired, and the loss of equipment.

Make an account and report 50, and China Film will not be too suspicious.

After all, no one would have thought that a movie could be made for less than 3 yuan.

Besides, his film was originally not for money, but for fame. Fame in the entertainment industry means everything.

This fame is not the popularity of those so-called traffic stars later on. The popularity can only be maintained for a while. I don't know how many traffic stars quickly became famous and then quickly disappeared from the audience's sight.

Later Ning Hao was a typical example. He became famous after filming "Crazy Stone", and this fame directly made "Crazy Racing" break through [-] million at the box office.

On a bigger scale, Zhang Yimou is the most famous, "Three Guns" and "Thirteen Hairpins" were called S..., and the box office was still a big hit.

No matter how bad Liu Dehua's "Future Policeman" and "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" are, they still have a box office of [-] to [-] million yuan.

With fame, countless investors come to your door waving checks, and countless actors beg you to act!
"Oh, by the way, can you lend me one of the crew's vans, otherwise these tools can't be pulled over!" Tang An said again.

"No problem, the crew will stay in Hengdian for a month to do post-production. I'm afraid there will be some reshoots for some scenes, so just come back within a month!"

"Thank you!" Tang An said sincerely.

"There's nothing to thank. The Huayi family has a great career, and they don't care about this thing. Even if you break it, it's okay if I report the damage. Just ask them to update the equipment!" Xu Jinglai smiled, not caring.

"By the way, is there anyone who has chosen the heroine? Shall I go to Zhongxi to find some for you?"

"No need, I can't afford the Chinese opera students. Don't forget that the total is more than 2 yuan. I found a pretty girl in Hengdian. I was filming "The Family of Pink Pink" with Tong Dawei and Sun Li. Rong Xinda."

In fact, there is no way to change the character of the heroine to an 18-year-old girl. The older female stars are not so easy to fool, and they have some qualifications. It is basically impossible to spend 4000 yuan. They are young and have a good figure. There aren't many good (in swimsuits, after all) female stars that are suitable.

And a young and beautiful girl in a bikini is trapped alone in the sea, surrounded by sharks, how can it not arouse those men's desire to protect.

"Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan? We've dealt with each other a few times, so how about it, I'll go with you then!" Xu Jinglei thought for a while and said.

"Okay, I'll trouble you!" Now is not the time to be hypocritical, Yang Mi has obtained so many resources at such a young age, Rong Xinda made it clear that he wanted to praise him, Xu Xujinglai is more confident!
Early the next morning, Tang An and Xu Jinglei rushed to the crew of "The Pink Family" to meet Li Xiaowan.

"Li Xiaowan also became a director step by step from the scene record back then. This is very similar to your experience. If you talk about it later, it may be effective!" Xu Jinglai kept telling on the road.

"She is a businessman now, and the only thing that can impress her is profit, and the rest are just incidentals!" Tang An shook his head, who is simple who can go all the way from the bottom, and it doesn't work by relying on feelings, he only has one bargaining chip.

The absolute heroine of the movie!
For an 18-year-old actor, that's more alluring than anything.

"Are you really not going to apply for a movie shooting permit?" Xu Jinglei said another crucial thing.

"No way, individuals can't apply for a shooting permit, they must be in the name of the company, and the review cycle is at least 20 days, I don't have so much time, I'd better leave it to China Film to do it, it's okay to shoot first and then apply for a permit!" Tang Ann said helplessly.

Although all kinds of certificates are required to shoot film and television dramas, the state is not strict about this aspect. In a few years, even the film shooting license will be cancelled, and individuals can also make movies.

"Then what if China Film doesn't invest?"

"Then go to another company and try it. If no one invests, just keep it. Let's talk about it later when you have money. Find a job first!" Tang An spread his hands, youth is capital, and he can afford it.

If it takes another five or six years, the domestic film market will mature day by day, the cake will get bigger and bigger, and a lot of capital will flow in. No matter what, Tang An will be able to fool a few people, even if it is to praise his own Xiaomi. There are also many local tyrants.

Later, the funding for Tang An's first independently directed film came from a rich man who raised a starlet.

But where do you go to find local tyrants to fool you now? It is no exaggeration to describe the current domestic movies as barren. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that except for a few big companies with overseas channels, most of the movies are losing money, and some are even copied. Fees are not earned back.

"It's not bad to find a company. It's best to work as an assistant director in a large costume production crew. After all, blockbuster movies are different from small and medium-budget movies. Accumulate a little more experience and qualifications. What about Jiang Wen? If his new movie won't be accepted If it is forbidden, it is also a good place to go." Xu Jinglei analyzed for Tang An.

"You don't have to think so much, not to mention that I may not be unable to succeed!" Tang An waved his hand and smiled.

"Having confidence is a good thing, but let's get the heroine right now."
