Chapter 1,396 The cost of setting up the crew

[I noticed that the spring beauty was falling on other people's houses, and I looked for peach blossoms outside their walls. A warm breeze blew in the peach blossoms, and I only noticed it when the warm wind blew on my face. --Outing in spring】

Michelle can sign the contract, that's for sure. If the director doesn't have enough reasons to refute the actors selected by Ye Ming in the crew, then on such an issue, it can be considered settled.

Giving the director a chance to refute and allowing actors to audition is actually one of Ye Ming's ways of dealing with people. Ye Ming is very domineering. If he made the decision himself, then on a question like this, He won't let people change easily, but he is the kind of person who convinces people with reason. For example, when choosing actors this time, the actors he chose are very suitable for the Fast and Furious crew.

Therefore, at a time like this, not being afraid of the director coming to the audition gave director Rob Cohen a convinced attitude. Regarding such an issue, in fact, more generally speaking, at this point, Rob Cohen and screenwriter Morgan actually had to be convinced by Ye Ming's vision.

Michelle feels that she is very lucky. She does not audition once or twice. Sometimes, even if she is a part-timer on a small crew, the audition may not be completed within an hour. People from the crew will bring it up. Various performance requirements allow you to show the inner meaning of the character from all aspects.

Anyway, the audition is actually tossing the actors in different ways, and after the tossing, it is very difficult to say whether you can pass the audition on a question like this. The little demons in the temple are very powerful, and Chi Qian is a bastard. It is a perfect thing to talk about those small crews.

Therefore, at this time, Mihir himself did not expect that the audition for a big production team such as The Fast and the Furious would be so simple. Just give him one sentence. Although it is a bit confusing to say this sentence, no I know what the lines are, but I can probably understand the meaning by looking at them. Since it is said that my character Letty is a woman who is on the road to being a big brother, three years and three years and three years, big brother, it has been almost ten years.

Obviously it is talking about a woman's anger. If it is to express the character's other emotions, it may need to be brewed, but if it is to express a woman's anger, then on a question like this, this Basically, there is no need to say anything else. Almost every woman comes up with it.

But Michelle never expected that she would succeed in the audition like this. Even when signing the contract, she hesitated and said: "Does this count as passing the audition? I always feel like I'm dreaming." a feeling of."

Rob Cohen immediately nodded with certainty and said: "You don't have to doubt this, it's actually so simple. Do you think auditioning is such a troublesome thing?

Anyway, Ye Ming has already observed you when women punch, so we have some understanding of your overall style. Now we are asking you to audition just to see if your style meets the needs of the role. . And now it seems that something like this is indeed in line with the needs of the character. You can rest assured that our department is a regular crew registered with the Screen Actors Guild. "

Of course this is a joke. Universal's movie is a big production, so how can it be a grass-roots team?

But in fact, sometimes we cannot ignore the reality of Hollywood, that is, most of Hollywood's movies have been registered with various industry associations such as the Screen Actors Guild. But at this time, not all crews will be able to register.

For example, there are some small movies, the investment is only a few hundred thousand, and some are even shot on DV like "Blair Witch". Therefore, you ask them to register with the Screen Actors Guild for such a movie. This is a matter of Almost impossible. After all, it is said that you need to register with the Actors Guild. This registration is not free, it costs money. If there is no handling fee, who will do it for you?

These handling fees are nothing to big companies like Universal, but for small crews whose costs are only a few hundred thousand, they are quite a lot.

Therefore, it is not that there are no unregistered movies in Hollywood, and there are a lot of them, but the rights and interests of the actors on these crews are not so guaranteed.

If it is registered with the Screen Actors Guild, then if something goes wrong in a matter like this, the Screen Actors Guild will definitely help, so actors don’t have to worry about anything. Even as a member of the Screen Actors Guild, sometimes the Screen Actors Guild will recommend some opportunities to its members. Although these opportunities are not necessarily very good, after all, there is money to be made, right? Therefore, in Hollywood, what is registered with the Screen Actors Guild is basically a guaranteed salary.

Therefore, when it comes to a question like this, no matter what the situation is, Michelle was a little bit joking when she heard this. Universal's movies cannot be made by grass-roots teams.

But Michelle is still very relieved, after all, the registration of the Screen Actors Guild is a symbol of guarantee.

At this time, Michelle signed immediately, and then said: "Director, look at what you said, it's not that I don't believe in the crew, but I don't believe in myself. I got this role so easily. It still feels like a dream to me." What?" At this time, Morgan said: "Don't worry, you are not dreaming, but in reality you have such strength, otherwise, it would be impossible for Mr. Ye to choose you."

At this time, as the director, Rob Cohen could call Ye Ming by his first name, but as a screenwriter, even if Morgan had a relatively high status in the crew as a coordinating screenwriter or something, it was impossible to deal with such a problem easily. To call Ye Ming by his name. There is no problem with the director having authority over the crew, but others cannot do it this way.

At this moment, Ye Ming also said with a smile: "You are not dreaming about this at all. Moreover, you will realize your dream in the future. What is a dream? You always have to work hard to realize it? Right, but not entirely right. Even if you work hard, your dreams may not come true in Hollywood, but if you encounter a good opportunity, you can realize your dreams based on a problem like this.

The Fast and Furious crew is a shortcut to success.

Therefore, you don’t have to feel like you are dreaming now. On such a thing, you will fight for your dream until your dream can truly come true. "

Ye Ming is actually very clear about how many people's dreams come true with a crew like Fast and Furious. It can be said that this is one of the most successful movie series in Hollywood in the 21st century. The reason why it is said to be one of the most profitable movie series, not to mention the most profitable one, is because The Fast and the Furious was born at the wrong time. It had the chance to become the most profitable movie series in the 21st century, but in the end The Fast and the Furious failed. Memorizing the words, I met the super god Harry Potter. Although at this time, Ye Ming himself didn’t know how much income Harry Potter had brought to him. The Harry Potter crew also removed the authorization Apart from that, they basically won’t meet Ye Ming.

Ye Ming didn't care about this either. There was no such thing as publicity. To promote a movie like Harry Potter, since the crew didn't want to find Ye Ming, then Ye Ming was too lazy to worry about it. Being involved in politics means that on such an issue, as long as the crew gives money and gives Ye Ming every penny of the remuneration he deserves, then Ye Ming actually doesn’t have much to do with the Harry Potter crew. caring.

Because the Fast and Furious movie series encountered the super god-like classic movie Harry Potter, this series of movies was suppressed. Harry Potter is a super god series with many movies in the top ten at the box office. Speaking of which, There is no problem that one Harry Potter film will have higher box office than three Fast and Furious films. But this is not to say that Fast and Furious is not a classic. On the contrary, in road movies, Fast and Furious is the absolute boss.

Therefore, if you rely on this big tree, even if you have any dreams, you can easily realize them. On this point, Ye Ming is absolutely confident. Whether it's Vin Diesel or Michelle, these movie actors related to Fast and Furious will become very popular later on. Even the actor named Cheng Kang, because he participated in the Fast and Furious movie, has become a second- and third-tier actor in Hollywood.

Otherwise, it is almost impossible for a yellow man to get ahead unless he is in a Kung Fu movie.

Therefore, the Fast and Furious movie is a movie that can fully realize everyone's dreams.

Michelle was very happy and said: "I will try my best to perform my role well and let everyone believe that the Fast and Furious crew was right in choosing me."

Michelle didn't say anything about believing that the Fast and Furious movie will be a big hit or become a classic. These are all unrealistic. Therefore, in times like this, she simply said that she would try her best to perform her role well. Then It's the best choice. This also shows that Michelle is actually a very mature person.

In the terms of the entertainment industry, he is the kind of person who knows how to advance and retreat, and has been involved in society for many years. On the crew, he is also able to do his best not to offend anyone.

People like this may mean that in the entertainment industry, it is unlikely that they can reach the level of a superstar. But if people like this don't change careers halfway, then there is no big problem in being a first-line person. , at least in terms of connections, it is relatively easy to get into the front line when you are old or even middle-aged.

Michelle left, taking with her the outfitting fees given by the crew. These fees were for the actors to choose some clothes for themselves. Of course, they should be chosen according to the clothes on the character. If the character you play is a homeless person, Han, it’s unreliable for you to insist on buying Versace or something like that.

On the contrary, if you play an elite, then if you buy some sportswear sold by Jingcheng Xiushui that can choose four pieces for 100 yuan, then it seems that it is not very possible in such a thing. thing. Hollywood film crews naturally play the role of costumes, and costumes are usually provided for the actors to wear.

However, some directors, when filming, feel that letting the actors choose some clothes and other things by themselves is more conducive to the performance of the actors. Therefore, some crews have it, and some crews do not, it depends on the director. What are your hobbies like?

Of course, the cost is not that much, usually several thousand to tens of thousands, which is about it. The main thing is to prepare the costumes for the performance, because the costumes of the crew are relatively close to the style of the movie. There is actually another term for this installation fee in Hollywood, which is the benefits fee. Buy some appropriate clothes, and the rest of the clothing expenses are your own. Therefore, when it comes to such a problem, actors really like directors who can provide installation fees. Now Michelle met this kind of director.

After Michelle left, Morgan said: "The main actor now is Jordana Brewster. This girl is a student. It is the easiest to find her. Therefore, we will put it at the end. As long as If Jordana is found, then our movie can almost start shooting."

The preparation time for a movie like The Fast and the Furious is relatively long, but slow work makes the difference. In fact, Universal doesn't care that much about a matter like this. It's not a movie that they value investment anyway. Most of them are from outside. Therefore, although Universal also supports Fast and Furious, it will not support it so hard. What Universal wants to support is actually the biological sons of Universal.

For example, movies like The Fast and the Furious are almost adopted and not very popular, and Universal doesn't take them very seriously.

Moreover, Ye Ming himself wants to be the main actor, which means that not many of Universal's own actors have the opportunity to join this movie, and even if there are, they cannot play the main role. Therefore, in terms of support from Universal, Fast and Furious received relatively little support.

Therefore, regarding a question like this, no matter how it is said that the crew has been preparing for such a long time, and now it is about to start shooting, everyone on the crew feels a sense of joy that they can finally start filming. Feel. I simply can’t believe that my crew actually had the opportunity to enter the stage of actual filming.

In addition, if no one invested in it at the beginning, then the possibility of this film being directly won by Universal is still very high. (To be continued)
