Photo studio.
It was arranged into a single dormitory for girls.
In addition to pink-flavored decorations, some cute clothes, and dolls, there is also a poster of Bruce Lee on the wall. There is a nunchaku on the table below the poster, and there are footballs and basketballs on the ground... which shows that the owner
Unusual hobbies.
Li Saifeng was wearing a vest and shorts, exposing her strong thighs, and was lying on the bed as if sleeping.
Liang Jiahui is wearing an official uniform of the Qing Dynasty.
In the setting of the original version of "Happy Ghost", Zhu Xiucai was a down-and-out scholar who stole an official uniform and hanged himself. Then he bragged in front of the girl and said that he was the second best. This is very illogical. Did he just steal the official uniform casually?!
Chen Qi changed it. When he first appeared on the scene, he was dressed in rags. In order to avoid embarrassment, he used magic to change into an official uniform.
Liang Jiahui played the role of emperor in mainland China, so he shaved his head, which was convenient for styling.
He is very thin now, and when he puts on his clothes, he looks like a scholar.
I saw him standing in the room. He first saw the sleeping Li Saifeng, her exposed waist and thighs, and quickly covered his eyes: "Oh, don't look at anything inappropriate! Look at nothing! This woman is wearing scantily clad clothes, and she doesn't know how to behave. Could it be from somewhere?
Brothel?"
Then I looked around again, saw a poster of Bruce Lee, and learned some postures from him.
A ghost from the Qing Dynasty comes to modern times, it means time travel! It is a very interesting setting. Unfortunately, the original version of "Happy Ghost" did not show this element, so Chen Qi added some.
Liang Jiahui searched around and found the place strange, so he turned to Li Saifeng and woke him up.
"Girl, this young man is so polite!"
"ah!!!"
"Girl, please don't scream!"
"Girl, Xiaosheng just wants to ask something!"
"Don't come over here!"
A beautiful girl saw a guy wearing Qing Dynasty official uniform in her room in the middle of the night. Of course she screamed at the top of her lungs. She jumped out of bed and picked up her nunchucks: "Who are you? I'm warning you,
I have practiced kung fu, my master is Bruce Lee!"
As he said that, he hummed and played with the nunchucks.
And her character is that of a half-assed sports girl, who is not good at anything she practices, hits her head with a bang, and screams ouch, ouch, ouch.
"Girl, are you okay? Do you want to take a rest?"
Liang Jiahui had a very greasy voice that deserved to be beaten, but his face was serious, so he became more and more worthy of being beaten.
"Click!"
"OK!"
Lin Lingdong shouted stop and couldn't help but nodded. This actor is really good.
Zhu Xiucai's comedy style is not very exaggerated. He has to control his acting, and Liang Jiahui is quite precise. In comedy films, he can be very crazy, such as "East and West", or very restrained, such as "92 Black Rose"
.
All in all, it’s handy.
Among Hong Kong's first-line male stars, the ones who are most open-minded when filming comedies are Andy Lau and Lai Ming. Jacky Cheung and Tony Leung can all be very open-minded.
The filming went smoothly.
During lunch, Chen Qi called Liang Jiahui over and asked, "How is Director Li doing there?"
"Fortunately, he is planning something big."
"What's the big deal?"
Liang Jiahui looked around and whispered: "Director Li spent hundreds of thousands to build the Old Summer Palace Flood Painting. The staff at Beijing Film Studio were very excited. Little did they know that Director Li built this just to burn it down."
"Wow, then he will definitely be reported!" Chen Qi laughed.
"I think too..."
Liang Jiahui responded, then felt something was wrong and said: "I mean, I have been filming in the mainland for a few months, and I feel that the staff there are very strict and serious in their thinking."
"That's right, there's nothing wrong with it."
Chen Qi smiled and said, "I'll let Lin Lingdong focus on filming your scenes, and he can go back in half a month."
"Well, it's okay with me!"
Liang Jiahui was borrowed for two months in total, not two consecutive months. He had to leave after filming and would come back after Tsui Hark finished "Tai Chi 3" and "Shanghai Nights".
Just as he was talking, Xiao Mo suddenly came over and said: "Brother Qi, the belt for Meiling has arrived."
"good!"
Chen Qi and Liang Jiahui waved their hands and left the studio first.
…………
Chen Qi requested that it be completed in one month, but now more than 20 days have passed, and it is still less than a month.
He watched it first, and then went to ATV to find Li Zhuanglie. Li Zhuanglie was surprised that he showed him an episode of cartoons, but Qiu Degen ordered him to watch it first, so he had no choice but to watch it.
There is no opening or ending, and it is 2 and a half minutes long.
"Dear children and adults, how are you? My name is YY, I am a robot... I am the host of the Idiom Animation Gallery!"
"YY, who did you say was the host just now?"
Dr. Panda is out.
These two figures have basically no movement. The robot doesn't even have a mouth, only the two antennas on its head move around.
"Ah, doctor, of course it's you!"
"Hee hee, does this count as a fake show of force?"
This episode is about the power of a fox pretending to be a tiger, a very rough tiger and a very rough fox. The background is motionless, and Barabala mainly relies on dubbing.
But Li Zhuanglie saw it and was very serious about it.
In just 2 and a half minutes, the idiom of a fox pretending to be a tiger is very complete and interesting. At the end, Dr. Panda also summarized it.
"We use the metaphor of relying on the power of others to dominate, or cheating... So we must not be like this..."
The quality is okay, but the key is that the meaning is clear and the culture is correct. If you show it to children, even the parents won't say anything. Maybe the relevant parent organizations will give it a commendation...
Li Zhuanglie had an idea and asked: "How many episodes do you have?"
"How many episodes do you want? There are endless idioms. You can do whatever you want. How about a hundred episodes?"
"No, no, I can't order so many at once. Can I order 15 episodes first?"
"Alright!"
"What about the price?"
"If you don't want the copyright, one episode will cost HKD 6,000! But I can share the copyright with you. One episode will cost HKD 8,000. You will be responsible for distributing it overseas and we will share the proceeds equally."
Li Zhuanglie quickly settled the score.
Without copyright, 15 episodes will cost 90,000 Hong Kong dollars, and 100 episodes will cost 600,000 Hong Kong dollars.
Copyright sharing requires HK$800,000 for 100 episodes, but the TV station has a long-term program that airs 2 episodes a day, which can also be aired for 50 days. It can charge GG fees, and it will be a net profit if it is distributed overseas.
This kind of cartoon has no political consciousness, and Chinese TV stations including Taiwan are all potential audiences.
TV stations rely on GG to make money.
Currently, the average cost per episode for ATV and TVB to produce TV series is around 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and a 20-episode drama costs 2 million. The ratings may be poor and cut in half midway.
Every year, there are a few hit movies, a few that are average, and a few that hit the blockbuster. The ones that hit the blockbuster are just a waste of money, but they have to be made because the TV station needs to have enough programs.
Because of this, Li Zhuanglie feels that "Idiom Moving Gallery" is very cost-effective.
"I choose the second option!"
"Okay, but making animations is very troublesome. We will send them over as soon as we finish 15 episodes. Your TV station is not in a hurry to broadcast cartoons, so there is no need to set a deadline."
Li Zhuanglie thought for a while and said, "Okay!"
…
After the negotiation was completed, Chen Qi immediately went back and called the branch staff stationed in Dongchang.
"You go to Meiying in person and inform us of the order. You will do 15 episodes first, and it will be completed within four months! You will be paid on a piece-rate basis. If you complete it on time, the remuneration will be doubled. If you finish it one month in advance, the remuneration will be doubled!"
"I went to Zheng Yuanjie for the script. With his ability, he can write 50 episodes a day."
"Go to Shangyi for Mandarin dubbing, and go to Pearl Film Studio for Cantonese dubbing. Don't concentrate on Shangmei Film."
"clear!"
Chen Qi commissioned the movie for 4,000 Hong Kong dollars per episode, and he made at least double the profit once it was resold.
Cheap labor in the mainland is the key to his ability to do this. It is also the basic factor for him to take work from Hong Kong and overseas and subcontract it to the mainland.
This content is broken, and given 4 months, it is already considering the various restrictions of American Film, and it is extra tolerant. According to the mature assembly line operation, 10 episodes can be produced in a month, and 10 episodes only last more than 20 minutes.
Chen Qi knew that people like Mark Xuan and Wang Borong were in trouble, but in the face of absolute salary, he believed in people's intelligence more.
(There will be more tonight...)
Chapter completed!
