"Here you come."

Du An opened the door and welcomed Ning Hao in. He glanced at him dressed up, and was speechless: "If I hadn't had a daughter yet, I really doubted whether you came to see your father-in-law."

Ning Hao carried a bag and held two bags of things in his hand. Judging from the packaging, they were all edible.

Ning Hao laughed, put down the things, changed his shoes and walked in, and said as he walked: "It's all Mongolian's local specialties, such as milk tofu, milk skin, beef jerky, very authentic, usually not available in the mainland, I brought it directly from Mongolia."

Duane nodded, even if he accepted it.

This is the first time the two have met since their collaboration in "The Pretty Beauty". Ning Hao is here for the first time, so after coming in and looking at the indoor environment, he praised: "Director Du, your place is really good, how much did you buy it?"

"The average price is more than 5,000 yuan. I bought a second-hand house with decoration totaling more than one million yuan."

Ning Hao sighed after hearing this, "Nanyang's house is really cheap. In Beijin, the average price of houses in such a location is tens of thousands."

The two chatted for a while, and the soup was gone. Du An asked Ning Hao to sit down for dinner.

After Ning Hao praised Duan's cooking skills, Duan asked, "What are you busy with recently?"

"Which movie is called "Green Grass","

Ning Hao stuffed a chopstick in his mouth, his words were blurry, and he finally swallowed the things, and then continued: "It was all filmed in Inner Mongolia. The place was so miserable and there were many situations. The crew almost didn't disband."

"Take it at the beginning. Before the start, I asked a prop chef to go to the outdoor site yurt to do the scenery. As a result, there was a problem with the investor's funds. Then I kept trying to make up some money. Finally, I gritted my teeth with the producer to make up some money. Finally, I solved the problem of the funds, but forgot about this prop. We finally remembered when he found it."

Speaking of this, Ning Hao's face was both self-blame and funny, "I saw him standing on a bucket from afar and looking forward to it. The first sentence he said to him when he met was 'Director. I want to go home'."

"The signal in Inner Mongolia is so bad. You may not be able to find a mobile phone signal after walking dozens of miles. If he hadn't just brought a box of instant noodles, if a shepherd had happened to find him. He would have sent him water every day, he might have died."

Speaking of this, the smile on Ning Hao's face disappeared and he sighed, "It's not easy to make a movie."

Duane echoed: "Who said no?"

Both of them are directors and have many topics in common. After recalling the bitterness and sweetness, Du An saw that Ning Hao still didn't speak out, so he had to speak by himself, "You are here to find me this time. Is there anything wrong?"

Ning Hao stopped eating food, wiped his mouth and said "Yes", "I have a notebook here and I want to take it out, but I can't find an investor."

Du An also put down his chopsticks, "Let me see the notebook."

Hearing that Ning Hao had been talking about filming a movie just now, he knew a little. Now he saw that it was true.

Ning Hao took out a script from the bag that was placed aside and handed it over. Du An reached out to take it and browsed it.

He likes to write scripts so that every point and every sentence is different. This book is quite rough, but the general story can still be seen: this is a story about a thief. A certain craft factory found a piece of priceless jade when overthrowing the old factory. Unexpectedly, international thieves and local thieves organizations both focused on jade. After some open and secret struggle, the jade objects returned to the original owner, and the bad guys would not end well.

In general, it is a normal story, but the plots in the book give Duane a good feeling, and the coincidence is bizarre. Unexpectedly, it is reasonable. If the director controls it well, it should be a good commercial movie.

As for Ning Hao's ability, he also knows it. After all, the two of them collaborated on a movie "Feng Yue Bao Mei", and most of the shots in it were performed on the spot by Ning Hao. The director's directing ability is still good. After two movies "Incense" and "Green Grass", combined with the experiences Ning Hao just mentioned, I believe he has enough experience in directing a movie independently, and I believe he will coordinate the scene well.

The latter point is that Ning Hao's directing ability is what Du An values ​​most. After all, good books are often available, but good directors are not often available.

"This story actually happened in 2000,"

When he was reading the script, Ning Hao also added, "I have always had this idea, but I always feel that it is not mature, and the story has been changed. Now I have made two movies and feel that I have prepared all aspects, so I took out this book again."

“It’s pretty good,”

Du An put down the script and calculated his assets. He had already made a decision in his heart. After looking at Ning Hao, he asked, "If I can't do it, what are you going to do?"

Ning Hao looked at Du An, but in addition to being a director, Du An is also an actor of the best actor. He could not see any clues on Du An's face, so he had to say, "If it doesn't work, I plan to find Liu Dehua. He is now developing a new Asian director program, which specializes in supporting new directors in Xiangjiang and Southeast Asia. Maybe he can invest from him."

After hearing this, Du An nodded and stopped keeping it. After pushing the notebook back to Ning Hao, he said, "Okay, then you don't have to go to him anymore, I'll vote."

"real?!"

Ning Hao was overjoyed and still a little disbelief: Is this done?

Du An looked at Ning Hao's expression and thought a little about when he first filmed "Saw".

After Fang Limin decisively agreed to invest, he was probably in the same mood at that time. The only difference was probably that Ning Hao's joy came from finally finding an investor willing to invest in his films, while his joy came from finally being able to cheat money.

"Of course it's true."

Duane repeated it and put forward some of his own requirements, "But your book is still too rough, so it's better to find a few screenwriters to repair it."

After discussing the investment amount with a few points that need to be controlled by this movie, the project was initially determined. As for the name, there is no hurry, and it is left to Ning Hao to make a decision slowly. Du An did not make a decision on himself and wanted to impose a name on his own. He was really confident in his naming ability. I almost called "Terminator" "Human Machine Battle". Now, thinking about it, the name "Human Machine Battle" is really two-fold.

After the two of them finished their meal and chatted for a while, Ning Hao said goodbye. After Du An cleaned up the dishes, he also returned to the study to surf the Internet.

The result of May 1 was indeed beyond the expectations of many people. In the eyes of many people, "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum" is very likely to break out on May 1 and defeat the obvious decline of "Seven Swords". However, unexpectedly, "Seven Swords" continued to rise on May 1st day with the reputation of Mr. Xu, while "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum" continued to rise on May 1st day after the outbreak the day before, but the growth rate of "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum" slowed down when it encountered May 1st.

So in the first round of the old May Day battle, the veteran director Xu Kesheng.

The box office of these two movies is too weird, and the media dare not speculate on who will win in the next Golden Week, so they have to aim at the May Day market this year.

On May 1, the two highest-grossing movies were "Seven Swords" and "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum", but neither of them could exceed 100 million per day. This was the first time in the May Day holiday in the past three years. Looking at the past two years, at least one movie has a single-day box office of over 100 million per day. If you look at today's market, you will also find that the total daily box office of Chinese movies is also a year-on-year decline compared to last year. This makes people exclaim that the magic of May Day is no longer there, and film manufacturers should be cautious when choosing the release date.

Some media also analyzed the reason, saying that with the rapid development of the economy, more and more viewers chose to travel on May Day, and the tourism market has robbed the share of the film market. This can be seen from the peak of the number of outbound tourists this year during the May Day holiday.

But no matter how you analyze it, those who should go to watch the movie will still go. Golden Week and there are still six days left today, "Seven Swords" and "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum" will continue to compete for the box office championship.

Duane opened Douban, entered the page of "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum", and looked at the evaluation score.

9.2.

After three days of movie viewing, a large number of viewers flocked to Douban to score. The 9.5-point high score before this movie was finally unable to continue.

However, 9.2 points are already quite high.

Duane pulled down the page, browsing the newly added comment posts, and as he looked, his thoughts quickly flew out and flew to the box office of "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum": In fact, "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum" and "Seven Swords" are biting very tightly at the box office, and the gap is not big. Maybe with a little more help, you can overtake it, but the previous publicity work has done everything. This last straw that broke the camel's back, I really don't know where to find it.

While thinking, he casually pulled the comment posts, aiming at them.

Suddenly, his eyes calmed down and he stared at a name.

"Farewell My Concubine".

This comment post scored 9 points, thinking "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum" is very good, but it is still a little worse than "Farewell My Concubine".

Farewell My Concubine, Farewell My Concubine...

Du An remembers that "Farewell My Concubine" also seems to have scored 9.2 points, and he seems to have found some idea.

He entered the name of "Farewell My Concubine" in the search bar and entered the relevant page.

This classic masterpiece by Director Chen Da was praised by him. The comments below all praised him as a masterpiece. The evaluation score on Douban is 9.4 and it seems that he remembered it wrongly.

But this number is better.

This is a very subtle number, 0.1 points lower than the first day of "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum", but 0.2 points higher than the current "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum".

Duan looked at the number and said nothing for a long time. His mind quickly started to work. Finally, he raised his hand and closed his hands and bowed to the cover stills of "Farewell My Concubine".
