Chapter 564 The attitude of the mainland
After a long time, Wu Chengcai said, "It's not impossible to shoot, but you also know that the box office of this drama is definitely not much in Hong Kong, so I can't give you too much in terms of production costs. But the question is, if the production cost is too small, can the things shot be seen by the audience? So I think this book can actually be changed and made more profound. Since the box office cannot be considered, let's go to win the award!"
When Xu Ke heard Wu Cheng say this, he felt that the pressure on his shoulders doubled. He wanted to use this to try it out. However, Wu Cheng told him that if you want to shoot, you will go to get the prize. How can you not be under great pressure?
After pausing, Wu Cheng said again: "However, as an independent directing movie, you are still a newcomer, so winning awards may be too demanding for you. So you shouldn't really want to win any awards for this, because no matter which grand prize is, it is very difficult for a newcomer to get it. Your task is to make this movie well!"
When Xu Ke heard this, he felt that the pressure on him was much less, and he felt relieved.
Wu Cheng glanced at him, pushed the script back, and said, "There is no need for the fighting scene after the protagonist left the script at the end. Just put it in front of it. You can go to director Cheng Xiaodong in terms of fighting scenes and action design. He has a good idea of the action design of martial arts dramas. However, fighting is just for the plot service, so don't put the cart before the horse. When it is time to be sharp, you have to be more neat, so that you can better show the cruel side of human nature..."
Xu Ke listened to Wu Cheng talking endlessly, his eyes gradually brightened, and he felt that what Wu Cheng said was particularly reasonable. In fact, when the screenwriter wrote this drama, he might consider the box office or the audience's viewing experience. Many places just clicked and felt like they were skimming the water, not profound. But what Wu Cheng said broke through the ice surface and pointed directly to the center.
If he did the film as he said, it would probably be beyond recognition after the filming of the entire film, compared with the current script.
But it gives him the feeling that Wu Cheng's version of the analysis of human nature is more sharp and cruel, and the dark side of human nature is more thorough!
In the end, Wu Cheng took out a million costs and sent him away.
Faced with this million cost, Xu Ke could be said to be very happy, or even left happily. In fact, he just wanted a cost of 500,000 at the beginning.
Now that he has doubled the funds, he has to make it more sophisticated.
In fact, Wu Cheng didn't want Xu Ke to be rough and bad, which ruined the reputation of Donglong International.
As for how much box office this film can earn for him, Wu Cheng didn't expect it. However, he believed that such a film would have a lot of revenue in video tape.
If you accidentally win a prize or something on the treasure island, it would be even better.
If you can win an award at the Cannes Film Festival, then... forget it, just think about it, it would be great if you can get familiar with it.
In the afternoon, while the company had no talent, Wu Cheng took Diana and a few beautiful girls to go out for a walk, but almost attracted the attention of passers-by.
So Wu Cheng decided not to take women out for a walk again, because the next day, the extremely high-profile title "Wu Cheng's Red Pink Legion" appeared in the media.
The citizens of Xiangjiang have long been accustomed to Wu Cheng's Fengliu. Moreover, people have three wives and all three wives have given birth to monkeys for him. But whether it is true or not, many people still don't know what it is.
There is no way, the media said it with a clear understanding, but how true and false are these media have always been criticized by the citizens of Xiangjiang. As for the newspapers that adhere to the authenticity, they did not expose such a thing. Therefore, everyone can only know that there is an ambiguity.
But now, there are pictures and truth this time! Although Zhao Yazhi, Deng Lijun, and Lin Qingxia's three girls did not appear on it, but Zhong Chuhong, Guan Zhilin, Chen Yulian, Mei Yanfang, and a foreign girl, Diana, all appeared on it.
As a result, many people are speculating that this blonde girl is, which female star is abroad? She looks very unfamiliar.
There was a rumor before that Zhong Chuhong and Guan Zhilin were conquered by Wu Cheng. Now it seems that groundlessness may not be a reason!
Of course, some people still firmly believe that it was borrowed. Not to mention others, Zhong Chuhong’s family is not an ordinary family, and the Zhong family is also a family with a net worth of over 100 million yuan.
So, if Wu Cheng wants to package Zhong Chuhong, how much do you have to take to make her moved?
Therefore, everyone is more willing to believe that they are just friends.
Many Xiangjiang citizens are still happy to see such gossip news. Especially now, Wu Cheng's movie "The Love of Man and Ghost" is still being released.
Speaking of this movie, we have to mention the song "I Love You Die".
Although this song is very imposing and emotional when sing Wu Cheng, the voice is always somewhat insufficient, but this song is still popular in Xiangjiang and is popular in Southeast Asia.
Some people even watched the movie several times specifically to listen to this song.
Therefore, in Southeast Asia, the box office of "The Love of Man and Ghost" can be said to be rising steadily and the rise is extremely gratifying. I believe that when the film is drawn, the box office results provided by Southeast Asia will surprise him. Even if the box office in North America is not as high as the original time and space, the overseas box office should not be much different.
Of course, more people still hope that Wu Cheng can release an album. After all, although Wu Cheng’s voice is not good enough, his ability to write songs is beyond doubt.
Look at the song "I Love You'll Die", how many young men and women always hum it in their mouths if they have something to do? Some people even want to find this song on Karaoke.
Some radical people even cursed when they didn’t find this song. There weren’t even such a famous song, so why are you still making karaoke?
For this reason, there are many versions of "Love when I die", which are sung by some less well-known singers. These people are naturally much stronger than Wu Cheng in their singing and voice lines. Some people also cover Wu Cheng's song in some nightclubs.
However, some people who are more sarcastic still feel that they are not as emotional as Wu Cheng sings! Not everyone can learn the roar and shouting that are exhausted.
Of course, this kind of preconceived and highly obsessive-compulsive disorder is still a minority after all.
In response to this, Wu Cheng finally let go of the stone in his heart.
In order to give everyone a surprise, I replaced the ending song of Southeast Asia with this song "Love when I die" in order to give the audience a different feeling.
Therefore, it can be said that Wu Cheng and Xiangjiang citizens are so familiar that they are no longer familiar with him. Naturally, the market for his gossip news will not be missing.
Faced with this situation, although Wu Chengxin looked helpless on the surface, he was actually secretly happy. He was not only proud of his pride, but also took the opportunity to reject the "reasonable request" of several women asking him to accompany him, and he could also refuse with confidence.
...
Time soon came late. Donglong International moved from Kowloon Radio to its new office location, located in Tseung Kwan O, the 33rd floor of the huge office building with an upper and lower circles... In addition to Donglong International, the ones moved here together were Fenglong Records, Fengyun Animation Company, Tiancheng Brokerage Company, Chengtian Advertising Company, and Feilong Cinema Headquarters.
As for Longfeng TV, it has not moved yet, but it will be moved here one after another next year.
The Urban Entertainment News, its subsidiary "Infinite Fantasy World", and Shuxiang Publishing Company, have not moved here. Although Wu Cheng has half of the shares of "Infinite Fantasy World", this has nothing directly related to Donglong International. "Infinite Fantasy World" and Shuxiang Publishing House are their subsidiaries, so it is naturally impossible to move here.
Of course, there is also the branch of Tongle Toys in Xiangjiang, so naturally it is impossible to move this, because Tongle Toys has its own toy factory and cannot move all the production workshops, so it is naturally excluded.
On the gate of this building, four big gold characters written directly on Donglong International.
Wu Cheng's office directly occupied the top floor. The rooftop above was for helicopter takeoff and landing. Originally, Wu Cheng wanted to set it up as an aerial garden at first.
However, in order to make a more suitable fit in the future, Wu Cheng gave up and turned into a small helicopter take-off and landing airport. Helicopters sent back from North America could be parked on it.
Of course, for this, Wu Cheng had to build two helicopter take-off and landing points on the villa.
On the top floor, not only Wu Cheng's office, but also has a lounge, conference room, gym, etc. The facilities inside are just like a "home", except for one less kitchen.
When it was originally designed, Zhao Yazhi wanted to get the kitchen in, but Wu Cheng refused. What is the reason for building a kitchen in his own ‘office’?
Of course, there are indeed restaurants, bars, and even other entertainment venues on the three floors below the building, just to allow employees to provide some leisure and entertainment while working.
In addition to the main building, there are several dormitory buildings behind it. These apartments are not only provided to the company's executives, but also to some company employees and trainees in artist training classes... The company's employees and trainees can enjoy the food equivalent to a five-star restaurant in the company.
Of course, these are all for money. If you want to save a little, there are naturally ordinary buffet restaurants (to be continued.)
