"[Xiangyun] Want to invite the boss to film a drama?" Xiao Zhou looked surprised and turned to ask Han Jue: "How much is the signing fee?"
"It's not decided yet." Han Jue said, while reaching out and scratching his hair.
"Only 40 million?" Xiao Zhou stared at Han Jue's hand scratching his hair.
Han Jue put down his hand and corrected: "Four hundred million."
"Four hundred million?! The signing fee alone is four hundred million?!" Xiao Zhou's jaw almost dropped to the ground, "Here, is this the money for signing a drama or how many years it will be signed?"
Han Jue said: "A drama."
Xiao Zhou had to hold his chin with both hands to prevent it from falling to the ground.
Four hundred million
Linlin looked at the transparent liquid slowly flowing out of the corner of Xiao Zhou's mouth, and moved her position in disgust, sitting further away.
Xiao Zhou wiped the corners of his mouth and asked, "Boss, have you agreed to take the photo?"
Han Jue nodded.
400 million Chinese dollars is almost the reward for Han Jue to write, direct and film a movie called "Time Traveler". According to Wang Zhi, there is room for negotiation on the price.
but! Money is not important to Han Jue, money is not the decisive factor.
The reason why Han Jue came up with the idea of ??filming "Black Mirror" was first of all because he thought it was interesting.
The first time he saw the show "Black Mirror" in his previous life, Han Jue intuitively felt that it was written for Apple.
Screenwriter Charlie Brooker said in an interview: [The "black mirror" of the title is the one you'll find on every wall, on every desk, in the palm of every hand: the cold, shiny screen of atv, amonitor, asmartphone. ]
The TV that is turned off is Black Mirror.
A turned off phone is a black mirror.
The closed tablet is a black mirror.
The development of science and technology brings convenience to people, but while solving some problems, it also creates some new problems. Technology is like a medicine, it has effects, but it also has side effects. And in the gap between comfort and uncertainty, "Black Mirror" wants to tell the story inside. It will explore the impact of scientific and technological development on human society.
Han Jue felt that in this world, if [Xiangyun], a technology giant, produced such a spicy and sharp TV series, it would be quite interesting.
When Han Jue briefly talked about "Black Mirror" in the elevator, he never thought about a middle-aged man in formal clothes with great power. He just listened to a few broad outlines of the story and fell in love with "Black Mirror". For the script of "Mirror", Han Jue was invited to be the director.
In China¡¯s TV drama industry, screenwriters usually also serve as co-producers, with extremely high status and great power. In the title of a TV series, the name of the TV series is always displayed first, then the name of the screenwriter, and then the names of the director and others.
When the audience chooses a TV series, they will first pay attention to the resume and strength of the screenwriter.
If movies are the director¡¯s art, then TV series are the screenwriter¡¯s art. The screenwriter can be said to be the core of a TV series. If the screenwriter is not good, this TV series will never become popular no matter how beautiful it is.
The current success story of Han Jue is only one and a half movies, and he has no experience in TV series production. What kind of vision and courage does it take to spend more than 400 million to hire such Han Jue?
[Xiangyun] In addition to giving Han Jue a heavy appreciation, the people over there also showed him plenty of sincerity: They gave him enough money, and they didn't interfere in the production. They gave him whatever the budget required. No problem was a problem. They only wanted the finished product. . If the cooperation goes smoothly, a long-term cooperative relationship can be maintained. The [Cloud] platform will have a [Tinder] channel.
Han Jue was a little moved at the time, but very conflicted. After being busy with a series of things, he planned to take a rest after finishing the concert. If he takes on "Black Mirror", then he may not be able to be a useless salty fish in a warm home this winter.
So Han Jue told the people at [Xiangyun] that he would think about it and planned to ask Xia Yuan Wang Zhi and the others what they thought. If Xia Yuan and Wang Zhi had other plans according to that five-year plan, then Han Jue would not be able to insist on filming "Black Mirror".
As a result, when Xia Yuan and Wang Zhi heard these conditions, they immediately agreed on the spot.
Han Jue asked them why they agreed so quickly.
Wang Zhi said: "You don't want to make money, are you stupid? Anyway, you haven't thought about making a movie now. You are struggling with it. I guess you will probably be struggling for several months. Why not film a TV series while thinking about the next one?" Isn¡¯t it wonderful to shoot something?¡±
¡°Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, the capitalist¡¯s face is undoubtedly exposed. Ugly, ugly.
Han Jue againXia Yuan asked her in the office. Xia Yuan was lying on the boss's chair, pointing his index finger on the armrest, raising a corner of his mouth and saying with a smile: "The budget given by [Xiangyun] is 300 million, which makes me most satisfied. Are you afraid?" Are you losing money, so why don¡¯t you want to make a blockbuster? Well, you, use this drama to practice your skills, get a feel for how rich people shoot, and learn how to be extravagant. Anyway, in the end, the losses won¡¯t be on our shoulders.¡±
Han Jue lamented that this is really a dirty company.
Xia Yuan said that the opening title of the factory logo of [Fire] has already foreshadowed it - black flames are burning blazingly. "They are all well-directed and have far-sighted directors."
The far-sighted Han Jue left the table in shame and anger.
After leaving Xia Yuan's office, Han Jue ran to find Director Sun, intending to purify his mind and be with pure creators. As a result, Director Sun came up and asked about the follow-up promotion of "Internet" and said that he planned to go to the United States, England, France and other countries to promote it, and he must sell good box office. I also asked if wearing women's clothing could increase the box office.
Han Jue begged Director Sun not to do this.
After finally persuading the person to come down, Han Jue turned left when he went out and found Xiao Zhou in the editing room.
¡¡
"Boss, please help me see which version is the best." After Xiao Zhou heard about the signing fee worth 400 million from Han Jue, although he was drooling with envy and greedy to death, he still calmed down and said Focus all your attention on the first work in front of you. He understands the importance of being down-to-earth step by step¡ªstudy hard with his boss, and sooner or later he will be able to get remuneration in the hundreds of millions.
This short film called "The Tuner" was shot by Xiao Zhou for ten days. Xiao Zhou is the second-generation director of Tinder, Miaozi, and the company has given him great support both covertly and covertly. The leading actor is Jack from "Space Traveler" and the team behind the scenes is the team used by the company to make movies.
Originally, the entire shooting process only took eight days, but Xiao Zhou strived for perfection, so he made a lot of preparations and took a lot of shots for backup. Now in the post-production stage, the rough cut has been cut into several versions. Before Han Jue showed up, Xiao Zhou had been struggling for a long time. He didn't know which one to choose, but he thought any one was good. Now that the master is here, ask him for help.
"I don't know which one to use? Okay, I'll read them all first." Han Jue sat on the seat that Xiao Zhou gave up and started looking at Xiao Zhou's works.
Xiao Zhou¡¯s heart suddenly felt more at ease. While Han Jue was watching the short film, Xiao Zhou left the editing room to go to the toilet, then leaned against the wall of the corridor to bask in the sun and take a break.
Linlin also came out, stood on the small perimeter, and handed a bottle of water.
"Thank you." Xiao Zhou took a sip of water and asked, "How was the film festival?"
During the ten days that Han Jue attended the [Magic City Film Festival], except for Xiao Zhou who came during the premiere of "Dark Web", he spent the rest of the time filming short films.
¡°Some movies are good to watch, and some are not good to watch.¡± Linlin said.
Xiao Zhou nodded calmly.
Linlin was silent for a moment, and then said: "A few reporters want to interview you, and some viewers think your acting is good. Xiaochi has been asking me these past few days, have you secretly attended any acting cram school"
Xiao Zhou suddenly beamed. That's what he wanted to hear.
"What about you? How does it feel to be a director?" Linlin asked Xiao Zhou.
Xiao Zhou¡¯s smile faded a little. He picked up the bottle and drank water. Then, as if he had finished a sip of wine, he took a long breath and sighed: ¡°It¡¯s difficult, it¡¯s tiring, and it feels like it¡¯s easy to go bald.¡±
Linlin was confused: "When I watch my boss making movies"
"That's because the boss is so awesome. I only stayed on one set when I was filming and didn't watch many movies, but it's like I was born to be a director. I was pushed into the position of director. I learned and filmed at the same time. Every instruction was very accurate." , very firm and not at all uncertain. In addition, the public opinion outside was very negative at that time. As a result, the first film was produced like "Love Traveler" As for me, I ran away with my boss and Director Sun. Three studios, preparations for so long, and I happily waited until I started making movies as a director. I thought I could be more or less at 70 to 80% of the boss's level? But I found out 20 to 30%?"
Xiao Zhou sighed: "Oh I am only a short film. When I make a feature, I don't know where it will go. Ah, speaking of features, I don't even know if it is possible to make a movie again If the boss says that I don¡¯t have the talent to be a director, then I can only work hard to be a screenwriter and try to make 400 million! Hahaha.¡±
Such Xiao Zhou is unfamiliar to Linlin.
Linlin didn¡¯t know that this impromptu visit was also an assessment of whether she could make another movie in the future. She didn't know what he should say in this situation. So I could only remain silent. After a moment of silence, she finally whispered to Xiao Zhou: "Didn't the boss say that new directors should not listen to anyone's opinions and just go and shoot?"
"Yes." Xiao Zhou smiled and nodded, indicating that he also remembered this sentence. But after Xiao Zhou nodded, he said seriously: "Other people's opinions are not important to me, but the boss's opinions are important to me."
Linlin stopped talking. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Does anyone have any opinions, should I just go and take pictures? "
"Yes." Xiao Zhou smiled and nodded, indicating that he also remembered this sentence. But after Xiao Zhou nodded, he said seriously: "Other people's opinions are not important to me, but the boss's opinions are important to me."
Linlin stopped talking. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
