    Cheng Xiong's new film "The Deer and the Cauldron" did not bring too much shock to people. Everyone in the magazine discussed it with hope. I hope that Mak Chengxiong can bring you a different "The Deer and the Cauldron" this time. After all,  This excellent book has already been turned over and over again by these directors. Several TV series have almost always changed the soup without changing the medicine. This time it was filmed by a gold medal screenwriter.  () Naturally there will be a breakthrough, as to what it will look like.  No one can guess, so everyone will wait and see.

    Not long after Mak Cheng-hsiung was filming, Cameron, the guy in the Hollywood digital field, rushed to Hong Kong in a hurry. After he saw Mak Cheng-hsiung.  His old face stretched out, and he complained: "Mai, you are the boss. I have called DreamWorks several times, but I can't reach you. This is irresponsible on your part. I really  Sad that I have a boss like you¡±.

    Mak Cheng-hsiung is in very good shooting condition recently.  Moreover, the script of "The Deer and the Cauldron" also contains a lot of night scenes, so Mak Sung-hsiung took advantage of his good condition.  The filming was overtime, so he never returned to the company at all, and the crew was also here.  Therefore, people from DreamWorks could not contact Mak Chengxiong at all, and Cameron urged him several times to no avail.

    Cameron can¡¯t wait any longer.  He flew over immediately and yelled at the people at DreamWorks. In the end, he had no choice but to take him to the TVB. They were most familiar with the whereabouts of Mak Cheng-hsiung's crew and found them quickly.

    Cameron is very dissatisfied with DreamWorks¡¯ attitude.  His trip this time was in vain. If he hadn't asked Mai Chengxiong for something, he might have just rolled up his sleeves and left.

    "What's wrong? Cameron, aren't you preparing to shoot a new movie? Have you encountered any trouble?" Mak Chengxiong didn't know what Cameron's intention was when he suddenly came here. Logically speaking, he should be directing on the set now.  It¡¯s the right time to film True Lies.

    It would be better not to mention it. When it comes to shooting, Cameron's eyes glared over and he said angrily: "shooting? Okay, then what kind of shooting do you want me to do? All the funds in the digital field have been invested in setting up the set."  on, and that bastard Smith actually told me that their theater chain costs money and lives. I had no choice but to look for you. You promised me, but you can¡¯t find the film. Our crew has only started shooting for a week, and now  The funds have been cut off, how do you want me to shoot?"

    Cameron almost yelled angrily and said to Mai Chengxiong. Mai Chengxiong was very embarrassed at this time. After all, he was too involved in filming during this period and had already forgotten about the outside world, let alone took this matter to heart. However,  This Cameron has gone too far. There are tens of millions of liquidity in the digital field. Could it be that this guy spent it all in one breath?

    "40,000!? Could it be that Peter and the others didn't spend any money on filming? In the digital field, there was no money. And Lasseter's production didn't cost any money? In the end, the money left was only enough for us to set up the set. If today  If you don't give me money, I won't have to go back to the digital realm." Cameron said viciously.

    This was Cameron's vicious talk, and it also amplified the matter. In fact, he had already spent a lot when setting up the set, so he cut off the funds, but he would not have had this awareness at all.  I just thought it was because Mai Chengxiong didn't have sufficient funds prepared for him, so this time I put all the responsibility on Mai Chengxiong.

    "Okay, DreamWorks is giving you 20 million US dollars in filming expenses. This money should be enough for you to complete the filming, even if it is a little short. I estimate that it will be delivered to you by then. Post-production will be done  I'm injecting 20 million into your crew, okay?" Mak Chengxiong frowned, and finally estimated DreamWorks' financial situation and gave him a bottom line.

    Cameron resisted and did not do anything, but his expression had already betrayed him. Originally, he came here to get all the funds directly, but he did not expect that Mai Chengxiong actually played the trick of installment payment with him.  He really wanted to give up his career, but he couldn't let go of this film.

    "Our original budget was US$10,000, so you should provide US$10,000 more. I will take the twenty million first, and the thirty million must be sent over as soon as possible.

    " Cameron finally said with a gloomy face and gritted teeth.

    This guy is like a bottomless pit.  So Mak Cheng-hsiung only gave him 20 million in filming funds, and he had to consider the rest by himself.  Otherwise, even if you give him so much money, he will probably be able to spend it easily. It is not his personal gain, but just wasted in vain. This is what makes Mai Chengxiong heartbroken the most.

    Cameron was dissatisfied and left Hong Kong with the check. He had just left, and the Hong Kong film industry had caused an uproar. The 20 million start-up capital for filming is very expensive in Hollywood. If it were converted into Hong Kong dollars, then  But a total of 150 million, onePeople in many companies today feel dazzled, and this number is a bit too exaggerated.  They all couldn't imagine what kind of film could be made with so much money, and this was just the cost of filming. If the entire film was included, it would be at least three times as much, so  This movie is a movie made with money.

    After Jiahe's boss Wenhuai heard this, he shook his head and smiled bitterly. Cheng Long went to Africa to shoot this time and spent 20 million to make the new film "Eagle Project". Including the cost of post-production special effects, the production cost of the entire film was as high as 10,000.  Ten thousand Hong Kong dollars, this is already the first share in Hong Kong, which makes him proud.  Especially the media in Hong Kong are exaggerating it.  It also made Bu Wen feel that this should be the work of a big company. In comparison, DreamWorks' movies are just small efforts.

    This idea had only appeared for a few days, and I was frightened into silence by the subsequent high cost of filming. Movies are a money-burning art, and Hollywood is a giant furnace.

    At the same time, it also deeply stimulated Hong Kong Sound Company and Xu Company, which were about to start filming. They were still annoyed that they had invested so much money, but now they are no longer worried at all. Their five million  In the eyes of DreamWorks, they are just a drop in the bucket, so they have to hemorrhage a lot this time. Even if they can't find a superstar to shoot for them, they still have to find a first-line star

    So this time Xu¡¯s company is making great efforts.  The title of their film has been decided, and it is called "The Real Wei Xiaobao". They immediately set their sights on the popular stars in Hong Kong and Sichuan. Many times they saw Liang Wei, who has become very popular in recent years. Liang Wei was originally a TVB actor.  Andy Lau, a popular young man in the TV station and later one of TVB's top five players, all terminated their contracts with TVB due to salary reasons and transferred to other departments one after another. However, Liang Wei remained unmoved and continued to stay at TVB.  In the past two years, he has also filmed many TV series and has become an idol of the new generation, so Xu decided to star in him this time.

    Xu was not familiar with everyone before.  It's just a small company whose name you can only see occasionally. Now they are considered wealthy and can actually spend so much money on filming, which even some medium-sized film companies are unable to do.  So they easily obtained Liang Wei's consent. Their second target was Zhang Xueyou, who had just entered the film industry. Although his performance in the music industry was very good, it was not smooth sailing in the film industry. Although he had already filmed  In several films, he only appeared in supporting roles.  In "Once Upon a Time", he played the role of "Ya Chasu", a fake foreigner who returned from studying abroad. His performance was very good and very dramatic, so this time Xu took advantage of him and let him join this film.

    After all the actors were booked, Xu's company immediately set up a crew, and soon they were preparing to shoot at a small seaside place that was very suitable for filming.  ()

    Although Hong Kong Sound Company got the script earlier than Xu, they worked hard on casting and set issues this time. This time they chose several very capable actors.  Because ATV has been very successful in filming dramas before, this time they hired several heavyweight TV drama actors such as Dong Bi, He Jiajin and Liang Xiaolong. They were originally actors in the drama. This time they will appear in the movie again.  Naturally, everyone is familiar with the other actors.  They were also positioned after careful screening.

    They have also solved the problems on the set. This time, thanks to DreamWorks, they have the opportunity to shoot on the set in the mainland. The scenery here is more beautiful, and the shooting cost will be reduced a lot.

    After Xi Shuang finished everything, he sighed and said to Xi Jinsheng with emotion: "Oh my god, I really can't believe that one day we will be able to choose celebrities to shoot movies. This time last year,  We¡¯re still worrying about screenings.¡±

    He is right. At this time last year, they had already listened to the bewilderment of other companies and betrayed DreamWorks. As a result, they were looked down upon by other theaters. In the end, one of the films they shot did not get a release date.  It has always been hidden in the warehouse, but although they now have the opportunity to show the film, they have always thrown it in the cold warehouse.  That film is incomparable to the film they are shooting now from every angle.

    Xi Jinsheng¡¯s eyes were also full of emotion.  They have also changed too much. It only took one year. Although their Hong Kong Voice Company is still weak, they are no longer satisfied with making bad movies. Now ordinary scripts cannot enter their discernment. In one year, they also  There has been a qualitative change.

    Shi will appear who has worked with Mak Cheng-hsiung.  I have only been in contact with him for a year.  There will be very big changes. Take Zhou Xingchi, who is currently filming intensely, his heart is even more surging. You must know that he was stillThe director on the set had a lot of opinions about a little bit player who wanted to play everywhere. Many people told him that they would not give him the role of a dog even if it was offered to him.  But look now, many directors have already come to ask him to shoot, and the pay is beyond his imagination, but he has rejected them all. The most important thing for him now is not to make money, but to practice his acting skills.

    Xu's businessman once again found Mak Sing-hsiung, and this time they were going to trouble Mak Sing-hsiung because their directors were used to shooting fashion scenes, so they were very inexperienced in shooting costume scenes, especially on the set.  Also difficult to find.  Even building a small palace would be a huge investment, so at this time his friend gave him a very feasible solution.  That is to ask Mak Cheng-hsiung for help, and he is not filming "The Deer and the Cauldron", so the set is ready-made and only needs to be decorated.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? There are many talented people at DreamWorks, so anyone at DreamWorks can shoot this small couplet scene with just a little effort from DreamWorks.  It can help them solve very big problems.

    After Xu Shang heard this, he agreed very much.  It's just that his cheeks felt a little burning. After all, he had begged Mak Chengxiong so many times that he was a little embarrassed to speak, but for this movie.  So he had to ask Mai Chengxiong this time.

    After hearing what Xu Shang said, Mai Chengxiong laughed.  Said: "What's so difficult about this? Just come and film. The studio is just big enough to shoot two films at the same time. Your film is just a few shots. It won't have much impact on us, and I can still do it."  I will help you find a very talented director who is most suitable for shooting your film, and he will definitely satisfy you."

    In this way, Xu's film crew came to Clear Water Bay, a studio rented by DreamWorks. Mak Sung-hsiung also gave them a very spacious room, which was completely suitable for their filming. There were also many supporting actors here, which was just right.  There is no need to go to great lengths to find people, and even costumes can be omitted.

    The director Du Chengxiong mentioned was beyond everyone's expectations. Even the person involved was very surprised, because this person was Zhou Xingchi who was filming, and Mak Chengxiong suddenly found him.  Then I told him about this and asked him to temporarily direct these scenes.

    Of course it's not Zhou Xingchi himself. After all, he is still a newcomer, and his best partner Liu Weiqiang assists him. Both of them started filming comedies, so they have a very good grasp of the frequency of comedies.  There is no need to worry too much, and Xu's shots are very few, and it only takes a few days to shoot.

    It is said that Emperor Kangxi was seriously ill, and the empress Zhizhenming whom the imperial master sought for help had not yet appeared, causing the dragon body to be in disharmony.  The only solution now is to find people to find Queen Zhenfeng and marry Kangxi in a realm that is neither ancient nor today.  The emperor can be rescued, and this task is handed over to Wei Xiaobao.  Xiaobao then took the Rakshasa Kingdom's high-tech shuttle, the invincible Huntian Wheel, to arrive in Hong Kong in 1986.

    The costume drama of this film only involves this scene, and this script was also written by Tianma Xingchuan Shengzhi. I just read it once and fell in love with this script.  It's a pity that he couldn't tell the truth, otherwise he would have had the idea of ??filming, but it would be great to have the opportunity to direct. Soon he injected his nonsensical ideas into this film, making this urban farce film  More absurd and uninhibited.

    Zhou Xingchi came to shoot, and Mak Chengxiong was not idle either.  Just in time for everyone to rest, he also came over to see their shooting situation. He just came to the set and saw their shooting lineup. At this time, he was very satisfied with this Xu Shang. This guy has really worked hard. The leading role is played by Liang Weilai.  , which already surprised him enough.  I actually saw Zhang Xueyou's figure, and that's not even counting.  Among their crew, Mai Chengxiong also saw a very familiar strange woman. This time Mai Chengxiong was really envious of Xu Shang's good luck.

    Because this actress is a very rare actor.  And especially in the hearts of male movie fans, she occupies a certain position. Her style is also many times, her screen image is ever-changing, and many of her works are eye-catching, sometimes as pure as a fairy, sometimes so bold that people can't help themselves, and she  He is also an actor in "The Deer and the Cauldron" that Mak Cheng-hsiung has been searching for.

    She is Qiu Shuzhen, who will be called the sexy goddess by movie fans in the future. Now she is still very reserved on the set, and her face is also slightly childish.  It seems that she is not very old now.  Di Shuzhen will only participate in the Miss Asia contest next year, and then her chin was blown by her friend and rival.  This time she missed the competition, but after sealing a door, there will be other exits. She then became famous in the film industry, especially the role of Xiao Zhao in "Heaven and Dragon Sword", which completely conquered the fans.

    Xu Shang on the side was just worried about the shooting situation and did not pay attention to Mak Chengxiong's curious eyes.Note.  At this time, Mai Chengxiong came to him.  He asked casually: "By the way, how did you find that actress? What role did she play in your film?" Then Mak Cheng-hsiung looked at Qiu Shuzhen, who was a little nervous.

    Xu Shang saw that Mak Sing-hsiung was actually interested in a small role, but he soon felt a lot of ups and downs in his heart, because Mak Sing-hung was a top performer in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, and all the actors he liked were not popular.  , he immediately said to Mai Chengxiong: "She is a distant relative of mine. She has always wanted to participate in the beauty pageant, but because of her age, she will not be able to participate until next year. I happened to be filming and watching her  The conditions were very good, so I hired her. However, she had no acting experience, so I just asked her to play a small role and gain some experience.

    Although Xu Shang said it very easily.  But he was always looking at Mai Chengxiong.  Now Mai Chengxiong is very interested in this distant relative.  At this time, he was also shocked.  Could it be that this dead girl can also have bad luck?

    I didn¡¯t expect that Xu Shang was so lucky.  He was able to discover a new star, but he didn't take Qiu Shuzhen seriously.  It's just a bit of a supporting role in the crew. It's really an extravagance.

    Mak Chengxiong¡¯s mouth moved, but no words came out. It¡¯s not that he didn¡¯t want to film with Qiu Shuzhen, but now he couldn¡¯t say it.  After all, his identity was here, as if he was trying to poach the company below, so Mai Chengxiong swallowed his words and stopped looking at Qiu Shuzhen.

    Xu Shang¡¯s eyes never left Mai Chengxiong. Seeing him hesitate to speak, he suddenly felt a little lost. He shook his head secretly and continued to look at the shooting situation.

    Although Mai Chengxiong felt sorry for not speaking, Xu Shang soon found Mai Chengxiong, and also brought Qiu Shuzhen, who was a little scared, with him.

    Xu Shang had already forgotten about this matter, but when he saw Qiu Shuzhen, he suddenly remembered it. At this time, Du Du began to make plans.  Suddenly I felt that Qiu Shuzhen should be sent to Mai Chengxiong, and I could see a hint of appreciation in Mai Chengxiong's eyes, which means that this Qiu Shuzhen can still be seen by him. If this Qiu Shuzhen can really be praised by DreamWorks  Red words.  Then he, a distant relative, would borrow the money and return a favor to Mai Chengxiong, thinking about it.  Like a pimp, he betrayed his distant relative.

    "Boss Mai, I saw you admired my cousin this morning, so I brought her over to show you. She also likes filming very much, and she also likes your videos, so she really wants to join your crew.  , she has also been exposed to filming at my place in the past two days, and she has made rapid progress. I guess she can still be competent when she comes to your place to play a supporting role." Xu Shang followed Mak Chengxiong with some guilt, haha.

    Xu Shang turned around and glared at his unresponsive cousin. Qiu Shuzhen also reacted at this time and shrank her neck in fright at his serious look.  Suddenly his big eyes flashed, and he asked Mak Seng-hsiung in surprise: "Are you Hong Kong's gold medal director Mak Sing-hsiung?! I didn't expect that you are so young, don't wear glasses, and are much more handsome than my cousin."

    Xu Shang's mind was full of black lines. At this moment, he wanted to throw this embarrassing relative out immediately. He had told her many times at home that this Mai Chengxiong was a big shot.  As long as he could catch his fancy, he would be waiting for success. Who would have thought that this distant relative with a head full of water would actually ask such a bunch of messy things, which almost made him angry.

    However, Mak Chengxiong smiled indifferently and said to Qiu Shuzhen: "What kind of great screenwriter am I? It's just those people bragging about it. I was much worse than your cousin when I first started. Fortunately, I was lucky.  I have made a lot of money to be where I am now. By the way, I wonder if you would like to film?"

    When Xu Shanggang heard what Mai Chengxiong said, his face turned pale. He thought Mai Chengxiong was angry.  But once Mak Cheng-hsiung's tone changed, the atmosphere immediately relaxed. He actually asked this little girl if she wanted to film in a movie. That meant that he had already thought of recruiting her. This was an opportunity that other actors couldn't get even if they wanted to.  How could Xu Shang hold on at this time? He wanted to hold his cousin's head and agree.

    Seeing her nodding, Mai Chengxiong was secretly happy.  Unexpectedly, just helping Xu Shang, he actually found a treasure, and immediately said: "Okay, you can come to our crew tomorrow. There happens to be a role that is very suitable for you.
