I’m Almost Losing to a Muggle

Chapter 670 You must never compromise with me (Monthly ticket plus 625)

If you want to say that the most popular Hong Kong film directors after two thousand years, then Mak Zhaohui and Zhuang Wenqi have to be mentioned.

There is another saying in the industry that the products produced by Maizhuang must be high-quality goods.

They are definitely not in vain. Infernal Affairs, Initial D and Eavesdropping series, any one of them is well received and well received.

It can be said that in the Hougang film era, the Maizhuang Group carried half of the sky in Hong Kong films.

This time, Zhuang Wenqi shot this Unparalleled, if it wasn't for too many big scenes, which made the investment too high, and because of the sensitive subject matter in the early stage, it took three years to revise and review, in fact, he would not worry about finding someone to invest of.

Producer Huang Bin advised him to change, but he refused to change, which made him very unhappy.

However, this is not the first time the two have collaborated. After the final in-depth talk, they both made up their minds to find a producer who really supports them and doesn't judge them.

Originally, Guangjin Pictures had an idea, and had cooperated many times before.

But the problem is that they want Zhuang Wenqi to compromise more.

Just when Zhuang Wenqi was hesitating whether to give Guang Jin some face, they contacted Lin Dong through Brother Fa - a strange investment circle who doesn't care about anything after investing.

Kleist released an animated film called Rock and Roll Husky, which lost 300 million yuan, and he was never seen to kill the director with a knife.

If it's a big scene, it can be appropriate...

No, there's no need to cut it. I hope there will be more big scenes, otherwise the filming won't look good. Lin Dong hurriedly stopped him.

A big scene can cost millions of dollars.

You must never compromise with me.

unnecessary!

In order to be able to pass the trial better...

This is not something I consider. Director Zhuang, Mr. Huang, you are actually more professional than me. Although I also directed a movie, it was completed with the support of several seniors. You should be more professional than me. I understand more clearly that if a good movie wants to achieve a higher degree of completion, no compromise can be made anywhere.

He said that you are more professional, but in fact, Lin Dong used the example of Xin Shushan to tell them.

I succeeded because I didn't compromise on the quality of the film.

This is indeed not a fool, it is precisely because everyone did not compromise that five versions were cut out in the end.

Seeing that several people were relieved, Lin Dong felt that he needed to say a few more words.

When I was in school, my teacher told me about the interdependence between commercial films and literary films. Film is an art, and what can represent this aspect is actually literary films. Commercial films cannot represent it. My New Shushan It doesn't mean that, only by endowing the core of film art can we fundamentally solve the problem of the existence of the film market...

Usually, I am used to fooling around, and if I fool a professional, I can still fool the other party for a while.

Needless to say, Zhuang Wenqi and Huang Bin are the people behind the scenes of the movie and fundamentally affect the production of the movie. For people like Fa Ge and Guo Tianwang, Lin Dong's words are even more deceptive.

They are tools.

It is a tool that serves the director's expression.

Whether a play is good or not has nothing to do with them.

The script is written by the people behind the scenes, and the actors are the result of the struggle between the casting director, director, screenwriter, producer, etc. When it comes to filming, the director counts.

Why in the end, the results of bad movies are all blamed on them.

If these behind-the-scenes can really do what Lin Dong said, pay attention to the harmonious coexistence between business and literature, and pay attention to plot logic and cultural connotation, they will not be bad movies one after another.

You can't really blame the actors for bad movies.

If you have to say that an actor is not good at acting, then you don't have to let him act.

Except for those bastard actors who said 1234 to the camera, most of the actors actually played their own normal level.

We will try our best. I can only say that I will do my best. Director Zhuang Wenqi was almost overwhelmed.

He felt that he met the best Bole in his life.

Guangjin Pictures is already very good in the industry, but after using Kleist, who the hell still remembers Guangjin.

In this case, let's discuss the funds needed for this film. Lin Dong accepted it as soon as he saw it, and he didn't dare to give advice on specific shooting. In case he was really talented, just a few words What to do if you create a blockbuster.

What if Zhuang Wenqi's epiphany is directly promoted by a certain sentence of his, and he becomes a major director of commercial films.

It's like this, we will save as much as possible... Huang Bin was shocked, and he took the lead in confirming the ticket, explaining the overall cost style of the crew.

In the early days, Hong Kong film directors went north to enter the mainland, and won the favor of many coal bosses.

When I met sand sculptures who were stupid and rich and only wanted to talk about scripts with female stars, those Hong Kong film directors were very ruthless. An umbrella was thousands of dollars, and a hat was thousands of dollars. It all started at that time.

More than ten years have passed, and many capitals still have a very bad impression of Hong Kong film directors.

Mr. Huang, there's no need for that. The money that should be spent must be spent, especially if you don't wrong the people who actually work. I don't like the way of saving money from people at the bottom. Lin Dong quickly dispelled their idea.

Their so-called provinces did not necessarily save money in filming as he wished.

Nor do they want to save on their share.

then what should we do?

Then reduce the treatment of middle and low-level cast members.

Just give so much, a bunch of people in the film and television base are waiting to eat, if you don't do it, others are willing to do it.

According to Yu Yu's calculation, this movie may cost 300 million yuan. Huang Bin observed Lin Dong's face, and saw that there was nothing unusual about him, so he continued: If you save a little, 200 million six-seven is about the same.

Then let's count at 300 million. How much money has been raised so far? Lin Dong didn't want to worry about trivial matters of 30 to 20 million. He just wanted to lose a deal and get some initial funds back first.

Guangjin has some intentions. If Kleist is willing to invest, they can get 100 million. Huang Bin said.

Okay, that's pretty good. Let's give 200 million, which will account for 60% of the share. The remaining 10% will be handled flexibly by a few people. It means that you can share it.

After experiencing the battle of Xinshu Mountain, Lin Dong has come to his senses.

Don't expect to become a fat man all at once, the best way is to bring in some other capital to help him take risks.

Anyway, as long as you lose money, even if you lose a little bit.

Several people breathed a sigh of relief.

Their original plan was to ask for 5%, and the main director should at least get 5% of the box office. With Fa Ge and Zhuang Wenqi, 5% is definitely not much.

I didn't expect Mr. Lin to be so generous. He gave 10% without waiting for them to ask.
