Looking at Lin Jingjing.
Jiang Gangmeng said to Hu Yibao.
"Mr. Hu, this is a sign of a big box office success!"
The script alone can make professional actors burst into laughter, so what will the effect be when it is filmed?
It will definitely be a hit!
More importantly, the plot of Charlotte's Troubles is very coherent and smooth, with connections everywhere and the details are very well done.
Jiang Gangmeng is becoming more and more optimistic about Xia Luo's troubles.
Without hesitation, Jiang Gangmeng followed up.
"Mr. Hu, let me be your assistant director!"
"I'll lend you my crew too. Film your drama first, then mine."
Seeing such a good script, Jiang Gangmeng was a little reluctant to give it up, but he was also worried that Hu Yibao would make a bad film.
It's not that I don't believe in Hu Yibao, it's just that Hu Yibao had no filming experience before this.
He may be a genius as a scriptwriter, but not necessarily a genius as a director.
Jiang Gangmeng thought that if he could become an assistant director, he would be able to help Hu Yibao film Xia Luo's Troubles.
"Then it's Director Jiang." Hu Yibao immediately smiled and nodded.
With the addition of a heavyweight director like Jiang Gangmeng, there will definitely be a boost to the box office.
Moreover, Jiang Gangmeng is considered a big shot in the film industry and can make a living everywhere.
It can save a lot of trouble for myself, a newbie in the film industry.
"It's a pleasure to work with you!" Jiang Gangmeng smiled and shook hands with Hu Yibao.
"Let me take another look at the script!"
Jiang Gangmeng sat down directly, picked up Xia Luo's troubled script, and began to read it with relish.
Maybe it's because the script is so funny.
Next.
After Jiang Gangmeng finished laughing, Lin Jingjing laughed.
Lin Jingjing finished laughing, and Jiang Gang laughed fiercely.
"Hahaha!!"
"Gah, gah, gah!!"
"Hahaha!!"
"Gah, gah, gah!!"
The laughter came one after another, with ups and downs.
Attracted a lot of people's attention.
They all tilted their heads and looked over here.
A look of curiosity!
"What happened?"
"How come Director Jiang's smile is so magical!"
"This is the first time I've seen Lin Jingjing laugh so hard."
"They seem to be looking at something."
"What are you looking at?"
The voices of the spectators are getting louder and louder.
Jiang Gangmeng suddenly raised his head, and seriousness replaced the smile on his face.
"What are you all doing here? Have nothing to do?"
"Hurry up and set up the venue for me and arrange the personnel."
Intimidated by Jiang Gangmeng's majesty, the photographers, stagehands and other members of Jiang Gangmeng's team immediately dispersed.
Jiang Gangmeng lowered his head and continued to read Charlotte's troubled script.
soon!
"Hahaha!!"
"What a sin!!"
The hearty laughter rang out again.
More than twenty minutes later.
Jiang Gangmeng closed the script, still with a smile on his face, but he spoke to Hu Yibao in a serious expression.
"I have read the entire script of Charlotte's Troubles."
"perhaps"
"It can exceed one billion!"
"Ten billion!?" Lin Jingjing had just finished reading and when she heard Jiang Gangmeng's voice, she couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.
Nowadays.
The whole of China.
There are only two movies that have grossed over 1 billion.
And they're all action movies.
As for the two comedy films that broke 500 million, according to insider information, they were both bloated and only barely broke 500 million!
In the end, I just managed to break even.
This billion
Isn't this a fairy tale?
Of course, Lin Jingjing also believed that Charlotte's troubles was a good script, but there were too many precedents.
"Yes!" Jiang Gangmeng nodded affirmatively and reiterated, "One billion as a minimum!"
"Ten billion!" Lin Jingjing sighed slightly.
If an actress can star in a movie with a box office of over 1 billion, then she will have a place in the entire entertainment industry.
Lin Jingjing was deeply touched by this.
When I just debuted two years ago, I attended a banquet and the organizer didn't even prepare a stool for me.
Later, he starred in a movie with a box office of over 100 million yuan. He attended the same banquet and the same organizer directly arranged himself in the front row, sitting on a leather seat.
The entertainment industry is very realistic.
There is no fantasy.
When you are at your lowest point, you are surrounded by bad people.
When you are successful, you are surrounded by good people.
therefore
Lin Jingjing said to Hu Yibao without any hesitation, "Mr. Hu, I want to act in your movie without any compensation!"
Jiang Gangmeng glanced at Lin Jingjing and was not surprised at her decision.
Box office, awards.
This is the confidence that allows actors to run rampant in the entertainment industry.
As for the face and figure?
That's just a stepping stone.
Some people knock on doors all their lives and sleep in countless beds, but still leave in disgrace.
"Welcome Miss Lin to join us!" Hu Yibao said with a smile.
After these two days of contact, Hu Yibao personally agrees with Lin Jingjing's acting skills.
Very solid.
It's just as to which specific character it is in Charlotte's Troubles.
Ma Dongmei.
Qiuya.
Sister Na.
Charlotte's mother.
Hu Yibao has not yet made a final decision, but personally prefers Qiu Ya
"Thank you, Mr. Hu!" Lin Jingjing said gratefully.
This time it was really an unexpected surprise.
After all, the reason she came to star in the MV this time was initially just to be able to play the female lead in Jiang Gangmeng's next film.
"Congratulations, Miss Lin!" Jiang Gangmeng congratulated immediately.
"Thank you, Director Jiang!" Lin Jingjing said with a smile.
Jiang Gangmeng's gaze then fell on Hu Yibao.
"Mr. Hu, Charlotte's troubles, how much do you plan to invest?"
Just after becoming an assistant director, he couldn't help but ask about investment.
"Fifty million!" Hu Yibao stretched out his hand and replied.
"Fifty million?" Jiang Gang thought for a moment, then slowly said, "This is a bit too little, unless the actors don't want to be paid, and the shooting period is short."
Current actor.
The starting price for the third line is 10 million.
The top ones will directly negotiate with you a guaranteed 100 million yuan and a share of the box office revenue.
This results in 60 to 70 percent of the investment in a play going to the actors' salaries, with the rest being used for filming the movie.
It is precisely this unhealthy trend that has caused domestic films to become increasingly worse.
"This movie is not about idol stars," Hu Yibao said with a calm smile, "We want to make a quality movie, not an assembly line one."
From the beginning to the end, Hu Yibao never thought of inviting any idol star.
There are only about ten characters in total.
It should be enough if you just collect it yourself.
Jiang Gangmeng agreed greatly with Hu Yibao's words, and felt like he had found a close friend.
Being a director yourself means pursuing the goal of making quality movies!
Jiang Gangmeng then stood up and handed the script of Charlotte's Troubles to Hu Yibao.
"Okay, let's talk about this later, let's just shoot the current MV first!"
The filming of Huo Yuanjia MV started.
