You don't understand the happiness of the director

Day after day, Yang Mi was treated and submissive, but she still had a tough mouth, saying a line from "Party A and Party B": "I won't say anything even if you kill me!"

If you don’t tell me, don’t tell me. The heroine that Lao Wang introduced to Mimi should not deceive her. Although Lao Wang’s vision in choosing movies is not very accurate, he still loves Mimi as if he were his own daughter.

Mi Mi asked Wang Quan in a cooing voice, "Brother, one of us is a director, and the other is a well-known first-line and popular film and television actress in China..."

Wang Quan stopped him, "Why do you have so many prefixes!"

"Oh, I'm just so good," Yang Mi said ruthlessly. She continued, "And you have a girlfriend. What do you think we will do if we are photographed by the paparazzi?"

Wang Quan said confidently, "Do you think Xiao Wei's salary is that of a white-collar worker? If there are paparazzi within ten kilometers, he will give an early warning. It is very safe here."

"Oh, what I mean is, if this happens, it shouldn't be a big deal if you are a director, but I am an actress. Will I have to withdraw from the industry in the future? Or is there any way to resolve it? "

Yang Mi is trying to nip things in the bud. This possibility definitely exists. No matter how serious the affair is, there is a possibility that it will be exposed, but she is really reluctant to part with her celebrity status that attracts so much attention.

Wang Quan tapped the tip of her nose. This hypothesis does make sense. It's better now. But in the future, when all the self-media is in the country and everyone can shoot celebrities, it will become unsafe outside of home.

Wang Quan said: "Didn't you notice that Sissi and I hardly interact on Weibo?"

Yang Mi: "Ah, really, I don't really care about her Weibo."

Wang Quan: "That way, if something like what you're talking about suddenly happens, and there is no evidence of our recent interactions in public or on the Internet, then we can say that we have broken up before."

"Ah, will netizens believe it? You are lying to a fool~" Yang Mi curled her lips.

Wang Quan smiled, "For those die-hard fans, as long as there is a decent explanation, they are willing to believe it. I don't think this is stupid, it is just selective innocence."

"What about the others?"

"Is it that important whether they believe it or not? As a public figure, it is impossible to satisfy everyone. It is enough to serve your own audience well and take into account some passers-by."

However, this statement may still be applicable now, but as the income of celebrities becomes higher and higher, the gap between the rich and the poor increases, and the entertainment atmosphere becomes more and more intense, the public's moral requirements for celebrities will become more and more stringent. You You can make as much money in one day as we can in a lifetime, so it’s okay to require you to be a saint with zero moral flaws.

After relaxing in the car for a while, Yang Mi sent Wang Quan directly back to Wangdao Building. Wang Quan had a good rest on the plane and could start working directly.

Yang Mi first took Wang Quan to visit Power World Media and asked him to watch two episodes of Power World's upcoming drama "Bu Bu Jing Xin".

While watching the drama, I will also report on the achievements of the past year in the power world. Through the picture recognition game, Yang Mi is now the second largest shareholder with 28% of the company's shares, far ahead of others. From Zeng Jia's attitude towards her. It can be seen that the big and small kings can be distinguished.

Power World is still dominated by idol dramas, starting with the annual hit "The Temptation of Going Home".

In addition, Yang Mi didn't tell her best friend that in addition to arranging "Jingxin" for Liu Shishi, she also invested in "The Xia Family's Three Thousand Gold" for Tang Yan, which was regarded as a gift to congratulate Tang Yan on leaving Chengtian.

In addition, Mishi has also pioneered the IP era. In addition to "Bu Bu Jing Xin", it also adapted and remade "No Time to Say I Love You" by Bandit Wo Sicun, the instantly charming "Wei Young·Floating", and the drama version is "Beauty" "Scheming", both dramas have been aired this year and have achieved good response, creating amazing profits for the company.

With Wangdao Pictures, which owns shares in Jinjiang, Power World has accumulated the rights to film and television adaptations of many well-known novels, and there will be a wave of them next year.

The problem with Mishi is that except for the boss Yang Mi, the other actors are not very good at it. They can only play supporting roles to get familiar with them first. Therefore, Li Xiaoran was hired for "Too Late to Say I Love You" and Yang Yan was hired for "Beauty's Scheming" to take the leading role. .

But Yang Mi is no longer the Xiaomi she used to be. She is now Boss Yang, a person who everyone in the industry respects as "Sister Mi". She is no longer lacking in popularity, and is now starting to develop in depth, so the TV series was shot If there is less, even if I accept it, I will be more willing to accept Qiankun's drama. Qiankun's drama has always been famous for being a serious drama with depth and easy to win awards.

At the same time, Mishi is also thinking of signing a few well-known first- and second-tier actors, such as Wan Qian, the heroine of the company's "The Age of Naked Marriage" next year, and Bai Baihe, who they worked with in "To Youth".

While cultivating the new Guadanzi she recruited, Yang Mi has recently taken her fancy to another new Guadanzi. She is a girl from Western Xinjiang who is on stage. She is already a sure bet.

This woman has a lot of potential, and she has great tolerance.

After watching two episodes of "Step by Step", Wang Quan said that he could no longer watch it. "The filming is indeed good and very attractive, but are you not afraid that Shishi will become more popular than you because of the popularity of this drama?"

"I'm not afraid, I just want to be popular as a teacher~" Yang Mi replied casually, but her brows furrowed and she looked at Wang Quan, "It shouldn't be that popular, right?"

Wang Quan smiled, "Then do you hope this drama will be popular or not?"

"Disgusting~" Yang Mi slapped Wang Quan in the face, flirting without betraying anyone. Next to her were Yang Tianzhen and Zhao Ruoyao.

Next, Wang Quan went to Inception Animation to look around, but he didn't come much here.

Inception itself is an empty shelf. It is just a unified brand used to manage the various animation companies that have invested in it. Except for the Youth Tree itself, which is located in the capital, several other companies are located across the country, including Jinmen and Chengdu. , some from Hangzhou.

CEO Yi Qiao was hired from Enlight Media. When he learned that Wang Quan was coming to the company, he quickly came out of the office. Wang Quan learned from him that the first season of the TV drama "Quiba" produced by Youth Tree will be released on Golden Eagle Cartoon and early next year. Youku.

I didn’t choose Tudou because Yang Wei, the founder of Tudou, was currently divorcing his wife. The company’s internal management was in disarray and its listing was delayed.

Another good news is that the script of Tian Xiaopeng's "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage" by Tian Xiaopeng's October Culture has been polished and is ready to be officially launched. It is expected to be completed in 2014. Before that, it will be a money-burning stage.

After chatting with Wu Hanqing from Youth Tree for a while and encouraging him, Wang Quan went upstairs. The main work today was still Wang Quan's.

The filming of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" has been completed, and the post-production work is about to start. Wang Quan will personally take care of it with several assistant directors.

The movie will be released in July 2011. Regardless of whether it is successful or not, preparations for the second part, which is expected to be released in 2013, can already begin.

Although there are still more than two years left, since Wang Quan will not lead it himself, it will be left to young people to train, so they need to be given more cycles to avoid delaying the schedule. Anyway, they are still young and have plenty of time.

When the box office results for next summer's "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" come out, as long as the results are decent, 2 and 3 will be launched, so now he has to decide on the director and focus on cultivating them in the later stage, while the others can take care of themselves. new project.

At this time, there was a list of six people on Wang Quan's desk. In addition to the four assistant directors Chen Zhengdao, Yang Qing, Li Weiran, and Wu Ershan, there were also director assistant Xiao Yang and production director Guo Fan.

Wang Quan's most trusted person is Chen Zhengdao, whom he has known for the longest time. From "Double Food" in 2008 to "Du Lala's Promotion" in 2009, he has shown his talent in controlling the rhythm of commercial films, although he usually doesn't like to talk. , but the heart is beautiful.

The four assistant directors were all in the company and together. Wang Quan called Chen Zhengdao and everyone else heard it.

Seeing this, the other three assistant directors were filled with envy, but they were not surprised. Within the company, Chen Zhengdao was regarded as the direct disciple of Director Wang Quan.

Wang Quan's first Chinese-language film script "A Story of Two Foods" was handed over to Chen Zhengdao, who had just come to the mainland, which shows that he has been cultivated and optimistic about it.

As soon as Chen Zhengdao left, Wu Ershan thought for a while and ran outside to make a phone call, "Hello, Mr. Wang..."

Yang Qing also left the room and dialed a phone number, "Hello, Sister Mi..."

In the royal office.

Chen Zhengdao sat across from Wang Quan. Wang Quan asked, "Zhengdao, do you know why I came to you?"

Chen Zhengdao probably guessed, "Is it "Ghost Blowing the Lamp 2"?"

Wang Quan nodded, "How about it? Are you confident?"

Chen Zhengdao did not bow before him, but instead looked embarrassed. This was somewhat unexpected by Wang Quan. He thought that no one in the country except Zhang Chenfeng would be able to resist the temptation of taking over "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" from him. .

"You don't want to take it?" Wang Quan asked.

Chen Zhengdao stood up and said with embarrassment, "Director, I know I shouldn't be picky or make repeated requests, but, can you let me make the third film?"

"Huh?" Wang Quan didn't expect this. He didn't want to make the second part, but wanted to make the third part. You must know that the second part of the movie version is actually the third part of the novel version, which is also the one with the best reputation and the most evocative one. .

"The reason." He asked directly.

Chen Zhengdao said coyly, "I, I'm afraid of bugs."

"Huh?" This was the answer Wang Quan didn't expect.

Chen Zhengdao added, "I am very scared. I have read the original novel, Yunnan Worm Valley, in which there are many soft and sticky reptiles. I have been afraid of bugs since I was a child, even if it is not true, it is Props, I feel physically uncomfortable just thinking about it, and I tried to overcome it, but it didn’t seem to have any effect. I was afraid that I would make those Bug Valley monsters cute and harmless, not scary at all."

As he spoke, Chen Zhengdao lowered his head. It seemed that he knew it was a bit embarrassing.

Wang Quan couldn't help laughing after hearing this, no wonder you are O, "Okay, okay, I didn't expect this reason, but it is very strong, I can accept it."

"Thank you, director, for understanding!"

"However," Wang Quan said in a twist, "the director of the third part will not be decided until the second part is filmed. By then, you will compete like other directors, and you will have no advantage."

"I have no problem. Next I will think about how to shoot the third part."

Wang Quan shook his head, "Next you have to make a movie, and it must be released next year. I hope Wangdao's total box office will exceed 2 billion next year, and I need you to boost performance."

"ah?"

"Why, you can't do it. Everyone in the company says you are my top disciple, and I'm famous for being fast. Why haven't you learned this?"

Chen Zhengdao sat down and said seriously, "I do have an original script here, which is about hypnotism, but I haven't perfected it yet. I recently found a writer to prepare for further improvement. If it is released next year, I will be very nervous."

Wang Quan spread his hands and said, "Then I don't care. If you can't get this one, just find another project that can. After the Spring Festival, the company will hold a 2011 King's Road movie promotion meeting. I will need the film title and cast by then."

With more than two months left, Chen Zhengdao was under great pressure, but he did not shirk it. The director valued him so highly and set a limit of time, which showed that he was optimistic about his ability, and he should be proud of it!

"You can go back and let Wu Ershan come in." Wang Quan waved his hand.

Wuershan? Do you want to choose him to take over?

In Chen Zhengdao's opinion, this was unreasonable and expected.

It is unreasonable because Wu Ershan and Li Weiran, two advertising giants, have their own companies and are not contracted directors by Wang Quan. Director Wang Quan is actually willing to hand over such a large project to an outsider?

As expected, in the past few months of contact with Wu Ershan, Chen Zhengdao felt that Wu Ershan had an evil spirit, and this evil spirit was very suitable for the theme of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", especially the original work "Yunnan Worm Valley" "This section probably wouldn't look that great if it were filmed by a normal person.

However, Chen Zhengdao searched around but couldn't find Wu Ershan. After asking Li Weiran, he found out that he had gone out, so he went out to look for him again.

Li Weiran asked: "What does the director want from you?"

Chen Zhengdao smiled honestly, "He asked me to make a movie next year to boost my performance."

"Aren't you talking about ghosts blowing out lamps?"

Chen Zhengdao smiled again, "I'm going to find him."

When he found Wu Ershan, he had just put down the phone and looked relieved.

"Ah, the director is looking for me?" Wu Ershan blinked, "What's the matter?"

"It's a good thing." Chen Zhengdao refused to say anything else.

After Wu Ershan entered the room, Wang Quan asked him to sit down and said, "Director Wu, you may have to work hard in the second part. How about it? Are you confident?"

"Yes, but..." Wu Ershan's entire face was like a mask of pain, "Director, can I go out and make a phone call?"

Wang Quan is surprised, why can't he agree happily?

"Fine."

After going out, Wu Ershan immediately called Huayi Wang Zhonglei's phone number.

"Hey, Mr. Wang, I just thought about it again. I'm afraid I can't accept "Painted Skin 2"."

Just two days ago, Wang Zhonglei of Huayi came to Wu'ershan. The two brothers Wu'ershan and Huayi had known each other for a long time. Huayi started out as an advertising company.

Wang Zhonglei hopes that Wu Ershan will take over the director's job of the sequel of "Painted Skin". By then, Zhou Xun, Zhao V, and Chen Kun will all return, and the project will be huge, with an investment of over 100 million.

Wu Ershan was so excited. He was just a director who had not yet released a film. He did not expect Hua Yi to think so highly of him.

He knew that this was all because he served as the assistant director of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and coupled with his achievements in the advertising industry, so Huayi was willing to take a gamble on himself.

Although Wu Ershan was moved at that time, he did not agree immediately. It was not until today when he saw Chen Zhengdao being called in by Wang Quan that he knew that the hope of directing "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" was gone, so he turned to Huayi. Without "Ghost 2", "Painting" 2》is also excellent!
