You don't understand the happiness of the director

Wang Zhonglei never expected that Wu Ershan would fall out of favor faster than he could turn the page in a book. He had just agreed happily, but then regretted it a few minutes later. He was acting like a monkey!

Wang Zhonglei suppressed his anger and said, "Director Wu, is it because the royal power doesn't let people go? I remember that you didn't sign with their company, and he is still your junior brother. Why, you can't decide whether you stay or go, and you have to let a second Teenagers decide?”

Exciting general method.

This is something that Wu Ershan won't eat. "Mr. Wang, I can't help it this time. Let's do it next time. I will definitely do it next time."

"Wait a minute," Wang Zhonglei called his assistant, gave a few instructions, and then began to delay Wu Ershan, "Director Wu, are you not satisfied with the price? In this way, on the original basis, add another 1 million, this The price can be said to be very high, and many famous directors don’t have this price.”

"Mr. Wang, this is not a matter of money. To tell you the truth, Director Wang Quan is going to hand over "Ghost Blowing the Lamp 2" to me to direct. This is a very precious opportunity for me to improve myself and become a butterfly. Maybe this happened."

Wang Zhonglei, no wonder, huh, he is favored by the royal power and looks down on us Huayi.

But funds are easy to find, and directors who can make blockbusters are rare. Since Wang Quan has decided to let Wu Ershan take over the multi-billion-dollar project "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", it shows that he recognizes Wu Ershan's ability, so Wang Zhonglei cannot Let him go.

Even if you want to grab it, grab it!

"Director Wu, I'm sorry. Our company announced this matter just after the phone call. You have already been @ed on Weibo. You don't want to make us Huayi lose face, do you?"

"Ah!" Wu Ershan didn't expect that Wang Zhonglei would do this trick of killing first and then showing off. He must have done it when he was on the phone just now. He was forcing himself to submit!

"In addition, I also sent the Weibo screenshot to Wang Quan. I think he will also be able to be beautiful as an adult."

Wu Ershan walked into the office dejectedly, and Wang Quan had just put down his mobile phone. He had already seen Huayi's official Weibo.

"I'm sorry, director, I didn't expect you to choose me, so I agreed to Hua Yi in advance."

Wang Quan: "So you plan to reject Hua Yi after knowing that I chose you."

Wu Ershan said nothing and acquiesced.

Wang Quan: "In business, I think no matter what kind of cooperation, it is the contract that is implemented on paper. Verbal promises are like fart in our circle. Don't pay too much attention to it."

Wu Ershan perked up. Did Wang Quan decide to break up with Huayi and still insist on using me?

Bole! Benefactor!

Wang Quan continued: "So you should sign the contract for "Painted Skin 2" with Huayi as soon as possible. Before that, I will not announce the director of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp 2". This will cause two big companies to compete for you at the same time. , you must take the opportunity to give him a hard blow, otherwise I will be very angry."

Wu Ershan's mouth moved. He was still abandoned by the king. He might be doing it for the dignity of the king, he might not want to break up with Hua Yi, or he might feel that it doesn't matter whether he is there or not.

"Thank you, director, for your cultivation during this time~" Wu Ershan bowed to his junior brother. In just a few months, his understanding of the film industry has improved by leaps and bounds, laying the foundation for becoming an excellent director in the future.

However, he still refused to give up and asked again, "What about the third part..."

Wang Quan, "The third part will have to wait until after the second part. We still welcome capable directors to compete for this position, regardless of whether they have signed a contract with Wang Dao or not."

Wu Ershan also left, and Wang Quan only had four cards left in his hand, Yang Qing or Li Weiran.

The two of them are about the same strength, both slightly inferior to Chen Zhengdao and Wu Ershan. Li Weiran is older, more mature and stable, Wang Quan's senior brother, with a professional background, and his roots are Miaohong. Yang Qing is relatively wild, although he is a bit deviant. , but he was also able to keep his composure and did a great job in "Drug War" for Lin Chaoxian as the assistant director.

Wang Quan finally decided that it was Yang Qing, so he dialed Yang Qing's number.

Yang Qing had just come out of the office of the power generation Yang Mi at this time. After his hard persuasion, Yang Mi finally accepted his invitation to star in the small-budget movie "Love Is Not Blind", but he had to wait until he finished filming. of a blockbuster film.

Their surname is Yang. "Crazy Supermarket" gave them both a solid foothold in the film industry, so Yang Mi is willing to give Yang Qing this face.

Yang Qing made a comparison. Although "Ghost 2" was overtaken by Lao Chen, he still has to prove his worth in front of director Quan. He works hard to make movies and make money. In this way, "Ghost 3" may still have hope for him. .

He was happy when Wang Quan called.

"Xiao Yang, come to my office."

"ah?"

Yang Qing entered the office anxiously. Wang Quan first asked, "If, I mean if I asked you to film "Ghost Blowing the Lamp 2", would you find various reasons to reject me?"

Yang Qing was suddenly hit by happiness. Isn't it Old Chen? How could he become me?

"Why, how could it be possible? I have always dreamed of taking over as the director of you. I..." Yang Qing was about to happily take over this arduous and glorious task when something suddenly occurred to him.

Oh, let me rub it, Sister Mi!

"What about that, director, can we discuss it? I still have a film on hand. After I finish filming this film, I will start preparing for "Ghost 2". Don't worry, this film will be made with a small budget and can be completed this year. "

Wang Quan asked, "Is it the "33 Days of Love" you proposed before?"

"right."

"Has the actor been confirmed?"

"The heroine is Sister Mi, and she has already agreed. Filming can begin after she finishes the movie she is working on."

Wang Quan shook his head, "My request is that from now on, you will devote yourself to the preparation of "Ghost 2" and not be distracted from other work. So Xiao Yang, even this time..."

"Director, I won't do the movie if I don't want to get lost in love!" Yang Qing stood up and almost threw himself at Wang Quan's desk, "I want to shoot "Ghost 2", give me a chance~"

Wang Quan smiled and said, "Then how do you want me to explain to Mimi."

"this……"

Wang Quan advised him, "The story of "33 Days of Love" is also good. When I bought the copyright, I also made some publicity suggestions."

"Well, I know, Double 11 Singles' Day, I think it's very interesting, so I'm thinking of releasing it in November this year."

Wang Quan, "Then concentrate on preparing for this film, and at the same time, you can also settle down."

Yang Qing knew that he had no chance. He had a chance, but because he couldn't calm down, he went to find Sister Mi in advance. Alas, it was fate.

Now that Wang Quan had no choice, he called Li Weiran in. Fortunately, he had no other projects in hand, so the matter was settled.

Li Weiran was still in a daze, but he didn't expect that he would finally receive this overwhelming wealth.

He decided that he would devote himself to "Ghost 2" in the next few years. He must seize this opportunity to reach the sky. In the future, his name may also be left in the history of movies!

But he still has a question, "Director, I haven't signed a contract with the company yet, this..."

Wang Quan, "Directing "Ghost 2" has nothing to do with whether or not to sign with Wang Dao. Although I will pay more attention to the contracted director, I will definitely supervise the whole process of a project of the level of "Ghost 2", so there is no difference."

Wang Quan spoke frankly, which moved Li Weiran even more. This is a sincere person who only has movies in his heart. How lucky he is to have Wang Quan in Chinese-language movies!

"Director, I want to sign under our royal banner, you, you want me!"

Wang Quan: "You should also know the pros and cons of signing a contract with a director, right? Are you sure you have thought it through?"

"Yeah!" Li Weiran nodded.

The contracted director can receive a salary every month to ensure that he will not starve to death in the capital, and there is no restriction on taking outside work. However, the company will take a part of the commission. At the same time, the company will help you negotiate for a higher salary and provide legal support throughout the process. , if you encounter the bad behavior of the other company, you can even use the company's resources to seek justice. This is the feeling that there is someone behind it!

Be practical!

Now that he had thought everything through, Wang Quan asked Clara to take him to the legal office to sign a brokerage contract.

As for the contract for "Ghost 2", because the investment scale will be determined based on the performance of "Ghost 1", it will have to wait until August next year before signing. However, Wang Quan's personal credibility does not need to be questioned. He said that it is you, unless you are halfway through. Refuse, so Li Weiran can now get the script of Tian Xia Ba Sing to make preparations.

Just as Li Weiran was about to leave, Chen Zhengdao ran in happily.

This frightened Li Weiran, "Director Chen, you don't want to go back on your word, you said you won't guide me!"

Wang Quan has just talked about Chen Zhengdao's rejection of "Ghost 2" because he was afraid of insects. I feel that this incident will definitely become a joke in the industry.

Chen Zhengdao gasped, "No, no, no, I'm here to tell the director that I know what to shoot next."

"Oh, tell me."

Chen Zhengdao, "I found that our company has the rights to adapt "101 Proposals". I think I can film this. I loved this drama when I was a child! I am confident that I can do it well."

Li Weiran breathed a sigh of relief and hurried out with Clara.

Wang Quan asked Chen Zhengdao to sit down, but he didn't expect that after going round and round, the project would come back to him.

"This story focuses on the male and female protagonists. Do you have any ideas?"

"The male protagonist must be ugly, uh, not good-looking anyway, and the female protagonist must be very, very beautiful, so as to form a contrast!" Chen Zhengdao came up with a very bold combination, "What do you think of Teacher Huang Bo and Miss Liu Yifei? .”

"puff!"

Wang Quan, who was drinking tea, sprayed out in one gulp. Fortunately, Chen Zhengdao knew how to dodge.

"You really dare to think about it!"

"Think about the scene where Teacher Huang Bo proposes to Miss Liu," Chen Zhengdao shuddered, "It's so impactful!"

Wang Quan shook his head, "I think Sissi would definitely be willing to act with her old classmates, but it's a pity that she will be busy with "The Mountain Runner" throughout next year and there will be no schedule."

Of course, if you squeeze in a squeeze, you can definitely find a schedule. After all, Mountain Runner starts filming in July, and she is still idle in the first half of the year.

But Sissi is planning to live in the Northeast for a while. At the same time, she has contacted Chen Xiaoqing and asked him to take the crew of "A Bite of China" to the Northeast to shoot materials, so that she can enjoy delicious food and experience life at the same time without delaying both.

Chen Zhengdao said regretfully, "Then I can only choose another person, but the heroine must be very, very beautiful. Director, do you have any recommendations?"

He knew that Wang Quan was very knowledgeable about beauty.

Wang Quan thought for a while, "Mainland actresses, I think Fan Bingbing and Gao Yuanyuan are the most beautiful. As for who to choose, you can decide for yourself. Anyway, it must be released next year."

The next few years were the years of rapid market development. Cinemas attracted many new audiences. These audiences were inexperienced and had little judgment. They were fooled by many bad movies, creating many magical phenomena with high box office and low reputation, thus also These audiences have gradually lost confidence in Chinese-language films. When talking about Chinese-language films, they grit their teeth and say: bad films! They're all bad movies!

Wang Quan hopes that all capable and talented directors can make films like his own. I make at least one film every year. You can't be too different. If you don't occupy the mainland film market, you will be occupied by garbage from outside that can't even make commercial films. Got it!

The matter of directing the sequel to Ghost Blowing the Lantern has finally been settled. Wang Quan has begun to worry about Wang Dao's film list for next year. He said that he hopes Wang Dao can win 2 billion box office next year. However, the total box office of Chinese films this year is currently only 3.8 billion. It is expected that it will eventually have a box office of 2 billion. 5 billion.

It is difficult, but Wang Quan is not aimless. Gui Blowing the Lantern can solve at least half of it, and the other half depends on other directors to show their talents.

In addition to Wang Dao himself, Jiahe's works are also an important part of the box office.

This year Jiahe's answer sheet is "The Treasure Hunt", and next year there will be two works, also pickled Chinese wool.

For "Horror Live", the directors we are looking for are Liang Lemin and Lu Jianqing, who have already been signed by Jiahe.

The other one is "New World", which is known as the Korean version of "Infernal Affairs". In order to avoid being accused of plagiarism, Shi Nansheng directly invited the screenwriters of "Infernal Affairs", Mak Siu-fai and Zhuang Wenqiang, to direct. Wang Quan provided the concept and they enriched the plot. It's now powered on.

We can’t blame Wang Quan for being too busy. Korean movies are famous for their boldness in filming. The scale of many of their works is not suitable for mainland adaptation, but they are just right in Hong Kong, and they can be regarded as making the best use of them.

Therefore, Golden Harvest recruits Hong Kong film experts, while getting Korean film ideas from Wang Quan for localization, and at the same time, it also cooperates with Wang Dao to develop co-productions.

Wang Quan talked with Shi Nansheng on the phone for half an hour and confirmed that both films can be completed next year. As for the mainland review issue, he will handle it and try to keep it as original as possible. Now he can talk pretty well.

Stretching out, it was almost time to get off work in the afternoon. Wang Quan walked to Yu Feihong's office, and sure enough, she was there too.

The film "To Youth" has been completed and will be Wang Quan's first film next year. Yu Feihong is waiting for Wang Quan to come back and watch the film together to give his opinions.

Wang Quan suggested, "It's better for us to watch it with outside audiences. I'm going to bring the foreign test screening evaluation model to China. I also named it a movie blind box."

He explained, "When the audience goes to the cinema, there will be a screening room like this. It doesn't tell you what is being shown. You are invited to go in and watch it for free. You also have to sign a confidentiality agreement and write a questionnaire after watching it. This kind of blind box It will appear randomly in movie theaters across the country, and "To Youth" will be the first experimental subject of this system. What does Sister Feihong think?"

Yu Feihong noticed that Wang Quan locked the door after entering, so he stood on tiptoes and hooked Wang Quan's neck, "I do~"
