Entertainment, I just like making movies

Chapter 41 Prepare for a rainy day

Hengyu Media.

In the general manager's office, Fang Ziheng took out a thick stack of 4A paper and handed it to Lin Feifei, Andy, and Wen Muye.

"Take a look, this is what Hengyu is preparing for this year and filming next year for movies and TV series."

"Four Famous Catchers!"

"Young Bao Zheng!"

The three of them exclaimed together. Lin Feifei and Andy were surprised that the first TV series controlled by Hengyu was actually "Young Bao Zheng".

As a director, Wen Muye never expected that the company would actually shoot a costume blockbuster "Four Famous Catchers".

I'm going!

A costume blockbuster, the kind with an investment of over 100 million?

The three of them took the script and read it at a glance.

"Zi Heng, why did you choose the subject of Bao Qingtian?"

Lin Feifei looked through the synopsis of the script of "Young Bao Zheng", raised her head and asked: "There is Jin Chaoqun's old drama before, and then there is the "Young Bao Qingtian" trilogy. Is this series too much?"

Andy also looked over, his pretty face covered in makeup and makeup falling into doubt and thought.

Among the many detective themes in Chinese, "Detective Detective Dee" and "Bao Qingtian" have been the most criticized, almost to the point of swelling.

How can I put it, because the subject matter is attractive enough and the IP is famous, as long as the quality of the drama passes the standard, it is easy for the production to worry about no one buying it.

Over time, these two themes became more and more prevalent.

But fortunately now, big internet movies have not appeared yet, and the subject of "Bao Qingtian" has not become widespread.

"The main reason for choosing "Young Bao Zheng" is to pave the way for "Four Famous Catchers"."

"paving?"

Fang Ziheng smiled and clarified the doubts of the two female actors: ""Four Famous Catchers" requires at least three films. The production cost of costume dramas is too high. In addition, there are so many costume blockbusters released in the past few years that there are no more. People dare to touch the theme of ancient costumes easily."

""Famous Catchers" is a very good subject matter. Since Hengyu decided to make a costume film, it must be a high-quality film and a blockbuster."

What is a premium product?

What is a blockbuster?

"If you want to produce a high-quality costume blockbuster, in addition to large investment and a large cast, you must also have sophisticated and exquisite costumes, wonderful plots and stories, actors who fit the roles, an excellent production team, and a series of other factors."

He pointed at the "Four Famous Catchers" script in Wen Muye's hands and smiled slightly: "We at Hengyu have no experience in making costume blockbusters, so we have to choose a similar costume TV series to practice our skills."

""Young Bao Zheng" is also a two-part drama. The historical background and "Four Famous Catchers" are both in the Song Dynasty. If the two dramas are prepared together, a lot of money can be saved for the service alone."

"In addition, I deliberately added a small number of scenes from Six Doors and "Four Famous Catchers" to the plot of "Young Bao Zheng".

After the TV series "Young Bao Zheng" is released, and the movie promotion of "The Four Famous Catchers" is launched, do you think there will be any plans to link up the two dramas? "

After finishing his plan in one breath, Fang Ziheng leaned back and leaned on the boss's chair, waiting for the adoring eyes of the two beauties.

Thinking too much.

The two beauties ignored him, lowered their heads and continued reading the script.

On the other hand, Wen Muye's eyes shone after reading the script of "Four Famous Catchers" and he looked over with admiration.

I go!

You are a grown man, why are you just joining in the fun!

Fang Ziheng had goosebumps all over his body, coughed slightly and said: "Old Wen, do you want to direct the TV series "Young Bao Zheng"?"

"Can I do it?" Wen Mu was overjoyed and looked a little uneasy.

He hasn't graduated from Nortel's directing department yet, so he really doesn't have the confidence to direct a costume TV series.

"It's okay. You will be filming "Detective Chinatown" first. Then you will be responsible for the drama of "Young Bao Zheng". I am looking for a better action director." Fang Ziheng waved his hand to dispel his worries.

"That relationship is great, I'm willing to give it a try!"

After a while, the two female actors finally finished reading the script of "Young Bao Zheng".

Lin Feifei's eyebrows were stretched, her eyes were bright, and she gave a thumbs up and praised: "The script is very good, the plot is compact, fascinating, and every link is linked.

This is it, as the first TV series controlled by our Hengyu. "

As she said that, she looked at the handsome and calm Fang Ziheng in front of her, and couldn't figure out why he was so smart, writing excellent scripts one after another.

It's a pity that he is too young!

Fang Ziheng naturally couldn't see through Sister Lin's thoughts. He would look at Andy, waiting for the cold and proud young lady to give her advice.

He thinks he is not a good manager, but he also knows that a company must not be a dictatorship.

Sometimes the opinions of subordinates are really important.

Andy put down the script and smiled lightly: "This drama is indeed very good and can be the company's first main-controlled film and television drama.

I'm going to Hengliang to visit the cast of "Palace" in a few days, and I'm just in time to contact Hengliang's major workshops to prepare for the costumes of the two dramas in advance. "

As Hengyu's daily manager, Andy can see Fang Ziheng's intentions. The two dramas are being prepared at the same time. The TV drama is in front and the movie is in the back. The linkage of the plots not only saves production costs, but also saves publicity resources.

The boss has made a decision, and she, a wage earner, must catch up.

but

Company funds?

Thinking of this, Andy's cold eyes narrowed slightly and said: "With "Detective Chinatown" and "Step by Step" from Chinatown, the money in the company's account seems not enough."

"Mr. Fang, when will the share of "The Unknown" be released?"

"I'll go to China Film Academy in a few days and I'll ask Director Han."

Fang Ziheng stood up and came to the window, took out a cigarette and said with a smile: "Don't worry about the funds. These two dramas are only doing preliminary preparations this year."

"How much money does the company have on its books now?"

"thirty million!"

Andy responded and then dictated a list of the company's expenses.

When Hengyu was founded, Fang Ziheng still had a total of 63 million in savings, all of which he earned from collecting colorful bells while he was in college.

"The Unknown" project was established, Hengyu invested 5 million, and another 3 million was invested in later promotion.

Within half a year of its establishment, the company purchased nine vehicles, including an Audi A6, two commercial vehicles worth about 300,000 yuan, three Jinbei vans, and three medium-sized cargo trucks, and spent nearly 3 million more.

For the half-floor office building that Hengyu now occupies, a one-time rent of 2 million was paid.

In addition, the film production department and the filming props department, two money-consuming departments, purchased a large number of equipment for filming movies and TV series.

In addition to the 10 million investment in "Palace", it is 63 million, and after going around and around, only 30 million is left!

Hengyu Media is a poor group now!

However, the employees below are not worried about the company's development at all. "The Unknown" has grossed 230 million at the box office, and Fang Ziheng's new movie is about to be launched.

In the eyes of employees, Hengyu’s future is bright!

In the next few days, Fang Ziheng worked hard, handling company affairs at Hengyu during the day, and going home to polish the script of "Detective Chinatown" at night.

In a few days, he refined the script twice.

Most of the main roles have been decided, and there are only two or three roles that still need to be auditioned.

The most important among them are the three characters of Quintiles, No. 1 Axiang, and little sister Sinuo.

Fang Ziheng originally wanted Huang Bo to star in Quintiles, but later he found out about Xiao Yang on the Internet, and then he was in a dilemma.

Xiao Yang was born in the 1980s and is considered 30 years old this year. With a little makeup, he can meet the greasy style in the play.

The only thing I'm worried about is that Xiao Yang's acting skills won't pass the test!

Huang Bo's acting skills are fine, and he can also handle the issue of gaining some fat and reducing the greasiness.

The problem is, in "Detective Chinatown", Quintiles played by Xiao Yang can indeed be called one of the soul characters of the movie.

Fang Ziheng thought about it and decided to audition!
