Director Zhang Ping has experienced a lot of vicissitudes since the last time I saw him in Europe. He is in his 30s and has completely white hair. If I remember correctly last time, he was casting for "Urban Exorcist", but unfortunately the box office suffered.
This time Zhang Ping was more cautious and more polite when he saw Qin Kun.
Because Zhang Ping knew that the reason why he became famous was because this young man made a guest appearance in his movie. No acting skills can compare to reality!
"Qin Mr. Qin, this is the script, do you want to read it?"
At the Ghostbuster Inn, Qin Kun was sitting on a big tiger-skin chair, flipping through the script.
The format of the script is different from that of the novel. The text written is scene-oriented and not full. Qin Kun put it down after flipping through a few pages, and said, "Director Zhang, I'm a layman, and now I want to confirm something with you."
"What kind of movie do you want to make?"
Zhang Ping was taken aback.
Countless rhetoric and ambitions flashed through my mind, and turned into a few dry words: "Others will remember."
Qin Kun nodded: "Wang Gan mentioned to me that 3000 million investment is a lot, but not much."
Zhang Ping bit his lip, feeling extremely unconfident: "The investment I brought in is at most that much."
"What about the investor's request?"
"Arrange three actors he wants to support."
"How about the three actors?"
"..."
Qin Kun handed over a cigarette: "Is it difficult to make money?"
Director Zhang is like a person who fell into the water. Hearing this, he immediately grabbed the driftwood: "It's not difficult, it's not difficult! Movies with niche themes, as long as they are made with care, there will be miraculous results!"
Qin Kun said: "If these three actors are not needed, will investors still invest?"
Director Zhang smiled stiffly: "Yes, they are all friendly friends, 500W can still be given away..."
At the entrance of the small shop, a Mercedes-Benz business car stopped, and a man got out of the car, holding his daughter in his arms, and beside him was his lovely wife.Followed by a man and a woman, the man is Han Yao, the priest's true biography, and the woman is Han Yao's girlfriend, Tu Xuanxuan.
"Qin Kun, what are you looking for me for?"
Young Master Linjiang is divided into three classes, Tu Yong is the first class, and all others are third class.
The only aristocratic family in Linjiang City, the Tu family.
Tu Yong came with his family.
After seeing Qin Kun, Tu Yong was very upset. This person often brings back bad memories for him.For example, his bodyguard was killed by him face to face, for example, he went to Japan and was locked up in the Kanagawa Demon Sword Museum, for example, his wife and daughter were kidnapped near the old gas station in Linjiang City.
But Tu Yong knows that Qin Kun is a kind of person with ability, and this kind of person usually plays the role of hitting the nobleman.
Hateful, but indispensable.
The little girl was very cute and had a good tutor. She called out "Hello, Uncle Qin" coquettishly, and sat on Tu Yong's lap peacefully.
Qin Kun touched the little girl's head and handed a piece of jade to her.
"So cute, what's your name?"
"My name is Rongrong..."
The little girl watched Qin Kun hand over a piece of bright red jade, she liked it very much, but was embarrassed to accept it, and looked at her father eagerly.
Tu Yong took a look and said with a smile, "Blood Lama."
Qin Kun smiled.Knowledgeable people are different. Tibetan blood jade is rumored to be stuffed into the throat of a Tibetan monk after death, and it is transformed by blood infection, which is extremely evil.But the blood lama is a rare gem, which can exorcise evil spirits and protect the body.
Tu Yong saw the origin of this thing at a glance, but he accepted it disrespectfully, and immediately hung it around his daughter's neck.
"Rongrong, what should I say?"
"Thank you uncle..."
Sitting on the chair, Tu Yong saw that Qin Kun's small shop had changed a little bit, and said, "A person like you won't find me a layman for no serious matter. Tell me, what are you doing?"
"Pull investment."
"Oh." Tu Yong replied indifferently, "A lot of money."
"3000W."
Tu Yong nodded: "Profit."
Qin Kun looked at director Zhang Ping, director Zhang Ping was shocked, who is this guy? 3000W, without blinking your eyes?He was asking about the income, but from his tone, it seemed that he didn't care about the income at all.
Director Zhang Ping swallowed, not knowing what he was talking about, so he said it anyway.
Tu Yong understood: "In other words, the income is not sure?"
Qin Kun said, "Yes."
"I understand. I haven't tried it in filming. I'll pay you back. Sister, brother-in-law, do you want to make a guest appearance?"
Han Yao grinned: "Brother-in-law, I'm one of the leading actors."
Tu Xuanxuan stuck out her tongue: "Brother Qin sent me a message, and he agreed at that time."
Tu Yong took a sip of tea, turned his head and said, "Would you just wait for me to pay for the investment?"
Everyone in the room laughed maliciously, Tu Yong sighed, he is indeed more suitable for the role of being taken advantage of.
The charming wife was angry: "Xuanxuan, how can you help others hide it from your brother?"
Tu Yong narrowed his eyes and scolded: "Did you interrupt? Qin Kun saved your life!"
"I know... I didn't say that Mr. Qin was wrong, I just said that my sister..."
The beautiful wife was very wronged, Tu Yong interrupted with a cold snort: "This director, you just said that you mainly focus on overseas, do you have any publicity channels?"
Zhang Ping is embarrassed, yes, but it was the way that the investor found out last time. Now that the three actors have been pushed, how can he help himself.
"Currently... there may not be..."
Zhang Ping explained, and Tu Yong said: "Leave the matter to me. The promotion fee will also be deducted from the box office proceeds. Are there any questions?"
Zhang Ping was dumbfounded: "It's gone."
"Well, just cooperate with Qin Kun well. What you want is the reputation in the film industry, and what they want is the reputation in other circles. You don't conflict."
0944 - High Quality Crew
With money, there are people.
Director Zhang Ping was even more distressed. Last time, the investor only brought in three people. This time, Qin Kun had all the power to let him in. As a result, Qin Kun packed in no less than 20 people.
Zhang Ping collapsed to the extreme. Although Qin Kun said that this group of people is very important, he can't do it like this!
Chu Qianxun was in charge of managing the accounts, and every time she heard her say, "Is the price disclosed to Master Ge too low?", Zhang Ping's heart would bleed.An old man who suffered a stroke, the salary is only 100W, he felt that the crew would end sooner or later.
Moreover, such an old man, there are three more.
Painted skin fairy, holy monk, fish and dragon Tai Sui have all come.
Zhang Ping was dizzy, and when the greasy monk volunteered to be the cook of the crew, Zhang Ping almost cried.
Because Chu Qianxun gave him an extra 50W, just for cooking...
In front of Chao Zhen, the Painted Skin Immortal, was an old couple. Qin Kun knew them. They were an old tailor and a tailor's wife in Linjiang City. His magic weapon, the Liuyun shirt, was made by the old tailor.
I just found out today that the tailor woman is actually Huapixian's daughter!
"Yue Zhang, the clothes you want..." The old tailor is as old as Chu Laoxian, and the hundred-year-old Huapixian is trembling. The relationship between husband and wife is very delicate. Huapixian touched the material and said angrily: " It’s not enough to embarrass me! Look at me, the old bald donkey, the old man, and the stroke dragon king, who can wear such fancy clothes!"
Standing by the side, Zhang Ping touched the material of the clothes, his heart trembling.
This dress is even better than the ones specially ordered by someone I saw abroad. When I put it on, it looks like a fairy-like person. This old man is actually dissatisfied?
The old tailor said aggrievedly: "Yue Zhang... this is for the juniors. You guys are over there..."
"Daddy, can you say a few words less?"
The tailor woman glared at Chao Zhen.
Chao Zhen blinked his eyes, and said with a guilty conscience, "Oh, I just said why is it so strange. Well, the son-in-law is not bad."
When the clothes were ready, Zhang Ping saw that several million had disappeared from Chu Qianxun's account, and said in astonishment, "Mr. Qin...you are all pocketed?"
Qin Kun said contemptuously: "The old tailor costs 18 gold ingots for a piece of clothing, which is more than 100 W. Our crew has so many pieces of clothing, and each piece is only 10 W. You can be content..."
Zhang Ping tilted his body and sat down on the ground.
A piece of clothing... 10W?Are you crazy or the world is crazy! ! !
Qin Kun felt relieved when he saw the construction of the barren village. The Seven Star Real Estate of the young lady's family also contributed a lot.
In the past few days, Gao Ying and Sister Gu, who were watching the store, came here in turn to help with the coolies. The daily salary of 1000 was paid by Chu Qianxun from the account of Seven Star Real Estate. The two also worked very hard.
After Zhang Pinghuan came over, he followed Qin Kun to inspect the shooting base, and found two women who were moving bricks and wood, just like machines. Not to mention the huge strength, there was still room left. If it wasn't for the image, they might have moved more.
"Isn't this the front desk and cleaning in Mr.'s shop... Strange people! Mr. Qin, I want to recruit them both!"
Zhang Ping was delighted to see Lie Xin.
Qin Kun chuckled: "I recruited, and they also agreed."
Zhang Ping was taken aback, well, as a director, I really don't have any rights...
The progress of the project is very fast. On the day Zhang Ping and Qin Kun finalized the project, the project started. The Qixing Palace is the most compelling. It is indeed contemplative.
"Qin Heigou, Bafang Yulou has sent you the information you want!"
A donkey's face appeared, and Zhao Feng ran over sweating profusely, and handed Qin Kun a thick stack of documents.
Qin Kun beckoned to the group of screenwriters behind Zhang Ping: "Revise the script, and screen the stories according to the movie roles I arranged, and the dialogue must be refined."
The small screenwriters didn't dare to take a breath, but they scoffed. The four of them wrote the script for 3 months before finishing it, and they actually asked to change it?
"Oh I see."
They left with the materials, and Zhang Ping smiled and said, "They have talent, but they are too arrogant. Mr. Qin, don't worry..."
Qin Kun smiled, that would not be the case.
The imagination in the script is good, but it is not grounded. The plot of the Huaxia Ghostbuster holding a bow and arrow to kill evil spirits is good, but there can't be any "three cleansing guns". Buddha, you bragging too much...
At meal time, Zhang Ping ate for the first time in the crew.
As soon as the food was eaten, I was suddenly refreshed. The delicious rice grains seemed to be arranged in a circle of light and turned in my mind. I took another bite of the food, the crisp chewing sound, the salty and smooth taste, hit the taste buds directly, why...why is there such a delicious food in the world? green vegetables? !
The holy monk was shaking the spoon and the open-air cauldron, making him sweat profusely, not only the crew, but even the construction personnel of Seven Star Real Estate.
A few old men were talking and laughing happily, and the younger generation was full of enthusiasm, Zhang Ping was also slightly stunned.
Seeing the greasy monk's fancy way of cooking, his eyes lit up, as if he was moved by a kind of simplicity.
"What are you doing?" Qin Kun looked at Zhang Ping who got up and asked.
"Let them turn it on, this picture, when it is a documentary about life, it is also a good film!"
"Eat with peace of mind, I ordered it on the first day."
Zhang Ping was taken aback.
Qin Kun said with a smile: "At first, I planned to leave a souvenir for everyone. If you want, I will give you a copy."
Zhang Ping nodded hurriedly.
In addition to the sound engineer, cameraman, lighting engineer, and props engineer, there is also an outsider among the insiders and outsiders of the crew.
One of the three actors that investors wanted to support at the beginning was a young boy named Qiu Ming, whom Qin Kun had met before.
The last time I went to London to do a mission, I met him when I was exchanging foreign exchange. Because I gave Qin Kun money, Zhang Ping happened to be chosen as the male second. Qiu Ming was very grateful to Qin Kun.This is an inspirational rich second generation. The original investor was his uncle. Because of his good relationship with Zhang Ping, he found his uncle as an investor for Zhang Ping. In his opinion, the reason why the movie failed last time was because The lead actor is too ineffective.
Unexpectedly, the matter was almost finished, Zhang Ping looked for another funder, Qiu Ming was a little disappointed, but his manager suggested that he come over with Zhang Ping.
The agent did not say anything extra, and showed Qiu Ming a movie called "Dragon and Tiger Celestial Master Fighting Zombies". Mr. Qin met in London!
Moreover, the agent said that the big villain in it, "Hundred Miles Walking Zombie", Gu Feipao, is Mr. Qin's friend, and they all heard about it from Zhang Ping.
The second half is extremely exciting, it can be described as dazzled, Qiu Ming is a little emotional, Qiu Ming wants to be handsome, but he wants to join a high-quality crew, even if he shows his face, it is better than being a male supporting role in a bad movie that has been criticized .So here he is.
When the filming base was not finished, the agent asked him to come over and mingle with everyone. Qiu Ming did as he did. In the past few days, he met many new friends and gradually felt the magic of the crew.
"Master Jingyan, the rice you cook is really delicious..." Qiu Ming held the bowl politely, half of the white rice was left at the bottom of the bowl, and the food on it was finished.
The holy monk laughed: "Little benefactor, eat more."
