Chapter 79: the 3rd time


Chapter 79 The Third Time
The streets outside "Zhu Tai Day Care" in Chinatown are full of passers-by, and there is an old man with white hair sitting on the stool outside the shop and pulling the erhu. They are all actors who are invited back from the crew; the crew are all in the nursery window On the opposite side, Vale-Fister carried the camera and pointed at the left side of the street. The lighting engineer and sound engineer were also waiting. Wang Yang looked at the street and shouted to the white speaker in his hand: "n"
With his order, all the passers-by walked around, and a man ran out of the corner of the street and ran quickly. It was Will Smith in a suit, who ran past Wang Yang and others , With a bang, opened the nursery door: "Christopher, come here" The camera's lens shot through the window and filmed the scene inside. Will Smith hugged Terry tightly, closed his eyes, and looked excited with a hard face With satisfaction, tears flow silently.
Now without using music to drive emotions, Will Smith performed a very good effect. He has successfully entered the heart of the character "Chris Gardner" and resonated with the world in the script, so the better the performance In the final stage of shooting, he rarely had NG.
"CUT" Wang Yang shouted excitedly. When the last shot was completed, he couldn't help but grinned his mouth, waved his fist, and smiled brightly: "The perfect shot is over, the shooting is over."
Suddenly, everyone in the crew cheered happily. Vary Fister turned off the camera, put it off his shoulder with a smile, and handed it to Harry George next to him, followed by applause; Will Smith He Terry also came out of the nursery, Will kept applauding, and Terry looked at the lively and joyous crowd, and was inexplicably very happy in his heart, murmured: "It's great to make a movie is fun ... "
For the third time, this was the third time the killing king Yang closed his eyes vigorously. In Ghost Records, it was a very simple excitement. He hugged Zachary and Rachel, He actually made a film and became a director. Although it was only a week, it was so crazy and unbelievable; when it came to "High School Musical", the first film film, he was more excited about his responsibility. Because he has a company behind him and Jessica they trust him ... Now, that responsibility is continuing, but he believes everything will be fine.
"It's hard work, it's a pleasure to work with you." Putting down the horn, Wang Yang spread his hands and hugged Vale-Fister. Vale patted his shoulder and smiled: "The second pleasant cooperation." Wang Yang laughed. : "There will be a third time, Valais, I'm booking your next summer vacation." After all, he let go of Valais and went to hug George George, Gordon Sim ...
"Will" Wang Yang looked at Will Smith, his bloodshot eyes, and smiled: "Your interpretation is really great." Will Smith hugged him shoulder to shoulder, He smiled briskly: "Hey, man, I feel good too" Wang Yang patted his back and smiled: "Will, I think you can take Oscar's best actor" Will Haha said, Road: "I only dare to think about it now, don't get the golden plum next year." Wang Yang loosened him and slapped him on the shoulder again, laughing: "That's nothing, Will, you will appear in the snow. Lan Theater, you will. "He said, he looked at Terry next to him and hugged the little guy and smiled:" Little handsome boy, you will too "
After a while of laughter and laughter, the crew of the crew began to pack up the photographic equipment, the finances started to settle the wages with the mass actors, and the streets were closed. Looking at the crew in an orderly manner, Wang Yang stood on the side with a smile on his face. This time the shooting process was very smooth. Except for the performance problems, it took two and a half months. The crew did not have any trouble, and it is now over. He couldn't help exhaling.
"Yang Tsai, the filming is over? When will it be seen?" The uncle boss of the shop on the street didn't know when he came over. He carried his hands on his back and looked at the busy crew with curiosity. Wang Yang glanced at him and replied in Chinese: "Soon I think you will be able to see it in the cinema around June next year." Uncle asked casually again: "Which drama talks about Karma?" Wang Yang He answered seriously: "This is an inspirational biographical film, probably about Chris Gardner ..."
After listening to a few words, the uncle was impatient and waved his hand: "Oh, I ’ll wait in the movie theater to watch it." He also said seriously: "Yangzai, keep fighting, my Chinatown depends on you" Wang Yang Nodded heavily and smiled: "Uncle, I will"
With the end of the shooting phase, the team "When Happiness Comes to Knock" also announced its dissolution, but Wang Yang has already agreed with many people in advance, including Vale-Pfister, Gordon-Sin and others. Juno can work with them again. After returning home to eat a farewell meal with his parents, Wang Yang left the familiar San Francisco and returned to the place where his dream took off, Los Angeles.
In the conference room of Flame Film Company, Wang Yang sat in the chief position and looked at a financial statement on the conference table. It was the cost list of "When Happiness Comes to Knock on the Door." As a film producer, he has always been in the heart There are quite a few, because the actor and the film crew were hired back by his own hands, and he knows how much money he spent; however, in logistics management, he did n’t bother to ask, and the department heads were responsible.
Will Smith pays 15 million, Terry Smith 200,000, Jada Smith 1 million ... Wang Yang glanced at the salary of the actors, first the actor's salary, then the salary of the staff such as Vale-Fest Due to the excellent photography and color of "High School Musical", the price of Vale-Fister has risen sharply, as well as the already famous people such as Gordon-Sin joined. Compared with "High School Musical", the salary of the staff is inevitably large Increase in magnitude,
Fortunately, in the three positions of producer, director, and screenwriter, there is only a total of 1 million in expenditure. Although the one million is from the left hand to the right hand, Wang Yang's personal account and company account are different, and the accounts should be clear. He does n’t want to use the company ’s funds easily, but he also needs the cost of living and pays for the salaries of the private life team. However, on the bodyguard, his contract with Ethan Lechter has ended, and he needs to temporarily do so when needed. He hired a bodyguard salary of 10,000 per day for a few days. He could afford it, but it was not necessary.
Film costs, room and board costs, road closure costs ... Wang Yang soon saw the last. After the shooting phase, the total cost was close to 30 million, plus post-editing, recording, soundtracks, etc., is expected to Reached around 32 million.
"OK, no problem." Wang Yang closed the document in his hand and put it aside, smiling happily: "I didn't expect the cost to be lower than the original budget." The initial budget was 40 million, which was acquired with 100 million dollars. After Blue Sky Studio, the company's account has run out of cash, barely enough to cope with the promotional budget of "When Happiness Comes to Knock on the Door" and "High School Musical", it is good news that it can now save 8 million.
Mark Srant over there shrugged, a pen in his hand, and said, "I didn't expect it. Then, my boss, when do you want to be released?" He smiled and said, "What do you want?" It ’s okay at any time. Since we announced the movie plan, we have already been contacted by the cinema company. If you want to release it in a week, you can probably have 3,000 open painting yards.
Everyone in the conference room laughed, Mark. -Slante laughed again: "But I don't recommend it. I have to give us another week to promote it."
Wang Yang rolled his eyes and smiled: "Okay, let's release it in two weeks, just in time for the Christmas season." Everyone laughed for a while, and Wang Yang said seriously: "According to the original plan, the beginning of next summer's season will be released. Right. "
"Then it's hilarious." Mark Srant opened a document, looked at the other company's release plan written in it, and introduced: "May 19th, Broadway's" Dinosaur "will be released, wow , The cost of 127 million, but it is a cartoon, and it is not very conflicting with our market; May 24, Paramount ’s "Mission Impossible 2" is released, oh, 125 million cost, directed by Wu Yusen, Tom Ke Starring Russ; on the 26th, Bowei has another movie "Shanghai Noon", this one has Jackie Chan; on June 2, Fox launched "Undercover Fat Mom", I have seen its stills, it is absolutely vulgar and funny, But there are always a lot of people who like this ... "
Then there are "Speed ​​60 Seconds" starring Nicholas Cage, "One Big Two" starring Kim Kerry, followed by "X-Men" and so on ... There is never a lack of blockbuster in the summer vacation file. There is no shortage of first-line superstars. This schedule is tough, of course, the law of the market is always that good movies stand out, and rotten movies are no longer in disregard, no matter which period is good.
"It is pleasing to me" Mark Srant paused and laughed: "It's a biographical movie, only" Gladiator "on May 5th, but it's time in Rome Kill and kill; look at "Disc 2" and "Noon in Shanghai" ... they are all action movies. So, UU reads www.uukanshu.com and we are the only ones playing the warmth card. "
Wang Yang nodded silently. This is indeed a happy thing. The market has nervous and stimulating demand, and naturally there is also a demand for warmth and emotion. The cake in this area is actually no one to divide; but "When happiness comes to knock on the door" has prestige The Smith family and him, as long as they are properly promoted, will not be afraid of those blockbusters. He looked at Mark and asked, "When do you think it will be released?"
Mark Srant looked at the document and handed it to Wang Yang, saying: "I suggest that it be released on the 20th, avoiding" Dinosaur "in the front and" Disc in the Disc "in the back, we need a quiet time, come Prove the quality of the movie. "
After receiving the document, Wang Yang seriously looked at this detailed market and schedule analysis report. After a long time, he looked up and smiled and said: "OK, then premiere on May 20"
