Chapter 1213 Cruel?
Series?
ten years?
Wang Jing swallowed, and then smiled bitterly, "Master Jun, please stop teasing me. I really want to make a series like this, but I'm really afraid that I won't be able to survive! Do you think everyone is like you? No matter how many grape trellises there are, they won’t fall down?”
Of course he knew how good the bait thrown by Yin Jun was.
Although the "Police Academy" series is very good, it cannot do without Wang Jing.
Because Gan Guoliang also came from Wireless, he has a good relationship with Gan Guoliang.
According to Gan Guoliang, at most after "Police Academy 3", the "Police Academy" series will go to Japan, Europe and the United States for filming. After all, six or seven episodes will be enough. A happy ending.
The previous Qilin Film Company was fine. Wang Jing could boast that in the whole of Xiangjiang, except for Yin Jun, there was no other person who could play this movie better than himself.
But it's different in Europe and the United States.
Because Kirin Group has acquired Disney and United Artists Film Company.
Not to mention others, the producer Bruckheimer, who was promoted by Yin Jun himself, is said to be listed as a producer in the United States and is in charge of the film.
In Xiangjiang, Wang Jing is still a role in Asia, but in Europe and the United States, he is really nothing.
Just talk about a cultural background and degree of identity, and he doesn't believe it.
Yin Jun is different. He is a genius and can completely ignore these problems.
Under this circumstance, Wang Jing can make one or two more films of "Police School" at most, and the rest has nothing to do with him.
If he can hold "The King of Flowers" in his hands, with the configuration of "The King of Flowers", it will definitely be aimed at movie-watching groups across Asia, and then he will lead the three, five, six or seven movies. ah.
Think about it, Yin Jun is talking about ten years!
How many decades can a director last?
Wang Jingman made full calculations and felt that after thirty years of work, it was almost time to retire.
He doesn't want to be as tired as his father and retire after making enough money.
If you can achieve such great achievements in the first ten years and have such a blockbuster series to protect you, then your development will get better and better in the future.
Now, the only problem Yin Jun poses is how to deal with these women.
Wang Jing does not hate women, he likes beautiful women very much.
But these six aunts in "Overlord Flower" are totally beyond his reach!
The bigger problem is definitely not just these.
According to Yin Jun's temper, Wang Jing is sure that a lot of new blood will be added to "Overlord Flower" in the future.
For example, the little princess Wen Bixia, Zhou Haimei, Zeng Huaqian... Once these little aunts join the crew of the series of movies, it will be even more fun.
Isn't it like that in the legend? Wen Bixia and Guan Zhilin, as Yin Jun's closest people, a sister and a girlfriend, will never pee in the same pot.
Not many people may believe that Zhao Yazhi and Guan Zhilin are in love. It would be unjust to say that Wen Bixia and Guan Zhilin are not torn apart when they are filming together!
Wang Jing could even imagine how miserable he would be if such a day came.
The trembling, angry little wife is talking about myself.
"Brother Jing, you want to become an international director. This difficulty stumps you. How can you do it?" Seeing Wang Jing's face turning green and red, Yin Jun smiled and said, "You Let’s shoot the first one first! We’ll talk about it after we shoot the first one. If it really doesn’t work, you won’t have to make it difficult in the future, okay?”
"OK!"
Yin Jun has talked about this, what else can Wang Jing say?
If he doesn't agree again, he will completely say goodbye to this director position.
What Yin Jun said is not bad. Do this first part by yourself first. If the benefits are too great and the danger is too great, then you can still consider it. At worst, I risk my life and call people sister when I see them. I, Fatty Wang, can also do things in a small way!
"Sister Qingxia will come back from the United States in August at the most. By then, the schedules of the few here will be almost free." After Wang Jing agreed, Yin Juncai said: "There are some things I didn't write in the script. But it must be done. For example, their kung fu training, especially the training of fighting skills, is indispensable. I don’t want the audience to watch them fight as if they are watching a joke.”
Wang Jing couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, "Young Master Jun, you are so willing! Do you want such a group of delicate girls to receive professional training?"
"Absolutely." Yin Jun said, "Of course it won't be too harsh. Just compare it to Hui Yinghong's standards. During the training, there are martial arts masters and female instructors from the Flying Tigers. They will discuss it. Yours The task is to ensure that what they learn can be used during the shooting process, and they cannot learn it half-heartedly and then shoot half-heartedly. Otherwise, the person I want to be responsible for is you!"
"clear!"
Wang Jing gritted his teeth.
Since they were all on the pirate ship, he didn't care about anything else.
Although learning kung fu and fighting skills is difficult, it is not without workarounds. He knows this much better than Yin Jun.
But he really admired Yin Jun and was willing to send girlfriends like Zhao Yazhi, Zhong Chuhong, and Guan Zhilin to film martial arts scenes.
Wang Jing, who grew up on the set of Shaw Brothers, has seen many female martial arts stars from Shaw Brothers look miserable when injured. If they are not careful, they will leave scars for life.
Although the conditions are better now and there are more various wires and protective measures, the risk is still very high after all.
For example, female boxing stars such as Hui Yinghong and Yang Xiaoxiao also suffered a lot of injuries at a young age, and they suffered constant minor injuries.
If we look at the average number of these female stars filming three films, they have suffered equally a lot.
Perhaps this is because Yin Jun particularly likes movies.
When making a movie, you only consider the movie itself, not your personal feelings.
You can't say that Fatty Wang's thoughts are completely wrong, but they do make some sense.
But Yin Jun was not as extreme as he thought.
The reason why Yin Jun asked Sister Zhao and the others to train specifically was because he couldn't stand the series of gags in the training scenes in "The King of Flowers" in his previous life.
Although it is funny, and the supporting male characters such as Feng Qianfan and Lou Nanguang are also quite interesting, in terms of real fighting, they appear to be very weak.
If it weren't for Hu Huizhong, Hui Yinghong and Li Saifeng to support the scene, relying on beauties like Ye Zhimei who have no appearance to fight, it would make people want to cover their eyes.
This is also a very unprofessional aspect of Hong Kong movies.
Look at other people's "Charlie's Angels". Although they also use three pretty girls, their moves are all similar. Drew, a chubby girl, has also undergone special training. Only these fights can impress the audience. They are satisfied, thereby achieving better box office and word-of-mouth results.
Yin Jun is planning to turn "Overlord Flower" into a series and a big IP, so it is necessary to be strict from the beginning.
Only if the rules are established up front, the celebrities who join later will obey the rules, otherwise it will be trouble no matter what.
When it comes to training specifically, Yin Jun definitely does not require them to be the same as Hui Yinghong, but female stars who act generally have a foundation in dance, so the flexible fighting style of opera is the main one, supplemented by the fierce fighting style. That's it.
According to Yin Jun's idea, and after consulting professionals from opera and the Flying Tigers, he learned that one month should be spent on professional training, coupled with constant adjustments and continuous training during the filming, he would be able to handle "Overlord" Flower" requires the intensity.
Of course, some dangerous actions and scenes that require the use of a substitute must also be used.
After all, this is just filming, not the real Bawanghua chasing the prisoners, and Yin Jun is reluctant to let them get hurt.
Wang Jing just observed a moment of silence for these beauties and then put these problems behind him.
He is more concerned about his treatment and the scale of the shooting, "Master Jun, we have gathered so many stars in "The King of Flowers", all of which are top female stars in Asia. The scale of this production will not be too small, right?"
"The estimated production cost is HK$20 million." Yin Jun responded with a smile.
"20 million!? Really?"
Wang Jing was stunned.
In the history of Hong Kong movies, how can a movie without special effects achieve 10 million?
The production cost of Cheng Long's "Police Story" was 30 million. That was because there were many explosions and destruction scenes, so the cost exceeded the budget.
Even "Mr. Zombie 2", which broke the box office record of "Police Story", had a production cost of just over 4 million. Of course, the salary of Uncle Ying's director and starring actors is not included in it, which requires direct participation in dividends. .
Now Yin Jun is telling Wang Jing, you will give me a production cost of 20 million for a movie about a group of girls playing around?
This...this happiness comes too suddenly! !
Wang Jing is a good director and a director that investors like very much.
Because he always makes money.
No matter how much production fee you pay, he can always successfully complete the filming and then release it to make money.
Such a person is the opposite extreme from the King of Sunglasses.
It is also for this reason that Wang Jing has been able to enjoy his career in 2020 and has successfully opened up in the mainland. He is definitely a first-line commercial director.
But this does not mean that Wang Jing wants to live a hard life.
Who wouldn't like having more funds and being able to shoot more accurately?
Especially when Fatty Wang was thinking about it, it was when he wanted to achieve results. Of course, the word "excellence" was still engraved in his mind.
Only after he becomes successful will he start his money-making journey.
"Twenty million is not a lot, after all, it also includes their salary." Yin Jun smiled, "As for yours... this time we will share the profit! Director Wang, I hope you will become the second one to win at the box office. Share it with more than 10 million people!”
The first person whose box office share exceeded 10 million was Lin Zhengying.
"Mr. Zombie 2" has exploded at the box office across Asia. As director, protagonist and action designer, Lin Zhengying is worthy of being the soul of "Mr. Zombie 2". Even Sam Hung had to reduce his share and give more to him - fact On the Internet, Lin Zhengying earned more than Hong Jinbao, who invested fully.
But you can't say that Kam-po Hung is at a loss. He holds the production copyright of "Mr. Zombie". If Lin Zhengying wants to continue making this series, he must cooperate with him. In this way, Kam-po Hung can continue to make money!
Wang Jing laughed from ear to ear after hearing what Yin Jun said.
His previous dividend from "Police Academy 2" almost reached 10 million, but he did not regret that he did not become the first person to break 10 million.
For him, as long as he can make money, it doesn't matter whether he is first or second.
It’s the most economical way to make more money!
If "The King of Flowers" really meets expectations, then two consecutive movies can earn almost 10 million in dividends, then he will be the number one commercial director in Hong Kong!
Well, Yin Jun's "Speed" is still the highest-grossing film in the world, but of course he can't be regarded as a director alone, so Fatty Wang shamelessly booked the first place, and there seems to be nothing wrong with it.
