Huayu became famous overnight

Chapter 85: You are not an uncle in vain
"Uncle Han, I haven't seen you for a long time. You look so handsome."

Xu Ming had a sincere smile on his face and bowed slightly, but it did not seem fawning.

"I get calluses on my ears just from hearing your name."

Han Sanping said casually: "Master Zhang praised you a lot in front of me. You can contact him more when you have time."

Hearing this, Xu Ming was stunned and said, "It's my fault. I didn't contact Director Zhang because I thought he was probably very busy recently."

Imperial Master, how can I deal with this?
Fortunately, I have no bottom line, otherwise my conscience would be hurt.

So, I won’t plagiarize your plays anymore.

Although there is really nothing to copy...

"How is the preparation for your new movie going? I see the online casting is in full swing."

"This provides a new idea for our filmmakers. Is there anything we can help with? For example, with actors or the team." Han Sanping said slowly.

Since he dared to say this, he was not afraid of Xu Ming making any requests.

Unexpectedly, the latter shook his head and said, "I really don't need anything, I just lack investment. You can see when China Film will invest some money. A little is not too little, and a lot is not too much."

Jiang Wen turned his head and looked at him in surprise.

No, nephew, can we still chat like this?
You're just short of stuffing someone's share of the movie into their pocket and trying to force a relationship with them.

"Hahaha, okay, I'll send someone to give you the money later."

"By the way, young filmmakers like you will receive corresponding support funds and subsidies. Remember to fill out the form when the time comes. In addition, banks will provide targeted interest-free loans. You can apply for them if you need them."

Han Sanping has a friendly face. He likes dealing with young people like Xu Ming who know when to advance and when to retreat and know their limits.

The most important thing is that he has talent.

The cost of a campus film like "So Young" is not that high.

But the casting activities before filming raised the heat.

It's hard not to make money from this movie.

The investment shares that Xu Ming voluntarily offered will make China Film's financial statements look better next year, and the treatment received by the latter is also legal and compliant.

Isn’t this the best of both worlds?
The two of them are uncle and nephew, and their relationship becomes closer after a conversation.

After lighting incense and worshipping the gods one by one and unveiling the red cloth, a series of procedures are completed.

Investors such as Han Sanping left one after another.

Xu Mingcai found an opportunity to pull Jiang Wen over and asked, "President Han just mentioned the support funds and subsidies for young filmmakers. How much is it?"

"Adding up all the miscellaneous items, I estimate it's about two million. The key is the interest-free loan, which is a good amount. The pressure on your capital chain is much less."

Jiang Wen sighed, "You deserve to be called uncle, and you have a good mentality. You lie without blinking. Does your movie look like it needs investment?"

"Hey, you don't understand this. The investment I need is not based on money, but on people." Xu Ming said meaningfully.

"I'm your uncle too, how about I invest a little too?" Jiang Wenle said.

"You are different." Xu Ming said.

"Why is it different?"

"Our relationship is not that of uncle and nephew."

"What are you doing?" Jiang Wen raised his eyebrows.

Xu Ming waved his hand, motioning the other person to lean closer to his ear, and said, "At my aunt's."

"You fucking..."

By the time Jiang Wen realized he was being tricked, the other party had already run away happily.

He was so angry that he laughed out loud. The main reason was that this kid was a jerk, but he didn't hate him at all. He even found it interesting.

By the way, Xu Ming called him uncle and got a million-dollar salary.

He called Mr. Han "Uncle" and received the support subsidy and interest-free loan.

Good boy, it’s not in vain that I recognized you as my uncle.

……

The second day of filming.

Xu Ming's original role was cancelled.

It was mainly after the filming started that Jiang Wen remembered to ask him if he could ride a horse. Xu Ming said he could ride any horse except a real horse.

So I gave it to the equestrian coach for intensive training.

At the end of the day, I didn't get familiar with Ma, but I did get familiar with the other actors.

"Brother Jun, your horsemanship is pretty good."

Xu Ming looked at Hu Jun galloping on the grassland and said enviously.

"You can practice your skills if you shoot more costume dramas."

Hu Jun pulled the reins and rode over leisurely. "You are still young, you have plenty of opportunities to learn. When I was your age, I didn't know how to do anything."

"That's what I mean. We have been filming for so many years. If we don't learn some skills, our lives would be in vain. But you are so famous. In the future, there will be martial arts doubles for action scenes and horse doubles for circus scenes. I heard that Hengcheng has literary doubles. The actors only need to be responsible for the scenes where they appear in person." Liao Fan followed.

The more the film and television industry develops, the more confused these predecessors become.

"Haha, this is just the beginning. It won't be surprising if the actors just recite the lines one, two, three, four, and then do the dubbing in the later stage." Xu Ming said.

Oh~
Everyone felt uncomfortable just thinking about that scene.

This is not a question of professional ethics, it's just a shameless act.

By the way, Hu Jun, Liao Fan and Liu Jialing, the three of them starred in "Curiosity Kills the Cat" together two years ago.

There was also a supporting actress named Song Jia in that movie.

The circle is so small.

"Don't mention these dirty things. Let's go. It's time to eat lunch. I heard that Director Feng is coming today, so I'll give you chicken drumsticks in your lunch."

Hu Jun got off the horse, and a group of people headed towards the crew.

When passing by the railway track, I happened to see Jiang Wen, Feng Xiaogang and others gathered together talking loudly.

“The picture of horses pulling the train and steam cooking the hot pot is enough, but before the train arrives, I feel that there is still a lack of a song to create the atmosphere.”

Jiang Wen scratched his head. He always acted on his impulse.

It is common to change a written script on the spot.

If half of the film can be used by the end of the shoot, the investors will be lucky.

"You might as well wait until you finish filming before thinking about this song," Feng Xiaogang advised.

"No, if the song isn't thought out in advance, the picture won't look right." Jiang Wen shook his head.

Seeing this situation, Feng Xiaogang was too lazy to persuade him and let the other party figure it out.

He is a smart man, otherwise he couldn't have made a typical commercial film like If You Are the One. He can't be said to be without ideas, otherwise he couldn't have made 1942.

Also playing with metaphors, his "Youth" made dumplings for the vinegar, while Jiang Wen's "The Sun Also Rises" simply served a bowl of vinegar.

From this point of view, there is a clear difference between the two directing styles.

He called the audience trash, but he was still concerned about what the audience liked.

Jiang Wen simply didn't pay any attention to the audience.

Just eat whatever I cook. The ingredients are good. It’s your problem if you can’t get used to it.

A group of people stood beside the railway track with Jiang Wen and pondered over this trivial matter for half an hour.

Until Hu Jun and others passed by.

When Jiang Wen saw Xu Ming, he subconsciously teased him, "Nephew, what song do you think would be interesting to play before this train arrives?"

“It’s Farewell.”

Xu Ming didn't even raise his eyelids, thinking about the chicken leg in the lunch box.

Recently he has been asked to strictly control his weight and eat only a limited amount of meat.

As for Jiang Wenti's question, he didn't have to think about it at all, because this song started the movie, and as a veteran Bullet fan, it was engraved in his DNA.

"How does the song go?"

Hu Jun and others also didn't take it seriously and just thought Xu Ming was talking nonsense.

"Outside the long pavilion, beside the ancient road~"

"The grass is green and the sky is blue~"
