I'm almost a Muggle

"Let's do this." In order to persuade Fumikoha to accept his invitation, Lin Dong threw out a big olive branch: "You help me finish filming this movie, and I will convince our company to invest in your first theatrical feature film.

How about it?"

Fumikoha has only made some short films.

Then not long ago, I participated in a new director support program and co-produced a romance film with several other new directors.

There is just no romance and no action.

Fumikoha was excited instantly.

Lower your head and pay tribute to the capital boss.

It's not that he is too immoral, but that no one can resist such temptation.

Of course he also wants to make his own big movie for theaters, and he wants to hit the box office and reach the top of his life. Only by making a big hit movie can he have his own status, his own right to speak, and his own luxurious life.

A gentleman loves money, so he must get it in a wise way.

He already has a vague idea and has talked with Director Ning Hai, who is very good in the industry. He is still in the script creation stage.

If someone could invest in him, he wouldn't have to run around looking for money.

People will always be slowly tamed by reality.

Although he didn't do well in the exam, Fumikoha does have a knack for making movies. The short films he made during his early student days already revealed realism and humanistic care. That kind of reality that comes from life will cheer up your soul.

However, lack of money always bothered him.

The first short film was shot with one semester's living expenses. During that semester, he could only eat instant noodles.

The second short film finally attracted investment, and someone invested 1,000 yuan in him.

You read that right, not ten million, not one million, not even ten thousand, just one thousand yuan. He invited two old ladies to act, and it was about two old ladies going to pay the TV bill together.

story.

It doesn't matter what he wants, he can only work hard on the story and technique.

The new movie he is planning is his fifth work, and it is an ambitious work that he himself finds difficult to complete.

Because the production alone may require at least 50 million.

It's not five thousand yuan, it's fifty million.

In addition to other things, there is also the increasingly important publicity and distribution in the film and television industry...

He usually forces himself not to think about it.

Now, an opportunity was placed in front of him. Although he didn't know how much money this company could offer, since Lin Dong could let this company invest in making movies, it meant that he still had face in this company.

A little is a given, and a little is not a problem.

"My more than one hundred kilograms will be handed over to Teacher Lin." Wen Muye officially announced that he bowed to the capital boss.

"Haha, believe me, you won't regret it." Lin Dong felt that his life was beginning to be full of hope again. If it's just two billion, I will burn you all down sooner or later.

"I have no regrets about getting to know Teacher Lin Dong." What a refreshing person.

"Hey, these are minor. Let's talk about your remuneration."

Lin Dong pulled Wen Muye to sit down and poured him a cup of tea with his own hands.

"I just need food and accommodation. The main thing is to learn more from Teacher Lin Dong."

Fumikoha's posture was very low.

This is not a cliche. If Lin Dong can help him get investment for his new film, the remuneration really doesn't matter.

He doesn't mind if I don't give you a dime.

In fact, even if food and accommodation are not included, he can still bring his own instant noodles.

"That's right, we are not like that. You are the first assistant director. I will sign you for one year and give you 1.2 million." Lin Dong gave the maximum value after consulting the director's opinion.

Domestic film and television production does not have very clear rules, and the division of responsibilities of assistant directors is very confusing.

Some assistant directors actually work as assistant directors.

However, some assistant directors are the actual creators of the entire show - the real director may never appear on the set from beginning to end.

This has also resulted in polarization in the compensation of assistant directors.

Some assistant directors who participate in a play from beginning to end may earn only 30,000 to 50,000 yuan, which is worse than a side job.

But some can get one to two million, or even more.

Wen Muye was shocked.

Don't blame him for being hopeless.

He has been in the entertainment industry for five or six years, but he has never made more than a million dollars.

I never thought that if I participated in a movie as an assistant director, I would be paid millions.

This is pie in the sky.

It's impossible to shirk, and you can't shirk money no matter what you push.

I can only go to pieces and swear to death to help Director Lin with this drama so that he can make a lot of money, otherwise I won't be able to afford the 1.2 million.

"Do you have any suggestions on the script? Can you write a script? Why don't you write it?" Lin Dong was completely shameless in order to make this movie lose money.

He even thought about writing it himself.

It's a pity that he really doesn't know how.

I was full of energy and ready to start writing, but as I stepped in front of the computer, my eyelids couldn't help but start fighting.

I wrote and wrote for several days, and ended up writing more than a thousand words.

I really can't afford to eat this bowl of rice.

"I can't, I can't write this." In fact, Fumikoha can write scripts, and he plans to write his own new play with his classmates.

But he's really not good at it, and he's afraid that he won't be able to write well and delay the show.

As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money and gets it in the right way.

Even if he is not good at the position of assistant director, he can still do it and will try his best to do his best, so he has no intention of taking the money.

As for the screenwriter, especially the screenwriter of "New Shushan", he can't do it!

"Then do you know the right person?" Lin Dong asked.

It is said that the entertainment industry is all about connections. Lin Dong has been in the entertainment industry for several years, but suddenly he found that he didn't even have anyone to write a script for him.

Not nothing.

It just doesn't meet the requirements of being able to help him lose money.

After all, the screenwriters he has come into contact with are quite powerful.

"A lot of films like this can actually be written, but I think when it comes to Rapeseed Flowers, I still admire Jiang Xiaojun." The one Wen Muye admires the most is Jiang Xiaojun.

The director, screenwriter, and actors have all done their best.

"Jiang Xiaojun, haha, I have his WeChat ID. Isn't it a bit cruel to ask him to be a screenwriter?" Lin Dong suddenly laughed.

Wen Muye reacted immediately.

He wanted to slap himself. What kind of suggestion was this?

Lin Dong said before that "New Shushan" was produced by Xu Guai, but he was so stupid that he even suggested Jiang Xiaojun.

There is no serious conflict between these two people.

But it’s quite awkward to meet each other, isn’t it?

At the end of last year, "Smart Marry the Eagle" versus "One Step Away" was an extremely fierce battle. Everyone saw the result. Jiang Xiaojun's movie had a box office of more than 500 million, which was defeated by Xu Guai's more than 800 million.

What makes Jiang Xiaojun even more sad is that his "One Step Distance" cost more than 300 million.

The cost was more than 300 million, and that was an investment that required a box office of 900 million to break even. He only had 500 million, and the studio's share of the box office was only 194 million, with a loss of more than 100 million. This time he failed, and it was his worst loss in recent years.
