Chapter 193 Crazy Racing
Which movie was the first hit during the Spring Festival in 2005, no one has to think about it, that is "Crazy Stone". "Crazy Stone" swept away 805 million at the box office during the Spring Festival in 2005, becoming the highest box office at that time. Even the box office of the film in 2005 was not It is often competitive.
And director Ning Hao himself became the second domestic front-line charismatic director of Star Entertainment after Wang Zhengfei with the box office of 85,000 million, and became the current popular director.
You should know that in China now, there are only Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang and Chen Kaige, the three director members of the 100 million yuan club. They are undoubtedly the top director in the mainland, Er Ning Hao. Although there are only 60 million box office in the mainland, it is enough for him to rank among the first-line directors in China.
Star Entertainment, which has two domestic front-line appeal directors, has finally begun to be valued by the bigwigs in the circle. Generally speaking, it is already a medium-sized film and television company that can have a front-line director.
And with more than two directors with big-selling films, only those big companies have the privilege. In China, there are a large number of domestic front-line actors, but there are only a few top directors, and all of them are the treasures of major companies, and they refuse to take them out when they are idle.
Not to mention the three top directors of Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige and Feng Xiaogang, even the second front-line directors are pitiful. Basically, the whole of China is just less than double ten. With just a dozen people, Xingchen Entertainment has two, and those bigwigs can't be left to look sideways.
In addition to box office dividends, Star Entertainment also has dividends including impression products and peripheral products, which add up to more than 60 million. Of these money, 10 million are directly transferred to Wang Zhengfei's account, that is to say, Wang Zhengfei can use more than 80 million working capital, and Star Entertainment In order to shoot "Qin Shi Ming Yue" with more than 50 million yuan, I was afraid of a slight shortage, but it seems that it is not a deficiency, but quite enough. It is enough to start shooting another movie while shooting "Qin Shi Mingyue".
Of course, the other film can only be a small-made movie, otherwise the funds will still be unswerable!
The weather at the end of February has gradually become warmer, especially in the south, and I can no longer feel the coldness in the north.
The sun shines on the body and looks warm.
Wang Zhengfei dressed up a little and went out of the door. Now he has just experienced a fight. His image has suddenly been promoted from a villain to a decent. This rapid change has made him more people's love. Among them, the most representative is that the number of fans on Wang Zhengfei's official website is from 50. Ten thousand has surged to more than one million.
Originally, he needed to go out and dress up, but now he has to dress up. As the weather is getting warmer, Wang Zhengfei is not as thick as he wears, and he goes out in white sportswear.
He went to a celebration banquet of "Crazy Stone" in the interior of Star Entertainment. Although the celebration banquet of Crazy Stone had been held once when the box office exceeded 50 million before, it was for the media. All the members of the crew participated. Now it is a small banquet, only for Some important members inside, some insignificant characters will not appear, mainly several leading actors and several main creators, as well as Gao Yan, the boss, and Wang Zhengfei, the screenwriter.
A small celebration banquet was placed in a high-end restaurant in Fuzhou, and I opened several rooms by myself.
When Wang Zhengfei arrived, everyone had already arrived and seemed to be waiting for him alone. Wang Zhengfei said with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I'm late!"
"You didn't come late. We came early!" Huang Bo immediately said next to him.
Although Huang Bo is only a small supporting role in Crazy Stone, his superb acting skills quickly became popular with Crazy Stone, and the scripts of various endorsement dramas were sent to the door. Although these leading actors have risen to varying degrees after the popularity of Crazy Stone, Guo Tao has a certain The basis of popularity and fame is also closer after the end of the play, but in comparison, Huang Bo has benefited the most. His play path is much narrower than that of other people, unlike them, which have no problem with positive, reverse, comedy or serious films. Although Huang Bo's acting skills are superb, his face is also It is his appearance that he can only take the line of a comedian, otherwise, like Feng Xiaogang and Guo Degang, he will obviously act in a comedy, but in order to break through the way of the play, he will play a decent role. As a result, the plot, which should have been very touching, became first-class and hilarious under the interpretation of these two.
Because of this, Huang Bo, who is only suitable for comedy, has more easily won the recognition of the audience, and also won the favor of many directors who had rejected him, and quickly became a front-line funny star in China. In this regard, although he was under Ning Hao's hands, it can be said that Ning Hao guided him to shoot, the person he was most grateful for was not Ning Hao, but Wang Zhengfei, not only because the play that made him popular was written by Wang Zhengfei, but more importantly, he heard that he was specially found by Wang Zhengfei. If there was no Wang Zhengfei. With the order of flying, he may not have a chance to play at all.
In fact, it's not just Huang Bo. Others are also very grateful to Wang Zhengfei, including Ning Hao. They were basically not famous in the entertainment industry before. Even Guo Tao was just a little famous. If Wang Zhengfei hadn't appointed them to play the role this time, they wouldn't have had nothing at all. I don't have a chance to star in this popular movie.
During the dinner, there was Gao Yan, a master of adjusting the atmosphere, and everyone was also very happy, so the atmosphere soon became hot.
Ning Hao was a little drunk. He came to Wang Zhengfei and picked up the glass and said, "Zhengfei, I'll toast you with this glass of wine!"
"Good!" Wang Zhengfei drank this glass of wine and his face turned a little red.
"This time, Ning Hao, can achieve such an achievement, it's all up to you, Zhengfei!" Ning Hao said.
"That's also everyone's efforts to make the movie Crazy Stone loved by so many people!" Wang Zhengfei said modestly.
"No, I know, the quality of a movie depends on the quality of a script. If it weren't for your script this time, we wouldn't have achieved that kind of result!" Ning Hao said.
"Exaggerate, exaggerate!" Wang Zhengfei said.
"Next, I know you're going to Taiwan for filming. I don't know if you have a new script for me to shoot!" Ning Hao asked that this problem had been entangled for a long time. Although "Crazy Stone" had achieved great success, he absolutely did not want to be silent. On the contrary, he had to constantly surpass himself. Although he is now the director of Star Entertainment, Gao Yan did not restrict him from going to other places to take the play. After all, Xingchen Entertainment is not large-scale now. Generally speaking, even if there are one or two film and television dramas a year, Wang Zhengfei is first considered. After all, compared with Ning Hao, Wang Zhengfei is more reliable and famous, so naturally he doesn't mind him picking up other people's plays. Besides, the company can still have a share, but Gao Yan will check it. I will find Ning Hao for any play.
However, although many scripts have been handed over, Ning Hao still has a special preference for Wang Zhengfei's works, especially when shooting Crazy Stone. He feels that Wang Zhengfei has completely written the kind of story he wants to shoot, although there are still There are many differences from what he imagined, but it can definitely be described by the word "smooth". It's simply that Wang Zhengfei is a roundworm in his stomach who generally knows him and understands him.
This made him admire Wang Zhengfei. He felt that he had a confidant. The so-called life is rare to have a confidant, so he prefers to ask Wang Zhengfei that there is no script suitable for him to shoot. If there is, even if he has less money, he is willing to do it. Life is often in the world. Fight for fame and fortune, but more often, you don't have to value this.
"Script, think about it!" Wang Zhengfei thought for a time that in addition to Crazy Stone, Ning Hao's work is also very famous.
"Crazy Racing" is about the bicycle rider Geng Hao, who became a silver medal driver because he was defeated in 0.01 seconds. This is a line; the second line is the two thieves. They became thieves by mistake and finally kidnapped tickets and hurt people. The third line is the gangsters from Taiwan, who intend to make a big deal in the mainland; The fourth line is the two policemen, who are eager to make contributions, but they are determined that the silver driver is a thief.
tells five stories related to the protagonist in the same time and space, involving six groups of characters. This is an absurd story intertwined by four lines.
The story is very wonderful. It still continues Ning Hao's set of stories. The set of narrative mode is no less than "Crazy Stone", and even much stronger than "Crazy Stone". After all, "Crazy Stone" is only Ning Hao's first show of his skills in this regard. Naturally, it is not as proficient as a few years later. Moreover, the idea of "Crazy Racing" took much longer than "Crazy Stone".
"I have a creative idea, but I don't have a script in my hand. I've been busy recently and may not be able to write it, but I remember that you can also do the work of a screenwriter. If you can shoot this story creatively, then this story belongs to you!" Wang Zhengfei said that the point is that he doesn't have a script at all now. Recently, he has been busy writing Snow Leopard and reading some materials about Prank Kiss.
"What's your idea?" Ning Hao is interested.
"Its name is Crazy Racing!" Wang Zhengfei said.
