Chapter 26 I won't take you for the sequel!
"Director, what does the 'Old Nine Gate' mean in that line just now?"
A few words touched several leading actors. Chen Lin notified the crew to shoot a shot. Then, suddenly, the person in charge of Alibaba Pictures, who had been staying in the crew and never talked to Chen Lin, suddenly interrupted and asked.
"The Old Nine Gate is my new novel, and it is considered a predecessor to "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles"!"
Chen Lin tilted his head and looked at the person in charge of Alibaba Pictures.
Although he didn't say it clearly, Chen Lin already understood it almost. He probably wanted to buy the copyright.
"Then, the film and television adaptation rights of "Lao Jiumen", do you want to consider our Alibaba? After all, you are also your own person..."
Sure enough, this sentence came from the mouth of the middle-aged man who had a middle-aged part.
"hehe…"
Chen Lin didn't say much, staring at the middle-aged man with a smile. The latter was embarrassed to be seen and slowly avoided Chen Lin's eyes.
This idea is obviously what the middle-aged man himself means.
Nonsense, when did Chen Lin sell copyrights in the country?
Alibaba Pictures must know this thing, and they cannot propose buying out copyright.
When the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series was sold at a sky-high price, many people advised Chen Lin to sell the film and television adaptation rights of "Grave Robbers' Chronicles", Chen Lin ignored these people at all.
Looking at the online drama "Grave Robbers' Chronicles", the starring actors have nothing but their appearance online. In terms of the plot, it is difficult to even have a smooth sentence. I guess in order to pass the review, there is actually a sentence, "I want to hand over this bullhead to the country!"
You are a tomb robber, can you not be so patriotic?
But the most critical special effect is really speechless. Overall, the online drama-like "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" can be described as a heartbreaking bad situation!
Unless you meet a team you recognize, Chen Lin will never hand over the adaptation rights of his work to others.
As for "The Old Nine Gate", Chen Lin planned to polish it a little more and then hand it over to Dongyang in the afternoon.
...
"Pan Zi, where is Uncle San?"
The filming continues.
Pan Zi, played by Wang Kai, appears
“…Uncle San is gone!”
"What? It's gone? How is it possible?"
"I don't know either, but he can leave a video message..."
Chen Lin had no intention of shouting, and the camera was still facing the two of them. They continued to shoot according to their previous habits of playing.
"What video data?"
While speaking, Pan Zi signaled Wu Xie to walk in.
"Okay! Click!"
It feels different when working with professional actors.
Just give a little mention and immediately show you the performance you want!
Most of the shots pass in just one shot!
The shooting became extremely easy.
Until the hot bar students appeared.
On February 25, on the tenth day of the official shooting, students from Hot Bar joined the group.
It can't be said that she joined the group. She had been in the group for a long time, but she had no roles. Chen Lin was worried that she would lose the chain and let her watch the performances of her seniors throughout the whole process.
The little girl is quite easy to learn and often pesters Jin Dong to ask questions about her performance major. However, after Teacher Wu Gang joined the group, Reba immediately changed her goal of stealing her teacher to Teacher Wu Gang!
Wu Gang's acting skills are unique, and it is not comparable to the pillar of the People's Art Theater!
During the audition, Chen Lin clearly felt the progress of the hot bar.
"My name is Aning, I'm your colleague..."
Behind the monitor, Dilraba with a mask appeared in front of the camera.
After saying something, Chen Lin shouted directly, "Crack!"
"Tell me clearly, you are an actor or not a singer!"
It's obviously aimed at hot!
"Sorry, director, then I'll do it again..."
Di Lieba was well-behaved and reached out to signal that she had collapsed.
Chen Lin nodded and asked her to do it again. As soon as she spoke the lines, Chen Lin felt a strange feeling.
"Stop! Hot, read the lines in your most normal voice..."
"My name is Aning, I'm your colleague..."
"Isn't this a good thing? Don't go back to the previous performance mode of Jiaxing Tianxia. You are a talented actress."
...
Fang Jianhao has been very annoyed recently and is almost overwhelmed!
The reason is naturally because of "The Mermaid".
"Mermaid? Isn't Mermaid very good? I looked at the box office statistics and it will soon reach 3 billion."
When she received the call from Fang Jianhao, Chen Lin was training a classmate from Hot Bar. Her current performance is a bit too exaggerated and has already had a shadow of pattern.
"It is because the box office is too high that Zhou Xingchi is now dissatisfied with our previous guaranteed box office of 1.8 billion..."
Fang Jianhao said the matter in its original form. It turned out that Zhou Xingchi decided to participate in the share according to the Hollywood model of director's share plus basic director's fee. He directly offered to share the share of 8% of the box office!
In addition, Zhou Xingchi said strongly that if Zhao Liying's studio does not agree, they will sue the law and let the court judge fairly!
Speechless.
To be honest, Fang Jianhao had fantasies about Stephen Chow at first, but now he knows that the possibility of continuing to work with him is almost zero.
"Haha, if he wants to sue the court, let him go. Anyway, we have evidence. The 1.8 billion buyout contract signed at that time has a legal effect!"
HK people like to sue, it doesn’t matter, anyway, the studio also has a professional team of lawyers.
Then, on February 27, on the same day, Chen Lin was again received from Fang Jianhao.
Judging from the tone of the latter, he was very unhappy.
Fang Jianhao: "Zhou Xingchi has withdrawn the accusation, and this matter is over!"
"How did you do it?"
"Our lawyer convinced him, hey! I finally got in touch with Zhou Xingchi, and I really can't bear to let him leave!"
"Come on, it's a great blessing to get a chance. After all, it's Zhou Xingchi!"
Chen Lin was very open-minded. He was unlikely to become friends with Zhou Xingchi, or the entire Hong Kong circle. Everyone has different pursuits and different values!
"Guess why the person in charge of Xinghui Company told me?"
Fang Jianhao thought of something and started to make a puzzle through the phone.
"What can he tell you?"
Chen Lin was also a little curious.
"He said that as long as we are willing to provide nearly 200 million directors with dividends to Zhou Xingchi, the next movie "Mermaid 2" or "Kung Fu 2", they are willing to let us invest, otherwise if we make a sequel, we will not be working with us!"
"I'll go, where does such strong confidence come from?"
"Who made him Zhou Xingchi's? From now on, every movie he has started at least 200 million yuan in box office, and capital is profit-seeking, what do you think!"
Fang Jianhao still wants to maintain the relationship with Zhou Xingchi.
This IP is really amazing!
