December 24, 2009, Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve is a foreign festival!

Basically, it has nothing to do with the Chinese people. Let alone enterprises and institutions, it is a holiday. If the boss does not allow overtime work, it will be regarded as an incest among the employees.

But it's a bit sad to come here to Yang Hao. Most of the staff and cast members of the "Unfortunate Journey" crew are students from Beijing Film Academy, and these students took leave from Yang Hao early.

Director, I have a headache tomorrow and want to take a day off?

Director, my aunt is coming tomorrow, so I have to stay at home.

Director, I want to go to the Lama Temple tomorrow to find a great lama to find a good match for me. You said that I have written love letters to 147 girls in our school, but no girl is willing to pay attention to me?

…

If one person and two people ask for leave, it's okay. Yang Hao can ask his colleagues in the crew to take over, and basically the work will not be delayed. However, if more than half of the crew of 100 people take leave, then the crew will not be able to shoot normally. Conducted.

Therefore, Yang Hao could only give everyone a holiday.

On December 24th, the crew of "Unfortunately" took a day off, and on Christmas Day, the crew resumed filming.

The crew was on holiday, but Yang Hao couldn't rest.

Tomorrow, everyone will officially start work at Beijing Film Studio No. 1 Studio. As the director of "The Lost Road", Yang Hao must go there in advance to take a look.

How is the train carriage installed?

How to arrange the camera positions in the train carriage?

Can the LED displays on both sides of the carriage play normally?

Yang Hao needed to confirm all of these, so early on the 24th, he came out of Hejingyuan Community, crossed Xitucheng Road, and walked into the Beijing Film Studio.

In fact, before the Olympic Games last year, China Film Group had already built 16 large studios at its digital base in Huairou, some of which were as large as 5,000 square meters.

Therefore, compared to the past, the business of Beijing Film Studio is much lighter now. In the past, the crews queuing up to film in the factory area have completely disappeared now. There are only a few film and television crews who are unwilling to go to Huairou and are using the photography here. Exterior view of the shed.

The reason why Yang Hao chose this location for the filming of "Unfortunate Journey" was not because it was close to home, but because it was cheap.

The rent per square meter per day is one yuan, which was something that would have been unthinkable in the past.

In this way, Yang Hao walked forward while thinking about his own affairs. Soon, he arrived at the door of Studio No. 1.

Just as Yang Hao was about to open the door and go in, a middle-aged woman with short hair walked out of a car on the side of the road.

"Uh, Mr. Chang, why are you here?"

Yang Hao looked a little surprised when he saw Chang Jihong.

Some time ago, I arbitrarily converted Wang Luodan's guest-starring salary into shares in "On the Road". This old lady even complained about her boss's displeasure and kept yelling on the phone...

Yang Hao, isn’t he like you?

After he tricked me, he tricked Wang Luodan again. Now it's fine. When Wang Luodan came to the company, he gave me a piece of paper, saying that next time the company helped her take a role, she wouldn't need to take her share, and he would just use it. This white strip tops the tent.

Unexpectedly, less than a week later, this eldest sister would come to see me.

"Yang Hao..."

"Um?"

"Don't look at me like that. I said a few days ago that I never want to see you again.

But one code is the same, there are some serious things I still need to talk to you about."

After all, Chang Jihong was a very professional entertainment agent. He walked to the door of Studio No. 1, pushed open the door of the studio with Yang Hao, and then walked in first.

"Yang Hao, were the last few scenes of "A Journey Away" filmed here?"

"yes!"

"Approximately when will the filming be completed?"

“Before or after the Gregorian calendar!”

Yang Hao, who boarded the train carriage, did not dare to say anything, because Wang Baoqiang seemed to have received a new script. If the filming of the crew, which he had little money to make, did not go smoothly, he would have to wait for his time.

"Then when do you plan to release "The Journey"?"

"New Year's Day!"

"When did you say it would be released?"

Chang Jihong, who accompanied Yang Hao into the train carriage, had a look of shock on his face!

"February 14, 2010, the first day of the Lunar New Year, and also Valentine's Day in the West. What's wrong, Mr. Chang? Do you have any questions?"

Yang Hao, who was standing in the aisle and checking the facilities in the train carriage, asked without looking back.

"hehe…"

At this time, Chang Jihong smiled, took out a piece of paper from the bag he carried with him, and read loudly:

"On February 1, 2010, "Happy Event 2010" starring Louis Koo will be released; on February 4, "The Golden Guard" starring Zhao Yanzi and Zhen Zi will be released; on February 5, "The Future" starring Andy Lau will be released

"Police" will be released; on February 9, "Su Qier" starring Jay Chou and Zhou Xun will be released; on February 10, "Love in the City" starring Ting Feng, Jacky You and Yan Zu will be released; on February 11

"72 Tenants" starring Zhiwei, Jacky Yu and Anita will be released soon;

On February 14th, which is the first day of the Lunar New Year, "The God of Wealth" starring Principal Tan and "Little Soldier" starring Tan Long will be released at the same time.

Yang Hao, newspapers are now saying that the 2010 Spring Festival will be the most brutal Spring Festival in the history of Chinese films. Within a month, 15 movies will join the fray.

Under such circumstances, are you sure you still want "Journey on the Road" to be released in major theaters across the country?"

"Yeah."

After listening to Chang Jihong's introduction, Yang Hao touched his chin with his hand.

“Next year’s Spring Festival will indeed be tragic enough!

How about..., Mr. Chang, let’s change the release date of “The Journey” to February 13th, which is New Year’s Eve?”

puff…

After listening to Yang Hao's words, Chang Jihong almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yang Hao, Dog Day, tell me, what’s the difference between New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day? What’s the difference between February 13th and February 14th?

Angry, he wanted to leave, but when he thought of the 150,000 yuan note and the 90,000 yuan rental contract in his drawer, Chang Jihong endured it and explained his intention to Yang Hao.

"Yang Hao, you asked me to help you contact film distribution companies, and I helped you contact them. One is Star America and the other is Bona. These two distribution companies have their own theater chains.

And the reason why I came to see you today is to confirm the release date of this movie with you. However, Yang Hao, I didn’t expect that you were so unreliable and insisted on setting the release date of "A Man on the Road"

During the Spring Festival?”

"Mr. Chang, the story "People on the Road" reflects the Spring Festival travel season. If it is not broadcast during the Spring Festival, how can it be broadcast on May Day?" Yang Hao asked with a smile.

"What happened to May Day?

On May Day, we might even be able to get a high box office. By then, domestic movie theaters will basically have no films competing with "The Lost Way"..."

However, before Chang Jihong finished speaking, he heard Yang Hao, who was busy in the carriage, saying:

"Mr. Chang, although the movie "Unfortunately" does not have any big-name stars, the publicity and distribution expenses have not been collected yet...
Chapter completed!
