Because everyone was acquaintances, Zhao Wei was outspoken and told the key to this without any politeness. Making movies is still about money. Ye Ming had to explain: "Actually, I applied for the support fund from the Radio, Film and Television Bureau. Don't they have a support program for young directors? I happened to apply, and they were approved for 500,000 yuan. I will try to get some more later. , there should be no problem in making a movie. Besides, Mr. San promised to give us a discount when renting the machine and charge a sentimental price. I think the cost of filming will be around one million." Similarly, Zhao Wei's eyes lit up. Although she cared about money, she cared more about the name of the support fund that Ye Ming applied for. This represented the key cultivation of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau. With this name, she would suffer less resistance. Therefore, Zhao Wei nodded without hesitation and said: "In that case, there is no problem. What kind of role do you want us to play? Let's talk about it." Fan Binbin also asked curiously from the side: "Yes, yes, what kind of role is it? I like challenging roles best." Ye Ming said apologetically: "Actually, this is a man's play, and women are just supporting roles in it. Here is the script, you two, read it." With that said, Ye Ming sent the script over. After the two of them had watched it, Ye Ming said: "Zhao Wei, I want you to play the role of the male protagonist's wife, and Binbin will play the role of the little girl in the game arcade. What do you think? The price is not low, five thousand each. The price for supporting roles isn’t bad.” Five thousand yuan, according to the current market conditions, the price of this supporting role is indeed not bad.
Fan Binbin complained: "Brother Ming, this scene is too small. How about changing roles? How about I play Brother Dao's wife? I think that is quite challenging. I don't know if you have found someone." No?" Ye Ming shook his head and said: "No, the style of that role is not suitable for you. I have already looked at the candidates. I think you are quite suitable to play that little girl." Hearing this, Fan Binbin angrily picked up his chopsticks and launched a fierce attack on the food on the table. It means turning anger into food. The silent protest made people laugh. Fan Ye's protest was indeed unique. Zhao Wei didn't think there was anything good about it. In fact, she originally wanted to challenge herself to see if she could play the role of Brother Dao's wife, but when she heard Ye Ming say that there was already a candidate, she didn't put in too much competition. At that moment, Zhao Wei nodded decisively and said, "No problem. I've watched this role and it won't take more than a few days. I have no problem at all. When will it be shot specifically?" Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "A month, almost a month from now, the screening will start, and I will let you know then. Also, if you see Huang Xiaoming, ask him if he likes the role of the thief in it, I I think it’s a good fit for him. If he’s willing to star, he’ll get the same salary as you. He’s a small business and has no money.” Being able to pull his second brother into his chariot, Ye Ming would naturally not let go of such an opportunity. Now Ye Ming and Huang Xiaoming are not very familiar with each other, so the only way to find out what he means is through Zhao Wei. Who knows, Zhao Wei said in a generous tone: "How many people are you still missing? How about I bring Chen Kun over? Anyway, they are idle and should be happy to train themselves." When Ye Ming heard the name Chen Kun, he nodded and said, "Okay, you can take the script back. If there are no problems, the role of Xie Xiaomeng will be his. Time is tight and the task is heavy. Please work hard." Rather than looking for unfamiliar actors, Ye Ming still prefers to find actors he is familiar with, such as Er Ge and Chen Kun. The next day, Ye Ming found Hong Fei again. At this time, Hong Fei was busy with the album. The only person who could make money for the company was Ye Ming. If he didn't take care of him, the company would close down. . Therefore, the company still attaches great importance to Ye Ming's release of an album. Ye Ming went to Hong Fei and said, "Brother Fei, can you help me find an actor? Crazy Stone is short of an actor. I want to find a suitable one." Only then did Hong Fei remember that Ye Ming wanted to make a movie. After thinking about it, he said: "Who are you looking for? Just invest in your movie. You can find a few famous actors in the circle. And us We also need to pay special attention to the people in the company.” A company naturally wants to praise its own artists. Ye Ming also knew his weaknesses, so he said without thinking: "I know that I don't have much money, and there are many places to spend it, and I still have to leave 300,000 for post-production. Therefore, the actors I look for are all I found basically all the newbies, the leading actors, who are all my friends, and the price starts at 5,000, which is not a big deal. The only thing left is an actress, who will play the wife of the boss of a thief gang.
As for our company, Brother Fei, tell the truth, except for Li Dachuan, do the remaining few have any abilities? They are all newcomers, so there is no problem in playing a supporting role. I chose Li Dachuan for the supporting role. " His own brother, Li Dachuan, is of course a man who is obsessed with getting rich. Hong Fei saw that Ye Ming was down-to-earth and hired several famous actors. The crew had to overspend. At that moment, Hong Fei said: "It's better to let them get familiar with the crew first. Tell me what's going on. Who should I look for?" Ye Ming said without thinking: "Tang Wei, I want to find an actress named Tang Wei, but she is nineteen years old. It is said that she is a model, but I don't know which model company in Beijing specifically. ” Tang Wei, speaking of it, was also an actress with a bad fate. However, in the last life, Ye Ming also focused on Tang Wei's information. Therefore, he clearly remembered that at this time, Tang Wei was already a model in a modeling agency. , so if you are looking for her to play the role of the boss's wife, this is more appropriate. Hong Fei thought for a while and said: "It would be easier if there is a name. I will give you news in three days. In three days, the modeling circle is only so big. Don't worry, as long as she is a member of the circle, It’s easy to find.” The modeling industry is actually inseparable from the entertainment industry. According to Fei Ge's status in the industry, it is relatively easy to find a model. However, this is not what Hong Fei cares about. What Hong Fei cares about is Ye Ming's album. This is the company's key work. Therefore, at this time, Hong Fei said without politeness: "Don't worry about the movie. I will help you find the actors. But what about your album? Have you decided on the songs? What if you find someone to write them?" As for the song, it still costs a lot of money, but I guess you don’t need to find someone to write the song, right?” There is no other way. For the sake of the company, just save whatever you can, right? Hong Fei is very clear about the price of a good song, which is higher than the salary of a second-tier actor. Therefore, under such a situation, he felt that with Ye Ming's talent, there was no need to let others write songs. Ye Ming was also very sad and flattered decisively: "Brother Fei, you understand me. As for the songs, I chose [Mouse Loves Rice] [I Believe] [Blue and White Porcelain] [Invisible Wings], and there is another song I just wrote [Legend]. These five songs are being produced first, and I have already thought of the name of the album, so it is called [Legend], which is also the title song of this album.” These songs were all expected by Hong Fei. It would be strange if Ye Ming released an album with these songs, but [Legend], he had never heard of this song. . Hong Fei frowned and said, "The previous songs are all easy to talk about, and they are widely sung, but the title song is called [Legend]? I think it is still called [Blue and White Porcelain] or [Invisible]" Wings] or something is better. Of these two songs, one is a song from the Spring Festival Gala and is now a symbol of popular music. Or "Invisible Wings", which is also quite good. After all, it is the theme song of Zhang Yimou's movie, which has a certain promotion effect on the album. It seems inappropriate for you to use other songs. " Who knew, but Ye Ming said very firmly: "This can't be changed. The first three songs were all exposed, and [Blue and White Porcelain] even appeared on the Spring Festival Gala. Although the last Spring Festival Gala was a fluke, But after all, it is the Spring Festival Gala, and the songs that have been exposed are not suitable for the title song. Just [Legend], this is a promise of mine, and I guarantee that this song is not bad at all. My suggestion for these five songs is [Rat] "Love Rice] is expressed in the form of animation, and the rest is filmed on MTV. What do you think?" Generally speaking, when a singer releases an album now, it usually consists of ten or twelve songs. However, this is an illusion that everyone has. In fact, from an international standard, according to the definition of the British Singles Chart, the basic condition for an album is at least four songs, or more than twenty minutes in length. Of course, this includes all music albums such as singing or pure music. Hong Fei thought for a while and then said: "The company will fully support you. After all, we will make a fortune when you become famous. You should prepare the other songs as much as possible. It is best to have the twelve songs ready before we record them together." .” There is no need to count on the other people in Yonghua, at least for the time being. Even Li Dachuan is just a third-rate partner now, so he still has to count on Ye Ming. It would be strange not to fully support Ye Ming at this time. Ye Ming replied without hesitation: "Brother Fei, don't worry about this. Baihua Palace has promised to record an album for me for free. I also have the master tape of [Invisible Wings] recorded in Lingxiao Palace. Don't worry about the song." , it can be recorded in a week. But it takes some time to shoot the MTV, so Fei Ge has to worry about the rest." At this time, Hong Fei was also stunned. Baihua Palace is one of the three top recording studios in the country. If you go to the Garden of Eden in Hong Kong City or the Buckingham Palace on the island, the cost will be much higher. At this time, Hong Fei was thinking about how to go. How to come up with this cost? I didn't expect that Ye Ming would be able to handle it all so quickly. The most worrying thing about releasing an album is song selection. Now this is obviously not a problem, and the next step will be much easier. (To be continued)
