Chapter 33: Mr.Boss (2/2)
Wang Yang didn't talk about this topic anymore. He never thought of letting everyone agree that he filmed ”High School Musical”. Just like now, he doesn't need Sandy Pikes to understand, he just needs everyone to put his own To do the job well, all you need is Sandy Pikes to help him complete the production of the crew.
”The investment in” High School Musical ”is about 5 million. Of course, this is just my rough estimate. In fact, the first criterion is to make a good movie.” Wang Yang looked at the employees and said that he took out a note According to the book of shooting needs, the office secretary Miss Fuona-Hasson gave Sandy Pikes. The book contains the scenes, props, crowd actors and other information needed for the movie. He told Sandy: ”Sandy, the movie It was shot with 35MM film, and the entire script was about 200 minutes long. You can make a budget for me. ”
Sandy Pikes took the book and nodded, ”Okay.”
The so-called 5 million is just an investment grade, 5 million is a small cost production, and it will definitely not invite any popular actors to appear; but it is not a mandatory requirement of 5 million, and sometimes the budget is increased to 6 million, or save money Up to 4 million is okay.
”Also, we need to find choreographers and arrangers. This is a song and dance film. But the work of setting up the crew is temporarily behind.” Wang Yang knocked on the script and was a bit excited. Casting. ”
Mark Srant took the conversation and laughed: ”So, the publicity for” High School Musical ”is about to begin.” He looked to Simon Willis, the manager of the distribution department, and said: ”Simon, I asked you to contact you yesterday A media interviewed us, how is it now? ”
”I've already contacted the entertainment page of the Los Angeles Times.” Simon Willis glanced at Wang Yang with a sigh of laughter: ”As soon as they heard 'Magic Yang's company, Magic Yang's second movie ', You know, they cried out with' wow '! They can't wait to do this interview, I will arrange the interview time in the afternoon, the place is in our company, is it okay? ”
”No problem.” Wang Yang nodded and smiled, ”I'm here.”
After the meeting, Wang Yang returned to his personal small office and continued to write the split-screen script of ”High School Musical” on the computer. I have been busy acquiring the company for more than a week. After the acquisition, I have to agree with Mark-Slante on the development strategy. He has no time to design a split shot, so that the script is only less than half completed.
Wang Yang now understands why Stephen Spielberg did not attend any DreamWorks financial meeting, and why he would say, ”I hope that any meeting I attend will end in two minutes.” The reason is simple. Spielberg prefers to be a director rather than a businessman. Wang Yang breathed out of his chair leaning on his chair for more than a week, and he felt physically and mentally tired. In addition to the freshness at the beginning, the next step is boring. Everyday wearing a suit to negotiate and meet in the conference room, sometimes it is really more tiring than sending flyers on the street.
Fortunately, now the company needs to deal with all the tasks he needs to deal with, and then to Mark-Srant, he can finally do what he likes and wants to do the most.
”GO, GO, GO!” Wang Yang cheered himself up, revitalized, looking at the screen, his hands pounding on the keyboard.
Troy, the protagonist of High School Musical, came to the selection of the musical and hid behind the mop car with the heroine Gabriella. They were all afraid that others might find themselves interested in the selection of the musical. The selection is over, only the teacher Dabus who is in charge of the selection, and the **** the stage who is responsible for piano accompaniment, Casey Nielsen, seeing that teacher Dabus is going away, Gabriella finally found the courage to jump out , Saying that he came for selection, but Troy hid aside.
The original version of the TV movie. In the next shooting, when Mr. Dabus said to Gabriella that ”the selection is over and you have no partner”, Troy jumped out and said he was the partner.
In this section, there was no shot for Troy in hiding, did not express his psychological struggle, and later came out in a jump, the rhythm is very abrupt. So Wang Yang added a set of materials, pointed the camera at Troy hiding behind the wall, and filmed his expression when he heard Teacher Buss ’s words, showing that he had to struggle and change before he found the courage to go out.
One morning, Wang Yang was writing a sub-screen script. At noon, he went to the restaurant on the second floor to eat, and then returned to the office to continue writing.
Time came in the afternoon, and the female reporter Kim Sylvie of the Los Angeles Times also came to the headquarters of the Flame Film Company. Wang Yang naturally wanted to receive her, took her around the company and took some photos. But what she wanted most was the photo of the nameplate on the company's door, but she couldn't take it because the manufacturer hadn't delivered the goods. She had to take some photos of the busy office.
The focus of this interview is ”High School Musical”, introducing Wang Yang's new company is only next, so in the reception room, she asked Wang Yang a few questions like ”what does it feel to be a boss”, and then she tried her best. The situation of the second film ”High School Musical” he planned to shoot.
”Can you tell us what the story of the movie looks like?” Kim Sylvie sat on the sofa with a black camera on his neck, a ballpoint pen in one hand, and a ballpoint pen in one hand. Looking at the small paper, Wang Yang asked.
Wang Yang sat on the other side of the leather sofa and answered her: ”I can only say that this is an inspirational story, a story about how young people have the courage to face themselves and get really happy.” The specific content is of course unclear It's a little bit of a tone, so as to arouse everyone's curiosity and expectation, and to achieve the early publicity effect.
Kim Sylvie naturally knew this, and she did n’t ask, holding a pen to quickly record on the paper, asking: “Why would you make a school song and dance movie? What made you suddenly make this kind of movie? ”
”I shouldn't be surprised to shoot campus movies? I am still a young man.” Wang Yang smiled and replied: ”The reason is actually very simple, I want to shoot, and I also think it is suitable for shooting, so I Feeling away. ”
”You know, many people think you will continue to make horror movies. Have you ever worried that this” High School Musical ”will not be accepted?” Kim Sylvie looked at Wang Yang sincerely and added another sentence: ”Can you talk about your expectations for this movie?”
”I do n’t have this worry,” Ghost Record ”is not all of me; and” High School Musical ”is a completely different new attempt for me. This is my first time shooting a film film. I will let everyone see Another me. ”Suddenly, Wang Yang said confidently:” Of course, I have high expectations for this movie, it will be liked by everyone, I have this confidence. ”He understood that only he showed strong Confidence will only arouse everyone's attention.
Next, Wang Yang continued to answer many questions of King-Sylvie, including some personal life, ”You have become the youngest multi-millionaire, why do you still live in a small apartment?”, ”You Do you have a girlfriend? ”,” I heard that you are very popular in high school, is that true? Will this ”High School Musical” be the epitome of your high school? ”
These gossip problems caused Wang Yang to have a headache. He was really worried that the interview published by the Los Angeles Times tomorrow will be two-thirds of these gossip problems, leaving only one-third for ”Singing and Dance Youth.”
After returning home at night, Wang Yang, who took a hot bath, came to the computer, prepared to rest for a while, and then boarded his own MSN. He dragged the list of online contacts. When he saw Rachel online, he couldn't help but smile and clicked to send a line of words in the past: ”Hi, Rachel.” After the end of the publicity work of ”Ghost Record”, Rachel I went back to Toronto, but they basically contacted the Internet every one or two days, occasionally chatting on the phone. UU Reading
”Hi, Yang.” Rachel quickly replied with a line of words.
Wang Yang typed: ”I think you will come to Los Angeles in two days, because” High School Musical ”is about to start casting!” After the script was written, he mentioned it when he chatted with Rachel. The general content of the movie also mentioned that she is suitable for the role of ”Shapei Evans” the female number two.
”Call me.” Rachel typed. Wang Yang's finger quickly tapped on the keyboard a few times and said, ”Why didn't you call me?” Rachel immediately replied: ”Oh, shouldn't the youngest multimillionaire pay the bill? ”Wang Yang couldn't help but smiled, hit an” OK ”and sent it over, then picked up the phone and dialed in. When he connected, he smiled and said:” Hey, stingy. ”
”Hi, rich man.” Rachel's crisp laughter came over and she said: ”Yang, did you find an investment?” She didn't yet know about Wang Yang's acquisition of A-Pix, thinking that it was just pulling investors Too.
Wang Yang said mysteriously: ”No, I said, I invested myself. In fact, I just bought a film company.” Rachel exclaimed suddenly, ”Oh, my God! Really ?!” Wang Yang laughed haha and enjoyed his friend ’s surprise. He kept concealing this acquisition and wanted to give his friends a “surprise”. He smiled and said, “Yes, you can call me 'Mr. Boss' now. . ”
”OK, Mr. Boss, tell me, what the **** is going on?” Rachel smiled.
