"Mr. Qiao, take a look at this information. This is the result of everyone's discussion."

The "Ghost Blowing Lamp" project is in action. While confirming the capital, Zhang Hui and the others also began to screen for suitable directors. In the end, a director was recommended by everyone.

Wu Shan is a well-known director in the industry. He is thirty-six years old. He once studied in the Oil Painting Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts and the Directing Department of the Beijing Film Academy.

Wushan is good at shooting fantasy movies. The fantasy movie "Fox Fairy" shot three years ago received high box office and reputation.

The most important thing is that Wushan is good at spending money. Being good at spending money means that he spends money wisely. Qiao Zhiguo couldn't help but laugh after reading Wushan's information carefully.

"Isn't this just a replica of Wu Dao?"

Qiao Zhiguo couldn't help but said in his heart.

But looking at the information, he is indeed more suitable for filming the "Ghost Blowing Lamp" series of movies.

"Ghost Blowing the Lamp" requires a large investment and is very difficult to shoot. You must find a director who has control. Compared with another time and space, the investment in this movie now is even greater.

The investment for the first "Jingjue Ancient City" was as high as 700 million, of which 600 million was production funds. How to spend these 600 million and how to use the money to create the best effect is a special test of the director's skills.

"Then let him. When you sign the contract, sign the entire series."

Qiao Zhiguo nodded and signed the document directly.

Signing them together will ensure the unity of the entire movie's style. The same goes for the actors in it. They will directly sign for seven movies to ensure the unity of the entire movie.

According to the plan, seven major movies will be made in seven years, and the whole process is very stressful. However, this is just a plan, and it must be determined based on the actual situation in the end. The quality of the work cannot be affected by rushing the work.

As night fell, Qiao Zhiguo was busy in the kitchen in Qiao Zhiguo's apartment.

There was a knock on the door and Qiao Zhiguo opened the door.

"Teacher Qiao"

Wu Shan and Zhang Hui stood outside the door.

"The martial arts director is here, come on, please come in."

Qiao Zhiguo said with a smile, Wu Shan and Zhang Hui entered the house. Wu Shan was also very happy to see Qiao Zhiguo. In the entertainment industry, Qiao Zhiguo has a very good reputation. Coupled with Qiao Zhiguo's current reputation, he has already become famous in the industry.

It is no secret that "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" will be made into a series of major movies. After all, this project has been launched for a long time. As early as before, Zhiguo Entertainment had been in contact with many directors in the industry, including Wu Shan.

During this time, Wu Shan was also pursuing the novel "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", and sometimes he would think about how he would film it if this novel was made into a movie.

But he didn't expect that he would actually be filming this series of movies in the end.

After receiving the call today, Wu Shan took a long time to calm down.

This time it is a super big production, with seven series of movies and an investment of 5 billion. And the treatment is also very awesome, with a direct 10% dividend. Such dividends are very rare in China. Even in

In Hollywood, only the top directors can get this dividend ratio.

At the same time, this movie also limits the pay, leaving more funds for film production.

The funds are abundant, sincerity is full, and the capital does not randomly arrange actors. How could Wushan refuse such a good thing?

"Come, sit down and chat while we eat."

Qiao Zhiguo asked Wu Shan to sit down. Looking at a table of sumptuous dishes, Wu Shan felt very comfortable.

It is indeed different. Qiao Zhiguo makes people feel very friendly, without any airs or arrogance. He cooks by himself, which is not the case for many capital tycoons in the industry.

"Martial Arts Director, what would you like to drink?"

Qiao Zhiguo brought out a lot of wine, including white wine, red wine, beer, and foreign wine.

"Just drink it white, drink less."

Wu Shan also laughed, and he liked it. Drinking and chatting, this is the most common way for Chinese people to shorten the distance.

Qiao Zhiguo directly picked up two bottles of Maotai and placed them on the table, and the three of them sat down.

"Well, Teacher Qiao's cooking skills are truly well-deserved."

After taking a bite of Qiao Zhiguo's cooking, Wu Shan couldn't help but say, Qiao Zhiguo's cooking skills are truly well-deserved. The taste is even better than those made by famous chefs.

"Some common food, come and go."

Qiao Zhiguo said with a smile, and the three of them raised their glasses and started drinking.

"Mr. Qiao, thank you for your trust in me. I will do my best to make this movie well. Regarding this series of movies, Teacher Qiao, I have some opinions of my own."

While eating and chatting, the two of them soon became chatty.

"you say."

Qiao Zhiguo nodded, very curious.

"I think we should try to industrialize the film. To learn from Hollywood and build the most scientific and professional team, I think we must do at least three things: First, standardize, establish working rules and models at the management level, and establish standardized processes. Second

It is management. How to arrange and combine this standardization in an orderly manner is very critical. A complete management system must be established. The third is the role of people. Only by living in peace can we provide a relatively good environment for the crew.

Let them maintain the best physical condition so that they can create and perform better."

Wu Shan expressed his thoughts, which coincided with Qiao Zhiguo's.

"Director Wu, you and I want to go together. The industrialization of film has been proposed in China for many years. However, the progress has been very slow. This has a lot to do with the investors, and also has a lot to do with our Chinese culture.

When we encounter problems, the first thing we do is find relationships and favors. But in film production, sometimes these relationships and favors will affect the quality of the work. This time "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" can also be considered an opportunity."

Qiao Zhiguo's words made Wu Shan very happy, as if he had found a soulmate. After drinking some wine, Wu Shan couldn't help complaining about the chaos in the domestic film and television industry.

When making a movie in China, there are really too many things to worry about.

Many times the capital side likes to interfere randomly. Especially when it comes to actors, those capitals will either talk to you about relationships, give you favors, or directly tell you that you must use them.

In a word, I just want to squeeze people in. Everyone wants to take a bite of a piece of cake. Those actors and actresses are like a group of flies that want to bite.

"Director, for this series of "Ghost Blowing Out the Lamp" series, you just let go. If anything happens, I'll support you and shoot according to your ideas. As for offending people, leave it to me. Anyway, old man, I won't do it.

I'm not afraid of offending people. Besides, there aren't many people who dare to offend me."

Qiao Zhiguo's words made Wu Shan laugh.

This is true. Wushan is sometimes afraid of offending people, but Qiao Zhiguo is not afraid. Not only that, many people are also afraid of offending Qiao Zhiguo. Now Qiao Zhiguo is not just a director but an artist. Zhiguo Entertainment is now considered a big player in the industry.

Capital. Now it’s not Qiao Zhiguo who needs to attract investment, but the capital who brings money to his door and begs Qiao Zhiguo to use it.

The two chatted happily, drinking and chatting. Zhang Hui watched the two chatting with smiles on their faces. Qiao Zhiguo has this kind of magic power. Even strangers, as long as they have the right temperament, they can quickly...

Chat together.

The two talked about film production, stories, and characters.

When Qiao Zhiguo talked about the candidate for Fatty Wang, Wushan had nothing to say. This damn image fits the image so well, and the image of Huang Bo is so close to the image in the book. When Wushan read the novel, the first thing that came to his mind was the same

This one plays the role of the black-skinned Huang Bo.

"Teacher Qiao, when it comes to starring, I really have an actor in mind who I think is more suitable."

With that said, Wu Shan took out his mobile phone and found a few photos in the photo album. Seeing these photos, Qiao Zhiguo was shocked, isn't this Brother Huo Hua?

"This man's name is Liu Ye. He is twenty-two years old this year. He is a graduate of military arts. We have cooperated with him for a short time before. He is a very spiritual young man."

Wu Shan said with a smile.

"You have the final say regarding actors."

Qiao Zhiguo's words made Wu Shan laugh. Wu Shan didn't like other people to point fingers and had his own understanding of the movie Wu Shan.

Qiao Zhiguo doesn't want to get involved now, he just wants to quietly be a qualified investor. As the author of a novel, he can express his own opinions, but Qiao Zhiguo doesn't care how the movie is shot in the end.

There are many stories and characters in the book. But it is impossible for a movie to show all the stories. After all, the movie is only two hours long and there is not much that can be shown.

How to refine the story is the editor's job. The 50 million editing fee is not free.

But how to tell the extracted story well is the director's business. The story must be coherent, have no gaps, be refreshing enough, and not destroy the integrity of the story. This is very difficult.

"Teacher Qiao, I can't drink anymore. I really can't drink anymore."

It was a pleasant meal and a pleasant drink. Wushan actually has a very good alcohol capacity. As a man on the grassland, it is okay to drink a pound of liquor per person.

In the circle, Wu Shan is famous for his ability to drink. Today, he met his opponent. Each of them drank a bottle of Moutai, and Qiao Zhiguo felt no reaction at all. Wu Shan had finally seen Qiao Zhiguo's drinking capacity.

Wu Shan left Qiao Zhiguo's residence, and Wu Yang drove Wu Shan back.

"Xiao Hui, during this period, you asked someone to look for domestic special effects companies. Find ones with relatively simple and clean backgrounds and fairly strong capabilities and directly acquire them."

Qiao Zhiguo looked at Zhang Hui and said.

"OK"

Zhang Hui nodded. Zhang Hui had no objection to Qiao Zhiguo's decision. Besides, Zhang Hui thought it was very good.

It is very good for Zhiguo Entertainment to control a special effects company. After all, Zhiguo Entertainment may have more and more movies in the future, and more and more special effects will be used. If you have your own special effects company, you can directly control it.

Make money for your own people.

However, the special effects company found according to Qiao Zhiguo's conditions may not be too strong. However, considering Qiao Zhiguo's work style, he always likes to use small things to make big gains. The special effects company may develop rapidly in Qiao Zhiguo's hands. After all, Qiao Zhiguo is still willing to do so.
