Chapter 295

"Director Peng, is it because Song Yunhua is from Wanwan?"

"How is it possible?" Peng Hui asked with a strange look on his face: "How could I do this?"

"But when you won the Golden Horse Award..."

"What I am resisting are those lackeys and traitors who are trying to split our country. What does it have to do with whether they are from Taiwan or not? Look at my latest movie, there are Mr. Jin Shijie and other crooked artists. If I

I hate Wanwan artists, how can I possibly use them?"

"That's true..." Lu Yu nodded.

Speaking of Jin Shijie, Lu Yu asked curiously: "Director Peng, I found that you seem to like to use Mr. Jin Shijie very much."

"Of course." Peng Hui said affirmatively: "Back then, when I had not entered this industry, I looked for a group of people. In the end, only Mr. Jin Shijie was willing to star in a movie for an unknown newcomer like me, and the salary was paid.

It was very low. I was a poor student at the beginning. How could I have any money? Later, the song became popular, so I made up for the salary. I really admire Teacher Jin Shijie for this! The teacher has been in the industry for nearly 40 years and has mentored three people.

Some of the works of more than a dozen young directors are even bad. They are the second-generation politicians with good roots and are not short of money at all. If not to support newcomers, why would they go and make those bad movies?"

"I know, he is...cough! He is very powerful." Fortunately, Lu Yu is not an idiot, and his brain did not fail at the critical moment.

"Yeah, so since then, basically all of my works have the old man in them."

"Then why isn't it in "The Wandering Earth"?"

"Ahem! The teacher just happened to have a newborn baby at that time, and don't look at the exoskeleton armor in the theater that seems to be very easy, but that set of equipment weighs sixty pounds! Normal men would be very strenuous to wear it, let alone

An old man? Although Teacher Jin is still strong, his physical strength is really not high. I can't force others to do anything, right? He just stopped working to rest, so I can only find someone else."

"Then why use Uncle Da? As far as I know, you and Uncle Da have not had any interaction before." Lu Yu asked curiously.

"This means it's Brother Hua."

"Liu Dehua?"

"Yes, didn't I leave early when I participated in the Golden Horse Awards? Later, I met Brother Hua, and we got in touch with each other. At that time, when I heard that I was looking for an older man, Brother Hua said

Recommended Uncle Da to me."

"Oh?" Lu Yu became interested, "You just agreed?"

"Well, after I understood the situation, I agreed."

"why?"

"First of all, of course, it's because Uncle Da's salary is cheap." Peng Hui smiled, and then said: "Uncle Da is very hard-working. He has to support his family and provide alimony for several children. There's not much I can do.

I can do my best to help.”

"Director Peng is so kind."

"No, the main reason is that Uncle Da is the most cost-effective. After all, at his age, there are not many people with such a good body and acting skills." Peng Hui said with a smile: "Besides, Uncle Da is also one of the actors in Xiangjiang that I like very much. I chose him.

He's normal."

"He really earned it."

"Actually, they complement each other." Peng Hui thought for a while and said with a smile: "Before our project was established, I approached many people, but they were all rejected."

"Ah? Why? As far as I know, this project requires a lot of investment." Lu Yu asked in surprise.

The total investment of "The Wandering Earth" is nearly 500 million!

This is definitely a big production!

"The investment in this project is indeed huge, but this project... must also make money." Peng Hui said with a wry smile: "This is a science fiction movie, and in China, no science fiction movie... has ever had a box office of more than two

100 million! How many people are willing to come to a movie like this where I invested 400 million in one go and it is estimated that the box office will reach 1.2 billion to make back the money?"

"I heard that Director Peng invested all his wealth in making this movie?"

"Well, basically all the money I made in the past two years is in it." Peng Hui sighed and said with emotion.

"Speaking of which, I have a question for Director Peng. Why are you thinking about filming an online drama? And it was still during the filming of "The Wandering Earth"?" Lu Yu asked curiously.

This matter is also a question that many people find strange.

"There is no money." Peng Hui explained helplessly: "Don't look at the fact that "The Wandering Earth" has earned 5 billion now, but in fact when the filming progress reached 80%, the crew ran out of money. At that time, I

With tens of millions in hand, I can either continue filming and then raise funds for the entire crew, or I can go all-in and make money by making an online drama."

"Just to make money?" Lu Yu asked in amazement.

"Otherwise?" Peng Hui asked, "I'm busy filming every day, and I'm so exhausted from acting. How can I have time to film some online dramas?"

"I heard...Wu Jing was a guest star at the beginning?"

"Yes, I would like to thank Brother Jing here. When I heard that he was going to shoot "Wolf Warrior 2", I was optimistic about the project, so I invested 20 million. Later, when I was shooting "The Wandering Earth", Brother Jing ran away without saying a word.

He came to make a guest appearance, and later invested 60 million. Originally, his role was not much, and it would be completed in two or three days. But just because I wanted to make money by filming an online drama, he simply directed the drama for me, and he helped me for a full month.

.”

"You also help each other," Lu Yu said with emotion.

Nowadays, the top domestic movie box office ceiling is "Wolf Warrior 2" with 5.6 billion, Wu Jing's.

The second one is "The Wandering Earth" by Peng Hui, 5 billion.

There is even a formula circulated in the industry.

Peng Hui + Wu Jing = make big money.

It can be said that it is very joyful.

"Hey, no matter what, I really thank him." Peng Hui said with a smile.

"Director Peng, do you have an animated film of your own? By the way, speaking of animated films, I'm curious, why does Director Peng want to make animated films?"

"No way." Peng Hui said helplessly: "I would like to shoot a live-action movie, but...it's hard to find people."

"Oh? Don't we have a suitable candidate?"

"If you want to say that there really aren't any, that would be unrealistic, but if you want to say whether it can be done... it's too difficult." Peng Hui said with emotion.

"Oh?" Lu Yu felt that there was big news inside and asked curiously: "What Director Peng means..."

"If nothing else, that Monkey King, I wanted to find Master Xing at first, but Master Xing..." Peng Hui was helpless when he mentioned this.

Lu Yu was also in a state of sadness.

Mr. Xing has not acted for many years.
