Chapter 614: 615 [Love Through Time and Space]

   Chapter 614 615 [Love Through Time and Space]

   In mid-July, "Waiting Alone" officially started shooting.

  Xiang Nan is now in the circle, with both connections and influence. So as soon as he said hello, everyone came.

  However, many people don't understand his investment in making movies.

"Xiao Yuan, investing in filming is not an easy task. It's not like buying antiques, where the real is the real and the fake is the fake, and the real is the fake." Wang Gang persuaded, "Movies are not like this. There's nothing left."

  Xiang Nan nodded.

  Movies are indeed not that easy to invest in. Approval, reporting, shooting, review, distribution, any link may have an accident, and any link may be stuck.

  Even top directors like Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, and Chen Kaige have had problems.

  Chen Peisi is such a well-known star, even if he invested in making a movie, he was robbed of all his money. It can be seen that this line of work is really risky.

   But he still wants to try.

   First, if you don’t go into the river yourself, you will never know the depth of the water; second, being an actor is never as good as making capital to make money.

   "Thank you, Uncle Wang, for reminding me, I will be careful." Xiang Nan nodded.

  He hasn't been a fool for a few years. I also got to know a lot of various contacts, and they can still help at critical moments.

  …

   "Waiting Alone", Xiang Nan is both the lead actor and investor. It is very tiring to have a good show and to care about the cost.

  However, watching the movie according to the script, the scene is filmed, the sense of accomplishment is still very strong.

  During the shooting of the movie, many interesting things happened.

  The biggest case was that when Tang Wei turned into a beautiful woman for the first time, all the men in the audience took a deep breath.

   Tang Wei is not actually a beauty at first sight. Her facial features are slightly blunted, and her complexion is not very fair, so she looks a bit rustic.

  When Xiang Nan worked as an assistant before, so many people had seen her, but no one regarded her as a beauty. However, I didn't expect that now that the makeup is done, the shape is changed, and the lighting is turned on, Tang Wei will transform into a beautiful woman with a variety of styles and beauty.

"I go!"

   "I really didn't see it!"

   "It's too far away!"

   "I really want to change myself!"

  Everyone sighed.

   Only Xiang Nan smiled slightly. He knew Tang Wei was a beautiful woman long ago, and seeing her now, she really looks good.

  …

  In September, "Waiting Alone" was officially completed and entered post-production.

  Xiang Nan contacted the issuing company while keeping an eye on the later stage.

  In the 1990s, after the reform of the film industry, the distribution of films in the Mainland has also entered a stage where all the heroes are rising together.

  In the early days, the film release was still very chaotic. Concealing the box office, withdrawing files without reason, poor publicity... There are many disadvantages.

   Chen Peisi said bluntly that this business is really too dark. He, who has made excellent comedies such as "The Two Sons Series", "The Filial Son Serves", "Auspicious Empress Dowager", was so deceived that he quit the industry directly.

  However, after two years of adjustments, the market has gradually become more formalized and industrialized, and has become more and more mature.

   It can be seen from the box office.

  Nowadays, the box office of mainland movies is getting higher every year.

  In June 2002, "Hero" directed by Zhang Yimou, with a total investment of 30 million US dollars, officially kicked off the prelude to the domestic blockbuster.

  The total box office also reached 230 million RMB, setting a box office record for domestic films that can be checked, and officially opening the door to the industrialization of mainland films.

   Because of this, Xiang Nan has the courage to invest in movies.

   In the past few years, when there was still chaos, he wouldn't dare to spend money like that if he was killed.

  With the standardization of the film industry in the mainland, several major players in the distribution field have basically been finalized.

  China Film, Huayi, Guangguang, Bona and other companies are giants in this field.

   And after reading the script and the well-cut trailer, they are still very interested in this movie.

   For one thing, there are many stars involved in this movie. Xiang Nan, Gao Yuanyuan, Wang Fei, Na Jie, Wang Gang, Sun Honglei, Lu Yi, Leslie Cheung...

  Xiang Nan almost overdrawn all the contacts he has accumulated in the entertainment industry over the years, so he created this all-star lineup. Even if there is a passer-by who shows a little bit, they are all cameos by big-name celebrities.

  Secondly, the story of this movie is still very interesting. The love comedy stories of urban men and women will never lack audiences. In addition, Xiang Nan's box office appeal is not bad, so several major distribution companies are willing to release it.

  …

  In mid-September, Xiang Nan took advantage of the late stage of the movie to take over the filming of a new movie "Love Through Time and Space".

   This drama claims to be the first time-travel drama in the mainland, invested by Zhouyi Film and Television Production Company. In fact, as early as two years ago, they wanted to cooperate with Xiang Nan.

  The project they submitted at that time was "Li Wei as an Official", and that drama was actually quite good. It's a pity that Xiang Nan didn't want to wear a headgear at that time, so he missed the chance.

  But this time, Xiang Nan took over the "Love Through Time and Space".

   Firstly, he had watched this drama before and found it very interesting; secondly, in order to invite him to make this drama, Zhou Yi offered a sky-high price of 200,000 yuan per episode, which was considered very sincere.

   It just so happened that Xiang Nantou filmed "Waiting Alone" and spent 3 million RMB, but I don't know if he can make money. So, let's shoot this movie first, it can be regarded as making up for the shortfall in the wallet.

   After Xiang Nan entered the group, he found that he had been fooled. It turned out that Zhou Yi actually invited Zhou Xun to be the heroine, which was beyond his expectation.

  He originally thought that the heroine this time would be Taiwanese beauty Zhang Ting. But he didn't expect that it would be Zhou Xun, which made him feel a little heartbroken.

"I didn't do it on purpose this time." Zhou Xun saw that Xiang Nan's face was dark when he saw him, and quickly explained to him, "If you don't believe me, I swear to you. If you really don't want to see me, then I will Get out of the crew."

   "Forget it, I don't want to see you." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "I just want to be ordinary friends with you, and don't get involved in other relationships."

   "Why do you hate me so much?" Zhou Xun asked in puzzlement, "Am I really that annoying?"

   "It's not your problem, it's my problem." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "I'm rather scumbag about relationships. I won't fall in love with any woman, but I know you are serious about relationships.

  Therefore, if you associate with me, sooner or later you will be hurt by me. That's why I don't want to accept you, do you understand? "

   "If you can think that way, it means that you are not a bad person." Hearing what he said, Zhou Xun became more interested in him instead, "Just date me, and I will admit the injury."

   "What are you doing, you think you can change me, you think you will be my last woman?" Xiang Nan shook his head speechlessly and said, "Don't be stupid, it's impossible."

   "Impossible is impossible. As long as I can have a good love, I don't care even if I get hurt." Zhou Xun insisted.

  Xiang Nan let out a long sigh. He finally knew what those girls who were always deceived by scumbags thought.
