The program that Fu Zhen was interviewed before finally appeared in front of the audience two weeks later. Some netizens stood in front of the screen, wanting to hear what amazing words Fu Zhen could say, but they were disappointed in the end. Pretentious words like I don't value the box office are really rare.
However, netizens also learned through the program that there are more easter eggs than they found. However, "White Castle" has already been released, and it is unrealistic for them to go to the cinema to find easter eggs, and netizens think that They have tried their best, and the other shots may only be understood by Jiang Hengshu himself.
At the end of the show, netizens learned that Fu Zhen is going to make a horror movie next.
Netizens were very puzzled, why Fu Zhen couldn't think about making a horror movie.
First of all, the audience of horror movies is not as wide as that of other movies. Even though there are some young people who like to find excitement, there are still not many people who are willing to go to theaters for horror movies. Another thing is that although there have been no horror movies in recent years Restriction, but it directly prohibits children under the age of 14 from going to the theater to watch horror movies, so when buying horror movie tickets, buyers must show their ID cards, many young people who don’t like to troublesome people will choose other Movie.
Therefore, most netizens are not optimistic about the box office of this movie. They are willing to believe that Fu Zhen’s level. After all, he has already used two movies to prove himself. Bad movie, I don't look like the villain in it.
But for the box office, there is really no way to force it. The audience of horror movies is only a few people. The box office is not very flexible. It is within that range. Also not too high.
But Fu Zhen has already said that people don't value the box office. Maybe this horror film was made purely for their dreams, so they don't have to worry about salty carrots.
Netizens don't worry about Fu Zhen's box office, but Wei Dechi, who took Fu Zhen's two million, has to worry about it.
"How much do you plan to invest in this movie?" Wei Dechi asked Fu Zhen on the phone while writing the outline of the script.
Fu Zhen thought for a while and replied, "Ten million, no more."
Wei Dechi might have been frightened by this answer, and he asked Fu Zhen after a while: "This will definitely not include my salary, right?"
"Of course it includes," Fu Zhen said with a smile, "You alone took one-fifth of my investment, so your script must be well written."
Wei Dechi sighed, put down the pen in his hand, and said, "Why do I feel like I'm on a pirate ship?"
Seeing that Fu Zhen agreed to his request, he thought it was a work with a large investment and a large production, but now he learned that the investment of the crew was only 8 million, and after deducting the actors' salaries, how much was left? Wei Dechi breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that some of the scenes he wrote had to be rethought.
Fu Zhen leaned on Jiang Hengshu's shoulder and said to Wei Dechi on the phone: "Although I don't have any special expectations for the box office, I don't like losing money either."
"Yes, Director Fu, do you still have to support your family?"
Fu Zhen did not deny it, and even climbed up the pole: "Mrs. Fu is still waiting for me to buy him pearls, so, Mr. Wei, you have to work hard."
Wei Dechi is very confident in Fu Zhen's conception and the script he wrote, otherwise it would be impossible to ask Fu Zhen for two million in one breath, but he also has a weakness: "Let me tell you first, the emotional drama I still can't write."
Fu Zhen hummed: "It's okay, I can ask Teacher Luo Pingping to help me polish the emotional drama."
After hearing this, Wei Dechi finally felt relieved. He said to Fu Zhen: "Tell me what you can do with an investment of 10 million yuan. Now, hiring a better actor will cost several million yuan."
"Please don't ask for such an expensive one."
Fu Zhen has his own considerations when it comes to actors. Many well-known actors feel that making horror films is a bit out of character. In addition, he has not prepared a lot of investment, so he does not plan to invite them.
But shooting a horror film is also a test of acting skills. It’s not enough to stare and open your mouth to scream, so you need to carefully consider the casting.
Fu Zhen, the leading actor of the movie, had already decided on it. He chose Zhou Wenliang. This was after "White Castle" was finished, he discussed it with Zhou Wenliang. Fu Zhen has already found someone to contact the old drama bone in the movie.
After hanging up the phone, Fu Zhen went to the bathroom, and when he came back, he saw Jiang Hengshu sitting on the bed holding a tablet, watching "White Castle". Fu Zhen leaned over and put his head on Jiang Hengshu's shoulder, Ask him: "Why did you read it again?"
"Looking for the easter egg you gave me."
"Have you found it all?"
"How many places are there?" Jiang Hengshu pressed the pause button on the screen.
Fu Zhen recalled it for a while, and said to Jiang Hengshu, "Thirteen places."
Jiang Hengshu stopped talking, Fu Zhen moved his head away from Jiang Hengshu's shoulder, sat up straight, and asked Jiang Hengshu, "How many places have you found now?"
"... Nine locations." Netizens helped him find seven of them.
Fu Zhen patted Jiang Hengshu on the shoulder and encouraged him, saying, "Keep going."
Jiang Hengshu chuckled, grabbed Fu Zhen, pulled him into his arms, and said to him: "I can almost memorize all the lines in the movie from beginning to end now, and I can't take it anymore. .”
Fu Zhen raised his eyes and stared at him for a while, then asked him, "Want to know?"
Jiang Hengshu nodded, and rubbed Fu Zhen's shoulders with both hands. Fu Zhen took a breath of enjoyment.
However, when Jiang Hengshu stopped, he patted the bed twice with his left hand, and said to Jiang Hengshu seriously, "Do you know what your current behavior is called?"
"What?" Jiang Hengshu asked.
Fu Zhenyi said seriously: "Bribe the examiner!"
Jiang Hengshu grabbed the examiner's cool little hand and pressed it to his chest: "Then can the examiner give you the answer?"
"That depends on how you want to bribe."
Jiang Hengshu was silent for a while, as if he was thinking about what to do next. After a while, he raised his eyes and asked Fu Zhen, "Is seduction okay?"
Fu Zhen coughed lightly: "Then you will know if it will work if you are seduced."
…
After the end, Jiang Hengshu sat on the bed and was massaged by Fu Zhen on his calf. He asked Fu Zhen, "Teacher, are you satisfied with the service?"
Fu Zhen thought for a while, and gave Jiang Hengshu a four-word evaluation: "Not satisfactory."
"Teacher, I have other ideas for solving the problem, why don't we try again?"
Fu Zhen: "..."
Seeing that Fu Zhen was speechless, Jiang Hengshu laughed, reached out and tapped Fu Zhen's forehead lightly, Fu Zhen grinned, pulled the blanket on his body, and asked Jiang Hengshu : "Where are the two easter eggs you found?"
Jiang Hengshu said that the two places he found were the castle and the music box, which was exactly as Fu Zhen guessed. These two places are difficult for netizens to find and cannot be imagined, but for Jiang Hengshu, they are white Sent points.
He yawned, looked at Jiang Hengshu tenderly, and announced the answer to this opportunistic candidate: "The remaining four places are about 20 minutes into the movie. Wu Zhe went to the gallery..."
Fu Zhen and Jiang Hengshu clicked out the remaining Easter eggs one by one. Jiang Hengshu re-watched the half-played movie just now, and all thirteen Easter eggs were collected.
…
Zeng Xingke's agent managed to get an audition invitation from Fu Zhen and sent it to Zeng Xingke, but Zeng Xingke was very dissatisfied with his agent's self-assertion behavior. Some complained and said: "How do you pick up this kind of thing for me?"
Who is he, Zeng Xingke, a popular little fresh meat with tens of millions of fans, the kind who can be trending by posting a selfie casually, how can he be a supporting actor
His agent patiently persuaded: "I took this movie for your own good."
Most of Zeng Xingke's previous roles were in youth school dramas and domineering president dramas. His acting skills are not good, comparable to Gao Tian in the past. Passers-by despise his greasy characters. Only fans hold him all day long. A few old pictures blow my brother's face.
However, Zeng Xingke didn't understand the manager's good intentions at all: "It's for my own good, for my own good, let me make a horror movie, and I'm still a supporting actor, I won't do it."
"Why are you so brainless? What happened to the horror movie? What happened to the male number two? This was filmed by Fu Zhen," the agent also became angry, "Look at how many movie invitations Gao Tian has accepted now. Look at yourself, what do netizens say about you? Let me tell you, you must accept this movie!"
Zeng Xingke frowned, pursed his mouth tightly, and was still a little unhappy, he didn't like to be a match for others.
The agent slapped the table heavily: "If you don't want to act, the director doesn't necessarily want to use you!"
"Why doesn't he want to use me?" Zeng Xingke asked, poking his neck out. The traffic he owns now, just the tickets bought by fans can make back all the capital of Fu Zhen's horror movie.
"Then why don't you try it?" The manager directly used the aggressive method on Zeng Xingke.
Zeng Xingke was still too young, so he fell for the trick: "Try it!"
There were only three roles left to audition for "Escape". The heroine Fu Zhen directly chose Jiang Ying, who was recommended to him by Zhou Wenliang.
Knowing that Fu Zhen was going to make a new movie, Chen Meng also called him, expressing that she wanted a role. During this time, many directors sent her invitations, but she didn't accept any of them.
"I don't have a suitable role for you here, and..." Fu Zhen paused, and said to Chen Meng, "You are going to take the college entrance examination in a few months, and you should focus on studying during this time."
Chen Meng was a little disappointed, but still listened to Fu Zhen's words and concentrated on preparing for the college entrance examination.
