705. All parties are moving
"The Monkey King" will definitely be the largest large-scale production among the movies Wang Yifan has made.
Because there are too many places to spend money on this video, if you want to shoot the effect he wants, you may not be able to make a 1 billion Chinese currency.
Among them, scene construction will undoubtedly occupy a large part of the cost.
Of course, none of these are any problems.
After the news that Wang Yifan was going to make blockbusters, big productions, and films made in conjunction with the island country came out.
A number of domestic celebrity artists, including those top celebrities, have begun to inquire about the news.
After all, Wang Yifan's movies have almost become a guarantee of selling.
The products produced by Wang Yifan must be a high-quality product, which can be said to have been deeply rooted in people's hearts.
When the director reaches Wang Yifan's level, the stars he participated in have become less important, because many movie fans even go directly to Wang Yifan's name.
Wang Yifan's movies usually do not look at the actor's fame in terms of the selection of actors. Although he often uses familiar people or people he has worked with, he often uses some newcomers.
Moreover, the movie Wang Yifan made this time is a big production, no longer the kind of characters with fewer characters, so naturally, it became a cake that countless people wanted to take a bite.
Of course, most of these people are not annoyed by Wang Yifan, but some people still contacted Wang Yifan through various relationships, inquire about information, or help ask for a role.
Of course, those who can talk directly with Wang Yifan are naturally the people close to Wang Yifan.
For example, Zhang Zirong, Chen Xuebing, Chen Shaojun, Yan Lingxuan, and Li Mingjuan.
Now, Chen Shaojun came to the door with a depressed look on his face.
"Damn, do you know how many calls I have answered in the past few days?" Chen Shaojun was a little angry when he saw Wang Yifan's leisurely look.
Many people know Wang Yifan's nature. He especially doesn't like others to interfere in his movies. Therefore, unless they have a very good relationship, such as Li Junsheng and Yan Lingxuan, who have worked with him many times, most people will not directly ask Wang Yifan for roles.
Because it's useless if you want it!
So roundabout strategies became their best strategy.
Zhang Zirong rarely appears in public, and most of Zhang Zirong’s friends in the past were people in the music industry. She is also a relatively cold type, and not many of them can be considered friends.
Otherwise, it is undoubtedly the best way to find Zhang Zirong to talk about the topic.
But it was obvious that the road was not accessible, so Chen Shaojun and others became the second candidate.
"How many calls you answered have to do with me?" Of course Wang Yifan knew what Chen Shaojun was referring to, but Wang Yifan just pretended not to know.
"Teat, those people think you are not easy to talk to, I am not easy to talk to," Chen Shaojun said indignantly.
"Isn't it? If not, you would come here?" Wang Yifan said contemptuously.
"Hehe, that's what, some people really don't want to refuse. They used to owe favors, but they won't pay them back. But, by the way, what's the situation with your new movie? I'm a little bit clear?" Chen Shaojun asked curiously.
Wang Yifan pointed to the script on the table and said, "Here, you can watch it yourself. It doesn't matter if you use some unimportant characters as favors, but don't find me any unreliable guys."
Although there are not many main characters in "The Monkey King", Sun Wukong, his first love, and true love, the judge of the underworld, Erlang Shen, the Dragon Palace Dragon King, etc., there are quite a lot of characters who show their faces or have lines in other aspects.
For example, the monkeys in Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave, such as the heavenly soldiers and generals, shrimp soldiers and crab generals, ghost soldiers and cow heads and horse faces in the underworld, etc.
Interestingly, there will be many "faceless" characters in "The Monkey King", such as monkeys and grandchildren, such as some shrimp soldiers and crab generals, cow heads and horse faces, etc.
But in Wang Yifan's movies, even such a passerby role is not something that ordinary people can get.
There is no way, even if it is a passerby role, as long as you act, it means qualifications. Especially for some new actors, this is definitely a very good qualifications.
I've participated in Wang Yifan's movies.
Because "The Monkey King" is a co-production film, there will definitely be major characters with actors from the island country participating.
However, Wang Yifan has absolute say in this regard.
Toei's requirements are not high, and the two main characters, of course, the role of Monkey King himself, even Tsukamoto Oshima, would not dare to expect. Even if Wang Yifan said this, it would not be possible for him to agree.
In the end, Toei asked for two characters, one of the heroines, and Wang Yifan agreed.
The other one is to choose one from other minor matches.
Toei also has requirements for the remaining characters, those who are in the Passerby A. After all, they have invested a lot of money, so Wang Yifan will naturally not be too harsh on this.
In contrast, other domestic giants have also come to inquire about the news.
There is nothing we can do. Wang Yifan is going to shoot a real big production this time, with an investment of more than one billion Chinese coins, or even more.
Therefore, many film and television giants also want to get a piece of the pie. It’s nothing more. The previous "Edge of Tomorrow" made them taste the sweetness.
Although they are not the main investors, even if they occupy a small proportion of investment, they can make a lot of money.
And this time, it is normal for them to invest at a premium for such a large scale investment?
With such a large-scale production, the screening will definitely require their support at that time, right?
In fact, it is not difficult for many people to find that the investors behind them are tens of dozens and hundreds.
Because it involves all aspects of relationship, even Wang Yifan is the case.
Therefore, we must give up part of the investment share.
After all, large-scale production means that large-scale screenings must be required, and large-scale screenings require support from theaters. Those movies that can obtain more than 50% of screenings are basically given up part of the investment share.
If you have money, everyone will make money. If you eat meat, people will drink soup. Otherwise, even Wang Yifan will not be able to buy it.
Wang Yifan doesn't care about this. Anyway, when he reaches his level, to be honest, how much money he earns is secondary, because he definitely doesn't earn as much as others invest, he will definitely not earn as much as he does.
His pay is already the top in China. For example, this time in "The Monkey King", Wang Yifan's pay is 12. This 1 is not a 10 million yuan, but 100 million yuan!
Is this pay high? Actually, it’s not a big deal. It’s less than 20 million to convert it into a US dollar, but the key is the next 2!
A 20% profit share is not only a simple global box office share, but also a share of the peripheral revenue of all movies.
Moreover, the movie itself also has investments in Wang Yifan's Star Dream Entertainment.
