Chapter 32: A Chance Encounter (4/5)

Peng Xiaoran was signed by Li Yiping, and Chen Mengxi didn’t know her very well.

I only know that I have acted in "The East Palace".

It seems that he was the host of iQiyi at the beginning, but later joined Fan Bingbing Studio and also starred in "Win the World"...

That's all.

There is no way, after all, he only has so much love. He has strengths and weaknesses. It is impossible to cover everything.

If you are not doing well yourself, don’t blame the writers who don’t know you!

Peng Xiaoran was also straightforward: "I heard that the boss is here and I have always admired him, so come and have a look..."

Chen Mengxi said modestly: "What's the most beautiful thing about me? It's just ordinary!"

Peng Xiaoran looked serious: "Actually, I am your fan. I have watched "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years".

"That's all two years ago..."

"Many of our classmates are your fans," she emphasized again, as if to increase credibility: "Really!"

"Thank you..."

Chen Mengxi had no time to accompany the little girl Moji, chatted for a few words, got up and left...

He also has to go to Xiangshan to see the later progress of "The Great Wall".

Chen Mengxi left, Peng Xiaoran looked at Li Yiping a little awkwardly, and the latter glanced at her: "Do you want to flirt with her?"

Peng Xiaoran quickly waved his hand: "No, I am really his movie fan!"

"Okay," Li Yiping smiled: "You are not the first to show your affection to him... Don't be nervous. In fact, the group in front of you also have some anxious..."

"Then what?"

"And... of course he rejected it. His level is no longer the level that beauty can be tempted by... Do you understand what I mean?"

Peng Xiaoran's eyes dodged for a moment...

"Your current path is to act in TV series, slowly gain popularity, acting skills, and then wait for opportunities..."

“Waiting for the opportunity?”

"We sign contracts with artists and usually try to promote a drama after a year..."

...

Girls are so proactive nowadays!

You need to analyze carefully and you can also find the reason: the environment is different.

Yang Xiaomi and the others are on the rise because the four Dans and Double Ice are mainly engaged in the film industry, leaving a gap.

It’s quite embarrassing to be with Peng Xiaoran and the others. The roles they can play can also be played by post-85s!

Moreover, compared to newcomers, the film company is more willing to use a familiar face...

As for movies, there are only a few directors who have started new dramas in a year, only those films, only those female characters in one drama, and even one less. Yang Xiaomi can’t get some projects, let alone new people!

So how to get on the line quickly?

Get along with the producer and the senior executives...

When can I be better if I serve you with beauty?

One drama is enough!

It became famous in one shot, and everyone praised it...

In the original time and space, Chen Mengxi was involved in the entertainment industry and knew all the thoughts of these third- and fourth-tier young actors.

He is also happy to act as a stepping stone and do his best...

The problem is, the identity is different!

In the past, he was just a screenwriter and at the lowest end of the industrial chain. Even if something happened, no one would hold on to him. Now, he is the helm of Mengxi Media Group!

Hell...

How many pairs of eyes are staring at him?

The controls above are very good!

Chen Mengxi wants to move upwards, and family happiness and harmony are very important; especially with his status, his reputation cannot be lost.

Feng Xiaogang was punished and accepted it. Why is he not present in "Ice and Snow Changjin Lake", "King Kong River", and "My Hometown and Me"?

Now, he is basically abandoned by the mainstream...

So, I have long since been extinguished by a chaotic thought.

...

Xiangshan, Chen Mengxi met Wu Ershan who had not seen for a long time and was shocked: "I'm going, why have you lost so much?"

Wu Ershan smiled bitterly: "It's so harsh to do it later!"

“…You just keep following?”

"Yes, I won't feel at ease if I don't follow me!"

Chen Mengxi feels a little guilty...

The same director, Wu Ershan followed "Walking with God" throughout the whole process. He was fine, but he left the scene after filming "The Great Wall"...

It’s not said that I just let go, I still take time to see the process every week...

When Wu Ershan saw Chen Mengxi, he quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I've overspent!"

"It's okay, when we were doing our budget, we thought that it might not be enough..."

"Walking with God" is a preliminary budget of 230 million yuan, but it was filmed in detail, exceeding 21 million yuan...

There are three main reasons for overspending: First, there are errors in the area and height data provided by the studio, which leads to insufficient space when the scenes designed strictly according to these sizes when actually entering the studio to build, and there is no time to redesign. The only way is to split a scene into different parts to build, so the workload will be greatly expanded.

The second is to 2D to 3D. In order to ensure the 3D effect of the film, the initial solution determined by the photography guide and visual effect guide is to take as many real 3D as possible. The amount of conversion is enough for 30 minutes. This method is always followed during shooting.

However, at the beginning of post-production, a considerable number of lenses' visual effects are very difficult and require more time, which will also cause overspending of the visual effects budget...

Another point is that the post-production of special effects lenses is also the biggest overspending; the budget was 800-1,000 special effects lenses before, but due to some practical problems encountered in shooting and the adjustment of shooting methods caused by the conciliation schedule, "Walking with God" ultimately exceeded 1,500 special effects lenses, which was far beyond expectations, so the overspending expenses are mainly used in the later stage.

But overspends are not caused by waste or mistakes, but simply because of adjustments to the production methods and increased workload.

Therefore, Chen Mengxi happily approved the additional investment!

“Can the production be completed as scheduled?”

Wu Ershan scratched his head: "It may take a month to push it back..."

Chen Mengxi shook her head: "Half a month, up to twenty days, we will take this movie to Cannes..."

If you add one piece of promotion and distribution, the actual cost will be at least 300 million yuan. It is not difficult for the Chinese, Japanese and Korean markets to recover...

But the cost is so large, is it just that I want to make a profit?

Such a big investment, of course, requires overseas revenue...

"Well, I'm already rushing... By the way, when will "The Great Wall" work?"

"Don't worry about "The Great Wall" and keep an eye on your project..."

"The Great Wall", there are at least ten months of special effects production, the full version is later, 14 months...

Chen Mengxi is not in a hurry. He can see the weekly production report anyway.

“…Then I’ll go back first.”

"Yes," Chen Mengxi watched him leave.

Step into the Mengxi special effects, and came out again after half an hour...

I really have nothing to say to those who are doing special effects. Do you think, "Come on, I'll invite you Mr. Bo Duo from the low-end version of Lin Zhiling to you?"...

I thought about it again and again, I could indeed invite it and release it as an annual welfare...

Mengxi special effects are barely considered IT work!

Walking forward along the shooting spots in Xiangshan, I suddenly saw a familiar figure and called her name: "Tong Yali!"

"…Shen…Person? Why are you here?"
Chapter completed!
