Chapter 54
The assistant director opened the door and saw that it was Qi Yu, so he welcomed Qi Yu in.
Yu Hanbing restrained his sad face just now, pulled himself together, and asked Qi Yu, "What's the matter, what's the matter?"
Qi Yu cut straight to the point and directly stated his purpose of coming.
Yu Hanbing was a little shocked when he heard this, "You mean you want to invest 800 million in the crew?"
Qi Yu nodded, "Yes."
Yu Hanbing suddenly felt that the road was turning, and the will was dark and the flowers were bright.
The expressions of Yu Hanbing and the assistant director all relaxed at this moment.
With Qi Yu's 800 million, it can be regarded as temporarily relieving their urgent needs.
And at this moment, Yu Hanbing's mobile phone suddenly rang.
When Qi Yu and the assistant director saw Yu Hanbing answering the phone, the smiles on their faces became more and more obvious.
After Yu Hanbing hung up the phone, the assistant director asked, "What's the matter? Seeing you smiling so happily?"
Yu Hanbing looked excited, "You never know who is calling?"
Assistant director: "Who is it? Could it be that someone plans to invest again?"
Yu Hanbing clapped his palms, "That's right! Someone from the Lu Group called and said they wanted to come to the film crew to discuss investment."
The assistant director laughed happily when he heard it, "This is really double happiness!"
Yu Hanbing nodded, "Funding shouldn't be a problem now, it's just a matter of finding an actor who can replace Liu Linyun's previous role."
The assistant director scratched his head, "It's not easy to find a suitable actor all of a sudden, and it also depends on whether the schedule is suitable."
Qi Yu suddenly thought of Xu Geng, who he had worked with in Manu's crew before.Since Xu Geng went against the agency's wishes last time and helped Qi Yu clarify the truth, he signed a contract with Zhang Guanyu's studio.
Qi Yu: "Maybe I have someone to recommend."
Qi Yu recommended Xu Geng to Yu Hanbing.
Although Yu Hanbing was not familiar with Xu Geng, he felt that the people who could be recommended by Qi Yu should not be far behind, so he planned to invite Xu Geng to audition.
Assistant Director: "If the audition is successful, it will be considered three blessings. Among them, the credit for two joys should be attributed to you, Qi Yu."
The corners of Qi Yu's lips raised slightly, revealing a polite smile.
And Xu Geng was quite surprised when he received the audition invitation.Although he had experience in filming before, they were all little-known roles. This is the first time he has been exposed to a film role with so many roles.
After passing the audition, Xu Geng learned that it was Qi Yu who introduced himself to the director.
Xu Geng went to Qi Yu specifically to thank him for this, but Qi Yu didn't think it was a big deal.
At that time, he just felt that Xu Geng was suitable for this role, so he recommended him to the director.
If Xu Geng himself does not have enough strength to pass the audition, then even if he recommends it, it will be useless.
After nearly half a year of filming, Qi Yu and the others finally finished filming this movie.
And when the movie was edited and ready to be released, Qi Yu and the others found out that the release time of their movie collided with the movie "Cang Hai" that Li Jiran and Liu Linyun made.
The publicity of "Cang Hai" is very strong. Before the film is released, you can see the publicity related to the film almost everywhere.
And Qi Yu's crew had limited publicity capabilities, so they couldn't compare to the rich and powerful director Li Kongtu's crew in terms of publicity and momentum.
After accompanying Qi Yu to run a movie promotional event, Tong Bao and Qi Yu said: "I heard that "The Cang Hai" got far more screenings than "Entering the City" directed by Yu Hanbing. "
Qi Yu: "It's understandable."
Tong Bao said with emotion: "Their publicity is very grand this time, plus the so-called [-] million-dollar production, the top US special effects team in Hollywood, and many big-name actors participating in the performance, so the theaters Both Li Jiran and the audience have high expectations for this movie. It's a pity that Li Jiran was robbed of the leading role in the previous movie "Cang Hai", and I can't see how his acting skills are better than yours."
"Entering the City" starring Qi Yu this time is a literary film, and usually the box office of literary films cannot compare with commercial films.
Hearing Tong Bao's complaint, Qi Yu smiled, and said indifferently: "Forget it, I didn't want to accept that movie, even if it wasn't Li Jiran as the starring role, it would be someone else. I am quite optimistic about "Entering the City". It’s a movie, maybe it will surprise us.”
Under Qi Yu's systematic training, his vision for choosing scripts has long been cultivated.
In his opinion, the script levels of the two works "Cang Hai" and "Entering the City" are quite different. The script quality of "Cang Hai" is far inferior to "Entering the City".In order to make a good movie, in addition to having an excellent production level, sometimes the script is the key to life and death.
This is why Qi Yu dared to invest almost all of his wealth in the movie "Entering the City".
Even if the number of scenes arranged for "Entering the City" may not be comparable to other movies of the same period, but Qi Yu has seen the complete film, and I believe it will not disappoint the audience who went to the cinema.
Soon it was the early stage of the film's release, and the two films "Entering the City" and "The Sea" were released on the same day.
Every time a film is released in the early stage, there will be some film and television up owners on the Internet who will predict and analyze the film.
And because of the continuous promotion of "Cang Hai" from the start of filming to its release, many netizens are also very curious about the box office performance of this movie.
However, "Entering the City" is far less popular than the movie "Cang Hai" on the Internet, and only Qi Yu's fans are still looking forward to it.
