Chapter 702 Really Picking Soap!

It was almost eleven o'clock at night, even in the bustling capital city, there were not many pedestrians and vehicles on the road.

However, it is much more lively than second- and third-tier cities, and on Valentine's Day, the streets are not empty.

A convoy of several Mercedes-Benz S-classes and a Rolls-Royce drove along the Sanyuan Bridge towards the Capital Airport.

In the car, Tang An looked at the people on the side of the road, alone or in pairs, who came out to play,
Ordinary people can come out to hang out at night, but he is still busy with work at this time, and has just finished a premiere.

Shaking his head, he didn't express his feelings, he might as well be an ordinary person or something.

After making a fortune, many people have said in public that they are not living happily and that they are not as good as ordinary people.

Part of it was pretending to be coercive, and part of it was due to various things at that time, and the pressure was high, so I had this idea.

If they were indulging in sensuality and pleasure, would they still want to be ordinary people?

Tang An is fine now, and he is not too busy. Compared with Wang Jianlin, who gets up at five o'clock every day and takes three flights, it is much easier.

But it's not easy. Since the president of the United States took office, his daily schedule is to eat, sleep, and tear up the B Sirah ceremony.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Tang An took out the script of "Operation Red Sea" and flipped through it.

Although the script has been formed, I still read it occasionally to see if there is any inspiration and what can be changed.

The big frame will basically not change, and some details will be marked out if there are new ideas, so as to save you from forgetting when shooting, and you don’t have to change the script.

Next to him, Yang Mi leaned over, put his hands on Tang An's shoulders, rested his chin on them, and glanced at the script.

"Brother An, your film is obviously a military film, why did you choose a few people who don't look like soldiers?"

Tang An turned his head and kissed her rosy lips, and said with a smile, "Which one doesn't look like a soldier?"

"Except for Zhang Yi, they don't look like each other."

Without outsiders, Yang Mi has no scruples and talks casually.

"Oh, then you should talk about it."

Tang An closed the script, looked at her with interest, and wanted to hear what she had to say.

"Although Du Chan has a tough appearance, he is very suitable to play that kind of sunny boy, or he is a character with a sunny surface and a dark heart, and he doesn't have that kind of military temperament."

"That Zhang Ruoyun is just as good as his father's "New Snow Leopard". I think he is suitable for idol dramas, and Brother Chao is a little fellow who doesn't look like a soldier at all."

What Yang Mi said one by one was sound, as if there was still a little bit of truth in it.

Tang An shook his head, "So I asked them to train for half a year. Those who have never served in the army have a military temperament, and the ones who perform are at most tough guys, which are much worse than military temperament."

In fact, what Yang Mi said is correct. Du Chan and Zhang Ruoyun have no military temperament. Du Chan is best at playing roles that are sunny on the surface but dark on the inside. The warlord here is not like a soldier.

But after practicing for half a year, I also have to practice while filming, so it's almost done.

Tang An didn't talk to Yang Mi about the film, closed the script, and told her about her upcoming projects.

It is too difficult for an actress to join a good movie, especially the real heroine, not the supporting role with the title of heroine.

After all, movies are not TV dramas. The audience of commercial movies determines that there will not be many movies with leading heroines, and there are not many movies with male and female protagonists side by side.

Even for Zou Xun, Zhang Ziyi and the others, there is not a single film with the male lead in the same role every year. Except for romance movies, most of the time the role is the male lead's foil.

Yang Mi was also a little distressed, "Didn't Brother Xiaoming want to remake the movie version of "Why Shengxiaomo", I wanted it, but I didn't expect to be cut off by him, and I asked Yang Ying to act with him, and I couldn't get the heroine .”

On the day of the Spring Festival Gala, Wang Xiaoming asked for the remake rights of "Why Shengxiaomo", and exchanged 50% of the dry shares for the remake rights.

Don't pay a penny, get 50% of the income.

Although it is definitely a bad movie, there is a high probability that my company will also be a bad movie.

Adapted movies, especially romance movies, are basically not successful.

There are very few big directors in this genre, and there are some directors who are contemptuous. Otherwise, why would Feng Xiaogang want to make a blockbuster costume film.

Famous directors seldom touch this type, let alone the TV drama version of Zhuyu, and famous directors will not accept it.

It is also difficult for an unknown director to count on talent. If the company makes the film itself, it means finding an unknown film director or TV drama director.

It is impossible for Tang An to stare at such a project. Without that spare time, the company has produced a lot of bad movies in the past few years. It is impossible for such a large company to have no bad movies.

There are many more bad movies in Hollywood than in China, which does not prevent North America and Hollywood from being the largest movie market and movie base in the world.

There are not many bad movies in China, the key is not to be all bad movies. There are a few good movies released every month.

If it's all bad movies, and there are very few good movies, if you don't have one in two or three months, then it's over.

The copyright expired after two years in my hands, and I couldn't find a capable director to shoot, so Wang Xiaoming gave 50% of the dry stock in exchange for the right to remake.

Moreover, Wang Xiaoming also said that he planned to play the male and female lead together with Yang Ying, and they would get married just after filming, as a promise of love.

When it comes to this, Tang An is also the beauty of an adult.

Although Wang Xiaoming gave up half of the profits, he was definitely not losing money. A modern romantic drama, not counting their salary, cost a sky-high 2000 million. With the fame of this film, he could make money even with his eyes closed.

Tang An smiled, "It doesn't matter if you don't want this film, but Wang Xiaoming told me for a long time that day that he wanted to set up a husband and wife party to commemorate their marriage, and I will fulfill the couple, or else I won't give it to him."

"I don't care either. Brother Xiaoming's reputation is not good now. It's probably not good to partner with him." Yang Mi shook his head, and didn't care too much. Being a boss is good. You don't have to be filming all year round. If you want to rest, you can rest if you want to play. just play.

"But I'm also bored. Brother Anan, how about I go to some program as a mentor or a guest?" Yang Mi thought for a while and said again.

Tang An shook his head, "Why do you think it's a show, which show do you want to go to?"

"How about The Masked Singer?"

"cough cough"

Yang Mi's brazen words almost made Tang An lose his temper.

Tang An's reaction made Yang Mi give him an annoyed look.

"Okay, I'm just kidding, how about "I Am an Actor"."

Fortunately, Tang An was already mentally prepared and did not get choked again.

After taking a sip of water and breathing, Tang An said speechlessly, "You really don't have any self-knowledge. I'll let you go up tomorrow. You're sure to make headlines. At least 2000 million public relations fees will be thrown into it."

Yang Mi was careless and didn't feel embarrassed at all, "Didn't Brother Ye go, why can't I go, I think it's fun to teach people to perform, just like the teacher taught us in school."

Tang An said, "Stop thinking about it, unless you don't want to do this show after this season, or you can go to Mr. Li and see if she lets you go. How about you go to "The King of Masked Singer" and sing a few songs?" Song, it is estimated that it can increase the ratings."

"I'm not going." Yang Mi said angrily.

"Let you go and not go, how about this, let me give you an idea, make a restaurant management show, these days the audience can't resist the temptation of delicious food through the screen, let alone a group of celebrities cooking."

Tang An then told her about the later variety show "Chinese Restaurant", but he didn't watch two episodes, so he couldn't remember clearly.

Yang Mi's eyes lit up, and he said quickly, "Is it just like "Longing for Life"?"

"There are some similarities. Anyway, this is probably the idea. You should cooperate with Tudou Films, and let them do the professional things."

As soon as Tang An opened his mouth, he sent a popular variety show to Yang Mi. He didn't do anything, just invested some money in to take up the shares and waited for the money to be collected.

Yang Mi didn't doubt the feasibility of this program either. Several popular programs in Tudou Films Variety Show Department came from Tang An's ideas.

But Yang Mi was excited for a while, and then said, "Then what am I doing, what role am I in charge of?"

Tang An said with a smile, "It's very simple. You can do whatever you want. If you want to be a chef, you can go to New Oriental to study for half a year. Otherwise, you can serve dishes or clean tables."

Yang Mi pouted, "I don't want it, I just want to be the boss."

"Whatever you want, just don't mess with me."

Yang Mi then pulled Tang An to talk about some program ideas. Now, film and television dramas are no big deal to her. The company also invests in several films a year, mainly for fun.

But Tang An didn't remember much, and didn't say much, "Okay, you can study this program slowly, I just have an idea."

Yang Mi didn't ask any more questions, and instead asked about another matter.

"Brother An, what happened to that duplicitous politician you told Brother Chao at the banquet just now?"

Tang An said, "As for the little girl's father, the film and television company of Baodao invited Liu Xiaoqing to make a movie, but because of identity issues, the Baodao News Office did not allow it, so the crew came to the mainland to shoot the movie. The hero of that movie was the little girl. dad.

During that period, many things happened. There were reports of Liu Xiaoqing’s defection everywhere in the mainland. After returning to the mainland to film, his father also became a half-flag of the united front. The higher authorities needed such a person to promote and registered with them. "

"oh, I see."

Yang Mi understood, and didn't say anything anymore, who knows what the higher-ups think about politics.

The road was unimpeded, and the team quickly arrived at Ligong, got off the car and went home to wash and sleep.

But Yang Mi still had a packing bag in his hand, Tang An asked casually, "What is this?"

"Valentine's Day gift bag."

Yang Mi opened the package, lifted it up and showed it to Tang An.

Tang An shook his head, "Sure enough, I'm still being taken advantage of. Pack a few things together and pack them together. If they sell at a high price, there will be no shortage of people to buy them."

With this Valentine's Day gift package, the sales of Valentine's Day tomorrow will reach nearly 2000 million RMB.

Although it can only sell well on Valentine's Day, this number is already very good for derivatives of domestic movies.

As for profit, just think about the Bing Kuo Luo sold in theaters.

2.5 liters of Coke cost seven or eight yuan, change the cup and add some ice cubes, 10 yuan a cup, at least four or five cups out of a large bottle.

With sales of 2000 million, there is also a profit of 1000 million for conscience.

But Tang An then shook his head, derivative products were not easy to do, Xingmei went bankrupt later because of selling mobile phones, digital products, and cosmetics in movie theaters.

Go home, take a shower, and sleep.

But Yang Mi must take a shower and try the soap flower in the Valentine's Day gift bag.

"Forget it, let me put soap on your back."

Tang An took the soap petals from Yang Mi and daubed them on her smooth back.

Suddenly, the hand slipped and fell to the ground and slid forward.

Seeing this, Yang Mi bent down to pick up the soap flower, "Brother An, why can't you hold this?"

What the hell is picking up soap?
Tang An looked at the perfect shape formed by bending over in front of him. His snow-white skin was slightly flushed after being drenched in hot water, which was even more alluring.

The weather was dry in winter, Tang An couldn't help but licked his lips, and took a step forward.
