Chapter 306 Pre-Order Fried Chicken Commercial
After deciding on the film, Lu Ping'an then spent time on the set writing, rewriting, and revising.
Time passed quickly, and at 5 p.m., "Young General Yang" was finally finished.
At the final press conference, Safe Road once again gave high praise to the crew members.
It made all the actors very excited.
According to the rules, Lu Ping'an would only attend half of the closing banquet in the evening.
But as soon as he left the private room after halftime, he met Fan Xiaopang.
"Director Lu, are you leaving?"
Fan Xiaopang trotted up to meet him, followed by two people, who should be assistants or the like.
"Xiao Fan, are you here too?"
Lu Ping'an was indeed a little curious.
"Yes, our crew also eats here." Fan Xiaopang then explained, "I knew you were coming in the afternoon, so I thought of coming over for a toast."
"Oh, I'm done. By the way, what project are you filming now?"
"It's about conferring gods."
That is "Feng Ming Qishan".
Fan Xiaopang then asked: "Director Lu, are you free tonight? I'd like to treat you to a cup of hangover tea."
"You have something going on, right?"
"I still can't hide it from you. I really want to chat with you. I have some questions I want to ask you."
Fan Xiaopang's eyes were filled with hope.
Looking at it this way, combined with the timeline, Lu Pingan knew what situation she was in now.
Counting the time, her contract with Huayi is about to expire. If Huayi talks about renewing the contract, she will refuse.
There are three reasons. First, Fan Xiaopang's previous love affair with Wang Xuebing was violently interfered by the company. Second, the two were competing for beauty. The Wang brothers favored Li Binbin, and Sister Hua had also left, and she couldn't count on her. Of course, the most important thing was The third point is that she will soon have new backers: Mu Xiaoguang and Lao Xu.
After that, she will officially embark on the real uphill journey of life and evolve into "Fan Ye".
Judging from the current situation, Fan Xiaopang probably hasn't met his new backer yet, and his life is just in a brief period of confusion.
Otherwise, we would not “go to the doctor in a hurry”.
After all, Lu Ping'an and Hua Yi have a very good relationship, so it's impossible for her not to know.
So it can be guessed that she is thinking of saving the country.
It was also a coincidence that although Fan Xiaopang was black in Lu Ping'an's list and would not be easily contacted, she happened to still have a bright streak.
It’s not the looks, it’s the project.
His fried chicken restaurant is also planning a large-scale commercial.
"My Love from the Star" is a powerful film.
Whether it is advertising, the significance of blocking South Korea, or the benefits, it is very powerful.
It’s just that the time is not yet ripe for filming.
No time, no suitable platform.
Have to wait a few years.
And this film also involves casting issues.
For example, in terms of the female protagonist, Lu Pingan experimented with many women, and she was the only actress who could finally replace Jun Ji-hyun.
It's dazzling enough, beautiful enough, and has high enough commercial value. Most importantly, it also has the highest system rating.
It's not easy to replace, so let's make an anchor first.
So Lu Pingan nodded: "Okay, let's find a tea room to chat."
Fan Xiaopang was extremely happy after hearing this and immediately greeted him.
Afterwards, the two parties sat down in the tea room.
Her assistant and Lu Ping'an's assistant wisely sat down in the outer compartment without disturbing them.
Fan Xiaopang then complained.
Last year there was a big earthquake in Huayi, and the two presidents did not think highly of Balabala.
Lu Pingan said directly: "You can express your thoughts."
Fan Xiaopang hesitated for a moment, and then directly showed his cards: "I want to come to Xingchen."
Fan Xiaopang talked a lot about various self-promotions. As expected, she was a little confused now and wanted to seek help from Lu Ping An for resources.
But Lu Ping'an's attitude was very firm: "Your noble person is not me."
After a pause, he added: "But I really have a project in hand and I will look for you."
Fan Xiaopang was first filled with regret, and then flew high into the sky.
Nowadays, no one can deny Lu Pingan's status as a director, and it goes without saying what it means to obtain his resources.
So Fan Xiaopang immediately stated his position directly: "Director Lu, if you need me to do anything, just ask."
After saying that, he also changed his position and sat next to Lu Ping'an.
The figure is still good, the perfume is suitable, and the facial features are much more refined than in previous years.
Twenty-five or six is the best time.
It's a pity that the time is wrong. Although Lu Ping'an would not refuse this kind of etiquette, he didn't have time tonight.
So he pressed Fan Xiaopang's extended hand with his backhand, looked at her and said, "Today is not the time."
After saying that, Lu Ping'an didn't care about Fan Xiaopang's expression or what he wanted to say. He just talked about the simple story outline of "Star You".
Fan Xiaopang was also quickly attracted.
As for the outline of the story, it wasn't what she cared about the most.
She only remembered a few keywords: heroine, possibly the first TV series directed by Lu Ping'an, huge investment, and a focus on Congo and South Korea.
Which actress wouldn't be confused after hearing this?
But then Lu Ping'an said: "I won't be filming in the next two years because I don't have time. I'm just talking to you about this because I happened to meet you today, so I wanted to say hello to you in advance. Let's all have some peace of mind and hope we can work together in the future." "
"Director Lu, isn't it too early for you to say this?"
Fan Xiaopang took Lu Pingan's arm and started acting coquettishly.
But Lu Ping An didn't give her more chances: "So you have to be careful in the next few years, maintain your screen image, abide by the law, and most importantly, don't die."
After hearing this, Fan Xiaopang laughed, and then asked: "Then sign me, so that I can move under your nose every day, and I will never die."
"You are a great god, my star temple is small, I can't afford to worship you."
"Director Lu is really a joke, I am just a little actor who can be manipulated by others."
Fan Xiaopang said, and his body came close again.
She still didn't believe that the project that Lu Ping An said would really take two years, just felt that the increase she offered was not big enough.
But Lu Ping An refused again.
"I said, tonight is not the time."
As he said, Lu Ping An stood up, patted Fan Xiaopang on the shoulder and said, "Come to my company to sign the project memorandum later, let's go, I have something to do tonight."
After that, Lu Ping An left directly.
Fan Xiaopang stood up to see him off, but his mood was neither good nor bad, he was in a mess.
I didn't get what I wanted tonight, but I also got some good news. Actually, this good news is not very happy.
I have to wait at least two years.
Lu Pingan, don't make your plan so far ahead, okay!
After returning to the hotel, Lu Pingan finished his phone calls with the women one by one, and finally hung up the phone with Gao Yuanyuan, and Liu Shishi came back.
After opening the door, Liu Shishi flashed into Lu Pingan's arms.
It's only been ten days since I last saw her, but it seemed like a long time for Liu Shishi.
With the help of alcohol, I successfully unlocked new knowledge tonight.
After the end, Liu Shishi, who was lying in Lu Pingan's arms, asked: "Were you with Fan Binbin just now?"
"Yes, we talked about some things. What, are you jealous?"
"Of course not."
"If you really want to be jealous, I can't help it. You can only get used to it, you know, you know how fragrant I am in the eyes of actresses."
"What if you do it in the future?"
"I will tell you, is this okay?"
"Yeah"
Liu Shishi nodded, and then her phone rang.
Then Liu Shishi exclaimed, got up and dressed.
"I forgot to tell you, Liu Xiaojie said today that she wanted to live with me, she just broke up."
Then Liu Shishi kissed Lu Pingan on the mouth, "I'm sorry, I'll accompany you after returning to Beijing, I'm leaving."
Then Liu Shishi ran away.
Lu Pingan blinked blankly, and said in his heart that it was a pity. If he had known, he would not have rejected Fan Xiaopang. He also wanted to know how hot the girl was.
The next day, Lu Pingan returned to Beijing, and then he was revising the script for two consecutive days. Then at noon the next day, he met Han Sanpin at the China Film Academy.
When Han Sanpin read the script of "The Bucket List", his memory seemed to instantly return to the spring of 2001.
"This moment is just like that moment!"
Han Sanpin flipped through the script and sighed, "I remember when you just won the Silver Bear for the short film, we were thinking about how to trick you into adapting the rights, but you took out the feature film script. Haha, I still remember the expressions of Lao Sheng and the others after they read the script."
Han Sanpin recalled the past, which made Lu Ping'an quite emotional.
However, he only had a deep impression of two things. One was Jiang Wen's coercion. At that time, he was afraid that Jiang Wen would take over the magpie's nest.
The other was that he was impressed that several people in China Film spent money without blinking an eye, and his offer was directly accepted, which made him regret for several minutes.
"Five years, time flies."
Han Sanpin then sighed again, and then entered the formal topic.
"If I had time, I would also like to act." He said, holding the script, "When are you going to shoot it?"
"Shoot it soon."
"Why, are you going to shoot it this year? You don't want to shoot it during the Lunar New Year?"
"You guessed it right!"
"Lao Mouzi is also miserable, he has to deal with a grudge like you."
"I only have a problem with Zhang Weipin."
"Okay, okay, whatever you say."
Han Sanpin waved his hand, and then asked, "Who are you going to choose as the actor?"
"Teacher Li Xuejian is confirmed, I'll look for others first."
"Okay, I'll give you his phone number."
After some operations, Han Sanpin asked again: "Is this movie going to compete for an Oscar?"
"Anyway, it's up to the boss whether it can be selected, I can do anything."
From Han Sanpin's attitude, the boss seems to want it very much.
But Lu Ping'an never thought about whether he could get it next year.
As mentioned before, because next year's "Overheard Storm" is a super fierce movie.
Rating 9.2, East and West German theme.
How to play?
Not only next year, but also 2008, that is "The Counterfeiters" about Nazis and Jews, which is also difficult to compete with.
In 2009, it is "Departures".
Regarding this movie, Lu Ping'an has actually made preparations.
For this purpose, he also bought the original work "The Coffin Man's Diary" by Neon, which cost a lot of money.
But the problem is that 2009 will be very magical in China.
In the original time and space, the film selected by China for the Oscars in 2009 was "Dream Building 2008", which was about the Olympics and was very psychedelic.
So for the Best Foreign Language Film, Lu Ping'an has actually made plans.
That is to directly impact 2010, when the competitors are not strong and the honeymoon between China and the United States is still going on, it is the best time.
Of course, there are other films to choose from before that.
Some films are quite impressive, such as being nominated for Best Foreign Language Film, Best Picture and a host of other awards.
Not "Life is Beautiful", but something else.
Lu Pingan also has plans.
But not this year.
This year is too busy.
Let's put it off until next year.
After the matter was finalized, Lu Pingan distributed the tasks after returning to the company. A new project team was quickly established and all parties began to take action.
