Chapter 130 Rental Camera

Huang Bo saw the whining Xu Zheng on the side, and he was a little unhappy at the moment, and said contemptuously: "Xu Zheng, what's your ink? Didn't you mean that you didn't sign with any company?

It doesn’t matter who you sign to. They don’t want us if they sign to Dongsheng Film and Television. Even if they do, we will still be newcomers when we get there. Do you think you can be better than Mao Duoduo? "

The last sentence of these words still touched Xu Zheng. Originally, he did say that he wanted to sign a contract with Dongsheng Film and Television. However, the leading star of Dongsheng Film and Television is Mao Duoduo, a first-line artist who has developed quite well in the TV drama and music circles. .

It is said that Mao Duoduo has the opportunity to develop in film, television and singing. Therefore, Xu Zheng also understood very well at this moment that if he went to Dongsheng, it would indeed be a bad opportunity.

At that moment, Xu Zheng nodded and said, "Okay, since Director Ye thinks highly of me, I will naturally not refuse."

As for Zhao Wei and Fan Binbin, they are still from Zhongjie Company. If they agreed to let these two star in "Crazy Stone", it is already quite good. At least at this time, he cannot do such a thing as poaching. .

After signing Huang Bo, Xu Zheng and Tang Wei, Ye Ming turned around and said: "Sister Weiwei, your scenes are not many. At the beginning, I will focus on arranging some of your scenes to be filmed quickly. I promise It won’t delay the filming of your TV series in Shanghai. This is what I promised Aunt Qiongyao."

The next day, Ye Ming pulled Hong Fei and others to drive a van to the film factory to rent film equipment. Along the way, Huang Bo was still asking: "Director Ye, I want to ask you something."

Ye Ming said with a smile: "Brother Bo, you don't have to be so polite. Just call me Ye Ming. Since when have we become so different? If you have anything, just ask."

Huang Bo said very rudely at this time: "What's wrong, Ye Ming, I just asked, why do you need to rent this camera? We can just buy one ourselves. I see, other people's TV stations, and Some wedding companies and the like have their own cameras. As a film and television company, I can’t be said to be so poor that I don’t even have a camera.”

Because Huang Bo had been singing and singing in bars and dance clubs before, and he really didn’t know much about movies, so he asked a question like this.

Xu Zheng just took a sip of water from the side, trying not to choke. He coughed a few times and patted his chest. Even so, his chest still hurt when he breathed.

Ye Ming said with a smile: "Brother Bo, that's a video camera you're talking about. There are cameras worth hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands. However, those things can't shoot movies. What we want to shoot is a movie, so we need to use a regular camera." Movies shown in movie theaters are all shot with cameras.

The price of a camera ranges from tens of millions to tens of millions. Therefore, we cannot afford to buy it yet, so renting it first is the most serious way. Moreover, renting this thing is not cheap. "

Only then did Xu Zheng recover. He poured on the mineral water and said, "Huang Bo, can I call you big brother? Can you stop being so funny?"

Do you know how much the rental price of a camera is? The current market price is 1,600 a day. This is still the price if you have acquaintances. If you don’t have acquaintances, you can rent it for 2,000, which is not bad. "

Huang Bo was shocked when he heard this number. A camera costs tens of millions, preferably tens of millions. Moreover, the rental price is calculated in days?

This thing, Huang Bo's eyes were a little dull. He looked at the flowing clouds in the sky, gently drifting with the breeze. The blue sky was a rare good weather. It would be rare to see this kind of blue in the capital in the future. The weather.

But Huang Bo had no intention of appreciating the good weather. This was a sad pain, and a sad psychology emerged spontaneously.

Huang Bo said to himself: "One or two thousand a day. Even for a second-tier star, the salary for one episode is basically the same amount. It is incredible that the rental price of a camera is so high." ah."

Ye Ming patted Huang Bo on the shoulder and said: "Brother Bo, you have to recognize the reality. Movie making is really a money-burning industry. If you love someone, let him make a movie. If you hate someone, let him make a movie." People, let’s make movies. Movie making is an industry that wanders between heaven and hell.

This line of work is not as glamorous as it seems on the surface. "

After saying this, Ye Ming called Han Shanping and said with a smile: "Third Master, I'm Ye Ming, yes, yes, yes, the shooting is over, I plan to go to the film studio to rent equipment, it's done, you are your boss , I can do this little thing myself. Thank you, Third Master, I will treat you to roast duck later."

Until this moment, Ye Ming breathed a long sigh of relief. Hong Fei said while driving: "Ye Ming, when it comes to price, you have to be prepared. Your little support fund is enough to start. How many days do you plan to rent? If you don't calculate it well, you will be very passive. .”

Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "Brother Fei, don't worry. When I went to Hong Kong City a few days ago, Mr. Jin Yong gave me my manuscript fee, which was 600,000. I transferred 100,000 to the company, and the rest That’s almost enough to hold on.

Moreover, Mr. San said that he would give me a preferential price. Free is impossible, and the half rental fee is also a support for me. "

Han Shanping said it was free, but Ye Ming would not take such a thing seriously. You can't push the envelope, right? Han Shanping didn't run the film studio alone, and he also had to explain to the film studio.

Therefore, Ye Ming would not take it as the same thing at all when talking about free.

At this time, it was Xu Zheng's turn to be dumbfounded. Huang Bo, Huang Bo didn't know what the third master meant, so naturally he didn't take it seriously.

If it's about Han Shanping, then he definitely knows, but when it comes to Third Master, Huang Bo really doesn't know. But Xu Zheng, who does not represent a professional background, does not know what Sanye means.

At this time, Xu Zheng stammered: "Ye Ming, the third master you are talking about cannot be Han Shanping." The one who can keep his word in the film studio is not who the third master Han Shanping is. Ye Ming is actually related to the third master?

Sure enough, Ye Ming nodded and said, "That's right. The Third Master helped me with my support fund some time ago. And when they heard about my difficulties, they said they would support my work and rent equipment for free. How could I take it seriously?" Ah, half price is already a very good result."

At this time, Xu Zheng truly realized that it seemed that signing a contract with Brilliant Film and Television might be a very good result. No matter how awesome Dongsheng Film and Television is, can it have anything to do with Mr. Han?

In the film industry of our country, relationships are the most important thing.

With the support of a big boss like Han Shanping, who dares to interfere with it? When I arrived at the film studio, I found the relevant personnel. At this time, Han Sanping had already said hello. The person in charge of the rental business was a small man who looked like a big monkey. He looked like the opposite of a very wretched person. role person.

After being introduced by the staff, Ye Ming knew that this person was called Liu Yong and he was the leasing section chief. Liu Yong said with some arrogance: "You just want to rent equipment. Follow Liang Zi to go through some procedures first, and then come back."

This Section Chief Liu Yong is a regular employee of the film studio. He has an iron rice bowl. He looks down on those outside film companies. To Section Chief Liu, these people are actually just like the grass-roots team.

The Huayi Brothers are both good and bad. When renting a camera, you still need to clear the relationship with him. Otherwise, some things will not be done so easily.

Of course, when Ye Ming came, Hong Fei also took the initiative to send a red envelope.

Liu Yong squeezed the red envelope and put it in his pocket very skillfully, but his expression did not change much. At this time, he also heard someone say hello and wanted to take care of Ye Ming.

The little red envelope Ye Ming gave him could tell how much it was just by pinching it. It was too little. What could he do with Han Sanping's greetings? The county magistrate is not as good as taking charge now. I, Liu Yong, am in charge of this business. You are the ones in charge. You just have to curry favor with me.

Yesterday, someone gave him a big red envelope, saying that he should take care of Ye Ming within the scope of his rights. With that red envelope, he could pay for his family's trip to Hawaii this summer.

Therefore, Liu Yong quickly agreed to stumble Ye Ming. At this time, Hong Fei came out and said, "Ye Ming, something is wrong. It seems that someone is targeting you."

Ye Ming said with a smile: "Brother Fei, you are an old Jianghu, I can't hide this from you, I think so too, let alone let us go according to the rules, there is no one who should pay tribute, even if it is Mr. Han said hello, those people can't deal with us like this.

However, I don’t know who is behind this. Let’s take it step by step. Let’s rent out the machine first. "

Ye Ming could also feel the unfriendly mood of Section Chief Liu Yong, but he was not here to make friends, but to rent cameras. Therefore, he didn't care at all about Liu Yong's attitude. The camera was rented, so there was no problem.

However, it was precisely because of Liu Yong's attitude that Ye Ming suddenly became nervous.

It seems that this rental is not going smoothly.

When going through the formalities, Ye Ming originally wanted to rent two Alais for FX435, but the staff didn’t even look at Ye Ming. He lowered his head and didn’t know what he was looking at, and said very simply: “Sorry, no. "

Suddenly, Hong Fei's anger rose, and the person who was in trouble was not that embarrassed. Just when Hong Fei was about to get angry, Ye Ming stopped him and said, "Brother Fei, why bother? There's no way you can tell me what to do." (To be continued)
