After finishing his work in the afternoon and some entertainment in the evening, Ren Jingxi came to the mansion in maoerhhutong. It was close to 10 o'clock in the middle of the night.
In the underground parking lot of the mansion, I learned that Mo Wuling was already at the pool. Ren Jingxi went directly to the pool, changed his bathrobe and entered the pool. At a glance, I saw Mo Wuling soaking comfortably in the hot spring pool.
Music is still floating in the pool.
Ren Jingxi didn't notice at first, because it happened to be a very strange singing. I don't know which language it is. It's long and remote. It didn't arouse interest until the lyrics.
*……
*I don't know how long I slept in the dark.
*I don't know how hard it will be to open my eyes.
*I came from afar, and you happened to be there.
*Obsessed with wandering around the world, I am wild for her.
*……
Ren Jingxi didn't come back until the waitress nearby reminded Mo Wuling, who had just been sleeping, opened his eyes and got up to greet her.
He went to the pool, took off his bathrobe and handed it to the waitress next to him. Next to Mo Wuling, he stepped into the pool and felt the instant relaxation brought by the special warmth. Ren Jingxi slowly relaxed his breath, finally remembered it and asked, "what song?"
Mo Wuling said, "Jinshu is making the documentary about climbing Everest. This is the theme song."
Ren Jingxi gave a cry, and then instantly responded, "did he write it?"
Mo Wuling nodded calmly: "yes."
Ren Jingxi was acutely aware of the girl's guilt around him. He reached out and grabbed it. In Mo Wuling's angry eyes, he said, "you are really hopeless."
Somehow, Mo Wuling didn't refute this time, but leaned back on the soft pillow by the pool, moved his mouth and hummed silently with the repeated music.
A really good song.
Ren Jingxi didn't kill the scenery any more. He also lay down relaxed and tasted the charm of the lyrics together.
I also remembered Tagore's poem, which they both liked very much in college.
I can't go back to my youth.
Then neither of them spoke much. After taking a bath, they returned to the wing room where Mo Wuling often lived in the ground West courtyard. Ren Jingxi asked, "how about the house in the afternoon?"
Ren Jingxi said that he had turned to the small study connected with the bedroom next to the living room, sat directly in front of the desk, put down his satchel and opened the computer skillfully.
Mo Wuling took out the juice from the refrigerator in the corner, poured a cup for each of them, sent a cup to Ren Jingxi's hand, retreated to the sofa next to him and sat down, saying, "after looking at several communities, I feel like I'm in the countryside. Even the facilities in the community selling existing houses are not perfect. When I go to the higher floor, I see the surrounding wilderness."
Ren Jingxi took out a thick stack of documents and a USB flash disk from his satchel, inserted it into the computer, and smelled it: "so, I'm not satisfied?"
"I'm not satisfied," Mo Wuling said firmly, "but I'm still going to buy it."
Ren Jingxi said with a smile, "what logic is this?"
Mo Wuling said, "it's cheap. The existing residential area I saw is only 4500 square meters per square meter. Moreover, I heard that I hope to buy more sets. They also said that they can give me a good discount, which is estimated to be 10% off."
Although Ren Jingxi has made a lot of money in recent years, he still doesn't eat human fireworks. He smelled the speech and said, "4500 is still cheap. In my hometown, I don't necessarily earn so much for a year?"
Mo Wuling sipped the juice and retorted, "if you say Africa, it may not make so much in ten years."
Ren Jingxi let go of the documents in front of him and began to knock on the keyboard. "I remember the house in the capital shouldn't be so expensive. It seems that, uh, a few years ago, there were 2500 villas with a flat."
"When did you say that? Now the villas in the suburbs are about 10000 per square meter, and the better villas are more than 10000. The unit price of this kind of apartment I saw in the afternoon in the third ring road is between 6000 and 8000."
Ren Jingxi continued to focus on his work and said, "in this case, buying a house is really a good investment."
Mo Wuling thought for a moment and said, "I saw a new building just opened today. The top view is very good. I can see the summer palace and Peking University campus. I was thinking, why don't we buy the top floors at one time? Well, in this case, you have to lend me some money. I'll give it back to you when the bonus of" to youth "comes down."
Ren Jingxi finally got a little surprised. He turned his head and took a look at her. He turned his attention again and said with a smile, "are you so desperate?"
"You don't know," Mo Wuling paused and said, "he... Bought several buildings at a time in a community over Madian Bridge. Besides, you should have an impression of the world center project in Wudaokou?"
"No, I can't pay attention to these," Ren Jingxi shook his head and asked, "how do you know?"
Mo Wuling shrunk his neck slightly and said, "I can't buy it blindly. There are two real estate companies in the mansion. Moreover, on the capital side, in fact, there are many real estate companies in which he takes shares. Of course, you can ask. Anyway, he has always been building houses everywhere in China. I think it's more reliable to follow up like this than just talking about it."
Ren Jingxi made a sound, thought about it, and asked, "how many floors and sets did you just say about that building?"
"The 11 storey apartment has a total of... Different floors and different house types, but the whole building is about 60 houses," Mo Wuling said, reflecting: "you don't want to... Huh?"
Ren Jingxi smiled and nodded: "since he buys one by one, of course we can. Moreover, if we buy several floors according to what you just said, it's so boring that we just eat the whole building."
Mo Wuling immediately began to calculate.
If you remember well, the total area of each suite on each floor is about 600 square meters. On the 11th floor, it is 6600 square meters. Temporarily, it is calculated according to the 10% discount of about 4000 yuan, which requires... About 26 million yuan. In addition, the down payment ratio is 30%, and a building needs to use at least about 8 million funds.
8 million, it seems... Not much.
After all, a few days ago, Wu Shanlin in the brocade Book hinted that only this one "to youth", she would hope to get a million level red envelope.
Besides, I'm still with my best friend next to me.
Ren Jingxi at the computer desk waited for a moment and asked, "did you calculate it?"
Mo Wuling nodded: "the down payment needs about 8 million yuan. According to one to five, well, it's still too much. The down payment is not a problem. The key is follow-up. It's bad if I don't go up. It's better for me to calculate 1 million yuan, and the remaining 7 million belongs to you, and the follow-up proportion is the same."
30% down payment, 1 million first, and then, if it can be paid off in advance, about two or three million is enough.
Two or three million seems like a lot, but Mo Wuling has been used to the world in recent years. He doesn't think he won't make money next. However, if you buy enough this time, you may not be able to sell again for a long time. In fact, she recently heard that she could buy mortgages repeatedly, but she felt she couldn't do it.
Ren Jingxi had no problem, nodded and said, "no problem. By the way, then, we bought so many houses that we can't put them there. If the houses don't live for a long time, people are easy to decay?"
Mo Wuling thought again that he mentioned the title of a "charter woman" and said, "of course, it's rented out. Although it's close to the Fourth Ring Road, it's next to ZhongGuanCun. Because of the science and technology industry, it has developed rapidly in recent years, and there is also a lot of demand for renting."
Ren Jingxi did not object: "in this case, we'd better set up a small team to take care of it."
Mo Wuling didn't think so much at first. After all, he only planned to buy two or three houses first. However, when Ren Jingxi said this, he would have no problem if he wanted to buy a whole building.
Promise, seeing that Ren Jingxi was still beating fast, Mo Wuling finally got up and came over: "there's no need to be such a workaholic. It's all now... Well, this is an e-mail?"
Ren Jingxi nodded and smiled and added, "do you want to add a greeting from Miss Mo Wuling to someone's email?"
"No," Mo Wuling immediately refused, and glanced at the content of the e-mail: "this is... You are discussing making movies recently?"
"Everyone couldn't make up their minds, so they just asked him to help," Ren Jingxi explained, and then said, "by the way, the passage of time is almost finished. Do you have any new ideas? This time, just give me a discount?"
"No," said Mo Wuling, lying on Ren Jingxi's shoulder and somewhat embarrassed, "you know, the previous ones were actually put forward by him first."
"That's just an idea. You can write the script and sell it. This is your real ability, so don't be modest. Think of the next idea quickly. If it's great, I don't have to pay back the money I lent you later. It should be used to buy the script."
"Really not, and..." Mo Wuling indicated to Ren Jingxi the content of the document he was writing: "if you want to make a blockbuster, you must not find me. To youth is my main pen. On the side of Chu Han, only a small part of the script I originally wrote was adopted. They all said I was too literary and artistic. Anyway, I was definitely not suitable."
Ren Jingxi felt the loss of his best friend behind him and advised: "literature and art have a literary and artistic market. Wouldn't it be very successful if" to youth "and" time passing by "are also good. Moreover, what kind of literature and art are you? You probably haven't seen a few films of real literature and art. Anyway, I think you are quite suitable for the commercial market."
Mo Wuling has been quietly charging himself. Of course, it's not what Ren Jingxi said. He hasn't seen a few literary and artistic films. After listening to what she said, I thought it over and found that it seemed so.
In other countries, the older generation of filmmakers in China are basically a strong literary and artistic model, including Mr. Zhang. Although the early films are more local, in fact, there is the strength of literary and artistic youth behind the local, and Mr. Zhang happens to be the kind of successful transformation in recent years. Even so, hero The literary and artistic style of is also known at a glance. If we can do a good job in the "Chu Han" trilogy, it will be a complete transformation success.
In contrast, the films Mo Wuling has participated in so far are generally more popular and grounded.
The two of them chatted with each other. After Ren Jingxi wrote the email, he jokingly added the sentence "attachment: Mo Wuling sends greetings to you", which led to a fight between the two girls. Finally, Mo Wuling deleted the email before it could be sent out.
After sending the email, both women were not sleepy. Ren Jingxi opened the browser sleepily, and the home page was directly Xiangshan portal.
A banner was prominently hung on a "to youth" activity, and the words "to our lost youth" at the box office of the next week of 67 million were prominently displayed on the home page.
Click the banner to enter the recent activity page participated by tens of millions of people.
On the message board, hung high on the top, won 3.27 million praise and 290000 messages. The post is very simple and clear: "he Xiaoyu, I'm Liu Yu, I like you!"
Ren Jingxi looked at the rumor of the headline post and said, "it seems that this post should have been locked in the first place, one, two, three, four, five... Well, it's only 11 words in total, and you can take 100000 yuan of bonus. Wuling, it won't be the nursery over the brocade book?"
"Of course not," Mo Wuling said. "These two people have been reported by the media. They are two students who have just graduated from a university in Shenyang this year, and the girl has accepted the boy's confession."
"I don't understand. You look at the back, take photos and write a bunch of speeches. It took a lot of effort to squeeze into the top ten," Ren Jingxi shook his head: "moreover, there should be many such confession posts. Why is this one?"
Mo Wuling said: "Xiangshan network investigated it, because it was an earlier confession post. At the beginning, everyone began to coax him and directly pushed him to the top. Then, tens of thousands of similar posts appeared on the whole message board, which actually took advantage of time and luck. However, I actually think about" to youth "again recently Why can I succeed? I'll probably understand when I see this post. "
"Why?"
"Because what I wrote is our former life, real youth, so it resonates with everyone," Mo Wuling said, pointing to the short 11 word post: "like this, many college students have boys and girls who regret that they failed to express their regrets on campus, and finally become permanent regrets. Therefore, this post aroused everyone's resonance."
Ren Jingxi thought and had to admit that what Mo Wuling said was probably the truth.
The next day was Saturday.
July 24th
The weekend has been opened in China. Ren Jingxi is still a busy day, so that the house viewing can only be postponed to Sunday.
In the evening, Mo Wuling, who didn't want to socialize, was forced to attend the celebration reception of "to youth". After Friday, July 23, "to youth" pushed the total box office to 156 million with another single day revenue of about 7 million, surpassing Party A and Party B, which previously ranked first of the year, and reached the top of the annual title.
Not surprisingly, it basically locked the box office champion in 1999.
Because it took the form of a Western-style reception, it was much more lively than the opening ceremony of the last "Chu Han" trilogy. In addition to the core of the brocade book series, many leading figures in the circle came to join in the fun. The banquet hall of the Beijing hotel was filled with more than 300 guests.
The core of the reception is undoubtedly the crew of "to youth".
Cao Jingchu, a new young director, has become the target of all families to make friends and win over. Mo Wuling has also been praised. There are several starring stars. Some film and television company bosses talked about business on the spot, and even some less respectable, a middle-aged rich man in his forties, confessed to Zeng Damei that as long as Zeng Damei promised to buy a house and a car immediately, he can also invest in making movies, Let her be the only heroine.
Jin Shu didn't talk to the guy who had just made a little money in recent years and didn't know who he was. He was too polite because he went too far and invited the other party out directly.
The short farce did not affect everyone's mood. Everyone was very happy.
Returning to the hat alley, Ren Jingxi and Mo Wuling were slightly drunk.
Go to the hot spring bath again.
Speaking of it, in midsummer, soaking in this hot spring bath has a different taste and can preserve health.
After taking a comfortable bath, the two girls are still discussing tonight's reception.
About a farce episode.
At the beginning, they all criticized men together, then talked about a guy and explained him together.
Although the flower heart, but at least he does not entangle.
Not only that, even some guy seems too cold and thin. However, this seems more hateful.
And the spirited Cao Jingchu.
I went to Hollywood to exchange and study for a year, and then returned to China to complete "to youth". At present, I am only 29 years old, but I have become famous. Of course, it's not as brilliant as when someone was 18, but it's also top-notch.
Returning to Mo Wuling's wing room, Ren Jingxi reached his desk again, turned on the computer and said, "in fact, there are several good guys in the first batch of 30 people, such as shooting wormhole for our company And, uh, he's a Mongolian. I don't know whether his surname is Wu or ur. Maybe that's his name. The names of ethnic minorities are very long. The first self-made and self directed martial arts film will be released next year. According to President Wu, the sample film is very brilliant, but because it's a low-cost martial arts film, the box office won't be too high. There's another one named Xu, special Yi has been assigned to spend a year with Ang Lee. He is making a documentary called the lost Wulin. He also has ideas. He also plans to make a film in the future. "
Mo Wuling leaned softly on the sofa and said, "since it is exchange and learning, this is the best group of people. It's not strange to be brilliant."
"No," said Ren Jingxi "Just like the group that has just passed recently, the people who ran away from the relationship came to me at the beginning. In my opinion, the capable and related people came back at most. In fact, less than half of the first group of 30 people came back, and most of them tried to stay in the United States. Because of this, they would rather be black households. After all, there... Anyway, it is better to come back and start from scratch The bolder one. "
Mo Wuling nodded, but also understood: "who is not like this now? I occasionally want to emigrate. What about you?"
"Of course," said Ren Jingxi. "In fact, it's not easy to do huanzhu film and television now."
Mo Wuling thought of something and said, "I remember sister Chen told me about it. If you want to immigrate, you'd better go to Australia instead of the United States."
Ren Jingxi wondered, "why?"
Mo Wuling actually didn't quite understand it, so he could only say what he thought: "you know, he... His real wife is Australian. It should be a country he attaches great importance to business. Anyway, it's probably like this."
Ren Jingxi said, without asking more, but quietly remembered it in his heart.
After the computer was turned on, I didn't expect it. I opened my email and found that someone had replied to the letter. Ren Jingxi immediately cheered up.
Mo Wuling noticed Ren Jingxi's reaction. He got up from the sofa and ran behind Ren Jingxi to watch someone's email reply.
About the strategy of making blockbusters here, there first gave affirmation.
Then, there are several specific suggestions.
The first is mythology.
This is also the main idea of Ren Jingxi. However, someone's suggestion is not to adapt long articles such as journey to the West and list of gods for the time being, but to start with short stories such as Liaozhai.
According to someone, the shorter the story, the more room for adaptation.
There was even the question of censorship.
In Chinese film and television works, ghosts can't be seen, so they use demons instead. They also joked that although they didn't get it accurately, they also thought it was interesting: they could be refined before the founding of the people's Republic of China.
The second is the combination of martial arts and fantasy, which can be applied to some specific historical figures.
There is also a specific case.
It is probably about the story of Di Renjie, a famous minister in the Tang Dynasty. He portrayed Di Renjie as a figure with both literature and martial arts. When he first entered Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, he encountered a mysterious and strange case in which the emperor was poisoned, so he received the order of the later famous Empress Wu to inquire about the truth.
It was also mentioned that if the first film is successful, it can be made into a long-term series, similar to the 007 series in Hollywood, one big case after another.
Third, the type of urban crime action of large-scale production.
Taking into account various domestic restrictions, while using Chinese actors as the protagonists, we can place the scenes overseas.
Like Chinatown.
Then I gave a specific case, called "Chinatown detective".
The last one surprised both girls.
Main melody.
Someone encouraged them to be the main theme?
Well, the first surprise is that that guy knows the main melody.
However, after the other party's introduction in the email, the two girls realized that what someone said was not their usual main melody, "tunnel warfare", "landmine warfare", "heroic children", or model plays, but an entertaining main melody.
Someone's detailed suggestion is to select some specific nodes in modern Chinese history, and then gather stars, gather stars, and gather together to gather stars.
In short, the brighter the stars, the better.
Then, just a series of star rankings is enough to attract the audience into the cinema. In this way, the film company can get the box office without delaying the effect of teaching and entertainment.
In front of the computer.
Two girls read someone's email carefully. They just think it's an eye opener.
