Chapter 943 Female No. 2 (3/3)
We will film "Three Kingdoms: The Battle of Red Cliff" first and it will be released next summer.
Then there is "The Love Between Humans and Ghosts", which is grandly launched on Chinese Valentine's Day!
In this way, Yang Ming feels that there is still plenty of time next year, and he can't help but wonder if he should make another movie and still put it in the Christmas schedule?
But it definitely can’t be a blockbuster-level movie because there’s not enough time.
He thought for a while and decided to forget it and talk about it later.
After tossing and turning, Yang Ming turned several times on the bed, but he still couldn't sleep. Since he couldn't sleep, his mind couldn't help but think about the company's movie plan for next year.
Oriental DreamWorks has officially made its name in the global film market through several of its films.
Hollywood Barber is on the right track, and Yang Ming has not been disappointed. With the scripts he provided, several movies made this year have all been hits, and the box office results are very gratifying. According to Barber's estimation, after removing all kinds of
After personnel and expenses, there may be a profit of at least 200 million yuan.
This is simply a miracle for a film company that was only a third-rate film company before it was acquired.
Domestically, Liu Xinsheng is also doing very well.
Especially with the existence of Yang Ming, a "big head" profit machine, it is estimated that the domestic Oriental DreamWorks' profit will exceed 2 billion yuan!
This is without taking into account the box office revenue of "Transformers".
If the revenue from "Transformers" is added, the company's profit will reach 3 billion yuan.
Yang Ming believes that if this data is released, it will definitely shock the entire entertainment industry, but Oriental DreamWorks is Yang Ming's private company, and there is no need to disclose its financial status to the outside world.
Therefore, the outside world can only have a rough estimate of the revenue of Oriental DreamWorks, without detailed and real data.
However, this is not what makes Yang Ming the most satisfied. After all, in his opinion, with the support of resources from his previous life, it is reasonable to make profits, and it is unexpected if he does not make money.
What he feels most gratified about is that the company's director team has been truly established and can no longer be supported by him alone.
Moreover, the directors of the company also have their own styles and do not blindly make commercial films. This makes the company walk on two legs and is very stable.
In this way, a virtuous cycle will be formed, with more films being released and other independent directors coming to seek investment and distribution.
When Yang Ming was thinking about the company's plans for next year, he couldn't help but think of a question he had been asked by fans and the media recently, whether he was in the United States or on a promotional tour in Europe.
So when will the sequel to "Transformers" be released?
To be honest, he really didn't want to make the sequel to "Transformers", but he had no choice. He couldn't let others do the first three movies.
After all, even if he is not the director, he is still the starring role!
The protagonists in the first three films will not change. The settings of the first three films will not be overturned until the fourth film. At that time, he can arrange for others to take over the production of the sequels of the "Transformers" series.
Yang Ming thought about it seriously and decided that the second part of "Transformers" should wait until the year after next.
He feels that he will need to make some choices between directors and actors in the future. After all, if he plays an important role in each film, then as long as it is made into a series, he will inevitably be unable to escape the identity of the director.
Because no director would have the courage to take over and tell him the story with a microphone, and even Yang Ming himself would probably feel very uncomfortable.
As a result, Yang Ming had previously considered whether to star in "The Fast and the Furious", but at this time, he gave up.
Otherwise, he will definitely not be able to really let go of every sequel in the "Fast and Furious" series and arrange for others to take over.
Yang Ming was sleeping in bed thinking about the company's future development plan, and in the end he fell asleep in a daze.
Fortunately, there were no activities planned today. In the early morning, Su Su came in and saw that Yang Ming was sleeping very hard, so she didn't ask him to get up and let him have a good rest.
However, at half past eight, Yang Ming was still woken up by the ringtone of his cell phone.
"Hello?"
"Hello, is this Yang?" Wucuo Novel Network did not skip words. A loud voice came from the other end of the phone, "I am Whoopi, the Whoopi you gave me your business card yesterday! You must remember me, right?
I am so excited that I have thought about calling you for a long time before calling you at this time. Can I ask where you can audition?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.
Yang Ming was still a little sleepy, but when Wu Bi's long-winded voice made him wake up, he said helplessly: "Come to the hotel where I'm staying, call me when you get there, and take me with you
You go over and audition."
Then, he told the name and address of the hotel where he was staying, asked Whoopi to confirm, and then hung up the phone.
After lying on the bed for a while, he got up and took a quick shower. Just when he was about to go downstairs to have something to eat, Whoopi called again and she had arrived.
This speed made Yang Ming speechless.
Then, he quickly called Su Susu and asked her to pick up Whoopi downstairs while he went to have something to eat first.
While eating, Yang Ming called Manager Liang and inquired. Not long after, after he had eaten, Manager Liang also drove to the hotel and took Yang Ming and Whoopi to the company office for auditions.
The audition process for Whoopi went very smoothly. Although she could not let go at first because of her nervousness and made many mistakes, after some adjustments from Yang Ming, the final audition was quite satisfactory to Yang Ming.
To be honest, Yang Ming felt that for Whoopi, the role of psychic medium Otta was equivalent to her true performance.
The whole person stood facing the camera, and just by the innocent expression of rolling his eyes, he was full of joy.
Therefore, Yang Ming quickly announced that Whoopi passed the audition.
"Whoopi, this drama may not start shooting until after May next year. I will send you the script later. You can think about this role carefully during this time! It will take a little longer. If you are interested in taking this role,
You must pay attention to the schedule." At the end, Yang Ming said a little embarrassed.
It is indeed a bit surprising that Yang Ming asked Whoopi to reserve a schedule for a movie that will start shooting in almost half a year.
Who would have thought that he would meet Whoopi in the UK, who is just right to play the role of psychic medium Otta?
If it were left to other actors, they might think twice about it. Not everyone is willing to wait for half a year. After all, if you take other roles during this period and join the crew, there may not be a schedule within half a year.
But Whoopi obviously doesn't take this to heart.
"Yang, don't worry. It is estimated that in the entire European entertainment industry, in the past six months, no one else will ask me to film a movie except you. Even if there is, it will probably only be a role with two or three lines, which is not very interesting.
"Whoopi said with a carefree wave of her hand, and finally she asked: "By the way, Yang, how many lines does my character have? Isn't it just two or three? Wucuo Novel Network has a lot of words."
Hearing Whoopi's words, Manager Liang who was standing aside couldn't help laughing and snickered. He had never seen a director audition specifically for a role with only two or three lines!
The corner of Yang Ming's mouth couldn't help but twitch. This Whoopi's chatterbox skill is really a powerful weapon!
"You are the second female lead!" He said calmly.
Chapter completed!
