Huayu, can you be called the best actor if you don’t indulge yourself?
Chapter 647 Heartwarming
Chapter 647 Heartwarming
Street-side location.
All kinds of vehicles were parked there.
Most of them are trucks used to transport costumes, props, lights, and other items, while a few RVs are scattered among them, specifically for the crew members to rest.
There are many stars in the Ip Man film crew, but very few can enjoy such treatment.
It was only 09, after all.
This is no longer the era when movie salaries skyrocketed and RVs were everywhere.
Although RVs are generally small these days, having a private space to rest in during filming is already a rare treat.
Shake the key.
Li Luo opened the car door casually.
"Please come in."
He stepped aside and smiled, gesturing to the girls.
"Wow."
"so beautiful."
"My God, there's even a bed inside."
The girls strode up the steps, shouting and making a racket as they excitedly examined the sofa, dining table, kitchen, and the bed at the back of the car.
Liu Wan had already turned on the air conditioner, and the cool air invigorated everyone.
The space inside is small.
But it was already novel enough for them.
Although the investment in "Empresses in the Palace" was larger than that in "Ip Man 2", Li Luo only provided Zheng Xiaolong with a car, and he himself stayed indoors or in a tent to rest.
More funds.
They were all invested in television production.
However, now that he's working on the Ip Man film set, Li Luo, as the male lead, is naturally enjoying a completely different experience.
He can be stingy with himself.
However, it is absolutely unacceptable for others to be stingy with themselves.
Get on the bus at a leisurely pace
Li Luo couldn't help but grin.
Ultimately, the car belonged to Huang Baiming, but he rented it from Xinghuo Film and Television Base and then leased it to the Ip Man crew for his own exclusive use.
This account.
It's a good deal no matter how you look at it.
The same principle applies to accommodation.
Although Li Luo lives in his own large flat on the top floor of the Xinghuo Hotel, it doesn't mean he can save on accommodation costs. The Ip Man film crew still has to pay him extra according to the standard of an executive suite.
About that.
Huang Baiming was also somewhat at a loss for words.
But our boss, Mr. Huang, still followed the procedures decisively. As a businessman with decades of experience, he understood very well the principle of keeping things separate.
one more.
In "Ip Man 2", Li Luo was already giving a friendly price for just a share of the profits.
He had no interest in worrying about such small amounts of money.
Close the car door.
Li Luo moved to the kitchen, turned on the tap, and washed his face with running water: "There are playing cards on the table. You can play a couple of rounds first, and take a break if you get tired. Everyone, please don't be shy."
"Okay~"
"Understood, Brother Luo."
The girls chattered away, continuing to curiously examine the interior of the RV.
Sitting on the sofa, Wang Xiaochen bounced excitedly:
"Luo Ge is so big!"
Compared to the stuffy tents and folding chairs for the actors, this place is incredibly spacious, especially since while others are huddled in tents waiting for their turn, you can lie on a bed in your car and rest.
That feeling.
Just thinking about it makes me feel comfortable.
The feeling of comfort is something that comes from comparison!
Just a casual remark from her mouth almost made Li Qin stumble, and she quickly sat down on the sofa at the dining table.
"good."
Li Luo grabbed a towel from the side and wiped his face haphazardly: "But I feel it's still a bit small. It will be too crowded if there are more guests, so I asked my older brother to help me order a motorhome a while ago."
"However, it should be next year before it arrives."
"Big brother?"
Reyi suddenly raised her head.
"order?"
Jiang Xin also became curious.
"Brother Hendrik Willem Van Loon".
Smiling, Li Luo hung the towel back up and walked a few steps to the dining table: "He's a real expert at this kind of thing. His RV was extremely extravagant when we were filming 'Little Big Soldier'."
“I asked him to help me order a Freightliner heavy truck campervan, which is nearly 12 meters long and 4 meters high.”
"By the time."
"It should be much more spacious than here."
He turned around and sat down.
Li Luo casually drew a deck of cards.
Li Qin, who was standing next to her, quickly moved further inside, but was soon stunned and clicked her tongue in surprise: "What brand is this? How much does it cost?"
"It's under the Mercedes-Benz umbrella."
With a grin, Li Luo shuffled the cards quickly: "About five million, come on, let's play a one-dollar game of Dou Dizhu, double the winnings if you win, no cheating allowed, cash on delivery!"
This sentence.
The girls' eyes twitched from listening to it.
Why do two such incongruous numbers, five million and one dollar, sound so natural coming from the other person's mouth?
"Feel sorry."
Li Luo realized what was happening and quickly waved his hand, "I didn't mean to show off. It just so happens that Xiao Qin asked. Actually, it's nothing. It's just a campervan for temporary rest."
"Shut up!!!"
The girls were so angry they were all saying the same thing.
"Hahaha."
Li Luo couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Actually, he wasn't trying to show off. Getting a motorhome was a necessity. He didn't want to keep using vehicles that others had used repeatedly, since those things didn't cost him much money.
Sparks don't count.
It's just the other side of the dream world.
By the end of the third quarter, the game company's revenue, as reported by Xu Bo and Wu Yu, had exceeded 200 million RMB. Considering the game industry's terrifying gross profit margin, they were making a fortune.
Even if some of the money is retained for developing new projects, the dividends received will still amount to tens of millions.
It cost around five million.
He didn't even flinch.
Amid his hearty laughter, Jiang Xin and Reyizha sat down.
The former is playing cards.
The latter was responsible for observing the game.
However, none of the girls had recovered from Li Luo's words. They all knew that Brother Luo was a big shot; Xinghuo Films' "Painted Skin" sold for more than 300 million yuan last year.
But that number is somewhat unrealistic.
I can't find it.
No one can touch it.
It's nowhere near as impactful as spending five million to buy a motorhome, which is equivalent to driving two or three houses in Beijing on the road, and the kind that keeps depreciating in value.
Think of this.
Everyone was getting a little thirsty.
The sunlight falling on Luo Ge at this moment became somewhat golden, making them feel a little dizzy.
"Dinner's here!"
Shouts rang out, and the short-lived card game was abruptly interrupted.
Liu Wan and Chen Xiao carried seven full boxed meals, drinks, and fruit onto the RV. Everyone quickly put away their playing cards, thanked them, and accepted the package, placing it neatly on the table and opening it.
Special meals and regular boxed meals.
All supplies are provided by Xinghuo Hotel.
Therefore, the hotel's catering department is much larger than that of other four- or five-star hotels to meet the catering needs of the film and television base.
And that department.
It is also a top priority for supervision.
Anyone found to have engaged in such activities will be dismissed and held legally accountable.
Now, the extras can earn about three yuan just from their boxed meals. It sounds like a trivial number, but the Ip Man crew alone consumes at least four or five hundred boxed meals a day.
This does not include special meals.
Moreover, this price will continue to rise in the future, so such a huge profit margin must be closely monitored.
only.
Li Luo's eating manners were not unseemly.
The money earned in this area is mainly for a steady, long-term income. I can't let people talk behind my back because of this, so even the lowest-priced boxed meals are of a pretty good standard, and the extras eat meat and vegetables as well.
That's a bit too little.
But it does exist.
If the production team were willing to spend more money on meal allowances, the actors would eat even better.
For example, the catering standards of the "Empresses in the Palace" production team were quite good, and the boxed meals were among the best in China.
As the lid was lifted.
The aroma from the box immediately wafted out.
A table was piled high with stir-fried pork with chili peppers, stir-fried eggs with tomatoes, and minced meat and eggplant, all glistening with oil and looking delicious. It was enough to make anyone's mouth water.
A special meal would consist of larger portions of meat and vegetables, more variety of choices, and some drinks and fruit.
Of course.
If the actors want to eat better.
They could easily pay out of their own pockets to have a gourmet meal at the hotel, or demand a better standard of catering when signing the contract.
With the rise in popularity of motorhomes, more actors are choosing to cook for themselves.
"Come on, come on."
After separating the clean chopsticks, Li Luo deftly served them food: "Let's eat together, so everyone can have more variety. Don't be shy with me, even though we're not in the same production team anymore."
"But Brother Luo still welcomes you guys who come over to freeload."
"Hahaha."
"Thank you, Brother Luo, I can do it myself."
Some sat, some stood, and the seven people circled around the dining table.
Laughter rang out continuously.
It felt like we were back on the set of "Empresses in the Palace," where everyone was always gathered together, eating and drinking in a lively atmosphere.
"Come."
Li Luo put a piece of sausage into Li Qin's lunchbox and said with a smile, "Little Qin seems to have lost some weight. Eat more meat. I remember you really liked the grilled sausages when we had the barbecue last time."
"Thank you, Brother Xie Luo."
Li Qin wished she could bury her head in it, and frantically shoveled at the white rice.
The chopsticks were suddenly stirred.
A small clump of white rice flew up.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, it landed on Li Luo's black training pants.
"Hey~"
Hastily putting down her chopsticks, Li Qin awkwardly reached for the rice, saying, "Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean to."
Long, slender fingers fell.
It went straight for that handful of rice grains that were still warm.
"Shh."
The fingertips brushed past Li Luo's crotch, nearly making him jump three feet high.
Ok?
Li Qin was bewildered.
What is this?
Subconsciously.
Our Miss Shen Meizhuang scratched with her fingertips again, and even explored the specific shape.
Less than 0.05 seconds.
The girl's buttocks tensed up instantly from the shock.
"fine."
Before the others could turn their curious gazes toward them, Li Luo swiftly covered the other person's hand and smiled calmly at everyone, saying, "You guys don't know yet, do you? We've basically secured a buyer for our drama!"
"really?"
"No way, so fast?"
"It's not even finished filming yet, which TV station will it be sold to?"
Such explosive news.
They successfully diverted everyone's attention.
Almost everyone was excitedly inquiring about the sale of the show. How much it sold for was none of their business, but the broadcasting platform and its performance were of great concern to them.
Among these people.
Of course, this does not include Li Qin.
Although Luo Ge only covered it lightly, it allowed her fingers to fully feel the outline.
The strange, warm sensation completely terrified her, giving her an overwhelming urge to scream. But she could only desperately try to control herself to avoid blushing in front of everyone. "Guess what?"
Smiling, Li Luo looked around and then stared intently at Li Qin, who was sitting next to him.
what happened.
You've gotten addicted to touching it, haven't you?
Why haven't you taken your hand back yet? Although the taste is indeed very good, now you could be seen making a fuss at any time. What about Brother Luo's image as a gentleman?
Their eyes met.
Li Qin finally came to her senses.
He withdrew his finger in a flash, feeling ashamed.
The shyness that welled up in her eyes, along with her fair and delicate face, stirred Li Luo's heart. He couldn't help but recall the famous scene when she spun around with Dilraba on Running Man.
The look in his eyes made Li Qin's heart pound, and she hurriedly lowered her eyelids.
"Shancheng TV?"
"Jiangsu Province?"
"Beijing TV?"
Amidst the excited guesses, Li Luo smiled and turned his gaze away, meeting the excited faces before him: "Hunan TV, Zhejiang TV, Beijing TV, Dragon TV."
"what?"
Jiang Xin looked at him and asked, puzzled, "Which one is it?"
"Four families."
Reyizha reacted very quickly.
"Yes."
Li Luo casually placed the rice grains he had picked up on the table, grabbed his chopsticks, and took a bite of stir-fried pork with chili peppers: "Once the post-production is finished next year, these four TV stations will broadcast it at the same time."
"Everyone, please put on a good performance from now on."
"Seize this opportunity, and I wish you all the best from now on!"
Put down your chopsticks.
Li Luo raised his drink in greeting.
Without saying a word, everyone, including Li Qin, excitedly brought their drinks over, gently touched them to his lips, and then gulped them down to calm their excitement.
The simultaneous broadcast by four leading television stations will undoubtedly create a powerful and impactful effect.
It practically went viral on social media in front of the entire nation.
If it weren't for the backing of Brother Luo, Xinghuo Film and Television, and the hugely invested TV series "Empresses in the Palace," no one knows if they would ever encounter such an opportunity again.
If you don't try hard enough, you won't succeed.
They will never forgive themselves.
At Li Luo's invitation.
Like wolves drawn by the scent of blood, the crowd channeled their desire for fame and fortune into their appetite, devouring the dishes laid out before them.
Eating the food.
Li Luo recalled the information Lin Yue had reported.
The buyer for the currently filming "Empresses in the Palace" has indeed been basically finalized.
All that's left is to sign the contract.
After several days of back-and-forth negotiations, four television stations, led by Hunan TV, finally secured the first-run broadcast rights for the series at a price of 1.95 million yuan per episode.
Exorbitant price!
It's not 1.95 million per unit for each of the four companies, but rather 1.95 million for the entire episode sold together.
despite this.
It's still an astronomical price even now!
It's worth noting that "My Chief and My Regiment," which was released at the beginning of the year, was also jointly purchased by four companies. At that time, the price of one million yuan was already considered the most expensive and sky-high price, while the current purchase price has almost doubled.
The final number of episodes has not yet been confirmed, but it can be calculated based on the original number of episodes.
First-run broadcasting rights.
It has already reached nearly 150 million RMB.
On paper alone, the budget already covers the construction and filming costs of Zhen Huan City and the TV series "Empresses in the Palace".
Regarding this number.
The two sides engaged in a heated exchange of words.
The main reason is that TV series prices are rising, and as the seller, Xinghuo Films naturally wants to sell as late as possible, since the price of the series can continue to rise.
It's not necessary to sell it.
It's obviously impossible.
Everyone can guess what you're thinking; everyone knows you want to hold out for a higher price.
The main reason why major TV stations chose to join forces is not only to share the financial burden, but also to control the market and prevent Xinghuo Films from dragging things out or making unwarranted demands.
Holding on to the issue will only make things worse.
Therefore, based on each party's desired price and the future market premium, and of course, the mutual support from competitors, a solution that everyone can accept has finally been reached.
smiled.
Li Luo continued eating heartily.
And he urged everyone not to be shy.
The others readily agreed, completely baffling Li Qin!
While I was feeling incredibly anxious, Brother Luo seemed completely unaffected, as if nothing had happened. This made the food in my mouth tasteless.
Chopsticks danced in the air.
Everyone quickly finished eating and drinking.
"I am full."
After putting down her chopsticks, Reyizha picked up a tissue to wipe her mouth: "Brother Luo, you should rest well at noon. I'm going back to Zhen Huan's place to see how their filming is going and to familiarize myself with the script again."
"Me too."
Jiang Xin was in high spirits.
"Memorize the script."
Xiaochen quickly caught up with the rhythm.
Chen Xiao didn't say anything, but the quick movements he made to pack up the lunchboxes revealed his thoughts.
The afternoon shoot.
Everyone had lost interest in watching.
The exciting news that their TV series would be broadcast simultaneously on four satellite channels has them incredibly excited, and now they're only thinking about how to make their characters even more outstanding.
"OK."
Smiling and shaking his head, Li Luo said calmly, "Then you guys go first. Xiao Qin, please stay a moment. I have something to discuss with you."
"Hey."
Li Qin responded subconsciously.
After realizing what had happened, I panicked.
"Okay."
"Then let's go back first."
"Goodbye, Brother Luo. See you later, Xiao Qin."
The farewells of the crowd continued to rise, and even Liu Wan left with her trash. Normally, she wouldn't stay in the RV during her lunch break, but would find a place to stay by herself.
Give each other enough private space.
As the car door closes.
The once lively RV suddenly became completely silent, filled only with the sounds of my own pounding heart, people moving around outside, and the laughter of the extras drifting over.
The sounds and noises reached Li Qin's ears one after another.
The 19-year-old girl clutched the hem of her T-shirt tightly, her head bowed like an ostrich.
In just a few seconds.
The delicate earlobes turned as red as blood.
"Gudu."
Take another sip of the beverage.
Li Luo slowly and deliberately twisted the bottle cap.
Looking sideways, a faint cleavage appeared below her fair, jade-like collarbone, and the sexy curve rose and fell with her heavy breathing, making her look even more alluring.
The sunlight streaming through the window screen dyed her hair, making it look like gold.
A light scent of perfume.
It has a fragrance that is so refreshing and delightful.
"Sister Mei!"
Li Luo turned to the side and looked at the guy with a smile.
Head bowed.
They were speechless.
A blush crept onto her face.
"Consort Hui~"
Li Luo's smile deepened.
There was still no response. Li Qin lowered her head as low as it could go, her neck turning pink.
"Mei'er~"
Li Luo's title has been changed again.
"Your Majesty"
Li Qin bit her lip and raised her head, her voice incredibly shy: "Your Majesty."
During filming.
She couldn't look directly at him.
And now.
It was so shameful that I couldn't look directly at it.
"Ah."
Li Luo tentatively reached out and gently cupped the plain chin in front of him.
His whole body trembled violently.
The girl didn't make any further moves.
This reaction filled Li Luo's eyes with a smile.
With a slight lift of her fingers, Li Qin's head was revealed, her pretty, rosy face immediately coming into view. Her eyes were darting around in a panic, but she couldn't hide the ripples of tears welling up in them.
That red lip.
She looked even more radiant than before.
"Call again."
With a light flick of his thumb, Li Luo stroked his smooth face.
This feel.
It's simply beyond words.
Smelling the faint tobacco scent emanating from her fingers and noticing the menacing presence of her training pants, Li Qin's head was completely spinning. And then she heard such provocative words.
Even with the air conditioning on, she was still so hot that her back was covered in a fine layer of sweat.
His lips murmured.
The voice was barely audible, like a mosquito's buzz:
"His Majesty."
"look at me."
Li Luo increased the pressure on his fingers slightly.
"His Majesty!"
With her eyes fixed straight ahead, the girl exuded a fearless, all-or-nothing aura.
As for Brother Luo and Sister Zihan.
or.
Forget it.
Who told him to be such a bad guy?
The wicked smile that appeared on Luo Ge's lips was so wicked that it stirred her restlessness like a raging fire. Then, all the strength in her body receded like a tide, and her eyes were tightly closed.
"Hmm~"
Gripping tightly against his broad back, Li Qin groaned softly and indistinctly.
A soft, sweet voice.
Li Luo was overjoyed.
He picked up Mei-jie and walked towards the small bed at the back of the car, while secretly complaining that it seemed he had to replace the car, otherwise even a slight noise would be noticed by people outside.
He was thinking about something else.
His hands moved very quickly.
With a soft snap, Li Qin felt a relief in her chest.
Realize something.
The girl shook her head like a rattle-drum.
Followed by.
My buttocks felt cold.
Li Qin was about to say something in his haste, but His Majesty's movements were incredibly smooth. He led his troops straight into the central camp, their iron hooves thundering as they swiftly cut down generals and seized flags.
His eyes were about to burst.
The teeth dug the workout clothes deep into the muscles.
hiss~
My eyebrows twitched from the pain.
What the hell!
Li Luo stared blankly at Shen Meizhuang.
Clinging tightly to his shoulder, Li Qin hugged him tightly, her voice trembling with tears.
"Your Majesty~~~"
