Chapter 94 Recruiting troops
Wang Zhonglei naturally couldn't make up his mind about Wang Hao's offer of 400 million for a 15% investment share in his new movie. He could only say that he would go back and discuss it with his brother Wang Zhongjun.

Wang Hao was not surprised by this answer.

Although Wang Zhonglei seems to be showing off outside, the person who can actually make decisions in Huayi now is actually his brother Wang Zhongjun.

So the meal was neither salty nor bland. Apart from chatting about the new movie for a while at the beginning, they didn't say anything valuable afterwards.

After the dinner, Wang Hao did not passively wait for Huayi’s response. Instead, he immediately sent a message through his uncle to find new film investors.

In addition, he also took out his mobile phone and started calling another big boss who he hadn't contacted for a long time.

"Hello, is this Mr. Chen? I'm Wang Hao. How are you doing recently? How is the development progress of the new phone?"

"Oh, that's ok, congratulations then.

By the way, I heard that Google, a company across the ocean, is developing a new operating system based on mobile communication devices. If you are interested, you can go and consult them.

There is another thing. I am about to shoot a new movie, "The Call". Just by listening to the name, you can tell that the mobile phone is the main prop.

Mr. Chen, if you guys at Opal have any idea of ​​sponsoring, I will keep this opportunity for you.

Come over and talk then, that's fine, I'll be waiting for Mr. Chen to come, I just happen to have some ideas here, we can discuss more then."

The person Wang Hao just called was the one who called Chen Mingyong, the boss of Opal.

After he sponsored Wang Hao's movie "Buried Alive" last time, he got most of the information about smart phones. He immediately went back and resigned from BBK. He set up his own company, Oppo, and produced MP3 and MP4 while conducting research and development of smart phones.

Wang Hao naturally didn't understand anything about high-tech, but now it seemed that this guy's business was pretty good, and he might be able to get more sponsorship fees this time.

After Wang Hao's uncle released the news, Huayi Brothers did not hesitate for too long. They called Wang Hao the next night and agreed to his offer.

However, the other party also made an additional request, which is that some of the roles in the film needed to be played by actors from Huayi.

Wang Hao did not agree to this matter directly, but he also gave the actor from the other company a chance to audition.

At this point, the 45% investment share of "Fatal Call" has brought in 1200 million yuan in funds, and the filming cost of the entire film disclosed to the public has reached 3000 million yuan.

An investment of this scale is considered a big production in today's entertainment industry.

Although compared with Feng Dapao's "Night Banquet" and Zhang Guoshi's "Curse of the Golden Flower", Wang Hao's "Fatal Call" can only be regarded as a small matter.

But those two are famous directors who have worked hard in the film industry for many years to achieve their current status.

It is astounding enough that Wang Hao, a 23-year-old newcomer, can earn tens of millions on his first film.

Even many people in the circle who have never heard of his name are secretly inquiring about his background.

Wang Hao was not disturbed by the external disturbance. With the successful arrival of the initial project funds, the employees of Galaxy Interactive Entertainment also began to get busy. They released auditions for some unimportant movie roles, prepared the crew, prepared props, rented equipment, arranged location and accommodation, and set up shooting plans...

With the experience of the first two shoots, plus two post-shoot summaries, Wang Hao's small team has also figured out its own set of industrialized preparation processes, and each task is being carried out in an orderly manner.

Of course, in this process, there are some problems that they cannot solve.

At this time, the importance of investors becomes apparent.

The first thing is about the closure of streets for filming in Shanghai. With the resources and connections of Wang Hao and his team, it is indeed a bit difficult to connect with Shanghai on this issue.

But through the relationship with Huaying Group and Han Sanping's connections, plus the nominal 3000 million project, what was originally a difficult task can be accomplished simply.

In addition, regarding the heroine, that is, the candidate for Xu Zheng’s wife, Wang Hao, after careful consideration, finally decided to take care of his alma mater.

So through the relationship of his mentor Tian Zhuang, he got in touch with the legendary fairy Jinghong, who was also his senior sister Yu Feihong.

As a student who also graduated from the Shanghai Film Academy, Yu Feihong made her debut very early. At the age of 16, she played the leading role in the movie "The Murderer and the Coward".

After that, she studied at the Shanghai Film Academy, and after graduation she went to the United States for further studies. After returning to China, she became famous with the two TV series "The Flying Dagger of Xiao Li" and "The Sword of Three Young Masters".

However, after that, this stunning fairy did not focus all her energy on her acting career. Instead, she started to dabble in another field and became a female director.

Just last year, Yu Feihong participated deeply in the TV series "I Love You, Goodbye", which was adapted from the novel "Wine Red and Ice Blue", in the multiple roles of leading actress, producer, producer, and ending song singer. She even prepared for it for more than a year.

And now she is preparing another movie called "Thousand Years of Prayer", and she is ready to be the director herself.

Therefore, if there was no relationship between the alumni and Professor Tian Zhuang, Wang Hao would not even be sure of inviting this big sister who has a lot of ideas.

After solving the above two problems, Wang Hao contacted Li Zhongzhi in Hong Kong through his connections at Huayi and invited him to join his crew to serve as the extremely important action director of this film.

Unlike Wang Hao’s previous two films, “Buried” and “The Shallows”, “Fatal Call” has a lot of gun battle scenes.

In addition, there are some chasing action scenes when the male protagonist is hiding and escaping. In this regard, Wang Hao, as a newcomer, is not very good at it.

Besides, even if he understands a little, human energy is always limited.

As the chief director of the film, he has to focus more on the operation of the entire crew.

In the future, with the increase of investment and the improvement of the film industry, the crew will have more and more work to do, and professional matters should be left to professionals.

The Li Zhongzhi that Wang Hao found is such a professional action director.

Perhaps as a behind-the-scenes person, his name is not well known to people outside the circle, but if you mention the movies he has participated in directing, most people will say "Oh" and "It's him."
