Finally, it is true that the book "Midnight Taxi" written by Xie Yu was jointly invested by Xie Yu Studio and Dormitory 402 when Xie Yu bought a house.

After Chen Youyou reported to the leadership for approval, not only did she give Xie Yu a red light, but she also gave her a lot of resources.

After all, Xie Yu is a well-received director who has not yet paid any compensation. He must support those who deserve support.

In such a short period of time, Xie Yu, who was not well-known in school, actually became famous and began to be "watched".

There was even a modeling company that contacted Xie Yu and asked him if he needed a model. This made Xie Yu really confused. Fortunately, these things could be left to the producer.

After much deliberation in the final selection, Xie Yu still felt that Lao Dong was the most capable. After agreeing to give her niece Dong Xuan'er an important female supporting role,

Old Dong agreed to be the producer of Xie Yu's new movie "Midnight Taxi", and of course Chen Qiaoqian, the sister of producer assistant Chen Youyou, also got a role.

There are connections everywhere!

My classmates recommended some experienced actors and actresses, and Xie Yu was very experienced and added a large number of internship positions to the theater.

Xie Yu also confirmed the famous heroine Pan Lin who graduated from the Shanghai Theater Academy, and the leading actor Li Hong who graduated from the Shanghai Theater Academy.

Both of them are very popular on the small screen and have won some awards. The movies they starred in were only supporting roles.

This one-on-one challenge was also an opportunity for them, so they only received a symbolic remuneration of several hundred thousand.

Compared with their nearly 10 million TV drama remuneration, Xie Yu's investment of several million is really just like having fun.

Half a month later, after the crew of "Midnight Taxi" obtained the filming permit, and after several filming sessions, the filming of the drama started.

When filming started, Xie Yu found that the support from the theater really made a difference.

Everything went smoothly, although the acting skills of the actors were a bit rough, and the male and female protagonists, perhaps because they were used to filming TV series, were a little slow and their emotions were a little difficult to brew.

But compared to those from Tianyu Art Academy, they are much better.

In this way, everyone still honed their acting skills with each other, and often asked Xie Yu, the director, if he wanted to do another one, I think...

Then, Xie Yu set a record. It took him twenty-five days to shoot a movie. Coupled with rising prices, the shooting cost exceeded four million.

Although this money is not as good as Xie Yu's to catch a wave of market trends in the stock market, it does feel a little distressing.

So in the last few days of filming, everyone was a little afraid of Xie Yu, a director with a small stature and a gloomy face.

However, Chen Qiaoqian was heartless and gave some snacks to Xie Yu.

After the filming of the film was completed, Xie Yu and the film and television technology department of the school jointly edited and produced the film.

Due to some special effects techniques, it took more than two months to edit the film until after the New Year.

However, it also made Xie Yu feel bad, and the special effects cost more than 3 million yuan.

In this way, the external cost is said to be 10 million, which is considered an entry-level mid-level production, but Xie Yu still cut it to 90%.

Then, it’s time to apply for the Long Label and arrange for the show to be released. The theater definitely has resources in this regard.

Originally, it was due to ghosting, and although it was said to be a psychological factor, for the sake of being a drama production, the Dragon Ball was delayed for a while, so I gave it to him.

This made Xie Yu's hanging heart finally relax.

Then, it was time to arrange a theatrical release, which was indeed scheduled for April.

The boss, Wei Xu, and Producer Dong all provided resources for the show.

The number of screens this time will be released is also the largest.

Finally waiting until April!

Jiang Yilin had just finished shooting a set of commercials. After returning to the apartment, she simply washed herself and got ready to go to bed.

But suddenly she couldn't sleep again, and she didn't like the large number of commercial performances and advertising work that the company arranged for her.

Since the sweet pet drama received mediocre feedback from the market, the company has given her less and less resources, and it even seems to overextend her popularity.

The handsome guy Deng Xianxu didn't pay much attention to her, and started coaching newcomers from the company's gymnastics and beauty pageants.

Maybe the more you gain, the more you lose!

Suddenly Jiang Yilin thought of that little man. She hadn't contacted him for a long time and didn't know how he was.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yilin picked up her phone and wanted to send a message to Xie Yu.

After thinking about it, Jiang Yilin did not send it, but wanted to check the status of Xie Yufei's message first.

Suddenly, a piece of news caught Jiang Yilin's attention.

Xie Yu:

My new work "Midnight Taxi" will be released on April 12th, everyone is welcome to pay attention!

Seeing this, Jiang Yilin immediately sat up, picked up her cell phone, and started dialing.

The phone over there rang for a long time, and Xie Yu said tiredly: "Hello!"

Jiang Yilin: "Xie Chaozi, I'm angry. Didn't I agree that I would be the heroine in your new movie?"

Xie Yu heard this familiar voice and said uncomfortably: "Hey, who are you?"

Jiang Yilin was stunned: "I looked at the address book on my phone and recalled the familiar voice."

Jiang Yilin said doubtfully: "What's wrong with you, me, Jiang Yilin!"

Xie Yu: "Oh, classmate Jiang Yilin, what can I do for you?"

Jiang Yilin said dissatisfied: "Xie Chaozi, how can you talk to me in such a tone? I am Jiang Yilin!"

Xie Yu: "I know, but does this have anything to do with me?"

Then, after a "pop".

"Beep, beep, beep..."

The sound of hanging up the phone rang.

Jiang Yilin called over angrily, but unfortunately the phone kept ringing, but no one answered.

After Xie Yu set her phone to silent, she fell asleep.

Recently, I have to deal with the special effects team when editing and scoring music. Although I have learned a lot, I am still very tired.

Waiting until the next day, when he saw more than ten missed calls from Jiang Yilin, Xie Yu just smiled and went to wash up.

It was released across the board on April 12, and Xie Yu also went to the cinema and bought a ticket to watch it.

After a simple dragon logo and studio logo flashed, the movie started.

At the beginning, there was a scene in a taxi, and several people collaborated to murder the driver.

The murderers here are all played by Japanese students from the school's International College, which satisfies Xie Yu's bad taste.

Then there is the male protagonist Li Hong who is not popular because of his writing and is forced to work as a midnight taxi driver with the support of his girlfriend Pan Lin.

But something strange happened. The actor Li Hong couldn't remember anything about driving every night.

However, the number of kilometers traveled and the fuel consumed told Li Hong that the car had been driven out before.

Then, with the encouragement of his girlfriend, Li Hong began to follow up and investigate.

Finally, it was discovered that the old Wei who originally drove the car died of myocardial infarction two years ago, but every night, the car would drive out automatically.

During the investigation, a series of ghost figures were discovered, and finally it was discovered that Lao Wei had never known that he was dead and was still driving for his family to earn money.

Li Hong also realized that his girlfriend was killed five years ago, and he has never been able to admit it...

None of the "ghosts" here are harmful to others, they are all kind-hearted.

I saw that although the cinema was sparse, no one was walking around or playing with their mobile phones. Instead, they kept their eyes on the movie screen, and even their emotions changed accordingly.

Xie Yu let out a breath. Although it may not be a big hit, there should be no problem in recovering the cost!

Sure enough, as Xie Yu expected, although the number of moviegoers was not large, it has been growing, and it was released after 21 days in the cinema.

Thanks to the popularity of the movie market, the box office of Xie Yu's "Midnight Taxi" exceeded 80 million. Although it did not exceed 100 million, the cost was definitely recovered, and it was a huge profit.

Although there are big box office hits from movies that often exceed 100 million yuan, I don’t like them.

But some people who also think Xie Yu has some potential will give Xie Yu a new account on Feibo and like it one after another, making Xie Yu a little popular.

As for the students who went to the theater, after congratulating Xie Yu and expressing their love, it was time to do whatever they wanted!

After things stabilized, the icing on the cake was that producer Dong was very happy to tell Xie Yu about his movie because of the relationship with the International Academy.

It was introduced by Japan's Toei. Although the price is only 500,000, Ant Shao is also meat, and it can be regarded as an exported international film.

Xie Yu nodded with some thoughts, thinking that he would also study this topic in the future and take the international route, so high-end!

Then, Old Dong became mysterious and pulled Xie Yu, saying: "Let's go, I'll take you to celebrate!"

At this time, Xie Yu was happy and naturally followed the good example.

However, I didn’t expect that Lao Dong would take Xie Yu to the dance floor for a disco. Xie Yu was afraid of being stepped on and was not very happy.

Fortunately, I just bypassed the dance floor and entered a private room. There were two middle-aged men with filthy faces inside, and saw Xie Yu coming in.

He quickly stood up and said: "Director Xie is here, please, please!"

Xie Yu looked at Old Dong and saw that Old Dong's face was full of satisfaction and he nodded with satisfaction.
