Chapter 153 Jiang Peian’s Business Empire

When Jiang Peian arrived at the set of "The Ghost Story 2", it was already around four o'clock in the afternoon.

Old Brown was working hard directing the crew to move things.

"Jiang, you are finally back. I thought you would not be able to catch up with the completion of "Ghost 2"."

Old Brown said happily after seeing Jiang Peian.

"It doesn't matter if I don't come when the filming is finished, as long as the movie progresses well."

Jiang Peian said hello to director Ning Hao and said to Old Brown with a smile.

"How can that be done? Although I don't deny Ning's talent, I can see his efforts.

But as the soul of "Ghost 2", if you don't come to participate in the ending of the movie, I always feel that something is missing."

Old Brown smiled.

"Mr. Brown, you have worked hard these days."

Jiang Peian thanked him.

Taking Jiang Pei'an's place as producer, Brown, who is in his seventies, is still running around on the set, which is indeed respectable.

"Actually, I haven't done much. I heard that you have become quite popular in your country.

To be honest, for work reasons, I hope you can stay at Lions Gate to film.

Even if your country does not recognize you, Lionsgate will always open its door and wait for you.

But in terms of personal feelings, I am very happy to see you grow, this is what I mean from the bottom of my heart."

Old Brown was wearing a decent suit and holding a cane in his hand, looking like an old gentleman.

"Mr. Brown, thank you for your friendship."

If nothing else, this old man is quite interesting.

From "Saw" to "The Haunted Man 2", he got along very well with Old Brown.

"Brother Jiang, you are back."

Yang Mi trotted over and said happily.

"Mimi, you have worked hard during this period of filming. It will be over in about a week."

Jiang Peian held up the schedule and said with a smile.

Of the remaining one week's scenes, almost two days were reshoots to check for gaps, and the remaining four days were Hu Jing's scenes.

"It's so fast. I quite like the atmosphere on the set."

Yang Mi said a little disappointed.

Jiang Peian smiled and said:

"Then you study hard and get admitted to your favorite acting major. Then you can film all day long."

Boss Yang is indeed a model worker.

At the age of fifteen, I can't even forget about the set.

"Producer Jiang is right, Mimi, you have to study hard after you go back, and you can't live up to everyone's expectations of you."

Yang Ma came over and touched Yang Mi’s head and said with a smile.

In fact, there is no need to wait for the future, Yang Mi will definitely have a lot of filming appointments after finishing filming "Ghost Story 2" this time.

Based on Jiang Pei'an's understanding of Yang's father and Yang's mother, they will definitely "urge" Yang Mi to take more roles.

Of course, Jiang Peian cannot say that this is absolutely wrong.

After all, the choice lies with parents.

…

"Okay, click, call it a day!"

After Ninghao shouted, the staff on the set immediately began to move the props.

Jiang Peian smiled slightly beside him.

Despite the language barrier, the migrant workers are still very sensitive to slogans about getting off work.

After this period of filming, Ninghao has lost some weight, but he is more energetic.

"Director Jiang."

Ninghao trotted to Jiang Peian's side.

"I just watched your directing performance from the sidelines. It was very good and you are making rapid progress."

Jiang Peian said with a smile.

Ninghao scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed:

"I will continue to study with you, Director Jiang."

"Tell me, how are you feeling lately?"

After hearing Jiang Peian's words, Ninghao straightened his expression and said:

"When Director Jiang was on the set, I felt very at ease while filming.

During the period when you returned to China, I basically only slept four hours a day.

Every day I’m thinking about how to shoot the next scene and how to achieve the final effect based on the storyboards.”

Having said this, Ninghao paused, the fatigue on his face clearly visible:

“The brain is in a state of tension and running at high speed all the time, which makes it very tiring.

Often a scene needs to be shot several times, and we try to shoot it several times from different angles.

It really exhausted the cameramen and actors, and I myself was exhausted."

Jiang Peian nodded. These are the most common questions for novice directors.

If you have no experience in taking charge of a "big scene" for the first time, you will be exhausted both mentally and physically.

"Fortunately, I got through it. If I think about it carefully, I learned a lot this time.

If I were asked to direct a drama again, I would definitely perform better than this time."

Ninghao clenched his fists and said enthusiastically.

"Keep this momentum and use foreign crews and excellent actors to practice.

Your starting point is already much higher than most of your peers.

As for the next movie, don’t worry, there will be one.”

Jiang Peian patted Ninghao on the shoulder and said with a smile.

…

In the evening, Jiang Peian just hung up the phone from Hu Jing.

The cooperation with Zhouyi Film and Television has been confirmed, and this girl is the heroine of "Love Through Time and Space".

As for the male lead, Jiang Pei'an didn't move, he was still Brother Shan Zheng.

Although there are many rumors about him in later generations, it has to be said that Brother Shan Zheng now has traffic.

Whenever I go out to buy groceries, my aunt will recognize him and point to my nose and ask if he is Zhu Bajie.

The crew of "Time Travel" will start filming soon, but Jiang Pei'an directly said hello and wanted to borrow Hu Jing over for a few days.

Jiang Xuerou immediately agreed readily.

This is the power of RMB!

Jiang Peian sat on a chair and wrote something.

It seems that "The Ghost Story 2" is about to be finished.

"Saw 2", which is close to being co-produced with Lionsgate, is also ready to be filmed.

Doesn't Ninghao want to make a second movie? "Saw 2" can also be left to him.

He can help Ninghao guard the situation for a while, and add his talent through these two movies.

He can basically grow into a qualified director.

These two series of movies can always be cooperated with Lionsgate.

For this kind of ghost-thriller movie, Lionsgate has its own unique audience and is experienced enough to have corresponding distribution channels.

Then the next step is to star in "Love Is Afterlife" and prepare to film "Source Code".
