Chapter 122: Digging the Foot of the Wall in Face (Asking for Subscription!)
It's almost the New Year, and at the end of the year, no matter which industry is busy.
Although there is nothing to do, Li Qian still has to deal with everything before he can celebrate the New Year with peace of mind.
When I came to the studio in the morning, I happened to meet Deng Chaolai to sign a contract, and it was confirmed that he would play the leading role in "127 Hours".
"Boss!"
"Boss!"
Seeing Li Qian coming, several people greeted each other, and they were all quite happy when it was almost the New Year, with smiles on their faces.
This person shouted as a loud man, and Deng Chao also said hello as if he had entered the underworld.
"Director Li. ”
Li Qian smiled and asked, "When will you all go back for the New Year?"
Qi Yukun replied, "It's nothing, the day after tomorrow, come back after the New Year, and "Jaws: Revenge" will start again." ”
Guo Fan also said, "I almost have to go back, "127 Hours" will take some time to start filming, and it will take time to understand the characters and scripts thoroughly." ”
Zhang Zhonghua, Gao Yang, and Wang Lu are all about to return to their hometowns on the twenty-ninth day of the New Year.
"Then I will wish everyone a happy New Year in advance, this is my little heart, everyone accepts it. ”
Li Qian said and took out a few red envelopes and handed them over, he had been busy all this time, and he didn't have time to give them bonuses or anything.
It's the New Year, and any company has year-end bonuses, bonuses, or something, and everyone is not polite, and they all accept it.
"Okay, I'll see you in the next year. ”
There was nothing to do, Li Qian left the studio and went to a nearby hotel to participate in the celebration press conference of the box office of "Life and Death Frequency", and Deng Chao also followed.
On the way, Deng Chao casually asked, "Director Li, are you going back to Hongzhou for the New Year?"
"Go back, I have to go back for the New Year. ”
Li Qian said, "By the way, Brother Chao, where is your hometown, you can get together when you have time for the New Year." ”
"My hometown Nanfeng, I want to go back for the New Year, but I should stay in Hongzhou for a few days. ”
"Then come out for a meal, Brother Tai moved to Lushan, I don't know if I will return to Hongzhou for the New Year. ”
"By the way, how about in Huayang now, I heard that you are going to play a new version of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer"?".
Deng Chao's contract with the Oriental Pearl has expired, and he is officially signed under Huayang, which is still the studio of Fei Lin and Zhong Shuai, and it is also the group with the strongest and strongest connections under Huayang.
Otherwise, he would not have snatched the role of Zhao Erdou, the second male in "Assembly Number", from Wang Xiaoming.
Although this role has Huang Zhongjun's acquiescence, they also have to fight for it themselves, otherwise the rules of equal competition would have been broken when it was originally said that there would be a special team of the four major studios.
Huayang Media, the most capable is the second studio managed by Fei Lin and Zhong Shuai, the three main actors of "The Assembly" Zhang Hanyu and Deng Chao, Yuan Wenkang who plays Wang Jincun, the heroine Tang Yan, and Wang Baoqiang are all from the second studio, covering almost all the roles of "The Assembly".
"Well, it's decided, and there are some other characters who are pulling off. ”
Deng Chao nodded, this year's Jin Yong martial arts drama is a ratings guarantee and topic guarantee, but Deng Chao is not very happy when he gets this role.
In fact, compared with "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", what he wants more is "The Legend of Deer and Ding", this kind of ruffian role is more suitable for him than Zhang Wuji.
Originally, last year was already nine out of ten, but Wang Xiaoming was cut off.
Competing with each other and grabbing back and forth is also the daily life within Huayang Media.
And in addition to the two movies "Li Mi's Conjecture" and "Love Call Transfer 2", which have been negotiated for a long time, Huayang only gave two insignificant TV series male leads, and there was no movie role.
offended Ma Xiaogang, he is not familiar with Chen Guochang, and there are Zhang Hanyu, Wang Baoqiang, and Su Youpeng competing in the same studio, and he won't be able to get any good roles in Huayang for a while and a half.
There are too many people, there are not enough points at all, and I joined halfway.
When he really joined Huayang, Deng Chao found that it was not as good as he originally imagined.
However, fortunately, there is Li Qian's "Frequency of Life and Death", the tied actor with a box office of more than 100 million, which is heavier than the second male lead in "Assembly Number", after all, Ma Xiaogang and Zhang Hanyu are the focus of this movie.
Holding Li Qian's thigh has become the top priority of the Deng Dynasty, after all, there is still a relationship with fellow villagers, and he has a natural advantage over others.
Otherwise, with his current leading actor in a movie with a box office of over 100 million, he would not have taken over "127 Hours", a movie with a monotonous plot and a pitiful investment.
Moreover, the impression that Guo Fan left on Deng Chao is not very reliable, but he has a hand in patting on the back.
Poor Guo Fan, I didn't expect that before the movie started, the actor would arrange himself as a director like this.
......
Not long after, the two came to the hotel banquet hall, and Zhang Hanyu and Yuan Quan had also arrived.
There were a lot of people who came to this celebration press conference, but the time for the press conference was almost up, so I said hello, and then brought a few actors to the conference hall next door.
Inside, the media and some lucky viewers are also waiting.
The host of the celebration press conference is still Xie Yan at the last premiere, and he admires his own host.
"Greetings to distinguished guests, media and audiences!"
"In this cold winter, the touching father-son affection in "Frequency of Life and Death" has brought us a touch of warmth, and it is everyone's fiery passion that has created the box office myth of "Frequency of Life and Death......"
After a long opening remarks, Xie Yan chatted with Li Qian about his feelings, and then opened the big red floor-to-ceiling curtains behind him.
A large poster with a large string of numbers in the middle is revealed.
100101640!
On the screen behind it, accompanied by the scenes of the movie, the audience applause from a movie theater, constantly skipping the number and the time to reach this number.
The box office of the zero point field, the box office on the first day, broke 50 million, broke 80 million, and finally fixed at 100.1 million.
listed them one by one, and everyone felt that the 100.1 million was not only a simple number, but also a height that ordinary people could not reach.
Moreover, starting from the box office of 1.9 million screenings, along with one number after another, it slowly accumulated to 100 million, and it feels that this number is so real.
"Frequency of Life and Death" is such a box office of 100 million accumulated step by step, and it is indeed worthy of this box office, which is the idea in everyone's head.
Then Wang Changtian, as the second largest investor and issuer, also sighed.
The hotel brought an ice sculpture 50 or 60 centimeters high, carved into the shape of 100.1 million.
Everyone has a small hammer in one hand, and as the host Xie Yan shouts "start", knock it down at the same time!
Holding the microphone and looking at everyone in the audience, Li Qian didn't have time to sigh, so he raised the microphone and spoke.
"First of all, thank you all for coming to this celebration, in fact, this is a way for us creators to show off, and we have to let people know about it if we get a box office of 100 million!"
At the beginning, he laughed at himself, but in the ears of interested reporters, it became a satire on some of the media who had scolded Li Qian before for not knowing the sky and being arrogant, as well as Ma Xiaogang, who scolded him.
Li Qian Li Qian, sure enough, people are as good as their name!
The celebration banquet is here to show off and pretend to be forced, but everyone is still rushing to see people pretending to be forced.
There's no way, I love to watch the successful people pretend to be forced, and no one goes to the street to invite people to see it.
......
"This film is the result of the joint efforts of nearly 100 people in our entire crew, and most of the things are done by them, I just shouted "click" behind the monitor"
......
When asked about becoming a director of 100 million yuan and being the youngest member of the 100 million yuan box office club, Li Qian also became humble.
"This 100 million box office doesn't prove how amazing I am, it only proves that all of us have paid off for more than half a year's hard work, and we have made a movie that the audience loves!"
......
"I'm actually not nervous at all, I know from the first day that people like my work, and I haven't paid attention to the box office numbers since then, just to look at it every day before promoting it to make myself more motivated!"
If you don't pay attention to the box office, you can't move your mouth at every turn.....
The reporters secretly slandered in their hearts, this Li Qian looked quite modest on the surface, but after thinking about it a little, isn't this just pretending.
What else can't a box office of 100 million prove how great it is, isn't this just a way to say that you are amazing.
I've never paid attention to the box office, and anyone will say that I never cared about money, and I didn't even look at it when I was paid.
......
The press conference lasted more than two hours and answered many questions from reporters and audiences.
Including Zhang Hanyu and Deng Chao, they all have a few minutes more or less.
When asked about the next movie, Li Qian just smiled mysteriously, "The new movie is being conceived, and everyone should be able to see it this year." ”
Hearing the news of the new movie, the reporters immediately came to their senses.
But no matter how they asked, Li Qian didn't reveal a word, which made their hearts itch.
After sending off the media, Li Qian returned to the banquet hall next to him.
After sending off the reporters, everyone returned to the banquet hall again!
"Director Li is here. ”
"Congratulations to Director Li for breaking 100 million at the box office. ”
"Director Li is really young and promising. ”
"It's really embarrassing to make a movie with a box office of over 100 million at such a young age. ”
"Thank you for coming to the show, thank you. ”
Li Qian said hello one by one, although most people didn't know each other.
Along the way, I thanked everyone for their blessings.
No matter what kind of banquet, it is for people to communicate, and there are many people in the whole hall.
"Congratulations to Director Li, the youngest director at the box office of 100 million yuan!"
Although "Frequency of Life and Death" only brought more than 6 million profits to Guangxian, the successful release of this movie also proves Guangxian's ability in publicity, and when other companies look for distributors in the future, Guangxian will not be uncompetitive.
Moreover, a film with a box office of more than 100 million yuan has a close relationship with the theaters and theaters in major cities across the country, which are all intangible wealth that can be converted into money in the future.
Wang Changtian took the initiative to salute Li Qian with a red face.
Li Qian smiled and clinked glasses with him. "Thanks to Wang Dong's help. ”
And Huang Zhongjun, Yu Dong, and Li Ming, the CEOs of film and television companies, also came over.
It's like a high-end bureau.
There are not a few directors with a box office of 100 million yuan in the country, and they are also worthy of this pomp.
What's more, as far as they know, Li Qian did not sign a director's contract with Guangxian, that is an ordinary cooperative relationship, and they may not have the opportunity to get a piece of the pie.
Especially in the future, Li Qian will definitely make a big production, which is what every famous director must do after that.
Why did Cheng Kaige shoot "Wuji", he wanted to make a blockbuster, and Ma Xiaogang filmed "Night Banquet" the same.
Chen Kexin's previously carefully created song and dance film "If Love" has a good reputation, but it was defeated by the big bad movie "Wuji" in the same period.
If you want to make a big production, then you have the opportunity to get involved, after all, big productions will not invest alone.
Even Zhang Yimou's films, "Golden Armor" has four other investors, and Ma Xiaogang's "Assembly" also has five investors in addition to Huayang.
Suddenly, Yu Dong asked, "By the way, Director Li, I heard that your "Jaws" is going to make a sequel?"
"That's right," Li Qian nodded, this is not a secret matter.
"That should be released in the summer, is it this year?"
"It should be in time for this year's summer file. ”
Yu Dong smiled, ""Red Cliff" was released in the summer of this year, and with the sensation caused by "Jaws" last year, it can be operated as a commercial blockbuster. ”
As soon as the words fell, Huang Zhongjun answered, "What Yu Dong said, "Red Cliff" also has your investment, and it's not good to participate in "Jaws" again, it just so happens that our Huayang will not have a movie released in the summer next year, if Director Li doesn't mind, I can help a little." ”
The two of them dug the foot of the wall in front of themselves, and Wang Changtian couldn't help but turn dark.
Li Qian didn't agree, but just said that the New Year was approaching, and he would talk about it after the New Year.
......
After the banquet, Wang Changtian first pulled Li Qian and said about the box office, now that the movie is about to be drawn, it will be almost divided in about a month, indicating that he will call Li Qian as soon as possible to show his sincerity.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Changtian couldn't bear the expectations in his heart, and asked him about the preparation of his new movie.
"I had an idea. ”
Li Qian did not sell Guan Zi this time, and said the name of the movie in Wang Changtian's expectation.
Wang Changtian's expression immediately changed from expectation to bewilderment, what is the title of this film?
Wonderful Book House
