Chapter 294: Shen Teng who came and went
On August 24, 2021, the movie "Wulin Gaiden" was released for two weeks, and the box office successfully exceeded 1 billion.
Although the box office has fallen to more than 10 million per day, it still has some spare strength, and in the remaining two weeks, it can almost win another 2~300 million box office.
The summer season is coming to an end, and the big and small movies have basically seen the future, and the third place in the movie "Wulin Gaiden" is completely stable.
At the same time, the movie "After" was officially drawn, with a total box office of more than 1.51 billion yuan, which made the filmmaker happily hold a celebration banquet.
I don't know who came up with the idea, but the celebration banquet also handed Zuo Le an invitation.
It may be that the original intention of the producer of "After" was good intentions, but the box office of "After" stabilized the movie "Wulin Gaiden", and now the celebration party also handed Zuo Le an invitation, no matter how you look at it, it is a bit ridiculous.
Regardless of whether it is the belly of a villain or not, Zuo Le ignored the invitation of the crew of "After".
Sure enough, it was a deliberate encounter.
Seeing that Zuo Le didn't come, there was a producer on the "After that" film who said a piece of soup on the neck, and the big entertainment media immediately followed up when they saw the excitement and didn't go idle, and actively explained the causes and consequences to the people who eat melons.
After the producer spoke, Shanhe remained silent until August 27.
Mingyan, who has just been promoted to vice president of Sunward and is still the head of the film and television production department, "inadvertently" expressed his views on this matter at a Dongshan film and television industry event.
"I don't know what some crews think, the project with an investment of more than 100 million yuan has only earned more than 300 million, or is it a few points, so it's embarrassing to hold a celebration party?
At the beginning, we made more than a billion yuan in a drama "Bright Sword", but the chairman invited a few of our senior executives and the main creators of the crew to get together.
In the words of our chairman, with the money for the celebration, it is really ......... to give some red envelopes to the crew and employees."
Although he didn't name him, in the current limelight, no one can see that this is a naked contempt for the producer of "After".
After the news came out, some people felt that Shanhe was domineering, so he should slap those who pretended to be forced in the face, and made some money that was not enough for them to make money.
Some people also said that mountains and rivers are sour, and they envy the high box office of "After", and the dead duck has a hard mouth.
But soon someone with good deeds helped to calculate the account and slapped him in the face.
"After" invested more than 100 million yuan, with a box office of 1.51 billion yuan, and the producer took 30% of the box office share, deducting taxes and costs, and the net profit was almost 370 million.
And the 370 million, a total of 4 points, the two leading entertainment companies, almost 250 million, and the remaining 120 million, to an investment institution and an individual financier.
As for the "Wulin Gaiden" movie, based on the estimated minimum box office of 1.2 billion, after deducting taxes and costs, the profit that Shanhe can get is about 320 million.
Half of the cost, get a similar profit, and no one else shares, completely eat alone.
Regardless of which of the two is stronger or weaker, the statement of the box office of "After" is definitely not valid.
After the news of this happened, some people who had underwatched the movie "Wulin Gaiden" stopped saying goodbye.
If the TV series still fights for ratings, the price of the TV series is relatively not the point.
Then commercial films, box office and profits are king.
"Wulin Gaiden" is not bad at the box office, and the profits are even more eye-catching.
All factions in the film industry have also begun to face up to Shanhe, a peer who came from the TV circle to get food.
Someone is indifferent.
There are people who are on the alert.
Someone is ready to move.
The filmmaker of "After", which had a huge momentum and held a celebration banquet, has become half a joke in the circle from the stars holding the moon two days ago.
The filmmakers of "After" feel very aggrieved, obviously we are the box office runner-up in this year's summer file and the first box office of domestic films, how come in a blink of an eye, the limelight was robbed by mountains and rivers.
The producer who proposed to send invitations to Zuo Le and make trouble up and down almost didn't die of complaint.
You said that you are idle and have nothing to do, what can you do, you can't make a fuss if you eat chicken.........
.........
A small turmoil, even Zuo Le settled it without coming forward.
Zuo Le's heart was unwavering.
To tell the truth, the two sides are not at the same level at all, if it weren't for Shanhe's new entry into the film industry, the foundation is unstable, and the other party would not even be qualified to touch porcelain.
With Zuo Le's current status, the person who can let him go out in person must be at least a well-known person in the industry.
What can make him cautious is either the industry bigwig, or the official organization, or the person or platform with greater influence in China.
The crew of "After", Sensei said that it was just a producer, that is, he pulled the boss behind him in, and Zuo Le was too lazy to take care of it.
This is not Zuo Lemad, he doesn't dare to be crazy, his own family knows about it, where is he going?
Boss Xu next door has begun to harden the golden rooster and pull the pole to hold a film festival by himself, he has just finished making his film debut, and he hasn't even won the summer championship.
However, Zuo Le was not discouraged and took his time.
Now it is less than 800,000 words, and the future is still long, sooner or later, one day in the future, I can also shake three times as soon as I stomp my feet in the entertainment industry, and all female artists cry and shout to the point of calling Dad Zuo.
However, before that, the first thing Zuo Le had to do was to make his second movie well.
Thinking of this, Zuo Le took out his mobile phone and called Cao Jie, the director of the brokerage department.
"Hey, Sister Cao, how is Shen Teng doing.........
.........
At the same time, at the door of a restaurant in Beijing
Shen Teng parked his car, ignored the hot weather outside, and got out of the car with a peaked cap, sunglasses and a mask.
The hotel he went to, the specifications were neither high nor low, it was considered mid-range, Shen Teng was quite familiar with this, and he went straight to a box on the second floor when he entered the door.
When I opened the door, there were already seven or eight people sitting in the box, both men and women, and everyone was stunned when they saw Shen Teng, and then they were surprised.
"Old Shen. ”
"Brother Fuji. ”
"Li Fanda!"
The last sound was called by the waiter in the private room after Shen Teng took off his mask and sunglasses, the little girl covered her mouth with one hand excitedly, and the kettle in the other hand almost poured on the bald head in front of her.
Shen Teng skillfully pulled the waiter, and at the cost of taking a group photo, asked the little girl to help keep him secret.
When the waiter who was excited to see the star for the first time was coaxed away, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Shen Teng's forehead.
The bald head who almost turned into boiling water just now said with envy: "Brother Teng is so hot now, everyone knows the waiter for a meal." ”
"That's what I said. ”
A short-haired girl answered: "My brother Teng is a celebrity now, and the ratings of the just-finished "College Student Story 2" are more or less, by the way, 2.17%.
is such a popular drama, Brother Teng is the first protagonist, I remember that the hot search has been listed several times, and he deserves to be a big star. ”
The folds on Shen Teng's face burst into laughter, but he shouted in his mouth: "I tell you, don't shiver me, make fun of me and let me go." ”
"Okay, I'm not kidding you, but you, a big star, can't show it to us old friends. The oldest middle-aged man in glasses said with a smile.
"I know I'm going to bleed, yes, I've invited this meal today, and singing for a while is also mine. ”
Shen Teng complained, but the smile on his face was very bright.
These people here are all his old friends, and when everyone co-founded the [Sad Tofu Brain] Drama Troupe, several people supported each other for several years, and they had nothing to say about their good feelings.
Later, the [Sad Tofu Brain] Repertory Troupe was disbanded, and everyone went their separate ways, and some people hadn't seen each other for several years.
Now that the old friends are reunited, let alone making a few jokes, even if the trouble is too much, Shen Teng is enough to choke and be angry.
.........
Shen Teng drove from Jinmen City to attend an event there, and he could have come on time, but he was delayed and came the latest.
So he arrived, and the people at this party were also directly gathered, and the middle-aged man with glasses called the waiter and began to walk the dishes, obviously the head of the crowd.
In fact, this middle-aged man with glasses was the head of the [Sad Tofu Brain] Repertory Troupe, and now although the Repertory Troupe is disbanded, everyone is still used to taking him as the leader.
Friends get together, eat and chat, and it's lively.
Shen Teng, the best-developed star among the crowd, has also become the center of the topic of the party.
Those who can get together to play drama are basically masters who love art and performance.
After the disbandment of the [Sad Tofu Brain] Repertory Troupe, except for a few people who changed careers, almost all of the rest are still in the entertainment industry, but now the direction of development is different, and the career performance is also good and bad.
It is precisely because of this that Shen Teng is so highly praised, and most of the people have the psychology of looking for Shen Teng to pull themselves in the future.
Of course, everyone is good friends, and they really can't give up this face even if they stammer, but the words are nice.
Shen Teng also knew in his heart, and he also took care of the emotions of his old friends in and out of his words, and vaguely said that if there was a suitable opportunity, he would definitely not forget their group of old friends.
It's Shen Teng's true words, since he didn't graduate from college, he mixed with this group of people, from zero to something, and made [Sad Tofu Brain] little by little.
At that time, they were still young, and they didn't have these mature and sophisticated ideas in their hearts, and most of them were pure.
What career prospects, tickets and houses are floating clouds, and what supports them to move forward is a simple dream of drama art.
In those years, they cried together, laughed together, shared weal and woe, and the accumulated feelings were particularly deep and strong.
Shen Teng is not a lone character, if he really has a chance, he will definitely help and pull his old friends.
Everyone was very happy with Shen Teng's promise, the atmosphere of the banquet was even more enthusiastic, and everyone also talked about their recent situation.
This one just joined an online drama crew, the one who got an interview for a certain movie, and those who applied for a full-time screenwriter for an entertainment company, and those who worked as assistants in a certain performance program.
Each has its own way, although some of them are not very good, but at least they can have something to eat.
Anyway, everyone was one of the core members of [Sad Tofu Brain] at the beginning, and they had some real skills in their hands.
As he spoke, the bald head asked Shen Teng: "Brother Teng, what kind of drama have you had recently, your Shanhe Company is fragrant, any starring actor, and it is worth more than the male and male two of the ordinary crew outside." ”
It's all his own people, and Shen Teng didn't hide it: "For the time being, I really don't have any drama in my hands, and our company has set a total of four plays in the second half of the year."
I have played roles in the two series of "Six Groups of Serious Cases" and "Family with Children", and there is no business for me, and the characters of "Baolian Lantern" are full.
Director Kong's "Mansion Gate" said that I would play a role, but there are not many scenes, and it is a big late, and it is estimated that I may not be able to join the group until next year.
My only hope now is that Director Xue should get a new project in the second half of the year, and I will see if I can get a starring role, if not, I have to go outside to take over the play. ”
"Good boy. ”
The bald head was a little surprised: "I see that you are very popular, then Li Fanda and my daughter-in-law, who don't like to watch TV, know it, why can't you even receive a drama in Shanhe?"
Shen Teng smiled bitterly: "I'm still popular, but others in the company are even more popular, do you think the ratings of "College Student Story 2" broke 2 good."
The actual results are the bottom of many dramas produced by our company, and my image is not good-looking, so the role naturally can't steal others. ”
It can be seen that Shen Teng's words have been held back in his heart for a long time, and his tone is obviously with loss and slight anxiety.
In fact, it is understandable that when they first joined the company, they belonged to him for the best development, but over the past year, he himself has not changed much, and Cen Kun and Guo Jinfei behind him are a bit of a catch-up posture.
The former has Lu Jiaju in "The Great Dyeing Workshop" and Zhu Houzhao in "Dragon and Phoenix".
The latter is even more powerful, "Big Dyeing Workshop" Zhao Dongchu, "Seven Swords 2" Bai Sha, "College Student Story 2" Lin Dachong, three consecutive hit dramas, the momentum is amazing.
If it weren't for Shen Teng's continuation of his life because of Li Fanda, the most popular Li in "College Student Story 2", it is estimated that he has been surpassed by Guo Jinfei now.
"Large companies have good resources, and the pressure of competition is also great, and I accidentally overtake the top, I have a big heart, and I can hold it well, but my agent is worried, less than 30 years old, and half of my hair is bald. Shen Teng took a sip of wine and said with emotion.
Shen Teng's words also made everyone present a little concerned.
They are poor, although they are trying their best to climb up, but in essence, their mentality is quite stable, after all, they can enjoy the happiness when they climb up, and there is nothing to lose if they can't climb up.
But when Shen Teng climbs to a certain position like this, his mentality is more troubled by gains and losses, and while he wants to continue to climb up, he has to maintain his position to prevent others from squeezing him down.
Under all kinds of pressure, life may not be more comfortable than that of them.
Everyone was silent, Shen Teng's mobile phone rang suddenly, he glanced at the caller ID, and immediately signaled everyone to be quiet.
"I'm my boss. ”
Everyone was immediately silent, Shen Teng connected the phone, and Cao Jie's capable voice came out of the microphone.
"I don't care what you're doing, go back to Quancheng immediately, the chairman intends to let you be the male protagonist of his next movie, if you miss the opportunity, don't blame me for not fighting for you. ”
As soon as the words fell, before everyone could react, Shen Tengti took his things and ran out, ran a few steps and turned back.
"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, boss, you pay for the meal first, I'll send you a red envelope when I turn around, I'm sorry, this time I swept everyone's fun, next time I'll treat you to make amends." ”
After speaking, Shen Teng left in a hurry, leaving everyone stunned to look at the half-open box door before they reacted.
The short-haired girl who teased Shen Teng before picked up the wine glass on the table, took a sip, and said hatefully.
"The old lady is a ghost, she even pitied this bastard just now, damn, it makes people laugh to death when she says it, I actually sympathize with the male protagonist of Zuo Le's new movie?"
The others didn't speak, just silently raised their glasses.
The bitter wine enters the throat, but the taste is full of sourness.........
