Chapter 129: Movie Theory [Asking for a Subscription! Asking for a Monthly Pass!]

The results exploded, and Luo Yu was unprecedentedly happy.

Since Lin Haitang's incident a few years ago, she has been lying on her back, hoping to return to her former position, after all, she has discovered Gu Qiao.

is still in the top 10 of the best-selling list, and now it has rushed up again.

There are two Gu Qiao's songs in the top ten of the best-selling list, if it weren't for the fact that it has been online for too long, she feels that Gu Qiao can have three songs on the list at the same time.

On this list, there are only a few super-line ones who can suppress Gu Qiao.

Compared with Gu Qiao and them, there is still a certain gap.

However, if you can maintain this popularity, you will definitely have a chance to surpass them and reach the top of the best-selling list once.

Seeing that Gu Qiao's popularity was increasing day by day, she also raised her eyebrows in the circle of agents.

Although everyone still calls her an ace agent on the surface over the years, they don't take her seriously behind the scenes, after all, there is no super first-line artist in the entire entertainment industry.

That is, Luo Yu.

Luo Yu once brought out a super first-line artist.

But since Lin Haitang's incident, she left her previous agency, and then set up "Tianyu Entertainment" by herself, and then discovered Gu Qiao.

Luo Yu has always wanted to rely on Gu Qiao to raise his eyebrows.

Gu Qiao is also very competitive, and in just a few years, he has entered the ranks of the top line.

Now I'm singing another song with explosive results.

Luo Yu is actually quite beautiful in his heart.

In the past, in the circle of agents, when she met a few peers with similar qualifications in the past, she couldn't see everyone's eyes, so she was not very willing to participate in the activities of her peers in the circle.

I didn't mean to scream, I just wanted to tell everyone.

Luo Yu, the ace agent of the year, is about to come back.

Luo Yu was looking at the best-selling list of circle music, and suddenly found that a somewhat familiar song appeared on the new song list.

"Qiao'er, take a look at this song, is it from the Lu Ban movie. She asked hurriedly.

Gu Qiao walked over and took a look, it was the one that Lu Ban had sung to her, but the singer who posted it on the circle music this time was Gao Shan, and then there was a line of small words under the name of the song - movie interlude.

"Isn't that written?" Gu Qiao said.

Luo Yu was slightly stunned, and took a closer look before he found the following line of words: "I didn't look there either, what is Lu Ban doing singing at this time?"

"Maybe I want to be the first place. Gu Qiao thought for a while and replied.

"Fight for the first?"

Luo Yu was stunned for a moment: "Can his movies compete for the first place at the box office now?"

"Almost. Gu Qiao nodded.

Luo Yu froze, she didn't expect that a fifth-tier artist who had been trying to dig up but had not been dug up at the beginning was not only about to be promoted to a second-tier artist in just a few months, but also set up his own entertainment company, and the most important thing is that the first movie he made could compete for the first place at the box office during the Spring Festival.

Still underestimate him.

But with this song, he was able to rush the movie to the first place at the box office.

Suddenly.

Luo Yu raised his head abruptly and looked at Gu Qiao beside him.

Gu Qiao played with his mobile phone without changing his face, without the slightest abnormality.

Luo Yu always felt that something was wrong.

How did Gu Qiao know that Lu Ban was going to compete for the first place at the box office?

She took out her mobile phone and searched Gu Qiao's Weibo, and sure enough-

Gu Qiao reposted the song.

......

Gu Qiao's song turned out to be so popular, and this time Luo Yu raised his eyebrows again. Liu Dong was stunned for a long time.

In the past two days, he was also very depressed, he was called over by the big boss and reprimanded for a morning, although his nephew Huang Zhixuan was not dismissed, but he was no longer responsible for specific business.

He always thought he was very smart, but now that he thinks about what he did, it was similar to Huang Zhixuan.

"Uncle, what now?" Huang Zhixuan handed Liu Dong a cigarette.

Liu Dong took the cigarette, took the lighter from his pocket and lit it, and took a deep breath.

What can I do?

In this situation now, people don't come to take care of themselves, they have to thank God, Lu Ban and Gu Qiao are in the middle of their popularity, and there is no way at this time.

In the past, Lu Ban was just a fifth-tier artist, Gu Qiao and Luo Yu were newly established companies, and Liu Dong relied on Starlight Entertainment behind his back and a big tree to enjoy the shade.

Now Starlight Entertainment is not having a good time.

Starlight is just a second- or third-rate entertainment company, which cannot be compared with a real old entertainment company, and it can't withstand repeated tosses.

Huang Zhixuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Uncle, why don't you go find some black material and give Gu Qiao some stumbling blocks." ”

"You don't have a long memory of the last time we did this?"

Liu Dong glanced at his nephew, and didn't know why he would say such brainless words after suffering so many losses: "Have you forgotten Luo Yu and Lu Ban's methods, you dare to move Gu Qiao, and you don't think you have enough on your body?"

Huang Zhixuan said indifferently: "Last time, I was careless, this time I will clean it up and ensure that no one can find out." ”

"Clean?"

Liu Dong said solemnly: "The key is not to be clean, even if Luo Yu's status is not as good as before, but her connections in the entertainment industry are still there, and those who want to move her, I'm afraid that your little bit is not enough, you must not have such thoughts, otherwise not only will you be finished, but your uncle and I will also follow you." ”

If Gu Qiao really has black material.

Liu Dong will definitely not be soft, but Gu Qiao is not like a person in this circle, so he has no chance to start at all.

"What about Lu Ban?"

"Lu Ban...... Wait, I can't see through Lu Ban now, I always feel that he doesn't look like an artist who has just entered the entertainment industry, he is too familiar with the routines of the entertainment industry, and I am willing to bow down if I am familiar with it. ”

Liu Dong wanted to take revenge, but after going through so many things, he understood that if he was not absolutely sure, he could only hold his anger in his stomach.

Someday I'll catch the horse's feet.

......

Passerby A Pictures.

Lu Ban glanced at the Weibo on the computer screen, which was forwarded by Gu Qiao.

Lu Ban originally saw Gu Qiao's singing.

Only then did I remember that Dong Shi Xiaofeng asked Gao Shan to release this single, although this song is not a classic, but whether it is a song or lyrics, it is a good song.

There will be a little bit of heat.

And the box office of the movie is now close to the door, and there is hope for more popularity.

What's more, he knew that Kong Xi would definitely ask Gu Qiao for help.

Gu Qiao would definitely not refuse.

"I'm such a scheming. Lu Ban shook his head self-deprecatingly.

He is the only one in the company, everyone else has activities today, Kong Xi is not there, the young lady at the front desk and the financial aunt have not yet come to report, and Lu Ban does not even have anyone to talk to.

He thought about whether to call Liu Xin.

Let's see if we can dig out some leftovers.

It turned out that the phone was out of battery, and I rummaged through the drawer and found no charger, so I walked to Kong Xi's position outside to see if she had a spare charger there.

Then.

A man appeared outside the door and knocked on the door.

Knock knock~

Lu Ban glanced back, it was a white-bearded foreigner: "Eh, who are you looking for?"

Lu Ban speaks English.

The foreigner looked at him, it took him a lot of effort to find this place, but he didn't expect to see the person he was looking for as soon as he entered the door, and it was obvious that Lu Ban didn't know him: "Is this a passer-by A Pictures?"

He speaks Chinese.

Lu Ban smiled wryly, and after a long time, people could speak Chinese, so he said: "That's right, the sign says, but there is no one in the company today, if you have anything to do, you can come back next time." ”

"That's right, I have a script in my hand and want to sell it to a film and television company, do you think your company is interested?"

"Can I read the script?"

"This can't work, after all, my creativity can't be leaked, I can only show it to the person in charge of Passerby A Film and Television Company. ”

"I am. ”

"You are?"

"Well, that's right, you are a foreigner and may not know me, if you don't believe it, you can ask the property downstairs if I am the owner of this company. ”

The foreigner thought for a while and seemed to hesitate: "Okay, I believe you, can we go in and talk?"

"Absolutely. ”

Lu Ban smiled and welcomed the foreigner into the conference room.

The conference room was small, with a long table and a projection screen on the wall, on which there were projectors and computers.

I haven't used this conference room much since I moved here, and the only time I used it was when I was discussing the box office two days ago.

"Where's the script?" Lu Ban asked.

"In the USB flash drive, can I turn on the computer, I think I can use the projection device to show you. The foreigner said with a smile.

After Lu Ban signaled that there was no problem, he turned on the computer and projector.

After a while, his script appeared on the screen of the projector.

Lu Ban rubbed his chin with one hand and looked at it seriously.

It is about the not-too-distant future, with the deterioration of the earth's environment, human beings are facing the threat of not being able to survive.

At this time, scientists discovered a wormhole near Saturn in the solar system, through which it can break the limits of human capabilities and go to outer space to find opportunities to continue life.

An expedition team travels beyond the solar system through this wormhole, and their goal is to find a planet suitable for human settlements.

A typical Hollywood sci-fi script.

Lu Ban smiled.

"Sir, I think you're in the wrong place with this script, we can't make this kind of science fiction movie here. ”

"Why can't you shoot it?"

"A lot of reasons. ”

"No, I think you're running away from the problem, any movie can be made, a movie is a movie, as long as you put in the effort, you can definitely make it. ”

Lu Ban looked at him seriously.

I thought about it.

said: "I don't think I agree with you, a movie is not just a movie, in short, it is from the early script, shooting, to the later editing. To put it more complicated, it is a combination of literature, music, technology, and craftsmanship. ”

"From the perspective of historical and literary background, science fiction is not deeply rooted in the modern background of our place, and from the perspective of technology and craftsmanship, we can't do this. ”

The foreigner looked directly into the eyes of the landing class and said, "I admit that what you said makes sense, but if you give up because of these limitations, when will China be able to make a good movie?"

"Good movie?"

Lu Ban asked rhetorically: "Sir, what do you think is the definition of a good movie? The world view is grand, the special effects are awesome, the story is wonderful, and the idea is profound? I don't think it's either." ”

"Huh?" the foreigner was stunned.

"A good movie, no matter what the subject matter, no matter what the box office, as long as it can resonate with a certain type of specific group, it is a good movie. Lu Ban said directly.

"For example, I filmed it some time ago, although it was just a very simple story, but he aroused the memories of people of that era, and the people of that era resonated with it, and this is a good movie. ”

In the same way, science fiction makes films, and he resonates with people who are full of anxiety about the future. ”

"Resonance is infectious, when the resonance group base is large enough, it can definitely attract another group of audiences who do not have a strong sense of resonance, and the box office of such a movie will not be bad. ”

"But there is a kind of movie, its resonance group is only a small part of the people, so if from the box office, from the subject matter, from the production process, this kind of movie will definitely not be a good movie, but for that small number of people, this movie is worth remembering, in their hearts, this movie is the treasure of their life. ”

Lu Ban said for a long time in one breath.

Then paused, he didn't know if the foreigner in front of him could understand after saying so much.

"I suddenly felt that there was some truth in what you said. ”

The foreigner smiled: "But it's been a long time since I've seen the kind of movie you said that can only resonate with a small number of people." ”

Lu Ban raised his eyebrows: "I just wrote one, I don't know if you want to read it?"

"It's my pleasure. The foreigner spread his hands.

Lu Ban returned to his office, opened his notebook, connected it to the projector, and the screen appeared on the screen that he had not finished writing.

The foreigner looked at it seriously.

After a while.

The foreigner sighed.

"I have to admit that you are a genius director, no, I should say that you are a genius screenwriter. ”

The foreigner stood up and stretched out his hand: "It's nice to meet you, I'm the director, Eric Spo." ”

"I know. ”

Lu Ban smiled: "I recognized you from the first second you entered the door, but I didn't expect you to show me the script." ”

"That's the script for my next film. Spoo said seriously.

"I'm also showing you the script for my next movie. Lu Ban had a smile in his eyes.

The eyes of the two men collided.

At this time, the laptop pops up with news.

It just so happened that the laptop and the projector were still connected, so the news appeared directly on the screen of the projector.

It's today's box office stats.

Because of Lu Ban's song strategy and the guidance of Gu Qiao's Weibo topic, the box office increase did not decrease but increased.

However, it did not stabilize, and the box office growth fell a lot year-on-year.

One up and one down.

Reached the top!

No. 1 at the box office during the Spring Festival!

Eric Spoo knows he's lost this time, although the box office figures in China don't affect it

The status of global cinema, and in every sense of the word, it is better than that.

But as Lu Ban said, his films are only meant to reach a certain type of people.

That's what makes a good movie.

He stretched out his hand and shook it with Lu Ban.

He said very seriously and seriously: "The next movie, I will also release it with you." ”

Lu Ban also replied to him seriously: "In the next movie, I will make a movie for you to see, and we can also make a decent sci-fi blockbuster!"

......

Reaching the top of the box office surprised everyone.

But Lu Ban took it for granted.

Originally, he planned to fly to Changsha to see how the preparations were going after the box office came out.

But Kong Xi didn't let him go.

Because Kong Xi thinks-

At this time, should there be a big celebration party?
