The market value of light was previously estimated at 20 billion, one percent, that is, more than 200 million.

Tsk, I really didn't expect that my agent would be a billionaire woman.

"Peng Peng, what are your plans next?" asked Li Shanshan curiously.

Peng Hui is different from other artists.

His itinerary was decided by himself before, so as an agent, even Li Xiaoping didn't know what he was going to do next.

"Sister Shanshan. Peng Hui thought about it and said helplessly: "I'm very busy next." ”

"Yes. Li Shanshan made a gesture of listening.

"I'm going to get into the planning of a new film. ”

"New movie?" Li Shanshan's eyes lit up and asked curiously, "Is there already a project?"

"Well, it's a project of China Film. Peng Hui explained with a smile: "That is, Da Liu's "The Wandering Earth". ”

"Wow!" Li Shanshan became more and more surprised: "That's a big IP!"

"Of course. Peng Hui smiled, but it seemed to have some deep meaning: "Although it is a big IP, no one has taken it until now." ”

"Why?" Li Shanshan asked in surprise, "Isn't there a director who is willing?"

"Of course there is, but Zhongying has never let go. ”

"Why is that?"

"There is a hard and fast standard for Zhongying. Peng Hui helplessly explained: "The box office of this film can hit the streets, but this film must be able to make money!"

"Shhh

Even if she has not been exposed to this aspect before, Li Shanshan also knows that in China, science fiction movies are not profitable.

Often hundreds of millions of investments are smashed, and I am afraid that the market will only return tens of millions.

Make hay?

It's pure fantasy.

"But China Film doesn't know the domestic market?" Li Shanshan was puzzled.

The domestic science fiction theme is very sluggish, and China Film, as the leader in the industry, doesn't you know?

"It's because you know that you need to set a benchmark. Peng Hui patiently explained.

"The Wandering Earth" is naturally a big IP.

But in recent years, the collapse of science fiction movies has led many people in the industry to take it for granted that science fiction movies are not suitable in China.

It even caused some banana people, that is, cents, to boast at one time.

What domestic movies are not suitable for science fiction themes, and what Hollywood is a bull fork!

Indeed, purely in terms of the film industry, Hollywood is indeed a well-deserved bull fork.

But it doesn't mean that everything abroad is good.

Sci-fi movies are also natural.

In such a situation, Zhongying naturally needs someone to stand up.

And before this project can proceed, there is a hard requirement.

This is not done for any purpose to control the copyright, nor because China Film does not want Da Liu's works to appear on the screen, but because only if the film can be ensured to make money, can the science fiction theme become popular in China!

Of course, before the movie is released, no one knows what kind of movie will be able to make money, which requires a benchmark.

Unfortunately, this benchmark did not appear.

This is also why many people in the industry are reluctant to touch this movie.

Peng Hui wants to make this film, not because of how good this IP is, nor because of what to carry the banner of science fiction, but because this script is very suitable for the development of Peng Hui's live-action universe.

What is the concept of Peng Hui's real-life universe?

Previously, Peng Hui also considered it.

own cinematic universe, what kind of theme should there be.

For example, Marvel's is the "Avengers".

It is the story of first defeat, and then counterattack.

This is the core, that's why some of those superheroes will die and some will leave.

Of course, this is also because many people are paid very well, and Marvel is reluctant to spend money after the contract expires.

But Peng Hui's universe is different.

In Peng Hui's understanding, his cinematic universe is a story about ordinary people in various scenes.

At the heart of this series is struggle.

Fight for the sake of hard work.

The beginning of this series originated from "Flash Girl", so this universe is about the universe of ordinary people.

There are no superheroes, and there is no money ability.

But such a universe needs a key point to connect the previous and the next!

The factor of this key point is science fiction!

Pure sci-fi!

So Peng Hui is bound to shoot a summarized science fiction film.

However, to be honest, he couldn't write the script of a science fiction film himself, after all, he was too young and had never been exposed to this aspect before.

But fortunately, there are also a number of literary works with science fiction themes in China.

Da Liu's works are naturally well-known.

The first target is naturally "The Three-Body Problem".

But it's a pity that the copyright owner of "The Three-Body Problem" ran away.

I can't find it even now.

It just so happened that the copyright of "The Wandering Earth" was about to expire, and China Film had no choice but to release rumors in the industry.

From just trying to make money at the beginning, it has become not being able to lose money.

In the end, after some competition, Peng Hui successfully impressed China Film with a script written by a sentence from the book "The Wandering Earth", and finally got the opportunity to shoot this project.

In fact, Peng Hui's own expectations for this movie are very simple, that is, the loser.

Yes, this movie is a derivative work to make Peng Hui's real-life universe complete.

It's different from "Living Together in Time and Space".

Domestic sci-fi films are deserts, but domestic romance films are fertile fields!

"To Youth" is the most typical example.

Moreover, Peng Hui and Yaya have good looks and acting skills, even if the construction period is a little rushed, but the quality of the script and director strength is there, so it will naturally not be too bad.

But "The Wandering Earth" is true, and no one knows how much the final box office will be.

I'm afraid that except for Peng Hui, who is willing to use this movie to pave the way for his own movie universe, no one else will be willing to pay too much for this movie.

Of course, winning the bid is easy, but it also hurts money.

The money that Peng Hui had earned so hard before was invested in this bottomless abyss again.

In fact, in the past two years, don't look at Peng Hui, he has made a lot of money.

But in fact, in the vast majority of cases, he only has hundreds of thousands in his hands.

This money, ordinary people, is nothing, it is definitely enough for you to eat and drink for a few years.

Some losers, half a year is enough.

But Peng Hui is the director!

Who has ever seen a movie with a budget of hundreds of thousands?

I'm afraid that only mobile movies and online movies can fight.

A well-known director, but only a few hundred thousand in his hands?

I'm afraid no one will believe this!

But Li Shanshan, who had just taken over Minghui Studio, helplessly found that Minghui Studio was an empty shell!

Yes, it's the leather bag company.

The accounts are very clear, and even the projects with hundreds of millions of dollars in their hands are held, but ......

It's just that there are only hundreds of thousands on the account.

made Li Shanshan think that Peng Hui was specifically laundering money for some people.

Later, when I heard Peng Hui's grievances, I understood the reason.

I can't help but sigh, why does Peng Hui have to act and sing again.

It's really ......

There's no money.
