In 2006, Lu Xiaoran's first starring TV series "Struggle" had not yet been broadcast, and Xiao Lu Zi was just a little promising actor at that time.

Then met Li Ming, who gave him the opportunity to direct his first film "Border Storm"...

Of course, Li Ming is trying to win over Ning Hao, but under Lu Xiaoran's memory filter, he just values Lu Xiaoran's talent!

5 million was not a small amount at the time, you must know that "Crazy Stone" only cost 3 million!

Relying on this 5 million, Xiao Luzi fired the first shot of entrepreneurship, and then he was out of control, and in 12 years, he became the first person in the Chinese film industry in the mainland - why the mainland, because there are always people on the Internet who use Li An to press him, after all, Li An has won two Oscars!

The last time I dealt with ponies was when Li Ming passed away four years ago, Lu Xiaoran took over the Xishan Club, and wanted to release "Taiping Wheel" with a guarantee, but was rejected...

Then there is the news that "Taiping Wheel" was released, and the pony lost hundreds of millions.

"Why did it go out of business?"

"A bunch of things, I guess you won't be interested!"

This is a typical case of a family-style business, the founder died suddenly, the inheritance and governance of the family business is a big problem, and the development of political and business is not clear, share holding, family civil strife, chairman of the board of directors, senior executives, and investment institutions are not good enough.

The most terrible thing is the aggressive investment agreement, the start-up company to introduce investment...

The gambling failed, bankruptcy and liquidation, and the shares in the hands of Li Li and Li Ping were auctioned for 115 million - this is 69% of the shares!

At that time, Huayi proposed a 5.4 billion merger and acquisition of Xiaoma, including after Li Ming's death, Chinese Culture proposed to take over Xiaoma, and the rest of the shareholders left the market, with a valuation of 3.6 billion yuan, but Jianyin Culture and other shareholders offered a psychological price of 4.2 billion yuan valuation, and the shareholders had their own thoughts, and finally did not accept the new bid of Chinese Culture.

Other executives have also introduced Wasu Media's merger and acquisition of Xiaoma, with a valuation of 3 billion, and some industrial funds in Hebei and Hubei have also come to talk about investment, but in the end they have not succeeded - the reason for the failure of the investment, on the one hand, the shareholders of Xiaoma are unwilling to compromise on valuation, on the other hand, the company's shareholding structure is chaotic, and the decision-makers are not unanimous, which also discourages investors.

"Alas... Hong Kong's Golden Harvest, New Arts City, United America's United States, MGM, and Raiden Hua have all disappeared in the long river of history, and the new line was famous with the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, and now it has also been acquired by Warner!"

Lu Xiaoran sighed: "Maybe one day the orange industry will go bankrupt!"

"Don't say such frustrating words..."

Lu Xiaoran suddenly remembered something: "Sister Zhong, Xiaoma was merged, so who is in the hands of the copyright of my previous movie?"

“... Don't worry, your movie, no one will dare to remake it without your consent!"

"Why don't we buy it?"

Zhong Lifang: "If you want to buy it, it's more than 115 million!"

It's also...

......

Lu Xiaoran keenly felt that the word 'heavy industry' was mentioned repeatedly!

What 'Di Renjie's Four Heavenly Kings, a new model of domestic heavy industry films', including last year's "Three Lives and Three Worlds", "The Legend of Shark Pearl", this year's Spring Festival file "Journey to the West, Daughter Country", "Monster Hunt 2" The main keywords in the promotion have the three words heavy industry...

Can heavy industry ensure that movies sell well?

How can it be?

The industrialization of film quickly made up for the shortcomings of technology and provided an opportunity for film to overtake in corners, but after all, film is not a single commodity, and at a deeper level, film is still an art...

At the end of the day, it's all about telling a good story.

These people, first IP adaptation, and then heavy industry films...

Can't you be a little in awe of movies?

Movies were originally words with rich elements, but as soon as the word heavy industry was put into use, it was confined to a very narrow semantics and became vulnerable.

And this kind of widely disseminated and gradually popularized popular language will gradually mislead the audience's perception of the movie. People's understanding of movies will become quite vague, and it will become more and more unclear what exactly is the focus of watching a movie?

Excessive publicity or consumption of "heavy industry films" will naturally squeeze out the living space of other types of films, and the development of the entire market is deformed, with seedlings of the same soil half drowning and half drying up, and there is a strange phenomenon that drought and flood do not guarantee harvest.

And heavy industry films basically herald high investment...

According to Lu Xiaoran's benchmark, there are no 400 million special effects, are you embarrassed to call yourself a heavy industry movie?

In fact, the blockbuster movies are always good movies, and they don't make a difference because of whether they are heavy or light or handmade...

......

Tavern, Ning Hao and Huang Bo.

"Crazy Stone" can be called the best entrepreneurial team in Chinese films after 2,000 years!

It's a pity that Xu Guangtou flew alone, and Liu Tao didn't have much contact with this group of people since 18 years...

Lu Xiaoran flipped through "Crazy Aliens" and frowned: "Your script is a bit too much..."

"Non-mainstream?"

"Yes!"

It's a word to describe the Crazy Alien thief!

Ning Hao sighed: "What I want to show is a person who is outdated, a person who has been eliminated, and a person who has been thrown behind by the times." ”

“... Okay, you shoot!"

Having said that, what else can Lu Xiaoran say?

Ning Hao has been busy with the "Moon" series in the past few years, and helped Orange successfully drum up another series.

He has his own aesthetics, and if he wants to make an absurd comedy, Lu Xiaoran will still support it!

In fact, the core of the three "Crazy" is all "mistakes", all small people do big things by mistake, "Stone" drops the stone and jade, "Racing" drops the ashes and drugs, and "Aliens" drops the monkey and aliens.

"When will it be filmed?"

"It's the middle of the year... I'm going to use Lao Huang + Shen Teng!"

"I'm okay with that... When?"

“... Let's go summer next year. ”

"Yes, you can talk to the production team, determine the release time, and they can arrange publicity..."

"I know..."

"Alien" came to an end, and Huang Bo suddenly said: "Lao Lu, my "A Good Show" is being filmed!"

"..."A Good Show"?"

"Just the Rhapsody I told you about earlier!"

Only then did Lu Xiaoran react: "Are you going to be a director?"

“... Yes, after holding it for so many years, I still want to try it myself!"

“... Okay, come, let's congratulate Lao Huang in advance... No, it should be called Director Huang!"

"Alright," Huang Bo waved his hand, and then said, "Do you remember what you said before?"

Lu Xiaoran thought about it seriously and finally remembered that about more than 500 chapters ago, he promised Huang Bo that if he became a director one day, Lu Xiaoran would play a role for free!

So, he said directly: "No problem, you need it, I'll show up immediately, let's say, how many scenes?"

"You can just make a cameo..."
