Chapter 2: Small Gathering (1/3)
It was a very private dish, Lu Xiaoran got out of the car and pushed the door in.
The private room is large, luxuriously decorated, and it is steaming, with the smell of vegetables and smoke.
There are quite a few people.
Noticing Lu Xiaoran who pushed the door in, Huang Bo was the first to get up: "Yo, isn't this our happy son!"
Ning Hao: "I hugged the two of them!"
Lu Xiaoran smiled: "My name is Lianzhong two yuan!"
Several other people in the private room also stood up and congratulated Lu Xiaoran.
are all directors and actors of the orange family...
Yang Qing, Wu Ershan, Su Lun, and Wen Muye were all present.
This gathering can be regarded as a celebration of "A Good Show" - ten days after its release, the box office exceeded one billion, and it was a huge success!
You know, "A Good Show" is not an interesting movie, the first half hour is like a comedy, and the back is like a philosophy, telling the big truth, according to the company's forecast, the box office will be 5-800 million at most, making a small profit...
"A Good Show" has a lot of investment, and Brother Bo is a Virgo again, grinding a shot more than a dozen times...
It's time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Ten days have passed a billion, and Orange Ticket has given a prediction: 1.5 billion...
By the way, I also have the meaning of congratulating Lu Xiaoran, a few days ago, Lu Xiaoran had two more sons - twins.
accounted for a day's hot search, and all the Internet were congratulating Lu Xiaoran...
It's weird, no one said sugar candy donkey or anything...
......
"I thought you wouldn't come!"
“... Requested two hours. ”
"Still applying?"
Lu Xiaoran looked proud: "... My son can't live without me!"
Lu Xiaoran, who became a father for the first time, couldn't help but smile as long as she thought of her two sons, especially after just a few days, the two dolls seemed to start growing slowly, and a little face that was wrinkled and red when she was first born soon became white and tender, indescribably cute!
Ning Hao poured him half a glass of wine and raised his glass to bless: "There will be a few more years when you will be bored!"
“... Wouldn't it?"
"Three-year-olds and four-year-olds are a little annoying, five-year-olds and six-year-olds are old mischief, and seven-year-olds and eight-year-olds are disgusted!"
"When the time comes, the important thing for children is education..."
After chatting a few words, Lu Xiaoran picked up the wine glass and touched it with Brother Bo: "Congratulations to Brother Bo, the debut is a big seller!"
“... Haha, thank you..."
Brother Bo is also quite happy.
Although it is not the main purpose of his filming "A Good Show", he has made money and has a good reputation, which is still quite proud.
Let's talk about a little secret letter: Brother Bo has always felt that the director is nothing great, as long as the director is responsible for calling the card, the actor has to act hard, but in the end, he hangs the work of 'director so-and-so', why? Why should the director be awarded?
Then he was scolded by Andy Lau: Yes. I really think that the director is very important, how could Huang Bo say this?
Brother Bo used "A Good Show" to prove that the director is the same as an actor, anyone can do it, and there are very few people who can do it!
Good directors are hard to find, and good actors are even harder to find!
......
"The box office of "A Good Show" once again proves a theory!"
"What theory?"
"The main selling point of a movie is the content!"
In fact, when it was predicted before, Orange Ticketing came up with a box office forecast of 500 million based on online public opinion, and in fact, most of the people who bought tickets to the cinema would not be affected by public opinion.
Most of the audience is really a spiral of silence...
When they saw Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang, they subconsciously bought tickets - although there is no foil from "Love Cemetery", the blessing of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" is greater!
""White Snake" is not bad, I really didn't expect our animation company to be able to produce such a sophisticated picture!"
Lu Xiaoran shook her head: "... To be honest, I didn't expect it either, otherwise I would have changed gears!"
originally thought that "The Origin of the White Snake" would be at the level of 3-500 million, but now it seems that at least it is not weaker than "Big Fish and Begonia"...
It's a big loss!
actually followed "A Good Show", and it will be the National Day in ten days...
There are only ten days of living space!
At most, it can only get 600 to 800 million box office - this is a work that can break the order of one billion!
Lu Xiaoran was very annoyed.
Orange Animation is short of big-selling works right now.
Yang Qing suddenly asked, "I heard that you sold "Li Cha's Aunt" to Ahri Pictures?"
“... It's not for sale, it's for them to guarantee a minimum of 1.2 billion issuance, I think it's reliable, so I agreed!"
"They also seem to be National Day files?"
"Yes... That's the problem, we have already booked "Wushuang Prequel" on National Day, and now "Li Cha's Aunt" is here..."
"Can't you coordinate it?"
"I can't coordinate, Twist is very sure of the National Day file, and I'm not sure to give in..."
"Aren't you a major shareholder?"
"Don't forget it!" Lu Xiaoran smiled for a moment, and then explained: "I sold 40% of the equity, and now I can only be counted as the second shareholder..."
Major Twist Pictures is becoming more and more market-oriented.
Marketization itself is the reason why Lu Xiaoran decided to buy Twist Business in the first place, but he wants to operate Twist as an independent label, which is an organic part of Orange.
The problem now is that people don't want to just be the label of oranges, they want to operate independently.
Lu Xiaoran talked to them a few times, and then let go decisively - I'll let you fly, see how high you can fly!
However, in this transaction, Lu Xiaoran really made a profit!
When Lao Lu invested in Twist Pictures, he only spent less than 100 million, accounting for 75% of the controlling stake, and now the market value of Twist has risen more than 60 times, anyway, Ahri and Fuji Xun took over the shares in Lu Xiaoran's hands and paid 1.3 billion each...
......
"You've been off for a year, haven't you?"
“... No, I have continued to create, the script of "Knives Out 2" has been handed over to Orange Manufacturing, and they have found a new director..."
"That's... What is this project with you?"
Lu Xiaoran waved her hand indifferently: "It's okay, I have the copyright!"
Ning Hao: "Then when are you going to shoot your next movie?"
"Wait!"
Glancing at the people in the room, Lu Xiaoran told the truth: "I have lost my passion for making movies recently... Maybe a few years off!"
Yang Qing: "You're a famous fast gunner!"
"What fast gunslinger?"
"On average, two to three movies a year..."
Lu Xiaoran was quite aggrieved: "... Didn't you say that, prepare five to seven at a time, and then develop them one by one!"
The reputation of the old Lu Kuaigunner has spread all over the world...
Many directors take at least a year to make a film, and after filming, it will be released, and they will have to take a break for half a year and a year before they will consider the next one.
In the past, Ah Mou and Feng Pants maintained the speed of one film a year, and they were scolded by many people for creating garbage...
In the past few years, Lu Xiaoran has maintained the creative speed of three films per year.
The filming of "Knives Out" took less than 40 days, and it stunned the head of Warner...
There are also fast gunners in China, but most of them are small directors, and they don't have much climate.
Like Lu Xiaoran, three movies a year, each of which can guarantee a certain quality, is simply amazing!
