Chapter 178: Boot and Troubles (3/5)
None of the giants that can stand in the entertainment industry for 20 years is simple.
In fact, in any industry, if you can start from scratch and make the company the top of the industry, their helmsmen are not general!
That's how Huang Zhongjun is!
Don't look at him as if he only collects art, a few years ago, he was really bold!
"The King of Kung Fu - Monster Stick", of course, is a bad movie, you can't imagine that Cheng Long + Li Lianjie appeared together, and actually contributed a piece of!
You just let Cheng Long and Li Lianjie fight in the ring, Liu Yifei and Li Bingbing are responsible for raising the cards, and then shoot for two hours, I don't think the movie will be so bad!
Whenever I mention bad movies and loss rankings, I will have my share.
In fact, people didn't lose a dime at all, but made a lot of money.
The 500 million production of "The King of Kung Fu" is blown out!
First of all, Cheng Long and Li jointly established a "J*J Film and Television Company", and the two each bought shares with a salary of $10 million.
Huayi invested about $40 million...
Then, the North American copyright was sold for 25 million US dollars, and the Southeast Asian copyright received 8 million US dollars, plus South Korea, Japanese benzene, Europe...
The mainland box office is 170 million...
This movie is definitely making money!
......
The dinner was over.
are all people with status, and many of them are dragged with their families, and they don't engage in any extracurricular activities.
Chen Zhixi insisted on calling and calling a few cars to deliver them one by one.
Out of the private room, goodbye to each other, Liu Jiang and Lu Xiaoran went downstairs together...
"Director, you seem to have something on your mind?"
“... I have two scripts in hand, and I'm looking for investors..."
"Give it to me!"
"Do you have time to watch?"
“... Of course. ”
"Okay, then you wait until I finish the script, and then I'll come back to you!"
So, Orange Imaging brought the pony Bento to co-produce "The Good Times of the Daughter-in-law" and "Before Dawn"...
This is a later story, so I won't show it for the time being.
......
On the 30th, "The Age of Fruit Marriage" was launched.
The filming location is in Beijing Jindi Green Town, where the real estate developer promised benefits, not only did not spend a dime, but also provided 4 million sponsorships.
On the day of the start-up, a group of people gathered around, all of whom came to see Lu Xiaoran.
Half an hour later, a bunch of media got moving...
Xiao Luzi is too popular...
There is only one actor in the circle who can play with good looks and good directing ability like him!
"Rescue Mr. Wu" directly pushed him to the level of the first person born in the 80s.
I want to keep a low profile, so "Fruit Wedding Era" didn't have any start-up press conference, anyway, Mango Channel has already booked the first round of exclusive broadcasts...
Chen Zhixi couldn't bear it anymore and ran into the lounge: "Xiaoran, you better go for a while!"
“... How many media outlets?"
"A lot, Sina, Tencent, NetEase are almost all here!"
“... Where did they get the news?"
"On the Internet, brother, you don't know how popular you are now, you know that you have opened a new play, and a bunch of people are clamoring to come over to visit the class!"
“... I'll go out and have a look!"
Lu Xiaoran got up, only took two steps, thought of something, and explained to Chen Zhixi: "You make a statement, in my name, saying that fans are not welcome to visit the class, it will affect the official filming of the crew..."
"Also, let them prepare red envelopes, it's not easy for these reporters to come here..."
Chen Zhixi nodded.
She is now half of Lu Xiaoran's agent, and many things are handed over to her to take care of...
Lu Xiaoran first came to the interview area set up by the crew, and a bunch of media and reporters had already crowded the room...
Liu Jiang saw that Lu Xiaoran seemed to have seen a savior, and quickly gave up his position...
Lu Xiaoran smiled slightly, and asked directly, "Where did you all receive the news?"
"Breaking the news on the Internet!"
“... Gotcha, I'm really red now, I'm sorry everyone, when I leave, don't forget the little gift prepared by our crew!"
The reporters at the bottom immediately lost their previous aggressive attitude...
"Our play is called "Fruit Marriage Era", "Fruit Marriage" is the word they mentioned when I chatted with friends last year, and I thought the word "Fruit Marriage" was interesting at that time, so I returned to Beijing and found a few younger screenwriters to ponder the script together... As for me, I'm not very good at this kind of family drama, so I asked Director Liu Jiang to help control the direction, and Director Liu Jiang liked our script very much, so he came..."
"We are confident that this drama will be liked by many people!"
"Xiaoran, you are already a film director of the 100 million yuan club, why do you still act in a TV series?"
Generally speaking, people like Lu Xiaoran who have made small achievements in movies don't bother to act in TV series, let's say: Go all out to prepare for the big screen, that's what it means.
In a general sense, movies are more noble than TV series!
Lu Xiaoran's expression remained unchanged, and she replied with a smile: "... I love this story, and you don't always look down on TV dramas, what's wrong with TV series? There is no difference between movies and TV series in essence, they are all for the pleasure of the audience!"
""Rescue Mr. Wu" won the Golden Horse Award for Best Editing, and was also nominated for Best Supporting Actor and Best Actor, why don't you go to the scene?"
"I didn't have time, I was busy with propaganda at the time, and I haven't applied for a cross-strait pass yet, it's too troublesome!"
"And when is your next movie going to start?"
“... In the middle of the year, you'll have to give me a little rest, too!"
"Is the heroine of this play also Tangtang?"
"Hmm. ”
"Why do you have to play against her, don't you have any plans to develop separately?"
“... She's suitable, I'm just Tong Jiaqian written in her way!"
At this point, the media has almost asked questions, and the rest is some topics to talk about feelings.
For example, "If You Are the Truth, Do Not Disturb" has a box office of more than 250 million, what do you think...
What can you think?
Lu Xiaoran knows this thing very well!
Zhang Jin made oranges, bought 50,000 tickets for the movie "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" in one go, and then tried to advertise in office buildings and universities, and in a week, it was sold out...
is enough to prove the popularity of "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb"!
At this stage, oranges are pressed projects, buy tickets from movie theaters at group purchase prices in advance, and then sell them online*** The normal price of general movie theaters is one or two yuan lower, and what you earn is the difference...
The ticket for "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" is finished, and I am ready to do "Crazy Racing"...
At the beginning stage, let's keep a low profile, after all, there is not much money to spend.
"Feng's comedy is already a signboard, Feng Xiaogang + Ge You has a strong box office appeal, I am optimistic that "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" will surpass "Red Cliff" (above)..."
"What about Racing?"
"Ning Hao's directing skills far surpass me, and the box office of "Racing" can definitely break 100 million!"
After chatting for almost an hour, Lu Xiaoran smiled: "Let's stop here today, we still have to shoot, by the way, please help publicize it, fans are not welcome to visit the class when we shoot..."
When the media left, everyone received the carriage and horse fees prepared by the crew, which was not much, about 600 yuan per person.
But it's also a heart!
