Chapter 47: The Great Wall (part 2 of 5)
The time is 2015, and there are still three years before Mr. Cui goes crazy...
In fact, Mr. Cui's madness is just an incident, and he has so much energy that the market value of most of the entertainment industry has evaporated by half!
The most important thing is the attitude of the Securities Regulatory Commission: no cross-border investment in film and television or games...
How to replenish cash flow when the time comes?
Do you want to invest in a project that is sure to make a profit, and then get rid of it later?
After thinking about it, Lao Tzu is already a major shareholder of ByteDance, and he is still afraid of an egg!
The young lady dancing will bring enough cash flow to the oranges!
......
Lu Xiaoran's interview was indeed on CCTV news, and "News Network" only intercepted a short paragraph, and the full version will appear in "News Live Room".
The focus is on two things: the new film is about the theme of abduction, filmmakers have to bear the corresponding social responsibility, and the sentence 'movies can't take shortcuts, once you take shortcuts, you will find that shortcuts become the only way'...
There is no problem with the previous one, Lu Xiaoran is willing to shoot the theme of abduction, which is his own willingness!
People are not satisfied with making money!
In the words of netizens, 'just in the realm, I will throw off Feng Xiaogang dozens of streets'
Feng Xiaogang's resentment can break through the sky...
The latter sentence can't be recognized by some 'netizens', because "There is a Place Only We Know" is not bad at the box office, and many 'fans' are very satisfied: a movie that is fully English, even if you don't read the subtitles, you can understand all the English lines...
"Do you know how hard we work?"
"This is XX's first play, can't you be more tolerant?"
This kind of slapstick operation makes people want to laugh, Lu Xiaoran didn't publicly say anyone's name, aren't you throwing yourself into the net?
As for what he said about the Oscars...
No one cared, probably thinking he was being humble.
In fact, if Lu Xiaoran really wants to win the Oscar, it is not impossible to make a foreign language film, "La La Land" is in front of him...
Forget it, Lu Xiaoran's goal is to retire before the age of 35 and go home to take care of the children!
I'm not interested in challenging these anymore...
After returning to the company, a group of people discussed the upcoming Spring Festival stalls, not worried about the box office of "Detective Chinatown", but estimating how much box office this movie can get...
There are many works in the Spring Festival file, "Heavenly General", "Wolf Totem", "Zhong Kui Fu Demon", "Macau Fengyun 2"...
are all big productions - the production cost of "Macau Fengyun 2" is said to be as high as 150 million...
But in the eyes of Orange, they are all younger brothers!
"Detective Chinatown" is a big commercial film with an obvious trend towards the New Year, Lu Xiaoran is very popular, and there are hundreds of millions of votes, which is recognized as the head work!
Lu Xiaoran debuted until now, except for "Lone Agent" losing to "Let the Bullets Fly" at the box office, he has not failed to compete in the same schedule.
"I think 2 billion is fine!"
"Wouldn't it be too high, this is a suspenseful movie..."
"No, this year's schedule is very good, there will be a "Jupiter Ascending" and "Cinderella" in the whole March, almost two months of space!"
"Xiaoran, what do you think?"
Lu Xiaoran was looking through the film schedule, and when she saw the name of "Wolf Warrior", her eyes lit up: "Yo, "Wolf Warrior" will be released on April 2..."
"Well, the box office of this movie is expected to be 200 million at most, and the cost is barely recovered..."
"You underestimate Wu Jing too much..."Lu Xiaoran pondered for a while, and then asked, "Can you advance a week in advance?"
"You mean to avoid Fast & Furious 7?"
"But on March 27 there was "Ace Agent"..."
“... Eh, let's arrange it like this..."
In fact, Lao Lu has confidence in "Wolf Warrior", and "Ace Agent" is not a big problem...
In fact, if you study the film schedule, you will know that the original time and space "Wolf Warrior" won 230 million in the first week, and the total box office did not reach 600 million, the main reason is that "Fast and Furious 7" was released...
"Furious 7" is simply a bug, with a box office of 350 million on the first day...
"Let's have seven movies in the first half of this year, "Ten Cold", "Tang Detective", "Let's Get Married", "Wolf Warrior", "International Market", "Flying Fish Suit", "Big Man 3", will it be too dense?"
"No... The number of screens is 30,000 now, what is the concept of 30,000 screens? Theoretically, the highest box office in a day is 900 million..."
"Then why are there two movies scheduled for the summer vacation?"
"Raiders of the Lost Ark 3", "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage", "Fast Attack 2"... Who made you reluctant to invest in newcomers? This year's box office target is 10 billion..."
"You haven't said anything about the box office expectations of Detective Chinatown?"
“... Do I have the final say? If I do, it's 3 billion!"
A bunch of people shut up, three billion?
Why don't you say 5 billion?
Lu Xiaoran just casually said that the goal of 3 billion is a bit illusory - if you want to make the box office 3 billion, the box office in the first seven days must be at least 2 billion...
Last year's Spring Festival stalls didn't have a single one, but this year is different, "Heavenly General", "Wolf Totem", and "Macau Fengyun 2" are all quite good-looking projects...
Here, Mr. Lu had a simple meeting in the company, and Tangtang was suddenly visited by Da Tiantian...
......
The project "The Great Wall" has been released in 12 years, and the story outline is "The Great Wall Fights Monsters", co-produced by China and the United States, with an investment of 100 million...
But no one knows the specific content, until December last year, Orange Manufacturing announced that Wen Ziren, the director of "The Great Wall", was about to officially start filming...
Starry came interested.
Let's just say it more clearly, Da Tiantian or Wanda is interested!
Since Da Tiantian's debut, the actors she has worked with, from my Uncle Long to Zhen Dan and Zhou Yunfa, it is obvious that these few people are no longer enough for her coffee position!
The so-called fight against monsters is escalating, she should now enter Hollywood!
In fact, with Wanda's resources, it is not impossible for the entire Da Tian Tian Hollywood Movie Universe to be, but she needs a springboard, and she can't be the heroine as soon as she comes up, that would be too abrupt!
Sino-US co-production is a good choice.
Wanda is the same, she also wants to use Sino-US co-production as a springboard, in fact, they also want to make a "The Great Wall", who made the name have been registered in advance...
Then co-develop...
This is Wanda's idea, Da Tiantian is very simple, and just wants to understand the plot of "The Great Wall" in advance.
"I don't know the specific news of this play, I only know that the production cost will not be less than 100 million US dollars, the director is Wen Ziren, the producer is Xiaoran, if you want to know more information, you can ask Xiaoran!"
Sugar Candy replied helplessly...
Uh, after returning from the United States, Da Tian Tian is not the first actress to find her and want to go through her back door...
Now, many people think of "The Great Wall" as a second "Gravity"...
Lu Xiaoran's drama has been promoted to an international A-level director, and Tangtang's coffee position and forced style have also been improved several times...
Her treatment is the same as Lu Xiaoran, and she is automatically excluded from the flower sequence - too perverted to compare!
There is only one reason: the global box office performance of "Gravity" is 900 million US dollars!
Da Tiantian was helpless: "I can't contact him... The number he gave me was the broker's number..."
"Don't worry, their company will hold an annual meeting in the afternoon, and I will take you to participate!"
