Manipulated City Christmas Premiere,

Box office 750,000!

For Ding Cheng, it can be regarded as decent, and after CJ's indiscriminate bombardment, the box office of six or seven million is basically no problem.

Nine million is a threshold, and if you exceed it, you can rank in the top three of the year, and if you meet a special one, the minimum is also the top five.

collaborated with Lee Jae-hyun on three films, and the first two made a lot of money, which is not counting the Chinese box office, which is worthy of his media investment.

returned to the capital, celebrated the New Year for more than a month, accompanied his parents, and left the script to wait for the spring to bloom.

Summing up last year's harvest was quite big, and we continued to expand our influence in South Korea, regardless of whether the box office won awards, and the word of mouth is getting better and better.

Then I cooperated with Uncle Mi, although it was only a short two months to test the water, but it was also an in-depth understanding of the Bollywood industrial operation system, and the information sorted out contributed to a little bit.

Of course, I also received many invitations from domestic directors, but I didn't accept them, if it wasn't for the script, I wouldn't consider it in the future.

Returning to my hometown during the Spring Festival, the whole family is lively for the New Year, my parents are very satisfied with the current work rhythm, at least two or three months off every year, the money is already enough to live comfortably for the rest of my life, and my health is the most important.

When I came back from Koh Samui at the end of February, I was refreshed and ready to start work, and suddenly I received a script, which was actually an invitation from a French director?

A remake of City Hunter?

After reading the script, I directly called the movie to meet the director, which was so interesting!

When I saw Philippe Lashaw, a little-known little director, he was very excited to see Ding Cheng and said: "I just wanted to try my luck, but I didn't expect to see you?"

Ding Cheng was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile in fluent French: "Everything is arranged by fate, isn't it?"

Philip was surprised, he didn't expect Ding Cheng to speak French?

Motioning for the other party to sit down, Ding Cheng took out the script and asked, "Is the copyright okay?"

"Of course!" Philip said confidently, "The animated version of City Hunter has been airing since the 90s, and I'm one of the crazy fans!"

"It took five years to compile and send the synopsis, plan, and handwritten letter to Tsukasa Hojo's office. He was very good at adapting the script and gave me the authorization for the film directly. ”

Ding Cheng nodded secretly, so that he has a bottom in his heart, he is afraid that the original adaptation will be imaginative, and after completely letting go of himself, fans will definitely scold the street.

I also grew up watching city hunters, and the deepest impression was Cheng Long's movie adaptation, which was also popular in Southeast Asia at that time, creating a box office myth.

"Rest assured, I can guarantee absolute fidelity to the original style!"

Philip explains: "It was on top of this that we combined the worldview of cinema with the humor of our country, and implemented it with action comedies, even referencing more modern action comedies such as 'Ace Agent.'" ”

"Because you are the most appealing actor at the box office in China, this comic has a high popularity base in Southeast Asia, and in order to fight for more box office, I would like to ask you to play the leading role. ”

"And ......" Philip suddenly hesitated, "The investment is very tight, can you get paid?"

Ding Cheng waved his hand, he had long known that it was a small cost, and said directly: "You can get paid to buy shares!"

"That's great!" Philip didn't expect the cooperation to be so smooth, and said excitedly: "The specific details can be discussed, everything is ready, when will we start filming?"

Are you waiting for me?

Ding Cheng smiled helplessly, made an appointment to meet in France a week later, sent Philip away, and told Su Yao: "Try to fight for shares and overseas shares, it's a big deal for us to bring capital into the group!"

Su Yao was stunned, it was rare to see an old cadre attach so much importance to a small cost, and asked curiously: "You are so confident?"

"The fact that the script can be approved by Tsukasa Hojo is worth the investment in itself. Ding Cheng analyzed: "For so many years, there has only been one overseas adaptation of Cheng Long's version, as one of the indispensable memories of 8090's childhood, its popularity definitely has great potential." ”

"What's more, the director is a Frenchman!"

"As long as Tsukasa Hojo is not old and confused, and dares to play so big with his golden signboard, the script must be outstanding. ”

Su Yao nodded, so that's the case, the old cadres have always had a vicious vision, and they have never lost money in their investments, and now they have money in their hands, and they eat as much as they have shares!

Seeing Yao Zai leaving, Ding Cheng picked up the script again, the reason why he chose it was that investing and making money was just a small purpose.

Working with a French director for the first time, I finally had the opportunity to understand the process of the European film industry, after all, the cultural aesthetics of the two countries are very different, and if you rashly did not choose the right entry point......

The director is not stupid, since he dares to gamble on his entire net worth, it shows that City Hunter has a very popular base in France, and as a senior fan, the script can be recognized by the original author who is nitpicking, which has explained a lot of problems.

This work has a deep mass base in China, Japan and South Korea, and the great success of Cheng Long's version fully proves this, needless to say in Huaxia and South Korea, as long as it is played by himself, it is too late for Yu Fatzi and Lee Jae-hyun to be happy.

On the contrary, it is an island country, and I am worried that I have no chance to test the water, and someone will send a pillow when I am sleepy?

Cooperate with French directors to test the aesthetics of film audiences in island countries,

A good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

Carefully studying the script, there are many surprising adaptations, such as the meat joke that is extremely faithful to the original work of Tsukasa Hojo...... The blend of action and comedy is well measured...... The laughter is dense enough......

I have to say that the director definitely has a talent for funny!

The more I watch, the more I look forward to it, after debuting for so many years, I have never acted in a comedy!

There are not only stalks of "City Hunter", but also easter eggs of other manga works, "Ranma 1/2", "Saint Seiya", "Hokuto God Fist", "Football Player", ......

There's so much to see by yourself.

The news that Su Yao brought back was even more surprising, and she only got ten percent of the shares for her salary?

"The investment in this film is 20 million euros!"

Su Yao said with a depressed face: "The French are very shrewd, and they won't give in, if we can't handle the overseas issuance of China and South Korea, we won't be able to get this share!"

Ding Cheng was also drunk, 20 million euros, exchanged for at least 200 million yuan investment......

What do you call this a small cost?

Are France so tyrants now?

Forget it, the big investment shows that the director is confident that money is secondary, and the main thing is to find an entry point to see what kind of virtue the French audience is?

flew to Paris, and the director couldn't bear the power of the flood for a long time, so he started filming the next day without saying a word.

met other actors for the first time, and as a director, Ding Cheng quickly won everyone's favor with his fluent French, and sighed that he deserved to be the eleventh gold actor.

began to set makeup, whether it was hairstyle or clothing, 100% faithful to the original, he played a private detective named Nikki Larson, a little famous but uninhibited, especially when he saw beautiful women, it was ......

The heroine Laura is her own agent, and her brother was a partner in life and death, and the two depended on each other after their deaths.

looks like a man's wife, but in fact, she has a crush on herself for a long time, but she doesn't dare to express it.

The plot begins with a mysterious client who finds himself in order to prevent the love perfume invented by his deceased father from falling into the hands of terrorists and asks to get rid of all the people who came to snatch the perfume.

Because it's not an ordinary perfume, anyone who smells it will fall madly in love with someone who sprays perfume.

Hang Erlang must have questioned the power of perfume, but the client sprayed the perfume directly on his hand and then approached his nose......

The most unfortunate thing is that the perfume and antidote were snatched by another mercenary, mammoth, in order not to let himself not be bent, how to recapture the perfume and antidote within 48 hours?

The crazy funny journey begins!
