Yi Qiao accompanied Shen Ming to leave the Cocoa Bean Animation Company.

"Now Guoman's situation is very bad!"

“… Know!"

"Wind Whispering Spell", "Yesterday's Blue Sky", including "White Snake" are all popular!

"Yesterday's Blue Sky" is still a project under the color bar house...

Yi Qiao couldn't help but ask: "Are you so optimistic about the movie "Nezha"?"

Shen Ming nodded, and made no secret of his appreciation for "Nezha": "Well, I think the plot and story are set up very well, and the box office of 500 million is not a problem!"

Yi Qiao smiled: "The Great Boss King will definitely be very happy to hear what you said." ”

"Da Lao Wang is still too anxious, animation movies take a long time, there is no precipitation of three or five years, with our current animation industry level, we can't produce good animation movies!"

The big boss is Wang Changtian, the big boss of the color bar house...

Last year, he pulled Shen Ming into the color bar house.

Guangxian Media doesn't dare to throw money anymore...

It's true!

In the past, don't say 40 million, it is 400 million, Lao Wang smashed it up, without blinking an eye, isn't this a special situation, the entire film and television industry is in a cold winter, everyone is tightening their belts to live, and Shen Ming is rich...

"Okay, I'll tell him, by the way, I haven't congratulated you yet, Jumanji is a big hit at the box office!"

"Haha... Thank you!"

……

In fact, Dumplings is already a well-known animation director.

The famous work "Hit, Hit a Big Watermelon" has won numerous awards, and even won the Special Jury Award in the International Competition Unit of the Berlin International Short Film Festival...

Even so, Gyoza struggled when trying to create a new animated feature.

When looking for investments, the main concern for almost all investors is "how to recover costs?"

With a three-to-five-year production cycle, how do you make sure that the project will be successful when it launches on the market?

What does capital love the most?

Short, flat and fast!

3 months of shooting, 3 months of production, quickly put into the market circle for quick money, and can also be made into a series one by one!

For example, "Zhuxian 1" and the later "Zhuxian 2" and "Zhuxian 3"...

Many investors are not investing in movies with "product thinking", but "marketing thinking".

The criterion for their investment in movies is not how good the quality is, whether it looks good or not, and whether it is popular with the audience, but whether there are traffic stars, topicality, and hype These superficial "selling points".

And they don't understand movies, and they don't understand anime movies.

Instead of rushing to smash on uncertain projects, it is better to throw money at traffic, at least to earn money from fans.

You like "Nezha", it takes five years to make it...

In five years, where is the money spent, not to be earned, and why invest in an anime movie with an uncertain future?

Lao Tzu used it to buy Moutai stocks, don't buy too much, buy 10,000 shares, and in five years, you will directly become a billionaire!

Investing in anime?

Fools invest!

Shen Ming is different from them, he is a creator himself, and in just a few minutes, he can see that the team of "Nezha" is very reliable.

Besides, when the time comes, I won't believe that it will be sold for less than 300 million...

Sell it for 300 million, and it will return to its original cost!

……

Investing in an anime movie is not a big deal for Shen Ming.

At most, it's a daily vignette.

After returning to the capital, he stayed for less than two days, and Damien Chazelle urged Shen Ming to go to the United States quickly...

"La La Land" has been screened in an expanded manner!

And the box office is very good, stable at more than $1.2 million in a single day, and it can explode on the weekend, getting about $2 million...

"Jumanji" broke $400 million at the North American box office, and "La La Land" was a hot relay...

Shen Ming is now red and purple!

A coffee level!

The so-called A coffee refers to the $20 million club!

Oscar winners can only be respected at best, but superstars are more valuable.

Generally speaking, for a commercial production, the actor must be the second male lead, and the real male number one is usually those A coffees.

Of course, like Xiao Lizi, he belongs to the super A level - his current salary is the highest in Hollywood, $25 million...

This salary refers to the salary of a single episode of the movie, not the salary income of "Avengers 3" like Downey, and Downey finally got a salary of $75 million - plus dividends, of course!

But Shen Ming now has the confidence to ask for the dividends of "Jumanji".

The basic salary of the next film is at least 20 million US dollars, and the dividend is at least 8% of the world, which is the bottom line of the agent, and it is still under negotiation, and the final result is not far from ten...

And Shen Ming himself relies on his acting skills to win the world!

After the release of "La La Land", the word of mouth exploded directly!

"La La Land has brought people back to the golden age of Hollywood!"

"Movies are the art of dreaming, and song and dance films also have this attribute, unlike other types of movies, song and dance play a greater role in the film, "La La Land" is like a dream!"

A bunch of media frantically praised "La La Land", which blew up the critics, and "The Hollywood Reporter" said directly: This is the best film of the year!

Moreover, since the beginning of the awards season, "La La Land" has swept all the way, Damien Chazelle and Emma Stone have won more than 20 awards, Shen Ming is a little embarrassed, most of the things he got are nominations...

However, "Jumanji" + "La La Land" directly opened up his situation in North America, and several super A productions have found him, and they are all male leads...

It's a pity that he didn't have time to read the script...

And for him, the Chinese market is the home base.

……

I have to admit that Hollywood A coffee is universal all over the world!

As of the 21st, the global box office of "Jumanji" officially exceeded $1.1 billion, temporarily ranking fifth in the global box office in 2018, second to "The Incredibles 2", "Jurassic World 2", "Black Panther" and "Avengers 3"...

In other words, the top four are all superhero movies or sequels, and "Jumanji" is the only non-sequel.

And it is the lowest production cost among the top five box office - $85 million!

In the top ten, only "Bohemian Rhapsody" costs less than "Jumanji"...

The latter cost $52 million in exchange for 700 million box office...

This Nima is hard to find!

"Operation Red Sea" ranked twelfth, almost 800 million yuan short of "Bohemian Rhapsody" in tenth...

In other words, following 2017's "District 9", Shen Ming once again entered the top ten of the year, and his appeal no longer needs to be questioned!

If the "Lethal Weapon" series is a box office hit, Shen Ming's achievements will inevitably surpass Uncle Long, who was based in Hollywood with the two series of "Shanghai Noon" and "Rush Hour".

With such a coffee seat, Universal of course did its best to help arrange the Hollywood China Theater as the location for the North American premiere of "The Wandering Earth", and specially invited director James Cameron, director Christopher Nolan and director Spielberg...

Of course, Shen Ming is not ready to be released in the United States - he is not stupid, "The Wandering Earth" obviously does not conform to the logic of Lao Mei, and the box office will definitely not be too high!

Flowers bloom outside the wall, fragrant inside the wall?

How can it be!
