Chapter Eighty-Six: Making a Black Comedy

"It's the first time I've heard of people who don't want to make money!"

Lin Shumiao opened his mouth very abruptly, and Zhang Junsheng smiled indifferently: "Hehe, I'm not short of money!"

I originally wanted to be sarcastic, but after thinking about it, forget it, what kind of person Lin Shumiao is, who here doesn't know? I need you to remind me? What does it have to do with you, everyone here is a person who wants to have a face, so it's better not to pretend to be forced!

At this stage, most of the investors in the film and television industry are some coal mine owners, so do you say that the money of these people comes from a clean background?

The film and television industry itself has a money laundering function!

Otherwise, do you think that hot money will flow to the entertainment industry?

"Junsheng, your "A Chinese Ghost Story" is selling very well, I heard that it is almost 200 million?"

Liu Shaohong opened his mouth, which was not only a compliment, but also a hint of interruption.

Zhang Junsheng nodded: "Yes, the results are not bad." ”

"I still have to make blockbusters, the box office barley in recent years has been blockbusters!"

"However, the most scolded is also a blockbuster!"

"Scolding and scolding, they will still enter the theater to watch the movie!"

“… The market is too small, and it is a bit of a fantasy to expect the mainland market to recoup a large part of the investment..."

Zhang Junsheng fished out a piece of roast goose, chewed it, and opened his mouth...

Yes, this is the consensus of all filmmakers in the circle - the mainland film market is too small to supply a blockbuster!

So, you can only count on foreign copyrights!

However, the copyright of other cities is recognized, and without the blessing of those familiar stars, the copyright cannot be sold at all.

So, the outrageous worth of those stars...

"Joke again, who doesn't know that your movie sold more than 70 million US dollars in the United States, and it is about to break 100 million!"

The third master was very 'dissatisfied' and corrected...

"No matter how well it sells in the United States, it has nothing to do with me, the contract we signed at the beginning, the box office in Greater China belongs to us, and the rest of the income is theirs!"

After a pause, Zhang Junsheng seemed to be very remorseful: "If I knew that I could sell it globally, I would definitely not give up my overseas share." ”

……

"This year's box office champion is probably your "A Chinese Ghost Story"..."

"Transformers, 280 million!"

“… You work hard, just surpass it!"

“… It's 80 million, it's too hard..."

At this stage, it is not advisable to expect to extend the screening cycle to harvest the box office - piracy is too powerful, a few days ago, Zhou Xing told him that he saw discs sold at the door of the cinema of the roadshow, including "A Chinese Ghost Story"!

These gang of pirated copies, blatantly!

He said this, Zhang Junsheng believed it, when the original time and space "Yangtze River No. 7" was released, the gang of toys sold also went to the door of the cinema to set up stalls, and the "Qizai" dolls were all unauthorized...

"It's up to man!"

The third master glanced at Zhang Junsheng and confirmed that he wanted Yuehua to brush the box office...

If this year's domestic film box office surpasses Hollywood, the book of the annual KPI of the General Administration will look very good!

“… We'll keep spreading the word about this!"

If the box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" can reach 260 million, Zhang Junsheng doesn't mind doing something to make it surpass "Transformers"...

The General Administration has monetary rewards for films that are very box office extraordinary, and this part of the reward is enough to make up for the cost of brushing the box office...

Almost 30 million, if it costs more than 30 million, Zhang Junsheng may not do it...

Of course, the third master understands what Zhang Junsheng means, but "A Chinese Ghost Story" has become a phenomenon unabated, and there are no blockbusters released after that, and it is basically stable...

Smiling and raising a glass, Zhang Junsheng picked up the teacup, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

It's all about work!

Lin Shumiao glanced at Li Xiaowan, and the latter spoke: "Junsheng, does Xu Yan have a schedule?"

"I don't know about this, her schedule is managed by the agent, and I never interfere in the artist's agency project!"

After a pause, Zhang Junsheng said: "However, as far as I know, she shouldn't have any schedule, Universal wants to shoot "The Mummy 3", and she may be looking for her, and the two sequels of "A Chinese Ghost Story" will start immediately..."

Hehe, what kind of person is Lin Shumiao, Zhang Junsheng knows it clearly, commonly known as a donor, that is, a pimp!

This person started a bit like Wei Zhongxian, and many sentences in the West that describe interpersonal relationships will involve one point: respect for boundaries. However, in the Chinese people, as soon as the boundaries are respected, it will be like severing the relationship between two people.

The big guy's trick is to take care of the other party as a baby, worship the gods, and at the same time, he seems to have no scheming.

It is said that she started her family in Shanxi in the west of the year is this trick, her first pot of gold came from railway transportation, in the early years in order to get the railway wagon in her hometown in Shanxi * West, there was no connection Lin boss to the railway department to find a relationship, but the other party saw that she was from the countryside and did not care. The big guy didn't give up, he simply squatted at the door of the leader's house, and when the door was not closed, she went in and took out the leader's socks, sheets, underwear, shirts, and coats to wash, and finally moved the leader and got the wagon...

Of course, his method is also applicable to giant babies, if the other party has a sense of boundaries, her nanny-style practices will cause disgust.

Wei Zhongxian did the same back then, nine thousand years old does not have a super brain, his secret is to take care of everything, and by the way, worship the other party as a god.

Therefore, so many people want to send a girl, only Lin Shusapling has become!

It seems that she is playing Xu Yan's idea.

How could Zhang Junsheng agree!

The development of Lin Shumiao made many people see this way, so they did a girl group, organized various games, and sent girls to the boss...

Have you learned a new word - fat girl!

……

"I watched "The Assembly", and the shooting was really good, but are you really going to be on the same page as Ma Xiaokang?"

"Well, only by defeating Dongyang Media head-on, can we be called a foothold!"

The third master wants to be a lobbyist, after all, the two films will be released at the same time, which will inevitably cause the audience to be diverted...

But Zhang Junsheng can't miss this opportunity!

With the political axe charter, it is equivalent to having an innate advantage, of course, the investment in "Assembly" is 80 million, plus the publicity, the production cost must be more than 100 million, "Big Names 2" is equivalent to traveling lightly...

However, as long as he can beat "Big Names 2" at the box office, Zhang Junsheng doesn't care!

Moreover, "The Wind" and "Lin Hai Snow Plain" have all been approved, and Yuehua will produce a 'main theme' work every year.

The more important role of "Assembly" is to open up the relationship with the political axe!

This thing must not fall on the head of Dongyang Media, why can Dongyang Media get a charter, but Yuehua cannot?

“… What about you? What are your plans for next year?"

"There are two films planned..."

As soon as these words came out, the room instantly fell silent.

In the history of films, there are a lot of fast gunners, Hong Kong films have set a record of seven days from production to release, but the situation in the northern film industry is just the opposite, although everyone has begun to chase the box office in recent years, but after all, the accumulation of the previous decades is not fake, and the artistic atmosphere is still very strong in the entire film circle.

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.

After all, making a movie is really a very hard work!

There are also fast gunners in China, but most of them are small directors, and they don't have much climate.

Zhang Junsheng is not a small director!

“… Two films..."

"Yes, a comedy, with a black bias, and an experimental martial arts film..."
