Chapter 160: You're About to Make a Movie?!!
The time soon came to the beginning of December, Su Xiaofan invested 100,000 yuan by himself, and successfully completed the remake of the modified short film "Tuner" of "Gains and Losses", and the duration of the remade "Tuner" was compressed to 14 minutes.
Although the duration has been cut in half, the plot has become more compact,
Due to the relatively abundant production time and higher investment costs, every shot was carefully selected by Su Xiaofan, and I really couldn't think of any room for improvement, and the overall quality of the film has improved by several grades compared with "Gains and Losses".
On the day of the crew's finale dinner, "33 Days of Broken Love", which cost 8.9 million yuan, was officially released, and the box office was finally fixed at 350 million yuan, becoming the biggest box office dark horse of the year, which formed a strong contrast with "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" in January of the same year, which was known as the most expensive film in the history of Chinese film with an investment of 600 million yuan and a box office income of 600 million.
"Domestic movie box office NO1VS domestic movie dark horse NO1!" Li Daochang drank and his face was flushed, he stood up and shook his sleeves, and asked loudly, "What does Director Su think about this?"
Although Li Li and Lao Ang did not participate in this filming, because Zheng Hao was Su Xiaofan's assistant director, they knew that there was a finale to eat today, so it was logical for them to join in the fun.
After several people talked about the box office situation of Huaguo this year, they were out of control, especially Li Li, as a film theory research school, talked even more exaggerated about his alcohol, and he had a kind of guiding spirit.
Facing Daochang Li's inquiry, Su Xiaofan just smiled faintly: "What can I think? My only extravagant hope is that before making movies in the future, Daochang Li can help calculate a hexagram and see if the box office is bad or good." ”
Everyone burst into laughter, and they all heard that Su Xiaofan was ridiculing Li Li's momentum in pointing out the country.
Zheng Hao even raised his wine glass, slapped the table and coaxed: "Daochang Li, if I were you, I would have to do three bottles with him to teach him how to behave!"
"Dry three bottles!"
"Three bottles!"
Everyone also coaxed.
Li Li rode the tiger hard, and pretended to be angry and raised the wine bottle to Su Xiaofan: "Either say it or drink it!"
Su Xiaofan couldn't help but secretly complain, he was actually almost drunk this time, and if he drank it again, he would have a foreign appearance, not to mention Li Li, he didn't care about the demeanor of the Taoist chief when he spoke, he really wanted three bottles of belly, how to go back was a problem......
Su Xiaofan didn't say a word, he directly took the wine glass in front of him and dried it in one gulp, and Li Li directly raised the wine bottle to dry it when he saw this.
"Slow down!" Su Xiaofan hurriedly waved his hand to stop Li Li, "Just now I lost my words and offended the Daoist, I will punish myself for this cup~ As for the question that the Daoist just asked......"
"The people here are all acquaintances, and I'm not a big person, so what I say is treated as a fart, and I just laugh and laugh. He cleared his throat and said in a deep voice: "My opinion is just four words: black smoke miasma!"
"It costs 600 million to shoot "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling"? I don't know if there are any other tricks, but if you put your mind on throwing money and gimmicks, and don't pay attention to the quality of the film itself, sooner or later you will smash the signboards of the fifth generation of directors!"
Dong Jiatong's face suddenly changed slightly, and he was slightly relieved after turning his head to look around.
Zheng Hao, Li Li, Lao Ang, Ye Yang, Brother Liu, Uncle Hui, Niu San, Brother Xiaoyong, Tang Muxuan......
Su Xiaofan didn't call outsiders at this finale banquet, otherwise if Su Xiaofan's words spread out, he would anger the big name, and it was estimated that he would not be able to eat and walk around.
"120 million to invite a foreigner to act, if this is to be released in North America to attract the box office, it is reasonable, but don't people in North America have not been allowed to be released? If it is not for singing the main theme under the banner of patriotism, I don't think the domestic box office will necessarily be as high as "33 Days of Broken Love"!"
"As for "33 Days of Broken Love", it avoided the fierce battlefield of blockbusters, and turned to play guerrilla in a small, fresh and low-cost position, and the story is emotionally down-to-earth, I think it is indeed a bit expected, but with this movie taking the lead, the next small fresh movie that follows the trend is estimated to be raging......"
"Okay!" Li Li slammed the wine bottle on the table, "Sure enough, the hero sees the same!"
As he spoke, he picked up the bottle and began to drink it uncontrollably.
Everyone couldn't help laughing, and at the same time, they were also reminiscing about what Su Xiaofan had just said, and felt that this complaint was quite enjoyable.
After Zheng Hao pondered for a moment, he patted Su Xiaofan's arm and whispered in his ear, "I heard Jiatong say that you want to make a movie directly?"
Su Xiaofan subconsciously glanced at Dong Jiatong.
Dong Jiatong was sitting next to her, and the tip of her ear also heard Zheng Hao's words, and when she saw Su Xiaofan looking at her, she quickly stuck out her tongue and explained in a low voice: "Didn't you ask me if I had any movie scripts last time...... I told Brother Xuan and Brother Hao about this!"
"Movie script?" Lao Ang, who was sitting next to Dong Jiatong, suddenly looked at Su Xiaofan in surprise, "You're about to make a movie?!!
Lao Ang didn't pay attention to lowering his voice because he was excited for a while, and now the whole table turned their heads to look at Su Xiaofan.
The originally lively and noisy box instantly became silent, and the atmosphere was a little strange.
Su Xiaofan: "......"
Lao Ang also realized that he had overreacted just now, and smiled apologetically at Su Xiaofan again.
But what's the use?
Now everyone knows......
But fortunately, there are no outsiders here, and I am not afraid of people laughing at them.
"Well, I have plans to make a movie, but I haven't ...... the eight characters yet" Su Xiaofan saw that everyone's expressions were a little excited, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Everyone sit down and talk well, don't get excited!"
When Lao Ang heard Su Xiaofan admit that he had this plan, his heart suddenly felt like he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle, all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred, and at the same time, he also felt powerless.
When he was still a newcomer who had just entered school, Su Xiaofan was dragged by Lao Wang to participate in the Yanjing Micro Film Competition, and won the award without any suspense......
In addition, last month I filmed a recruitment propaganda film and fought a lawsuit, and after a single operation, I not only became famous on the Internet, but also became a figure in school......
At this time, Lao Ang started to prepare in October, saved money for two months to scrape together 5,000 yuan, and spent a lot of effort to build a student team, and finally finished filming a short film a few days ago, ready to participate in the Huaguo Micro Film Competition......
thought that he could catch up a little bit with this competition and win a prize, but Su Xiaofan suddenly told him that he no longer played short films, and he was going to play theatrical movies!
The most annoying, the most annoying is,
Lao Ang did not doubt the authenticity of Su Xiaofan's words at all......
Because of the last lawsuit, the old bottom of Su Xiaofan's family was lifted out by the media, and the rich second generation said that he wanted to make a movie to play, can he be talking about it? !
