Section 33 Midsummer
PS: Ask for recommendation votes
………………
talked to Sun Zhiyou on the phone and found that he didn't care about this matter at all, he signed a contract with a small company, with a strong human touch, and there was no so-called ruthlessness in the commission. Now I'm busy on all fours. is like Zhang Yingxia, all borrowed light!
In half a month, Zhang Yingxia not only ran on Nanshi TV, but even had announcements from the second TV station, one of which was the notice of going to sea with the ship!
After going out of the sea twice, Zhang Yingxia, who originally felt very happy to get the notice fee, thought about telling Gong Sha that he couldn't stand it anymore after he came back, but he didn't want Gong Sha to say: "No, at least four phases are enough, at least until a graduate of the host major comes to the top." This show is taken care of by others, and I can't help but give face!"
"And what if no one wants to come?"
"Then you insist, remember, this is a favor notice received by the company, and you can't refuse. Gong Sha stopped Zhang Yingxia with a sentence: "Anyway, I think that host uncle likes you quite a lot! I called twice to praise you for your ability, and you are a good hand at sea! Anyway, you are really an all-rounder!"
Nima, it's not my fault that I'm in good health! Zhang Yingxia couldn't help but say after hanging up the phone. But no matter how good your body is, you can't stand all kinds of shooting time that doesn't follow common sense.
Yes, the favor notice is bigger than the sky. Some celebrities go to court against the company, some take advantage of the situation to bargain with the company, and some are ready to sit back and wait for the fisherman's profit.
The pain is that countless brokerage companies, many announcements that follow the cooperation of major TV stations have been forced to be replaced. This is a direct loss, and the indirect loss is even greater, the relationship with the TV station is repaired, and other brokerage companies enter the world.
For TV stations, at most, there is no one to worry about, and now there are not only people, but also people competing. Then the TV station is invincible, and it is the winner anyway.
………………
In half a month, even with all kinds of support from fans and various coaxes from entertainment reporters, the news of celebrities' salaries is slowly cooling down, after all, there are not only stars in life.
There will always be a day when things will be resolved. Either the east wind wins, or the west wins, and if such a large-scale and high-impact labor dispute can be resolved by compromise, that is news in itself. When the time comes, fry the cold rice again, review it, and it will be complete.
In the middle of summer, there is always a lot of excitement.
When the big director and all-star production of "Demon God Tribulation" appeared in the theater with a crushing attitude, the media paid less attention to the star's salary.
The number of films in this movie alone crushed the number of movies in the same period, and the number of films scheduled at the highest time once reached sixty percent. It's almost a time point of stepping on the hour to break 100 million, and the heat continues unabated.
The film took three years to prepare, and it took more than a year just to deploy the starring stars. With the top domestic special effects company.
It's not just the entertainment version that introduces everything about the film, from the stars involved, to the behind-the-scenes story, from the perspective of movie stunts, and the use of computer stunts. and then to the innovation of indoor shooting technology.
is different from the previous celebrity salary that only dominated the headlines of the entertainment section, and even the comprehensive news was given an eight-minute feature. The most shocking thing is that the economic news reports are all involved. All kinds of newspaper reviews, editorials, and movie reviews are all free of charge and free publicity, as if they were a prosperous era in the news media industry. This made many wage-earners very troubled: Nima, such a big momentum was completely overshadowed by the limelight of a movie.
Some film critics commented on "Demon God Tribulation":
Ten years ago, a movie box office of over 100 million was enough for people to celebrate, and in the past ten years, it has been common for a single film to have a box office of over 100 million. And the highest box office has also frequently begun to hit one billion. And at the beginning of the year, just as all the critics were predicting when the first billion-dollar box office movie would pop up this year.
"Demon God Tribulation" has been clubbed in the film industry, and even in film history, with a state of dominating the world, with 5.3 billion in two months. Completely broke through the psychology of all forecasters. Yes, reign over the world. Of course, there will be many reasons why the brick family has increased the ticket price, inflation, etc., to show that this movie was not a big deal in the past. It's a pity that the newspaper that slapped the face came faster, and a financial industry insider directly compared the data of prices and movie ticket prices in the previous two decades to show that the box office of "Demon God Tribulation" is absolutely unprecedented.
It was followed by another big director's main theme movie "One and Eight", which was released a week after "Demon God Tribulation", turning a monopoly into two tigers, and finally a total box office of 3.7 billion. The story is set in the war years, and the scenes are equally grand, especially the battle scenes of the opening ten minutes, all of which are masterpieces of hand-cranked cameras. And while this movie highlights the cruelty of the war, it also raises a question to the public, even if it is a mountain of military orders, is it worth saving one person with eight people? In this regard, film critics commented on this movie: They all feel that this film has depth and connotation higher than "Demon God Tribulation".
So the two movies are like this, and in the summer, the mode of theater dominance has begun.
It would be naïve to think that this is just the end. This is only the domestic box office, and the two movies dominated the screen for half a month. The Southern Continent and the Southern Subcontinent, the filmmakers of the 86 countries of the two continents are already going crazy. Every day, I urge to copy, I want to copy. These markets are another war.
In one summer, two films swept cinemas in all countries of the Pan-Ocean region's cultural circle.
…………
Zhang Yingxia, who was fortunate enough to see this carnival scene in the entertainment industry in his spare time, inexplicably thought of a movie about a big ship. What a similar sight of the madness of the whole people.
All the newspapers, all the TV shows, it seems that if they don't talk about these two movies, there is no other news. All the film critics changed their tune and shouted: The era of 2 billion box office for a single film has arrived.
So much so that no one notices a movie huddled in a corner at all. Even at the height of the resistance of the two big-budget films, this small-budget film has taken its place in theaters. Like weeds.
When the film industry finally took stock, many people suddenly discovered that there was still a small-budget film, which was not in the art theater chain, but actually stood up in the mainstream theater for a month and a half. Achieved a box office of 360 million.
…………
On the other hand, the three people at the heart of the film's creation are a different picture.
After Meng Jiatian finished filming, he returned to school with his two buddies and prepared his graduation thesis.
When I learned that the investor did not put the film in art theaters, but was preparing to enter mainstream theaters in the name of Class B films. Meng Jiatian only jumped twice with his eyelids. I've been mixing outside for more than half a year, and I've really smoothed out some edges and corners.
Meng Jiatian just hopes to pass the exam to stay in school and mix a teaching assistant or something in the school, the dream has been completed, and it is time to make some pragmatic plans.
Lou Jiumei has already discussed with his family that he will go to work in the family company before the end of the year.
And Liu Jianchao is preparing to be a commercial film director, and he has been contacting several advertising companies, but unfortunately they have all touched the nose.
Towards the end of July. After seeing two big-budget films, the three brothers were all disheartened. Prepare to have a casual drink in the dormitory, and then everyone will keep in touch, and Lao Yan will fly separately.
At this time, the investor of the film sent a representative to find the three in a hurry.
On behalf of the surname Fang, he is middle-aged and slightly fat, but his face is full of spirit: the three of them are easy for me to find.
Meng Jiatian didn't speak, but Lou Jiumei said jokingly: Representative Fang. At the beginning, we said in black and white on the contract, we just took the shot, regardless of the big sale. Now that you've lost it, isn't it too much for you to come to us?
Representative Fang laughed at Mimi: "Brother Lou is laughing, how can you compensate? Even if we lose, we won't come to you!"
Liu Jianchao smiled: "That's right, it's a loss"
Meng Jiatian raised his head and wondered: "It's not a loss, is it still a profit?"
Representative Fang said excitedly: "It's not that it's earned, it's a big profit!"
Look at it, this is the latest movie weekly, and it has praised several movies!
The eyes of the three lit up, and they quickly took it over, and flipped to the table of contents to the part about the movie:
After watching two high-quality big productions, today I will introduce you to a movie that was released at the same time.
This movie is called "Spring in a Small Town". is a small-budget art film.
As for why it will be released in mainstream theaters, perhaps the producers don't regard it as an art film, and want to try the water circle in mainstream theaters to make money. Or maybe when the two bulldozer movies were on a rampage in the theater, they felt that there was not enough cannon fodder and used it to make up the numbers.
Ten out of ten people interviewed did not know about the film, and the number of interviews had to be expanded to more than 30 people. Then you will find that several people will have seen it. Anyone who has seen it will say: this is a good movie. As for what's good, many people forget. But I just remembered a scene: a young man slapped himself, but he was forcing others to ask: Is it my fault?
The author was fortunate enough to go to see it under the guidance of a friend.
I also looked up a little bit of information. director, newcomer, and several leading actors, except for the heroine, she is still a little famous, and the fame here is relative to other leading actors.
At the beginning of the story, it is the kind of atmosphere that academic directors liked in the first ten years, happy young people, and depressing environmental atmosphere, and academic directors like this so-called expression of outstanding human nature with the environment the most.
In the first thirty minutes, it can be said that the director is quite qualified, and the hysterical venting of the husband of one of the leading actors is a bit too violent, of course, this is a family statement, maybe the director thinks it is just right.
After watching too many movies of this kind, you will feel: another film that torments yourself and tortures others.
It wasn't until that scene that I began to beat the drum mentally: perhaps, this is a movie that tortures myself.
There are more than 500 movies released in China every year, and many of them are basically miserable at the box office. It doesn't matter the size of the investment, but after many people watch it, they forget what it is when they leave the theater, and they don't even remember the most basic shot.
In contrast, "Spring in a Small Town" was undoubtedly a success. At the very least, it has a shot for me to remember and make me think. Rather than blindly showing the director's personality and showing off the photography skills. And "Spring in a Small Town" can persist in the gap between two big productions, which should have a lot to do with this. Stars, big productions don't mean everything. It is these advertising gimmicks that many viewers are disgusted with. Outside of this, if there is a film that can be watched by these counterculture audiences, it is already a success.
In the past two months, in addition to "Demon God Tribulation", "One and Eight", and "Spring in a Small Town", more than 20 movies have been released nationwide, but unfortunately, not many can last a week.
From this point of view, "Spring in a Small Town" was a success. As for the box office. Oh, forget it, three points and hundreds of millions, this box office is not as high as other people's budgets?
………………
Meng Jiatian looked at this film review, his face was red and green for a while. It's not just him, the other two are pretty much the same. This movie review said that it was an introduction, but between the lines, the gun and the stick damaged all three of them. If it weren't for Lao Fang's presence, the three of them would have scolded a long time ago, and they would not have estimated that this film critic was a famous mouth in the industry.
Since the post-production of the film was completed, there is basically nothing to do with him, and the investor has not pursued him for exceeding the deadline and budget, which has already given the school a lot of face.
As for why it was not released in art theaters, it was not something he could control.
But for now. Meng Jiatian laughed at himself in his heart: The success point of the film he made is not any of what he imagined, what is this?
As for Representative Fang's excited look, it is understandable: with an investment of less than 10 million, the company has earned more than 100 million yuan just from the box office share, and there is still the income from the release of discs in the future, so it is impossible not to be excited. In order to keep the already thin relationship between the company and the three people, the investment company was in a hurry and asked Fang to take a few big red envelopes to block the three people, and when he learned that the three had not left the school, Fang Fang chased after them to the dormitory of several people.
Meng Jiatian is five million, Lou Jiumei and Liu Jianchao are two million each. Although it is not much, it is all floating wealth, giving red envelopes, that is people's attitude, even if other investors don't give it, they can't say anything!
Just looking at the check in the red envelope. The three of them fell silent.
And Fang representative has already begun to ask when the next movie will start, as long as the three of them are willing, they can immediately sign a contract for investment, and invest 15 million in the early stage. Not enough to negotiate. As for the remuneration of the three people, they will be given according to the amount of the current red envelope.
Several people made eye contact, but Lou Jiumei said: Okay, just do what the representative said!
Representative Fang was naturally very happy.
It's a pity that if you make a film or something, it is estimated that you have to move it back, because there are already TV stations that have invited Meng Jiatian to do an interview, and it is impossible not to go. It was a reporter from the First TV movie channel.
