Chapter 206: The King of Kung Fu
On July 13, Liu Dong came to the second stop of the audition, the crew of "The King of Kung Fu".
This time he auditioned for the role of the Yujiang God of War, the villain in the film, who imprisoned the Monkey King for 500 years.
In terms of scenes, this role is the heaviest role except for Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, Liu Yifei and the gringo, even more than the white-haired witch played by Li Binbin.
To be honest, such a role that can play opposite Cheng Long and Li Lianjie, if it weren't for the extremely outrageous plot and the box office, Liu Dong would actually want to take it.
Although the plot of "Three Kingdoms: Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" is also outrageous, isn't the film and television drama going to be dramatized.
The white-haired witch, the Jade God of War who sealed the Monkey King, takes it as his mission to maintain the order of the heavenly court (what about Erlang God?), and Cheng Long, who is playing drunken fists......
Because the state officials of a village opposed him, the great god of the Heavenly Court of the Jade Frontier God of War killed a large group of people and horses, and also shot Jin Yanzi's mother to death. Then Li Lianjie, who was wearing a bathrobe, came out and said when it was time to retribution.
This is still a monk? My father and mother were slaughtered by the two gods, and I won't take revenge on you.
Liu Yifei said Cheng Long, aren't you a fairy? Aren't immortals calling for wind and rain? Then Cheng Long lay on the ground and began to write talismans, moistening the brush with saliva, and retching there, but the writing talisman really worked—Li Lianjie stood on a high place and came to a soak of divine urine. I'm grass, Li Lianjie took out Ding Ding to pee in front of Liu Yifei!
The trick of the last big boss of the country of the country K.,It's really elusive.,Shadowless and invisible.,A poisonous hairpin.,Get the boss within one move.,This very blunt and super blunt hairpin head is under the stimulation of what kind of internal force can be stabbed into the thick armor on the boss's body?
Could it be that the little kid of the United States is a century-old wizard with a spiritual light rushing out of the heavenly spirit cover like Zhou Xingxing? And according to the total length of the hairpin, the estimated thickness of the armor on the boss's body, and the length of the section exposed after the hairpin is poked in, the hairpin can touch the flesh of the boss?
The "master and apprentice" group of four people walked through the brothel and was the bamboo forest! Through the desert was the Peach Blossom Island!
Of course, all of the above can be endured, and it can be processed artistically.
But what did that foreigner do, Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, and Liu Yifei escorted him to hand over the golden hoop stick to the Monkey King, could it be that he was the reincarnation of Tang Seng?
The golden hoop stick can be bought casually in an antique store, and it also has the function of a moonlight treasure box, so why doesn't it take Sun Wukong to cross?
Isn't the golden hoop stick 18,000 catties, it didn't collapse the shop, and the gringo can pick it up?
This is simply a hodgepodge, in the name of the Monkey King, just an action movie, or an action movie for the people of the United States!
Wrong!
It's supposed to be a comedy... Oh no, it's not a comedy, it's a comedy.
"How's the preparation going?"
Li Manyu's voice interrupted Liu Dong's thoughts and pulled him back to reality.
"Almost, the character is not complicated, and the martial arts action is no problem, it depends on the shape after makeup!" Liu Dong retracted his thoughts and said.
"You don't have to be too nervous, if you can get the leading actor of "Jiangshan Beauty", the three dramas "The King of Kung Fu", "Painted Skin" and "Red Cliff" are all dispensable!" Li Manyu said.
"Didn't you say before that "The King of Kung Fu" and "Red Cliff" are rare big investments, and you can get them as much as possible, why did you change your hexagram so quickly now!" Liu Donghu doubted.
"That was before, no matter how big the investment was, it was two supporting roles, and it didn't have much weight. "Beauty in the Mountains" is also a big-budget actor with an investment of hundreds of millions, and even if there are two supporting roles in the same level of movies for you now, it is far from comparable!"
"Even if these two movies are successful in the end, with a box office of more than 300 million, or even 450 million, it is not as good as "Beauty of the Mountains", which has a box office of only 100 million, the success of the former does not belong to you, and the latter is your movie!" Li Manyu said solemnly.
"What if the box office of "Jiangshan Beauty" does not have 100 million, or 80 million, or even lower?"
Liu Dong can be sure that the box office of this movie did not break 100 million, not even 80 million.
If it was close to 100 million, it would have been taken out by Donnie Yen's fans to talk about it, and I wouldn't even hear a sound!
Li Manyu hesitated for a while and said, "As long as the mainland box office is not less than 50 million, it is not too bad, with the popularity of Chen Huilin and Li Ming in Xiangjiang, they should be able to get nearly 10 million box office in Xiangjiang." ”
"In this way, the cost of about 20 million yuan can be recovered, one of the investors, Xinglin Film and Television is a film company in Singapore, and all the copyrights of Southeast Asian distribution, audio and video were bought out by them for 3.6 million meters, which is 27 million, plus mainland television, audio and video, and network copyrights add up to 3 million, and Europe and the United States also sold more than 1 million meters, nearly 10 million yuan. ”
"After calculating all the gains, it should be 60 million yuan, and with an investment cost of 100 million, the loss is 40 million!"
"And there are 5 investors in this film, and Berner only paid 20 million, which is not the largest investor, but he can get 25% of the income, that is, 15 million, plus 10% of the distribution fees in the mainland, a total of 20 million, not counting the income of the theater, it can still protect the capital!" Li Manyu explained.
#@¥%@#¥%……&&**()¥*………… ()*&
Liu Dong quickly calculated an account in his mind, and the co-authors except Berner were all going to lose money.
Liu Dong, who has been in the film and television industry for more than a year, now has a basic understanding of the industry.
The Big Three are at the top of the food chain, especially Birner, whose distribution revenue accounts for more than half of the year's total revenue, while film and television production generates only slightly more revenue than the cinema chain.
On the contrary to Bernard is Huayi, film and television production and artist management account for a large part, and the distribution revenue only accounts for less than 40%, which is still thanks to their investment in so many big productions every year, which is equivalent to left-handed in and right-handed out.
As the largest media group in China, Guangxian released its first movie "Wounded City" in 06 and officially entered the film industry.
In 06, "Wounded City" ranked 5th in the annual box office of domestic films with a good score of nearly 80 million, and the first in front were the costume blockbusters "Golden Armor" and "Night Banquet", Li Lianjie's "Huo Yuanjia", and Cheng Long's "Baby Plan".
Nearly 7 percent of Guangxian Media's revenue depends on TV program production and advertising, creating more than 8 percent of the group's profits, and performing arts activities, film and television dramas account for less than 2 percent of the profits.
But no one will underestimate this group that has just set foot in the film business, and the TV programs on dozens of TV stations across the country, involving movies, television, music, and other award ceremonies are their biggest reliance, and they are also a weapon for film promotion, making them quickly become a distribution giant.
"What do other investors rely on to make profits?" Liu Dong asked again, he didn't think that everyone else was a good money boy, and handed over the money to you. Or just a gamble!
