Chapter 926: I'm Sorry Old Friend (Part I)
…
The production cost of Xu Cun's "Crazy Stone" is a total of minus 49.6 million yuan, you read that right, it is 'minus' 49.6 million yuan, that is to say, "Crazy Stone" has not yet been released, and Xu Cun has already earned 49.6 million yuan.
Why is this happening?
Because in the preparation stage of "Crazy Stone", Xu Cun asked Li Xiuxiu to ask for a lot of sponsorship from Pepsi, BMW and other companies - a total of about 60 million yuan. If you add the sponsorship that Xu Cun's dream mobile phone should give. By sponsoring this piece alone, Xu Cun can get nearly 100 million yuan.
(Later, when Shi Nansheng was publicizing, this matter was also the focus of propaganda.) )
If you don't mention the sponsorship, Xu Cun actually spent a total of more than 10 million yuan on "Crazy Stone", which is about 15 million Hong Kong dollars, which is more than 7 million yuan more than the production cost of "Crazy Stone" in the previous life, and don't forget, it is only 1994, not 2006, so calculated, the money spent by Xu Cun on filming "Crazy Stone" is actually nearly ten times the production cost of "Crazy Stone" in the previous life.
What is the price of Xu Cun's "Crazy Stone" compared to "Crazy Stone" in the previous life?
Naturally, it can't be the actor's salary - except for Xu Cun himself, almost all of Xu Cun's "Crazy Stone" are new actors, and their salary does not exceed 300,000 yuan, and this is when Xu Cun gives some more.
It can't be the cost of equipment, negative materials, props and costumes, set rentals, etc., which were much cheaper in '94 than in 2006.
The reason why Xu Cun spent nearly ten times more money on filming "Crazy Stone" than the production fee of "Crazy Stone" in the previous life is because Xu Cun's "Crazy Stone" is dozens of times better than the "Crazy Stone" in the previous life - although the "Crazy Stone" in the previous life has a lot of good points, no one can deny it, because of its insufficient production cost and Ning Hao's insufficient directing skills at that time, it cannot be regarded as a fine production, especially in its picture, it can be said to be quite average, Xu Cun's "Crazy Stone" It has strengthened the cost of production technology, post-editing and production, sound production, and most importantly, art production and other expenses to improve the quality of the film itself, so that it is in line with Xu Cun's status as the world's No. 1 director.
But—
Even though Xu Cun has put a lot of effort into the quality of "Crazy Stone", due to the geographical limitations of "Crazy Stone", it has only achieved a box office of more than 100 million US dollars in Europe and the United States, and this is still due to Xu Cun's unparalleled fame.
In various parts of Asia, Crazy Stone has done well at the box office.
Hong Kong: HK$61 million.
Taiwan Bend: NT$197 million.
Nanyang: US$34.2 million.
Japan: 92.7 billion yen.
South Korea: 4.26 million moviegoers.
All in all, the results of "Crazy Stone" are not bad, if it is not put on Xu Cun, the world's number one director, and on any director, that director has enough reason to be proud.
Although "Crazy Stone" can't make Xu Cun proud, it is enough to satisfy Xu Cun - after all, Xu Cun's main purpose in filming "Crazy Stone" is for the mainland film market, and "Crazy Stone" swept 385 million yuan in the mainland film market, fully achieving Xu Cun's original purpose, as for other film markets, it is just to make some pocket money by the way.
Don't think that Xu Cun is too crazy, with the huge and excellent industry that Xu Cun has now, he is definitely qualified to think so!
The reason why Xu Cun made movies himself was purely a personal hobby.
It's true!
In terms of career, Xu Cun can actually be said to have no big pursuits, just need to make some investments at the right opportunity with his own foresight.
Xu Cun had already thought about it, and when his children grew up, he would assign his enterprising children to various businesses to experience, while he slowly retreated to the second line, and then did something he liked to do, such as investing in some movies, TV series, variety shows, etc., and by the way, Bubble Girl increased her harem.
Xu Cun has this heart, it's not been a year or two, he is looking forward to his children growing up, just like a man and a woman in love looking forward to getting married!
Xu Cun understands a truth very well - the only way to be undefeated, not old and not confused is to believe in young people.
It's a pity -
Xu Cun's children are still too young now - the eldest is only fourteen years old, and it will take some time for them to grow up, and the era of the big Internet is coming soon, Xu Cun has to stand on this post.
Therefore, Xu Cun has to hold on for a few more years before he can completely unload the burden on his shoulders.
But then again, although Xu Cun can't retire yet, Xu Cun's big entertainment empire has been built and is developing steadily, so while Xu Cun waits for his children to grow up, he can also take some time to enjoy his own life, which is why Xu Cun will personally direct "Crazy Stone" and participate in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Journey to the West".
……
Xu Cun's filming in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was not fast, although almost the entire crew revolved around Xu Cun - it was not until the end of September that Xu Cun finished in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" crew.
After the killing, Xu Cun took Jiang and Zhang Ziyi back to their home in Beijing, that is, Baicunju, to rest for a while.
Taking advantage of this time, Xu Cun dealt with the work that had accumulated for several months.
In mid-November, Zhou Xingchi and Liu Zhenwei specially came to Beijing to invite Xu Cunjin's group to complete the filming of "Journey to the West".
Xu Cun had already made an agreement with Zhou Xingchi and Liu Zhenwei about this matter, so Xu Cun didn't talk nonsense, and the next day he took his own private jet, took Zhou Xingchi and Liu Zhenwei and others to Ningxia, and then took his own team to Zhenbeibao Film and Television City.
Regarding Xu Cun's arrival, Zhu Yin, Lan Jieying, and Cai Shao, who haven't seen Xu Cun for a short time since filming "Journey to the West", mentioned how happy they were!
With the joy of Zhu Yin, Lan Jieying, and Cai Shaofen, Xu Cun took them and photographic equipment into the desert that night, and filmed a powerful H version of "Journey to the West" blockbuster in the desert.
It was on this night that because of the lack of actors filming this blockbuster, Xu Cun, who was dissatisfied, did something sorry for Tu Weihua, an old friend of more than ten years......
