Chapter 234: The status of the screenwriter
When everyone heard Han Ziguang's words, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, not to mention how many box offices they could go, there was a channel that made them happy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Han Ziguang didn't go without benefits to help distribute the movie, after all, the distribution company will charge a certain fee from the revenue, because the promotion of the movie and the like are all done by the distribution company, so it is impossible to do good things for free.
Even so, it is estimated that major companies will also squeeze their heads and want to squeeze in, because there will definitely be a limit on the number of places, it is impossible to release all movies, and the leisurely nature is the film of light and shadow entertainment and the film of the satellite company, and finally it will be the turn of other companies' films, and it would be good to release a dozen or so films a year, but just these ten or so places should make everyone crazy enough.
"Mr. Han! Are you telling the truth? Willing to release our film to Hollywood? I didn't hear me wrong! ”
Mecca couldn't help rubbing his bald head, to be honest, the reality changed too fast, so he couldn't react, after all, he just sighed, but he didn't expect to get such a big gain, if he can really open the Hollywood market, then he will be the biggest hero of the new art city.
"You heard me right, do you think I'm joking? In fact, in Hollywood, I wondered, why are people so successful and doing so much? That's because there is a huge market to rely on, and we can't get much box office if we only rely on Xiangjiang. ”
Han Ziguang smiled, then shook the champagne in his hand, took a sip gently, and said with a smile: "Only by opening up a larger market can we let Xiangjiang Films go out, and only then can we dare to spend a lot of money and invest in big movies, otherwise, it is estimated that no one will dare to try it in the future." ”
Han Ziguang didn't lie at this point, it's not that no one doesn't want to make blockbusters, but they can't recover the cost at all, once they fail, they will lose all their money, mainly because the market is too small, why are comedies popular? It is because comedies are in line with the interests of Xiangjiang people now, and the reality is full of pressure, so they naturally want to relax in the movie, which is why comedy will be a mainstream movie.
Golden Harvest's "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" and Shaw Brothers' "Interstellar Blunt Tire" are both big investments, but compared to Hollywood, they are nothing at all, among which "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" is still quite novel, and the picture is definitely good in this era. It's just that the fights in the back are a bit nondescript, a good Xianxia movie, it looks like a Jedi Knight is dueling, and no one has a lightsaber, which is really too heavily affected by Star Wars.
However, I have to say that Tsui Hark also made some new ideas, at least for Han Ziguang, it is still very good, as for the "Interstellar Blunt Tire", he really can't describe the plot of this movie, it's just nonsense, and the imitation of "Star Wars" is serious, and the sci-fi film is made into a funny film.
It can be said that now Xiangjiang Films has not yet found its own blockbuster positioning, and Tsui Hark has been exploring, much better than others, and Han Ziguang feels that there are too many themes that can be filmed, but how to make Europeans and Americans accept it is a very headache.
Everyone smiled knowingly when they saw Han Ziguang so serious, knowing that it was the right time to come to Han Ziguang's private party this time, since Han Ziguang had already said it at this time, everyone would naturally not have to make an inch, and when the time comes, the standard for the distribution of films by the light and shadow distribution company will definitely be formulated, and if everyone wants to impact Hollywood in the future, they will shoot movies according to such a standard.
In fact, there is no way to do it, to be released in North America, it is necessary to meet certain conditions, not to mention that Light and Shadow Entertainment Company has a little influence in North America at this time, so naturally it does not want to offend the audience by a bad movie because of the little goodwill that it has finally established.
As time goes by, everyone is more and more able to talk, and Han Ziguang listens to some things that everyone says, as well as some voices, among which the screenwriters' opinions are the greatest, because often the income is not proportional to the pay, which is the most difficult thing for screenwriters to accept.
In Xiangjiang, professional screenwriters basically do not exist, because most directors can write, direct and act, and basically do everything that everyone can do, and the scripts that the screenwriter has finally written will be changed beyond recognition by the director or actors.
Therefore, in Xiangjiang, the status of screenwriters is extremely embarrassing, for which most of them are part-time, and some will be directors if they have some fame, such as Gao Zhisen, Wong Kar-wai, Liu Zhenwei, Gu Dezhao, etc., while those who are not famous can only find other jobs and occasionally write scripts.
Han Ziguang actually discovered early that major companies do not particularly value screenwriters, and Light and Shadow Entertainment Company should be the company with the highest status of screenwriters, because the review of scripts is extremely strict, unlike other film companies that basically only have a script outline, or do not even have a script, directly hire actors, and then start filming, and many people will choose to invest when they see actors so big.
Because of this, one of the reasons why the actors' salaries are indirectly inflated, I have to say that now Xiangjiang movies are still very impactful in Southeast Asia, while Japan and South Korea need to watch specific actors and movies, for example, Cheng Long's influence in these two countries is unparalleled.
"You seem to be very interested in what they say."
Lin Qingxia couldn't help but be stunned when she saw everyone talking so intensely, and when she saw Han Ziguang smiling and silent, she said curiously: "Do you have a solution?" ”
"Sister Qingxia! You also think too highly of me, I'm not a god, I can solve anything, but I think this problem is also a problem that needs to be implemented. ”
Han Ziguang smiled bitterly, feeling that Lin Qingxia seemed to be very confident in himself, which made him a little weak, but he couldn't leave it alone, otherwise there would be a lack of good scripts, and at the same time, there would be no creativity.
"Hee-hee! I just think you can do it, to be honest, I also feel that Xiangjiang Films is very tired, because there will be all kinds of problems on the filming site, basically many lines are thought out on the spot, or rely on the improvised performance of the actors, and even the day before I don't know what will be filmed the next day. ”
Lin Qingxia filmed movies in Xiangjiang, to be honest, there are many discomforts, because movies in Baodao may not be as popular as Xiangjiang, but they basically have a complete script, and the actors are much easier to shoot, but not in Xiangjiang, there will be a lot of accidents every time, which is difficult to prevent.
