Chapter 55: The Second Movie

First of all, I wish all readers a happy and healthy Chinese New Year!

----

The embodiment of the spirit of American entertainment has become a footnote to the national carnival on this day, of course, on this day, the director Smith Chow, may not be a well-known guy, nor is he the owner of any record, but the first film director who let hundreds of people spontaneously run naked may be unprecedented, and he will never come again

The dust has basically settled, and SAW's box office can't rise very high, according to the agreement with Lionsgate, Zhou Shaoming came to Lionsgate Film Company again to carry out work as exciting as what he did with Christina**---- and extract his share of the profits.

Although Zhou Shaoming is very willing to trust others, he can't bear to be treated as an idiot by others, so Zhou Shaoming has already arranged for professional lawyers and accountants invited by accounting affairs to supervise the statistics and calculations of the entire profit.

The black elongated Mercedes-Benz slowly docked in front of the gate of the Lionsgate movie, and all the Lionsgate staff stood excitedly at the door to greet them, and when Zhou Shaoming appeared with a smile on his face, dressed in a straight suit, and appeared in a graceful manner, there was warm applause around.

And Zhou Shaoming waved to the crowd with a modest smile on his face, and Christina, who was dressed in an evening dress and a long skirt that covered the floor, held his hand and waved to the crowd with a smile.

Jon was already waiting aside, and at this time he hurriedly greeted Zhou Shaoming into the company.

In the VIP room, several lawyers and accountants stood respectfully, waiting for Zhou Shaoming to sit down with a smile before they sat down safely.

"Mr. Smith Chow, Saw currently has a total box office of $181.6 million, which is basically a 5:5 split with the movie theaters, and we have a total of $90.7 million in pre-tax income, and then according to the five-fifty split method with Lionsgate, we can get a profit of $45.39 million before tax, and then pay about 20% of the tax to the tax department, and our gross profit is $36.31 million." The accountant took a large number of statements, and then simply reported to Zhou Shaoming.

"Okay, you've worked hard." Zhou Shaoming was very satisfied, he roughly calculated, and after the invested funds and the profits that should be distributed, he should be able to get a final profit of close to 29 million US dollars.

$29 million! That's equivalent to 240 million RMB! It's enough to lie down and eat in this life.

Zhou Shaoming's 36,000 pores were shouting cool, and he just smiled flutteringly.

Lionsgate prepared a celebration banquet, all the cast and crew of SAW were invited, and the excited Zhou Shaoming and Robert Jr., Jeremy, Tobin and others were poured wine in turn, and after a while, they lay down like mud.

But before lying down, Zhou Shaoming withdrew two million US dollars, and this money was for the damn brother's side, and he stuck a nail in it!

I will remember the humiliation I gave me, and I will return my surname to you once and for all!

In the joy, Zhou Shaoming's eyes had an indescribable light, and then he was drunk in the wine.

Happy times always pass quickly, and before Zhou Shaoming woke up from his hangover, the uninvited director system came to the door.

"Ding!"

It's the director system! Zhou Shaoming, who had a splitting headache and just wanted to find some water to drink, jumped up at that moment, this time, is it a blessing or a curse?

Zhou Shaoming soon heard the electronic synthetic female voice of the director system: "Host, please start extracting the second movie for shooting, this time using the turntable machine selection method, and additional special requirements." Please get started. ”

"Wait, my first movie has only been released for a few days, and I'm going to make a second one so soon? It's too fast! Zhou Shaoming shouted in his heart.

"Yes, I don't even show up, host, do you want that?" The electronic female voice turned out to be coquettish, which made Zhou Shaoming very unbearable.

But the director system really doesn't appear, now it's more devastating than letting Zhou Shaoming keep his permanent surname, after the filming and release of SAW, Zhou Shaoming was deeply attracted to the movie early on, and began to truly enjoy life and get the joy of making his dream a reality, if he is cut off from the movie at this time, it is better to kill him!

"Don't! Oh my God, don't show up, I just wonder if I can catch my breath or enjoy it for a few months! Please! Zhou Shaoming screamed, very American, he now has a net worth of tens of millions of dollars, but he just hopes to enjoy life more, especially Christina's beautiful and moving **.

"Saw has come to an end, and when the filming of the second film begins, it will not be allowed to start until March 1, 2000. During this time, the host can be freely arranged, and you can enjoy life during this time! The system lets you not raise it, it's just a supervision, if the host doesn't like it, I can change it! Lori laughed like all the lively girls in the world.

"What did it look like? Let's hear it. "Zhou Shaoming is looking forward to changing the way of supervision, don't you lift it? It's disgusting.

"For example, if you can't complete the task, you can die!"

"Damn, this is the father of chainsaws, not infinite horror, director!"

Die if you can't complete the mission? What's the difference between that and not lifting, it's not kidding me! Zhou Shaoming was simply speechless.

"How about being blind or unable to walk?"

"I want to be a normal person, boss!"

"Ah, this won't work, that's not good, or the host you can say it yourself! See if I can accept it? ”

"Like deducting money or something, okay?" Zhou Shaoming licked his face and discussed with the director system.

"Okay, the system accepts the host's proposal, but it can't be changed this time!" Little Lori said happily.

"Haha! You're really good at talking, if you don't change it, you won't change it, and if you can't complete the task, you won't be able to deduct money. ”

"Okay, if this mission can't be completed, the host will go bankrupt, sure!"

**! You unconscionable guy, Zhou Shaoming rolled his eyes scolding, this damn system has canceled the non-lift, but if you can't complete the task, you will go bankrupt, in other words, isn't it the same as not lifting.

I don't have money, what do I do to soak my sister, I don't have money, how can I live a good life!

Hey, it's been a whole year, and I've only been enjoying Christina's hot body for a few weeks? I'm going to prepare for the second movie, and I have a headache when I think about it.

"Alright! I surrender, let me choose the film! Although Zhou Shaoming was helpless, fortunately, this system did not let him kill people and set fires, and his quality of life had changed dramatically, which made him feel a little better.

The success of SAW gave Zhou Shaoming confidence, as long as it was not a garbage piece, he was confident to complete the system task.

Countless lights and shadows began to rotate in front of Zhou Shaoming's eyes, and the light was bizarre and dizzying.

"OK, stop!" Zhou Shaoming chose one casually, praying in his heart that there would be no science fiction or war movies with huge investments, although he made a lot of money with "Chainsaw", but for the kind of blockbuster films with hundreds of millions of dollars of investment, it is a drop in the bucket, and it is not enough to watch at all.

The light and shadow in front of me suddenly stopped, and a movie rushed towards it like a whistling train!

"Spring in the Cattle Herding Class"!

Zhou Shaoming, who was lonely and unheard, had never heard of this movie, his heart sank suddenly, thinking that this movie would not be the kind of movie with a very bad box office reputation, which made him full of ambition and ready to show his strength, and shouted to the outside world that he was a supernova director, but don't stuff a bad movie to yourself!

There's a whole bunch of pink eye guys out there waiting to see their jokes!

Especially the entertainment reporters of the Chicago Sun, who ran a hundred meters naked downstairs from Yahoo's headquarters, wanted to kill themselves.

"Oh God! O Buddha! O prophet! Don't give me a bad movie! Zhou Shaoming prayed in his heart for the gods and Buddhas, and then obtained all the information for this movie.

Countless pictures, music, dialogues, storyboard scripts, camera maps, storyboard structure drawings and other materials rushed straight to me like a rolling storm, filling my brain with a bang.

The story is simple: in the French countryside in 1949, the musician Clement went to work as an assistant teacher at a boys' boarding school nicknamed "The Bottom of the Pond". Most of the students in the school are difficult problem children, corporal punishment is commonplace here, and the school's principal is only concerned about his own future, and he is brutal and coercive.

Clement, who had a quiet surname, tried to improve the situation in his own way, recomposing musical compositions, organizing choirs, and deciding to use music to open the closed hearts of his students.

However, things don't go well, and Clement discovers that the student Pierre? Mo Anqi has an extraordinary musical talent, but he grew up in a single-parent family, his surname is extremely sensitive and withdrawn, how to release Pierre's musical talent, Clement has a headache; At the same time, his relationship with Pierre's mother gradually became delicate.

Is this a musical movie?
