Chapter 639: Dislike Zhong Chuhong? Substitution!
70.8,76.4.
After these two figures came out, the industry was shocked.
The former is the average rating of this episode of Love Letters, and the latter is the highest rating, and this is only the first episode, and the next episode will not air until next weekend.
Such a terrifying high rating not only created a leading river in ratings, but also made ATV show off and remained silent.
Some media attribute this high rating more to the addition of Zheng Shaohao, and his huge number of fans cannot be underestimated. Some media also believe that although there are factors such as Zheng Shaohao, Chen Ping'an's factors are also indispensable, as well as the good reputation of the show "Love Letter" itself.
Some viewers said that they just changed the channel to watch it after they heard that Chen Ping'an and Guan Yonghe had a romantic relationship with Guan Yonghe in the show.
In any case, the ratings of this episode of the show hit a historic high, Guan Yonghe's popularity has increased greatly, Liu Qingyun's nickname of "Prince of Dark Horses" has also spread, the wedding of Zheng Shaohao and Guan Jinghua, and the singing of Guo Fucheng and Zhou Huimin on the same stage are called golden boys and girls, all of which have laid a good foundation for the upcoming filming of "The Great Era".
Interviews and exclusive interviews by reporters continued, because Chen Ping'an refused to accept the reporter's interview on the grounds of filming "Jurassic Park", and the reporters who had the intention to gossip about the scandal between him and Guan Yonghe could only focus on Guan Yonghe.
During the subsequent period, Guan Yonghe's newspaper rate was extremely high, and her amiable image was like the kindness of the sister next door, which also won her a lot of audience support. The audience is also full of expectations for "The Great Era" starring Zheng Shaohao, Liu Qingyun, Zhou Huimin, and Guan Yonghe.
Chen Ping'an disappeared again and devoted himself to filming.
In mid-May, after three months of grueling shooting. "Jurassic Park" has finally been announced, and the rest depends on the dark horse special effects studio and post-editing production. It is expected that by the beginning of June it should be able to complete the production zuò.
Jiang Zhiqiang asked to produce a complete film trailer for the pre-promotion of films around the world. Because of Chen Ping'an, there are too many things. The film promotion work falls on the heroine Li Jiaxin.
In the near future, Li Jiaxin will not take on other film and television dramas, at most, she will shoot a few commercials, attend commercial events, and cooperate with the company to promote "Jurassic Park" in Asia the rest of the time.
When "Jurassic Park" was released, it caused a global sensation, and her popularity and fame increased greatly, and after her value increased, she was considering taking over film and television dramas.
The grand finale banquet of "Jurassic Park" was on a grand scale, and all investors were invited, all of whom attended without exception. Because some tidbits will be played at the finale banquet, it can be regarded as Chen Ping'an giving them a reassurance.
The bosses of many film companies in Hong Kong and Taiwan gathered together. They already know that Dark Horse International is operating, and the film will be released simultaneously around the world. But they don't know anything about the content, just out of trust in Chen Ping'an.
The film is still the one when Chen Ping'an brought it to the United States, it is very short, but the waves are magnificent and the effect is realistic, and everyone's eyes are bright. Some large film companies, such as Zou Huaiwen, Pan Disheng, Yang Zhicheng and Tomson Pictures, are considering the cost of hiring a dark horse special effects studio, while those small studio owners are considering how much the global box office will be after the release of the film and how much return on investment they can achieve.
Everyone was happy. Only the CEO of Lianhai Pictures was very angry. If the Taiwan authorities had not banned Chen Ping'an, they would have been responsible for the distribution of this absolutely sensational film in Taiwan. That's a lot of money!
"A'an, it's May, when will your fundraising order come out this year?" Xiang Huaqiang walked to Chen Ping'an with a wine glass.
Chen Ping'an's fundraising order has been carried out for four sessions. Every year, every investor who is fortunate enough to participate in it has gained a lot.
But there is a problem, the target film in the Jianghu fundraising order. Every time I raise money, it's very mysterious. The strictest is last year's "Jurassic Park", which invested $50 million to shoot a sci-fi Hong Kong film. A lot of people are drumming in their hearts.
At today's finale banquet, after watching the movie. Everyone is at ease and full of anticipation.
Not all film companies can participate in each fundraising order, and there are only a few that have a stable share. Yongsheng Film enjoys two fixed shares, which means that the investment and income are twice that of most winning bidders, so Xiang Huaqiang is very concerned about this year's fundraising order.
It's not just him, many people care. Once a year, you can make a steady profit and make money in the stock market!
"A little while. The script is already available, but the main actor has not yet been decided. After a while, I will fly to the United States, and when the time comes, I will negotiate with the leading actors, and Hong Kong will issue a fundraising order. Uncle Ten, don't worry, I will not forget you if I have money to make. ”
"Haha, then I'll be waiting for your good news! Tell me first, how big are you going to do this time, what theme, Hong Kong or Western films? ”
"Western films. With an initial budget of 100 million, it is an action movie. ”
"Then I'll have to prepare two million dollars in advance." Xiang Huaqiang laughed heartily, even if he doubled, he could earn two million dollars in a year, and he didn't have to launder money through other channels.
After the finale banquet, the crew was disbanded, and Chen Ping'an continued to be busy. followed the dark horse special effects studio for post-production of special effects, until a week later, seeing that the progress of the production was progressing according to his ideas, Chen Ping'an gave himself a few days off with confidence, and then prepared to fly to the United States.
He is only responsible for filming and providing part of the publicity ideas, and there will be professionals responsible for the specific operation.
On the American side, "Mission Impossible" has been almost prepared, and Tom Cruise agreed to star in it after reading the script. Directed by Wu Yusen, with an investment cost of 65 million, it is definitely the highest investment among the films directed by Wu Yusen.
The American media has been talking about this matter non-stop, and some say that Anne Heard is crazy, not every oriental director can become Chen Ping'an, and the investment of 65 million actually found a Chinese director, and this director has been in Hollywood for less than two years, and he has never directed a movie with such a high investment cost.
There are also media critics Tom Cruise, saying that he rejected an Oriental director and missed the possible Oscar for Best Actor, and now he is in a hurry to go to the doctor, putting the treasure on another Oriental director, and hurriedly agreeing without thinking about the time after getting the script, too reckless and likely to make mistakes again.
In this comment, Tom Cruise said that he likes the script of "Mission Impossible" very much, and "Bloody Heroes" and "That Killer is Not Too Cold" directed by Wu Yusen are all excellent works, and he also appreciates his violent aesthetics, so he is looking forward to cooperating with Wu Yusen.
Anne Heard said that she has always been a calm person, and the company's development is also in accordance with the established plan step by step, Wu Yusen's directing of "Mission Impossible" is carefully considered by the company, and the company also believes that he can succeed.
As for Wu Yusen, Ken Ben was silent. The success of "That Killer Is Not Too Cold" only allowed him to gain a firm foothold in Hollywood, but it could not prove that he had the ability to control the investment of 60 million, so all he had to do was to shoot "Mission Impossible" well, speak with facts, and prove himself with the box office.
"Mission Impossible" went smoothly, but "Flowers of the End" encountered difficulties, and after reading the script, the 55th Oscar queen Meryl Streep expressed a certain interest in starring, but said that it would take a few days to think about it.
This is normal, Tom Cruise is not normal after reading the script and directly agreeing. It's just that no one knows that as early as the Oscars reception, he had a consensus with Chen Ping'an, so after reading the script of "Mission Impossible", he was very interested in this script and agreed on the spot.
Meryl Streep thought about it for a few days and turned Anne Heard back. Because she received another script - "Flying Over Immortality", she decided to work with Gortier. Horn co-starred in the film.
"Flying Over Immortality" is a ghost black comedy that satirizes youth worship, in which Meryl Streep and Gortier Horn play a pair of friends who are against each other because of love, and deeply portrays the suspicion and vanity of women in order to keep their youth forever.
"I think her rejection of us may have something to do with Zhong." In the office, Anne Hurd sternly told Chen Ping'an, "If you change the heroine and you go to talk to her in person as a director, I think she may change her mind." ”
"Why?" Chen Ping'an asked disdainfully, "Not to mention my relationship with Ah Hong, even if she is just an ordinary actor in our company, there is no reason to hurt our own actors for the sake of an outsider!" ”
"But she's Meryl Streep."
"So what? Substitution! I wouldn't be making movies without her? ”
"Who are you going to change?"
"Let's contact Gina Davis first."
Whether it is an actor or a movie, as long as he is nominated for an Oscar, his value and box office will be improved, and if he wins an award, he will be promoted even more. At this year's Oscars, Gina Davis won Best Supporting Actress for "Unexpected Traveler", which attracted the attention of many directors, and now she has also received many film contracts and is under consideration.
"I was afraid she would refuse. I heard that she has received a lot of film contracts now, and she is considering which one to shoot. And we...... The media has reported that the first one we looked for was Meryl Streep. ”
"It's okay, help me contact her first, make an appointment to meet, and I'll talk to her personally."
"Okay, I'll do my best to arrange it."
After this matter came to an end, Chen Ping'an asked again: "What is Lao Ka doing now?" ”
Cameron on vacation.
After the filming of "Terminator 2", the global box office has exceeded 500 million since its release, and the investors, producers, and distributors have all made a lot of money. The film was filmed for a long time, and Cameron was working hard and wanted to take a vacation for a while.
Americans are very good at enjoying it, concentrating on work when they work, and enjoying it with all their heart. Anyway, he didn't come across a better script during this time, so he just went on vacation, maybe he would have creative inspiration when he went on vacation.
"Call him back. I have a script and want to find him to direct it. ”
"How's the script? If it's not good, even if it's you, he won't give face. ”
"It's a movie that I have raised money for, and the quality is absolutely guaranteed." (To be continued......) R1292
