After "New Love" won the Best Movie at the Golden Dragon Awards, the box office ushered in a new round of skyrocketing.

Many audiences who didn't watch literary movies will see a few more big words on the poster of "New Love" after arriving at the cinema: Best Film at the 30th Chinese Film Golden Dragon Awards.

So with a curious attitude, many people will choose to buy tickets to see how "New Love" is filming, including many audiences who fell asleep in the cinema after watching Xiao Ran and Wang Wei's "East Evil and West Poison" before, will hold their trust in Xiao Ran and give Xiao Ran a chance again.

As a result, many audiences, both men and women, left the screening hall with tears in their eyes!

"New Love", which was finally released for 45 days, began to climb powerlessly after the box office finally broke through the billion mark, and finally drew up and down at the level of about one billion and fifty million.

But even so, a literary film that can achieve a box office of one billion has still become the focus of attention all over the world, and "North American Film Weekly" even used the poster of the movie "New Love" as the cover of the weekly.

In addition to the success of "New Love", Xiao Ran is still releasing three movies, one "God of Gamblers" has been released for three and a half weeks, and the total box office has exceeded 780 million, and it is very likely to break through the billion mark again.

In addition, after landing on the island country with the police story trilogy, Yuan Biao, who swept the box office charts and had a total box office of more than 5 billion Chinese yuan in the world, began to set off again after a period of rest. This time it was Xiao Ran who wrote the script "Police Story 4: Simple Mission".

This time, the scene is even larger, and it is directly related to nuclear weapons. Most of the scenes are also set in foreign countries, which can be regarded as an international masterpiece of Shaw Film Company going abroad!

At this time, the film was in the midst of intense shooting. After Yuan Biao participated in the Golden Dragon Awards, he soon left Huaxia and continued to Russia, where the movie was filmed!

Finally, it is worth mentioning that there is another movie series that the audience originally liked and acknowledged very much, and that is the Mr. Zombie series.

"Mr. Zombie 3: Mr. Phantom", which had soared to 650 million at the box office in half a month, continued to create a miracle in the box office market, and now a month has passed, and the total box office of the movie has reached nearly 900 million.

You must know that the original supernatural zombie movie also belonged to a very unpopular and niche movie theme, but after Xiao Ran and Wu Zhengying filmed this theme, they added settings such as zombies, female ghosts, demon babies, warlocks, and evil arts. and many elements such as holding your breath to avoid zombies, glutinous rice zombies, fried ghosts, bat arrays and other elements, supernatural zombie films began to take a turn.

And from the box office, although the average attendance rate of "Mr. Zombie 3: Mr. Phantom" has begun to decline, and the number of scheduled screenings has also been reduced to two shows per day and three shows on weekends, as long as the release time is extended to about 40 days, it should not be a problem to exceed one billion!

It's just a pity that Wu Zhengying, who became Lu Yuesheng's son-in-law, would normally enter Yida Group under Lu Yuesheng's arrangement. And gradually within a year, sit in the position of chairman of Yida!

In other words, it may be difficult for the audience to see the figure of the zombie Taoist Wu Zhengying on the big screen in the future, but for Wu Zhengying, there is no need to be displaced. The life of an actor day and night may also be a pleasure!

Although being a star and an actor is very glamorous on the surface, in fact, where is the chairman of a listed company popular?

Even Xiao Ran is now reducing his own directing and making movies. Try to cultivate a suitable successor, and you are only responsible for writing the script. Making a movie is too energy-consuming, although Xiao Ran is young, he doesn't want to drag his body down!

However, Wu Zhengying is about to retire from the film industry. It will also bring a series of chain reactions, such as the operation of Zhengying Film Company, one of Xiao Ran's three major film companies, which specializes in making supernatural zombie movies, will have problems.

Of course, it's not a big problem for the time being, because the first three parts of the Mr. Zombie series have all been filmed, and the first batch of the most loyal viewers has also been saved for Zhengying Film Company!

Next, according to the original shooting arrangement, Zhengying Film Company will shoot "Mr. Zombie 4: Uncle Zombie".

It is worth mentioning that I am very fortunate that Mr. Zombie did not star in the original arrangement of the fourth part, because in Xiao Ran's script, this "Mr. Zombie 4: Uncle Zombie" mainly tells the story of the four-eyed Taoist played by Liu Kui.

Although it is also a supernatural zombie movie, it is not starring Wu Zhengying's ninth uncle!

In this movie, it is mainly the story of the four-eyed Taoist and his apprentice and the neighbor Master Ikkyu, who has a female apprentice Jingjing who has just visited and has a misunderstanding with the four-eyed Michijo's apprentice Jia Le, and the Taoist and the master have become happy enemies, often fighting over trivial things, full of entertainment.

And then the Chizuru Taoist took the royal zombie and the black servant to return to Beijing and passed through here, but the zombie who was hit by the thunder and lightning finally turned into a corpse, and the four-eyed Taoist and the master Ichiyu and the two apprentices could only be forced to fight the zombies......

Although there is no Uncle Nine in this movie, it is still exciting, but after the release, some viewers may not be used to it, although Wu Zhengying's zombie Taoist is irreplaceable, but as long as a movie is made wonderfully, the influence of the actors can be great or small, it depends on how the script is arranged......

The biggest case is none other than the two "Journey to the West" in Xiangjiang in his previous life, the first one was starred by Zhang Weijian, who was known as Xiaoxingye at the time, and received super high ratings, for which Zhang Weijian felt that his fixed salary was too bad, because the "Journey to the West" he starred in at that time was mainly filmed by TVB TV, and the actors were paid a fixed salary......

So Zhang Weijian boycotted because of this, and it seemed that he was almost hidden, but when the second "Journey to the West" was filmed in the end, TVB TV boldly used Chen Haoming to play the Monkey King, and finally had the same high ratings.

This also shows that the audience will indeed have a certain dependence on the actors, but a superb screenwriter and director will try their best to dilute the influence of the actors in their works, and use strong storytelling and pictures to attract the audience to participate in it.

And Liu Kui is now vaguely beginning to show the demeanor that a mature director should have, so Xiao Ran plans to temporarily merge Zhengying Film Company and Zhengdong Film Company, with Liu Kui as the leader, and the senior brother Lei Xiaohu and the third senior brother Jinbao will assist from the side!

……

"Hello Mr. Xiao!"

After arranging the situation of Zhengying Film Company, Xiao Ran received an inexplicable phone call the next day.

"Hello, may I ask who you are?"

You must know that not many people know Xiao Ran's phone number now, and the other party obviously knows him, so Xiao Ran feels a little strange.

"Mr. Xiao is busy, I am Xiang Tianyou of Yifeng Film Company, and I cooperated with you in the filming of "The Supreme Thirty-six Plans: Stealing the Sky and the Sun", I don't know if you have any impression?"

When the other party said this, Xiao Ran also understood that in addition to selling three scripts to the three major film companies on the road, Red Star, Dongxing and Yum, he also had some cooperation with several other film companies on the road.

Among them, there are three families, although their power is not as good as the three major film companies, but there is a big water hose behind them to ensure that the film's funds are stable, so Xiao Ran chose to cooperate with them.

And this Xiang Tianyou is the director of Yifeng Film Company who is responsible for filming his own "Supreme Thirty-six Plans: Stealing the Day".

To be honest, Xiang Tianyou gave Xiao Ran a good impression, he was polite, according to his own words, he had been a dragon and tiger martial artist in Yanjing since he was a child, and he had been bullied, so he joined the club in desperation, just to seek protection.

After joining the club, Xiang Tianyou is still honestly making movies, and Yifeng, a club that has always had a decent force, has various channels for money laundering, and the film company was once opened by their previous generation to launder money.

However, the situation in the film industry was generally sluggish, so film companies rarely made movies anymore, and until recently, everyone felt that the second spring of the film industry had come, so they found Xiao Ran one after another.

Xiang Tianyou also found Xiao Ran after the three major film companies, and Xiao Ran was very impressed by him at that time, this person does have his own ideas and pursuits, although he is a member of the community, he understands that making movies is much better than mixing clubs, so he has been concentrating on learning how to make movies.

And this time I just had the opportunity to get the funds given by the club to shoot his first movie, so Xiang Tianyou cherished this cooperation with Xiao Ran very much, out of appreciation for him and affirmation of his shooting style, Xiao Ran wrote the script of "The Supreme Thirty-six Plans: Stealing the Sky and the Day" to him after watching some of the short films he shot.

Although Xiang Tianyou is several years older than Xiao Ran, in the face of Xiao Ran, an upstart in the entertainment industry, Xiang Tianyou still shows full respect!

And Xiao Ran didn't want to say too much about the scene, so he said directly: "I'm sorry, God bless!" Actually, I also want to support our film on the spot, but you also know that because of your Yifeng background, I don't want to get too involved, so I'm sorry! ”

Xiang Tianyou seems to have expected this result: "It's okay, I understand Mr. Xiao's concerns, so I wish our movie a big hit at the box office!" ”

Xiao Ran said sincerely: "I also hope that the movie can be a big hit, and I hope that your first movie can be successful, God bless me to say something from my heart, you are a talent who makes movies, I hope you will be firm in the path in your heart, and you will succeed if you stick to it, I also believe that people with dreams will have noble people who are willing to ......help you wherever they go."

Xiang Tianyou on the other end of the phone couldn't help but choke up a little when he heard this sincere sentence, you must know how a character like Xiao Ran had ever encouraged a newcomer so much?

"Thank you, Mr. Xiao! I'll be sure to take your words to heart. (To be continued......)
