"Her eyes, her eyes, seem to be like stars shining, seeing and seeing and seeing panic...... The bright moon spits light, the yin wind blows the willow lane, it is a female ghost looking for a lover, who is willing to love the sad ghost bride, accompany the female ghost to worship the moonlight late at night! The moon in the sky doesn't want to look at ......"

After experiencing the horror scene of recovering zombies at the beginning, the movie "Mr. Zombie" has returned to the scene of the ordinary early Republic of China, but it is composed of jokes caused by several misunderstandings, which is more humorous and comedy than ordinary supernatural horror movies, which is used as a harmony.

However, after such a new and somewhat eerie episode, the rhythm of the movie seems to have changed again, it turned out that Qiusheng gave the female ghost Dong Xiaoyu a few notes because of his playfulness when he was on the incense, and he was taken by the female ghost.

Then there is the plot of Qiusheng and Wencai tricking the cheap man played by the second senior brother Lei Xiaolong, and the cousin of Ren Tingting, who the two admire.

In the end, in addition to the decisive battle to subdue the zombies, there are two side plots above the two apprentices, which can be regarded as two characters with a lot of scenes, Qiusheng is fascinated by ghosts, and Wencai is poisoned by corpses, and the two of them have their own opportunities.

But in terms of Qiusheng, although Xiao Ran feels that Seventh Senior Brother Yaoyang is a more suitable actor to play the role of a villain, because his whole person is full of an arrogant and uninhibited feeling, but he is biased towards a more gloomy feeling, and it is not suitable for a role that is too upright.

But in the play, although Qiusheng is the apprentice of Uncle Jiu and his skills are also very good, the setting of the whole character is relatively slippery and perverse. It is also in line with the temperament of the actor.

However, the role of Wencai made Xiao Ran feel a little entangled. Because this character is actually a bit silly and stupid, and although the sixth senior brother Yuan Biao worked very hard to find the feeling of this character. is also very well interpreted, but his own temperament is really not too consistent with the characters.

So Xiao Ran somewhat felt that the actor was not very well chosen, but the biggest attraction of this drama is still on Uncle Jiu, and the fifth senior brother Wu Zhengying acted very well and the actor's temperament is also very suitable for this character, the director zhì The audience's attention is on him, but he doesn't feel anything because of the role of Wencai, but he will not be very impressed with this actor.

Although this was a mistake by Xiao Ran, it did not have any big impact, but it delayed a role.

Regret at the same time. Fortunately for Xiao Ran, he had already understood what role was the most suitable for Sixth Senior Brother Yuan Biao, because Xiao Ran finally found that his temperament was a character who was biased towards righteousness, that is, the kind of role that was righteous and awe-inspiring and upheld the law and discipline might be more suitable for him.

How to arrange Yuan Biao in the future, Xiao Ran also began to have ideas.

And the box office of the premiere of this "Mr. Zombie" finally reached more than 19 million, although it is not as good as the most popular "The Legend of Ip Man" and "Smiling Proud Jianghu", but after all, these two movies have set off a kung fu craze this year because of the promotional MV of "Kung Fu STYLE" with a click of 1.5 billion, and it just so happens that these two movies have just hit this craze.

However, the premiere box office of more than 19 million can temporarily rank third in this year's premiere box office record. It also killed other film companies in seconds, and the subject matter is the most unpopular supernatural movie, so it still caused a very strong craze for supernatural zombie movies.

And the actors in this movie are almost all new actors who have made their debuts, but their acting skills are very solid. This also led to their names gradually becoming known to the public!

After "Mr. Zombie", Xiao Ran's name began to become more and more well-known to people in the film industry, although the previous "Smiling Proud Jianghu" made him a god-level screenwriter. But that's just the public's coaxing, and those who are really mixed in the film industry have seen too many newcomers who are on fire. These people often achieve temporary success because they have the right time, the right place and the right person to get all three.

But there are too many examples. After a piece of fire, he immediately began to pretend to be a big brand, asking for a big cast, but the essence of how to tell a good story has been thrown to the country of Guava, so after becoming a hit, it began to sink directly!

So this is why after Xiao Ran's new supernatural zombie movie "Mr. Zombie" premiered and entered the top three of the year, people in the film industry began to recognize him.

Because the first film won with the most neglected supernatural movie, and there was no exaggerated publicity before the premiere, and the investment was only 30 million, but it still achieved such results.

And because it is not a kung fu martial arts movie, it also proves that Xiao Ran did not eat his old book, but made achievements in a new film field!

This also means that Xiao Ran's success in the film industry is no longer as simple as accidental, and this newcomer in the film industry who became an instant hit may continue to be popular in the future.

And this is why Xiao Ran was willing to use 40% of the dividend to let Yida Group help set up Xingyi City Film Company, in addition to using Yida Group's cinema resources and official resources, more is to use Lu Yuesheng's funds to help him cultivate his team.

Now "Mr. Zombie" has not only been successful at the box office when it premiered in China, but also very hot in Southeast Asia and island countries, except for Europe and the United States, because they are used to the vampire model, so they are not so buying, and they cannot enter the top ten at the box office for the time being, but it has also caused a lot of sensation, letting foreigners know that supernatural movies can still be filmed like this!

Of course, Xiao Ran's idea is to use the actors trained in Xingyi City to open a new company, which will be invested by himself, and outsiders are not allowed to insert it!

For example, now Wu Zhengying is qualified enough to open his own film company, a company specializing in shooting supernatural movies, and Xiao Ran is helping Xingyi City shoot at least five movies every year in exchange for Lu Yuesheng's support, which is one of the conditions that the two sides discussed before, so in this regard, Lu Yuesheng is actually acquiescing.

In other words, Xiao Ran helps Yida Group's Xingyicheng Film Company to shoot five movies every year, and Yida Group must support Xiao Ran to wholly open other film companies, which is a condition negotiated between the two.

Of course, it seems that Xiao Ran has suffered a loss, and can only get 40% of the box office revenue of Xingyi City's movies, but don't forget, in addition to making movies with good scripts and good actors, the most important thing is publicity!

Only a strong publicity campaign can ensure that more audiences know that a brand new movie is released, and will be encouraged to go to the cinema to see it, which is why "Mr. Zombie" will not do as well as "The Legend of Ip Man" at the box office.

Because the publicity of the two dramas is not at the same level at all, the premiere box office of "Mr. Zombie" is only 60% of that of "The Legend of Ip Man", which does not mean that this movie is inferior to "The Legend of Ip Man", but because there is no strong publicity.

Therefore, Xiao Ran's cooperation with Yida Group is to use the financial investment and strong publicity of Yida Group, because with the cash in his hand now, it is simply impossible to support the frequency of two or three new movies a month on average as at present.

Moreover, using the resources of Yida Group to cultivate Xiao Jiaban's team, and then forming a new film company, is also a relatively stable approach, because even if Xiao Ran is sure that what he wants to make is a good movie, after all, he is in another world.

Even Xiao Ran can't have a foresight, and can know whether every movie will be made or lost after it is made, after all, no matter which world it is, are there still few classics that have been buried?

Now that "Mr. Zombie" has created a boom in supernatural zombie movies, Xiao Ran has naturally begun to use the resources of Yida Group to form a new film company according to the agreement reached with Yida Group.

Jeongyoung Films!

A company specializing in shooting supernatural movies, and although Lu Yuesheng, who had spoken before before, was reluctant to let Xiao Ran be a gold-absorbing machine, he was also afraid that Xiao Ran would be forced to be in a hurry, and everyone would not benefit, so he still abided by the agreement, agreed and sent someone to congratulate him first.

In this way, Xiao Ran started the first step in the construction of his film empire, among the members of the Xiao family's class, the first to come out was not the handsome elder brother Lei Xiaohu, nor the father Xiao Yuanshan who played Ip Man, but the fifth senior brother Wu Zhengying, who was young and old and always liked superstition!

On November 20th, the ninth day of the release of "Mr. Zombie", the total box office has reached more than 80 million, and I believe that it is not a problem to break 100 million, and major theaters have also begun to increase the number of films scheduled for "Mr. Zombie".

And at the newly established Zhengying Film Company, Xiao Ran received a special guest.

That is Tao Huawen of Yida Group, Lu Yuesheng's wife, many times about the movie part of Yida Group, it is this Mrs. Lu who is making a decision.

Ordinary women may think that they can take Xiao Ran under their umbrella and become a cash cow for their own company, but Tao Huawen is a smart woman, she knows that with Xiao Ran's current position in the music world, she will force him to be anxious at most, that is, not to make movies, which will always do more harm than good to Yida Group.

Therefore, there must be a scale between mutual cooperation, the two sides can be mutually beneficial, and such cooperation can last for a long time, and now Xiao Ran's position in the film industry is only afraid that it will become more and more consolidated, and if you want to control him as a newcomer, it is absolutely impossible, which is recognized by Tao Huawen.

So after Xiao Ran established Zhengying Film Company, not only did the two sides not turn their faces, but Tao Huawen also went to Xiao Ran's film company in person, in addition to congratulations, there are some things I want to discuss with Xiao Ran in detail! (To be continued......)
