In addition to the series of movies sold to Encyclopedia without signatures, Xiao Ran also sold three scripts under his own name, and received 30% of the net profit!

If "Rich and Powerful" sold to Colorful Film Company is purely to make quick money, and "The Birth of a Word" sold to Huanyi Film Company is not only to make money, but also to have a good relationship with the Wang family, then "The Undefeated Comeback of the East" sold to Huayi Film Company is completely to repay favors.

Because Huayi Film Company is the oldest film company in the Chinese film industry, eight out of ten film actors who are currently active in this circle are basically from Huayi Film Company.

And the relationship between these actors and Huayi Film Company has always been very good, and even the current Huaxia Film Golden Dragon Award was originally funded by Huayi Film Company.

In addition, many of the organizing committee members of the Golden Dragon Awards have basically belonged to Huayi Film Company, and if the nominated film company has a holiday with Huayi Film Company, generally don't expect the judges to choose their films.

Therefore, Xiao Ran's team was able to win so many awards at the Golden Dragon Awards in April this year, and Huayi Film Company also gave a lot of face, because it knew that its films were not as good as Xiao Ran's, so it gave up a number of nominations.

And Liu Jiabi and Mai Dou, who targeted southern filmmakers at the Golden Dragon Awards, are still from Huayi Film Company, which is why they can be nominated for the Golden Dragon Awards consecutively.

These Xiao Ran also listened to his father Xiao Yuanshan after the end of the Golden Dragon Award, and in Xiao Yuanshan's description, Huayi's Wang is finally a boss who really loves movies. has been engaged in the film industry all his life, and he has not given up even if he has been losing money in the middle. So when he saw that Xiao Ran's movie was of such high quality, he also gave up the nomination for the Golden Dragon Award. And in addition to the encyclopedia, it is the first film company to find Xiao Ran to buy a real-name script!

Originally, Xiao Ran really wanted to repay this favor to Mr. Wang of Huayi Film Company, so he wrote the sequel to "Smiling Proud Jianghu", which has won many awards and has a box office record of more than 300 million, that is, the script of "The Resurgence of the Undefeated Storm in the East", to Huayi.

Although in Xiao Ran's opinion, although this "The Rise of the Undefeated East" was filmed well, the script was much weaker than the previous work, and the story of the undefeated East was actually not in the original book.

This is also the reason why Xiao Ran himself doesn't want to shoot, but the quality of the movie is still good. Coupled with the popularity of the previous work, it is not a problem to exceed 100 million at the box office.

This "The Resurgence of the Undefeated in the East" is mainly about the undefeated retreat of the East after the Black Wood Cliff, but his concubine Xue Qianxun wanted to reorganize the Sun and Moon God Cult, so he waited for his appearance in the name of the East Undefeated, and the Admiral Gu Changfeng of the Navy Master met the East Undefeated on the Black Wood Cliff, because he learned that there were countless people in the rivers and lakes who were pretending to be themselves, so the East was undefeated and finally decided to re-emerge from the rivers and lakes and start again......

But in this world. Xiao Ran did not create the martial arts novel "Smiling Proud Jianghu", so the audience did not compare, but it was better, but it can be seen from the actual plot. The plot of this movie is actually not as smooth as its predecessor, nor is it as classic as its predecessor.

However, as a sequel, this "The Comeback of the Undefeated East" also has a certain amount of interest. Especially the final battle, at least it was beautiful and shocking enough.

You have science. I have miraculous powers!

Although this line sounds a little funny, it is also very domineering.

In addition, the script is actually remarkable. For example, in the beginning of the plot of the Miao District to worship the undefeated East, we can see the sadness of the confused people who believe blindly.

In order to defend the god they don't even know what it is, they are so fearless and persistently sacrifice their lives, using this meaningless act to fulfill their belief in the undefeated East, but they don't know that the real East Undefeated is actually standing in front of them.

Undefeated in the East: "Undefeated in the East is just a person, why do they think he is a god?" They don't know too much about the undefeated East. ”

Gu Changfeng: "They don't need to understand that Dongfang is undefeated, all they need is a ...... Wish. ”

Such lines actually represent that although this movie is not as good as its predecessor, it is still due to its depth.

And Xiao Ran handed over the script of this movie to Huayi, in fact, he planned to let Huayi make a profit, in fact, this movie is strong with the limelight of the previous work, and the quality of its own script is not weak, so as long as Lin Qingqing is invited to continue to play Dongfang Undefeated, I believe that the investment within 50 million is enough, and it is calculated as a publicity expense.

Xiao Ran is also confident that even if this movie is an investment of less than 50 million, it can at least gain more than 100 million box office when it is made, which can be described as a stable film investment.

But now Xiao Ran looked at Wen Jiàn on the table, he could only smile bitterly: "The shot is an investment of 100 million, I don't know if it counts as a publicity expense, Huayi is really the handiwork of a large company......"

From the investigation of the Shaw Film Company, it was learned that Huayi planned to invest more than 100 million yuan to shoot this "The Undefeated Storm of the East", and the script was naturally filmed according to what Xiao Ran gave, but in addition to Lin Qingqing's Undefeated Oriental, two other top actors were also invited.

Gu Changfeng's role was played by actor Wei Dajiang, who has won two Chinese Film Golden Dragon Awards, although the salary of the entire film industry has been reduced, but according to Xiao Ran's estimate, at least 15 million was spent!

Xue Qianxun's role invited Shao Fangfang, the heroine of the Chinese Film Golden Dragon Award three years ago, to play the role of the actress, the actress's salary has always been not as high as that of the actor, plus he has only won the Golden Dragon Award once, so Shao Fangfang's salary is about five million!

Coupled with Lin Qingqing's salary of more than 5 million, then the salary of these three actors alone accounts for a quarter of the budget in this drama, and Xiao Shi also received news that the fight scene of this movie Huayi's requirements need to be more shocking, so Xiao Ran seems that the so-called investment of 100 million may really be a simple shooting budget......

So now even Xiao Ran himself can't predict what the box office result of this movie will be, and even Xiao Ran is not sure whether it will be a profit or a loss!

can only say that such an investment and lineup to shoot "The Rise of the Undefeated in the East", Xiao Ran himself may not dare to think about it, he can only say that Huayi's Mr. Wang is too good......

……

Return to Xiao Ran's own films.

"Happy Battlefield" was released for a total of 39 days, and the final box office accumulated more than 423 million, although it is not the highest in Xiao Ran's movies, but it has already broken the records of "Dear Child" and "Taiping", which can be regarded as winning another beautiful battle on the real-life movies of the three major theater wars.

For this reason, Lu Yuesheng of Yida Cinema Line held a celebration banquet for this movie, and specially invited many filmmakers to participate, Xiao Ran, Liu Kui and Yuan Biao, as the main creators of the movie, naturally had to give face to participate.

Xiao Ran knows very well that this move is actually showing off, because this year's atmosphere of real-life movies was first initiated by Encyclopedia's "Dear Child", and then Jiayi Film Company also echoed with a "Taiping", and the box office of both movies was very good.

And what no one expected was a "Happy Battlefield" that came later, and the box office performance was even better, which was completely a resounding slap in the face of Encyclopedia and Jiayi in the eyes of many filmmakers.

That's why Lu Yuesheng couldn't wait to hold a celebration banquet and invited the fifth senior brother Wu Zhengying to the scene.

At the scene of the celebration banquet, the chips were staggered, the cups were exchanged, and everyone drank very happily!

What shocked Xiao Ran the most was that there were no outsiders and reporters at the scene, so during the whole process, Wu Zhengying and Lu Xueyan were like a couple in love, especially the feeling in their eyes, which really didn't look like a disguise.

"Brother Wu, don't drink too much wine, eat more food, this lobster is very delicious."

"Thank you Xueyan, you are so good to me."

The sweet actions of the two made many people at the scene feel a chill, just like Xiao Ran imagined, Wu Zhengying, who was holding a peachwood sword and a talisman seal, caught up with a problematic Lu Xueyan, the scene where the two were together was simply strange and fell in love with strange things, and they were already drunk just thinking about it.

And more importantly, taking this opportunity, Lu Yuesheng also has a very good attitude towards Wu Zhengying, as if he was treating his future son-in-law.

It turned out that Xiao Ran thought that the two of them might be acting like this to help the Lu family, that is, to make the masses believe that Lu Xueyan is no longer a woman with a problematic orientation, and it is also convenient for Lu Yuesheng to inherit in the future, after all, although he is the head of the Yida Group, but if the entire group is handed over to Lu Xueyan, Lu Xueyan's ridiculous things in the past alone will no longer be able to convince the public.

So now that Lu Yuesheng is still able to support his body, he naturally hopes to reshape Lu Xueyan's image, so even if he finds her a disguised boyfriend, it is very normal in Xiao Ran's opinion.

In fact, at the earliest, Lu Yuesheng and his wife took a fancy to Xiao Ran, especially when Xiao Ran's achievements were getting higher and higher, whether it was true or not, as long as the outside world thought that Lu Xueyan was really good with Xiao Ran, then Lu Xueyan's image would be a 180-degree reversal.

But after all, Xiao Ran has already seen through their thoughts, and he has no intention of making trouble for himself again, for Xiao Ran in this world, one Tang Yun is enough, and the thousands of charms in the entertainment industry are fake, but he is not willing to live up to Tang Yun's five years of hard waiting in his previous life.

So Xiao Ran didn't dare to accept this tenderness, so he only sent Lu Xueyan to the two film companies of Zhengdong and Zhengying, and played a lot of funny comedy roles, but he didn't expect that it seemed to have contributed to a good thing! (To be continued......)
