Chapter 217: Changing the file for the New Year, the breath of struggle!
Bai Shiqiu and Yu Dong sat face to face, and the two had nothing to say.
Actually, it's not that there are no words, but after Yu Dong finished speaking, Bai Shiqiu didn't speak, and the atmosphere was a little embarrassing.
"Lao Bai, Lao Bai, this ...... My brother also knows that this matter is a bit sudden, and I really can't stand my brother, but my brother is total, if we fight this time, what if it really happens? ”
Before, Yu Dong had already said everything, basically without reservations, and even he explained this matter clearly.
To put it simply, Yu Dong hopes that our Red Star's "Zhou Daxian" should be adjusted to the Lunar New Year.
The Chinese New Year file is definitely the best schedule for domestic movies at present, and there is no one.
At this time, there is a great opportunity to make money.
Although Red Star's films have had many successes before, they can be regarded as rare dark horses, but they are not common after all, otherwise, how could there be rumors in this circle that he is Bai Shiqiu lucky.
In fact, let's just say that "Maniac", which is currently the highest box office of Red Star, not only has a fresh plot setting but also explosive acting skills, but also that Shuangli's "Baby in Love" has made a very deep word-of-mouth warm-up for Lao Bai.
Maybe there is an element of luck, but it is mainly because of the many operations that have been done, and in retrospect, these operations are very sassy.
And the Lunar New Year file, this is definitely a gold mine, a big, big gold mine, a gold mine that everyone knows.
Do you dare to go?!
Any reasonable person must ask himself like this, there are rewards and risks, if you don't do it well, you will become cannon fodder for the Chinese New Year.
There are a lot of such cannon fodder every year, but many people don't know it, such as Mr. Chen Peisi Chen, he made several Chinese New Year movies, and each of them made money, each of them made a profit, and the profit was at least 30% or more, which he said to Bai Shiqiu personally.
But what was the result?
I can't go on, because Feng Xiaogang is better than you, the box office records you see are all Feng Xiaogang's, and Mr. Chen Peisi and Mr. Chen also make money, but the overall box office is too small, only a few million.
Of course, Mr. Chen doesn't make New Year's movies, but also because of the relationship within the system, more than 30% of the profits, but unfortunately he can't see the money.
This is still making money, and those who don't make money are even more swooped down.
Yu Dong also knows this, of course he understands what he has to face, and he is still quite sincere.
"Just Huang Jianzhong's grandson, hehe...... Lao Bai, let me tell you, brother, I could see what this grandson was thinking at the time, isn't it just for him to make such a film? What the hell! But! Lao Bai, let me tell you, as soon as he said this, I really think this is a good idea! We have such a good film now, why don't we rush it? Why don't you give it a try? Isn't it "Wu Ji"? Isn't it Director Chen? How much is he? He's made films that can't be sold! ”
It must be said that Yu Dong's words are really inspiring, very powerful, and very sincere, especially when he heard Huang Jianzhong's grandson, Bai Shiqiu almost didn't laugh.
That's right, Lao Bai is holding back a laugh.
You can go to the Chinese New Year stalls, why don't you go?
"Brother Dong, I heard that there are films coming in for the Chinese New Year and summer holidays in Hong Kong, right?"
Bai Shiqiu came to such a sentence inexplicably.
"Ahem...... Lao Bai, the news is so well-informed. But just such a sentence made Yu Dong particularly embarrassed.
The reason is also simple, there is a reason why Dong did not say it, that is, the films that Hong Kong enters the mainland now are basically taking the Bona line, that is to say, "Chow Tai Sin" is adjusted, which is also very good for Bona, and the summer file is "Initial D", in addition to a Hong Kong film, there will be one more film to deal with "Wuji", the siege, how good is this.
Bai Shiqiu debunked it, but when he clicked it, he only heard him say with a smile: "It's difficult for me to make decisions about this matter alone, so it's better to let me go back and ask the big guy, how about it?" ”
When Yu Dong heard this, he had to go back and ask?
But, he was smart and understood right away.
"I'll go with you, if there's any problem, let them scold me!"
……
Red Star Base, only this time it is not in the theater, Bai Shiqiu's personal office, that is, a small house, gathered several giants of Red Star at this time.
Zhang Mo, Zhou Shen and others, and a few others who are still performing in the theater, such as Shen Teng, Huang Bo, and Ma Li...... There are such seven or eight people, plus Bai Shiqiu and Yu Dong, this hut is very lively.
"That's the case, what do you think?"
Sit down, everyone has a cigarette, and Bai Shiqiu will tell you about it.
After all, it is a big deal, this movie "Zhou Daxian" can be said to be created collectively, and everyone argued for a long time before they took advantage of that bug, so Bai Shiqiu's approach is very popular.
Red Star Film and Television has just been reorganized, and now it is doing such a show, which really makes everyone feel like a family.
Bai Shiqiu's intentions this time are here, through this matter, gather people's hearts and gather momentum, which is very good.
"Lunar New Year?" Zhang Mo's little eyes flashed, he also said something before, that is, he couldn't act in the literature, his father asked him to film, and this guy also came to a collision schedule.
But it's okay, you can find someone else.
"This ...... That's "Wu Ji". Although Huang Bo has no status, he is also telling the truth.
That's right, "Wuji", this film was filmed last year, and the publicity that began before last year has been reported almost every week and every month.
"People have invested, 300 million?" Shen Teng said.
Specifically, it is more than 30 million US dollars, and now there are rumors that it is nearly 40 million US dollars.
A blockbuster of 300 million, even if there is some moisture in it, but who hears it and can't mutter?
Now, it is really difficult for some strong people to ask our Red Star's "Chow Tai Xian" to fight against such a blockbuster.
However, some people are very imposing.
"Afraid of what? What's the matter with you guys? Isn't it just a super blockbuster? Are we scared of Red Star? If you want me to say ......"
Zhou Shen, don't look at this guy who is skinny, but sometimes, he is very rushed.
When I was in school, I was like this, and it always gave people an unexpected energy.
It's just that even now, he hasn't become a tyrant on the set.
But there are also people who say reality.
"Those are all international stars, in terms of lineup, ......"
"Yes, besides, it's really not easy to make a New Year stall."
"There are a lot of good films."
This is indeed true, and it is normal to talk about it, but the momentum is much weaker.
Someone else came out to speak, and it was Mary.
"What's wrong with you? Cowardly? Isn't it a man? Ma Li's questioning was really powerful, and in the end, she came to Bai Shiqiu's side, "Lao Bai, I listen to you!" That ......"
The conversation changed, "It's not good if you really lose money, so it's better not to move." ”
Feelings, this girl is like this, the atmosphere is very embarrassing for a while.
"Haha......" Bai Shiqiu couldn't help it at that time, and it was time to say, "Big guy, let me say a few words." ”
Red Star here, Yu Dong seems to be Bai Shiqiu's big boss, but now that I look at it, it seems that this big boss is not doing things with domineering and other high-pressure means, but he is also powerful.
I only heard Bai Shiqiu say: "We graduated last year, and after we graduated, I took everyone all the way to the bus, just out of school, without constraints, this time it was all gone, so I threw off my arms and did it." At that time, there was a breath of struggle that I liked very much, and I could eat two more bowls of rice just by smelling it. But now, we have come to a stage where we have achieved a certain amount of success, and the breath of struggle, everyone has heard it, is it much weaker? ”
The breath of struggle?
Chicken soup, proper chicken soup, go to the bookstore at this time, a large row of such books in the best-selling column, in this era, almost all Chinese, are running forward, everyone needs to be motivated, all need to build a strong heart, chicken soup is nourishment, just like a car needs gasoline.
However, what Bai Shiqiu said at this time was very down-to-earth, which caused everyone in the room to think, even Yu Dong was the same.
He still doesn't know how many years later, Yu Dong is reminiscing about his life, always mentioning what Bai Shiqiu said this time, and always saying that this time he has benefited a lot and let him continue to struggle.
"The so-called, struggle, I think Lao Bai, maybe it was Don Quixote riding his donkey and carrying a gun to the windmill, maybe David was not afraid in the face of the giant Goryea, the former seems stupid, the latter seems to be smart, but whether stupid or smart, there is a premise, that is, courage. Big guy, I'm staying here this time, just to hope that everyone's spirit will mention it again. ”
When he was done, it seemed as if the smoke had cleared from the room.
"Let's vote on it, big guys......"
"What a fart! Just do it with them! ”
"That's right! What are you afraid of! ”
"Anyway, Lao Bai, you are the major shareholder, and you will lose a lot of money."
"Alas! I just like the affordability. ”
For a while, the atmosphere was good, and Yu Dong was also infected for the first time.
"In this way, we can't let the big guy suffer, let's give a guarantee!" As soon as these words came out, I suddenly had a strange feeling.
Bai Shiqiu smiled at this time, "That, Brother Dong, then let's talk about it." ”
"How much is the guarantee?"
"The minimum is 10 million."
"A little more, huh?"
"The cost of our film is 20 million."
When everyone heard the number of 20 million, they were a little confused at first, but they immediately echoed it seriously.
"That's right, we were filming at the time, and it really took a lot of money."
"It's very expensive in the post-production stage......"
"It's ......"
Yu Dong listened, his strange feeling was getting heavier and heavier?
At this time, Bai Shiqiu was also very strange, because he was holding back a smile.
Transferred to the Lunar New Year file, in Bai Shiqiu's opinion, do you still need to choose?
The opponent is still "Wuji".
At this time, someone came.
"Mr. Bai Shiqiu is here, right?"
He looks like a middle-aged man, speaks in a smug manner, and wears glasses.
When Bai Shiqiu saw it, he immediately smiled, "It's Mr. Cao Baoping, hello, don't call it Mr. anything, it's all white." ”
Cao Baoping, as soon as this name came out, everyone seemed to have heard of it, but they were not very familiar with it.
Bai Shiqiu introduced, "This Mr. Cao is the teacher of Beiying, you can pay attention to what you say." ”
Mr. Cao? Teacher Beiying?
"It's nothing, everyone is free. Wu Gang told me before, I'm coming here. ”
Wu Gang?
Everyone is not familiar with each other, and there is no way, Mr. Wu is still unknown.
When Bai Shiqiu was looking for the actor of "Yue Nu Jian" before, he found this 'Secretary Dakang'.
