Chapter 183: Wen Dong is in action
New Year's stalls are always matched with laughter, and the earliest Chinese New Year films originated in Xiangjiang in the last century.
Aiming at the moment of the New Year, there are happy events at home, Wishing you prosperity, and New Year's wealth... Anyway, if you put a movie with auspicious words such as Fulu and Suxi in the cinema, you can make a lot of money.
The most proficient Chinese New Year film in the mainland is undoubtedly Feng Dacang, since the late 90s, he has not missed every year's New Year stalls, but he is still working on a big project this year - the night banquet, and the crazy racing car is left in the entire mainland market.
As soon as the crazy racing car was released, the box office rose like a small rocket.
Compared with the crazy stones, this crazy racing car is still a nest of stupid thieves, but it can make the audience laugh in their hearts.
As for the crazy wedding that was released at the same time, I don't know which gutter I was thrown into.
With this momentum, the crazy racing box office went forward until it was released, winning 170 million at the box office.
You know, the cost of this film is only 10 million.
In addition to the dividends of the issuer and the investor, after the layers of pumping, the money that falls into the company is also a lot of money.
"Crazy Stone", "Embroidered Spring Knife", and "Crazy Racing" have three consecutive movies with a box office of over 100 million, which has made Ning Hao's worth rise.
Now the investors of the studio are not only a line on Liu Che's side, but all major investors have come to the door, and they are almost going to break the threshold of Wen Dong, as long as it is taken by Ning Hao, no matter what kind of shooting it is, they are willing to give money.
sent away a wave of investors who tried to cooperate, and Wen Dong was a little tired and couldn't straighten his waist.
"Didn't I get you an assistant? And hands-on. Ji Yun pondered that he must expand the scale of the studio to make money this time, and he couldn't point to this veteran doing this and that every day.
"What does a young man who has just debuted understand, he has to give him an example." Wen Dong smiled at Ji Yun, "It's okay, that's how I got through it at the time." ”
"How's Yu Min's contract?"
"I'm still in contact, but the attitude over there is good, and I should be able to sign it before the original start date."
Ji Yun nodded, Wen Dong's efficiency didn't have to worry about him.
"Huang Bo and Ning Hao left yesterday, saying that they were going to find a feeling."
Ji Yun was stunned for a moment, "Looking for a feeling?" What does it feel like? ”
"Isn't he going to shoot that no man's land, the book has already been written, and he wants Huang Bo to integrate into the role first."
Originally, Ning Hao disdained to use this method, but Guan Hu had already set a good example for him, and the preparation cycle of the two movies of bullfighting and killing was even longer than the shooting cycle. Ji Yun and Huang Bo stayed in the deep mountains and old forests for three or four months before they let the characters integrate into themselves.
"Was the book written so quickly?"
Ji Yun is also a little strange, a few years ago, he heard that the script in the no-man's land was still being polished, and he caught up with the crazy racing publicity, so he asked the screenwriter to review and contact Gao Qunshu, and reasoned that with Ning Hao's lazy character, the book should not be completed so quickly.
""West Wind Spirit" failed, Gao Qunshu couldn't listen to the persuasion, and insisted on writing it himself."
"Expected." Ji Yun nodded, not surprised at all.
This book is purely a hot head of the tall group of trees.,Now it's a prototype.。
He originally wanted to take the book to the Wang brothers to invest, but the two of them were not fools, and they picked up a lot of faults in this book, so they prevaricated it with various reasons.
has to wait for the wind to explode before he can start the project with the fame brought by this gust of wind.
At that time, this book will be even more difficult for others to get into.
"Then I won't act, the twisted melon is not sweet."
"You can see it." Wen Dong glanced at Ji Yun with slanted eyes and said sarcastically. "You're basically unemployed right now."
"Good books are not available all the time."
Ji Yun will not accept some bad scripts in order to maintain exposure, once he has enough money to spend, he has invested in a few stocks, bought a few locations that will appreciate in the future and wait for the money to be collected; Second, his mood to win the award is indeed a little urgent, not to mention winning the award in these broken books, even the finalists are enough to choke.
Wen Dong patted his head, and suddenly remembered something: "By the way, don't shoot the Zhao orphans, that book is destined to hit the street." ”
Ji Yun raised his eyebrows, "How can you tell?" Did they send you a script? ”
"The script hasn't been sent yet, and it's not finished yet."
"Haven't finished writing yet?"
This drama has been established since Wuji, and it will be a month before the original start time, and the script has not yet been written.
"What did you hear?"
"I heard that two days ago, Brother Chen Kai resigned the two screenwriters Gao Xuan and Ren Baoru and wrote the script himself."
"No wonder."
In his previous life, he had a sense of tearing when he watched the orphans of the Zhao family, the first third was an excellent story, and the last two-thirds were completely self-congratulatory works.
There is an obvious dividing point in the story, after the orphan is rescued and the baby grows into a child, the whole story becomes fragmented.
Now it seems that it is the problem of Chen Kaige's operation.
"Director Kai Ge still don't touch the script, the composition and scheduling skills are very good, why do you always work hard in areas that you are not good at." Wen Dong also felt a little pity, after all, no one wanted to make a movie like "Farewell My Concubine", and the director fell into the quagmire.
In the final analysis, it is still the Zhao orphan screenwriter who is not tough enough.
The screenwriter of Farewell My Concubine is Lu Wei, and he can't get involved if he wants to.
These big directors always don't pay much attention to screenwriting.
"That means that all three movies have failed."
He didn't mention Di Renjie's Heavenly Empire, but there shouldn't be any good news from him.
"That's the way it is." Wen Dong nodded. "Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire is directed by Xu Ke, and most of the teams that should be used are from Xiangjiang."
Indeed, except for Da Bingbing and Deng Chao, who are highly praised by Huayi, most of the other characters in the movie are Xiangjiang actors.
"Our mainland actors are really not competitive in the eyes of these directors in Xiangjiang, and local actors can't use them, they just like this market."
Wen Dong's words were to the point, and even a little explicit.
One thing to say, if the territory of Xiangjiang could be a hundred times larger, there would be no decline.
Wen Dong rubbed his chin, suddenly remembered something, looked at Ji Yun, and asked without blinking, "How is your department's apprenticeship?" ”
"It's pretty good, I think I put in 100 percent effort."
"That's not what you mean, how are you messing with them?"
"Xiangjiang Circle?"
"Hmm!" Wen Dong couldn't stop nodding.
"It's very good, Liu Tianwang said that I can open up the market in Xiangjiang with this film."
Wen Dong pondered for a long time, his fingers kept tapping on the table, "You must go to this year's Academy Awards." ”
"The Academy Awards haven't announced the shortlist yet."
"I'll leave this to me, you go back and prepare first."
"Preparing for your acceptance speech?"
Wen Dong rolled his eyes, "You think of me as a superman, don't you?" I'll ask you to get ready for the red carpet. ”
