The next day, Li Hao received a call from his agent.

"What, I auditioned?!"

He was surprised and delighted, and he couldn't wait to shout a few times to vent the excitement in his heart.

Since the release of "Dream Chaser", all the actors in it have suffered, and several leading actors originally looked at Wu Shaolin's face and starred with a cheap salary at a friendly price, but not only did they not climb the big tree of Wu Shaolin, but they were also affected by Wu Xiaofei's popularity.

These second-tier stars are like this, not to mention Li Hao, a young actor, if Fang Bo hadn't given him this opportunity, it would not be an exaggeration to say that his future was lost.

Seeing that his career as an actor had taken a turn for the better, Li Hao was so excited that he hurriedly called Fang Bo and kept saying some words of gratitude.

After struggling at the trough of his life for so long, now he finally saw a glimmer of light, and when he said that he couldn't help crying with joy when he said the back, he choked up and assured Fang Bo that he would definitely cherish this opportunity and do his best to play the role well.

With his words, Fang Bo was also relieved, let him settle down and prepare well, take advantage of the time before the start, understand the script thoroughly, and ask himself directly if he has any questions.

Li Hao naturally agreed again and again, he finally got an opportunity, and if he didn't grasp it, he really couldn't say it.

……

Li Hao is off to a good start, and the next auditions for "A Good Show" went smoothly, and important roles such as the male protagonist and the female protagonist were determined one after another.

But that's normal.

When he first wrote the script, Fang Bo was already planning for the audition, and during the more than a month he spent at home, he didn't know how many actors' materials he had read, so he drew up a complete audition list.

The actors selected by him are themselves more in line with the needs of the role, just like Yu Peng at the beginning, even if there are some shortcomings, no matter how you say it, it is above the horizontal line, and it will not be bad.

In this case, any actor who finally passes the audition is quite suitable.

It's just that due to cost constraints, the actors are not very famous, so Li Hao doesn't need to say much, in fact, even the male lead actor is not too well-known at all.

This actor used to be an actor in literary films, and he also won the actor of a foreign film festival, but the audience of literary films is really small, even if he won the actor, he did not become popular.

In fact, Fang Bo was still a little worried.

Although in terms of image, acting skills and other aspects, this person is very suitable for playing the actor Ma Jin, but he used to act in literary films and was crowned an actor, will he be proud of his identity and look down on commercial films like "A Curious"?

And there are some comedic elements in the movie, can he put down his body to make the audience laugh?

It wasn't until the moment the two met at the audition that these doubts were finally dispelled.

The actor left a very good impression on Fang Bo, he didn't have any shelves at all, he was very easy-going in receiving people and things, and the staff who guided him would get a thank you.

And his personality is not dull, and he occasionally likes to make some small jokes, which is very contrasting with the deep image in literary films in the early years.

So after trying a few scenes, Fang Bo gave him the role on the spot, and then when he signed the contract, he found that choosing him as the leading actor not only has benefits in the play, but also has a lot of benefits outside the play.

The most important thing is that his salary is exceptionally cheap.

Don't look at the halo of an actor on his head, but the actor of a literary film can't sell at the box office, and there is no traffic blessing, his salary naturally can't be raised, and the salary of a movie is usually only quoted more than 2 million.

As one of the investors in the film, Fang Bo felt very embarrassed when he signed the contract, after all, such a good actor with superb acting skills, the salary of 2 million yuan is really not much.

The audition for the movie went well, and the main cast was set in a few days, just at this time Feng Shuming had almost set up the crew.

Fang Bo handed over the audition tasks for the rest of the supporting roles to the assistant director, while he concentrated on other preparations.

……

It's the end of August.

When Fang Bo was busy with the preliminary preparations for "A Good Show", "Nightclub" also ushered in the next screening.

In fact, since mid-August, the box office potential of "Nightclub" has been almost consumed.

The attendance rate of the movie has dropped again and again, and the theater chain has also repeatedly reduced the scale of screenings, and the single-day box office has gradually dropped to hundreds of thousands, which is completely incomparable with the situation at the beginning of the release.

There is nothing to say about such a situation.

The normal trend of general movies is like this, relying on the pre-release publicity to accumulate popularity, and getting a lot of box office in the first few days of release, and then as the popularity drops rapidly, the attendance rate and single-day box office will also drop sharply.

Therefore, when a movie reaches the second half of the screening period, the box office of the ten or so days often adds up, and it is not as good as the first day.

The direction of the theater chain has always been "liking the new and hating the old", and now "Night Club" has also reached this stage, in order to move the film schedule to other films, the theater line will certainly not have the idea of extending the screening period.

As soon as the time comes, "Night Club" will be released as scheduled.

As of the day of its release on August 29, the film has received a total of 136.7 million box office.

According to the contract, the divisible box office belonging to Huarui Film and Television and Fang Bo is about 55 million, deducting the 10 million publicity and distribution costs paid in advance, and Huarui's 25% share, leaving Fang Bo with 34 million.

With so much money, even if he has to pay taxes, the rest is enough to pay the 15 million he invested in "A Good Show".

At the same time, Huarui Film and Television also sold the copyrights of several countries, and this part of Qian Huarui can only charge a little agency fee, most of which are returned to Fangbo, and there is follow-up income such as the film being launched on the online broadcast platform.

Taken together, at least twenty or thirty million can be earned for him, of course, this is before taxes.

In this way, the total after-tax income brought to him by "Nightclub" is likely to exceed 30 million.

From the preparation of the movie in February to the release in August, in just half a year, the 400,000 yuan invested by Fang Bo became 30 million, a 75-fold increase!

No wonder so many people are desperately squeezing into the entertainment industry, for no other reason, fame and fortune are really tempting.

Thinking that he was small and big, and made tens of millions of dollars with a movie, Fang Bo was inevitably excited.

It's just that the movie has just been released, and the box office payment will have to wait for a few months.

It's a staggering amount of money, but before it reaches his bank card, it's just an illusory number.

So his excitement quickly subsided, he called his parents to report the good news, and then continued to devote himself to the preparation of "A Good Show".

It is also worth mentioning that after the release of "Night Club", Huarui Film and Television applied for the Golden Bull Award.

As one of the top film awards in China and even the whole world, the results of "Nightclub" are definitely not enough to win any awards at the Golden Bull Awards, but there are still opportunities for small awards such as the Best Small and Medium-Cost Film and the Best Director's Debut Award.

After all, it's a matter of signing up for a name, and it's not bothersome, so just give it a try, maybe it's done?
