Chapter 374: Female Assistant and Female Apprentice (Ask for Subscription Support!) )
…
Whether it is Xiang Chun or Qi Yutong, for Xu Kai, they are all insignificant and insignificant little people, especially after they received Qi Qiaoqiao's 5 million and left Hengdian, it is even less worth mentioning, even if their love is quite legendary.
Since Xu Kai was released from prison, in the past seven years, Xu Kai seems to have been busy, and there is no idle moment.
Although, whether physically or mentally, Xu Kaiquan did not feel tired.
But Xu Kai still felt that he had to rest for a while, after all, money is endless, and he has now become the richest man in the world, and there is no shortage of money at all.
Therefore, after returning to Hengdian, Xu Kai was ready to rest for a while, accompany his women, and also accompany his large number of children, lest they be like Xu Mai and not close to Xu Kai at all.
Moreover, although Xu Kai still looks like he is in his twenties on the surface, the real situation is that Xu Kai will be thirty-eight soon, and he is about to go to the four people.
If it weren't for the extravagance, the Marvel Universe would still be inseparable from Xu Kai, Xu Kai still has a few movies to make, Xu Kai is ready to retire, and then take his women and children to indulge in life.
Even, Xu Kai has recently been preparing to buy a private yacht or even a private island.
And yet—
Xu Kai wants to rest, but those who still want to count on Xu Kai to make money don't want Xu Kai to rest.
Three years ago, after Xu Kai focused his film development on Hollywood, the domestic film box office market was almost dominated by Hollywood movies (to be precise, by Xu Kai's Hollywood movies).
For Xu Kai, he must make money no matter what, and because he can better earn money in North America, Europe, and other countries and regions in the world, he will earn more.
But for domestic film companies, this is a disaster - a disaster that they simply can't change.
You must know that even "Shangqi" and "Shangqi 2", two Hollywood movies that are mainly Chinese, and are mainly Hollywood movies shot in China, if they want to enter the domestic film box office market, they have to go through the channel of imported films.
In this way, it is natural that they have to be monopolized by the distribution companies with the prefix of the national character, and these private film companies are no longer greedy, and they can't eat it.
Let's put it this way, in the past three or four years, CCTV has relied on the release of movies related to Xu Kai (starring and participating in Xu Kai, Xu Kai participating in the production, and Xu Kai investing in the production), making a lot of money, and living a comfortable life.
Looking at the private film companies who followed Xu Kai to make a lot of money in the past, those days were very tight - it can be said that their living space was almost squeezed out of CCTV, and the stock prices all fell "boom", and some film companies simply went bankrupt.
It was precisely because the life of these private film companies was so difficult at that time that Brother Film Company, Aina Film Company, and Guangguang Film Company took the lead in joining forces with Kyushu, Sihai and other film companies to buy the follow-up copyright of "Detective Chinatown" at a sky-high price of 5 billion, preparing to save the market.
What Wang Jun, Yu Dongdong and others never expected was that "Detective Chinatown 3", which was estimated to have a box office of 7 billion, only won more than 30 billion at the box office.
That's it, because of "Detective Chinatown" and "Detective Chinatown 2" and Xu Kai's huge popularity.
Here's how it works.
"Detective Chinatown 3" did become the box office champion of the Spring Festival holiday with a box office of nearly 3.6 billion two years ago, and on the second day of its release, the box office broke 1.5 billion, breaking the first-day box office record of a single film in the Chinese market, the single-day box office record of domestic films, and the pre-sale box office record of film history, and its opening weekend box office was as high as 397 million beautiful gold, becoming the world's first at that time.
In addition, the box office of "Detective Chinatown 3" reached 660 million on the day of its release, and the score at that time was 6.8 points.
However, as the box office rises step by step, breaking various box office records one after another, the reputation of "Detective Chinatown 3" is getting lower and lower day by day.
To be honest, objectively speaking, if you look at it purely from the perspective of comedy and plot, several domestic comedy directors who have thoroughly studied Xu Kai's style and gathered the heads of all families to produce "Detective Chinatown 3" and the previous two are not too far behind.
Let's talk about the overall look and feel first, the funny effect is actually not bad, the overall production is also very exquisite, a lot of explanations are also done well, the shooting technique is very old, basically the level of the first two is on the same level, it can be said to be a decent film.
However, putting aside the logic of being funny and celebrating the New Year, from the perspective of detective films or detective films, the problems of "Detective Chinatown 3" are also obvious.
To put it simply, the overall design of "Detective Chinatown 3" is to be funny and funny, many places are not natural enough, the actors' performances are too violent, and the details of the case are too rough, and in the end, because they want too much, they actually spill all kinds of information directly in front of the audience, which forms a certain degree of pleasure in solving the case, but too much background and clues are explained very sloppily and roughly, resulting in a lot of unreasonable places that look good on the surface, but are actually unreasonable.
In such a situation, the audience's perception will have a relatively large sense of disobedience, and the final result of word-of-mouth collapse is not surprising.
It can be said that "Detective Chinatown 3" was messed up by these people who want to make money too much and are too greedy, not that the follow-up copyright of "Detective Chinatown" is really not worth 5 billion.
If "Detective Chinatown 3" hadn't been smashed by these people, they would have been able to live a good life in the past few years by relying on the "Detective Chinatown" series, how could they be so young?
Far from it.
The good thing is that -
Capital has the power of capital.
A group of film companies first took advantage of the audience's huge expectations for "Detective Chinatown 3" to increase the movie ticket price of "Detective Chinatown 3" to an unbelievable level, and then used the huge resources at their disposal to dominate the film scheduling rate.
A high ticket price represents a high box office potential.
And the huge film scheduling rate is the guarantee of a high box office.
- Actually, movies are not what you want to watch, you can not watch if you want to watch them, film scheduling is the most knowledgeable thing, the theater chain directly grasps which movie has how many sets are scheduled, and your family goes to the movies happily during the Spring Festival, and it turns out that most of the films are scheduled to be films, and the others you want to watch are either arranged in the early morning or midnight, or there are too few films, two or three shows a day, so what to do? You can only see what everyone sees, but what everyone sees is not necessarily what everyone wants to see, and it is likely that it is only what capital wants you to see.
As a film that is extremely popular among many capital giants, with such a high market share and concerted action, it is certainly difficult for "Detective Chinatown 3" not to be popular.
What's more, "Detective Chinatown 3" not to mention the popularity accumulated by Xu Kai's "Detective Chinatown" and "Detective Chinatown 2" before, or a group of film companies spent a whole year doing publicity, and a group of film companies suppressed it for a year and waited for this time to exert their efforts.
This makes "Detective Chinatown 3" even if it is a smash, it still achieves a very bright box office.
But the problem is that the follow-up copyright of "Detective Chinatown" alone is as high as 5 billion, plus big investment, big cast, and big publicity, the box office is only more than 3 billion, which is a drop in the bucket.
The key is that "Detective Chinatown 3" has collapsed the reputation of the "Detective Chinatown" series, and the follow-up "Detective Chinatown 4", "Detective Chinatown 5", and "Detective Chinatown Universe" are all gone.
The pants of all the film companies are about to be lost.
There was "Ten Mile of Ocean" first, and then "Detective Chinatown", all of which proved to the world that without Xu Kai, no matter how big the IP is, it is useless, and if you lose money, you will lose money after all.
A number of film companies have also figured out that fake, all fake, only follow Qingye and save Qingye to make movies.
Therefore, as soon as Xu Kaigang returned to China, these bigwigs in the film industry, such as Wang Jun and Yu Dongdong, and the family members of Kyushu and the Four Seas, were first busy helping Xu Kaifa send Li Yonghong, and after Xu Kai returned to Hengdian, he often ran to Xu Kai's house, sending Xu Kai all kinds of local products, and lingering in Xu Kaiyan every day.
You said, it's okay for others to be swaying around in front of Xu Kaiyan, and Yu Dongdong is shameless to join in the fun.
Moreover, once, Yu Dongdong also met Jin Yuanyuan, who was holding Xu Kai's daughter and holding Xu Kai's son.
At that time, that scene was called an embarrassment!
Wang Jun and others who almost guessed the ins and outs of the situation were even a little unbearable to look at it.
But I have to say that Yu Dongdong is really a character, he even took the initiative to greet Jin Yuanyuan like an old friend and said, "Long time no see." Then he looked at Xu Kai's son and Xu Kai's daughter and said, "You are really good to your children." ”
I don't know if it's Xu Kai's illusion, when Yu Dongdong said these words at that time, there seemed to be no other negative emotions in his tone, only envy and jealousy that he tried his best to hide.
If this is the case, Xu Kai can actually understand it.
After all, Jin Yuanyuan has been in Yu Dongdong for several years, and her stomach has not moved at all, but when she came to Xu Kai, she gave birth to a son and a daughter, and it is clear who has a problem.
Moreover, Yu Dongdong is about to turn fifty, and he doesn't even have anyone who can inherit his family property, which is really embarrassing.
Jin Yuanyuan, who has always been very measured, didn't show off her happiness to Yu Dongdong, and didn't even say anything to Yu Dongdong, she just nodded at Yu Dongdong, and then took the child to the backyard.
Xu Kai thought that after such an embarrassing thing happened, Yu Dongdong would not come to his house again.
No, within two days, Yu Dongdong actually came to see him with Wang Jun and the others, as if nothing had happened before.
Later, Xu Kai learned that the life of Aina in the past two years was really difficult.
- None of the movies Aina has made in the past two years have made money, not to mention that she has lost a lot of money by investing in "Detective Chinatown 3", so that Aina's stock price has fallen to the price of a cabbage of more than a dozen yuan.
Therefore, if Aina can't deliver another result that satisfies all parties this year, Yu Dongdong may have to go bankrupt.
It is not difficult to understand that Xu Kai is obviously green Yu Dongdong, and Yu Dongdong always kneels and licks Xu Kai with other film companies.
Yu Dongdong can be willing to let go of his old face and run to Xu Kai from time to time, Xu Kai still doesn't want Yu Dongdong to be an eyesore in front of his eyes and affect his mood.
The key is that Wang Jun and Yu Dongdong come to Xu Kai's house from time to time to visit Xu Kai, and they always call and send messages to Xu Kai, which makes them annoyed and can't take a vacation at all.
After thinking about it, Xu Kai asked Si Peizhi to call Shen Hehe.
More than three years have passed, and Si Peizhi, the young girl at the beginning, has changed a lot.
With clear eyes, a pure face, and a noble temperament, Si Peizhi's typical oriental beauty is like a classical beauty coming out of an oil painting, graceful and luxurious without losing her sexiness.
Si Peizhi is so glamorous, and the beauty of things is incomprehensible. Her tall figure and goose-egg-shaped face, if she wears ancient costumes, she must be very temperamental, and her gestures are quite classical.
Let's describe it this way, Si Peizhi is beautiful and pure, her temperament is refined and fairy, her eyes are very pure, and she has a fairy-like temperament.
In fact, everyone noticed Si Peizhi, a fairy who was inseparable from Xu Kai.
Even many people thought that if Si Peizhi was invited to the big screen, she would definitely earn a lot of ratings just by her face.
But none of these elves said this abruptly.
Why?
This is of course because, of course, there are more resources in his hands than anyone else, and if he wants Si Peizhi to be a star, it is really easy.
In this way, Si Peizhi has not become a star, which means that either Si Peizhi does not want to be a star, or Xu Kai does not want Si Peizhi to be a star, or both.
Also, Si Peizhi seems to be just Xu Kai's life assistant, but who can't see that Si Peizhi must be Xu Kai's confined?
In this case, who dares to arrange Si Peizhi's life with more mouths, and do you want to mix in the film and television industry?
Actually-
These people really guessed wrong.
In the past few years, Xu Kai has not been idle in the beautiful country, and has played a large number of European and American women - most of the Hollywood actresses who have worked with Xu Kai have finally slept with Xu Kai, but, fortunately, the vast majority of European and American women are more advocating the so-called freedom, therefore, seeing that Xu Kai has many women, they all got together with Xu Kai and dispersed, and in the end, in addition to Anne Hepburn, only Sophie March and Nicole Johnson, two European and American women, returned to China with Xu Kai.
In addition, Xu Kai originally had so many women.
Therefore, don't look at the past few years, but Xu Kai has hardly been idle all night, so he has never received Si Peizhi.
As for Si Peizhi, when she was first with Xu Kai, she was always eager to throw a hug to Xu Kai.
But after being cut off by Yang Xinchun, Sophie Marche and others by mistake, Si Peizhi also thought about it: "There are countless women who can sleep with him, but I am the only woman who can accompany him every day to take care of him, besides, with his lustful and liking to eat grass by the nest, sooner or later one day will eat me, why should I be in a hurry?" ”
Si Peizhi is not in a hurry, and Xu Kai, who has never been short of women, is even less anxious - anyway, Si Peizhi is a duck to the mouth, Xu Kai can eat it whenever he wants, and there is no need to worry at all.
In this way, everyone thinks that Xu Kai has actually slept with Si Peizhi a long time ago, but the fact is that until now, Xu Kai has not touched Si Peizhi much.
This kind of thing, not to mention that others don't believe it, even Xu Kai himself feels a little incredible.
But—
Xu Kai has been thinking about it lately, he has to find a time to eat the more and more delicious Si Peizhi, so as not to have too many dreams at night.
And Shen Hehe, who went abroad to exercise with Xu Kai for three or four years, has changed a lot now.
Her temperament and appearance are relatively special, she has poems and books in her belly, her manners are decent, she has the style of a general, her edge is hidden, she is ready to go, she can see her own path.
In terms of image, she has studied ballet since she was a child, not only has a sincere and elegant external style, but also is full of introverted and enterprising gentleness, which perfectly highlights the fashion style of urban women.
Wang Jun, Yu Dongdong and the others saw that Xu Kai had brought a very beautiful girl over, and they were all a little unclear.
Xu Kai lightly hugged Shen Hehe's shoulders and said to Wang Jun, Yu Dongdong and others: "This is my apprentice Shen Hehe, she has been following me to make movies in the past few years, and she has participated in all the movies I directed, from assistant director to executive director, very diligent, very talented, and very thoughtful, and I am really going to take a break recently, if you are really short of movies, why don't you give her a chance, how about it?" ”
When they first heard Xu Kai's words, Wang Jun, Yu Dongdong and others were all stunned, and some of them were secretly angry, they thought: "Can't we people find someone to make a movie?" The people who want the resources in our hands to make movies can be lined up from your house to Kyoto, and the reason why we are here to lick you is to hope that you will take us to make money, but you don't go out of the mountain yourself, what's the matter with a little girl to mess around? ”
However, Yu Dongdong quickly rolled his eyes, and agreed with a smile: "Okay, Qingyun, since you have spoken, then we must sell your face and give the best resources to your apprentice to escort her first daughter." ”
Yu Dongdong reminded that Wang Jun and other old foxes also reacted, and they also promised to give Shen Hehe the best resources to escort Shen Hehe's first daughter.
There are those who can't figure out why they want to lose money to help a little girl, and after coming out, he hurriedly asked the people around him: "No, although that little girl has served Yu Qingyun for several years, but how much skill she has learned from Yu Qingyun, who knows, the key is that she doesn't have Yu Qingyun's reputation for making sure and not losing money, why do we bet heavily on her?" ”
The person next to him smiled slightly: "As we all know, Yu Qingyun is the most emotional, and he never lets his friends suffer, so, do you think, if we do our best to help his apprentice escort, but we fail to make money, maybe we have to lose some money, so can Yu Qingyun personally go out of the mountain to help us make a movie and earn it back with interest?" ”
