265: Six months is okay....
On the first day of the first lunar month, major theaters are overcrowded.
The vast majority of people have only one goal, that is, "The Legend of Di Xin", which Wang Duoyu frantically promoted before.
As of the day of the premiere, the pre-sale box office of "The Legend of Di Xin" has reached 3.1 billion.
Different from Charlotte's previous troubles, everyone went with the joke of watching Wang Duoyu, and this time the audience really wanted to go to the theater to see what Wang Duoyu's so-called epic investment masterpiece looked like.
Wang Duoyu also took Yang Chaoyue to the premiere site in Xihong City.
Zhao Liying has a big belly, which is not suitable for appearing in crowded places, so Wang Duoyu didn't take her.
At this time, Jiang Wen, Zhang Yi and others were also there.
In the past two years, because of Wang Duoyu, more and more premieres have been held in Xihong City.
Seeing Wang Duoyu, Jiang Wen and the others also took the initiative to come over to say hello.
"Mr. Wang, long time no see!"
"I haven't seen several directors for a long time, is the TV series still going well?"
Jiang Wen waved his hand, "It's smooth, it's fucking smooth, it will be completed in March, but the special effects will definitely take a long time, at least not faster than the movie version." ”
Hearing this, Wang Duoyu shook his head, "Don't worry about special effects, maybe this drama won't be broadcast." ”
"Oh?" Jiang Wen looked at Wang Duoyu unexpectedly.
Wang Duoyu explained: "You know the investment in this movie, if the box office is less than 5 billion, I will definitely not consider continuing to make a series, even if it is 5 billion, I will only consider it." As for the TV series, you should also know that even if you save some money, the cost will not be low, which is equivalent to the movie "The Legend of Di Xin" is burdened with the cost of two projects, and I estimate that it is very likely that this is the last movie in this series. ”
Jiang Wen also frowned at this time.
They all understand the reason, but thinking that the drama they filmed is likely to not be broadcast, Jiang Wen is still unhappy.
But he couldn't find any reason to refute it.
After all, it's not a few dollars or a dozen dollars, it's a ten-figure investment.
He Jiang Wen couldn't take it out.
Fortunately, several people did not discuss this topic for too long.
After a few casual chats, I entered the screening room and prepared to watch a movie.
This time, the movie uses a 3D effect.
In Jiang Wen's words, the investment is so big anyway, what's wrong with adding a little more?
At the beginning of the movie, a series of brilliant special effects flashed, and countless strange beasts that only existed in the Classic of Mountains and Seas appeared in everyone's sight.
With the blessing of powerful money ability, the special effects of these strange beasts are not generally good, and they have caused countless cheers as soon as they appeared.
Immediately afterwards, the camera zoomed in, and Di Xin played by Chen Daoming appeared on the screen.
He looked at the horizon from afar, with endless coldness in his eyes.
From there, the feature film begins.
In this version of the movie, Di Xin is not the puppet emperor who is extravagant and has no talent.
It's a 'human emperor' in the true sense of the word!
Regarding the Romance of the Gods, there are countless versions of folk interpretations.
Even the TV series version has a different opinion.
But in most TV series, Di Xin is treated as a mediocre business king.
But Wang Duoyu's version is different, he pays attention to Di Xin's talent and means.
In this version, the Shang King is a human emperor who intends to fight for good fortune with the gods and Buddhas in the sky.
The last generation of 'human emperors' in folklore is vividly reflected in this movie.
Fight with the sky and fight for luck.
Fight with others and control the general trend of the world.
Various means emerged one after another, which once refreshed the audience's understanding of him.
And in this version, the human emperor is also an extremely powerful existence, although there are only a few special effects in the film to show his means, but there is no discomfort that makes the audience exclaim, "I grass, I can still play like this." ’
I have to say that Wang Duoyu feels that the most successful director he is looking for in this movie is Xu Laowei.
A lot of special effects look like Xu Laowei's thoughts.
I can fly and never go with you.
I can use special effects and absolutely nothing to do with you.
Fairyland on earth, rare beasts, all kinds of gorgeous special effects appear in the movie, even if you ignore the plot, just watching these special effects is a visual feast.
This time, Wang Duoyu had the same thoughts as ordinary audiences when watching the movie.
I'm grass, this looks good!
Because this movie never appeared in his original world!
This is a product created by his king and many fishes.
When the movie ends, the battle comes to an end for the time being.
The screening hall burst into loud applause.
Everyone was overwhelmed by the special effects that appeared in this film.
It's not just the special effects, but the plot is also perfect.
There is no so-called love and hatred, there is, there is only one old six who exists to compete for luck.
This kind of game is all the sixth old, everyone is not ordinary cool!
After walking out of the screening hall, Wang Duoyu was also blocked by familiar reporters.
"Mr. Wang, is it convenient to be interviewed?"
Wang Duoyu glanced at the road blocked by the reporters, and said helplessly: "You all blocked me like this, can I still run?" ”
"Would you like to be interviewed?"
Wang Duoyu pointed to the place where he was interviewed.
"Go over there, lest you get in the way of others."
As he spoke, Wang Duoyu walked towards the area dedicated to the interview.
The reporters will also make way for Wang Duoyu.
When they arrived at the place, the reporters asked all kinds of questions, and Wang Duoyu's ears were buzzing.
He pressed his hand, "Come one by one, don't worry, I won't run." ”
Hearing Wang Duoyu's words, the reporters stopped a lot.
Wang Duoyu pointed to the reporter closest to him, "What's wrong with this reporter?" ”
Seeing Wang Duoyu pointing at him, the reporter also hurriedly asked: "May I ask Mr. Wang, you said before that this movie invested more than one billion, is this true?" ”
Wang Duoyu glanced at him strangely, "Didn't you go in to watch a movie?" ”
The reporter shook his head.
Wang Duoyu had no choice but to point to the audience who were leaving the venue and said: "If you go over there and find someone who has watched this movie, you won't think that this movie is not worth more than a billion, and the special effects in it are so luxurious that no one in China will surpass them for many years to come." ”
"Won't you go beyond it yourself? Didn't you say before that this is a series of movies? ”
"I said on Weibo a long time ago that the investment in the film is too big, and if I can't recover the cost or make a big profit, I won't continue to shoot."
"But your company has sent relevant news before, saying that the TV series version is already being filmed."
"To be precise, it's almost finished, but with such a huge investment in a TV series, I don't think any platform is willing to spend money to buy it, so it's very likely that I won't complete the production of TV series special effects, that is, this TV series is very likely to die, if the audience really has high expectations and wants to watch it, I can only say, you go to the cinema to buy a few more tickets, help me brush the box office, the money is in place, it's easy to say."
"Then you ......."
He was interviewed for more than three hours.
Most of these questions Wang Duoyu answered very realistically.
The main core answer is just one sentence.
Want to see the follow-up? Want to watch a TV series? Then buy more tickets and contribute to the box office for me!
This is the first time that Wang Duoyu is so serious about seeking the box office.
This made netizens who saw the interview on the Internet feel curious.
Many people said that Wang Duoyu was really panicked.
If you can't recover the cost, you will lose a lot of money.
But some people think that Wang Duoyu is simply selling miserably.
But in any case, it does not in any way hinder the fact of one thing.
That is, the word-of-mouth of "The Legend of Di Xin" exploded.
On the first day of release, all theaters were full.
Douban score 9.3!
[I never thought that one day I would see so many top-notch special effects in domestic movies, yes, top-notch! I don't doubt the billions of dollars that Wang Duoyu said, or anyone who has really watched this movie should know that these billions are true! The special effects in this completely satisfy all my fantasies about Xianxia! 】
[Finally saw the non-mediocre Shang Wang, this movie's description of the Shang King is too much in line with the definition of the word 'human emperor', coupled with this ubiquitous top special effects, I announce that this movie is scheduled to be the box office champion this year in advance! ] 】
[I actually saw a movie in China that is full of the world's top special effects, and I don't think this ticket price is expensive at all just for this special effects! Not to mention that the plot inside is also very perfect, the battle between a group of old six, it's really cool to watch! Looking forward to the second part! 】
[I used to think that piracy is actually no different from the genuine version, as long as you watch it, but after watching "The Legend of Di Xin", I changed this idea, I hope that all fans who can see this evaluation can go to the cinema to support the genuine version, don't let Mr. Wang lose money, I really want to watch the second part! ] 】
[In fact, real fans don't care whether the ticket price is ten or a hundred, as long as the movie is worth this price, we are willing to pay for it, the value of the 118 flowers! ] 】
[Fuck, if Wang Duoyu dares not to come out of the TV series version, I will give him a fucking one star directly! ] It's really good-looking, and the cooperation of the three top domestic directors is simply invincible! Show me excited, and hit my girlfriend three times in the theater on the spot! 】
【.......】
Seeing the comments on the Internet, Wang Duoyu was also relieved.
At the very least, the reputation is preserved.
If you spend more than a billion yuan and get scolded, it will be a big injustice.....
As for how many people will pay for themselves in the end, it depends on the situation at the time.
Thinking about it, Wang Duoyu also came to the study to prepare to write the script.
said that it was writing a script, but in fact, it was to open a familiar station and start looking for something familiar to oneself in it......
If Wang Duoyu remembers correctly, many of the stations in this station, which is hated by countless peers, have been adapted into TV series.....
The key is that the adaptation rate is quite high.
Sure enough, Wang Duoyu searched for a long time this time, and he really found another familiar one.
"Know or Not"
This was released in 10 years, and it also became popular after it was adapted in Wang Duoyu's memory.
It just so happened that Zhao Liying's postpartum work currently has only one stop filming "Shanshan is Coming", so Wang Duoyu asked Elsa to contact the original author of this one, intending to buy the copyright from her.
After contacting Elsa, Wang Duoyu originally wanted to find other suitable ones for adaptation into a TV series, but after looking for a long time, he didn't find a suitable one.
I had no choice but to pick up the pen and start writing.
There are two scripts he will write this time.
One is for Zhao Lusi, and the other is for Tan Songyun.
Zhao Lusi's is actually relatively simple.
What Wang Duoyu prepared for her was a script that was also adapted.
"Splendid Stars"
It's a pity that this one was released in 18 years, and now the author has not started writing it.
But coincidentally, the author of this one is the author of "Know or Not".
This author's habit of writing books is still easy to find.
Wang Duoyu studied what the author had written before, and he probably knew her habits.
Then start filling in according to the plot in your memory.
In one afternoon, Wang Duoyu wrote a rough outline.
The heroine Cheng Shaoshang was left by her parents to become a "left-behind child" by her grandmother since she was a child due to the war.
In the face of many traps, Cheng Shaoshang lived for his life, fake absurdity, really hard work, covering up his edge and waiting for his parents to return. But when the dark clouds are removed and the moon is bright, it is difficult to regain family affection due to years of estrangement.
Cheng Shaoshang, who lacks love, meets Ling Budo, the son of the new emperor, Yuan Shen, the talented son of Bailu Mountain, and Lou Yao, the son of the family, and the three of them have their own advantages and disadvantages.
In the choice of marriageable people, Cheng Shaoshang is both inferior and pragmatic, although the emotional road is quite bumpy, she never regrets every choice she makes.
In the process of getting along with Ling Budo, he was also involved in the mystery of Ling Budo's family and life experience. In various incidents, Cheng Shaoshang has repeatedly made miraculous achievements, and he has also learned how to get along with his parents and how to manage his love from Ling Budo's family relationship.
At the same time, Cheng Shaoshang and Ling Budo also changed and grew up in these experiences, slowly reconciled with themselves and their families, and adhered to the justice in their hearts, working together to resolve the national crisis.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it is an upgrade from a female perspective to fight monsters.....
But it's not the escalated force, it's the status and one's own Dao heart.
With such an outline, Wang Duoyu really doesn't have any pressure to write.
His only headache was probably how to write some ambiguous and sweet scenes.
It's really not what he's good at.
But fortunately, the original author of this book basically has a lot of sweet scenes in every book.
Although Wang Duoyu looks weird and embarrassed in these scenes, since female readers like it so much, female audiences also like it, which shows that this is what they want.
Wang Duoyu just drew a scoop down according to the gourd.
And when he wrote "The Rumored Chen Qianqian" before, Wang Duoyu found out.
The so-called high sweetness that girls like..... Most of them are scenes where men find their feet embarrassed.
Anyway, according to your own wishes, how embarrassing to come.
When the time comes, let the people on the other side of the midday sun deal with it themselves.
In my memory, this drama seems to have been filmed by people in the noon sun.
Let them handle it, and they will only be responsible for giving a good outline.
In this way, for five days in a row, Wang Duoyu wrote some embarrassing scenes in it, plus filled in some small details.
When it was almost time, Wang Duoyu also threw the script to Zhao Lusi.
"There will definitely be changes when shooting, and the version I wrote is a rough version, anyway, you get familiar with it first, and even if it is changed, you can adapt it as soon as possible."
"Okay boss, I'll take a good look!"
"Hmm."
Wang Duoyu answered and hung up the phone, but turned around and wrote another script.
In the Name of Family
The core of this drama is actually very simple.
Three children who are not related by blood and have suffered different injuries in their original families got together by chance to become brother and sister. The eldest brother Ling Xiao, the second brother He Ziqiu, and the younger sister Li Jianjian. Under the care of two fathers, Li Haichao and Ling Heping, they supported each other and grew up together.
After graduating from high school, the two older brothers returned to their original families, on the one hand, a new family that they believed they cherished each other, and on the other hand, their biological parents, who could not choose but had no relationship, and they wandered back in the two families.
Nine years later, the brothers returned to their new family, and the three were finally reunited, but the psychological problems caused by their original family still followed. In the face of various difficulties in life, the three chose to work together, and after going through some hardships, they finally bravely stepped out of the shadows of the past, let their parents face their own problems, and also made each other a better version of themselves.
To put it bluntly, it is to add a framework that is not related by blood, and then add all kinds of trivial things about love and love.
Wang Duoyu has written such a script, I don't know how much.
Is there still one less trivial script written before?
Not every drama has the same script as "The Legend of Di Xin", where a group of people gather around to pull their hair and think about the plot.
Most of them set a good framework, and then stuff the common routines of the same type of TV series into it.
Set the formula and you're done.
TV series, as long as the actors' acting skills don't pull their hips, the investment is strong, the director's level is a little more online, the post-editing is perfect, and the publicity is in place, isn't this okay?
Basically, it's not cold, but it depends on your fate if you can explode or not.
And Wang Duoyu chose some scripts that were small or even big hits in his memory, just to increase the stability of his project.
"Mr. Wang, what do you write?"
was writing the script, Zhao Liying came to the study with her big belly and stood beside Wang Duoyu.
"Why are you here?"
Wang Duoyu hurriedly gave up his position and wanted Zhao Liying to sit down.
Eight months is actually not too small, and Wang Duoyu attaches more importance to this child, so naturally he will not let Zhao Liying stand.
However, Zhao Liying did not choose to sit down, but looked at Wang Duoyu directly.
Wang Duoyu instantly understood what she meant, and touched her hair helplessly.
The two chatted for a while, mainly about the care of the child in the future.
Although Wang Duoyu didn't say much during this time, he did pay attention to his mother's postpartum care and some matters that need to be paid attention to in the early stage of the child.
This time, Zhao Liying happened to come to him, so he took the initiative to talk to Zhao Liying to see if there was anything to pay attention to.
