Chapter 44: Breaking 100 million

It is said that when Dong Ge finished writing "Covering the Sky", his reputation reached its peak, and Perfect World offered 5 million yuan, so that Dong Ge's next book would be called "Perfect World"...

It's numb, buy a book title for 5 million!

Game adaptation rights?

Ma Dan, the "Perfect World" game came out in 05!

Now let Shen Xudong write?

Shen Xudong hesitated: "... I do have plans to write a fantasy book, but... I've set the outline, and it doesn't have much to do with "Perfect World"..."

"It's okay, you just need to call it that... How about two million? ”

Shen Xudong glanced at Shen Haobo, who shook his head slightly, and then he said, "... You can talk to Mr. Shen about the specific price, I am only responsible for writing! ”

That is, I am a cultural person, how can I talk about money directly with people if I read the Spring and Autumn Period!

Shen Haobo is a bookseller, and he is stained with the smell of copper, so it is best for him to talk.

"Dong Chi, the specific price, I'll go to your company tomorrow, and we'll talk about it in detail."

“… Okay, too. ”

Shen Xudong suddenly remembered something: "Chi Dong, the TV series "Zhu Xian", does Perfect World intend to invest?" ”

“… TV series? ”

"That's right, I've almost written the script, 50 episodes, if you want to come up with an effect, it will cost 150 million to say the least..."

Chi Yufeng thought for a while: "Let's look at the game situation..."

Shen Xudong nodded, and suggested by the way: "I have played "Legend", and I feel that the mentality of domestic players is very... Strange, spend dozens to buy games without in-app purchases, you have to play props to rush tens of thousands, so, the first thing to satisfy the game is the player's sense of glory, most of the Chinese are poor, finally a little money always think that there can be many people worship, so, free games, props charging can definitely make money! ”

"What else?"

“… And also? ”

"What do you think of the game..."

"Oh," Shen Xudong continued, "I feel that competitive battle games like Dota will become mainstream in the future..."

Chi Yufeng shook his head: "Not necessarily..."

Shen Xudong waved his hand and hurriedly said: "I'm just a family, just listen to it... We won't discuss it..."

He's not a gamer.

Love to listen or not!

After sending Chi Yufeng away, Shen Haobo suddenly asked: "I heard that you are going to make a movie "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"?" ”

“… Well, I found Xu Ke to direct. ”

"Can you earn it?"

Shen Xudong glanced at him: "Do you want to invest?" ”

"Well, I've also had some savings in the past few years to publish books..."

"Then buy a house... Buy a BJ house, it can definitely appreciate in value! ”

Shen Haobo: "I have three houses, why should I buy so many houses... Don't get off the topic, did the movie "Ghost Blow the Lamp" have a head? ”

Shen Xudong thought for a while, and then said very seriously: "It's hard to say, if you can come out next year, it is estimated that you can make a little money, but if you can't come out, you will definitely lose a little..."

"Why?"

"The advancement of Internet technology has caused videotapes to be difficult to sell, and filmmakers are very cautious..."

The main reason: the financial crisis is about to erupt!

This is bad news for Chinese-language films with large investments, overseas filmmakers will no longer buy rights at high prices, but there are also benefits - after the financial crisis, global film production has declined, but due to the "lipstick effect", the audience's demand for films has risen instead of falling. This has led to a shortage of stock in many film distribution companies, and they have to replenish the stock, and then Chinese films come to mind, because Chinese films are produced in large quantities and are cheap.

Mind you, there's a premise here: cheap!

But blockbusters with big investments are clearly not among them...

But Shen Xudong didn't need to tell Shen Haobo about this, he persuaded: "If you want to invest in movies, either invest in three or five films at a time, or don't invest..."

"Then why did you make "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"?"

“… This is a trilogy, the first part makes a name for itself, and the second part makes money... Besides, we can also develop TV series..."

Shen Haobo immediately said: "I can also vote for three!" ”

“… Then you take 50 million... I'll count you in as a share! ”

"Fifty million is only one share?"

"How else to call it a blockbuster, the trilogy plans to invest a total of 500 million, and the first part costs 150 million..."

Shen Haobo was frightened by this number: "That... Forget it..."

“… If you are really interested in film and television dramas, you can vote for a few TV series first, and it is safer to settle down! ”

Shen Haobo shook his head: "No, your industry is tens of millions of dollars in and out, and I can't afford to play..."

……

It is said that "Crazy Stone" was released on the 12th, and the single-day box office was stable at more than 8 million, and the next weekend it was reported to be 32.1 million, and the cumulative box office was 88.6 million after ten days of release!

After entering the third working day, the single-day box office began to decline significantly - this is a normal thing, on the one hand, the genuine DVD is on the market, and on the other hand, the movie-watching boom period is almost over...

However, it still maintained a single-day income of more than 4 million.

By July 1st, the 15th day of its release, "Stone" officially announced that the box office exceeded 100 million!

Then many theaters drastically reduced the number of films scheduled - "Superman Returns" was released.

However, the box office of "Superman Returns" in the mainland was only 29 million in the first week, and "Stone" won 12.2 million in the third weekend, and the cumulative box office pushed to 117 million.

The play "Superman Returns" is mainly too ugly...

And our domestic perception of Superman is not so strong, and most of the audience's understanding of Superman is limited to the man who wears underwear...

"Stone" lasted until July 10th, and when it went offline, the final box office was 122 million...

That's right, Ning Hao became the youngest member of the 100 million yuan director club.

The value of the main creators of "Stone" has risen with the tide, and there are various points in the circle...

A typical example is Liu Hua, countless commercial projects have been handed to him, and he doesn't pick...

This is a common practice in the industry, staring at the suddenly popular actors, and not hesitating to use political resources in order to grab the schedule.

It's also good, wealth is free in a short period of time, and there is nothing wrong with the actor's pursuit of money.

Huang Bo has a company to help screen, two movies, "Left and Right" and "The Second in the World", a TV series "Shanghai Tang", the role of Ding Li.

Coupled with the fact that it has not been filmed and has not been released, Huang Bo is now almost full even next year's schedule - and Ning Hao's new works!

As for Ning Hao, he bought himself a gold necklace, then changed his mobile phone number, and went into retreat to polish the script of "Silver Driver" (Crazy Racing)...

To be honest, this product is too slow.

After he finished filming "Racing", Shen Xudong was ready to give him the script directly, and what kind of "No Man's Land" would be filmed in the province...

What about Shen Xudong?

He's been quite idle lately, he hasn't done anything, no, it should be said that he also has to do things, he's stirring up scandals...

invited Zhang Hanyun to dinner three times, and personally sent her to school...

Match the hype!

Of course, he'd love to do it himself...

After all, when you say something, the little girl looks at you with her eyes open and adoring, which feels really cool.

It's so easy to fool...

The level of education is not high, if Shen Xudong is willing, a few words can let her sit on it by herself!

Of course, Shen Xudong is not so shameless...
