There's nothing to say about the interview, it's all a process-style routine.

How is it not easy to prepare for the movie, there were a lot of difficulties encountered during the filming, and the director and actors overcame many difficulties.

By the way, if the box office is not good, you must first ask 'Is "Love Has an Afterlife" a good movie?' ’

Then he answered: 'To measure the quality of a movie, it is more about evaluating a film from the point of view of art, and the level of the box office is to evaluate a film from the perspective of commercial operation. There is basically no direct correlation between the box office and the quality of the film. ’

Asked why he wanted to be a producer.

'I was moved by the story, I was moved by the director's persistence'...

It's all a process routine!

Do you want to tell the truth and say 'Director Yu is very run'?

Yes, having said that, "Love Has an Afterlife" is guaranteed to make headlines right away, but... How else do Shen Xudong and Yu Feihong behave?

The age difference is 13 years!

Oh, "Watching Movies" also asked Shen Xudong 'Do you have any new film plans'?

Yes, "33 Days of Broken Love" is about to be adapted into a final film. ’

'You're directing yourself?' ’

‘… I didn't think about this...'

I really didn't think about it, but Shen Xudong was a little moved.

First of all, "33 Days of Broken Love" has a very low cost and relies on stories to win;

Secondly, the shooting cycle of this movie is very short, and it can be done in a month...

Finally, if the publicity is done well, not to mention that the box office will exceed 300 million like the original time and space, 200 million is not a big problem...

Perfectly fit Shen Xudong's requirements!

"I'll think about it..."

……

Generally, interviews are for publicity - if they are not for publicity, who has time to talk about movies with people in a serious way?

"Watching the Movie" sold well, with a circulation of 600,000.

The electronic version is also read by a large number of people...

It's a pity that it has little effect on the movie "Love Has an Afterlife".

Again, the movie itself is not pleasing to the market - not commercial enough!

Moreover, the theater chain has a marketing plan for the film schedule, and after the first week, the number of films scheduled for "Love Has an Afterlife" has declined...

Gave "Slam Dunk".

At least "Slam Dunk" has Zhou Jielun!

Well, February 14th is Thursday, the first week is over, and "Love Has an Afterlife" won 12.7 million at the box office...

The next week, that is, on the 21st, "Detective" and "People in Embarrassment" were released...

It is estimated that the film schedule of "Love Has an Afterlife" will have to decline...

In other words, the total box office of "Love Has an Afterlife" is likely to be less than 15 million!

Uh, it did set the lowest box office record for Shen Xudong's movie, you know, "The Aviator" sold 16 million...

And the publicity cost of this drama is 8 million, that is... The money recovered at the box office is not even enough to cover the cost of publicity!

It's definitely a big Waterloo for Shen Xudong!

Of course, he himself didn't take it seriously ...

He didn't take it seriously, but Yu Feihong felt guilty.

Although the long-cherished wish has been achieved for many years, it has failed to live up to the trust of investors and issuers.

She is not the kind of director like Wang Jiawei and Jiang Wen who can't pay for their lives...

30 million...

After ending the publicity, he returned to the capital, met with Shen Xudong, and after the artistic exchange, he offered to help the company star in several TV series for free.

Shen Xudong was speechless: "I have to do what you do, what should Director Chen do?" ”

"Director Chen? What does it have to do with him? ”

"Jing Ke's Assassination of King Qin" lost tens of millions of blood..."Wuji" also lost tens of millions..."

Yu Feihong shook her head: "... It's different, I'm an actor..."

"What's the difference? Film investment itself is a kind of gambling, if you lose money, you make up for it with your own money, so what if you make money? Will they give it to you? After a pause, Shen Xudong emphasized: "Never empathize with capital..."

Yu Feihong kissed him: "... You know so much..."

"It's not that I know much, it's that I've experienced it..."

Then Shen Xudong talked about "Outstanding Citizen", the overseas share of this drama is 4.2 million US dollars, the mainland account is close to 8 million, and the TV copyright and audio-visual copyright are recorded 25 million...

The investor has made a lot of money!

How much money did he take?

The script fee and adaptation fee are added together with 1 million, and later there are bonuses and red envelopes of 500,000...

Well, just 1.5 million!

stepped on the horse, the whole project, he contributed the most, but the money he took was only 1.5 million?

That... What can I do?

I don't think he's the protagonist, so the copyright of the script belongs to him, right?

What are you kidding, if a film and television company invests in the production of your play, you must first buy out the copyright!

Because the production company bears the greatest pressure, especially the production company that makes it with its own money, it makes money, of course, it is good, but what if it loses?

The screenwriter and director will say that it's my business to lose money...

So, fair enough!

Shen Xudong comforted again: "Don't think so much, "Love Has an Afterlife" has a good reputation, and many analytical reports have also said that this type of film has no market in China, which can be regarded as a useful attempt." ”

“…”

Yu Feihong didn't speak, and it could be seen that she was still depressed...

Shen Xudong 'had no choice but to act as a psychiatrist again'.

She didn't have the heart to think about this...

From what point of view, he is also very selfless!

After all, he was also very tired for three days in a row.

Yes, human beings' pursuit of art has always been endless, but the endless pursuit and practice are very energy-consuming!

But there is no way, "Love Has an Afterlife" is under his encouragement and manipulation, Director Yu has realized his dream of directing, and now that the box office is failing, she doubts herself...

In a sense, Shen Xudong has to carry this pot!

You've depressed a Chinese filmmaker?

Is it obligatory to cheer her up again?

In this sense, this can be regarded as a contribution to the Chinese film industry.

Let's eat some if you suffer...

To be a man, especially at his stage, you can't be too selfish!

Ahem... That's it!

……

Three days later, on February 22, Shen Xudong went to work...

When I entered the company, I met Chen Xi head-on, and I said, "Where have you been these days?" ”

“… Outside... What's wrong? ”

Chen Xi was very angry: "The premiere of "People in Embarrassment", why don't you come?" I don't reply to your emails, I don't answer my calls! ”

Shen Xudong explained: "... Isn't there something wrong with me, Director Yu has all kinds of decadence because of the failure of "Love Has an Afterlife", and I have been with her for a few days..."

Hearing this, Chen Xi swallowed his saliva: "Accompany... How did you accompany it? ”

“… I just accompanied her to Inner Mongolia to see the scenery..."

"Really? Then why don't you answer the phone? ”

Shen Xudong took out his mobile phone: "iPhone... Trash stuff, five hours of charging, two minutes of talking! Speaking of this, he suddenly reacted: "No, I remember that I didn't say that I wanted to participate in the premiere of "People in Embarrassment"? ”

“… Then we'll all go..."

Shen Xudong reprimanded angrily: "I can't do well without film promotion and distribution? So what do I want you to do? Don't bother me with this kind of thing in the future! ”

Chen Xi... Shut up, she didn't know how to answer.

"...How much did "People in Embarrassment" box office yesterday?"

"I was about to tell you..."Chen Xi immediately changed his face: "... 10.2 million! ”
