Chapter 35: May omitted

In fact, Hollywood does not have the title of Four Little Flowers!

If you think about it, you also know that the word Hua Dan came out of Peking Opera.

But these four are indeed tomorrow's stars, Christine Stewart, Emma Roberts, and Blake Lively all belong to the acting family, Amanda Seyfried also has "Happy Death Day", and starring in "Mamma Mia" will be released in July...

It really left off his peers!

Of these four girls, Shen Xudong has the least impression of Emma Roberts, only knowing that she is Julia's niece...

Emma Roberts doesn't seem to have been mixed up, or there is no memorable role.

The reports about Emma on the Chinese Internet are more about 'small people can also show long legs' and the like.

It's embarrassing, obviously an actor, but there are no works worth mentioning!

However, after Shen Xudong communicated with her, he felt that this girl was very suitable for playing a femme fatale villain!

Because her appearance is very sweet, typical of the American sweetheart style of the 80s of the last century.

American sweethearts are like the jade girls in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, so many that they are outrageous...

But this kind of character design is outdated!

Anne Hathaway was taunted in various ways...

Therefore, Shen Xudong suggested that she try a villain.

For example, "The Witch"...

The plot of the movie "The Witch" is simple, it is a story of a girl who escaped from a laboratory and killed indiscriminately.

The selling point is plasma...

No, it joins the desire of the reformed person for family and friends.

After all, success, fame, technology... All of this is at their fingertips.

It takes a director with a bit of a brain.

Wen Ziren is pretty good, but he's busy filming "Latent", so let him recommend one.

As a leading figure in the field of horror films, Wen Ziren is not alone, he is a leader called the "Cheer Gang".

From Ray Warner, who was a classmate and co-"conceived" "Chainsaw", to director Darren Ryan Bausman, who took over the filming of the "Chainsaw" series, as well as Eli Rose, director of the "Human Skin Inn" series, and Rob Zumby, director of the movie "House of a Thousand Corpses"...

They are all members of the Cheer Gang!

By mention, "House of a Thousand Corpses" is the movie that Raj's red-haired beauty Emily likes to watch in "The Big Bang Theory", a perverted horror movie!

Wen Ziren recommended John R. Leonedy...

The cinematographer of "Dead Silence" is also a good friend of Wen Ziren, and later, John worked as the director of "Annabelle"...

……

After entering May, Shen Xudong was very unhappy...

The whole person looks melancholy and full of temperament, his state is obviously not suitable for staying on the set, Joseph suggests that he go on a trip or find a girl...

He knows the reason for his restlessness!

But it can't be said ...

Of course, Shen Xudong did not agree with Joseph's suggestion, but forced himself to arrive at the set on time every day, get off work at the end of the day, and go back to the room directly after work...

During this time, he tried to recall some independent productions, and combined with the data on the computer, he wrote 7 or 8 script frameworks.

It's basically a horror movie.

There is no way, the big production of manga is in charge, and it can find another way, and the only thing that attracts the audience is R-rated cool films.

If you add that the cost is not high, it can only be a horror movie.

Works like "A Quiet Place", "After the Lights Are Turned Out", "Hold Your Breath", "The Dark Side", and "Death Divination" are all concept-first works.

The so-called concept first is to attract the audience by setting.

By the way, I also finished polishing "Super Body".

It's just that Scarlett Johansson has not yet evolved into a widowed sister, and if filming starts now and it will be released next year, it will always feel a bit of a loss!

"Iron Man 2" seems to be the May Day file in 2010...

Then wait a little longer!

Anyway, Scarlett Johansson can't go.

……

"15 million is already very good, you must know that our movie has almost zero investment!"

Chen Xi called to complain about the box office of "Southern Starman" and the film schedule...

Oh, "Southern Star" was released on April 30, I didn't think about PK with "The King of Kung Fu", I just wanted to steal a little box office at May Day, and then "Iron Man" was also released!

Of course, Shen Xudong knows the power of "Iron Man" - a Hollywood blockbuster with zero publicity, which won 92 million box office.

Since then, Marvel movies have begun to enter China.

By the way, "Iron Man" also sparked the popularity of Hong Kong directors - Wang Jing produced "Future Police"...

Hong Kong movies often rub off on Hollywood popularity, and have produced a lot of remakes and copycat blockbusters, some of which are of good quality, such as "Oriental Condor" copycat "First Blood", "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard" The plot structure imitates "Bodyguard", of course, the quality of more works is not up to par, for example, "Love Dream", which is based on the remake of "Titanic"... and "Future Police"...

Of course, the distributors don't know, they don't know much about Iron Man, Iron Man, it's very low when you hear it... It's the same as the gourd baby!

The most important thing is that they don't have high expectations for the box office of "Nanxingke", just 20 million.

After all, the cost is really low!

On the one hand, Tang Yan and Wang Kai are not well-known movie actors, with low salaries and very low production costs, less than 8 million; On the other hand, "Southern Star" implants a whole bunch of brands, offsetting most of the cost...

Therefore, the box office of 15 million is also a small profit!

Chen Xi was very unhappy: "... The theater doesn't schedule films... We have a high attendance! ”

“… The cast lineup is not good... Now the theater only recognizes the cast lineup..."

"Who made you unwilling to hold Tang Yan."

"I didn't want to..."

"Then I'll arrange for her to go to the United States immediately, you two have a meal together, then go shopping hand in hand, and then enter the hotel together..."

"It's over!" Shen Xudong hurriedly stopped her: "Tang Yan is an actor... You're doing this, tarnishing her efforts... Besides, I'm not interested in girls who are the same before and after! ”

"Just let you into the hotel, didn't let you really do it... You don't forget to spread art when you go to Hong Kong, why are you so stingy? ”

Shen Xudong shook his head: "Forget it, it's not suitable recently..."

Chen Xi sighed: "I can only hope that the next "Stranger" will have a good schedule..."

"I said that the May 1st gear is not suitable, you have to listen!"

"Then you also say that this kind of small-budget movie is no problem when it is released."

"Stop talking back... Have you assigned me a new assistant? ”

Hearing this, Chen Xi immediately said: "I have to help you get in touch, but there are too few that meet your requirements!" ”

Shen Xudong was speechless: "I just ask to be good-looking, bachelor degree or above, is it so difficult?" ”

“… It's not very high, but you have to filter out the uneasy and kind category! ”

“… I'm a man, why don't I feel kind? ”

Chen Xi simply said honestly: "I mean it meets my requirements." ”

“… You're worried that she's stumbling on you, how is it possible, you're a company... Oh, then you sift through slowly... Don't introduce me to idiots! ”

Hanging up the phone, Shen Xudong probably understood what Chen Xi meant - he couldn't be too ambitious.

After all, Shen Xudong's assistant is equivalent to Shen Xudong's spokesperson!

If it is a person with a strong desire for power, it is likely to trigger infighting in the company.

……

In late May, Shen Xudong returned to China...
