"Everything I shoot has a box office, entertainment, serious, there is a box office! Whoever surpasses me, you find one for me, no, I'm very lonely and seeking defeat. ”

These are Feng Xiaogang's original words!

It can be seen that what he values most is the box office!

So, "1942" did not live up to expectations, and he was confused...

If, add a sentence to this sentence, 'No way, the audience just likes me!' That's not going to be so hateful.

It's impossible, he doesn't have an audience in his heart at all, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to say such a thing as a 'garbage audience'!

When fame and fortune gathered on him, he finally felt that he had gotten rid of the name of "Feng Pants", and the artist who was polite to everyone finally became a "little steel cannon" who dared to "scare the sky and the air".

Back then, when the Hong Kong box office of "Do Not Disturb" was cold, he attributed the failure of "Do Not Disturb" in Hong Kong to the fact that Hong Kong audiences "do not know the goods and look down on mainland movies."

"The Great Earthquake of the Tang Dynasty", Xu Fan did not win the award, and he also publicly declared that 'the Golden Horse Awards are shady, and the judges who participated in the awards don't understand movies at all. ’

That's true...

"I remember you said that filming "1942" was your obsession, and now that it has been filmed, the effect is also good..."

"The box office is too low..."

"More than 300 million, not low!" 、

Feng Xiaogang shook his head: "The cost is 200 million!" ”

Shen Xudong didn't want to say anything, it just so happened that Chen Daoming changed the topic and talked about "Big Buddha", "Big Buddha" Chen Daoming also starred, he played the boss, an artist who returned from studying abroad, has a big factory, drives a luxury car, and the people he friends with are all celebrities in the upper political and business circles, and he also killed his lover...

The story of "Big Buddha" is very simple, a pair of poor people peek into the lives of rich people, peek at the dash cam, and spy on the lives of rich people...

The lights are bright, the BMW fragrant car, the wine pond and the meat forest, the women are always extra gentle and obedient by their side, they always have what they want...

But that's not all, there's deceit, and even murder...

Through the dash cam, the two saw Huang Qiwen kill a lover who had been by his side for many years in a fit of anger, and threw her into the body of the big Buddha being made in the factory, and pressed the Buddha's head overnight...

"I only saw the finished film in Berlin, and it was actually a black and white video..."

"Black and white?"

"Well, I heard that it was Xudong's suggestion?"

Shen Xudong nodded: "All the realistic passages are in black and white images, but the passages displayed by the dashcam are in color, I wrote this script because I saw a sentence 'The world of the poor is black and white, and the rich are in color!'" ’… I told Director Zhang about this idea, and he was very excited, so he filmed it like this..."

Chen Daoming praised: "The shooting is very beautiful, I especially like the scene where I found the corpse of Wangcai played by Zhao Benshan, a whole horizontal camera, first the whistle, then the undulating wheat field with the wind, then the dry ditch near the wheat field, the scattered items in the ditch, the overturned motorcycle, and finally the corpse covered with white cloth." ”

Feng Xiaogang didn't speak, and Shen Xudong continued: "The box office of this movie won't be too high... It's so sad..."

"Mourning?"

"It's just... There's no hope in sight..."

……

The meals were all together, everyone was chatting while eating, and Shen Xudong asked Zhang Guoli about the show "Let's Cross"...

"Let's Cross" has been positioned as entertaining and educational from the beginning, and... The originality is high, so the ratings have not been very high!

But this show was praised by many official media, and even won the TV Literature and Art "Starlight Award"!

BJ Satellite TV directly renewed the last two seasons...

"I heard that after "Let's Cross" was launched on PPTV, the click-through rate of each episode of the program could exceed 100 million... When you really see the deep needs of users, you will find that what you have to do is actually consistent with the direction advocated by the state. ”

Feng Xiaogang interjected: "I looked at a data, saying that the total revenue of various satellite TV variety shows last year was estimated to exceed 40 billion, and about 200 reality shows seized the prime time of satellite TV... Is variety show so competitive? ”

"Hmm... But many variety shows are actually plagiarism... It's all the same..."

"You're making money on this show?"

"I heard them say that the first season was profitable!" Zhang Guoli looked at Shen Xudong: "Did you earn it?" ”

Shen Xudong nodded: "There is a profit, and a lot of money." ”

"Is variety show easy to do?"

Zhang Guoli shook his head: "It's not easy to do, what the audience likes, it's too difficult to judge!" ”

Hehe, that's because slow variety shows haven't caught on yet...

Later, slow variety shows were popular, eating, chatting, and even sleeping were all programs, and there were only a few game links left, and people often fished.

Celebrities must like it very much, compared to filming, the so-called slow variety shows are too easy to make money, and it is precisely because of this that variety shows have become more and more feng shui treasures for stars to make money...

Take the money and the script, and act out life - the proletariat with gold teeth!

Zhang Guoli asked: "What's the matter, you also want to do variety shows?" ”

Feng Xiaogang sighed: "I have to help them settle the accounts..."

"1942" made Huayi lose more than 100 million... Feng Xiaogang felt very sorry for the Huang family brothers...

Shen Xudong shook his head: "You can't say that, investing in movies is an investment behavior in itself, since it is an investment behavior, there are profits and losses, and the "Tai Chi" led by Chen Guofu also lost nearly 200 million, how can he repay it?" ”

"I talked to Wang Shuo before, and I'm going to make another "Party A and Party B"..."

Shen Xudong: "What kind of one-day trip?" ”

"Hmm..."

Shen Xudong previously wrote the script of "Party A and Party B 2", that is, "Good Dream Day Trip", for Feng Xiaogang, and the movie sold more than 100 million at the box office, which was Feng Xiaogang's first work with a box office of over 100 million.

However, this time, Shen Xudong didn't have any 'inspiration', just said: "That's good... It's called "Party A and Party B 3"..."

"Let's talk about the name, but I'm sure I'm going to release it in December!"

"What day is December?"

"Around the 20th..."

"That's okay, we also have a comedy, tentatively on the 5th, and there is another one..."

"Zhou Xingchi's movie, when are you going to release it?"

"Summer file..."

Feng Xiaogang shook his head: "I'm not saying that the one he directed, the one he starred in..."

Shen Xudong; "The movie is still being filmed, I guess it's either next year's Spring Festival or summer..."

"It's not a Chinese New Year?"

"It's not... We have all set up a New Year's movie, a happy twist comedy called "Charlotte's Troubles", and a Guo Fan's "Earth Fire", tentatively scheduled to be released on New Year's Day..."

"Xu Zheng and Ning Hao have no shooting plans?"

"Yes, they're going to work together on two plays... It's still being planned..."Speaking of this, Shen Xudong looked at Uncle Ge: "Is Uncle Ge interested?" ”
