Chapter Seventy-Nine: In the Future, Film and Television Companies Will Have to Work for BAT? (4/4)
What is the difference between Shen Xudong and Chen photographer?
Neither having sex with multiple women nor taking pictures.
Rather, he never repaired computers!
He is lustful, of course, showing that he is talented and amorous...
There are many disadvantages: lustful indulgence, hanging children, lack of restraint, money worship, strong desire, amorous, irresponsible, etc...
But there are more advantages: generous and open-minded, high emotional intelligence, sociable, flexible, affordable, and affectionate.
Shen Xudong's artistic attainments are quite proficient, and there are not a few actresses who have communicated with him in the circle...
But if you do the math, it's not that much!
Or is the circle too small...
If he wanted to, he could have exchanged ten a day...
He is too picky, and his dislike for stupidity far exceeds his love for beauty, and he can't accept stupid women at all, and he always feels that those stupid factors are hidden deep in that abyss, and when the opportunity comes, he will climb up the pole.
This may be his memory bonus!
In my memory, Shen Xudong has worked for nearly 30 years, and he has never been able to accept his pig teammates. The preference for appearance is not worth mentioning in the face of disgust for stupidity. In the face of the stupid girl, I really don't even have the most basic physical desires...
Okay, pull it back, the hotel's large suite, huge floor-to-ceiling windows, outside the window is the night scene, Shen Xudong and the floor-to-ceiling windows sandwiched between Zeng Li...
At the end of the exchange, Zeng Li suddenly sighed, 'Several of the plays I take now are playing mothers!' ’
"A real actor will not covet the flashiness of the character's surface!"
"That's what I said... Director Zhang Yi asked me to play my mother, of course I was willing! ”
Shen Xudong was surprised: "Zhang Yi? ”
"That's right, "Parasitic Upperclass", it's all filmed!"
"You play the chairman's wife?"
"Hmm... Play with Mr. Chen Daoming..."
“… I thought Zhang Yi would find Zhang Ziyi or Gong Li! ”
"No, this drama is basically made up of actors from our company... My role was originally given to Chen Hao, but she likes the role of Zhong Shu..."
Zhong Shu is the wife of the male protagonist Jin Baocheng and the mother of a poor family...
Compared with the chairman's wife, Zhong Shu has more room to play...
"What about Parasitic Superiority?"
Zeng Li smiled: "I've been staying in Xiangshan since December last year, let's see how many crews are looking for me to play my mother... Then a rough estimate, there are about 6 plays..."
Shen Xudong was puzzled: "Why do you stay in Xiangshan?" ”
"I'm too lazy to go back to the capital... I bought a small villa in Xiangshan, raised a dog, and took it into the group every day during the day and went home at night... It's interesting! ”
“… Are they all PPTV dramas? ”
"Yes..."
Speaking of this, Zeng Li asked in a low voice: "How much do you guess I made in six plays?" ”
“… How much? ”
"30 million, each is five million..."
"All after taxes?"
"Hmm..."
Shen Xudong calculated for a moment, then nodded: "... You are also a first-line TV drama actress, this price is quite reasonable! ”
“… The internet is so rich! ”
"Hehe..."
Shen Xudong did not continue this topic...
The price of five million is definitely not sky-high...
Wait, there will be 60 million, 80 million remuneration out...
……
The Shanghai Film Festival is 'very important', major film and television companies, and major film projects regard it as a propaganda town, a bunch of film list press conferences are held, XX movie night...
Cooking with gas!
No one cares about the Golden Jue Forum in the main competition unit at all...
Nowadays, the Shanghai Film Festival has gradually developed into a gimmick more than substance, because there are not many people who really care about the ownership of the award except for the filmmakers and the main creators who have been shortlisted for the awards.
Who will go to the festival?
The vast majority of people are holding the mentality of joining in the fun, participating in various forums, various activities, participating in various xx nights, mixing in one game after another, and running around various banquets has become the new normal.
Everyone was busy in BJ, and it was not easy to make an appointment, but they gathered in Shanghai, made countless appointments in BJ to no avail, and finally met in a certain bureau in Shanghai.
Talking about cooperation and projects often become secondary, and mixing circles has become their real purpose.
In addition, there are some peripheral bastards, people from the periphery of the movie, peripheral actors, people who claim to be producers and directors, various peripheral investors, and so on.
In short, the festival is a mixed world, each with its own ghosts, but rarely related to the film itself.
A little bit of statistics, at least more than 200 films have been unveiled.
Of course, most of them only exist in "PPT", and they are not filmed in the end.
In fact, the film list press conference is, to some extent, a helpless move by the company for valuation and attracting attention, and there are very few people who can really successfully convert in the market.
Everyone is making a PPT speech, how to attract attention?
You've got to be able to live!
For example, Lust Pictures announced its transformation in a high-profile manner - no longer defining itself as a simple film and television company, but transforming into an IP operation company with film and television content as the main medium for users.
Therefore, Zhang Zhao, CEO of Lust Pictures, called the 12 movies released by Lust Pictures 12 IPs at the press conference.
Huayi Brothers no longer announced a simple film list, but announced 10 new works by 10 directors with Plan X!
Directly invited the directors to play, including Xia Yongkang, Chen Guohui, Lin Shuyu, Wu Ershan, Feng Delun, Niu Chengze, Peng Haoxiang, Yu Rentai, Cheng Long, Feng Xiaogang...
Oh, Cheng Lung didn't come - he was still filming, but he also supported it via video link...
Wanda and Ahri are not to be outdone, the former invited Keanu Reeves, and the latter has Wang Jiawei and Chen Kexin...
TiMi Group was the least creative, and didn't even hold TiMi Night...
Shen Xudong has a serious business - he came to the film festival for one purpose, to participate in the forum unit...
……
The theme of this year's forum is 'Will the film industry be disrupted?' ’
Yu Dong said directly, 'In the future, the film company will work for BAT!' ’
"Let's talk about cinemas first, Wanda already accounts for nearly 20% of the Chinese film market share, but its box office has been overtaken by ticketing systems like Maoyan within a year.
I heard that in the first half of this year, the ticket sales of the three major online ticketing platforms of Maoyan + Taopiao + Baidu Nuomi nationwide were close to 7 billion yuan at the box office, exceeding the sum of the top ten cinema chains. ”
"Overnight, making movies is no longer the preserve of film companies, and the impact on the film industry is obvious. Where is the way out for traditional film companies in the future? What are the choices and directions? ”
"From the perspective of the overall market capacity, there are only a limited number of films that can be made in the market every year, and BAT comes to invest in making films, which obviously squeezes the space for traditional film companies to make films. And BAT is not short of money, and it is easy to smash multiple movies with money. ”
"There is also a business model, where traditional films rely on the theatrical box office to recoup costs and make profits. But one of BAT's goals for the future is to develop online cinemas that allow people to pay to watch movies in their living rooms. ”
Zhang Zhao agrees with him: "The business model of traditional films has fallen behind, and the opportunity for film companies in the future is based on the user operation model of IP.
Specifically, the focus of film companies is on users, not previous directors and artists. What users like to watch, who they like to direct, who to act, you provide such needs. The battlefield of the future film market is the Internet, which is also the key to the resistance of Chinese films to Hollywood. ”
Zhang Zhao even said, 'In the past, what we filmed was based on feeling, and it was impossible to predict how much the box office would get. Now, big data-based analysis can tell producers what scripts to shoot, what directors to choose, and how much the box office will be in the future. ’
Shen Xudong was completely speechless when he heard this...
