Chapter 240: Shocking Scene (3-in-1)

"Xiangjiang can also be, isn't "The Tuner" set in the Xiangjiang area? If "Little People" is also set in Xiangjiang, it doesn't seem to be a problem. ”

"But Brother Long is an international superstar after all, and I also want to expand the overseas market, so I wondered if I should set the story on Omi's side? And then in addition to Brother Long, many other actors are directly played by foreigners? ”

"Will this lead to a huge loss of domestic box office? Now our domestic film market is very prosperous, and Director Li's domestic box office is also very good, there is no need to lose the domestic market for the sake of the overseas market, right? The overseas box office of "The Tuner" is more than 200 million, although the results are not bad, but if you rely on the overseas market alone, maybe the pressure on "Little People" to make money will be relatively large. ”

"The domestic market will definitely not give up, for now, it is still the domestic market to dominate, and at the same time win more overseas box office - all we have to balance the lineup and content in it. How much will domestic actors be used by then, and how much will foreign actors be used? can be carefully planned and discussed. In the conference room of Longqi Film and Television, Li Jingkun, Brother Long, Zhou Deze, Sheng Yuan and others were all present, and at this time, of course, they were discussing Li Jingkun's next film project "Little People".

As I said earlier, Li Jingkun wants to focus on the domestic market while also expanding its overseas revenue.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with this, just like the "Avengers" series and the "Fast and Furious" series, aren't they also very popular at home and abroad?

Of course, Li Jingkun and the situation they are facing are definitely different, but one thing is certain, that is, finding a few more foreign actors for the main roles, and then letting many international big stars help stand on the platform and publicize, can still play a good role in publicity.

The actor is Brother Long, and most of the other characters are Omi, so they will definitely be treated as Omi films, and they will definitely get a better box office than "Tuner" in the Omi region.

After discussing the background of the story, they then began to discuss who the hero's wife should be set up as, Asian or Omi.

And then how many children does the male protagonist have? Son or daughter? How to set the identity of the actor?

Was the former Xiangjiang special police or something? What identity does the villain want? Is there anything else to pay attention to besides being a local gang boss?

The list goes on and on. Moreover, it is not something that can be completely negotiated and resolved in one afternoon, because many things still need to be checked and then taken out for analysis and determination.

So they discussed it for a few days before they finally settled on most of the contents. At the same time, we have also signed a cooperation contract, and we will soon start to apply for the project.

The question of Brother Long's salary was finally solved perfectly! Brother Long's salary is naturally slightly discounted, but it is not particularly low, because he still has to maintain his own value and status!

However, half of the funds can be said to be provided by his company itself! Yes, there are currently two tentative production companies for the movie "Little People", one is Longqi Film and Television, and the other is Brother Long's own company.

The main funding for this film is currently paid by these two companies, so the remuneration given to Brother Long is not much less, and he still enjoys a global share of the box office.

However, the share ratio between domestic and foreign countries is also different, and he is relatively higher abroad; In China, because Li Jingkun's fame is not lower than him, the box office appeal is higher than him, so the domestic share ratio is not too high.

It looks like Brother Long has suffered a loss, but in fact, he doesn't, it's just that if most of the salary is from his own company, then he himself will make a little less.

And if there are other film and television companies to participate in the later stage, they can also pay a little more for production funds.

After all, this is a movie between Brother Long and Li Jingkun, and the probability of making money is very high, so you can make more money, but it's okay to share a little less····· It depends on whether there are companies willing to cooperate and willing to take this risk.

"It's okay, it's almost all about it now, just wait for you to perfect the final script!" Things are over, and then a new phase begins.

In other words, the project is now officially launched, and now it can be considered to have entered the preparatory stage.

And after talking about business, in order to celebrate the happy cooperation, Brother Long began to ask everyone to go out to eat together.

He is a very lively person, and he often eats with a lot of staff, and often likes to act as the person who orders food.

Brother Long has a very good memory, and after more than a dozen people each reported to him the dishes they wanted, he could remember how many dishes you ordered when the dishes were delivered, and then what they were.

This time, in addition to the people he brought, seven or eight friends from Longqi Film and Television also went with him. This time they ate in a private room in the hotel, and they sat together at two tables.

At this time, the topic of conversation was relatively relaxed, because I happened to hear Liu Tianxian's latest song on the road just now, so Brother Long also told him about music.

"The song of Tianxian is very popular! I've been hearing this song a lot lately, and I've noticed that a lot of people are talking about it online. ”

"It's not bad, it's a promotional song for our other movie."

"So what do I say? You're too versatile! I can even write songs, and the quality is so high! "Brother Long is in a good mood, and he is still in good spirits after talking about a day's work.

However, for Li Jingkun, he also said not all praise, and then he said that he had the opportunity to write a few masculine and atmospheric songs, and it was not interesting to write love songs······ Then Zhou Deze and others gave it to him

"Popular science" for a while, saying that Li Jingkun also wrote a few inspirational songs, and even English inspirational songs.

Brother Long was surprised: "Really? English songs? I'm lonely — I'll have someone buy your album back tomorrow and listen to it! ”

"No, now you can find my songs with a casual search on your phone." So Brother Long asked the hotel staff to bring a pair of big stereos, and then played Li Jingkun's song.

Soon after, he fell in love with Li Jingkun's two English songs: "Fire" and "SomethingJust Like This".

Not only is the melody very moving, but the meaning expressed in the lyrics is also something he likes very much. Brother Long just likes this kind of passionate and uplifting song!

······ With the passage of time, the song "Decent" has spread more and more widely, and its popularity has become more and more popular, and it is in the top ten of the hit list on many music platforms.

And its singer Liu Tianxian is increasingly regarded as a real singer - although she has not released an album seriously in recent years, several singles that have been launched are so popular, it is not too much to say that she is already a pop music singer.

The popularity of the song naturally made more netizens pay attention to the movie "Bouquet of Love", and naturally began to look forward to and discuss this movie.

The few people who have seen the movie, combined with the plot of the movie and the song itself, also expressed their opinions online.

"It's not that good, and it's been going on for more than a week."

"It's good, the more I listen to it, the more sad I feel, I want to cry~ I wish everyone a decent breakup!"

"'I love you and don't regret it, and I respect the end of the story', I was fortunate enough to see this movie at the Gaza Film Festival, and I was very impressed by the previous part, two people whose souls are so compatible meet and fall in love, this is really one of the best things in the world, right? It's not too difficult to be happy! But the part that broke up later is also unforgettable, even if they know and love each other so much, they can't resist the cruelty of reality and separate. 'Break up decently, no one should say sorry'. In the later part of the movie, the two worked together many times in order to say goodbye and break up well. Fortunately, it was decent in the end, and fortunately, it was not so ugly in the end. 'It's also very decent to leave, so I lived up to the picture of all these years, loving passionately and paying seriously. 'Yes, the two used to be a couple who loved each other so much, so don't embarrass each other and can't get off the stage, otherwise how can you be worthy of the good things you have experienced together······ Then, couples who have been separated for many years meet again, and their greatest dignity is to treat each other as strangers; Don't make eye contact, don't say a word! Each other has to be each other's best ex, and the best attitude towards the ex is to be 'dead'······ So when you meet someone who is 'dead' on the road, how can you possibly greet him? ”······ Before July began, the release time of "Tuner" in China ended, and the total box office was frozen at 1.58 billion.

Overseas ones have long stopped being screened, with a total box office of 262 million. Therefore, the total global box office of "Tuner" is 1.842 billion soft girls.

At the same time, there was also an Omi blockbuster released in early June, "Jurassic World" got a box office of 110 million on the first day, and then it was also a big song, with a box office of 603 million on the first five days.

If you think about it, it must be easy to break 1 billion in China. And its global results are even more terrifying, and the box office in the first week directly exceeded 500 million meters, becoming the highest global box office film in the first week of film history!

Some people may think that 3.3 billion soft girls don't seem to be particularly powerful, because many movies can get billions of dollars around the world, but it should be noted that this is only the first week box office······ got 3.3 billion in a week, and after a whole month, what kind of terrifying number will it be when it is released!

······ After "Decent" was launched, Liu Tianxian began to participate in some activities frequently, promoting the song and the movie.

Some of the activities she participated in with Li Jingkun, while others were interviewed and recorded separately.

On this day, she was interviewed by Meow Eye Entertainment alone, and talked about some songs and new movies.

Host: "So the song "Decent" is about a breakup, so is the movie "Bouquet of Love" also about a breakup?" Liu Tianxian: "It's not exactly, it mainly talks about two urban men and women whose personalities and hobbies are very compatible, they meet and know each other, and then fall in love with each other." They are a pair of young men and women who are more literary and artistic, and the two literary and artistic young people are in love. But our real life is not so literary, we need firewood, rice, oil and salt, and we need to make money to live. So after meeting and falling in love, and then living together, after living together, you will encounter some practical problems. The last part is the part of the breakup. Host: "So the breakup is just part of the movie." Liu Tianxian: "Breaking up is also part of the relationship. Host: "Then let me ask a more personal question, since you have made your relationship with Director Li public, there have been rumors from time to time that you are going to 'break up', what do you think of this matter?" Liu Tianxian: "It seems that someone spread this on the Internet a while ago, but I'm really a little speechless - if you really want to report this kind of thing, at least wait until the two of us release a new movie, right?" We've been collaborating on new songs and new movies for a while, and our relationship is so good, will anyone believe us when we break up now? ”

"Hahaha, it seems to be too."

"Actually, what I want to say is that the situations that are happening now have really been predicted by Jing Kun. Before we made our relationship public, he said that if we made an official announcement in the future, everyone would go from expecting us to be together to being curious about when we would break up. So I'm not surprised by these rumors at all, we just want to live our lives well. Maybe others also need to earn traffic, and others also need to make money or something, right? In fact, both of us have relatively gentle personalities and are not so demanding in life, so since we got together, there has basically been no real quarrel. The situation of gathering less and leaving more····· There will definitely be, such as when he goes to other places to film; We saw each other less often during that time. But whenever I'm free, I'll fly over to him, haha. yes, maybe it's a little bit inseparable from him, hahaha. Host: "So in your relationship, are you more active or passive?" Liu Tianxian: "You have a bit of a personal problem, haha-I think this should be talked about separately, I will take the initiative in some aspects, and he will take the initiative in some aspects, I feel that we are more complementary." For example, in terms of work, he is definitely busier than me, so of course I will accommodate him, and I will take the initiative to find him - well, it seems that after being together, I take the initiative to find him more often, hahaha! ”······ After the interview program, Liu Tianxian took the car home.

When she arrived home, it was almost eight o'clock in the evening, but she hadn't eaten yet - she said she was coming back to eat with Li Jingkun.

Recently, the two have seen each other a lot, worked together a lot, and will go to the show together in a few days - because they have been promoting "Bouquet of Love" recently.

Therefore, the situation of couples in the entertainment industry getting together less and leaving more has not happened to them at least yet, because some of their work projects are together.

"How's work today? Will it be tiring? ”

"Fortunately, it's just a simple interview, and it's not a difficult job - what about you? How is Brother Long's project going? ”

"In the end, it was decided to shoot on the side of the United States, and the background of the story was set over there. Brother Long also knows a lot of people over there, and he may find one or two film and television production companies to work with at that time, after all, if it is going to be released there, the distribution will have to keep up. "The production company of "Little People" at the beginning was the company of Longqi and Brother Long, although the production cost was only more than 100 million, but in the end it was to be released globally, and it was also a big project.

So this movie is still quite attractive, and it is not as difficult to continue to find investors as imagined.

Huaying's side quickly decided to get involved, so I talked to them recently. At the same time, it may also find one or two Omi companies to cooperate with - and definitely share some of the benefits to the local people, and only by making money together can they work there smoothly.

So the benefits of cooperating with Brother Long are showing up again: Longqi Film and Television doesn't need to go to the film and television company over there.

They only need to verify the identity of the other party, and then directly discuss the ways and conditions of cooperation.

If you can't get along, it's not difficult to continue to find the next film and television company. "Little People" was finally decided to be set in the Omi country, and most of the others will be Omi actors except for the hero's family.

This is determined by the background of the story, and it is also for the needs of the future market - anyway, the director Li Jingkun, the male protagonist is Brother Long, so this lineup will not be rejected by the domestic audience - the main creators are their own people, then this movie must also be a domestic film.

Even if the background of the story is set in Omi, it is for the needs of the market and the need to pass the review.

"Ah, aren't we separated by then? And it's so far away – I just gave an interview today and said that if you go to work in a foreign country, I'll fly over to you often. ”

"Hahaha, then you can't do what you say?" Although they are celebrity couples, they have been together for a long time, and they are actually no different from the lives of ordinary couples.

After staying together for a long time, it is nothing more than eating together, chatting together, watching movies and playing with mobile phones together, etc.

At this time, after they finished eating and taking a shower, they were in their leisure time, so they discussed watching an online variety show together.

This show is called "Wonderful Talk". Because the episode in which Li Jingkun participated in the recording today has been launched, the two are ready to watch it together.

Regarding "Wonderful Sayings", in fact, Ma Dong also invited Liu Tianxian before, but because she has never been interested in variety shows, she did not agree to his invitation.

That is, she will consider one or two big TV variety shows, and the others have basically not been on it, let alone that this is an online variety show.

But on the contrary, her boyfriend likes variety shows very much, but because of his identity, there are not many variety shows he can attend.

There are only some language programs suitable for him; And "Wonderful Sayings" is obviously like this, and he himself likes this show very much, so it is reasonable that he will agree to Ma Dong's invitation.

"Are there three hosts?"

"Yes, this season is three, Ma Dong, Jin Hao and Cai Kangyong·····." The show began, and at the beginning, Li Jingkun and the three hosts also recorded a title, which was just a simple chatter and nonsense, and then soon entered the official recording content.

The recording site of "Wonderful Story" is very fancy, and the colors are very bright, with red, blue, green and purple colors; The people who participated in the show were also dressed very conspicuously, and most of the dressing styles matched the scene very well, with bright colors and a strong sense of design.

Jin Hao and Ma Dong wore purple tops, Cai Kangyong wore black sequin tops, and on his left shoulder was a flower pattern arranged with playing cards.

Li Jingkun also followed the local customs today, wearing a brightly colored dress and a blue suit.

In a burst of cheerful background music, after the camera flashed over the faces of the director, guests and strange debaters, Cai Kangyong began the first line: "I am a congressman who is too short and has to add insoles Cai Kangyong!" The camera came to Jin Hao's side: "I'm too straight and I have to have a poisonous tongue!" The last shot was given to our fat host Ma Dong: "I have too big bags under my eyes and I have to cut off ·······"

"Hahaha" just said this, and someone at the scene laughed.

“······ Which big cut - mm horse! There was another burst of laughter at the scene, but Ma Dong did not panic at all, he continued: "Come on, we are ·····"

“kjm!” The three mentors said in unison!

"Bang Bang!" The audience and debaters laughed and gave them applause and cheers. Ma Dong said: "Welcome everyone to visit us, the North Korean men's group!" Then, this show invited our 1 billion director, I like very much, the youngest, most talented and most promising 'genius director' in China - Li Jingkun! ”

"Oh!"

"Welcome! Welcome! ”

"So handsome!"

"Bang Bang!" After Ma Dong's long prefix was pronounced, the applause and cheers at the scene were particularly intense - there was really no exaggeration at all!

Everyone is happy and honored. Even in the back, many viewers stood up directly.

Then, like a butterfly effect, more and more audiences and debaters also stood up one by one. At the end, everyone in the audience was standing there cheering and applauding!

When the three directors saw this scene, they also laughed and applauded, and then stood up. To be honest, Li Jingkun was really a little surprised, he didn't expect them to give him such a grand courtesy!

So he quickly got to his feet. Then bow to them and salute: "Thank you, thank you!" After a while, everyone finally sat down one after another, and then Ma Dong said with a little emotion: "Really, it's very good, and it's a special honor to invite Jingkun to our site." ”

"Yes." Jin Hao nodded. Ma Dong continued: ""The Tuner" is so good-looking, a great movie, and it is so wonderful - from "Introduction to Architecture", to "Exploration of Chinatown", to "The Nameless" and "The Tuner" released in the last year or two, it is no exaggeration to say that Li Jingkun will definitely be one of the most important directors in our country in the future, and he will definitely be our film master in the future! ”
