Chapter 429: Zhang Shengyi changed his previous style
Changsheng Entertainment has abundant funds and is well known.
Naturally, it is indispensable to find the door to attract investment.
If it is good, the company will more or less invest a little.
In addition, it is indispensable to cooperate with other companies to invest.
However, those investments are not large.
After all, risks are hard to manage.
Compared to the script provided by Zhang Sheng, the risk is definitely greater, but why does Zhang Sheng still allow it?
Wouldn't it be better to invest in a film that he "wrote"?
The original version has some reference value.
However, from the perspective of company development, foreign investment is inevitable.
If nothing else, the actor resources will increase a lot, right?
In the company's self-made dramas or self-made films, the company's artists may not all be suitable.
Then you have to look for resources outside.
And almost all of the company's artists can carry a drama or a film.
I am afraid that the exchange of resources alone may not be satisfied.
The male and female protagonists of Changsheng Entertainment's film and television works rarely fall into the hands of other companies.
You can't always change the supporting role for the main character, right?
What's more, if a company relies on Zhang Sheng's support, the company is obviously problematic.
Of course, the company's vision is quite good.
Those investments make more money and lose less.
"Huanna Entertainment has a blockbuster released this year?" Zhang Sheng looked at Gu Sisi and asked.
Why did Gu Sisi ask that, it is estimated that he heard about it from Huanna Entertainment.
The films of the two companies should have collided.
It's really nothing.
It's just a gear collision, what a normal thing.
"There are films released on National Day and Spring Festival." Gu Sisi nodded and said, "There will also be a small-budget film released in August." ”
August also belongs to the summer season, but it is just behind.
"Your company is not small." Zhang Sheng said.
Huanna Entertainment has undoubtedly increased its investment in movies compared to the past.
It is estimated that he drank too much soup with Changsheng Entertainment, and he also wanted to get a piece of meat to eat.
Changsheng Entertainment has developed rapidly in recent years, and Huanna Entertainment, which often cooperates with it, has naturally taken a hitchhike and developed very well.
Now it is not a top film and television company in China, and I am afraid it is not much worse.
When Gu Sisi heard this, he smiled.
With an investment of hundreds of millions of blockbusters, those first-line film and television companies in China can produce and shoot one a year, which is actually good.
And Changsheng Entertainment had several last year.
And one is more expensive than the other.
If the stall is spread out so much, it is estimated that Changsheng Entertainment will dare to do that.
Huanna Entertainment has two blockbuster films released, or because of the long post-production cycle of one of them.
If you hadn't participated in so many movies of Changsheng Entertainment, which were quite profitable, and you were full of soup, I'm afraid Huanna Entertainment wouldn't dare to be so "extravagant".
"Which movie will your company release on National Day?" Gu Sisi asked, "Terminator 2 or Resident Evil 3?" ”
"Lao Liu's "Truman's World"!" Zhang Sheng said, "Which movie will be released during the Spring Festival has not yet been decided. ”
"Isn't there another movie that's going to be released for next year?" Gu Sisi was a little surprised and said, "The Christmas and New Year's Day schedule is actually not bad, right?" ”
"Don't you look at what time it is this year's Spring Festival?" Zhang Sheng said.
The schedule is good, but the time is exaggerated too short.
This year's Chinese New Year's Eve is in mid-January.
This means that if it is released on Christmas and New Year's Day, it will be hit by countless blockbusters during the Spring Festival more than half a month later.
It is naturally not cost-effective to put a blockbuster movie in this kind of schedule.
The reason why Changsheng Entertainment's movie box office is so high is largely due to the fact that the popularity continues to be long.
And above the box office, it has always been very good.
Those films were released for less than a month.
Changsheng Entertainment naturally can't look at this year's Christmas and New Year's Day schedules.
"If "Resident Evil 3" is released next year, when will it be?" Gu Sisi frowned and said, "May 1st? Or after the summer season? ”
"Transformers" is scheduled for the summer, and other films of Changsheng Entertainment will naturally not be released at the same time.
"Huh?" Zhang Shengleng paused for a moment, and then said, "This is really a problem." "Resident Evil 3" will be released during the Spring Festival, you have no problem there, right? ”
Zhang Sheng and Gu Sisi are preparing to get married next year, and they deliberately vacated the schedule.
After getting married, I planned to go around the world.
If "Resident Evil 3" is released on May Day, and Gu Sisi, as the starring actor, will not participate in the promotion.
But if it is placed after the summer file, then this movie will be a little longer.
A movie, if it takes too long.
The return of the company's funds is a problem, and it is also consuming the expectations of fans.
"No problem." Gu Sisi said, "The movie released by the company during the Spring Festival is not starring me. ”
That movie is a male lead movie, and the female protagonist's sense of presence is very weak, so Gu Sisi naturally won't star in it.
Gu Sisi is now very cautious in taking over the play.
Not to mention the film of the big heroine, but if the heroine's sense of existence is too weak and there is nothing eye-catching, she will not participate.
Even if it's a big production.
Pick the director, pick the team, and pick the actors you work with
Gu Sisi now has such qualifications.
The most box office appeal actress in China.
The actress with the highest cumulative box office in China.
Gu Sisi is now the most box-office resistant among domestic actresses.
There is no one of them.
She has no shortage of films.
What's more, there are also resources from two big film and television companies in hand.
Zhang Sheng was busy with the later stage of "Transformers", and he was not so busy, so Gu Sisi rested at home for a few more days.
However, she is a person who can't be idle.
Then I was busy.
The promotion of "Kung Fu Panda" is carried out in an orderly manner.
The film is scheduled for early July, and it will also be released abroad one after another.
The release time is all in the summer file.
Domestically, there were no decent blockbusters released in the same period.
And the film is also the most popular one in the summer file.
With several trailers released, it is not difficult for fans to see that the quality of this film can definitely compete with Hollywood's animated masterpieces that have taken the world by storm.
Zhang Sheng also occasionally participates in the promotion of this film.
After all, he is not only the screenwriter of the film, but also the executive producer of the film.
The animation shapes inside are all out of his hand.
Of course, the most important thing is that the biggest investor in this film is him.
The film was a success, and he was the biggest beneficiary.
"I have a lot of confidence in the movie Kung Fu Panda. Whether it's the box office or word of mouth. ”
"As for whether the box office will surpass "Nezha"? I can only say that if the global box office is not as good as "Nezha", then this movie is not a success. ”
"Compared with the movie "Nezha", the story of "Kung Fu Panda" is more suitable for the international market."
"Technically, the film is also a big improvement. The cute and lively animal characters are lifelike, and various details such as animal hair and clothing threads have a touchable texture. ”
"No matter the usual expressions and demeanors, the fierce movements and fights are smooth and natural, and the shots of kung fu martial arts scenes are designed to be funny and interesting, and often very cool."
"Pandas, tigers, monkeys, snakes, several different animal characters have different fighting tricks and styles, the funny of the panda, the ferocity of the tiger, the agility of the monkey...... Absolutely top visual enjoyment, one has to praise the enjoyment! ”
"And these movements are designed so that you can see the shadow of Chinese kung fu." The word 'kung fu' is definitely more than just a gimmick. ”
"In the movie, every flower, grass, tree, tree, brick, tile, street, house, costume and other things in this ancient town...... Everything is completely Chinese, and at the same time full of imagination in the animation world, there is no clutter, no half-four! ”
"Kung Fu Panda is definitely an international animation masterpiece. The quality of this movie is definitely worthy of the words 'kung fu' and 'panda'. ”
Zhang Sheng changed his conservative style in the past, and praised "Kung Fu Panda" to the fullest.
This is definitely not boasting.
No one thinks that Zhang Sheng is making bold hype.
He is full of confidence in this movie.
Whether it is "Kung Fu" or "Panda", these two words are of great significance to Chinese people.
Zhang Sheng said that quality is worthy of these two words, which shows his confidence.
Have faith?
Whether the domestic box office can surpass "Nezha", Zhang Sheng really doesn't have much confidence.
So when asked this question, he said the global box office.
After all, one before the other.
"Nezha" has such a high box office, in addition to the quality of the movie itself, some special meanings have stimulated the movie-watching boom of fans, which naturally also promotes the box office of the movie.
For example, to open the Chinese film animation market.
This gives the movie "Nezha" a special meaning.
The release of "Kung Fu Panda" obviously lost these special significance.
What's more, after the appearance of "Nezha", fans' requirements for animated films have changed.
Fans have a higher eyesight.
Even if the quality of "Kung Fu Panda" has improved, the impact on people is much smaller than that of "Nezha" when it was released.
However, the global box office surpassed "Nezha", and Zhang Sheng is still confident.
After all, the box office of the movie "Nezha" abroad is really not good.
Zhang Sheng has already seen the finished film of "Kung Fu Panda", so he can naturally see how good its quality is.
I have to admit that Yang Qi is a qualified tool person.
He once again gave Zhang Sheng a satisfactory answer.
"Kung Fu Panda" exploded directly because of Zhang Sheng's "bold words" during promotion.
"Forty-five percent?" Zhang Sheng looked at Zhou Zhao with some surprise and said, "Why is it so high?" ”
Although there were no blockbusters released during the same period, it is rare to win so many films.
This row of films should be a record-breaking!
How can an animated movie be treated like this?
"The popularity of the film is so high, it is almost the most anticipated movie in the summer file, and the market is very optimistic." Zhou Zhao said, "In addition, at the beginning of the summer season, the potential of the previously released films was exhausted, and there were no decent films in the same period. What's more, there are also two largest theater chains in China to support. ”
There are many investors in "Kung Fu Panda", including Penglai Film and Television.
Penglai Group's cinema chain is the largest cinema chain in China.
And what about the second-largest cinema chain?
Now it is in the hands of Changsheng Entertainment.
