At 9 p.m., the banquet ended.

Lu Ping'an left the crew under the cheers of everyone.

As soon as he returned to the company, Lu Ping'an received a call from Xiao Target.

"Boss, there's a new project here in Huayi, it's very big!"

"What a project."

"Di Renjie's detective theme, directed by Xu Laowei, plans 24 films."

Lu Ping'an knew as soon as he heard it, isn't that "Di Renjie Trilogy".

The subordinates on the phone said that Huayi wants to work with director Chen Guofu and director Xu Laowei to make it the first epic series of Chinese movies in the 21st century!

Lu Ping'an looked calm after hearing this.

In fact, this series is indeed "epic".

The original time and space, Chen Guofu, Xu Laowei and Huayi really want to make 24 movies.

But then it went astray.

After "Di Renjie 1 Tongtian Empire" came out, the mainland soon entered the era of online dramas and Internet universities.

Then the IP of "Di Renjie" entered the stage of explosive growth of creation.

Countless online dramas and big online movie producers have begun to follow suit.

Moreover, in the film, Master Di's costume style and Kang Longgong are copied from Xu Laowei's "Di Renjie" series.

Then within a few years, the "Di Renjie's xx" series had more than 20 Internet universities, which also made the series stand out from the flood IPs such as "Zhong Kuizhi, Zhang Sanfengzhi, Zhang Tianshizhi, Bao Qingtianzhi, and Fengshenzhi".

surpassed Monkey King, Huang Feihong, and Ip Man to become the No. 1 IP in Chinese films.

Once, Huang Feihong had endless fights.

Now, Di Renjie has endless cases, endless love, and Wu Zetian, who is always changing faces.

As a result, countless practitioners have also been fed.

And Xu Laowei also followed Huang Feihong in the golden age of Xiangjiang, and created a "big IP" in the mainland, becoming the "food and clothing parents" of many low-level practitioners.

Of course, saying that, it doesn't mean how good the quality of Xu Laowei's "Di Renjie Series" is, it just shows that it has a high degree of reproducibility.

This is also one of the reasons why Xu Laowei can't shoot much later.

And for the movie itself.

For example, the first "Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire", this film is actually not bad, except for the lack of creativity, the action is a little worse, the editing is a little messy, the story is a little stupid, the stunts are fake, and everything else is not bad.

In terms of profits.

The cost of the first part is said to be 130 million, and the box office is less than 300 million.

The last two original time and space are only about 600 million, and the cost is more than 200 million.

If the first part of it is converted to the current release, there will be the growth of the national big screen driven by the catfish of Lu Ping'an, and the box office will definitely be higher.

The last two were released after 2013 in the original time and space, but the two films only took 600 million, and the results were really average.

Huayi has also struggled for many years.

It is estimated that the same will be true if it is converted to this time and space.

Because the number of big screens in the country will explode next year.

From below 10,000 digits, it has grown to tens of thousands in a few years.

By that time, the growth effect of the big screen brought by Lu Ping'an's catfish has been very small, after all, his planetary theater cannot sit on tens of thousands of screens.

Therefore, the box office of the movie in that period is estimated to be on par with the original time and space.

In this way, from the perspective of investment, if this project really wants to be selected by Lu Ping'an, of course, the first part will be chosen, and the last two parts will be given up, unless you participate in the change.

Speaking of which, the trilogy is actually quite a pity.

If he did it, revised and modified, the trilogy would be much better than the original plane.

But fortunately, he didn't have much interest in it, and people didn't look for him, so he didn't have to worry about it.

"Don't worry about it, just show me the script when the time comes."

"Understood."

Hang up.

As a result, Huayi Dawang soon called.

"Ping An, I'm going to do a big project here, are you interested in talking?"

Huayi still found it.

Also, not to mention anything else, this film uses a lot of special effects, and Xingchen's special effects are of good quality and cost-effective, and they basically can't get around it.

If you don't take this opportunity to officially bridge the relationship, but you still don't say a word like that when you were in "The King of Kung Fu", you have to break up completely.

Huayi and Wang obviously don't want to go that far.

I have to say that this decision was indeed the right one.

I have been dizzy once, I have suffered a loss, and I have to continue to be dizzy, and their company can't do it so big.

For film investment, it is also very simple, the special effects are next, the distribution is involved, and the screening end will definitely not be able to run.

As for film investment, only invest in the first one, which is good.

Later, when Huayi began to go down again, Huayi must have been listed at that time, because now Huayi has begun to go through the procedure, and the goal is to be the second after Xingchen, and the Huayi share it owns will also be reduced and cashed out at that time.

As for the rest of the matter, it doesn't matter so much.

Lu Ping'an responded and agreed to meet and talk the day after tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Yu Feihong came, which was arranged a few days ago.

She was joined by Sun Li, another producer of the crew.

If there are outsiders, then business is done.

Lu Ping'an spent a morning looking at the master tape.

The content is similar to the original, there is nothing to say.

It's just about the question of ghosts, Lu Ping'an also asked, and Yu Feihong smiled: "Don't worry, I'll solve it." ”

Lu Ping'an gave a thumbs up.

Then he proposed to edit it and handed it to Xingchen Zhang Yifan.

Sun Li's eyes lit up after hearing this, after all, Zhang Yifan is an Oscar winner, and Yu Feihong's face is really big enough!

Yu Feihong was neither humble nor arrogant, his face was calm: "Can I follow along?" ”

"Absolutely."

"Thank you, guide."

"You're welcome, Mr. Yu."

The two discussed the direction of editing for a while like ordinary partners, and had dinner together at noon, all they talked about was movies.

It wasn't until after eating and sending Sun Li away that the two returned to the office that they switched states.

Lu Ping'an smiled and asked: "If I also make a ghost movie, can you help me pass the trial?" ”

Yu Feihong hooked the corners of his mouth: "Look at your performance." ”

Lu Ping'an immediately pulled her into the secret bedroom and began to turn the phoenix upside down.

The annual in-depth exchange is very pleasant.

But Yu Feihong is not greedy for cups, she said that she will be in Xingchen in the next month or two anyway.

Lu Ping'an spread his hands and said, "I'm going to make a new movie in a few days." ”

"Is it 'I Love You'?"

"No, it's a spy war film, it's for gifts, "I Love You" will be filmed, but let's put it later."

The comic version of this movie Lu Ping'an has long been drawn and distributed in small quantities in China and South Korea, and the copyright is worry-free, so it is not a big problem to take it slowly.

Yu Feihong then asked about the gift film.

The film has been prepared for a long time, and some actors have already been finalized, and the rest is the official announcement and the selection of other corner roles, if it is generally fast, it can start filming in a week.

After knowing who the two heroines were, Yu Feihong seemed to see through his thoughts at a glance: "Ready to hug left and right?" ”

Lu Ping'an was speechless: "Is it so obvious?" ”

Yu Feihong's eyes flashed with wisdom: "Guess, but it's also your own fault, judging from the strength of your previous praise of these two people, it will indeed make people reverie." ”

Indeed, a big heroine and an Academy Award actress are all brought out by Lu Ping'an.

There have been public relations in local areas.

Doing so now is indeed reverie.

But Lu Ping'an also said: "I control public opinion very well, and ordinary people don't think about it." ”

As a result, Yu Feihong said: "They are ordinary people? ”

"Don't crow's mouth."

"Then I wish you all the best." (End of chapter)
