Chapter 470: The Little Prince of Literary Films

It is not so much that the company has confidence in this Xianxia movie universe plan, but that they have confidence in Wu Yuan.

Wu Yuan, who has never been defeated, has been full of personality charm in the hearts of the company's employees.

As long as it is the plan and suggestion he put forward, the company thinks that it will be successful, and it is naturally full of enthusiasm and confidence.

However, in fact, this time to engage in the Xianxia movie universe, Wu Yuan himself has no score in his heart.

He very much hopes that this strategy can succeed, and in the next ten or twenty years, the light and shadow era will become one of the top film and television production companies in China, just like Marvel.

But he is not sure that he will succeed, after all, this time he really created a movie universe from scratch, and it is no longer a successful work like before that can be directly plagiarized.

"Soul Ferry: Yellow Spring" can be regarded as an adaptation after borrowing from the original work, and "The Legend of Shushan Xianxia" is really a work written by the company's screenwriting department itself after integrating the background of "Shushan" and "Soul Ferry".

Whether it can succeed or not, Wu Yuan is also beating the drum in his heart.

He can't show how timid he is in front of the company's employees, he can only look confident.

"That's right." After reporting the progress of the two company blockbusters, Li Xiaoping suddenly remembered an interesting thing and said with a smile: "That little prince of literary films has been in contact with the company recently and wants to sign into our company." ”

"The Little Prince of Literary Films?" Wu Yuan was stunned.

There are not many mainland actors who can win this title.

The last one to be called so was Liu Ye, who has now soared to the starring role in mainstream big-budget movies!

"Qin Hao!" Li Xiaoping reminded: "In 2004, he starred in Li Xiaoshuai's literary film "Qinghong" and debuted, and later cooperated with Lou Ye in "The Night of Spring Breeze Drunkenness". ”

"This year, he also starred in Wang Xiaoshuai's "Rizhao Chongqing".

"Speaking of which, you are still his predecessor on the road to being an actor."

"If you hadn't turned into a director after filming "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle", maybe you would have played all the roles he played."

"Huh!" Wu Yuan interrupted Li Xiaoping: "I'm not a transformation, I originally studied directing, being a director is my main job, and going to acting is to play tickets." ”

"Qin Hao, he is a good actor."

"But why did he think of coming to our company?"

When it comes to Qin Hao, ordinary audiences and fans who don't know much about literary films should have their first impression of him being married to Yi Nengjing, a female star ten years older than him.

In later generations, Qin Hao also roamed in the entertainment industry with the name of "Yi Nengjing's husband" most of the time, and it was not until after "The Hidden Corner" that he really left his own fame among the public.

But in a niche group, that is, the group of domestic literary film lovers, Qin Hao's name is famous.

Since "Qinghong" in 2004, he has contributed superb performances in many literary films, making many literary film lovers remember his face and remember his name.

From "Qinghong" to "The Love of Tangbra", "The Night of the Spring Breeze Drunk" to "Rizhao Chongqing", he has left a deep impression on domestic literary film fans.

After Liu Ye, he performed the best in the field of literary films, and was even taken by Zhang Yimou and got the opportunity to star in "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling".

However, the era of light and shadow has never intersected with Qin Hao, that is, there is only a personal relationship between Wu Yuan and Wang Xiaoshuai.

"What else could it be?" Li Xiaoping shrugged: "I can't stand the loneliness anymore, and I want to transform into business." ”

"Although Qin Hao is known as the little prince of literary films in the field of literary films, there is only this name left."

"The salaries for the literary films he took were only tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and the producers couldn't give them out."

"The real money is still commercial films, but no commercial films are willing to ask him to shoot."

"The literary film is performed well, although it can be named, but it also restricts profit."

"Especially now that the literary film market is becoming more and more sluggish and the commercial film market is becoming more and more competitive, they are in an increasingly difficult situation."

"Liu Ye is also lucky, he transformed a few years ago, and the transformation was successful, otherwise Liu Ye would have to end up in a situation like Qin Hao."

Whenever there is a little pursuit of money, the actors in literary films all want to break through in the field of commercial films.

Mainstream actors who can act in commercial films are now paid at a price for half a year, and they can get millions of dollars for acting in a movie!

And Qin Hao, a literary film actor, can only get tens of thousands of dollars for a movie, and this gap is not ordinary.

In particular, these actors who act in literary films, a few years ago, are still at the top of the pyramid chain of contempt, and they don't look down on those commercial film actors who are covered in "copper smell", and feel that they have insulted the profession of actors, and they are just a group of tools led by money.

Only by acting in literary films, going abroad to win awards, and showing his outstanding performing arts, is he a really good actor.

It's quite a bit of the self-esteem of the literati in the past.

As a result, I didn't expect that only a few years have passed, and the actors of literary films have become down-and-out phoenixes who are not as good as chickens, and the market trend has changed greatly.

Originally, the salaries of commercial film actors were similar to theirs, but their salaries rose one by one like rockets, but their group of actors in literary films are still standing still.

Does this give them a balanced mindset?

Qin Hao, a literary film actor who is actively moving closer to the commercial film market and wants to transform, can be regarded as a leader who can adjust his mentality.

More literary film actors simply collapsed their mentality, stopped mixing in this industry, and transformed to do other things.

"Qin Hao's acting skills are really good." Wu Yuan thought for a while, nodded and said, "He can come to our Light and Shadow Era, instead of Huayi, which also shows that he is more optimistic about us." ”

"It's certainly not going to turn him away."

"It just so happens that I also have a book of Chinese commercial films, and I plan to shoot it next year."

"There's a character in the book that suits him very well, and it saves me a lot of effort."

"Then sign him."

"I specifically told him that after joining the company, he will be able to get the opportunity to star as the leading actor in an A-level production film next year."

"Is it your next movie?" Li Xiaoping was puzzled: "Is there already a plan?" ”

"Not really." Wu Yuan shook his head: "It's the script I wrote, I plan to let Leslie shoot it next year, rush the golden rooster, the investment will not be very large, 2D drama, the cost control is enough at 5000-60 million." ”

"Although it is only a 2D feature film, I believe that as long as it can be filmed well, the box office performance will not be bad."

"Director Yimou's "Love of the Hawthorn Tree" is very good, and the market has proved that feature films will never be outdated."

"As for my new movie, this time I also plan to make a feature film about love, and even lower investment, a budget of 30 or 40 million is enough."

"Huh?" Li Xiaoping was stunned.
