"People in Embarrassment" is of course very good!

According to the annual box office data released yesterday, "People in Embarrassment" 92.31 million ranks fourth among domestic films, second to "Assembly Number", "Casting Names" and "Lust and Caution", even if you add Hollywood blockbusters, it can also rank ninth.

It is a hit of the year.

In terms of word-of-mouth, the media score is 7.6 points, and the audience score is 7.8 points!

It's already very good that a comedy can have such a high rating.

A play, Xu Zheng is among the best-selling directors...

Of course, the desire of the boiled egg is to become a first-line actor...

Shen Mengxi also became famous in one fell swoop, and his prestige value has reached a new height, far exceeding last year's operation of "Crazy Stone", "Stone" publicity relies more on Andy Lau, and "People in Embarrassment" emphasizes more on Shen Mengxi's screenwriting and production.

It's a normal thing, just like "A City" and "Sadness Flows Into a River" when they were promoted, the main Han Han's original work or Guo Jingming's producer!

Whoever is more famous, will be promoted.

"People in Embarrassment" plus the casting of "Moving Maze", Shen Mengxi is really a celebrity in the circle now!

......

Huang Lei poured him a cup of tea and asked casually: "I read a few of your interviews two days ago, how do you feel that you have an opinion on Hong Kong and Taiwan actors?"

"Thank you..."Shen Mengxi took a sip of the cup, and then said: "I can't talk about having opinions, but my attitude towards them is a little unhappy!"

"People have experience and know how to make money at the box office, we are just starting out, many places are immature, and we have to learn from others to have appeal..."

"I also know how to make money at the box office. ”

Huang Lei looked at him: "Tell me!"

Shen Mengxi put down the teacup: "Blockbusters and low-cost comedies, in their current form, may be more than 70% of the blockbusters." ”

"We lack an intermediate link, that is, we invest 20 or 30 million in the living space of the film..."

Huang Lei interrupted him and asked, "Will you do it?"

"I have already done it, and the investment in "Ip Man" is 38 million..."

"Ip Man?"

"Bruce Lee's master, Grandmaster Wing Chun, I inquired about CCTV's broadcast of "The Legend of Bruce Lee", which can be regarded as helping us publicize..."

"Go on!"

"At present, 80% of the film revenue is shared at the box office, and the rest of the TV copyrights, video copyrights... There are also overseas copyrights, but to be honest, overseas copyrights are generally not sold for low-cost films!"

"Can't the overseas income of "People in Embarrassment"?"

"No, the overseas market is a region or a country to sell as a unit, it is not for domestic films, it does not mean that you think you can't sell it for 20,000 US dollars, you can sell it for 10,000 yuan, its concept is that if you can sell it, you will have a due price, and if you can't sell it, it's 0, you don't have a point!

"Generally, domestic films, if they can be called the first line of Hong Kong and Taiwan, they can still sell Southeast Asian copyrights..."

Huang Lei smiled: "Then you still have opinions about others!"

"I mean, the first-line actors in Hong Kong and Taiwan, the salary of those first-line actors is at least 15 million, I can't afford it! In another two years, local films in Southeast Asian countries will rise, and don't think about overseas markets!"

"Okay, I know, but I want to remind you, just say these things in private, don't put them on the public platform, now co-productions are the mainstream!"

“... Yes, Teacher!"

Shen Mengxi was very reluctant to slap himself twice, really, he would say anything!

Is there a bit of a big picture?

Huang Lei smiled: "It's okay, you're only 23 years old, there's nothing wrong with being young and vigorous!"

"I'm afraid that others will hold on to it... By the way, teacher, why don't you play "Wang Gui and Anna"?"

At the beginning of "Wang Gui and Anna", Teng Huatao wanted to find Huang Lei to play Wang Gui, but he refused, and then found Lin Yongjian...

"I'm afraid I won't be able to act that feeling..."

"No, you're an acting teacher!"

“... Just because I'm a teacher, I'm very clear about my situation..."

......

The two chatted until almost ten o'clock, Shen Mengxi offered to say goodbye, and Huang Lei: "I'll send you!"

“... No, I came by car!"

"By the way, I'll talk to you about something!"

“... What's the matter?"

"Director Liu Jiang, do you know you?"

"Of course I know, the director of "Game in a Game" and "Snow Wolf"..."

"He read a script and wanted to make a movie..."

"Just let him find me!"

"You don't ask?"

Shen Mengxi smiled: "If you can let Teacher Huang be a lobbyist, it means that there must be nothing wrong with the book!"

“... Stop slapping on the back and go!"

"Then I'm leaving!" Shen Mengxi was about to leave, but Huang Lei said again: "That book is called "Departure Today"!"

Shen Mengxi froze slightly, but quickly drove away...

"Departure Today", a very good low-cost romantic comedy by Mr. Fan Wei...

The screenwriter of this movie, Zha Muchun, has a lot of works, and later mixed with Brother Bo and helped him sort out "A Good Show", "Departure Today" is his best word-of-mouth work, and the others are all failed comedies, "Kidnapping Ice Cream", "No Defense" and "Havoc in Tianzhu"...

Back to "Departure Today", the box office of this movie is not high, it doesn't seem to break 10 million, but it has also returned to its original cost because of the low cost...

......

The next morning, Shen Mengxi met Liu Jiang and his wife Wang Tong in the office, yes, it was the Qing Emperor's sister Tong!

opened the script of "Departure Today" and glanced at it:

“... Come on, let's meet up with a few actresses!"

"Don't don't, I see a strange woman, I'm nervous..."

"Don't be nervous, this is the entertainment industry, how to write the word entertainment? Add a Wu next to the female character, if you take the female one, it will become a no music circle!"

Seeing this paragraph, the corners of Shen Mengxi's mouth opened slightly, and then put down the book of "Departure Today" and looked at Liu Jiang: "I voted for this book!"

“... Sister Li, you calculate the approximate cost of production, and then arrange for the project to be approved..."

Wang Tong interrupted Shen Mengxi's words: "Producer Shen, casting?"

"Do what Director Liu wants, I don't have any opinion..."

Any comments can you have?

This book clearly sells for less than 10 million, unless you can find Ge You...

Shen Mengxi just wanted to propose Ge You, but when he thought that if Ge You joined, then other configurations would have to change, and the cost would not be able to stop...

Teacher Fan Wei, it's good!

Also, the most important reason why he voted for "Departure Today" is not the project itself, but the director Liu Jiang.

This person's battlefield spy war dramas, family dramas, and even urban romance dramas are well filmed.

A rare all-round TV drama talent.

Wang Tong and Li Yiping went to discuss the production plan of "Departure Today", Shen Mengxi poured Liu Jiang a cup of tea, and then said: "Director Liu, I have a book here, when you finish filming "Departure Today", let's work together again?"

"Movies?"

“... It's a TV series! I've seen your "Years", it's really good!"

"Where, the main script itself is interesting. ”

"Then when "Departure Today" is released, let's talk about the book?"

"Okay..."
