Chapter 255: The Pits
After almost a year of training, Hui Tianci also lived up to expectations, and after the plot of "Silkworm Transformation" changed, he replaced Xu Shaoqiang as soon as he appeared, and won a full house. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the film industry, Hui Tianci is also a soy sauce player.
But in the TV drama industry, for more than half a year, Hui Tianci's fame is only ranked third below Zheng Shaoqiu and Wei Xiaofan.
Especially in Southeast Asia, the image of Yu Zhanzhao has long been deep-rooted, and now they are still playing "The Legend of Bao Zheng".
As soon as everyone saw that "Silkworm Transformation" actually became a performance by Zhanzhao, they were born with a sense of intimacy.
In addition, the structure of the plot is also sophisticated enough, at least it can be justified and passable, so after only two or three days of ratings fluctuations, the ratings in other areas have increased by two or three percentage points compared with before.
On the Xiangjiang side, the people have some opinions, and they feel that this sudden change is a little unpleasant, so the ratings have dropped to about 54%, although they are still beating wireless TV series, but the gap between the two is about ten percentage points.
Keli is already very satisfied with this, the most important and life-saving thing for them now is to sell in other cities, and the audience in Southeast Asia is very satisfied, so they have successfully completed the task, and they have finally not been pitted by wireless.
It's just that this time, even the good old man Huang Xizhao was angry, and he went out directly, willing to spend 100,000 yuan to break Xu Shaoqiang's two legs, so frightened that Xu Shaoqiang, who was hiding in the countryside of the New Territories, didn't dare to show up.
However, he doesn't regret it, the 500,000 Hong Kong dollars given to him by wireless is enough for him to be chic for a year or two, where is it like a beauty, only a hundred thousand yuan for a play?
To be honest, Xu Shaoqiang's appearance, temperament and acting skills are all first-class, if he acts well, he can't go to the super first line, but the TV stars who go to the first line are more than enough, and from time to time he can still play the first or second protagonist in the movie.
But the point is that the person's character is problematic.
Needless to say, beating his wife and abandoning his wife and children, after all, it was his family affair, and it was also Xue Li who was too stupid and blind to find this kind of man to give birth to a child for him.
His attitude towards acting is even more problematic.
There is no spirit of contract, and he only looks at money, and everything is related to money, which is very annoying.
Like this, he can do anything like this to take wireless money and leave behind the TV series he is acting in, and it is reasonable for Huang Xizhao to want to find someone to clean him up.
The ratings of "Silkworm Transformation" have been a trivial matter in the entertainment industry in Xiangjiang recently.
The biggest news is that "Laughing Fist" starring Cheng Long was operated by Golden Harvest to the United States, and it actually sold the copyright of 1 million US dollars, and more than 300 screens in the United States achieved a box office of more than 2 million US dollars in the first week of release.
$1,000,000!
This is the second highest price that a filmmaker in Hong Kong has ever paid in the United States.
The last time was in the era of Li Xiaolong, and that time he earned more, but the fledgling Cheng Long and Li Xiaolong at his peak cannot be compared at all.
is the first time to act in a movie at Golden Harvest, and Cheng Long is already proud of such achievements.
Cheng Long's excitement is needless to say, in the TV interview, he can't even speak with a red face, and there have been slips of the tongue several times.
Not only him, but even Boss Zou aroused the spark of battle and strengthened his ongoing plan.
Yin Jun saw their Jiahe's smug appearance, and he shook his head and smiled.
Now Hollywood is a pit, a huge pit, and if Golden Harvest steps on it, it will definitely fall big.
Come to think of it, now in Zou Wenhuai's heart, he has already started his big plan to brave Hollywood, right?
knew that Zou Wenhuai would fail in a mess, but Yin Jun would not tell him.
It's not because Yin Jun wants to see Zou Wenhuai and Cheng Long unlucky, but Yin Jun knows that there are some things that he won't know the lessons without painful failure.
If it weren't for this failure, Cheng Long would not have made movies in a down-to-earth manner, tried his best to stabilize his basic plate, and laid a foundation that no one could shake in Xiangjiang, Japan, South Korea and even the whole of Asia.
Otherwise, why do you think Cheng Long's "Jedi Escape" can get the treatment of "1 billion packages"? In addition to Cheng Long, who can have such a super high treatment in his 60s?—— 1 billion packages, what is said is that after this movie is produced, several companies have joined forces to sign a contract to ensure that the box office of "Jedi Escape" reaches 1 billion, if it is not reached, the crew will also share the profits according to the box office of 1 billion, and the lack of money will be subsidized by the distributor; if it reaches 1 billion or even more, then the distributor will make a lot more.
In fact, this is a kind of gambling agreement in the movie.
When the movies of big stars are very popular, they can only rely on this way to get the distribution rights.
So in fact, Cheng Long has been contracted in this form since 2013, and he doesn't talk about any salary and dividends at all, but directly divides the money according to the price of the package, and everyone has a work arrangement until he is 70 years old! Many film companies spend a lot of money and can't grab his film package rights.
Of course, such an achievement is also a reward for Cheng Long's hard work for more than 40 years.
It's just that now, Cheng Long's cultivation has just begun, and he still has to fight.
Cheng Long's movies are very profitable, and Xu Ke Xu Laowei, who is also a super-first-class director in the future, is not so successful in his first movie.
After 17 days of release, "Butterfly Change" has already been painted, and the box office results are fixed at around 1.9 million, not even 2 million.
But all the costs of "Butterfly Change" are only 540,000 yuan, a little more than in the previous life, but it also made Wu Siyuan earn about 400,000 yuan, which is a lot of profit compared to the amount of investment.
So Wu Siyuan also had high expectations for Xu Ke, praised him greatly, and promised to invest more money in his next movie.
Hearing that Wu Siyuan was so generous, Yin Jun couldn't help but want to laugh.
Before Xu Laowei was completely finalized, he was also a big pit.
After he finished filming "Butterfly Change", he began to cheat people, and several movies made Wu Siyuan cry and laugh, and he lost money again and again.
Now Wu Siyuan is proud, and he won't be able to wait long, and he will taste the bitterness.
Unfortunately, Wu Siyuan is not the kind of person who has a lot of perseverance.
After Xu Ke's continuous failures, he didn't dare to insist anymore, and gave Xu Ke to the newly established New Art City in vain.
As a result, Xu Laowei was super successful in making his first movie in Xinyi City, and almost didn't Wu Siyuan to death, and said in his heart, buddy, you did it on purpose, right? Leave me a few big holes, you go to the new owner, and you rise all of a sudden!? Isn't this playing with me!?
In fact, this is also a common problem of small companies, because of cost and strength, they can't bear to fail several times, so they can't wait for the day when the bitterness comes.
Yin Jun doesn't care about these things, whether it is Cheng Long, Xu Ke or Wu Siyuan, they are all experiencing the ups and downs that they must experience in their film careers.
If Yin Jun took action to block these hardships and difficulties, they would not have been able to succeed in the end without experiencing the tempering of the wind and rain.
Speaking of martial arts films, talking about Xu Ke, and talking about pits, Yin Jun remembered another famous pit king.
He is Wu Yusen.
, the pinnacle director of Xiangjiang shootout films, is actually very talented.
But he's also a pit king.
For example, the famous "Wind Whisperer" simply created the pinnacle of Chinese directors - MGM directly declared bankruptcy again.
Such a huge failure ruined all the fame and prestige he had accumulated with successful blockbusters such as "Operation Broken Arrow", "Changing Face", and "Mission Impossible 2", making him have no future in Hollywood at all, and he could only return to Xiangjiang in disgrace.
Wu Yusen's biggest feature is his control of gunfight films, which is what we ordinary people call the aesthetics of violence.
The kind full of strength, violence, chic, iron blood, friendship, and the duel between good and evil...... and so on, only he Wu Yusen has done the best and the best.
Tom Cruise took a fancy to him at the beginning, so he invited him to direct "Mission Impossible 2", he only used a big motorcycle, and he expressed Tom's handsomeness to the fullest, making "Mission Impossible 2" his pinnacle.
But Wu Yusen is still too narrow-minded, he keeps using this set of violent aesthetics repeatedly, and he has not thought about how to break through and innovate, and he has not thought about how to add more abilities to himself.
He is not as good as Li Yan, who knows when to learn, when to expand his horizons, and when to devote himself to continuing research and breakthroughs.
So Li Yan even has a pit king work - "The Incredible Hulk", but he was not abandoned by Hollywood, and later won two Oscars for Best Director in one go, which is the highest honor that a Chinese person has received at the Oscars.
In particular, Li Yan's "Life of Pi" broke through the aesthetics he had expressed in the past and went straight to another peak, which is really breathtaking.
Wu Yusen did not have such continuous learning and progress, so Wu Yusen came back in disgrace after suffering a big failure, but Li Yan quickly stood up again after the big failure and stood at the peak of his life.
However, Yin Jun is not worried that he will not be able to use directors like Xu Ke and Wu Yusen, and he is not worried that he will not be able to use superstars like Cheng Long.
Being good at using these actors and directors, as well as those staff, and being good at guiding them to play to their strengths, avoid exposing their shortcomings, or make up for their shortcomings, is one of the important things that Yin Jun needs to do in the future.
Only in this way will Yin Jun's entertainment kingdom succeed!(To be continued.) )
