Chapter 183 Criteria for Picking Up the Play (1) (1/5)
"Fuchun Mountain Residence" is the owner of an extremely famous advertising company in the capital. He usually likes to talk big and direct the country. With his perfection, he wants to make a movie that proves his strength...
This boss is Sun Jianjun!
Chen Mengxi knows him, and even more about his background...
Let me put it this way, Mr. Sun has made two movies before: "Love Call Transfer" and "Destiny Call Transfer". The lineup is comparable to the founding of the People's Republic of China...
They were able to study in the United States in the 1980s!
"Fuchun Mountain Residence" is said to be a good script...
English name - Switch, the meaning of Nintendo!
Action, thriller, science fiction, adventure, treasure hunt, police and gangsters...
A mixture of various elements!
He said that a Hollywood director would come and shoot it. After checking the investment, he felt it was not enough. Then Mr. Sun went on stage in person...
The greatest significance of "Fuchun Mountain Residence" is a collection of wrong questions. If you read it a few times and study it, you will gain a lot of experience!
“Can this project be rejected?”
"It's hard to refuse. China Film and Hangzhou Propaganda Department supports Xiao Yang and invites Xiao Yang. What you value is her market appeal..."
"Then why not invite Yifei?"
Li Yiping looked at him strangely: "It's not that the market price of the film pay starts at 25 million. If it is calculated as a share, it's 800+15%. Who can afford it?"
Yes, Liu Dehua's salary is also 20 million yuan. Will the producer still make money?
Not all projects are called "Painted Skin 3"!
"Which movie Zhou Runfa is called "Bronze Bird Platform"?"
“For…Changhai Film Studio production, Light distribution…”
Zhou Runfa, a legendary figure, "Golden Armor", "Confucius", "Bronze Bird Platform" and then "Great Shanghai"... There is also a "Let the Bullets Fly" in the middle.
Since then, I have basically not cooperated with mainland directors...
Why?
I don’t know, maybe it’s because our mainland is not ‘professional’ enough, so we can’t afford to hire a Hollywood-specific Crazy Brother!
Anyway, there are a lot of rumors about Zhou Runfa playing big names in the world...
What other overseas markets...
How is the copyright of "Bongquetai" sold overseas?
Even though Ben, a country that is most interested in the Three Kingdoms, has not been released in "Bronze"... I bought the copyright and broadcast it directly on TV...
How is the box office in South Korea?
It was released on 227 screens in the first week, attracting more than 30,000 viewers, ranking seventh in the weekend box office…
The total box office has not reached 90,000 moviegoers...
After the rise of the mainland market, the so-called overseas copyright was at most a drop in the bucket...
Li Yiping noticed that Chen Mengxi looked unhappy and asked him: "Don't you be optimistic about these two works?"
"I don't think it's good or not..." After thinking about it, he added: "Hollywood has entered the domestic market in a large scale, comedy movies will definitely rise rapidly. Youth movies and romance movies can only be considered organic parts, and there are no better resources!"
"…Well," Li Yiping nodded: "The Hong Kong circle has declined further. In the past, everyone wanted to act in Hong Kong movies..."
The main reason was that the four-year-old double-ice actors were very popular at that time was that Hong Kong filmmakers had the upper hand, and one of the male and female leading actors in the co-production must be a mainland actor...
In order to comply with this regulation, they used mainland actresses represented by "Four Dans and Double Ice" as the heroine of the film, and in exchange for this to ensure that the male protagonist of the film was a Hong Kong artist...
Times have changed!
Hong Kong artists are not that popular.
The more we develop, the more popular the market is the big-time industrial films that the male star leads.
Even the big guys who have had many classic works and characters are still worthless in the film market today, let alone those traffic...
When looking for heroines in commercial big productions, they prefer to look for Qingyi School with good reputation, or simply use newcomers.
Not to mention that the Chinese market is unhealthy, Hollywood is the same!
The good times for actresses ended when the digital age of Hollywood movies came in the late 1990s.
In the past, Hollywood actresses could still become box office superstars with romantic comedy. After digitalization, such movies became small-cost B-level films. A-level big productions are always action films and science fiction films. Female stars completely lost their status. If they want to play big productions, they can only be roles with fringed vases.
As for "Resident Evil", "Wonder Woman", "Tomb Raider", and "The Hunger Games" IPs, which happen to be female, are a drop in the bucket. It would be nice to have one in a few years.
When the two went downstairs and the elevator door was closed, Chen Mengxi suddenly remembered something: "If you have the ability, just send Nini to Stephen Chow. I heard that he was going to film "Journey to the West"..."
“…Zhou Xingchi?”
"right!"
...
After entering January, the film market was close to 100 million on the three days of New Year's Day, and then it fell into silence...
It's only 48 million at most...
"Intimate Enemy" can't pull the market...
Xu Cairen...at least in the movie, I didn't see where the talented woman was!
Before January 10, "Little Dress" was the beginning, "Intimate Enemy", "The Flowers of Flowers", and "The Dragon Gate" rose alternately. On January 11, "The Great Magician", "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: Happy Year of the Dragon" was released...
"The Great Magician": Liang Chaowei, Liu Qingyun, Zhou Xun, Yan Ni, Wu Gang...
This lineup is enviable!
During the promotion, Bona President Yu Fatty shouted a slogan of 500 million yuan in box office: "In recent years, there have been few blockbusters in the Spring Festival, and "The Great Magician" will break this pattern. I hope that with "The Great Magician" to bring the Spring Festival, it will not lose to the movie-watching craze in December, and strive for a box office result starting from 400 million yuan."
"The target is 560 million. Of course, if you can exceed 500 million and take on Zhou Xun who also starred in "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" and "The Great Magician", it will be called "Zhou Shiyi""
"Someone asked me, what is the selling point of "The Great Magician"? What I want to say is that this is an extremely well-made and serious comedy blockbuster. If "The Dragon Gate Flying Armor" sells 3D, then "The Great Magician" sells comedy. Some people asked me, what are we going to fight back against Hollywood blockbusters? I only need to say four words in this period: "The Great Magician."
Then, the box office on the first day was surpassed by "Pleasant Goat", and finally overtook it. On the fourth day of the release, "Detective Sherlock Holmes 2" was released, and then "Reverse War" also came...
It's very embarrassing...
Sure enough, when predicting box office, you must start with a slap in the face!
"Reverse War", Chef Xie + Zhou Milk Tea can't sell it!
Lin Chaoxian's "Reverse War" has inherent shortcomings. At that time, Hong Kong had already returned to the motherland, but Lin Chaoxian had no national consciousness in this movie. Zhou Micha's home in the movie was placed in Beijing, but he had an inexplicable strange identity as the "International Security Bureau". What kind of organization is this?
have no idea!
Wrong character positioning, void character setting, narrow Hong Kong film sentiment, everything, "Counter-war" failed to cause much storm...
When we arrived at "Mekong" and "Red Sea", with the blessing of the consciousness of a great power, it immediately became a hot spot in the market!
There is no big problem with his scene scheduling. Lin Chaoxian likes car collisions and subversive scenes in action movies. In "Operation Red Sea", he even amplifies the damage to cars that he is passionate about to military vehicles and tanks.
I like to use grenades to create explosive effects. Grenades appear frequently in the battle scenes of Operation Mekong, creating violent explosions. In Operation Red Sea, Grenades are still the basic tool for creating vision, and have been sublimated into an expanded version of Grenades such as mortars and missiles...
All of these are displayed in "Reverse War"...
But after watching "Reverse War", you just feel awkward!
The reason is the failure of positioning...
...
Chen Mengxi finished the task and then...he watched the latest monthly expenses of Tudou Video, and was a little confused.
He called Zhang Hongyu directly and asked: "The New Year's Eve concert is so expensive?"
"…At this price, the three TV stations have a broadcasting fee of 150 million yuan. IQIYI and Youku have also bought it..."
"Okay, I get it!"
Chapter completed!
