Entertainment from Charlotte's Troubles

Chapter 199 Old Nine Gates

In April, the Old Nine Gates will be launched, and there is a lot of preparatory work. Yuan Hua went to Hengdian to work in person, and he had to be busy every day.

At the same time, the box office of Xiuchun Dao's account has come down, with more than 7000 million in hand.

The crew of the Old Nine Gates sat on a chair, and Yuan Hua used his mobile calculator to settle the accounts.

"What are you?" Standing beside him, Jing Tian asked curiously.

"I'll figure out how much I have saved."

Eyes lit up, Jing Tian said, "How much?"

To be honest, she really didn't know how much Yuan Hua had, but she knew that it was quite a lot. As an actor and singer, Yuan Hua's income was not low, and it was not a problem to earn tens of millions a year.

The most important thing is that he also takes into account the roles of investors and bosses of film and television companies.

Li Yifeng, Yang Yang, and Tan Songyun under their banners can also make money.

"Ah!" Yuan Hua looked at the phone screen and sighed heavily, "It's only [-] million."

Lao Jiumen's 5000 million budget, he has already put it out, Yang Yang's Whirlwind Girl's 3000 million, just finished, and it will be a while before the release, so there is no money for the time being.

If these two investments are included, then his deposit funds are [-] million.

Of course, that’s not counting the three properties.

Four hundred and eighty million, seems like a lot, not a big deal in the entertainment industry, some second-generation stars, second-generation rich, richer than him.

Especially now that the market is good, everyone's salary is generally rising.

Most of his [-] million was earned in recent years. In the past few years, he didn't make much money as a wage earner.

In two years, it will be easier to make money in the entertainment industry. A top player like Yang Mi can easily earn hundreds of millions a year.

"Just?" Jing Tian's almond-shaped eyes widened, and his tone was raised: "Are you speaking human language?"

Four hundred million, how many people in the entertainment industry have the ability to attract money, and how many years has Yuan Hua only debuted.

In the past few years, I was not well-known and did not make much money. To be precise, the [-] million was only earned in the past few years, almost [-] million a year.

"I've only saved [-] million after so many years, I'm such a waste." Yuan Hua was annoyed.

"If you are trash, then I don't deserve to live in this world. I don't even have a savings of 1000 million."

Since she was a child, she didn't think much about money, and basically got whatever she wanted, and the big productions she took after her debut were all unpaid.

The concept of saving money is only available this year, but it is a bit late.

Putting the phone away, Yuan Hua didn't want to talk about this topic with Jing Tian. The two had different perceptions. Maybe a few hundred million was a lot in Jing Tian's eyes, but from the perspective of his previous life, a few hundred million was nothing but drizzle.

Shuangzi's daily salary is 77 million, and she earns [-] million in [-] days of filming.

Compared with her, he is a waste.

"By the way, Yang Mi made a lot of money in her childhood, don't you know?" Jing Tian thought of something and said suddenly.

Yuan Hua nodded, Little Times was released last month, and Yang Mi invited him to join in the premiere, which was only released last week.

The total box office is 8000 million.

The Douban score is less than five points.

When he heard the news, he didn't fall asleep all night.

Jing Tian murmured: "The sky has no eyes, why do you think this kind of bad movie has audiences like to watch it?"

The box office of Little Times was 7000 million on the first day, and she contributed a movie ticket for the sake of fame, but it turned out to be very disappointing.

From a professional point of view, whether it is the acting skills of the actors or the theme of the story, what this movie wants to express is not very good.

The whole story is full of luxury and luxury, all kinds of luxury of the upper class, the mansion of the heroine's family, hundreds of pairs of high-end shoes, and all kinds of brand-name bags, which make people dazzled.

Hypocritical, showing off wealth, bloody.

This is her evaluation of Xiaoshi.

But this kind of bad movie has become popular, and the box office is surprisingly high, which is really unreasonable.

"Ahem, I can't say that. Some audiences just like this. Before the appearance of Little Times, this kind of movie hadn't appeared before. With such a movie suddenly appearing, the audience is more curious."

This result was not obtained by Yuan Hua, but by Yang Siwei.

After Little Times became popular, the major film and television companies in the industry had long held meetings and studied it all, discussing the selling points of this movie, its highlights, and why the box office was so high.

The audience's novelty hunting psychology is one of them.

Villa villas, there are not no domestic films showing off wealth, but the ones like Little Times are definitely the only ones for Scorpion Baba.

College youth, sisterhood, love, fighting each other, high society... all kinds of bloody elements come together.

Guo Jingming seems to have extracted the highlights of the idol drama and made it into a movie.

Not to mention, dog's blood belongs to dog's blood, and some female audiences will eat this.

In addition, there is another factor for the high box office of Little Times. The investment in publicity is large, which is said to be tens of millions, and it is possible to make a low-cost movie.

With a lot of publicity and high traffic, the box office in the first week alone was [-] million.

This has also attracted a lot of capital to publicity. Not surprisingly, the publicity of future big-budget movies will definitely double.

"What's so interesting about this, anyway, I don't like it." Jing Tian shook his head.

"You don't have to like it, but you have to allow him to exist." Yuan Hua smiled and said a famous quote from Director Guo: "The second part of Little Times is already in preparation, and Yang Mi is still the heroine."

Little Times has had the success of the first film, and the second film will be sooner or later. Although there is no news of the launch yet, he already knows from Yang Mi that the second film is not far away.

Xiao Guo wants to strike while the iron is hot.

According to his speed, I am afraid that it will be completed in three months and released in the second half of the year.

Jing Tian sneered: "Hehe, I'm sure I'm going to pounce this time. The audience was fooled once, but they won't be fooled a second time."

Yuan Hua shook his head, and said slowly: "Not necessarily, the universe is uncertain, they are all cattle and horses."

None of Xiao Guo’s Tiny Times tetralogy scored more than six points, but the total box office totaled 18 billion. No matter what people in the industry scolded, the box office was stable.

Regardless of the content of the movie, Xiao Guo has already surpassed most directors in terms of this achievement.

In terms of box office alone, it beats 90.00% of domestic directors, and some famous directors are not as good as him.

"What are cows and horses?" Jing Tian was startled.

"Um, bulls and horses mean great potential."

"Really, then you are also a cow and a horse."

Yuan Hua: "..."

When the two were chatting, Zhang Yixing was learning to sing in the Hengdian hotel. He played Er Yuehong as an actor, and his every move was different from ordinary people.

After getting the script, the company arranged for him an acting teacher, who taught him hand in hand and taught the lines word by word. After such a long time, he has gained a lot and learned a lot.

But it's only available in this game.

Because the company gave him cramming supplementary lessons, only for Er Yuehong's script.

Just like the exams in the student days, you can teach whatever you want to test. Once you leave this paper, what you learn is useless.

Zhang Yixing was a little embarrassed by the cheating make-up class, so he called Yuan Hua halfway through and explained the company's arrangements.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Hua agreed.

In fact, if you think about it, you will know that Zhang Yixing, as a novice in acting, wants to learn from the beginning and become a teacher. It is impossible within three to five years. How can the crew give him three to five years.

It is very good to make up lessons by cramming. Yuan Hua doesn't look at the process, he only looks at the result. As long as Zhang Yixing can play Er Yuehong well, it doesn't matter what method he uses.

One week before the official opening of the Old Nine, Yang Yang, Tan Songyun and others joined the group.

The director gathered everyone together, called the hair stylist, and made adjustments to the styling.

"Zhang Yixing's hair needs to be trimmed. We are in the Republic of China drama. No one has bangs. The more common ones are the middle part, three or seven parts, four or six parts, or the back of the head."

"Considering that the appearance should not be ugly, and the appearance of the characters should not be too similar, it will show the personality and handsome side of your characters."

"Brother Hua, let's keep his hair back, or a Korean style middle part." Looking at Yuan Hua, the hair stylist said.

"Zhang Yixing's forehead is relatively wide, and it doesn't look good when exposed. His hair should be a little longer to cover it...Yang Yang can show his forehead, maybe four or six points."

"Sister Jing Tian is a bit troublesome, but we have prepared four looks in advance, so it's not a big problem..."

Trying on costumes, doing hairstyles, familiarizing yourself with the venue in advance, and playing against each other... The production team of the Old Nine Gates has not officially started, and the work has already started.

In the dressing room, Yuan Hua and Yang Yang try on military uniforms.

While trying, Yuan Hua asked, "How is Whirlwind Girl?"

"It was just finished a few days ago."

"I'm asking you for the first time as the protagonist, how was the filming?"

After thinking about it for a while, Yang Yang said: "Very tired."

As the protagonist, basically there are his scenes every day. When he is busy, he shoots [-] hours a day. Although it is an urban drama, there are a lot of martial arts.

Because he played the role of a taekwondo master, he was often injured during filming.

There are so many lines, this is the most lines he has spoken since his debut.

Thinking about it, it would be better to shoot Zhang Qiling. The dumb Zhang can't say a few words in a day, so it's enough to contribute a cold face.

"Then do you still want to be the protagonist next time?"

"think."

"why."

"Because it's fun to be the protagonist." Yang Yang smiled.

Bitterness is really bitter, and pleasure is also really cool. The whole crew revolves around you alone, some people serve tea and water, the hotel you stay in, and the food you eat are also the best.

From group performances to field affairs, make-up, and staff, everyone is not polite, and they are either called teachers or brothers when they meet.

Even the assistant director is polite.

Of course, the best thing about being a leading role is the high pay. One leading role earns more money than his five supporting roles, which is almost the same as his previous year's income.

This is the benefit brought on the surface, and there are countless hidden benefits behind it, such as endorsements, commercial performances, and invitations to variety shows after the broadcast of Whirlwind Girl.

For example, there is also an increase in fame, and a new male number one.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Yuan Hua turned around, took a few photos and continued to change clothes.

After taking off the shirt, the muscles of the whole body are revealed, the chest muscles, biceps brachii are well developed, and there are very obvious eight-pack abdominal muscles.

In Old Nine, he took off the scene. Although it was only 2 minutes, he still chose to use his real muscles and did not set a mold.

"Then you have to work harder. Who doesn't eat dumplings on New Year's Eve, but you have to eat them every day. There are too many people who become popular after a few days and then get cold."

"You know what this circle is like. The most important thing is handsome guys. Of course, I don't want you to rely on your face to eat. It's a good thing to be handsome, but handsome is just a stepping stone. How far can you go?" You still have to look at the works, you don’t want to be a male vase, do you?”

Yang Yang nodded heavily: "Don't worry, Mr. Yuan, I understand, I will take every protagonist seriously."

"Not every protagonist, but every character."

Yang Yang's appearance is good, but unfortunately, his development is not very good. He relies too much on his face, and his acting path is narrowed.

There are only two kinds of his dramas, urban idol, costume idol, and in his previous life, he was called a traffic star when he was in his 30s.

It's too late for transition.

Yuan Hua didn't want to squeeze out his potential before starting to transform, it's best to try to play different roles after he has improved.

Like Li Yifeng, he occasionally pulls over as a supporting role.

……

The day before the old Nine Gates started, Yang Siwei was working in front of the computer while focusing on film and television.

Suddenly, a message popped up in the lower right corner. This is a business group. There are many bosses, producers, and agents in it, all of whom are related to the film and television industry.

"Mr. Yang, doesn't your company like to invest? Wu Jing made a notebook. I don't know if you are not interested."

Someone is ate her.

Yang Siwei clicked in, flipped through the previous chat records, and figured out what was going on in a while.

Wu Jing fiddled with a military-themed movie script and asked himself to be the director and the protagonist, but found 32 companies, and none of them were willing to invest.

It's become a joke in circles now.

Just now someone teased her, which was meant as a joke, not to ask her to really invest.

Speaking of which, this is not the first time Wu Jing has directed and acted on his own. Wolf Fang in [-] was his directorial debut, but it turned out to be a mess, and all his savings were lost.

After many years, it is back again this time.

But because of one defeat, not many people dared to vote for him.

He is neither a famous director nor a traffic star, only a fool voted for him.

Picking up the phone, Yang Siwei called Yuan Hua. Yuan Hua told her before that Wu Jing was going to be a director, remember to tell him.

Yuan Hua played I am a special soldier, and Wu Jing played I am a special soldier: Blade Strike. Guessing that the two might know each other, Yang Siwei didn't think much about it.

Yuan Hua was having dinner with everyone in the old nine-door crew, when Yang Siwei's call came.

"Okay, I see. Help me find his contact information and send it to my mobile phone later."

Holding the phone, Yuan Hua was a little excited.

There is no doubt that Wu Jing is the thigh.

He only made a few hundred million in the few years since his debut, and Wu Jing can make a few hundred million with a Wolf Warrior. The gap is not so big.

Only fools let it go when it is clear that they are making money.

After half an hour, Wu Jing's contact information was sent, and Yuan Hua just finished his meal, and he just dialed, and within two seconds he was connected.

"Hi, I'm Wu Jing."

In a neighborhood in Yanjing, Wu Jing sat on the sofa with red eyes and a haggard face.

This is his private number, and he doesn't usually answer strange calls. Recently, because he is busy investing in Wolf Warriors, he has given the number to many bosses, and he doesn't know when they will call, so he dare not refuse.

"Hello, I'm Yuan Hua."

"I am your uncle!"

Wu Jing hung up instantly.

He and Yuan Hua have no intersection, they are people from two worlds, they have never met or worked together.

It is estimated that there have been too many calls recently, and someone is playing a prank.

Because this is not the first time something like this has happened. In the middle of the night a few days ago, someone said that he wanted to invest several hundred million in him, but he had to call in tens of millions first.
