At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 440 "Certificate of Voting"

Every traverser will eventually become a shameless person!
At the beginning, there may be some psychological and moral burdens, but in the end, you will feel at ease and enjoy the convenience brought by memory...

Wen Chao Gong is Wen Chao Gong!

Everything that didn't show up, that he understands, will become his stuff!
Same goes for fusion memory...

Shen Xudong's memory is only limited to some things in the entertainment industry, but it's enough!
After all, he's already in the game.

After this year, he has become the hottest screenwriter!
Not to mention throwing money with sacks, it's almost the same...

Anyway, even if he writes a script casually now, there will definitely be investors who will give him money to do it...

Vanity Fair, don't believe in successful people, do you believe in a bad person?
Xingmei recruited Shen Xudong with a very clear purpose, to match Shen Xudong and Chen Kexin to cooperate, just for that "The Thorn Horse"...

……

Shen Xudong and Chen Xi first met and chatted about "The Plot"...

The original book of "Conspiracy" is very paranoid, mortals are humble, geniuses are noble...

The proper type of reflection…

It is to replace the revolutionaries with the thinking of normal people, and to be more straightforward, it means that they are all inhumane!

In fact, the reason why the revolutionary feelings of revolutionaries transcend human nature, and even be suspected of being anti-human, is simply because the things they defend have condensed the blood and tears of too many people, and there is no room for loss.

Without personal experience, there is no right to speak, just like the scenery drawn by the blind.

At this stage, there is a market for such reflection themes!

But it definitely won't work on TV.

After Shen Xudong's adaptation, the three stories progressed sequentially. The first two stories "Listening to the Wind" and "Looking at the Wind" both started with spy wars but ended with personal tragedies...

The blind A Bing, the protagonist of "Listening to the Wind", finally committed suicide because his wife was electrocuted by Lv;

Huang Yiyi, the protagonist of "Looking at the Wind", was exhausted and died at the hands of a shrew because of her pursuit of love.

The third section, "Catching the Wind", was screened after the first two films, which was particularly eye-catching.

Even the best performances in the first two films would be in vain without the third paragraph describing the struggle life of the revolutionaries in the 30s, because it only monotonously reshaped the revolutionaries into cold state machines, and carved their beliefs into The impermanence of human life, without explaining how the revolutionaries came, how the country came, and where did the belief come from...

It also does not explain why there are revolutionaries, why there is a country, and what belief is.

And these are the contents of the third paragraph.

It passed the review because the third part impressed many reviewers...

After the reform, reflections on our revolutionary stage are often focused on anti-human nature, depriving people of their will and freedom for the sake of revolution...

But... Faith itself is beyond human nature!

The hero itself has a part that destroys humanity...

Therefore, the teacher will say: the people's heroes are immortal!

But the first two paragraphs are indeed a bit of a disco on sensitive lines.

"It's good enough to let you film and allow it to air."

"...you expected that?"

"Well, Director Zheng should have expected it..."

Chen Xi didn't quite understand: "Since the subject matter is sensitive, why do you want to do it?"

Shen Xudong chuckled: "...I persuaded you!"

"I told him that he doesn't make spy war dramas, and none of them dare to try in China... The TV dramas at this stage have too few themes to choose from, either they focus on martial arts, or they have a bad family background... Beishi Center needs to make a show! Dare to be the first in the world !"

"...You really know how to praise!"

"When "Assassination" is broadcast, "Before Dawn" can enter the official preparation..."

"Have you finished writing the script?"

Shen Xudong nodded: "I also bought a novel called "Latent"..."

Chen Xi 'hmm' for a moment, did not continue, the two arrived at the hotel...

……

This year's Lunar New Year, Xingmei launched two movies "Sanxian Village: Beauty in the Underground Palace" and "If Love"...

Judging from the results, "Sanxian Village" earned more than 500 million yuan, and "If Love" did not lose money, but it did not meet expectations...

Chen Kexin is preparing to make a blockbuster film: "Theoretically speaking, the risk of a blockbuster film is the smallest in the current Chinese film market..."

"For a movie to be a blockbuster, in addition to the quality of the movie itself, if the production is large, many people will pay attention to it, and it will also have a greater impact on the marketing, promotion, theaters and audience expectations of the movie. When these are in place , It is very difficult for a movie not to make money!
"It might have a bad reputation, but a movie with a bad reputation ends up selling a lot of money..."

"I'm purely speaking from the standpoint of film business. In fact, the return of large-budget films is relatively stable!"

Chen Xi shook his head: "The problem now is that the overseas copyrights of ancient costume movies are not as easy to sell as before..."

"Because of "The Promise"?"

"That's right, before "The Promise", most Chinese-language costume blockbusters could sell off their copyrights, but now, they are all signed contracts... They don't want to gamble anymore!"

Qin Hong interjected: "I heard that the overseas copyright of "Golden Armor" cannot be bought out?"

Shen Xudong shook his head: ""Golden Armor" is mainly because "House of Flying Daggers" did not sell well, and Sony lost money...so, be very cautious this time!"

"The Promise is at a loss?"

"do not know…"

Chen Xi interjected: ""The Promise" was returned in North America, the distribution rights in Japan were only sold for 450 million US dollars, and the sales in Europe are currently 600 million US dollars...the cost has not yet been paid back, and the impact is indeed far-reaching. The North American copyright of "The Banquet" has not yet been settled. In the European region, only the United Kingdom has a transaction volume of US$100 million, and the transaction volume of the Japanese benzene market is only US$400 million..."

"Does that mean that the overseas market for period films no longer exists?"

"Depending on the situation,"

Chen Xi explained: "Jackie Chan's "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" sold more than 3000 million US dollars of overseas copyright..."

"There must be a big star involved!"

"What do you think Xu Dong?"

"...I generally don't make blockbuster films, I'm more good at medium investment works..."

""Glory of the Tang Dynasty" is a blockbuster movie!"

Shen Xudong shook his head: "That's because Jackie Chan joined, otherwise, this story wouldn't be too big!"

"Actually, the same is true for "The Assassin". If we cast Li Lianlian as Pang Qingyun, the cost would be at least [-] million...then it would definitely be a blockbuster."

"...I read your script, "The Stinger"... No, "Certificate of Fame", isn't it a bit too deep? Not commercial enough?"

"So, if you want to make a blockbuster movie, one is to invite Li Lianlian to join in, the other is to jointly produce it with China Film Group, and the third is to put it in the summer file...don't put it in the Lunar New Year file..."

"Certificate of Fame" itself is not suitable for making a big investment, its theme is quite dark, and the era does not allow individual heroes!
Therefore, the effect Chen Kexin produced: the color is gray and cold, the light and shadow flicker, there is no rich and gorgeous costume, and there is no pomp and ostentation.

It is in line with the movie itself, but...it does not meet the audience's expectations...

So cruel!

Chen Kexin nodded: "China Film Co-produced..."

"Yes, blockbuster films must attract China Film Group's investment, and China Film Group generally will not let the films it participates in lose money!"
