At first, I just wanted to make money

Liu Yifei is really popular!

First-line actress.

Now there is no such thing as post-85s. When it comes to her, she is the only one, or tied with the four deniers and double ice...

Such a popular and good-looking young actor will naturally attract competition from various schools!
But now she is high-spirited, or she has the support of her godfather, and her targets are Zhang Ziyi and Wang Fei...

Release a Japanese album, want to be comparable to Wang Fei in music, accept Hollywood productions, and want to break into Hollywood...

It's a pity that the financial crisis has come, and the strength of the godfather has declined, so there is no way out!
However, she is now very popular, besides "Double J Project", there is also "Martial Arts Butterfly Lovers" which does not cooperate with Ma Chucheng...

All top resources!

It is understandable to look down on "Happy Death Day" produced at a small cost...

As for Shen Xudong's ability?

What kind of climate can a small fight make?
There is no way to show it in the country!

What?Oscar for Best Screenplay?
So what, Li An's play, she refused...

Most importantly, Mother Liu said, "Even if we cooperate, it is only limited to the film contract, and we will not consider transferring the agency contract to others."

Then cooperate with a wool?
The brokerage contract is not transferred, and then cooperate with the film?

You are not a child of the plane, so why are they supporting you?
……

In the private room, Shen Xudong received a grand welcome just after entering the door...

Huang Zhonglei, Zhang Guoli, Feng Xiaogang and Wang Jinghua all got up...

"Go home with honor!"

"Now we can say 'Let's lay flat on the Chinese film industry!'"

"No...it's just luck... Teachers and uncles, sit down first."

Shen Xudong hurriedly returned the gift with a smile, and after a few people were seated, Huang Zhonglei said: "...I heard that "Zhao Zilong" sold like crazy in Korea and Japan..."Juno" also has a global box office of 2.3 million US dollars?"

"When they invested in Korean and Japanese copyrights, they said they wanted it. No matter how well it sells, it has nothing to do with me. I don't even get a dime. The publisher basically made the money for "Juno"... "

"Issuing party?"

Shen Xudong explained: "First of all, the distribution fee of 15.00% of the North American box office is 2145 million U.S. dollars... Then the distribution fee and promotion fee paid in advance are almost 1400 million U.S. dollars...

"1400?"

"Public relations for film previews, warehousing and transportation of copies, capital recovery costs, hiring investigation companies, secretly checking theater box office, various promotional expenses, etc., all need money!"

Huang Zhonglei then asked: "What about the overseas box office?"

"Hollywood's ability to make fake accounts, even Wall Street can't find out the problem. Publishers have made false declarations, tax credits and other methods. Only unexpected, no one can't do it, especially the videotape and TV copyright of long-term revenue, There are more places to rig... so we just sold it to Fox for $4500 million... that's what I earned, but Juno cost $2700 million to make and had to pay the rest of the cast and crew The next reward..."

Summary: Not much to earn!
"Is it on the right track now?"

Shen Xudong nodded: "So the filming of the two films was started, and the combined cost is 6000 million US dollars..."

"You are so brave!"

Shen Xudong said with a bitter face: "...making film and television is like gambling. You can't do it as a business, because you must want to make a profit when doing business. There is no way to make a movie, because it is for the public...Whether the public likes it or not, who cares?" It's not good to say..."

Zhang Guoli hurriedly asked: "Then why do you dare to be so generous?"

"$6000 million seems like a lot, divided into two movies, one is only 3000 million, put it in Hollywood, 3000 million dollars is nothing...Any A-level production will start with 1 million...I don't have the money to make it bigger Production, can only make some small and medium-budget films..."

"It's not easy for you!"

"I can't help it. It's hard to get in touch with the theater chain. You can't stop production...Less say three or four movies a year..."

……

The complaining meeting lasted for half an hour. In one sentence: hard work and low return!
The food is ready, and a few people start eating...

While talking about the past.

Unknowingly, halfway through the dinner, everyone ate well and chatted happily. Feng Xiaogang glanced at Shen Xudong, and then said: "Back then, when I saw you for the first time, kid, I thought you were not the only thing in the pool. !"

Zhang Guoli held the stalk: "Oh? How do you say it?"

Shen Xudong also looked curious...

"The second time we met, we talked about "Party A and Party B 2", "Mobile Phone 2" and "A World Without Thieves", do you remember?"

"Well... remember..."

Feng Xiaogang continued: "We chatted a few words about actors, and then you proposed Gong Li, and I said 'Gong Li is out of reach', and then you picked her up by car... This is not something ordinary people can do !"

Shen Xudong explained: "At that time, I was cooperating with Teacher Gong Li on "National Witness" and "Manslaughter"...She always wanted to act in a good drama, but unfortunately she couldn't find a good script..."

Feng Xiaogang shook his head, and looked at Shen Xudong again: "Zhonglei arranged a whole team to contact Gong Li, and tried to sign her, but they failed... You just said a word, and she came here... Is this something that ordinary people can do?"

This is to think... is it true that Shen Xudong has an unusual relationship with Gong Li?
Maybe it was because Shen Xudong would be proud if he said that?
Gong Li eh...

It's a pity that although Shen Xudong likes art exchanges, he has never talked about art ideas openly. He smiled and said: "I talked with her and her agent, and analyzed her acting career... She is more willing to trust my judgment !"

"how to say?"

"It's just... Chinese actors, don't care if you go to Hollywood or not, and don't care how you are doing. Even if you become a top player, your career focus must still be in China... Because you are a Chinese actor, it is impossible for audiences in other countries to regard you as yourself. people!"

Wang Jinghua nodded: "That's right, Zhang Ziyi has returned to China to develop..."

Shen Xudong added: "Especially actors, even if there are film studios interested in you, they are interested in your popularity in China...Jackie Chan and Li Lian are exceptions, they entered Hollywood through their actions, they are rare talents in Hollywood..."

Hearing this, Feng Xiaogang was overjoyed: "So, you have the ability, these things, ordinary people can't see it!"

"No..." Shen Xudong hurriedly said: "Brother Jackie Chan returned to China to develop..."

Huang Zhonglei on the side suddenly interjected: "According to what you said, Jackie Chan and Li Lianhe will definitely make money by cooperating in a movie?"

"...You mean "The King of Kung Fu"... As long as the movie is made, it will definitely make money..."

As for earning more and earning less, it’s hard to say!

"I heard that Jackie Chan approached you and wanted you to join?"

Shen Xudong nodded: "Well...but I can't do it, because Li Lianlian and Jackie Chan have to be teammates in this movie...I really can't think of who can be the villain..."

"The King of Kung Fu" is too mediocre, wasting a good meal...

"It's fine if you can make money... Is Xudong interested in doing it together?"

"...I'll forget it. I'm going to be a director and make a movie when I come back this time..."

Huang Zhonglei immediately said: "Is it "Fame and Li Wan"?"

"Hmm... a small show..."

"You are not playing tricks. I saw the cast candidates, and they are all first-line big names..."
