How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 484 Another year of Oscars
"If Li Lianlian can't do it, Anan, what do you think of Hua Zai?" Chenglong recommended another signing candidate to Zhang Nan.

When Zhang Nan heard the word Hua Tsai, he was stunned.

King Liu?
Although he had planned to use his own path in North America as bait to reap the profits of top artists in the mainland film and television industry.

But I really never thought about signing Liu Tianwang.

Firstly, Liu Tianwang has now opened up the mainland market and consolidated his position as a celebrity in the mainland.

Secondly, in the original time and space, Zhang Nan did not find that this person had any enthusiasm for breaking into Hollywood.

Thirdly, Liu Tianwang has already established his own film and television company. He is the boss himself and there is no need to change jobs.

"There must be no problem on my side. The key is whether Liu Tianwang is willing? He is such a model worker, and my commission here is not low!" Zhang Nan asked curiously.

Zhang Nan is definitely willing to sign Liu Tianwang.

Because this person has never had any bad news and is quite a model worker.

If you really sign it, let alone the [-] or [-] in the first few years, or the [-] when it stabilizes in the future, it will be a huge profit.

The most important thing is that Andy is currently a celebrity in the Chinese film and television industry.

Signing this player will be particularly beneficial to his future harvest.

After all, Liu Tianwang will be one of the few super-A-list celebrities in the mainland entertainment industry in the future.

"No one is born to be a model worker. They are all forced to do nothing. Hua Zai has been in the industry for so many years, and the entertainment industry in Hong Kong was so unreliable at the beginning. He owed a lot of favors, and now he is so busy that he can't rest. If there is a mountain to rely on, "Yes, he must be willing, and... who in Hollywood doesn't want to try it out?" Chenglong explained Liu Tianwang's willingness to sign the contract.

Zhang Nan nodded when he heard this and said: "We can talk, there is no problem on my side."

"Okay, I'll let Hua Zai come over when the time comes." Chenglong breathed a sigh of relief.

……

After exploring Chenglong's class and resting for a few days.

After recovering from fatigue, Zhang Nan ran directly from Longbow Film and Television City to the villa shared by Li Jiaxin and Xiao Jue in Xiangjiang.

And then...even more tired.

I can only say that the old saying is true. It is indeed difficult for two fists to defeat four hands, not to mention that he is still fighting two horses with one hand.
-
In early November.

God of Gamblers Zhou’s latest masterpiece [Confucius] was released simultaneously in Mainland China and Hong Kong.

Needless to say, the box office here in Xiangjiang is so sluggish that it is no longer possible to watch it.

And here in the mainland...

[Confucius]’s first-week box office performance was 3800 million yuan.

This result should be quite good for the February schedule in the Mainland. It can be called a blast.

But when it comes to [Confucius], a 1.5 million yuan investment project, it can be regarded as a kind of explosion, but in the opposite direction.

Although the film release rules in the Mainland are different from those in North America, the first week's box office is also a concrete manifestation of a film's box office potential.

The first-week box office is 3800 million yuan, and the final box office can be [-] million yuan, which is quite impressive.

But the cost of [Confucius] is 1.5 million yuan.

Explosive loss of more than 1 million!

This is the prediction of [Confucius] by professionals in the industry.

However, it was precisely because the box office of "Confucius" plummeted that Zhou Gambling God bowed his head and accepted Jiang Wen's offer of 500 million yuan in salary from the crew of "Let the Bullets Fly".

And at the same time [Confucius] was experiencing box office failure.

Hengdian Film and Television City, which has been suppressed by Changgong Film and Television City, announced that the group will make a big move into the film and television industry to complement its own film and television city industry chain.

It can be said that Hengdian Film and Television City Group is quite far-sighted and has foreseen the rise of the mainland film and television industry early on.

But... sometimes, you don't just have to come early to catch the early set, you also need to have hard skills.

It’s not that Hengdian World Studios Group is not strong enough.

It's just that in comparison, Hengdian World Studios Group is a little less interesting.

Because if nothing unexpected happens, Wanda will establish Wanda Pictures next year.

Boss Jia, who dreams of attracting attention from others, will also establish Happy Film and Television Group.

There will also be Happy Twist in the year after, and Alibaba, Bona, and Huanxi in 2014 and 2015, all of which will enter the mainland film and television industry.

Except for the lack of money making ability of a happy twist.

None of the others are good, they are all the existence that crushes the capital of Hengdian Studios Group.

……

end of June.

Zhang Nan ended her break back to the mainland and returned to North America again under the constant urging of the crew of "Harry Potter 7".

[Harry Potter 7] Inside the set.

Zhang Nan quickly finished his small part of the performance, and then walked to the side to rest, watching the three grown-up little ones waving wooden sticks around.

The scene looked quite joyful.

But when Zhang Nan was looking happy, director David Yates came to Zhang Nan and said with some envy:

"Zhang, I'm afraid you'll have to win another Best Actor statuette at this year's Oscars! [Avatar] has such a high box office, and you've done so well over the years, but you haven't won another award, so it's your turn."

"Avatar", which grossed US$29.25 million at the box office after being released in mainland China, now has a total global box office of US$[-] billion.

Of course.

This is basically the final box office of [Avatar].

Because at this time, "Avatar" is almost gradually declining in the global film market.

And David Yates's remarks are obviously copying the situation of "Avatar" to "Titanic".

Because the situations between the two are really similar.

They were all directed by James Cameron, and the box office was extremely high.

Even in terms of the style of the movie plot, "Avatar" is more stylish than "Titanic".

After all, the latter is just about falling in love, while the former involves more high-end topics such as ecological protection, colonial thoughts, etc.

"Win the prize?"

Zhang Nan glanced at the words and said, "I have no intention of going."

David Yates was stunned after hearing this answer.

Because in his opinion, this means that if you go, you can get a prize. If Zhang Nan doesn't go, he won't get the prize at all.

After all, no major award will award its award to someone who did not attend.

Zhang Nan naturally saw David Yates's astonishment and explained: "Have you not noticed that the Oscars in recent years have been going in the wrong direction?"

David Yates thought for a while after hearing this.

Then I did find that the Oscars in recent years seem to be particularly interested in movies that did not do well at the box office.

"But no matter how wrong it is, with the box office and subject matter of [Avatar], winning an award is not a problem!" David Yates said hesitantly.

"Winning an award is definitely not a problem, but don't even think about the grand prize. If you don't believe me, let's make a bet. [Avatar] won't even win a major award at the Oscars this year."
