How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 566: [囧囧] and [Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons] are finalized and scheduled to be released

end of July.

Produced and distributed by Guangxian Pictures, directed by Chen Jiashang and starring Deng Chao, Liu Yifei, Zheng Zhongji and Zhou Zhaolong, "Four Famous Catchers" took over the mess of "Wu-Tang: The Code of Heaven and Earth" and released it grandly.

The box office on the first day was 1752.3 million yuan, and the cumulative box office in the first week was 7804.4 million yuan, which ensures that with an investment of million yuan, it should be able to make back its money.

Then all kinds of capital began to show their talents.

Those who are capable enough to work for China Film Group, Shanghai Movie Group, or Chinese brothers are beginning to join the banner of these parties.

Some projects that had been delayed or eliminated because they were not promising have begun to regain their vitality in an environment where there are too many projects but too little meat.

[Beijing Meets Seattle] project was launched, [To Our Perishable Youth] project was launched, [Tianji-Fuchun Mountain Residence Map] project was launched, and [Fuchu Detective] project was launched.

Under such circumstances, even the Chinese began to negotiate with Mr. Xu, who stabbed them in the back, about the project of the second part of the [Detective Dee] series - [Detective Detective Dee: God of Dragon King].

Then they are a bit capable, but not as good as China Film Group, Magic City Film Group, or a group of Chinese brothers. Seeing that the scene in the mainland film and television industry is getting hotter and more prosperous, my heart is crossed and my eyes are crossed. Close it and come in directly.

then……

[Happy Camp: Happy Home] project was approved, [The 1.2st Proposal] project was approved, and [Tiny Times ] project was approved simultaneously.

After that, if I had less capital, I really had no way to invest in the film industry, so I had to focus on the word "visual" in the film and television industry.

Then the first season of The Voice of China officially debuted on the small screen.

Singers began to compete with movie stars in performance. Of course, not many people noticed this at first.

More movie stars are keenly aware that with the continuous growth of the mainland's economy over the years, the golden age of the mainland's film and television industry seems to be coming, and their good days are coming.

……

Mainland.

Longbow Film and Television City.

Old Luke came back after negotiating terms with Warner Pictures from North America.

"The process was intense, but the process was very smooth. Originally, I thought your fixed salary in [Voldemort 2] could be talked about 5 million, or at most 5.5 million U.S. dollars, which would be quite good. I didn't expect David Mo Li was really loud, saying that he was from North America and wasn't very good at math, so he put it all together and settled on a fixed salary of US$5.6 million, plus a % box office share and a % Four peripheral revenue shares.”

Old Luke gave Zhang Nan a rough summary of the status of the [Voldemort 2] project that was finally negotiated, and then he breathed out and said: "It would be great if future negotiations could be discussed like this."

Zhang Nan immediately laughed when he heard what Old Luke said.

"You want to change the heads of Hollywood giants! It's too cruel, just this one time will do it.

And even if you change it once, it won't last long. If I remember correctly, your brother-in-law Robert Watt should be a sure shot at replacing Bob Brett this time. With negotiations like this, you are trying to get your brother-in-law to take over. After that, will you come down right away? "Zhang Nan said truthfully.

Old Luke nodded when he heard this, and then handed the negotiated documents to Zhang Nan for review.

Zhang Nan scanned the content and found that there was nothing different from what Old Luke said, so he signed his name and the contract came into effect.

"I will go back to North America in the next two days and talk to the senior big guys on Wall Street through the people from Longbow Film and Television Fund." Zhang Nan handed the document to Old Luke again.

Old Luke nodded after taking it to express his understanding. He didn't even need Zhang Nan to explain clearly. He knew that this was a way to go through Wall Street to pay David Morris' performance fees and information fees reasonably and legally. This was This kind of thing is already a bad thing in North America. "By the way, let's discuss with Marvel Studios if we can adjust the guest appearance schedules of [Iron Man 3] and [Thor 2] to November or December. I just happened to be there at that time to attend [ At the premiere of Skyfall and The Hobbit, I also had guest roles," Zhang Nan added.

Old Luke nodded and said: "It should be no problem. Once the box office performance of [006] came out, I feel that Marvel Studios, which was still a little bit eager to jump in, is now more at peace with itself."

……

A few days later.

"The Four Famous Catchers" is still being released in the mainland film market with tepid popularity.

Then, the main creative members of two blockbusters that will once again stir up the popularity of the entire mainland film market came to Zhang Nan's villa after finishing filming.

On the guest sofa.

Although the two crews of "囧囧" and "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" are sitting on the same sofa, they seem to be somewhat different from each other.

Because the auras of Zhou Xingxing, Hu Ge, and Shu Qi in "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" are obviously much higher than the auras of the trio of Xu Zheng, Wang Baobao, and Huang Bo in "囧囧".

This is also normal.

After all, the current mainland comedy trio are just famous, and they don't have any particularly strong masterpieces to strengthen their confidence and transform them into the three giants in the mainland comedy industry.

As for [Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons], if nothing else, just one Zhou Xingxing can kill the current trio.

"I'm sorry, the baby is a little crying, and Jiaxin is a little tired with her big belly, so I kept you waiting for a long time." Zhang Nan came over, his posture was very kind.

But none of the six people in the two crews dared to accept Zhang Nan's polite words of apology.

"No, no, everyone was chatting just now. I didn't feel the passage of time. I feel like I just arrived." Huang Bo, who has worked in a factory, been a resident singer, and worked as a bit player, took over Zhang Nan's job with high emotional intelligence. Discourse.

Zhang Nan glanced at Huang Bo, who was quite an old minister, and didn't say anything. He just sat down in his seat and got straight to the point: "The project has been completed. You guys are here to talk to me, but you also want to Ask me how I can arrange the release date of the movie, right?"

Zhou Xingxing and Xu Zheng nodded subconsciously.

When Zhang Nan saw this, he did not give a direct answer, but first talked about the schedule.

"It's August now, and students have started school in September and October. There are also "The Lost Bullet" co-produced by Happy Pictures and Yinhuang, the Chinese "Tai Chi 1 from Scratch", and the glamorous "Tongque Terrace" 】.

Regardless of the quality of the movies, there are so many movies scheduled in a tepid schedule anyway, and it would be unreasonable to add more to them.

As for November, as far as I know, Feng Xiaogang's "1942" will choose this schedule, as well as Lu San's "The King's Feast". Oh, by the way, Longbow Films has also co-produced and financed it before. I have made a movie called "Chill", which is almost scheduled for this time.

It can be said that this time slot is also crowded.

Then there is only one December slot left this year.

Of course, this time slot has also been booked, and the film "Zodiac" is produced by eldest brother Chenglong himself and his old club Yinhuang.

For this film, I took the 1500 million U.S. dollars from Big Brother Chenglong, and looked at the situation and asked them to adjust the schedule of the project I invested in. Since we discussed it so far in advance, it shouldn't be a big problem.

But for the remaining movie "Big Shanghai", Bernard Films hired Fatty Wang to direct it, and also cast Zhou Gambling God, Huang Jiaozhu, Fatty Hong, and Wu Zhenyu to star. You have to rely on your own strength. "
