After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 172 A Real Feast

"Mingyang! Brother Li! You can't keep fooling me. The movie and TV series we promised you are gone. I told you to shoot them all by yourself..."

At this point, everyone else laughed.

At this time, Qiao Shan came with a pot of red date soup, "Come on, red date soup, may the coming year be prosperous, another year."

After saying that, he served a bowl to Li Mingyang first.

Li Mingyang took a sip of the red date soup and asked, "Qiaozi, is it hard to work in the logistics department of the company?"

Qiao Shan immediately sighed, "It must be hard!"

Having followed Li Mingyang for so long, Qiao Shan dared not be modest and say that it was not hard, otherwise he would really continue to do logistics.

"Do you want to go to Guangguang?" Li Mingyang asked again.

"Guangzhou is not our company. I would rather stay in the company than go to Guangzhou."

Qiao Shan felt very unlucky. If he hadn't become Zhao Dashan's disciple, he wouldn't have ended up like this!

Not to mention that he is better than Wu Zhikui, but he is at least at the same level as Dapeng.

"Has your master contacted you recently?"

Qiao Shan nodded and said, "Yes, he did. He seems to want to talk to you... I don't think there is anything to talk about."

In the 09 Lunar New Year holiday, Zhang Yimou came with his epic bad movie Three Shots, which gave people all over the country a big shock.

After the Olympics, the name of the national teacher became famous throughout China.

Many people go to the cinema to watch Zhang Yimou's movies with great expectations, but the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

The film was released not long ago, and before the flowers and applause arrived, it was met with a barrage of criticism.

After countless intellectuals had abused it.

Han Han, the top blogger, 'stepped forward' and directly criticized: This movie is just a pile of sketches together. It is actually a big piece. It is not a movie at all. It is made for small and medium-sized counties and for Errenzhuan theaters.

Faced with so many intellectuals and their sarcastic remarks.

The national master said in an interview: I have gotten used to it. Starting from the movie "Red Sorghum", there have been a lot of controversy for every movie I have made so far. Because it is the Lunar New Year period, I changed the style and tried a comedy, so the controversy was very intense. I think this is normal. It is because of everyone's concern and enthusiasm for Chinese films that there will be such controversy.

With just a few words, he linked his film with domestic films.

Feng Kuazi is extremely arrogant and Lao Mouzi is extremely shameless.

This three-shot show, which brings together a large army of comedians from Northeast China, has a strong flavor of Errenzhuan, is crudely made, the screenwriter has no brains, and the actors' acting is exaggerated and superficial. It feels like a farce.

The color aesthetics, which is what Zhang Yimou is best at, is one of the biggest flaws of this movie.

Three Shots, which was criticized by the intellectual elite as worthless, was sold out after its release, and it earned over 100 million yuan in four days.

Faced with the rising box office, Zhang Yimou claimed that this had been anticipated.

He said: Art has no hierarchy. What is vulgar? What is elegant? In fact, there is no need to argue. They are all art. Going back 200 years, we were all farmers. Our ancestors were farmers. We are still an agricultural society today. What we call foreign things is that we have been exposed to them for more than 30 years since the reform and opening up. I think those so-called foreign ideas are not necessarily grown in us. I think that things like Errenzhuan and the customs of many countries and regions are actually things that grow in our soil. We should not underestimate them. We should not think that these performance elements lose their identity when they are on the big screen. This is actually wrong.

The national teacher was suppressed by the Beijing circle and dared not speak loudly, but he was very eloquent.

With just a few words, it has risen to the level of a nation.

What is national is also global!

Then the national master sat back and watched the box office reach new highs day by day amid the criticism, and broke 14 million after 2 days.

The market determines everything. Not all good movies have good box office. It is not uncommon for bad movies to have high box office.

Box office is the bottom line. Producer Zhang Weiping predicts that the box office of "Three Shots Surprise" can reach 4 million yuan.

Just when the national master, producer and a group of actors were happily waiting for the box office to break 400 million.

The box office began to plummet, and finally stopped at more than 260 million.

Not to mention 400 million, it hasn’t even reached 300 million.

After this incident, Zhang Yimou had nothing to do and continued to happily make his movies. Later, he made another comedy.

With an investment of over one billion yuan, a group of comedians and popular young actors were gathered in a large yard to create a box office miracle, Half Box Green, which beat The Wandering Earth 2 during the Spring Festival. It was really eye-opening.

Lao Mouzi stood up and should have boasted a lot. That was Little Big Balls 2! The pinnacle of domestic science fiction!
Then Zhang Yimou and all the main creators shut up.

Three shots. Lao Mouzi is thick-skinned and it’s okay, but Zhao Dashan has lost all his face.

The dream of leading Xiaomen into the film industry was shattered.

Zhao Dashan has always wanted to break into the film industry, but as a crosstalk actor he has the aura of a great actor, so he can't make it.

Just like Lao Guo, he failed many times in his attempt to enter the film industry and became discouraged. Unexpectedly, his apprentice Xiao Yueyue broke into the film industry.

Li Mingyang asked Qiao Shan to call Zhao Dashan. After some greetings, Li Mingyang and Zhao Dashan started chatting.

After chatting for a while, Li Mingyang discovered that Zhao Dashan still wanted to try the film industry again.

Lao Mouzi is not good at this, he wants to work with young people.

Li Mingyang laughed in his heart at this, but did not refuse directly.

From now on it’s all friendship.

Of course, this friendship cannot be too deep, as he still has a big disaster to face.

……

After celebrating the New Year at the company, at noon the next day, Wu Zhikui took Dapeng, Qiao Shan and others to the Zhoushan Islands for a field survey to determine the filming location for Far Cry.

Li Mingyang was in the villa, continuing to conceive the script of Your Name and some other details.

When the script was almost ready, Li Mingyang was lying on the sofa, thinking about where to shoot "Your Name".

Wang Changtian called him.

"I have already taken care of your problem. Huayi can't get away this time. It all depends on your own efforts from now on."

Li Mingyang asked worriedly, "How did you do it?"

"I promise Zuoshandiao that Guangguang will never build a film and television town, and will never get involved in real estate... Of course, other film and television companies must also make the same promise. Guangguang alone is not enough."

"Can they agree?"

"Our circle is not that simple. Just wait and see the news."

Wang Changtian smiled and said, "The opportunity has been prepared for you. Come on! I'm going all out."

"Don't worry, I've been waiting for this day for a long time."

"Oh, by the way, your spy, both Perfect World and Huace want to adapt the rights and make it into a TV series, will you sell it to them?"

“It’s not easy to shoot…”

"Eat rotten money, what's so good about it? Who are you going to sell it to?"

"Whoever pays more will be sold."

"Then let's go with Huace. Actually, I don't want to sell it to Huace. Huace is so fast and is already preparing for a listing..."

"Boss Zhao is indeed powerful, but she is conservative...Manager Lian is not only powerful, but also crazy. We should sell it to Huace." Li Mingyang said with a smile.

"Too……"

After finishing the call, Li Mingyang washed his face, sat on the sofa in the living room, stared at the dark TV for more than ten seconds, and suddenly his fingers made a crackling sound.

There are priorities.

He had said long ago that he would let them have a good new year!
The most important thing in life is to keep your word.

The collapse of Tudou and the breakthrough of the Internet are just appetizers.

Locking Huayi into the film industry is just improvisation.

The real feast is about to be served.
