Chapter 23 The Wandering Earth: Cyber Daji
Chapter 23 The Wandering Earth: Cyber Daji
It is common for fans to quarrel over their own stars.
Especially in the era of traffic stars, what matters is the fan economy, and what is needed is fierce fans.
Of course, traffic stars start with fans and end up with fans.
Lu Yun is well aware of how many stars have “died” at the hands of their fans.
Many times, others just want a star to fail, but fans really want their own star to "die".
So Lu Yun asked Yan Xinxin to take care of her fans from the beginning.
The route that the company set for him was "traffic + acting skills", but the new route that Lu Yun set for himself with the golden finger was not like this.
He doesn't need his fans to go out and fight with each other, nor does he need to cut leeks and drain fans' wallets. Instead, he just needs to make his fans behave better and maintain a good reputation among the public.
He knew that fans could probably support a box office of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, but definitely not billions.
After all, if the fans are really powerful, there will be no such thing as "flops" in the movies and TV series of those traffic stars.
So for the ranking of this list, Lu Yun asked Yan Xinxin to control the core fans. This girl did a very good job and is indeed a good hand at this.
They also analyzed it themselves. The fans of other stars who were not on the list were making a fuss, but the reason why the fans signed by Wu Fan were making a fuss was because the movie starring Wu Fan was going to be released during the Spring Festival.
It is the movie "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back" produced by Stephen Chow and directed by Xu Ke.
Wu Fan signed a contract for 2016 and released two movies. However, when "So Young" was released, the "Dating Scandal" broke out. Later, "Jade Dynasty" failed both at the box office and in terms of reputation. It can be said that it did not help him much.
Now we are counting on the Spring Festival release of "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back" to have a good start in 2017.
"...This isn't just a fan fight. I can see the PR company's troll army is pulling in some real strings. It looks like they think you stole their traffic over the summer, and now they want to take it back."
Yan Xinxin said excitedly, "How about this, Brother Lu? As long as you give the order, I will immediately lead the Lu family army to charge!"
"After six months of my training, the core fan group has become absolutely obedient... Ouch!"
Lu Yun took back the hand that was knocking on Yan Xinxin's head and said angrily: "You are still the Lu family army, you want to rebel, stay still."
Liu Chun also nodded: "It's true that we can't move around. Your brother Lu's personality is a 'scholar', so his fans must naturally be different from those of the spirited young man. This time we can make a comparison."
"The audience must be able to tell the difference between Wu Fan's reputation and Lu Yun's reputation at a glance," he looked at Yan Xinxin, "so you must hold those fans back and wait until 'Longing' is aired before letting them build momentum."
"Ok."
After pressing Yan Xinxin who was about to make a move, Liu Chun looked at Lu Yun again.
He now admires Lu Yun more and more. Lu Yun's judgment of box office is indeed better than his, because the box office performance of the Sino-foreign co-production blockbuster "The Great Wall" directed by Zhang Mouyi, which was just released, is also mediocre, and the reputation is not good.
So now he really believes in Lu Yun's judgment.
"I've already found out about 'Operation Red Sea' you asked me to inquire about, but there's no good news. After director Lin Chao's 'Operation Mekong', which was released in October and became a huge hit, this new film has been a hot topic for many people."
"The male lead is someone who is older and has good acting skills, and the second male lead has been directly booked by a big shot in the Hong Kong circle. After all, director Lin Chao is also from the Hong Kong circle."
"The rest are just the members of the Jiaolong Commando Team. It's an ensemble piece, there's no compelling story, and the pay is minimal, let alone a share of the box office revenue."
Lu Yun felt helpless after hearing this. He had originally wanted to make a fortune in the "Red Sea", but it turned out to be a "Red Sea" with no place to get involved.
"Forget it then," Lu Yun waved his hand. "What about 'The Wandering Earth'?"
"There's good news over there, but are you really going to act in a science fiction movie?"
Liu Chun scratched his head. "If you say military action blockbusters have shown signs of growth thanks to the example of Operation Mekong, then science fiction hasn't seen any of that. Even the famous The Three-Body Problem only died not long ago."
"There was talk of a delay mid-year, but the latest news indicates it's completely canceled. So finding actors for The Wandering Earth is incredibly difficult now, even harder than for Wolf Warrior 2. You're jumping right into this trap..."
While Liu Chun and Lu Yun were discussing The Wandering Earth, its director Guo Fan contacted Wu Jing through someone and personally visited him with the script.
The two talked about a lot of things, and Guo Fan invited Wu Jing to play an astronaut, the father of the protagonist.
"Brother Jing, we have a character here that's perfect for you. When we were designing it, we based it on you..."
Wu Jing didn't know what was going on, but after hearing what Guo Fan said, he was very interested and wanted to play this role.
However, thinking about the heavy burden on his shoulders, he knew that if "Wolf Warrior 2" failed, he would really lose everything, so he held back.
"Brother Guo, as you can see, I have a lot of things to deal with here. If things go wrong, I might end up begging on the streets. I really can't spare the time to film another movie."
Guo Fan's eyes darkened when he heard this: "Well... okay..."
Wu Jing didn't know what was going on, but after seeing Guo Fan's look, he felt guilty. So after thinking for a moment, he added, "Hasn't your male lead been decided yet? I have a recommendation. In the play, the male lead is the son of an astronaut. In real life, he studies aerospace. He has very good acting skills and is also very famous..."
Wu Jing was afraid that Guo Fan would not believe it, so he took him to see the shooting materials of "Wolf Warrior 2" and showed him Lu Yun's performance.
Guo Fan didn't expect Wu Jing to trust him so much, and he was even more surprised after seeing Lu Yun's performance and understanding the information, but there was only one problem.
"Most of the costs for this play will go into film production, so we can't find popular actors. From the beginning, we thought of looking for third-tier actors, hoping to pay them less..."
Wu Jing was curious. They offered little in the beginning, so not many people took the role.
"how many?"
"The leading male role, fifty...thousand." Guo Fan said, opening his palm.
"..."
Wu Jing made a tactical retreat.
Wow, he’s even more cruel than he was before. No wonder the male lead hasn’t been decided yet.
Fortunately, Rowoon’s situation is different from that of ordinary stars.
"Don't worry, Lu Yun doesn't even want 50,000. He's very brave and willing to share the hardships with the crew. What he asked me for was a share of the box office..."
Guo Fan was delighted when he heard this.
Is there such a good thing?
That Lu Yun is destined to be with me!
"Thank you, Brother Jing. I'll treat you to a meal after I'm done with you!"
Soon, Guo Fan rushed from Beijing to Shanghai with the script, and then went to Qimingxing Company.
As Lu Yun looked at Guo Fan who was talking in front of him, he finally understood why this man was called "Cyber Daji".
Lu Yun strongly suspected that Guo Fan's speaking skills were at level 5, and even the usually eloquent Liu Chun was stunned.
If charm could be upgraded, his charm would be at least level 5.
So Guo Fan's invitation was sincere, and Lu Yun had wanted to act for a long time, and the two sides quickly reached a cooperation intention.
If Guo Fan hadn't brought the contract with him, he would have signed the contract on the spot.
"Then wish us a happy cooperation?"
"Happy cooperation!"
