Chapter 52 Angry (2/5)

Zhang Junsheng's views can only represent himself. Brother Chen Kai has been tempered for two years, so how could he overturn his plan just because an irrelevant person?

After the premiere of Yanjing, the next one is the premiere of Songjiang, Lin'an, Wuhan and Shudu, which is huge in scale!

Unfortunately, the box office on the first day was mediocre, with less than 10 million. Not to mention that compared with "Ip Man", even "The Promise" cannot be compared...

"The Promise" that year created a box office of 11 million yuan in six hours!

The so-called art films and commercial films actually have no clear boundaries. Only the amount of investment is the hard indicator of the film.

The investment is big and boring, and it makes no sense to exaggerate yourself as an art film.

There are no shortage of good art films, and they can definitely recover their investment.

Even if the viewing is not strong, there is still a chance for release in Europe and the United States. For example, the marriage of the good man Tuya from the Three Gorges and the works of Hou Hsiao-hsien, Cai Ming-liang and Wong Kar-wai.

"Mei Lanfang" has a considerable investment, and there are also famous movie stars like Zhang Ziyi, but they can't sell a copy or get a small prize.

In fact, looking at the award-winning road of "Mei Lanfang", you will know that this movie will definitely be out of the blue!

The shortlisted for Berlin is a quota for China Film Public Relations, and it was temporarily added. Later, he went to participate in an independent film festival like Seattle, USA. He did not even enter the top ten and went to several unparalleled film festivals such as Brazil and Belgium. He went to collect awards under the guise of Chinese Olympic bidding, but he still did not win a single award.

Zhang Ziyi's pay was not very high, and 15 million yuan was considered a friendly price - she was in the United States, and her pay was $5 million!

Due to the hopeless overseas, it is said that the final payment has not been paid...

...

On the 6th, in Yuehua Screening Hall, a small screening meeting was held within the company, and many theater managers were invited...

"It's so amazing. I didn't spend a penny, so I filmed a drama. The key is that it's quite good!"

Gao Jun from the New Film League gave a high evaluation after watching "If You Are the One 2".

They are all in the circle. Of course, they know that the advertising revenue of "If You Are the One 2" has reached 60 million, but the shooting cost has not reached 40 million...

Many times, the investment in domestic movies is obviously very high, but the quality of shooting is very low and extremely rough. There are only two situations: one is money laundering, and the other is that the budget is damaged.

Yuehua has never had this situation, except because of the producers, the producers are all their own people. The most important thing is that the filmmakers they invited are basically regular teams in the mainland!

If the Hong Kong team is invited, it will be normal for the budget to be hacked!

"Confucius" alone costs 13 million!

"Martial Arts" has an investment of up to 100 million yuan. In fact, there are no big scenes and no places to spend money. How could the cost be so high?

The crew costs thousands of dollars a straw hat...

Many mainland investors know nothing about movies and have an inexplicable favor for Xiangjiang. They do not consider the theme of the movie or whether the stars have appeal. Often, when they see that they are stars in Xiangjiang, the Xiangjiang team will spend money. Such investors deserve it!

Of course, although the Xiangjiang team is cheating on money, they are mostly serious about shooting, and the quality of the movie is generally not particularly bad.

In contrast, some mainland directors not only cheated money, but were not in the movie yet. After getting the investment, the movie was not started, so they bought themselves a car and a house. One bad movie was created like this.

Zhang Junsheng smiled and shook hands: "Although we didn't spend money, Director Ye is a honest person. He really made a movie, and he didn't get a penny of the director's fee!"

"...You think I don't know? He signed the share!"

"Yes, I'll have to ask Manager Gao to schedule more films at that time. Otherwise, Director Ye will work hard for more than half a year and will not even receive the director fee..."

"Don't worry, I'm very optimistic about this movie "If You Are the One 2". The New Year's Eve, we just lack such a movie that makes people smile!"

Wu Hehu from Songjiang and Zhao Jun from Yangcheng were all invited guests...

The North Gao Army, the South Zhao Army, the Songjiang Wu Hehu, and the three heroes of the cinema line!

Gao Jun’s New Film League is the largest film distribution company in Yanjing, occupying 60% of the Yanjing Cinema and market;

Wu Hehu is the deputy general manager of Songjiang Lianhe Cinemas, and accounts for 60% of the market share of Songjiang Cinemas and the market;

Zhao Jun is the top leader of the Guangdong East Film Company, and he manages two theaters, accounting for more than 50% of the theaters and market share in the eastern Guangdong Province;

It can be said that these three people control more than half of the mainland theater chains!

Of course you have to hold it...

After seeing off the three, Zhang Junsheng's face suddenly changed: "Damn, why is there Shu Qi in "If You Are the One"? What about Li Yuanyuan who promised to be a promise?"

"There is no way. Feile and Bulgari jointly sponsored 28 million yuan. After all, they have to repay each other. Shu Qi is the spokesperson for these two brands..."

Zhao Yijun explained with a wry smile...

Ye Jing asked back: "…Junsheng, do you seem to be very prejudiced against Hong Kong and Taiwan actors?"

"Previous? Do I have it?"

Zhang Junsheng looked puzzled...

"You have!"

He explained casually: "…I have found Yuan Hua in "A Chinese Ghost Story"!"

"What happened? In "Crazy Stone", Mike's character is a Hong Konger, you actually used Chen Chao!"

"…He's cheap!"

At that time, I wanted to find Yu Wen-chan or Gu Tian-chan to make a guest appearance, but unfortunately I only asked for HK$2 million...

2 million?

Why don't you say 20 million?

"Where is the Taiwanese actor? The above asked us to strengthen cross-strait cooperation..."

"Then you can't just give them such an important role as the second female lead!" After pausing, Zhang Junsheng added: "In the future, in our movies and TV series, try our best to be a mainland actor, Hong Kong and Taiwan actors if they want to participate in the show, you can correct their accent first!"

"You're too embarrassed!"

"In a dilemma? The accent is part of the line skills. When watching American movies and TV, there are a large number of actors from the UK, Australia and other places. They all have their own accents in their lives, but when acting, they speak fluent American English without any traces of accent. This is a professional. An actor who is not even qualified for the most basic professional qualities, why do you want them?"

"The same goes for Liu Dehua?"

"Everyone is the same! No, Liu Dehua's accent is passing!"

I couldn't help but squirt, "I can't understand Shu Qi's accent without subtitles. Can I be more professional?"

Why should I give them good resources?

Uncle Liu, who was over 30 years old, had mediocre acting skills in Hong Kong and was just an unknown fourth-tier actor in TVB. When he arrived in the mainland, he was immediately in a state of water. With his professional dubbing standard Mandarin, he could quickly become a popular candidate for the male lead of ancient costumes and modern idol dramas!

"The Beauty Without Tears", "Sunny Day in the Middle Summer", and "Thousand Mountains and Snows", have taken on one after another. After getting married, there are also "The Secret of Wife", "The Thousand Golden Female Thieves", and "The Lonely Empty Courtyard and Spring in the Spring". The partners are all the most popular young actresses in the mainland.

Why?

Just rely on a Hong Kong household registration?
