Chapter 91: Corrupt Officials and Traitors

"Hey, you said the actors nowadays are speechless!"

Xu Guangtou suddenly thought of something: "Didn't I help "The God of Medicine" invite an actress two days ago? Guess what they said, people said she only accepts movies with a box office of more than 1 billion yuan now!"

"…Who is so arrogant?"

Xiaobai asked curiously.

"...I won't talk about who it is. I just think there is something wrong with the current market. You say that actors don't read scripts or characters when taking on roles, but they actually have to do so because of the box office..."

"There is no way. Now we pay attention to box office appeal and IP! Isn't there any big data?"

"…IP? I'm not an IP adaptation of your movie, right?"

Ning Hao glanced at Xiaobai.

"Me? I'm not that smart. What I care about when doing movies is the core value of the work. As for whether it is a stunt movie or the hottest IP... I can't keep up with barefoot, and there are already very smart people doing it. Moreover, I don't know what I'm not familiar with. "Ghost Blows Out the Light" is also good, and many concepts are also very good and very popular. But I haven't seen it. If you ask me to film "Ghost Blows Out the Light", I don't even know what it is written!"

"Yes, why do you need to make a movie? What is its connection with your life? Is the things you express that make people feel... If it's just for business, then this is negative."

Xiaobai, who Xu Guangtou agrees very much.

"And the summer and National Day holidays have proved that relying on IP alone is useless!"

"You can't say that. When you meet a good director team, the power of IP can still be revealed."

Novice has different opinions. IP changes such things, so it must have its unique features. Otherwise, so much hot money would not have rushed to IP adaptation like a rush!

However, most of the IP adaptations are just under the guise of the original work, looking for a few young actors or traffic stars, and then attracting a few powerful players who are short of money to improve the level. An IP adaptation drama was born like this...

It’s a very watery industrial process. It’s okay to watch one or two of such works. If it’s all like this, the audience will naturally not buy it!

Also, when the production company chose to purchase IP, it focused on several categories such as Xianxia, ​​Palace Fighting, and Women's Strong, which caused "traffic congestion" and "frequent collisions".

I just chose these types, and I don’t have to worry about the audience getting fucked!

"Didn't you write "Three Gate" and "A City"? Are you interested in adapting it into a movie?"

"Three Gate" and "A City" are of course a big IP.

"It depends on the situation. I may not be able to shoot it. You think it took me half a year to write this thing. It took another half a year to shoot it. It also needs to be promoted when it is released. It took another whole year to spend it on it, which is too time-consuming!"

After thinking about it, Xiaobai added: "But I should only be able to film "Three Gate", after all, the meaning is different!"

"By the way, Liu Sihui will give it to me. There is an actress named Tang Xiaoyu in our company. She is quite suitable for such a role."

"OK!"

Since the director said it, it must be!

...

All three of them are directors, so the topics they talk about are naturally about film and television.

"…I think it's a bit difficult to achieve the 50 billion target this year!"

"The summer season is not good!"

"The market is maturing and the audience's aesthetic has improved. I am confident that there will definitely be many high-quality films in the second half of next year."

"Why is the second half of the year?"

“…Because many of the films produced now will be released in the first half of next year!”

“How do I feel that the scale of censorship is being relaxed?”

Ning Hao nodded: "It's true that according to the previous standards, "Operation Mekong" is impossible to release it!"

Speaking of review, he was a little disgusted.

"No Man's Land" has been banned for four years...

"Didn't it meant that the Ministry of Public Security specially approved it!"

"...It's mainly because it promotes the main theme, political correctness is the primary thing. Otherwise, no matter what special approval is, it will be useless!"

"Yes, so a good director must be raped!"

"Well, corrupt officials are traitorous, honest officials are even more traitorous!"

Xiaobai followed Ning Hao's words and naturally continued.

Very familiar!

“…Yeah, it’s very philosophical!”

"Yes, having faith alone is not enough to survive in the turbulent flow, and it still needs to be eye-catching."

"Corrupt officials must protect each other, and the administration and judicial plays in the hands of the people. Corrupt officials and evil lawyers also protect the market. They not only engage in bribery and eliminate evidence, but also make them sharp and unreasonable, and turn them into innocence. Of course, a clean official who is not traitorous is helpless against this group of people, and may even be framed and imprisoned. Therefore, if the clean official wants to beat the corrupt officials, he must be even more traitorous, but this traitor is not a "traitorous" traitor, but a traitor who has more abilities and a wit on the spot."

"…What’s wrong with you?"

Ning Hao and his two words to Xiaobai were chatting for a long time, and then noticed that Xiaobai seemed to be silent?

Xiaobai waved his hand and explained: "...It's okay, I thought of a story."

"What story?"

"A story about a small person punishing evil and eliminating evil, Brother Ning, when will the project be established in "The God of Medicine"?"

"…It will be March next year at the earliest!"

"Yeah, I get it..."

...

In the next time, several people talked about the casting of "The God of Medicine".

"Yi Wei told me that there is an actor named Wang Chuanjun, which is quite good."

Zhou Yiwei has a good relationship with Ning Hao and others, mainly through director Lu Yang.

Lu Yang is also a member of Bad Monkey Pictures.

In fact, every actor has his connections!

It’s not only the Beijing circle that is called a circle!

"Then let him try."

"I'm a little worried that the pastor would have to know English and be proficient in the Bible..."

"I know an old actor, Yang Xinming, who has superb acting skills!"

Xu Guangtou also spoke: "Wang Yanhui is not bad either."

“…The murderer in “The Scarlet Sun”?”

"right!"

"You can do whatever you want to know the other actors!"

It’s almost time to leave, and there is another question: “Brother Ning, do you have any expectations for the box office of this movie?”

“…If you don’t lose money, you’ll be a big seller!”

“The requirements are really low…”

However, this also indirectly proves that this group of people did not think about making money by pointing to "The God of Medicine"...

Farewell to the two of them, Xiaobai got into a taxi and sat on the sofa in the back row. Xiaobai fell into deep thought - it was really deep thought.

Of course, it was not something that I thought about for "I'm Not a God of Medicine". That thing can be filmed according to the director Wen's mode. He was thinking about the words he said unconsciously just now, "Corrupt officials and traitors, and honest officials should be even more traitorous."

"Nine-rank Sesame Official"!

Stephen Chow’s representative work!

Well, this movie is Wang Jing’s work…

Of course, there is no Stephen Chow in this time and space, so there is naturally no "Nine-rank Sesame Official".

In fact, Xiaobai has always planned to film Stephen Chow's works, but he has never found a suitable supporting role.
Chapter completed!
