Chapter 75 Suzhou
At 10 o'clock in the morning, Lu Xiaoran came to the company.
After "Border Storm", it takes time to recover the money in Orange Image's account with less than one million yuan. Normally, it should be one month after the movie is released.
However, when Lu Xiaoran became famous in a battle, Zeng Guangxian still had no big problems if he wanted to attract investment.
“How much is the box office?”
“…It’s only been one night.”
"Yeah…"
I feel like I've written four chapters, why did I just have one night...
"You can help me shoot and contact the Shuping teacher. I want him to help me change the script!"
"What script? "Sword Rain"?"
"…Do you think I still dare to take pictures?"
Zeng Guangxian smiled: "We still have to consider the market..."
"Okay, I understand. The new script is called "Salvation of Mr. Wu". It was adapted from the kidnapping of Wu Ruofu. I have written the outline..."
"The kidnapping case is good. Keep working on criminal subjects. You can find a few big stars this time!"
Xiao Luzi doesn’t want to talk about this topic for the time being: “…Is the funds in “Nightclub” enough?”
"It's enough...it's a bit risky if we invest ourselves."
There are definitely risks when making movies!
Even if the investment in "Nightclub" is up to three million...
The most important thing is that Orange Image has no preparation for distribution, and no relevant experience...
"There is no distribution channel, so you can find an agent and give them the film and ask them to help release it."
"We have a fee of at least 15% of the agency fee, so it's hard for us to make money..."
"so what?"
"Or how many partners should I find?"
The shooting plan for "Night Shop" has been written...
The biggest advantage of this movie is that it is cheap. If you rent a supermarket, you can start shooting directly.
Therefore, the main part of spending money is the actors. Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, Lu Xiaoran, Tangtang, Cao Binkun, and the lowest pay is calculated. The lowest price of Lao Cao is all worth 80,000 yuan...
Lu Xiaoran is the most popular now, and he has the highest pay. In a movie, you don’t want to make him nod without 800,000!
Brother Bo and Xu Zheng’s pay is close to 300,000 yuan, plus Tangtang’s 200,000 yuan.
If the market price is based on the market price, the salary of these people will be more than 1.5 million yuan...
Xiao Luzi will definitely not ask for a pay, as long as "Night Store" is produced by Orange Image.
Now he is a little unwilling to find another producer.
After thinking about it, he said, "In this way, wait for me to handle the show at hand, and then we will bring everyone to discuss it together!"
Zeng Guangxian's eyes lit up: "You mean that actors do not charge for movies, and the pay for movies is included in the total cost?"
"This is what you said, not what I said!"
...
Today, the domestic film industry has basically reached a consensus: if a movie wants to have a high box office, it must have big stars. It is not enough to have big stars, and it must have big productions and large-scale publicity.
What about Zhou Runfa, Liu Dehua, Liang Chaowei, please invite everyone you can!
Special effects also cost money, use Vita, Industrial Light and Magic, and use it for him!
You have to understand: what do audiences watch by spending money to buy tickets to enter the theater?
Just look at the stars and the special effects, so that you can get the ticket price back.
The box office is guaranteed to exceed 100 million!
You said you don't make money?
Movies are art, isn’t they talking about money?
This logic cannot be miscalculated, but unfortunately it lacks the most important link: a good story.
"Night Banquet", "The Unrestrained", "The Ink Attack", and "The City Are Full of Big Boobs" have four consecutive blockbusters, with special effects and star lineups, which are luxurious, but they almost ruin the reputation of the big production.
On the contrary, a small-cost comedy like "Crazy Stone" has gained both reputation and box office success.
Ning Hao has been born in commercial films and has made a bloody journey, which is why he is highly respected.
The most inseparable thing in this industry is smart people. A bunch of people have discovered a 'rule': comedy + small cost + ugly actors = reputation and box office.
"The Big Movie" directed by Forrest Gump is created according to this model!
Yang Qing's "Nightclub" is also the same model, which is why Lu Xiaoran is optimistic about this drama. It is still very promising to control the cost and work harder when promoting it. It is still very promising to win a box office of 20 million!
Therefore, why should he be divided into business that he is unwilling to introduce more investors to make money?
...
The Golden Rooster Award was founded in 1981 and should be the 26th session. However, it merged with the Hundred Flower Award in 1992. This is the 16th session, but it was separated again in 2005, which made the media not know what name it is good to use...
Only report this way: The 16th China Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival (26th Golden Rooster Awards)…
This year's host city is Suzhou.
Many people came, including Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, Liang Chaowei, Hou Hsiao-hsien, Wang Jiawei, Ge You, etc., and Chen Kun, Li Bingbing, Yuan Quan, Xia Yu, and Liu Ye, a group of middle-aged actors, made the scene prosperous.
Among all the awards this year, the one that is least popular is that the Best Actress is definitely awarded to Liu Jialing!
As we all know, Liu Jialing was born in Suzhou and moved to Hong Kong at the age of fifteen. With her current status, she just took on a title with a very Chinese character: the daughter of Suzhou.
In order to congratulate Suzhou's daughter on her crown, Liang Chao drove back to Beijing from the crew of "Red Cliff" in Y County, Hebei for this prospective son-in-law. Unfortunately, he caught the heavy fog and delayed 7 hours at the airport. He was exhausted when he arrived in Suzhou.
This is the news published by the newspaper Suzhou Daily, which Lu Xiaoran saw in the hotel.
Li Dawei: "...Why are you not nervous at all?"
"ah?"
"You won't expect it?"
“…I got the best newcomer.”
"…you…you received the message?"
“I received the news a month ago!”
"It's not bad. You win the Best New Actor, I win the Best New Director... It's a pity that Xiao Jiao!"
Li Dawei looked at Jiao Junyan apologetically, and the latter smiled: "It's okay, I'm just a sophomore, so it's already great to be able to come and see it!"
Lu Xiaoran put down the newspaper and suddenly smiled: "Next year is more intense!"
“…How do you say it?”
"The Stone has signed up for the Hundred Flowers Award, and there will probably be a bunch of nominations..."
"What? "Stone"? "Crazy Stone"?"
"Yes!"
“Isn’t this a movie from June last year?”
It's totally messy. "Crazy Stone" will only be awarded next year?
"…Every time every two years, you care about him. If you have a prize, you can get it!"
That's right, all major awards of "Stone" have been applied for, such as Golden Rooster, Hundred Flowers, Golden Horse, Chinese Film Media Awards, College Film Festival…
I don’t know what the situation is, but the judges of the Golden Rooster Awards directly passed the "Stone" and probably felt that the level was not enough.
As for why it was not ranked last year's Hundred Flowers Award?
Who knows this horse-treading?
It was clearly the name registered within the registration date...
"Let's go, it's time for us to enter..."
