Chapter 39 Daily (3/5)
It's strange to say that a few years ago, everyone was talking about who entered Hollywood...
Now, on the other hand, everyone is talking about the domestic market.
The reason is very simple. The domestic market is enough for everyone to eat, so there is no need to focus on the overseas market...
The most important Chinese market's price-to-earnings ratio is far higher than the global average. After Bona went public in the United States, its market value has remained stable at around US$1 billion. Lao Yu was so angry that he simply delisted from Nasdaq!
Now is the market downturn...
But no matter how low the market is, Huayi's market value is more than 20 billion, far exceeding Bona...
Therefore, Bona's return to A-shares is a very correct choice.
Unfortunately, the time has passed - in more than two years of Bona Film's queue, the film and television industry bubble burst and film and television regulatory policies have become stricter.
Look at the past few years, listed film and television companies were in groups.
In recent years, the true form has been revealed: the "first media stock" of the Imprint Media, one of the earliest film and television companies in China to establish cooperative relationships with Hollywood studios, has introduced "Iron Man 3" and "Ring Messenger"), focusing on hype concepts: joining the Russell brothers to create "Captain China", and then was denied by Russell with emoticons... Last year, brokers published 4 research reports in a row that were optimistic about Yinji Media, valued it with 52.9 billion yuan...
This year, the market value evaporated by 30 billion!
This Yinji Media's operation is a bit stingy, and Lao Lu can't understand it anyway...
Those who are interested can take a look at "A beautiful overseas returnees join forces with a rich man to cut leeks, cash out 4.4 billion yuan and call him sick and return to the United States"
Probably that's it.
After all, not every company entrepreneur looks like Lao Lu, with the heart of the world!
Many are just to cut leeks!
...
Lu Xiaoran’s biggest advantage is that he never floats around!
It’s a bit like not being happy with things or being sad with oneself.
The movie sells well, happy, but it doesn't mean anything, "I'm very alone now," the movie sells poorly...
That doesn't exist either!
In fact, the most essential reason why domestic films can develop rapidly in the past two years: the trend!
Without the country to relax and promote the entertainment sector, will the entertainment sector usher in such a strong development?
Don't take yourself seriously!
With you or not, Chinese movies will usher in a wave of storms.
Of course, this is his own opinion. Others in the industry don’t think so. Lu Xiaoran is a recognized box office harvester. As long as he is on his film, you will become famous in one fell swoop!
Also, he is also a recognized fast gunner - two movies are released every year, and they are unstoppable.
Look, Lu Xiaoran has only been resting for half a month, and a lot of people have already inquired about his next project.
"The Knife Out" has been released on Douban information...
However, the list of actors has not been announced yet, and many people are inquiring about this drama.
It was learned that the protagonist is Daniel Craig and Chris Evans.
Suspense blockbuster!
And the heroine is not decided!
Everyone aimed at the heroine.
Lu Xiaoran is very good at portraying actresses!
Most importantly, this is Lu Xiaoran's first English film - Warner, Orange, Global, jointly invested and produced.
Global joined later...
Including Pang Bing and Shou Bing, they all tried to find out the relevant information about "The Knife Out" through Sugar Production.
Of course, Tangtang made these people give up on the grounds that she was not very clear. It was obvious that even if she wanted to find Chinese actresses, she would give priority to casting roles from the Orange Department and Tang Xiao Culture, and would not consider those big flowers!
As more and more people asked about "The Knife Out", Tangtang became interested and asked her husband: "What kind of story is "The Knife Out"?"
Lu Xiaoran casually replied: "A suspense film..."
"Of course I know suspense movies!"
Last year, when "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles" was released, Lu Xiaoran posted on Weibo to criticize Uncle San, and told me that the suspense theme could not be made into a blockbuster. He said, "The suspense blockbuster "The Knife Out of the Sheath" will be launched next year!"
"Benge reasoning, Agatha Christie style!"
In the classical style, the detective convened a general meeting to end with an announcement of the truth, the relatively independent environment and the "country villa-style" plot pattern of limited suspects, the Blizzard Villa, narrative tricks and multiple reversals and other familiar elements in the mystery suspense drama, all started from the hands of Agatha.
In addition to "The Murder of the Orient Express", "The Madness on the Nile", "No One Survived", "The Witness of the Prosecution", there are also "Detective Poirot" remakes by Hercule Poirot, the ever-lasting stage play "The Mouse Trap" and so on.
Lu Xiaoran loves everything, and he knows the works of John Dixon Carr, Van Dain, Elery Quinn, Edogawa Ranbu and Agatha Christie very well.
So, after telling this story, he immediately became interested!
In a word, Keigo Higashino is not a writer of the Benge school, but a member of the social school of reasoning...
"I heard Yifei said, you have already made arrangements for the heroine?"
"Yes, a Latino girl named Anna de Armas, the actress recommended by Caa, Wan Ziren said she is very good!"
As for whether Wen Ziren has a behind-the-scenes deal with her, Lu Xiaoran is too lazy to care about these things. As long as Wen Ziren is not caught and spit, Lao Lu will not care about him...
"There are no roles suitable for Asians?"
Lu Xiaoran: "Of course there is, Yan Bingyan plays the third female lead!"
"Sister Bingyan can only play the third female lead?"
"…This is a suspense film with political metaphors. Anyway, you will know after watching it."
...
It's so troublesome, even Zhang Ziyi called him!
Ask about "The Knife Out"...
Lu Xiaoran originally thought of staying until August, watching "Wolf Warrior 2" take off, then pretend to be a few pussy, hide his achievements and fame, and then go to the United States to shoot "The Knife Out of the Sheath"...
He couldn't stand it after just one month!
Just a movie, as for all kinds of encounters:
When I went to the riding club, I could actually "meet" Pang Bing. The latter came over with excitement, first complimented, and then pretended to ask about "The Knife Out" unintentionally;
Attending the symposium, Zhang Ziyi also asked him if "The Knife Out" needs an actor, she can recommend it...
Want your recommendation?
A famous actor under Tang Xiao Culture forty episodes!
Even Kim Joo asked him whether he wanted an actor through Yu Dong...
I used to film, but I didn’t see them so excited!
Chen Zhixi is not surprised: "The Knife Out is your first drama in Hollywood, and many people want to use your hand to invade Hollywood."
"…The domestic market is not enough for them to make money? I haven't seen them as enthusiastic in my previous dramas!"
"The previous drama was also very enthusiastic... "The Knife Out" invested even more..."
That's the plot of $65 million, converted to RMB 460 million, which is a medium-investment drama...
Lu Xiaoran had a question: "Are they not afraid of my failure?"
"Have you missed your hand?"
"It's hard to say something like movies!"
"It's better if you fail, you owe them favors!"
There is also this statement...
Lu Xiaoran was speechless.
"When will you leave?"
Chapter completed!
