Chapter 101 "Alien" (3/3)

In 2006, the first TV series "Struggle" starring Lu Xiaoran has not been aired yet. At that time, Lu Zi was just a little promising actor.

Then I met Li Ming, who gave him the opportunity to direct the first movie "Border Storm"...

Of course, Li Ming wanted to win over Ning Hao, but under Lu Xiaoran's memory filter, he valued Lu Xiaoran's talent!

5 million was not a small amount at that time. You should know that "Crazy Stone" only spent 3 million!

Relying on this 5 million, Xiao Luzi fired the first shot of entrepreneurship, and then he was out of control. In twelve years, he became the number one person in the Chinese-language film industry in mainland China - why is it the mainland? Because there are always people on the Internet to suppress him. After all, Li An has won two Oscars!

The last time I dealt with Xiao Ma, Li Ming passed away four years ago. Lu Xiaoran took over the Xishan Club and wanted to guarantee the release of "Taiping Wheel", but was rejected...

Then there is the news that "Taiping Wheel" was released and Xiao Ma lost hundreds of millions of dollars.

"Why did it go bankrupt?"

"A lot of things, I guess you won't be interested!"

This is a typical case of a family-style enterprise. The founder suddenly passed away. The inheritance and governance of a family-owned enterprise is a big problem. The development of government and business are unclear, shareholding holdings, family civil strife, chairman change of people, senior executives resign, and investment institutions are not dealing with the rights protection of their investment institutions.

The most deadly thing is radical investment agreements, where entrepreneurial companies introduce investment...

The bet failed, bankruptcy liquidation, Li Li and Li Ping auctioned 115 million yuan in stocks - this is 69% of the shares!

At that time, Huayi proposed to acquire Xiaoma for 5.4 billion yuan. After Li Ming's death, Chinese Culture proposed to take over Xiaoma, and the other shareholders left the market with a valuation of 3.6 billion yuan. However, shareholders such as Jianyin Culture offered a psychological price of 4.2 billion yuan. The shareholders had their own thoughts and did not accept the new bid from Chinese Culture in the end.

Other executives have also introduced that Huashu Media acquired Xiaoma and offered a valuation of 3 billion yuan. Some industrial funds in Hebei and Hubei have also talked about investment, but they were not successful in the end. The reason for the failure of investment is that on the one hand, Xiaoma's shareholders are unwilling to compromise on valuation, and on the other hand, the company's equity structure is chaotic and the decision-makers are not unified, which also discourages investors.

"Oh... how can you always go the way in the movie industry? Hong Kong's Jiahe, New Art City, United States, MGM, and Lei Dinghua have all disappeared into the long river of history. The new line, which was once famous for its "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, has now been acquired by Warner!"

Lu Xiaoran sighed: "Maybe Orange Industry will go bankrupt one day!"

"Don't say such disheartening words..."

Lu Xiaoran suddenly remembered something: "Sister Zhong, Xiaoma was acquired, so who did I get the copyright of the previous movie?"

"…Don't worry, no one dares to remake your movie without your consent!"

"Why don't we buy it?"

Zhong Lifang: "If you want to buy it, it will be more than 115 million!"

That's true...

...

Lu Xiaoran keenly felt that the word "heavy industry" was repeatedly mentioned!

What is "Die Renjie: The Four Heavenly Kings", a new example of domestic heavy industry movies, including "Three Lives Three Worlds" and "The Legend of the Mermaid Pearl" this year's Spring Festival period, and the main keywords that were promoted during the promotion of "Monster Hunt 2" include the three words "Heavy Industry"...

Can heavy industry ensure that movies are sold?

How is that possible?

The industrialization of movies quickly filled the technical shortcomings and provided the film with the opportunity to overtake. However, movies are not a single commodity after all, and at a deeper level, movies are still an art...

Ultimately, telling a good story is the most fundamental thing.

These people were adapted from IP, and then they were heavy industry movies...

Can't you be a little in awe of the movie?

Movies were originally words with rich elements, but when they were put on the word "heavy industry", they were limited to a very narrow semantic and became vulnerable.

This widespread dissemination and gradually popularization of popular language will gradually mislead the audience's understanding of movies. People's understanding of movies will become quite vague, and it is becoming increasingly unclear what exactly should be paid attention to when watching a movie?

Over-promotion or consumption of "heavy industry movies" will naturally occupy the living space of other types of movies. The entire market development is abnormal, and half of the seedlings in the same soil drown and half die, causing strange phenomena such that they cannot maintain their harvest even if they drought and flood.

And heavy industry films basically indicate high investment…

According to Lu Xiaoran's benchmark, if there is no 400 million yuan for special effects, would you be embarrassed to call yourself a heavy industry movie?

In fact, the most popular movies on the market will always be just good movies, and they will never be different because of whether they are heavy or light or handmade...

...

In the tavern, Ning Hao and Huang Bo.

"Crazy Stone" back then was the most awesome entrepreneurial team of Chinese films in two thousand years!

Unfortunately, Xu bald head flew solo, and Liu Tao has not contacted this group of people since 18 years...

Lu Xiaoran read "Crazy Alien" and frowned: "Your script is a bit too much..."

“Not mainstream?”

"right!"

This term is appropriate to describe "Crazy Alien"!

Ning Hao sighed: "What I want to show is the outdated people, the eliminated people, and the thrown away by the times."

"…Okay, you can take a photo!"

After saying so, what else can Lu Xiaoran say?

Ning Hao has been busy working on the "Moon" series in recent years and has helped Orange to tinker with another series.

He has his own aesthetic and wants to make an absurd comedy, but Lu Xiaoran will still support it!

In fact, the core of the three "Crazy" is all "unintentional" and all the little characters accidentally got into big things. "Stone" dropped the stone and jade, "Racing" dropped the ashes and drugs, and "Alien" dropped the monkey and aliens.

“When will it take a photo?”

"Middle of the year...I'm going to use Lao Huang + Shen Teng!"

"I have no objection...when will I get on?"

“…Next summer time.”

"Yes, you tell the producer to determine the release time and they can arrange the promotion..."

"Know…"

The matter of "Alien" came to an end, and Huang Bo suddenly said: "Old Lu, my "A Good Show" is being filmed!"

“…”A Good Show”?”

"Just "Rhapsody" I told you before!"

Only then did Lu Xiaoran realize: "Are you going to be a director?"

"…Yes, I've been holding it in for so many years, I still want to try it myself!"

"...Yes, come on, let's congratulate Lao Huang in advance... No, it should be called Director Huang!"

"Okay, OK," Huang Bo waved his hand and said, "Do you still remember what you said before?"

Lu Xiaoran thought about it seriously and finally remembered it. About five hundred chapters ago, he promised Huang Bo that if he became a director one day, Lu Xiaoran would play a role for free!

So, he said directly: "No problem, you need it, I will show up immediately, tell me, how many scenes?"
Chapter completed!
