Chapter 2 Small Gathering (1/3)
It was a very secretive private dish. Lu Xiaoran got out of the car and pushed the door open and went in.
The private room is large and luxuriously decorated. It is steaming inside, with a scent of vegetables and smoke.
There are many people.
When she noticed Lu Xiaoran who pushed the door in, Huang Bo was the first to stand up: "Oh, isn't this our happy son!"
Ning Hao: "I hugged two more at once!"
Lu Xiaoran smiled and said, "I'm called winning two yuan in a row!"
The other few in the private room also stood up and congratulated Lu Xiaoran.
They are all directors and actors from the Orange Department...
Yang Qing, Wu Ershan, Su Lun and Wen Muye were all present.
This party was a celebration of "A Good Show" - it was released for ten days and the box office exceeded one billion, which was a great success!
You know, "A Good Show" is not an interesting movie. It looks like a comedy in the first half of the hour, and it looks like philosophy in the latter part, telling the big truth. According to the company's prediction, it will be at most 500-800 million yuan in box office, making a small profit...
"A Good Show" has a lot of investment, and Bo Ge is a Virgo again, and he has polished one shot for more than ten times...
It is both time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Ten days passed one billion, Orange Ticketing Profile: 1.5 billion...
By the way, I also meant to congratulate Lu Xiaoran. A few days ago, Lu Xiaoran had two more sons - twins.
After a day of hot searches, everyone on the Internet congratulations to Lu Xiaoran...
It's strange, no one said Tangtang Donkey or something...
...
"I thought you wouldn't come!"
“…I applied for two hours.”
“Add to apply?”
Lu Xiaoran looked proud: "...My son can't live without me!"
When Lu Xiaoran, who was a father for the first time, could not help but smile whenever he thought of his two sons, especially after just a few days, the two dolls seemed to start growing slowly. His wrinkled and red face when he was born, quickly became white and tender, and indescribably cute!
Ning Hao poured him half a glass of wine and raised his glass to wish him: "There will be a few more years when you are bored!"
“…No way?”
"It's a bit annoying when I was three or four years old, five or six years old, and even dogs at seven or eight years old!"
"Let's talk about it then, what is important for children is education..."
After chatting for a few words, Lu Xiaoran picked up the wine glass and ran into Brother Bo: "Congratulations to Brother Bo, your debut work is a big hit!"
“…haha, thank you…”
Brother Bo was quite happy too.
Although selling the post was not his main purpose of filming "A Good Show", he made money and had a good reputation, so this thing is quite worthy of pride.
Let me tell you a secret letter: Brother Bo has always felt that the director is nothing great. The director is responsible for calling for a card, but the actors have to act hard, but in the end he has a work of "Some Director". Why? Why should I give the director award?
Then Liu Dehua criticized: Yes. I really think the director is very important. How could Huang Bo say this? It is not appropriate.
Brother Bo used "A Good Show" to prove that the director is like an actor. Everyone can do it, and there are only very few who can do it!
It is hard to find a good director, and it is even harder to find a good actor!
...
"The box office of "A Good Show" proves another theory!"
"What theory?"
"The main selling point of a movie is the content!"
In fact, when the predictions were made before, Orange Ticketing achieved a box office forecast of 500 million based on online public opinion. In fact, most people who buy tickets to the cinema will not be affected by public opinion.
Most of the audience is really a spiral of silence...
When they saw Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang, they subconsciously bought tickets - although there was no setting of "Love Cemetery", the blessing of "I Am Not a God of Medicine" was even more powerful!
"White Snake is not bad either. I really didn't expect our animation company to produce such excellent pictures!"
Lu Xiaoran shook his head: "…To be honest, I didn't expect it, otherwise I would have changed the schedule!"
I originally thought that "The Origin of the White Snake" was only 300 million to 500 million, but now it seems that it is at least not inferior to "Big Fish and Begonia"...
A big loss!
I actually appeared immediately after "A Good Show", and there will be National Day in another ten days...
There is only ten days to live!
You can only get a box office of 600 million to 800 million at most - this is a work that can exceed one billion!
Lu Xiaoran was very upset.
Orange animation is now short of popular works.
Yang Qing suddenly asked: "I heard you sold "Li Cha's Aunt" to Ali Pictures?"
"...It's not about selling, they want to guarantee a minimum of 1.2 billion yuan in issuance. I think it's reliable, so I agreed!"
"They seem to be National Day?"
"Yes...this is the problem. We have booked "Wu Shuang Prequel" for National Day, and now we are here again "Li Cha's Aunt"..."
"Can't you coordinate?"
"It's impossible to coordinate. Mahua is very confident in the National Day holiday, and is not sure to give in..."
"Aren't you a major shareholder?"
"Not forget it!" Lu Xiaoran laughed and explained: "I sold 40% of the shares, and now I can only be considered the second shareholder..."
The main Mahua Film Industry is becoming more and more market-oriented.
Marketization itself is the reason why Lu Xiaoran decided to acquire Mahua business at the beginning, but he wanted to use Mahua as an independent brand to operate it, which is an organic part of Orange.
The problem now is that people are unwilling to only serve as Orange’s brand and want to operate independently.
Lu Xiaoran talked to them a few times, and then let go decisively - I'll let you fly to see how high you can fly!
However, Lu Xiaoran really made a lot of money in this transaction!
When Lao Lu invested in Mahua Film, he spent less than 100 million yuan, accounting for 75% of the controlling stake. Now Mahua's market value has increased by more than 60 times. Anyway, Ali and Tengxun took over the shares in Lu Xiaoran and each paid 1.3 billion yuan...
...
"You've been resting for a year, right?"
"...No, I've continued to create. The script of "Knife Out 2" has been handed over to Orange Manufacturing. They have found a new director..."
"Then...this project is with you?"
Lu Xiaoran waved his hand indifferently: "It's okay, I have the copyright!"
Ning Hao: "Then when will you prepare for the next movie?"
"Wait a little longer!"
Looking at the people in the room, Lu Xiaoran told the truth: "I have lost my passion for filming recently... I may have to rest for a few years!"
Yang Qing: "You are a famous fast gunner!"
"What fast gunner?"
“On average, two to three movies a year…”
Lu Xiaoran felt aggrieved: "...Isn't it said, prepare five to seven parts at once, and then develop them one by one!"
The old Lu Kuang Gunner's reputation spread all over the world...
Many directors can only make a film for at least one year. After the filming is finished, they will have to take a break for half a year before considering the next film.
In the past, Amou and Feng Pants maintained the speed of filming a year, and were criticized by many people for creating garbage...
In the past few years, Lu Xiaoran maintained the creation speed of three movies every year.
The filming of "The Knife Out" took less than 40 days, shocking the person in charge of Warner...
There are also fast gunners in China, but most of them are small directors, so the weather is not good.
Like Lu Xiaoran, three movies a year, each of which can guarantee a certain quality, which is simply amazing!
