Chapter 288 Celebration Banquet of "33 Days of Broken Love"
The industry has been very pessimistic about February, especially the Spring Festival season in the middle of the month. The weekly revenue of "Avatar" is still more than 80 million to 100 million, and it has been released for more than a month!
Therefore, the outside world generally believes that whether it is Huayi's "Love in the City" or Jackie Chan's "Little Soldier", they will be cannon fodder for "Avatar", let alone an urban comedy with an investment of 8 million and a new cast. Filmed.
However, no one expected that through Weibo and the "New Year's Day coincides with Valentine's Day" marketing, Shengsheng took 20 million yuan off the market on the first day.
Then the reputation of "Love Is Not Blind" began to grow, and it took in a box office of 160 million in the first seven days.
Kicked "Avatar" from the throne of weekly champion!
Isn’t this nonsense!
You killed "Avatar" at a cost of 8 million!
Everyone is having fun remotely!
"I'm very happy," director Teng Huatao said in an interview, "I'm also surprised. I didn't expect such good results. This shows that in the era of blockbusters, as long as the script and actors are chosen right, our small-cost production can also have a foothold. After that, I will continue to promote "33 Days", and next month I will join the team to shoot a new movie, a campus youth film."
"A Little Thing of First Love" was also given to Teng Huatao.
For a film with an investment of only 8 million, the first week's score of 160 million is already worthy of a grand celebration party.
"Big Dog Brother, congratulations." Cheng Yu'an congratulated Big Dog Brother, the boss of Galloping Horse, the partner of "33 Days of Love".
Of course Big Dog is very happy. This is the most successful movie produced by Pony Pictures: "We are all happy, Director Cheng's New Year's gift is really too expensive." Big Dog joked.
"Brother Big Dog, the cake is so big that not even the remote family can eat it. Win-win cooperation is the way to development."
"Yes, cooperation is the only way to achieve win-win results. So on "The Dark Side," I would also like to ask Director Cheng to take care of me."
"Definitely." Cheng Yu'an smiled and said, "I'm sure you'll take good care of me. Both my aunt and nephew have their eyes on the vice president, and want to poach him without giving him a few sweet dates?"
On the other side, Cheng Lingfeng was holding Zhong Lifang to talk privately. Zhong Lifang had long known that Cheng's aunt and nephew wanted to poach her away from Xiao Ma, but she never nodded. Xiao Ma and Big Dog were kind to her, so she couldn't Just walk away like this.
But at the same time, she also knew that Pony could no longer tolerate her.
Since the introduction of US$70 million in financing, Zhong Lifang has struggled within the group. In addition, she has facilitated the cooperation between Yuan Yuan and Xiao Ma on "33 Days After Love" and "The Dark Side".
It's amazing that "33 Days of Love" actually became a big hit.
It can be said that the more "33 Days of Love" sells, the more trouble she will have within the company.
How many people were waiting for you to make a fool of yourself, but you ended up making a hugely explosive drama.
What do you want? Do you want to be the leader with great achievements or do you want to usurp the throne?
Therefore, Zhong Lifang did not say anything about Cheng Lingfeng's lobbying today. She only said: "I will consider it."
Zhong Lifang has thought about leaving Pony and starting her own business, and has also thought about switching to remote control, but she hasn't made up her mind yet.
"How's it going?" Cheng Yu'an came over to ask Cheng Lingfeng after talking to Brother Big Dog.
"This is about 80% done."
"What did you say?"
"I told her that I will leave Yuan Yuan this year to take over a big film company. The position of CEO of Yuan Yuan Media will be reserved for her, and she will be given this amount of salary." Cheng Lingfeng held out two fingers, "In addition, she will be given 1.33% of the salary." shares.”
In terms of salary, Cheng Lingfeng's quotation has almost reached the top level in the industry at this time.
Especially the 1.33% shares, these are the shares of Yuan Yuan Media, not subsidiary companies such as Yuan Yuan Culture or Yuan Yuan Film and Television.
Holding shares in Remote Media means that she can participate in the management of all remote companies, including Remote Technology and Tiangong Yicai, except for one major film company.
Cheng Lingfeng was willing to pay for Zhong Lifang.
Of course, the aunt and nephew have always been the largest shareholders and actual controllers of the entire remote media.
"This matter has to be done slowly. The 1.33% of the shares is not paid in one lump sum. The agreement I made with her is for 4 years. In the first year, 0.2% will be cashed out. It will not be until the fourth year that I will give her 1.33% or even
More."
"You figure it out," Cheng Yu'an said quickly when he saw a person walking not far away, "I'm leaving first."
"What are you doing? It's like chasing a dog away." Cheng Lingfeng scolded him.
Cheng Yu'an hurriedly sneaked into the company's actor circle and avoided visitors.
The person who came was Ren Zhonglun of Shanghai Film Group Corporation. He was jealous of China Film Group Corporation's "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" and wanted to persuade Cheng Yu'an to work with Shanghai Film Group Corporation on "Revolution of 1911".
Cheng Yu'an now has no time to hide from this all-star theme, not to mention that he really has no interest in "Revolution of 1911". Ren Chonglun came to him several times, but he dealt with it and didn't expect to catch up to the celebration banquet.
.
"Mr. Cheng," Ren Chonglun failed to catch Cheng Yu'an and instead started chatting with Cheng Lingfeng, "Long time no see." The same goes for dealing with Cheng Lingfeng.
On the other side, Cheng Yuan is communicating with his actors, especially the protagonists of several dramas that will be filmed in the first half of the year.
"'The Dark Side' mainly focuses on two female protagonists, and the male protagonist Wu Shaohui doesn't have much room to play." Cheng Yu'an said.
"It's okay," the male protagonist Brother Hu didn't care, "I think I like the story "The Dark Side"." Brother Hu has already grown a beard, carefully trimmed, and looks a bit like an artist.
"Where's Shi Shi?" Cheng Yu'an thought of Liu Shi Shi.
"She didn't come, but "The Stranger Iljimae" has already started shooting, and there are two TV series waiting for her later. She plans to live in Xiaobailou this year."
Cheng Yu'an thought for a while, "The Stranger" will be released in March, "The Three Daughters of the Xia Family" will be released in May, and "Step by Step" will be released in July. Don't expect to see Salted Fish Shi outside this year.
Speaking of Liu Shishi, Cheng Yu'an asked a lot: "Who did the fourth elder brother choose in "Step by Step"?"
"The initial decision is Nie Yuan."
Cheng Yu'an said: "Nie Yuan has no problem playing this kind of role."
"Director Cheng, when is our "Dark Side" scheduled for summer vacation?" Brother Hu asked him.
"At the end of June, avoid the "Tangshan Earthquake"."
This year is Feng Xiaogang's most prosperous year. Two movies - "Tangshan Earthquake" and "If You Are the One 2", have grossed a total of 1 billion in box office.
"Then what will we have on the Lunar New Year stall?"
""The Journey" and "Wulin Gaiden"." Cheng Yu'an said, "The shooting of "The Journey" will start in two months. The main characters have been established. If you are interested, you can play the two roles. This
The film will be released in December. The script for "The Legend of Martial Arts" is still being worked on and will start filming in June or July and will be released in January."
"Director Cheng, I really like "Wulin Gaiden". Can you let me play a role?" Lei Jiayin volunteered.
"It's probably difficult. I've read the first draft of the script. It tells a story about real estate. It's hard for an actor of your age to play the lead role. A friendly guest appearance with a face is fine."
"Okay, I'll do this." Lei Jiayin doesn't mind that his appearance is too big and his looks are too small, so he is content to be able to act.
After chatting with everyone for a while, Cheng Yuan left.
With him around, except for people like Lei Jiayin who are fun-loving, no one else can let go.
Chapter completed!
