Lin Mengchu asked Chen Cheng if his "good idea" was a good idea that had not gone bad yet. Chen Cheng thought for a moment and said, "Maybe, it will probably go bad."
"It doesn't matter if it turns rancid. What's your good idea?"
"We can film "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!"
"...I think, Mr. Chen, you can remove the word "maybe"." Lin Mengchu said: "Although the new version of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is terrible, if we go to film it, it will only be
Worse!"
Chen Cheng laughed and said: "I didn't say it would take one or two years to finish filming. We can definitely follow the method of American TV series and divide it into many seasons according to time periods. For example, we can film ten episodes in the first season.
, we will only film the events on the eve of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. The ten episodes of the second season will be about the Yellow Turban Uprising, and it will take about twenty years to film, which will almost complete the filming of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms."
Lin Mengchu frowned, "In this case, we will spend a lot of money, right?"
"Well, it's not a problem to easily burn five or six billion in one year."
"We don't have so much money!" Lin Mengchu's eyes widened, "Are we really going to auction antiques? Didn't you say before that if you sell too many things too frequently, it will cause unnecessary trouble?"
"You can take your time, prepare for two or three years, and shoot some war movies first to get some exercise." Chen Cheng said, "I have a script here, you can take a look."
Chen Cheng handed over the printed script. Lin Mengchu took it and looked at it. She saw the six characters "My Brothers from the Tang Dynasty" written on it. She opened it and read it, "......Thirteen
He asked Ma Qi: Do you have gold and silver at home? Ma Qi replied: Yes..."
The lines in the script were very interesting. Lin Mengchu couldn't help but laugh after reading it. "My Brothers from the Tang Dynasty" tells the story of two robbers who were robbing a village. As a result, they encountered officers and soldiers who came to rob the village. Then the robbers and
A story about a conflict between officers and soldiers. This is a story that is both sad and joyful, and joyful and tragic. It uses a comic situation to cover up the core of the tragedy.
"These two bandits are too bad. If it were us, we could kill all those useless officers and soldiers!"
Lin Mengchu quickly read the script and asked: "I feel like this is also a comedy!"
"You think it's a comedy or a comedy, you think it's a tragedy or it's a tragedy. When the work is completed, other things have nothing to do with the author. The same goes for movies. After filming, it has nothing to do with the actors. After editing, the director
Nor can we give a clear definition to the film."
"Classmate Chen, I don't agree with your statement. If what I wrote has nothing to do with me, why does it have nothing to do with me?" Lin Mengchu said unconvinced: "Isn't this reasonable?"
"Principle? This is not only a principle, but also a law." Chen Cheng said: "Forget it, let's not talk about this. I also have a lot of scripts here. You can take a look when you are free. If you think it is the most interesting, we will
Whatever you take, they are all in the F drive of your computer. You can read them on your computer if you want, or you can print them out and read them again."
"oh!"
Lin Mengchu feels that she has been more motivated to study recently than she was in her junior year last year. She gets up at around 7 a.m. every morning and is busy until 7 p.m. It was promised that her senior year would be very leisurely, but now she is even busier.
Fortunately, Chen Cheng prepared a lot of delicious food for her every day, and she could eat meals that were not inferior to the chefs of five-star hotels every day, which made her not want to go out.
While the two of them were reading or studying step by step, the outside world was still as lively as ever. The second son of the Ye family, adhering to the spirit of striking while the iron is hot, posted soft articles in various community spaces and media.
Inviting trolls and constantly hyping it up, many people became interested in this comedy movie.
Anyway, there are no good movies during this period, so it doesn’t hurt to go and see them. So, these audiences were tricked into entering the cinema. In fact, what Ye Laoer did was no different from other film companies, the only difference was that the quality of the movies was better
, and be closer to the people.
Everyone has been to a supermarket. Although fewer people go to a supermarket at night, at least they have seen it. Such a familiar yet unfamiliar subject matter will naturally win the favor of ordinary viewers. The key is the quality of the film, although
Film critics thought the film was too censored, but people liked it.
As a result, the box office of "Nightclub" has been rising along with its reputation. The cost has been recovered long ago, and now every dollar earned is a profit. On the Internet, many people commented on Director Li, saying that after making so many bad movies,
, finally found his own path.
Lin Mengchu would browse forums online every night, and would show Chen Cheng the interesting comments.
"Really, I suggest that you don't look for Director Li's previous works. I just watched "Nightclub" and got some favorable impressions of this director, so I looked for his previous films to watch. Don't watch it.
I know, I was shocked when I saw it. I saw that the style has changed so much that I can’t believe it was taken by the same person.”
"That's it, how can this style change be so big? I have one thing to say. I'm not slandering Director Li. "Nightclub" is a good film, but the ones he made before were really terrible. But I suggest everyone still watch it.
Look, you can have a different feeling."
"Don't be fooled by the people above! I went to see it and felt like I was going blind!"
"Is it that exaggerated? I'm going to try it!"
"Is the good man upstairs back?"
"Equal +1."
"Ahem, I have returned from watching the movie. Now I am too poisoned. I need to go to the artists next door to wash my eyes."
The situation of "Nightclub" is very good, and its reputation far exceeds that of several movies released at the same time. However, it still continues to be underperformed at the box office. This is due to factors such as film schedule and the audience's distrust of Director Li. Moreover,
There are also a large number of trolls flooding the Internet, making the water extremely muddy.
In the first two weeks and weekends, the box office of "Nightclub" could exceed 10 million, but on weekdays it was much less. And as time went by, by the third week, the daily box office was visible to the naked eye.
The speed is decreasing. The box office has dropped so fast, but both the unnamed Director Li and the employees of Shencheng Music Production Company are extremely excited.
The box office has already exceeded 100 million, and I’m about to rush for 200 million. What kind of bicycle do I need?
The cost was only 8 million! Seven million of it was their publicity expenses, which is more than 20 times the profit. After deducting the share of the theater chain and Beidou Investment Co., Ltd., the profit was tens of millions. Is it good to double the profit?
?Even a kid from a rich family like Ye Daoxiong feels that he really made money this time.
Not only did he make money, but he also built up a reputation. From now on, no one can say that his Shencheng company will only make bad movies. Many people began to contact Ye Daoxiong. This time, they failed to eat meat and didn't even drink soup.
Yes, but next time I make a movie, I must bring these people with me.
Most of these film companies are very energetic behind the spoilers. If they had joined in from the beginning, it would have been a simple matter for the box office of "Nightclub" to increase several times. You know, the highest box office of domestic movies now exceeds 50
100 million. How much was the box office of "Nightclub"? It's less than 200 million.
After careful consideration, Ye Er agreed to the request of these giants to play together next time. The condition is that from now on, he will conduct various publicity for "Nightclub". Anyway, he doesn't know what he will shoot next time, so he will make more money this time.
Let’s talk about money.
But on the other hand, Ye Laoer also knows that there are two conditions for making a lot of money this time. First, the publicity is good, there are enough trolls, and a lot of money is spent on publicity. Second, the movie is shot well.
Good, the editing is also very good, the pace is tight, and not a minute is superfluous.
Ye Er knows very well what kind of Lao Li he has under his command. After more than ten years of filming, there is no progress. The main reason for being able to produce such a return film this time is Chu Chu and Chen Cheng. Those things in the crew,
Lao Li also reported everything to him.
Unlike some directors who like to draw stick figures, the storyboards drawn by Chen Cheng are enough to be published directly. By this time, Ye Er had already thrown the greetings from his sister Ye Ying out of the window. That is,
He doesn't have a daughter, otherwise, he would have sent her up directly.
There is no chance of breaking up the couple Chu Chu and Chen Cheng. It can even be said that the chance is very high, but why bother? Isn't it good to earn money comfortably every year?
Ye Er even persuaded Ye Ying in turn, saying on the phone: "Chen Cheng is really good. His character and appearance are both top choices. The most important thing is that he is very talented and treats Chu Chu well. Chu Chu is with him."
We won’t be wronged together.”
Ye Ying sneered on the other side of the phone: "It's not that he's talented, it's that he can help you make money, right?"
It is not difficult to find out about the things in the crew. Besides, she also has acquaintances in the Shencheng music production company. Others also know that she is Ye Er's sister, so it is not too easy to find out the information.
Ye Ying sneered and said: "The more outstanding a man is, the more he likes to flirt with women. How can a person like Chen Cheng really treat Chu Chu wholeheartedly? If there is such a thing, I will write my name upside down!"
Ye Er couldn't help but be speechless. He himself had such worries. When he was in college, people were relatively innocent, but after being exposed to the feasting and feasting society, could he really maintain that innocence? I think back then, he was not
Do you want to be "a couple for life"?
The result? I don’t know how many times he has changed now. Sometimes he will envy other people’s husbands and wives who are harmonious and respectful to each other, but when he turns around, he can’t help but feel restless in his heart. There are all kinds of beauties in this world.
How could he, Second Young Master Ye, hang himself from a tree?
Marriage is just a political marriage, what is outside is true love!
Ye Ying continued to taunt: "You yourself are not upright. What can Chen Cheng learn from getting involved with you?"
