Chapter 764: Embracing the Immortal on the left and Naza on the right, changes in the screenwriting industry
""Xiu Chun Knife 2" was released for 8 days and grossed 614 million at the box office. It received rave reviews and the box office revenue is unstoppable. It is expected to create a domestically produced movie A new box office record for martial arts movies!”
“Cops and Robbers Giant” "Chill 2" hits the big screen, with a box office of 101 million on its first day, becoming the single-day box office champion! "
"To Youth: So You're Still Here" has a box office of 54.86 million on its first day, ranking first in the country! Flow performance is good!”
“……”
After "Xiu Chun Dao 2" hit the first shot of the summer season, topical marketing combined with the film's reputation continued to ferment, forcing the summer film market to reach a climax.
On the 8th, several long-awaited domestic blockbusters swarmed in, and the entire Chinese film market completely entered the rhythm of chaos.
The most anticipated "Cold War 2" took over the box office championship from "Xiu Chun Dao 2" without hesitation.
As for the Chinese and Korean blockbuster "The Bounty Hunter", the box office at this time is worth over 100 million, and the film schedule has dropped to 2%. The single-day box office is less than 1 million, and it is about to fail.
On the crew side of the snow, during the transition time, the actors gathered together to chat,
"Brother..."
"Ahem."
Nazha blinked her big, clear and watery eyes, realizing that this was a public place, and quickly changed her words:
"Boss, I read the film review analysis on Station B and said that you are playing a big game. "
"What game are you playing?"
"Boss Jiang said that he is preparing to film "Cold War 3". By then the conflict will escalate and the plot will become more exciting. Is it true?"
Tianxian, Meng Ziyi, Ding Xiaoying, Liu Yan and others were nearby. The actors all listened eagerly.
The most popular movie these days is "Xiu Chun Knife 2". Wherever Lu Yang takes Liu Shishi and Huang Xiaoming, they are warmly welcomed by fans.
But "Cold War 2" was also a hit, with a box office of over RMB 100 million in the Mainland. It also opened in Hong Kong and grossed RMB 6.8 million on the first day, breaking the record held by Zhou Xingxing and Mermaid.
If you want to be more cool, then be more cool.
As soon as the movie was released, some viewers didn't know much about Hong Kong's official system, and they were confused after watching it, and a lot of big players appeared on the Internet.
Combined with the actual background and various analyses, some conspiracy theories were raised, which was favored by some viewers.
Everyone in the crew was talking about this just now. Even the first brother was involved in this drama. Zhou Yutang didn’t have many roles, but it brought traffic and popularity, and no one dared to ignore the imperial envoy holding Shang Fang’s sword.
"How did I know this?"
"Boss Jiang asked everyone to support it, saying that the box office exceeded one billion, and you might be included in the sequel." Mencius said straightforwardly.
"It's just a big pie."
With these two capitals, thirteen provinces, and Xiangjiang on his shoulders, Zhou Yutang shook his head: "Look, if "Cold War 2" wants to break one billion, it will be difficult. .”
Boss Jiang is no less effective than anyone in his life when it comes to hyping up movies.
However, it is not that easy for "Cold War 2" to break one billion. Even "Xiu Chun Dao 2", which was dubbed by the media as a smash hit in the summer release, had some difficulty.
The early stage marketing was full, and the box office and word-of-mouth were booming. It happened that Tang Yan's "Bounty Hunter" was not strong enough, and most of its potential was redeemed, which is why it achieved such results.
This summer's summer schedule is like a tiger, with several blockbusters being released one after another, and the film schedule is divided, and soon there is another imported blockbuster "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2" gearing up.
“That female stock goddess doesn’t trade in stocks, so why did she come to make a movie?”
“Hey, wasn’t “To Youth” a movie that our CEO Zhou and Huayi collaborated with before?”< br>
“I heard that the author later published a new book, and Zhao Yanzi bought the copyright directly from her.”
“Huh, shameless, just taking advantage of the popularity.”
Nazha snorted, not happy to see Zhao Yanzi rubbing off on her brother's enthusiasm.
This quick-thinking woman is really good at taking shortcuts.
I got on the big ship of Alibaba and got along like a fish in water, especially doing film and television projects.
Although the box office performance and reputation of "Youth" were not as good as "Love in a Bouquet", it was still a rare domestic hit love movie.
It was this movie that made Zhu Yilong famous.
The copyright for Xinyiwu's new work was obtained by Zhao Yanzi with the help of Ali's strength. Top-notch youngster Wu Yifan was cast as Zheng Shuang's cast, but the popularity was not low.
Nazha dared to confront Zhao Yanzi in public, and Liu Yan sounded a little frightened.
After all, now Zhao Yanzi has become a shareholder of Alibaba. The couple has made magic in the stock market, and they are sitting on the capital table.
But thinking that this was Governor Zhou's god-sister, Liu Yan felt relieved again and just glanced at Liu Yifei covertly.
The last scene scheduled today is over, and it’s quite early to call it a day.
Nazha suddenly thought about it and suddenly suggested: "Would you like to go see a movie together?"
"Hey, what are you watching?"
Meng Ziyi suddenly became excited.
She took the blue bird with her, and they were all very interested.
Most girls of this age like to be active rather than quiet. They would rather go out and play than stay bored in a hotel.
It's hot today and I'm sweating while shopping. It's better to go to the cinema to blow off the air conditioner.
Some people are very interested, but others say they can’t go and just want to lie down in the hotel.
Nazha didn’t care, she glanced at her covertly.
She was educated by Zhou Yutang.
In front of everyone, you cannot call me brother, you cannot act like a baby, you cannot...
It's definitely not feasible to watch a movie with Zhou Yutang alone.
I mentioned it several times, either because the weather was bad, or I had to have a summary meeting with the director team and the special effects team.
Tonight I should be accompanying Tianxian, so why not take the opportunity to coax him into watching a movie together.
Anyway, I just feel sorry for my brother. It’s been a hard day filming these days, so I need to relax.
Nazha felt a little proud and couldn't help but praise her wit: "I have watched "Xiu Chun Knife 2" and I heard that the quality of "Big Fish and Begonia" is good, so why not watch it? This? ”
"That's it."
Liu Yan, the host of the Light, stood up: "Nazha invited you last time. Today I invite everyone to watch a movie. Will Yifei go?"
"Yes!"
The topic was raised by Nazha, invited by Liu Yan, and Liu Yifei nodded happily.
Nazha curled her lips, feeling slightly disappointed.
"Xiu Chun Knife 2" is our own film project, so we naturally have to support it.
As soon as the movie was released, Nazha posted the scene on Weibo and even generously invited the crew to form a group to watch the movie.
Coincidentally, Liu Yifei was not feeling well that day and did not go.
Today Nazha also hoped that she would not go, but she failed to do so.
“It’s okay, it’s more lively when there are more people.”
Zhou Yutang's expression was as calm as a lake, and he nodded calmly.
Teacher Fan didn’t have many roles. He had to take a leave of absence from the crew to promote "Escape", but it was a pity that the three great faces could not be together.
However, with the two great beauties Tianxian and Nazha living apart, Governor Zhou felt a certain excitement in his heart.
In the dark environment of the theater, sitting in the back row, I acted based on my feelings.
On the left, he was eating popcorn and holding Tianxian’s little hand, and on the right, he was touching Jianguo’s leg.
"We still need to work hard to hug each other."
Zhou Yutang couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Liu Yifei didn't hear clearly and asked: "Xiao Zhou, what did you just say?"
" It’s nothing, the movie is just okay, but the plot is a bit underwhelming.”
“Captain Zhou’s requirements are very strict.”
“The picture is beautiful.”
"By the way, are dolphins and whales fish?"
"..."
After watching the movie quietly, everyone was chattering, which was quite lively.
Zhou Yutang didn’t just touch his legs, he also attached great importance to the light and colorful house project.
Overall, the visuals and soundtrack are good, the plot and lines are barely interesting, and the flaws do not hide the flaws.
After all, Chinese animation is now in its infancy and cannot all meet the standards of "The Return of the Great Sage".
It was already after nine o'clock when we came out of the cinema, and Governor Zhou paid for the late-night snack.
In order to keep up with the schedule during this period, the crew was like clockwork. We were exhausted and had to give people a taste of the sweetness.
The girls sat together, and Zhou Yutang sat at Brother Long's table, chatting with Chen Xiao.
It turned out that there was supposed to be a movie version of Ce Hua's "A Little Smile Is Alluring" this month.
The rights to this film were bought from Jiangdong. It was originally a piece of cake between Nazha and Chen Xiao, but was later postponed due to scheduling conflicts.
As a result, it fell into the hands of Yang Yang and Zheng Shuang. In order to avoid the fairy fight in the summer release, the release was postponed to next month.
"China Television's "That Year the Flowers Bloomed and the Moon Was Full"?"
Zhou Yutang was slightly stunned when Brother Long and Chen Xiao talked about this.
"Mr. Zhou heard of it?"
"I've had dinner with Mr. Zhao several times."
Zhou Yutang has quite an impression of Zhao Yi.
After all, with a background in science and engineering, not many people jump from the IT and PE investment fields to the entertainment industry.
It is even more unusual to use IT project management methods and risk control concepts in the investment field to develop film and television projects.
Like Ke Liming of Confucian culture, Zhao Yi is very methodical in doing things. Last year, he won many awards for "The Ordinary World".
As he was talking, he received a call from Guangguang Lao Wang,
"Mr. Wang?"
"Yu Tang, are you eating?"
Wang Changtian heard it over there Laughter came from the box.
“I just watched “Big Fish” and it was very good.”
Zhou Yutang fully recognized the capabilities of the Caitiaowu team.
"Haha, good luck, good luck."
This just scratched Wang Changtian's itch. This was what he called to talk about, so his laughter was particularly hearty and joyful.
Since the release of "The Return of the Great Sage" by Jiangdong Entertainment last year, film and television companies in the industry have seen the prospects of the domestic animation industry.
Many animation projects have sprung up.
Among them, Wang Changtian of Guangwang laid out the colorful house and recruited troops. The first movie he has produced now is of very good quality.
The box office on the first day was 74.6 million, and the box office on the second day was even higher, which is definitely a commendable achievement.
Although it is not as sensational as last year's "The Return of the Great Sage" when it reached the top, it is still worth watching than Huayi's "Rock Tibetan Mastiff".
The 3D animated film "Rock Tibetan Mastiff" is adapted from the comic book of the same name by the famous musician Zheng Jun, and he sings the theme song.
The film is directed by Ash Brannon, the director of "Toy Story 2", with a top Hollywood team, and the domestic Chinese version is dubbed by Feng Xiaogang, Guo Degang, Guo Qilin and others.
China Story + Hollywood luxury production team standard configuration, with a total investment of over 60 million US dollars.
Before this, it was Cannes again, and another announcement was made against "The Return of the Great Sage".
And he said that he would take over the global market and immediately shut down the power after it is released. In the end, the first day's box office was 3.51 million, and today's box office was only over 5 million. Huayi was completely unlucky and didn't even have the nerve to send out the draft.
Wang Changtian felt indescribably happy.
Guangguang and Huayi are old rivals. With a cost of 30 million, "Big Fish and Begonia" achieved more than 20 times the box office of "Rock Tibetan Mastiff" with an investment of 60 million US dollars.
This return on investment is not at the same level.
Hitting your opponent’s face until it’s swollen is a crime.
……
It is July and the weather is gradually getting hotter.
The crew was in the snow, the snowmaking machine was running at full capacity, and there were heavy snowflakes flying in the sky.
Today we filmed the scene where Zhou Yutang was crowning Princess Beiliang in front of her tomb.
Zhou Yutang, dressed in a white robe and a black gold cloak with silk patterns, knelt down in front of the princess's tomb.
Looking lonely and fragile, the little hearts of the female crew members who were watching were shattered to pieces.
The atmosphere is unparalleled.
Even Liu Tianxian couldn't help but want to hold the Governor in his arms to cherish him.
Li Muge's eyes were already as bright as light bulbs.
"On an auspicious day, I will start to wear the Canadian Yuan Dynasty. I will give up my ambition and follow you to become a virtuous person..."
At this time, Xu Xiao, the king of Northern Liang, played by Li Xuejian, has a solemn expression. Feeling relieved.
The process is recorded in detail in "The Ritual Ceremony". The snow is an imaginary background and does not entirely follow the ancient books.
But many things are also derived from ancient books.
It is these details, piled together, that make the whole drama more textured.
“Everyone in the capital is staring at your crown.”
Xu Xiao put on three hats for Xu Fengnian, namely Zhenbu crown, Pi Bian, and Jue Bian.
From then on, his son can become an official and govern people...
He really took off his dandy's mask and took up the banner of the Northern Liang Palace.
The etiquette was complicated. When it came to the last crown, Xu Xiao did not wear the crown, but instead put on his son a crown made by Princess Beiliang when she was alive.
What a pity, Princess Beiliang is no longer alive.
A few close-ups were given to Xu Xiao, Xu Fengnian and Jiang Ni.
The Northern Liang King of the Six Kingdoms has a deep and gentle heart. As a husband, he devoted himself to the memory of his deceased wife.
She should be happy to be able to raise her son, right?
His Royal Highness, the prince, who is as handsome as a god, has a lonely look on his face.
As a son, he missed his mother.
Coupled with Zhou Yutang’s foul look, I don’t know how many girls will be heartbroken.
Wherever Liu Yifei goes, she looks as beautiful as a picture.
A pair of clear-cut autumn eyes are shining, implying unbearability and making people even more pitiful.
The kind-hearted Princess of Beiliang is no different from her mother to the poor little clay figurine.
All the pictures on the monitor are really moving.
“Passed!”
This feeling was so good that Li Muge was so excited that he slapped his thigh.
He had no heart, and the more he tortured him, the more excited he became, and he almost laughed out loud.
The crew members nearby felt that he was somewhat seriously ill and quietly distanced themselves.
"Mr. Zhou, come and drink water."
Xiao Chen diligently handed over the water. Zhou Yutang unscrewed the cap and handed it to Teacher Li Xuejian first.
He took another bottle of water and handed it to Miss Liu.
Even though the scenes were filmed in the snow, the atmosphere was very good. In fact, it was thirty-seven degrees today.
The actor is so hot in this heavy costume that he doubts his life!
......
Twelve days after its release, the mainland box office of "Spring Knife 2" reached 785 million, continuing to lead the summer season and hitting one billion.
Continuous hit film and television works have put Huang Xiaoming at the forefront of the limelight again.
Everyone was surprised to find out that Mr. Greasy Boss’ classmate’s acting skills were so good. Whether it was the Phoenix scumbag in "Dangerous Wife" or the cold and stern Jinyiwei, he could handle these two characters with such huge contrasts. Dead.
As for Liu Shishi and Xin Zhilei, they also excelled in fighting scenes, which is rare among domestic entertainment actresses.
Especially Liu Shishi, because of someone's partiality, he has a lot of high-profile scenes, which can be regarded as adding a bit of brightness to the macho gangster drama "Xiu Chun Dao".
The second place on the summer list is "Chill 2", which grossed 442 million in five days of release.
Then "Big Fish and Begonia" steadily suppressed Zhao Yanzi's "To Youth·Fresh Meat Edition".
Wu Yifan's acting skills were inevitably compared with Zhu Yilong's, and he was beaten into a scumbag.
Brother Long acted opposite Sister Lianhua at that time, but his acting skills were not inferior at all.
Fan Fan, who returned from South Korea, obviously does not have this strength. His words "Su Yunjin, how can I pay back what you owe me?" were so embarrassing that it made people dig their toes into the center of the earth.
At the bottom of the list is Huayi's "Rock Tibetan Mastiff". Strangely, for a project that is clearly losing money, the producer expressed his belief that it can achieve a box office counterattack by relying on word of mouth.
And the sequel has been approved.
The taste cannot be savored carefully.
……
The movie market has become a mess, with all the heroes vying for the summer slots.
As for the TV screen market, it is relatively harmonious, and the Magic City Tomato Channel is still the dominant one.
The overseas online broadcasts in South Korea and Neon have exploded, making this drama even more popular.
Amid countless scoldings from viewers, Channel Tomato reluctantly broadcast the finale of "My Dangerous Wife".
#林真真手狠scumbagman#explosion!
#Dangerous Wife Finale# exploded!
#Gao Yuanyuan’s Most Beautiful Wife# is explosive!
#黄小明StupidCry#Explosion!
Ever since "The Wife" was aired, it has been on the hot searches.
Da Meiyuan with black lotus skin is not only the goddess in the hearts of countless men, but also the female market.
The same style of dress that Lin Jinyi wore in the drama was sold out online within a few days.
As the plot unfolds, there are more and more discussions about this drama in the industry.
“I originally thought it was an adaptation of the TV series version of "Gone Girl", but now it seems that it really gave the audience a big surprise. Such results are undoubtedly due to the brand effect of screenwriter Zhou Yutang, Gao Yuanyuan + Huang Xiaoming The combination of big names also produced a wonderful chemical reaction.”
"The script framework was made by Zhou Yutang, and the complete script was written by Jiangdong Entertainment's Screenwriting and Creation Center. This screenwriting department should not be underestimated!"
"Zhou Yutang was not the first to set up the Screenwriting and Creation Center. Zhou Yi had it before A similar department unfortunately failed to persist.
Zhou Yi Company collapsed and Jiang Dong Entertainment's creative center is now in operation.
To date, there are more than fifty screenwriters on staff, and he has a screenwriting gold medal for his use. In the future, excellent scripts will be given priority to Jiangdong Entertainment, which has formed a network. A virtuous circle.
A layman can see the excitement, but an expert can see the truth.
Film and television companies in the industry analyze more from the industrial layout of Jiangdong Entertainment and discovered the power of Jiangdong's screenwriting department.
This time the screenwriter of "My Dangerous Wife" is co-signed.
Zhou Yutang’s name is at the top of the list, followed by the names of the members of the screenwriting team in Jiangdong Creative Center who are responsible for the entire project.
For the governor who is now famous all over the world, these false names are just the icing on the cake.
But for the screenwriters who co-signed it later, it is tantamount to truly becoming famous.
In the film and television industry, stars have to speak for themselves with their works, and the same goes for screenwriters.
Having such a representative work on his resume is enough to make those originally unknown screenwriters worth dozens of times.
Ren Yan is such a screenwriter.
He is also an extremely ordinary little person in society.
Also from Yancheng, Jiangsu Province, he did not show his prominence like Zhou Yutang when he debuted.
After graduating from college and entering the society with great ambition, I was severely beaten by reality.
It is not easy for Ren Yan, who graduated from a third-rate university, to live with his girlfriend in Beijing without financial support from his family.
Excluding the monthly rent, necessary commuting, and other miscellaneous living costs.
Just one word, difficult.
It is said that the entertainment industry is prosperous, but this prosperity has nothing to do with the screenwriters at the bottom.
For a time, Ren Yan couldn't work as a screenwriter and found a job in real estate sales. However, he was fired at the end of the internship without any billing.
Then I delivered takeaways and did express delivery sorting.
For Ren Yan, a young man from a small town, life is probably a difficult mode.
My colleagues usually call me to eat and talk about losing weight, but in fact they are afraid of spending money.
When I was the poorest, I could only eat noodles in the rice cooker.
Life went on like this until later, Ren Yan accidentally saw the recruitment advertisement of Jiangdong Entertainment.
With the encouragement of my girlfriend, I submitted my resume and successfully passed the interview and became a screenwriter at Jiangdong Entertainment.
He was inexplicably assigned to work for an old screenwriter, and he was responsible for the project "My Dangerous Wife" with the team.
Zhou Yutang made the script framework and character settings, but all the details of the entire script are the work of the screenwriting team.
This is also the current situation of the domestic screenwriting industry.
Most A-list screenwriters go to gunmen without any byline.
Many low-level editors who are not well-known have also acquiesced in this rule for the sake of experience.
But what is different about Jiangdong Entertainment is that it pays a basic salary, and in addition to project commissions, it also has the signature of the screenwriter.
Of course, as a new member of the team, Ren Yan’s project commission is quite different from that of his screenwriting teacher.
Nonetheless, when Ren Yan looked at his name, he appeared on TV together with three project members, behind Zhou Yutang.
He was so happy that he almost went crazy.
In comparison, the project commission of nearly 70,000 yuan after tax deduction seems insignificant.
After the show was aired, it was enough for Ren Yan to gain a firm foothold in this circle.
After receiving several outsourcing projects assigned by the company’s brokerage business department, after changing the trajectory of his life, and finally having the confidence to give his girlfriend a better future, Ren Yan felt inspired and posted this Weibo,
“Thank you to the Governor and Jiangdong Entertainment for giving me such an opportunity. Without him, there would be no drama "The Wife". I will never forget those nights when I stayed up late to discuss, keep my original intention and forge ahead. Go ahead!”
This circle is full of impetuosity, especially after the influx of capital.
Remuneration across the entire industry has skyrocketed. Big stars earn tens of millions per film, and their status in the crew is unimaginably high.
But at the same time.
Jiangdong Entertainment is also cultivating more capable screenwriters, which has also slightly increased the voice of screenwriters in the entire industry.
Even just a little bit is progress.
This will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the entire environment of the film and television industry.
