Chapter 379 Liu Yifei: It’s so interesting, no need to shout shameless, use the time to kiss your junior brother!
"Director Guan, would you like to sit down and talk about your share of the animation "The Wind Rises" later?"
As soon as I got up from bed early in the morning, Han Sanpin's call came.
Guan Ling took his arm out from behind Liu Yifei's neck and then answered the call.
During the phone call, Han Sanpin was very excited.
“We definitely need to talk. I won’t be able to go back until a few months later, but the project doesn’t wait for anyone. Regarding the investment, I will let Fang Ping and others talk to you based on legal matters.”< br>
Guan Ling doesn’t mind giving out part of the share.
And after all, it is an animated movie, Guan Ling is confident to make this movie a hit.
But it is a risky project after all, and the content has been modified compared to "The Wind Rises". If something goes wrong, the risk can be shared.
Of course Guan Ling thinks this drama will probably make money.
With the current Chinese animation market, Guan Ling feels that even if he makes a Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf movie, as long as the investment cost is under control, it will still be profitable.
"What is the approximate amount of investment? Do you have an estimate?"
Han Sanpin was smiling and relaxed on the phone.
But the next second, the other person asked in surprise, "What?"
The phone was silent for dozens of seconds before Han Sanpin said in shock, "Two thousand An investment of 10,000 U.S. dollars?”
Guan Ling: “Yes, 20 million U.S. dollars. There is a lot of content that I may not be able to do in China, but I am also prepared to do some light music. Find a master."
"I understand the soundtrack and the theme song, but I really don't know where to put such a large investment in the cartoon?"
"Basic computer modeling? , live-action conversion into 3D, chase scenes, countless corrections to the scene mise-en-scène, corrections to speed, binding of characters, action design, scenes, by then the movie passes quickly, but every leaf, every cloud, every drop Rain, as well as all kinds of detail modifications and special effects, will cost money."
Guan Ling clearly heard people talking over there, "Are animated movies so expensive? "
"Don't worry, Director Han." Guan Ling said, "I have made a movie worth 200 million US dollars. How can you still be shocked by this trivial matter?"
"That's a Hollywood science fiction film, but this is animation."
Han Sanpin took a breath, "With so much investment, if you want to make money, the box office will be at least 500 million. Why do I feel a little weak?"
Today’s animation market has a box office of 500 million yuan.
Han Sanpin really couldn’t believe it.
I have to say that this investment left Lao Han speechless.
Not because of Guan Ling, but because of the type.
"You are talking about the box office in the mainland." Guan Ling said, "The purpose of my movie is not just domestic."
"That's not a big deal." Han Sanpin said, "I We have to discuss it. I made this call with the intention of making money, but you just gave me a sap."
"Pay attention to your attitude," Guan Ling said with a smile, "I said you wanted to develop domestic animation. , you are not the one who is becoming bigger and stronger, right?"
"You kid." Han Sanpin said, "In the past two days, "Blood Battle in the Sky" has started, and I have realized a problem. It’s not me who was photographed. I was so poor that I didn’t even have a plane, so there was something wrong with this idea.”
"There are some scenes involving air combat, but very few. There won't be too much involvement in that aspect. At most, it will just pass by. In terms of review, Ling Yun has suffered a lot. In terms of content control, who can I compare with? You can rest assured about this."
"Okay, I have no problem here, but I have to convince those people, give me some time."
"No. "It's okay to invest," Guan Ling said, "To be honest, I wish you wouldn't open your mouth."
...
"Director Han's phone number?"
Telephone number. Just as he hung up, Liu Yifei had already stood up.
She sat up from the bed without makeup, and Guan Ling sucked several small strawberries on her fair and slender neck.
Her smooth and pink face was covered with a smile, a smile of excitement after last night's hard work.
“Yes, why did you wake up?”
“I turned over hazily, but I didn’t touch you, so I woke up with a fright.”
"Why are you still scared?"
Liu Yifei scratched her head, came forward and hugged Guan Ling,
"I have been busy with endorsements and promotions in China recently, so I came to see you. It's also because I miss you so much. When I woke up just now, I didn't know where I was for a moment.
My mind was a mess. I thought I would hug you, but it was in vain. I woke up. I thought I was having an erotic dream.”
Liu Yifei laughed herself.
Showing her shy, representative smile.
The teeth are so white.
Guan Ling was also slightly moved by Liu Yifei's words and rubbed her head.
“Would you like to have some breakfast?”
“No, I’m sleepy.” Liu Yifei took Guan Ling’s hand and said, “Keep sleeping with me.”
"Are you still sleepy? You deserve it. You woke me up in the middle of the night." Guan Ling said, "You're fine, I still have to film."
"Yes," Liu Yifei suddenly remembered, "Then You go and do your work. Kiss me. But I still want to sleep."
Then she turned over.
Xiao Lei, who was still somewhat curved, disappeared without a trace for a while.
“What are you looking at?” The other party wrinkled his nose and showed an angry look. "Go and work hard, see you tonight."
Guan Ling gestured with half of his palm.
He left with a smile.
Liu Yifei suddenly arrived in the United States the day before yesterday. Fortunately, Guan Ling had made arrangements early, otherwise she would have bumped into Fan Bingbing.
The situation is embarrassing.
Fan Bingbing is indeed very knowledgeable. Ever since Liu Yifei landed in Hollywood, Guan Ling didn't say a word and she disappeared into Guan Ling's room.
…………
“Feng Xiaogang, Chen Kaige, Zhao Benshan, and Guan Ling compete in the Lunar New Year festival! "Laughing in the River" entered the Lunar New Year festival, and the premiere scene was filled with laughter!!"
< br>“The 2011 Lunar New Year movie season is starting to get smokey, and Benshan Media’s first Lunar New Year drama, “Laughing Rivers and Lakes,” will be released today!”
December 3rd, the first day of theaters for “Laughing Rivers and Lakes” , completely pushing the entire Lunar New Year market to the most lively peak!
Although the news about Guan Ling has crossed the Lunar New Year news.
But it didn’t have enough popularity to stay on the hot searches. In an instant, it was overshadowed by the turbulent news during the Lunar New Year.
The first one to be broadcast was Zhao Benshan’s "Laughing in the Rivers and Lakes".
Tomorrow is the release date of Chen Kaige's "The Orphan of Zhao".
The attention of the industry has finally shifted away from Guan Ling and entered the early stage of the Lunar New Year season.
To everyone's surprise, although the publicity for "The Orphan of Zhao" was overwhelming, Fan Bingbing didn't show up. This time, Chen Kai and his wife didn't say a word.
When reporters interviewed, they laughed and claimed that Fan Bingbing was busy.
As directors, they are very understanding.
Many people are surprised, when did Brother Chen Kai have such a good temper?
Is this because you don’t want to continue to compete with Guan Ling because you have the competitor "Laughing Jiang Hu"?
However, at this time, theater chains, capital, and more important content have nothing to do with Guan Ling.
Everyone is waiting for the Lunar New Year box office to come out.
The attendance rate on the first day of "Laughing Rivers and Lakes" was very good. According to some publicity, it can be seen that "Zhao Family Class" has indeed contributed a lot of jokes to people. As a brainless Northeastern stew, some materials The video showed constant laughter at the theater venue.
As a costume action comedy movie, its level of spoofing really made the public pay for it.
Many people claim that this is a Northeast version of the Lunar New Year duo. Some film critics have already begun to curse, "As a well-known Chinese director, Zhang Yimou told everyone in the industry with "Three Guns" that even if he feeds shit to the audience, everyone will watch it!"
That afternoon, many movie reviews appeared online.
The majority of the comments were negative, with many people personally attacking the director and the actors of Zhao Family Ban.
“Our country’s film industry is currently booming and there are a lot of talents. Artists and teachers in the literary and art circles put aside their grudges and work hand in hand to share joys and sorrows and live in harmony. “Laughing in the Rivers and Lakes” is the perfect example of this great occasion. Miniature. The value of art is immeasurable. If it can be evaluated on Douban, I will never rate it! ——I just want to be your mother!"
"I will hold the first Golden Donkey Award Ceremony in China, pig. The director must be the best director this time!”
“There are a lot of laughs, but the plot is clueless. If you spend money to watch this, you might as well go to a bathing center in Northeast China to get your feet pinched!”
"Put aniseed into a pot of paste, and within five minutes I fell in love at first sight. Why didn't you do a sex scene?!"
"I was so disgusted that I cried because I was so disgusted. Throughout the whole story, I The only thing that is certain is that Zhu Yanping can do nothing but flirt. If Zhu Yanping is brought to the capital, he will still be Zhu Yanping. If he is taken to the Northeast, he will be Zhu Yanping of the Northeast. I vomited out all the chive pie I ate yesterday. The script written by screenwriter Ning Caishen is definitely not such a story, but Zhu Yanping obviously made this movie into a stupid movie. I really want to ask, can it be cut out and released? Can what comes out be a movie? If so, I can only say that China does not have many liars, but not enough fools!”
There is endless abuse on the Internet.
But it also brings heat.
In fact, everyone knows that most people who go to see this movie do it for fun.
Life is hard enough, why ask for it? !
And this director, from "Slam Dunk" to "The Tomb Raider", is a familiar face that has appeared in the mainland Chinese New Year market every time in the past three years.
Everyone knows what his movie is about.
Swearing, that is, trying to make a happy mouth.
Only those who really love movies and comedies will be so sad and cursed to death.
Brother Chen Kai felt inexplicably happy after seeing the news online.
If his competitor's reputation collapses, his movie's box office will have a huge chance.
Maybe the price will rise sharply due to film schedule.
After all, these two movies were originally scheduled to be almost the same as "The Orphan of Zhao".
As a result, the official data came out the next day, and the industry was stunned. Chen Kai was also stunned. The attendance rate of "Laughing in the River" exceeded 80%, which was even higher than "Harry Potter 7".
After all, the attendance rate of the latter is only more than 50%.
"The box office on the first day was 23 million! "Laughing in the River" has a good start at the Lunar New Year box office!"
Hollywood, Yu Dong raised a glass of wine to Guan Ling at the wine table.
"Director Guan, it seems that I have a good vision, right? Before the bell rings, all the news for me now is good news! The movie I invested in seems to have been released for the Lunar New Year. A good start.”
The producer and publisher of “Laughing in the Rivers and Lakes” are Bona. Yu Dong is still very satisfied with this first-day result.
"Congratulations to Mr. Yu, the comedy film has a high probability of making money at the box office on its first day."
Despite saying this, Guan Ling couldn't help but complain in his heart, even before ringing the bell It's good news.
After ringing the bell, you cried.
“No matter how much money I make, it is incomparable to your share as Director Guan. If you leak it from between your fingers, you will make more than I did on other movies.”
After drinking two glasses of wine.
Yu Dong and Guan Ling discussed ringing the bell for listing. "Actually, I have talked with the listing lawyer. They are all good news and not good news. It is best to have some bad news now, so that the listing can be done It’s time for institutions to be deceived and lose their footing, so that my stock price can stabilize. But now in the domestic entertainment industry, the only thing that can be called bad news is Guan Dao.”
"What do you mean?" Guan Ling asked.
"How about you let it out and say that you will no longer cooperate with Bona?" Yu Dong started to play business war, "Of course, this news will only last ten days. After the listing, this news will be It will be clarified immediately."
"Compared to this, I think the news about your cheating or fake divorce would be more sensational."
"My company. It’s not a mom-and-pop shop, so it’s useless.” Yu Dong toasted another glass of wine, “Director Guan, can you help me with the shares? I’ll transfer 2% to you.”
How can you be so powerful if you don't cooperate? "The benefits are so exciting that Guan Ling himself didn't expect that his cooperation in announcing a message could have such an effect.
However, Bona’s performance as soon as it was listed was still good.
The interests of these shares are not decimals.
Yu Dong saw Guan Ling’s temptation,
"In the Chinese entertainment industry, if there are two pieces of news that can make the organization lose its footing, the first one is that China's policy prevents Bona from getting involved in film and television, and the second one must be related to you, Director Guan.
This matter cannot be done without you. You must know that in our previous financial reports, most of the money-making projects were related to your guidance. In fact, I should have expressed my gratitude this time. ”< br>
After the wine table was over, Liu Yifei on the side was a little shocked.
"Is this how business wars work? For what kind of organization, what kind of shortfall, just give away shares?"
Liu Yifei's big eyes were full of panic.
......
On December 4th, "The Orphan of Zhao" was released in theaters.
As Chen Kai's much-anticipated turnaround, the premiere of this drama has been held for more than a week. This week, everyone has been doing road shows and promoting it.
Brother Chen Kai and Cheng Hong are also running around.
Only Fan Bingbing did not show up.
But this is also a way out that Brother Chen Kai has left for himself.
On the first day of release, the attendance rate of "The Orphan of Zhao" was also good.
But in the afternoon, the appearance of some film reviews made Brother Chen Kai unable to hold himself any longer.
“In the past few years, compared with Jiang Wen, whose style has always been vigorous, and Feng Xiaogang, whose narrative is shallow and deep, Chen Kai’s movies have become more and more in line with the sexual abilities of men of his age. The foreplay is exciting, But there is no way to continue.”
At home, when little Arthur accidentally helped his father read out the movie review at home.
Dad was silent.
My mother was also silent.
Little Arthur was full of energy and shouted very loudly.
His mother shouted so loudly that she threw him out of the room.
In the room, Cheng Hong looked at Brother Chen Kai, "When the film critics think you can't do it, then maybe you really can't do it."
Brother Chen Kai: "What, you think I can't do it too, don't you?"
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he cursed viciously, "Shameless, these film critics are so damn shameless!"
< br>Cheng Hong didn't say anything, then she picked up her phone,
"Call Guan Ling and make an appointment for the script. No matter what the results of this drama are, you have to change."
"If I don't fight, how do you know that "The Orphan of Zhao" will definitely be finished?"
"It has nothing to do with "The Orphan of Zhao". No matter what your results are this time, you have to change. And the one who can help you now is also It’s just Guan Ling.”
“Even if I’m really dead, even if I’m really incompetent, even if I jump out of this room, I won’t make this call.”
Brother Chen Kai turned into a ruthless man and really couldn’t save his face.
Dudududu.
Cheng Hong dialed directly.
After a while, the phone call came through.
Brother Chen Kai hurriedly took the phone.
"Hey, hey, are you your junior brother? I am brother Chen Kai!"
