I’m a Gangster [Quick Wear] - Chapter 243
For a science fiction movie, the post-production time is much longer than the shooting time, which is a very normal thing.
For the special effects of the movie, Shao Yu invited the best team in China. The entire team was almost contracted by this big job. Everyone gathered together to buckle the details frame by frame.
It took another five months to wait until the special effects of the movie were completed. In the end, it took a full year and a half for the whole movie to finally wait until it was released.
In the year after the divestment, Pan Hui took the withdrawn 10 million and invested in a web drama, and finally recovered 20 million.
Because of this investment, Pan Hui’s situation within the Dingsheng Group has slightly improved.
“Fortunately, I ran fast. They tossed a movie for so long. When it was released, the day lily was cold.” Pan Hui said to the assistant angrily.
The assistant immediately boasted: “President Pan, you are really strategizing. I heard that this movie has invested a total of 200 million yuan. If it is true and does not run, it is estimated that we will have to invest another 10 million yuan, then it will be a big loss.”
Pan Hui looked leisurely, and then said disdainfully: “Science fiction movies? Only foreign sci-fi movies have ever come in to kill randomly. There are no great sci-fi movies in China. They are back, and they have to choose the summer file. I think it will be right away. The piece of armor that is about to be killed will not be left.”
The summer vacation has always been a serious fight, and Dingsheng Entertainment has also released a movie this time. It has invested in a movie by a major director, which accounts for a small share.
There are a lot of big names in this movie, and several leading actors are taken out individually, all of which can carry the box office individually, so Dingsheng Entertainment is full of confidence in this movie.
At this time, the studio also began to release the first trailer of the movie.
As soon as the trailer came out, it immediately received a lot of praise.
“Uuuu, domestic science fiction films are really a lifetime.”
“It feels like this trailer is not bad at all compared to those foreign blockbusters.”
In addition to praise for special effects, there are many other voices.
“Is there a character like Zhao Wen in the original book? Doesn’t the movie all have magical changes?”
“Domestic science fiction films, it is estimated that all the good special effects are in the trailer.”
Such voices came and went one after another, and the studio did not take the initiative to explain. Even Shao Yu, this time, did not stand up to these people who looked like a navy army.
“I withdrew at the time because I felt that the script had changed too much, which was completely different from the “Galactic Mission” I had imagined in my heart. I am a fan of the author. I was really angry when I watched Shao Yu do his own way on the set and did not respect the author at all. “Pan Hui said to the reporter.
Reporters came to interview the bigwigs in the entertainment industry why they withdrew their capital. Others did not receive them because they were unwilling to offend more people. Only when it reached the peak of entertainment, the interview with Pan Hui went unimpeded.
To the reporter’s question, Pan Hui also answered very neatly, without concealing the meaning at all, pouring out what he knew, whether it was true or what he had guessed.
The media has always been pursuing enthusiasm, and it is too late to be happy about Pan Hui’s revelations like pouring beans in a bamboo tube.
Soon an article appeared on the Internet: “Shocked! The reason for the “Galactic Mission” investors withdrawing capital was actually because…”
Because “The Mission of the Galaxy” is about to be released, and the publicity is spreading across the country in full swing, this article was immediately republished as soon as it came out.
In this article, starting with Pan Hui’s interview, it exposes the real situation of the filming crew of “Mission of the Galaxy”. Yu’s oppression is totally miserable.
The Weibo of Shao Yu and the original author Fang Xiaodao fell immediately.
Shao Yu’s Weibo is full of curses, calling him a tyrant and disrespecting others.
On Fang Xiaodao’s Weibo, most people were tweeting the same sentence: “Oh, if you are kidnapped, you will blink.”
Fang Xiaodao didn’t expect his fans to speak like this, and suddenly felt a little bit dumbfounded. Soon he sent a Weibo to refute the rumors.
On his Weibo, he was extremely affirmed for the director Shao Yu, and even repeatedly stated that he looked forward to working with Shao Yu again.
It’s a pity that his heartfelt remarks were not accepted by fans.
“No author will tolerate his own work being arbitrarily altered, saying that these changes were made by him, and he must have been intimidated by Shao Yu.”
Such conspiracy theories commented endlessly, Fang Xiaodao explained repeatedly, but no one listened to him at all, and all thought he was kidnapped.
It is not the first time that Fang Xiaodao has sold the copyright of his works, but getting along with Shao Yu is the happiest time of all collaborations. Seeing that the description is getting darker with fans, Fang Xiaodao immediately called to apologize to Shao Yu.
This middle-aged man obviously lacked a solution to these things. Because of the nervousness on the phone, he was afraid that Shao Yu would misunderstand him and apologized several times.
“It’s okay, Brother Fang, these people are not all your fans, so it is normal for you to say nothing about them.” Shao Yu explained.
Fang Xiaodao spent most of the time writing, and didn’t know much about things on the Internet. He was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and asked, “Is this really the case?”
Shao Yu soothed and said, “Yes, most of them are naval forces, specializing in rhythm. Don’t take it too seriously.”
Fang Xiaodao felt relieved when he heard the words, but even so, he still apologized to Shao Yu.
After hanging up, Yu Xiaowen leaned over and said, “These people are not navy soldiers, most of them are live fans.”
Shao Yu nodded and said, “Although he is a fan, there is no need to put the pot on his head.”
After all, Fang Xiaodao doesn’t mix in the entertainment industry and does not have an agent, so naturally he doesn’t know anything about fan management.
Moreover, these fans are the ones who resisted the most before the film was released. When the film is released, it may be the most active tap.
“The movie quality is there, there is no need to be afraid of these keyboard guys.” Shao Yu said confidently.
Yu Xiaowen is not as confident as Shao Yu.
He also watched this movie. To be honest, after watching it again, he only thought it was amazing, but the whole person was still dizzy and obviously didn’t fully understand it.
I really want him to say that the only thing I can tell is that the story is very touching, the special effects are bursting, and there are tears and laughs, but the connotation of the movie is completely incomprehensible.
Therefore, he is not as confident as Shao Yu in this movie.
Shao Yu did not continue to explain, but said: “Even if you can’t make a lot of money, the studio will not lose too much. Don’t be too anxious.”
Yu Xiaowen had no confidence in recovering the cost. Hearing Shao Yu’s words, he was afraid that Shao Yu was under too much pressure. He comforted: “Even if you lose, it’s not a big deal. The studio has made enough money.”
Shao Yu knew that he was comforting himself, so he didn’t sneer up.
The public opinions on the Internet are all obsessively watching the movie. People in the whole studio are waiting eagerly for the movie to be released at this time, so as to slap those people in the face.
On June 20th, the movie will be screened.
The response of the click image is good, but even if the media are unanimously optimistic, there are still some conspiracy theories that Shao Yu bought the media.
On June 21, the film premiered.
Most of the people who bought the tickets first were book fans of Fang Xiaodao.
Although many book fans shouted fiercely for resistance, when the movie is released, they will not give up, and they will have to enter the movie theater to die.
At this time, Zhao Xiaotong and her boyfriend were standing at the cinema to check the tickets. The boyfriend was full of apologies and said: “You might be bored with me watching science fiction movies.”
Zhao Xiaotong shook his head when he heard the words, and said, “I am also a fan of Shao Yu, so I think I’m here to support idols.”
After hearing this, Zhao Xiaotong’s boyfriend just wanted to slander Shao Yu, but because his girlfriend is a fan, he could only hold back the words, but he still muttered in his heart, thinking that Shao Yu is a high school student and knows what Sci-fi movies.
During this year, Zhao Xiaotong gradually reduced her contact with her family because she learned a crying skill. Every time she called from home, after listening to her mother’s request, she immediately cried and begged for money from her family.
The family also counted on her to make money, so naturally they would not respond to her daughter’s call for help.
After hearing her mother say: “You don’t know how to sell if you have no money? Why do you have to drag the family down”, Zhao Xiaotong completely gave up.
After not having to pay the family every month, Zhao Xiaotong changed his residence again. Although the room was still small, it was completely different from the cramped house before.
After changing to a better place, Zhao Xiaotong also followed Shao Yu’s financial management in his spare time, and began to prepare for the Zhuhui exam.
In the process of preparing for the exam, she met her boyfriend who was also preparing for the exam.
At this time, the two entered the movie theater together. Before the movie was played, the movie theater always played the trailer of the upcoming movie.
Among them, there is a trailer for another science fiction film “New Man”.
Because of Shao Yu’s idol, “Mission of the Galaxy”, the boyfriend did not dare to complain. At this time, facing the trailer of “New Man”, the boyfriend finally made a grievance.
“This kind of trailer can be seen at a glance that the essence is all in the trailer. It is estimated that the special effects shots in the movie are all concentrated here. These characters are all non-existent in the original work. It is a pity that the knife has written such a good thing. “The boyfriend gushed.
Zhao Xiaotong couldn’t help but nodded and said, “Yes, most of the domestic science fiction movies are for money.”
The boyfriend next to her was recognized, and his eyes immediately brightened. He felt that his girlfriend was really insightful. He almost wanted to be in line with a curse of “Galactic Mission”, but Zhao Xiaotong’s next words made him shut up.
“My Shao Yu’s movie will definitely not be like this.” Zhao Xiaotong said very seriously, as if he was the purest fan of the brain.
Simply, her boyfriend’s desire to survive is overwhelming. Although she does not approve of Shao Yu, she does not dare to refute his girlfriend.
Soon the theater went dark.
The two closed their mouths together, and both looked at the movie screen seriously.
After watching the ending, the male protagonist, as the savior of mankind, mistakenly thought that he had been abandoned by mankind because of the traitor’s instigation and separation.
Then because of his special talent, he became a member of the alien civilization.
But in the end, the movie only revealed that the male lead was surrounded by aliens and was worshipped as a new king, but he did not continue to shoot. Now he plans to shoot a sequel.
“Fang Xiaodao is amazing!” Zhao Xiaotong said.
“Director Shao has an idea!” boyfriend shouted.
The boy and girl friends looked at each other, their eyes were full of excitement, and they were full of admiration for each other’s idols.
“I really want to see Yuan.” Zhao Xiaotong said. This is not the first time she has watched a science fiction movie, but it is the first time she has been so shocked.
The humanistic atmosphere conveyed in this movie made her feel very cordial, not at all that made her feel full of barriers like those foreign blockbusters in the past.
“Shao Yu can actually direct the show, but unfortunately he doesn’t make many movies.” The boyfriend said very regretfully.
“You can go to see “Flying Dragon Order” and “Veteran’s Medal”, both movies should be watched by a macho!” Zhao Xiaotong was happy Amway.
Because of a movie, Zhao Xiaotong only feels that the relationship with her boyfriend seems to have gotten closer again.
“The box office came out on the first day, 80 million yuan.” Yu Xiaowen received this data, his face was full of joy.
Originally, he was ready for the movie, but now although there is no premiere of more than 100 million, but the start is not bad.
“If you take this achievement as your peak, it feels like it is a bit hanged to recoup the cost at the box office, but it is not difficult to earn all the money back with the follow-up video copyright.” Yu Xiaowen broke his fingers and made random calculations.
A total of 200 million yuan was invested in this movie, of which, except for Big Brother Shao, who invested 10 million yuan, all of them were completed by Citou Studio.
“The premiere will not be the peak, and there is still a lot of room for further development.” Shao Yu is still full of confidence.
Yu Xiaowen was skeptical, but soon things went differently than he thought.
I thought that 80 million was already the peak, but the next day the box office directly surpassed 100 million. As the Internet fermented, the results went up all the way, and by the end of the week, it directly exceeded 200 million.
“Science fiction is really the whole people?” Yu Xiaowen asked stupidly?
At this time, he was browsing the Internet for the reviews of this movie, most of them were praise, and occasionally a few words of Yin and Yang were strange, all of which were scolded by fans.
As if for the film’s achievements, Fang Xiaodao also took advantage of the trend to write an impression of tens of thousands of characters on Weibo.
It’s all about the experience that he and Shao Yu gained during the exchange.
After reading this thought, his fans really believe that Shao Yu has contributed so much to the successful adaptation of this movie.
Although this film has undergone a drastic adaptation compared to the original, the adaptation is done by the original author himself, and the core of the story has not changed. Although the plot is not understood, the film and the film are still in the same line.
And for those who really like this movie, the most important thing is not the plot, but the points that touched them in the original. At this time, they are all presented in the movie. Even compared to the original, the transition of the movie is more harmonious and more harmonious. Exciting, they naturally have no dissatisfaction.
Some people even clamored, suggesting that all of Fang Xiaodao should be handed over to Shao Yu for shooting, thinking that Shao Yu’s director and Fang Xiaodao’s adaptation are the golden partners in science fiction movies.
The special effects and adaptations that were criticized in advance have all become the highlights of the movie, and there are even many people crying for a sequel.
A large number of fans drove more people into the pit through tap water, and after more people entered the pit, with emotion, “there is such an excellent science fiction film in China,” and it drew more audiences into the cinema.
Relying on such verbal communication, the movie went viral in the summer.
A large number of movie fans spontaneously made two and three brushes, and the box office results in a single day were constantly refreshed.
Yu Xiaowen started his walking mode with wind as usual.
At this time, there were many people, but their intestines were all blue.
“Hey, why am I so weak in will?” Wu Jun beat his chest in the office at this time.
After watching the show for ten days, the box office had reached 1.5 billion, and Wu Jun hated himself for why he had no eyesight at the beginning, and decided that the two young men couldn’t make science fiction movies.
At that time, Shao Yu didn’t force Wu Jun’s investment. Wu Jun still felt that the Second Young Master was a bright person and would not cheat his own brother. Now it seems that the Second Younger is full of self-confidence, and he wants to teach someone like him who is not determined.
Wu Jun can only rejoice at this time. Fortunately, the young and old invested money only to tell him privately. People next to the company don’t know yet. If they really know, it is estimated that the spit stars of colleagues can drown him at this time.
The cell phone rang suddenly.
When Wu Jun saw the caller ID, he immediately burst into his heart.
“Mr. Shao…”
On the other end of the phone, Brother Shao had a gentle voice, and asked, “Shao Yu has taken you to make money again this time, and I’ll have to thank him when I look back.”
“Yes, yes, you are right.” Wu Jun hurriedly responded.
“How much did you vote for?” asked Big Brother Shao. He is now the president of the entire group. After explaining this matter, he didn’t ask more. Now that the movie is hot, he thinks of it.
I didn’t care about how much money I made when I made this call, but wanted to show off my good brother to his people.
At this time, Wu Jun was speechless and tearful. He said cautiously: “Just… just voted 10 million?”
Brother Shao was silent for three seconds after hearing this, and then asked, “So many people withdrew their capital. Didn’t you take the opportunity to make additional investments? Are you violating the situation?”
Wu Jun felt bitter. He listened to Shao Jin’s words and didn’t mean to blame Shao Yu at all. Obviously, he believed that it was all the fault of his subordinates.
“Mr. Shao, the second master said that he had enough money, so he didn’t ask for my investment. It’s really not that I didn’t add…” Wu Jun explained weakly.
Shao Jin sneered and said, “My brother, I know that he will refuse the help of others, but he will not refuse me. You must have shown something that made him unhappy!”
Listening to Shao Jin’s words of protecting his shortcomings, Wu Jun carefully reflected on it, but he did not dare to completely rule out his own mistakes, so he had to promise again and again: “Mr. Shao, don’t worry, next time the second master will make a movie, I will always add Investment will never make it difficult for him…”
Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Shao Jin: “You have invested so much, do you want to grab money from my brother?”
Wu Jun:…
At this time, he only felt that when he met Shao Jin, who was protecting his shortcomings, it seemed that he was either advancing or retreating.
“Forget it, I can’t count on you.” Shao Jin said.
Wu Jun’s heart burst, and soon he understood what Shao Jin meant. Shao Jin personally sent a personal airborne to Jinyu Entertainment, who was specifically responsible for the company’s film and television investment business in the entertainment industry.
Others didn’t understand Shao Jin’s intentions, but Wu Jun understood that Shao Jin sent a special person to support her younger brother.
After this experience, Wu Jun can be considered to understand thoroughly. He thought that Shao Yu was not involved in any group affairs and was in a situation of being completely marginalized in the rich. Now looking at the intentions of Shao Jin, the heir, it is obvious that this young master is in The Shao family is really worthwhile.
At the same time, at Top Entertainment, Pan Hui refreshed the real-time box office of the movie, with regrets written all over his face.
According to the current momentum of “Galactic Mission”, 5 billion at the box office at the time of the release does not seem to be a difficult task.
Five billion is divided by one-third. If you invest 10 million in, you can get back at least 70 to 80 million.
Pan Hui felt a pain in his heart when he thought of withdrawing capital early and losing not 10 million, but 50 to 60 million.
Pan Hui, who was in a slightly better situation in the company because of his investment in web dramas, just felt that everyone in the company was watching his jokes.
“Shao Yu really doesn’t disappoint.” Gu Yan is happy for Shao Yu, but also feels bitter in her mouth.
“Ayan, let’s go back and stab.” The agent said with a wry smile.
The agent who persuaded Gu Yan to leave at the time was the agent who wanted her to go back.
“Back? How to go back?” Gu Yan asked back.
The agent said, “You have been in the snow for more than a year, and Ning Xiaoyun is now in the front line… how long is this?”
Ning Xiaoyun succeeded in gaining a back-to-back with “The World of Usual”, and now she has become the female star with the highest box office performance in a single-person film in China because of the female second in “Galactic Mission”.
Ning Xiaoyun originally had a good audience, but because the “Little Sanmen” had a plummeting reputation in the world, she later relied on “Parallel World” to wash her face, and now she frequently brushes her face in Shao Yu’s movies, which gives people a very reliable feeling. a feeling of.
Although Citou Studio has produced only four works, all four of them are exquisite works, which gives everyone a feeling that “the production of Citou must be a high-quality product”.
Under this kind of public impression, Shao Yu knows that there is no need to seek a breakthrough, as long as he can maintain the original level, he can take the studio to thrive.
Because Gu Yan is unwilling to accept the unspoken rules, she is now like an invisible person in Dingsheng Entertainment, and Ning Xiaoyun, as her former colleague, can achieve such results only by starring in her own project. How can the agent not feel enthusiastic? .
Gu Yan turned on the phone at this time, and she seemed to randomly swipe to a circle of friends posted by an old colleague. She looked at the address above. After a long time, she made up her mind and said, “Is President Lin’s dinner tonight at Xinghai Hotel? ?”
When the agent heard this, his eyes lit up and he asked, “Ayan, have you finally figured it out?”
Gu Yan’s eyes flickered slightly, she didn’t dare to look at her agent directly, she just nodded and said, “What can be tolerated by others, what can’t I tolerate.”
Seeing that Gu Yan seemed to have completely resigned, the agent was overjoyed, thinking that his long persuasion was finally effective.
At night, the main personnel of the entire “Mission Galaxy” all came to the box on the top floor of Xinghai Hotel.
Now that the box office is selling big, Shao Yu is not a stingy person. Sun Li said that he would hold a celebration banquet, and soon Shao Yu invited all the main staff over.
Even Fang Xiaodao, who was not in the city, came over by plane.
“Director Shao, it would be nice if I knew you earlier. All my copyrights must be kept. If no one sells them, I will sell them to you.” Fang Xiaodao flushed with drink, obviously making him feel that this cooperation Very satisfied.
Shao Yu doesn’t like to drink, but he admires Fang Xiaodao very much, and he replied, saying, “I won’t mention the ones that are sold. I will buy the ones that haven’t been sold yet. As long as you want to sell, I will buy them.”
Shao Yu naturally admires this kind of author who works for love, and is therefore willing to continue to cooperate with him.
After three rounds of drinking, Shao Yu was almost drinking, and went out of the box door to breathe in the corridor.
He was standing on the top floor of the hotel and looking down, when the door of another box behind him was opened.
A girl in a white dress stumbled out.
The girl’s face was familiar, and Shao Yu raised her eyebrows slightly when she looked at her.
“Help me…” Gu Yan flushed all over, staggering towards Shao Yu.
Shao Yu could tell at a glance that Gu Yan’s condition was abnormal, but in the bottom of her heart, she felt something was wrong. She wanted to catch someone on her body, but after looking down at the soft carpet on the ground, she moved her steps slightly and turned her body sideways. , His mouth seemed to be caring, and he reminded him very seriously: “Be careful.”
Gu Yan’s legs were already weak, but because Shao Yu avoided her, she threw herself directly on the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
