Entertainment: The Road to an Actor Starting from a Villain

The 13 billion victory party turned into a 15 billion victory party in the blink of an eye.

Maybe Zhou Xuanlan didn't expect that the box office had increased so much before the celebration party was held.

The atmosphere on the Internet has also become very festive.

"Crazy Stone" can have a box office of 15 billion, which fully proves that Chinese films are developing towards a new stage.

What's more funny is that the last time they said that was because of Zhou Chen's "Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate".

It can be said that the two films that Zhou Chen participated in have brought Chinese films to a higher stage.

This is not empty talk. According to statistics, after "Crazy Stone" raised a billion dollars, in the film market, the proportion of investment in small-budget films directly doubled by dozens of times.

After all, "Crazy Stone" has created a miracle of exchanging 700 million for 15 billion at the box office. No capital will be indifferent to such a rate of return.

The expansion of the film investment market also indicates that in the next two years, a large number of Chinese-language films will be released.

Regardless of the quality of these movies, if the number increases, it is also a sign of progress!
According to analysis by industry insiders, the peak of "Crazy Stone" is only 15 billion, and there is no possibility of explosive growth.

But with the current result, Zhou Chen and the others are satisfied enough.

Especially Zhou Chen, he may be the biggest winner besides Zhou Xuanlan.

After all, he has 2% of the box office share, which is a real 3000 million!

Aside from what needs to be given to the company, he also has a profit of about 2000 million!
As long as there are a few more movies like this, it will be enough for Zhou Chen to pay off his debts.

The celebration party was finally held in the imperial capital. Although the headquarters of Sega Film and Television is located in the capital, the influence of the imperial capital is obviously higher.

The day of the celebration was mainly attended by various media.

The only thing that surprised Zhou Chen was that Liu Tianwang also came!

However, as the second largest investor in this movie, it is normal for him to appear here.

Seeing Liu Tianwang, Ning Hao felt a little excited and wanted to show off.

"Liu Tianwang, I did not disappoint your 300 million!"

Liu Tianwang nodded and said appreciatively:

"Of course! I hope that after this movie, you can make better movies~!"

He still admires Ning Hao very much. Not only did he invest 300 million, but he also expressed his willingness to play a cameo role in it.

It's a pity that because of the schedule conflict and Ning Hao felt a little blunt, he finally refused.

However, this does not affect the relationship between the two parties.

After a brief exchange with Ning Hao backstage, Liu Tianwang went straight to Zhou Chen and other actors.

Liu Tianwang's acting skills may not be the best, but he is very popular in the Xiangjiang film industry.

It's not that he is good, but that he has a high EQ and knows how to behave!

After seeing Zhou Chen and the others, he established a relationship with everyone with a few words.

Liu Tianwang can speak, and Huang Bo among the crowd can also speak and do things.

The relationship between everyone became proficient at once.

Liu Tianwang kept telling everyone that there is an opportunity to work together.

Everyone just thought it was a scene, so they didn't care, but when it was Zhou Chen's turn, Liu Tianwang looked him up and down, and suddenly said:
"Zhou Chen, I don't know if you have a schedule next year. I have a new movie here that I can recommend you to try!"

Zhou Chen was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Liu Tianwang to invite him to participate in the movie.

Although he is somewhat famous now, he is still far from a national idol like Liu Tianwang.

The king of flowing water, the iron Hua Tsai.

One can imagine Liu Tianwang's weight in the hearts of the audience.

Huang Bo's reaction was quicker, and he lightly touched Zhou Chen.

"Zhou Chen, no matter how excited you are, you can't be stunned!"

Zhou Chen came back to his senses, and then said:
"Brother Hua is willing to recommend me, of course I am willing to try!"

People outside the circle call Liu Tianwang Hua Zi, but as a junior in the circle, they naturally have to call Brother Hua, which is more polite.

Liu Tianwang nodded and said gently:

"This movie is still in preparation, and I just participated in it, and I don't have the right to make decisions.

"So I can only recommend you to audition, so~"

The film to be filmed in a year's time can be considered a big production, and the competition for roles is fierce.

Even if Liu Tianwang's network is very good, there is no way to directly bring Zhou Chen into the group.

If you want to participate, you still have to audition.

Zhou Chen understood what Liu Tianwang meant, and he was still very confident.

"Don't worry, Brother Hua, I will work hard."

As long as he plays the villain, Zhou Chen feels that he still has the strength to conquer the director.

After Liu Tianwang encouraged Zhou Chen, he also left.

In fact, he is still very busy. This time he came to the imperial capital not only to participate in the "Crazy Stone" celebration party, but also to participate in the promotion of the new movie.

Hearing that Liu Tianwang was going to promote a new movie, Huang Bo and others were very excited.

"Brother Hua is talking about the new film directed by Zhang, "The Great Wall"?"

"This is a big production, costing 1.5 million yuan, co-produced by China and the United States!"

"It's [-] million U.S. dollars! My dear, how much box office will it take to make it back!"

1.5 million US dollars, a total of more than one billion Huaxia coins!

This kind of large investment has never been seen in the history of Chinese film.

Even in the beautiful country, such investment is rare.

Of course, the box office investment may be just a gimmick, and the real investment is not that big.

Even if the one billion investment is cut in half, it is still rich.

But [-] million is amazing enough.

Generally speaking, if a movie wants to make money, its box office must be three times the investment.

In other words, "The Great Wall" must have 15 billion to be considered a good loss.

30 billion at the box office is considered profitable.

"Crazy Stone" has just broken the box office record in China, and Zhang wants to double this record. His ambition is not small.

At the end of the conversation, Liu Tianwang also revealed a piece of information that Zhang had already submitted "The Great Wall" to the Cannes Film Festival in order to promote the film.

This surprised Zhou Chen a bit. As the temple of art films, the Cannes Film Festival has always preferred topical or artistic films.

Commercial films are rarely accepted for main competition.

Of course, people like Quentin who combine commerciality and artistry are also possible.

But "The Great Wall" seems to be difficult to do this as an out-and-out commercial film.

However, "The Great Wall" has an advantage over Zhou Chen's "Chasing the Murderer", that is, its protagonist is white.

This is very conducive to participating in European and American film festivals.

After talking for a while, Liu Tianwang left, while the rest of the crew entered the carnival stage.

Until the next morning, Zhou Chen received a call from Zhou Xuanlan.

"I remembered what the third thing was!"
