At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 816

After chatting for a while, Shen Xudong sent them away.

Oh, Chen Sicheng said that his "BJ Love Story" wanted to use the love stories of five couples of different ages to tell the fable of a person's lifelong love, showing love in all ages and all aspects.

Shen Xudong...it doesn't matter, tell him directly: "You can do whatever you want, you are the chief director!"

Chen Sicheng is famous, he is different from the older generation of filmmakers, he belongs to the market!
The popularity of the older generation of directors was not based on the box office, but on the awards. It was not a way to please the public, and the path dependence was difficult to change.

Zhang Yimou, Chen Kai and Jiang Wen are all like this!
"Let the Bullets Fly" has a wide audience mainly because of its humor. Even if there are so-called profound metaphors or thoughts, it will not affect the public to watch it as a comedy.

Profound is used to applaud, funny is used to sell well, and the box office success depends on being interesting rather than sophisticated art.

As for Director Feng...

Probably because I shot too many commercial films, I wanted to be elegant and artistic, so I started the journey of pretending...

As a result, the pretense was unsuccessful...

Chen Sicheng has no idea of ​​self-expression yet...

He is more like a businessman than a film artist. In fact, many domestic filmmakers are not art first, but "foreigners" art first...

……

The Lunar New Year file is still in full swing. After the release of "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate", the market response was very good. The box office on the second day was 4100 million. On the third day, that is, December 12, the single daily revenue exceeded 25 million...

The box office exceeded [-] million in three days!

"Thirteen Hairpins" was naturally affected, but...not much, after all, it has a good reputation, and theaters are willing to arrange films...

In two days of Christmas, the box office of "Thirteen Hairpins" was 6500 million, and the total box office successfully exceeded 5 million!
Xu Jinglei's "Intimate Enemy" was quite miserable. Under the pressure of two blockbuster films, the film schedule and media promotion were at a disadvantage. After three days of release, the box office has not yet reached 2000 million...

It is estimated that it is impossible to exceed [-] million!
In addition, "Speed ​​​​Angels" was also released, and Tang Wei appeared on the screen again...

However, in this time and space, it is unlikely that Tang Wei will become popular—"BJ Meets Seattle" has been cut off by Shen Xudong, and he is going to play it for fans Yang...

Fan Yang, whether it's looks or temperament, is obviously more suitable than Tang Wei to play the mistress!

Oh, yesterday, Shen Xudong went to Hong Kong. He is going to transfer to Bangkok from Hong Kong. He will mainly discuss the development of PPTV with Zhong Lifang...

When he woke up in the morning, Shen Xudong was a little dazed...

Really confused, he was...was awakened...

He also knew the person holding him, and he was very familiar with him——Yang Tianbao!
Since he was here to talk about work, why did Yang Tianbao show up?

It's not a company...

Besides, didn't Tianbao get on good terms with Brother Xiaoming, I...too immoral!

But...for letting her stop, I am sorry for myself...and for Tianbao's hard work...

Noticing that Shen Xudong raised his head, Yang Tianbao shut up: "You're awake..."

"...um... why are you here?"

"I sent you back to the hotel, you don't remember... let's not talk about it, I sat down!"

Shen Xudong cooperated subconsciously...

Morning exercise is actually the best way to lose fat, because it is on an empty stomach, the blood sugar and insulin levels in the human body are low, and it mainly burns fat as energy, which helps to lose weight...

……

After the exercise, Shen Xudong watched Tianbao take a pill before going to wash up...

My mind gradually came to my senses. Yesterday, Huang Baiming entertained him warmly and specially called Shi Nansheng. The three of them chatted about New Art City. Huang Baiming mentioned that the "007" series can last for a long time. no…

Of course Shen Xudong knows, because the IP of "Best Partner" has been abolished!

In 97, the classic series IP of "Best Partner" fell into the hands of Qian Jiale.And Qian Jiale, who took the position of director for the first time, also gathered a lot of big names to film "Best Partner: Drunk Street Partner".

"Best Partner: Drunken Street Partner" is actually the sixth "Best Partner", and it has been 1989 years since the previous one, which was "New Best Partner" in 8.

During these 8 years, "Bald" Mai Jia and "King Kong" Xu Guanjie have faded out of the film world one after another.

Chin Ka Lok decided to let Leung Chiu Wai and Alan Tam replace Mak and Xu as the new "Best Partner" candidates.

Now that the actors have been changed, the mode of the story has to be changed as well.In the previous five "Best Partners", the thief "King Kong" and the detective "Mai Jia" have always joined forces to solve strange cases repeatedly.And this "Best Partner: Drunken Street Partner" shows us a "story of gang fights".

Then, the IP of "Best Partner" was completely ruined, and the word-of-mouth and box office both dropped. This "Best Partner: Drunken Street Partner" also became the last sequel of the "Best Partner" series.

After "Best Partner: Drunken Street Partner", Chin Ka Lok, with the support of Sammo Hung, acted as the director for the movie "No Problem 2".

The dismal results after the release of "No Problem 2" stopped the "No Problem" series.

The successive failures of the two works made "Sequel Terminator" Qian Jiale realize his lack of ability in directing.

After "No Problem 2", Qian Jiale returned to the position of action director and gave up his career as a director.

However, Golden Harvest has been very supportive of him, and has collaborated with "Fighting the Ring", "The Gladiator at the Funeral", "Goodbye Young and Dangerous", and this year there is also a "The Heyday of Young and Dangerous", which should be released in the mainland...

Pull back, "Best Partner"...

Shen Xudong is actually not sure about bringing this IP back to life...

However, he agreed to give it a try, and then Huang Baiming called Wu Qianyu and Yang Tianbao—they are still actors under Dongfang Film, but next year, Yang Tianbao should go north.

It stands to reason that Yang Tianbao doesn't have to come!
She had already caught up with Brother Xiaoming, but she still came, and took the initiative to send Shen Xudong back to the hotel...

Oh, Shen Xudong was happy for a while, drank two glasses of red wine, and then passed out.

Belongs to Fragment Records!

……

"My afternoon flight is going to Bangkok!"

"Is it shooting a new movie?"

"Um…"

In the restaurant, Shen Xudong chatted with Tianbao normally while eating, and cared about her career by the way: "I heard that you are going to sign with Huayi?"

"Well, Brother Xiaoming introduced..." Yang Tianbao was very happy: "I can make a lot of money soon... I can pay you back the money I owe you!"

"...I'm not short of money," Shen Xudong shrugged: "I never intend to take back the money I lent out!"

Tianbao also borrowed money from him. He bought a house and had to repay the mortgage. The house price in Hong Kong is too high, and the mortgage is also high. The profession of celebrity is not stable. Yang Tianbao is a newcomer and often lacks money. Shen Xudong simply lent it to her. 300 million Hong Kong dollars...

"Then I have to pay it back..."

"Let's talk about it when you have money..."

Shen Xudong replied casually, and then noticed that Tianbao seemed to have something to say, so he asked directly, "What's the matter with you?"

Yang Tianbao said: "I heard that your company is going to do a reality show, can I join?"

"Reality show? What reality show?"

"It seems to be called "Let's Time Travel". I heard that Brother Xiaoming was invited..."

Shen Xudong was puzzled, and took out his mobile phone: "Let me ask them... The company that produces variety shows is called Tianmei Entertainment, which belongs to our subsidiary company. I usually don't care much about these..."
