At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 823 Don't Give Up

Back off?
Chen Hao was surprised and asked back: "What circle should I withdraw?"

Shen Xudong was puzzled: "...Aren't you going to be a teacher in Chinese opera?"

"...just a plan..."

"You don't want to be like Zhang Tielin and Xu Jinglei, do you?"

Chen Hao shook his head: "...I either don't do it, if I do, I will definitely devote myself to it!"

Zhang Tielin, dean of the Art College of Jinan University.

Of course, since taking over the position of the dean, Zhang Tielin has not given a few lectures at the school, and more often he still shows his face in activities as a propaganda role...

Xu Jinglei is also a teacher of Nortel...

I've never heard of her teaching at the school.

"...Besides, if I just want to be a teacher, I won't study for a graduate student. I can just ask the dean for an external certificate!"

Shen Xudong nodded; "Then I wish you success!"

"...Just because I'm going to teach doesn't mean I'm out of the circle, please let me know if you have a suitable script!"

"Our relationship... must be!"

Chen Hao glanced at him, and then said: "There is one more thing..."

"What are you talking about..."

"I want a baby!"

"What's the matter, you want to freeze eggs?" Shen Xudong replied casually, Chen Hao didn't speak, just stared at him, Xudong suddenly realized something, and shook his head decisively: "No..."

"why not?"

"I never thought about getting married!"

"I haven't thought about it...but I must have a child."

Shen Xudong: "That won't work, if I have children, they must be aboveboard!"

Come up with children, is that still entertainment?Wouldn't that be a dad article?

……

Chen Hao stayed in Bangkok for five days, and then went home to celebrate the New Year.

Shen Xudong did not agree to her request...

How should I put it, it's not that he is reluctant to let his art sprout, but... knowing that it is impossible for him to form a family with his senior sister, it is better not to influence her.

Senior sister is 34 this year and has a bunch of suitors!

After his persuasion, the senior sister also figured it out, otherwise, Shen Xudong would not dare to shoot directly...

Chen Hao left, and "Tang Detective" continued to shoot.

Shen Xudong is very busy every day - after all, with a crew of hundreds of people, this movie does not have many special effects, it all depends on photography and lighting...

Then as a director, he must direct or participate in...

Even though it is already very busy, there is still a steady stream of news about the mainland film market...

It is nothing more than "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows", "Mission: Impossible 4", and "Journey to the Center of the Earth 2: The Mysterious Island" successively ruled the market.

"I Do" released by Tianmei was first squeezed by "Mission: Impossible 4" and later suppressed by "Journey to the Center of the Earth 2: The Mysterious Island". The box office stopped at 9000 million...

Valentine's Day release eh...

Of course, this result is already very good in the field of domestic films, 1000 million more than the star-studded "Love"!
The company is very glad that there is no other film - "When a Man is in Love"...

Compared with "I Do", "When a Man is in Love" is a movie produced by the company's main control. "I Do" is jointly produced by the company and the Forbidden City Films. Sun Zhou.

Withdrawal for one month.That is "When a Man is in Love" in March. The problem is that the March schedule is cold...

The idea of ​​the company is to refund another month...

But in April, there are "Titanic 4D", "Super Battleship", "Wrath of the Gods"...

Shen Xudong definitely doesn't want to fight "Titanic 3D"!
You must know that the current movie-watching group is the post-85s and post-90s. "Titanic" is the first Hollywood blockbuster that many people know, and the emotional value lies here.

What's more, theaters are in line with Hollywood blockbusters...

——The ratio of revenue sharing among all parties involved in imported blockbuster films is internationally accepted as 35% for the producer, 17% for the distributor, and 48% for the exhibitor.

Of course, China has its own national conditions.

China Film Corporation can get about 15.5% of the box office of imported films, and after deducting 5% of the film special fund and 3.3% of taxes, the production company, that is, the Hollywood blockbuster, will receive 25% of the box office.

The share ratio of the theater chain is the same as that of the Chinese film...

That's right, offline competition at the same level!

Therefore, theaters like to enlarge movies, movies with stars or famous directors, because there are more audience traffic and more benefits!
Pulling back, Shen Xudong directly requested that "When a Man is in Love" be released in early March.

If you can't beat "Titanic", can you still beat "Alien Battlefield"?
……

"Thirteen Hairpins" was screened in Berlin, and the reputation was not very good.

Many foreign media claimed: 'We cannot feel the convincing power of historical facts from movies! '

Some German media said: ""Thirteen Hairpins" only expresses the story from the perspective of the Chinese, which is somewhat one-sided and does not include more viewpoints and angles, which makes people uncomfortable in the process of watching the movie. '

It is estimated that Zhang Yimou is quite depressed. I have told the story from Bell's perspective. Why is it still from the Chinese perspective?

Again, the whole world knows a lot about the Jewish Holocaust during World War II, but it knows very little about the Nanjing Massacre.

Because China is a weak country and has been on the edge of the world for a long time, most of the time, no one cares about the history of a weak country!

It's as if many Chinese don't care about Auschwitz...

Moreover, if Westerners can clearly distinguish where China and Japan are on the world map, they are already above the average score.

Expect them to speak up?

As for the sale of copyright that Shen Xudong is most concerned about, Chen Xi on the other end of the phone said: "The sales are not very good, not even comparable to "Xia Lan" and "Green Forest Adventure"..."

"Listen to them, they don't like "Thirteen Hairpins"..."

"..."Xia Lan" was sold in 105 countries, and "Green Forest Adventure" was also sold in 106..."

"Our price is low! How much does Disney cost to make an animation, ranging from 10 million to as much as [-] to [-] million US dollars. If the Eastern European market or France wants to buy "Kung Fu Panda", it will not only be expensive, but also share the bill with others. But our Movies, they can buy the copyright for [-] US dollars, why not do it? And there is no cultural discount for cartoons, they are all suitable for young audiences, and they are especially easy to sell."

"Director Zhang... seems quite calm."

Shen Xudong probably understood: "Okay, then go get busy..."

"Xudong... Zhang Weiping came out..."

"Who?" Shen Xudong didn't realize it, Zhang Weiping, Weiping Bryant, the basketball commentator...

"Zhang Weiping in the new picture!"

"Come out, he hasn't signed a contract with director Zhang Yi..."

Chen Xi whispered: "I'm worried that he will break the news about Director Zhang!"

"...What is there to worry about with this thing? Have you paid the fine?"

"handed in…"

Shen Xudong didn't quite understand, there is nothing to worry about with this thing: "That's fine, Director Zhang is not a big star, and having a child in a hidden marriage doesn't affect the character design..."

Chen Xi explained: "We discussed with the public relations team and decided to let us break the news..."

"Then let's talk about it... By the way, let's put it a little bit worse..."

"Miserable? How miserable?"

"Sister, there are a lot of super students in the circle, which ones are not handled properly. Minorities, Hong Kong cadastres, American citizens... There are many ways. Why didn't Director Zhang handle it properly? Let this matter be directed to Zhang Weiping, By the way, praise Director Zhang for his patriotism and unwillingness to emigrate... Public opinion is something that needs to be guided!"

"...and one more thing."

"you say!"

"Zhou Dongyu, are you going to vigorously cultivate it?"

"...I told you all, I don't care about the artist's agent!"

"What I mean is, if you don't want to cultivate her vigorously, I will transfer her out, so as not to delay it!"

"Someone asked you for her?"

Chen Xi nodded: "Yes, Du Yang..."

Shen Xudong thought for a while: "Okay, you can transfer out, by the way, Dou Xiao will stay for me, I am very optimistic about him."
