Chapter 1121

This kind of thing is a matter of willing to fight and willing to suffer.

Shopping malls are like battlefields. Lin Xiao does have some friendship with Fan Wencheng, Yang Hao and others, but the friendship is not enough to give money to their company for free.

The previous time everyone took what they needed, Lin Xiao needed them to stand for "The Birth of an Actor", and they needed Lin Xiao's script, so Lin Xiao didn't make any restrictions on investment.

However, it is different now. For example, Fan Wencheng, he is very good, and he directly asked for the script, because although Fan Wencheng is not the director of the Peak Tower, in fact, to a certain extent, he is, because he is now It is tantamount to making a film for Lingxiao Pavilion.

The so-called fat and water don't flow into other people's fields, that's all!
Yang Hao also wanted to understand this point. Of course he knew that if he had a thick skin, maybe Lin Xiao might not be unable to agree, but the favor would be exhausted.

And as far as Yang Hao said, this is a conspiracy, and it is upright. It is useless if you know it, because this is Lin Xiao's advantage.

If you don't come, some people will come.

Not to mention that Lin Xiao's script can attract international directors, that is to say, Lin Xiao's script has not failed once, which is enough to make countless people flock to it.

At this point, it is no longer about reading scripts, but about people.

In fact, the several directors of "The Birth of an Actor" are of great concern to everyone. In addition, the press conference jointly held by the four major directors also caused a sensation.

Now, among the four, Fan Wencheng and Yang Hao have released their films, and they have achieved great success.

Although "Dangerous Couple" is not top-notch at the domestic box office, it also got a pretty good box office in North America, which is even more rare.

Although "Wu Shuang" has hit the streets in North America, this film is said to be Yang Hao's best work after "Infernal Affairs".

Although this is a spontaneous comment from the public, it is enough to show that sometimes a good story can also make a director.

Next came Qin Gang and Lin Xiao himself.

Qin Gang's accomplishments in comedy films are second to none in China. Cooperating with Lin Xiao, the No.1 screenwriter in China, is naturally a strong alliance, and the possibility of failure is really low. , not to mention.

However, what they didn't know was that Qin Gang's reaction was greater than Yang Hao's!
Because, comedies, many people know that it is really difficult for comedies to go abroad, because this stuff relies on laughs, but most of the time, comedies, even many comedies in Hollywood, are also popular in China. It's hard to be a blockbuster. It can be seen that comedy is really not that easy to break through.

In fact, in China, comedy films are very marketable, but on a global scale, there are almost no pure comedy films in the top ten films every year.

Of course, Qin Gang did not imagine that "Charlotte Annoyance" could really kill the world. This is impossible. "Charlotte Annoyance" can be said to be a fairly obvious domestic film. Teen comedies, yes, teen movies.

For this kind of film, the background is usually very important, because the most resonant thing in this kind of film is the place and era that everyone lived in.

But if you put it abroad, it may be crooked, and you can't understand what it is talking about.

Because the background is different and the environment is different, comedies are often more difficult to break through.

But seeing Fan Wencheng's film is sold all over the world, Qin Gang's heart became hot. He also wanted to be an international famous director, but he had never seen such an opportunity before, so since Lin Xiao can make Fan Wencheng's Movies are sold abroad, what about yourself?Is there any chance?
Achieving real comedy No.1?
To say that Qin Gang is definitely a well-deserved No.1 in the scope of domestic comedy directors, but that's all.

It's not that Qin Gang didn't try to switch to shooting other types of films in the past, but unfortunately, people only recognize his comedies, which restricts Qin Gang.

He is also very helpless, and not only the audience, but also other investors, as long as Qin Gang's movie, if it is a comedy, many people don't even care what the story is, and just vote for it.

Because Qin Gang's comedies are a symbol of big sales.

But if it's other types of movies, then someone has said that, in fact, Qin Gang has also made martial arts movies before, but unfortunately, it ended up on the street.

For this reason, Qin Gang finally went all the way to the dark in comedy movies.

You can disagree with Qin Gang's movies, thinking that his movies have no connotation and are all funny for the sake of being funny, but you can't deny that Qin Gang's movies can attract audiences to watch.

As long as it is directed at Qin Gang's name, the box office is guaranteed to be hundreds of millions, even if it is filmed for shit, people will watch it.

This is the brand effect of a great director.

Domestic movies are roughly divided into several categories. One is fan-oriented movies. These movies are usually directed by not well-known directors, but either the original works with script changes are very well-known, or they are led by traffic stars.

The first category is low-budget feature films. These types of films usually don’t have any big-name stars or directors, and they rely purely on script and story ideas, and this type of film is often the one that can make a big difference with a small amount.

Another category is special effects blockbusters. In this kind of movies, audiences usually go for the special effects, and the plot is second.

Then there are director-brand blockbusters. Domestic films that can create their own brands and use directors as publicity gimmicks are all big directors.

Such as Yang Hao, such as Lin Xiao, such as Qin Gang.

The movies of these people can often push up the box office records of Huaguo movies, but the same kind of movies are usually more demanding and demanding.

So, what Lin Xiao didn't expect was that he didn't wait for Yang Hao first, but Qin Gang first.

""Charlotte's Annoyance" hasn't been released yet, Director Qin, are you a little impatient?" Lin Xiao looked at Qin Gang dumbfoundedly and said.

"Hey, am I jealous? Although I like the script of "Charlotte Annoyance", I am not very worried about the box office, but this film, I still have self-knowledge. In foreign countries, maybe in Southeast Asia. I can do something, but don’t think about the European and American regions.” Qin Gang said carelessly.

"So, Brother Lin, to be honest, do you have any comedy scripts like "A Dangerous Couple"?" Qin Gang looked at Lin Xiao expectantly and asked.

"Director Qin, you also know that comedy movies are different from other movies. It's really hard to make breakthroughs in this kind of movies." Lin Xiao said with a wry smile.

"Others can't do it, but you, brother Lin, can do it for sure. You are a gold medal screenwriter, don't worry, as long as you come up with the script, I can lower the salary to shoot it. Brother Lin, I, Lao Qin, are getting old, so if you just pursue this little, you will fulfill me." Go." Qin Gang said with a cheeky look.
