Chapter 568

"Forget it! Hey, it's not nice to meet people!" Lin Xiao said depressedly.

Xiao Jie couldn't help laughing, she also thought it was quite fun, but she didn't expect Lin Xiao to be so good in all aspects, but it turned out that taking care of the baby was so fun.

"So, you should go back to work. This is what you are good at. Our company has almost no film projects recently." Xiao Jie said with a smile and wept.

"By the way, has the box office of "To Live" come out?" Lin Xiao suddenly remembered that "To Live" seemed to be released.

"I remember telling you." Xiao Jie said more and more speechlessly.

"Is there?" Lin Xiao was a little confused.

"Well, "To Live" ended up with a total box office of 6600 million. The film and television database scored 8.9 points." Although Xiao Jie was speechless at Lin Xiao's bewilderment, she still said.

"Sixty-six million, doesn't it mean that the money was paid back only by the box office share?" Lin Xiao was really surprised.

You must know that "To Live" is a literary film. Although it is not the kind of unintelligible literary film, it is also a very depressing film. I did not expect to get a box office of more than 6000 million.

Don't think that the box office of more than 6000 million seems very low. In fact, compared to a film like "To Live", it is already considered very high.

Audiences in Huaguo would rather watch bad commercial blockbusters than go to literary films, because at least you can understand bad films, scold them, and make complaints about them, but literary films are so difficult to watch. I don't understand, it's so easy to be swarmed by some emperors who understand literature and art.

It seems that if you don't understand it, you don't understand art.

Therefore, in China, it is really difficult for literary films to be bought by anyone.

""Alive" is very good in the foreign market, especially in France and Germany. It also sells well in Southeast Asia. So, generally speaking, "Alive" is not profitable, but it is not losing money." Xiao Jie said with a smile.

To be honest, she was also surprised. You must know that although the production cost of "To Live" was less than 3000 million, but the investment of nearly 5000 million was added to the publicity and distribution, but in the end, it did not lose money, which is very, very amazing .

Of course, the word-of-mouth of "To Live" is really good, even if it is an audience that can't stand it, few people will belittle this film.

Many literary and artistic films are often complained by the public. The main reason is that in many cases, some literary and artistic film directors like to play tricks, make the plot messy, and call it art.

Although "To Live" is also a literary film, the plot is very clear. Although it is very depressing, so depressing that many people can't see the ending at all, but they don't think this film is a bad film.

"Also, recently the company is basically spending, but has very little income. Besides, our company doesn't have any other big projects except for the two TV dramas we are filming. So, boss Lin, director Lin, Lin Film King, shouldn't it be time for you to give the company a bite?" Xiao Jie looked at Lin Xiao and said.

"At the very least, you should keep the habit of making one movie and one album a year, right?" Xiao Jie added.

"It's too tiring to make a movie, so this time I plan to make a TV series, um, the more relaxed one, what do you think?" Lin Xiao said while rubbing his chin.

"TV series?" Although Xiao Jie was a little surprised, she nodded and said, "Which novel do you plan to adapt?"

"Fiction? No, no, no, I've said it all, I want to play a little more relaxed. I'm afraid the adaptation of my novels to TV series is more tiring than filming, right? So this time, we're making a low-budget urban drama." Lin Xiao said.

He still remembers that in the dream world, there was an interesting film that had been filmed for several seasons. The key point is that the film was simple, low-cost, and fun, but it was filmed several times in a row, and the results achieved were also excellent. Leverage!

And the movie in the dream world is said to be not completely original, but an imitation of a certain popular foreign drama that can still be a mess, so in this world, it is completely unique, and it will never compare Is it bad in the dream world?

Lin Xiao still remembers that the film was later made into a movie version, which sold out its feelings, but the box office turned out to be pretty good.

In fact, Lin Xiao is not short of movie scripts. There are too many in the system. The main reason is that making movies is really tiring, and it involves all aspects. In indoor sitcoms, it's a completely different story.

Moreover, this TV series is very fun, Lin Xiao wondered if he could make an all-star cameo together?

This is absolutely possible, um, and that guy Wang Bin can also be brought over to play a role.

Well, the main reason is that Lin Xiao wants to relax. If he is making a movie, how can he have time to go home and watch the baby?

"Small cost?" Xiao Jie frowned.

In fact, many film directors, especially successful film directors, are seldom willing to go back to make TV series, mainly because of the asymmetry.

Movie directors are obviously more forceful than TV drama directors.

Although Lin Xiao has only filmed "Dark War", he is definitely the number one director among the directors, and then he actually wants to go to film a TV series, which is fine, but it is still a small-budget TV series, this is not self-declination ?

"Small cost, how much is the budget?" Xiao Jie asked.

"1000 million, it should be enough." Lin Xiao thought for a while and said.

"1000 million? No, you, a director of 20 billion, went to shoot a TV series with a cost of 1000 million, are you sure it's okay?" Xiao Jie couldn't laugh or cry.

"Don't you think this is just a very good gimmick? The 20 billion director went to shoot a low-cost TV series without doing his job. Isn't the promotion of the new drama in place?" Lin Xiao said with a smile.

"Okay, as long as you're happy!" Xiao Jie was completely speechless.

Although what he said was correct, Xiao Jie was still somewhat defeated by Lin Xiao, but think about it, Lin Xiao's identity is not only a director or an actor, but also an investor and a boss. "Odd" is not the same as no one is optimistic about it, what is the result?
The brand value is working towards tens of billions.

And Lin Xiao often has some ideas that are different from ordinary people, but isn't this what makes him different from others?
"1000 million, how do you plan to shoot? The actors are not paid enough?" Xiao Jie asked again.

"How could it not be enough? It's a small cost. Of course, we won't invite those well-known actors. We are looking for newcomers. Aren't Yan Jue and Liu Xixi last time also newcomers? The effect of their performances may not be as good as Those big stars are bad." Lin Xiao didn't care.

For the film he wanted to make, ordinary stars might not be able to act, and famous stars might not be willing to play those roles.

Because once those characters are played, unless there are other very exciting characters, otherwise, it will be difficult to wash off the labels of those characters!
