Backtracking to the Age of Literature and Art

Chapter 541 Andy, I'm Liu Weiqiang
September NO.13, the day after the announcement of the domestic release of "Bring Her Eyes", is also a Saturday.

Yu Hua and the others moved a square table to play cards under the shade of a tree in front of the apartment. Yu Dong and Cheng Yanqiu went back to Luoyuan. In broad daylight, gather a crowd to gamble."

Bi Feiyu squeezed the cards and glanced at Yu Dong: "Just now your phone rang twice, but no one answered."

"Is it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the phone rang upstairs. It was his home phone.

Mo Yan said with a smile: "Really?"

Seeing Mo Yan imitating his own tone, Yu Dong curled his lips and ran upstairs.

The call was connected, and it was Zhang Yimou.

"It's really hard to call you." Zhang Yimou complained.

Yu Dong smiled and said, "Don't you have my mobile phone number?"

"Yes, I have your mobile phone number. The question is, can you get through with your mobile phone?"

"Can't get through?" Yu Dong took out his phone and looked at it, it turned out that the battery was out.

The current mobile phones are much smaller than previous years, and the battery life is better, but they are still not enough, and the battery will run out after frequent use.

"The battery life is not good, I will ask Motorola to improve it later."

Yu Dong just made a casual joke, but Zhang Yimou took it seriously, "If you want to mention it, let me mention this button by the way, it's too small, it's troublesome to press it."

"puff--"

"why are you laughing?"

"I'm not laughing. I'll tell them about your opinion later. Why did you call me? You also made the previous two calls?"

"I typed it. Mr. Guo's "The Mansion Gate" will start filming in a few months, do you want to play around?"

"What are you playing?"

"Are you going to play a role? I heard that there are quite a few people, including Jiang Wen and Li Xuejian."

"I can't, I'm different from you." Yu Dong laughed.

"It doesn't matter. Although you have no acting experience, you can play a small guest role without any acting skills."

"You misunderstood me. I mean I'm too good-looking to be a guest star. It's too distracting."

"I bother!"

Yu Dong laughed: "I'm just joking with you. I'll go and see when the filming starts. It's fine as a cameo. I really don't have this talent."

"That's fine." Zhang Yimou didn't try to persuade him any more. He intended to take Yu Dong to join in the fun. As long as Yu Dong went, it didn't matter whether he played a role or not: "I'll tell you when the filming starts."

"I still want you to tell me?"

"Hey, look at my brain, this scene was dropped by Shenkong, you are a big sponsor, and you know better than anyone else when it will be filmed."

Yu Dong smiled, and asked again, "How about "Not One Less"?"

"The film is still being cut."

"Slow enough."

Zhang Yimou chuckled: "Slow work can produce fine work."

"The editor is not you. If you have time, come to Jinyi and tell you about "Golden Dreamland"."

Zhang Yimou murmured, "Okay, I'll keep an eye on this side for a while, and I'll go find you when it's almost there."

Yu Dong had told Zhang Yimou about "Golden Dreamland" before, and Zhang Yimou was a little hesitant at that time.

Although Zhang Yimou also had the idea of ​​transforming into a commercial film, he was really at a loss when he stepped into Hollywood all of a sudden.

However, after this period of adjustment, he also calmed down and didn't have so many worries.

Since Yu Dong believes in him, let's do it.Whether you do a good job or a bad job, you don't know until you do it.

……

After hanging up Zhang Yimou's phone, Yu Dong was about to go back downstairs to watch Yu Hua and the others play cards, when he turned around, the phone rang again behind him.

He thought Zhang Yimou forgot to say something, picked up the phone and was about to speak when he heard Yu Yu's voice.

"Boss, is your phone turned off?"

"Oh, the balance, the phone is out of battery, what can you do to me?"

"I have good news for you. The North American box office of "Men in Black" has reached 8000 million U.S. dollars, surpassing "Jurassic Park 2" and climbing to the top of the annual North American box office. However, the global box office has just passed [-] million, which is a little short of "Jurassic Park". Of course, there is still hope to surpass it."

"Well, it's fine."

"Men in Black" can get this box office, which has already met expectations. As for whether the global box office can surpass "Jurassic World 2", Yu Dong actually doesn't care anymore.

So what if it exceeds, a little more money in the account, but still can't get the top of this year's global box office list.

Since you can't get the first place, it doesn't make much difference whether you are second or third.

Compared with "Men in Black", Yu Dong cared more about another movie.

"How is the box office of "Fatal Identity"? It has been three weeks."

Yu Yu said: "The data I got is that the box office has already reached more than 5000 million. It may be difficult to hit the [-] million mark in the future."

"What about other regions?"

"It hasn't been released in other regions yet."

"Well, I see."

"Fatal Identity" has already won more than 5000 million at the box office, and it will be more than [-] million if it is added in other regions.

The cost of this movie is only 2000 million U.S. dollars. To achieve such a result, Universal has already made a lot of money.

At that time, for this movie, Deep Space only received 150 million US dollars in copyright fees for film and television adaptation and 30 in screenwriting fees.

But there was no way around it. At that time, the company was small and there was not much liquidity, so it was not easy to get involved.

At that time, the 180 million yuan did not go into Yudong's account, but was directly injected into the company, which helped the company solve many problems. From this perspective, it was not a loss.

Of course, if we talk about it now, even if Deep Space doesn’t share it, we will definitely have to charge more money for film and television copyright fees and screenwriter fees. If these two pieces add up, 500 million US dollars will definitely not be enough.

After the box office of "Fatal Identity" comes out this time, it is still good for Deep Space, at least the IPs they have on hand are better sold.

……

September NO.14, Xiangjiang is a sunny day.

Liu Dehua looked at the asset statement in his hand at home and lit a cigarette for himself.

Although he learned to smoke because of the needs of the role, when he is not filming, if he is not particularly bored, he will not smoke.

Now is the time when he is particularly bored.

The year before last, his Tianmu company was unable to make ends meet, and the loss was the most when it was 4000 million.

As a last resort, he could only start working part-time to pay off his debts.

In the past two years, he has filmed several films in succession, but the books still haven't come to an end.

When is a head?He doesn't know, but all he can do now is to work hard to film.

Before he finished smoking a cigarette, the phone at home suddenly rang. He quickly put out the cigarette and went to answer the phone.

"Hello."

The person opposite said with a smile, "Hua Zai, I'm Liu Weiqiang."

　Thank you [Magic Moon Cold Eyes] for the 500 reward of the boss
