The whole entertainment circle thinks I'm confused

Chapter 369 Project Approval (seeking a monthly ticket)

Tao Tang is well aware of Xia Yu's strict requirements for scripts, so when it comes to selecting scripts, he really selects them carefully.There were a bunch of scripts that were already qualified to win the award, but she would only pick the most suitable one.

But for the script of "Trafficking Crime", Tao Tang also reminded Xia Yu many times, "Li Yuqin's character is different from Lin Dan and Bai Xiaofei. A 40-year-old woman who has been tortured beyond recognition—she is old, both in mentality and in appearance!"

For Xia Yu, this role is absolutely subversive, and she will have to put in more effort.

"Whether it's "Painting the Ground as a Prison" or "Healing", no matter how bad the mental state of the two heroines is, there are also alternative, different kinds of morbid beauty, beauty without makeup... and Li Yuqin, it is difficult for you to find more beauty. You are an orphan. , mentally deformed women."

"Li Yuqin is still a disabled person, a cripple... It's a big test for acting skills. If you accidentally fail to perform well, word of mouth will face a huge challenge!"

This was Tao Tang's advice before the Berlin Film Festival. After all, she is only an agent, and she can give the best advice——but she is not a pure agent. She has more things to consider. At that time, Xia Yu hadn't won Golden Rooster, Golden Horse!
Xia Yu didn't say much at the time, only one sentence, "I still want to try..."

Then he laughed, "Sister Tang, don't you think this is a particularly exciting challenge?"

And when Cheng Zhiqing and Dai Chengbi signed the contract and left the studio, Tao Tang understood Xia Yu's thoughts at that time...

'I expected that this year's "Cure" will not be able to win the top three in all likelihood, so I will fight for next year, or even the year after! '

Now she understands.

Touching Xia Yu's forehead, he smiled emotionally, "Our little girl has really grown up!"

She then got up, packed her things, and was about to go out. Xia Yu was puzzled, "What are you going to do?"

"Great Wall Films... finalized the investment!"

This movie does not necessarily make money, but word of mouth is what Great Wall Film and Television wants and wants to maintain!

This year's Berlin Film Festival has come to an end.

Zhang Chengye founded "Chengye Film and Television" last year.

This small workshop, which has been established for only half a year, won the No.60 Best Golden Bear Award and Best Silver Bear Actor Award at the [-]th Berlin Film Festival for its little-known short work "Night Flame".

While the whole circle was in an uproar, a large pocket was thrown at the already crumbling Tianhe era, "Chengye Film and Television" entered the public eye for the first time!

This is the second film to win the Berlin Golden Bear and Silver Bear after the millennium, but the theme is even more awkward. Although Xia Yu didn't watch it, the director Zheng Teng who helped him before had a chat with them. Said, similar to "Drowning".

The film critic Chen Lin also released a corresponding film review after watching the movie. The movie is excellent, but it doesn't quite fit the reality.

The male actor's acting skills are not inferior to Yu Junhao, but the female actress is a bit inferior. The acting skills of the two collide and are a little lacking. To put it bluntly, this is a literary film that Westerners love to watch, and it is completely in line with the positioning of the Berlin Film Festival. .

In terms of popularity, there is definitely no way to compare with "Cure", and in terms of appearance, it is even more so, and the heroine barely saved it.

The obscure literature and art of this movie must be the favorite of literary youths, but it has no commercial elements. Tao Tang analyzed that even if there is a Golden Bear award, the box office will not exceed [-] million, and it may not even be able to reach [-] million.

This is why the four of them had the same comment when discussing the movie "Trafficking Crime", "It's hard to make money!"

But one good thing is that, compared to this "Night Flame" movie, which is not painful, cyan crime, and has not yet gotten rid of vulgar love, "Trafficking Crime" is more realistic, the main theme, and more educational—— It's not empty!
Xia Yu also made it clear that she plans to participate in next year's Venice Film Festival for this movie.

And when Cheng Zhiqing heard the news... his whole breathing was a little uneven.

It's not that he has a bad mentality, it's just that the status quo in the industry is like this, it doesn't mean that a person with good acting skills can meet a suitable book!

This kind of serious script, where the male and female protagonists can compete separately, is even more rare.

This is the first time for Cheng Zhiqing to play the leading role, and he still has to send the book to the three major A-category film festivals, so he just can't refuse it!
This is his first one, and it is very likely to be the last one in his future film and television career... Even if he can't win an award, he will accept it.

But it's hard to find another one.

With Wei Jihong on the mainland and Yu Junhao on the bottom, these old actors are really just "gold medal supporting roles!"

As soon as Tao Tang left Xia Yu's studio, he called Great Wall Film and Television. When he heard that Xia Yu's new film project was approved, he asked Tao Tang to go directly to Great Wall Film and Television to discuss the establishment of a cooperative project.When they arrived at Yao Yuanqian's office, the two talked all afternoon.

For this investment project, the shareholding is also roughly clear. Xia Yu Studio holds 40.00%40.00 of the shares, Tao Tang of Great Wall Film and Television has passed 5.00%[-], Zhuanghe Studio [-]%, and Dai Chengbi [-]%.

The producer, director, and actors are naturally in the hands of Xia Yu Studio. What Great Wall Film and Television has to do is to provide the crew, allocate investment funds, prepare for the follow-up editing work, and act as the distributor to arrange the movie theaters.

As for the script of "Trafficking Crime", Yao Yuanqian also understands that even if Xia Yu plays the leading role in this movie, it may not be able to make money. A book for awards!
As far as this lineup and investment are concerned, it is certain that the movie of the Great Wall Film and Television faction will be made—as for why Xia Yu chose Cheng Zhiqing, Yao Yuanqian also has a superior consideration for this.

Nothing more than two reasons.

One is the relationship between Xia Yu and Cheng Zhiqing, and the other is the consideration of Great Wall Film and Television.

Xia Yu didn't know about this beautiful misunderstanding, even if she knew, she could only smile.

She can think about small things, such as investment, such as dividends.

But it's about the script, not to mention Great Wall Film and Television, even if Mr. Zhuang is in front of him, it can only be a recommendation, it's up to her to choose it or not!
This is the consensus reached between her and the old man.

After reading the script, we negotiated a shareholding, and finally when it comes to investment, Tao Tang has been summing up the script of "Trafficking Crime", and finally gave an investment of 8000 million. How should I put it, it's business-like!
Xia Yu Studio contributed 680 million, Great Wall Film and Television contributed 600 million, Dai Chengbi personally invested 400 million, and Zhuang He Studio contributed 320 million!

In fact, Xia Yu's film salary has risen to a small target up to now, and no less than a crew has offered her a sky-high price.

A hundred million is definitely too much.

But as the first actress with three gold medals, and with a total of more than 20 billion box office data, her film salary barely reached 2000 million before tax, double that of "Cure", but this is Xia Yu's real worth at present.
