Actor he doesn't want to be a eunuch

Chapter 891

Great Ming Tribulation?
Qian Chen subconsciously became a little angry, if the emperor heard this, you and I wouldn't be able to take it anymore.

However, he soon realized that Daming was dead.

This is something he knew when he came here and received part of the memories given to him by the original owner, but at that time he was faced with the pressure of being sent back at any time, and he had no time to feel melancholy.

How could such a powerful Daming die?

Lao Zhu started with a broken bowl, how could the country he worked so hard to conquer be so easily destroyed by the barbarians and a few waves of rioters?

"What is the movie mainly about? I heard that you have been preparing it for three years." Qian Chen's loss of consciousness was only a moment, and he soon returned to normal.

"That's right, I'll send it to you. I have a temporary document that can be operated on the phone. The software that comes with the Xiaoyu system is very suitable for office work." Wang Jing sent the things to Qian Chen in a hurry.

To be honest, don't look at him who has been preparing for three years.

But in fact, he has hit a wall for three full years. Even if he made such a well-known work as "Arrow Piercing the Heart", it still failed to change the situation of no one investing.

Fortunately, his professionalism is not strong.

Filming is just his side job, so he just wants to take a step at a time, maybe one day he will get lucky.

I didn't expect this day to come so soon.

Qian Chen received it, and found that the contents were quite detailed, ranging from the content of the script, to the shooting plan, to the selection of actors and so on.

The film tells the story of the plague in the 15th year of Chongzhen (1642), Li Zicheng's attack on Kaifeng, the internal and external troubles of the Ming Dynasty, and the story of Sun Chuanting and Wu Youke swearing to the death to fight against the army and the plague.

"Is it adapted from the real story?" Qian Chen sighed in his heart.

Chongzhen is really unlucky, if he and Wanli are out of order...

"Almost, the screenwriters and I spent two and a half years basically exhausting the relevant historical materials of the late Ming Dynasty. Both Wu Youke and Sun Chuanting are real figures in history, and almost all the stories in the film come from first-hand historical materials. The history of China is actually We don't need to joke about it or arrange it, it is a brilliant culture full of stories and struggles." Wang Jing nodded quickly.

"Oh, the screenwriter is Xie Dadong, a senior in the Department of Chemistry." Qian Chen turned back and looked at the screenwriter's name.

Another traitor from Peking University.

Don't study chemistry well, go to work as a film screenwriter.

"Yes, it's him, my old buddy. We have collaborated on "All Year Round" before, which is also a film about the Spring Festival travel theme. This time we will make a historical film, and we have been researching it together for several years." Wang Jing was also quite emotional.

"Historical film?" Qian Chen didn't know why.

"Although Ni's "Qi's Knife" made a lot of money, the costume film market in recent years has been ruined by successive bad movies such as "Warring States" and "Blood Droplet". The audience directly thinks that costume movies must be bad movies. There is no way , We have done a lot of work, including art and costumes, checked a lot of historical materials, and made the film a historical film.”

Wang Jing focused on Qian Chen's "Qi's Knife", and found that although it is a costume film, its success cannot be replicated at all.

First, Qijiadao is strictly speaking an ancient costume military martial arts film.

Second, the lineup of Qijiadao is very strong. The two traffic giants, Qian Chen and Anxi, joined forces to hype CP frantically during the marketing process.

Third, they spent 8000 million yuan to achieve the ultimate in special effects and lineups.

More importantly, they are serious about making movies.

On the other hand, Sun Zidian and Jing Tang's "Warring States", and Huang Da'an and Li Yunchun's "Blood Droplet", it is really hard to describe.

"I think it's okay." Qian Chen said against his will.

If he made this movie, he definitely wouldn't do it like this, but now he wants the movie to lose money, so naturally there is no need to talk nonsense.

I was afraid that you would suddenly "betray" the money-losing camp directly.

At the end of last year, Ma Daguan, who started out as a comedy film, released the historical disaster theme "The Great Escape", which met with Xu Zheng's debut film "Thailand Is Not Easy".

As a result, everyone knows: Chinese movie audiences voted with their feet, and "Thailand is not easy" became the first domestic movie with a box office of over 10 billion, which opened the prelude to a new comedy era of Chinese movie.

The fate of film works cannot exist beyond "trends".

The road to Wangjing has been walked to death by Ma Daguan.

But movies are like this, you can’t get through if you can see clearly, and you will still fall in the same way if you stumble.

"Those costume dramas proved that the lineup can't solve the problem. I hope to work hard on the content." It's not that Wang Jing doesn't want to find big stars, but the subject matter of his movie limits his possibility of finding big stars.

Neither of the two main roles could be played by Qian Chen.

Of course, if Qian Chen had to want to act...he would most likely not refuse, at least Qian Chen's acting skills are there, and it's okay to put on a fake beard and play middle-aged and old people.

"Lineup, Ma Yuanzheng, haha, I know him well." Qian Chen was a little surprised.

Perhaps because Ma Yuanzheng played Feng Bao, Qian Chen always has some special affection for him, and when he meets him at events, he will always give him the greatest respect.

"Teacher Ma has agreed to play the role." Wang Jing said.

He was quite afraid that Qian Chen would replace Ma Yuanzheng and ask to play Wu Youke. Now it's all right, you are acquaintances, so you won't tear it up.

"Teacher Dai is playing Sun Chuanting..." Qian Chen saw another acquaintance.

It's the Wanwan actor who played the role of the colorist in "Sword Rain Jianghu", and his level is quite good.

"Yes, his acting skills are pretty good." Wang Jing knew that this guy had worked with Qian Chen before.

"I have a better candidate. Do you know Li Guanqi? His ancient costume is amazing. Just standing in front of you, you feel that he is an ancient person." Qian Chen put forward a different opinion. .

There is a blacklist on Lao Tian's side, and this teacher Dai is on it.

But Qian Chen actually didn't understand why this guy didn't expose the blacklist, maybe he still wanted to take a long time to catch big fish, and he couldn't catch them all.

"Mr. Li Guanqi, I know, Concubine Su." Wang Jing was relieved.

This is also an acting school.

He played Zhang Juzheng in "Qi's Knife", and he was very successful in shaping the senior officials of the Ming Dynasty.

"Others, I don't have any ideas here." Qian Chen put down the phone.

Steady!

This time it's a deal.

At first, I thought that if I was not sure about the project, I could go and ask Guan Erye for his blessing.

"It means..." Happiness came so suddenly, Wang Jing couldn't believe it.

The main reason is that the other party made a decision too hastily.

Film investment is not trivial, especially for projects that may lose everything at any time.

His films before Wang Jing mainly follow the literary route. Although not all of them lose money, they are at least the type that capital dislikes the most, because they can't make much money.

Those who accompanied the boss for a meal, the boss waved his hand and said that I voted for this movie, which can be said to be rare.

"How much do you need?" Qian Chen asked.

The other party has been preparing for so many years, and even the actors have been selected. It must be able to shoot immediately when the money is in place.

"Eighteen million is almost the same." Wang Jing had already done the calculation countless times.

If the investor is really not optimistic, it is not impossible to only give 500 million. He and Xie Dadong can get 300 million.

For this movie, he is quite confident.

"Okay, I'll ask you to sign the contract later, let's shoot as soon as possible, how fast can it be?" Qian Chen didn't say that he wanted to add more money.

Silly.

If you want to lose money, first of all, don't randomly arrange big names, or even bring Anxi to play in person.

I feel that no matter what I shoot, it is possible to make money.

The reason why the surname was changed to Dai was because of Qian Chen's own inner conflict - he didn't know about "Jian Yu Jiang Hu" and he didn't have the right to speak.

Of course, he could also wait for the movie to finish and let Lao Tian expose the surname Dai.

The movie might not even be released.

But that doesn't comply with the system's regulations, it's an illegal operation, and it's a bit shameless.

It is indeed 0 box office if it is not released, but there is no score, and it does not meet the conditions for completing the task.

The second is not to add money to others indiscriminately.

You have spent a lot of money on a shoddy work that was originally filmed tightly. By then, there will be a huge improvement in all aspects, and maybe you will have a good reputation at the box office.

Losing money is a science.

Losing money can be a dog, that's a curse word.

"Have you voted all in?" Wang Jing resisted the urge to rub his eyes. He suspected that Qian's second child in front of him had become a vixen. He was saved by him in his previous life, and then he came to repay his life-saving grace in this life.

"Yes, 800 million." Qian Chen nodded.

"Then I can turn it on next week!" Wang Jing slammed the table.

The soup in the fat intestine noodles jumped up, and then fell steadily into the bowl without spilling out at all.

"It's so fast, okay, I wish Teacher Wang every success." Qian Chen was very satisfied.

If it is done quickly and it can be released this year, the money may still be used.

"Haha, thank you, Mr. Qian, and wish Mr. Qian's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" can set a new box office record." Wang Jing didn't expect that he would have such an unexpected surprise today.

"I would like to borrow your good words." Qian Chen cupped his hands.

The two parted happily.

After Qian Chen waited for him to leave, he ordered another extra large portion of fat sausage noodles.

One bowl is simply not enough.

I paid for the two bowls of Wang Jing just now, but now this bowl is free.

While eating, he asked Brother Ji to invest a sum of money from his personal account in the fund into Wang Jing.

And promised that all proceeds will go to charity.

The money rewarded by the system will enter Qian Chen's account in other legal forms.

Ji Ge didn't have much opinion on this.

The money in this account was originally used for charity.

Investing in literary films is no different from doing charity. In his impression, Wang Jing is a money-losing director.

Wang Jing got the money the next day.

Just like dreaming.

And his blessing seems to have had an effect. "Journey to the West" has a box office of over 14 million on Valentine's Day on February [-]th, and in the next three days, that is, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, it has maintained a box office of over [-] million.

This result is even more eye-catching than "Thailand is not easy".

All of a sudden, the movies that were released at the same time were crying all over the place, and one after another fell into a more tragic fight, because more than 70% of the scheduled films were taken away by "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".

　If there is no accident, the Dacheng is in August in the book, and the official announcement is in March and April
