Heaven's Martial Fate

Chapter 529
When the vice president of the director's studio, who was in charge of daily affairs, revealed to Yuan Yuan with a gloomy expression, Wu Dong really couldn't laugh or cry.

What the hell, what the hell is this.

It's really a trouble, if one is not handled properly, even Wu Dong will have a headache for a while.

At the beginning, he never thought that such a thing would happen.

It's not a big deal, it's just a little troublesome.

Didn’t Xingkong Director’s Studio try before to shoot a comedy film based on the classic stand-up comedy “Thinking of the Tiger’s Mouth” by the famous cross talk master Jiang Kun?
As a result, the film was very popular after it was released, and it won the box office of almost 8000 million in one breath, which is quite good.

Later, when the director's studio summed up, he felt that the publicity was still not in place, otherwise the box office performance should have doubled.

Not an exaggeration at all!
The classic cross talk "Thinking of the Tiger's Mouth" is a good memory of the post-[-]s and post-[-]s?

In the current society, the post-[-]s generation is the main force, and the post-[-]s generation has also become the mainstream of society.

If the publicity is proper, even if it is just selling feelings, it can pull the box office to more than [-] million. I was a little conservative before.

However, the video and audio copyright of this film has sold well, and it can continuously generate profits in the paid channel unique to Starry Sky Film and Television Network.

It is conservatively estimated that it is not a problem that this film can bring more than 5000 million profits to the director's studio, but it will take time to accumulate.

For a comedy with a total cost of less than 1000 million, the final total profit can reach 5000 million, which is a huge profit after all.

After one successful experience, the director's studio successively adapted classic stand-up comedy with stories.

In the past two years, they have been released one after another, and all of them have achieved good box office returns.

At least, none of them lost money.

This time, it caused other film and television companies to follow suit.

At the same time, the cross talk masters who hold the copyright of classic stand-up cross talk have suddenly become popular.

Ahem, as we all know, although the circle of cross talk is not big, there are many grievances and entanglements in it.

Now that there is another opportunity to show up in the circle and make his family famous, he will naturally not miss the opportunity to make a good publicity.

However, there is no problem with self-promotion. Anyway, what a film and television company pursues is the copyright of their classic film and television adaptations.

But the problem is, I don't know what's going on, and after preaching and preaching, internal strife has arisen, and all kinds of yin and yang vibes against the peers have emerged.

This is not a big deal. When the Xing Kong Director's Studio contacted some cross talk actors, they had no objection to selling the copyright, as long as Dayang provided it in place, there was nothing to talk about at the normal market price.

However, for some unknown reason, they actually put forward some additional requirements.

It's not an appeal for profit, but I hope that after the director's studio adapts their cross talk works, they will ignore so-and-so's cross talk works.

Just kidding, how could the director's studio agree to such a request?

The vice president in charge of the daily affairs of the director's studio was talking about this.

Wu Dong was naturally very speechless. He didn't understand what those comedians were thinking.
Instead of taking the opportunity to expand the influence of cross talk and attract more audience support, instead of creating a small circle of either or not?

Naturally, he would not agree to such a thing.

"Then don't need to adapt it for the time being, there are not a few classic skits in the Spring Festival Gala!"

Wu Dong said indifferently: "Let's get in touch with the two teachers, Chen Xiaoer and Zhu Fengshang. They have a lot of classic sketches in their hands, and many of them have the possibility of being expanded and adapted for film and television!"

"There is also Mrs. Zhao's sketch, which also has a lot of room for adaptation!"

"As for Northeast Zhao, I'll also try to get in touch with it to see if I can get the right to adapt a few sketches that are easy to adapt into film and television dramas!"

To be honest, there are still a lot of classic sketches that appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, at least a lot more than cross talk.

As for why he adapted cross talk first, the main reason is that the content of the cross talk adaptation is relatively simple, and the scenes are not that complicated.

As far as "Thinking of the Tiger's Mouth" is concerned, the biggest scene is the zoo.

The scenes of other cross talk stories are basically in a relatively small environment, so the cost of adaptation and shooting is much lower.

With sketches, the situation is somewhat different.

For example, Chen Xiaoer and Zhu Fengshao's classic sketch "The Protagonist and the Supporting Actor" involved a battle for the top spots in the crew. At least a standard crew should be established, right?
With the crew as the core, the surrounding environment is expanded, such as film and television studios, hotels and shooting locations, etc., and it is necessary to create a play within a play that looks funny, which is troublesome no matter how you look at it.

Of course, once the sketch is adapted well, coupled with the quality and classic level of the sketch itself, it will easily explode.

Last year, Xu Guangtou's "On the Journey" and another low-budget light comedy "Night Club" were both successful. Is it possible that the sketch king's sketches can't compare with these two?

In other words, the adaptation of classic stand-up comedy by Xingkong Director's Studio has made domestic comedies less scarce.

Some actors with comedy talent have also slowly become popular.

Again, there are definitely a lot of audiences for local boutique comedies.

It's just that before, academic directors were all learning the New Wave, French literary theory and the like, and they didn't even bother to shoot commercial films, let alone comedies, which are the most unpopular commercial films.

Otherwise, it would not be Feng Dapao's turn to be crowned the King of Mainland Comedy.

For example, during the peak period of Xiangjiang movies, the best box office results were either family fun or comedies.

It can be seen that the market for comedy films is quite broad.

Otherwise, how could a comedy film with a strong 80s style like "Thinking of the Tiger's Mouth" earn nearly 8000 million at the box office?

After that, the box office results of some comedies adapted from classic cross talk basically ranged from 5000 million to 2000 million?
At this time, although there are already many domestic films with a box office of [-] million yuan, the number is still quite scarce.

And a comedy film adapted from a classic cross talk that has been around for some years may also have the possibility of entering the [-] million box office club, and the impact on the film and television industry can be imagined.

Some comedians, as well as sketch actors, have managed to gain a firm foothold in the film industry through the comedy films of the director's studio.

Although they can't compare to those popular Xiaosheng Xiaohua and the like, at least they belong to the second- and third-rate actors in the film and television industry. No matter the number of films they make or their income, they are not bad.

Therefore, there are quite a few comedians in the mainland film and television industry right now, and it's not just Xu Guangtou and Huang Bo who are leading the charge alone.

In fact, the skills of those veteran comedians are really not bad at all.

For example, the one who played Sima Yi, Pan Hong, one of the five golden flowers back then, and the masters in the sketch world, which one's acting skills are worse?
The key point is that these superb actors are not averse to acting in comedies. Of course, the script must satisfy them.

As it happens, Xingkong Director Studio doesn't even care much about the director, but it pays special attention to the script, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it strives for perfection.

According to what Wu Dong said when he founded the director's studio, as long as the script is excellent, the quality of the film will not be bad if the director is a little more reliable.

As for the unreliable director, isn't that a joke?
Like the director's studio, it is such a rare opportunity to give new directors, or some directors who have never had the opportunity to direct films.
If anyone doesn't cherish it, he basically won't have to hang out in the film and television industry in the future.

In the current film and television industry, there is a love-hate relationship with Xing Kong Director's Studio.

What I love is that with the rise of Xingkong Director's Studio, it soon became a leading domestic private film and television company, helping the film and television industry to expand a lot of film categories.

More importantly, the director's studio has continuously trained qualified commercial film directors, which has brought huge benefits to the rest of the private film and television companies.

It is the other top-notch private film and television companies. They simply don't have the courage and strength to put their hopes on new directors.

Therefore, at the beginning, they either spent a lot of money to firmly bind Feng Dapao, or they were firmly bound to the Hong Kong circle, becoming the spokesperson for the production and distribution of Hong Kong films in the Mainland.

Or it is to carefully invest in the films of big directors and try to get a piece of the pie.

With their strength, they don't have that much courage to invest in new directors.

Unlike Xingkong Director's Studio, they directly use new directors, and almost all of them have been successfully trained.

The most exaggerated thing is that Xingkong Director Studio doesn't care much about these qualified commercial film directors, allowing them to be poached by other film and television companies.

As a result, the number of qualified directors who can shoot commercial films has increased, but it's not the previous few who went back and forth, and the entire film and television circle became lively.

The original veteran commercial director felt the threat and pressure, so naturally he would not continue to take Canada, and the film and television company would naturally benefit.

This is the place where mainland film and television companies are most satisfied with Xingkong Director's Studio.

The hateful thing is that Nima's Xingkong Director's Studio doesn't take directors seriously, and the qualified directors they cultivate don't care, but they have produced a huge number of movies, and they have hardly lost money.

Such a situation is quite despicable.

Although the domestic film market is growing rapidly every year, the box office is so big.Starry Sky Director's Studio eats too much, and the rest of the film and television companies naturally eat less.

But the problem is that Xingkong Director Studio is not only the number one private film and television company in the mainland, its own strength is not just for fun.

Although its home base is not in the capital, whether it is in the film bureau or the cultural propaganda department, they all have considerable influence and strong support, and it is quite difficult to target them.

What's even more exaggerated is that the strength of the Star Group behind it is even stronger, and if you want to target it, you are making yourself unhappy...
