This director is very reliable

Chapter 1004 Do you want to cheat?
First of all, let me say that the 28 billion guaranteed release is not for 28 billion...

The 28 billion guaranteed release means that the gamble will be based on the 28 billion box office!

According to the account sharing agreement, Baoqiang's Lehuahua Films needs to pay at least 28 million for the box office of 8 billion...

In the original time and space, Lehuahua Pictures is actually the guaranteed distributor of "Alien"...

The guarantee is also 28 billion, but...

The two companies have full confidence in "Alien", and stipulated that the total box office revenue after the film's release exceeds 28 billion yuan. The two parties can also divide the excess part according to the film's net income: 30% for the investor and 70% for the guarantee...

The highest guarantee of 28 billion in film history...

It's shocking!

Really, for "Transformers 5" back then, the guarantees of several companies were only 26 billion!

I remember that everyone was optimistic that "Crazy Alien" could fill the gap of 40 billion+. Many marketing accounts and self-media hype Wang Baoqiang had a precise vision...

Then, Baoqiang should have lost a lot...

Because 7 million has been paid in advance, plus 2 million announcements...

8 million yuan in account sharing income, plus new media copyrights, TV copyrights, overseas copyrights, etc., at most the same, no profit and no loss!

But this time and space...

It's not a Spring Festival release!
And it will be released in June, a bunch of Hollywood blockbusters, "Godzilla 6: King of the Monsters", "X-Men: Dark Phoenix", "Men in Black: Global Wanted", "Toy Story 2"...

Shen Changlin knows that apart from "Toy Story 4", these blockbuster films are not so good at the word of mouth and box office...

'Toy Story 4' has good word-of-mouth, but poor box office performance...

The domestic box office performance of the "Toy Story" series is very average. In fact, except for "Coco", the domestic box office of Pixar's animation works has exceeded 2 billion, and the box office of other animation works is around [-] million...

The problem is, "Crazy Alien" is hard to hit the box office!
The box office ceiling of Chinese comedy movies should be "The Mermaid"...

But that is a discount of Master Xing's decades of reputation.

So, if you promise 28 billion guarantee...

In fact, it is a very cost-effective thing!
Before it was released, it has already earned 3 to 4 million...

"And Lehuahua said that it will pay [-] million publicity funds!"

Shen Changlin was puzzled: "...Where did they get the distribution team from?"

"New companies are like this now, spend a lot of money to get a blockbuster, then hype it up, and directly enter the first echelon..."

This is also the reason why guaranteed releases have intensified in the past two years.

However, with the serious polarization of the domestic film box office-China currently produces as many as 1000 films each year, 700 are released, 400 are invalidly scheduled, and 100 are influential.But 1% of the films accounted for 43% of the box office.

1% of the films win 43% of the box office, which means that 99% of the films will grab 57% of the market space, and the competitive pressure and difficulty are beyond ordinary people's imagination.

The box office effect of top works is becoming more and more concentrated...

曾经业内流行的5亿、8亿、10亿保底很难引诱大片，而20亿、30亿保底势在必行！
For example, Shen Changlin's "Assassination of Novelists", some companies want to guarantee a minimum of 25 billion distribution...

Of course it was rejected!

Shen Changlin asked Ning Hao: "What do you think?"

The latter thought for a while, and then asked: "Do you think "Alien" can have 28 billion?"

Shen Changlin thought for a while: "It's a bit difficult to tell the truth..."

Hearing this, Ning Hao understood, and said to Lao Guo: "Forget it, Baoqiang is miserable enough... let's not cheat him!"

"Baoqiang is miserable?"

"Not miserable? Let's not talk about Jin Lian, "The New King of Comedy" ruined him!"

Shen Changlin was speechless: "...Nobody cares that "The New King of Comedy" is starring Wang Baoqiang, everyone bought tickets for Zhou Xingchi, and scolded Zhou Xingchi!"

"That's true," Ning Hao suddenly thought of something, and said happily, "By the way, there are still a bunch of people on the Internet looking for supplements for "The New King of Comedy"..."

"I can't help it, these are fans, if one day I make a bad movie, there will probably be fans who will defend me..."

"... "

Ning Hao shut up...

Shen Changlin changed the subject: "I'm going to shoot "Earth Fire"!"

"Big Liu's "Earth Fire"?"

"Hmm... I feel that "Ground Fire" is not at all the same as the disaster movies I watched before..."

"Yes, this is where Big Liu is awesome!"

Ning Hao is a fan of Liu Cixin...

In the original time and space, the copyright of "The Wandering Earth" was transferred to Guo Fan by Ning Hao...

……

Baoqiang is really an all-around actor!
Action movies and comedies can be acted, and literary movies are not bad.

He really is the best portrayal of a dreamer.

None of my relatives and friends are in this line of work, and they are not outstanding in appearance, so I have become a first-line actor.

And the character is really good!
Think about it, a wife and an agent are the closest and most trusted people around him, and the person who knows the most things about him, if he has a dark history, he can't hide it from his wife and agent, even if he can hide it from his wife, he can't hide it from him. It must be hidden from the agent.

However, the combination of wife + agent did not come up with any black material, not a single solid hammer.

On this point, people can make a lot of judgments.

As an actor, he loves his job and works hard, presents us with wonderful works, and does not evade taxes. This alone has already killed many artists in seconds;
As a social celebrity, he is patriotic and has a sense of justice~
Shen Changlin doesn't really want to trick him...

What's more, the IP of "Detective Chinatown" still relies on Baoqiang!

So, he made a phone call and told the truth about the situation of "Alien"...

Baoqiang is very persuasive...

If he really insists on going his own way, Shen Changlin doesn't mind making such a fortune!

……

"The Rise of Science Fiction... This word is a bit big. So far, we have only done "The Wandering Earth"..."

"I think the word Rise represents a batch of works, not just one!"

Shen Changlin was being interviewed by the media...

The questions from the media are very concentrated, they are all asking about "The Wandering Earth 2"...

Although the Spring Festival file has passed, "The Wandering Earth 2" is still in theaters, and the box office has already reached 45 billion. There is little suspense to break through 50 billion, but it should not be able to surpass the box office of the first movie. Tomorrow, "Alita: Battle Angel " is about to be released.

This film will definitely squeeze the filming space of "The Wandering Earth 2"...

A week later, Captain Marvel hits theaters…

Almost cut off the back road of "Wandering Earth 2".

No way, China and the United States will be released simultaneously!
"The Wandering Earth 2" is very realistic, revolving around the struggle between the coalition government and the people - the great human rebellion...

Of course, there is no direct filming, just the reason for the human rebellion and a few sporadic battles...

The third part is the climax!
The cost of "The Wandering Earth 2" is 4.5 million, which is basically the same as the first one. The reason why it was shot so quickly is because the templates for post-production special effects are all ready-made...

The reporters who interviewed him had different opinions: ""Shanghai Fortress" and "Star Explorer" are both planned to be released..."

"Then we will wait and see..."

Shen Changlin didn't directly say that he doesn't like it...

But the meaning is obvious.

The reporter waited to ask further questions, but Shen Changlin directly stopped the topic: "We'll talk about it when it's released!"

The reporter had no choice but to change the subject: "Then what do you think is the most important aspect of Chinese science fiction?"

Shen Changlin thought for a while and replied: "The most important thing is the difference from Western science fiction... After all, science fiction fans have watched too many science fiction films. If we can't make new ideas, we might as well not make them!"

"This is also the reason why I admire Liu Cixin. I have read almost all of his works. The subject matter may have been written by foreigners, but the plot structure is completely different from Western science fiction!"

"...Then you want to shoot "Three-Body Problem"?"

"Wait a minute, I'm only 32 years old anyway, I have plenty of energy!"

　Going to the hospital today and attending my cousin's wedding...

　　It's outrageous, why are people born in 96 so anxious to get married?
　　I'm not married yet!
