This director is very reliable

Chapter 216 As expected (fourth update)

Wang Changtian is not worried at all that Changlin Film and Television's stall will collapse.

Those who don't know how to do it may ridicule Shen Changlin's east and west, but Changlin Film and Television's TV dramas and variety shows have SMG's investment share, and TV stations participate.

With a TV station taking over, the probability of loss is not high, but it may make less money!
"Variety shows, TV dramas are definitely not inferior to making money from movies...especially hit variety shows! "Running Man" meets all the requirements of hit hits, don't worry!"

"I'm not worried about this... Have you watched Director Chen's "Four Famous Arrests"?"

"I didn't read...what's the matter?"

Wang Changtian hesitated, and then said: "It doesn't feel like a martial arts..."

"... "

Shen Changlin didn't know what to say...

To be honest, the script and themes of "Four Famous Catchers" are all passable, the story has foreshadowing, the plot has ups and downs, and the special effects are not bad.

Why not buy it?

Because... Wuxia has seen this type of film, and we have seen better ones!
If you haven’t watched a martial arts movie, you may think that "Four Famous Catchers" is really good, but today's audience happens to be the group that has grown up with Hong Kong movies. We know that "New Dragon Inn", "Swordsman", "Swordsman" "Once Upon a Time" series, it's hard for you to speak well of the mediocre "Four Famous Catchers"!

"Pure martial arts genre...it's really a bit outdated!"

"...You don't like it either?"

"It's not a question of whether I like it or not, but... Director Chen Jiashang's ability is simply impossible to match or reach the golden age of Hong Kong movies!" After a pause, Shen Changlin added: "After all, our audience is watching martial arts films. Big ones, it is natural to compare with that era!"

Wang Changtian had a different opinion: "But "Xiu Chun Knife" is very good, with good reputation and box office!"

""Embroidered Spring Knife" is not a martial arts, its story frame can be placed in any era!"

Wang Changtian thought for a while, nodded, and then sighed: "I have to do "Four Famous Arrests"..."

"... "

Indeed, "Four Famous Catchers" is very tasteless, the genre doesn't please the market, and it won't make too much money, but at least it won't lose money...

Be grateful, fortunately the trilogy was released in 2014 - before Huang Qiusheng went crazy!

Otherwise, it will just rot in your hands!

"Mr. Wang, what do you think of co-productions?"

Shen Changlin changed the subject.

"Co-production?" Wang Changtian looked at him suspiciously: "You want to make a co-production?"

"Well, I have an idea!"

"Why do you have an idea? Don't you always pay attention to domestic films?"

How to explain this?
I can't say that I want to pull a lotus...

"Isn't there a lot of hype about co-productions these days, so I have an idea too!"

……

Well, there have been too many hype news about co-productions recently, so I flipped through them. What TV will participate in "The Expendables 2", DMG Entertainment will participate in the production of "Iron Man 3", starring Fan Xiaopang and Andy Lau, New Field Entertainment will participate in "Cloud Atlas" , Zhou Xun may star in;

Wanda will use Keanu Reeves to direct "Man of Tai Chi"...

The Shanghai Film Festival even made a special feature on Sino-US co-productions, and invited a bunch of industry leaders to participate!
No way, so far, 10 of the top 9 box office films are from Hollywood - only "Search" is a purely domestic film.

Join if you can't beat it!
This trick is not only good at Durant...

In fact, Guangguang has always attached great importance to Sino-US co-productions. After all, it has done a batch of film business, and later generations have also done "Rampage Hollywood"...

So, when I heard Shen Changlin's proposal, I was decisively interested: "You want to co-produce?"

Shen Changlin shook his head: "I don't want to be a director, but I want to try..."

Wang Changtian felt a little regretful: "I thought you were going to take the international route!"

"I don't have any plans for now!"

Shen Changlin continued: "I think Chinese film and television companies have not yet reached the stage of internationalization, even after a few years, whether they have the ability or the need to internationalize is something worth considering.

Internationalization means that we want to enter the international market, but do we understand the international market?If you don't understand, how can you make judgments.Hong Kong is so close to us, and in such a small place, is there a mainland company capable of producing films for the Hong Kong market and making very good profits at the same time? "

"I can't even enter the Hong Kong market, let alone the international market!"

Wang Changtian was puzzled: "Then you still want to make a co-production?"

"It's just a small experiment, I want to practice it... I have studied it. The genre films that are sold worldwide are either science fiction or monsters. They don't need to involve specific nations or countries... There is no barrier to acceptance. I think the monster disaster genre is a good choice. !"

Wang Changtian nodded, and then asked: "...But the two types you mentioned, the investment is huge, right?"

"Indeed, a good monster disaster movie can't be done without a cost of [-] million dollars!"

Wang Changtian couldn't help being surprised: "... [-] million US dollars?"

"It's a blockbuster... You see, "Han River Monster" is out of Korea, no one cares!"

"Let's talk about "Four Famous Catchers"!"

Wang Changtian decisively refused...

Didn't ask Shen Changlin about the specific situation at all...

[-] million US dollars, this amount completely exceeded his tolerance limit...

Shen Changlin didn't continue to try to persuade him—it's pointless!
He doesn't like drawing cakes very much, and he is not good at drawing cakes either!

And... when he came, he was prepared to be rejected—Wang Changtian was too steady.

Since Guangguang is not interested, then find another company and get the right to adapt "Megalodon" first...

After chatting for a few more words, Shen Changlin bid farewell and left.

……

The 30-episode TV series "Small Smile is Alluring", the filming cycle is three months.

As the heroine, Naza should stay for three months.

But she picked up "The Thieves"...

In order to make her catch up with the schedule, almost all the scenes revolved around her, and she was able to endure hardships, and the filming was completed in two months...

Then back to the capital.

After getting off the plane, I was about to send brother Shen Changlin a daily greeting text message, when I suddenly received a call from Zhao Shan: "Where are you?"

"I'm at the airport..."

"Come to the company quickly!"

"...I just got off the plane and wanted to take a break..."

"Come here quickly. Director Yi will come over later to choose actors for his new play. I'll give you an hour. Don't wait when it's overdue!"

Then Zhao Shan hung up the phone...

Nazha was stunned for a moment, and then realized: Mou?

Director Ah Mou!

Naza immediately cheered up and urged his assistants to get in the car and go to the company together...

In the car, the assistant helped her fix her makeup. When she walked into the company with a smile on her face, she saw a group of people sitting in the lounge, including Zhang Yi, Jin Chen, Chen Xiao, Wang Kai, and someone she didn't know...

There is even Liu Shishi!
Not quite what I expected...

But she hurriedly greeted her: "Sister Shi Shi...Brother Zhang Yi, Brother Chen Xiao, Brother Kai, Daxi...Are you here too?"

"Well," Shi Shi pulled over to Jiao Junyan: "This is Jiao Junyan, your senior sister!"

"...Well, Miss Jiao..."

After saying hello, Na Zha obediently sat next to Jin Daxi, and tugged at the corner of her clothes: "Come with me to the toilet!"

"…it is good!"

Where is going to the toilet, mainly to exchange information...
