Chapter 42 The extra gain brought by the movie

[Domino-like narrative design]

【A Social Fable of a Strong Country】

[It's hard to believe that such a film that deeply reflects American racial culture was made by a director from Huaguo]

[It seems like an accident is actually a collision of cultures]

...

Thanks to Li Wenjun's celebrity effect, the film attracted widespread attention within a few days of its release, and various interpretations were also posted online, mostly based on praise. Of course, some people paid attention to bloggers and said that the conflicts and coincidences in the film were too deliberate for the sake of political correctness. As for shooting, forcibly reversing, etc., but as long as it wasn't aimlessly and deliberately touching Tianhai, he didn't care too much.

One week after its release, the box office of "Crash" exceeded 8 million. Feipiao.com has adjusted its box office forecast to 20 billion, and Mtime.com's score has remained stable at
Around 8.8, everyone admits that this is a

A well-received and well-received film.

The strongest response was in Jianguo. Since the film was released, it has touched the nerves of Jianguo audiences with its real plot and sensitive issues. The film not only shows traditional skin color discrimination, but also religion, refugees, violent law enforcement, and the workplace. Discrimination, issues of vulnerable groups such as Asians, are all the most prominent contradictions in Jianguo at present.

Not long after the film was released, another incident in which a white policeman shot and killed a black minor in violent law enforcement in Jianguo was promoted by those who wanted to, which quickly aroused widespread concern in Jianguo society and turned into a demonstration.Various politicians, the media, celebrities and some social groups appeared on the stage one after another. This unfortunate incident soon became a showbiz. Fable has been sought after by countless people. Since its release, it has exceeded 9.3 million box office. Seth Films can be said to have made a fortune. The most famous film and television review website in Jianguo has always maintained a score of [-]. Hollywood celebrities.

For a while, no one in China dared to criticize the movie "Crash", otherwise they would be labeled as "racial discrimination". This is a black humor for a movie that was originally satirical and discriminatory.

"Xiaoyu, I didn't expect this drama to have such a strong response in Jianguo. You really wrote it well, and it touched their hearts."

"Director Li is over-rewarded, mainly because there are many internal problems in Jianguo."

"Yeah, I didn't expect that kind of thing to happen after it was released. I have already agreed with Seth Films to send 50 US dollars in pension to the family of the deceased."

"It can be seen that Seth Films is still very experienced in public opinion and public relations."

"They have already told me that other companies have already regarded "Crash" as their biggest rival next year, and they must come to me for any good scripts in the future."

"No problem, Director Li."

...

Xiao Yu hung up the phone with a calm expression. No matter how popular "Crash" is, it has nothing to do with him. This movie is the basis of his cooperation with Tianhai. The script was directly given to Li Wenjun, and he has already obtained the actual benefits he can get from the movie. .

However, it is not right to say that there is no profit at all. With the rising movie box office, Xiao Yu's screenwriting ability has also been widely recognized in the circle. The quality of the previous two dramas was good, but they are TV dramas after all, and the theme is also very ordinary, so it is definitely not as good as this one. A movie with a profound theme, an exquisite story, and a large number of characters can better show its skills.

For ordinary audiences, "Crash" is Li Wenjun re-proving his own strength and taking a solid step on the road to Hollywood. The greater significance for the insiders is to see a rising star of screenwriting, and this A new star has good looks and acting skills. Although such benefits are not obvious, fame is accumulated little by little.

"Deng Deng."

There is a knock on the office door
"Please come in."

Xiao Yu looked up, and Xin Wan'er walked in.

"Wan'er? What's the matter?"

Xin Wan'er's expression was firm, as if she had made a decision, "Mr. Xiao, I'm here today to discuss the signing of the contract. I was a little hesitant before and wanted to compare it. Now that I understand it, is Mr. Xiao still willing to sign me?" ? The conditions are open at will."

After hearing her words, Xiao Yu wasn't surprised at all. Xin Wan'er is a smart person, and it's normal to make this decision today, and she said such things casually on the condition of retreating. She can say that, Xiao Yu But Yu can't take it seriously.

"It's my honor that Wan'er is willing to choose Xingguang. You and Zheng Lan are living together recently, and you are already a person of Xingguang in my heart. As for the conditions, they are also the same as Zheng Lan."

Xiao Yu is not afraid that she will have some petty thoughts, everyone's cooperation is based on profit, selfishness and demands are a good thing for Xiao Yu, as for the conditions, you have to come up with them little by little, Xin Waner has acting skills Talent, although there are shortcomings in appearance, but if it is really perfect, it will not be able to meet the requirements of Starlight.

Xin Wan'er is not the first nor the last to come to Xiao Yu. In the past two days, many students have seen Xiao Yu's ability and come to discuss signing contracts, including director, cameraman, drama manager and other positions. Difficulty getting ahead in the crew is also what the Starlight Project needs most at the moment.

For those who want to join the Starlight Project, as long as they are capable, Xiao Yu will not refuse anyone. He can give opportunities that other crews cannot give. Xiao Yu believes that as long as they are given a few years, they will definitely grow into the mainstay of the Starlight Project. , This is also an additional gain brought by the movie, and it is a precious wealth that cannot be seen on the books.

After finishing all this work, Xiao Yu began to prepare his new drama. As a drama to improve his status, he chose "The Beginning", a suspense drama starring Bai Jingting and Zhao Jinmai. Once this drama started broadcasting, it caused discussions all over the Internet , "Anti-bomb CP" has been out of the circle many times, with more than 20 billion views and hundreds of hot searches. As a domestic suspense drama, it has caught everyone's eyes.Countless viewers were so scared by the canon that their hairs stood on end. The expression of "Aunt Guo" became a new "childhood shadow". Many people suffered from "pressure cooker phobia". It is very suitable for him and Shen Xingyi.

Of course, there are problems in this drama that the excavation of the characters' stories is not deep enough, the discussion of social issues is superficial, and the ending is too flat.Xiao Yu analyzed that the main reason why the original show was so bad was that the audience's expectations were too high, and even high-concept conjectures were raised. After the high-flying opening, it was difficult to accept the ending with a relatively stable landing method. Fine-tuning will be carried out, and it is impossible to miss a good drama because of choking.

Originally thought that this drama might have to be revised several times. After all, the role of the police in the drama was weakened, and the two leading actors were the only ones to solve the case. Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu underestimated Huaguo's screening standards, and passed without making many changes. He hired the leader of Huadun Film and Television Center to direct and coordinate, and corrected many professional mistakes for Xiao Yu.

The script has been reviewed, and Xiao Yu has to prepare his crew well. Although the whole drama only has 15 short episodes, it doesn’t mean it’s easy to shoot. This concept of looping and infinite streaming is still relatively new in China, so we need to let the crew first Figure out what you want to shoot.
