This actor doesn't look like a good guy

Chapter 281 Breaking the record!
In the following days, the box office of the second and third days was also calculated.

"Jiang Hu" was released, and the national box office exceeded 4 million on the second day, and it directly took in 000 million on the third day.

In just two and a half days, the box office exceeded [-] million.

And this has broken all previous box office records.

"In three days, in just three days, our box office has reached 1 million yuan. If we continue to develop at this momentum, won't we really have a domestic box office of more than 2 billion yuan?"

Huang Bo seemed a little excited. Although he was not the protagonist in this drama, his appearance was throughout. He was the one who pointed out the topic at the beginning, and he was the one who ended it at the end.

"Old Huang, calm down, how can the box office remain at this level? It was a little higher in the first three days, but it will definitely drop slowly in the future. In the end, it will only be a few million a day." Jiang Bai patted Huang Bo on the shoulder. said.

But at the same time, he was also thinking in his mind: "The box office in three days has already been so high. My previous guess was indeed a bit conservative. Although it will not be as explosive as Jiang Wen said, it will cost 10 billion to open the mouth, but No matter what, this movie should eventually earn more than 5 million at the box office."

At the same time, let's take a look at the other movies released at the same time. "House of Flying Daggers" had a box office of 3 million in its first three days. If "Jiang Hu" had not been released, Zhang Yi would now have exceeded the first three days of "Hero". 300 million box office record.

"A World Without Thieves" was slightly worse, with only 2000 million in box office in three days, and "Kung Fu" was about the same.

But apart from "Kung Fu", Jiang Bai also starred in two other movies, so he went to watch "Kung Fu" again.

After watching it, Jiang Bai couldn't help but sigh that this movie was really good.

The box office results are somewhat unsatisfactory. The first reason is that Xiangjiang movies have actually begun to decline at this time. Although everyone is still willing to pay for Xingye's movies, overall, as there are more and more movies, In addition, many people's attitude towards Zhou Xingxing is that you can watch it on CD anyway. Most of the previous movies were watched on CD, so there is no need to go to the cinema to watch it.

Therefore, Jiang Bai sometimes said that verbal support can only be spiritual encouragement, but spending real money to go to the cinema is real support.

But Jiang Bai is different here. Although he has acted in many movies, those are other people's movies, and the movies have already made enough money from various channels before they are released.

In addition to the influence of Wu Jing and Zhao Wenzhao, as well as Jiang Wen's name, there are also the scandals and news about Jiang Bai when he was abroad, as well as the first one to appear on the big screen of Times Square in the beautiful country, in the neon and stick country. The most conspicuous advertising screen locations in the capital are advertised.

As well as Jiang Bai's long-standing popularity and the sense of belonging and identity of those young people, it finally led to the explosion of the movie.

Of course, some people were not optimistic about this movie at first, because it included Wang Baoqiang, Huang Bo and Chen Qi. After all, they are all famous comedians.

Therefore, when it comes to such a serious drama, the audience always feels that they will be in trouble. However, after seeing those posters on the Internet and the people around them coming back to assure me that this movie will definitely be good and that the actors will definitely not appear in the drama, they are also doubtful. into the cinema.

After reading it, they also became like those people.

"In short, the success of our movie depends on our hard power, but luck also accounts for a large part." Jiang Bai concluded.

"Yes, we won the battle this time, but we can't be proud. There will be a sequel to this movie, so we must polish the script for the sequel.

Because there are many series of movies that start out great but then get worse and worse. "Zhao Zhe nodded.

At this time Jiang Wen also said: "That's it, either we won't make movies, or we will only make high-quality movies."

This success gave Jiang Wen hope, but he didn't want to keep making other people's movies. He also wanted to make his own story.

Now that the company has money, he will also receive a lot of dividends as a shareholder of the company.

So he thought about making a movie of his own, and this movie was naturally the "The Sun Also Rises" that he wanted to make before.

The company had no money before, and he knew that this movie would definitely lose money. In addition, when the company was filming "Jiang Hu", it urgently needed an idea and capable director.

So he had to put down the movie first.

But now he feels like he can pick it up again. He estimates that he will invest about 5 million in this movie. Now he has some money of his own, but he certainly can't invest it all, because although Jiang Wen is very idealistic, he doesn't have it either. Silly, investing your own money in a project that is destined to lose money is totally uneconomical.

So he plans to invest part of it.

As for the other part...

After the meeting, Jiang Wen went to Jiang Bai alone to talk about the matter.

"What's the situation now? As a grown man, I can't always make other people's movies. I happen to have a project here that I want to make, but I don't have enough money."

Before Jiang Wen finished speaking, Jiang Bai knew what the other party meant: "Brother, don't worry, the company will definitely not ignore this. How about this, brother, how much is your estimated investment in the movie?"

"5 million."

"Then how much can you produce here?"

"I can offer about 1 million."

Jiang Bai did the math. If the movie sold for 1.8 million yuan, he would be worth about 1 million yuan by then. In addition, this movie was invested by himself and the company, so the company would also have to take part of it. So I have about 3 million left.

In other words, Jiang Bai personally invested 6 million in this movie, and finally made a net profit of 000 million.

"Brother, this is it. Of the 3 million you have left, I will personally help you with 500 million, and the company will invest the other 2 million."

"That's it, it's great! Come to my house tonight, I'll take out my bottle of Maotai, and let's have a drink."

"Haha, that's no problem. It just so happens that I have nothing to do tonight."

Because Jiang Bai knew that Jiang Wen was worth investing in. After all, "Jiang Hu" could finally achieve such results, Jiang Wen also contributed a lot.

Now that he also has money, it is nothing to invest some money.

After reaching an agreement in this way, Jiang Bai accepted another interview in the afternoon.

After the interview, he went directly to Jiang Wen's home.

They kept drinking until 3:00 in the morning. They originally agreed to only drink one bottle, but in the end the two of them drank three bottles. After drinking, Jiang Bai also felt a little dizzy, so he stayed at Jiang Wen's house directly. Got off.

In the following period, Jiang Bai didn't pay much attention to the box office. Anyway, the movie has already broken records, and it will only break one record after another in the future.

Even theater chains have added a lot of film schedules.

The film will run through February, completely covering the entire winter break, when college students get out of school in early January and start school in February.

College students on vacation have class reunions and dates with their girlfriends. Apart from eating, the best place is the cinema.However, Jiang Bai was interested in returning to the Physical Education University to teach children's education, but now the students have finished their final exams and are just waiting for the holidays, and there are no classes.

So he went to Shichahai Sports School again.

It's just that as the starring role of this movie, Jiang Bai still doesn't have much free time. Since the box office of "Jiang Hu" exploded in the first three days, countless movie and TV series invitations have come like snowflakes.

There was one movie among them that Jiang Bai was very interested in.

"Feng Xiaogang is going to make another war movie?"

"Isn't he planning to make a costume film now?"

Zhao Zhe nodded: "That's right, he is still very ambitious, because Zhang Yi has made two costume films in succession until now. Although the box office results are okay, the reputation is not that good, so he still wants to Be prepared."

After Zhao Zhe finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Bai: "What do you think? Are you interested in having a male lead in this film? Although he is not your best villain, the character is still very three-dimensional."

"I'm definitely interested. In fact, compared to period films, I prefer to make war movies like this. After all, you can hold a gun, and you must have gone to the army to train before making a movie like this, right?"

"Of course, there is a lot of training before making a movie."

"But I still have a question, that is, when will he start filming? Because I already have two film appointments this year, the first is "Soldier Assault", and the second is a foreign animated film."

"It should be in the second half of next year. After all, there are a lot of things to prepare for the filming of this kind of war movie. In addition, the characters have to be selected, the scene has to be arranged, and things like explosive blasting have to be contacted and booked in advance. .”

"That shouldn't be a problem."

Jiang Bai nodded: "Next."

So Zhao Zhe immediately called Feng Xiaogang and told him that they had accepted the role.

In fact, Jiang Bai also knew very well that he was chosen to play the male lead in this drama. The first reason was that after reading the rough script, the male lead was a tough guy style actor, and he was more suitable. In addition, as a The leading actor in a movie must be able to bear the heavy burden of box office, and he is also very suitable.

As for the selection of other characters, Jiang Bai doesn't care much. Anyway, Feng Xiaogang is from Huayi, and the producer and producer will definitely be from them. Although Huayi is not very stable internally now, it is hard to find a few Suitable actors can certainly still be found.

But the agreement now is just a verbal agreement, and it will take some time before the contract is signed.

But generally speaking, agreeing to this kind of thing is a sure thing. Otherwise, it is obvious that the front foot is just right, but the back foot takes over other people's drama. This kind of thing is very offending.

After taking on these roles, Jiang Bai's schedule is basically up this year.

Because in addition to these three dramas, Jiang Bai also has to participate in a racing competition. Last year, he made an agreement with the team that he would have a look at the formula. It is estimated that after the New Year, he will have to go there and train intensively for a period of time.

As for the qualification certificate, it's easy to talk about it. The team can help with it.

So Jiang Bai didn't have anything else to do next. During the winter vacation, his sister was sent to the Magic City by the kindergarten to study for a while, and then came to Yanjing completely fine.

Jiang Yue was not very accustomed to living in a courtyard house with an area of ​​over [-] square meters at first, but later she got used to it.

When Jiang Yue was in school, she took her weekends to get her driver's license, so Jiang Bai gave his Audi to his sister to drive.

I usually drive out for a walk when I want to go out. Anyway, my sister has some former colleagues here who we can get together with.

Although the movie's box office split will have to wait for more than half a year, the money will basically be a certainty by then.

So Jiang Bai held an annual meeting at the company in January.

Basically everyone got a bonus, and Ning Hao got the most, because the two crazy series of movies he shot before set a precedent for the company. In addition, Zhao Zhe also got a lot. As the vice president of the company, he is busy every day. Busy inside and outside.

Basically, the time your feet are on the ground is not as much as the time you spend on the road.

I spend five days a week outside socializing with people.

Then there are the actors in the company. They have created benefits for the company, and the company will naturally reward them.

There is also the screenwriter team in the company.

Regarding Su Rou, Jiang Bai wanted to give out more at first, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not appropriate to do so openly, so he only gave out a bonus of 5 yuan.

Just after the annual meeting, Jiang Bai transferred a sum of money to Su Rou's account and asked her to use it to buy a suite in BJ and then decorate it.

After all, he is now his assistant, and he is sharing a room with others all day long, which is a bit outrageous to say.

This time Jiang Bai's family fortune can be said to have been completely wiped out.

But just when Jiang Bai was thinking that nothing was going on in the company and was planning to spend the New Year in peace, Zhao Zhe called him again and said that the head of the music department he had hired before had written a song for Jiang Bai.

Then Zhao Zhe took the music and went outside to find a lyricist to help fill in the lyrics.

Although the music and lyrics were right, the content of the lyrics made him a little unsure.

So Jiang Bai drove to the company yesterday.

"What song?" Jiang Bai asked curiously.

The company had intended for him to release some songs before, but he had been busy with movies during that time, and it was not easy to produce a good song, so gradually he almost forgot about it. .

Zhao Zhe handed over the lyrics.

"Look at it, this is the music score and lyrics. I remember you should understand these. If you think it doesn't work, I will let them change it again. Anyway, whether it's the lyrics or the music, you have to think about it. This kind of thing I can’t say.”

Jiang Bai reached out and took it. There were only two pieces of paper in total.

When he saw the name of the song, he was also stunned.

"Ugly?"
