China Entertainment's whatever you want

Chapter 14

The total investment of [Xiu Chun Dao] is 3000 million, and China Film Group invested 1500 million and controlled the distribution, accounting for 55% of the total share.

Gu Wei invested 1500 million in the name of the studio, accounting for 45% of the total share.

No way, who let Gu Wei only have money.

And China Film has both money and people, including the later publicity and distribution, which must be counted on.

This is because Gu Wei is a member of the academy and has a good relationship with the director. If someone outside the circle invests, it just depends on whether or not you are cheated.

In those years, coal bosses invested in the entertainment industry and spent a lot of money on filming. Look at whoever makes money, and those who can make money are considered conscientious filmmakers.

Anyway, after a film is filmed, the director, the actors, and the crew all make money. Who cares whether the investors make money or not, it's all for art.

Simply, the gang of coal bosses also knew in their hearts that they invested money either to get Xiaosan into the show, or to sleep with female stars.

The reason is very simple, the purpose is very clear, and there is no interference in the creation, everyone is satisfied.

Soon the crew of "Xiu Chun Dao" officially started, and actors joined the crew one after another.

Not surprisingly, apart from Shen Lian played by Gu Wei and Liu Yifei played by the heroine Zhou Miaotong, the other main characters were cast by the original actors.

In fact, there is no surprise, Mr. Jin Shijie, who plays Wei Zhongxian, and Lu Yang have collaborated in the previous "Cinema for the Blind".

Ding Xiu's actor Zhou Wei is the protagonist of "Cinema for the Blind".

Li Dongxue, who plays the third brother Jin Yichuan, is a student of the 07 Acting Department of the college. This is Gu Weizheng's senior brother.

Lu Yang also happened to be a graduate of the 07 Directing Department, and they are old acquaintances.

As for Wang Qianyuan, who plays the elder brother Lu Jianxing, he not only has excellent acting skills, but won the Best Actor at the 2010rd Tokyo International Film Festival and the Best Actor at the 23th China-US Film Festival in 7 for his starring role in the comedy movie "The Piano of the Piano". , and he is from the same school as the director department, and he is a 2012 graduate student of the director department of the college.

So the entertainment industry is a circle, and it's all about personal connections.

Everyone goes around on their own, making a movie, it doesn't matter who finds you.

There are many excellent actors, and the same role can be played by others, and whoever is used is not what the director and producer say.

Moreover, if they are not familiar with you, they will not look for you. If you go directly to the actors you have worked with before, you will not even have a chance to compete.

Of course, besides the connections, either you are famous, you are a popular fried chicken, and the producers will look for you for the ratings, for the box office, just like Liu Yifei now, with her current fame, if she can promote it in the later stage Kung fu will inevitably attract some of her fans to watch the movie, which will drive the box office to a certain extent.

The teacher I found in the original version was considered very popular at the time. Just now because of "Scary Step by Step", it became popular and attracted a lot of fans.

It's a pity that I have been making TV series all the time, and I haven't proved myself in the film field. The audience who watched the movie didn't buy it, and they wouldn't enter the movie theater because of her.

There is a phenomenon in the entertainment industry. It is generally recognized that movie actors are higher than TV drama actors. Many actors actively seek opportunities to make movies after they become popular on the small screen, hoping to go to the big screen.

However, many actors' TV series became popular, and even became a smash hit, but there was no splash in making movies.

The most obvious example is Brother Hu from Sugar Man. With the role of Li Xiaoyao in "Immortal Sword", he became popular on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and became the brother Xiaoyao in the hearts of a generation of girls.

However, after filming the film, the box office is basically fluttering again and again, although this is due to the lack of film resources of the company behind him, Sugar Man.

But there are also many actors who are not as famous as Brother Hu and do not have the background of a big company. They can also make movies that are popular at the box office or have high ratings.

Although Liu Yifei hasn't produced any blockbuster movies in recent years, her nationality is higher than that of her teachers, and she has been deeply involved in the film field for several years, so she still has a wave of her own movie fans.

Either you have a background, a big company as the backstage, or you can mix in the circle like a duck to water.

For example, if you sign a contract with a big company like Huayi, not to mention the company's internal resources, if the company's ability supports you, it will also find some film and television companies that cooperate with the company to exchange resources.

Just like Yang Zi, when he was not popular, he had already signed a contract to join the group once, and his role was robbed before filming. There is no way that someone has a backstage to directly communicate with the producer to rob your role, and you can only be depressed. leave.

As for suing the production crew for breach of contract, that's too naive.He has a backer, since he changed you, it means that he bullied you, you are not popular and there is no backer, sue him for at most a little money.But if you want to take on related dramas in the future, the producers will think carefully about it.

The last one is the gold dollar player.

The most obvious example is Destiny's Girl, Da Tiantian, who doesn't need to look for any relationship, and doesn't care if it's hot or not, I just throw money and it's over.

For this kind of domestic smashing of Hollywood, smashing a Hollywood sweet universe.

Basically, there is no opponent, because no matter whether it is connections or background, no one has trouble with money.

Everyone doesn't come into the entertainment industry to make connections, but to make money after all. As long as you let others make money, you can do whatever you want.

Just like Yan Wang Sun Honglei, made a big bad movie [Warring States], contributed many famous scenes, and made netizens complain.

Why does he want to act in a bad film? Didn't people show him the script before inviting him?I knew in my heart that this movie might not be very good, but I couldn't help it, the money was too much.

"Embroidered Spring Knife" is not Lu Yang's first film, but it is his first commercial blockbuster.

Before that, he shot some small-budget movies, the crew was small, the cost of communication and directing was low, and the shooting went smoothly.

【Xiu Chun Dao】There are more than 300 crew members including actors and staff. It is not a big challenge for Lu Yang to make these people completely obey his instructions, and then shoot satisfactory shots.

Fortunately, China Film Group hired Lu Yang experienced veteran drivers who had nothing to say about their professional skills. In addition, China Film Group's own producer suppressed him, and no one dared to challenge the director's authority on the set.

"Let me introduce to you, my little brother Gu Wei, the actor who plays Shen Lian, the hero of our movie, is also one of the producers and investors of our movie."

The main personnel of the crew are all there, let's introduce each other.

For Gu Wei, Lu Yang took good care of him. He was afraid that he would not adapt to the environment when he was acting in a film for the first time, so he didn't use him to introduce himself, but took the initiative to introduce him to everyone.

Originally, when everyone accepted the show, they only heard that the actor who played the male lead was called Gu Wei, but they didn't understand the rest.

Now everyone understands after hearing the director's introduction, and the exchange room suddenly became more enthusiastic.

"Hello everyone, I'm Gu Wei, a newcomer actor, and I'm currently studying at the Film Academy, all of you here are my seniors, and some of them are my seniors.

It is my honor to be able to work with so many outstanding actors in the industry. I hope that the seniors will not hesitate to teach you during the filming. I will definitely study hard and hope to grow up as soon as possible. "

Gu Wei lowered his posture and said politely with a smile on his face.

Seeing Gu Wei's humble attitude, the others were also relieved.

When Gu Wei said that, they didn't dare to really treat him as a newcomer, after all, he was not only an actor but also an investor.

They all said that everyone learns from each other and improves each other.

Liu Yifei didn't say anything, just looked at Gu Wei curiously.

In short, for Gu Wei, the crew are all good people.
