China Entertainment: I am a big boss in the industry

Chapter 211 School Beauty in Theater

Movies with a domestic box office of over 10 billion are limited in their themes. Only war, science fiction, youth, costume, and comedy have the potential to exceed billion in box office.

In today's time, there are even fewer themes that can exceed one billion in box office.

War-themed movies are almost unfeasible. Western civilization has not yet exorcised its charms. Apple mobile phones are highly sought after in China. Nowadays, people shouting: "China is awesome" have no market at all. The Leading Party will organize netizens to smash Lin Gao's Weibo.

The war theme requires official cooperation. The cycle of a movie requires at least three months or more. After the post-production, review, and publicity process, it has long missed the Spring Festival schedule.

The science fiction film Guo Fan is producing, but the schedule is unknown.

Given the size of the current film market, there is zero chance that a youth film will break the one billion box office mark. As for costume films, they have already been badly made in Hong Kong.

"Flying Swords of Dragon Gate", a collaboration between director Tsui Hark and Huayi, almost represents the pinnacle of martial arts movies, and also has the support of Jet Li, Zhou Xun, and Chen Kun. However, the final box office result was only 5.4 million, and even It’s not as good as Lin Gao’s suspense movie [The Guest], which is 0.5 billion less.

Although Wang Zhongjun expressed satisfaction in front of the media, his true thoughts in his heart are unknown.

Is the sky-high salary offered to Jet Li really a salary of 5.9 million?

The repayment of the movie is probably a problem.

Only funny themes were left as an option. Lin Gao divided the funny themes into three categories. One category was Xingye's Zhou Entertainment, and the remaining two were "Mermaid" and "Journey to the West".

Lin Gao chose to give up. "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" and "Westward Journey" are plot-connected, and the movie style of "Mermaid" is very outstanding, leaving some pension for "Master Xing".

The second category, Xu Zheng and Ning Hao’s black humor movies, are mainly road-themed, with the addition of adventure, beauty, and freedom, fresh and refreshing road art films.

The box office performance can only be described as "stable". Ning Hao's movie revenue will never be bad, but it is still far from a hit.

The third category, domestic comedy representative company, Happy Twist, starting from "Charlotte Annoyance", to "The Richest Man in Xihong City", "Shy Iron Fist", "Walking Alone on the Moon", etc. have steadily exceeded one billion.

The style focuses on entertainment, which is less charming than Zhou's comedy and less literary than Ning Hao's comedy. It is entertaining to death.

But in the face of increasing social pressure today, movie fans do not need preaching, literature and art, they just need a hearty laugh to relieve stress.

Lin Gao finally decided to film "Charlotte".

The quality of "Charlotte's Sorrow" is higher than that of "The Tomato Man", and it has contributed many famous memes after its release.

Dasha Chun said: "Teacher Wang, do you think my shoes are good?"

Yuan Hua's "You Tide Hai Ling Yi Jian Mei".

What kind of plum is Ma?

Qiu Ya's: "Don't call me, I'm afraid Xia Luo will misunderstand"... Many classic second creations.

After Lin Gao made up his mind, he went to Linye Entertainment the next day, threw the script to Wei Lianlian, and informed her to be responsible for the subsequent progress.

Wei Lianlian held the script in his hand and said: "Brother Lin, you have too many ideas. Before the filming of the previous film and television project started, another one came. The company's manpower is too late to handle two projects at the same time!"

Lin Gao patted his forehead and said: "Let's put the project of [Tang Detective] on hold first, and shoot [Charlotte Trouble] first. A film and television company must have a movie with a box office of one billion to support it."

"Ah?" Wei Lianlian's delicate little face was full of surprise: "Can this movie be worth one billion?"

Lin Gao rarely spoke loudly when the results came out. It was the first time that Wei Lianlian heard Lin Gao's prediction in advance and subconsciously chose to believe it.

"If my name is mentioned as a director, the box office can exceed one billion." Lin Gao said with a smile.

This is not to say that Lin Gao is arrogant. Lin Gao now has top box office appeal. A movie directed by Lin Gao and starring in it can attract some fans to pay, and he already has some die-hard fans. "Okay." Wei nodded happily, "I'm going to set up the project now, arrange the venue, and select actors."

After Wei finished speaking, he turned around and left on his high heels.

Wei Lianlian's choice of actors is to select important supporting roles and supporting roles. For example, the leading actors and supporting roles are all selected by Lin Gao himself. This is undoubtedly a kind of torture for Lin Gao who has difficulty in choosing.

Lin Gao wanted to give the role of Yuan Hua to his classmate and roommate Li Jiahang.

Li Jiahang and Yin Zheng have similar styles. They are both handsome clowns and naturally funny.

Lin Gao asked Li Jiahang to talk.

"Mr. Lin, you are looking for me." Li Jiahang's posture was reserved. With the success of Lin Gao's career, they were not as close as they were three years ago. Li Jiahang would always feel awkward in front of Lin Gao.

"We are the only two in the office, so don't be so unfamiliar. Let's call you Lao Lin." Lin Gao felt a little emotional, "I have a new movie that has been launched, and there is a character in it that is very suitable for you."

"Huh?" Li Jiahang looked surprised, "I thought you were telling me about the class reunion."

"Class reunion?" Lin Gao was stunned at first, and then quickly realized, "If you don't remind me today, I will forget it."

Tonight is the first anniversary gathering of the 10th class of drama students. Chen Chichi said it a long time ago and he agreed, but he forgot.

"Let's talk about the movie first. The scenes are moderate but the characters are funny. Are you interested?"

"Funny?" Li Jiahang frowned, "Old Lin, I want to change. Zhang Wei's role has been assigned to me as a funny character. I don't want to be funny all my life."

"This movie's box office can exceed 10 billion." Lin Gao said lightly.

Li Jiahang showed hesitation, "One billion movies is a very good resume!"

Lin Gao continued: "The company will focus on comedy movies in the future, and five comedy movies will be born in the future."

"I was born to be funny, just for comedy!" Li Jiahang said sonorously.

Good guy, as long as the money is in place, you will be flying on the road of comedy!

Lin Gao chatted with Li Jiahang for a while. After it got dark, Lin Gao took Li Jihang's car to the class reunion hotel.

Chen Chichi was the initiator of the class reunion. His purpose was to strengthen the status of the Shanghai Opera students in Lin Gao's mind, and to strengthen his status in the minds of the Shanghai Opera students. The effect is good now.

"Brother Chen, you are now a big star in the entertainment industry."

"Yeah, I told my mother that my classmate was Chen Chichi, and they were very surprised."

Chen Chichi waved her hand and said, "It was Brother Lin who gave me the opportunity, otherwise I would be no different from everyone else now."

Everyone nodded in agreement, thinking the same thing in their hearts.

"Chen Chichi, you said President Lin would come, weren't you lying to everyone?"

Everyone looked at the person who made the sound. Large clear waves were pouring down. The bright red lipstick was alluring. The white shirt highlighted her figure and carried a fresh fragrance.

Jiang Shuying, the beauty of the theater school, the sea turtle female graduate student!
