Full-time actor

Chapter 141 [140] Released, enter for awards!

"I'll just talk about my character's part!"

Seeing that Lu Xuechang was really listening humbly, Chen Yu said a little boldly: "I don't think it is necessary to broadcast all the details of Liangliang's fight. After the opponent hit him, he fell directly to the ground. That Enough with the scene of bleeding elbows!”

"Also, the part where Liangliang was detained was quite frustrating. His mother directly told the second child that Liangliang was detained. Doesn't it make people feel stronger?"

"At least it won't be that uncomfortable to watch..."

"..."

Chen Yu followed the version of the plot played in his previous life and told Lu Xuechang.

In that version, these paragraphs are actually missing.

how to say?

The version finally released may not be the one the director thinks is the best, but it is definitely the best version after compromise by all parties.

Moreover, many of them are actually the version that the director is most optimistic about.

Unless your film is reviewed by the radio and television, you will be allowed to make changes; otherwise, the version released will be the version that the director thinks he is most satisfied with. Otherwise, why did he choose this version to release? Right!

Therefore, the paragraph that Chen Yu is talking about is the released version of "Kara is a Dog" in the previous life. The two paragraphs in it are passed by in passing.

After listening to Chen Yu's words, Lu Xuechang did not laugh it off. He actually thought about what Chen Yu said.

Snapped!

He suddenly clapped his hands: "Yes, why should I take photos of the details of Liang Liang and the person? This is a process of misunderstanding?"

"It's enough for both elbows to be injured, leaving plenty of room for the audience's imagination!"

Lu Xuechang's eyes became brighter and brighter, and the way he looked at Chen Yu was completely different.

"You kid, you hit me, haha!"

Lu Xuechang looked very happy: "I have changed these two paragraphs. Is there anything else left?"

He asked with some urgency.

After Chen Yu thought about it for a while, he told Lu Xuechang some details, basically based on the movie version of his previous life.

At this time, Lu Xuechang really looked at Chen Yu with admiration.

This guy has some stuff!

The two points just made are still too subtle.

I guess I was afraid that I would talk about him, so I kept it.

"Young boy, you will definitely be director material in the future!"

Lu Xuechang finally figured it out. What Chen Yu said was absolutely to the point.

"..."

Chen Yu was actually sweating a little.

This is not a talent for directing, it is clearly a talent for rebirth!

But what Lu Xuechang said is true.

As a director, Chen Yu has an advantage over other directors.

He has actually seen the whole movie, and good movie editing must be good. He just needs to follow the editing, and it will be faster than in his previous life.

While others may need a month of continuous debugging to edit, Chen Yu estimated that it would only take one day.

This is where the reborn becomes perverted.

The same goes for filming and narrating a play. He just needs to follow the narration. Just like when he is acting out the plot, he has pictures in his mind.

"We can't wait until we win the Best Actor Award and then switch careers to become a director!"

The director's right to speak is definitely different; just like Jiang Wen turned to director after reaching the top as an actor.

Of course Chen Yu is interested in directing, and he is also very confident. After all, he has such a huge advantage in directing films compared to other directors.

However, it's obviously not possible now. At least he has to wait until he gets a few Best Actor crowns.

Otherwise, you won’t have the confidence to shoot.

"When does school start?"

"number 1?"

Lu Xuechang suddenly asked.

"Yes, No. 1!"

In a few days, Chen Yu's drama school is about to start.

"Then before school starts, come over every day to check on me and give me some advice!"

"This movie, Director Feng and I, as well as Mr. Wang, have quite different differences!"

Lu Xuechang suddenly revealed a piece of information to Chen Yu, and Chen Yu couldn't help but be stunned.

"It's just the release date and the award entry!"

Lu Xuechang whispered, and Chen Yu couldn't help but say "Oh."

Release, enter for awards!

These are indeed the two most important points of a movie.

"Director Lu, can you tell me something?"

Chen Yu saw that Wang Zhongjun and the others had already gone out anyway, so he took Lu Xuechang and chatted as usual. I guess Lu Xuechang was quite satisfied with the few points that Chen Yu mentioned just now, and Lu Xuechang didn't think much about it: "It's just for the screening. Regarding time, I hope the sooner the better, Director Feng and Mr. Wang, they have decided to do the Lunar New Year stall!"

"But, as you know, there will be a super blockbuster in this year's Lunar New Year holiday!"

Zhang Yimou, "Hero"!

This is a film that cannot be beaten at all. Not to mention Lu Xuechang, Feng Xiaogang did not dare to face it head-on.

As a reborn person, Chen Yu knew how terrifying this movie was.

"Hero", this is a controversial film that started the myth of mainland China's film industry's box office exceeding 2 million.

Although many people feel that this movie is not good, especially in 02, there are even more criticisms; but Chen Yu, as a person who has experienced it, knows how much this movie has contributed to the Chinese film industry.

No matter how many tricks Lao Mouzi has done in his later years, the release of "Hero" is really not bad.

You can call this movie rubbish, but it grossed 2.5 million at the box office in the mainland and 1.7 million US dollars globally, which is about 14 billion yuan.

It also caused the film bureau to make corresponding increases in the movie's box office share.

What is this concept.

As early as 2000, as early as 1992, distributors began asking theaters to adjust their box office sharing ratios.

Because the money received by the issuer is really too little.

At that time, the production and distribution parties accounted for 35% of the accounts, but for ten years, the theater chain did not make any concessions.

Until the emergence of "Hero", its share ratio was unprecedentedly increased to 40%.

Subsequently, the Film Bureau issued an approval to increase the share of all future films to 37%.

Lao Mouzi helped all the filmmakers get an extra 2% share.

Since then, when Zhang Yimou's two films "House of Flying Daggers" and "The City of Gold" were released, they continued to increase the proportion of the producer and distributor's share of the account by several percentage points.

Since then, the bill-sharing ratio between domestic film studios and exhibitors has remained at a relatively stable "2010% to 43%", and eventually evolved into a ratio of 57% and % in .

It's Lao Mouzi again.

When "The Thirteen Hairpins" was released, New Picture Company proposed to the theaters to increase the film studio's share of the bill from 43% to 45%, which triggered a collective boycott from theaters and theater chains.

In the end, the film bureau intervened, forcing both parties to make concessions. Some theaters raised the minimum ticket price by 5-10 yuan as a measure to make up for the losses.

This is a capitalist. He will never allow himself to lose money, and he will not give in even if the consumers bear the responsibility.

4 times!

Lao Mouzi raised his share 4 times in total. In ten years, it has increased from 35% to 45%!

Chen Yu really admired him for this.

He was the only one who managed to make the theaters give in, and not even the Wolf Warriors in the future could do it.

Regardless of the fact that some of Zhang Yimou's films look like Erezhuan, his contribution to Chinese cinema is definitely obvious to all.

China's box office can hit new highs again and again in the future, which is actually not unrelated to his repeated efforts to get a share.

The higher the share, the more the film industry will earn, and investors will invest more. This is a virtuous circle; rather than the theater chain blindly raising ticket prices, from 15-20-30...and then in the future 45, 50!

Each of these theater chains is more ruthless than the other.

"Hero, I definitely can't beat you!"

Lu Xue often said it was very free and easy, but in fact everyone knew this fact.

how to spell?

How can a film with a small budget of 200 million compete with a blockbuster film with an investment of 3000 million US dollars?

Can ants beat elephants?

So Lu Xuechang's worries are normal. He doesn't want to go head-to-head with a film like this.

So it would definitely be better in his opinion to go to theaters sooner.

"There is also a prize!"

“Needless to say, next year’s world’s three major awards will be the Golden Rooster!”

Lu Xuechang still attaches great importance to this domestic award. Although the current Golden Rooster is not as valuable as the Golden Horse opposite it, no matter how rubbish it is, it is still the first award in the mainland film industry.

Baihua and Huading are even worse!

The status of the Golden Rooster Award in China has always been the palace of filmmakers.

"What I mean is, submit it early this year, and the deadline is just 3 days away!"

“You can’t submit it in September!”

"But Mr. Wang and the others still want to fight head-on!"

"Next year's Golden Rooster will be with "Hero"!"

Everyone knows that next year's "Hero" will definitely be the big winner, and Golden Rooster will definitely stand out and have no rivals.

“However, this year’s Golden Rooster opponents are also very strong!”

"Chen Kaige's "With You" is definitely a favorite to win the award!"

Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou are currently the two most unavoidable directors in China; you can say that Kaizi is good, but that was after "The Promise" in 05.

At present, Brother Kaizi can compete with Mouzi, and he is also a hero.

Of course Lu Xuechang also had ambitions.

After all, he also graduated from the Nortel Directing Department. His classmates Lou Ye, Wang Xiaoshuai, and Zhang Yuan have won three world awards. They have already achieved something, but he is one level behind.

Can Lu Xuechang not be in a hurry?

"Director Lu, can I tell you my opinion?"

Chen Yu suddenly came to Luxue Changdao.

"Come on, let's chat!"

Lu Xuechang was also depressed after being criticized by Feng Xiaogang and Wang Zhongjun in the past few days, so he vented his bitterness to Chen Yu.

"As for the release, I actually support the opinions of Director Feng and Mr. Wang!"

"Look, usually, when a new movie is released, would you rush to the cinema to watch it?"

"Watching movies, some can do it, some can't!"

"When "Hero" is released, do you think everyone will go see it?"

"definitely will!"

Chen Yu directly answered for Lu Xuechang: "Because this movie is so popular and the publicity is overwhelming, many people will definitely be interested!"

Otherwise, how could the mainland box office revenue of 2.5 million come from?

At present, other domestic movies, let alone over 1000 million, can rank among the top ten at the box office of the year with million!

Except for a few major directors or domestically imported blockbusters, if a movie wanted to earn 1000 million yuan, in 02, that was definitely a fantasy.

“Many people will walk into the cinema and buy tickets immediately!”

"What if some people don't buy tickets? That will definitely be shared with our movie!"

"I understand this. Director Feng and Mr. Wang have analyzed it with me!"

Blockbuster effect.

This is the reason why many movies in later generations were released together with blockbusters; in addition to increasing the box office of blockbusters, busy theaters also provided opportunities for other different types of movies.

In fact, it can earn more at the box office than usual.

This has been verified by countless movies in later generations; people like Feng Xiaogang are just guessing, but Chen Yu is certain.

"Kara is a Dog" was released at the same time as "Heroes", so the pros definitely outweigh the cons.

In the previous life, "Kara is a Dog" was actually released more than a month later than "Hero", but it still reaped some dividends and took 1200 million at the box office, ranking among the top ten box office in 2003!

In this life, Chen Yu feels that it might be better to release them at the same time.

But this is definitely not his decision. Look at the negotiations between Lu Xuechang and Hua Yi.

"However, if you want to participate in the award, I feel that the sooner the better!"

“Try it this year, maybe it will be better than next year!”

In "Hero", Lu Xuechang will definitely not be able to beat him; Chen Kaige will also not be able to beat him, but he will definitely be easy to beat.

That's the difference.

"Actually, I think so too!"

"Okay, I understand, then I will take the time to submit the copy to the film bureau in the next few days!"

Lu Xuechang seemed to have made some kind of decision. In fact, although he hesitated in his heart, he lacked a final suggestion.

Although Chen Yu's words were useless, they gave Lu Xuechang a sense of affirmation.

This is enough.

"In a moment, watch it with me a few more times!"

Lu Xuechang said to Chen Yu with a smile, and Chen Yu had no choice but to nod: "Okay!"

He was actually... really about to vomit.

It is true that you can watch a good movie many times without getting tired of it, provided that you want to watch it once in a while instead of watching it once and continuing to watch it again.

The food is so delicious that you will get tired of it if you eat too much!

So in the next few days, Chen Yu lived in considerable pain.

Fortunately, the start of school is getting closer.

On September 2002, 9, the day for the opening of the Chinese Opera School finally arrived.

"Relief!"

"Finally freed!"

Chen Yu really almost collapsed after watching movies these days. Who would have thought that Lu Xuechang was actually a patient with obsessive-compulsive disorder and was obsessed with details.

"If I ever give him any advice again, I'll be a dog!"

On the morning of September 9st, while Chen Yu was getting dressed, he was swearing a poisonous oath on the other side!
