Super entertainment red envelope

Chapter 315 "Scientific Wonders"!
The preliminary preparations for "Baby Project" have been in progress.

As Hu Lei said, tedious foreplay is also time-consuming, and each item is indispensable.

The cost of this movie is not small. Li Zhifan participated in the investment in the name of the studio as the screenwriter, director and male lead, and the share ratio only accounted for 18.6% of the income after the box office share. Jufeng’s production and publicity before and after the contract Under, also accounted for only 29.77%.

The remaining share goes to those investors.

Among them, after deducting encryption keys, service fees, film special fund fees and other agency fees, the box office share still accounts for 3.7% of revenue.

This is actually an unspoken rule, and it is entirely for the theaters under China Film Group to use this share to buy a high-ranking movie.

The same is true for several other theater chains. After collecting a certain percentage of the box office share, they have to take away 0.5%~4% of the net profit that should have belonged to the investor and producer.

Other investors and joint issuers will each share a sum, and the money will be distributed.

Li Zhifan and Jufeng are the main creators. It seems that such a share ratio is a bit disadvantageous, but in fact the film is still in the early stage, and both parties have already made a lot of money.

The first is the 5% box office profit share that was previously sold to a listed company at a price of 50 million Hong Kong dollars. This is a real net profit. Li Zhifan alone can get more than 8000 million yuan.

This kind of money-making speed is not uncommon in the film industry, so the main creator is not losing money.

hotel.

After recording the Lantern Festival Joyful Party on Mango Channel, Hu Lei didn't go back to his room, and followed Li Zhifan directly to his room.

The script of "Baby Project" is stored in the USB flash drive and has been made into an electronic file by Jufeng.

Hu Lei swiped the mouse quickly at first, but after reading a few pages, he started reading again.

Li Zhifan sat aside and yawned again and again, finally unable to resist the temptation of sleepiness, he went back to the bedroom early to sleep.

As for the safety of the script and Hu Lei's character, he is not worried. The film has already been approved, the script has been reviewed and archived, and many investors and sponsors have read it, so he can rest assured.

next morning.

Li Zhifan got up and walked out of the room, only to see Hu Lei still sitting in front of the computer.

After not sleeping all night, Hu Lei is now unshaven, with dark circles and bloodshot eyes.

He wrote something stroke by stroke on the paper, and among the piles of paper at hand, there was a tissue from the restaurant, on which he also wrote a lot of notes.

"Brother Lei, what are you doing?"

Li Zhifan asked curiously.

Hu Lei didn't seem to hear it, Li Zhifan was about to reach out to push, but he turned his head: "Sit back and do your homework in advance, the black boss in this play, is the role fixed?"

"I'm not so sure either!"

Li Zhifan said, "Jufeng is responsible for this matter."

"Let me act!"

Hu Lei said directly, "I have analyzed every character. Although the role of Hei Boss is small, it is very important, and the age span is relatively large. I want to try it!"

"what?"

Li Zhifan was very surprised. Hu Lei is only in his 40s, so he wants to play the role of a grandfather at all ages?

Did he hear it right?
The original black boss in "Baby Project" is played by Chen Baoguo, a sinister and vicious person.

His appearance was bleak and cold. In order to fulfill his dead son's wish, he did not hesitate to spend 3000 million Hong Kong dollars to buy the newborn baby.

Especially when he learned that this was not his grandson, he actually wanted to freeze the baby to death, his sinister intentions were outrageous.

Although Boss Hei was mentally confused under the double blow of the pain of bereavement and the revelation of the baby's identity, he was finally defeated by the painful reality.

But the challenge of this role is also very high.

In the Xiangjiang film circle, there are many professional villains, but not everyone can play this role.

Seeing Hu Lei's expectant eyes, Li Zhifan had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll call Director Liao and ask."

After speaking, Li Zhifan went to the side, picked up the phone, and dialed Liao Feng's private number.

Each film crew has an assistant director who specializes in casting.

In the eyes of many people, this is a fat job with many unspoken opportunities.

Even some famous actors have to maintain a good relationship with them. In this circle, connections are very important.

Apart from male and female leading roles, Liao Feng would not bother with the choice of other supporting roles.

But Liao Feng was very happy to hear that Hu Lei wanted to play this role and was planning to be the first assistant director.

Because this kind of actor-level joining is also a kind of guarantee for the film, and it is also helpful for Li Zhifan, a new director.

"Good good!"

Liao Feng agreed immediately, "Tell Xiaolei, this matter is settled like this, he shouldn't go back on his word!"

"He will definitely not regret it!"

Li Zhifan glanced at Hu Lei who was once again lying in front of the computer concentrating on his homework, and couldn't help but smile.

"That's fine!"

Liao Feng said, "By the way, the preliminary preparations will probably be over by the end of the month. Do you have any plans to start filming?"

"Pick a good day!"

Li Zhifan said, "The press conference should be held more grandly. You are good at this. Let me know when you set a date."

"OK, no problem!"

Liao Feng smiled, "By the way, "I Am a Passerby" will be released on the tenth day of the lunar new year. It's been a few days. There is a press conference in Beijing on the day of the release. Can you adjust the schedule?"

"Let Director Yu discuss this matter with Old Zhao!"

Li Zhifan said, "I will try my best to cooperate with the schedule that can be adjusted."

In the past few days, he has appeared on several variety shows for "I Am a Passerby", including two shows on Mango Channel.

It is an obligation for an actor to promote his film, and it is clearly written in this contract.

However, Li Zhifan has been busy with too many things this year, the Spring Festival Gala, and "Singer", so the promotion of the movie is only on variety shows, and some activities with conflicting schedules are all done by Fu Ding and the others. .

However, even Li Zhifan himself is not very optimistic about the box office of the movie "I Am a Passerby".

In addition, this is a comedy with a small investment and a small cost, as long as it is not a one-day trip.

After hanging up the phone, Li Zhifan walked up to Hu Lei and said, "It's done!"

"I heard it all!"

Hu Lei put down his pen and stretched, looked at the time, and said in surprise, "It's already eight o'clock? No, I have to go to sleep quickly, I'm too sleepy!"

"I should go too!"

Li Zhifan looked at his watch, "Today I'm going to Nanjin to record Jiangsu Satellite TV's Lantern Festival Gala, and then I will record a variety show with them. I guess I won't be back until tomorrow afternoon. Let's talk in detail then."

"Then come back and talk!"

Hu Lei yawned and got up, put away the pile of various papers on the table, and walked away shaking his head.

……

After more than a month, Li Zhifan came to Nanjin again, which was completely different from the previous time when he came to record the New Year's Eve.

The most obvious point is that there are more fans at the airport.

In fact, Li Zhifan has felt this change since the end of the new year.

In the past, there were only more than 20 fans who picked up the plane, and the most one time was only half a hundred.

But it’s different now, as soon as he left the airport, a dense group of people shouted his name, held up his signboard, and at a glance, they found that there were almost no fans mixed with other people.

Another change is that there are significantly more middle-aged and elderly people who recognize him.

In the past, he was only recognized by young people or his fans, and when he was flying in first class, only flight attendants came to ask him for an autograph
It’s different now, the age group who knows him has obviously expanded. When I got on the plane, there was an old lady who was flying in first class, and I found him in the VIP room.

This is all thanks to the Spring Festival Gala stage, because the longest thing he hears now is:

"Hey, you are the singer who sang "The Chinese"!"

"Young man, are you the one who sang with Tao Jun at the Spring Festival Gala?"

"You are... Li Zhifan, right? I watched the Spring Festival Gala, and my son and daughter like you very much!"

anyway.

The situation encountered at Nanjin Airport today was obviously bigger than every time before, especially compared with the time when he boarded the plane at Changsha 10 minutes ago, Li Zhifan wondered if someone had announced his itinerary?
Unlike other celebrities, Li Zhifan never announces his itinerary to the public.

One is that he doesn't like being hyped on the Internet because of these external reasons, and the other is that the current fans are crazy, especially those who give expensive gifts. The money they spend may be their living expenses for several months.

Finally, it is the personal safety of fans.

Just like today's scene, with a fan group that can't see the end at a glance, if there is a stampede accident, he is the biggest responsibility, and he will feel uneasy for the rest of his life.

While Li Zhifan was busy discussing with the airport staff how to deal with it, four or five young people in uniform came up behind him, and the first man said: "Mr. Come with me!"

"Where did it go?"

Li Zhifan was taken aback, looked at the direction he pointed, and asked in surprise, "In the airport?"

"Well, if it weren't for today's battle, they probably wouldn't let us in. Hurry up and let's go! It will affect the order of the airport!"

"it is good!"

Li Zhifan immediately nodded in agreement, and followed along with Zhao Yiduo, Zhang Yao and others.

These young people also worked very hard, helping to carry things and escorting them around, which made Li Zhifan feel a little dazed.

Coming out of the back door dedicated to ground staff, I immediately saw a bus parked at the door.

The words "TV station car" are exaggeratedly written on it.

"Mr. Li, please first!"

"it is good!"

As soon as I got on the bus, I found that there were three other people in the car besides the driver, and this car was not like an ordinary bus. There were sofas, reclining chairs and a small conference table in the back.

The three people in the car saw Li Zhifan coming up, and the only woman among them came up with a smile: "Mr. Li Zhifan, I am Shang Jie, the producer of the "Science Wonders" program group, welcome to our program!"

This "Scientific Spectacle" is what Li Zhifan is going to record at the same time today, a variety show on Jiangsu Satellite TV... This show was related to science a few years ago, but it is always profitable to make a show, and it invites big-name stars, Another Olympic champion, how can I invite you if you don’t have money?
So this show is becoming more and more variety show, more and more entertaining, and the content of the contestants is also becoming "topic", "controversial", and "comedy effect".

Scientificity has also become a slogan on the lips, and the actual content of the program is really very little related to science.

The audience has been criticizing it for a long time, and the original batch of true science fans have already been lost.

But the program group not only did not change, but intensified, because although the true science fans left, the true variety show fans came, and these fans were more than the true science fans, and they were easier to deceive and coax than the true science fans.

Li Zhifan's understanding of this show is still a few years ago.

At that time, he loved watching this science program, but he didn't pay attention to the changes in recent years.

Basically, he hasn't watched much TV programs since his junior year, and he might as well play a few ranking games if he has that time.

And after entering the entertainment industry, let alone watching variety shows, I don't even have time to play games. If I have that time, I might as well catch up on sleep!
There are two reasons for coming to this show.

One is to advertise for "I am a passerby", and the program group and the crew have signed an agreement. In this issue, there is a challenge project that will use the program content of "I am a passerby".

Another thing is that there is another challenge project in this issue. The program team said it is related to music, so I would like to invite Li Zhifan, who has an absolute sense of pitch, to be a witness.

After receiving this announcement, whether it was from the perspective of promoting the movie or from the perspective of his personal interests, he readily agreed.

Seeing the people from the production unit, Li Zhifan didn't have any airs, and smiled straightforwardly: "Hello, producer, everyone!"

"You are welcome!"

Shang Jie and the others exchanged a few words with Li Zhifan, waited for the car to start, and quietly left the airport before the topic entered today's program.

This is to let Li Zhifan have a prior understanding, but the specific content and steps were not told to him.

Just tell him that the first item is to test the observation ability, and the second item is to test the comprehensive ability of hearing, memory, and hand speed.

The two projects have one thing in common, that is, one of the PK is a newcomer who challenged himself to succeed in the first few episodes of the new season, and the other is a veteran who stayed on the show after a few seasons of big waves.

Shang Jie said that Li Zhifan came to be a guest. In fact, he is the same as the audience at the scene. He is not a participant in the challenge project, so there is no need to know too much about it. You just need to express your impressions after the challenge is over. .

Apart from him, there were other guests at the scene, and they were all the same as him.

When Li Zhifan asked why the guests and the audience couldn't understand too much detail, Shang Jie said: "In this way, when you watch the game, you will not feel shocked, and your immediate reaction will be unnatural. Of course, the host There will be detailed explanations before and after the competition, and there will also be a professor from Peking University on the scene. He already knows all the events well before the competition.

"Oh!"

Li Zhifan was skeptical, but more curious.

He is very much looking forward to seeing these two projects, and has already begun to organize his language, how should he express his surprise by then.
