superstar director

Chapter 253
"The Promise" is an oriental fantasy epic film directed by Chen Kaige, starring Korean actor Zhang Dongjian, Japanese actor Hiroyuki Sanada, China's popular first-line idol Zhang Bozhi, Xie Tingfeng and others.

This super blockbuster film with a total investment of [-] million Huaxia coins can be said to have shaken the entire Asian film world.

In today's world, there is no "Hero" directed by Zhang Yimou who has set the banner of Chinese blockbusters before. Even now, Fa Ge's few films with a box office of over one billion or even two billion, the total investment is controlled at 20 million within.

However, as the potential of the film market continues to be realized, the box office has been increasing year after year, and the prices of the entire industry are rising. In contrast, the increase in film production costs can be said to be inevitable.

It's just that other directors are still being cautious, trying to control the production cost as much as possible, but director Chen Kaige's new film this time has a strong financial backing with the investment of many film and television companies in the three countries. The investment of [-] million sounds scary, but Specifically allocated to various film and television companies, in fact, the most is [-] million.

However, the box office in the Chinese film market has repeatedly hit new highs, and now "God of Gamblers" has broken through 20 billion. Many investors are almost losing their minds.

A "God of Gamblers" with an investment of [-] million, the domestic box office income excluding costs and other expenses, earned nearly [-] million profits for the production company behind it, plus other overseas shares and profits, a total income of [-] Around [-] million is easy.

In such a short period of time, such a huge profit can be reaped easily, who would be indifferent?
Especially in Japan and South Korea, the domestic markets are small and the competition is fierce. They are almost crazy to worry about this, but they find that their counterparts in China can easily make a lot of money. How not to be jealous or surprised.

Therefore, when domestic capital is still hesitating how to enter the market, foreign film and television companies are the first to test the waters of cooperation.

This "The Promise" is the first collaboration between three large film and television companies in the Three Kingdoms.Everyone has great expectations for it, aiming at the 20 billion domestic box office record that "God of Gamblers" just created this summer.

The media of the Three Kingdoms seemed to be excited about the new year, trying their best to dig out any news information about this drama. Everyone in the entertainment industry was robbed of the limelight by this drama with a huge investment.

However, Ning Sheng didn't pay much attention to this at first, because in his memory, in his previous life, this was a bad movie that "left a name in history".Not only did the box office revenue fail to recover the production cost, but the plot and characters were constantly complained by movie fans, and even an expert cut a spoof masterpiece "A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun"!
However, none of this has anything to do with Ning Sheng. He has no plans to direct a movie yet, and while working on the post-production of the TV series, he is also thinking about his next plan.

Although Xingtong Studio is only serving himself now, and has neither signed other artists nor accepted other jobs, everyone's enthusiasm for work is higher than those of those big companies.

Because since the opening of the studio, the net profit of each year has been in the unit of [-] million, and the boss Ning Sheng is not a stingy one, and the annual bonus is more than ten times their salary, so now the whole Every employee of the studio has at least hundreds of thousands of deposits.

It can be said that they are the same age and the highest paid in the same industry.

As for the income of the studio, in addition to the sales of Ning Sheng's TV series and novels, they are also developing a new business of comics. Of course, their comics do not require the authors to think about the plot, they only need to make comics based on the novels and TV series. OK.

For example, "The Legend of Condor Heroes", and "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji", which is currently in post-production.

In order to prevent the audience from knowing the plot in advance, Ning Sheng decided that the novel of "Yi Tian Shou Long Ji" will be published one month after the TV series is released. This will not only keep everyone's attention to this drama, but also promote the novel and maintain the popularity of the media.

In addition to these, Xingtong Studio also has another income, which is return on investment. Of course, there is only one investment goal, and that is Ning Hao. For his two crazy series of movies, the first one is completely invested by Ning Sheng, and the second one is completely invested by Ning Sheng. Ning Chen's investment in the second film accounted for one-third. Of the two films, the first brought nearly 9000 million in returns to the studio, and the second brought nearly [-] million.

As a personal studio, Xingtong Studio is definitely very successful, and Ning Cheng, the boss, is also the most loved by everyone. However, now that Ning Cheng is thinking, it seems that he really should suspend the development of film and television convenience, because these One day, he was bored and read a lot of fan letters from the record company.

How long has it been since Ning Cheng sang on stage?Ning Chen himself almost forgot what it was like to sing on stage, but those lovely fans did not.

Especially the many fans who wrote to him, they all have a wish, or expectation, that is, they hope that Ning Sheng can hold a concert.

Because no matter it was during the Chaoyang group period, but after Ning Sheng went solo, Ning Sheng really hadn't held a real concert.

Not to mention concerts, Ning Sheng has never even held a small fan club.The closest contact he has with fans is when the new album is released and the fan meeting for promotional activities.

Some fans lamented in their letters that she has liked Ning Sheng since high school, and now that she has graduated from university and is about to get married, she still hasn't been able to see Ning Sheng's concert.Every time she hears other people's fans happily talking about how wonderful, hot, and exciting the star's concert is, she can only wear headphones, listen to Ning Sheng's album, and imagine the concert scene in her mind!

Maybe it's been a long time since he left the stage, Ning Cheng thought so.

The next day, Mr. Zheng called, "Ning Cheng, did you forget something?"

Ning Cheng was a little confused, "What are you talking about? What did I forget?"

Mr. Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "You really forgot, you brat! Let me remind you, Twelve Women's Band, remember?"

Ning Cheng was taken aback for a moment, and then said oops, "I'm sorry, I've been really busy and confused recently, and I forgot that they are going to debut."

Mr. Zheng said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense, come to the company for a meeting, you, the promoter, have to do something, don't forget your bet with that music professor, people are waiting to see what you can do! "

Ning Cheng said, "I see, I'll go there right away! Let's talk when we get there!"

Ning Sheng packed up and hurried to the record company. At the same time, on the same day, Silver Cup Records' Rising Sun officially released their first official album "Rising Sun"!
On the other hand, Kwon Boa, an international student from South Korea, also officially started the recording of her first Chinese album with the support of SM Entertainment!
