Entertainment: God-Level Director Starts With Low-Cost Challenge

"Don! John!"

Gao Xiu gritted his teeth and looked at the audition page. The ranking of "Old Boys" hung high on it. He couldn't believe it, this was his classmate?

"Gao Xiu, can I come in?"

The voice of his father, Gao Tianyou, came from the door.

Gao Xiu hurriedly took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and said, "Dad, come in!"

Squeak!

The door was pushed open, and Gao Tianyou, whose hair was meticulously combed, walked over to Gao Xiu's side in fitted pajamas.

"Dad, are you still up at this late?"

"Are you satisfied with your ranking?"

However, Gao Tianyou seemed to have not heard what his son said, so he took a chair and sat down, looking at the son he had raised with his own hands.

Gao Xiu shook his head bitterly: "Not very satisfied!"

"In fact, this result is within my expectations!"

"what?"

Gao Xiu opened his mouth, he really didn't understand what his father meant.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm not saying that you didn't shoot well. Actually... I'm quite satisfied!"

Gao Tianyou smiled, but his eyes looked elsewhere: "I graduated from CLP, my first work was a water-testing work that your grandfather funded me to make, the movie was not released, and finally I got it at the Pingshan Film Festival. , got some good reviews!"

"The final CTS rating is 7.5!"

"I said that, do you understand?"

Gao Tianyou said lightly, and Gao Xiu shook his head as if he didn't understand.

"I can give him an 8 for this movie, maybe even higher!"

"But the box office is not directly related to ratings!"

"Sometimes a movie with an explosive reputation may have a waterloo at the box office; although you are shooting a youth-themed movie, you want to attract young people, but it is too literary!"

"Literary films, what you should know in our industry - box office poison!"

"And at this point, the students are already asleep..."

"That is to say, your main viewing group has yet to exert its strength!"

Gao Tianyou suddenly stood up and patted Gao Xiu on the shoulder: "Let's see tomorrow, son!"

"Dad, since you know, why do you still support—"

"Support you to make this movie, right?"

Gao Tianyou walked over to the computer that Gao Xiu opened, and saw "Old Boy" which was ranked first, his eyes stretched slightly, and he said, "Because, compared to the box office, the ratings are within our control!"

"No director can guess whether his movie will be a hit at the box office after its release!"

"What he can be sure of with a high probability is that his film is well done!"

"If you can't score 8 points, what's the point of you participating in this audition?"

In a word, it was a complete awakening of Gao Xiu.

"Your dad came from a literary film, so of course choose the most secure type!"

"You make a comedy that exploded at the box office, with a rating of 7.9, would you like it?"

unwilling.

Destined to be eliminated in the audition, Gao Xiu certainly wouldn't do that.

"That's why I support you in making this movie!"

"Accumulating filming experience and word of mouth is more important to you than participating in this variety show!"

"Everyone knows that the genre of comedy can be a hit, but—"

"There are both word-of-mouth and box office...too few!"

"And it's hard too!"

"Comedy seems to be easy to shoot with a low threshold, but it is harder than all genres to get a high score!"

It is precisely because Gao Tianyou understands certain rules of this industry that he speaks these words so earnestly with his son and so heartfelt.

"Whether the movie is good or not can be determined by an excellent director; whether it's good or not... it's up to fate!"

The difference is one word, but the meaning is very different.

Good-looking, refers to the box office; good, refers to the rating.

Under the condition that the audition score reaches 8 in order to advance, 90% of the directors will obviously choose the most secure first score, and then the box office.

And Tang Han, he is the only one among all the directors who knows that the movie box office is not popular.

After all, the market in the previous life has already verified it.

Therefore, he only needs to choose a film with a score of 8 or more.

"Dad, can I—"

"Okay, I'll do it for you tomorrow!"

Gao Tianyou seemed to know what Gao Xiu was going to say, and the moment he opened the door, he turned around and said something.

"Although I just said that the director's experience and word-of-mouth are more important than participating in the competition, but... With this platform to improve ourselves, we will definitely have to rush it!"

After that, Gao Tianyou's figure disappeared from Gao Xiu's sight.

"..."

Gao Xiu helplessly sat down under Gao Tianyou's seat.

He completely knew why Tang Han's "Old Boy" was so good.

Comedy, plus the popularization of moviegoers.

More importantly, those guys who like old boys, thieves like to stay up late!

In terms of genre, his "Classmates, Pan Huiru!" "has lost.

However, Gao Xiu was really unwilling.

He has always been a favorite of the director department. If he is compared with his classmates like this, whoever changes it will not be very cool.

"This guy must be very awkward, right?"

Gao Xiu could almost imagine Tang Han's expression at this time.

"It's just, this is just the beginning!"

"I can't, it doesn't mean that others can't blow you up!"

In this circle, there are characters with sky-high backgrounds.

"Tang Han, let's make you happy for a few days!"

Gao Xiu pursed his lips, and he didn't take "Old Boy" to heart anymore. It was destined to be a flash in the pan, so why should he pay attention?

As for whether he really didn't pay attention, probably only Gao Xiu himself knew.

...

Just because Gao Xiu doesn't pay attention doesn't mean others don't pay attention.

For example, Jing Chu, he has been staring at the results of "Old Boy" since the early morning.

From number one on the click list to number one at the box office, Jing Chu's expression did not change much.

In fact, at the beginning of the audition, he thought about the worst start, which is now.

Therefore, Jing Chu still expected this achievement for "Old Boy".

"Young Master Jing, do you want to—"

"No need, just observe for two more days!"

"Did the house move?"

Jing Chu asked He Yunwen who was beside him, and He Yunwen nodded: "Many scalpers have already started to set up voting groups, which should be from the National Film Group!"

"It's okay... Now many netizens are also very refined, they are watching!"

Jing Chu casually opened the movie "Old Boy": "I'll take a look first, why is this movie ranked first!"

It doesn't matter if you click the first one, this is Xia Fan's credit.

No. 1 at the box office, that's not what Xia Fan said.

And Clockwork Su also told him that Tang Han's "Old Boy" was not bad at all.

With such curiosity, Jing Chu clicked to buy.

In disguise, he added 10 yuan to Tang Han's box office.

But in order to study the opponent, Jing Chu felt that the 10 yuan was obviously worth it.

It's the same sentence - knowing yourself and your enemy, you can win a hundred battles.
