"A man must do great things, one step at a time, grow bigger and stronger, and create greater glory!"
When Lu Hao saw the new system task, the first thing that came to his mind was this line with an accent.
What is the most important thing in the entertainment industry?
It's not talent, it's not looks, it's not acting, and it's not hype...
But capital!
Yes, this is the case on Earth, and it is even more so in this world which is even more commercialized than Earth.
As long as there is capital, one can push ordinary people to the altar, turn black into white, and even force-feed shit to the audience.
In fact, most film and television companies now do this.
In the past few days, Lu Hao has carefully studied the film market in this world.
Here's another classic line: "Sorry, I'm not targeting anyone. What I'm saying is that everyone here is garbage."
Because of the rating system, all kinds of movies featuring eroticism, violence, sexual fantasy and gore are very popular.
Apart from this, there are all kinds of popcorn blockbusters. You watch them, enjoy them, and have a blast, but after watching them, you may not even remember the plot of the movie.
The reason is partly due to audience aesthetics.
Another part is that the rapid influx of capital has led to the abnormal prosperity of the entire film market.
Can you believe that a big movie can be shot in seven days?
Can you believe that the same script, the same routine, can be filmed from the first to the seventh part?
Can you believe that a star can act in several movies at the same time and his acting skills are all achieved through post-production cutouts?
When he opened the video library on the video website, the keywords that caught his eye were "big", "strongest", "romantic", "best", "rebirth", etc., which made Lu Hao almost vomit.
It’s not that there are no good directors, good scripts, and good actors, but in the entire impetuous “make quick money” market, it is inevitable that bad money drives out good money.
You spent three years making a masterpiece and earned 100 million at the box office.
But, in three years, others may have made ten or twenty films, and even if some of them lose money, the overall rate of return is still several times higher.
That's what capital is.
Only choose the favorable one, not the right one.
Such a movie world needs a savior.
Capital can make bad movies, but it can also make classics.
With 10 million system funds every month, it means that I can completely ignore the constraints of capital and shoot whatever I want.
Thinking of this, Lu Hao was inexplicably excited!
It's just an explosion!
What could be more exciting than changing the world?
…
…
"Master Lu, are you free?"
Lu Hao received a call from Chu Wen.
The name Lu Shen made him smile sweetly.
What's wrong?
What's wrong with you all?
The audience flatters me, the film critics flatter me, the system flatters me, even you, Chu Wen, have become like this?
At first he was called boss, then he was called big boss, and now he is called Lu Shen.
Where is your moral integrity?
Okay, that's okay, keep going.
"What's wrong? Tell me."
"I have some good news for you."
Chu Wen's voice was a little sweet and inexplicably soft and cute.
Lu Hao: ...
Hey, your character is about to collapse!
Are you a literary female director who is not willing to bow down to the temptation of money and spends his time drunk with poetry and wine?
What's the soft and cute route?
"What good news?"
Chu Wen smiled and said, "A film company is ready to sign me. They will provide 5 million yuan in filming funds every year, without stipulating box office returns. I proposed to shoot "Dancing Girl", and they agreed."
As a professional director, Chu Wen actually has plenty of opportunities to choose the film company.
However, her previous style... was destined to make it difficult for her to succeed.
Even if an investor is blind once, he cannot remain blind forever.
A director who is unwilling to cater to the market and has no commercial value is a waste no matter how talented he is.
Lu Hao: “Oh.”
This is expected.
Although Lu Hao did not make any money from the movie "The Piano Tuner", Chu Wen, the director, and himself, the leading actor, both became very famous.
Not to mention Chu Wen, even Lu Hao himself has received signing invitations from several film companies in the past two days.
"Are you angry?"
Hearing that Lu Hao only replied with one word and his tone was not very enthusiastic, Chu Wen asked cautiously.
"Angry? Why are you angry? Congratulations, you're finally going to film your romantic action, suspense, thriller, horror, and domineering ethics film."
Lu Hao joked.
The film "Dancing Girl" is too dark and should be rated at least 18+. Although it has some depth, it is too forceful and has no skills. It is just too hard and rough.
Lu Hao often teased her like this.
"hehe."
Chu Wen was speechless.
"Well...don't rush to congratulate them. They did agree, but there's a condition."
"What conditions?"
"They thought we had a great time working together, so they wanted to sign you as well. It's a film contract, not a year-long contract. Just one movie, one movie."
Chu Wensheng felt inexplicably guilty.
In fact, in the past two days, she had also tried to sound out Lu Hao's attitude in both open and covert ways to see if Lu Hao was willing to invest in her "Dancing Girl".
But Lu Hao always refused decisively.
No face at all.
Chu Wen couldn't force it.
After all, the movie "The Piano Tuner" became a hit, but Lu Hao didn't take a penny. He did it purely out of love.
She couldn't bear to invest in another film like "Dancing Girl" which would most likely lose money.
If you want to cheat someone, you can't just cheat one person at a time, or you'll end up fleecing them all.
