Chapter 395: Let's get the big one (please subscribe and vote)
Obviously, there is no need to think about the next movie because it has already been thought out.
"Lost in Thailand".
I would like to point out here that the success of the movie "Lost in Thailand" was actually a milestone. Before "Lost in Thailand", there was actually a huge gap between domestic and imported films, and it was even difficult to catch up.
However, "Lost in Thailand" was the first film to surpass imported films in terms of moviegoers. More importantly, at a time when everyone was advocating the era of blockbusters and the so-called Hollywood-style blockbuster industrial productions, "Lost in Thailand" made cinemas boil and made the industry begin to reflect.
This is not a blockbuster movie, but it has achieved huge success, and at the same time it has made more people who do not watch movies or even have no interest in movies want to go to the cinema.
In addition, the number of viewers of "Lost in Thailand" is also extremely high, which is much higher than that of Hollywood, and it is twice as much as the highest number of viewers of domestic films. It is precisely because of the success of "Lost in Thailand" that it directly led to the rise of domestic genre films.
As for the story behind the movie "Lost in Thailand", such as copyright ownership, the so-called internal strife, etc., that is another story.
This will not be discussed here for the time being.
Let’s get back to the movie itself.
Now that the first "Lost on Journey" has been a success, it seems that the final box office will definitely not reach 2 billion. This also proves the current status of the film industry. After all, everyone is still interested in blockbusters.
However, the success of the movie "Lost on Journey" during the Spring Festival has proved one thing, that is, as long as the script is good, it can still achieve good results.
The most realistic situation is cost return.
Your blockbuster, at least a blockbuster costs hundreds of millions to produce, so if you want to make a profit, it will be 1 billion or 2 billion.
But for a small-budget film with a budget of less than 10 million, then 300 to 400 million might be enough to make money.
Take "Lost on Journey" for example. Its final box office is estimated to be more than 400 million yuan away from that of "The End of the World", because the blockbuster "The End of the World" actually reversed the decline and rebounded in the end.
How to say it? ?
After all, the audience's aesthetic taste is gradually guided by the subject matter, because in the past two years or so, various so-called blockbusters have been everywhere, and it is precisely because of this that everyone pays special attention to blockbusters, and the audience even feels that they will not watch anything other than blockbusters.
During the Chinese New Year, some people have basically no chance to watch movies because of social engagements or other reasons. But after returning to work, they naturally have time, so they want to watch "The End of the World".
This is the idea of first-tier and second-tier cities, which is often different from that of third-tier and fourth-tier cities.
This is the reason why the box office of "Lost on Journey" declined and the small reversal of "The Day After Tomorrow" happened.
Yu Xiaoshu was actually not surprised by this.
He never thought that he could completely turn the situation around with a movie like "Lost on Journey".
If we really want to turn things around, we have to rely on "Lost in Thailand".
This is the film that can truly break and refresh countless records, leading the entire market to thoroughly reflect, and allowing genre films to truly become a big killer that will make a hundred flowers bloom.
Now, after all, "Lost on Journey" has just ended its Spring Festival schedule, so let "Lost in Thailand" shine again during the National Day schedule.
With the success of "Let the Bullets Fly" and "Lost on Journey", Baiqian Media will not have to worry about the screening schedule for "Lost in Thailand" at this time.
Baiqian Media, Yu Xiaoshu’s office.
The roadshow did not end during the Spring Festival. After that, Yu Xiaoshu took the "Lost on Journey" crew to 10 cities in a row before returning to the capital.
After all, the box office has almost reached its peak, and further roadshow promotions will have no effect.
Then Yu Xiaoshu gave the main creative staff, including Li Qing, a week off.
I didn’t have any rest during the Spring Festival, so this is a good time to take a vacation.
And today, it’s exactly one week.
Li Qing knocked on the door and came in.
"How was it? Did you rest well?"
Yu Xiaoshu looked at Li Qing and said with a smile.
Li Qing said hurriedly: "Teacher Yu, I found that it is best to go home and rest for two or three days, because during these two or three days, my parents will not be annoyed, which is not bad. But if I rest at home for too long, my parents will really get annoyed."
This is true.
That's basically it a lot of the time.
When you don't go home, your parents will miss you, but if you stay at home a little longer, they will definitely dislike you.
All parents in the world are the same.
Of course, it's not just parents, the same applies to couples. If they haven't seen each other for a few days, there might be a little bit of the so-called "short separation makes the new marriage better than lasting love." But if they are together every day, you can rest assured that divorce is not far away.
Think about it, when everyone on Earth had to stay at home because of the epidemic, how many couples divorced after the lockdown was lifted.
The principles are definitely the same.
"Take a look at this first."
Yu Xiaoshu chatted with Li Qing for a few more words, and then got down to business.
"kindness??"
Li Qing was stunned, then he took it and found that it was a script, and it was a complete script.
"Lost in Thailand".
This script is obviously the second part of "Lost on Journey", but after reading the script roughly, Li Qing found that this seemed to be the second part, but it was not the second part.
Because this script has absolutely nothing to do with the first "Lost on Journey", it's a completely new story.
But the number of leading actors has only increased from two to three.
And it's still embarrassing.
Of course, Lin Feiyang and Ding Ge can still form a sharp contrast.
Other than that, everything else is pretty good.
As expected, it’s Teacher Yu.
Li Qing secretly admired him.
This directly wrote the script.
Because according to most people’s thinking, creation is like pregnancy. You have to nurture it, and this nurturing takes time.
But look at Teacher Yu again.
He doesn't need to be conceived at all.
Absolutely not necessary.
Just write the second part directly.
Others need ten months of pregnancy to give birth, but Teacher Yu gives birth right away.
Teacher Yu is awesome.
Li Qing exclaimed secretly.
"What are you whispering?"
Yu Xiaoshu looked at Li Qing who was mumbling something and couldn't help but ask.
"I'm surprised you'll have a baby."
Li Qing said hurriedly, and regretted it right after he finished speaking.
Yu Xiaoshu looked speechless: "How come I can give birth to a child?"
"Teacher Yu, please don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that you can have a baby. I'm saying that you don't need time to have a baby. No, it's..."
"Okay, stop explaining."
Yu Xiaoshu said with a smile: "I know what you mean. You just need to prepare the crew. At the same time, our filming this time is going to Thailand. You can take people there to take some scenes and see if you can contact the Thai authorities..."
At the beginning, "Lost in Thailand" was not only popular in China. Yu Xiaoshu remembered that this drama made tourism to Thailand quite popular, and the government seemed to have made some efforts as well.
Li Qing nodded gently: "Okay, Teacher Yu, I understand. I will go and prepare it right away. Is there anything I can do for the actors?"
"That's not necessary. I've basically selected the actors, but wait until you come back from Thailand to take a look."
Yu Xiaoshu smiled and said, "You are the director after all. If you have any other opinions about the choice of actors, you can raise them."
"No, no, Mr. Yu, I don't have any opinion."
Li Qing said without thinking at this time.
While working at Baiqian Media, he even jumped from the assistant director of "Let the Bullets Fly" to the director of "Lost on Journey", and he directly directed this movie that almost grossed 2 billion.
What does this indicate? ?
How important it is to hold Yu Xiaoshu's thighs tightly.
As for the tool man? ?
Just like a few days ago, Li Qing talked about this with Zhang Yi and Song Qing, two senior employees of Baiqian Media, while having dinner.
Zhang Yi laughed and said, "Everyone looks down on tool people, but those people don't know how happy tool people are."
Song Qing also said: "Yes, I was a little dissatisfied with the title of tool man at the beginning, but now, I think what's wrong with tool man?"
Both of them were the failures of Baiqian Media, and they failed hand in hand.
Zhang Yi directed two web dramas, which were then broadcast on Xingyao Video, but were eventually cancelled due to extremely low viewing volumes.
Not to mention Song Qing, he shot short films and micro-films, and later he finally made a movie, but it also ended up being a flop.
The two of them were speaking from their own experience, showing Li Qing the qualities of a tool.
It goes without saying that both of them have great director status now.
"Everyone says that we are just tools, and that we became famous because of Teacher Yu, but what I want to say is..."
Zhang Yi said drunkenly: "Yes, what's wrong? These people can't even imagine the happiness of clinging to someone powerful."
kindness.
Li Qing thought the same thing.
He has now independently directed a movie called "Lost on Journey", and the box office has reached nearly 2 billion. So, if he independently directs another movie, it may be so successful.
Think about it.
How terrible will this result be?
Even his teacher couldn't achieve that.
At that time, Li Qing will be the first to make it out of this wave.
"Holding the thigh? Kneeling and licking Yu Xiaoshu? Being a tool?"
Li Qing, who came out of Yu Xiaoshu's office with a script in his hand, was roaring in his heart: "Yes, so what? You envious and jealous guys."
Yes.
In fact, Li Qing had suffered a lot of ridicule before "Lost on Journey". Not to mention his classmates, several of Su Dong's students directly believed that Li Qing had betrayed Su Dong, and also said that Li Qing was a bad person.
But what happened after Lost on Journey became a huge hit?
These people may continue to be sarcastic behind Li Qing's back, but they were very polite when they spoke to him in person. Not only were they polite, some of them even said that they hoped to sit with Li Qing for a while.
It's so realistic.
But Li Qing was too lazy to deal with these people.
It's very simple, they are no longer on the same path, but to be more precise, they are people of the same level.
All of this is because Li Qing made the right choice at the beginning.
Now, Li Qing believes even more that everything will be different after the release of "Lost in Thailand".
As for the office, Yu Xiaoshu was thinking about the situation of another guest appearance.
In "Lost in Thailand", the baby's girlfriend is Fan Bingbing. It can be said that this funny point is carried through to the end, and Yu Xiaoshu wants to find such a female star in Yuanxing.
She has to be popular among the people, and secondly, she has to be beautiful. She has to be the kind that can easily stun the whole audience. Of course, she can't be just a vase.
Actually, if you think about it, Fan Bingbing still has some outstanding works, just think about the ones mentioned below.
There is nothing more to say.
I can only say that this is an era of comparison, where each generation is worse than the previous one, so everyone has to rely on their peers to set off them.
Fortunately, Yuanxing is stronger than the Earth. At least it is not always worse, and most of the time it is basically moving upwards.
In the end, Yu Xiaoshu chose Shang Ying.
This person is suitable in every aspect, and most importantly, Shang Ying is truly the dream lover of many people.
Get in touch first.
20 minutes later.
Shang Ying's agent said excitedly, "Okay, Mr. Yu, no, no, I'll bring Yingying to see you, okay, see you later."
After hanging up the phone, Shang Ying's agent said to Shang Ying, "Yingying, great news, hurry up and get ready. We're going to meet Yu Xiaoshu next. I just received a call from him, saying that there is a cameo role in the new movie and asked if we are interested?"
Obviously, after the hit movies "Let the Bullets Fly" and "Lost on Journey", no one thinks that Yu Xiaoshu is inflated in the film industry anymore.
On the contrary, many people think that Yu Xiaoshu is a jack of all trades.
In that case, who wouldn’t want to play a role in Yu Xiaoshu’s new movie? ?
Shang Ying is 35 years old this year. She made her debut at the age of 19. She mainly played small roles, such as maids, serving girls, palace maids, female besties, etc.
Before the age of 29, Shang Ying had not made any significant achievements. Everyone is familiar with her face, but if you ask her if she has any representative works, you can't think of any.
As it happens, Shang Ying changed her agency at the age of 29, and her current agent Ding Fa took charge of her acting career.
After starting with Ding Fa, Shang Ying's style changed drastically. She used to be the big sister next door type, but Ding Fa made Shang Ying look like a goddess, and not the so-called bold and unrestrained type.
In short, because of the hype and the initial traffic that Shang Ying brought, she became popular on the Internet all of a sudden, especially with the interest of the Internet, Shang Ying was finally hyped up as a goddess.
Many people say that if you want to marry a wife, you should marry Shang Ying.
In 6 years, Shang Ying went from a minor supporting role to the leading actress, and Ding Fa played an indispensable role in this.
This also fully demonstrates how important a qualified agent, an excellent agent is.
One hour later, Ding Fa brought Shang Ying to Baiqian Media.
