Chapter 243 Movie 3
For a month in a row, this film has led the way as a strong dark horse. At the same time, the third part of the "Fengshen" trilogy was also killed by this film. Throughout July, Xia Haoyang Studio's romantic disaster film "Extreme Escape" broke the 24 billion box office mark, while the third part of "Fengshen" only exceeded 15 billion.
If a careful person or professional analyst had judged this, they would have thought that this was a classic case of troll hype leading to a high box office for a movie, but it was really just a coincidence and not a deliberate design by Xia Haoyang Studio, and with his brain It is impossible to design such a hype case. So what is Xia Haoyang doing, who is sympathized by thousands of netizens and praised non-stop by thousands of self-media?
"Wanqi, let's do that posture again." A short fat man said breathlessly.
"Okay, that's fine with me. Can you do it again?"
"Uh, what, I'm suddenly a little thirsty. No, I was suddenly inspired. I thought of a song. I forgot about it if I didn't write it down. So what, go and get me a glass of water. I'll write this melody first. Write it down and I’ll teach you a lesson tomorrow.”
"Oh." The beautiful female seductress rushed to pour water.
Why do men like female seductresses? One is beautiful, comfortable to look at, and happy; the other is weak-minded, one-minded, and easy to deceive.
Throughout July, Fat Cat Studio was in a rare happy atmosphere. Everyone was preparing for Tara's concert. We encountered some problems and failures, but when we are in a happy mood, any problems are not a problem.
"Sister Fei, how much is the box office as of today?" Almost everyone's first sentence when they come to the company every day is to ask the receptionist Fei Jie about the box office of "Extreme Escape". In the first week, everyone even went to several cities for road shows, and the results After the road show stopped running, the box office became even more popular.
"As of 12 o'clock yesterday morning, it exceeded 25 billion." Fei Jie said happily.
"Yeah, I am also an actress with a box office of over billion." Qin Jiali said happily.
"What's the matter with you? You only had one minute of guest appearances in two movies. How dare you say that you are an actress worth more than billion?" Xia Haoyang, who had just walked from the elevator to the company, knocked Qin Jiali on the head.
"The bad fat boss hit me on the head again." Qin Jiali ran away out of habit.
"Wan Qi is the actress who really broke billion. She is the heroine in both dramas, and her acting is not bad." Zeng Jingyi, standing aside, said with a smile.
Tang Wanqi held Xia Haoyang's arm, looked at Zeng Jingyi and smiled, and was very happy that the two movies she starred in were well received.
Xia Haoyang came to the office, and then Lao Xie and several others walked in.
"Why are there so many people here?" Xia Haoyang smiled.
"Fat man, our movie has exceeded 25 billion today." Han Xiyu rubbed his hands, as if he had never seen money.
"So what do you want to say?" Xia Haoyang actually had some consciousness.
"I heard from Wan Qi, haven't you finished the script for the comedy movie you have on hand?" Han Xiyu smiled apologetically.
"So, you all came together because you want to continue making movies?" Xia Haoyang smiled.
"In the entertainment industry, when the limelight is good, everything goes well, but there will also be times when the limelight is not good, and we have to be a good person. We can make money by making movies now, and you have the script in hand, so let's go on with it. ." Han Xiyu said with a smile.
Xia Haoyang glanced at everyone: "You all have the same idea?"
"Let's do it, Fatty. Hong Ling and I also went to the cinema to watch "Extreme Escape". It was really good. The main reason is that your script is well written. Keep doing it." Xie Shujie also encouraged.
"Okay, I originally planned to film this script, so why don't we continue to look for Director Liu?"
"As long as you are willing to film, we will not be responsible for the specific matters, nor will we interfere. You have full decision-making power." Han Xiyu was satisfied when he heard that the fat man was willing to continue filming. He also understood that Xia Haoyang should not take charge of his own affairs if he is not in his position. Don't mess around with things you are responsible for.
Everyone else also has the same mentality as Han Xiyu. If the fat man is willing to continue filming, then that's fine. It depends on who the director uses and who the actors do. The fat man decides everything and shouldn't interfere in things that shouldn't be mixed up. Most men have a sense of propriety.
Xia Haoyang thought for a while and called Director Liu.
"Director Liu?"
"Hey, Mr. Xia, what's going on?"
"Isn't this to congratulate Director Liu? Congratulations to Director Liu for his movie breaking 25 billion this morning."
"That's my congratulations to Mr. Xia. The films produced by your company have continued to do well at the box office and made a lot of money."
"Okay, we don't need to talk to each other about business anymore. Does Director Liu have any job next?"
"Mr. Xia, you mean you have a new script?"
"Yes, it's a romantic comedy. Are you interested in it?"
"Are you in a hurry? I took on another movie some time ago. I'm sorry, Mr. Xia."
"Okay, how long will it take to shoot your film?"
"This is a big production, and it may not be completed within a year."
"That's it, that's such a pity. I have collaborated with Director Liu on two movies and one TV series. Whether it is your professional level, business ability, or personality, I think it is very suitable for me and I want to continue to work with you. We are willing to cooperate, but it will take you a year, so we probably won’t be able to wait.”
"Recently, your reputation on the Internet has been changing, and your popularity with the public is really at its best. If you have a work, you should rush to it. As long as it is good, you will definitely make money, but I did agree to other dramas first." Director Liu also said with regret.
"Okay, Director Liu, do you have any suitable director recommendations? I'm not familiar with the film industry. When I was filming my first movie, I even recruited people online. If you have a good recommendation, I will directly Use your choice." Xia Haoyang truly trusts Director Liu Chang.
"That's it, that's okay. I have a junior brother named Luo Xian. He has been working with me as an assistant director. He is very capable and has been able to make films on his own for a long time. But he has never had a good script for him. If you trust him, would you like to let him try?" Director Liu Chang said very seriously.
"Okay, give me your contact information and I'll ask." Xia Haoyang agreed directly.
"How about I ask you first and then ask him to call you?"
"Thank you so much, Director Liu. It's really a pleasure to cooperate with you." Xia Haoyang was a little excited and said from the bottom of his heart.
Without much thought, out of trust in Director Liu, after Director Luo Xian called, Xia Haoyang sent the script to him and communicated some details of the script.
The other party called back the next day, willing to film the script, and asked about funding and the choice of starring roles. Director Liu Chang also called Xia Haoyang back and was willing to lend his production team to Luo Xian to film the film. Putting your name in the producer column is an endorsement of the director of the show.
