Chapter 1312 Considerations for Each Part (Third Update)
With the attitude of today's conversation, Xu Ke and Shi Lansheng are basically determined to cooperate with Yin Jun.
Xu Ke's interest is only in filming. He likes filming and hopes to construct a world according to his own ideas.
Shi Lansheng thought more.
Her relationship with Xu Ke has been established for a long time, so from now on she will be responsible for the entire family and must earn money to support the family.
She knew Xu Ke's character very well. He was okay in filming and creating, but if he was asked to make money or something, especially making money by making movies independently, it would be difficult.
Because when Xu Ke makes movies, he never cares about the cost.
Although the movies he made in New Art City had a good box office, they cost a lot. Usually, a movie can't make much money just based on the box office in Xiangjiang.
This seems a bit embarrassing.
He and Huang Baiming are in two different directions.
Huang Baiming can always make movies with good box office at a very small cost.
Last year, he directed and produced a film called "The Brows", which was very brilliant and hilarious. It took in 21 million yuan at the box office. It also sold very well in other places and made a huge profit of 20 million yuan. He was so happy that Lei Hu gave him a red envelope of 3 million yuan.
Xu Ke was more pitiful. He only got what he deserved, and the Golden Princess Cinema Line acted as if they didn't know about some dividends from other places.
It was also for this reason that Shi Lansheng and Xu Ke understood that it was time to change.
It happened that Yin Jun came to them at this time, and Shi Lansheng immediately decided to defect to Yin Jun.
And from now on, she will personally participate in every movie made by Xu Ke, carefully planning and accounting for him, so that she can finally make money for the company and herself.
Only reasonable and modern management methods can benefit a film company.
Through practice and hard work in Xinyi City in the past few years, Shi Lansheng has cleverly grasped the fundamentals and managed Xinyi City in an orderly manner.
The reason why Xinyi City in the previous life was so unstoppable in the past few years was precisely because Shi Lansheng was strategizing behind them and taking care of everything other than filming.
When Xu Ke left New Art City, Shi Lansheng of course also left, so there was a lack of people to take care of affairs, and New Art City's accounts and operations fell into chaos, thus accelerating New Art City's demise.
Nowadays, Xinyi City is in good condition, but Shi Lansheng is destined to leave with Xu Ke and start his own business. I don’t know what will happen to them in the future.
Yin Jun actually admired New Art City in the past few years. It was able to build something from scratch and directly defeat the two bitter rivals Jiahe and Shaw Brothers, and even forced them to join forces. They are absolutely super powerful.
It is a pity that such a company does not have enough stamina to continue its glory.
Therefore, when Lei Juekun cooperated with them, Yin Jun reminded Lei Juekun that he could only be the boss, and the shares of the other people must be balanced, otherwise there would be conflicts.
Lei Juekun trusted Yin Jun, so he did the same.
Judging from their situation in the past few years, those expected conflicts have not exploded. The development trajectory of New Art City is very healthy, and has even surpassed Jiahe, second only to Qilin Film Company.
In this case, Yin Jun poached Xu Ke, who was not important among them, and it actually did not have such a big impact on New Art City.
Xu Ke is just Xu Ke.
He is not the Mr. Xu that he will be in the future.
However, after Shi Lansheng leaves, Xinyi City will definitely be in chaos for a while.
But there was nothing she could do about it. She would definitely follow Xu Ke. Although Xu Ke and her actually divorced decades later, at this stage, neither of them could live without the other.
The movie Yin Jun asked Xu Ke to make is of course the condensed essence of his life.
"The Swordsman: The Undefeated East".
"New Dragon Gate Inn".
"A Chinese Ghost Story".
"Once Upon a Time in the Sky".
"Once Upon a Time in China: A man should strengthen himself".
"Once Upon a Time: The Lion King".
The Once Upon a Time series naturally has more than just these three parts, in fact it has six parts in total.
But the next three films are purely continuations of the work and do not reflect Xu Ke's true level.
That is to say, the previous three movies are all classics and are very enjoyable to watch.
To put it bluntly, purely in terms of martial arts movies, these three movies are an insurmountable peak.
"New Dragon Gate Inn" can also be regarded as a martial arts movie, but it tells a more emotional story, and the content of the story is more entangled, not as hearty as the Once Upon a Time series.
"The Swordsman: The Invincible East" is not a pure martial arts film.
Li Lianjie here was completely suppressed by sister Qingxia.
There is no way, there will never be another sister Dongfang in red in a hundred years.
The third part, "The Invincibles of the East Rises Again," is actually a work that continues from the beginning.
The awkward love between Wang Zuxian and Lin Qingxia is completely confusing. Although the scene is still beautiful, it has lost its charm.
The same is true in "A Chinese Ghost Story". Although Zhang Guorong played an outstanding role and Ning Caichen's charm was unstoppable, he could not resist the unparalleled charm of sister Xiaoqian.
As for "The Way of the World", the second part of "A Chinese Ghost Story", Jacky Cheung is a great highlight. Coupled with Tony Leung, it is still worth watching. It is not as erratic as "The Invincible" .
After counting like this, Yin Jun actually robbed Xu Ke of his hard work in his previous life.
Therefore, when Shi Lansheng mentioned that he wanted to invest in the box office and receive dividends, Yin Jun did not hesitate and gave them the biggest advantage.
What they didn't expect was that Yin Jun would increase their dividend ratio to express his guilt for Xu Ke.
It can be regarded as giving Xu Ke more funds so that he can make better movies in the future.
After all, when Xu Ke finished filming these six movies for Yin Jun, it was at least five or six years later, when he was thirty-seven or eighteen years old.
A director can be said to be in his prime when he is thirty-seven or eighteen years old, and many of them have just become full-time directors from assistant directors.
With so much experience and such a long period of hard work, Yin Jun is looking forward to seeing better works from Xu Ke, a naturally talented person.
Maybe "The Black Man", a rare Xuke movie, will be released in advance.
There are also those wonderful ideas that Xu Ke has been thinking about but has no chance to film. I believe that with Yin Jun's financial support, he will continue to come up with them - the "Knife" that made Yin Jun feel very CULT style. , although the box office was mediocre, Yin Jun felt that the many concepts and expressive abilities in it were truly thoughtful and state-of-the-art exploration.
It's not like some directors who, once they see a film that is easy to make and make money, they will make it until it sucks.
Fatty Wang must be a part of this.
The reason why Xiangjiang Film collapsed so quickly is that people like Fatty Wang are definitely one of the culprits.
The most hateful thing is that other people brought down the Xiangjiang Film Market and left the entertainment industry in despair, but Fatty Wang was still prosperous for decades, making money and laughing happily. This makes people envious and jealous!
As for the current six movies, of course there is a priority.
Li Lianjie is definitely the main force among the main players.
Except for Ning Caichen, who is really unsuitable, and except for Liang Jiahui in "New Dragon Inn" who is also irreplaceable, he is the leading actor in every other movie.
Including the previous "Swordsman", there are five movies.
Yin Jun knew that if it were announced, Li Lianjie would definitely become the target of public criticism.
It's already rare to see a movie by Yin Jun. You Li Lianjie, a boy who just came from the mainland, can have a movie starring in a leading role. It's already a smoke coming out of the ancestral graves. You actually have to occupy the share of five movies in one go. You think Xiangjiang Are there no good actors?
Therefore, Yin Jun will definitely not be so stupid as to let Jet Li shoot five movies in a row.
He only planned to let Jet Li shoot "The Swordsman" first, and then let him shoot "Once Upon a Time in the Sky" after seeing the market's reaction. It would not be until Jet Li became famous that he would produce "The Swordsman". "Invincible" is waiting for the movie.
This is appropriate.
Otherwise, you are not helping Li Lianjie, but harming him.
In the above five movies, it is not just Jet Li who is the protagonist.
For example, in "The Swordsman: The Invincible East", Lin Qingxia must have surpassed Jet Li.
Lin Qingxia now has all the conditions to play the role of Dongfang Sister, but the heroines in other movies are not.
For example, Jin Xiangyu in "New Dragon Inn", Zhang Manyu will only make her debut as a Hong Kong sister this year. If she wants to be as dazzling as Jin Xiangyu, the landlady in her previous life, she will have to wait for at least ten years.
If you can't wait, then you can only substitute someone.
But how can the role of gold and jade be replaced under normal circumstances?
There are many actors in Xiangjiang, but there is only one Man Shen!
Even among the many good actors in the Mainland, there are only two or three who can compare with Zhang Manyu in terms of fame and strength.
In contrast, Wang Zuxian, who has already arrived in Hong Kong for development, will be able to play the role of Xiaoqian in two or three years at most when she is around eighteen years old.
What Xiaoqian needs is not acting skills.
Wang Zuxian stood there, she was the unique Xiaoqian, and no one could stop her.
As for Ning Caichen, and Yin Jun is prepared to maintain the original version, Zhang Guorong is quite suitable.
It is not easy to say that Zhang Guorong is born in Hong Kong.
Whether it's a costume or a modern drama, Leslie Cheung is definitely a typical example of a handsome man.
The key is that this man is so good-looking and handsome, and he also studies his acting skills very hard and constantly improves himself, which makes it even more terrifying.
Before him and after him, there was no second person with unparalleled elegance in Xiangjiang, not even Liang Chaowei could compare.
With Zhang Guorong, who is a few years younger, and Wang Zuxian, who is also a few years younger, this version of "A Chinese Ghost Story" should be more classic than the previous one.
Oh, by the way, grandma is already in place now.
Mr. Liu Xun is currently the drama director of Kylin TV, and he makes guest appearances from time to time. He is very happy!
