Chapter 406 Mr. Xu, I Really Want to Make Progress

The moment "Wolf Warrior 2" broke through the 5 billion mark and headed firmly towards breaking the record.

Everyone inside and outside the industry is silent.

Unlike other movies, everyone had expected it to explode at the box office.

But the fire of "Wolf Warrior 2" was like a bolt from the blue. It didn't give people any time to react. It just appeared suddenly and then took off to a position where no one could see it even if they raised their necks.

["Wolf Warrior 2" is about to break the record, and the audience's patriotic emotions are completely aroused]

[Military-type movies are spreading in the new year again? 】

[Jiaxing releases another hit, setting off a wave of movie viewing]

[Wu Jing appeared at a ceremony in Shanghai, and fans shouted Leng Feng]

These reports are emerging one after another. For almost this period of time, both the Internet and print media have been talking about "Wolf Warrior 2".

Penguin even releases the box office results of "Wolf Warrior 2" every day. Recently, there is an additional line, that is, how close "Wolf Warrior 2" is to breaking the box office record.

This undoubtedly ignited the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies.

People who may not have the intention to watch it will become curious, not to mention the sense of honor of participating in such a big event as breaking a record.

People's Daily, Huaxia News and other official media have spoken out in support of "Wolf Warrior 2".

It can be said that for a while, the whole city was full of Wolf Warriors.

"Brother Jia, Sister Zeng wants to ask you, when is the celebration party for "Wolf Warrior 2" scheduled?"

"Wait a minute, when will the record be broken, and when will the celebration banquet be held."

Xu Jia paused and said, "Besides, I won't go to this celebration banquet. Just let Zeng Jia, Cai Yinong and others go. Our company's top executives should also show up more."

Otherwise, the current world only knows Xu Jia and no one else.

Although this can concentrate power more in Xu Jia's hands, it also reduces the room for others to grow.

Xu Jia's biggest worry is that he has too much power.

More rights also mean more responsibilities.

If he only enjoys rights and does not enjoy responsibilities, then someone must be carrying the burden for him.

"In addition, Penguin sent a letter of thanks and told them that we will not break the conditions we promised them before and will help them achieve it in the near future."

Originally, Xu Jia felt unsure about his negotiations with Wanda.

Now that Penguin is an ally, the odds of winning are even better.

At least in terms of money, Penguin is a representative of the rich and powerful. With the capital flowing from the game, it is no problem to buy the entire Wanda Pictures.

But Wanda will definitely not sell all of them.

"Okay, by the way, Brother Chao and Brother Bo both invite you."

As soon as Miao Yuqing finished speaking, there was a knock on the door behind her.

"Please come in."

Xu Jia said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Xu, am I not disturbing you?"

Dong Chengpeng opened the door as he spoke. When he saw Miao Yuqing inside, his expression suddenly froze.

After I finished, I planned to close the door and pretend that nothing happened.

"Come in and talk, you act like we have something to hide."

Xu Jia was angry. The more he tried to hide it, the more it seemed that there was something wrong between the two of them. The more generous one was, the less suspicious he was.

Dapeng sneered twice and walked in: "I came here to submit my script to you. The script of "Sewing Machine Band" has been prepared and can start project preparation at any time."

Oops, isn't this a coincidence?

People like Deng Chao and Huang Bo also directed and acted themselves, and they also contacted me.

It seems that the great success of Wu Jing's "Wolf Warrior 2" has stimulated these people.

But think about it, anyone who sees "Wolf Warrior 2" taking home 5 billion at the box office will not feel itchy.

"Haha, you came just in time. Deng Chao and Huang Bo also contacted me, but they were not as quick as you and found the company directly. Since you can come to me, it means that you are ready to start filming."

"Once preparations for this project begin, they cannot be stopped. Do you have a rough production idea?"

Xu Jia looked at Dong Chengpeng with a serious look on his face: "If you just look at others' success and become impatient yourself, then I won't be able to pass the test."

He is not one of those inexperienced investors. Although these projects have been successful in previous lives, there is no guarantee that these creative personnel will not change.

You still need to have the necessary control, otherwise these artists can really play tricks on you.

"I plan to shoot in Ji'an, which is the place where my rock and roll dream began. It is also the hometown of Hu Liang, a young man from a small town. From Hu Liang's perspective, I invite my manager Cheng Gong to form a rock band. I plan to use Cheng Gong to form a rock band. Act in person."

"Then during the selection, drummer Dynamite, keyboardist Xixi, bassist Ding Jianguo, and guitarist Yang Shuangshu were found to form the Sewing Machine Band. I plan to conduct an open audition for these four people."

"The story structure is also very simple. Except for a few big scenes, I will try to control the cost as much as possible."

Dong Chengpeng is very aware of how bad his reputation among the audience is now. It would be false to say that he has no regrets. After all, most of the profits of "Pancake Man" were earned by his company at the time, Sohu.

To put it bluntly, so many celebrities and big names in "Pancake Man" went to Zhang Chaoyang, and the final winner was also Zhang Chaoyang.

At most, Dapeng has gained a reputation as a director, and is no longer a young diaosi host in "Diaosi Men".

But what he paid for was overdrawing his future audience popularity.

It’s hard to tell whether the gains and losses here are worth it. Without this movie, Dapeng might not be where he is now, and he wouldn’t even be qualified to be used as a pawn.

With this movie, he will be in debt to the audience, and it will take at least three to four good movies to save his reputation.

During this period, it will be greatly affected.

At least when the audience sees a movie signed by Dapeng in the cinema, they will hesitate.

"You don't have to worry about the cost. Just follow your vision. As for whether it exceeds the limit, we have our own professional coordinating department and they will calculate it, so you don't need to save money for me. As a director, you only need to pay attention to one thing. Then It’s about whether the film quality can meet the audience’s expectations.”

"I'm not lying to you. I don't play the tricks of literary and artistic films here. There is only one criterion, and that is whether it can be loved by the audience, which is to say based on the box office."

Xu Jia interrupted Dong Chengpeng's words. For him, the little film investment he saved was nothing compared to Jiaxing's reputation.

For Jiaxing, which has reached its current scale, its revenue is no longer solely based on box office revenue.

With the current improvement of copyright laws and the improvement of the quality and consumption willingness of movie-goers, other channels can also produce considerable output.

This is the positive cycle in which the film industry operates.

Instead of turning everyone who dares to invest in movies into gamblers, they will face complete failure as long as they fail.

Only in this way will more people invest in this industry and give back better works to movie fans.

It is often said that only when you have enough food can you have the strength to work.
