Chapter 203 The Old Thief Is Really a "Cute"

In the capital city, in a luxurious garden, Brother Chen Kai was sitting in the garden enjoying the cool air, looking at the news on his tablet, his lips turned white and his body was trembling.

The man's face in the photo is clearly his son Chen Feiyu!

He knows his son better than his father, so why can't he recognize the mole at the corner of his son's mouth?

What made him even more unacceptable was that the heroine in the photo was still a married woman.

Forget about speculating on fans, he also speculated on a married woman. This was something that he, who had a very strict upbringing, couldn't accept anyway. Of course, what he couldn't accept even more was that Chen Feiyu actually let this matter be exposed.

What a fool!

He never imagined that this boy who usually obeyed his words and behaved like a little white rabbit could actually do such a thing.

"Where are the others?"

Brother Chen Kai looked at his wife Chen Hong like a volcano about to erupt.

Chen Hong was also very angry, but her love for her son outweighed her anger. She could not let the current brother Chen Kai see Chen Feiyu, "He has gone to the beautiful country. Let him go out to avoid the limelight and come back in a few years."

"Are you still protecting him?"

Brother Chen Kai shook even more violently and pointed at Chen Hong, "You are still protecting him!"

"Look, look!"

"This is your good son!"

He thrust the tablet in front of Chen Hong, but because he was so excited, he felt the world spin and he fell to the ground uncontrollably.

"Brother Kai, Brother Kai..."

Chen Hong's frightened shouts were heard in his ears, but in Chen Kaige's ears, they seemed to be coming from the distant horizon.

These days, firstly because of "Three-Body", I was chased and scolded by countless netizens. Then, because of "Three-Body", I was chased and ridiculed by countless netizens. In China, I have become a figure like a street rat.

He can accept all this because he still has a good son and he still has hope!

Now I find that my only hope is this kind of thing.

This was such a huge blow to him that his body at his age could no longer bear it.

So, he collapsed.

…

emo walked out of the theater, his eyes and face full of loneliness, and the images of "The Wandering Earth" were all in his mind.

Sometimes he had to admit that there are geniuses in this world. No, they are not geniuses, they are monsters!

A student who graduated less than two years ago was able to produce such a work.

In the eyes of netizens, this is a wonderful science fiction movie.

But in the eyes of emo, the degree of completion of this movie is extremely high. Even he may not be able to achieve this level, and the solid basic skills in it are simply impossible without decades of experience in the film and television industry.

If he thinks he can compare with the first two items, but the wild imagination, those shocking scenes, the kind of touching that comes from the blood in "The Wandering Earth"...

You can't learn this kind of thing!

No matter how many years I give you, you won’t be able to learn!

…

Shihao Feili, in the living room.

Li Mingyue was lying on the sofa. Because of the hot weather, a pair of jade feet like mutton-fat white jade were exposed in the air.

Her favorite place used to be the company's demo room, but since she moved into Su You's house, the living room has become her second favorite place.

Today, Zhang Keer, Li Zhenduo and Hao Wei went out to play. Only Su You and her were watching the live broadcast in the living room.

But both of them were a little absent-minded, because they were waiting for the final result.

"The Wandering Earth" has been released from theaters today. All data will be announced at 8 o'clock in the evening, and the rebate system will be officially settled at 8 o'clock.

[Project: Wandering Earth]

[Investment: 500 million]

[Profit conversion ratio 100:1, loss conversion ratio 1:10]

[Settlement time: Settling in progress]

[Revenue: 1.73 billion (net profit 1.23 billion)]

[Rebate: 12.3 million]

At this moment, the light curtain popped up.

Li Mingyue opened her eyes wide, opened her mouth wide, looked at the numbers on the light screen, and fell into self-doubt.

One thousand two hundred and three hundred thousand!

This is the biggest rebate she has received since she got the system, and this rebate was not obtained through losses!

1.73 billion, a movie made 1.73 billion!

Li Mingyue has never thought of such a crazy thing. If every movie can make such a profit, why would she bother losing money? Wouldn't it be better to just make money?

But she quickly gave up this idea.

The popularity of "The Wandering Earth" is obviously unreplicable. In addition to the quality of Su You's filming, Weinstein also contributed a lot.

Things won't be so good next time, so Li Mingyue quickly corrected his mentality. He still had to lose money. After all, he only needed to lose more than one million to get the same rebate.

With an investment of hundreds of millions, it can't be so difficult every time to lose millions, right?

She no longer expects Su You to make huge losses, as long as she can make some profit...

Su You also opened his eyes wide and looked at the data on the 84-inch 4K screen in the living room.

"The Wandering Earth" has been released for one month, with a domestic box office of 4.6 billion!

It has actually exceeded the box office of the previous life. You must know that the "Ball 2" in the previous life was delayed, and the previous box office record in this world was still 2.39 billion held by "Avengers 3". The domestic box office market is 2.39 billion compared with the previous life. Quite a bit different.

But under such circumstances, "The Wandering Earth" actually created such a miracle!

He knows that this is because "Ball 2" has become the first one, and everyone has more freshness. After all, the box office of "Ball 1" in the previous life was also higher.

But more than anything else, it’s everyone’s passion for science fiction stories that belong to the Chinese people!

What makes him even more gratified is that the overseas box office of "The Wandering Earth" exceeded 200 million U.S. dollars!

Perhaps it is because "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has also made him famous overseas, and more people are willing to watch this new work by the director who won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

The overseas performance of "The Wandering Earth" is much more impressive than its previous version!

But it is still far from Su You's goal. In fact, he is not satisfied with the overseas box office of "The Wandering Earth". He believes that a science fiction film of the quality of "The Wandering Earth", even in a beautiful country, is not very satisfied. It should get the same box office revenue as Interstellar!

The fact is that "The Wandering Earth" only grossed $80 million at the domestic box office.

However, Su You is not in a hurry. He believes that as long as he takes his time, one day, Chinese films will be as invincible in the beautiful country as Hollywood blockbusters were in the Chinese film market!

46*0.3+2*7*0.25=17.3!

Soon, Su You mentally calculated the benefits that "The Wandering Earth" would bring to Xihong Film and Television!

Although the domestic box office split is 40%, after excluding handling fees and taxes, the final receipt is only about 30%, while the overseas box office requires more handling fees, and the final receipt is about 2.50%.

More than 3 times the profit!

This was something Su You didn't even expect.

He subconsciously looked at Li Mingyue aside, and saw her eyes wide open, her mouth wide open, looking like a wooden person.

"We're getting rich, we're getting rich!"

Su You's eyes were like the kiss that awakened Snow White, making Li Mingyue wake up from petrification. Then joy surged into her heart, and her eyes were filled with golden ￥ symbols.

Su You couldn't help but smile even more happily!

…

Shenhua TV Station, Wang Binbin Studio, Wang Binbin looked at the young man sitting opposite, his expression full of emotion.

"Long time no see, welcome Mr. Su You... The director is a guest on tonight's celebrity interview show. I didn't expect to meet again so soon!"

[Hahaha, Binbin almost exposed her chicken feet, old thief Su You almost screamed, she is such a little black guy! 】

[It’s confusing, it’s confusing, Binbin’s heart is confused, we haven’t seen each other for a long time, and then we meet again so soon]

[This is the old thief Su You. If it were me, I would be confused. He is handsome and so talented. Who wouldn’t be confused if he replaced me? 】

[So, Su You’s husband? 】

[Msang-in-law? 】

[Shou Shui Wei upstairs, what kind of wife fan? Has our film and television industry turned into an entertainment industry? 】

Wang Binbin wasn't upset, he just expressed his feelings.

Long time no see because this interview was originally supposed to be conducted after "Bright Sword" aired, but at that time Su You was filming "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and had no time to be interviewed.

After "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" won the Oscar, Su You was scheduled to be invited over. Who knew that the Weinstein incident had happened again, which has delayed the interview until now, but the content of the interview has already changed. on several topics.

As for meeting again so soon, of course when she was interviewing Su You for "The Princess", she never thought that this man would be able to produce one blockbuster movie after another so quickly.

You know, many people have been on this show once and have not had the chance to do it again for many years.

But this man seemed to be able to do it easily.

"haven't seen you for a long time!"

Su You responded with a smile, also feeling a little emotional. Time flies so fast. The last time I was interviewed here was more than a year ago.

[Wow, they laugh so sweetly, please lock up the Wangwangsu CP and stay together]

[God is so prosperous, obviously the old thief and our Xihongshi film and television boss are a couple]

[No matter what, I don’t care, I’ll just kowtow to Wang Wangsu. Who knows what Xihong’s film and television boss looks like? 】

"Um?"

Seeing the barrage, Li Mingyue, who had just posted the barrage, felt like killing someone.

At this time, after some simple greetings, the interview officially began. Wang Binbin smiled sweetly and said, "It is said that Xihong Film and Television also owns the copyright of "The Three-Body Problem". May I ask why you finally chose to film "The Wandering Earth" Woolen cloth?"

"Not only "The Three-Body Problem", I have read most of Liu's books, and the copyright aspect is not as complicated as "The Three-Body Problem". If you want to film it, you should be able to film it, and the final effect will be It’s not bad either.”

"But in the end, my intuition told me that I should choose "The Wandering Earth"."

If it was half a month ago, Su You might not have been able to answer this question. He couldn't say that because he had a system, he thought it was safer, right?

But after experiencing "The Wandering Earth" from filming to release, with help from all parties, and feedback from all parties, Su You suddenly figured out something.

"At first I just thought it was a cool idea to wander around with the Earth, but it wasn't until I communicated with a foreign actor in the team that I discovered that they not only thought it was cool, but also found it very strange!"

"Yes, peculiar!"

"Because "The Wandering Earth" truly belongs to the cultural core of us Chinese people. It is our deep feelings for the land and our homeland that lead us to take 'home' with us even when we escape!"

“This is a culture that Westerners don’t have!”

"The moment we push away the earth, what we push away is by no means a physical stone, it pushes away our home and all our emotional carriers. This thing is not Western, it is particularly Chinese. It turns out that the source of its coolness is given to us by our culture, and it is particularly strange in the eyes of foreigners.”

"It wasn't until this moment that I suddenly realized what "Chinese science fiction" is. The core of Chinese science fiction should be this thing, and I understood why my intuition told me to choose it.

The other things are equivalent to "clothes" to me, and the core of culture is equivalent to this "person" and his soul. What clothes he wears has become less important.

The so-called clothes are special effects, editing, and story structure. These things are all outer packaging to package the soul. "

[Damn, that’s brilliant! That’s really how I felt when I watched it]

[The old thief really spoke to my heart. This is what our Chinese science fiction should express. This is our Chinese science fiction blockbuster! 】

[The old thief is awesome. He can speak so clearly and think so clearly. No wonder he can make a classic like "The Wandering Earth"]

【intuition! I'm really envious. Although it's cool for an old thief to figure it out, this kind of intuition is a gift! 】

"That's right! Our Chinese country is one of the civilizations with the longest history on Blue Star. We should make our own voice and let everyone on Blue Star see the charm of our Chinese civilization!"

At this time, Wang Binbin was like a obsessed girl, nodding her head repeatedly. Fortunately, the director reminded her in the earphones in time, otherwise the little girl would have started chasing stars directly on the stage. As we all know, Wang Binbin is a love brain.

"I heard that the special effects of "The Wandering Earth" were mainly completed by the team of Xihong Film and Television. Why did you choose this in the first place? How did you do it?"

"When I was filming "The Wandering Earth," everyone also advised me to spend a lot of money to hire a Hollywood special effects team. Otherwise, such a large investment without a good special effects team would be doomed to failure."

Su You said, "But there are some things that money can't solve. Especially recently, the beautiful country has cut off the supply of Shenhua mobile phone chips. If one day they don't let the special effects team work for us, then will we be in trouble for the rest of our lives?" Can’t you make a science fiction movie?”

“Therefore, cultivating our own special effects team and keeping key technologies in our own hands has always been something we at Xihong Film and Television attach great importance to. We also welcome friends who are interested in this aspect to submit their resumes to Xihong Film and Television. "

[The old thief is really a clever little guy, and he even learned how to advertise]

[Wisdom tooth extraction in Henan]

[I have been studying animation for three years. Can I submit my resume? 】

[Hahaha, are your three years the three years I thought? Too abstract! 】

【Huh? Shouldn't it be two and a half years of practice? 】

[Upstairs, what you said is not a joke. Go to Xiaopo website and search for "Study animation for three years", you will be surprised! 】

[God is so surprised, I laughed my head off]

The popularity of this interview is unprecedented. Countless netizens are watching it through various channels, and the barrages are dense. Almost every word spoken by Su You and Wang Binbin will have countless barrages.

"As for how we did it?"

Su You continued to answer, "In terms of special effects, the gap between us and Hollywood is actually not that big on a technical level. The main gap lies in ideas. The reason why they are strong is because they have been doing this for decades. , have accumulated a lot of ideas, for example, if they want to show a grand disaster scene, there will be countless solutions in their knowledge base, and we can only explore."

"But as long as you think about ideas, it's not difficult!"

[If you think of it, it’s not that difficult? Listen, is this human language? Why can't others think of it? 】

[Living in Bengbu, is this old thief saying that he is a genius? 】

[The old thief is really honest and answers all questions. He is much better than those celebrities who are meandering]

[It’s really like this. Almost all interviews conducted by the old thief are like this. He will answer every question asked by the host seriously. As a reporter, such an interviewee is simply the scene in my dream]

[(The old man on the subway looks at his cell phone), just say you are the lover of your dreams]

[That’s not impossible (shy)]

[But the old thief looks so honest and cute]

[Yes, the old thief is even more of a ‘cutie’ when he hands out knives]

【Hahaha……】
