In the Beginning, I Just Wanted to Make Money

Chapter 356 Stock up a Batch

"Production investments often pursue a high lower limit, not a high upper limit. Do you understand this truth?"

Gao Fenfen nodded: "I understand!"

"TV dramas are essentially a high-risk business activity with huge investment. Today, when the supply chain is actually very mature, the topic selection and script often have a great impact on the success or failure of the project. Online novels, especially, have already had a certain A large number of readers have helped us screen the online novels based on their storytelling quality..."

Shen Xudong was about to give a long speech to show off his knowledge, but Gao Fenfen had already answered: "So, online novels are worthy of adaptation?"

"…right!"

Damn it, didn’t you know that interrupting someone’s pretense would be uncomfortable?

Gao Fenfen immediately asked: "Then where did you read the original novel "Snow Leopard"?"

"Iron-blooded reading..."

"Iron-blooded reading?"

"A military novel reading platform...you shouldn't be interested, right?"

Gao Fenfen nodded: "I usually don't read novels at all..."

Shen Xudong simply suggested: "Why don't you just look at the romance novels section of Baidu's most popular search rankings, see the most popular ones, and grab them directly!"

"Baidu search ranking... successful, I remember it!"

"Just try to stock up on thirty or fifty copies. Don't buy too many."

"How many?"

"...Thirty or fifty copies...No, once one of them becomes a hit, all subsequent works will become hot sellers..."

Given the industry's habit of following trends, what Shen Xudong said is certainly likely to become true, but Gao Fenfen still hesitated: "Don't you have any more specific goals?"

Shen Xudong said casually: "Why is the Shengxiao silent? This book has been at the top of the romance category for a long time!"

""Why is the Shengxiao silent"...good!"

"Gu Man's novels are all good, and there is also a novel called Bandit Wo Sicun. Both of them are good!"

"I remember…"

Shen Xudong himself doesn't like novels about traveling through hundreds of years and sending beeps. He insists on a very simple point of view: don't rebel if you travel through time, use a chrysanthemum to set an electric drill!

Male channel time-travel novels, also known as "time-travel novels in which farming and violent warfare change history after time-traveling", originated in 2002 and should be the book "Different Time and Space - The Rise of China"...

Male channel...

It is normal that the corruption and ignorance of the Qing Dynasty led to China's backwardness in modern times. Travelers must overthrow the Qing Dynasty and establish a new, more civilized and advanced rule in order to avoid historical humiliation.

Besides, do you still have to be a slave after traveling back in time?

Isn’t that time traveling in vain?

Female time travel novels rarely contain military and political struggles. The heroine traveled back in time to fall in love with the emperor's brothers.

At that time, all the female channels were in love with the digital party...

Of course Shen Xudong can invest in a few movies and make sure he doesn't lose money.

Isn’t this inner resistance?

As a human being, when you have money, you will always have other ideas...

Besides, the money-making projects are gone, so there is no need to hold on to Qingchuan!

Shen Xudong returned home and continued writing his "Snow Leopard" and "The Detective of the Republic of China"...

The movie script of "The Detective of the Republic of China" is quite simple, refer to "The Detective of Tang Lang"...

No, I should refer to "Sherlock Holmes" and "River God".

After all, the two male protagonists and the female protagonist will be left to Zeng Li!

Two men and two women... Let’s see how the first one is received. If it’s good, we’ll find another one!

The cost is tentatively estimated at 8 million to 12 million...

Just look for Zhang Jianya as the director.

He was paired with two assistant directors, Li Hongchang and Lu Yang.

Cultivate your own director!

He is writing in retreat here, and in Hong Kong, the promotion of "Cruel Streets" has officially started.

"Cruel Streets" is the first film produced and distributed by Golden Harvest after three years of filming. In 2002, Golden Harvest filmed "Lucky Superman" starring Tony Leung and Miriam Yeung. However, it failed to achieve good results and announced the launch of the film production field to focus on Cinema management…

"Cruel Street" heralds Jiahe's renewed ambition!

In fact, Golden Harvest's wrinkles are the person who best represents the glory of Hong Kong movies, even more representative than Shaw Run Run, Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and other famous filmmakers in film history.

Relying on the independent production system, it found Bruce Lee, who could not get along with Shaw Brothers, and successfully promoted Bruce Lee to the world. Unfortunately, Bruce Lee died young, but Golden Harvest used the same routine to win over the king of comedy, Xu Guanwen, in 1970 Jackie Chan was also signed in the late 1990s, and the contract lasted for twenty years.

However, although his employment, management, and business capabilities are top-notch, because he adopted a profit-sharing mindset and absorbed a bunch of satellite companies, Zou Wenhuai actually didn’t earn much money, and his net worth was a fraction of Shaw Run Run’s...

Therefore, last year, Wrinkles Huai absorbed Li Jiacheng's investment - after undergoing some internal structural changes, Jiahe transformed from a film production and distribution company into a chain of cinemas.

After all, Golden Harvest is an old film company. It has a lot of theaters under its control, and the functional agencies of various major departments have also retained some backbones. Once these people play their role, they can still set off a wave of discussion!

Regardless of the quality of this movie, the promotional lineup is truly unprecedented—it premiered in Hong Kong and invited Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung to help out.

It is said that the call was made by Wuxianhuai himself...

Wrinkles pregnant…

Also attended the Hong Kong premiere event.

Shen Xudong was not invited...

It's normal. After all, Shen Xudong is the screenwriter behind the scenes - Jiahe gathered a lot of high-quality screenwriters back then: Situ Zhuohan, Huang Bingyao, Deng Jingsheng...

Nor was there a huge push to promote them.

I heard that Shen Xudong is very popular in mainland China. When "Cruel Streets" starts promoting in the mainland, Shen Xudong will need to take the lead...

Then the media interviewed Shen Xudong with various questions...

After all, of the two movies "The Village Fox Wife" and "The Legend of the Hunters of Anling Mountains", one made 31.8 million Hong Kong dollars, setting a new box office record for local horror films in Hong Kong, and the other ("The Legend of the Hunters of Xing'an Mountains") also scored 2,750 Hong Kong dollars. The box office of HK$10,000 ranked firmly among the top ten of the year...

Shen Xudong is on fire!

Many media directly asked if Shen Xudong had a conflict with Jiahe.

Wrinkle Huai is a little confused. Shouldn't he first ask Jiahe why he filmed "Cruel Streets"?

But he still answered seriously: "No... We have discussed with him. He feels that he is not well-known in Hong Kong and has no effect on the promotion of the film, so he will not come..."

"He is also very famous in Hong Kong!"

"...Maybe he doesn't know it himself..."

Another media asked: "Do you know about the conflict between him and Johnnie To?"

Wrinkle-Huai shook his head: "...I'm not sure...but I think a young man as talented as him must have his own ideas. It's normal for him to break up with Johnnie To!"

"Will you continue to cooperate?"

Wrinkle-Huai nodded: "Well, we have signed three dramas so far. After "Cruel Streets" there are also "Hurricane Rescue" and "New World", and the directors have been found..."
