Chapter 686 It’s Hard to Say
After the news that Shen Xudong was playing one dragon and two phoenixes in Hong Kong was exposed by the Hong Kong media, domestic entertainment also followed up and reported it, and then it was public relations by Tianmei Company...
Several major entertainment weekly magazines all deleted the article.
Only a few small and low-profile newspapers reported relevant news.
Mainly, the company feels that Shen Xudong should not have a romantic personality!
After all, Shen Xudong has never disclosed his romantic partner, so he is not suitable for this kind of persona...
And although romantic is a neutral word, it... itself has a derogatory effect.
Conflict with Shen Xudong’s sunny image...
So, buy out the coverage.
But the news spread like wildfire in the industry, and many actresses and agents found it unbelievable - doesn't Shen Xudong like mature women?
Why did the taste suddenly change?
Therefore, they don't understand Xudong at all. Xudong thinks that he has no special hobbies, he just likes beautiful women, and he prefers big bears and good figures!
As for age, he doesn't choose between 18 and 40 years old.
Back to this, this news made Chen Hao very angry...
Chen Hao is now a veritable front-line actor: awards, box office performance, commercial endorsements, and national popularity are all there.
She has always had no shortage of suitors.
Even when the crew is filming, there are many luxury cars visiting...
After all, the sexy route was the main focus in the early years, and many rich kids thought about having a kiss or having a romantic relationship...
She also tried dating.
I don't feel that good, far worse than Shen Xudong, both physically and mentally.
It's a pity that last year, Shen Xudong was as busy as a spinning top and didn't meet her a few times at all. The few times he met her were at major awards venues...
After awarding the award, he left!
I always feel like he doesn't care much about me...
He even encouraged her to fall in love and get married.
So, I just bit him on the shoulder...
Then she was held down and spanked by Shen Xudong...
…
"I feel like you don't like Senior Sister Zhang very much? What? Do you have a story?"
Shen Xudong shook his head: "...What kind of story can there be? She attended various parties in Hollywood, got along well with Wendi Deng, and had a good relationship with Harvey. I have no intersection with her..."
"Then you shouldn't dampen her enthusiasm for fundraising!"
"...fundraising...okay..."
With this initiative, Zhang Ziyi gained a lot of good reputation, and even won the 2009 Annual Charity Award and the China Charity of the Year Award...
Then the fraudulent donation incident broke out. She explained through the team, "Many of them were pledged and no money was paid. Those who have done charity should be very aware of the difficulty of chasing money"...
A pledge, called a pledge, is not a donation. How much money do you pledge first, and then cash it out...
This explanation is unreasonable.
If she wasn't so pretentious and used the national crisis to promote herself, she should have made it clear when she received the charity award instead of explaining it afterwards!
——The reason for winning the award is because it raised a large amount of donations from abroad.
If you are on horseback and do something wrong, just blame it on the team?
You really want to do a charity event but you don’t even ask about the follow-up to the Cannes fundraiser?
More than 60,000 people died and 370,000 people were injured. Are they just for show?
In fact, she is a typical person with low quotient.
Shen Xudong despises her!
…
"We are planning to release it on June 9th, which coincides with the end of the college entrance examination. How about you?"
"Then let's release it on June 9th... at the same time."
"Let's move it a week in advance... After all, "Kung Fu Panda" will be released on June 20..."
Shen Xudong met Zheng Taicheng of CJ Entertainment in Cannes, and the two chatted about the upcoming "20 Again".
Jung Tae Sung wants to be released on the same day...
Shen Xudong refused - "Kung Fu Panda" is a DreamWorks movie, and it just so happens that CJ Entertainment is one of the shareholders of DreamWorks...
In February 1995, CJ invested US$300 million to create DreamWorks together with Spielberg, Katzenberg, David Geffen and other top figures in the Hollywood entertainment industry, and thus obtained the Asian rights to the films produced by DreamWorks. copyright, and thus began to enter the film and television industry.
In other words, the Asian copyright of "Kung Fu Panda" belongs to CJ Entertainment...
Of course, CJ is also very optimistic about "Kung Fu Panda", so it is natural for him to suggest the release, but Zheng Taicheng is still a little hesitant: "Then why does China have to wait until June 9 to release it?"
"Didn't I say? We have to wait until the college entrance examination is over!"
Jung Tae-sung came to support "Mother". Bong Joon-ho's work was not shortlisted for the main competition unit, a kind of attention unit.
Korean filmmakers work really hard to market their work.
There is even a Korean pavilion set up at the Cannes Film Festival to train film sales talents!
It's a pity that the most important thing about a country's movies is its culture and heritage!
Things like movies belong to culture. Once the door to the cultural field is opened and strong culture takes advantage of it, it will take a few years to swallow up the family business accumulated over decades!
After "Parasite", Korean filmmakers actually began to drift away. They continued to relax restrictions on the introduction of overseas films. Local blockbusters also began to gradually become European and American, integrating themselves into the so-called American consciousness...
Then, he was spoiled!
The so-called overseas influence of Korean films is not very optimistic. Except for a few Korean films purchased by Netflix, the other 90% of Korean films still rely on the consumption power of the Korean domestic market.
Later, the Korean domestic market failed, and there was no such thing as Korean movies anymore...
I heard that the annual production of movies is less than 30!
No matter how awesome a movie is, it can't change a country!
Zheng Taicheng suddenly said: "Xijie did not buy "Red Cliff". We feel that there have been too many Three Kingdoms themes in the past two years..."
Shen Xudong thought for a while and then said: "I suggest you still fight for the copyright. After all, the investment scale of "Red Cliff" is still quite large."
"How's the quality?"
Shen Xudong made a pertinent comment: "Those who know "Three Kingdoms" will definitely not like it, but for most viewers who watch the show, "Red Cliff" is still quite lively!"
Zheng Taicheng scratched his head: "It has been taken away by Xiu Bao... Oh, Xiu Bao is Showbox..."
"Oh, how much did the copyright cost?"
"$11 million...do you think it's expensive?"
"...How much is the box office of "Zhao Zilong 2" in South Korea?"
"2.6 million moviegoers, close to $16 million in box office..."
"What about the benefits?"
"...I can't tell you this. Anyway, our investment has been recovered and we have made 2 million US dollars!"
In fact, Shen Xudong has been told that the Korean copyright of "Zhao Zilong 2" is US$14 million.
According to the box office split, it is divided in half, that is, the box office revenue of 8 million US dollars, the subsequent audio and video copyrights, home entertainment copyrights...
By the way, CJ also owns a cinema chain - CGV cinema chain, which accounts for more than 50% of the Korean film market.
"Did Xiubao buy the full copyright or the upper part?"
"The two parts together cost 11 million US dollars!"
Shen Xudong nodded: "...That shouldn't be a big problem..."
In the original time and space, the two parts of "Red Cliff" together grossed more than 20 million U.S. dollars at the Korean box office. Even if "Zhao Zilong" will be released first this time, the reputation will decline and the total revenue will be affected, but it will not be impossible to recover the 11 million U.S. dollars. cost…
Shen Xudong helped analyze the prospects of "Red Cliff", and then Zheng Taicheng said: "The US$3 million copyright for "The Ancient City"...can it be less?"
