Chapter 741 How Much Money Do You Have?
It was the first road show, and the audience was very enthusiastic and asked questions.
There are a lot of questions, the most common one is "Why doesn't Wang Sheng take concubines?"
Chen Jiashang responded with something like 'because he loves Pei Rong very much'...
Obviously, this answer did not satisfy the audience. One man even got up and asked about the definition of concubine.
"The so-called concubine is actually the plaything of the male master and the surrogate womb of the female master. Moreover, whether it is the three obediences and four virtues, the seven virtues, or the female virtues, they all have restrictions on women.
One of them is: Don’t be jealous.
Jealousy is a sin.
Even in terms of popular moral concepts, if a woman, a legitimate wife, takes the initiative to take a concubine for her husband, she will be regarded as a moral model. Therefore, Xiao Wei's concubine will not affect Pei Rong's status..."
Chen Jiashang looked helplessly at Shen Xudong, who said directly: "Don't think too much, this is the story of a mistress who falls in love with a married man, and the costumes are just a fictitious dynasty... We borrowed Pu Songling's original work A more modern story is explored!”
"Then...Wang Sheng loves Xiao Wei or Pei Rong more?"
"What do you think?"
"I think it's Xiao Wei, because he admitted, 'I love you, but I already have Pei Rong'..."
Shen Xudong smiled: "What you said makes sense...Does anyone else agree with this point of view?"
Immediately a woman stood up: "I think Wang Sheng loves Pei Rong more. The sentence 'I love you' has more of a compromise meaning, 'I admit that I love you, please let my family go. , If it doesn't work, let me die!'
Pei Rong is very pitiful, and Wang Sheng is also very miserable, right? Saving someone, almost destroying the whole family, who is the culprit? It’s Xiao Wei! Do you think Wang Sheng dares to love her and live with her, what kind of international joke is this? "
A bunch of people nodded in agreement: "Yes, I also think that when Wang Sheng said I love you to Xiao Wei, he meant to beg you to let us go!"
Shen Xudong waved his hand, looked at the boy who asked the question and said: "The movie is made for the audience to see. There is no standard answer. No matter how you understand it, it will be correct..."
…
"At the beginning, I also felt that Wang Sheng had a sense of responsibility for Pei Rong...because in the dream, Wang Sheng and Xiao Wei had a tumultuous relationship...After filming the movie, I accidentally thought of the character setting of "Painted Skin". Xiao Wei is What? Xiao Wei is a fox demon
Isn't that what she's best at: confusing people? Isn’t it easy to control Wang Sheng’s dreams? "
The second road show was held at Wanda Cinemas. Deng Chao answered the audience's question about who Wang Sheng loved more: "I personally feel that Wang Sheng loves Pei Rong from the beginning to the end..."
"Moreover, at the end of the movie, Xiao Wei saved Pei Rong and Wang Sheng with his own life. Pei Rong came back to life, and Wang Sheng also died with Pei Rong. In fact, his responsibility to Pei Rong is over...
But Wang Sheng owed his life to Xiao Wei. With his responsible character and his love for Xiao Wei, he would never live alone. He could die with Pei Rong, whom he didn't love, but couldn't he accompany her to death? Will my beloved Xiao Wei die?
But he chose to live well!
I think this is proof! "
Chen Jiashang nodded: "In "Painted Skin" in "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio", Pu Songling deliberately wanted to squeeze out the word "小" under the man's leather robe, so Wang Sheng in his painting is a man who forgets his love. , a cowardly and incompetent guy... In the past, Bao Fang's version of Wang Sheng was greedy for fame and fortune, which was reviled by the world. Hu Jinquan's version of the scholar was a romantic and obsessed with wine and sex, which were all negative teaching materials for men to settle down and build a family. Therefore, I will make "Painted Skin", Wang Sheng must be deeply affectionate, sentimental and virtuous, and remain loyal and unfazed in the face of the fox demon's full love..."
Wu Jing also chimed in: "Wang Sheng doesn't believe that Xiao Wei is a demon. It's not that he doesn't believe in Pei Rong, but that he doesn't believe that there are demons in the world. When it comes to character settings in the play, he and I both Military generals who take it upon themselves to bring peace to the world and protect the people are heroic figures. Deep down in our hearts, we do not believe in monsters..."
"Why do you want to join the role of the monster hunter?"
Shen Xudong replied: "Actually, it is to connect the stories of "Liao Zhai". It is impossible for us to make just one "Painted Skin". That would be too sorry for Pu Songling's so many stories... Adding the role of a monster hunter can combine the characters of "Painted Skin" The world view extends infinitely... For example, we will do "A Chinese Ghost Story", "Xia Nv", "Xin Shisi Niang" next... we can even add many new stories..."
…
After visiting five theaters, the first day of the road show was over, and Shen Xudong sent the crew to the airport...
Oh, the crew of "Painted Skin" has to fly to Shanghai overnight and will be promoting in Shanghai all day tomorrow.
Shen Xudong no longer has to fly around with the crew.
As a producer and producer, you have to follow the whole country for movie promotion, which is too cheap!
Taking the time to attend a few shows can already represent Shen Xudong's attitude.
The publicity team very thoughtfully arranged for Chen Hao to ride in a car with him...
After getting dressed, Shen Xudong restarted the car and asked casually: "...How does it feel to be a top female star?"
"...That's it...the pay has gone up a bit, and there are more choices..."
"The people you come into contact with are also different, right?"
Chen Hao rolled his eyes: "How can I have time to meet people... I will take on two TV series and two movies this year... I also have to find time to shoot commercials, promotional videos, and participate in some activities that I cannot refuse..."
"You are popular...so everyone is looking for you...wait until next year and find time to take a long vacation for yourself..."
"I'm resting...where can I go?" Chen Hao glanced at Shen Xudong: "Who wants to accompany me?"
"You can go wherever you want...find whoever you want..."
"Then I want to find you!"
"Me?" Shen Xudong was about to find an excuse to refuse, but Chen Hao said again: "Forget it, I will be busy for another two years. I have set a goal for myself to retire after earning 100 million!"
Shen Xudong couldn't help but glance at her sideways: "I'm retiring with just a small goal...I'm telling you, if you stick to it for a few more years, believe it or not, your salary for a movie can exceed 100 million!"
Chen Hao was speechless: "Repay 100 million...are you talking about Japanese yen or Korean won?"
“RMB!”
"You...you know how to talk nonsense. How can any crew be willing to spend 100 million to hire an actor to act in a play? Even if there is such a crew, how much does a play cost?"
"…hehe."
Shen Xudong sneered...
In later generations, the sky-high film remuneration was repeatedly prohibitive.
It is estimated that these things Shen Xudong said now are regarded as heavenly scriptures...
Indeed, Tianbao was paid 80 million yuan, and Sister Shuang was paid 160 million yuan for one movie...
You would never expect that a production company would actually offer invitations with such a price...
Chen Hao suddenly remembered something: "Hey, have you read the reports on the Internet?"
"What report?"
"Just a guess about how much money you made this summer..."
"No need to guess..." Shen Xudong smiled, and then said: "I don't know either!"
"You don't know how much money you have?"
"You know what?"
Chen Hao calculated it silently, then nodded: "I know, the bank deposit is about 15 million... The rest of the money was used to buy Tengxun and Moutai stocks according to your recommendation..."
