Chapter 805 Casting for "Tang Detective"

Chapter 805 Casting for "Tang Detective"...

In fact, after Tianmei Media announced that it would take over "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", Tianmei's stock price experienced a surge...

It shows that the secondary market is still very optimistic about this movie!

The movie was released and Zhang Yi announced that he would join Tianmei, and the stock price rose again...

At this stage, the contribution of a single film to the performance of film and television companies is at its highest peak.

It stands to reason that rational investors do not only look at the box office performance of movies, but also pay more attention to the company's own operating performance, but... isn't this a barbaric era?

You know, the movie "囧" directly caused the market value of Raytheon to soar by 64%, and the total market value soared by 3.3 billion...

"Tianmei Media" itself is large, and the company's second shareholder is Baidu, and the third shareholder is Perfect World...

The disclosed profit is 1.3 billion - after all, it accounts for half of the hit movies and TV series!

The market value at the beginning of listing was 48 billion...

Before the release of "Thirteen Hairpins", Tianmei's total market value was 66 billion, so this increase may not seem big, but given its size, it's quite exciting!

However, at this stage, no one is particularly concerned about entertainment stocks, so even Tianmei Media is not too eye-catching.

Of course, those who are interested must have noticed...

We even concluded a rule: best-selling movies and award-winning movies will cause stock prices to fluctuate.

To summarize, I found that when the film list is released, the stock price will also experience a surge...

We may not be able to make big-selling movies or award-winning movies, but painting a cake... we are professionals.

Soon, there will be a wave of film listings...

Oh, Zhang Yimou also said, "I am very interested in "Hunting", but... this drama has been developed and the director's script is very good, but Xudong gave me three more scripts and asked me to choose... They are all good scripts and I am very interested in them!"

After "Thirteen Hairpins" was released, it inevitably had an impact on other movies.

This is normal. Movies, especially commercial blockbusters, are all about winner-take-all!

In a film market without classification, the winner-takes-all approach becomes even more obvious - without classification, there is no room for selection.

Bringing it back, the ones with the biggest impact are "First Love" and "The Legend of Hongmen Banquet". The former still had 40% of its film schedule at the beginning, but after "Thirteen Hairpins" was released, only 25% remained. The latter was even worse, with its film schedule cut in half. More to come!

After all, "First Love" is just a youth movie, and it has only been in theaters for twelve days, so the popularity of the movie has already dropped...

It must have been influenced by "Thirteen Hairpins". The box office in the third week was almost 34 million, and the cumulative box office was close to 310 million!

It’s already no small miracle.

"Legend of Hongmen Banquet" was relatively unlucky. It was suppressed by "First Love". It finally got a little better thanks to its reputation, and then "Thirteen Hairpins" came again, with a cumulative box office of 72 million...

The worst thing must be "Happy Magic". It is a boring movie in itself, and the promotion is not very good. Many theaters don't even have posters. After "Thirteen Hairpins" was released, most mainstream theaters directly released it...

On the 20th, the crew of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" returned to BJ for promotion, and Shen Xudong went there.

Watched the movie again...

The most amazing thing about Zhang Yi is that he has a sophisticated camera skills, and he can dig out the layered beauty of color formation, which is full of impact without appearing pretentious. This is the most disgusting thing about domestic art films. The technical shots are not good, and they rely on self-righteousness. The narration force-fed chicken soup.

However, he came here to support Nini!

"Tang Detective" is about to start... Oh, his new movie is "Tang Detective". The male protagonists are Wang Baoqiang and Bai Jingting, and now he has to choose the heroine A Xiang!

Bai Jingting was completely chosen. Shen Xudong asked the casting director to recommend a few more - he found six in total, and then found more than 20 little girls and played with them all afternoon.

Finally, I asked the group of girls who they liked best, and the girls chose Bai Jingting...

Then I found more than 20 young and mature women in their thirties to play with these men all afternoon. They asked the same questions again, and the one they chose was Bai Jingting...

That's him!

This project has not been made public yet, but people who are interested can still find out about it...

As a result, many people recommended themselves, and even fan Yang sent invitations, but... Shen Xudong still wanted to take a look at Nini first. After all, Yu Mo in "Thirteen Hairpins" is so charming!

Sometimes, I really admire Director Zhang's vision. Nini has a well-proportioned figure, thin but not dry, graceful figure, fair skin, good figure but not exaggerated, very attractive. The figure sways as she walks, full of charm and a layer of wild sexiness...

Ahem, I don’t know what characteristics he was attracted to in Liu Haocun. Could it be that he has a good destiny?

By the way, directors like Zhang Yimou don’t consider the background at all or in advance when selecting roles. Usually the assistant director projects the photos of all the women on the big screen, and then Zhang Yimou takes a look and turns the page. Next page…

Why do you say that?

At that time, there was a group in Taiwan called F4, which became popular after starring in the TV series "Meteor Garden". It was so popular that a reporter interviewed Zhang Yimou and asked him what he thought of F4. Zhang Yimou looked surprised and asked: Is the F4 the American fighter jet?

Zhang Yimou is still pretty good...

At that time, it was rumored on the Internet that the Ministry of Railways asked him to shoot a promotional video and spent 18.5 million...

Then Director Zhang was interviewed and publicly presented a bunch of information and contracts, saying, "The total remuneration he received was 2.5 million after tax, and he got it in two steps. The first part was 1 million, and the second part was 1.5 million. Both." For the contract, the company also paid taxes, and produced the first tax payment certificate.

It’s quite real!

It feels like Stephen Chow in "Nine Levels of Sesame Official" explaining to everyone in a serious manner that he doesn't have a strong woman to fuck a sow.

Who cares if you have a strong woman fucking a sow?

He did a lot of things that were hyped and praised all day long, and he also tried to interfere with other people's creative freedom. He pretended to be stupid when it came to money. They worked together for more than ten years and made eight or nine movies, but the money they earned was not as good as Gong's. Make a commercial!

If I leave you alone, can you bear it?

Backstage, backstage at the theater, Shen Xudong chatted with Zhang Yimou about Axiang from "Tang Detective": "I want that kind of romantic feeling..."

"What is her profession?"

"The landlord... owns a building in Chinatown..."

"You have to have a sense of society, right?"

"Yes...so I'm a little hesitant..."

Zhang Yimou nodded: "Take a look first, if it doesn't work, let's talk later!"

After calling Nini for him, Shen Xudong looked up and down...

She's a bit young, but she should be fine with makeup.

This woman is in bad luck. She is not as lucky as Zhang Ziyi when it comes to finding girls, and her qualifications and resources are not as good as those of Zhou Dongyu. Although her appearance is quite beautiful, she is not absolutely beautiful. She relies on publicizing her romance and street photos to increase her popularity...

But she was also lucky enough to catch up with a worse era - as an actress, she at least acted seriously, so she was not abandoned by the audience!

Nini was a little uneasy. Although she didn't know the real purpose of Shen Xudong calling her, she probably had a guess that it should be casting!

The heroine of Shen Xudong's first movie is Gong Li, and it goes without saying much about this one;

The second film is Bai Baihe. After "33 Days After Love", Bai Baihe has become the first choice for chick flicks. "Plastic Surgery Diary", "Breakup Contract", and "Waiting for the Wind" all have box office of over 100 million. Bai Baihe himself is also very popular. …

The third part Wang Zhi, Yang Mi...

Needless to say, Yang Mi, a top female star, and Wang Zhi took over the filming of Golden Harvest's "Crime City 3". I heard that there is also a series for her!

Nini also wants to be next!

This is normal. Who doesn’t want to become famous in the entertainment industry?

Shen Xudong looked at it for a while and then asked: "When will the promotion end?"

Nini quickly looked at the staff member who was following her. The latter was stunned for a moment and replied: "Today? It will end at six o'clock in the afternoon..."

"...Do you have any work tomorrow?"

"I have a magazine shoot tomorrow..."

Shen Xudong thought for a while: "Then let her go to the company the day after tomorrow..."

Nini wanted to say: "I have time at night..."

Isn't that embarrassing?

Haha, silly woman, you are unwilling to put down your face, but there are many people who are willing to let it go!
