In the Beginning, I Just Wanted to Make Money

Chapter 898 There Is a Martial Arts Movie, Will You Act in It? (34)

The cost of "The Band of Thieves" is about 150 million, and 20% of the investment is 30 million. Jingtian's Starlight invested 50 million, and only 20% of the share...

This is giving money!

Of course, the most important thing is that the female characters in "The Band of Thieves" do not need strong acting skills. They just need to be good-looking and have qualified acting skills.

Moreover, the partnership between Jing Tian and Deng Chao can also attract fans of "Run" to watch the movie.

This is something Fan Xiaopang doesn’t have!

"You big stars all want to eat ready-made!"

"Eat ready-made?"

"Good resources, to put it bluntly, they are the best. Big stars have the privilege of "doing whatever they see is popular". Isn't this true?"

Fan Xiaopang nodded: "Yes."

"Of course big stars won't be used as guinea pigs. They just pick up ready-made people after the experiment is successful.

Sitting back and enjoying the success is the beginning of falling behind. "

"How can sitting back and enjoying the success become the beginning of falling behind?"

"Let me ask you, if there is a good script now, the director is a newcomer, and the male protagonist is also a TV drama star... I want you to play the female lead, would you be willing?"

"The script is very good? Will the project be successful?"

"Hard to say…"

Fan Bingbing thought for a while and shook his head: "Then, there is a high probability that my team will not let me pick it up!"

This is normal...

It’s not that A-list female stars are unwilling to cut their salaries. The real difficulty is the psychological positioning of the project level. From her perspective, the way to think about the problem is that if the price is reduced and the movie has not made a big noise, then it means that both sides are not occupied. , and also damage the status of the world!

"I think it's more likely that you won't see this type of script!"

After a pause, Shen Xudong said something: "I heard someone complaining some time ago that 'the script is so stupid', and then I thought it was quite ridiculous. With a salary of tens of millions, a screenwriter who complains about tens or even thousands of royalties If you don’t produce good things, you won’t do this…”

"Everyone thinks they are awesome. All the books and cooperations are passed to you through the agent, and then you are asked to turn over the brands. You think you have the power of the emperor. In fact, what you see is selected, and not all. Wheels are multiple rounds. A group of people somewhere where you can't see have already decided what books you can see. But you think that the best books in the world have been presented to you, and you complain about this every day. What kind of stupid book is this?"

"Who said that?"

"You don't care who said it... just say it's like this."

Fan Xiaopang retorted: "...Then I finally get to the front line, and I must take on good projects!"

"Then you should screen carefully and don't always accept bad movies... In the long run, you will give the audience a certain impression..."

"What's the stereotype?"

Shen Xudong said: "The movies you have acted in are all bad! Once this impression is formed, it will be difficult to change. It does not mean that you can change it by making one or two good movies..."

"That…"

"No more...are you full?"

"Well...I've been full for a long time."

"Get down to business...take a shower first!"

The wind rises at the end of Qingping. Fortune seems elusive, but it is the inevitable result of the accumulation of countless small choices.

Traffic and good works may naturally not be compatible with both. One cannot want everything.

There was a stage when big names moved from movies to big IP dramas with great fanfare.

Zhou Xun's "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace", Zhang Ziyi is preparing for "The Legend of Emperor Huang", and Fan Xiaopang is stepping into the curse of "The Legend of Ba Qing" step by step.

Taking advantage of the situation, Chen Kun and Ni Ni also filmed "Phoenix Quan: Game of the World", plus Tang Wei's "The Princess of Ming Dynasty"...

There are more than a hundred episodes on the record, all adapted from the ancient Internet romance Mary Sue, which is euphemistically called a big IP and a big heroine.

The leading actors also received huge salaries.

The creators repeat their ideals over and over again in public, such as a great heroine...

People are all about making money.

Later, those who were Chuan, Huang, and Ye were suppressing, and the industry's wind direction changed several times.

The classical Mary Sue, which was longer than a foot wrap, really became a foot wrap and was abandoned by the audience.

The giant cakes have been renamed, shrunk, and deleted several times, and finally sold to the platform in a big sale. The thunder was heavy and the raindrops were light, ending in the streets.

Celebrities like Fan Xiaopang may have experienced an era when acting was regarded as art, so while making money, they still couldn't let go of the burden of being a "good actor".

So it became a matter of focusing on the cutting edge, while also eyeing those who stand on the front line of the turning point of the industry and create conditions...

The most typical person in this regard is Huang Xiaoming!

Famous second part enthusiast.

Noon has not yet become a benchmark in the industry. When he was filming a popular film and a popular film, he turned down the filming opportunities with him.

Later, "Nirvana in Fire" became popular, and he took over "Nirvana in Fire 2".

Yu Zheng made a comeback with "Story of Yanxi Palace", so he went to film Yu Zheng again, and by the way, he also took advantage of the Dangai fever - "The Sideburns Are Not Begonia Red"!

The results are far less good than those of the previous films that were unintentionally inserted and had no preset thoughts of becoming popular.

Fan Xiaopang is a little better. She collaborated with Feng Xiaogang in "I'm Not Pan Jinlian", and then Cao Baoping's "She Kills"...

But at the same time, she also filmed "Grand Trail", "Legend of the Gods", "Bombing"...

Want them all!

It's difficult for an actress to pass 35...

The film and television industry is an industry with a high density of appearance. In the Internet age, the advantages and disadvantages of stars' appearance have been infinitely magnified. In order to improve their competitiveness, actors have to "maintain" a youthful image, although it is cruel. , but this is determined by the special industry of film and television.

Since ancient times, beauties are like famous generals, and they are not allowed to grow old in the world.

Unless you transform into a powerful group, Hui Yinghong is a good example!

Back then, she was first appreciated by Zhang Che, and then promoted by Liu Jialiang - in "North and South Shaolin" back then, it was said that the beauty Liu Jialiang held in his arms was Hui Yinghong!

Oh, it was director Liu Jialiang who asked a group of actors to run outside to enjoy the cold wind in the early morning, and then arrived late with his arms around the girl, saying that he would shoot tomorrow because he was late today...

In the morning, Fan Xiaopang woke up around nine o'clock...

After looking at her phone, her management team didn’t contact her either - she was on leave for three days...

After briefly washing up, I arrived in the living room. Shen Xudong was working. He looked up and said, "Wake up... have something to eat. They're all here!"

"Um…"

Fan Xiaopang was sitting at the dining table, eating, and asked, "What time did you get up?"

"...I was woken up by my mobile phone, so I simply stopped sleeping...It must have been around seven o'clock..."

"Something happened?"

Shen Xudong shook his head: "No...it's a happy event!"

"happy event?"

"You know PPTV, right?"

"I know, the video website you make...I heard it is supported by Baidu?"

"...Baidu is just one of the investors..." Shen Xudong returned to the topic: "PPTV is going to make its own drama, you know, right?"

Fan Xiaopang was confused, but nodded: "I know..."

"At around 7 o'clock, the content person in charge of PPTV told me that Gong Li had signed a contract with "Three Kingdoms"..."

"Ahem..." Fan Xiaopang choked directly. While coughing, he asked: "Gong Li? Is it...that Gong Li?"

"Yes... We plan to create 12 seasons of "Three Kingdoms". Gong Li will star in the first season, playing the role of Queen Mother He..."

"PPTV's own drama...is an online drama, right?"

"It's a web drama... but "Three Kingdoms" is a super web drama. The production cost of the first season was US$40 million..."

Fan Xiaopang immediately asked: "...How many more super web dramas do you have?"

"...You want to act too?"

"Um…"

Shen Xudong thought about it for a moment, and then said: "There is a martial arts movie, will you act in it?"

"Martial arts?"

"It's the kind of person who travels to the world of martial arts..."
