This star is too fierce

Chapter 280 Do You Think It's Reasonable?
What are the special effects of "Resident Evil"?

That depends on which movies you compare it to.

If compared with those Hollywood sci-fi blockbusters, it can be ignored.

Can't compare.

But if compared with "Source Code", there are naturally more.

For example, the licker in the film undoubtedly needs a lot of special effects.

Of course, there are still corresponding props.

A large part of the reason why it was able to start up one month earlier than expected is that it took much less time to build props and scenes than expected.

It starts in September, and the shooting cycle is normal for two to three months, which is basically the same as in December.

New Year's Eve falls at the end of January this year.

In less than two months, it was obviously difficult to complete the production, and naturally it was impossible to keep up.

What's more, Zhang Sheng didn't plan to let "Resident Evil" be released during the Spring Festival.

"Are you going to release "Big Wrist" during the Spring Festival?" Gu Sisi continued to ask.

Changsheng Entertainment is a frequent visitor to the Spring Festival stalls, and is the biggest winner of the Spring Festival stalls every year.

Even if it is not the champion, it is the biggest winner.

From small to big, I don't know how many people's eyes are red.

Every time Changsheng Entertainment is not favored, it can always perform miracles.

"Not yet." Zhang Sheng shook his head and said, "The company intends to shoot "Baby Wisdom 2" to enter the Spring Festival. If this movie is filmed, "Big Wrist" will not be released on the National Day file, then it will be released on Christmas and New Year's Day."

For schedule selection, Zhang Sheng prefers the latter.

""Baby Wisdom Star 2"?" Gu Sisi paused for a moment, then said, "Aren't you going to make "Resident Evil"? You're not directing the sequel!"

If Changsheng Entertainment shoots, Zhang Sheng obviously doesn't have time to direct.

However, the biggest selling point of "Baby Smart Stars" is obviously not the director Zhang Sheng.

"When filming the first film, I already stated that I would not direct the sequel." Zhang Sheng said, "However, I wrote the script for the sequel."

"Tang Hao starring?" Gu Sisi said.

"Ok!"

Zhang Sheng nodded.

Tang Hao's popularity is not low now.

After "Baby Wisdom Stars" became popular, he immediately became a favorite, and he took on many movies and TV shows.

Although it may not be the protagonist, or it may be the protagonist when he was a child, but he is definitely the hottest child star in the circle now.

And he is really talented in acting.

Among the contracted actors of Changsheng Entertainment, the most profitable one is Tang Hao.

He also has the most endorsements.

Of course, most of them are children's products.

"Where are Shen Bo and Wang Jun?" Gu Sisi continued to ask.

In "Baby Wisdom Stars", Tang Hao is very brilliant, but Shen Bo and Wang Jun who played the two stupid thieves undoubtedly left a deep impression on people.

"Those two stupid thieves are still in jail!" Zhang Sheng shook his head.

The second part of the original version of "Baby Wisdom Star" tells the story of the protagonist who gets lost in New York, encounters the two stupid thieves he met before in this completely unfamiliar metropolis alone, and uses his methods to teach the two stupid thieves a lesson.

Those two stupid thieves are the two from the first part.

And they escaped.

Such a stupid thief escaped from prison.

So unreasonable.

What's more, if this matter is put in the country, it will be too disharmonious.

Therefore, for the sequel of the film, Zhang Sheng did not refer to the second film, but to the plot of the third film.

Gu Sisi did not continue to ask.

As an audience, she is definitely interested in this sequel.

Ask too many questions, understand the plot, and wait for the film to be released, it will seem a bit less flavorful.

But as an actor, then I have no interest.

It is impossible for her to play a buffoon to complement the protagonist, even if the protagonist is a child.

She is not yet at the point where she can drop her image and play a buffoon.

Will there be a sequel to "Baby Wisdom Star"?

In fact, it is not a sequel, but a whole new story.

The investment in this series is small, but the income is high.

Make sure you don't lose.

It's just hard to say how much you earn.

Shoot, definitely want to shoot.

It's just that who will direct it still needs to be discussed.

However, Zhang Sheng didn't care.

He believes that Lu Wenhua can find a reliable director for this movie.

""Baby Wisdom" and "Source Code" have been screened in countries and regions such as Europe and the United States." Zhou Zhao said.

As for Changsheng Entertainment's other films, the filmmakers over there seem to be ignorant of them.

Maybe it's a different joke.

However, foreign websites can be seen.

Copyright is sold.

It's just that the price is not high.

Mosquitoes are small, but they are also meat.

Changsheng Entertainment will not stop selling foreign websites because of low copyright fees.

Not to mention, the copyrights of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" and "Dragon Babu" have sold a lot abroad.

Most of them are in Asia.

The sales in Europe and the United States are not very good.

Of course, there are also very good ones.

"Fist of Fury" became popular in other Asian countries and regions.

Europe and the United States also caused a lot of repercussions.

The overseas copyright of this TV series is undoubtedly the best seller.

"The box office isn't great, is it?" Zhang Sheng said.

The original version of "Baby Smart Stars" caused a sensation in North America.

The box office was amazing.

Otherwise, this series will not shoot so many films.

But this time and that time.

If the background is Western, the actors are also European and American faces, and the investment and production party is a Hollywood company.

That may still have the possibility of getting a high box office.

now
forget it!
It is estimated that it will be released in North America, because grandma does not love it, and uncle does not love it.

"It's not bad. "Baby Wisdom" is estimated to have a box office of 500 million in North America." Zhou Zhao said, "It is estimated that other countries and regions are not much different."

"U.S. dollars?" Zhang Sheng said.

"nature!"

Zhou Zhao said.

If it only has a box office of 1000 million Chinese dollars, that's not bad.

It's better to let the other party buy out directly, and ask for box office dividends.

"What about "Source Code"?" Zhang Sheng asked, "Should it be much lower?"

"Baby Wisdom Star" foreign box office 1000 million US dollars?

Compared with the original version, it is a fraction.

Compared with the domestic box office, it is even more difficult to catch the eye.

However, like Zhou Zhao, Zhang Sheng felt that the box office was already good.

Want to have the same box office as the original?

Dream it!
Among other things, the number of theaters that are shown varies greatly.

Naturally, it is far less attractive to movie fans in North America.

There are too many factors that affect the box office of a movie.

The box office of Chinese-language movies in North America has never been very good.

Even if the movie quality is excellent.

Apart from the difference in the tastes of movie fans in the two places, it may have nothing to do with the deliberate suppression of the film and television circles there.

They are afraid of the rise of Chinese-language films.

"200 million!" Zhou Zhao said.

Although he expected it, Zhang Sheng couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth.

He is confident that his version of "Source Code" is much better and more exciting than the original.

But compared with the box office of the original version in North America, the difference is too big.

Not even a fraction.

The original box office really has no reference value.

If there is a chance, Zhang Sheng really wants to make an original film that was well-received and not well-received, and he will try it out.

"Mosquitoes are small, but they are also meat!"

Zhang Sheng comforted himself.

People need to be content.

Whether it's "Baby Wisdom" or "Source Code", these two films have already made a lot of money, so I should be content.

He never imagined that these two films could cause waves internationally.

Changsheng Entertainment will shoot the sequel of "Baby Wisdom Star", which instantly attracted the attention of countless people inside and outside the circle.

Fans look forward to it.

And what about other film and television companies?

would like to participate in the investment.

But the investment in this kind of film is so big, where does it need to attract investment.

What's more, if you make a steady profit without losing money, and it may be a big profit, why should you take advantage of others?
If you take the risk, then you can earn money together, which is nothing.

You want a piece of the risk-free film, what about dreams?
"Wolf Warrior" is looking for you, you are not optimistic, do not vote.

Want to vote now?

how is this possible.

Changsheng Entertainment rejected investment from other companies, but did not reject other cooperation.

Such as distribution.

For example, the actor test situation and so on.

The director of the film was also quickly identified: Zhu Zhigao.

He is the director of Baodao.

He is good at comedies and has also made children's films.

His previous films were still very popular, but now his reputation is not as good as before.

However, the ability is still beyond doubt.

When Zhang Sheng discussed the script with him, he gained a lot.

"Do you think our company should consider online universities or online dramas?"

Changsheng entertainment executives met, Zhang Sheng asked.

"Isn't "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern" just an online drama?" Ji Hongsheng asked.

Changsheng Entertainment now has two dramas in hand.

"Bright Sword" has been completed and is busy with post-production.

However, "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is still filming.

"That drama is not led by our company." Zhang Sheng said.

The filming and production team of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is from Kylin Film and Television.

Changsheng Entertainment is the largest investor and also participates in filming and production, but does not lead.

"Do you want to use low-cost online dramas or online universities to cultivate a team." Lu Wenhua looked at Zhang Sheng and asked.

He joined the job much earlier than Ji Hongsheng, and he has dealt with Zhang Sheng much more, so he naturally has a deeper understanding of Zhang Sheng.

There must be a purpose for Zhang Sheng to propose this.

Make money?
Online universities or online dramas will naturally make money, but Changsheng Entertainment may not be interested in it now.

Theatrical movies have been successful in succession, and TV dramas have also become popular.

If you can be on the stars, or even on CCTV, why do you want to engage in online dramas?

If "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is not a special interest, it can only be an online drama, and I am afraid that Changsheng Entertainment may not be interested.

Wouldn't it be good to directly adapt it into a movie and go to theaters?
"That's what I mean." Zhang Sheng said, "I think Changsheng Entertainment needs its own screenwriting team. So far, the company has provided me with all the scripts for movies and TV. Do you think it's reasonable?"

Is it reasonable?
Naturally unreasonable.

A mature film and television company should have its own screenwriting team.

With so many good dramas and movies in Zhang Sheng's mind, he can fully support Changsheng Entertainment's script supply.

But he didn't want to.

It's not that he's lazy, but from the company's point of view, such a company is undoubtedly deformed.

If you want to make the company bigger and stronger, then you must get the company on the right track.

To what extent can the company supported by him alone develop?
What's more, if there is a screenwriting department, then many scripts that Zhang Sheng doesn't want to write can completely come up with outlines and let the screenwriting department directly complete them.

Save time and effort, maybe there will be surprises.
