This star is too fierce

Chapter 344 Whether there is a problem, you have the final say
Jiang Bin is in a very good mood recently.

For the movie "Starry Night", his goal is to make a box office of 20 billion.

Who ever thought it would be achieved in eight days.

Of course, after the release of "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Terminator", 20 billion seems not enough.

This also raised his goals a lot.

Now it seems that it is also achievable.

With a box office of 30 billion, there is obviously no suspense.

The suspense is whether it can surpass the box office of "Terminator".

As for "Wolf Warrior 2", Jiang Bin never thought about it.

With the popularity of "Starry Sky", the publicity has gradually declined.

Zhang Sheng and others don't need to continue the road show.

However, Zhang is still busy.

"One is realistic." Zhang Sheng looked at Liu Yuan and said, "The other is "Detective Chinatown 2". You can choose one to shoot!"

""Detective Chinatown" hasn't been released yet, so I don't know how the response will be. Are you sure to continue filming?" Liu Yuan was a little surprised.

"Can you still rush to the street?" Zhang Sheng said.

Liu Yuan smiled.

How could it be possible to rush to the street.

That movie didn't cost much.

With the current box office appeal of him and Zhang Sheng, not to mention the return on the first day of the show, the possibility of losing money is unlikely.

In addition, the box office appeal of the cast is not low.

Wang Jun stopped talking.

His box office appeal has not yet been confirmed, but the national popularity is high.

In addition, Yihuo Zinc's popularity is not low.

His brainless fans can contribute a lot to the box office.

Of course, the most important thing is that Liu Yuan is very confident in the quality of his film.

"Forget it!" Liu Yuan said, "I'd better make this realistic movie! It's good to change the style, people can't always be in the comfort zone. Otherwise, it will inevitably lose a little passion."

Liu Yuan is good at comedy, there is no doubt about it.

Then comedies are naturally his comfort zone.

Zhang Sheng naturally had no objection to this.

Liu Yuan can also be regarded as the veteran of the company.

He has no less than one film a year, and each film has a very high box office.

Although Liu Yuan has no shares in the company, he earns a lot of money.

In addition to the annual salary given by the company, there is also a share of the movie box office.

There are a lot of the former, but the latter is the big one.

"I'm Not the God of Medicine?"

Liu Yuan looked at the title and was a little surprised.

"I'll read the script first, and then I'll discuss it with you."

Liu Yuan continued to say a word, took the script and left.

"I'm Not the God of Medicine" is a movie adapted from real events.

Zhang Sheng wrote the script and checked it out.

However, when the movie is put into this world, it is no longer an adaptation of real events.

It can be related to reality, and some information is naturally indispensable for inquiry.

For example, the drugs involved in it.

For a movie with realistic themes, you have to conform to reality, right?
The story doesn't change much.

Cheng Yong, a male health product vendor who couldn't pay the rent, brought back expensive generic drugs from India and sold them privately, which aroused police investigation.

From selfishness to selflessness, fighting for the patient's right to survival, and finally being arrested, he won dignity. The fate of multiple characters is also linked together because of the element of "medicine", deducing a unique grassroots life.

This film explores various contradictions and dilemmas in reality:

The survival dilemma of patients, the moral dilemma of drug dealers, the legal dilemma of the police, and the commercial dilemma of pharmaceutical companies.

While depicting the predicament, it makes people think about the predicament.

The warmth and hope contained in the subject matter, and the delicate realistic brushwork make people feel the human power of the film.

The more Liu Yuan reads this script, the more he likes it, and the more he reads it, the more frightened he becomes.

At the same time, he senses an opportunity.

A chance to win a prize.

Of course, he also felt the pressure.

After all, I've never made a movie like this before.

A work of transformation, if you are not careful, you will rush.

Liu Yuan didn't allow himself to screw up the movie.

"I have to do some research now, and then discuss it with you."

Liu Yuan read the script many times, but was not in a hurry to discuss it with Zhang Sheng.

For realistic movies, you have to understand reality first.

Zhang Sheng naturally had no objection to this.

He admired Liu Yuan's attitude towards movies.

Changsheng Entertainment is now developing steadily.

In terms of movies, in addition to the company's productions, the company has gradually increased its investment in some movies.

The same goes for TV shows.

The company produced basically no less than two.

Naturally, there are also two films released this year.

"Detective Chinatown" by Liu Yuan, "Resident Evil 2" by Zhang Sheng.

As for filming.

Liu Yuan will make one, and Zhang Sheng will participate in the North American "Singer" show in the first half of the year. It is hard to say whether he will make one in the second half of the year.

As for the TV series besides "Shanghai Bund", there is also an idol drama, which will start broadcasting this year.

As for shooting
The last part of the "Trilogy of Shooting the Condors", "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji" has been approved.

Ji Hongsheng is busy with this matter now.

In addition, in addition to the previous variety shows, Changsheng Entertainment will also cooperate with CCTV this year to produce a new variety show: "China in Classics".

The ratings for this show are actually not high.

However, the impact is not small.

What's more, in cooperation with CCTV, the ratings are important, but they are not that important.

Changsheng Entertainment didn't plan to make much money from this show.

Naturally, this show was also planned by Zhang Sheng.

He didn't expect how popular this show would be.

Of course, he is not perfunctory.

CCTV's programs must be more rules-based than local satellite TVs.

And their emphasis is not on ratings.

"Director Zhang!"

Zhang Sheng was busy with the post-production of "Resident Evil 2", but Zhang Wen came to the company.

He's apparently here for the new screenplay.

"You are also Director Zhang." Zhang Wen said with a smile, "You call me Lao Zhang, how about I call you Xiao Zhang? It always feels weird to call each other Director Zhang."

There are actually only two names for Zhang Sheng in the circle: Director Zhang and Mr. Zhang.

Anyone who is familiar with Zhang Sheng knows that he prefers to be called "Director Zhang".

Mr. Zhang's name is actually not worthy of the name.

He doesn't really care about the company at all.

"Oh, good."

Zhang Sheng froze for a moment, then nodded.

They don't know each other well, and the other party calls himself Xiao Zhang, so there's nothing wrong with that.

The opponent's qualifications are there.

But if you call the other party Lao Zhang, it would be somewhat impolite.

However, what the other party proposed was not a problem.

In a way, the two of them were in the same circle.

Now that they are about to cooperate again, it seems that it will be a matter of time before they are called Lao Zhang.

However, Zhang Sheng is still somewhat speechless now.

"I've heard a lot of your songs." Zhang Wen said with a smile, "A few of your songs have been integrated into the opera, so you should have studied Peking Opera?"

Zhang Wen does not talk about movies, but about Zhang Sheng's songs.

However, the latter words instantly made Zhang Sheng understand.

He doesn't want to make a movie about Peking Opera, does he?
"I can't talk about research, I have done some research." Zhang Sheng looked at Zhang Wendao first, "Director Zhang wants to make a story about Peking Opera?"

When Zhang Wen heard this, he immediately laughed.

Talking to smart people is easy.

"No problem?" Zhang Wen said.

"When I finish writing the script, Director Zhang has the final say on whether there is any problem." Zhang Sheng said.

When Zhang Wen heard it, the smile on his face became even bigger.

He asked no questions, but not just asking Zhang Sheng if he could create such a script.

There is another layer of meaning: Does he have a problem making such a movie.

Zhang Sheng is one of the investors.

Investors have a great say in what to shoot.

And Zhang Sheng's answer also gave the answer.

When mentioning a movie about Peking Opera, one instantly popped into Zhang Sheng's mind: "Farewell My Concubine"!
This film revolves around the joys and sorrows of two Peking opera actors for half a century, showing the thinking and understanding of traditional culture, human living conditions and human nature.

This film is one of the films with the highest artistic achievements in the Chinese film industry in the previous life.

Although it is a literary film, Zhang Sheng is still very confident in the box office.

It is impossible to lose money. If it can win an international award like the original version, it can be paid back by relying on foreign copyrights.

Winning an award will naturally stimulate the domestic box office.

It's hard to say how the box office will be, but it shouldn't be bad.

The original box office of this movie is obviously without any reference value.

However, even if this movie loses money, it is worth making.

What's more, the biggest investor in this movie must be Penglai Film and Television.

Even if they lost everything, Changsheng Entertainment would not be able to lose much money.

Therefore, Zhang Sheng is going to write the script, and he doesn't mind filming it for Zhang Wen.

He doesn't have much interest in these kinds of movies.

But if this classic work is put on the shelf, it seems a bit wasteful.

It seems to be a good choice to give Penglai Film and Television this movie.

Penglai Film and Television is not short of money and does not need to give them movies with amazing box office.

They need credit.

"Farewell My Concubine" should satisfy their need for honor.

Even if the international award cannot be won, the Golden Dragon Award should still be very possible.

Of course, Zhang Sheng is also a little bit reluctant if the film has a high box office and low risk.

Zhang Sheng became even busier.

Busy following up the post-production of "Resident Evil 2".

Busy writing the script of "Farewell My Concubine".

Writing this script is not just moving it over.

The information that should be checked still needs to be checked.

Otherwise, if there are some mistakes and omissions, it will be a joke.

In addition, he has to prepare some songs.

Prepare for the upcoming trip to North America to participate in "Singer".

While Zhang Sheng was busy, the new Golden Eagle Award, Golden Dragon Award, and the shortlist for the music festival were announced successively.

Zhang Sheng did not release a new song last year.

Naturally, he has nothing to do with the music festival.

He is now more concerned about the Golden Dragon Award.

Changsheng Entertainment was shortlisted for the three major awards in the domestic entertainment industry.

Last year, two TV dramas were launched, and both were shortlisted for awards.

Yihuo Zinc was shortlisted for the Best Newcomer Award for "My Love from the Star".

He was also shortlisted for the Most Popular Actor Award.

Liu Yun was also shortlisted for the Most Popular Actress Award for this drama.

In addition, Wen Feifei was also shortlisted for the Most Popular Actress Award with "The Legend of Heroes".

In addition, Zhang Sheng was shortlisted for the Outstanding Screenplay Award for "You Who Came from the Stars".

However, in Zhang Sheng's view, the possibility of winning is very low.

And what about the Golden Dragon Award?
Zhang Sheng's sense of participation is undoubtedly greater.
