My old bacon is back!

Chapter 209 Who is Qi Yuan?

Zhao Jie, the actor of Geng Hao, the male number one in "Crazy Racing".

In "Crazy Stone", he played Heipi, a supporting role with few roles.

Zhao Jie is 32 years old this year and has acted in dramas for many years.

He has always dreamed of acting.

But dreams cannot hold up to reality.

So for the past few years, he has been chasing his dream while working part-time jobs to support his family.

What he did the most in the past was to sell skewers outside his community. The taste was good, and there were quite a lot of people who bought them.

The chance to change his destiny comes from "Crazy Stone".

It was also a surprise that he was able to receive the invitation of this crew at that time.

Director Liu Shang is good friends with the dean of the theater where he works. From the dean, he knows that there are some drama actors with very good acting skills in the theater.

This made Zhao Jie and Liu Shang meet.

Liu Shang quickly decided on Zhao Jie to play Hei Pi.

Later, Zhao Jie learned that many of the actors in this movie were personally watched by the producer Qi Yuan.

For this movie, Zhao Jie got the most performance fee in his life, 12.

It took a total of seven days to shoot, and finally got 12 yuan.

This is incomparable with the monthly income of several thousand dollars in his repertory theater.

In many cases, if the tickets for the repertory theater cannot be sold, they are not even paid.

But Zhao Jie and many of his colleagues did not choose to leave.

Because they love this industry and love acting.

After "Crazy Stone", although he only played a supporting role in "Crazy Stone", Zhao Jie still received more invitations from the crew.

Of course, they are all supporting roles with few roles.

Zhao Jie still participated in some performances selectively.

In the crew, many people saw him in poor appearance and wondered how he got this supporting role."

When I asked, oh, it turned out that he participated in the box office champion "Crazy Stone" during the Spring Festival.

Good luck, really can rub ah.

That's right.

After starring in "Crazy Stone", although the movie became a hit.

But in fact, none of the actors who participated in this popular movie became popular.

Because of the existence of this script, the actors in this movie are basically the tools of the director. Under the command of the director, they complete the plot set by the screenwriter.

So after "Crazy Stone", Zhao Jie was able to receive some plays and come to make a living, but it is impossible to go further.

Until Liu Shang invited him to act in the second part of the Crazy series again.

And this time, he played the leading role of Geng Hao.

Zhao Jie is naturally very serious, and during the filming, he tried his best to portray the image of a racing driver who was tricked by an unscrupulous businessman.

And now, the film is officially released.

On the first day of the new year, "Crazy Racing" was released on the first day, with a box office of 6.5 million.

It ranks first in the Spring Festival stalls.

Directly dumped No. 22 billion.

Relying on the addition of the first crazy series, countless audiences walked into the cinema with high expectations.

This movie, compared to the first one, has the same multi-line narrative.

But the shooting technique is more mature, and the transition of the picture is clearer, quicker and clearer.

The personalities of the characters are more distinct and prominent in a few words.

This is a multi-line narrative comedy with a higher degree of completion than "Crazy Stone"!

In this Spring Festival file, such a movie will definitely kill people!
When did Zhao Jie realize that he seemed to be on fire?

That was when he went out in the morning and walked through the neighborhood to buy breakfast, someone suddenly called him Geng Hao!
"Ahhh! Are you Geng Hao!? Haha! I want to laugh when I see you now, the movie is so good!"

"Unexpectedly, I live in the same neighborhood as you!! Fate! Come on, come on, can I take a photo with you?"

When Zhao Jie was shopping for vegetables in the supermarket, there would be people pointing at him.

"Look quickly, is that person... is it Geng Hao?"

"What Geng Hao?!"

"You are stupid, the racing driver in "Crazy Racing" we saw yesterday, didn't the US dollars be put in his master's urn at the end!"

"Ahhh! Remember it!"

Then, the actors who joined the previous crew that their friends had never contacted began to send congratulatory messages to themselves.

"Brother Jie, congratulations, it looks like your movie is going for 30 billion!"

"The leading actor in the Billion Box Office Club!! Awesome, Brother Jie, when can we have a dinner together? We haven't seen each other for almost a year and a half after the last filming, right?"

"The movie is super good! Brother Jie, your acting skills are incredible! Let's act together when we have time!"

Looking at the constantly ringing mobile phone, Zhao Jie had an indescribably complicated smile on his face.

When you are not popular, you are a dispensable passerby in the eyes of everyone.

But when you become popular, everyone who has a little relationship with you will come over, no matter what, let's take a look at the relationship between the two parties.

At noon on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the cumulative box office of "Crazy Racing" has exceeded 15 billion.

In the spring of this year, none of the other movies released at the same time can beat it.

"Crazy Racing" Hu Douban still got a high score of 20 points after more than 8.3 people rated it.

This is a comedy, and comedy is inherently lower than other types of dramas, and has a lower score on Hu Douban.

On this platform, if the comedy type can score more than 8 points, it can be regarded as excellent quality!
[This movie announces that the era of Qi Yuan in the Chinese film industry has come!I have to say that director Liu Shang's skills in this movie are really good. The switching of various screens and the use of various close-up and mid-range shots can be called textbooks.But the Crazy series can achieve such success, none of us can ignore the most important person-screenwriter Qi Yuan.The scripts of the Crazy series are too well completed. As long as such scripts are given to a director with a professional background, they can make excellent comedies. 】

[What are the advantages and disadvantages of racing cars compared to stones? 1. The director's use of the camera is obviously more mature, and the slow motion of losing the mobile phone and the cycling field looks very impressive. 】

[2. The multi-line narrative of the racing car is more difficult than the stone, and the conflicts of the characters are more complicated.This is one reason why I think racing cars are better than rocks. 】

[3. The editing of the racing car is even more crazy!Shi Shi's editing looks relatively ordinary, which is the standard of a qualified commercial film.As for the racing car, I believe everyone should be able to see it in the cinema. This movie has a lot of shots. I watched some behind-the-scenes interviews with the director. It is said that there are more than 900 shots. The fast switching of the shots gives people a supernatural feeling. Strong sense of rhythm, looks very enjoyable. 】

[Crazy Racing is a very pure commercial comedy film, and the director's degree of completion is very high. I heard that the book written by Qi Yuan has a basic requirement, that is, the director cannot change his play without authorization, unless he agrees. .After watching the whole movie, I think this movie has Qi Yuan's personal style very much. 】

This year's Spring Festival, "Crazy Racing" is like a giant, lying in front of major film and television companies.

According to the current situation, the producers of several movies will lose money!

The box office of the Spring Festival stalls is so big, and "Crazy Racing" is like a terrifying monster that attracts money at the box office, attracting the audience.

At its peak, "Crazy Racing" accounted for more than 65% of the film schedule in a single day!
Such a proportion is terrifying!
This is a very, very rare thing in the Chinese film industry!

There is no way, ordinary audiences just love to watch "Crazy Racing"!
Other film creators, some even appealed to everyone on the Internet, calling on theaters to arrange more films for their own films.

But the market decides everything!
The audience loves to watch "Crazy Racing", can the theater not line up?

Just schedule movies that don't make money alone?

it's out of the question!

Movie theaters are there to make money!

On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the box office of "Crazy Racing" successfully reached the 20 billion box office mark.

On this day, Zhao Jie received a call from Tianhao.

Cai Jun, Tianhao's big manager, personally called Zhao Jie and invited him to join Tianhao.

Zhao Jie didn't sign a contract with an economic company, he always went out with a bag when he went out to film.

In fact, he never thought about the fact that he would become popular, and the matter of the agent was never in his thinking.

But now, this matter has been reflected in reality.

After receiving Cai Jun's call and hearing the conditions offered by the other party, Zhao Jie was silent for a while, but still refused.

In the next few days, Zhao Jie received calls from no less than ten companies, all of whom wanted to sign contracts with him, but he refused all of them.

On the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, the box office of "Crazy Racing" surpassed the first part of the Crazy series, and the box office came to 35 billion.

Zhao Jie received a good weekend call from Yuancheng Film and Television.

"Hello? Zhao Jie?"

"It's me, Brother Zhou."

"Don't, don't, you are older than me, I have to call you brother. I called you today to ask if you are interested in signing a contract with Yuancheng Film and Television. You should know the strength of our company. We... ..."

"I'll join."

"...So decisive. I heard that you have recently rejected invitations from many companies. Here, you don't even think about it? You don't even listen to the conditions?"

"I am very optimistic about Yuancheng Film and Television, or rather, I think our boss, Qi Yuan, is very good!"

Zhao Jie had been waiting for a call from Yuancheng Film and Television for a long time. The reason why he rejected so many companies was because he was optimistic about Yuancheng Film and Television and Qi Yuan.

One is that Yuancheng Film and Television is still in the early stage of development, but it can be seen that Qi Yuan has a good plan for the company.

Moreover, the works produced by the company are all capable and well-known. It is definitely not the kind of company that pours water on its own works in order to make money.

Such a company is a company that really wants to leave something in Huaguo's film and television industry.

Such a company can be regarded as suitable for Zhao Jie's ideal.

If Zhao Jie wanted to make money, he wouldn't have acted in dramas for so many years with a few thousand dollars a month or even nothing.

A phone call, the two hit it off, and Yuancheng Film and Television added another member.

Home.

Qi Yuan considered the situation of the company's artists.

Currently signed artists include Gao Rongxue, Zhao Jie, singer Jiang Qianye and others.

The branches and leaves of this company have been growing well.

"How many people are you going to sign?" Gu Hongli asked while looking at the information in Qi Yuan's computer.

In fact, what she cares about is that it is not easy, and finally there is another male artist.

There are too many girls signed before.

"Enough is enough. Yuancheng Film and Television is my positioning as a production company of film and television drama variety shows. It is good to have a few artists. You can't make a lot of money by drawing artists. And if there are more people who sign, many dramas Whether it fits or not has to be arranged, which is not good for the company's development.

If it works well, I hope it will be like this. Two to three TV dramas and one to two movies will be produced every year. It is best to have one variety show every quarter. "

Gu Hongli nodded, and said, "My studio, do you want to join your company?"

"What's the matter? Do you want to come to my company to be a sister?"

"Hmph, can't you?"

"You have to ask your sister if she is willing. The studio belongs to both of you."

"Well, let me ask her."

The sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

This is the first time Qi Yuan came to the company during the New Year.

First of all, I met the production team of the second season of "Longing for Life", and had a meeting with everyone.

"I would like to emphasize a few points. The core content of this program is slow pace and slow life. The guests we invite must be familiar and likeable by our audience."

In the previous life, "Longing for Life" had been done for many seasons, and the reputation was mixed.

In many episodes with poor quality, it is because a lot of traffic is stuffed in to show their faces, so that the main MC and these so-called guests have nothing to talk about, and there is no spark.

Making the show like a running account led to the loss of some viewers.

In this life, this show is fully controlled by Yuancheng Film and Television. Qi Yuan will naturally not take the detours that he has gone through in his previous life, so he has emphasized the precautions of the show.

Afterwards, Qi Yuan will look over the list of invited guests for this program.

The second thing is to lead a screenwriting team of more than 20 people with Hu Dajing and Ning Yuan, and officially start the early script writing of "Everyone is Escaping".

Details, the rhythm of the program, and the expected actions of the guests, all these plans must be included.

Such an unprecedented fast synthesis, once completed, will be very successful.

After seeing some plans, Qi Yuan no longer participated in it, and he didn't want to understand the details.

Because he had already decided that he would at least participate in the first two episodes of this show, to make a sample for the guests in this show by himself!

With the reference of previous shows, Qi Yuan knows how to play this show.

And such a very novel program like a real game, there will definitely be many guests who can't play it at all, so Qi Yuan needs to go in and bring it along.

The third important thing is the animated movie about the universe of "Feng Shen Bang".

Qi Yuan came to Quanyou and saw the progress of the project.

The progress is very fast. It is estimated that in the Spring Festival of 2023, at the latest in the summer of 2023, the first part of the "Feng Shen Bang" universe will be able to meet the audience.

March.

Gu Hongli's stomach has already bulged a little.

From the first reasoning work after the comeback of the two cats, "Strange House" is already on the market.

In three days, "The House of Secrets" sold 1000 million copies.

The news of the emperor's return in the reasoning world was rumored in various forums.

""Strange House" is so good-looking, is this the strength of the two cat masters, the creator of the original reasoning? I love it!"

"A secret room like a god, a quirky imagination, and a killing technique that makes people orgasm! Two cats, they are indeed two cats!"

"As soon as the two cats come out, is No.1 in the reasoning world still in doubt?"

"Is it too loud? Is "Sherlock Holmes" worse than "The House"?"

The sales of "Strange House" are so good that some media interviewed two cats.

"Hello, what would you like to say about the success of your first work after your comeback?"

Two cats: "That's normal. If my book doesn't sell like this, it's not normal."

Reporter: "Do you think the sales of "The House" will exceed 2000 million copies?"

Two cats: "I don't need to answer this question. After a week, you will be able to see."

"May I ask what you think about the comparison between your work "The House" and Qi Yuan's "Sherlock Holmes" by netizens?"

The two cats grabbed the reporter's microphone, tugged at their mouths, and asked coldly, "Who is Qi Yuan?"
