Entertainment starting from 1 yuan

Chapter 221 Ugly or not?
According to the plan, Han Sheng finished recording the first episode this time, and there is still a while before the recording of the next issue of "Journey of Music and Joy".

The reason? It's nothing more than a schedule issue.

Han Sheng needs to re-shoot a few shots of "Youth in Youth", and the time is good; Deng Ziqi will take a while, because he will continue to be busy with the dispute with his old club Hummingbird Music:

To be honest, if this program hadn't been picked up early, it's hard to say whether she can come and record this time.After all, if the lawsuit doesn't go well, maybe the next time we meet, she won't be called Deng Ziqi.

In other words, her stage name is about to disappear.

This matter is quite sad to say, but fortunately she was successful in the end. For example, Sodagreen can only change her name to Yudingshi to continue her acting work, but she always feels that this familiar name is missing. Many people They will not be able to react at the first time.

So we can see the importance of the stage name to an artist. Those entertainment circles believe that changing their name will make them popular, and it’s okay if they don’t have much popularity.

If there is still such an impression, changing the name will wear away the least memory in the audience's mind.

Not worth the candle.

In short, everyone understands Deng Ziqi's matter very well, and arranged the time early, including Han Sheng, who is not in a hurry.

After the reshoots, nothing happened for the time being.

To be precise, he had originally planned to take on a drama in the near future, but the progress of things was indeed not smooth.To use an exaggerated word, it's a bit "nothing to play for".

It’s true that it’s actually quite difficult to deal with the matter of taking on a movie once your status is high.

As the reporter asked before:
The first movie in the history of the first movie, the second movie in the history of the second movie, and the third movie?

What Han Sheng said at the time was very simple, it was normal.

It is impossible to have such a high-grossing movie all the time. It just happens that the time is right and the right character comes across, so there is such a thing.In the future, if there are not so many suitable roles, or if you run out of gold fingers, you will naturally still have to pick them up normally.

But that being said, the team won't really do that.

The result is that although he has used a lot of notebooks in his hand, he doesn't have many that are particularly suitable and can be turned on immediately.As for taking action to grab other people's resources, it's indeed not uncommon in the circle, but it's not good enough for Han Sheng to grab a role—and to be honest, it's not the first day and the second day to mix up the circle.

The roles that could be robbed, given Han Sheng's current condition, were unlikely to need him to rob them. People must have sent him invitations in advance.Most of the rest are those whose companies favor their own people and cannot be robbed.

In this situation, Han Sheng is not really depressed, but he just cooperates with everyone to do these things.

But in fact, if you really want to say that "the role is not suitable, the movie is not suitable", the best solution is his own Dongsheng culture!If you can't find a suitable role outside, if you do it in your own company, then you will come if you want a suitable role. This is the key.

So after filming the reshoots of "Youth in Youth", he was about to leave.

But there is more than one person interested in this company.

Zhou Dongyu also inquired with great interest, and then said that if there is a suitable notebook to match with him in the future, it would be great, anyway, just keep it for her. The two of them cooperated very happily, and hope there will be a next time.

That's right, after all, it's really good in all aspects. Even the Pingfan, which was a bit controversial with Han Sheng, has now become the meaning of Zhou Dongyu taking advantage of it.

Han Sheng nodded and agreed. As for when the time comes, let's talk about it. In today's entertainment industry, it is too difficult to predict who will overturn, when and what will happen.

On June 6, three days before the recording of the second phase, in Beijing.

It rained quite a lot today, sputtering, and the clouds were densely covered with lightning, which is quite rare.

It seems that there are fewer thunders when it rains in the north. When he fell asleep at night in Chongqing, sometimes he would be startled by thunder when it rained.So the thunder in the capital made it even more rainy.

If you wake up early in such weather and come to the company, then there must be something to do.

Well, at least for Han Sheng.

"Morning Mr. Han!"

As soon as he entered, many employees came and greeted him one after another when they saw him coming.

"Morning, you have worked hard today. There are many things to do. It really means that you have to try your best to come to work on time even in weather like today."

Han Sheng nodded, and then added: "I ordered breakfast and coffee for everyone. You can order whatever else you want. Once you order, it will be recorded in the company's account."

"Thank you Mr. Han!"

Everyone was happy again.

It’s not that it was really bought by such a not-so-big “benefit”, mainly because compared with other companies, Dongsheng Culture really should give it, and give it if it can, such as the extra reimbursement of high-standard three In addition to meals, overtime pay will definitely not be less.

So the atmosphere was very good, and people from "other companies" who came in for the handover were a little envious.

"Mr. Han, good morning, hard work!"

However, when he saw Han Sheng coming over, he immediately calmed down his emotions and hurriedly came over to greet him.

Even though I can't help but still think: There are so many celebrities who have opened companies, but there are still only a few who do it themselves. The key is that not many can do it so well by doing it themselves.
"It's okay, that's right. Director Zhang, please sit here."

Han Sheng directed the other party to sit down, and the two of them first briefly carried out some polite steps, and then began to adjust some details for today

It’s said that Director Zhang Zhang Hai is brilliant, and they came to cooperate with Han Sheng. It’s a long story: During the Spring Festival, when Dongsheng Culture promoted “The Wandering Earth”, they did not follow the regular promotion of Spring Festival movies. Rhythm to promote.

Instead, it paid more attention to the characteristics of the movie itself, and then controlled it within the scope of the audience's interest, and the effect was very good.

Naturally, it has attracted the attention of many companies.

So at the end of last month, a movie came from Guangguang, saying that there was a movie that he wanted him to help distribute.

Han Sheng was a little stunned at the time. Although it is true that they also do distribution, they should discuss these matters with the company first. There is no need to come up and find yourself as the leader, right?He seldom directly manages the details, but mainly controls the overall situation.

Otherwise, he would be too busy just being the boss.

Then the other party said that this movie is a special case, and I hope to directly contact the boss to confirm whether it can continue.

I came here today because of this situation.

"Sorry, I think these are the possible problems. Mr. Han, can you help me and take a look?"

Zhang Hai took the list and talked about these things one by one. After all, the details have already been handed over to the people in the company, and he meant to report the main advantages of Han Sheng, and said: "Anyway, I am really worried, and I am worried that the audience will not accept this. "

I have come here several times because of this adjustment, and I am quite embarrassed.

"It's okay. I understand your concerns. It's good to have such concerns."

However, Han Sheng still didn't look angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "A movie really has to consider the market and whether people can accept it."

This is the same as "The Wandering Earth" back then.

If Han Sheng didn't know the final result, he might not have chosen to be on the Spring Festival stall.After all, the subject matter and genre are indeed not the most suitable ones. Of course, the whole movie itself is fine.

There are certain worrying things about this movie itself.So Zhang Hai also said directly: "Indeed, when we film this, we need to subvert the traditional image, but we do not want to subvert the audience's perception."

"When we did it, we knew that this role was not the traditional good-looking image."

"But you also know that we finalized the draft and used this version because it is more distinctive, and at the same time the whole character fits in well with the plot, and it's also pretty ugly."

"Even you know that everyone is working behind closed doors now, and you don't know what the market says."

As soon as he talked about what he was worried about, Zhang Hai started talking endlessly.After all, the play was set up by the light from the beginning to the end, and it had been laid out for several years. It was only when it came to the hairstyle that Dongsheng Culture joined in. It can be regarded as someone who did it together.

Not many people were interested before.

In other words, the main reason is because of this character image.

"Don't worry, the audience is still very tolerant."

Han Sheng pursed his lips, thought about the status quo of the film and television industry now and in the next few years, and said with a smile: "It's not like you don't know what the current situation of domestic film and television is like, everyone has been tempered for a long time. It's not invading, but it's still tolerant... Maybe there are some elements of helplessness.

But in fact, no matter what, it's still the same truth, as long as you do it seriously and don't have any other purpose, then it will be fine. "

This made Zhang Hai curious:
"What other purpose could there be?"

"Tsk, then you have to see if some people have crooked buttocks."

Han Sheng paused, and said: "Although the protagonist of our movie is a bit ugly, it can be regarded as the character's needs, and the other characters are quite normal and fit."

"It's not like some people who make live-action animations. They have basically concluded that the image is not good, but they still do it. The key is to be harsh. They want the audience to eat soup with shi and praise him at the same time. No Boasting is the audience's fault."

So, I was really disgusted by that X-lion boy movie.

Having experienced so many things, it is impossible not to know that animated characters can be ugly, but they cannot be so ugly that all ugliness are integrated into one.

Then it became a Western stereotype.

I don’t know how much money was spent on public relations, but marketing accounts came out one after another to make it seem like everyone was persecuting him, whitewashing the movie and making it seem like the audience was at fault.In reality?He didn't let me talk about the disgusting things he had done, but he still said something harsh and even called a deer a horse.

Let the audience look in the mirror, don’t the people around them look like this?
Really, if Han Sheng thinks that this film is really not intended to make money, right? The audience will scold the audience even if it is disgusting. It really makes people think that there is some crooked nut involved behind it.
Otherwise, where did he have such a strong tone and face?
"Uh, what you said is." Zhang Hai definitely didn't know this meeting.

Only then did Han Sheng wave his hand: "It's nothing, anyway, don't worry, relatively speaking, our "Magic Boy Comes into the World" is called "Magic Boy", and this kind of ugly point is not a problem."

Yes, that's right, Dongsheng Culture is going to participate in the hairstyle of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World".

Han Sheng is also determined that if there is a chance, he will never let go of this kind of good opportunity to gain qualifications and make money.If you can cooperate, you must be willing to publish.

The main reason is that "Nezha" didn't plan to find Han Sheng at first.

Because this film was hatched and released by Guangguang itself. After so many years, from 15 years to 19 years, more than four years, it is finally ready to be produced. In the end, it is naturally unwilling for others to pick the fruit.

But the key question came out, this Nezha is different from the traditional role:
heroic.

Kind and lovely.

He's not even the kind of character image that everyone generally remembers, it's quite subversive.But in fact, according to the myths and legends, Nezha may actually be more so
It’s just that artistic creation also requires artistic processing. Some things are just not suitable for shooting and enlarging the screen.

It is precisely because of this problem that they finally began to seek cooperation.

It can be regarded as sharing the risk.

Is the result good? I searched and searched and couldn't find anyone to cooperate with, because everyone has also seen this problem and thinks it is not optimistic.And this point is coming soon, you must find someone to cooperate with the announcement, you must also feel a little problem, right?
And animated movies.

This movie, the previous highest-grossing "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage" was 9.56 million, which is already considered a ceiling, so how high can it be?
What's more, this movie doesn't look as good as "The Great Sage".

This is true, and Han Sheng also agrees with this point of view.

At least from his personal point of view, Nezha still has a lot of room for improvement in terms of plot, but fortunately, the theme is clear, the characters are interesting, and the story line is also familiar to everyone overall, so there is no problem.

But others don't know.

When evaluating animated films, you can't look at the stars, and you can't look at the investment.
Uh, what he meant was that the investment in the movie "Nezha" is really not too much.Because the investment spent on the production of this movie is 6000 million, which is not a lot of money compared to too many movies now.

And there have been rumors from the outside world:

In order to save money, the director does a lot of work himself, and it seems that the money has not been spent in the end
Therefore, investing 6000 million yuan in the film, the publicity and distribution side has invested tens of millions of dollars in it, which obviously makes many companies feel that it is not worth it.But apart from this point of lack of self-confidence, Guangguang himself still feels good, so in the end, after thinking about it, he thought of Dongsheng Culture, which was established not long ago.

Even after this company released "Wolf Warrior 2" and hired many people, it was not particularly popular in the industry.

After all, everyone knows that the play is just a learning experience.

It didn't change until the main release of "The Wandering Earth" this year.

Another reason why Guangguang chose Dongsheng Culture is that as mentioned earlier, "The Wandering Earth", a film that does not conform to the traditional film genre of the Spring Festival, can be operated until the end to get so much.

Then Nezha's character image is a bit ugly. Dongsheng Culture is doing this, so it's not a big problem, right?

So after talking, they agreed.

Even when it comes to sharing, the other party is still following the same routine as before - we at Dongsheng Culture pay attention to a guaranteed distribution for promising movies. This is one of our strategies for making movies.

Guangguang was definitely reluctant, but in the end, seeing that Dongsheng Culture was really insisting, it was fine to just say it.

But the light still kept an eye on it:

Anyway, if I guarantee the bottom line myself, it's left-handed and right-handed.

So, before the highest box office was 10 billion, right?Hey, then I will let you issue a guaranteed minimum of 10 billion, no matter how courageous you are, it will be difficult to make a decision, right?Even if it's settled, there's no time to talk about it, anyway, I must have made a lot of money.

As a result, Dongsheng Culture agreed quickly.

I also don’t understand it a bit.

In the office, things were a bit similar, so Zhang Hai stood up and said goodbye.He came here mainly as a formality, and the company still has a lot of things to do, so he will leave soon.

"Okay, then I'll be fine today, I'll go back to Boss Han first." Zhang Hai said.

"Okay, I'll see you off."

Han Sheng picked up his phone and looked at it for a while, then stood up too.

When talking about work, he is a normal boss, and all kinds of human etiquette must be in place. Of course, smoking and drinking, which affect other professional identities, are not discussed, but it is also good to send someone out when you are not busy.What's more.
"It's all right, Boss Han can do it himself!"

Zhang Hai waved his hands again and again.

Han Sheng didn't stop, "It's okay, I'll take you a few steps and I'll turn around to see what's going on with Sister Xixi."

Zhang Hai's sensitivity as a practitioner and his many experiences in this company immediately caught the different signal in the sentence just now: "Mr. Han, are you about to start filming a new movie?"

Han Sheng is very strange this year. Originally, "Legend of Sword and Sword 3" was delayed, and it was not particularly convenient for him to take on the show in the second half of the year. It stands to reason that he should be crazy to take on the show in 20 years, but he didn't have anything.

This is weird, is it possible that you are just waiting for this?

"Well, sort of, but this year's start-up is not enough."

Han Sheng smiled, but also thought about it for a while. Once this kind of news is released, it will not be a secret soon, and said: "But when people talked about this last time, I just treated him politely."
