I'm a big star after the funeral

Chapter 147 Chapter 142

Chapter 147 Chapter 140
The "Matrix" series was born that year, which is amazing.

Of course, the latter two are indeed like what Yang Taihe said, a bit of a continuation.

It's not that it's bad, but with the pearls and jade in the first part, the second two parts are getting more and more engrossing, like a riddleman, which makes people uncomfortable to watch.

Li Chenghao hasn't watched the fourth part that is coming out now, but judging from Hollywood's usual urine, it's basically selling his feelings.

In fact, it can also be seen from the current situation of the main creator. It is better that the male lead has just become famous. The pair of director brothers... no, sister and brother... and no, the resumes of the sisters in recent years are simply unsightly.

Cloud Atlas, which is more incomprehensible than the last two films of "The Matrix", made the audience look confused, and naturally it did not get a high box office.

Although this movie has become a powerful tool for many people, and there are indeed some things, but the subsequent "Jupiter Ascending" announced that the siblings are really out of stock, not because everyone thinks too avant-garde so they can't understand .

So much so that they can only direct TV series, although the effect seems to be good, which also makes their return on this project possible.

But as a series that ended nearly 20 years ago, it comes out at this time, and it’s not a remake but a sequel. The director who couldn’t come up with more things in the trilogy, what is better? Express?

If you want to say that it is in line with the new ideas of the times, wouldn't it be better to switch to other new works, at least it can maintain the reputation of that series.

Therefore, the suspicion of selling sentiments and making a fool of yourself cannot go away, and you may even dig out the first three movies and cut a wave of leeks. After all, Hollywood's peripheral industries are doing very well, and a considerable part of the profits of film and television entertainment are in peripherals.

It's like Star Wars, why one after another is released, let alone the dream of building a world, even the "Father of Star Wars" Lucas is essentially just a businessman.

After all, in terms of selling feelings, Hollywood is the ancestor of the Chinese film industry.

In fact, many people feel that there are fewer and fewer good domestic entertainment works, such as movies, TV shows, and music variety shows. In fact, the whole world is the same.

There are many factors, but the development of Internet media, the improvement of the public's horizons, and the diversification of entertainment methods should be the main reasons.

Many times you have to say that "the masters are among the people" is really not an empty saying. Perhaps the top professionals in a certain industry are only a handful of people.

The true meaning of the so-called folk masters is to make some of the methods that the so-called masters deal with at will and make them popular, so that everyone feels that "I can do it myself".

Of course, it doesn't mean that it's enough to go to the real world, but at least it can make some people no longer be able to fool others at will.

Of course, diversity is not a bad thing, but it is also difficult for people with insufficient judgment to receive too much information and cannot process it.

Fortunately, for most people, they basically just read the news, which will not have any impact on their daily life, otherwise the world really doesn't know what kind of chaos it would be.

Getting back to the topic, the script Li Chenghao is currently holding is actually more like a localization of "The Matrix".

Of course, it is different from the "Sinicized Apartment" in that it is only creative and modeled on the matrix and Zion model in "The Matrix", but in terms of the overall structure, it uses a method that is biased towards web texts.

Li Chenghao even wondered if this guy came from writing web articles.

It's not surprising that there are quite a few leading web writers now devoted themselves to screenwriting. This also fully demonstrates the chaos and shapelessness in the screenwriting circle.

Screenwriting itself is also a job with no threshold. Basically, anyone who can speak and write in the nine-year compulsory education can do it. Of course, how well you do it is another matter.

Hey, who said that the status of screenwriters is low these days, most of the time they are still the ones who take the blame, and the audience can't help but think "I can do it if I do it" when watching those stupid plots.

Li Chenghao actually thinks that if he finds a web adaptation, it might be more interesting than this story.

But from another point of view, the current web articles are sometimes too "advanced". When the shooting technology, ideas and special effects can't keep up, we can only settle for the next best thing and find this simple mode. .

"So, you decided to invest in this book?"

Li Chenghao pondered for a while, then shook his head and said: "Calculate the cost first, if it doesn't exceed ten million, I think you can try it."

Yang Taihe smiled wryly, and said, "If it's the Chinese version of 'The Matrix', do you think it's worth tens of millions of dollars?"

Li Chenghao laughed and explained: "This is a metaphor, do you understand the metaphor? Uncle Taihe, don't be blindfolded by this. In fact, if this book is really well planned, the investment really doesn't need to be too much, unless you plan to spend a lot of money It's even more unnecessary to spend on actors, isn't it?"

Yang Taihe was astonished, so he simply took the script and flipped through it a little.

After all, he has been working as an agent for so many years, so he should understand these things. After roughly reading the descriptions in the script, and then recalculating in his heart, he will have a rough spectrum.

"It seems that you did not learn in vain from Lao Wang's side before?"

What Yang Taihe said was naturally that after reading the script, Li Chenghao was able to estimate the production cost of the film like an old fritter like him, and the estimate was very close.

After all, this is a TV series, which is different from movies, and it is even more different from the big A-level Hollywood productions. Let alone the special effects scenes, there will definitely not be so many scenes, and they certainly don't need to be so detailed.

If it is said that people are one yuan for special effects, this is "a dime" which is actually enough.

To put it bluntly, special effects, the special effects that looked fake in the early years, everyone can still enjoy watching them with gusto.

On the contrary, the special effects have improved over the years, but the attractiveness of the drama has dropped sharply.

On the one hand, the performance of the actors, especially the fact that anyone can afford to be an actor, makes this aspect greatly discounted.

On the other hand, there are bad movies with various models and routines, all kinds of so-called high-end aesthetics imposed by capital on the audience.

After watching it, people feel that their IQ is completely insulted, so many people simply don't watch it.

The game is not good, or the novel is not good, or the girlfriend is not close?

Of course, if necessary, additional investment in special effects can be made.

After all, if it is a so-called sci-fi movie, if it turns out that there are not many special effects scenes, and it is all real martial arts action, you can't just explain to others that it is "realistic hard sci-fi".

Anyway, there is no such thing as a precise budget, otherwise there would not be so many popular directors who can spend all the budget on the tip of the knife and even save a fortune.

"Then let them plan it first, and then talk about it if it's confirmed. But if it's confirmed, will you play it?"

In fact, the previous meeting said that one of the main purposes of paying attention to the script was to help Li Chenghao pay attention.

For example, Zhang Wei and Bai Yu are not short of film contracts, and they also have the freedom to choose. In fact, the company generally does not force them to arrange them.

On their part, this agency contract is more like looking for a manager, because the two actually don't have many activities outside of filming, and the commission for filming is actually very low, and the company can't make much money from them. Money, on the contrary, is used as a signboard.

Of course, if the company shoots a "team building" TV show, they can also get cheap participation in the show, which is also a benefit.
The next thing is the Weiya Banquet. Although Shanfeng Entertainment is not a giant, it has been developing smoothly in the past few years and its scale has been expanding.

In addition to these well-known representative artists, there are actually many second- and third-tier artists. This is the first time Li Chenghao knows that there are so many people in the company.

Because it was the last gathering before the year, and the Chinese New Year will be coming soon, which is actually equivalent to a New Year's Eve party.

"Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year……"

This is also a rare time when the artists of the company get together. Li Chenghao has met many people before, so naturally he will not feel strange now.

Especially people like Zuer, who can be regarded as friends.

However, she seemed to be unusually sensitive about certain aspects. She took advantage of the gap between Li Chenghao and Su Xiaojing to sit down after talking on the phone, and then she leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Have you got a girlfriend yet?"

Li Chenghao was also very surprised, this girl has such a keen insight.

Naturally, he would not admit it, but just put it off. Zuer seemed to be in disbelief, but he didn't continue to ask.

But then she seemed to be in a low mood, and she didn't talk much, but poured herself wine one after another.

It wasn't until the assistant realized something was wrong and stopped her and dragged her aside to talk, and then came back to feel better.

It's not that Li Chenghao doesn't understand anything, and he knows in his heart that this may have something to do with him.

But to be honest, he hadn't figured out what was going on at all.

Is Zuer really treating herself...

In fact, after getting a little familiar with her, Li Chenghao felt that her personality was okay.

Although he loves to play a little bit, and sometimes he may be a bit coquettish and coquettish, but overall he is a good friend.

But being a girlfriend is still different, Su Xiaojing is very good, their personalities are very compatible, at least it is not easy to have conflicts.

As the boss, but also a "backward" of the company, Li Chenghao doesn't mind having two more drinks with everyone.

Anyway, when the situation is special, first say hello to Yang Taihe and let them get ready, even if they are really drunk at that time, it doesn't matter.

In this circle, entertainment is also a very important trait.

Li Chenghao would not say that everyone should like him, which is impossible and unrealistic, but he still hopes that he can maintain a good image and establish a harmonious relationship with everyone.

Anyway, now that Yang Taihe is here, he doesn't need to be a bad face, he can just sing a bad face.

Of course, at the end of the year banquet, the lucky draw is indispensable, which can be regarded as an employee benefit.

In fact, for some "employees", that kind of reward is simply not worth it.

But people have a herd mentality. In this kind of occasion and in this kind of atmosphere, if you can win the big prize, it will feel like a very honorable and refreshing thing. What you want is this kind of psychological sense of accomplishment.

Of course Li Chenghao also participated, but unfortunately his luck was not very good, and there were only consolation prizes.

The one who really won the award was an ordinary employee of the marketing department. Li Chenghao had reason to suspect that this was also a secret operation. It was not intentional for him to win the award, but to deliberately prevent some people from winning the award.

As for the ordinary employees, it's random to see who gets lucky.

After all, compared to the artists, the employees of the company also belong to the kind that may work harder but gain much less.

Although it is said that there is a specialization in the art industry, sometimes it is inevitable to feel unbalanced. At this time, it is natural to find a balance.

Artists probably also know this in their hearts, and they didn't have any hope at first.

However, Zuer actually won a third prize, which was an unexpected pleasure. Unfortunately, she herself seemed not to be very interested.

However, Li Chenghao felt a little baffled. It wouldn't be like this just because he had a girlfriend. Did something happen to her?

But he didn't have anyone to ask, Yang Taihe wouldn't tell him about this, so he could only be bored in his heart.

When the banquet finally ended and everyone dispersed, Li Yong returned to another residence in the capital.

In fact, this banquet was also paid attention to, not to mention that there were reporters outside the company, everyone who participated had their own social media, and would post some news from time to time.

So of course it is impossible for Li Chenghao to run to Su Xiaojing's place at this time in order to risk the world's dissatisfaction.

Of course, I had to call her first to "report" when I came back, although she said proudly that she was going to sleep and was woken up by him.

Li Chenghao smiled and didn't take it seriously.

Although girls say no to it in most cases, they really don't want it-especially when doing that kind of thing, unless it is clear that it is flirting, otherwise don't force it at will, but there are times when this kind of duplicity is true.

Not to mention between lovers, some friends, parents and children also have this kind of situation where they clearly want it but say they don't want it. Whoever takes it seriously is stupid.

"Do you want me to comfort you?" Then when Li Chenghao said that he only got a consolation prize, even though Su Xiaojing asked this, he still couldn't hold back his gloating laughter.

Li Chenghao said angrily: "Your company also has a lottery, what about you?"

"I won the second prize! A little bit..."

Li Chenghao had nothing to say, but then laughed again.

Su Xiaojing on the opposite side also laughed, and asked with a smile, "What are you laughing at?"

"Then why are you laughing?"

"I saw you laughing and I laughed along with you..."

"Then I only laughed when I saw you happy." I don't know if it's the sublimation of intimacy, but now Li Chenghao comes here with sweet words: "Because you are happy, I will be very happy too."

"What, what a mess..."

"Yes, earthy love story, do you like it?"

"do not like!"

"Really don't like it?"

"I really don't like..."

"Then I won't talk about it later!"

"no!"

"Didn't you say you didn't like it?"

"If you don't tell me, how do you know if I like it or not?"

Li Chenghao shook his head and suddenly heard the warning sound of his mobile phone. He said helplessly: "Wait a minute, the phone is out of battery. I'll charge it first..."
