"This number should be nothing." Ning Yuan sighed and said, "I don't know when I will be able to direct a blockbuster movie with an investment of over [-] million."

Wansheng Film and Television is backed by Wansheng Group.

But now the real estate is gradually sluggish, but the entertainment industry is getting more and more popular.

It is also well known that Wansheng Group has invested heavily in film and television.

"Then you have to work hard." Zhang Yu said, "If you help me earn a few billion, let alone directing a blockbuster movie that exceeds [-] million, blockbuster movies that exceed [-] billion will not be a problem."

When Ning Yuan heard this, he immediately rolled his eyes.

Movies earn billions?

How much is the cumulative box office?

Definitely far more than tens of billions.

Today in China, Zhang Hang, who has the highest cumulative box office, is only a few billion.

Does he lack investment?

There is never a shortage of Zhang Hang, even if the investment exceeds one billion, it may not be impossible to get it.

It is nothing more than a few film and television companies participating in the investment.

Of course, this is just Ning Yuan's guess.

After all, the highest box office of Chinese-language movies today is only 20 billion.

With an investment of one billion, if the record is not broken, then overseas markets must perform.

And it's not impossible.

Chinese-language movies may not have many high-grossing movies in North America, but they are still very good in other parts of Asia.

"If this film is successful, if you want to attract more than [-] million investment, it will not be easy?" Zhang Yu said lightly.

Don't talk about it, this movie is a success, and Ning Yuan's investment in the next movie is over [-] million, and Zhang Yu probably won't refuse.

"If it's successful just by recovering the cost, then I still have some confidence." Ning Yuan said, "But if it exceeds the box office of "Buried Alive", then I really don't have much confidence."

What counts as success?

Obviously the latter.

Zhang Yu undoubtedly thought so too.

Even if the investment in "Crazy Stone" is not as good as "Buried Alive".

Surpassing "Buried Alive", Ning Yuan's box office appeal will definitely increase.

If screenwriter Zhang Yu is added, it may be a "golden signature".

"Are you confident?"

Ning Yuan immediately asked another question.

Zhang Yu smiled, but did not answer.

He is not confident either.

"Buried Alive" has a box office of nearly [-] million!

"Crazy Stone" wants to break [-] million?

Zhang Yu really didn't know.

The original investment was several million, and the box office was tens of millions.

But it is obviously impossible to apply this ratio of investment to box office.

Even if it is used, it cannot surpass the box office of "Buried Alive".

This time, the investment in "Crazy Stone" is only 3000 million.

Actors are not well paid.

Back to the original, Zhang Yu is still very confident.

The original box office obviously has no reference value.

After all, markets are different.

But it's really hard to say if you want to surpass "Buried Alive".

"If this movie does not lose money, we will make another movie and release it during the Spring Festival." Zhang Yu continued.

"Then you prepare the script." Ning Yuan said with a smile.

He filmed two scripts by Zhang Yu, and he still has great trust in Zhang Yu's screenwriting talent.

Zhang Yu nodded.

He has learned that there is no Guy Ritchie in this world, and there is no movie like "Two Bars and Smoking Barrels".

Therefore, "Crazy Stone" can be regarded as the first of its kind.

Zhang Yu is not confident whether he can break the box office of "Buried Alive".

However, I think the box office will not be bad.

Zhang Yu didn't stay in the crew for a few days, and then returned to Zhong Hai.

There are many film and television cities in China, the two largest ones are near Yanjing and the other is near Zhonghai.

And the filming location of "The Great Sage" is close to the film and television city in Zhonghai.

The launch conference of the first blockbuster film led by Wansheng Film and Television still attracted many media reporters.

Zhang Yu came to the scene early, and there was still a while before the press conference.

"Director Jiang!"

Zhang Yu greeted with a smile.

Jiang Chengbin, as a leading director in the industry, Zhang Yu naturally knew.

Even did some research before.

Jiang Chengbin is not very old, just over 40.

It can be regarded as the young and strong group of directors.

Among the first-line directors, it is estimated that there are not two under the age of 50.

Top directors like Zhang Hang and Xu Sen are basically in their early sixties.

"Thirteen is here!"

Jiang Chengbin responded with a smile.

Even if Wang Mei came forward, Jiang Chengbin never thought that Zhang Yu would take such a role in several scenes.

After all, "Buried Alive" has shown his acting skills and box office appeal.

He can totally handle a blockbuster.

It's just a pity that the male lead of this movie is decided by default, otherwise he really wouldn't mind looking for Zhang Yu.

He is popular and knows kung fu.

Starring Monkey King is full of gimmicks.

"Brother Jack!"

"Brother Jack!"

Just as Jiang Chengbin was about to say something, he saw Cheng Jie coming, and immediately greeted him.

Zhang Yu naturally followed suit.

He and Cheng Jie knew each other naturally.

It was only after Zhang Yu accepted the role of Erlang Shen that Cheng Jie was the leading actor in this movie.

He obviously didn't expect Cheng Jie to take such a role.

He plays Monkey King?

However, the imagination does not seem to be too surprising.

Cheng Jie is gradually transforming, and after several attempts, the results are not satisfactory, or even very bad.

He plays the role of Monkey King, and there are not many scenes showing his true colors.

This role may have a lot of fight scenes, but most of them need to add special effects.

Movement difficulty is limited.

With Cheng Jie's skill, even if he gets older, it's nothing.

Of course, the most important thing is that this role is a test of acting skills.

If the acting skills are recognized, then fans will gradually turn Cheng Jie's drama to literary drama.

It may not be in place in one step, but it is definitely a good start.

Cheng Jie's film style is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is obviously not easy to break it.

This is also one of the reasons why his previous attempts failed.

But if Sun Wukong plays well, it is likely to open up a gap in fans' impression of him.

Sun Wukong is a household name.

It is undoubtedly an excellent way to use such a role to break fans' old impression of actors.

Of course, this is just Zhang Yu's personal guess.

Perhaps Cheng Jie also intends to cooperate with Wansheng Film and Television, which holds the largest theater chain in China.

His Yaowen Film and Television is also one of the investors in this movie.

"Director Jiang!" Cheng Jie greeted with a smile, then looked at Zhang Yu and said, "Thirteen is here too! Your album is very good, especially the Cantonese version of "A Man Should Be Self-Reliant". My favorite."

"It's ridiculous." Zhang Yu said with a smile.

"You, when did you become so humble." Cheng Jie said with a smile, "Where did your confidence that 'your appearance illuminates the entire entertainment circle' go?"

When Zhang Yu heard this, he was immediately embarrassed.

However, he has always been thick-skinned.

"Brother Jie, the quality of a song has nothing to do with my appearance." Zhang Yu said with a smile, "You should be praising my talent, not my appearance."

"Haven't your fans made you realize the reality?" Cheng Jie laughed when he heard it.

Zhang Yu couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth.

Those fans... are not sons of man.

Jiang Chengbin obviously didn't know about this, but looked at Cheng Jie curiously.

Seeing this, Cheng Jie smiled and explained why.

Jiang Chengbin also smiled when he heard it, but looked at Zhang Yu with surprise in his eyes.

Zhang Yu's popularity seems to be higher than he expected!

The more popular Zhang Yu is, the more fans he has, and the greater the benefit to the movie.

"You are not as handsome as my son!" Cheng Jie said with a smile.

Cheng Ming is also on the list, and the ranking is still high.

"Brother Jie, if you use that beauty list as an example, there are only two people in the entire entertainment industry who are more handsome than Yuan Xiang." Zhang Yu shook his head and said.

When Cheng Jie heard it, he was speechless.

"You fans!" Cheng Jie said.

He is also on the list, even higher than his son.

The reason for this is obviously not because of his appearance, but because of his popularity.

That list is just for fun.

Many people in the circle joked about the list.
