Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

Chapter 36 Source Code

Just when Qu Li was recording the show, the box office of "Stone" exceeded 1500 million in the first three days and 3000 million in the second week. After that, a high-definition version appeared online, and the box office plummeted very seriously.However, it is certain that the final box office will exceed [-] million. Ning Hao became famous in one fell swoop and was hailed as a genius director by the media.

At this point, they finally came up with the first Bad Monkeys movie, which was Comet.

"The sci-fi suspense movie "Comet" shot by Qu Li?" Wang Zhongjun was also puzzled when he first heard about it, but thinking about Qu Li's fame, he quickly came up with an idea. Then he watched the movie and was shocked again.It is said that Qu Li has been shocking people during this period.

"This is a qualified movie, but science fiction movies have always been popular among the public with big scenes and special effects. "Comet" has none of it, so it is not easy to sell."

"My idea is to link up internally and externally. Silicon Valley will find a small and medium-sized film company with distribution capabilities, such as Lionsgate Pictures. If that doesn't work, then first participate in the Sundance Film Festival. This film will fit their temperament and may pass the operation. Win the award.”

"Have you thought it through?"

"After all, I have a lot of friends, but Director Ning Hao doesn't have that much ambition at the moment. He just wants to make movies. He is already planning the next project and is planning to invite Liu Dehua to play the leading role."

"Is it the "Lucky Key"?"

"Well, it's also a comedy movie, but the cost may be very high."

"With Liu Dehua starring, the cost will naturally not be low."

"Director Ning wants to see how much money "Comet" can make, and then invest all of it in the "Lucky Key" project, which can share the risks of investors."

Qu Li's idea is very simple, that is, to bind the two projects "Comet" and "Lucky Key". If it doesn't work, he may change people. I believe China Film will not let him down.Domestic directors have been declining, and Han Sanpin has invited Ning Hao to meet him, so he must have some thoughts about him.

"I think this movie can be released overseas and domestically at the same time. You are currently very popular, so you can save a lot of promotional expenses. After the news is announced, it may even increase the box office of "The Stone"..."

"When can it be released at the earliest?"

"August is too fast. There is "The Night Banquet" in September, "Baby Project" in October, and "Golden Armor" in December. This year it is only November."

November is really not a good month, but there is no soft persimmon in other months.

"Maybe it's August. The influence of "Stone" and me has not faded. Mr. Han has approached Ning Hao, and China Film may be able to help."

"There's no need to go to China Film for this trivial matter." Wang Zhongjun compromised decisively.

"The publicity cost is at least 50 yuan. The main selling points are science fiction, suspense, brain-burning, thriller, and human nature. Then someone needs to interpret the details of the movie online."

"No problem!" Wang Zhongjun agreed.

With the "Lucky Key" hanging around, I guess there won't be too many tricks. Qu Li Ninghao has just entered the industry and does not have a wide network of contacts, so it is difficult to play an effective supervisory role.

After the matter is settled, it will naturally be hello, me, hello, everyone. The celebration banquet is still nearly half a month away, and Qu Li is not going to attend. Seeing that the venture capital is interested in him, he has to prepare for it no matter what.

Before leaving, I met with Ning Hao and explained the release of "Comet".

"We don't have time for management, so why don't we find a helper, a classmate or friend? As long as this person is good at learning, everything else is not a problem. Now we have laid a good foundation, and with you in film creation, we can also cultivate a team of screenwriters." In two years, when the company is short of money for development, I will find a way. There are many rich people in Guangdong Province."

"But it's hard to find a suitable candidate in such a short period of time."

"Anyway, if you want someone you can trust, it's best to have ideals but not be rigid, and know how to bend down. If you don't do these things, I won't do them. Someone has to do it."

"By the way, Liu Dehua wants to see you. Do you have time?"

"He is just curious about me. Forget it, I didn't deserve to chase stars before. I don't have time to chase stars now. There may be no need to chase stars in the future."

"Then I'll push it for you!"

"If you push it, push it, it doesn't matter."

"Liu Dehua watched "The Lucky Key" and he agreed to play the leading role. He thought you were an interesting screenwriter and wanted to get to know you. He didn't want to get to know you because he read the news scolding you on the Internet..."

"..." Qu Li was embarrassed

"By the way, after filming "The Lucky Key", do you want to make a film with depth or do you want to go a step further in commercial films?"

"I don't know, I don't have any ideas right now."

"Oh, that's fine."

"What, you have a new idea?"

Of course there are new ideas, but unfortunately many movies are not suitable for his age, such as Fireworks in the Day, Donkey Gets Water, etc. He cannot write at his age, and he does not have that kind of depth of thought, so it is easy for people to notice that something is wrong.

"I wanted to make a science fiction film, but I didn't have the time."

"A science fiction film, or one with a lot of imagination and few special effects?"

"No, I want to make a quasi-blockbuster movie."

"You think too much……"

"So, you know."

"What do you think? Tell me."

"Okay, you can find someone to perfect the script." Qu Li told the story of "Source Code" without any delay.

"A terrorist attack occurred on a train in a certain area of ​​the country, causing heavy casualties. The terrorist organization has announced that it will launch a second attack soon, leaving officials little time.

So the military handed over the task of preventing terrorist attacks to a very high-security project. Using special scientific instruments, people can travel back to 8 minutes before another person's death. This can be decided by yourself depending on the plot arrangement.

However, this technology is not yet mature, and those who participated in the experiment may not come back. A soldier who was facing retirement due to amputation for participating in flood fighting and rescue operations resolutely accepted this task.Time and time again, he travels to the 8 minutes before the victim's death, and faces death again and again.

Finally, with his excellent skills, he saved the terrorist attack that had already occurred, discovered other terrorists, and completed the mission.But this outstanding soldier did not want to retire, nor did he want to live as a disabled person without dignity for the rest of his life, so he begged the female scientist or soldier in charge of the experiment to let him say goodbye to the heroine.

In the end, he saved another terrorist attack, but 8 minutes later, the world did not disappear, but miraculously continued. The protagonist sent an email to the female scientist: You thought you created the past of 8 minutes, but it was more than that. , you have created a new world. "

"I fuck you, you have such a genius brain, don't start a business, let's make a movie together, the money is your bastard, as long as it's enough..." Ning Ritian was shocked by Qu Li's explosive idea, and grabbed Qu Li's hand. Li shook his head vigorously, this is really science fiction, it is really a big production, and it is a hardcore science fiction blockbuster that can be produced with the current domestic technical level.
