Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

Chapter 37 Science Fiction Short Story

Although Qu Li has opened a lot of tricks, he still has the feeling that time is not waiting for us. He wants too much and has no way to divide himself. How great would it be if there was a way to divide himself? The self-study exam in July is coming again. I should be able to pass two or three exams this time and strive to graduate next year.

Qu Li, who returned to Yangcheng, was busy again. His role as Mike in "Stone" left a deep impression on people because of his many sultry words.Surprisingly, fewer people scolded him. It is still very enviable to be a person like him.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Huayi released information about the release of "Comet" in August, and said that it was produced by Ning Ritian and directed by Qu Li. The original cast of "The Stone" and Sun Honglei joined for free. Many explosive news .

Unsurprisingly, the firepower focused on Qu Li. If they were envious before, many people now feel hatred.

"What's wrong with this era? Can anyone make a movie? A science fiction movie?"

"It's so shameless. Does he know what storyboarding is?"

"Don't think that you can become a director just by being an actor..."

There is no doubt that Qu Li once again made the headlines like a clown. Many people were laughing at him for overestimating his capabilities. Some even called on netizens to boycott him. It seemed that Qu Li was a heinous bastard.

"Someone from above asked about it. I took "Comet" to China Film Studio."

"Third Master is very satisfied with the movie. He will speak for you."

After passing the self-study exam, good news and bad news kept coming to his ears. Qu Li did not expect that netizens would have such a big reaction. He must have taken the route of competing for awards and going to the Sundance Film Festival. How could he not There can be a consolation prize.

"Then what can I do?"

"There's no need to do anything. It's best to stay silent and wait for this wave to pass."

"But isn't "Comet" scheduled to be released?"

"You can withdraw it, or don't promote it..."

"no……"

"There is no better way now."

"Let me think about it..." Qu Li really didn't want the movie "Comet" to be thrown into the dust because of him.

"I'll make another science fiction short story."

"what?"

"Don't worry, it won't cost much."

"Do you have an idea now?"

"It's just a rough idea that's not yet complete." It's only been a few minutes, how can it be so fast?

Hang up the phone, empty your mind, and recall the sci-fi short stories that you have read before. The three-body series like Shuidi, which relies on Da Liu, is obviously not good. It also has low cost and short production cycle, so you can only rely on concepts and imagination to win. .

Several people who originally wanted to come over to discuss investment also stopped. Qu Li might be counterattacked by his radical propaganda, and he never thought that he really had "the ability".

""Room 8", this is a science fiction short story that Qu Li is planning to shoot. It is very interesting." Ning Hao once again approached Mr. Han. Only by proving his ability can he get help from others. Qu Li came up with this idea, which is part of his ability.

A somewhat unruly prisoner entered a cell and saw an old man reading a book on his back. There were two beds in the room, and there was a large box on one of the beds.

The man who just came in was a little curious and asked the old man what it was. The old man warned him that it was best not to touch the box.The prisoner refused to listen and opened the box, only to find that the inside was exactly the same as in Cell No. 8. He was also surprised to find that the roof above his head had also been opened, in the same movement as he had opened the box.

The criminal discovered this situation and asked the old man to help him open the box without any hesitation. The old man tried to persuade him but refused to listen. The old man did as he was told. The criminal climbed over the roof and instead of escaping, he entered the box on the bed.

The old man packed the prisoner with a matchbox, returned to his desk, opened the drawer and threw it in. There were already many beating matchboxes inside.Then, the old man said coldly: Next.

"No. 8 represents the endless cycle, the cell represents the dilemma of life, and the old man represents the opportunity to choose. The prisoner has many opportunities, but he chose the worst one..." Ning Hao interpreted the script. Mr. Han originally He is a director, so he naturally knows the goods.

“It’s amazing that he came up with this idea in such a short time.”

"Not only that, he has also prepared a script for another science fiction blockbuster. If "Lucky Key" can be successful, we will start this project."

"Oh, can you tell me?"

"There's nothing I can't say. I still need help from China Film Group Corporation, but he only talked about creativity and didn't have time to write a script..."

"Then you can say as much as you can."

"Okay, here's the story..."

Half an hour later, Master Han said: "Don't wait for "Lucky Key" to end, start it now."

"Ah! We're not ready yet."

"The filming of a science fiction movie takes a long time. We need soldiers and bombing trains. The preparation time will not be short. By the time you finish filming "Lucky Key", maybe it won't be ready yet." Mr. Han was afraid of Ning. Hao has no experience

"That's it. Then I'll go back and discuss it."

"If there is a problem with Huayi, China Film will take over the "Comet" project. Did Qu Li have any difficulties filming "Room 8"?"

"Oh, he is not familiar with the Yangcheng film and television industry. He has to think of ways to hire people and equipment."

"I helped him contact Zhujiang Film Studio. They have someone."

"I'll help Qu Li thank Mr. Han."

"You are all talented people with different areas of expertise. Let's work hard together. We will need you in future Chinese films."

Qu Li got help from Han Sanye and contacted Zhujiang Film Studio, a bankrupt company. Unfortunately, he only knew digital photography and had to find other photoelectric units. The film and television industry in Yangcheng was really bad, lacking talents and technology.

"You help me prepare the location and actors, and I'll fly to Yanjing and start filming." Qu Li gave up after two days of communication with the people from Zhu Jiang Films. His half-heartedness didn't fit with their aura.

"OK then."

"If Huayi doesn't pay for this short story, I will pay for it myself. If they pay for it, I will make two short stories." Qu Li continued

"Is it a hurry to make two movies?"

"They are all very simple. The second part is "Landing on Mars", which tells the story of an astronaut who landed on the surface of Mars. When he looked at the earth, he seemed to be able to hold the earth in his hands, so the astronaut reported to the people at the ground base. , the base asked him to take back this earth-like bead. After hesitating for a while, the astronaut really took the bead in his hand.

Earthquakes suddenly occurred, volcanoes erupted, waves hit coastal cities, and the contact with the people at the space base became intermittent. Until he couldn't control the sea-blue bead and fell to the ground, everything came to an abrupt end..."

Qu Li is actually talking about "Landing on Planet Alpha 46", which won the Best Short Film Award at the 15nd Golden Roc Awards in China. It is a very interesting short film. Qu Li plans to control the length of the film from 5 minutes to [-] minutes.

"I really envy your brain, you have so many interesting ideas..."

"Just tell me if you can get ready?"

"No problem, I'll wait for you to come over."

"Stone" has come to an end. The total box office of the movie has reached 3300 million, which can be ranked among the top 10 domestic movies. The investment of 400 million has harvested 3600 million box office. The production and distribution share is 43%, of which 10% is distribution expenses, and deducted Of the 100 million publicity fee, Liu Dehua invested 300 million, and was able to get approximately 816 million, making a profit of 1.7 times.

Of course, this movie also has overseas copyright income, but if you think about it, you know that the overseas box office of "Stone" will not be much, and Liu Dehua will not get 1000 million in the end.But no matter what, I was originally planning to lose everything, but I didn't expect that I not only recovered my capital but also made a profit.Liu Dehua, who helped with publicity, was really happy and attended the final celebration banquet.
