You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 623 ① The whole family is nominated ② Take off the long gown ③ Market value of 100 billion!

That's right, in addition to Wang Quan himself being nominated for Best Newcomer and Best Director, his wife and ex-girlfriend were both nominated for Best Actress, and even his father was nominated for Best Actor.

At first, Wang Qiankun just played guest roles for fun, and some roles didn't even have lines.

Later, as his acting skills got better and better, he began to play some roles with character names and a few lines, and thus became the highest-grossing human on the planet (not considering the ranking).

Later, he was finally not satisfied with supporting roles, and it happened that there was an opportunity at this time, which was "Heart Labyrinth" directed by Xin Yukun.

His debut work "Silent Rage" used a lot of star lineups, with a large investment, but it had a good reputation and pitifully little profit.

So he thought that this time he would simply not use stars and reduce the investment from more than 20 million in "Silent Rage" to the current 10 million.

After hearing about it, Lao Wang actively lobbied in front of Director Xin Yukun, and finally succeeded in persuading him to get the opportunity to audition for the male lead.

Lao Wang's performance is quite original because he is not from a professional school. Moreover, the male lead is a village cadre, a role that he is very familiar with. Isn't this his elder brother?

So Lao Wang got this role with his good acting skills and low pay. After five years of cooperation, Xin Yukun finally launched such a work.

After registering for the Golden Horse Awards, it was not only nominated for the Best Actor Drama, but also for the Best Film, Best Director, and Best Screenwriter, all of which are heavyweight awards.

First, it won the Best Screenplay in the Un Certain Regard Unit of Venice, and now it has been nominated for the Golden Horse Awards, which provides a lot of topics for the film's release on October 16.

It did not wait until the Golden Horse Awards to be released, because at that time Wang Dao was going to release "July and Ansheng", and the fate of this movie would definitely be miserable.

There is still more than a month, and the publicity campaign for "July and Ansheng" has begun to fiercely. Even if it is not nominated for the Golden Horse Awards, this movie is still full of gimmicks.

According to the news from the film festival, this is a love triangle story between Wang Quan and Xian Mi. Wang Quan and Liu Yifei's roles were a couple at first, but were later snatched away by her bestie Yang Mi.

Is Zhang Jingchu sure she is not alluding to reality? ! Yang Mi actually took this role, is she sure she won't get herself into trouble!

Passersby who want to watch the fun can already imagine how fiercely the fans of the two top women will fight on the day of the release.

"Heart Labyrinth" has an obvious advantage in using Lao Wang as the male lead compared to really finding an amateur actor. Not to mention that the top three Dawang Cinemas in the country will do their best to arrange movies starring their bosses, and Lao Wang's topic popularity is no less than that of some well-known actors.

At the premiere of "Heart Labyrinth", Wang Quan attended with Xian Mi. He and Mi Mi had just rushed over from the crew of "Xiao Yao You".

In addition to them, many first- and second-tier stars came to the scene, and some movie company bosses also came.

This appeal is second only to Wang Quan.

The box office performance was also good, with the first-day box office exceeding 30 million, which directly recovered the cost, and the word of mouth was better than "Silent Witness".

Among the new Chinese films released in 2016, it was second only to "Parasite".

The film is a suspense crime film. In addition to the lack of the blessing of big stars, it is actually very enjoyable to watch.

Last month, Cao Baoping's "The Murderer" finally had a box office of 380 million, a score of more than 7 points, and brought together a star lineup such as Liu Ye and Zhang Yi.

The box office of "The Labyrinth of Heart" was probably more than 300 million.

Fortunately, a week later, a word-of-mouth masterpiece was born in the market again, the drama adaptation movie "Donkey Gets Water" produced by Happy Twist Films.

It is another masterpiece with a score of 8+, which has a better reputation than Happy Twist's previous "Charlotte's Troubles", but it is not comedy enough, and there are no familiar faces such as Shen Teng, so the box office did not explode, and it has been suppressed by "The Labyrinth of Heart", but it has also successfully exceeded 100 million.

The film was definitely profitable, and Ren Suxi, who is good at acting and singing, was made famous.

This film is just a small test for Happy Twist. Their real killer is the "Shameful Iron Fist" currently being filmed, which is expected to be released next summer.

In the evening, Wang Quan took his wife and daughter to have dinner with his parents. When Lao Wang went to the bathroom, Mei Yanqiu asked with concern: "Son, do you think your father has a high chance of winning the Best Actor Award?"

Wang Quan: "To be honest, it's not too high. Even Huang Xiaoming has a higher chance than him."

Huang Xiaoming was nominated for the Best Actor Award at the Golden Horse Awards for the first time with "The Tuner". Many of his fans think that "Partners" should have been nominated that year, which is really a missed gem.

"In addition to Huang Xiaoming, there are also Fan Wei, Zhang Xueyou, and Xu Guanwen, none of whom are vegetarians."

Mei Yanqiu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's relieved."

Yang Mi laughed and said: "Mom, don't you want my dad to win the Best Actor Award?"

Mei Yanqiu snorted: "The nomination is enough for him to brag about. If he wins the Best Actor Award, he won't be so proud. Now he just plays a few plays every year for fun. What if he gets addicted and doesn't go home every day, then my marriage will be in vain."

It seems that Mei Yanqiu has some complaints about Lao Wang's filming.

If the elderly are addicted to something, they can really ignore their family.

On the way home, Wang Quan called Dorothy. In addition to reporting the latest developments of the two children, the two also talked about the recent major changes in Warner.

AT\u0026T, the second largest mobile operator in the United States, acquired Time Warner, the parent company of Warner Bros., for $84.5 billion in a half-cash, half-stock deal at $107.5 per share.

Now the mergers of giants are becoming more and more serious, and Disney has also set its sights on 20th Century Fox.

The price of Time Warner is lower than the market value of Dragon Head and Netflix, which shows that these two companies actually have the strength comparable to the Big Six.

After returning home from Lao Wang, Yang Mi turned on the TV, and "Phoenix Power" was on the air, starring Ni Ni and Zhang Ruoyun.

Zhang Ruoyun, the actor who once starred in "Time 1997" with Yang Mi, has been up and down for many years, and finally found his own acting path, the male lead of the online novel adaptation.

In addition to this "Phoenix Power", he has just taken over the male lead of "Celebrating Yu Nian". This drama is the focus of Qidian's work in the past two years, and it is also a key project of Qiankun and Mi Shi. Chen Daoming's son-in-law Wang Liwei was specially invited to be the producer.

Then Wang Liwei got his father-in-law Chen Daoming to play the villain Emperor Qing, and there will be more than 100 episodes in total, a total of three seasons.

Wang Quan followed the drama with his wife and girlfriend while reading various feedbacks on the Internet. It was the same as what he thought, with good reputation. As for the ratings, we have to wait a few days to see the trend.

However, Yuewen can start to brag.

In addition to the recent frequent news of novel adaptations of animation and film and television, Yuewen has another big happy event recently, that is, Yuewen is about to cooperate with Hollywood big companies to develop projects, and this time it is not the Dragon Heads Up!

If it is Yuewen + Dragon Heads Up, people will only say that this is Wang Quan's left hand to right hand, praising himself, which cannot be regarded as Yuewen's own success, nor can it be regarded as cultural output, but this time the film adaptation rights have really been bought by Hollywood.

A group of great gods on Qidian.

Dancing: Since everyone knows it, I won't hide it. That's right, Legendary Pictures bought the film adaptation rights of "Devil's Law" and is preparing to develop a series of films benchmarked against "The Lord of the Rings".

For a moment, the whole group was in an uproar, because they had no idea before!

Then Wudao threw an English link to them, "See for yourself! The Hollywood Times report."

The cause of the incident was the Wuxia World Novel Network that Wangquan had laid out many years ago, which can also be said to be the overseas version of Yuewen.

Although Wuxia World was quite successful, it allowed many Yuewen online writers to earn money and foreign exchange for the first time, and even some authors had overseas income that exceeded their local income, which was simply a pleasant surprise.

However, it was not until last year that Wuxia World and the comic company acquired by Wangquan established a comic website and began to adapt Chinese online literature into comics. This time it was completely out of the circle and truly had the appearance of cultural output.

Sure enough, the overseas readers of online literature are basically the lower class. With their academic qualifications, they may be able to understand novels, but they really don't like to read words, and they are more accepting of the form of comics.

So the first batch of ten classic online literature English comic versions were launched, including Western fantasy, fairy tales, science fiction, and domineering.

"Devil's Law" is not the most popular among them, but Legendary Pictures is now owned by Wanda, and a Chinese executive was sent there.

He found that the good scripts were not his at all, as they had already been divided up by the six major companies and Longtouzhi. Especially Longtouzhi, not only was he very selective in choosing scripts, but he also had already occupied the copyrights of many excellent novels.

Later, he discovered the website Wuxia World and saw the influence of Chinese online novels overseas, so he communicated with the domestic community and finally won "Devil's Law" at a not-so-high price.

He thought that foreigners should be more receptive to Western fantasy and magic.

Blood-red eyes were bloodshot: How much copyright fee did Xiao Wu receive? Can you tell me?

Dance: Anyway, I can retire now, and I can still get money after the work is filmed. I can't compare with Rowling, but I am satisfied. Otherwise, it has to be a big company. I can't negotiate such good conditions myself.

Sugar plus three spoons: The overseas copyright still has to be Western fantasy. I am considering whether to switch back to Western fantasy.

Tiancan Tudou: Indeed, I remember that Tomato's "Panlong" was also very popular in the United States.

I Eat Tomato: It is difficult to upgrade the text to a movie, but the income from overseas comics is also good.

The Squid Who Loves Diving: I envy the boss. I will also fight the Western Fantasy again after I finish this one!

He has now opened a dog food article, which just matches his current sweet love status, called "Dog Food Master".

Mao Ni: It can't be compared with Wu Da. I only have one TV adaptation.

Yue Guan: Damn, Mao, I have experience in filming TV series, and I must be cautious in choosing actors!

Several of his novels are considered to be the earliest web dramas adapted by Qidian. As a result, they were shelved indefinitely because of the use of Korean stars.

Mao Ni: I can't get a word in, but the company found Chen Daoming to play Emperor Qing, and I am still very satisfied.

The group was silent again, and then a louder voice broke out.

Hollywood is too far away, invisible and intangible, but Chen Daoming is considered to be the top existence among the old actors in China today, and he has always been known for his style. He actually starred in a web drama, and he is still a supporting role!

Mao Ni, this is a bitch, no, Mao Ni is really good at pretending!

Soon, the news of Joy of Life and The Devil's Law spread from this group to the outside, sparking a huge discussion among readers.

Amid this discussion, China Literature Group was officially listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Wang Quan did not attend, after all, it was a weekday and he still had to film.

However, he sent his assistant Xiaotian to Hong Kong as his representative.

In addition, 30 representatives of Yuewen writers came to Hong Kong to ring the bell, including male and female writers, including Qidian, Jinjiang, Hongxiu, Xiaoxiang, and Yaoqi. It was very lively.

Tianxia Guiyuan was also invited to attend because of the big hit of "Phoenix Power". In addition, her works such as "The Queen of Fuyao" were also sought after by the market and sold at sky-high prices of tens of millions.

Of course, at least half of these sky-high prices will go into Yuewen's pocket, which is also the confidence of Yuewen's listing.

Although only a few copyrights have been sold, Yuewen holds the copyrights of tens of thousands of excellent works, which gives investors unlimited possibilities.

Yuewen Group issued a total of 151 million shares to the international and Hong Kong IPO, with an issue price of HK$60 per share.

After listing, the stock price soared immediately and broke through 100 in 20 minutes.

When Wang Quan finished work in Beijing, Yuewen's market value had reached 110 billion!

If the entire entertainment industry is included, Yuewen's market value even exceeds Qiankun Culture, and it is far ahead of Mishi Media.

Yang Mi is always paying attention at home. After all, she also has some Yuewen original shares given by Wang Quan.

This husband is good at paying, and he can easily give hundreds of millions.

However, she is not convinced in her heart. Yuewen is an online novel website, and it only charges two cents per thousand words. How can it compare with the film and television giant Mishi!

Wang Quan corrected: "The price has been raised. It is now 3 to 5 cents per thousand words, but don't underestimate this business of a few cents per thousand words. This is a market supported by millions of authors. Moreover, Yuewen can occupy most of the entire online literature industry and a small half of the comics market. Qiankun and Mishi may not even account for 10% of the film and television industry."

Even Wang Dao dare not say that it occupies half of the mainland film industry.

This remark silenced Yang Mi. In this way, Yuewen is indeed a giant.

However, 100 billion is too exaggerated. It won't be the peak at the beginning, right?
