Everyone was in the hotel room, eating and chatting together.
"Mr. Feng, thank you for giving me this opportunity. I'd like to toast you a glass of wine." Liu Tianwang raised his glass and said.
Feng Yu raised his red wine glass: "Just feel free to do it. The two of you performed very well at today's concert, and we enjoyed it very much."
Liu Ruoying asked cautiously: "Mr. Feng, do you always write songs when you have nothing to do?"
Feng Yu understood immediately that Liu Ruoying also wanted a song, but was too embarrassed to ask.
"I'm just humming for fun out of boredom. If you like it, I'll send you a song later." Feng Yu said casually.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Feng." Liu Ruoying was overjoyed. No matter whether the song is good or not, as long as it is written by Mr. Feng, the topic will make the song a hit!
What's more, if Mr. Feng is really the Wuming, the songs he produces will definitely not be bad.
In fact, in Liu Ruoying's opinion, Feng Yu might just hum casually, then find a gold medal songwriter to compose a song, and then blame Feng Yu for it.
Many singers write songs this way. Singing well does not mean being creative.
"Liu Tianwang, you have a good movie coming out this year, right? Opposing Tony Leung again? This movie will definitely take the first place in the box office rankings!" Wen Dongjun said.
"Yes, it tells the story of Mohism among the Hundreds of Scholars during the Warring States Period. As for the movie box office, director Feng's blockbuster will be released this year."
Feng Yu said with a smile: "Director Feng's blockbuster? That "The Night Banquet"?"
"Yes, that's an all-star cast, and the box office may be several hundred million!" Wen Dongjun said exaggeratedly. When he said this, he did not consider Liu Tianwang's feelings at all, which seemed to imply that Liu Tianwang's movie would definitely fail at the box office.
Feng Yu shook his head: ""The Night Banquet" is adapted from "Hamlet" and also draws on "Thunderstorm". Western and Eastern cultures are inherently different. If the adaptation is specious, it will not perform well at the box office. Some people want to take advantage of this film The movie is competing for awards, but I don’t have much hope.”
Wen Dongjun opened his mouth: "Ah? A combination of "Hamlet" and "Thunderstorm"? How will this movie be made? No wonder I heard that the Chinese brothers only invested half in the end and let other companies invest in the other half. , you are not optimistic about it."
Liu Tianwang said: "Mr. Feng, I think Director Feng is a very good director. His name alone is worth watching by many people."
Liu Ruoying also said: "Yes, it's a pity that there is no suitable role for me in that movie."
"I'm not saying that Director Feng is not good enough. I like many of his movies. Even in his next movie "Assembly", I asked my Chinese brothers to invest more. It's just that the script of this movie is not very good. But I am really looking forward to a movie invested by Liu Tianwang this year. Let the Chinese brothers distribute it. If the publicity expenses are increased, the box office will definitely be good."
Liu Tianwang was confused: "The movie I invested in? Which one is Mr. Feng referring to?"
Liu Tianwang participated in the Asian Emerging Directors Program to support some emerging directors. One of the directors he was very optimistic about, Ning Hao, was signed by him.
""Crazy Stone", I think this name is very interesting. I have also seen your promotion, and it is too small to rely on your own platform to promote it. If it is distributed by Chinese brothers, the box office of this movie can exceed 5 Ten million!"
Liu Tianwang's eyes widened, how much does it cost? Fifty million
His total investment in this movie was only 3 million yuan, including publicity expenses. How could he get 50 million yuan at the box office? With a box office of 50 million, it has to be a big movie by a big director. The only famous person in this movie, Baldy Xu, is just a small supporting role.
In the previous life, "Crazy Stone" was so poorly promoted, but it was able to counterattack with word-of-mouth and still get a box office of 23 million. If there are Chinese brothers to help distribute and promote it in this life, it is not impossible to double the box office. .
Not to mention anything else, how many discs of "Crazy Stone" were sold later, and many people are still watching free resource replays on the Internet many years later.
"Why, Liu Tianwang thinks I'm joking?" Feng Yu looked at Liu Tianwang with a half-smile.
"Of course not." Liu Tianwang said in his heart, this money seems to be a lot of money to me, but to Mr. Feng, it is just a drop in the bucket.
"In that case, I will contact the Chinese brothers tomorrow. If this movie can be so successful, I have to thank Mr. Feng for his help."
Wen Dongjun asked curiously: "Feng Yu, is the box office of movies so high now? Even without a well-known director or a famous actor, there can be tens of millions in box office? So, if you invest in movies, will you make a lot of money?"
Feng Yu explained helplessly: "Those who invest in movies can only get about one-third of the box office share, and they also have to pay taxes and so on. It is not as much as you think. However, in the next few years, the domestic movie box office will There will definitely be an outbreak, which is closely related to our country's economy."
"Why do you think movie box office is so high in the United States? Because they live a prosperous life and are materially satisfied, so they will pursue spiritual food. Just like when you come to a concert, if you can only earn 800 yuan a month, you will give it up. Going to the concert?”
Wen Dongjun curled his lips, eight hundred yuan, eight hundred yuan is my phone bill.
"Look at our country's economy, which has made rapid progress in recent years. People have more and more money in their hands, so they will naturally go to a movie or something on the weekend. Even some people who did not plan to go originally, but after advertising, they I’ll also be tempted.”
"In the past two years, the box office of our Chinese movies has exceeded 100 million. Now the economic situation is better. This can be seen from the increasing number of movies produced every year. But what people like to watch is not feature films, but interesting movies. .”
"For example, comedies, such as action movies, can either make people laugh or make people excited. Just like Liu Tianwang's "Infernal Affairs", it became popular all over the world."
Liu Tianwang quickly said humbly: "I don't deserve Mr. Feng's praise. It's mainly because the script is good."
"Yes, actors are very important, and the script is also very important. I heard that the "Crazy Stone" you are filming this time is not only a comedy, but also has a well-crafted script. I think as long as you pay attention during post-editing, don't If there are scenes of revealing gangsters, then the box office and reputation will definitely not be bad."
"After the success of this movie, we can work together to make a few more movies, which will not only make money for ourselves, but also enrich the spiritual life of the people."
Wen Dongjun interrupted again at this time: "You actually talk about making money in such a high-sounding way?"
Feng Yu has a black hair, this second-rate guy, I have achieved so much style in vain!
