NOVEL FROG Chapter 124
[Task: Detected that the host brings too much sadness, please shoot a comedy. Requirements: Please release it during the Spring Festival and invest at least 80%】
【Reward: One golden lottery chance!
Chen Xiao couldn't help but snort when he heard this task.
It is worthy of being the strongest film and television system, and it pays great attention to the mental health of the audience.
Comedy is comedy.
This is much more comfortable than before when it asked to make a short film and it asked to make a movie.
But this reward is another golden lottery chance, with a 48% probability. It won't be a skill this time, right? If I click on the skill again, I will become an immortal.
Forget it, I won't complain about it.
Think about what to shoot.
Chen Xiao put the animation information into a folder, took out a few pieces of white paper, spread them on the table, turned on the system and prepared to search for the movie.
Just when he was about to search, an idea flashed in his mind.
The system requires comedy, and the Ministry of Culture wants to promote traditional culture.
Traditional culture + comedy
《Doesn't"Kung Fu" meet the requirements? However,"Kung Fu" has a little less martial arts elements, and it is more martial arts-oriented.
Think about it again...
It seems that no blockbuster meets both requirements at the same time.
Separate the system tasks and the work of the Ministry of Culture.
Among the 18 fields of the Ministry of Culture, I want to choose martial arts.
After all, I just got the master-level martial arts, and I can't help wanting to show off.
Find a martial arts movie.
After flipping through it for a while, Chen Xiao found that martial arts movies can be roughly divided into two types.
One is relatively pure martial arts movies such as"Fist of Fury" and"Shaolin Temple". Martial arts is considered the core selling point.
The other is"Kung Fu" and"Kung Fu Panda", where martial arts are slightly less important, but the selling points are more diverse.
Chen Xiao stroked his chin.
The former is pretty good.
But there is a problem. There are fewer types of selling points, and there are fewer audiences.
Boys who are not very interested in martial arts, if they are not his fans, may not spend money to go to the cinema to watch it.
His task is not to show professional martial arts, but to bring martial arts to the vision of more people and increase his presence.
Therefore, the number of audiences ranks first.
After bringing martial arts into people's vision, a large number of martial arts videos and simple teaching methods can achieve good results, just like when"Farewell My Concubine" was broadcast.
Then"Kung Fu" is the best choice. It is a comedy during the Spring Festival, which is very attractive. In order to increase the promotion of martial arts, the martial arts fighting clips in"Kung Fu" can be increased.
Its original martial arts fighting clips, such as the fighting scenes of Kuliqiang, Youzhagui, and Sissy Tailor, are very handsome, but unfortunately there are too few. Add some.
From the perspective of making money, it is also very suitable.
《"Kung Fu" was a big hit at both the domestic and overseas box office in the original world. It also does not violate his plan to go to the international stage.
That's it.
As for the budget, 150 million from the Ministry of Culture is enough.
But as an outstanding socialist successor, how can he let the country pay so much money?
He pays 90%!
In the past six months, the international box office share of"Farewell My Concubine", the online broadcast share of"Titanic", and the dividends from the Diamond Company have been received one after another. Another 200 million has been accumulated in the card, which must be enough.
Just when I thought of this, the phone rang.
I thought it was Secretary He's call, but when I picked it up, it turned out to be Li Zhiming himself calling.
"Good morning, Minister Li."
"Hello, Director Chen. The movie has passed the review. Next, we can find a distributor to arrange for the release. I have already contacted Xiao He. If you need anything, please contact him."
"Okay, thank you Minister Li."
"How are you thinking about the new film? If you haven't thought it through, just think about it slowly, no rush."
Chen Xiao smiled.
Isn't this a coincidence? I just thought of it.
"I have an idea. I want to choose the martial arts field. I think I can write a simple script in half a month."
"Half a month later. Today is the 8th, so let's have dinner together on October 1st and then go to the premiere. Oh, by the way, I would suggest that you don't premiere at midnight, but go to the evening of the 1st. If you premiere at midnight, it will be almost 3 o'clock after the premiere. You have so many female fans, it's not safe for a group of girls to be outside at 3 o'clock in the morning"
"Well, it is indeed more appropriate to change it to the evening. But... I have also made an appointment with the crew for the premiere." Chen Xiao said awkwardly.
Although Minister Li's invitation is very important, we can't break our promise.
"How many of you are there?"
"About 20, the leading actors and the core team made an appointment to watch it together"
"Then let's all go to the department's screening room. There are more than 300 seats, and you 20 people are not a big problem. I plan to let the people in the department watch it voluntarily. I guess it's hard to get tickets in the cinema. It's a big holiday, so just consider it as a benefit for them."
Chen Xiao hummed.
He sighed in his heart that this leader was really considerate.
The two chatted for a while, agreed on a place to eat on October 1, and then hung up the phone.
Chen Xiao thought for a while, contacted the head of the production team in the work group, and asked him to contact the distributor and do publicity.
Distribution is easy to handle. It goes without saying for domestic distribution. As for foreign distribution, he exchanged contact information with several foreign distributors during the Venice Film Festival. They had also contacted him a long time ago.
In terms of publicity, there is almost no need for publicity in China. Fans and the media automatically promote it. But it takes some effort abroad.
Chen Xiao typed:"Release the trailer and contact foreign media for publicity."
Head of the production team:"Received"
……
Three days later at 10:00 AM
《Interstellar announced that it will be released at 18:00 on October 1, Beijing time, and released a trailer.
Netizens, especially fans, quickly clicked on the trailer.
Within an hour, the number of views exceeded 800,000.
Of course, this also led many school teachers to find that why there are more naughty children today?
Their sense of presence is low again, alas!
This includes Chen Mingfu, who is taking a high-level mathematics class.
This semester, he is still teaching freshmen.
At the end of the last semester, 48 of the 53 people in the class scored above 95 points. The school was so scared that it checked the surveillance of their class.
In the end, he successfully got 100 autographed photos under Chen Xiao's resentful eyes and the transaction conditions of feeding fish without catching fish.
This semester, he taught at the Academy of Art, and took the remaining autographed photos as bait, and the students always listened carefully.
But today, he didn't listen to the class again. It's okay not to listen all the time, but I'm used to them listening to the class, so it's really uncomfortable to be so surprised.
His former glory is no longer there!
Who is it!
Who is causing trouble again?
Feeling the long-lost loneliness, Chen Mingfu couldn't hold it in any longer and asked,"What are you looking at?"
"Teacher, Director Chen's new film has a trailer."
Chen Mingfu rolled his eyes in his heart.
Damn boy, why did you choose to release it at a different time than your father's class time!
Don't you know that your father is teaching at the Art Academy this semester? They will definitely go and watch it secretly.
Chen Mingfu pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and slapped the table.
"Stop being sneaky, let's watch it together now! Shorten the get out of class time, watch it and attend class well, otherwise your autographed photo will be cancelled!"
"good!!"
""Good!"
The students immediately put down their phones and stared at the monitors on both sides of the classroom with sparkling eyes.
There was a projector at the front of the classroom and two monitors on both sides.
The image quality of the monitor was much better than that of the projector.
Chen Mingfu looked at the students' serious faces and couldn't help curling his lips.
He secretly complained in his heart, why do you like that brat? Teacher, I look similar to Chen Xiao, but I have less hair and more mature charm. It's the same for me to like me!
——
At the end of this chapter, I want to explain why I chose"Kung Fu" from the author's perspective. (If you want to skip, you can go to the next chapter directly)ღ(´･ᴗ･`)
Actually, the original intention was to choose a domestic film.
Because the protagonist has to go international and represent China. It always feels a bit awkward to use a foreign film to praise the rise of China.
So I added another domestic film. Two of the first four are domestic and two are foreign, so it’s better to have a half-weight ratio.
As for domestic films, I looked through Douban’s top 250. Considering the background of the world’s advanced technology, I will not shoot"Dying to Survive" for the time being. I may shoot it later, but I need to consider how to coordinate with the world background.
Some of the movies before"Kung Fu" are difficult to find themes, and some overlap with the themes that have been written, and the next one is the Spring Festival, so it’s better to be festive. So I decided on it.
Compared with the first three, the status of"Kung Fu" seems to be a little lower, but generally speaking it is a good choice.
Starting from the next movie, the protagonist starts his own company and stands firm in the international arena, so I can grab it regardless of the country and watch blockbusters!
