Chapter 842 The last project before the cold winter, "Detective Chinatown 3"!
Chen An’s office glass cabinet has been replaced with a new the trophy just couldn't fit in there.
I specially asked someone to design a new cabinet.
I put in some miscellaneous awards that were not included before.
Awards from the British Film Institute, the Hollywood Guild and some film festivals are all included.
Dozens of trophies in total almost filled one wall of the office.
The three major mainland Chinese films are put together, the Oscars are put together, and the three major European films are put together in an orderly manner.
"Do you have to show off like that?" Chen Wei said gritting his teeth as he looked at the other party's dazzling array of trophies.
The various gold and silver trophies made his eyes hurt.
Chen An spread out his hands, sat on the sofa and said with a smile: "There is no other way. It would be a bit of a waste to throw them away, so I just stuffed them all in."
"If you don't like it, just give it to me. I can sell it on Taobao for some money."
Chen Wei said to Chen An in a Versailles manner, "If you really don't want it, I'll throw it away for you."
You only have a few trophies, yet you complain that they are too many.
"I've made a new cabinet. It would be a waste to throw it away now. You'd better keep it." Chen An had an expression that said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" as if he would have given it to him if the other party had told him earlier.
Chen Wei looked unhappy and didn't bother to pay attention to him, so he took out a script.
"This is what the company just wrote. I think it's pretty good. Take a look."
"Then let me see."
Chen An took over the script of "Detective Chinatown 3" and handed it to the company for revision and improvement.
After eliminating the ridiculous plot that was accused of plagiarism in the previous life, more than a dozen screenwriters in the company gathered together to revise it. It can't be said to be perfect, but it is much better than the original.
"That's it." Chen An lit a cigarette and threw the script back. "Starting from the first half of next year, we can start preparing."
"Of course, if you don't want to take the photo, you can find someone to take your place."
He doesn't like making series anyway, so it's fine if the other party really doesn't want to make them anymore.
Chen Wei picked up the script and said without interruption: "Go ahead and shoot it, why not? It might make me a lot of money."
The money given by the other party is really amazing, and I don’t have to pay for it myself. In the last movie, I made tens of millions and the company even paid the taxes for me.
The treatment received by Chen An is absolutely top-notch.
"Okay, if you want to take pictures, that's fine. I'm relieved. I'm just worried that you'll get tired of taking pictures." Seeing that the other party had no objection, Chen An didn't stop him and felt relieved to hand it to him.
Chen Wei nodded and said, "I don't have the ability of you and Senior Brother Zhang, so I have some self-awareness. Being a director is already good enough. In fact, photography is more suitable for me."
"Although I was a little envious of Lao Diao for winning the Golden Bear, I also know that he is more talented than me."
"But I'm still happy. At least I was able to tell the story clearly and didn't disappoint you."
Chen An watched his old brother making a long speech of self-mockery and thanking him, and just smiled faintly: "What are you talking about? Being able to tell a story clearly is a great talent."
Especially for those sent by their academy.
It’s not that they can’t explain it clearly, but most of them have a high opinion of themselves, and those who have their own ideas like Chen Wei are a minority.
Of course, some people really can't explain it clearly.
"It will start filming in the first half of the year, and it is planned to be released during the Spring Festival next year?"
"probably."
Chen An didn't say it directly, but there will be no Spring Festival period the year after next.
But we still had to make the movie first, and then use hunger marketing, spending money slowly and steadily to push the popularity of the movie to the highest level!
Otherwise, how could something as outrageous as a billion-dollar box office on the first day come out?
"Detective Chinatown 3" is bad enough, but it still made 45 billion at the box office.
Thanks to hunger marketing, the 21st Spring Festival period is big enough. After a year of absence, the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies has returned. It is worth spending some money in advance. If the adapted "Detective Chinatown 3" can maintain its reputation, it can still reach billion, not to mention breaking the record.
It's not enough to let Boss Jia come from behind and surpass him to break the 50 billion box office.
From a variety show comedian to a famous "big director".
"Okay, I'll go back and take a look. Then I'll go to Xiao Zi Zai and contact the actors for Xiao Zi Zai." Chen Wei rubbed his hands with the smile of an experienced gourmet.
Some female stars who made their livings today are still well-known in China, not to mention the time when Japan’s entertainment industry dominated the country a long time ago.
Chen Wei plans to have a good contact with him.
In Chen An's eyes, he is nothing, but if he is taken away from others, he is a well-known director even in Asia.
With his outstanding film achievements over the years, he has dominated the Chinese market and is also one of the well-known commercial directors!
Chen An pressed his hand awkwardly and coughed: "Cough, let me help you choose in advance, let's go with Masami Nagasawa, she's very good, well-known in China and has a high popularity in the country."
"Masami Nagasawa. I also want to find Ishihara and others!"
Chen Wei reacted halfway through: "Have you already decided?"
He stared at Chen An with eyes wide open, wishing he could tear him apart!
I worked so hard to make the movie, and you guys have already taken all the benefits, right?!
Chen An looked like a gentleman and said seriously, "Well, I think she is good."
"It's a good job, isn't it?" Chen Wei immediately remembered: "It was during the promotion of Ready Player One last time?"
"I'm going to fight you. You're eating secretly, right? Why don't you take the picture yourself!"
Seeing that the other party was about to take action, Chen An immediately stopped him and said, "You can do it yourself. Try fishing first. What are you afraid of as an outsider? Besides, I have already said what I want to say, please be considerate."
Chen Wei's face turned pale as he thought about his brother, otherwise he would definitely destroy him!
I do the work and he enjoys it, it's so infuriating!
After calming down, Chen Wei asked, "How do you feel?"
Chen An immediately gave a thumbs up and smiled in a perfect way: "In one word, smooth!"
Sometimes I have to sigh that I still enjoy a simple life, but I also regret not living that simple life for a longer time.
How many Showa beauties were wasted in the 1990s.
At that time, Akina Nakamori was only in her early thirties, still at the age of charm, so I should have gone over to comfort her.
Now there are only two or three cats, big and small, and none of them are interested.
If you follow me, you won't have to bear the stigma of being the most hated actress by everyday women for more than a decade.
"What a pity! After filming Little Forest, I should have gone out to make some money in the domestic market anyway."
"It's a pity for you, you can go now."
"I'm old now and not as young as I was. I still have to be careful."
"."Chen Wei was speechless.
How dare you say such things when you and Fan Xiaopang just had a fat son?
As expected, "Aquaman" took the top spot in the Lunar New Year box office.
The box office of 20 billion is considered the best performance of Warner's superhero movies in the country.
Director James Wan has really made a name for himself, and with his previous work "Fast & Furious 7", he has been promoted to a top Hollywood director.
"Ip Man 3" barely earned 8 million yuan at the box office, which is already a very good result. The IP potential of the series has been maintained well.
Lightyear Pictures’ journey in 2018 ended perfectly, with the overall box office share reaching billions.
The biggest contributor is naturally "Dying to Survive", but "Detective Chinatown 2" and "The Richest Man in Xihong City" also contributed greatly.
The box office of "Ready Player One" is second only to "Dying to Survive", but its share is not large and it is a mission-based work.
This income far exceeds that of many well-known domestic first-tier listed companies!
