Chapter 822 You can do business, but you can’t do it randomly! (33)

Sister Mi is very smart!

Even if she is not smart, her man is smart enough.

Shen Changlin told her at the beginning of last year, "Be prepared for transformation. You are already 30, and you should say goodbye to Mary Sue dramas"...

She took it to heart.

But the execution is a little awkward...

First, the team analyzed her strengths and weaknesses.

Advantages: top traffic, No. 1 commercial value among post-80s generation, idol drama queen, public endorsement, quasi-grand slam in five major fashion magazines;

Disadvantages: Lack of film masterpieces, no support from authoritative awards...

The representative works here refer to works that have both commercial value and artistic value, such as "Li Mi's Conjecture" and the like.

That would be easy, just find a great director of literary films and make a literary film to prove your acting skills!

Authoritative film awards are basically won by literary and artistic films, which are also a mirror for testing an actor's acting skills.

Here’s the problem. Directors of literary and artistic films generally have their own base. They either use them as queens, or big-name celebrities lower their salaries - Tang Wei starred in "The Last Night on Earth" at a low price, or there are dedicated literary celebrities, such as Hao Lei. Tan Zhuo or Huang Lu...

And it’s not like you can win awards for literary films just by making them. Those who can always hit the mark are either experienced actors or geniuses.

Want to win a prestigious award if you have no acting skills?

Unless, you have connections and spend money to buy it, and then you are laughed at by the crowd - Gwyneth Paltrow.

Nowadays, there is a serious script shortage in China, and there are fewer and fewer good literary and artistic films. It is like hunting for a good one, and the big names in the film industry will not compete with her.

Disaster!

Yang Xiaomi’s team does not have this ability.

Otherwise, she would never be allowed to accept any Houston movie queen, let alone publicize it...

…

Whether you agree or not, box office is the GDP of the Chinese film market.

For the relatively more special mainland film market, box office is more of an indicator, political achievement, face, and tangible benefits.

At the beginning of the year, some people predicted that this year’s total box office would start at 60 billion!

In fact, judging from the general trend, this judgment is very accurate...

The Chinese film market is in an era of booming box office. For the Chinese film market, which is growing at a high speed of at least 25% every year, it was 52.5 billion last year and over 60 billion this year. There is nothing wrong with it!

However, the cold reality has poured cold water on Chinese filmmakers. Based on the rapid increase in the number of screens for Chinese movies every day, the annual box office of 53.4 billion is a counter-trend in box office growth.

Mainland audiences who were once known as "people who are stupid and have too much money" have finally opened their eyes after suffering from bad domestic films. If producers want to make money from the audience's pockets, they must improve the quality of the films...

This year happens to be a year when domestic films as a whole are in decline, but the good news is that the days when film producers want to make money from bad films are over!

Which company has never produced a bad movie?

Changlin Film and Television!

Or projects related to Shen Changlin...

Yang Xiaomi made a special appointment with Shi Shi and Shen Changlin this time for two purposes. The first was to let him see a project and let him judge whether it was reliable. The other was... she wanted to star in "The God of Medicine"...

The first project is "Baby", directed by Liu Jie.

Liu Jie is an all-round talent who can serve as screenwriter, director, photographer, and producer.

He served as photography and photography director for many of Wang Xiaoshuai's films, such as "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle" and "Winter and Spring Days". Later, he became his own director. He is good at handling realistic-themed literary films that take place in remote areas, and has a good reputation. Yes, for example, "Court on Horseback", "Biluo Snow Mountain", "Delan"...

"Baby", produced by Hou Xiaoxian, has been awarded the title of Golden Horse Venture Capital!

The story goes like this: an abandoned child with severe congenital disabilities tries to save a defective baby who has been sentenced to death by his parents...

Shi Shi asked first: "What is your personality?"

"Child-stealer..."

"Why steal?"

"If I don't steal it, the child will be given up... The director just has an idea, and the script is still being written!"

"Then...the audience won't be able to empathize."

"Literary films are definitely very niche." Yang Xiaomi gave the example of "The Deserted City": "The box office of "The Deserted City" was only 160 million..."

Shi Shi looked at Shen Changlin, who slowly spoke: ""The Deserted City" is a theme of the Republic of China. It tells about bad things. It is normal for the audience not to be interested, but the reputation of this kind of theme is definitely not bad... What you said I don’t like the story!”

"Not optimistic? Why?"

"If I were asked to do this subject, I would focus on the parents who abandoned their babies. Describing why parents give up is far more profound than describing why you steal!"

"Director Liu Jie said that I am the leading female lead...the whole play revolves around me."

Shi Shi nodded: "Where's the script? Let me take a look!"

"There is only one concept. The main plot has been determined. How to shoot it needs to be polished on site..."

"Um?"

"But he has long wanted to film the speech..."

Have you wanted to take a photo for a long time?

And then no time to write a script?

Isn’t this a contradiction in riding a horse?

Shi Shi rolled his eyes: "Ignore him, just ask him if he has a complete script... It's his honor to star in his movie because of your popularity!"

“…But this is a Golden Horse Venture Capital project…”

"So what about the Golden Horse? Even if you win the Golden Horse Award, what will happen? Those who don't like you still don't like you...I tell you that times have changed...How do you say that?"

Shi Shi looked at Shen Changlin, who thought for a while and then asked: "Are you saying that the way of judging celebrities has changed now?"

"right!"

Shi Shi continued: "In recent years, I have clearly felt the impact of the Internet on the entertainment industry. In today's era, traffic comes first. As long as you have traffic, there is a market for your acting skills no matter how rubbish they are. There is actually no point in worrying about your acting skills, even if your acting skills are paralyzed. , and we cannot deny the fact that you are a representative figure of a generation of female stars!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

What nonsense are you talking about?

Shen Changlin quickly interjected: "Actually, the environment has changed. In the past, various resources were controlled by small internal circles such as film studios, TV stations, and well-known directors. If you want to be famous, it is very simple. You have to be noticed by a certain director, or... If a certain unit favors the actor, the actor will soon become famous.

At that time, actors only needed to work hard on maintaining connections and working hard on filming. At that time, it was not very profitable for actors to film, so it was more cost-effective for actresses to find opportunities to get married while they were young."

"It's different now. Actors earn more and more importantly. The person who controls the resources has changed from a small circle to a pile of capital. It is the nature of capital to pursue profit. Therefore, there is no need for you to torment yourself for the so-called acting school. It is meaningless! "

"Then what should I do?"
