At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 733 The movie market is booming?
As one of the four brothers in the dormitory, Liao Gaoxiang's status in Tianmei is similar to that of Zhao Linhai and the others.

It belongs to the senior level of the company.

In addition, several of them are the founders of the company and have original shares.

When Tianmei Media was still called Tianmei Studio, the four people in the dormitory except Shen Xudong, who held 51% of the shares, took the majority, and the other three each took about ten shares.

Liao Gaoxiang is no exception.

As the veterans of the company, the three of them have been making progress, saying that they cannot hold back Shen Xudong.

This is especially true for Liao Gaoxiang. After the two "The Best Family", he also gradually transitioned from a pure screenwriter to a producer...

I also have my own studio, which is actually a company.

But he usually does TV shows.

And I prefer costume dramas, especially martial arts.

In the martial arts dramas in recent years, there are very few phenomenal blockbusters. Even Jin Yong's adaptation of The Deer and Ding Ji has more complaints than influence.

But there have always been TV stations willing to pay the bill.

Tianmei Media obtained the film and television adaptation rights of "Swordsman", "The Legend of Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Liao Gaoxiang's studio got the production rights.

He also thinks that the second creation is interesting, which is to change the protagonist of the original work into a supporting role.

For example, "Swordsman" has Lin Pingzhi as the main character.

You Dazhi and Wu Jinyuan were recruited for joint guidance, and Chen Weitao and Li Guoyuan were recruited for action guidance.

These two people are not well-known, but they are very powerful. They have contributed to the TVB version of "The Legend of Condor Heroes", Tang Ren's version of "Peerless Twins", "Young General Yang" and other works...

The lineup behind the scenes is very strong!
As for the actors, Lin Pingzhi and Chen Xiao made reservations in advance.

After "Hot Detective", Chen Xiao became very popular. Let him play the leading role, among other things, it would be an easy task to sell it for a good price.

Some time ago, I heard him complain that Linghu Chong was hard to find...

Shen Xudong casually said, 'Deng Chao is quite suitable', and was immediately stunned—Deng Chao is now a first-line student, a movie star, and it would be a waste to ask him to take on TV dramas, or is he a supporting role?
But... Deng Chao is really suitable!
Probably, Liao Gaoxiang couldn't think of a more suitable candidate...

So, come to him to persuade Deng Chao.

Oh, this was Shen Xudong's idea. Then, Liao Gaoxiang said, "What do you think of Liu Yifei playing Yue Lingshan?"

"...I'll help you..." No, it didn't seem to be Deng Chao, Shen Xudong quickly changed his words: "What the hell?"

"I sent an invitation to Liu Yifei...I wanted her to play Yue Lingshan, but she never replied."

"Do you think it's possible? She has only acted in "The King of Kung Fu" with Jackie Chan and Li Lianlian as her partners. Are you looking for her to act in a TV series now?"

Liao Gaoxiang looked around, and then whispered: "I heard that she was targeted by Hua Yi, and her godfather went in... Besides, our version of "Swordsman" belongs to the fanfiction, and Yue Lingshan is the heroine. I will offer her a price of 30 yuan for one episode, so I won't treat her badly!"

"Really go in?"

Liao Gaoxiang nodded: "Well, I heard it's involved..."

Shen Xudong sighed: "Tsk tsk, this is really watching him build a tall building, seeing him..."

Liao Gaoxiang waved his hand and interrupted the spellcasting: "...Brother, if you have something to say, please speak carefully, don't drag the text!"

"...I'm just a little emotional..." Back to the topic: "I heard that she went to Hong Kong to develop, and she is very close to the Emperor..."

Liao Gaoxiang shook his head: "It's useless to get close to the emperor..."

"Then why are you looking for me?"

"Aren't you on good terms with her? Help me persuade her!"

"...I haven't contacted her for a long time..." Shen Xudong persuaded: "Forget it, Yang Rong who signed with our company is very good, let's ask her to play Yue Lingshan!"

"This is our first Jin Yong drama. Actors must be perfect. Leaving aside other supporting roles, the hero and heroine must at least be stars!"

"...What's wrong? You still want Zhou Xun to play Yue Lingshan for you?"

Liao Gaoxiang was blocked by his words, and sighed: "...forget it, I'll try it with someone else!"

"Yang Rong... is actually pretty good, I suggest you give her a try..."

Liao Gaoxiang shook his head: "I'm definitely looking for someone who is popular..."

"Then you can try Yang Mi or Zhao Liying."

Liao Gaoxiang obviously knew about these two people, he thought about it for a while, and then said: "...Xiao Zhao is a bit close...just Yang Mi..."

"That's fine. Anyway, Yang Mi and Rong Xinda will transfer to our company when the contract expires, so they can be counted as one of us..."

At this point, the topic is almost over. Shen Xudong got up to go to dinner, and glanced at Liao Gaoxiang: "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

"Well... there's one more thing..."

"Let's go, eat and chat!"

……

The food of the crew of "33 Days of Broken Relationship" is very good.

If you have money, spend whatever you want!

With a production cost of 3000 million, the actual production cost does not exceed 1000 million, and the remaining money is all kinds of waste.

Bi Fang said that Li Ke carried three famous bags, and Shen Xudong bought them directly from the film crew. After the filming, Shen Xudong gave them to Bai Baihe, Zhang Hanyun and Chen Xi...

Meals are also provided according to the top-level meal allowance.

Liao Gaoxiang was stunned when he saw the table full of good dishes: "You...do you eat like this every day?"

"How is it possible... Isn't it you who came here? I informed the chef to add two dishes... Let's eat!"

Liao Gaoxiang swallowed, and then looked serious: "...Let me tell you, it's better to be poor in making art, especially making movies, you can't be divorced from the people."

"...Let me tell you the truth, the production cost of "33 Days of Broken Relationship" is less than 1000 million, but our income from advertising placement alone is as high as 3600 million. We must find a way to spend it... This time is an exception, and there should be no such good things in the future!"

"It's more or less the same!" Hearing Shen Xudong's explanation, Liao Gaoxiang sat down and was about to feast, when he thought of something: "You can't turn a movie into a commercial."

Shen Xudong had no choice but to assure him: "I'm not that kind of person. There isn't a single commercial in "Being Famous". It's really because "33 Days of Broken Relationship" has a special theme, realistic, urban romantic light comedy, and many daily necessities and luxury goods can be inserted as advertisements!"

"I believe you…"

Shen Xudong smiled, then lowered his head to pick up the rice, and while he was eating, he thought of something: "Why do you come to see me?"

"Oh, I invested in Shinjuku Incident..."

"What? You invest? You invest in your own name?"

"Of course it's in my own name, I voted 1000 million..."

1000 million... It is estimated that there will be a blood loss!
According to reports, the cost of "Shinjuku Incident" is 1.5 million, and the global copyright sales are about 800 million US dollars.

The movie was lucky that Jackie Chan broke up with the Emperor briefly.

Therefore, Shen Xudong was very curious: "1000 million...who asked you to invest?"

"Zhong Lifang told me... I also think Jackie Chan's transformation is not easy, and I want to do my best..."

"So, you put all your wealth on it?"

"There is no all-in. I have made a lot of money in the past few years... 1000 million can still be used. Besides, the movie market is booming nowadays. Jackie Chan is a very attractive actor..."

"The film market is booming? Who told you it's booming? Also, do you know what the "Shinjuku Incident" is about?"
