Chapter 804: Afraid of not being able to kill her
"Everything is difficult, and I'm mentally prepared for failure. Over the years, I've made a lot of money by investing in movies and TV series with you. I'll just play with TV series, and even if I fail, I won't lose much money." Da Tiantian looked indifferent.
At that time, she entered the entertainment industry to pursue her dream with a large amount of start-up capital.
Her family members told her to go home if she lost all her money.
As a result, I made more and more money and didn't lose anything at all. I was so worried.
Besides, she is not stupid. The first work after she changes her job to behind the scenes will definitely be a TV series. The cost will be controlled between tens of millions and 100 million yuan. If there is a loss, it is a loss. She really doesn't care about this loss.
Li Yu also knew how wealthy Da Tiantian was now.
He didn't persuade at all.
He invested in Liu Heping even though he knew he would lose money.
If you have a lot of money, it's okay to make a loss and do something that you think is meaningful, as long as you are happy.
He just reminded Da Tiantian: "If you really want to become a producer, I suggest you fire a bunch of idiots in your company and recruit some real talents in the industry to serve as your advisors. With them around, you won't be in a rush when you encounter difficulties."
Da Tiantian nodded seriously: "I already know."
We must poach people ruthlessly.
In her previous life, she was able to get Cheng Long and the national master to be directors and support her.
This time, it's just to recruit some talents, which is a drop in the bucket compared to the money spent on hiring Master Cheng Long. The rich Da Tiantian won't even blink an eye.
This time, Li Yu did not write a script for Da Tiantian, nor did he recommend any novels or comics with adaptation potential to her.
If you want to be a producer behind the scenes, you must do it yourself.
If Li Yu helped her, wouldn't it still be Li Yu who was manipulating everything behind the scenes?
I guess Da Tiantian thought the same, so she didn't ask Li Yu.
……
A week after the May Day holiday, "The Wandering Earth" is still making inroads, with a daily box office of 200 to 300 million yuan, while "Us and Them", which was so ugly that it angered the public, has died down and is completely a flop.
This movie, which last made billion yuan at the box office in the mainland market, now can't even reach 10 billion yuan. How tragic!
However, the cost of this movie itself is not high. It is said to be 70 million, but the actual cost may be less than 70 million.
With a growth of 70 million, the box office is now making a lot of money.
It’s just that the producers and the director of this film are not happy.
They originally had the opportunity to earn more, but they ended up blocking their own path.
"The Wandering Earth" has become a foregone conclusion for Li Yu.
He is now planning to release "Mulan" starring Liu Yifei at the end of June.
"The Wandering Earth" was released on May 1st. Even if it got an overtime card and could be released for two to three months, it would be a spent force by the end of June. It would not affect "Mulan" and there would be no situation of one family fighting against one's own.
At the end of June, students have just taken the college entrance examination and their summer vacation life has begun. High school and college students are also the target audience.
In conclusion, it is good for "Mulan" to be released at the end of June.
However, there are also many competitors in the summer vacation period at the end of June, more than the May Day period.
Li Yu knows that the end of June is a good time to release movies, and his peers in the industry must know this too. Everyone is not stupid. According to the information Li Yu has obtained so far, the following movies are scheduled to be released during this summer vacation.
"Animal World" is directed by Han Ting and co-starred by Li Yifeng and others. The film is adapted from the work "Gambling Apocalypse" by the Sakura Country cartoonist Nobuyuki Fukumoto. It is said that it is also a 3D movie.
"Magic Circus", directed by Tony Bancroft. It is worth mentioning that this is the director of the 98 Deshini animated version.
"Mulan" directed by Cao Qing and starring Liu Yifei failed to compete head-on with Deshini's live-action version of "Mulan", but instead competed with the director of the animated version. It's really a coincidence.
"Evil Never Dies", this movie is really great, it is the final chapter of the Republic of China trilogy written and directed by Jiang Wen.
Jiang Wen is really an amazing director, especially his lines, which are all in Chinese.
In many cases, translation is needed so that the audience can understand it.
This is a truly genius director.
The former movie "The Sun Also Rises" was badly criticized when it was first released, and it only had a score of on DouMiao.
As time goes by, the score of "The Sun Also Rises" has now risen to around eight.
In Jiang Wen's own words, you can say you don't understand, but you can't say you didn't see it. One day you will definitely understand. When you understand that day, you will feel that Jiang has really done me justice.
Facts have proved that as they grow older, many movie fans really understand and say that Lao Jiang really deserves them.
It is in stark contrast to Director Chen.
It was said that people would understand it after ten years, but it’s been more than ten years and people still can’t understand it, and the ratings haven’t gone up. So whose problem is it?
Jiang Wen is very powerful, but Li Yu and Cao Qing are not afraid of him at all.
Because Jiang Wen's films are very stable and good, they are not friendly to people who are new to Jiang-style films and they can't understand them at all.
Can I bring an interpreter into the theater?
Who is so rich to have such conditions?
Therefore, Jiang Wen's movies were a commercial failure. They rarely made money, and losses were the norm.
Xu Ke’s “Detective Dee: The Four Heavenly Kings” is the third film in the Detective Dee series.
Tsui Hark is an alternative. He started playing with special effects many years ago and was one of the earliest directors in Hong Kong to do so, but his films failed miserably.
He has found the right path in recent years. Both Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame and Detective Dee: The Mystery of the Phantom Flame have a lot of special effects. In this Detective Dee: The Four Heavenly Kings, he went even crazier and even used illusions.
"Curse of Wind and Rain" and "Charlie IX", "A Good Show" written and directed by Huang Bo, "The Meg" starred by Li Binbin in Hollywood, and "Love Apartment" movie version of "Grave Robber Apartment".
These movies were all released during the summer vacation.
The competition for this year's summer vacation can be said to be quite fierce.
There are more films than the May Day schedule, including not only those from big domestic directors, but also Hollywood films.
Liu Yifei and Cao Qing were somewhat worried when they learned about potential competitors from Li Yu.
There are too many opponents and many strong enemies. They have never fought such a tough battle in their lives.
Especially Liu Yifei, she felt that Li Yu really thought highly of her.
Her last movie was Eternal Love, which was a complete flop.
The previous movie "The Richest Tomato" was a success, but it was not her who took the leading role, but Shen Teng.
After watching the movie, people will think Shen Teng is awesome. They won’t think she is awesome, they will just think she is pretty.
She was the one who carried the show alone in "Mulan". She had no confidence in carrying a movie alone. Li Yu specially arranged a schedule for her with many strong competitors. Was he serious? Was he afraid that he could not defeat her?
