Chapter 56: Unrelated to Betrayal
Chen Lin is very optimistic about Hu Ge.
This is a consensus in the circle. The original invitation from the character of Ke Jingteng in "Those Years" was given to Hu Ge.
Unfortunately, Tang Ren has always been watching Hu Ge very tightly.
Even if I can't let him go further, I will never let other companies make him famous!
It actually offered 150,000 yuan, and it still required an 8% box office share!
Because of this incident, coupled with Lin Gou's incident, Chen Lin completely formed a bond with Tang Ren.
Inviting Hu Ge to play Tian Yin in "The Monster Hunter" was not Chen Lin's idea, but director Xu Chengyi's idea.
In addition, at that time, Deng Chao's "Breakup Master" invited Gulinaza, and it simply thawed.
After all, Tang Ren has gone from a production company with the ability to build TV series to a company that relies on artists to live on dividends.
"Step by Step", "Xuanyuan Sword" and "Strange Love in the Wind" did not achieve the expected results. Tang Ren's creativity has been questioned, especially in the past two years, with almost no major moves.
After finally filming "The Ming Yue of Qin" and "The Fairy Sword and Five Clouds" I was scolded to death, and the ratings did not even reach O.7!
Mango TV has decided to delete the episodes.
Tang Ren is now becoming more and more like Rong Xinda before. He can't win newcomers, but he is desperately trying to keep the old man.
Hu Ge, who exists as an elder in Tangren Town, has long been remembered by many companies, including Huayi and Guanghui.
Unfortunately, Lao Hu was determined to stay in Tang Ren.
Then, completely fell into a wasted situation.
Since becoming popular in "Sword of Fairy 1", becoming one of the four big and small students, "Sword of Fairy 3" became popular again and disappeared.
Although he has acted in "The Revolution of 1911" and "Myth" in those years, he has never proved himself on the big screen, and Lao Hu is always a TV star!
Not to mention Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, Liu Huohua and others, even the new generation Jing Bairan, Li Yifeng, and Yang Yang have driven him away.
"Lao Hu, come to our studio, I will help you tailor three movies..."
Zhao Liying offered an invitation, and Chen Lin hurriedly followed.
Only when a couple works together can they do better if they are poaching people.
"But Sister Cai is really nice to me, and Tang Ren is also circling around me, so I really can't speak."
Hu Ge thought about it for a long time but still refused Chen Lin's proposal: "Forget it, I'm doing well now!"
"Chen Kun, Zhou Xun was in Rong Xinda back then, and Li Shaohong was also good to them, so they chose to leave. Why? It has nothing to do with betrayal, but only considers the future!"
Chen Lin looked at Lao Hu seriously: "After "The Monster Hunt", your value will definitely be different. In addition, "Langzhi List", I can conclude that Tang Ren can no longer satisfy you. If you want to leave Tang Ren, I can help at any time!"
Hu Ge nodded without saying anything about his career.
The golden period of a male actor's career is very long, and it is the golden period between the ages of twenty and fifty.
As an actor with mature acting skills, Hu Ge has a promising future.
...
Since the release of "Monster Hunt", it has successively set new box office records for domestic movies, and even the People's Daily has come to join in the fun: "Industry insiders believe that the film has created a new benchmark for domestic movies in terms of art, industry and marketing!"
Although I am very grateful for the praise of the People's Daily, Chen Lin still wanted to complain, "It's not like this to get together with the hot spots!"
Roadshows are mainly concentrated in small cities in second- and third-tier cities, and publicity must be concentrated in large cities in first-tier cities.
This is the promotional routine set by "Monster Hunt".
They do the same.
As a city with a large banknote, the Magic City is also the hometown of Lao Hu.
Many fans cried and shouted the name of "Hu Ge", which made Hu Ge a little embarrassed.
After all, he is already thirty-three!
"Director Chen and President Jiang are at ease this time? I heard that you often drink together before the movie was released, and are worried that the box office will not meet expectations?"
The host is still Zhu Zhen.
By the way, Zhu Zhen really likes to host some activities that are not in this profession.
“…Thanks to the audience for supporting Monster Hunt”
Chen Lin and Jiang Zhiqiang looked at each other, and finally General Jiang came out: "I have voted for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Hero", but to be honest, this time "Monster Hunt" is really unsure. On the one hand, it is a brand new IP, and on the other hand, Xu Chengyi, the director of "Monster Hunt", is not as well known as Ang Lee and Zhang Yimou."
"Let me talk about it later,"
Chen Lin stood up: "Actually, it is difficult to make a comeback in the theme of "The Monster Hunt". I remember that there was a movie called "Old Master" in the past, which was very similar to this one, both of which were real people and special effects. Unfortunately, I lost money. So, Mr. Jiang used "The Monster Hunt" to find investment, and was destined to not attract a few friends. I met Dong Zijian when filming "Riding the Wind and Waves". After his introduction, I learned about this drama."
"Why do I dare to invest? It's entirely because of director Xu Chengyi! Director Xu Chengyi once directed "Monster Slides! So, he is very good at family-style movies like "Monster Hunt"!"
"I just didn't expect that something happened during the filming. Mr. Jiang was very tough and I was not afraid. I simply found the male lead again and we reshoot it!"
"Then the investment doubled! With the promotion, we had a real cost of 500 million! At that time, Mr. Jiang said to me: 'If this drama is lost, I guess I may not invest in movies in the past five years.'"
"I didn't say anything at the time. Actually, from the bottom of my heart, I still think that a movie like "The Monster Hunt" should be able to get a box office of more than 1.5 billion."
"On the first day of the release, Mr. Jiang and Director Xu, the three of us were guarding the office, and no one spoke. The box office exceeded 100 million in 5 hours, and we knew it was done!"
"I really thank the actors who participated in this movie, especially Tang Wei and Yao Chen who starred in a friendly manner, especially Sister Tang Wei. They came twice and were not charged with the money!"
"Thank you more for your support. You are really great. Without you, this "Monster Hunt" will definitely be ruined."
When it comes to sensationalism, Jiang Zhiqiang is comparable to Chen Lin, and a few words warm up the atmosphere on the scene.
"I heard that "The Monster Hunt" is a trilogy, so when will we see the two of them?"
Zhu Zhen asked questions carefully according to the process.
"It's soon. We should start the next movie next year and we will meet you in 2018!"
Jiang Zhiqiang replied.
After all, the copyright of "Monster Hunt" belongs to him and Xu Chengyi.
...
The promotion of the Magic City Station ended, and Chen Lin did not participate in the subsequent promotion.
After all, he is just one of the investors, and it is annoying to show up too much.
As of July 28, the box office of "Monster Hunt" which was released for 12 days has successfully exceeded 200 million yuan, with a steady decline, and it seems to be on the verge of exceeding 2.8 billion yuan.
As the box office rose, some unharmonious voices began to emerge from various places.
In fact, in the rating systems of major movie websites, the review of "Monster Hunt" is not too high.
Many viewers questioned, "What kind of fucking movie can the box office reach 200 million?"
Many netizens of good things even voted online, "Do you think "The Monster Hunt" has a box office of 200 million yuan?"
Chen Lin looked at the bad reviews and bad reviews that suddenly appeared on the Internet, but he knew very well. It was obvious that it was because "The Monster Hunt" was too powerful and blocked the way!
Chapter completed!
