"Several film companies are interested in casting you, and Antai has received several film offers today..."

Jiang Zhiqiang threw the cigar to Wu Xiaozu, then casually placed a stack of information in front of Wu Xiaozu, and said jokingly, "Now that you are in the spotlight, you can make up your own mind about what to do. Anyway, you like to cause trouble."

Wu Xiaozu ignored these film appointments.

A few months ago, after his first movie "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" became a hit at the box office, many film producers and film companies offered him film contracts. How could he escape this time?

People suffer, and handsome people are tired.

A director like Wu Xiaozu who is handsome and can make money will naturally be remembered even more.

Wu Xiaozu's two movies in a row were hits, and the last one earned 10.12 million, which was enough to enter the top 30 in the box office list in 1986.

If this is just luck, then the huge sales of "The Birth of a Prefix" is undoubtedly enough to prove Wu Xiaozu's strength.

When you see something high, you worship it; when you see something low, you step on it.

This is the entertainment industry!

Wu Yusen was like this, and Wu Xiaozu couldn't escape either.

Some people may wonder, since both movies have been successful, why should we seek investment? Isn’t it good to produce independently?

Of course it’s not good!

First of all, movies are a business. There are risks in doing business, and the ratio of investment and return is an issue that needs to be considered. Financing filming is the most common phenomenon in the entertainment industry.

Wu Xiaozu would not be stupid enough to invest in filming alone. Borrowing a chicken to lay eggs has always been his principled insistence.

The second point is that there is no place for eating alone in the entertainment industry. The movie "The Birth of a Prefix" was a hit, and it was not just Antai and 1024 that had the meat. The real big bosses were Debao and Princess Jin.

If "The Birth of a Prefix" doesn't share the meat with De Bao and Princess Jin this time, do you really think that this movie will easily beat "Yungai Yuntian"?

That’s Zhou Runfa! That’s Jiahe Cinema!

Now Fa Ge's salary alone exceeds 3 million! This is enough to prove his box office appeal.

Wu Xiaozu's little tricks are just a back-up plan, but Debao and Princess Jin's escort is the real trend.

In this industry, many times it doesn’t mean that you will be fine if you don’t provoke others. Sometimes, just by making money, you are provoking them, because you make them jealous.

Let’s take a look at how the filmmakers in the entertainment industry survive.

Tsui Hark, Wu Yusen, Zeng Zhiwei, including later Chen Kexin, Du Dapao, Liu Weiyi... everyone's deeds have a sense of legend.

But Wu Yusen is still fighting with Tsui Hark honestly now, while helplessly changing the script.

Where is Tsui Hark?

He also asked his grandfather to tell his grandmother about seeking investment.

Reborn people are no better than them at this point. Filmmakers are born to belong to "Party B" of heaven!

When you are not qualified to break through the obstruction of the lush leaves and welcome the sunshine independently, the best way is to learn the Lingxiao flower.

The three giants not only control the theater resources at this time, but you will understand if you look at the box office trend of "The Birth of a Prefix".

Compared with the real three major theater chains, Antai's patchwork of small theaters are really shabby.

Without Debao, "The Birth of a Prefix" would not have contributed such an astonishing box office in its early stages.

Without Princess Jin, the box office of this movie would not have skyrocketed. In addition, the resources of the cast and crew are also in their hands.

Even if Wu Xiaozu made a movie, it might not be as good as Huang Baiming gathering a few big stars to make a family-friendly "Happy Event".

Nowadays, many of Hong Kong's biggest stars have signed film contracts with film companies.

Zhou Runfa's film contract was signed at New Art City. Zhang Guoyi also signed a film contract with the film studio. Even Andy Lau's film contract was potentially with the Yi Neng Film Company of his manager Zhang Guozhong.

Star resources are the most important resources for film shooting.

Many people in later generations saw that when some great directors they admired blindly ignored a group of actors who were very suitable for the roles when selecting actors, they chose a group of stars instead.

When filming a blockbuster film, Wu Xiaozu would also choose stars who have their own box office. How can Wang Qianyuan, Qin Ritian, and Zhang Yi compare with Huang 173 in terms of box office appeal? How can they compare with traffic stars?

In the entertainment industry, fame is a very important resource.

For a simple-minded person like Wu Xiaozu, of course he wants to take advantage of the advantages, and he also wants to take advantage of the advantages he creates when there are no advantages.

Taking advantage is engraved in the blood of 1024 Locomotive Company.

…

New Art City.

"Wu Xiaozu?"

Because it was dark, a braised egg stood by the window and muttered to himself.

"You want to hire him to make a movie?"

Zeng Zhiwei sat on the sofa, his whole body immersed in it, his calves touching the ground with his toes, "This guy has two successful movies in a row, he is so sharp. If you cast him in a movie, you can make money!"

"That's right, even a new rock band called Beyond that has recently emerged in the music industry has benefited from his movie. Several of the interludes are very popular in the music industry."

On another sofa, Teddy Robin swayed with his feet in the air, smiling frankly, "Now that he has two successful movies in a row, there is no reason why he shouldn't praise his superiors and suppress his inferiors."

The two people, one shorter and the other even shorter, felt like they wanted to compete with God.

Today, there are basically only three shareholders left in Xinyi City: Mecca, Huang Baiming and Ishida. Zeng Zhiwei has already defected to Sanmao, and Teddy Luobin just ignores the "government" and lets the three of them do whatever they want.

Xinyi City is like many successful companies. It is not difficult to share the joys and sorrows because everyone has nothing but passion.

But with the uneven distribution of benefits, this passion will gradually be cooled by the benefits.

Many people say that the interests of Xinyi City are unevenly distributed. This is indeed correct.

But if the distribution of the three people is truly even, will they definitely go on?

the answer is negative!

If the three shareholders of Mecca, Huang Baiming and Ishida really had equal interests, they would probably be worse than they are now.

Since ancient times, there has been no problem of uneven benefits.

Mecca intends to make a big-budget movie. He has always believed that big production, big casts, and big lineups are the way forward for New Art City.

Ishida recently produced "A Better Tomorrow 2" with Tsui Hark, while Huang Baiming continued his route of small and medium-sized comedy productions. The three people's creative concepts and business philosophies are fundamentally different.

Mecca admired Wu Xiaozu very much.

He believes that Wu Xiaozu's group acting ability is very strong. Even in the Hong Kong film industry, many people can't compare to the wonderful group acting shown in "The Birth of a Prefix", and it is difficult to pick up soap.

This kind of group play is also very suitable for large-scale commercial productions.

However, one thing that makes Mecca hesitate is that Wu Xiaozu's film style is too obvious. From "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" to "The Birth of a Prefix", they all have obvious personal imprints.

A director whose personal style is too obvious is not a compliment for a large-scale commercial film.

Thinking about the name of Wu Xiaozu's new wave, Mecca thought it was "Niwai".

It's a pity that a very good commercial director has to join the new wave team -

Mecca is indecisive without mentioning it.

Many people actually regarded Wu Xiaozu as a piece of cake and couldn't wait to take a bite.

The previous item thirteen is not the first, nor will it be the last.

Even Deng Guangrong had this idea.
