Huayu became famous overnight

Chapter 190: Over Million Production

"Online ticket purchase business is a supplement to movie sales channels..."

Xu Ming used his PPT magic weapon as usual and delivered it to a group of middle-aged people over 40 years old.

This trick is old but it really works.

Any project accompanied by PPT suddenly feels like embracing high technology.

In addition, he often utters industry jargon such as granularity and empowerment, which sounds mysterious but impressive.

For a moment, all the representatives present felt dizzy.

Seeing that he had almost fooled the enemy enough, Xu Ming took out the trump card he had prepared this time.

"In order to attract more audiences to consume movies, we at Qiming Entertainment have plans to release seven movies next year, all of which will be starred by me."

Everyone finally heard the areas they could understand.

The energy came instantly.

Seven movies are nothing. The key is that all seven are starred by Xu Ming, which is worth watching.

Given the latter's current box office appeal and the reputation of its content since its debut.

If these seven movies were all above the standard...

hiss~
Everyone took a deep breath, causing the temperature in the office, which was running a heating and air conditioning system, to drop by 0.3 degrees.

This guy is trying to copy Stephen Chow.

That year, Stephen Chow starred in seven of the top fifteen hit films of the year, and also took the top five spots at the annual box office.

Even if Xu Ming could not achieve the same success as the former, but was only slightly short of it, the response he caused was enormous.

After all, there is still a big gap in the size of the Hong Kong film market and the mainland film market.

In a sense, Xu Ming's goal is more difficult.

Even Han Sanping, who came to support Xu Ming, had just learned about this. His brows immediately raised, and he thought to himself.

Would it be good for the market if an actor with the same box office dominance as Stephen Chow emerged in China?
The answer is definitely yes.

In the 1990s, when all Hong Kong actors were heading to Hollywood, the appearance of Stephen Chow activated the second spring of the Hong Kong film market.

Then there was "Infernal Affairs" at the beginning of the century, which was the last ray of afterglow.

"Mr. Xu, it's not that I don't believe it, but can you handle it?" asked the Xingmei representative.

If there are overlapping projects, it will also harm the quality of the film.

"Currently, two movies have been released. One is "The Laughing Man" starring me and my master, and the other is "Dear" directed by Zhang."

"As for the prospects of these two films, I don't think I need to say more, right?" Xu Ming said with a smile.

The crowd shook their heads.

That's true. "Big Laugh in the Rivers and Lakes" has two great comedians, Uncle Benshan and Xu Ming, so the basic base is stable.

As for "Dear", Director Zhang + Gong Li are already a king bomb, not to mention the addition of the popular newcomer Xu Ming.

"'Fleeting Time', directed by Guo Fan and written by me, is about to be completed. It can be regarded as a sequel to the youth series after 'So Young'."

"The filming of 'Nobody', a collaboration between me, Ning Hao and Jiang Wen, will start before the end of the year. That will be the fourth film."

"That means we only need to shoot three more films before the second half of next year."

Xu Ming said it lightly, but it is not that easy to shoot three movies in the first half of the year.

But everyone just likes to eat the pie in the sky.

Moreover, Xu Ming has already laid out half of the pie, and any one of the four movies is guaranteed to be a box office hit.

The only thing that disappointed everyone was the lack of a big production.

This is the Chinese blockbuster that Han Sanping has always wanted.

How could Xu Ming not know what these people were thinking? He raised his lips and said, "In addition, I plan to make a war film with a main theme. The total investment is expected to be over 100 million yuan."

"If you are interested, we can discuss it in detail later."

Well, now we have a blockbuster movie.

There is also a film project that the other party is collaborating with Cheng Xiaodong, which everyone has heard a little about.

So, there are six, one more missing. But looking at Xu Ming's expression, he didn't seem to have any intention of continuing to reveal.

"Since we are sitting here, we believe in Mr. Xu's ability. We, Wanda, would like to express our willingness to actively cooperate with the establishment of your online ticket purchasing platform." The Wanda representative said in a deep voice.

Even without the relationship with Jingtian, they still made a lot of money following Xu Ming, so they would naturally support him to the end.

Xingmei was not vague and followed immediately.

The representative of China Film Group did not speak, mainly because the company's chairman was still in office and it was not his turn to speak.

"You can give it a try first. If the effect is good, we will hold a special symposium to promote it."

If Han Sanping doesn't make a move, it's fine, but when he does, it's a big move.

With the endorsement of China Film, the future development prospects of Guangying Ticketing Network can be imagined.

The representatives of Penguin and Sohu looked at each other and decided that it was a good idea to cooperate with Xu Mingzhen.

The saying that it is easier to get things done if you have someone in the court is never out of date.

"Tell me in detail what your plan is for that military action film," Han Sanping continued.

He is not very interested in the so-called light and shadow ticket purchasing network. To put it bluntly, it is just a supplement to the sales channel and has no fundamental impact.

On the contrary, the blockbuster that Xu Ming was going to make was more to his liking.

The others pricked up their ears.

Xu Ming pondered and said, "I'll talk to you alone about this later."

"Yeah." Han Sanping understood.

There are so many people here, it's really inconvenient.

The others were startled and looked at each other suspiciously.

Xu Ming's move was obviously to keep it secret. He was just guarding against one party in the conference room. They obviously didn't think he was guarding against themselves.

Sigh over the contract details.

Xu Ming left the conference room to Tang Sheng to take care of the signing matters, and he took Han Sanping to his office.

Pour the tea.

"Speaking of whether this movie can be made, I would like to ask you to help contact the Bayi Film Studio." Xu Ming said.

"August 1 Film Studio? Are you planning to adapt their movie?"

Han Sanping is indeed a senior producer, and he can tell the whole picture from just a small part.

"Yes, you have seen "Lin Hai Xue Yuan", right? I plan to remake this segment from "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy." Xu Ming said.

"That's easy. Who do you want to take the photo?" Han Sanping asked.

For such a big project, just any director will not be enough. It has to be at least a famous director so that the investors can rest assured to hand over the money.

"Xu Ke."

Xu Ming gave an unexpected answer.

Han Sanping was surprised: "Him? He is very close to Bona now, can he agree?"

"The first choice is Director Xu Ke. This movie will use a lot of special effects, and he should be interested. Of course, if he is not willing, there is still time to consider other directors." Xu Ming said.

Xu Ke can be considered as one of the first domestic directors to come into contact with and bet on special effects.

A special effects studio was established as early as the 1990s.

The "Shu Shan Zhuan" he directed is still a benchmark for special effects movies.

Look at the fighting spirit turning into horses in later generations, wow.

"Will there be enough time?" Han Sanping asked.

Normally, it is normal for such a large-scale production with a budget of over 100 million yuan to take three to five years to prepare, but the other party obviously wants to release it next year.

There is very little time left for preparation and filming.

"If you are willing to spend money, you will have time."

Xu Ming shrugged his shoulders. He made this movie with the intention of not making any money, since he wasn't the one providing the bulk of the funds anyway.
