Chapter 236 Property Purchase

Chapter 236 Property Purchase (1/4)

The Vanishing Bullet...

Produced by Derek Yee and directed by Law Chi-leung.

Luo Zhiliang is a screenwriter by profession. In his early years, he collaborated with Leslie Cheung on "Sex and Zen", "Triple Tap", "Inner Mood"...

Then he wrote and directed his own work again after ten years...

Frankly speaking, "The Vanishing Bullet" is still a passing-level work.

However, the subject matter and story are too closely tied to Sherlock Holmes. From the characters to the posters, everything exudes a strong sense of copycat, including the explosion scenes in the movie, which are exactly the same as those in Sherlock Holmes...

And the promotion focuses on the sex scene between Yang Mi and Xie Tingfeng...

Well... Yang Mi’s fans don’t like this anyway!
The final box office seems to be 1.6 million...

Anyway, since Tse Ting-fung wasn't cast for the second installment of "The Vanishing Murderer," the cast has been downgraded...

It’s obvious that the first film didn’t make much money!
Yang Mi should be very happy - she is working with her idol!
However, when Shen Yan said this, she directly refuted: "Who told you that Xie Tingfeng is my idol?"

“…Didn’t you say that yourself?”

"I'm just cooperating with the promotion!" Yang Mi waved her hand, then said, "Now I only have one idol!"

Shen Yan asked casually: "Who is it?"

Yang Mi said in an exaggerated tone: "You! You are my only idol."

Shen Yan... didn't know how to answer...

Should I say 'I'll give you some benefits!'

What benefits?
Grass fans!
Yang Mi had already changed the subject: "Ji Xiang and I signed a five-play contract... 'The Phone Call' is the first one, what's the second one?"

“…What type of role do you want to play?”

Yang Mi thought for a moment, then said, "I've been playing supporting roles lately, and I want to play a more normal role..."

"Something normal?"

"Well... for example, I was asked to play the mistress in "Love in a Puff"..."

"Little San?"

Shen Yan looked her up and down...

Well, to be honest, Yang Mi's current sexy + sweet style is indeed very suitable for playing the mistress.

After thinking for a moment, he suggested, "How about you play the role of a mistress who goes to the United States to give birth?"

"What?"

Shen Yan said seriously: "Isn't it popular to give birth in the United States recently? Many mistresses of economic criminals give birth to their children in the United States..."

Yang Mi frowned: "Ah...Isn't this topic too sensitive?"

"It's okay, I will make it into a light romantic comedy...it will definitely pass the review..." Shen Yan was very calm about it.

"The love of a mistress?"

"Wait until I finish writing the script, then you'll know!"

"The mistress fell in love with the male protagonist at first sight?"

Shen Yan explained: "It's not love at first sight. Of course, there will be some romance and idealism, but the whole story must be rooted in realism... The male lead must be a man over 35 years old. Whoever you think is suitable, we will use him!"

"Charming uncle? Wu Xiubo!"

"Wu Xiubo can't do that. He's too extravagant...something might happen!"

"Wu Xiubo is a playboy?"

"What are you talking about?"

The two were chatting when Shi Shi came over...

Yang Mi quickly answered: "Talking about the new movie!"

"What new movie?"

“My new movie…”

Shi Shi looked at Shen Yan, who said, "When Sister Mi was not famous, Ji Xiang signed five film contracts with her. It was exploitation of cheap labor. I wanted to write a few good scripts... to make up for it!"

"Exploitation..." Shi Shi remembered something and asked Yang Mi, "Sister Mi, how much will you be paid for five plays?"

Yang Mi rolled her eyes: "...150 million..."

"Ah... this is too low! Why did you agree to this?"

“I wasn’t famous at the time…”

……

Five film contracts.

Ji Xiang said, "It's definitely a movie that can be released! She has more than the second female lead role!"

This condition is actually quite generous... - it can be released, which means it will not be a Category III film or something like that; having the role of the second female lead or above also shows the importance she has received.

Even if it was 150 million for five plays, it was in line with Yang Mi's worth at that time.

However, Yang Mi became famous too quickly. After she signed the contract, "Palace" was broadcast... Coupled with the popularity of "Far Cry", Yang Mi became one of the most popular young actresses.

Her current movie salary should be more than 100 million...

For comparison, Liu Shishi's salary for The Call was 180 million. Normally, Yang Mi's salary for this drama should not be less than 120 million...

But The Call was one of five films in a deal...

This is also the reason why the cost of "The Call" did not exceed 1000 million!

God’s chosen worker!
It's reasonable for Shen Yan to provide her with a few good scripts...

Of course, this good thing refers to the good box office...

"Beijing Meets Seattle", "A Story More Sad Than Sadness", "Your Wedding" and "I'll Wait for You at the End of Time"...

These are all high-grossing movies, but the reputations are not...

However, Yang Mi probably doesn't care about reputation...

Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken on so many bad roles!
……

The film market has entered a period of low tide
As of the 23rd, no movie has grossed over million yuan!

Whether it’s the Hollywood blockbuster “Captain America” or the well-precedented “Love in the City,” including the fan film “The Great Warrior”…

The highest-grossing film was actually "The Abyss," but it only took in 6000 million...

Recently, the most popular topic is "Legend of the White Snake". Yang Zi has been holding various press conferences and releasing various press releases, such as "Yang Zi has been lurking for six years and sincerely strikes out in "Legend of the White Snake"", "Yang Zi has invested heavily in "Legend of the White Snake"...

I don't quite understand the promotion of this movie...

How can we promote Yang Zi?

Don't you know that everyone hates him?
Li Lianjie and Wen Zhang collaborated for the second time;
Directed by Cheng Xiaodong, starring Li Lianjie...

Raymond Lam's first appearance on the mainland big screen...

It’s all about publicity!

Even if you were to smear Zhao Yazhi's "The Legend of the New White Snake", at least it would spark public discussion...

Mainly promoting Yang Zi?

I'm afraid he's not in the right brain!
Maybe... it was Yang Zi's order?

However, this matter has nothing to do with Shen Yan, and he is not going to get involved...

——The National Day holiday has nothing to do with him.

On the 23rd, he went to Inner Mongolia to shoot a commercial for Deluxe, and then he returned to BJ...

"Big Shot" is tentatively scheduled to begin filming on September 9th, with Chongqing being the chosen filming location...

It's also an allusion to Brother Qiang!
Oh, he went back to BJ, mainly to look at houses...

Although the profits from "My Girlhood" have not yet been distributed, Guangguang has already quickly transferred 2850 million yuan of the profits to him...

Adding the dividends from "The Beauty Inside," he now has about 6000 million in cash—he's already used the money from advertising and other things to buy shares in Tencent and Moutai, which he holds for the long term.

Anyway, 6000 million is enough to buy a house!

After looking at Yuanyang Lavie... Shen Yan directly chose Pass...

He doesn't like living in a villa!

And it’s too expensive, starting at 100 million...

This thing is hard to sell even as a second-hand house - I can’t find a buyer!

Ji Xiang simply said: "Or, you can buy Jinmao Mansion. Huang Xiaoming also bought a house there!"

“…Is it open yet?”

“Opening next year…”

"where?"

"That place on the South Third Ring Road... isn't a villa complex, it's the 300-square-meter villa you mentioned!"

"That's fine..." Shen Yan nodded: "Then please keep an eye on it for me..."

"I know their manager, I can get you a discount..."
