Entertainment: Begin with Damimi as a classmate

Chapter 396: Family dispute on New Year’s Eve!!

At 7 o’clock in the evening, viewers in the north are already looking forward to the Spring Festival Gala broadcast at 7:30.

But friends from the south are either drinking or going out to play cards.

Young people are sitting in front of the computer, waiting for today’s updated episode to be broadcast.

Jiang Feng had New Year’s Eve dinner with his girlfriend and was also watching this year’s Spring Festival Gala. In fact, it doesn’t matter if you don’t like it. As an artist, you have to watch the Spring Festival Gala every year.

Otherwise, they will inevitably be asked what they think of the Spring Festival Gala performance.

If you are asked a question then and you cannot answer it, it will be very embarrassing.

So even if Jiang Feng is from the south, it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t like to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

But as an artist, one who is so popular and popular, you must still watch it, otherwise it will be difficult to explain.

“By the way, how are your reviews and box office of”Flying Swords of Dragon Gate”?”

During the New Year’s Eve dinner, Jiang Feng remembered to ask Liu Yifei.

This movie was released in December, but Jiang Feng never had time to care and ask.

“It’s good, but it’s also controversial.”

Liu Yifei, who was eating vegetables, replied

“Li Lianjie’s salary of 90 million has caused great controversy and has been questioned by many movie fans.”

“It is true that he is a loyal kung fu superstar, and his kung fu movies are indeed impeccable. However, the total investment in a movie is 230 million. In the end, he took away 90 million in salary alone, and the remaining 140 million was used for the salaries and remuneration of other actors. Sustained production is simply not enough”

“It even involves you, saying that if it were you who acted in it, the martial arts scenes might not be as good as his, and tens of millions in salary could be saved for production.”

When Liu Yifei talked about these controversies, Jiang Feng could predict them.

In fact, Xu Ke also thought so at the beginning and asked Jiang Feng to star in this movie.

However, Jiang Feng was not scheduled to star, so he could not star in it.

But looking for Jiang Feng Jiang Feng plays the role of Xichang Yuhuari, not the male lead

“When I was first approached to invest, when I found out that the leading male lead was Li Lianjie, I refused.”

“Because I know that Li Lianjie has developed in the foreign film industry, and the domestic salary must be quite high.”

“With a salary of tens of millions, we are all speechless for such a high salary.”

“A salary of 90 million? Although Li Lianjie’s martial arts drama is very valuable, there is no way I would pay 100 million for it.”

This is Jiang Feng’s style. He will not pay such a high salary to an actor.

To be honest, if Li Lian’s salary is cut off and tens of millions are spared, this martial arts drama can be made even better.

Of course, this is also related to the plot. After all, the crew is indeed not very good. But as the first domestic 3D martial arts film, Mr. Xu is still capable.

“How much is the box office?”

Jiang Feng doesn’t know either. Ask his girlfriend

“What do you think?”

Liu Yifei was not in a hurry to answer, but asked her boyfriend to let him take a closer look.

“If you hadn’t starred in it, the box office of this movie would have been 600 million.”

“If you were cast, judging from your current popularity and reputation as one of the top stars in the mainland,”

“Your box office appeal is second only to Mimi in the Chinese film industry. You are the second actress in the Chinese film industry with box office appeal.”

“So, you starred in this movie, and according to the controversies you just mentioned”

“The box office is between RMB 700 million and RMB 800 million, I guess.”

At the end, Jiang Feng also added that it is not a beautiful sword.

Liu Yifei, who was eating, rolled her eyes at her man:”He is really an analytical emperor.”

“Ha, 712 million.”

Nazha smiled and said the box office of this movie.

“normal.”

This box office data seems normal to Jiang Feng.” Calculated based on the box office of 800 million, this movie is actually just a return on its money.”

“700 million box office, after deducting 350 million and the theater’s share, the remaining 350 million, and about 10% tax and other expenses have to be paid, that is, the remaining 315 million”

“Of this 315 million, if there is still an issuing company, then dividends need to be paid to the issuing company”

“After all, the movie didn’t lose money, but it certainly didn’t cost much.”

“If I hadn’t recommended you to act in this movie, then based on the box office of 600 million, this movie would definitely have lost money in the end.”

In Jiang Feng’s view, this movie is basically a waste of time.

“No way. Aren’t there still Internet copyright fees?”

Yang Mi said,”The Internet copyright fee for this movie is only about 15 million at most, so it won’t make much money.”

“After investing 230 million, I have been busy for more than a year, and I have to worry about not being able to recover the cost by then. Looking at this problem from the perspective of an investor, after investing 230 million for more than a year, I can only earn so much in the end., it is definitely not satisfying, and it is also a useless project.”

Jiang Jiangfeng, who was eating, analyzed the current situation of this movie

“Needless to say, if Zhao Wenzhuo is cast in this movie, he may not even be as good as Ji Lian in terms of acting.”

“The key is that Li Lian’s salary of 90 million yuan is too high, and if it were Zhao Wenzhuo, it would be about 5 million yuan, saving nearly 20 times the salary.”

“It is true that Li Lianjie has box office appeal, but in terms of box office appeal, with director Xu Ke himself, and if he puts some effort into publicity in the later period, he may not be far behind.”

“What’s more, this movie also has you as the female lead, and its box office appeal is not much different.”

“In fact, in China, your current box office appeal is really not much worse than Li Lian’s.”

This is not Jiang Feng’s exaggeration. If it were in his previous life, Liu Yifei would indeed not be able to match Li Lianjie’s box office appeal. Not to mention comparable, even Liu Yifei is a box office talker.

But now it is different. Jiang Feng has given She has laid the groundwork very well.

In addition, her acting skills have indeed improved a lot, and the box office of movies in recent years has been good.

So as far as the current Liu Yifei is concerned, her box office appeal is really not inferior to that of Li Lian Jie, Cheng Long and others.

You must know that most of the people who go to see movies now are young people.

As long as the script is not too bad and the subject matter is acceptable, many people are willing to go see it.

Today’s young people go to see the city Long, most of Li Lianjie’s movies are about emotions, and they are all movies that are watched with the idea of watching one less movie.

Similarly, the same goes for Liu Yifei’s movies, and the audience follows her looks. Went to see

“So if you produced”Flying Swords of Dragon Gate”, how much money would you make?”

Zhao Liying asked

“Just calculate it based on the 50 million special effects of this movie. If you don’t add more special effects costs,”

“Zhao Wenzhuo’s salary is 5 million, Feifei’s salary is 15 million, plus other actors, the director’s salary is 30 million, that is the total salary of 50 million, plus 50 million special effects costs, it is 100 million”

“The crew’s expenses basically don’t cost much, and then there’s the publicity”

“If you spend 20,000 yuan on promotion, the total production cost is about 130 million yuan, and you can finally get a box office of about 500 million yuan.”

“Then from the box office, calculated based on a 40% dividend of 500 million, that is 200 million. After deducting the cost of 130 million, it can earn at least 70 million.”

After Jiang Feng and his girlfriend analyzed this account, they were helpless.

And if you include the Internet copyright fee, it is about 15 million, that is 85 million in income, which is definitely more than the current”Flying Swords of Dragon Gate” Make money.

Even if the current”Flying Swords of Dragon Gate” can make money, it only earns 20 to 30 million, which is not much.

“If we calculate it based on the cost of 230 million, adding an extra 100 million to work on special effects may actually surprise more audiences. In this way, the box office can be at least around 1 billion.”

Jiang Feng had known the people from the 963 special effects team before. Because there is only 50 million special effects cost, there is only so much that can be done. If there is much more, then their special effects team will lose money.

Special effects are only a penny. For the same amount of goods, there is a big difference between you getting 1 million more and getting 1 million less.

“So, Li Lian is probably holding back this movie?”

Zhao Liying asked straightforwardly.

“I can’t say it’s a hindrance. I can only say that from an investor’s point of view, it’s very appropriate to ask Li Lian to act, but the salary is unreasonable.”

“If I were to ask him to star, it would be impossible for me to hire him if I had to pay 90 million.”

“Looking at this issue as an investor, I would not invite”

“But from the perspective of director Xu Ke, if the money is not paid by him but by investors, then Li Lianjie is definitely the most suitable candidate.”

Jiang Feng explained it this way, and they all understood.

Indeed, this issue needs to be viewed from different angles, not from a single angle.

“What if you were to star?”

Nazar looked at her boyfriend expectantly.

“If I come to act, first of all I won’t pay your sister. I don’t want to act if I love acting.”

“Phew~”

All the girls chuckled and looked at Liu Yifei who paused.

“Come on, come on!! You have to have some family disputes on New Year’s Eve, right?”

Liu Yifei bit her lip and asked Jiang Xi if he really wanted to have a fight on New Year’s Eve.

“Hahaha~”

Zhao Liying, Li Yitong, Gulinazha and Dilireba, the four younger sisters, could no longer restrain their laughter. They suddenly had a sinister plot, and there was really no cure for them.

“Wrong, wrong.”

Jiang Feng, who is mean-mouthed, will of course end up apologizing.

“Really, I won’t fight with you tonight.”

Liu Yifei said angrily and threatened, but in the eyes of her sister, her threatening words were actually a joke.

When the time comes, she will definitely be the one begging for mercy, not Cha Feng…
