From collapsed house idol to entertainment superstar

Ding Zhi and his Jiuyao Media have actually been creating a myth of using small things to achieve great things over the years since their establishment.

The one that pushed this trend to its peak was undoubtedly "The God of Medicine" at the beginning of this year.

According to industry practice, it will take at least 8 months or even more than a year for the film studio to receive the full box office share, but now some of the money from "The God of Medicine" has begun to flow back.

Nowadays, the bill-sharing model for theater movies is actually relatively clear.

After deducting 5% of the special funds for the film industry and paying a 3.3% special business tax, of the remaining net box office, theater chains and movie theaters together share 57%, and the remaining 43% is shared by the film producers and distributors.

As for the film "The God of Medicine", Jiuyao Media, as the largest main investor, exclusively accounted for 39.26% of the net box office, which is nearly 1.5 billion in revenue.

The pre-production cost of this film was only 15 million. Even if Ding Zhi's own sky-high salary is included, as well as the costs and resources during the promotion period, the total amount is less than 100 million.

With a cost of less than 100 million, the net income was 1.5 billion.

This crazy speed of making money is enough to make many small and medium-sized media companies with similar media volume as Jiuyao Media feel envious.

Not to mention the subsequent accumulated distribution of "The Tuner", as well as overseas distribution and copyright income.

This is also the reason why Ding Zhi has focused on movies in the past year.

The TV series has produced several hits, which may have a long-tail effect in the long term in terms of subsequent copyrights, but in the short term, A Zhi will definitely not be able to compare with the revenue from a big hit movie.

However, even so, Jiuyao Media has always been a "small-capacity operation". Whether it is "The God of Medicine", "The Tuner" or other projects, the actual investment cost is small.

Although it is enviable to have a small and broad mind, one should not only look at the bright side when looking at a problem.

So far, Jiuyao Media has not produced a commercial production in the true sense.

In fact, this will also affect the public and even industry insiders to a certain extent. They feel that Jiuyao Media is far behind the so-called large-scale companies.

In fact, this is also a very normal thing.

Just like in reality, the era of commercial blockbusters in the domestic film market was ushered in by "Hero", which received mixed reviews.

In fact, Ding Zhi has also appeared in so-called big-budget movies, such as "Eight Hundred" and "Cold War 2" when he first came here, and "Operation Red Sea" two years ago, which are all in a more traditional sense.

"Blockbuster".

And now Ding Zhi is filming "Jian Yu Jiang Hu", which is advertised as a top blockbuster with an investment of over 100 million. In fact, Ding Zhi, who has real directing experience, thinks that the cost is actually not too high.

But it does have one standard feature of a blockbuster film, that is, it has attracted a lot of stars to join the film.

Apart from Ding Zhi, who is one of the top actors in the film, Wang Xueqi, who plays the big boss in the film, Wheel King, is a well-known actor in China, and Lei Bin, one of the four killers, actually has a pretty good background, his name is Ran Shengxu.

He was once the "King of Idol Dramas" and the youngest winner of the Golden Wave Award for Best Actor in three major domestic films.

Speaking of which, this Ran Shengxu also barely interacted with Ding Zhi.

That intersection was the movie "Eight Hundred" filmed five or six years ago.

Ding Zhi played the role of a knife who was affectionate and righteous, and was even called "the only memory point in South Bank".

Ran Shengxu, the former Jin Bo actor, plays a Japanese-speaking villain who was hanged from a street lamp by the people on the south bank because he cursed in Japanese at the Japanese soldiers on the north bank.

This confusing plot of the world was completely deleted before it was released, and not even one second of the movie star Jin Bo was shown.

In fact, when filming "Eight Hundred", Ding Zhi's negative influence had not been completely eliminated, and he was regarded as a minor in the eyes of others, while Ran Shengxu was still regarded as the king of idol dramas at that time.

Compared with now, it was a completely different situation.

Ding Zhi cannot be said to be in the limelight now, but there is a vague tendency to become a new star in the industry.

Ran Shengxu, the Jinbo actor, is in an embarrassing situation. He has even had no works for nearly three to five years. He can only let the audience know about this actor by occasionally appearing in some variety shows or having scandalous romances with some pretty girls.

I haven’t withdrawn from the circle yet.

It is worth mentioning that Ran Shengxu, as his name suggests, also belongs to the sequence of ancient artillery kings.

That is to say, when it was most popular, it did not catch up with the self-media era in which a keyboard can be used to post an entire short essay on a certain blog. Otherwise, the house would probably collapse.

Zou Yutong's best friend Song Feiran seems to have had a relationship with this person.

In fact, Ding Zhi and Zou Yutong are not very familiar with the people in their circle of best friends, and the one they are most familiar with is Miss Zou's assistant, Jingjing.

After hearing the rumor that time, Ding Zhi rarely became interested in gossip, so he asked Miss Zou a few questions, and received a positive reply.

At that time, Zou Yutong was still very distressed and complained to Ding Zhi about his love-minded hatred of marrying his best friend, and even nine cows couldn't get him back.

You must know that the age difference between the two is 16 years. They are almost in an "uncle-nephew relationship". It can only be said that they are quite good in the industry.

After that, it seemed that they were separated, and the period lasted only a few months.

So why is it said that the pair of Ding Zhi and Zou Yutong can be called a clean slate in the entertainment industry.

After all, let alone those who are unfamiliar with them, the relationship between men and women among the people around them is actually quite interesting.

Even before Little Buddha met Niu Niu and adopted him, he had a mess of names like "Xiaohong", "Huahua" and "Xiaobei" in his address book. He was commonly known as a sea dog.

And this Jin Bo actor, who had some indirect connections with Ding Zhi or Miss Zou, was extremely irritable during this period of time.

"I know! I've been on the set these days and haven't gone out! Okay?"

At this time, Ran Shengxu had just finished taking a shower, with his upper body naked, holding a mobile phone in his hand, and said with a somewhat impatient tone.

"This film is the work of director Wu Qishang. As you know, it is not easy for us to get this role. Don't let anything happen!"

The agent on the other end of the phone still seemed a little worried.

Regardless of this guy's reputation in the industry, having been Ran Shengxu's manager for so many years, he knows his true character.

His business ability is pretty good, but he's a bit unclear when it comes to women.

In fact, this is also related to the previous culture of the entertainment circle in southern Fujian Province.

It is said that today’s domestic entertainment is rotten and housing collapse is a frequent occurrence.

In fact, when it comes to money worship, it has to be Hong Kong Entertainment in the past, which was a circle that took the concept of laughing at the poor but not laughing at prostitution to the extreme.

In terms of dirtiness, it has to be the Fujian circle.

There is really nothing you can't think of, there is nothing they can't do, such as certain athletes who have been exposed, in fact, in a sense, it is their normal state.

Of course, this time and that time.

Over the years, Ran Shengxu has been able to go from being the idol star king to Jinbo actor, but now he is in the cold water. In addition to some bad luck, and it also happens that some actors in Fujian Province are not as popular as before, this person also has a good reputation in women.

It's always unclear what the relationship is.

In other words, the risk level is somewhat high.

"What a lie! When I came here, I said this film was directed by Wu Qishang, but a while ago it turned out to be Su Zhao again. Can this still be the same?"

There was some dissatisfaction in Ran Shengxu's tone.

In fact, he would gladly accept this drama before. A large part of the reason is that the director of this drama was Wu Qishang.

Not to mention that Director Wu Da has not released a new film for many years, but the shadow of the famous tree and the banner of Wu Qishang are actually more attractive to some actors than Ding Zhi.

The reason is very simple, because Ding Zhi is the leading actor, and other actors can only serve as foils at best, which is a competitive relationship.

In terms of qualifications and the influence of past works, the director of Wuhan University is ranked in the first echelon in China, so he is naturally more attractive than Ding Zhi, who "steals the limelight".

"My Brother Xu! I don't want to be obedient anymore. Now it's hard for us to get roles as protagonists. Now the role of Lei Bin in "Jian Yu Jiang Hu" is already the most cost-effective role we can get.

, is it possible that you still want to compete with Ding Zhi for the leading role?"

Obviously, the agent's patience is disappearing step by step, and his words are inevitably pungent.

Ran Shengxu also fell silent when he heard this, and was not directly aroused like before.

A few years ago, when Ran Shengxu was at his most popular, it is estimated that "Baibei!" would have popped up around this time.

In fact, the relationship between most artists and their managers is very subtle, especially when many artists are prosperous and when they are lonely, the way they get along will be very different.

Otherwise, the people who can stab you most are the people around you.

Although Ran Shengxu did not reply, when the agent mentioned the name "Ding Zhi", Ran Shengxu narrowed his eyes and the displeasure on his face was almost visible to the naked eye.

But Ding Zhi really didn't offend him.

As the saying goes, everyone is most afraid of comparison.

As the hottest actor today, everyone knows that Ding Zhi rose to prominence through his role as a knife in "Eight Hundred" a few years ago.

Coincidentally, Ran Shengxu seems to have gradually lost his position in the industry since all his scenes in "Eight Hundred" were deleted, to the point where he now has to work hard to win even a supporting role in a movie.

At the time, I didn't think it was anything, but now it seems that Ding Zhi's rise is a reflection of his own loneliness.

If you want to say how much you hate Ding Zhi, you really don't. After all, there is no contradiction.

But I am unhappy, very unhappy, and it is still the kind of unhappiness that cannot be extinguished.

It's okay if you don't think about this. Once you think about it, it's like the cockroaches in the house. Even if you kill one or two, two or three will still come out relentlessly.

After dealing with the agent impatiently, Ran Shengxu put his hands behind his head and leaned on the bed, listening to the sound of running water in the bathroom.

After a while, a pretty young girl walked out of the room. Who else could it be if she wasn't Zhang Yiren?

"Brother Xu! What's wrong! Why did I hear you seem to be quarreling just now!"

Ran Shengxu narrowed his eyes when he saw Zhang Yiren coming out wearing a layer of gauze with steam still coming out of her body.

He stood up with a smile.

"No! I discussed something with my agent. It's nothing. Have you washed it?"

"Well, that's it."

Zhang Yiren lowered her head in shame and joy, with a faint blush appearing on her face.

Ran Shengxu couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva, shouting "goblin" in his heart.

After all, they are foxes of thousands of years, so why are they playing in a fairy tale?

With Ran Shengxu's cultivation in the artillery field, he could naturally tell that this seemingly shy girl in front of him was actually very powerful!

To put it simply, after the two of them got off the set, they drove many kilometers to find this room. It’s hard to say who hooked up with whom in the beginning.

Everyone gets what they need!

Ran Shengxu is quite confident about this. To say that he can still play so freely at nearly forty years old, aside from the bonus of fame, he actually has a good skin and maintains a figure as good as a second-year-old.

Just like a young guy in his thirties.

Ran Shengxu took a deep breath, strode forward, and pulled Zhang Yiren vigorously for the first time.

If you like to play this tune, then I will play with you!

"ah!"

Zhang Yiren seemed to be startled, both surprised and happy, with a slightly trembling voice that made Ran Shengxu's bones feel numb.

...

After about 5 minutes, the room returned to calm.

Zhang Yiren hugged Ran Shengxu's arm, a flash of disappointment briefly flashed in her eyes.

But it doesn't matter, this is just an appetizer.

Next comes the text.

Zhang Yiren gently placed her fingers on Ran Shengxu's eyebrows and rubbed them gently.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Ran Shengxu asked inexplicably.

"Are you happy?"

Zhang Yiren paused and said, "I could feel that you were very unhappy just now."

Ran Shengxu raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling a little warm in his heart.

This is the great thing about Zhang Yiren. In fact, it is not only women who need tenderness at this time.

To be precise, a moment ago, the blood from the big head was concentrated in the small head, and there was no point in saying anything at that time.

This is the best time to break through your defenses.

So under Zhang Yiren's gentle guidance, Ran Shengxu unconsciously poured out all the depression and frustration in his heart.

Zhang Yiren also understands men's thoughts very well, or in other words, she is the most appropriate listener.

For a moment, after Ran Shengxu finished speaking, he felt vaguely more relaxed than before.

Looking at Zhang Yiren's pretty face, Ran Shengxu felt an impulse in his heart for no apparent reason.

"Yiren, why don't you be my girlfriend!"

The joyful answer he expected did not come, but instead he saw her brows suddenly frown.

"Why, is it possible that you don't want to?"

"Do you think I'm your girlfriend just now? After...after doing this?"

Only then did Ran Shengxu laugh.

Hey! This is right!

After the two of them became affectionate like real boyfriend and girlfriend, Zhang Yiren suddenly leaned on his shoulder.

"Brother Xu! I also think that you definitely deserve a better role than you are now."

"kindness?"

"I think we can fight for it."

Soon, Ran Shengxu realized something.

"What do you mean?"

"The director of this play, Su Zhao, is not from your hometown. He is also the screenwriter and director."

Zhang Yiren looked at Ran Shengxu seriously.

"Brother Xu, all opportunities are earned. I heard that the protagonist of our film, Ding Zhi, also strives to be the best on the set. In terms of acting skills, you are no worse than him. In terms of qualifications, when you became famous, he had not yet made his debut.

Woolen cloth?"

Ran Shengxu didn't reply, was a little silent, and lightly patted the girl next to him.

Zhang Yiren didn't say any more and smiled lightly.

She knew that the seed had been planted.
