This Star Wants To Retire

Xu Chujing was not surprised at all when she heard Luo Mo's words.

She is just stating an objective fact, and she is well aware of some of the hidden routines in the film industry.

But how could Luo Mo bow his head and compromise?

You know, when he was just a trainee, he dared to face Pineapple Entertainment, one of the four major companies in the industry, and the joint [explosion-proof] of more than ten well-known entertainment companies.

After time travel, when his soul merged, Luo Mo thought about a question: relying on the brilliant civilization, how should he live with a civilization as his reliance?

Of course, it is necessary to change the way of life.

The big deal is that I really can't get along anymore, so I should retire early.

Unfortunately, this has not happened yet.

—— "This Star Really Wants to Retire".

Xu Chujing looked up at Luo Mo, and the smile on her face froze instantly.

"Where are you looking?"

"Didn't the doctor say you can't bow your head?"

……..

……..

Shencheng, a high-end residential area.

This is the house Song Ge rented.

Although this person had been nicknamed "Water Emperor" a few years ago, he didn't actually make much money.

On weekdays, he spends a lot of money, and he is extremely good-looking, but he doesn't have enough money to buy a high-end residence in Shencheng, where every inch of land is expensive.

Today's hot searches all day can be said to have caught Song Ge in a daze.

He knew very well that sooner or later Luo Mo would cross over to the film industry, it was a matter of time.

But he didn't expect that everything would come so quickly.

I never thought that it would be in this form!

"As soon as I came up, I was a co-director, a screenwriter, and a producer."

"And the investment is still so large, a total production cost of 150 million."

"It's so fucking anime!"

Song Ge's eyes shed tears of envy.

Among other things, he couldn't afford the production cost anyway.

But people, once envy, jealousy and hatred, some other emotions will arise.

More than most people, he expected Luo Mo to lose money.

And it must be a blood loss!

Song Ge, who is about to join the [2 Billion Box Office Club], feels that he has a professional vision.

"Forget it, you don't need a professional eye for this. If you have a brain, you will know that you will lose!"

"Why do other people's box office records only exceed 100 million yuan, and your production cost is 150 million yuan?"

"Other people call you Luo Shen a few times, do you really think of yourself as a god?"

Song Ge used to think that although Luo Mo had the sharp edge of a young man and didn't know how to be restrained, but in terms of work, his ideas were still very mature.

Now it seems that this person is probably drifting away.

"Has the great success of anime such as "The Rabbit", "Five Elements in the Fog Mountain", and "Spiritual Cage" made his ambition grow to such a morbid level?" Song Ge laughed.

He even wants to open a bottle of red wine now, and invite a relatively familiar and safe money burner to come to the house to spend a pleasant evening together.

Song Ge felt that his new boss, Wang Shisong, must be happy from ear to ear now.

Although at their level, it is normal to occasionally lose 100 million for investment failures.

Especially in these years, pineapple can be said to have lost all the way, and all kinds of businesses have been cut in half.

But, watching Luo Mo's undefeated myth is shattered, it's very satisfying, isn't it?

………

………

In the capital, a high-end private club.

Chen Kai, the boss of Xindi Cinemas, is drinking tea in an antique courtyard.

This small courtyard is not big, but the decoration is extremely elegant.

Although the picture scrolls and some ink treasures hanging inside are not authentic works by famous masters, ordinary experts may not be able to tell the authenticity.

This kind of counterfeit is actually very valuable.

Inside the house, an elegant woman in a cheongsam with a good temperament is playing the zither.

On the other side, a beautiful woman wearing the same cheongsam and somewhat similar to the guzheng girl was making tea.

——"Mother and Daughter".

Well-maintained, if two women sit together, no one will think they are mother and daughter, most of them will think they are sisters.

Cintiq Cinemas is one of the largest cinemas in China, with more than 150 cinemas across the country, accounting for 14.2% of the market.

This data is not too different from the situation on the earth in about 14 or 15 years.

In the past few years, Blue Star's domestic film industry has been booming, and the annual box office has been rising year by year. It can be said that Cintiq Cinemas has made a lot of money.

According to their current plan, within five years, there will be more than 300 theaters nationwide!

The beautiful woman in a cheongsam sat sideways on the futon, soaked the big red robe skillfully, and poured it into the cups of Chen Kai and a young man.

The young man's name is Meng Jiang, and he is Chen Kai's door-to-door son-in-law, that is, the career that has been hot and coveted in recent years-zuo son-in-law.

"Dad, did you see the news this afternoon? Luo Mo and He Yuanguang's "The Return of the Great Sage" has been submitted for trial." Meng Jiang said to his father-in-law.

Chen Kai nodded and said with a smile: "This matter is so big that everyone in the industry knows about it. If I don't know about it, then the news is too closed."

The beautiful woman in cheongsam continued to pour tea for the two of them, as if she was not interested in all the conversation.

People like her have to learn to be a tree hole.

Stories can be contained, but trees cannot speak.

On the contrary, the cheongsam girl who was playing the guzheng at the side raised her head slightly after hearing Luo Mo's name, and took a look this way.

She likes Luo Mo very much.

I have also had several dreams that girls of the same age would have.

After the beautiful woman poured the tea, she looked up at her daughter unobtrusively as a warning.

The cheongsam girl tightened her legs slightly in fright, and continued to concentrate on her guzheng work.

Chen Kai took a sip of hot tea and said to his son-in-law, "What do you think about this matter?"

Meng Jiang actually mentioned this matter on purpose, because he had already thought about it in his heart before coming to drink tea.

He just wanted his father-in-law to ask him, and then give his own answer.

Meng Jiang pretended to ponder, as if thinking for a few seconds, and then said: "I heard that there are some people who want to take this opportunity to take advantage of Luo Mo."

"But my idea is that if "The Return of the Great Sage" is released outside the Spring Festival and other schedules, it is better to exchange some benefits appropriately, add more films for him, or put more stands and banners in the theater , posters and the like, to help publicize.”

"Oh?" Chen Kai put down the teacup, glanced at his son-in-law, and then asked another question.

"Luo Mo is joining the film industry for the first time, and his future development is still unpredictable. However, if we cooperate for the first time and we have a good attitude and relax various requirements, then he will really thrive in the future Now, what about the next conditions?"

Meng Jiang thought about this question and said, "Dad, my idea is that the key point still depends on how the conditions are negotiated when we cooperate for the first time."

"Then talk about it." Chen Kai didn't show his anger or anger, but seemed to be persuasive and patient.

But Meng Jiang knew very well that once he said something wrong, Chen Kai's face would immediately drop.

Meng Jiang swallowed, and said, "My idea is, isn't our theater also going to sign a new spokesperson?"

"It is well known in the circle that Luo Mo rarely accepts endorsements, and the control in this aspect is extremely strict."

"So far, even if someone offers an unprecedented price in the industry, Luo Mo will not be moved."

"But the more he does, the more he cherishes the feathers, the more precious his endorsement becomes."

These days, many celebrities have had trouble with endorsement, and it was a big deal.

After all, you can't say that you use your influence to exchange money, you make a lot of money, and then you don't have to bear any consequences after an accident, right?

In this regard, traffic stars are more prone to accidents. There is another category, that is, those middle-aged stars who were popular in the early years and have a high degree of nationality.

Choosing a spokesperson is very important for an enterprise.

Meng Jiang proposed such a big matter and asked Luo Mo to speak for him, but Chen Kai still didn't express his opinion, but said indifferently: "Continue."

Meng Jiang continued: "There is one more thing...Dad, don't you also want us Xindi to participate in the field of film investment?"

"We can just take this opportunity to get Luo Mo to agree to our follow-up cooperation."

"His live-action movie will definitely be worth more than any anime movie."

"With his traffic, and it's the first movie, there must be some box office appeal."

On Earth, in recent years, the major theater chains have begun to be more than just showing movies, and then participating in the box office share.

Many theater chains have begun to try to start directly from the source and join the ranks of investment.

Therefore, when you go to the movies in recent years, if you pay attention to the companies in the opening titles, many of them may be run by theaters.

There are many companies that really make a lot of money because of this, and directly divide the money into two waves.

In Blue Star, this trend has just begun, and most of them are still in the stage of testing the waters.

Chen Kai put down his cup and waved to the young woman in cheongsam making tea.

The young woman immediately walked behind him and began to massage the temples of Chen Kai who had closed his eyes.

Meng Jiang, the son-in-law, has long been accustomed to seeing this scene.

He dared to do things that ordinary people wouldn't do in front of his son-in-law, because he had the capital and didn't bother to hide it.

But you, as a son-in-law, dare to try to be sorry for my daughter?

People, there is always a double standard.

At this time, Chen Kai was actually a little unhappy.

He felt that Meng Jiang had considered too much. Whether it was a spokesperson or investment, it was not something that he should think about now.

But from another point of view, if people don't even think about it, Chen Kai doesn't like such a person at all.

With his eyes closed, he didn't give Meng Jiang an answer, but asked another question.

"So, you actually don't like "The Return of the Great Sage", you just take a fancy to Luo Mo's personal value."

Meng Jiang knew that Chen Kai didn't like to hear ambiguous words, yes means yes, no means no, so he gritted his teeth and replied: "Yes."

Chen Kai smiled and said, "Go home."

He started chasing people directly.

Meng Jiang responded, got up obediently, and left respectfully.

He didn't understand what his father-in-law was thinking.

In fact, Chen Kai is quite optimistic about "The Return of the Great Sage".

Although he doesn't think this anime can pay back, he doesn't think it will die.

Just because he inquired about something this afternoon.

In other words, I found out a name.

"If the way of publicity is chosen correctly, then his name will be worth at least 100 million at the box office!" Chen Kai closed his eyes and said in his heart.

………

………

The next day, in Beijing, Audit Department.

Deputy team leader Zhong Lin came to work with red eyes again.

The team members have become accustomed to this, and can even infer from the deputy team leader's swollen eyes: "It's probably Luo Mo's doing it again!"

The group leader Zhong Lin was made to cry by Luo Mo, and this time seemed to be no exception.

As usual, after Luo Mo's works are submitted for review, Zhong Lin will review all of them in person.

The people under her command have no reason to feast their eyes because of their work relationship.

Alas, it's a pity that I lost a lot of talk when I was bragging with my friends.

The courageous little girl, seeing Zhong Lin coming in, asked softly, "Leader, is "The Return of the Great Sage" good?"

"It's not good-looking! Luo Mo's animation is so annoying!" Zhong Lin showed a little girl-like gesture which was rare.

Give out knives, give out knives every time!

This Luo Dao Dao has no heart at all!

Jiang Liuer is so cute... Alas!

After Zhong Lin put her bag on the desk in the office, she started to deal with some basic tasks.

After about half an hour, she got up and went to He Pingan's office.

Originally, the trial of "The Return of the Great Sage" was nothing more than a trivial matter.

She has no reason to disturb He Pingan.

She went straight to the trial herself, and then it was over.

To be precise, she went to her little grandfather, He Pingan, not because there were any problems with the movie, she didn't dare to review it by herself.

Just because there is a name in the production list of this movie.

Because of this name, she felt the need to speak to He Pingan.

She thinks, the little grandpa should be very happy, right?

This person is called Huang Lun.

He is He Yuanguang's teacher, and he is also the producer of the well-known animation "Journey to the West" in China!

It can be said that his "Journey to the West" has accompanied generation after generation to grow up.

At the same time, because of some past events, he has a close relationship with He Pingan.

To be precise, Mr. Huang Lun started to produce "Journey to the West" under the instruction of He Ping'an in that era of poverty and poverty.

Don't think that Blue Star's audit department is only responsible for the audit. Don't even think that Blue Star's review department has no effect on the movie's box office.

You know, a movie has a screening cycle in theaters.

When the time comes, it will be released.

Perhaps everyone also knows a word - [Key].

All major cinema chains and production companies can apply for [Key] extension, that is, to delay the release of this movie compared to other movies in the same schedule, continue to play in theaters, and continue to earn box office.

but……

——The audit department has the right not to pass.

At this time, Zhong Lin was holding a small folder, standing outside the door of He Ping'an's office, raised her hand and knocked on the door.

(ps: Two in one, ask for a monthly pass at the end of the month to secure the sixth!)
