Who Are You Calling Powerful?

Chapter 312 Naza: Good Sisters Should Share the Hardships, and I Will Enjoy the Happiness.

Wei Yang didn't have a deep impression of the movie "The Four", and it seemed to be of average quality in his memory.

I watched it again today at the premiere, and it was indeed average.

How should I put it? Fantasy is not fantasy, martial arts is not martial arts, and detective is not detective. The style positioning is not unified, and the direction of publicity is also problematic.

At least Wei Yang believes it. When others see the words "The Four", their first reaction is a martial arts movie, or a suspenseful reasoning, but the movie has a group of martial arts characters fighting each other with super powers.

The villain is Thunderbolt + Iceman, Iron Hand is fist and foot kung fu + Iron Man, Zhuifeng is Flash, and Wuqing, who has become a woman, is a combination of Professor, Phoenix Girl and Magneto. In addition, there are

zombies, werewolves and Naruto and other elements.

It's no wonder that many netizens complained that it was the Chinese version of X-Men. This setting is plagiarized and it's hard not to make people think of it.

Of course, it is not ruled out that some people prefer this kind of "high-level" martial arts.

Moreover, although the plot is sparse, it also has a bit of fantasy color, the pictures and fighting are also OK, and Liu Tianxian and Nazha are good-looking.

However, the performance of the first male lead Deng Chao is average. To be honest, after watching this movie, Wei Yang was most impressed by Wu Moubo, the male character and even the whole movie.

This buddy's character and style are not to be discussed, but his personal image, temperament and business level are still very good.

At present, no one can surpass the "handsome uncle" in China. There are many female fans, and many male audiences don't hate him.

Don't underestimate this personality. There is no circle of handsome uncles. The reason why Wu Moubo plays the best is that his personal conditions are outstanding and he has rich experience. He combines handsomeness, vicissitudes, maturity, prodigal son, affection, gentleness, humor and other characteristics and personalities.

Those handsome uncles that girls like are not just handsome. The key is the sense of security and pleasure that those characteristics bring to women.

Scarcity makes things valuable. If you can play well with things that others can't play well, this market can only be developed by you. This is value, and it also means profit.

There are many people who can replace Deng Chao in "The Four", and there are also people who can replace Liu Tianxian and Na Zha, but there are really few who can replace Wu Moubo.

After the movie was over, the main creators came on stage to answer questions. Wei Yang did not look at Na Zha or Liu Tianxian, but looked at Wu Moubo the most.

Wei Yang was most impressed by the two works "Military Advisors Alliance" and "Beijing Loves Seattle".

In fact, he even participated in some screenwriting work in "Military Advisors Alliance" in his previous life, and he roughly understood how profitable this project was.

This drama is divided into two parts, with a total of 86 episodes. It is claimed to be an investment of 400 million, but it is definitely not that much in reality.

Moreover, as the leading actor, screenwriter, supervisor and producer, Wu Moubo himself received a lot of film and behind-the-scenes work remuneration, many of which were converted.

As for how much this drama sold, Wei Yang only knew the first season.

Youku spent 8 million per episode. As the TV platform is declining, it seems that it only spent 2.8 million per episode. Based on the 42 episodes in the first season, it is 336 million + 117 million, which is about 450 million. It is directly profitable. After deducting the water in the publicity, it may earn more.

Wei Yang didn't pay much attention to the income of the second season at that time, but I think it will be more than that after the first season has made a name for itself.

Even if the two parts are sold together, according to the above price, it is still a net profit of more than 400 million.

Even in the small screen market that has been crazy later, this size of project is not something that everyone can carry. As the core creator, Wu Moubo is very popular in the market.

If this guy hadn't turned over, Wei Yang felt that he might not be able to become a small capital...

However, this project is still far away, and Wu can't support this size of project at all.

Wei Yang can, but he is too young. He has no problem playing the young and middle-aged Sima Yi, but he may not be able to play the old-age Tomb Tiger, so this project is shelved by Wei Yang.

However, Wei Yang had been eyeing the project of "Beijing Falls in Love with Seattle" for a long time.

The investment cost of this movie is very low. The first one, including publicity and promotion, was only about 30 million, and the box office reached more than 500 million, and the second one even rushed to more than 700 million.

It may not be noticeable among those movies with a box office of more than 10 billion, but in fact, the return on investment is extremely high.

Many so-called big-budget movies may not make money from this project. It is the best project that all investors like most, with [low cost and high return].

Boss Wei knows that there are so many loopholes in the TV and movie circles, and not all of them can be picked up by him.

He is not so greedy, and he is very satisfied if he can get a part of it.

Don't look down on some projects, but in fact, outsiders can't get involved at all, and some projects are crying for money.

"Love Is Not Blind" and "Lost in Thailand" are the best examples.

Unless the former is snatched at the beginning and uprooted directly, the company does not lack this investment, while the latter is blocked everywhere, and it is easy to win with a good timing.

In the entertainment industry, the latter often account for the majority, so Wei Yang welcomes others to come to Blue Whale and Emerald Shrimp to seek investment, and sometimes he consciously sends people out to look around.

But it doesn't take much effort anyway, just contact them more or less, if you can intercept them, why not.

Wei Yang doesn't know much about this project, but he knows that the director is Xue Xiaolu, who is also a famous director in the field of romance, and the commercial box office performance is good.

So, Wei Yang had a serious chat with Xue Xiaolu before, and told him that if the other party had any good projects, he could come to him.

As expected, when the latter prepared the "Beijing Loves Seattle" project, Wei Yang was one of the investors he contacted.

Wei Yang reacted quickly and took over the project before other investors. Now it is in the preparation period, and the male and female protagonists have not been determined.

As for the female protagonist, he is not very interested in Tang Wei. Although this movie is not a big hit, it is also a good resource. If possible, he still hopes to give priority to his own people.

However, most people may not be able to stand up to the big screen. Xue Xiaolu's requirements are not low. Wei Yang still has to respect the director and may have to audition.

The male protagonist is decided to be an uncle, Wei Yang is not very suitable. He wanted to promote Qiao Zhenyu, and Xue Xiaolu was not very satisfied. She actually appreciated Wu Moubo more.

Wei Yang did not comment. It didn't matter to him who to use. Between making money and promoting people, the most important thing is definitely the former.

However, today's incident reminded Wei Yang that the key to the box office success of "Beijing Loves Seattle" is whether it is related to Wu Moubo's popularity as a handsome uncle.

If this is the key or even an important factor in the box office, then you can't easily change people.

As for Wu's character, it has little to do with him, and it's not completely incomprehensible.

Although the attack was a bit shady, the other party's appetite was really big. Wei Yang himself was not a good person, and he really had no moral advantage to evaluate Wu.

Anyway, he didn't plan to make a deep friendship. He was just a tool to make money. He would dump him after using him. It was not a principled mistake. Wei Yang didn't plan to be a moral model.

So after the premiere, Wei Yang specifically pulled Wu to talk for a few more words, which made other artists think about it.

Like Wei Yang's level, it is enough to become the center of the C position in many occasions in the circle.

When he clearly shows his attention or favor to a certain artist in a public occasion, it is inevitable that others will think more.

If it is a female artist, considering the reputation of Boss Wei, there may be other associations, but for a male artist, and a male artist with a different style from Wei Yang himself, basically everyone's first thought is that Wei Yang has a new project.

Boss Wei should not be underestimated in the past, but after all, he was only the king of the small screen.

Actors and artists who shoot TV series must be praised, but those who are devoted to the development of movies will be given a certain respect, but they will not be flattered.

After all, TV series and movies are two different concepts.

Tangren, Hai Rui, and Rong Xinda are all well-known companies on the small screen, and there are many acclaimed TV directors and producers, but few of them have made a name for themselves in the film industry.

Therefore, many people are optimistic about Wei Yang's entry into the film industry, but in fact there are also many people who are pessimistic, and of course most of them are waiting and watching.

But now that "Famous" has become popular and has become a hot movie in the summer season, Wei Yang has won the first battle and proved that he can play in the film industry.

Those who are well-informed in the industry know that Boss Wei is not short of money.

He is a rich man, and he knows many bosses. The funds on hand can even be said to be one of the strongest big pipes in the Shanghai circle.

An excellent creator, with a mature production team under his hands, plus abundant funds and connections, now has a beautiful opening project, everyone knows what this means.

It can be said that Wei Yang's status in the hearts of artists in the circle, especially movie actors, has soared.

When seeing Wei Yang and Wu Duo chatting for a few words, Deng Chao's reaction was the biggest, because he could play the role that Wu could play.

Liu Tianxian and the others could not compete with Wu Moubo for roles, but in a play, there are men and women. Since it is a new project, there may be a chance.

After failing the audition for "Famous", the more proud Fan Xiaopang is now, the more upset Liu Tianxian is.

If there is a suitable new project, Liu Tianxian is thinking whether it is worth sacrificing herself to be hypocritical with Wei Yang, the playboy.

Liu Tianxian is still hesitating, but Na Zha has no such concerns. She is eager to let Wei Yang take advantage of her.

So she took the opportunity to come over, and did not hide her purpose, and directly asked Wei Yang if there was a new project.

Boss Wei did not think she was offensive, or he was used to this character. In fact, at some moments, Wei Yang even liked this kind of simple-minded fool.

Although this kind of person can sometimes make people speechless and tired, they don't need to be on guard and are relatively relaxed.

"Don't think about this project. Your acting skills are not good enough."

Wei Yang didn't say it clearly, but he still rejected Na Zha directly. The latter was a little disappointed, but not too sad.

Having been in Blue Whale for a long time, he already knew that Wei Yang valued the actor's business and her position in the company. He just tried his best.

Knowing that he had no chance, Na Zha suddenly had an idea and glanced at Liu Tianxian, who was sending press releases to each other in "The Four Famous Detectives".

"Boss, does she have a chance?"

Wei Yang shook his head. Although he didn't like Tang Wei, he had to admit that she was good and ordinary actresses couldn't beat her.

Na Zha had no chance. In Wei Yang's opinion, Liu Tianxian, who was equally good, was also in trouble.

The disappointment on Na Zha's face immediately turned into a smile. It was sad that she failed, but it would be much better if others failed too. However, she still asked another question.

"What about Rouba?"

"No chance."

In Wei Yang's opinion, Rouba's professional level is better than Naza's, but it's not to the extent of causing a qualitative change. Besides, she has just established a foothold in the small screen and doesn't need to dream of movies in the short term.

"That would be too... a pity."

Na Zha was sorry, but she couldn't hide the bright smile on her face, and she was perfect.

Liu Tianxian was just a little grudge, and Dili Rouba was her good sister who loved and hated each other, shared hardships and happiness.

Wei Yang: "..."

He really wanted to take a picture of Na Zha's face and show it to Rouba, but he couldn't bear to see the two generals go to the police station because of fighting each other...
