Chapter 312: Light Year’s product must be a masterpiece!
After the box office took in 40 million in the first week, Chen An received another call from Boss Xu.
But Chen An just took a look and hung up, take your time!
This film is directed by a new director and stars new actors. It has no big-name actors in its production and features a female lead who has never been seen before. She appears out of nowhere and has taken the market by storm in the new year!
The name of Lightyear Media is like an undefeated myth hanging high in the sky!
With success after success, Light Year Media is praised by the media as "Light Year's products are always top quality!"
"I thought A World Without Thieves and Kung Fu were brave enough, whose general is this?!"
"Tell the general, this is the dipping sauce of Light Year Media under Chen An. He is actually one of the three henchmen under Chen An, and he is extremely brave!"
"The situation in China is about to change. This movie is expected to break the 100 million mark. The 100 million director club in China will have another member!"
"I thought that movies without Chen An would be boring, but I didn't expect that they would be released one after another during the Lunar New Year holiday. I am very pleased, but unfortunately my pockets are a little empty."
"【Image】, everyone, I think I caught Chen An. Look at this ID, all of them are replying to posts about Chen An, and the frequency is not low!"
"Fuck, 'Lihua Chunyubai' is such a disgusting name, is it true?!"
"With his shamelessness, it's not impossible for him to do it. After all, he's a man who can play a double role. He can do anything!"
"."
The drama generated quite a stir within just one period of time, and was finally taken over by Lightyear Media to stabilize the situation.
Although the box office declined in the second week, the decline was not significant and it still grossed 37 million.
This time, Boss Xu called Chen An several times, but he still didn't answer. He just took a look and hung up.
Even though boxes of supplements were continuously delivered to the company, Chen An did not accept any of them. It was not the right time yet, but he could give them to his employees as New Year gifts.
I also sent some to Weibo employees.
At this time, the nomination list for the 77th Academy Awards was successfully released!
"No Country for Old Men" received a total of eight nominations!
This shocked a lot of media, because for domestic media it was as if the news had just emerged.
Chen An did not do much publicity and was not nominated for a Golden Globe Award, but now he has been directly nominated for eight Oscars!
The most eye-catching thing is of course that Chen An was nominated for Best Picture, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay again!
This period was originally filled with recent movie releases, but the news that Chen An was nominated for an Oscar again broke the siege.
Because Zhang Yimou failed to be nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film at the Oscars again, he was nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film at the Golden Globe Awards. Zhang Weiping had promoted it a lot at the time, but in the end he didn't win the award. Now it has become Chen An's wedding dress!
Zhang Weiping was so angry that his teeth were itching. He felt furious after reading these reports. He spent a lot of money promoting "House of Flying Daggers" and had it nominated for the Golden Globe Awards, but now all the benefits were reaped by Chen An!
Now that the nomination has been made, it’s time for Chen An to move on. Public relations will also take some time, and with an Oscar nomination, the film can be released on a large scale.
Boss Xu, who couldn't get through on the phone, came directly to the company, and coincidentally Chen An hadn't left yet.
"Boss Xu, are you here to scold me?"
Chen An looked at the other party coming over and said with interest.
Boss Xu changed his previous arrogance and said with a smile: "Chen An, please bear with me. I was blind before and I didn't understand. I hope you can forgive me, haha."
I had only watched the movie before and there weren't many scenes with my lover, so I called directly to question him.
Who knew that this movie would be so incredibly good, it has earned almost 80 million in just two weeks, and breaking 100 million is not a problem. If it can make money, it actually doesn’t matter whether there are shots or not!
At worst, she could use the money she earned to find a director to only shoot her scenes. And in the final analysis, she just felt embarrassed and felt she was being brushed off. In fact, if she can make money, it doesn't matter whether she can become famous or not.
At worst, you can just spend a little more and find someone famous!
Chen An blocked it with his hand: "No, Boss Xu, I still like you to look unruly, please change it."
"Director Chen, you are really good at joking. Thank you very much this time. I was ignorant. It turns out that you have good professional vision." Boss Xu looked admiring.
Chen An laughed, "Boss Xu, I had my hair cut for a reason. If you were trying to make her happy by spending money, there's no need to come to me. I helped you this time."
"Our Light Year Media's works are well-known in the industry and have made many stars famous. Have you watched Kung Fu?" "Yes!" Boss Xu nodded innocently, "Of course I can't not watch it. Zhou Xingchi's movies were the most popular in the mine. Workers would have more energy to work after watching them. I like watching them too."
"This time the leading actress became an instant hit, with constant commercial pay and numerous advertising collaborations. If she becomes as popular as she is, you, Boss Xu, won't be able to keep her. It's better to make some money!"
Chen An acted as if she was doing this for your own good, and tried to persuade the daughter-in-law with earnest words.
Boss Xu also cooperated and looked shocked, pretending well, "Director Chen is right, making money is more important, hahahaha!"
The two then smiled at each other and chatted with their arms around each other.
Lightyear Media definitely made a profit this time, as they didn't spend a penny and got 50% of the box office revenue of over 100 million yuan, and they still have the copyright.
Although this type of movie does not have big-name stars or directors, and it is not easy to sell overseas copyrights, its performance is indeed outstanding.
It’s not a small amount of money, and Boss Xu won’t lose anything.
Chen An accepted the gifts from the other party without any apology. He never refuses anyone. After all, I am famous for not necessarily doing things even if you pay me!
Before leaving, Boss Xu shouted as he walked that they would continue to cooperate.
Chen An just waved and saw them off.
Cooperation?
If you continue to invest money, we will continue to cooperate. If it weren't for the fact that you are stupid and have a lot of money and are easy to fool, who would cooperate with you?
The movie has been released for two weeks and is expected to gross over 100 million yuan. It’s almost the New Year, so Chen An gave his employees a generous year-end bonus!
Especially for the new employee Wang Baoqiang, Chen An directly gave him 300,000 yuan!
The company is about to go on holiday, but Chen An is preparing to go to Hollywood.
"How long will it take this time?" Zeng Li helped pack.
The Oscar nomination list has been released, and it has been known for a long time that the other party will definitely go.
"It will probably be after the New Year."
Chen An thought that after the award ceremony was over, he would deal with other things. It would probably be March already.
By then the new year will be over.
Zeng Li frowned slightly, sighed, and packed her luggage silently.
"What's wrong?" Chen An noticed that something was wrong with the other party.
Zeng Li turned her head away so that Chen An wouldn't see her and said, "Nothing." She packed her things silently.
"If you have something to say, just say it."
"I," Zeng Li said with her back to Chen An, "I originally wanted to go to your house to celebrate the New Year. I'm already 28 years old."
"."
After hearing what the other party said, Chen An fell silent and said nothing.
They were both born in 1976, and the other person is only a few months younger than me. I am a man who has reached maturity, but she is already a grown woman.
He had never paid attention to this problem before because Yu Jinghong had never mentioned it and didn't care about it.
Now look at Zeng Li, the young girl on campus has now become charming and mature.
Zeng Lizhi sent him to the door, and Chen An got into the car with his things, his thoughts a little distracted.
It was not until I got on the plane and looked at the earth and white clouds outside the window that I began to think slowly.
