Any newcomer who wants to enter must be banned from being tested.

Flix spent 100 million US dollars to film "House of Cards", invited director David Finch, and invited Kevin Spacey's best actor. The TV series has a good ratings and influence, but in the awards season that year, Kevin Spacey won no performance award!

Is it because his acting skills are not enough?

It’s not because the producer is Flix, you are a company that rents DVDs and you want to disrupt the situation. I’ll give you a killer first!

By the way, "House of Cards" won no award either!

There are dozens of TV series awards in the North American awards season, and no performance award was given to the best actor Kevin Spacey...

Of course, in the second season, I won the prize...

Even local companies are treated like this, let alone Huiwen Tianxia!

When Sony acquired Columbia, it lost several major productions in a row. If it weren't for the "Spider-Man" series that saved it, it would have gone bankrupt...

Therefore, Huiwen is very cautious about investment in North America. "The Kingdom of Moon Rising" is a low-cost independent film with a total cost of no more than US$20 million. The company read the script, inspected director Wes Anderson, and then decided to invest!

By the way, there is another script called "The Beast of the South" handed over to Huiwen Company. The investment in this drama is even lower, less than 5 million US dollars...

As for "Pacific Rim", the main investor of this drama is of course Legend Pictures, with a production cost of US$190 million!

According to a message from the North American branch, they need to invest close to $90 million...

Damn, "Pacific Rim" is a loss!

Although the box office in China has exceeded one billion, the global box office is only 400 million US dollars, and the box office in North America has exceeded one hundred million...

Of course, if the movie can be made into a co-production film and agree to some Chinese advertising implants, it can also make a profit. Otherwise, if it enters the mainland market in the form of imported films, the producer can only charge 25% of the box office.

Moreover, due to the constant changes in the exchange rate of the US dollar, collecting overseas box office share has become a seemingly simple but actually difficult thing. At the same time, the government imposing tariffs will also reduce the share of film companies.

There are too many things involved in this. If you don’t make a co-production film, and only the Legend Pictures will be the main focus, Huiwen’s money is likely to be wasted, and there is no problem on the books...

This is temporarily put on hold, and we will discuss it in detail after meeting.

What Huiwen really attaches importance to is the "Wilderness" co-produced with Am. Xu Hui even plans to direct the first two episodes himself!

The production method of American dramas is very different from that of domestic TV series. They will pilot the first two episodes and bet on the bet. Once the ratings reach the basic line, it means that the TV station wants it. Therefore, the production cost of an American drama is usually found in the first two episodes.

For example, the first two episodes of "House of Cards" were found in David Finch, and the first season of "The Atlantic Empire" was found in Martin Scorsese;

As for quality, American dramas adopt the reator-centered system. The tone of an American drama was founded by a creator. As the name suggests, this series was founded by him, that is to say, the script for the premiere trial must have been written by him. The initial TV station or producer will buy this series because of the premiere he created.

Generally speaking, the reactor will automatically become the executive producer, obtain the screenwriter's priority signature rights, and become the chief screenwriter!

The script of "The Wasteland" was written by Al Goff, and of course, Huiwen Tianxia also participated.

In short, "Wilderness" should be the main project of Huiwen Tianxia in 2012!

Once the "Wilderness" project can be completed, it means that Huiwen Tianxia can successfully enter the North American market!

...

2011 was an extraordinary year for Xu Hui!

First of all, Huiwen was successfully listed, and Xu Hui’s identity is no longer as simple as a young and promising director. He is also one of the richest bosses in the mainland!

According to the value released by Forbes Rich List, Xu Hui ranked 61st with a value of RMB 10.6 billion!

He was even nominated for the 2011 Youth Model of the Year!

Finally got into the eyes of the big guys...

In terms of his job and director, he released three of his movies in 2011, "Men Should Strengthen Self-Reliance", "The Lion King Fights for Hegemony" in the middle of the year, and "New Dragon Inn" at the end of the year...

Three dramas have created more than 1 billion box office achievements.

The total box office in mainland China in 2011 was only 14 billion. In addition to the 43% proportion of imported films from abroad, the total box office of mainland films reached 7.92 billion, of which Xu Hui accounted for nearly 40%. If we add the other two directors of Huiwen World, "My Black Miniskirt" and "Hotpot Hero", nearly half.

It can be said openly that Huiwen World occupies half of the mainland film and television industry!

This is even more true for TV series, even more excessive than movies!

"The Temptation of Going Home" after "Palace", was also produced by Huiwen, which directly created the highest ratings of Mango TV in the past five years...

The year-end "Scarlet Heart" once again achieved great ratings.

With the unspreaded dramas, Huiwen Tianxia's revenue reached 15% in the field of TV dramas alone, and the input-output is significantly higher than the entire industry.

There is also the movie, "Search". I don't know what Brother Chen Kai thought, so I have to schedule it for July...

He was probably afraid and had to wait for the domestic film protection month before he dared to release the movie...

However, Xu Hui looked at the film and said it was OK.

Brother Chen Kai is still skilled, so it is easy for him to make a movie like "Search"!

To be honest, the New Year's Eve encounter with "The Flowers of Flowers of Jinling" was both helpless and the result that Xu Hui always wanted.

He must defeat Zhang Yimou and determine his position in the domestic market.

After this battle, Xu Hui won almost the same. From now on, as long as Xu Hui's movie is released, no one in the domestic market will dare to compete with him for the time being.

He deserves the title of the new king of mainland movies!

...

At the end of the year, Xu Hui accepted an interview with "Southern Weekend", and the other party wanted him to summarize his 2011 in one sentence.

Xu Hui actually wanted to say, "Who can stand out, but I, General Xu, may be too pretentious, so he modestly said, "A year of progress with Chinese films..."

"Many people can't imagine why you tried D? Also, do you personally think that the use of D technology is a good or a bad thing for the development of Chinese films?"

"I personally think of technical control. After watching "Avatar", I thought about whether I could use it in Chinese movies. In fact, when filming "The Lion King Battle", I thought about whether I could use the shooting technique of D, but after just trying it, I gave up because D is a disaster for shooting night scenes, especially when watching movies in the cinema, which may reduce the brightness by about 40% again! This is disrespect for the audience!"

"For real feedback, when filming "New Dragon Gate", we should try to minimize night scenes. Even if we have to go out on night scenes, we will increase the brightness a little."

"The economic benefits brought by D movies attract film producers and theaters because its ticket price will be 10-20 yuan more expensive than ordinary movies. There will definitely be a large number of D movies in the future. To be honest, after this attempt, I think D is not a completely good thing for movies. In essence, the movie should return to the story as the main body!"
