No one has to think about which movie was the first to hit the limelight during the Spring Festival in 2005. It was "Crazy Stone". "Crazy Stone" took away 85 million at the box office during the Spring Festival in 2005.
, became the top box office hit at the time, and even the entire 2005 movie box office schedule was very competitive.
And director Ning Hao himself has become Star Entertainment's second domestic front-line director after Wang Zhengfei with this 85 million box office, and has become a hot and popular director nowadays.
You must know that there are only three directors in the billion-dollar club in China, including Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang and Chen Kaige. They are undoubtedly the top directors in the mainland. Erning Hao, although the box office in the mainland only only has 60 million, it is enough for him.
Become a first-line director in China.
And Star Entertainment, which has two directors with domestic first-line appeal, has finally begun to be taken seriously by big players in the industry. Generally speaking, if it can have one first-line director, it is already a medium-sized film and television company.
Having two or more directors with blockbuster films is a privilege that only big companies can have. In China, there are a lot of domestic first-line actors, but there are only a few top directors, and they all
They are all treasures of major companies, and they are usually unwilling to take them out.
Not to mention the three top directors Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige and Feng Xiaogang, even the second-tier first-line directors are very few. Basically, the whole of China is just less than the Double Ten. With just ten people, Star Entertainment has two
You can't help but make those big guys look at you.
In addition to box office dividends, this time Star Entertainment also received dividends from impression products and peripheral products. The cumulative total is more than 60 million. Of this money, 10 million was directly transferred to Wang Zhengfei's account, that is,
It is said that Wang Zhengfei can use more than 80 million in working capital, and Star Entertainment can use more than 50 million in funds to shoot "Qin Shi Mingyue". I was originally afraid that there would be a slight shortage, but it seems that it is not a shortage, but quite a lot.
It's enough. It's enough to be able to start shooting another movie at the same time as "Qin Shi Mingyue".
Of course, the other one can only be a small-scale film, otherwise the funds will still be too much!
The weather has gradually gotten warmer at the end of February, especially in the south, where you no longer feel the cold as in the north.
The sun's rays look warm on the body.
Wang Zhengfei put on a little disguise and went out. Now that he had just experienced a fight, his image was suddenly promoted from a villain to a decent person. This rapid change made him loved by more people, among whom the most
What is representative is that the number of fans on Wang Zhengfei's official website has increased from 500,000 to more than 1 million.
He had to dress up before going out, and now he had to dress up even more. Since the weather was getting warmer, Wang Zhengfei didn't wear such thick clothes anymore, so he went out wearing a white sportswear.
He was going to attend an internal celebration party for "Crazy Stone" of Star Entertainment. Although the celebration party for "Crazy Stone" had been held once before when the box office exceeded 50 million, it was for the media, and the entire crew
All the members are participating. What is being held is a small banquet. Only some important members are internally oriented. Some insignificant characters will not appear. Mainly a few leading actors and a few main creators, as well as the boss Gao Yan and Wang Zhengfei, the screenwriter.
Appear.
The small celebration banquet was held in a high-end hotel in Fuzhou, and I had a few rooms.
When Wang Zhengfei arrived, everyone had already arrived and seemed to be waiting for him alone. Wang Zhengfei said a little embarrassedly: "Sorry, I'm late!"
"You're not late, it's because we're early!" Huang Bo next to him said immediately.
Although Huang Bo only played a small supporting role in "Crazy Stone", his superb acting skills quickly became popular with "Crazy Stone", and scripts for various endorsement dramas were sent to his door. Although these leading actors were popular in "Crazy Stone"
After the drama was broadcast, they all rose to varying degrees. Among them, Guo Tao had a certain degree of popularity and fame to begin with, and he became even closer after the drama ended. However, in comparison, Huang Bo benefited the most.
It is much narrower than the others. Unlike them, whether it is a positive role, a negative role, a comedy or a serious film, there is no problem. Although Huang Bo has superb acting skills, his face shape and appearance are fixed. He can only follow the comedian route.
, otherwise it will be like Feng Xiaogang and Guo Degang, who obviously play comedy, but in order to break through the drama, they play serious roles. As a result, the plot that should be very touching becomes first-class hilarious under the interpretation of these two.
Because of this, Huang Bo, who was only suitable for starring in comedies, gained recognition from the audience more easily. He also won the favor of many directors who had originally rejected him, and quickly became a first-line comedy star in China. In this regard, although
He worked under Ning Hao, and it could be said that Ning Hao single-handedly guided him in filming, but the person he was most grateful to was not Ning Hao, but Wang Zhengfei, not just because the scene that made him famous was written by Wang Zhengfei
, and more importantly, he heard that he was specially found by Wang Zhengfei. Without Wang Zhengfei's hand-picked appointment, he might not have a chance to appear at all.
In fact, not only Huang Bo, but also many others are grateful to Wang Zhengfei, including Ning Hao. They were basically not well-known in the entertainment industry before. Even Guo Tao was only slightly famous.
And if Wang Zhengfei hadn't selected them to star this time, they wouldn't have had any chance to star in this popular movie.
Cups and cups were exchanged during the dinner. Gao Yan was a master at adjusting the atmosphere, and everyone was very happy, so the atmosphere quickly became heated.
Ning Hao was a little drunk, so he came to Wang Zhengfei, raised his glass and said, "Zhengfei, I toast you this glass of wine!"
"Okay!" Wang Zhengfei drank the glass of wine and his face turned slightly red.
"This time I, Ning Hao, am able to achieve such an achievement, all thanks to you, Zheng Fei!" Ning Hao said.
"It's only because of everyone's efforts that the movie "Crazy Stone" has been loved by so many people!" Wang Zhengfei said modestly.
"No, I know that the quality of a movie depends entirely on the quality of the script. If it hadn't been for your script this time, it would have been impossible for us to achieve that kind of result!" Ning Hao said.
"Thank you, thank you!" Wang Zhengfei said.
"What's next? I know you're going to Taiwan to film. I wonder if you have any new scripts for me to film!" Ning Hao asked. He had been struggling with this issue for a long time. Although he said "Crazy Stone"
"has achieved great success, but he definitely doesn't want to be silent. On the contrary, he must continue to surpass himself. Although he is now a director under Xingchen Entertainment, Gao Yan has not restricted him from taking roles elsewhere. After all, Xingchen
The scale of entertainment is not large now. Generally speaking, even if there are one or two film and television dramas a year, Wang Zhengfei will be considered first. After all, compared to Ning Hao, Wang Zhengfei is more reliable and more famous, so naturally he does not mind him.
Go and take other people's dramas, and the company can still get a share of it, but Gao Yan will make sure not to let Ning Hao get all the dramas.
However, although many more scripts were submitted to him, Ning Hao still had a soft spot for Wang Zhengfei's works, especially when he was filming "Crazy Stone". He felt that Wang Zhengfei had completely written what he wanted to film.
Although there are many differences from the imagined stories, it can definitely be described as heart-warming. Wang Zhengfei understands and understands him like a roundworm in his stomach.
This made him admire Wang Zhengfei to the point of admiration, and he felt like he had a confidant. It is said that it is rare to have a confidant in life, so he was more willing to ask Wang Zhengfei if he had any scripts suitable for him to shoot, even if he had money.
Even if it's less, he is willing to do it. Many times in life, he seems to be striving for fame and fortune, but most of the time, he doesn't have to value this.
"Script, let me think about it!" Wang Zhengfei thought for a moment. In addition to "Crazy Stone", Ning Hao's other very famous work is "Crazy Racing".
"Crazy Racing" is about the bicycle driver Geng Hao, who lost by 0.01 seconds and became the silver medalist. This is one line; the second line is about the two thieves, who became thieves by mistake and eventually kidnapped people.
Hurt people; the third line is a gang of four from Taiwan, who intend to make a big deal in the mainland; the fourth line is two policemen, they are eager to commit crimes, but they believe that the silver medal driver is a thief.
It tells 5 stories related to the protagonist in the same time and space, involving 6 groups of characters. This is a ridiculous story intertwined with four lines.
The story is very exciting, and it continues Ning Hao's one-by-one narrative pattern. It is no less than "Crazy Stone", and even much better than "Crazy Stone". After all, "Crazy Stone" is just Ning Hao's story.
This is just the first time I showed my skills in this area, and naturally I am not as proficient as I was a few years later. Moreover, the time it took to conceive "Crazy Racing" was much longer than that of "Crazy Stone".
"I have a creative idea, but I don't have a script yet. I've been busy recently and may not be able to write it. But I remember that you can also do the work of a screenwriter. If you can make this story idea, then this story will be great.
It belongs to you!" Wang Zhengfei said. The key is that he has no script at all now and has been busy writing "Snow Leopard" and reading some information about "Mischief Kiss" recently.
