Huang Wenchuan's mood has been ups and downs in the past few days. He originally felt that his film was shot too hastily. He should not and could not release the film before the relationship with theaters was established and the publicity channels were not open.

In the final analysis, I am still too confident in myself, thinking that I can break all off-site factors with the quality of my works.

Little did they know that the movie hadn't even been released yet, but the theater chain was stuck. If it weren't for the fact that Huang Wenchuan was a top-ranked director in the film and television industry, and the theater chain gave it some face and randomly arranged two shows, the movie wouldn't have even been released online.

becomes a problem.

Huang Wenchuan used to only be responsible for making movies. When he began to try to transform from a part-time worker to a boss, he finally understood one thing: good wine can also be afraid of deep alleys.

No matter how good the movie is, if it can't be released, it's all in vain. Huang Wenchuan didn't understand the twists and turns in it before. He only knew how to immerse himself in making movies. He was disgusted with the behavior of the capital side who often brought money into the film and gave instructions to the crew.

Huang Wenchuan felt that there were problems with this existing industry development model, so he chose to take a different path.

But after Huang Wenchuan came out, he discovered that the roads outside were not easy to walk. The most important thing is that capital is in power these days, and most theater chains and resources are monopolized by capital.

The world is so big and I still want to love you is a living example of this movie. It is obviously a good quality movie, but in the end it is difficult for the audience to even know that this movie exists.

At first, Wang Siyi just wanted to help Huang Wenchuan and return a favor, but he underestimated his popularity in the end. After all, there are really not many films scheduled for this movie. The theme song was sung by Wang Siyi, and fans are still willing to buy it.

So the fans almost took over the box office that day. After watching it, many fans found that the movie was actually very good, so they started to blackmail people around them.

The reputation of Huang Wenchuan's movie was spread like this, and it successfully took over the box office in two days.

In the Internet era, the speed of information dissemination is explosive. When many people are discussing one thing, self-media or marketing accounts on the Internet will start to follow suit.

Over the course of a day, discussions about the movie The World Is So Big Still Want to Love You began to take place on the Internet, and the popularity was obviously rising.

The film scheduling rate has also increased from the initial 1% to 5%. Many theaters have begun to show Huang Wenchuan's new movies, and the scheduled screenings are no longer so hellish, they are all relatively normal time screenings.

Huang Wenchuan felt like he had come to life. According to this trend of rising box office, the film's scheduling rate will definitely continue to increase. Huang Wenchuan has become very skilled at this stage of the film's release.

He can even roughly estimate the final box office score of the movie. Based on the current box office trend, Huang Wenchuan estimates that the final score of the movie will be no less than 200 million and no more than 300 million.

It can be said that this box office result is not very high. Even apart from Huang Wenchuan's several works in the morning, the box office can be considered very low.

But the problem is that the cost of this movie is only 10 million, which means that the return rate of this movie is at least 200%.

Huang Wenchuan took a breath of air-conditioning. It was so terrifying. After making movies for so many years, this was the first time he had made a movie with such a high return rate.

In the past, movies had high box office and high investment. According to the movie box office share, the movie's box office must reach three times the investment cost in order to barely maintain a profit, but that is only theoretical.

Sometimes Huang Wenchuan's movies have high box office, but they don't actually make a lot of money, and some may even lose money. After all, some movies with high box office have high investment costs.

The cost of this movie was only 10 million, which can be said to be a low-budget movie. It is a typical movie that makes a big impact with a small amount, and it was successful.

Huang Wenchuan originally expected the box office of this movie to be around 80 million. After all, the investment cost was not high and there were no big-name actors.

The only two highlights are that this movie was directed by him, the quality of the movie is good, and the theme song was sung by Wang Siyi.

But unfortunately, due to insufficient publicity and film schedule, the movie did not have a very good start at the box office.

The main reason for the counterattack at the box office this time was Wang Siyi and Li Changle's full promotion.

The box office quality of Huang Wenchuan's movie was higher than that of other movies of the same period, but it only lacked one opportunity, an opportunity for exposure.

Wang Siyi's casual act of returning a favor directly gave this movie momentum despite a poor schedule.

…

Li Changle and Wang Siyi were having breakfast leisurely since they discussed the next plan for the program recording with Meng Wenjun.

Li Changle and Wang Siyi have nothing to do, because they have to wait for Zhou Xinyu and Xie Jiaming's schedule to be able to record the film and television soundtrack.

Therefore, the recording of the variety show has been put on hold for the time being, but fortunately there is still enough time before the show is broadcast.

Meng Wenjun didn't look too worried. Li Changle and Wang Siyi were also enjoying their leisure time. Needless to say, they were really tired during the recording of the program.

The mobile phone on the table rang. Li Changle picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth. He turned his attention to the mobile phone on the table. It seemed to be Huang Wenchuan's phone. Li Changle picked it up and answered the phone.

"Director Huang? It's okay. We didn't do anything extraordinary. We just posted a random Weibo post. The main thing is that your movie is good."

Li Changle did not expect that Huang Wenchuan's call was to express his gratitude. He also did not expect that just because of Wang Siyi's Weibo, Huang Wenchuan's movie could be brought back to life.

"No need to thank you, Director Huang is too polite. If it weren't for Director Huang, Siyi might not have achieved the results he has today. Speaking of which, I have to thank you."

…

"That's okay. We just did some trivial things. We deserve it. Director Huang, let's forget about the box office share."

…

Li Changle was polite to Huang Wenchuan for ten minutes, until his mouth dried up, and he finally persuaded Huang Wenchuan to plan to give himself a portion of the movie's box office.

The box office of this movie is expected to be at least 200 million. Even if Huang Wenchuan only gives himself a few percent, it will still be several million. Li Changle cannot afford it, and besides, he is not short of money.

There are so many people in the world. This song is the theme song. At first, Wang Siyi only received a few hundred thousand symbolically.

It always feels weird to sit around and take millions without doing anything. It would have been okay if the contract had been signed before, but it was obviously Huang Wenchuan's whim. Li Changle felt that he deserved it.

In fact, from Li Changle's point of view, he and Wang Siyi did not do anything. They just went to see a movie and posted a Weibo post.

Li Changle never expected that Huang Wenchuan would be so kind and would give him the box office share as he asked. But no matter what, Li Changle couldn't just take something that wasn't written into the contract in advance.

"Script? You can consider this. I happen to have some ideas, but I've been a little busy lately, so I'm afraid I'll have to wait until I have more time to read it."

Fortunately, Huang Wenchuan did not persist in the end. After a lot of arguing and refusing, Li Changle asked Huang Wenchuan if he had the idea of ​​making a movie. This time, Li Changle did not refuse. He only said that he would consider it if he had time.

Li Changle actually has a lot of ideas about movies, otherwise he would not have given suggestions to Huang Wenchuan's "Thousand Years of Love" script before.

It's just that given the current situation, Li Changle won't be able to spare time in the short term, and the love recording cycle for celebrities is two months.

The soundtrack for Legend of Sword and Fairy III has not yet been recorded, and an album is expected to be prepared for Wang Siyi in the second half of the year.

These things are very important. Li Changle could only say that he couldn't get away for the time being, and Huang Wenchuan also expressed his understanding.

At least Li Changle didn't refuse this time. Anyway, it's impossible for Huang Wenchuan to start preparing for another movie before this movie is released.

The donkeys in the production team don’t dare to do this!

Huang Wenchuan has shot a total of three movies from last year to now, and all of them have done well at the box office. In terms of efficiency and speed, he is definitely a model worker among directors.

"Director Huang invited you to make a movie?"

Wang Siyi had been listening to Li Changle's phone call, and more or less heard some of the content.

Li Changle nodded and said, "Yes, but I would like to think about it if you don't have time to bother with this."

Wang Siyi looked Li Changle up and down: "You can still write movie scripts."

Wang Siyi knew that Li Changle could write songs and novels, but he had never heard that Li Changle could write scripts.

Li Changle shrugged, shook his head calmly and said, "No, but I can write a story. Once I write the story, I can just ask Director Huang and others to adapt the content into a script. It's not that difficult."

Although Wang Siyi has never been an actor, he is in the entertainment industry and has some knowledge of movies.

Wang Siyi pondered for a while and then said: "Movies are different from TV series. The difference between movies and TV series is the difference between short stories and full-length films. The difference is still huge."

Wang Siyi has absolute confidence in Li Changle's novels and novels being adapted into TV series, because the stories of several novels written by Li Changle are really good, and they are also very suitable for adaptation into TV series.

However, adapting movie stories is obviously more difficult than adapting TV series. The duration of a movie will never exceed four hours, and most of them will not exceed two hours.

The novel adaptation may tell a story and the timeline can be extended, but the movie is different. The movie focuses more on one event. Obviously, it is much more difficult to adapt the story for the movie than for the TV series.

Li Changle probably knew what Wang Siyi was thinking. Wang Siyi was worried that he didn't understand the core logic of the movie script, so he reminded him.

If you are an ordinary person who has never been exposed to movies, you will indeed have this problem.

But Li Changle is different. He really doesn't know how to write movie scripts, but he has a good memory and has so many classic movies in his mind.

It doesn't matter if you don't know how to write a script. Li Changle can use the stupidest method to rewrite the lines line by line, and then give it to Huang Wenchuan to polish it, and the script will come out, right?

Li Changle smiled and then said: "Let's talk about this later. I just thought about it a little bit. I'm very busy now and don't have time to do this. Besides, Director Huang has just finished filming a movie, so it shouldn't be possible right away.

We’re going to make a new movie.”

As soon as Chen Baozhu entered the door, he saw Li Changle and Wang Siyi eating breakfast. He was not polite and sat down directly. Then he said to the two: "Xie Jiaming and Zhou Xinyu's schedules are free. We can go to record together tomorrow.

The soundtrack album of the sequel to Legend of Sword and Fairy.

I also communicated with Director Meng that the recording of the variety show will start tomorrow. The other guests have finished recording the first theme, and we are the only ones left."

Wang Siyi put down Kuaizi and nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Baozhu."

Chen Baozhu waved her hand and said: "Hey, isn't this my job? Let me tell you, remember to prepare for today. You still need to show yourself more or less during the recording of the variety show. Don't be too low-key."

Chen Baozhu has always felt that Wang Siyi is not suitable for recording variety shows. She has worked with Wang Siyi for three years. Every time she appears on a variety show, Wang Siyi always behaves like a stranger.

This variety show is S-level, and the two of them are regular guests. If they can perform well, Wang Siyi will have a lot of fans.

Although he was not sure whether Wang Siyi would hear it, Chen Baozhu still had to say what he needed to say.

"I know, Sister Baozhu, I will do it." Wang Siyi nodded obediently.

Chen Baozhu looked at Wang Siyi with satisfaction. Regardless of whether Wang Siyi would listen or not, this attitude was good for now. Chen Baozhu looked at the time again and said "Oops". Then he quickly said: "Then you can prepare yourself. I

I still have something to do, so let’s go first.”

Chen Baozhu left in a hurry, leaving the two of them looking at each other.

"Do you feel that Sister Baozhu is a little different lately?" Li Changle asked hesitantly.

"What's different?" Wang Siyi continued to pick up Kuaizi, obviously going to continue eating breakfast. It was quite difficult to eat breakfast today. First, Huang Wenchuan, and then Chen Baozhu came and interrupted their breakfast time.

Li Changle pondered for a moment, thought for a while, and then said: "That's it, I feel like there are a lot more smiles on my face, and I feel gentler when talking to people, which is a bit unaccustomed..."

Wang Siyi thought about it for a moment, and it seemed that this was really the case, and then nodded: "It seems that it is indeed the case..."

"Tell me, is Sister Baozhu in love?"

"How do you say that?" Wang Siyi looked up at Li Changle in surprise.

"When I recorded the song Little Dimples last time, I felt that Sister Baozhu and Teacher Yang Caiqian were flirting with each other. I always felt that there was something fishy between them. Looking at their recent status, they might be having an affair."

Wang Siyi thought about it and found that it was indeed the case.
