Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

…

The production cost of Xu Cun's "Crazy Stone" is a total of minus 49.6 million yuan. You read that right, it is a "minus" of 49.6 million yuan. Before it was released, Xu Cun has already earned 49.6 million RMB.

why?

Because during the filming stage of "Crazy Stone", Xu Cun asked Li Xiuxiu to ask for a lot of sponsorship from Pepsi, BMW and other companies-about 60 million yuan in total. If you add the sponsorship that Xu Cun's Mengzu mobile phone should give. Xu Cun can get nearly 100 million RMB just by sponsoring this one.

(Later, when Shi Nansheng and the others were publicizing, this matter was also a focus of publicity.)

If you don't mention the sponsorship, Xu Cun actually spent more than 10 million yuan in filming "Crazy Stone", which is about 15 million Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong dollars, which is more expensive than the production cost of "Crazy Stone" in his previous life. More than 7 million RMB was added, and please don’t forget, it’s only 1994 now, not 2006. In this way, the money Xu Cun spent on “Crazy Stone” was actually It is nearly ten times the production cost of "Crazy Stone" in the previous life.

So why is Xu Cun's "Crazy Stone" more expensive than the previous "Crazy Stone"?

Naturally, it can’t be the actors’ remuneration—except for Xu Cun himself, Xu Cun’s "Crazy Stone" employs almost all new actors, and their remuneration does not exceed 300,000 yuan, and this is still Xu Cun. In the case of saving more.

Nor could it be equipment fees, film material fees, props and costume fees, scene rental fees, etc.—these fees were much cheaper in 1994 than they were in 2006.

The reason why Xu Cun’s "Crazy Stone" is nearly ten times more expensive than the production cost of "Crazy Stone" in his previous life is because Xu Cun's "Crazy Stone" is more expensive than his previous life's "Crazy Stone". "Stone" is dozens of times better——Although "Crazy Stone" in the previous life has many good things, no one can deny it. Because of its insufficient production cost and Ning Hao's lack of directing skills at that time, it cannot be regarded as a good film. Xu Cun's "Crazy Stone" has strengthened the production technology fee, post-editing production fee, sound effect production fee, and the most important art production fee, etc. The cost of improving the quality of the film itself makes it in line with Xu Cun's status as the world's number one director.

but--

Even though Xu Cun put a lot of effort into the quality of "Crazy Stone", due to the geographical limitations of "Crazy Stone", it only achieved a box office of more than 100 million U.S. dollars in Europe and the United States. Or Xu Cun's incomparable fame.

In various parts of Asia, "Crazy Stone" did well at the box office.

Hong Kong: 61 million Hong Kong dollars.

Taiwan Bend: NT$197 million.

Nanyang: US$34.2 million.

Japan: 9.27 billion yen.

South Korea: 4.26 million movie viewers.

All in all, the achievements of "Crazy Stone" are not bad. If it is not placed on Xu Cun, the world's number one director, or placed on any director, that director will have enough reasons to be proud.

Although "Crazy Stone" cannot make Xu Cun proud, it is enough to satisfy Xu Cun - after all, the main purpose of Xu Cun's filming "Crazy Stone" is for the mainland film market, and "Crazy Stone" Sweeping 385 million yuan in the mainland film market has fully achieved Xu Cun's original goal. As for other film markets, it is just to make some pocket money by the way.

Don't think that Xu Cun is too crazy. With the huge and superior industry that Xu Cun now owns, he is definitely qualified to think so!

The reason why Xu Cun made movies himself was purely a personal hobby.

This is the truth!

In terms of career, it can be said that Xu Cun does not have much pursuit. He only needs to use his foresight to make some investments at the right time.

Xu Cun had already thought about it. When his sons and daughters grow up, he will assign his enterprising sons and daughters to various businesses to practice, while he will slowly retreat to the second line, and then do what he likes. Things to do, for example, invest in some movies, TV dramas, variety shows, etc., and pick up girls by the way to increase your harem.

It has not been a year or two since Xu Cun has this heart. He is looking forward to the growth of his children, just like men and women in love looking forward to getting married!

Xu Cun understands a truth very well - the only way to be unbeaten and not old and confused is to trust young people.

pity--

Xu Cun's sons and daughters are still too young now - the oldest is only fourteen years old, and it will take some time for them to grow up and practice. In addition, the era of the big Internet is coming soon, Xu Cun has to stand up for this Ban Gang.

Therefore, Xu Cun has to persevere for a few more years before he can completely unload the burden on his shoulders.

But then again, although Xu Cun can't retire yet, Xu Cun's big business has been built and is developing steadily. Therefore, Xu Cun waits for his children to grow up. At the same time, you can also take some time to enjoy your own life, which is why Xu Cun will direct "Crazy Stone" and participate in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Journey to the West".

...

The shooting speed of Xu Cun's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was not fast, although almost the entire crew revolved around Xu Cun-it was not until the end of September that Xu Cun finished filming on the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" crew.

After finishing the filming, Xu Cun took Jiang Maojiao and Zhang Ziyi back to their home in Beijing, which is Baicunju, to rest for a while.

Taking advantage of this time, Xu Cun dealt with the work that had accumulated for several months.

In mid-November, Zhou Xingchi and Liu Zhenwei specially came to Beijing to invite Xu Cunjin's group to complete the filming of "A Chinese Journey to the West".

This matter was already arranged by Xu Cun with Zhou Xingchi and Liu Zhenwei, so Xu Cun didn't talk nonsense. The next day, he flew to Ningxia with Zhou Xingchi, Liu Zhenwei and others in his own private jet, and then took his own convoy to Went to Zhenbeibao Film and Television City.

Regarding Xu Cun's arrival, Zhu Yin, Lan Jieying and Cai Shao who haven't seen Xu Cun for a long time since filming "A Chinese Journey to the West" mentioned how happy they are!

Leveraging the joy of Zhu Yin, Lan Jieying, and Cai Shaofen, Xu Cun took them and their photographic equipment into the desert that night, and shot a blockbuster H-version of "A Chinese Journey to the West" in the desert.

That is, on this night, Xu Cun, who was dissatisfied with the lack of actors for this blockbuster film, did something to make Tu Weihua, an old friend of more than ten years, sorry...
