The producer of Red Sorghum spent 65,438+million yuan on Mo Yan's adaptation copyright, 65,438+million yuan on Zhao Dongling's screenplay, 65,438+million yuan on Zheng Xiaolong's director and 30 million yuan on Zhou Xun's film. Zhou Xun should be paid 500,000 yuan for 60 episodes of the play. It seems that this price is also outstanding among the big names in the film and television circle. The producer is so extravagant, it seems that the confidence in ratings must be doubled. For Zhou Xun, firstly, he has such a market valuation, and secondly, he can use the TV screen to increase his popularity. Of course, the most important thing is that there are many large-scale passionate scenes in the play, and it is difficult to sacrifice all the scales on the big screen to the small screen.
