Chapter 350 Fierce battle during the Lunar New Year holiday
Tiantian hasn't seen Cheng Yuan for a long time.
"Tiantian, Director Cheng is on stage. I'll tell you if you have anything." Xiao Zheng said.
"It's okay. I'll tell Director Cheng when he finishes the play." Jing Tian and his assistant stood outside obediently watching Cheng Yuan perform inside.
Half an hour later.
"Ka! It's over. The actors are taking a rest and preparing for the next scene." The director shouted to stop.
Cheng Yuan and Liu Yifei came down from the set.
"Director Cheng, Sister Yifei." Tiantian greeted the two of them.
Cheng Yu'an wore a suit and leather shoes, and Liu Yifei wore a long white skirt, still the same as in the movie.
Tiantian looked at the two of them and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "What a perfect match."
Liu Yifei took her own cup and drank the water, then handed it to Cheng Yu'an, who took it and drank it.
Tiantian then said: "Brother Cheng, "Tron: Legacy" will be released in a few days, and I will fly to the United States in the afternoon."
"That's a good thing." Cheng Yu'an smiled and said, "The people at Disney even praised you. You should perform well over there. Lingfeng is also here. If you need anything, ask her."
"Well, thank you, Brother Cheng, for letting me play "Tron: Legacy"."
"Thank you so many times," Cheng Yu'an took another sip of water, "Okay, let's go and play at the racecourse when you have time."
After Jing Tian left, Liu Yifei looked at her car as she drove away: "I quite like her."
"Well, I quite like her too."
"Um?!"
"Sister, sister! I will treat her as my sister from my hometown! Why are you so small-minded?" Cheng Yu'an added.
"You can tell you don't mean what you say at first glance." Liu Yifei said, ""Tron: Legacy" will be introduced into the country."
"Well, it will be released in China on the 10th next month." Cheng Yu'an sat down with Liu Yifei, "I watched the finished film, and the special effects are really amazing."
"No swearing."
"Bah, bah, bah." Cheng Yu'an spat several times, "The special effects are really good, so the results shouldn't be bad. Why, do you regret not taking it?"
"No, I was busy with "Inception" at that time, so I didn't have time to take care of this movie."
With Liu Yifei's temperament, asking her to finish "Inception" and join "Tron: Legacy" would drive her crazy.
Returning to the Lunar New Year holiday, what happened to Cheng Yuan in 2005 happened to Uncle Motosugi again five years later.
"The Orphan of Zhao" stole the box office of "Laughing House".
The incident happened at SJZ Pacific Cinemas. The audience wanted to buy a ticket for "Laughing in the River". The ticket seller took out a ticket for "The Orphan of Zhao" from the counter instead of the ticket machine. The audience repeatedly said that they wanted to watch "The Orphan of Zhao".
"Laughing in the Rivers and Lakes", the waiter said: "It's okay, it's okay."
As soon as the box office stealing video was exposed, it caused a big stir.
A reporter quickly dug up the old account of "The Promise" stealing the box office of Cheng Yu'an's "Clues of Time" five years ago, saying that this was not the first time Chen Kaige had done this:
"In order to save the face of the great director, he did not allow himself to lose to Director Cheng who was still a newcomer five years ago. Now, he also does not allow himself to lose to Zhu Yanping."
Pacific Cinema responded quickly: "This was a mistake made by a new waiter because he was not familiar with the process. Now he has been replaced by an experienced waiter who is skilled in the business and will not make similar mistakes again."
Will Bernard let go of such a good opportunity to pull away?
Yu Dong personally criticized Xingmei CEO Tan Hong on Weibo:
"It's been a long time since I've heard of such a ridiculous thing. I thought that we were all competing in the same field. There was no winner or loser. We were all trying to present good films to the audience and contribute to domestic films. But I didn't expect that some people would be so bold.
Arrogantly appropriating the fruits of other people's hard work as your own! And as far as I know, this is not the first time. In order to maintain his championship status, he did not hesitate to attack a newcomer. For the box office, he was embarrassed.
No. If you want the box office so much, please publish your account and I will give you 20 million."
Yu Dong's words were fierce and aggressive.
However, Tan Hong and Chen Kaige did not respond at all.
Don't give Yu Dong a chance to hype at all.
In fact, according to Chen Kaige's character, how could he allow Yu Dong to talk to him like this, but he should have been held down by Tan Hong.
After all, the box-office-stealing video has been posted online. Although both Star America and Pacific Cinemas said the video was staged, if you respond to Yu Dong at this time, it will really be mud in your crotch - it's either shit or shit.
So I just pretended to be dead.
Cheng Yu sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, and "Laughing in the Rivers and Lakes" had a good start, but the follow-up did not go well, and its reputation has not been stable since the start of the film:
"It's just a knockoff with no logic, no rhythm, and no jokes. The only thing that's really powerful is Ning Caishen's "Wulin Gaiden"-style post-modern sense of humor lines."
"I really can't laugh. Zhu Yanping has always been a bad film director. He has a lot of comedians and is also the God of Wealth screenwriter. But he still manages to be so bad. It's a disaster..."
As the only comedy film other than "Laughing Out Loud" in early December, "Journey to the Road" seized the opportunity to make a counterattack.
Douban scored 7.3, the best score among the four movies in the first half of the year.
The box office saw explosive growth on the following Friday and weekend.
It collected 10.27 million on Friday and 30 million at the box office in two days over the weekend! The total box office came to 60 million.
"What the Chinese market lacks is not blockbusters, but this kind of sincere, low-cost production."
"Such a road movie is perfect for the Lunar New Year. No matter what we encounter this year, in the end there is only one sentence: 'Just go home.'"
"Congratulations to Bao Qiang for proving his ability as a leading actor!"
"There are still three days left." Cheng Yu'an judged, "There are still three days of window period for "The Journey", and "Let the Bullets Fly" will be released in three days, followed by "If You Are the One 2". Our chances are slim.
." Cheng Yu'an took the time to have a small meeting with the company.
"I can understand that "If You Are the One 2" is great, after all it is Feng Xiaogang, but "Let the Bullets Fly"... Jiang Wen is certainly a genius, but he seems to have never been a hit."
"I went to the press conference of "Let the Bullets Fly" on the 7th," Chen Zhixi had a different opinion. "It's a very Jiang Wen movie. It is the best balance of commercial and artistic films I have seen in the past five or six years. I
I have the same premonition as Yu'an. The starting price of this film is 300 million, and 500 million is a normal performance. If it is not guaranteed, it will break the record of "Tangshan Earthquake". Coupled with the disruption of "If You Are the One 2", this New Year's Eve film will probably be sold by these two companies.
Take it all.”
After saying that, he smiled again and eased the tense atmosphere of the meeting: "Don't be too nervous, "Journey to the Road" has already made a lot of money, and it is expected to collect another 20 million later, and then leave it to "Wulin Gaiden"."
""Martial Arts" is a fan film. It shouldn't be difficult to make money. Everyone can have a good year this year."
After the meeting, Chen Zhixi stopped Cheng Yu'an: "Yu'an, you can go to the premiere of "Let the Bullets Fly" on the 16th, and "If You Are the One 2" on the 22nd."
Cheng Yu'an thought for a moment: "Okay, I'll go there later."
Chapter completed!
