Chapter 422: Rivers of blood flow! Double "Red Cliff" release! (23)

After the premiere.

Shen Santong asked the publicity and promotion staff to say hello to the media.

Don’t let words like “Wu Yusen SB” appear in newspapers.

Although it is true, we should still maintain some dignity.

however.

The news still got out!

"The audience doubts Wu Yusen for not admitting that the lead actor of Wu Hou is the original author"

"Audience members at the premiere of Shen's version of Red Cliff scold Wu Yusen"

"A new propaganda method? Movie hype cannot be without bottom line!"

"Don't be extreme, don't hate education! Movies should just be movies!"

"How innocent is the international director, the angry young man Shen Santong!"

The media went into a frenzy.

There's no way to avoid fighting.

Rivers of blood!
There must be rivers of blood!
You can collect money from both sides and earn sales.

Constantly creating various suspense.

Is the internationally renowned director Wu Yusen better, or is the up-and-coming young director Shen Santong one step ahead?

Will Hong Kong directors be able to easily prove their appeal once again, or will mainland directors be able to withstand the test of the market?
Are the older generation of directors more experienced, or are the young people simply undisciplined and outwitting the old masters?
Zhang Jiazhen, the producer of Wu's version of "Red Cliff", stepped in to coordinate media resources.

As a native of Hong Kong Island, he has extensive media connections.

All kinds of flattering articles are everywhere.

From the perspectives of director status, stars, and special effects, just like adding and subtracting, it can be seen that Wu's version of "Red Cliff" is far better than Shen Santong's version.

It also implied that Shen Santong was engaging in unfair competition.

It was Shen Santong who deliberately arranged for people to carry out personal attacks in the cinema.

Shen Santong led the main creative team to intensify publicity and promotion.

There is a gap in the publicity. I am speechless to see this situation.

Some media are really powerful. They take his tea money and have the best of both worlds.

Moreover, the Lunar New Year period was deliberately forgotten, and he was portrayed as a challenger.

fart!
Wu Yusen is the challenger in the domestic market.

Look at the movies ranked in film history, they were either directed by him or produced by him!

Shen Santong shouted without explaining: "I don't understand why we have to let this person play Wu Hou?"

No one in the previous life used this to beat Wu Yusen's "Red Cliff".

Holding up the banner of justice, using moral blackmail.

In addition, China Film Group has used a lot of resources to clear up its schedule, so there is no competitor.

Shen Santong privately asked Yang Tianzhen to mobilize his online army to label Wu Yusen a traitor.

Shen Santong cannot carry out this kind of accusatory attack publicly.

After all, Chinese people are actually very tolerant.

He was also tolerant back then.

I'm very sensitive after being reborn, purely because I'm angry!

The box office battle itself is cruel, let alone the double "Red Cliff".

When the movie is about to be released, Shen Santong will no longer care about his eating manners.

Over the years, he has recruited a lot of professional water armies, and mobilized them all!
Wu Yusen had no way to hide and had to speak out: "Competition among peers should not maliciously slander each other. It was Zhou Runfa who resigned and let Takeshi Kaneshiro play Kong Ming, which caused problems in the original arrangement."

"Takeshi Kaneshiro was a temporary replacement and his performance was very good."

"He is definitely the most handsome man in Asia, and he can make the Japanese people recognize our culture."

This can be regarded as an answer to why the original character was used to play Zhuge Liang.

Wu Yusen felt the pressure.

After the premiere, all the directors and stars from Hong Kong who attended the event came to him for advice.

The on-site effect was extremely explosive and powerful!
Several comparison pictures made by netizens began to go viral.

Some netizens pointed out that when Wu's version of "Red Cliff" was being promoted, the horizontal poster in the mainland and the poster of "300 of Sparta" were exactly the same except for the background and the soldiers' costumes.

After Shen Santong's publicity and promotion department saw this, they immediately followed up and hyped it up.

In the previous life, Wu Yusen's "Red Cliff" was backed by China Film Corporation, and he really had to cover his mouth in various ways.

In this life, Shen Santong conducted a comprehensive review and investigation on it.

Shen Santong thought this was a scandal.

However, he was wrong.

Zhang Jiazhen, the producer of Wu's version of "Red Cliff", said that "Red Cliff" can be regarded as the Chinese version of "300 Spartans".

7 month 3 day.

The double "Red Cliff" is officially released.

Same subject, same time!

These are basically the only two movies in the cinema. A brutal fight!

It is countless times more brutal than the so-called city derby, and it is truly a competition where it’s either you or me.

Nothing much to say, just do it!

Wu's version of "Red Cliff" distributed the prepared press release, allowing media professionals and film critics to report and promote it.

Zhuge Liang played a huge role!
Zhuge Liang appears in handsome costume, leaning over and using his ears to determine the position of Cao's army.

Zhuge Liang went to Soochow to find Sun Quan and proposed an alliance. All the civil officials of Soochow were in favor of peace. Zhuge Liang used provocation to persuade Sun Quan to resist Cao.

With two strong teams, relive "A Better Tomorrow"!
Although Zhuge Liang played by Takeshi Kaneshiro is very handsome, Zhou Yu played by Liang Chaowei is also calm and mature enough.

Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu staged a double strong confrontation.

The conversation between Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang is also very interesting.

The first time they met, they had the following conversation: "You're still fanning yourself when it's so cold?"

"I need to stay calm all the time."

"I don't think you're someone who can't calm down."

In the Wu camp, Zhuge Liang commented on Zhou Yu's formation: "This is the Changshan Long Snake Formation, but it's a pity that this formation is outdated."

Zhou Yu was very dissatisfied: "You said my formation is outdated. Then what do you think is not outdated?"

Zhuge Liang replied calmly: "If it is used at the right time, it will never be out of date."

In addition to their acting competition during the dialogue, Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang also had a great "qin duel".

Zhou Yu appreciated Zhuge Liang's talents, and Zhuge Liang heard Zhou Yu's determination to fight against Cao from the sound of his piano. The two of them appreciated each other and could not help but fall in love with each other.

Restore history!

In the 2-hour and 36-minute long first part of "Red Cliff", Wu Yusen abandoned many of the humorous elements in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

While restoring history, the film also incorporates modern lines and technological elements, such as Zhang Fei using the "Returning Light Technique" to repel the cavalry.

Be bold and innovative!

At the end of the film, Sun Shangxiang, played by Xiaoyanzi, lures Cao's army into the Bagua formation for a fight.

The film boldly innovates the plot. After Cao Cao was defeated, he revealed that the reason he attacked the Eastern Wu was for Xiao Qiao, which also became the introduction to the next episode of "Red Cliff".

The highlight is still the sex scene!
"Lust, Caution" proves that passionate scenes can be hyped up effectively.

With box office revenue of over 100 million in less than a week, the investors will naturally continue to build on their successful experience.

Passionate play!

Xiao Qiao and Zhou Yu were affectionate for 2 minutes.

As a war was about to break out, Sun Quan required his generals not to bring their families to Chibi, but Zhou Yu decided to bring his wife Xiao Qiao along to express his love for her.

Then the two began the sex scene that appeared in the trailer, which lasted about 2 minutes.

This scene was shot very subtly and beautifully, with Lin Chi-ling half-exposing her breasts and showing off her beautiful legs. Don't miss it!

7 month 4 day.

at night.

Wu Yusen paced back and forth, very anxious.

Zhang Jiazhen said: "Don't worry, our publicity is very good, Shen Santong doesn't understand commercial blockbusters."

Wu Yusen glanced at Wu Kebo who was sitting on the sofa and said, "We invested so much money, but you are too lazy to follow up with the publicity?"

Wu Kebo smiled. If the scriptwriter hadn't forced him to take the blame, he wouldn't even have participated in the promotion of Red Cliff. "My heart is not good. But you, great director, why are you so anxious?"

Wu Yusen asked back: "Am I anxious?"

Ding!
The sound of a text message rang out.

Wu Yusen jumped up like a spring and reached for his cell phone reflexively.

After thinking about it, he still stood there without moving.

Zhang Jiazhen, who was standing by, saw that he didn't move and quickly picked up the phone on the coffee table.

After taking a look, his expression changed.

Wu Yusen had a bad feeling: "Tell me, how much."

Zhang Jiazhen forced a smile: "Preliminary statistics show that it is 28 million, which is a very high box office result on a weekday!"

Wu Yusen felt disappointed.

The single-day box office record in mainland China has been raised to 48 million by Shen Santong, a shortfall of 20 million.

Wu Kebo held on to a glimmer of hope and asked, "Where's Shen Santong's?"

Zhang Jiazhen paused: "Fifty million."

Wu Kebo's will to fight to the death was completely gone, and he added, "Almost twice as many! You are vulnerable!"

Wu Yusen's hands trembled slightly, and then he calmed down.

Don't panic.

This is what happened to the U.S. stock market before. There was a small adjustment, and then it started to rise again in May and started to fall in June.

The low point is a good opportunity to buy at the bottom.

Others are afraid of him but he is excited!
Wu Yusen said: "It's just a temporary adjustment, waiting for word of mouth to ferment!"
