Chapter 423 Map Cannon! It Collapsed! (33)

at the same time.

Shen Santong was also waiting for the box office statistics. After receiving the text message, he waved his fist fiercely: "Fifty-one million! Wu Yusen's two thousand and seven! It's an order of magnitude higher!"

Director Chen couldn't help but let out a low growl.

When he realized what was happening, he was shocked.

I looked around and everyone seemed to be going crazy.

He was relieved that no one noticed his gaffe.

Movie box office, the intuitive numbers are really exciting!

Shen Santong then ordered, "Focus on Wu Yusen's Red Cliff. Attack the script and the actors! Attack the plot!"

After the official release, Shen Santong learned the plot of Wu Yusen's "Red Cliff".

There are some changes from the previous life, but not big overall.

In fact, he could have learned about it in advance through China Film Group’s channels, but he didn’t.

A fair and direct defeat.

There is no need to resort to any tricks.

Director Chen took a deep breath!
Shen Santong was too ruthless. He focused on one point and won so much. It was a bit cruel.

But he didn't say much.

Observe and learn.

He hasn't acted in a commercial blockbuster movie for many years. There were many big stars in Zhang Yimou's "Hero", but he was inconspicuous.

It's sad to say.

Among all the actors and creators of "Red Cliff", he is the only one who has played a major role in a commercial blockbuster.

People like Feng Yuanzheng, Zhou Jie, Huang Xiaoming and Lu Yi are very talented in the field of TV dramas.

The movie didn't stand a chance.

Especially Zhou Jie, Huang Xiaoming and Lu Yi, who had always been competing against each other secretly in the past, were all very excited at this moment.

too bitter!
This type of young actor really has no chance of making it in the film industry.

Even he, an old boy, is like this!
Huang Xiaoming is relatively better and knows how to deal with things, but he is just better and the situation is not much better.

There is a trend in the entertainment industry that is constantly squeezing out this type of actors from the mainland.

7 month 4 day.

Shen Santong crew roadshow.

Post-screening discussion.

An audience member asked about the box office: "Director Shen, you broke your own first-day record yesterday, the highest single-day box office record, what do you think?"

Shen Santong said directly: "This proves that it is easy to succeed if we tell our own stories well and tell stories that the audience likes."

"On the contrary, some historical blockbusters are just covered with history."

"They are just a bunch of disgusting people who live like whining without any reason and always feel that they are the only one who is sober while everyone else is drunk."

"In their minds, the Mandate of Heaven is only that North American country, and the universal world can only originate from the ancient civilization north of the Mediterranean."

"It's impossible to even help them up. If you put a cushion on their knees, they will feel that they are not kneeling piously enough and will feel uneasy!"

"I think it is a sign of mental illness to belittle one's own country's history and praise foreign countries' preferences."

"One must trample on one's own dignity and personality, licking and kneeling down to other countries or white people, in order to gain psychological pleasure."

"Any behavior that might cater to their master's authority, no matter how small, will be immediately followed by barking."

"Even if the master doesn't even look at him for this, so what?"

"Being trampled and ignored by their masters actually turns them on more."

"Our history is so good and our culture is so profound. We just need to use normal materials and show them, and there will be no shortage of audience support."

"Our market is already sufficient to support the cost of our films. It is clear that the mainland market has become the number one market for Chinese-language films!"

“We, the audience, are so pitiful!”

“I have movie tickets and I spend money, but I can’t buy the movies I want to watch.”

“Too cute!”

“If there is a good movie, don’t hesitate to support it!”

"I can achieve this because we, the audience, have given me unlimited rewards!"

clap clap clap!
There was thunderous applause in the cinema.

The actors were trembling and unable to speak.

Even someone as famous as Director Chen can't say anything.

Shen Santong is really firing a map cannon.

This is the director's status!

Even an actor like Director Chen cannot criticize Zhang Yimou.

Even ordinary directors can't do it. At least not at this point in time.

In later generations, as the profession of director became more prevalent, it became possible.

Shen Santong directly uses the map cannon!

First of all, it completely killed Wu Yusen’s "Red Cliff"!
It's a bit aggressive and ugly.

Very normal.

That's the box office fight.

Real money, hundreds of millions of profits.

How can there be any talk of being polite and courteous when it comes to naked struggle for interests!
Of course it's best to crush it to death as soon as possible.

The harder he steps on others, the more it proves his status and establishes his authority.

Personal grudges are not very important. Stealing his work on the theme of "Red Cliff" is just a small grudge.

Of course, there are also emotions pent up in my heart.

It takes many years for a good historical film to be released.

There are no serious movies like costume history and magical history that can show a good historical appearance.

Shen Santong was not just criticizing the costume movies, he was really angry.

The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru.

English is spoken throughout the film, and most of the characters are foreigners.

Then it was invested in and filmed by Dongda University, commemorating the stories of British prisoners of war being abused by the Japanese, being sunk by US submarines, the British people trying their best to survive, and the descendants of these British prisoners of war missing their ancestors.

A documentary commemorating foreigners will be shown in the country, and the students of Dongda University will pay for the tickets.

The key point is, why did these British soldiers come to Hong Kong Island?

To colonize.

These British prisoners of war were captured by Japanese troops on Hong Kong Island.

What they were guarding was the colony of the University of Tokyo, which was occupied by Britain from the University of Tokyo.

A few years later, we had to bombard the University of East China and fight against our own troops on the peninsula.

Ridiculous or not?
Finally, this documentary will be released in the country.

A filmmaker with funds, ability and media channels.

Why don't we take pictures of our country's martyrs, dig out the stories behind and commemorate our country's heroes, look for their descendants, and re-present those living soldiers?

The key is that a movie "Dongji Island" directed by Guan Hu in 2024 is also being filmed.

The subject matter and content are exactly the same as this record.

As expected, the film will continue to be shown in China, and people in Tokyo will pay money to watch it.

It is in this way that they, the filmmakers, devoutly commemorate and miss the white people who, in their minds, colonized Southeast University.

In this life, Shen Santong has been in this circle and understands it.

I really understand.

Why do directors from the University of Tokyo always make movies like "The Battle at Lake Changjin" and "The Eight Hundred"?

The way they treat white people is different from the way they treat Chinese people.

The kind that immediately changed its expression!
They can’t even make any money from real money in front of these “people”!
Such a firm stance!
Shen Santong tried his best to squeeze the living space of Wu Yusen's "Red Cliff".

A series of shells were prepared.

However, he didn't expect that Wu Yusen's "Red Cliff" would collapse after the first shot was fired.

In other words, it collapsed before he fired.

7 month 4 day.

Friday.

Shen Santong's "Red Cliff" set a new box office record of 57 million.

The box office of Wu Yusen's "Red Cliff" dropped to 26 million.

This is the second day of the show!

Shen Santong's "Red Cliff" grossed over 100 million yuan in two days!
It set a record for the highest single-day box office and the fastest record to break 100 million yuan.

Saturday, April 7.

Shen Santong made 70 million from "Red Cliff"!

Once again setting a series of box office records in film history.

On the other hand, Wu Yusen's "Red Cliff" fell again, barely breaking 20 million.

collapsed.

Shen Santong didn't put in any effort and Wu Yusen's "Red Cliff" collapsed.
