From Composer to Entertainment Superstar

Many people think that the Lunar New Year stalls and the Spring Festival stalls are the same concept, but they are not.

The concept of Lunar New Year stalls first appeared in Hong Kong. Since the 1980s, every year at the end of the year, big names and stars in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong would get together to make several lively movies for the audience.

For example, Uncle Lung's "Lucky Star", Fa Ge's "The God of Gamblers", and Mr. Xing's "A Happy Event in the Family" were not released until 1995, when the first Hong Kong New Year film was released in the mainland.

Our country's masterpiece "Red Zone". At that time, a movie ticket only cost a few yuan, but "Red Zone" won a box office of 35 million in one fell swoop.

Two years later, the first domestic Chinese New Year film "Party A and Party B" debuted. After that, Xiaogang Pao's name was associated with New Year films, including his four-character trilogy "See You or Be Parted", "Endless"

", every one of them is a New Year's film.

After that, the Lunar New Year film has become a must-win period for blockbusters every year. "Kung Fu" in 2004, "The Promise" in 2005, and "The City of Golden Armor" in 2006, these Lunar New Year films have all become domestically produced films of the year.

The film box office champion.

However, the New Year films during this period mainly celebrated New Year's Day. At that time, few audiences would watch movies during the Spring Festival. Most cinemas, like supermarkets, closed on the afternoon of New Year's Eve.

The first one to break the deadlock was "Fearless" released in 2006. The box office for the entire Spring Festival that year was only 80 million, but "Fearless" alone took in 20 million. By 2010, a group of mysterious blue creatures appeared,

To make the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies during the Spring Festival even stronger, this movie is "Avatar". Although "Avatar" was released on January 4th and is not an orthodox Spring Festival movie, the fire is so strong that it continues to burn.

The Spring Festival came more than a month later. During the seven-day holiday of the Spring Festival, "Avatar" took in a box office of 100 million. It was at this time that the entire film industry began to realize that the Spring Festival period was feasible and feasible.

In 2013, a star-studded movie "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" grossed 530 million in box office in seven days, breaking more than 20 box office records. The box office on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year alone was 126 million. This was also the first single-day box office in China.

With over 100 million Chinese-language movies, the Spring Festival stalls have been on the rise since then, but the once king Lunar New Year stalls have begun to dim.

During the Spring Festival in 2016, "The Mermaid" took in a box office of 1.5 billion. By the end of 2016, "The Great Wall" and "Railway Tigers" were unexpectedly lukewarm, and the box office for the Lunar New Year period dropped for the first time. It was from this point on

A watershed has begun, and the Lunar New Year stalls that celebrate New Year’s Day are no longer a match for the Spring Festival stalls.

This time and space is similar. The highest box office record in the Chinese film industry was born during the Spring Festival. It was a star-studded suspense blockbuster "The Miracle of Survival" filmed by Huayi three years ago. The box office in the mainland was as high as 1.62 billion.

Also starting from this movie, the Lunar New Year film is no longer a match for the Spring Festival film.

Nowadays, although the Lunar New Year period is also a very important period in the entertainment industry, the Spring Festival period after the Lunar New Year period is the battleground. This year, only 18 movies were released in the Lunar New Year period, but more than 40 movies were released in the Spring Festival period.

"Farewell My Concubine" took 680 million box office in 7 days. This trend is much stronger than "The Miracle of Survival". "The Miracle of Survival" only took 520 million in the box office after 7 days of release.

Let’s take a look at the other movies released during the Spring Festival. How have they been suppressed by “Farewell My Concubine”. Apart from “Farewell, My Concubine”, the highest box office among the movies released during the Spring Festival is the military blockbuster “Sniper” shot by Star Media.

After 7 days, the box office has reached 220 million yuan. When it is released, it is expected to have a box office of about 650 million yuan.

It seems good, but the problem is that the total cost of "Sniper" is higher than that of "Farewell My Concubine", with a cost of up to 180 million. The total box office must be at least about 600 million to recover the cost. In other words, this movie is huge

The probability is that the cost can only be recovered, and even if it can be earned, it will not be much, and the Spring Festival holiday, the most important period of the year, is wasted.

Another high-cost blockbuster produced by Huayi, "Havoc in Heaven", was even worse. It cost 170 million, but only received 200 million at the box office in 7 days. It is estimated that it will be difficult to recover the cost.

The two Hollywood blockbusters were not much better, with a box office of 180 million and 170 million respectively. However, the Chinese market is not their main market, Europe and the United States are, and this box office is acceptable to them.

Not to mention other films, none of the highest-grossing films have exceeded 100 million.

There is no way, "Farewell My Concubine" is too popular and occupies a too high film schedule. Now, except for Huayi, Starry Sky, and Great Wall's own theater chains, other theaters, "Farewell My Concubine" has a film schedule at least

More than 20%.

One movie occupies one-fifth of the film schedule, and the other 40 or so movies account for four-fifths of the film schedule. It is surprising that the box office is high.

Seeing the box office performance of "Farewell My Concubine", Cheng Kun and other heads of several giant companies remained silent.

It is very difficult to suppress Wang Xuan alone. Now that Chen Kai has turned around again, it will be difficult to suppress Tianhai in the future.

A legendary director is very difficult to suppress. Just like this "Farewell My Concubine", didn't they suppress it? In the early days, in addition to Star Cinema and Huamei Cinema, "Farewell My Concubine" was scheduled to be released in other theaters

The rate will definitely not exceed 5%. This is a large-scale production with a cost of 160 million, so a 5% filming rate is considered very low.

But later, the reputation of "Farewell My Concubine" exploded, and the screening rate of "Farewell My Concubine" in other theaters was suddenly raised to 20% by the audience. Now "Farewell My Concubine" is a big hit, and Chen Kai has

With the aura of a legendary director, in the future, except for theaters directly controlled by giants such as Huayi, the film scheduling rate of other theaters will not be low. After all, capital will not be incompatible with traffic.

Moreover, the screenwriter of "Farewell My Concubine" is Wang Xuan. This guy can even write such a script that spans more than half a century and two or three decades. His screenwriting ability is simply terrifying.

There is no doubt that he is a top screenwriter, and it will be even harder to suppress him in the future.

In the next half month, "Farewell My Concubine" was still going strong. By the last day of February, the single-day box office was still 65 million. After 19 days, the total box office had totaled 1.6 billion, and there were still 11 days left before it was offline.

A box office of over 2 billion shouldn't be a problem.

In addition, Tianhai also contacted overseas channels. On the 14th, "Farewell My Concubine" was released in major theaters around the world. The response was very good, with a global box office of 20 million eagle national dollars in one week.

By the time it's released, it shouldn't be a problem to get an overseas box office of 50 million eagle national currency. Converted into Chinese national currency, the box office is close to 400 million.

It can be considered a big hit.

When "Farewell My Concubine" was in full swing, on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Xuan, his parents and his younger sister Wang Qian returned to Xiangjiang, and Wang Xuan also returned to the Magic City to continue filming "The Condor Shooting".

If it goes on non-stop, the TV series "The Condor" will probably be filmed in four to five months, but Wang Xuan has too many things to do. Last month, he helped Chen Xueqi win the endorsement of Huayao Mobile Phone, which was delayed for more than ten days, and he has to attend the Spring Festival Gala later.

It was delayed for another ten days. The annual music festival in mid-March is expected to be delayed for a few more days.

Wang Xuan estimates that it will take at least the end of March to finish shooting "The Condor". It will also need to be edited, submitted for review, and then released online, which is estimated to be in June. From shooting to online, it took almost 10 months, which is not bad.

Time passed unknowingly while Wang Xuan was filming "The Condor Shooting". Near the end of February, Shengshi Chinese website finally couldn't sit still. Because several months had passed since "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer" was completed.

, but none of Luo Qiu’s new books have been found, there is no news at all.

In view of this, the senior management of Shengshi Chinese Network quickly found Ziya: "Ziya, it's been almost half a year. When will Luo Qiu's new book be released? Hasn't he given an answer yet?"

Hearing this, Ziya said: "No, every time I contact him, he says he is very busy. We will talk about the new book later."

"Isn't it okay for you to have a relationship with him? Keep urging him. At the very least, you have to get a confirmation. When will it happen in the future? You can't be too far away, right?"

"I'll try." Ziya said, what can she do if there is such a Buddhist author on the stall? She is also very desperate. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that as long as Luo Qiu opens a new book, a book will cost at least several thousand

With an income of 10,000 yuan, people just don’t take it seriously.

Although she hasn't met Luo Qiu yet, Ziya feels more and more that Luo Qiu is the Wang Xuan of the entertainment industry. Only a person like Wang Xuan would not take tens of millions seriously. If it were her, she would probably be able to write

Shengshi Chinese Network went bankrupt.

"Lord Luoqiu, don't you have any ideas for your new book?" Ziya sent Luoqiu a message in the evening. Because if she sends messages during the day, Luoqiu rarely replies, and usually only replies at night.

Sure enough, Luo Qiu's message came back quickly, a concise and concise message: "I have an idea, but I am a bit busy at the moment and can't write it for the time being."

"When will you have time to write, please give me more accurate information. I'm not urging you, it's your readers who are urging you. When you have time, you can read "Dragon Babu", "Shooting the Condor", "The Condor"

Take a look at the book review section of "" and "The Legend of Heaven and Sword of the Dragon", they are all urging you to write a new book. Everyone supports you so much, you don't want them to wait indefinitely, right?" Ziya replied.

Wang Xuan thought about it. In fact, waiting is not scary. The scary thing is not knowing when the end will be. Wang Xuan estimated that "The Condor Shooting" should be edited in late April, and Tianhai will do the rest.

.At that time, he also had time to write a new book.

Wang Xuan had already thought about what he would write in his new book, and it would most likely be "Swordsman". So he replied: "Then early May."

Ziya was overjoyed to receive the exact reply and replied: "Received. Looking forward to the new book." Then she immediately went to report the good news to the senior management of Shengshi Chinese Network.

The senior management of Shengshi Chinese Network was relieved to learn that Luoqiu would release a new book in early May.

Recently, several major events have occurred in the online literature industry. The first major event is that Chinese Online Group has established a website, 24K Chinese Network. Chinese Online Group is a big player in the publishing industry. It has been successfully listed in Hong Kong and has strong capital.

As soon as 24K Chinese Network was established, it spent a lot of money to poach several great people from Shengshi Chinese Network. Even Platinum Great God Tianqiong who writes fantasy, and Platinum Great God Shi Luoye who writes games were poached by 24K Chinese Network.

This wave, Shengshi Chinese website is really hurting. Why are they so anxious to urge Luoqiu to publish a new book? In fact, they are afraid that Luoqiu will be poached by other websites. Now that they have received the promise of Luoqiu Club to publish a new book in May, they are all relieved.

Take a breath.

Luoqiu is so awesome. With this guy’s ability to attract traffic, if any website poaches him, that website will definitely take off and become the formidable enemy of Shengshi Chinese Network.

The poaching of other great masters will at best cause Shengshi Chinese Network to suffer a lot, and it will take a while to recover. Because those great masters are not irreplaceable, give Shengshi Chinese Network some time, and Shengshi Chinese Network will have confidence.

Make a batch.

Just wait, 24K Chinese Network will definitely regret it. They poached big names like Tianqiong at a high price, thinking that they can take off from the same place and severely damage Shengshi Chinese Network. But they don’t know that the huge group of genuine readers is what makes Shengshi Chinese Network

The foundation of the Internet literary world.

The great gods of Tianqiong and Shiluoyie who were poached will definitely regret it. After leaving Shengshi Chinese Network, they will find that they may not even be able to keep their godhood. Looking at the entire Internet literature world, no website has the reader base of Shengshi Chinese Network.

, not even one-third of the reader base. The godhead is created by readers.

There is a difference between a great god who relies on the resources provided by the platform and a pure natural great god like Wang Xuan. This is why Shengshi Chinese Network does not dare to ask Luo Qiu too much.

Other great masters, all the copyrights are now in the hands of Shengshi Chinese Network, and the copyrights are all agents.

The people from Tianqiong were poached, and 24K Chinese Network spent a lot of money on it. It was also a reason why they were dissatisfied with Shengshi Chinese Network for holding all their copyrights.

Only in Luoqiu, the copyright is still completely in my own hands.

As for the changes in the Internet literary world, Wang Xuan doesn't know about it, and he doesn't take it seriously if he does. Anyway, it has nothing to do with him. As long as he is comfortable at Shengshi Chinese Network, other websites can't poach him even if they want to.

After finishing the phone call with Ziya, Wang Xuan continued filming "The Condor Shooting".

On the other hand, the Chinese Music Association has been very busy since the beginning of February. The reason is that the time for the international music group to perform in China has been determined, and it is set for March 7.

So these days, the Chinese Music Association is usually setting up the venue and mobilizing troops.

By March 5th, the venue had been decorated and all equipment had been checked. For this concert, the Chinese Music Association spent a lot of money. Not only did it coordinate the construction of the Bird's Nest Sports Center, it also borrowed equipment from major entertainment giants.

Top of the line equipment.

In addition, all the people who can fight in the Music Association have been invited.

Lu Zitao also came to the scene that day. He is a piano genius and is quite famous internationally. Most of the international music troupes this time are pianists, and Lu Zitao, the piano genius, must be the main force.

Therefore, Ye Gan, the president of the Music Association, and a group of members greeted Lu Zitao at the door. After everyone exchanged greetings, they returned to the venue. After sitting down, Lu Zitao looked around and did not find the figure he wanted to see.

At this moment, Ye Gan said: "Okay, now that everyone is here, let's discuss how to deal with the arrival of the international music troupe. This is an opportunity for our Chinese music to become famous."

"Wait a minute. Chairman Ye, is everyone here? Where is Teacher Wang Xuan? Why don't you see Teacher Wang Xuan? Did you not invite Wang Xuan?" Lu Zitao asked doubtfully.
