Life in the Light and Shadow of Chinese Entertainment

Planning before acting has always been Wu Yang's guiding principle.

However, to achieve the ultimate goal, the initial investment is also very large.

According to calculations by a professional company, the total investment to meet Wu Yang's requirements would be around 10 billion.

Moreover, the cost will increase year by year over time.

Fortunately, with "Manchester by the Sea" and "Love is Not Blind" as a buffer, Wu Yang is very optimistic about both of these films.

In addition, since "Journey to the West: The Love Story of a Fallen City" has not yet been filmed, and as the main filming location, it requires various explosions.

Therefore, existing factory buildings only need to be modified by setting up a single side of the building.

In any case, Wu Yang's requirements for the behind-the-scenes team were that there should be many large-scale scenes and explosions to demonstrate the destructive power of various monsters.

The industrial park covers 300 acres, with a total area of ​​20 square meters, but only 1 square meters is a standard football field.

This is the size of 20 standard football fields, with hundreds of factories of all kinds and thousands of buildings and workshops.

The roads within the park are interconnected, and some of them are full of potholes.

The factory has now been completely relocated and is now completely vacant.

The location is large and spacious enough for the behind-the-scenes team to work on, and the earliest filming of "Journey to the West: The Love of the City" will be completed is the second half of next year.

The revenue sharing from "Manchester by the Sea" and "Love is Not Blind" will be used for preliminary preparations.

If that's not enough, you can ask Fenju for help in applying for a loan, which should solve the problem.

The post-production of "Journey to the West: The Love Story of a Fallen City" will take one and a half to two years, and it might not be until its release.

The film and television theme park has just been completed, and a dream collaboration would be perfect!

Friday, June 11.

At 11:11:11 AM, "Love is Not Blind" was officially released worldwide!

The cat factory went to great lengths to gather these 5 pairs for Double 11, due to the weather.

It wasn't held outdoors, and the indoor venue couldn't accommodate that many fans.

In the end, to accommodate the demands of all parties, Master Han directly canceled the live movie screening.

It was transformed into a large-scale press conference, allowing fans to enter by lottery and ask questions alongside the media.

The atmosphere was lively, and Liu Yifei even went on stage to sing a song. Lucky fans also got the chance to ask questions.

The media present also received shopping vouchers from Cat Factory, making the trip worthwhile!

After the press conference, Wang Changtian hosted a banquet for the main creators and guests at the Great Hall of the People.

The event didn't end until 4 p.m. Liu Yifei and Taozi helped Wu Yang into the nanny van.

"If you can't drink, what are you trying to prove?"

Watching Wu Yang stagger around, Liu Yifei felt both annoyed and amused, but also a little sorry for him.

Because Liu Yifei's relatives are visiting, she can't touch anything cold these days, and she can't drink alcohol either.

Today is also the global premiere of the movie. Not only did Wang Ju and Han Sanye attend the banquet, but they also brought a leader from Qingdu. Various leaders who are affiliated with these three also came along.

In the business sector, a large number of executives have gathered, led by Wang Changtian and the Malaysian general manager of Maochang.

Aside from the cast and crew of "Love is Not Blind," the threshold for being invited to participate is being a top-tier actor.

Therefore, Wang Changtian didn't even bring Deng Chao, let alone substitute for the hosts and their assistants.

As the leading actress in the film, how could Liu Yifei not drink alcohol at a banquet of this scale?

In the past, when Wu Yang was not around, Liu Yifei would tough it out, which resulted in her developing many minor health problems.

Today, Wu Yang stepped forward and, instead of directly saying that her period had arrived, used the excuse of feeling unwell to shield Liu Yifei from drinking.

If it were any other domestic director, even someone of Feng Xiaogang's caliber, they wouldn't receive this much respect.

However, when facing Wu Yang, these leaders and bosses all nodded in agreement with great courtesy.

Not only because Wu Yang is one of the main characters today, but also because the media in the US has exploded!

Manchester by the Sea has been in theaters for 10 days and has a 92% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, but only 91% from critics.

Because it was released on a limited scale, audience ratings are very subjective, and the ratings may decrease as the release area expands.

For a newly released film, maintaining a double rating of over 90% for 10 days is already quite rare!

Moreover, Leonardo DiCaprio, as an international superstar, already has a strong influence, while Wu Yang is an internationally renowned director.

It also gained the praise of many professionals, which made Wu Yang go from being somewhat famous to being widely known.

Moreover, Wu Yang felt that the TV programs recorded at the time were just so-so after they were broadcast one after another.

Unexpectedly, the response was very good, and Wu Yang gained a lot of support from passersby as a result!

The bigwigs present today all learned about these events through the news and media, so they were very respectful.

Wu Yang overestimated his alcohol tolerance, and was already seven or eight parts drunk by the end of the party.

This earned him teasing from Han Sanye and others, who were known as drinking gods.

Which of them wasn't a powerful figure who grew up immersed in alcohol? Even if Wu Yang is young and has strong resistance.

After downing a pound and a half of baijiu, they were already quite drunk. On the other hand, Master Han and the others remained calm and chatted as if nothing had happened!

When Wu Yang regained consciousness, it was already 4 a.m.

First, I picked up my phone, checked the time, and sure enough, there were many missed calls and unread text messages.

Looking at Liu Yifei, who was curled up next to her like a cat, Wu Yang quietly got out of bed with her phone in hand.

First, I went to the bathroom to relieve myself, and then I went to the kitchen to drink a bottle of milk.

I felt much better after that. Although I didn't completely black out, the hangover was still unpleasant.

However, some social obligations require drinking, and many business deals are actually discussed and settled over the dinner table.

In this respect, the same applies throughout history and across the world; it's just that China, as an ancient country, is more widely known!

Sitting in a chair in the restaurant, Wu Yang turned on a set of dining lights and then checked his phone.

Among the missed calls were those from Wang Changtian, Pang Hai, and a senior executive in charge of promotion at Maochang.

The unread text messages contained many more names, including the three people who called, close friends, and cast and crew members from "Love is Not Blind".

The messages from these people were all very similar, and in short, they were all congratulating Wu Yang.

"Love is Not Blind" grossed 8800 million yuan on its opening day, breaking the record for the highest daily box office for a domestic film.

Yesterday was Friday, the start of the weekend, so the movie theater attracted many couples and singles that night.

Cat Factory has been promoting the concept of Singles' Day (November 11th) for three years.

Not only has the annual sales volume repeatedly broken new records, but it has also influenced offline physical stores to follow suit.

This original festival has deeply resonated with people and gained strong recognition from couples and singles, becoming a unique Valentine's Day in China!

It is particularly favored by the restaurant and hotel service industry, which will naturally boost the sales of the entire industry.

This is a feast for capital and a carnival for young people!
