Perfect Life

Simply speaking of the quality of the film "A Fairy Tale in Autumn", Lu Lingxi is of course confident. From the script, to the shooting, to the performance, and to the final appearance that will be presented later, she is confident.

But she really has no confidence in how high the box office can get for this movie.

Although she is already one of the most famous female directors in China with the role of "Thirteen Aunt", "Following Love to the End" and "Da Ming Palace Ci", although "Fairy Tale of Autumn" has Li Qian and Qin Jingjing A pair of movie stars and actresses joined, in fact, there is enough guarantee for her to have a certain confidence.

But for the first time directing a film, coupled with the worry and anxiety in the past month of editing, she was at the most unconfident time, no matter how much Li Qian encouraged her, no matter how she was relieved, she even put "Use this Let's set an example for those people in "Fairy Tale of Autumn"!" These words were said to cheer her up, but when the meal was over, Li Qian found that she seemed to be even more uneasy. some.

This is also impossible.

The common problem of rookie directors is not to mention rookie directors, and old drivers can't escape this.

In fact, for many directors, before the film is drawn, they have already begun to worry about whether their next film will be popular!

Just like when a starting point author is about to finish writing a book, do you think he will not worry about the results of the next book? He's worried about shit!

Only by success again and again can that kind of self-confidence and confidence be fully cultivated.

Just like San Shao and Tomato, they will no longer worry about whether they will hit the street or not.

In fact, back in the days of "The Legend of the New White Snake" and "My Sassy Girl", Li Qian was still worried, so he kept improving, even though he had the confidence of the successful and glorious history of that other time and space. Do it, and then it will slowly get better.

When "Once Upon a Time" was a big hit, and when "Red Sorghum" not only won the award but also sold well, as a director, even if it was just a director whose main direction was "copying and re-creation", his confidence began to really rise. Up to now, even if he spends 500 million yuan to make a movie, he has not hesitated.

And Lulingxi lacks similar success.

In this regard, Li Qian did not force any further comfort. After eating and chatting for a while, he drove Lu Lingxi back to her new home and told her not to forget to participate in "Crazy Stone" the day after tomorrow. Premiere and then drive home.

It is already twenty-eight years old, and as Lu Lingxi said, he does have many people who need to accompany him.

It's good to say that there is a well-liked main room like Wang Jinglu there. Although everyone still wants to be on New Year's Eve and the New Year's Day, Li Qian accompanies Wang Jinglu, and no one can say anything. None of the women around him would pull their faces down and do some excessive things.

But not children.

They have all grown up slowly, and they can remember a lot of things that happened now.

The Spring Festival is the most important reunion festival for the Chinese people. Children must be together and spend the New Year's Eve with their father, ushering in the first day of the new year.

This is the atmosphere of home that Chinese people value most.

So this year, on New Year's Eve, He Runqing took Li Cha and Zhou Hao took Li Shesheng to live in the big house of Li Qian and Wang Jinglu. Xie Bing also came and looked at Li Shesheng eagerly. Three little brothers and sisters, can't be greedy, after teasing this tease that.

Instead, Wang Jingxue insisted not to stay here and went back to her parents.

On New Year's Eve, in Li Qian's small family, there will be only one Liao Liao who will continue to stay in the United States to prepare for her next concert, which will take three months to travel across North America.

Li Qian once asked Qi Jie's meaning, but she refused to come, so she went back to Jinan Mansion to accompany her parents in the afternoon of the twenty-seventh day of the new year.

Cheng Su bottle was also unwilling to come.

She doesn't use any excuses like attending the Spring Festival Gala, but simply says that she's not famous anyway, so why go there! And she doesn't want a title either.

On the contrary, Jiang Yiyi mumbled a few words, which probably meant that he wanted to wait for the Spring Festival Gala to come over and eat a bowl of dumplings at Li Qian's house, even if it was a holiday.

Li Qian instead refused.

She is very shaky now, and she has a temperament that likes to show off and pretend to be coercive. She is now in Shuntianfu, not the pitiful "homeless" she described herself in the past.

Of course, Li Qian called in advance and asked his parents to come over to celebrate the New Year together.

The old couple thought of their grandchildren, but on the phone, the mother hesitated for a long time, and finally the father answered the phone. Li Qian felt that the old couple probably thought that their house was too messy, and his daughter-in-law was too chaotic. Several of them, they are really a bit big, and they don't want to get involved in Li Qian's mess.

In fact, it is indeed a bit big.

Whether it’s Wang Jinglu, or Zhou Cong, He Runqing, and Xie Bing, none of them have the temperament to get into trouble. Even if it’s not the New Year’s Eve, when they get together, peace is still peaceful, but you have to say that they are really close as sisters. It is not easy for everyone to spend a reunion year together.

Fortunately, Wang Jinglu's popularity is good, and although she is an old woman, everyone she meets is called her sister. It's still to show Li Qian and Wang Jing a little face, plus everyone knows that she is usually like that, and no one cares about it. The most important thing is that Li Shesheng and Li Cha have already said that they will make trouble. When the two children were there, the atmosphere in the house was always lively and jubilant.

Therefore, Li Qian's first "wives and concubines" in the history of this small family was relatively successful.

Everyone ate New Year's Eve dinner, drank wine, watched the Spring Festival Gala teasing their children, and celebrated New Year's Eve.

In this year's Huaxia TV Spring Festival Gala, Minghu Culture almost occupies half the sky , a large number of new singers who have debuted through their own discoveries or talent shows are also becoming the backbone of the current domestic music scene.

Of course, without the real top powers such as Li Qian, Liao Liao, Zhou Hao, and Rose Power, Zhou Ye, as the leader of Minghu Culture's appearance in music, still seems to lack a bit of weight, and is a little bit unable to hold the scene. I felt that this year's Spring Festival Gala just contacted Li Qian through various means, trying to get him to appear on the Spring Festival Gala again, so I contacted him three or four times, but Li Qian thought about it and refused.

As we all know, the Spring Festival Gala is the best stage to promote newcomers. Every year, newcomers become famous through the Spring Festival Gala, and what Li Qian lacks most now is precisely fame. If he makes his debut, he will definitely get a lot of attention. First, he is not uncommon, and secondly, he will block the newcomer's road to fame, why bother!

The youngest fell asleep early. At around nine o'clock, Li Shesheng and Li Cha were too sleepy to open their eyes, so they were coaxed to sleep by their respective mothers.

Then, a few people were drinking wine and chatting without a word, and they actually saw the New Year's bell ringing at the Spring Festival Gala in one breath, and then went back to their rooms.

The embarrassment is still a bit, but it is not as serious as Li Qian thought before.

He thought to himself: This is a good start!

…………

On the first day of the new year, on February 6, 2005, "Crazy Stone" officially landed in major theaters across the country.

That morning, many invited guests rushed to Minghu Studios in Shuntianfu, and many of them couldn't hide their dark circles even with make-up.

Originally, Minghu Culture didn't like to hold any premiere ceremonies. But with the success of "Big Name", now Feng Bicheng, as one of the most famous directors in China, has made it necessary for Minghu Culture to hold a premiere ceremony for him.

Qi Jie didn't come, but Li Qian came to the platform in person.

A large number of directors, actors and singers under Minghu Culture come to the platform to congratulate as long as they are in Shuntian Prefecture. Feng Bicheng's father, Feng Yumin, is a leading figure in the domestic TV drama circle, and his connections are far more than Li Qian's. It needs to be wider. Except for a very few people who have little to do with Li Qian and Minghu Culture, there are basically people in this circle who have a head and face and are free.

The photos of Li Qian and Feng Bicheng talking together at the scene were specially arranged to take a lot of photos. Although Minghu Culture has been trying its best to suppress news, there were some bad negative news about Feng Bicheng during and after the release of "The Big Name". It has always existed. Among them, the most attacked and criticized is undoubtedly that he had attacked Li Qian from behind with the great support of Li Qian before.

This time, the photo was specially requested by the propaganda department in advance.

With these photos, all the "rumours" can naturally be self-defeating.

Of course, in fact, when the script of "Crazy Stone" was given to Feng Bicheng, for Li Qian, this matter was already revealed. When he spoke to Feng Bicheng, he didn't have to lie at all.

When "Crazy Stone" was about to be finished, he also went to Chongqing Prefecture to stand up for Feng Bicheng and congratulate him. It is not easy to restore the intimacy as before, but as a superior, the relationship between the two is not easy. It's more comfortable now.

Moreover, even Qi Jie now has to admit that among these directors under Minghu Culture, Feng Bicheng's loyalty and conversion to the company and Li Qian are probably the strongest.

Even Han Shunzhang may not be able to compare.

In recent years, Feng Bicheng, even if he is a big hit with "The Big Name", is still very low-key, even so low-key that he doesn't look like himself at all.

This time with the new film released, he is as low-key as always. When asked by reporters about the box office during an interview, he modestly said, "To make a comedy is that everyone has a good time watching the picture. As long as I don't lose money, I can continue to make it. , anyway, everyone supports me, don't ask too much, just keep the capital!"

When the reporters asked why he chose to schedule the movie on the first day of the new year, when "almost no one would go to the movies", he smiled and said: "That's not what I said, a few years ago that At that time, our company's film opening work "My Sassy Girl" was scheduled for a few days after the Spring Festival. In that year, the box office was quite good. Lord Qian had confidence in me and asked me when I wanted to set it. I said it would be fine any day, and Lord Qian said, let’s just go to the Spring Festival stall! I said yes!”

"Spring Festival gear?"

"Yes! Spring Festival stall! The first day of the new year, the first day of the new year!"

…………

In the current time and space, even until now, there have been precedents like "My Sassy Girl" that had a big box office hit during the Spring Festival, but the concept of "Spring Festival stalls" is still completely absent.

The wave of commercialization of movies has been in place for more than ten years. The concept of commercial movies and commercial blockbusters has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. With the gradual integration with the world movie market, especially the integration with Hollywood, many European and American movies, especially North American movies. The concept of the market, gradually imported, has now become some fixed concepts in the Chinese film market.

Such as summer time, such as Valentine's Day, and so on.

Of course, different cultural backgrounds and different people's living customs all lead to huge differences between China and the United States. Therefore, if there are imported ones, there will naturally be local ones.

The United States has the Independence Day holiday, China does not, and there is not a time period, but China has the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Americans celebrate Christmas, and it is very important. It is an important time for audiences to watch movies. Therefore, Christmas and New Year's Day in the United States are very important reservations for family-friendly movies, but when we come to China, New Year's Day is just a starting point. Now, since Zhao Meicheng, China has created the so-called "New Year's Eve", which is to rush around New Year's Day and before the Spring Festival in one breath.

The Spring Festival is a festival unique to China. But over the years, the concept of the Spring Festival, for the Chinese people, the biggest meaning is the two words go home.

During this period of time, the film market often does not have much market to speak of.

Spring Festival stalls are not even a concept.

Sometimes, when the Spring Festival is in February, and it coincides with Valentine's Day to a certain extent, it will be forced to be a little hotter, but it is also limited. If it is not good, Valentine's Day will not be celebrated.

The market affects the movie~www.wuxiaspot.com~The movie will affect the market.

It is precisely because the Chinese people have a lot of habits in the past that fewer people watch movies during the Spring Festival, so the distribution company will not take good movies to release during this time. The idea of ​​​​movies has led to a colder box office market during this period.

However, Li Qian firmly believes that in fact, with the development of modern society and the continuous upsurge of the economy, people are not only rich, but also the way of celebrating the festival and the concept of consumption during the Spring Festival are also greatly changing.

So, for the Chinese New Year, if you want to have a good time, let's try the "Spring Festival" with a comedy movie first!

Wishing everyone a happy new year in advance, I wish you all a happy and prosperous new year!

For the next three days, the day before the year before, and the two days after the new year, there will be tomb sweeping, ancestor worship, reunion, and drinking. I can't guarantee that there will be updates, but maybe there will be updates. In short, the update is not strong, please forgive me!

From the third day of the new year, it should be guaranteed that there will be an update.
