Chapter 186 The overbearing female president is full of blood and resurrected!

After getting the summary of the national box office situation on Sunday, on such a night, countless people all over the country could not sleep all night.

For the Oriental Cinema, it means that after missing the box office explosion of "Red Sorghum" in the first week, it made a wrong bet in the second week. After taking out the maximum screening scale to support "Bad Life" and reducing the screening scale of "Red Sorghum" to the minimum allowed by the screening agreement, in such a weekend when other theaters are making money , they once again gained a much lower than normal market share.

For two consecutive weeks, it is no exaggeration to say that just because of missing "Red Sorghum", the Oriental Cinema has missed at least more than 20 million, and may even be as high as 30 million in operating income.

Zhou Yanghua's depression, anger, and helplessness can be imagined.

As for the producer and distributor of "Bad Life", as well as for director Lu Ping, with the support of such a large-scale screening in the first week of its release, instead of being able to suppress "Red Sorghum", the other party has The extremely high attendance rate has basically meant that "Bad Life" has been difficult to turn over since then-because the advantages and disadvantages of each other are so obvious.

"Red Sorghum" is a literary and artistic film, and it is also a literary and artistic film that has won the grand prize and has a very high popularity and a good reputation. Movies - If a commercial movie doesn't kill it in its first week of release, after that, it's better not to report any more expectations.

After such a first-week box office release, Lu Ping's disappointment and anger, and even Zhou Zhengyang's helplessness and frustration, can be imagined.

But fortunately, for a commercial film with an investment of 40 million to 40 million, and the publicity and distribution expenses are also controlled within 20 million, the first four days of release in the first week received a box office of nearly 53 million, and although the word of mouth is polarized It's amazing, but at least it hasn't completely collapsed. Therefore, there is still a lot of hope for this movie to return to its original cost-of course, it is not feasible to continue to gain the popularity of "Red Sorghum". .

Facts have proved that whether it is awards, word of mouth, force, or box office, "Red Sorghum" and "Bad Life" are really not on the same level.

And such a weekly box office data of over 100 million is naturally a big happy event for Minghu Culture - early the next morning, Qi Jie has already released words, and when the box office breaks 300 million, Minghu Culture will spend millions to hold a celebration feast!

Well, Minghu Culture has never liked to hold celebration banquets.

From the earliest time, Liao Liao and He Runqing's albums have been sold very often, but they have never been done. The albums of the Four Beauties and Rose Power have been sold well, but they have never been done. "Super Girl" is on fire. "Legend of the New White Snake" was a big hit, but it was just a small celebration internally. One person poured half a glass of wine, chatting and laughing, even if it was a celebration - of course, no one will explain that the lake culture is stingy, because whether it is a TV drama , or the movie is a big hit. The red envelopes that Minghu Culture gave to the actors and staff were so big and so cool that they were always praised by the entire industry.

But this time, Qi Jie said in a very high-profile way, we are going to hold a celebration banquet!

The whole Minghu culture is in jubilation.

Li Qian shook his head and smiled, and went with her.

He knew that Qi Jie was happy, and it was the kind of happiness he couldn't contain.

When it comes to writing songs, making albums, and even singing and releasing albums by himself, in short, in the music industry, Li Qian has almost no one dared to be provocative since his debut. , But to be honest, even at that time, the Feixiang Band, who had retired for many years, had a certain gap with the Four Beauties.

Therefore, they are looking for faults, and to a greater extent, they are actually rubbing off the popularity, and they want to sell their albums by taking advantage of the popularity of the four beauties. What's more, not long after their provocation, Li Qian almost slapped the other party away with a slap - "Once You" was a big hit in Asia, and the Spring Festival Gala was extremely popular in ten minutes, and then the Feixiang Band became honest!

Because of this, Qi Jie was also very unhappy even though the Flying Band criticized the Four Beauties, but she was also unhappy for a while. Li Qian flipped her hand and slapped the other party away, so she couldn't talk about it in her heart. What's not to be angry about - from her heart, she doesn't feel that the other party's provocation is really a big deal.

But this time, it's different.

From last year's "The Door of Life and Death", which was released on the heels of "Once Upon a Time", to Qin Wei's rhetoric in order to compete for the box office, Qi Jie was extremely unhappy, but Li Qian was too lazy to fight back, and Qin Wei's status in the rivers and lakes also It is indeed very high, and the box office of "The Gate of Life and Death" is indeed higher than that of "Once Upon a Time", so Qi Jie's tone has been so suffocated, and it has been so, until this time.

"Red Sorghum" shines brightly in Berlin, this heel, it can be regarded as standing up all at once!

You Qin Wei started out as a literary film. He won an award at the Venice Film Festival, so he is called a film master. Now, the award for our "Red Sorghum" in Berlin is only better than you, not worse than you. !

Then, after returning to China, Ka Ka Ka - broke 100 million in the first week, setting a box office record for literary and artistic films, and broke through 100 million again in the next week. The total box office of the two weeks has been infinitely approaching 250 million!

What is this called?

That's called hard stuff!

In the face of such a work with huge awards, invincible reputation, and at the same time, the box office is against the sky, if you have the ability, will you jump out of the blind **?

So, all of a sudden, the tone of Qi Jie's heart went smoothly.

Immediately, almost everyone who has the opportunity to see Qi Jie often will find that the smile on Mr. Qi's face and the high-spirited mental state naturally brought out by her whole body are obviously back. It was like it was before last spring.

Calmly, he rebuked Fang Qiu.

Well, a "Red Sorghum" made the domineering female president straighten her heart and revive her with blood!

For others, congratulations are nothing but congratulations when we meet, but for her, just one sentence - this is normal! This is his normal level!

Of course, in fact, she didn't know that Li Qian had actually been performing at an exceptional level in recent years.

Some things of popular songs, it is relatively easy for an expert who has been making music for so many years to copy, or even carry out a certain degree of localization on the basis of the original.

But the movie, its complexity, is many times more complicated than music.

Even if you have a very clear script in your mind, and you have pictures and editing that have been very successful to provide a reference that can still be copied, it is still extremely difficult to reproduce it perfectly.

Therefore, as an ordinary actor and second-in-command assistant director in a previous life, Li Qian knew himself to start with a TV series that focused more on storytelling rather than artistry.

Train yourself and your team.

Later, when he started making movies, he also started with a relatively simple and relatively easy-to-copy commercial film, and also started with an urban youth comedy, and then tried a martial arts kung fu film, and then he finally dared to try one. A literary film.

Fortunately, "Red Sorghum" was a huge success.

But even so, even since the coronation in Berlin, the popularity of "Red Sorghum" in the country has been rising, and now it has exceeded 100 million in the next week, and the box office has completed a major reversal. Everywhere he went, he was greeted with applause and screams, but Li Qian did not indulge in such a huge success-his old habit, the promotion of "Red Sorghum", various activities, he He continued to push two, five, six, and directly dumped the bag to Fu Xuelong and Qin Jingjing.

Because after returning from the Berlin Film Festival, all his energy has been completely taken away by the backlog of various jobs on hand.

The first is Zhou Ai's new album, his mother's comeback. This is definitely not enough for writing songs, so you have to keep an eye on it.

Then there is the production of "Hulu Baby". Although Cao Zhan and a group of masters from Minghu Animation are available to rely on, almost every modeling design, every action design, and every frame of the picture must be Li Qian had seen it with his own eyes and was satisfied.

So it is conceivable that it is full of all kinds of Barabara's words, explanations, arguments, and even quarrels - and sometimes, in order to let others understand what state they want, Li Qian also had to use his really lame painting skills to demonstrate in person.

Fortunately, the overall progress of "Hulu Baby" is relatively smooth.

The most important thing is the several teams that were abruptly kneaded together. Because of such a project, they had to cooperate with each other to work, and the integration was quite good.

However, due to lack of technology and lack of experience, everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones every step of the way, making mistakes and mistakes. , everyone turned around and walked to the other one, often a few days or even a dozen days passed.

For "Huluwa", China's first big animated film, all the other costs added together cannot compare to the time cost caused by those detours.

The most optimistic estimate is that this animated film will be able to make a prototype in the second half of this year, and it will not be completely completed until at least the end of this year.

If you are not optimistic...it is estimated to be after New Year's Day!

Then there is the preparatory work for "The Matrix".

Props are the biggest item.

Fortunately, there are various sketches prepared by Li Qian in advance, and the props team made them according to the drawings. At best, they reworked a few times, and in the end, Li Qian could always be satisfied with the acceptance.

In the same sentence, in order to save costs, Li Qian chose not to use post-production special effects as much as possible to achieve pictures that could be achieved with props, models, and with the help of shooting skills.

Mainly because the special effects cost too much.

Oh, for the time being, there is another point, that is, Liu Chengzhang's special effects are really too fierce.

Originally thought that the special effects follow-up of his new film would require the special effects department of Minghu Culture to provide about half of the workload. Technology and new equipment, but in fact, he took away at least 80 of the workload of the special effects department of Minghu Culture with one film alone!

It should be said that after experiencing the blow of "Sword Immortal", Liu Chengzhang's daring in special effects and throwing money, not only did not restrain a little, but even more exaggerated!

Now, he desperately needs a super-successful work to justify his name!

And for his own special effects road and the road to throw money, justify the name!

Well, far away.

"The Matrix", Li Qian plans to start filming around July and August, and its preparations must be completely completed before the end of June.

The props aspect is not a big problem, Li Qian keeps an eye on it. As for the actors, Zhou Baoshan and He Yingyu, the male and female protagonists, have already received some necessary training, such as firearms training, but after that, because of Li Qian's In the "Matrix", the company did not arrange any other film appointments for them, basically it belongs to the state of fitness and training, while waiting for the boot.

Then, Li Qian plans to find some foreign actors of other skin colors. At present, the Oriental Dream Film Company in the United States has reported to the Actors Guild. In mid-April, Li Qian plans to fly over for a few days to make a public announcement. The audition and selection - Prophet Morpheus, Li Qian planned to arrange for black actors to play, while the villain in the film, namely Agent Smith, was set to be white actors.

The American audition, to put it bluntly, is mainly for these two characters.

Moreover, in the script setting of Li Qian's version, the big city as the background of the story obviously needs to blur the specific positioning. Therefore, some of the avatars of Agent Smith that will appear in the movie are not in the original work. There are males and females, old and young, as well as yellows, blacks and whites.

It is said that in Hollywood, black actors cannot play negative roles. This is the so-called "political correctness" in the United States~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But for Li Qian, filming "The Matrix", although he has a certain impact The intention of the international film market, but in the final analysis, in his opinion, the film must first stand in the country!

First make it into a super blockbuster that Chinese people love to watch, and then moderately add an international background, so that foreign audiences, especially European and North American audiences, at least don't feel incompatible, that's all.

Perhaps the fact that the male and female protagonists are all Chinese actors will cause "The Matrix" to lose some points in the European and American markets, but... who cares!

Anyway, Li Qian's base camp, no matter now or in the future, must be in China!

In fact, with a population of more than one billion and a rapidly developing economy, it is fundamentally doomed that once the domestic film market in China rises in the future, the North American market with a population of only about 300 million cannot be compared at all. !

Over there, "Red Sorghum" was a big hit across the country, and after breaking through 100 million at the box office the next week, it became a "national topic", and the "Red Sorghum" crew headed by Qin Jingjing and Fu Xuelong also worked very hard to run around the country. While promoting, interacting with fans, recording TV shows, etc., Li Qian here, although not involved in the promotion of the movie, is busy every day.

After finally checking the production and preparations of the two films, after discussing the existing problems and re-setting the work direction, Li Qian can finally breathe a sigh of relief temporarily.

And at this time, Feng Bi became the cut out version of the movie "The Big Shot", which has been out for a long time. First of all, an internal film viewing party is imperative.

No matter how hard you try to ask for a monthly pass, it doesn't seem to increase much, so can you ask for a few recommended tickets today? perfect life
