Chapter 187 How far is it from the master

Author: Knife and Plow Category:

"...The emperor has seventy-two concubines in three palaces, six courtyards, and they are all supported by the state. I am only a daughter-in-law, and she left me. My life is a tragedy!"

"This is you, this is me, this is Tyler, I see farther than you, Tyler sees, farther than me, Buddha sees... infinity!"

"Do your DVDs have a super error correction function? Yes? That's right! We must resolutely protect the national film industry and combat piracy. Everyone is responsible!"

"There is such a madhouse. There are too many patients in the madhouse, and they are all fools. There are not enough doctors and nurses in the hospital. Of course, you have to choose the one with a more normal mind. So the dean came to the first floor..."

The time is Tuesday, March 27th.

In the well-decorated audio-visual room on the ninth floor of Minghu Culture, a group of high-level executives from the company and the film and television department, as well as the directors and producers of the company's current directors and producers in Shuntianfu, were all present.

Li Qian, Qi Jie, Cao Zhan, Jin Han, Han Shunzhang, Lu Lingxi, Sun Yuting, Huang Wenjuan, related personnel of the company's publicity department, film and television distribution department and theater chain.

And... Feng Bicheng.

Add thirteen people together.

I have to say that when I met a character like Youyou in "The Big Shot", Huang Ge, a small third-tier supporting role who usually looked unremarkable, suddenly burst out with all his strength.

Absolutely absolutely shines.

This guy's acting skills are usually natural, so when he encounters such a black comedy, whether he shouts loudly or pretends to be low-key, almost every sentence has a natural laugh that makes you want to laugh!

As a result, he almost completely dominated the film.

Even at such an internal film viewing meeting, the people present are all high-level executives from Minghu Culture. Many people have read the script or heard of the outline of the story, but after sitting down and entering the plot, they still can't control it. Time and time again I was amused by this movie and laughed.

Among them, the most eye-catching is undoubtedly the role of Youyou played by Huang Ge.

Under his excellent performance, Bai Yujing was basically completely reduced to a big beautiful vase.

Of course, this is mainly because the role of Youyou is too dazzling and full of freshness. Even Zhao Meicheng has previously filmed a series of urban comedies with the theme of small townspeople, but this is by no means the same way. So, this light covers everything.

And if you look at this rationally, and looking back, Bai Yujing's performance of a Chinese beauty who grew up abroad and speaks a bit of a tongue-in-cheek Chinese can be considered a success.

Beautiful and bubbling, foreign and natural.

With every move of his hand, there is a natural flirt between his eyebrows and eyes.

Well, compared to the beauty of Guan Damei in the original time and space, that is not much.

It's just, well, the acting tree that I finally opened for her is estimated to have shrunk back a lot! Now, as soon as the movie is released, the position of the big vase on her head will come back completely.

In addition, um, there is no doubt that with the blessing of Li Qian's script, and the full support of a group of powerful actors in the Shuntianfu Theater, the supporting roles of this film are all incomparable. fresh.

Especially the big names in the mental hospital, it was like a dance of demons—

"Those who want to make money from e-commerce are all idiots. Websites have to spend money, and they can't bear to have children. Hire a few swearing gunmen with high salaries. Find a few cultural celebrities as targets. .What does the website rely on? It depends on the click rate! The click rate goes up, and the next family will follow. How much money you put in plus ten will be sold to the next family directly, I will tell you, If someone talks about an acquisition, they will immediately cash out. If you give you stocks, you don’t need to talk about it! If you are interested, you can invest between 8 million and 10 million. I dare not say that, I will guarantee you to earn 100 million a year! Really! !—I'm talking about dollars!"

"You must choose the best prime location, hire French designers, and build the highest-grade apartment, with elevators directly into the home, and the smallest apartment size must be 400 square meters. What kind of broadband, fiber optic cable, satellite can connect him. He will connect all of them. There is a garden upstairs, a swimming pool in the building, and an English housekeeper in the building, wearing a wig, the kind of a special gentleman. As soon as the owner enters the door, he has to talk to the other person, no matter what happens. Say: 'mayIhelpyou, sir?' with an authentic British London accent, and it's a lot of face."

"Building another aristocratic school in the community, using Harvard's textbooks, will cost tens of thousands of dollars a year. Build another American clinic, which will be available 24 hours a day. Just a word, expensive! The neighbors around here either drive BMWs or Mercedes-Benzes. If you drive a Japanese car, you are embarrassed to say hello to them. You said, how much do you have to sell for one square meter of such an apartment?”

"I think it costs two thousand dollars anyway. Two thousand dollars? That's the cost! From four thousand dollars! Don't think it's too expensive, don't discount it. You have to study the shopping psychology of the owners. Owners who are willing to pay two thousand dollars to buy a house, I don't care about paying another two thousand. Do you know what a successful person is? A successful person buys the most expensive, not the best. Therefore, our real estate slogan is: don't seek the best, But ask for the most expensive!"

Since this scene in the mental hospital, the low-pitched laughter in the audio-visual room has not stopped.

For an ordinary movie audience, this kind of detail is actually deadly - you may not be the kind of roaring laughter with everyone, but seeing this and hearing these mentally ill people go hysterical so seriously, That kind of feeling will make you twitch your shoulders and make you laugh like a fool!

Theoretically speaking, in a comedy movie, if you can have two or three paragraphs of this kind, the movie will be a hit—a joke like this is simply the best word-of-mouth tool! You don't need to say anything, after watching the movie, the audience will spontaneously promote it for you.

And in the movie "Big Shot", there are so many jokes like this.

As a result, the biggest names in the real film and television industry have been laughing non-stop since about ten minutes.

Of course, this definitely means that Feng Bicheng's directorial work has been done very well - from the script on paper to the film scene with precise rhythm and good performance, it is his work in the middle.

At the end of the movie screening, Huang Wenjuan just got up and wanted to turn on the lights, but Feng Bicheng had already cleverly got up in advance to turn on the headlights in the audio-visual room.

The laughter of everyone in the middle of the screening just now should be regarded as the best comment. So, as soon as the lights came on, Li Qian stood up, and he didn't plan to go to the conference room, so he asked directly, "Tell me all about it? What's your opinion?"

Cao Zhan was the first to speak, "I think it's pretty good, almost perfect!"

Sun Yuting said secondly, "Great! One of the best black humor I've ever seen!"

Lu Lingxi said: "The degree of completion is very high, and the overallity is very good!"

Jin Han said, "I give 95 points! Very DIAO!"

Li Qian finally turned his head and looked at Han Shunzhang.

He is one of the three producers of the film, and also replaced himself as the producer of the film. If Feng Bicheng is standing in this film and leading everything at the moment, then standing behind him is the one who controls the overall situation for him. The person was undoubtedly Han Shunzhang.

This movie has at least half of his efforts.

At this time, facing Li Qian's gaze, Han Shunzhang nodded.

In fact, the current version of the film, its shooting, editing, and even performance, basically strictly follow the script given by Li Qian. There are very few changes, additions, deletions and adjustments to the creation of scenes and characters at the director level.

That is to say, this is a typical "screenplay".

The logic of the script is after repeated scrutiny, and generally tends to be more logical, and the director's re-creation, on-the-spot performance, and even additions and deletions to the plot and characters in the middle of filming can easily lead to an imbalance in the structure of a play. , The logic loses its rigor.

Of course, in the end, the director can also reconstruct the story through editing, and strive to present a good movie with strict logic, rich characters and smooth story in the final version.

But often, directors who like to play on the spot and change the script will end up with a version that, no matter how good or bad, will be very different from the original script.

In the current "Big Shot", Feng Bicheng's completed works are basically above 95%, which greatly follows the plan of the script and seldom adjusts himself.

At first glance, it seems that this will make the director's ability seem mediocre and will only follow the gourd, but in fact, this is one of the characteristics of strong directing ability.

A director, especially a commercial director to be successful, must be a super dancer who is especially good at dancing in shackles—no script changes, no dialogue, no characters, basically exactly the script, but On the one hand, it perfectly presents the style and characteristics of the script. On the other hand, in many details, from the costumes, the scenery, to the angle of framing, as well as the performance of the actors, and many other aspects, it fully shows the director. Personal thoughts on this story.

This is rare!

Even in Li Qian's view, such an ability is beyond Feng Bicheng's ability.

However, he is indeed so beautiful.

After Li Qian finished reading it, he felt that he basically had nothing to say.

So, after asking everyone's opinions, Li Qian clapped his hands, "Okay, that's it for now, Lao Jin, Lao Han, go back to your film and television department and give me a suggestion for adjustment, the publicity department, the distribution department, your work. Hurry up and report it to President Qi! This is a good film, but if it doesn't sell well, I'll ask you to settle the account! ... The meeting is over!"

Feng Bicheng stood at the door.

From coming to watch the film, entering the door, to the end of the screening, holding a small meeting on the spot, and then to the end of the meeting, Li Qian walked out of the audio-visual room without looking at him from beginning to end.

Feng Bicheng lowered his head and watched everyone leave.

When Cao Zhan walked out the door, he deliberately stopped, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "It's really great!"

Feng Bicheng smiled gratefully and nodded, "Thank you, President Cao!"

With Cao Zhan taking the lead, the others also praised more or less lightly or heavily. Only Qi Jie and Sun Yuting left without saying a word.

Qi Jie was relatively calm, but Sun Yuting just turned her head to look at him seriously, with an undisguised disgust on her face.

When he returned to the office, Qi Jie smiled and said, "I really didn't expect that his level is really not bad!"

Li Qian answered him calmly, "There are many directors who are not bad."

Qi Jie shrugged, smiled, and went out without saying a word.

In the past few days, since "Red Sorghum" has exceeded 100 million at the box office for two consecutive weeks, she has been in a very good mood. Originally, her opinion on Feng Bicheng was even more serious than that of Li Qian, but at this time, it seems that she is all bearish. .

The last few days of March have passed without knowing it.

For the Chinese film industry, March this year was obviously an impressive month.

"Red Sorghum" won the award in Berlin, and Li Qian's acceptance speech made the domestic film circle praise endlessly, and then "Red Sorghum" was released in China. Completed a double breakthrough of trophies and box office!

Since then, "Red Sorghum" will undoubtedly become the most important benchmark for domestic films and domestic literary films! Even, it has stepped into the classic hall with one foot!

So, it is conceivable that the box office has exceeded 100 million yuan for two consecutive weeks, and even in the case of last week's serious under-appreciation, with an extremely inferior film placement rate, the reversal of a newly listed commercial blockbuster was abruptly completed. , "Red Sorghum"'s ability to sell, no one will doubt it.

As a result, in the last week of March, the filming rate of "Red Sorghum" rebounded rapidly. Although it did not reach the extremely high filming rate of the first two weekends in the first week, it still returned to more than 40 at once. The large and medium-sized theaters across the country have remained stable.

Mainly because "Bad Life" collapsed at the touch of a button, making "Red Sorghum" almost completely without a decent opponent in the next two weeks! With the box office of "Red Sorghum" breaking 100 million for two consecutive weeks, the domestic topic of this film has been completely fermented, and it has become a national topic. And the increased attention will naturally bring in more audiences.

Exactly at the same time as the filming rate of "Red Sorghum" has increased significantly, the filming rate of "Bad Life" has steadily declined in major theaters-in a brand new week, this commercial blockbuster was only released in the second week, and the average Only 26 films were obtained, which was far lower than the original expectations of the industry and the distributor.

Oh, by the way, after three hours of negotiation, when "Red Sorghum" entered its third week of screening, Oriental Cinemas finally chose to sign the screening agreement.

In the end, they obtained 286 new copies from Minghu Culture with a higher share ratio than the market benchmark, much higher than their own negotiating standards, and relatively strict screening requirements, and finally caught up with the last train. At that time, the film arrangement for "Red Sorghum" by its own cinemas was raised to a high market rate of 46%.

In such a week, "Red Sorghum", which has basically lost its opponent, although the average attendance rate on weekdays began to drop below 40, and the attendance rate on weekends was only slightly more than 70, but it was released on its own. In the third week of the film, still with a high rate of filming, it won the box office of 88.56 million in one fell swoop!

Adding up the box office in the first three weeks, the cumulative domestic box office still reached a high of 337.34 million!

It has become inevitable that the box office will break 400 million in the future!

Although it is difficult to break through 500 million, it is not entirely impossible - because literary and artistic films, especially the literary and artistic films with good reputation, have their own long-term selling skills!

And even if it can't pass 500 million in the end, just over 400 million at the box office is enough to make the movie "Red Sorghum" proud of the world.

Not to mention that literary and artistic films are definitely the number one in history, even compared with a number of commercial blockbusters, it can proudly announce that it has officially ranked among the top three domestic film box office charts!

The first place, "The Gate of Life and Death", the second place, "Once Upon a Time", the third place, "Red Sorghum"!

And the past three film works, "My Sassy Girl", "Once Upon a Time" and "Red Sorghum", their combined box office means that Li Qian will officially surpass Liu Chengzhang and Qin Wei to become the top-grossing director in China The throne of the first place - of course, the newspaper said, maybe Li Qian won't be able to stay in this seat for too long.

Because "Golden Terrace" will be released soon, and "Once Upon a Time" is not Li Qian's directorial work, it cannot be counted in his personal name.

But even so, after the three films sold in the market successively, and the breakthrough of "Red Sorghum" in awards, the current Li Qian is no longer qualified to regard him as a fledgling film rookie. .

He is already one of the top film directors in the country!

Some people even jokingly said: Li Qian is only one gray beard away from the title of Master!

Time entered April, the first Friday of its release was more than 10 million, and the next week it also received a slightly surprising box office of more than 46 million. Although "Bad Life" is still insisting on publicity, their box office and word of mouth are not equal. There is no sign of collapse, UU reading www.uukanshu.com But there is no doubt that under the excellent box office and word of mouth of "Red Sorghum", especially under the cover of the national topic that has arisen, no matter how hard the publishers promote , it can no longer gain more attention.

Not to mention that when the time entered April, the brand new blockbuster "Smoke in the Desert" produced by the famous director Du Weiyun and produced by the Oriental Media Group in two years has already started to publicize.

In this regard, although there is still a certain amount of box office to harvest in the follow-up, "Bad Life" has been completely submerged by the market silently.

At this time, on the side of Minghu Culture, the company's most fanciful celebration banquet in the past seven years is about to start.

For such a celebration feast, the entire film circle and the entire entertainment circle are extremely concerned.

Because with the overall success of a "Red Sorghum", Minghu Culture has created a film and television power that has been created by the whole circle from "The Legend of the New White Lady" to "Once Upon a Time" and "Red Sorghum". , seems to have reached an unprecedented height.

It seems that the Minghu Culture at this moment, even if it is simply about the ability and resources of film and television production, is enough to be compared with the Oriental Media Group, Huafei Film and Television and Jinghua Film, which are accustomed to be called the three mountains of domestic film.

This company is already a practitioner in the domestic entertainment and film circles. Whether you like it or not, it is a huge existence that cannot be ignored at all!

Just yesterday, I didn't ask for a monthly pass, and I immediately dropped to the fifteenth place!

You see, how can I not ask for this? How dare you stop?

I would like to ask you to help me a little more, and if you have tickets in hand, I would like to ask you to support me again!

Thank you, thank you! perfect life
