Chapter 188 A grand celebration feast

Author: Knife and Plow Category:

The celebration banquet held by Minghu Culture for the big sale of "Red Sorghum" was very large.

When the time entered April, "Red Sorghum", which came to its fourth week of release, faced a situation of no rivals. Coupled with the evaluation and hot discussion of the film in the whole country, it has been completely upgraded to a phenomenon level. Therefore, even after the high box office of the first three weeks, it came to the fourth week, and the box office was still strong. In the fourth week, it won the box office of 65.13 million and continued to sit firmly on the box office chart. Top of the list!

Four weeks after its release, it topped the domestic box office charts for four weeks, and the total box office was officially announced to exceed 400 million!

After the midnight screening on Sunday, April 8, the film's cumulative box office hit a high of 402.47 million - it broke 400 million and was two weeks faster than "Once Upon a Time"!

According to this box office trend, according to the current word-of-mouth evaluation, that is to say, 500 million box office, it is no longer a problem for it!

You must know that the final domestic box office of "Once Upon a Time" is only 700 million, plus the 4.5 billion US dollars earned overseas, the global cumulative box office is only 800 million US dollars.

Equivalent to Chinese yuan, 600 million.

Many people even believe that as long as the screening time is long enough, the domestic box office of "Red Sorghum" is entirely possible to reach 600 million yuan! Considering that the buyout authorization for the overseas distribution of "Red Sorghum" has been sold to more than 90 countries and regions, the total buyout has been credited to nearly 60 million US dollars!

That is to say, the final box office of a literary film like "Red Sorghum" has every chance to catch up, approach, or even surpass a commercial Kung Fu blockbuster like "Once Upon a Time"!

In the face of this situation, in the global market, the four trophies of the Berlin Film Festival will definitely help a lot, but domestically, if the market has to become more and more mature and the scale of the domestic film market is getting bigger and bigger. The bigger the reason is, the more objective it is.

In fact, it has only been eleven months, not even a year. You really want to say how much the domestic film market has developed in less than a year. How mature suddenly becomes, that is obviously not realistic.

A more reliable way to say it might be - the accumulated power.

Through the two works like "My Sassy Girl" and "Once Upon a Time", which are more popular than the other, the name Li Qian's identity as a film director, together with his works, began to get rid of his past as a famous film director. Influenced by singers and idols, he began to build his own director brand step by step.

As a result, with the blessing of the Berlin Film Festival Grand Slam, with a properly coordinated domestic war of words and moderate publicity and hype, the concept of "Director Li Qian's work" began to take root in the hearts of the people.

The concept that "Red Sorghum" is a very powerful movie has also begun to take root in the hearts of the people.

Therefore, Li Qian made a concept of a literary film that won an award and was very good-looking. It was like Master Qin Wei made a big commercial production with great investment. heart of.

"The Gate of Life and Death" was an unprecedented hit, breaking almost all domestic box office records in one fell swoop. Even "Once Upon a Time", a well-recognized commercial classic masterpiece, was trampled under its feet. The worse the word-of-mouth performance is. Before the film was released, it even had a flood of bad reviews on the Internet, but it still could not stop it from achieving its peak and glory since the domestic film began to implement a large-scale commercial theater system.

And now, the big sale of "Red Sorghum", after "The Gate of Life and Death", has completed another super myth of domestic film creation that is almost unattainable - awards, word of mouth, box office, all harvest!

And every item has reached the highest level ever before!

In this regard, Li Qian's identity as a film director, and a super awesome film director, is officially recognized and sought after by everyone.

Of course, whether "Red Sorghum" can actually get a box office of 600 million domestically, or even catch up with and surpass "Once Upon a Time" at the global box office, depends on whether it will face a particularly big new movie next. The impact depends on whether the major theater chains will always give such a high rate of rehearsal, depends on how long the movie can be shown at the longest, and, of course, depends on whether there are enough audiences willing to watch it.

So, until it is reached, everything is just a prediction.

But no matter what, the box office of 400 million has definitely been reached.

And even if it is only 400 million, the status of "Red Sorghum" in the domestic film circle is basically unmatched - it completely overlooks all living beings!

As a result, the celebration banquet prepared by Minghu Culture for "Red Sorghum" not only made a big splash, but also changed the title to "Celebrate the domestic box office of "Red Sorghum" exceeded 400 million and the global cumulative box office exceeded 500 million. !" - admirable, yet daunting.

On the afternoon of April 10, starting at three o'clock, in one of the larger villas that Li Qian bought, the celebration feast started early.

In the domestic entertainment circle, no matter which circle of film, TV or song, many people have come.

Qi Jie is in charge of the town, Zou Wenhuai is around, and several managers and deputy managers from the publicity department and distribution department of Minghu Culture are also present.

From TV stations such as Huaxia TV, Shuntian TV, HUNAN TV, SHANDONG TV, to several radio stations such as Voice of China, to the relevant persons in charge of several top newspapers, and then to representatives of various large and medium-sized domestic cinema companies , and then to various record companies, performance companies, brokerage companies, film production companies, film and television culture companies, and so on...

Don't think too much, in fact, as the organizer, Qi Jie, except for a few Li Qian and her good friends, she did not invite others, but after learning about this celebration, almost everyone often talked to Minghu Culture. All the people I dealt with took the time to rush over to express their congratulations.

Of course, many people came, congratulated, chatted a few words, and then left.

Even Huafei Film and Television, which had a lot of disagreements with Minghu Culture in the past year, arranged for a deputy general manager of the company to come over and congratulate him in person.

Liu Chengzhang's film is still being filmed, but he also arranged for Fang Baijin, a mutual friend of him and Li Qian, who is also one of the most famous art directors in China, to return to Shuntianfu to congratulate him.

As for the internal side of Minghu Culture, almost all the contracted directors, actors, musicians, singers, screenwriters, etc., as long as they follow the Tianfu, and as long as they can get away, basically all of them will be present!

The actors who have participated in "Red Sorghum" and the staff behind the scenes are naturally basically the same.

In the end...it was a bit like a tacit understanding of the enthronement ceremony.

And at this enthronement ceremony, Li Qian didn't appear until five or six o'clock. Before he appeared, Qi Jie, Jin Han, Han Shunzhang, Fu Xuelong and Qin Jingjing were the most conspicuous focus in the field!

It is only natural that Qi Jie has become the focus, but at this special time today, with the award-winning and big sale of "Red Sorghum", many actors, agents, etc. gathered around her, but it has a different meaning.

Because inside and out, everyone is inquiring about the legendary Li Qian's new movie that has been in preparation for half a year.

The film is currently in the domestic film circle, and there are already different opinions - a more reliable one, and a part of the overlap in various rumors is that Li Qian's new film will be jointly invested and filmed by China and the United States, aiming at the Is the global market, especially the North American market!

Before "Red Sorghum" won the award in Berlin, even though Li Qian already had the $4.5 billion overseas box office of "Once Upon a Time", everyone still thinks that Li Qian's new film is targeting the North American market. Some Minghu cultures are bragging.

Before "Red Sorghum" achieved an astonishing box office without being a literary film, everyone was still arrogant about whether Li Qian could really control a "global film" and ensure that he would not hit the streets or lose money. skeptical.

But now, in everyone's heart, Li Qian seems to have completely proved himself.

So, everyone set up almost--

If a new movie needs investment, you speak!

Is there any suitable role for the new movie... Of course there is no problem with supporting roles. It is best to have lines, but it is not completely unacceptable without lines. I hope to consider our company's actors.

After the completion of the new movie, our theater chain will definitely give the highest level of film arrangement treatment!

And so on, and so on.

Most of the people surrounding Jin Han and Han Shunzhang are inquiring. It is said that Lake Culture has won the TV adaptation rights of Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which has become popular in China in recent years...

Even if there is no martial arts masterpiece that Lake Culture has been preparing for, Minghu Culture has steadily produced about three hit TV series with high ratings every year in the past two years, and many film and television companies and brokerage companies are incomparable. Hot-eyed - if you can get a role in a TV drama of Minghu Culture, it would be really cool! Because the TV series produced by Minghu Culture is definitely a popular one, and it is especially popular!

Therefore, Han Shunzhang, as the de facto manager of the film and television department of Minghu Culture, is certainly the most popular. As the film and television director of Minghu Culture, Jin Han is also very popular on the scene.

And even Lu Lingxi, the trailer of "Following Love to the End" has landed on Huaxia TV Channel 1 for preheating, and it has been finalized that it will be broadcast by a set of Huaxia programs in the summer vacation, as "Once Upon a Time" in "Once Upon a Time" Thirteen Aunts, and real talented women and beautiful directors, are also highly sought after.

Although "Following Love to the End" has not yet been broadcast, and I don't know what will happen by then, but as Li Qian's teacher during his studies at the Shuntian Film Academy, the outside world has always been rumored that the two have some underground teacher-student romances. She is also obviously the director that Minghu Culture will support next, so if she can take a role in her next drama, it is wonderful enough to think about it!

Then there is... Fu Xuelong, and Qin Jingjing.

Of course, the Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival suddenly pushed the two young people to a high position they had never imagined before!

Fu Xuelong is the first Chinese filmmaker in China to win the best cinematography at the three major European film festivals!

Therefore, if the judging criteria is based on winning the award, it is absolutely no problem to say that he is the best photographer in the Chinese film industry.

As for the Best Cinematography Award at the Cairo International Film Festival in Egypt, which was won by Gu Shidao, Qin Wei's official photographer - please, it's also called an International Award, but it's not the same as the Silver Bear Award for Best Cinematography at the Berlin Film Festival. Putting it all together, it's really too far away!

And Qin Jingjing... Many people saw Ming Xiaojing's present in her!

Even, because of the backing of Li Qian and Minghu culture, in the eyes of many people, as long as Qin Jingjing is not stupid, then when she reaches the age of Ming Xiaojing in the future, her achievements and status in the arena will definitely surpass that of Ming Xiaojing. !

No matter how powerful Ming Xiaojing is, he is nothing more than wearing the crown of the Queen of the Venice Film Festival on his head, but for many years he has followed Qin Wei to make literary and artistic films, even if he does not cooperate with Qin Wei, he is also looking for literary and artistic films to make, which makes him in As far as the domestic film market is concerned, everyone believes in her acting skills and knows her strength, but no one dares to put any trust in her box office performance!

But Qin Jingjing was different.

Whether Li Qian is a person or the film and television department of the entire Minghu Culture, he is known for his ability to create popular TV dramas and movies!

That is to say, as long as Qin Jingjing hugs her thighs well, her future achievements will never stop at a Berlin Film Festival actress! She can completely become the box office in Xiaohuadan!

Even in terms of the film's commercial performance, she can stand shoulder to shoulder with Fu Hongxue and He Yingyu - as long as the next film can achieve a good result at the box office, her commercial value will be quickly discovered. It was really no worse than Fu Hongxue and He Yingyu!

At 5:40 in the afternoon, Li Qian appeared with Wang Jinglu, Zhou Ai and He Runqing.

And one in each hand, holding the eldest prince and the little princess of the Li family.

There was thunderous cheers.

Qin Jingjing, who had just avoided a group of people who didn't want to talk to her and was hiding in the corner with Liao Min to eat secretly, was the first to stand up when she saw Li Qian coming.

Everyone applauded, and she followed suit.

The degree of force was so great that the palm of his hand started to hurt within a few seconds.

In the past two or three years, she went from being out of place to being ignored, and she was almost forced to accompany people to take advantage of drinks. Later, she defected to Minghu Culture and Li Qian. Along the way, no one knew better than her what Li Qian brought to her. How many things are there! No one understands better than her how important what Li Qian brings to her is!

At this moment, she looked at Li Qian with a look of almost admiration.

Of course, it also brought a little unspeakable love.

It's just at this moment that she, who was still one of the major focuses of the audience just now, including Qi Jie, Jin Han, Han Shunzhang, Fu Xuelong, etc., was instantly ignored by everyone.

All eyes were focused on Li Qian.

From the moment they got off the car in the villa, applause broke out.

Admiration, jealousy, excitement, anticipation, envy, resentment, admiration, adoration...

and so on.

Li Qian came proudly holding a pair of children.

Along the way, he nodded frequently and greeted his good friend.

Li Shesheng was more than two years old, and Xiao Li Cha was one and a half years old, so there was no stage fright at this time.

Two pairs of **** eyes, looking at this person for a while, and that person for a while, are extremely novel and exciting.

However, when Li Qian walked to the steps of the villa, under the thunderous applause, people who were standing or sitting in the villa also came out one after another. Immediately trying to break free, he said, "Hug... Hug..."

He Yingyu laughed and walked over to pick up the little guy.

Seeing this scene, invariably, Bai Yujing and Qin Jingjing's faces quickly flashed a touch of envy - um, yes, no way, Li Shesheng likes this little aunt He Yingyu very much, and especially likes to let her hug, No one else will work.

Oh, yes, Li Cha really likes Xie Bing.

Handing over a pair of children, helplessly watching them become the little cuties that many people are fighting to hug, Li Qian turned around, folded his hands, and nodded to the crowd in the villa.

When the applause subsided a little, Li Qian cleared his throat and said, "Uh... my original intention was not to like this kind of celebration banquet, celebration reception, etc., because I feel that I am still on the road and need to continue to work hard. , It's not time to celebrate! But this time, everyone is very happy, and I didn't expect "Red Sorghum" to be so good at the box office~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I didn't expect it, so I just said it would be done, Let's do it then, usually everyone is busy with their own things, and now we just take this opportunity to get together."

Speaking of which, the audience did not know who was taking the lead, and began to applaud again.

Li Qian smiled, waited for the applause to stop for a while, and then continued: "Everyone here is acquaintances, all friends, and I don't talk so much anymore. Everyone let go of eating, drinking, and playing, and celebrate. Banquet, there are no taboos! Uh, next, on April 20th, our company has a movie to be released, called "The Big Shot", and the promotion has already started. Before the release, please help to promote it. After the release, please help support the box office. !"

Having said that, he folded his hands again and said with a smile, "Here, I thank you all in advance!"

As soon as Li Qian finished speaking, Qi Jie, who was standing not far behind him, suddenly said loudly: "If the box office of "The Big Shot" can break 300 million, we are still here to celebrate!"

Just this sentence, the atmosphere at the scene immediately became a little split.

Some people, mostly people from Minghu Culture, laughed when they heard the words, and some people wanted to applaud, but most of them were stunned for a while, and then they laughed and applauded.

"Big Shot"?

The work of the notorious Feng Bicheng?

300 million box office?

Ha ha.

On the 17th, I know that many readers have already voted for this month's five monthly tickets. Dao Yigong is here to sincerely thank you all, thank you for your full support!

But I still have to ask, there should be a lot of friends who have monthly tickets in hand, but haven't voted for five tickets yet, right?

Can you support me? Xiaodao has been working hard this month!

Ask for support, ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation ticket! perfect life
