Perfect Life

One billion?

Zhao Meicheng is really digging holes step by step!

This famous director has always been known in the industry for his outspoken words, but if you think he is really a hot-tempered guy, you are completely wrong.

When the time was almost up, Yuan Ke, Zhao Meicheng and the others got up and left, went to the screening hall and sat down, while Li Qian, Qi Jie and others stayed behind.

She waved her hand and sent Liao Min away, who seemed to have something to say. Qin Jingjing seemed to have winked a little over the past two years, and after seeing this, she followed her agent away, and Qi Jie shook her head with a half-smiling smile, "Is it a bit low-level? "

Li Qian also laughed.

To be honest, it’s better to be fooled by Minghu Culture and Huafei Film and Television, or to be fooled by saying that Qin Wei’s “Golden Terrace” will reach 500 million, but I wish your “Huang Feihong’s Man Be Self-improvement” to break one billion. Zhao Meicheng's method does give the impression that it is a bit low-end.

But right now, think about it for him, he is also a clever woman.

In the past few years, Minghu Culture has made a lot of money from several movies. Naturally, the group of Jinghua Films are greedy. Qin Wei's unprecedented 700 million sales are estimated to have made Zhao Meicheng and the others laugh all over the place.

Again, once the eyes are only fixed on this acre of land in the country, then it is basically inevitable that the peers are enemies-everyone is hostile to the Hollywood blockbusters coming every year to make money, and they all try to lead the way. The rise of domestic films is another level.

In short, I wish all of you were bad, and I was the only one who did the big sales!

But the key point is that Jinghua Film and Minghu Culture are now considered a "honeymoon period"!

To put it bluntly, so far, the two companies have not had the most direct market conflict - in fact, Jinghua Film has not yet benefited from the rapidly expanding market!

Therefore, without congratulations, let's provoke the relationship between Minghu Culture and Huafei Film and Television. Anyway, it will not hurt the face of both parties, and it will not be torn apart for this, which is the limit of what Zhao Meicheng can do.

It's just... it will make Li Qian look down on it a bit!

As far as the current domestic film market is concerned, through last year's summer season, and "Red Sorghum" and "Big Shot" in the first half of this year, in fact, domestic insightful filmmakers have basically explored the current domestic film market. The bottom line - in fact, Zhao Meicheng also understands it very well!

Qin Wei's huge name and super appeal are all hard things. Even if Zhao Meicheng looks down on his clumsy way of making money last year, he has to admit that his "Golden Terrace" must not be underestimated. .

However, he himself said that "Golden Terrace" has reached the top of 500 million!

At this time, if you really believe what he said, "The Man of Huang Feihong's Self-improvement" sold for one billion, and he stepped on Lao Qin so he couldn't find the North!", then you would be stupid!

From "Red Sorghum" to "The Big Shot", they are all films with excellent reputation, but they have tried hard, extended the schedule, and strengthened publicity. This hurdle.

What does this mean?

This shows that in the short term, unless there is another super sensational phenomenon-level top masterpiece, it is possible to cause a huge sensation in the whole country, and it is possible to break the domestic box office record of 700 million created by "The Gate of Life and Death".

Otherwise, it's basically impossible.

"Once Upon a Time" has the foundation of the first "Once Upon a Time". It is said that it has a certain foundation to hit the box office record, but in Li Qian's view, it is certain that this film will be a big hit, but it must be It is almost impossible to hit the 700 million box office of "The Gate of Life and Death".

The reason is very simple: the theme is still in the frame of the previous one, there is no breakthrough in the story, and there is no breakthrough growth in the market.

On the contrary, it is "The Matrix" that he is about to start shooting. In Li Qian's view, it has the possibility of hitting the domestic box office of 700 million or even higher.

Because that would be something that would break the Chinese people, and even break the world view of the entire world film industry!

Li Qian has strong confidence in this.

As for "Huang Feihong's Men Be Self-improvement", Li Qian poured cold water on Zhao He and Zhou Baoshan after the film was completed: 300 million is a pass, 400 million is very satisfied, and if it can exceed 500 million, it is already It was very successful - no matter how bright the golden signboard of "Once Upon a Time" shines, the domestic box office market and the limitations of the film itself cannot be ignored.

At this time, if Zhao Meicheng is fooled and the entire crew has extremely high expectations for the movie that far exceed the reality, then in the future, the imbalance of mentality is almost inevitable.

Of course, the current Li Qian and Qi Jie are no longer rookies!

On the other side of the crew, with Li Qian's attitude, the cold water has been poured over long ago, and nothing will happen!

…………

They entered the screening hall together and sat down according to the seat number they were given. Yuan Ke deliberately touched Zhao Meicheng's arm, and when he turned his head, he whispered, "You shouldn't have said that, Li Qian and Qi Jie are both Such a fine person! As soon as your words were said, they probably slapped it on the spot."

Zhao Meicheng smiled and said, "I just want them to understand that I'm picking things up here!"

Yuan Ke was speechless.

Well, according to what he has known about Zhao Meicheng for so many years, he should really think that way, rather than prevaricate his own words-hey, I'm just picking things up, what can you do to me? Anyway, the two of you were fighting, and Qin Wei didn't come over to bully me, so I just saw your jokes, what's the matter?

He is such a ruffian!

Yuan Ke sat back and stopped talking.

As far as the three major bosses in the film industry are concerned, he is a relatively honest man, not as aggressive as Zhou Yanghua, nor as long-sleeved as Hu Fei. In comparison, he, the big boss behind the scenes, is even more like Zhao Meicheng. The director's big housekeeper, Zhao Meicheng, does what he likes the most, and for everything else, as long as he doesn't want to do it, he can leave it to Yuan Ke, the errand guy.

Therefore, it is said that the person Zhou Yanghua looks down on the most is Yuan Ke.

…………

As soon as the movie started, there was a wave of climaxes.

Whether Yuan Ke or Zhao Meicheng, they all watched with relish. After all, they all loved the first one.

Then, when the singing of "Men Be Self-improvement" started, Yuan Ke and others were excited to hear it, but at this time, about a hundred lucky fans in the back row who were specially invited to attend the premiere ceremony couldn't help watching it. Just sang along.

As a result, countless industry leaders, stars, some media reporters who have close ties with Minghu Culture, and many film critics who were invited to come here couldn't help but look back in surprise.

Those die-hard fans sang so much.

With the light on the screen, Yuan Ke and Zhao Meicheng, who turned their heads in surprise, clearly saw the excited expressions on the faces of the group of people who were singing along with the movie.

Yuan Ke looked a little envious.

A die-hard movie fan like this, who can't be jealous?

The movie has only just started, and the light of the song "Men as Self-improvement" has already aroused the excitement of so many fans, obviously reminding them of some good memories when they saw "Once Upon a Time" last year- - To put it bluntly, this thing is feelings!

A movie, once the audience has feelings, is the box office still a thing?

Everyone makes movies, who doesn't want to make a movie like this themselves?

Yuan Ke just stared at the audience in the last row, watching them sing along with the movie excitedly, and his face was full of fascinated expressions.

At this time, Zhao Meicheng seemed to be sneering in his ears, and he felt very disdainful.

When he turned around, he saw Zhao Meicheng approaching and whispered, "Is this the nurse they were looking for?"

Yuan Ke said: "It is said that the lucky viewers were drawn from the movie tickets of "Once Upon a Time" last year, and all of them have registered on the official website of Minghu Culture. They must like "Once Upon a Time", but if they are not nurses, they will not. Great to say."

Zhao Meicheng sneered again, "It must be Tuoer."

Yuan Ke smiled and did not continue to refute anything.

He didn't think it was necessarily a good nursery.

Because Li Qian already has this ability—it’s hard to say anything else, but let’s talk about the music resources needed to make movies, such as theme songs, episodes, soundtracks for TV dramas and movies, etc. In the circles of TV dramas and movies, To say that the resource is the most powerful, it is obviously the Minghu culture.

This point is like an MV for a song. No one in the entire music world can compare with Minghu Culture. It is the same - people, film, television, and song, take everything!

And everything is done with style!

Let's just talk about the movie episodes. Almost every one of Li Qian's past works was a movie with a popular song. In turn, the wide popularity of the song has attracted a lot of tickets for the movie.

From "i-believe" in "My Sassy Girl", to "A Man Should Be Self-improvement" in "Once Upon a Time", and then to "Sister, You Boldly Go To" in "Red Sorghum", which is full of strange and rough taste "Let's Go", might as well be -- and, in the past few years, some audiences sang songs from the movies while watching director Li Qian's works, which has been reported by the media many times.

Even the TV series produced by Minghu Culture are basically every TV series that can make a few songs, and even a few singers!

From "The Legend of the New White Lady", "Meteor Garden", "Princess Huanzhu", to the recent "Following Love to the End", isn't it all like this?

So, it's really not that uncommon.

…………

After the song was finished, the movie gradually entered the alley, and the audience behind it naturally stopped singing for a long time.

Yuan Ke came back to his senses, turned his head and said to Zhao Meicheng, "I guess the box office won't be low!"

Zhao Meicheng turned his head in amazement, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth, and said with a half-smile, "Is it possible that I have a crow's mouth and can really do a billion?"

Yuan Ke smiled and said, "One billion... It is estimated that there is no hope, but I think three or four billion should be underestimating them! Just focusing on the performance of these audiences, I estimate that there is hope for 500 million."

Hearing this, Zhao Meicheng's expression finally became serious.

Looking back at last week's handsome action on the big screen, Baoshan finally nodded, sighed, and said, "Maybe! This should be the first big-selling sequel!"

While speaking, he raised his hand to pick his ears and eyes with a tangled expression, and muttered something to himself.

Yuan Ke didn't hear clearly and asked, "What did you say?"

Zhao Meicheng said: "I said...if the mother can change the film and continue to sell well, Li Qian will be happy in the future! Start by yourself, and if it sells, change the director immediately, not only will you make a lot of money, but you will also be able to support people. !……Grass!"

While speaking, he could not help but sigh.

After a pause, he turned to look at his boss again, lowered his voice and said, "I hope Lao Qin can come up with something good, otherwise, no one can really hold back Minghu!"

Yuan Ke was silent for a moment, then nodded.

If this movie really breaks through the domestic box office of 500 million as expected, then Minghu Culture is really unmatched!

It's only been a few years. "Once Upon a Time" is 470 million, "Red Sorghum" is 575 million, and "Big Shot" is 578 million. If "Once Upon a Time" gets a sequel and changes the director, it will pass 500 million... I can't imagine it. !

Except for Qin Wei's "The Gate of Life and Death", which sold 700 million yuan, these other directors in China, including Du Weiyun, Liu Chengzhang, and Zhao Meicheng, have not yet exceeded 500 million! But the Minghu Culture family has already come up with three...is it scary?

Scary!

Also worry about people!

…………

After the movie screening, the audience burst into thunderous applause. Yuan Ke followed the applause and looked around, and found that not only herself, but many people who had finished watching the movie, whether it was reporters, celebrities, theater managers, or ordinary people. The audience, everyone seems to have a very satisfied look on their faces - yes, he also thinks that this movie is really good!

He thought to himself: This time, he may not have guessed wrong!

Zhao He, the previously unknown new director, is afraid that he will become famous in one fell swoop - the fourth domestic director with a box office of more than 500 million! Absolute battle to fame!

When the media interviews and the interaction with fans were over, the entire premiere ceremony was completely over. Zhao Meicheng got up and walked out with no expression on his face, looking preoccupied and unhappy, Yuan Ke wanted to stop him, but After thinking about it, he gave up. In the end, he had to bring Li Linlin with him, and went over to congratulate Li Qian and Qi Jie.

Yes, this film, in his opinion, is really beautiful.

After Zhao He took over the director's baton, he basically continued the overall style of the first film. From story design, action design, to camera style and director language, many places followed Li Qian's style in the first film. Audiences who like the first part will feel that the rhythm and temperament are very familiar, and they can see it without any effort, but in some subtle places, such as the interpretation of characters, in the editing and editing of some finely cut shots. In the arrangement, he has a lot of small handwriting that can be noticed with a little attention.

It can be regarded as an innovation in inheritance.

Pretty nicely done.

After congratulating with a smile on his face, Yuan Ke took Li Linlin out.

However, as soon as he left the crowd, Yuan Ke's face turned gloomy, and he was a little worried.

When he got back to his car, he immediately took out his mobile phone and called his assistant, "When the sequel of "Once Upon a Time" is released tomorrow, I want to see its daily box office status as soon as possible."

Li Linlin looked at him, and when he hung up the phone, she said, "There's no need to worry so much? We can't meet him again!"

Yuan Ke shook his head with a wry smile, first patted the front seat and let the driver drive, and then said to his beautiful concubine, "Is it okay this year, what about next year?"

Li Linlin looked surprised, "Next year?" She said with a smile, "Next year, is it possible that they will get the third film of "Once Upon a Time"?"

Yuan Ke couldn't help laughing when he said this, but he immediately said, "That's hard to say! As long as it sells well and the audience wants to see it, tell me that I will definitely make the third film!"

After a pause, he said with a sad face: "I didn't think about stepping on them on the initiative, but in this circle... can't Qi Minghu Culture feel that he has become more powerful and his position is stable, so he turned his head and stepped on others?"

Having said that, he looked at Li Linlin, "Qin Wei and the others don't dare to step on them, will they find Lao Zhao's head? You know, Lao Zhao is more likely to cause trouble!"

Li Linlin has been ai-ai for a while, and she doesn't know how to answer this.

After a long time, the car had already entered the fast lane, and she said, "Actually, there is no need to worry too much, right? This movie is very nice and well done, but Qin Wei must have a unique skill. "Taiwan" came to this "Once Upon a Time"! At that time, "Golden Terrace" stepped on "Once Upon a Time" for the second time, and the feud between them could not be solved!"

After a pause~www.wuxiaspot.com~ she smiled, "At that time, Li Qian still has the intention to confront others? Shouldn't he relax relations with several other companies, including us, and then concentrate on talking to others? Does Lao Qin fight against the stage?"

Hearing this, Yuan Ke looked at Li Linlin with some surprise and some surprise, and suddenly laughed, "It's really possible!"

After a pause, he smiled, "I hope so!"

Li Linlin patted her man's hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Qin Wei is amazing! It will definitely make our wish come true!"

…………

The premiere ceremony is over. Tomorrow, "Once Upon a Time" will be officially released nationwide.

One of the very important meanings of the premiere ceremony is to warm up public opinion, word-of-mouth and network communication in advance - this is a very important step in the pre-screening publicity war.

In the afternoon and evening of the same day, there were already more than a dozen articles written by lucky viewers who had watched the premiere on the Internet - no doubt, unanimous praise.

For this sequel, to Zhao He, the sequel director who was controversial and suspected by many media before, and to the story, style, etc. of the sequel, almost all of them gave high praise!

And at this time, it was the time when the fans of "Once Upon a Time" were eagerly looking forward to the release of the movie, so they were quickly pushed up as soon as these rare articles appeared. Within hours, the replies were already in the thousands!

Many people said in the message: After reading the post of the landlord, I am even more greedy, I will see it tomorrow!
