Chapter 538 Target Berlin (6k)
The New Year's Day holiday in 2013 starts from the 1st, and the premiere of "The Embroidered Spring Sword" was the day before.
Chen Linfeng went to support him as usual.
The movie is still the same, and he also paid special attention to the two paragraphs of Ding Xiu's "adding money" and "real moist".
These are all very famous memes in later generations.
Since then, in the face of the reporter's interview, Chen Linfeng said some good things as usual.
"In my opinion, this film is a new martial arts type and is expected to open up a new situation. The martial arts films have declined in the past few years. The main reason is that the audience has become bored. I hope this film can arouse their interest."
"Can you make a prediction about the box office of "Embroidered Spring Sword"?"
"Why do you always ask me to predict the box office? I still don't guess it, it's too much."
"..."
"..."
"
As the screenwriter and investor of the film, the media pays great attention to Chen Linfeng, and he has almost become the main marketing target of the film.
He was actually not very disgusted with this. After all, the new director has no reputation and really needs some support.
This is also what he does as a teacher.
Lu Yang obviously got this support and thanked him repeatedly after the premiere.
After the premiere, the media sent a report, focusing on Chen Linfeng's evaluation of the new movie.
Netizens are very curious. He just praised "Lost in Thailand" before.
Now, 10 days later, the box office of "Lost in Thailand" has reached 630 million.
According to the box office curve, the final box office is likely to exceed 1 billion.
Director Chen's golden words have become a hot topic on the Internet.
Now he praised another movie, and he didn't know how the quality of this movie was.
Some of Chen Linfeng's fans really took this Amway.
Besides, as a screenwriter, he is enough to make people feel confident.
Although the rumors say it was just about creativity, the specific story filling was all from the new director.
But these days, it is obviously different if you touch his name.
On New Year's Day, the box office won nearly 30 million on the first day.
Everyone was shocked.
All media have used this as big news and pushed it to the entertainment version of today's headlines.
Don’t even look at Chen Linfeng’s movies in the past, they often cost hundreds of millions of dollars a day, and the box office of more than 2,000 or less than 30 million does not look very interesting.
But in fact, a large number of movies are still in the stage of dying suddenly as soon as they go online.
Take Hong Kong Island's famous director Wang Jing for example.
This year, the Lunar New Year movie "Big Shanghai", directed by him, was released on December 21, on the same day as "Lost in Thailand".
So with the support of Zhou Runfa and Huang Xiaoming, the box office in the first three days was only 23 million, which was not as good as the box office here.
Although there was a reason why "Lost in Thailand" was crowded with the screening, at the beginning, the screening of "Big Shanghai" was not bad. On the contrary, with the support of the star director, the screening was even higher.
As a result, he was beaten up.
To this day, "The Embroidered Spring Sword" has been released, and the screening of "The Great Shanghai" will be further squeezed.
It would be great if you could finally break 100 million when watching a movie.
In this case, it is not easy for "The Emoticon of Spring" to be able to withstand the pressure of "Lost in Thailand" and still earn nearly 30 million box office on the first day.
Many media attribute the reason to Lu Yang's identity. The concept of "Chen Linfeng's disciple" has been hyped up by the media.
In fact, there is something to say here.
At least with the screenwriter Chen Linfeng and the rumors that he was optimistic about this movie, the theaters did give some care in the screening as appropriate.
Maoyan also made appropriate tilts in publicity resources.
No need to say much.
In this way, many people in the industry turned their attention to Chen Linfeng's other disciples.
You should know that there are four great King Kongs that he brought out.
Lu Yang is now showing off and performs well, and I don’t know how others are doing.
For the other three, this kind of attention is always a good thing.
Yan Ying was overjoyed after learning about Lu Yang's new movie results.
It's not easy, the director department has finally released talents again.
This kind of achievement is not as good as hanging banners, but the bulletin board has also been posted with good news.
The publication run by the institute also left the front page to "Embroidered Chun Dao" and Lu Yang.
The day after the box office results came out, Wang Rui called Chen Linfeng and praised him for his performance in leading the students.
At the time when Chen Linfeng was given such a great favor and even allowed him not to come to the school to teach, the college was under pressure.
Now it is finally the first batch of flowers and bear fruit.
Wang Rui excitedly promised, "Xiao Chen, you're doing so beautifully. Don't worry, you will definitely arrange the title at the highest speed."
"Uh, Teacher Wang, I'm not so anxious, just come normally."
"That's not the case. If you make a contribution, you have to reward it well."
Wang Rui insisted on the railway line, "You don't have to worry about this matter. Let's arrange it. You just need to continue to lead the students like this."
"This success rate, the next door Chinese opera will definitely be suppressed by us!"
When the department boss was so excited, Chen Linfeng refused much and just gave it a pity. "I won't become the youngest professor in the future, right?" he thought to himself.
Chen Linfeng quickly checked the Internet.
It turns out that the youngest professor in China was a teacher named Liu Lu. At the age of 22, he was promoted to the youngest full professor because he cracked a certain mathematical conjecture.
Sure enough, all the top talents in China have gone to do science, and this is nothing at all.
Chen Linfeng felt that he was still too arrogant and felt relieved.
The box office has always maintained a slight growth trend during the three-day New Year's Day holiday.
The reputation is maintained very well, and it can even be said to be surprisingly good.
The online evaluation of Chen Linfeng's "new martial arts" is particularly recognized.
This has also aroused the interest of a number of martial arts enthusiasts.
In addition to the fans who trust Chen Linfeng's vision and evaluation, Chen Kun, Shi Xiaolong and others, there is also a large group of fans.
After three days, the total box office reached 94 million, and Maoyan's final box office forecast was 400 million. As a new director, it is really not low.
Chen Linfeng was particularly surprised that his previous life "The Embroidered Spring Sword 1" had no popularity and only achieved nearly 100 million.
Schedule, actor change, marketing gives you some strength, the gap is so big.
On January 10, during the New Year holiday, two movies that Kirin participated in, "Lost in Thailand" and "Embroidered Chunjian", were all following the scheduled box office curve, and the difference between the expected one should be small.
He didn't care more, but focused on the situation of his new film.
At the beginning of last month, the post-production of "The Joker" was almost done.
At that time, he submitted his film to the Berlin Film Festival Organizing Committee, and now it is time to get out of the finalists.
The result is no surprise and the official list of shortlists announced by the Berlin Film Festival is listed.
Not long afterwards, Han Shanping called. "Xiao Chen, are you shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival? Are you going to win the Three Golds this year?"
Obviously, he is not the only one who has paid attention to the shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival.
"Well, I want to try it."
Han Shanping's tone was not optimistic, "It's very difficult to win a super English movie."
"I know, the movie "The Joker" is quite different from previous super English movies."
"That's good, do you need help?"
Chen Linfeng paused, "It doesn't need it now. If there is something really wrong, I will definitely let Mr. Han know then."
"Okay, don't be there at that time. I'll lead the group myself this year. If there are any questions, let's discuss them together."
"Well... well, thank you Mr. Han."
"This is what we say, there is no need to say this."
It seems that others care more about Chen Linfeng's three-month Grand Slam.
Not long after, the phone rang again, this time it was Leonardo's phone call.
"chen, happy new year. By the way, you are celebrating the New Year, I remember it will take many days."
"Well, it's not yet the Lunar New Year, it was New Year's Day before, it's been over."
"Okay, I remember that's wrong."
After the greetings, Leonardo asked hurriedly, "chen, Berlin Film Festival, do you have any ideas?"
Chen Linfeng was silent for a moment, "You... have any ideas?"
"No, I'm thinking, I can help you with public relations at that time."
Leonardo's tone was sincere, "You also know that my goal has always been the little golden man of the Oscars, and you are only short of the Golden Bear Award, so you can win the Grand Slam of the three major international film festivals. I think we can help each other."
In fact, he wanted to win the Berlin actor, even though he had won the Berlin actor for "At Away".
But such things have to be made in nature. Chen is a great director whose status is not inferior to him. Both sides must have the same goals to have better results.
The Oscar next year, I will ask him for help, that's the key point.
Chen Linfeng understood the other party’s intentions and nodded decisively, “I understand that next year’s Oscars will be the priority to win the Oscar winner.”
chen is indeed a genius!
Seeing that the other party instantly understood his thoughts, Leonardo said excitedly, "When you are in Berlin, you can say directly that I will do my best to help you win the Golden Bear Award."
The two parties made a rough agreement and decided the time to leave for Berlin at that time, and then hung up the phone.
Chen Linfeng continued the phone call here.
In terms of media, they were originally hyping this year's New Year's Day and the upcoming Spring Festival.
After the Berlin Organizing Committee reported the shortlist, it immediately changed its focus and focused on reporting the news that Chen Linfeng's "The Joker" was shortlisted.
"Chen Linfeng and Leonardo were shortlisted for the 2013 Berlin Film Festival with "The Joker". "The Grand Slam is only shortlisted for the Berlin Golden Bear, and Chen Linfeng's "The Joker", can he get what he wants?"
"Director Chen Linfeng and starring Leonardo, this year's Berlin Film Festival, superstars are coming."
"..."
Originally, over the years, the Berlin Film Festival has declined, and media reports have focused more on Venice and Cannes.
Now Chen Linfeng is shortlisted with the movie, and there is also a gimmick to hit the Grand Slam, and the popularity is instantly full.
Everyone knows that Chen Linfeng is in Jin Xiong and wants to become the director of the Grand Slam of the Three Golden State at the age of 25.
Coincidentally, this year's Berlin Film Festival has Chinese filmmakers who serve as important judges of the film festival.
Wang Jiawei, as the chairman of the jury of the main competition unit of this year's Berlin Film Festival, instantly became the focus of the media.
Some people in the industry complained privately whether Director Chen chose the best one, and specifically chose to win the award when he was a judge of the Chinese.
The media also had suspicions in this regard, and asked them out during the interview.
"Director Wang, will you take care of your compatriots' film works as the chairman of the jury?" "Of course not. It is a great trust for the organizing committee to find me as a judge. Of course I have to ensure fairness."
"If Director Chen's movies are of good quality, I wouldn't have chosen it just because he and I are compatriots. If other movies are better, I wouldn't have been favored because of my relationship with Director Chen."
I said it firmly, but in fact he had received several calls in private.
Some people let him stumbling around at that time, and some people let him take care of him as much as possible.
Chen Linfeng has been developing in the industry for so many years, and many of them don’t like him.
But Wang Jiawei said that they were thinking too much.
A film festival cannot be decided by a jury chairman. To a large extent, it depends on the attitude of the organizing committee.
Do they want to get rid of Director Chen's hand or want to show goodwill to give him a trip.
It's hard to say.
This is all a later story, so I won’t mention it for now.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
While the country is booming, foreign media also noticed the news that Chen Linfeng's new work was shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival.
On January 11, the second day after Berlin announced its shortlist.
Major mainstream media abroad have reported on the finalists of this year's Berlin Film Festival.
When they report the news, they often mention the combination of Chen Linfeng and Leonardo.
I have to say that these two people were really in the limelight last year.
"Inception" caused a sensation all over the world, and to this day, the aftermath is still there.
The Times Square incident was one of the landmark events in 2012.
The media had just reported it when they were taking stock of major events in the entertainment industry last year.
In addition, counting the global movie box office rankings last year, "Avengers" ranked first with a score of 15.18.
The next is "Inception" $1.266 billion.
In the future, "007's Skyfall Murder" has 1.108 billion, "The Dark Knight Rises" has 1.081 billion, and "The Hobbit 1" has 1.017 billion, "Inception" has overwhelmed these big IPs and big productions, ranking second in its original movie.
It really shocked a group of Hollywood filmmakers and European and American media.
In the past few days after New Year's Day, the entertainment version of major media in the world has been discussed enthusiastically on this topic.
Many filmmakers and critics have a very high evaluation of "Inception" and have repeatedly praised Chen Linfeng's screenwriter level.
Even other Chinese movies have risen.
Two years ago, a "Classic of Chinese Film History" was released in China, of course, the mainland version.
European and American media didn't care much at the beginning, and since the second half of last year, they reported seriously.
The Western media were surprised to see that Chen Linfeng's "Sunset" ranked only sixth.
Then the focus was on the works that ranked in the top ten, especially the top five, and their popularity has greatly improved.
Of course, the top two are to be removed here.
No need to say that the first place is, everyone knows that this is the value of historical value greater than the value of the work itself.
The second-place "Shangganling" is quite embarrassing and has been skipped by most beautiful national media.
Thereafter, "Spring in a Small Town", "Farewell My Concubine" and "Alive" have increased rapidly in Aimeiken's popularity.
There has been a significant increase in the number of loans to these movies in the beautiful domestic disc market.
IMDb's movie rankings top 250, these movies are either on the list quickly or on the rankings quickly.
It has also attracted domestic evaluations of these movies, and the evaluation of these movies has been improved.
This can be considered a kind of celebrity selling goods...
January 15th.
Today is Monday, and it is also the day for the year-end report.
In the past two years, Longlin and Qilin have become much larger, especially the Qilin system, which has been divided into Maoyan and V stations, and their respective developments are very fast.
In the past two years, it has been one after another, creating a huge momentum.
Now they are already well-known companies in the industry.
As in previous years, it is a bit inappropriate to report it separately by the general manager.
So, this year, Longlin and Qilin have a plan together, so everyone just gathered together to report and discuss plans for the coming year together.
According to Chen Shantong's meaning, he wanted to form a fixed example in the future. Not to mention anything else, everyone at least had some understanding of the business under the same group.
It can also be considered as a kind of interoperability of resources.
Chen Linfeng thought about it, he was right. At this level, he could move both sides.
It seems that Song Yi wanted to work hard on the mythical special effects film, Chen Linfeng threw it directly to Long Lin, and started from the TV series, and Long Lin took it decisively.
When making a movie, if you think the actors in a certain drama on Long Lin are good, you can also use it.
But it is not that easy to change to the level of Sister Mei, Xu Wu and Chen Rui.
Sister Mei is fine, after all, she was also a dragon scale at the beginning, at least she knew people.
Xu Wu and Chen Rui have never met Chen Shantong's men at all, and they don't know each other.
They didn't even know what the situation was with Long Lin.
For example, Long Lin and Qilin each have their own media resources.
But when both parties make TV series or movies, they often have to play their own games.
However, the media in the entertainment industry only involves TV series or only reports on movies.
The media under Qilin helped to publish a report promoting Longlin drama. In fact, it didn't take much effort at all, and it was a little money to collect.
But often, Long Lin has to spend additional money to find media, and the effect may not be good.
Only the projects led by the two princes can work hard on both sides.
This actually causes waste of resources.
…
The meeting was held in Qilin's headquarters building.
In the large conference room on the 23rd floor, there were five or six people.
Someone has arrived early.
Long Lin's marketing manager Dong Ruohua and Liu Yun, the big producer of the production department, were talking in a low voice.
Cao Yu pulled Cheng Er, and the two found a seat to sit down and started chatting. "Old Cheng, I didn't see you very much last year. How was the filming of "Hurricane Rescue"?" "Fortunately, the filming was over." Cao Yu joked, "Director Cheng is getting more and more awesome, Fang Long has been trained."
"Don't mention it," Cheng Er shook his head, "It's too difficult to serve such a big shot. If it weren't for Director Chen's help, I wouldn't be able to hold back."
"That's it, I've filmed "Police 2" and have some basic situations."
Cheng Er briefly mentioned a few examples, all of which were Fang Long felt that the action scenes were not enough and wanted to increase the duration. "It's not that I can't stand the situation. What the key person said makes sense. The adjustments given by Fang Long are indeed better, but if you change that way, other people's roles will be compressed. In the end, I will find Director Chen to solve the problem." Cao Yu was shocked, "It's not that I can't change the script after I have decided, it's useless?"
"The script has not been changed. Fang Long is an action guide. When people say it, they just provide a better action plan. What do people say about it?" Cao Yu said, "No wonder, Director Chen left for a while last year, and it turned out that he was going to mediate for you." "Yes." Cheng Er had to say it again, and someone came to the room at this time.
"Director Liu and Director Cheng, you came very early."
Xiao Chang brought Lu Yang, Guo Fan, Shen Ao, Song Yi and others in to introduce to both sides, mainly Liu Yun.
Faced with the big boss's assistant, Liu Yun and Cheng Er are both easy to talk.
Liu Yun waved his hand with a smile, "We all know Mr. Chen's students. Song Yi has done a good job these days, so it's time to get started this year."
The following sentence was said to Song Yi.
Song Yi nodded, "Well, the screenwriter team has written the script. I look very good. I am going to look back and let Director Chen see it, so I started filming in the organization."
"It's great," Liu Yun nodded and looked at Lu Yang again. "Director Lu is famous this year. "The Emoticon of the Spring Sword" really opened everyone's eyes."
Lu Yang said a few modest words, and he has heard too many praises recently.
But now, most of the people present are big shots, and he cannot tolerate him.
He wanted to show off with Guo Fan, Shen Ao and others, but everyone was familiar with him. Who doesn’t know who, and he doesn’t give him a chance at all.
Cheng Er suddenly interrupted and asked Liu Yun, "How is the effect of the online drama Long Lin filmed last year?"
Everyone turned their attention to Liu Yun.
A few years ago, I really didn’t dare to think about not posting the TV series on the TV station, but just broadcast it online.
Long Lin, as the leader in the industry's TV series production, suddenly announced that he would shoot an online drama, so everyone is paying attention to it.
Liu Yun thought for a while and said, "After a meeting, I will talk about the online drama when reporting. Now let me keep it a secret."
After saying that, he pulled open the seat and sat down.
The filming of online dramas is what he meant above, but he can understand it, but the team is not very supportive.
Other departments are not optimistic.
There were even rumors in the company that he had not done anything well and had his hair fucked.
You can't say that they are suspicious. Look at the current online dramas, they are basically synonymous with bad movies.
I really don't see the prospects very much.
Cheng Er smiled helplessly and pulled open the seat and sat down.
Others also sat down one after another.
At this time, people gradually became more and more popular in the conference room, and everyone had their own positioning and looked for seats according to their ideas.
Generally speaking, the creative department, such as the screenwriter team and the production department, thanks to the attention of the boss Chen Linfeng, will have a slightly higher status.
The marketing department is also very important. The heads of several overseas countries are all under the management of the marketing department, and this time they all come to attend the meeting.
The marketing department, personnel, operations, and finance departments basically send one person here.
Today is not their home court.
There are also the directors of Qilin, as well as TV drama directors such as Qian Yanqiu, Kong Sheng, Li Lu, and Liu Weiqi, who have worked more on Long Lin, who have also been there one after another.
They mainly listened, but their status was relatively higher, similar to collaborators.
The sound in the conference room gradually became noisy, and everyone was whispering in a low voice.
At this moment, there was movement outside the door.
Then I saw Chen Linfeng and Chen Shantong in front, followed by Maoyan Xu Wu, V Station Chen Rui, Qilin Zheng Zhihao, Sun Fengmei, Long Lin Wei Jin, etc., and a group of people from Wuyang Wuyang walked in.
The room suddenly became quiet.
The oval table left two seats to the top, and Chen Linfeng and Chen Shantong came to the upper head, and the others were placed on both sides.
Chen Linfeng looked around for a while, "It seems that you are here."
"Since that's the case, the meeting begins!"
