Chapter 301 The Drama Tyrant Jiang Wen
“It’s really interesting that the primary school students actually sang Your Lonely Warrior.” Wang Changtian came to Li Mingyang and said.
“It’s quite magical, and the singing is quite interesting.” Li Mingyang said with a smile.
“Detective Dee’s first-day box office came out, 21 million.”
“Awesome.”
"This first-day box office is second only to the Great Earthquake..."
"And it was released on Wednesday. Old Monster Xu is really amazing."
"This time there is not so much moisture in the main theme. , I feel that this Di Renjie can exceed 600 million if he uses votes to make up for it."
Li Mingyang nodded, Di Renjie does have this potential.
After all, domestic films ranked fourth in the annual box office, second only to Let the Bullets Fly, Earthquake, and If You Are the One 2.
The box office almost exceeded 300 million.
If there is a ticket reimbursement, Di Renjie may really exceed 600 million.
There are many new movies released in September, including The Hawthorn Tree by Lao Mouzi, Sword Rain produced by John Woo, The Legend of Jingwu by Zhen Zhidan, and Di Renjie by Xu Laoguai.
Li Mingyang has watched all four movies. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Then I was lucky and didn’t encounter Nolan’s “Inception”.
Inception was originally scheduled to be released on September 1st.
Because China Film did not reimburse the tickets, it was withdrawn.
Now Warner and China Film are just doing this.
Li Mingyang estimates that Inception will be released in October.
If it is not released, movie fans will have enough of high-definition pirated copies.
Hollywood blockbusters are gathering this year, and the first Avatar in film history has been released.
Another Iron Man 2, creating the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Then there was Inception, which took the world by storm.
These three movies, even if watched more than ten years later, are still top Hollywood commercial blockbusters.
In fact, domestic movies are not bad.
In terms of influence, the golden age of Hong Kong films is no less than that of Hollywood.
In terms of action movies, it even beats Hollywood and became popular all over the world.
Times have changed, and Hong Kong movies have become lonely.
Hollywood blockbusters use dazzling special effects to bombard the world and harvest global box office.
It is difficult to cultivate filmmakers who can resist the box office. In the golden age of Hong Kong films, a group of the best filmmakers in the country gathered together to create that prosperous era.
However, people will eventually grow old, and if they cannot follow the trend, they will only be eliminated by the times.
The Hong Kong community relies on people.
Hollywood relies on the film industrialization system.
Although many bad movies are produced every year, there will always be a small number of extremely high-quality movies that reap box office success around the world.
Manpower sometimes runs out.
The industrialized system can survive from generation to generation.
Domestic films need talents, and they also need film industrialization.
China Film Group has been promoting the industrialization of films.
Promoting the film market is just a means to attract capital, not the purpose.
The real purpose of China Film Group is to use capital to promote the industrialization of films.
However, the domestic film industrialization will truly reach the Hollywood level only when the small breaking ball is released.
The Wandering Earth is not a director’s problem, but a problem for the entire film industry.
Why Tiny Ball scares Hollywood is not only because its quality has reached the standard of Hollywood blockbusters.
Also because the success of Broken Ball is the success of the film industrialization.
Film industrialization is the ability to continuously produce hit movies.
"Continuous" refers to the production capacity of movies, and "hits" refers to the quality of movies.
These are all things that can only be given by the film industrialization.
As someone who has experienced this, Li Mingyang feels that Hollywood is too worried...it is unfounded.
The little broken ball is special, the only one...
The Fengshen Trilogy is pure nonsense, a half-finished product.
Li Mingyang has been thinking about how to create his own film industrialization.
The Bear Haunting model is worth learning from, but it is not enough.
The yield of bear infestation is too low.
Stable output, stable and explosive. If you take the path of theatrical movies, it will be too long.
The process of cinematic movies from preparation to release to market feedback is a long one.
Moreover, he vaguely felt that it would be difficult for One Punch Man to meet expectations if it were to be a direct theatrical movie.
Domestic films are entering a period of rapid development, and there are still many high-quality works.
For example, Let the Bullets Fly, a movie released this year.
Once a theatrical movie fails at the box office, it will have a huge impact on the director and actors. Li Mingyang would not dare to rush into it without being completely sure.
The success of the spy.
Opened up the Internet major track.
Li Mingyang took a look at the websites that have had over 100 million clicks in recent months, and found that most of them were vulgar and sentimental websites that were just sideline.
Shoddy production, selling meat based on social sentiment, is the current situation of Internet universities.
If you don’t brush aside, you will be sorry to the audience. For the current Internet market, a 50-million-yuan high-quality Internet giant is like killing a chicken with a dragon's knife, killing them all.
Li Mingyang doesn't even think about how much money he can make from the internet.
Online University does not require various reviews, just take photos and upload directly, and you can get feedback in a short time.
Cultivating talents and creating a film industrialization system that is famous for entertainment is the top priority.
The best candidate to lead the film industrialization system is naturally Li Mingyang.
But he is too busy and needs someone like Zhang Zhao to help him share the burden and help him plan.
Wu Zhikui was the most suitable, but he only wanted to be a director.
So he trained Ye Xiangdong.
Ye Xiangdong is not very professional, but he and Wu Zhikui discussed the copyright of One Punch Man in their childhood together.
He is quick-witted and good at communication, and he is from Beijing Film Academy. He is usually trusted by Wu Zhikui. He has good prestige and can control people.
Li Mingyang originally planned to let Ye Xiangdong cooperate with Wu Zhikui to operate One Punch Man's net to gain more experience.
Unexpectedly, Wu Zhikui took over the power and did not need Ye Xiangdong at all.
It made Ye Xiangdong embarrassed and turned into a clown.
The phone rang again, it was Ye Xiangdong’s.
Li Mingyang muted his cell phone and didn't want to answer it.
He will meet Jiang Wen later and needs to think carefully.
At around 11 o'clock at noon, Li Mingyang and Wang Changtian came to a Japanese-style club in the center of Magic City and met the famous Jiang Wen.
There are also his wife Zhou Yun, brother Jiang Wu, and good friends Wang Shuo, Xu Dahua, and Boss Yang.
Li Mingyang and Wang Changtian glanced at each other in unison. Didn't they agree beforehand that it would be just the three of them?
"Director Li, you are amazing." Jiang Wen hugged his shoulders enthusiastically and praised him as soon as they met.
Zhou Yun, Jiang Wu, Wang Shuo, Xu Dahua, and Boss Yang all smiled and nodded.
"Director Jiang, you are even more amazing." Li Mingyang replied in the same way,
Suddenly, everyone laughed. Jiang Wen and Yang Tian laughed twice, pushed Li Mingyang's back, and first Take a seat.
The seat is a legless tatami chair. You have to sit cross-legged or stretch your legs, which is not particularly comfortable anyway.
Li Mingyang and Wang Changtian sat on the left side of the low table, while Jiang Wen and others sat on the right side, a bit like a two-party meeting.
Jiang Wen took the initiative to arrange this dinner.
The conversation was also about movies. When Jiang Wen talked about Li Mingyang's famous work Love in a Bouquet, he couldn't stop the car.
The dishes are all served and we are still talking.
The others responded with a few words at first, but then they all shut up and listened to him alone.
Xu Dahua sounded bored, stretched his legs across the low table, and landed next to Li Mingyang, within reach.
Li Mingyang took a look at Teacher Xu’s stocking feet and felt nothing, so he pretended not to see them.
Although Xu Dahua is his teacher, she really doesn't care about his aesthetics.
The temptation of black stockings is quite boring.
Xu Dahua rolled her eyes when she saw that Li Mingyang was too lazy to look at her. If Boss Yang and Wang Changtian hadn't been there, she would have really wanted to teach her students a lesson.
After one meal, I listened to Jiang Wenhu and the sea.
After eating, Jiang Wen drank and poured himself a glass of wine, which made him confused.
Boss Yang asked Jiang Wu and Zhou Yun to take care of Jiang Wen.
He signaled to Li Mingyang and Wang Changtian to go next door to discuss things.
Next door is a smaller tea room. There is no tea on the coffee table, only three cups and three bottles of sake.
The three of them sat down and Boss Yang got three glasses of wine.
One cup was handed to Wang Changtian, and the other cup was handed to Li Mingyang.
"Director Li, I heard that your movie has been reviewed. When is the premiere date set?" Boss Yang took a sip of sake and said with a smile.
"You have to ask Mr. Wang about this matter." Li Mingyang pushed the ball to Wang Changtian.
Boss Yang’s smile grew stronger and he looked at Wang Changtian.
“It’s quite lively this year. I originally thought there were only four of us, but I didn’t expect Zhao Dashan to schedule Laughter in December.”
Wang Changtian didn’t say it directly; Turned a corner.
"I really didn't expect that Zhao Dashan is here. Director Chen's Orphan of the Zhao Family is scheduled to be released on December 4th. Laughing Jianghu is scheduled to be released on December 3rd. Those who don't know may think they have a grudge, haha."
“I don’t know, we can first see how they compete.”
“Let the bullets fly, I’m going to set the date for the 16th, what do you think of this day?”
>
Wang Changtian frowned slightly, he had already decided on this day.
“Feng Pants’s Never Disturb 2 hasn’t been finished yet, right?” Li Mingyang said.
Boss Yang smiled and nodded, thinking to himself: "This Li Mingyang is even more unscrupulous than Jiang Wen. He called Feng Pants in front of him... Haha, Feng Pants has really met his opponent this time."
"Let's choose a schedule first. He can enter at any time... I estimate that Feng Pants will set the end of the month to harvest the box office market in January." After Li Mingyang finished speaking, he waved his hand again, "No, no, Feng Pants may Set it around the 24th to dampen the spirit of letting the bullets fly."
"Probably not..."
"Although Yinghuang and Huayi have many cooperations, Feng Pants. Movies are the lifeblood of Huayi. If Feng Pants fails to win the annual championship this year, then Weibo’s Feng Xiaogang will be the biggest joke in the entertainment industry this year.”
Li Mingyang paused. , mocking himself: "Although I clamored to bet 100 million with Feng Pants, I am self-aware. If your name can get 300 million, I will be very satisfied. In my opinion, Feng Pants' biggest opponent this year is Director Jiang." .”
Boss Yang stopped smiling now, but frowned, poured himself a glass of wine, and wondered what Li Mingyang meant.
In just over a year, Li Mingyang rose to prominence and became the most legendary director in domestic entertainment.
Boss Yang doesn’t dare to underestimate him.
“You mean, you want to help Jiang Wen become the new box office king.” Boss Yang asked doubtfully.
"Absolutely." Wang Changtian said.
