Chapter 419 Fine-tuning, times have changed
The box office of that big ship has reached 950 million, ranking the highest in April.
The theater chain estimates that "Titanic 3D" should be able to collect another 20 to 30 million before it is released.
But it is almost impossible to think of a box office of 1 billion.
Ning Hao feels like he has taken medicine. Even though the movie has been released, he is still promoting it hard. Of course, the effect is also very good.
"Heist" is the only domestic film that has managed to survive under the siege of Hollywood blockbusters, and has won applause from the industry.
“63 million in the first week, this figure is not bad, it’s not in vain that I worked so hard to promote it.”
Ning Hao’s thoughts on the success of “The Robbery” in this harsh environment I am still very satisfied with the box office results, and I am still full of fighting spirit.
"In the period before the release of "Avengers", if you persist, the box office will be better."
Hearing Lin Nan's suggestion on the phone, Ning Hao bit Teeth nodded.
He watched that movie. It was a standard Hollywood popcorn movie, and it was a very strong one.
The period before the release of "Avengers" is indeed a rare opportunity for "Heist" to increase its box office.
Lin Nan originally invested 10 million, and he has helped promote it several times in the past two days.
I just hope that the final box office results of "The Heist" can be more impressive.
On the other hand, Huang Jiaozhu's 30 million-dollar film "The Man" only had a box office of 14 million in its first week. The ending has been decided, a huge loss!
But then again, although the movie is destined to be a loss, "Everyman" has indeed won Huang Xiaoming a lot of praise.
The attitude of not caring about the box office or losing money, but focusing only on movies, allowed him to successfully enter the circle of film producers.
In addition, Huang Xiaoming has also been favored by many producers and directors. The road ahead will definitely be better.
The worst thing is that the combination of Guan Fu and Huang Bo was completely defeated.
"Killing" was released for three days, and the box office was less than 4 million, which made many people in the industry feel a little weird.
But the fact is that if the audience doesn’t give you face, no matter how much you promote it, it won’t help.
…………
The "Four Famous Catchers" and "Genius Gunslinger" were in the same batch of lists and were announced.
The former is scheduled to be released on July 1st, and the latter is scheduled to be released on July 27th.
Compared with "Four Famous Catchers", which has original works for reference, the majority of netizens and film companies in the industry are paying more attention to "Genius Gunslinger".
Everyone remembers that the movie script written by Lin Nan was rejected once at first!
“The Genius Gunslinger, directed by director Lin Nan, produced and starring Liu Yifei, and starring Zhu Yawen, Shu Chang, Luo Jin and others, is officially scheduled for summer.”
"The secrecy of "Genius Gunman" is very good. We still don't know the specific story content. We can only guess from the movie title that the plot involves cheating in exams..."
...
The media is worried about asking. Although the content of the movie is not available, Liu Yifei had a happy chat with fans on Weibo and revealed some content when answering questions.
"I play a female academic, a very powerful one! Everyone will know by then."
"Shu Chang plays a rich girl who can only cry, has no scheming, and is very poor in studies. She is still My best friend..."
"Zhu Yawen? He..."
...
"Oh! I can't say any more. If I talk too much, I'll be punished again. The director criticized, well, it was very harsh...
...
Lin Nan was participating in the last copyright forum of the film festival, when Jiang Wen next to him bumped him with his elbow.
"Director Lin, you made the headlines."
"Let me see?"
Two or three minutes later, Lin Nan figured out the whole story and was a little bit dumbfounded.
Many fans "teached" him in a joking tone not to lose his temper, not to criticize Liu Yifei, and to listen to his girlfriend...
Many people in the industry also came to join in the fun and tease Lin Nan. Because everyone could tell that Liu Yifei was joking and spreading nonsense.
……
“I originally thought that you would put one of “The Geniuses” or “Passengers” in the Lunar New Year movie.”
Lin Nan watched He glanced at Jiang Wen, who had a regretful expression on his face, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I've prepared "囧", this movie is enough!"
Jiang Wen's eyes suddenly lit up, "Haha, you better understand me, get him!"
On the rostrum, Feng Xiaogang has been replaced, and the target of his attack is piracy.
As soon as he opened his mouth, his vulgar words made many people below feel uncomfortable, but more people applauded.
"We have been gang-raped by pirates countless times. Now they are still fucking me, so let them fuck me. We are all chickens anyway, but we still have to fight our way out..."
< br>After talking about the current situation, Feng Xiaogang began to fire on the top.
"Several imported films are not pirated in China, and even "Battleship" was released earlier here than in North America, because the relevant departments protect it very well, and there is no piracy."
"But the above has never If we don't protect our own domestic films, Ning Hao's "The Robbery" will be a disaster. That is a ready-made example before us.
Piracy has already been released before the film is released, causing heavy losses..."< br>
……
Feng Xiaogang’s speech was rough and rational, and Lin Nan gave him applause.
In particular, he has a sentence that is very realistic and chilling:
“Many pirated copies are leaked from the film copy factory and from internal personnel, which are our state-owned enterprises...”< br>
The consequences of talking too much were being interrupted several times by the host, and finally being "invited" to leave. Some leaders looked ugly.
......
Huayi announced that "1942" will be released during the Lunar New Year period. The specific date is to be determined because it needs to coordinate the release time with several other films of the company.
Wang Zhonglei made bold statements in front of the media, "We are full of confidence in "1942". The box office of this movie will definitely exceed "The Great Earthquake", just a lot more."
... Capital The International Film Festival ended successfully.
When Cameron left, he also revealed the scars of the domestic film industry, saying that he hoped that China would relax restrictions on film shooting and not curb the creation of filmmakers.
Everyone thanked them politely, not expecting the superiors to listen.
...
"In order not to affect "Passengers", and to try to stagger the movies of several of you great directors, I have made fine adjustments in the film schedule."
On the phone, Han Sanping was mysterious. He said with a tone of wisdom.
"Fine-tuning?"
"Yes. "The Amazing Spider-Man" and "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises", both of which are top Hollywood blockbusters, were originally going to be placed on
I asked China Film Distribution Company to move these two films to the last few days of the summer season. These two science fiction blockbusters will be released on the same day, August 27.
This will not affect your "The Genius", nor will it affect the National Day release of "Passengers". How about it? Hahaha..."
Hearing what Han Sanping said, Lin Nan swallowed. He couldn't help but sigh, this operation is amazing!
Of course, it is also possible that China Film Group was criticized during this period. It’s so powerful. After all, Hollywood movies are bloodbathing the movie market, killing domestic films with blood and no bones left.
“This is indeed a good thing! It will be like April in the future, and a large number of film companies will suffer losses or even go bankrupt this year. "Lin Nan replied.
"Alas, there is no other way. I have tried my best. The best and middle-of-the-road solution that China Film Group can think of now is to let Hollywood blockbusters compete with each other and do their own thing.
Then, try to save the lives of you commercial blockbusters. The director’s movie. You have to cheer me up!”
Han Sanping said earnestly, which made Lin Nan feel a little moved. Han Sanping is indeed worried about the domestic film industry.
He thought about it and decided to reciprocate the favor and sell Han Jianu.
"Well, don't worry, Dong Han, I have confidence in "The Genius" and "Passengers".
Also, let me tell you that Han Ga Nyeo is back. The final exam will be waived and will be replaced by practical exercises from "Thailand". She has already started her summer vacation in advance..."
Sure enough, after hearing this, Han Sanping reacted and remembered this matter.
"Oh, you're back? That’s okay, I’ll find a crew for her...”
…………
The next day, it was just as Lin Nan expected.
When China Film announced the schedule for imported films in the second half of the year, all production companies first paid attention to the two science fiction blockbusters.
“China Film has finally made a move. This slate of films is interesting and amazing!”
“August 27th is also a summer release, so there’s nothing wrong with it. “The Big Four” and “The Genius” are the biggest ones. The beneficiaries!”
“The "Space Passengers" produced by China Film and other companies are also beneficiaries..."
…………
Liu Yifei glanced at Lin Nan from time to time, and then giggled.
“Still laughing?”
“It’s good, you see they all told you to be nice to me, don’t act like a great director, don’t bully me...”
Liu Yifei pretended to be pitiful, talking and acting.
At this moment, Lin Nan saw what it means: women are born actors!
"How dare I? I'm afraid of domestic violence..."
Lin Nan raised his eyebrows and said jokingly.
"No, I will also expose your 'atrocities' on Weibo, so that everyone..."
Before Lin Nan could finish speaking, Liu Yifei was swooped over Fei was suppressed.
“Hmph, that’s a nice thought, but I’m a weak woman and no one will believe you.”
The two of them were breathing heavily. Lin Nan looked at her arrogant look and said softly:
"Then please Miss Liu, a weak woman, get off me first. Although her butt is very soft and very upturned, , It’s quite comfortable, but it’s really easy to get angry, Sissy.”
“…”
…………
"One Person’s Martial Arts". The entire cast has been announced.
From the perspective of the mainland film industry, there is a sense of pride and elation.
But in the eyes of Hong Kong circles and Hong Kong media, this is a naked insult.
Once upon a time, it was all mainland actors who provided supporting roles for Hong Kong actors, and most of the female leads were from the mainland.
But this "One Man's Martial Arts" is completely opposite. The director and the two leading actors are all actors from the Mainland.
Only the female lead is from Hong Kong. To be strict, the female lead cannot be considered a Hong Kong actor. After all, she is from the Mainland.
In addition, all the supporting roles and extras in the film crew are from Hong Kong.
The Hong Kong media are all criticizing Lin Nan Pictures and Yinghuang, and many Hong Kong filmmakers are also irritated.
"Lin Nan has no respect for the Hong Kong film industry at all. This is asking our Hong Kong actors to step in for mainland actors..."
"In order to make money and the mainland market, Yinghuang even loses his face. No more!”
……
For one day, there was a lot of commotion on Hong Kong Island, as if Lin Nan had really been defiled.
Lin Nan heard that Yang Shoucheng had criticized a lot of people, and he certainly couldn’t be idle, so he immediately posted on Weibo:
“The ‘adults’ in Hong Kong circles, times have changed. It has changed.
In the past and even now, if someone made a fuss, that was their business. This would never happen to me.
If you are really angry, Just make a movie yourself and slap it in other people's faces, instead of just making noises every day..."
