Chapter 878 This is a comedy movie with a box office of 1.5 billion+
"Co-produced by Zhenledao, Guangguang, and Lin Nan Pictures, directed by Xu Zhengzheng, Xu Zheng, Bao Beier, Du Juan, Zhao Yanzi, etc. starring;
The third part of the "囧" series, "囧 in Hong Kong", was officially released yesterday, with a strong first-day box office revenue of 199 million, accounting for 86% of the total daily box office! ”
"A large number of netizens and fans pointed out that Bao Bei'er's acting skills are exaggerated, stiff, deliberately imitating, pretending to be stupid, and forcefully funny... his acting skills are far inferior to Wang Baoqiang."
"Comprehensive Film Review of the Movie "Embarrassed in Hong Kong" Compared with "囧" and "囧路", actor Bao Bei'er is undoubtedly the biggest failure of the film;
But the flaws do not hide the good points. The movie "囧 in Hong Kong" is still a masterpiece of comedy. Director Xu Zheng has tried his best to make the plot as sublime as possible..."
"According to industry insiders' estimates, the final box office of "囧 in Hong Kong" will be zero. Unsurprisingly, it will surpass the previous film "囧";
If there are no other strong competitors during the National Day period, the total box office of the film will most likely exceed the 2 billion yuan mark, and the box office of the "囧" series will once again A new high! ”
Online film and television entertainment news has been dominated by "囧".
"Terminator: Genisys", "Mission: Impossible 5", "Minions", etc. Imported blockbusters, which have been suppressing domestic films for more than a month, finally sounded the clarion call to fight back
Wang Changtian was even more excited and called to "harass" Lin Nan early in the morning.
Just as he expected, Ray's stock price has been going up since 9:30 in the morning, rising more than two points in an hour, making it the envy of many film and television companies in the industry.
"It's a pity that Xu Zheng and Huanxi have an exclusive agreement. In the "囧" series after "囧", the light will definitely not be included."
"Okay, the light The biggest profit this time is not from the box office, but from the stock market and market capitalization; at least for a month, the stock price of Raytheon will most likely be in the red!”
Lin Nan replied angrily, Old! Wang is really hypocritical; but the "exclusive agreement" he mentioned is indeed true.
From the day Huanxi resumed trading on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the six-year film investment "exclusive agreement" between the listed company and Ning Hao and Xu Zheng came into effect immediately.
After that, within 6 years, Huanxi Media will have priority investment rights and then exclusive rights for all their movies!
Lin Nan heard from Ning Hao that the core clause of Huanxi's "Big Director Alliance Plan" is the "Exclusive Agreement". This agreement is tied to the equity in equal measure.
"Who can resist not wanting more? The "囧" series is already a big IP! 199 million on the first day, tsk tsk, 2 billion is right in front of you, haha..."
“It’s not even half time yet, Mr. Wang, why don’t you open the champagne in advance?!”
Lin Nan didn't even know what to say to Wang Changtian? So you don't take "Charlotte's Trouble" seriously? Just because that movie doesn’t have big-name actors and isn’t a big IP?
"It's a done deal. It's a pity that when the celebration banquet was held, you should still be on the crew of "Operation Mekong" and you won't be able to come back!"
Wang Changtian's tone of voice Here, with a strong sense of confidence, he is really flying.
However, it is understandable. With 199 million on the first day, it would be weird if it didn’t go viral; there are probably not many people in the industry who can’t help but do so!
A few minutes later, Lin Nan dismissed Lao Wang. Let Wang Changtian and Xu Zheng be the targets of the media. It seems that they are also enjoying it.
"Lin Nan, hurry up..."
Liu Yifei urged at the gate, and they agreed to go out to play together.
......
A "囧" has two kinds of "word-of-mouth" performance on the Internet;
Not many people criticize the movie, but Bao Bei The number of people there is simply overwhelming.
Even Xu Zheng was ridiculed and abused by netizens for replacing Wang Baoqiang with Bao Bei'er, saying that the latter ruined the movie and cost it a lot of points.
I have to say that some media are really powerful.
They were actually able to dig out the fact that Xu Zheng kicked off Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo due to profit reasons, and broke the news on the Internet, adding another fire to public opinion.
Even if the latter two cooperated with Xu Zheng to "clarify" again, the vast majority of netizens did not quite believe it.
This is the entertainment industry after all, and fake “emotions” abound.
What's more, only a fool would refuse the sequel to a series that is destined to be a high box office hit! He is part of the original crew!
Most netizens, movie fans, and viewers on the Internet also know that even if the content of the revelations is true, it is absolutely impossible for the parties involved to admit it.
Because Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo are both old people in the film and television industry, how could they offend Xu Zheng, a great director and capital investor, because of these "little things" that have passed? Absolutely impossible!
On the second day of its release, "囧 in Hong Kong" was mixed with all kinds of public opinions, rumors, and gossip at the high box office. It was fermented and circulated together, and it was impossible to clarify.
……
The news that "Operation Mekong" will be launched in the capital during the National Day has spread.
After hearing the news, Huang Xiaoming made a special call to inquire about Lin Nan and Liu Yifei’s shooting arrangements on the 8th, for fear that they would not be able to attend the wedding.
In this regard, Lin Nan guaranteed that he would not miss the appointment.
Although the filming of the movie will officially start during the National Day, there are many other things going on in October, and Lin Nan has to stop work several times: Huang Xiaoming’s wedding, Nortel’s school anniversary...
One In the morning, he spent hundreds of thousands, and Director Lin paid the bill; it was not until the afternoon that he went to the company alone.
Liu Yifei, on the other hand, was accompanied by Shu Chang and Han Jianu, and they went racing together. Although classmate Xiao Han is usually carefree, on the track, she is just a "rookie" and the one who is always being abused. It is really miserable!
“Your role is small and can be completed in one day at most, but the specific shooting time cannot be determined, so you have to be mentally prepared.”
Studio This On the first floor, Reba happened to be there, so Lin Nan came over.
"Well, don't worry, Director Lin. Just give me a call when the time comes and I will fly to the set immediately." Reba immediately nodded and agreed.
Lin Nan took a serious tour of the studios of four people for the first time. Although they were all on the same floor, the area of each studio was quite large. It was far larger than many medium-sized companies in the industry. Well, it was bigger than Jiaxing!
The decoration styles of the four studios are also very different. Generally speaking, the studio styles of Reba and Zhao Liying are much warmer than those of Zhang Yi and Lei Jiayin, and are in line with female aesthetics! As for those two rough guys, they were totally in a business style and didn't feel like "home" at all!
“Except for advertisements and announcements, the studio has not accepted any more drama appointments recently. Firstly, Liying needs to rest, and secondly, she is also preparing for the TV series adapted from the "Zhu Xian" novel... …”
People at Zhao Liying’s studio thought Lin Nan was “inspecting work”, but he was very proactive!
……
On the morning of the 27th, "Embarrassed in Hong Kong" grossed an extremely high box office of 247 million the next day, shocking the entire film industry.
At the same time, the news of the premiere of "Charlotte" also "difficultly" squeezed into the hot search, which was held in the morning. This is the result of Lin Nan leaving the relationship!
It seems that the industry and the media are not very optimistic about Lin Nan’s investment in Happy Twist’s first movie.
The reason is because Happy Mahua is a little-known company that produces stage plays!
“You really don’t need me to go with you?”
"No need."
Lin Nan rolled his eyes and didn't dare to say anything. He could only mutter in his heart:
"I'm about to set off, and you still trick me? Wearing pajamas and loose clothes With her hair down and not washed, she is obviously ready to go back to sleep!"
"Oh, go ahead, I'll sleep a little longer..."
Liu Yifei. He smiled and then walked back to the room with lazy steps, leaving Lin Nan alone in the living room looking at the second floor, quite speechless.
"Let's go!"
At around ten o'clock in the morning, Lin Nan arrived at the premiere of "Charlotte Trouble".
How to say it? Even with the support of Lin Nan, the investor,... the scene here still looks very shabby!
There were only more than a hundred artists from the industry who came to support the show, and most of them were second- or third-tier actors. Among them, there were mostly drama actors, stage actors, and sketch actors, and there were almost no first-tier film and television stars.
As for the number of media, there are quite a few, there are more than 20 to 40 reporters!
"Director Lin, let me introduce to you: Wei Xiang, who is also a contracted actor of our Happy Twist. He has had filming appointments several times before, so you haven't seen him."
The scene looks like this, so it's not very formal. What's the matter? Yan Fei took someone and introduced him to Lin Nan.
"Director Lin, I am Wei Xiang, from the 03-level vocational class."
A round face and a contagious smile, well, the kind of comedian!
The name of the school is not added in front of "03 Vocational Class", which also means that the other party is also from Nortel, because Lin Nan is from Nortel!
A joke, a self-introduction, seems to bring the relationship closer? Emotional intelligence is very good!
“Hello.”
Lin Nan shook hands with the other party. In other words, the other party is also his employee!
"Director Lin, your position is at the front."
As Yan Fei moved forward, greetings were heard all around, and the media focused their cameras on Lin Nan. He is Today’s scene is also the top one in the industry!
Movie premieres that are smaller and simpler are often more formal, without too many fancy social links; and the premiere of "Charlotte" was exactly like this.
The movie started to be screened. Thanks to Lin Nan's support and the result of personally running to the General Administration, some shots and lines were not modified or deleted.
For example, at the beginning of the movie, the groom said: "Qiu Ya is a good girl, and I don't regret divorcing her for her at all";
Another example is Tian Yu's teacher Wang's lines: "You think you are the principal, who do you want to sleep with?";
And what Meng Te's father said: "I wonder, how could a man like me give birth to such a sissy?" ?”
And the scene where Jay Chou plagiarized a song that had already been released and was reminded by Qiu Ya!
There are many more like this.
Facts have proved that a good comedy can completely arouse everyone's emotions without distinction;
Just like now, the laughter in the audience never stops, all from the heart Laughter, being amused by the plot and performance of the movie!
A movie of more than 100 minutes, the plot is smooth and full;
It is a dream from beginning to end, a dream of yellow rice, but when you wake up, you have changed into a "human world".
Amidst thunderous applause, the movie ended. As agreed upon in advance, Lin Nan was invited to the stage and stood with all the creators.
He first hugged Tian Yu: "Long time no see, Teacher Wang!"
"Haha... I don't remember what your classmate gave me?" Tian Yu fell in love in a second play!
The main creative staff was supposed to be the first to speak, but the microphone was handed over to Lin Nan.
He looked at all the guests and media reporters at the scene, and spoke very definitely and seriously:
“I am very sure, certain and firm to tell you that "Charlotte Troubles" is a movie that is not inferior to "Charlotte". "Hong Kong" is even a stronger comedy movie, and if nothing else happens, its box office can compete with "Hong Kong"!
In other words, I think: "Charlotte", this is. It’s a comedy movie with a box office of 1.5 billion+, I’m looking forward to it!”
As Lin Nan’s words fell, the media reporters and guests at the scene became noisy.
In everyone's impression, Lin Nan rarely makes such a big, "box office accurate" "publicity" for a movie, using his own appeal!
And this is precisely the last help Lin Nan can do for this movie: a gimmick, a big gimmick with a box office of 1.5 billion+, not inferior to "囧" or even better than "囧"!
It is not a problem for Lin Nan to ride on the popularity of "囧 in Hong Kong". After all, he is also one of the producers of "囧" and is the biggest beneficiary!
Looking at Yan Fei, Peng Damo, Shen Teng, Ma Li, Wang Zhi, Yin Zheng, Song Yang, Tian Yu and others at this time, they all stared at Lin Nan with shocked, excited and excited eyes. .
This is the box office prediction given by Director Lin Da... more than 1.5 billion!
