Chapter 28 Daily life (2)

Wu Baige returned to China from Hollywood, and the first person to contact him was China Film.

China Film, no, it should be said that Chinese media companies are superstitious about big directors, so they are willing to spend 100 million US dollars to shoot "Red Cliff"!

If you want to make money and recover your costs, the domestic box office alone must be at least 2 billion.

Of course, China Film and Television is very clear that this is impossible. After all, the national box office last year was only more than 3 billion yuan, so they bet on overseas box office, mainly Asian box office.

Taking advantage of Wu Baige's "strong" appeal, he promoted "Red Cliff" to all over Asia.

The facts are as they wish. Wu Baige has accumulated fame over the years. "Red Cliff" is also in South Korea, and RB, including Southeast Asian countries, was released.

It also set a good box office record, and even achieved a box office record of more than 50 million US dollars in RB!

It is useless and can only charge a quarter of the overseas box office.

After the final settlement, China Film Group never expected that "Red Cliff" would actually lose nearly 100 million yuan.

A huge loss in the absolute sense!

Wu Baige also ran back to the bend of shame. Later, he produced a movie "The Blood Case of One Rod and Several Rods" (Sword Rain), and directed "The Wheel of Taiping" himself. He still lost his blood and no longer had the courage of the past. By the way, he was still thinking about joining the film industry, and he really didn't know where the confidence came from.

Of course, "Red Cliff" has not been released yet, and the promotion is in full swing.

China Film Group has invested so much money, of course I hope to make a little profit.

The public relations are done well, and a bunch of film critics expressed their expectation for Wu Baige's "Red Cliff". CCTV Movie Channel has released the story behind "Red Cliff" for a month in a row.

Xu Hui Diss Wu Baige at this time. Although this episode was not available during the official broadcast, someone recorded it on his mobile phone and posted it online, which was like a knife on his head!

Before China Film Group could take action, there was already a shock on the Internet.

After all, Xu Hui is currently the only young actor in the country. He likes him many fans and hates him more!

The Internet is a good thing, everyone can speak, and they don’t have to be responsible for what they say.

So the couple accused Xu Hui in various ways, saying that he did not respect his predecessors or the like.

These are still good, most of them are calling him a fool, saying that he doesn’t deserve to carry his shoes to Wu Baige!

There are also rational netizens, and Xu Hui is right. Director HK is indeed not good at movies with historical themes. Wu Baige's strength lies in the gangster themes.

But Xu Hui obviously used Wu Baige to hype "The Embroidered Spring Sword", which made them quite disgusting.

So, Xu Hui was almost out of the entertainment industry!

Fortunately, Xu Hui has many brainless fans. For Xu Hui's reputation, they skipped classes and came to the Internet cafe to talk to these people.

"Do you know how hard we Xu Hui worked? He once practiced dancing and broke his legs with his bones;"

"He had a fever of 62 degrees and insisted on singing on stage for the wait of many fans;"

"I've been swollen more than 30 times, but I'm still practicing pronunciation;"

"Having 30 billion fans around the world, but never proud, and proficient in the languages ​​of South Korea and North Korea. On February 29 and 30 each year, the charity performance will be held, donating all the 2 trillion US dollars of income to the children in Switzerland who cannot afford to go to school..."

I'll go, you're a black fan!

No matter what, Xu Hui and "Embroidered Chun Dao" have spread all over the Internet.

...

"You have just signed a contract with Huayi, are you going to leave?"

Wu Jing frowned, thinking Xu Hui was a little unreliable.

"What else can I do? I won't apologize to Wu Baige, and I don't want to be hidden, so I can only leave Huayi."

Xu Hui actually felt that it was not very appropriate.

He chose Huayi because he felt that the company was strong. Even Huayi, which had lost the domestic box office champion for three consecutive years in 2017, is still the number one domestic private media group in the hearts of many viewers!

But Huayi has a kind of admiration for HK in its bones, and the Taiwanese director also has the meaning of being a star. Even if their director is Feng Xiaogang, they still think that HK stars are awesome.

This is also the main reason why they are overtaken by light, and they cannot see the development of the times clearly.

But now it is 2008, until 2012, Huayi has been a small presence in China.

It is indeed not wise to make a grudge with him at this time.

"...Will you ask Huang Wen to see if there is any good solution."

Wu Jing gave him an idea.

Xu Hui didn't say anything. He knew very well that the best solution to this matter was that the box office of "The Embroidered Spring Sword" really made anal. Xu Hui became the hottest new director. By then, he would not have to look for the Wang brothers, Wang Zhongjun, and Wang Zhonglei would naturally look at him differently.

Capital is the most conscienceless.

"From next week, we will be on a national roadshow..."

Xu Hui took the initiative to talk about the topic.

"Roadshow? Which stops are there? When we were on the roadshow..."

Wu Jing also talked about his experiences in the circle over the years with great face.

...

"Don't worry, we have already said hello. All portals will not have similar news exposure. As for those forums, post bars, etc., we will try our best to arrange personnel to block keywords..."

Huang Wen is reporting his work schedule to Wang Zhonglei.

Xu Hui sat aside bored, looking at the water cup in his hand, and the color of the coffee table could be seen through the transparent bottom of the cup.

Well, this is authentic redwood!

The furniture made of mahogany will increase several times in the next few years. Do you think I want to stock up a little?

"I said Mr. Hui, can you say less in the future? You are a director now. Don't just comment on other directors in the circle casually, especially big directors like Wu Baige!"

Huang Wen hung up the phone and saw Xu Hui who was studying furniture. He couldn't help complaining.

"I also want to start a discussion..."

The most real reason is that Xu Hui knew that "Red Cliff" was a bad movie. He was confident that "Embroidered Spring Sword" and "Red Cliff" would be released together. The former would definitely win!

After all, Lao Wu’s "Red Cliff" is really shocking.

"But that's Wu Baige! The big director! How could you say that to him?"

"Brother Wen, ask yourself, isn't what I said right? How could Wu Baige direct a historical film like "Red Cliff" in those two tricks? Do you still expect him to put a pigeon when he is facing the enemy in front of the battlefield?"

Xu Hui put down the cup in his hand and stared at Huang Wen seriously.

"Even if this is true, even if "Red Cliff" is smashed, such words should not be heard from you! You are a junior!"

"Then I can only watch the topic of "The Embroidered Spring Sword" completely crushed by "Red Cliff"?"

“We have a plan!”

"What are the plans? What plans will be more effective than I personally criticize "Red Cliff"?"

Xu Hui looked at Huang Wen with a little disdain, and the latter's face was a little unfair.

"What? Wouldn't you have to arrange any scandals for me, right?"
Chapter completed!
