Chapter 5 Going to America
Huiwen Tianxia attaches great importance to its directors and actors. This attention is not only reflected in strong financial support, but also in respect of each other!
Xu Hui rarely says something like "I'll leave it to me!" or "When the company goes public, everyone here is a great hero." More often, when you encounter problems, a few people discuss countermeasures together, and then you can find a relationship to resolve the relationship. If it really cannot be solved, you can modify it...
Especially treating Ning Hao!
"No Man's Land" is basically in stocking.
After Xiao Ma Ben Teng got a Hong Kong and Taiwan director, she might think that our mainland filmmakers have decisively abandoned their old love...
This is really incomparable to Huayi. Although Huayi has maintained a good relationship with the Hong Kong circle, their biggest reliance has not changed, and it is Feng Xiaogang!
Huiwen Tianxia not only took over the distribution of "No Man's Land", but also took over the distribution of "Golden Robbery".
Moreover, in order to make Ning Hao give up completely, or let Xiao Ma let go, Huiwen Tianxia paid all the production fees of the two movies to Xiao Ma. The cost of "No Man's Land" was 16 million, and the production cost of "The Golden Robbery" was 30 million, and the production cost of "The Golden Robbery" was about 40 million in the later period. Huiwen handed over all the money to Xiao Ma...
So, in early December, Huiwen announced the signing of Ning Hao...
The actors have a controversy, but the first director is basically Xu Hui, and no one is dissatisfied with it.
After four years of debut, the global box office has reached 1.6 billion US dollars, which is converted into RMB, which has exceeded 10 billion!
"…Also, I will only participate in the early stages of "The Dao Ma Dan" at most, and I have to rely on you in the later stages. There is an American drama in the United States, and I want to try it..."
"Are you going to fight in Hollywood?"
Lu Yang was a little moved. This was his absolute trust in him, but as a man, he couldn't speak it in words, but instead made a joke.
"...It can't be counted, at most it can only be a way to explore the road. You also know that "Paradise Cinema" has been decided to start filming next year. I always have to adapt to the production process of the American trade union!"
"come on!"
"hehe…"
The two of them joked for a few times, the dressing room door opened, and the hot bar in a suit walked out carefully.
Short hair and back, a black scarf under the collar of the white shirt, and pearls embedded on it, adding charm to the heroic martial arts!
What a heroic beauty!
"Wow!"
Before Xu Hui could speak, Nazha could not help but pounce on him, looking at the hot bar's outfit enviously: "You look so beautiful!"
"Really?"
"Of course it's true!"
Xu Hui smiled and walked forward and joked: "Ask Naza, is she already broken?"
"Bending? What does it mean?"
I can't understand it if I'm hot...
"…It's because your men's clothes are handsome and charming, and all women want to marry you!"
It's really hard, you need to bring your own translation when communicating with these people!
"Tsk tsk, our director really loves the hot bar sister. This look alone is already a man and a woman!"
Liying also came forward, wondering if she was jealous, but in short, a word of praise was a bit sour...
"That's why we can support this kind of look. If the face is too round, it will definitely not work!"
Nazha seemed to have taken gun medicine and said something.
How could Liying be the girl who was criticized by someone and dared not talk back? She immediately reacted: "Haha, what's wrong with a round face? Let's talk about my work..."
"Come on, let's take a final makeup photo first!"
The Shura Field was about to start, and Xu Hui hurriedly smoothed out the situation.
The two girls kept silent at the same time.
After all, it is still a new harem group, and the palace fighting skills are far inferior, and they are still a little scared of Xu Hui, after all, they are the immediate boss...
So, shut up.
However, judging from this trend, it is difficult for Lu Yang to completely control the crew!
Give Lu Yang a look of self-seeking blessings...
The makeup shot was taken in the finale, and the three women were pestering the camera master and posing in various styles.
"Director, can we upload it to Weibo?"
"certainly!"
The makeup photos are taken for promotion.
...
"The Dao Ma Dan" has many Peking Opera scenes, which is a test for Nazha, Liying and Hot Bar.
Cao Yun also sang on stage at the end.
This can only be expected to be more guidance from Mr. Yu Kuizhi. Fortunately, the movie only requires them to be similar. As for real lyrics, there will be professional actors to help with the post-dubbing. If they really want to make their performances look no different from professional Peking Opera actors, can this thing be done with two months of training?
Peking Opera requires ten years of hard work in the audience. Do you think it’s just a joke?
No matter how genius is, they don’t have the skills of the boys in Peking Opera!
Not only the three of them, including Kaikai King and Zhou Yiwei, they all need to receive short-term rapid training in Peking Opera...
After dealing with the preliminary matters of "Daomadan", Xu Hui, Huang Wen, Chen Farong and Liu Sisi left the country on a flight to North America...
...
As of January 12, the box office of "New Dragon Inn" which was released for 28 days exceeded 1.28 billion yuan, and the box office was terrible in a single day, less than 2 million yuan, and the box office potential has been exhausted. It is obvious that not to mention breaking the box office record of "Avatar", even the gap is close to 50 million to "The Lion King Battle".
If it weren't for the collision with "The Flowers of War", I guess there would be a chance to exceed 1.4 billion!
As for "The Flowers of War", the box office of Jinling has fallen below one million in a single day, with a cumulative box office of 480 million. Zhang Weipin's small goal has only been half completed yet...
The mainland market ushered in "The Great Magician" and "The Great Golden Robbery". On the first day, "The Great Magician" won a box office of 21.87 million. "The Great Magician" supported by Liang Chaowei, Liu Qingyun and Zhou Xun only won a box office of 16.76 million...
It is obvious that the attractiveness of traditional Hong Kong movies to mainland audiences has declined!
Of course, this has something to do with Er Dongsheng's never been a director he particularly likes and admires.
When Du Niang searched for Er Dongsheng, the first one was ‘Why is Er Dongsheng not popular…’
Well, maybe because he is too awesome, or thinks that mainland audiences are too easy to fool, so the movies launched on the market are worse than the other...
Of course, Er Dongsheng is also a very talented Hong Kong director. He filmed "The Legend of the Episode" in 1986, and in 1993 there was a movie "The New Love". After entering the new century, "The Unforgettable" allowed Zhang Baizhi to win the Best Actress Award. He was also the first Hong Kong director "The King of Guns" to have a box office of over 100 million...
But after that, he was a little unable to keep up with the trend. When the box office record of mainland movies rose to 1 billion, 2 billion or even 3 billion, his highest box office in the movie was still the 170 million box office record set by the Great Magician...
To be honest, "The Great Magician" is not a good movie, but it is also a passing level.
In terms of plot, it is more like a comedy film like "The East is the World". According to the evaluation of "Ten Wans": "The Great Magician" is a variety of heartless entertainment elements stewed together. Everyone finally found that the whole story has nothing to do with magic. It tells the story of ordinary youth helping literary and artistic youth compete with a young man with a two-fiddle young man to compete for women. In the end, the young people found that they no longer need women.
It’s very happy. There will still be many people supporting such a movie in the New Year holiday.
However, with a box office of 170 million and an investment cost of 80 million, the "Great Magician" still lost...
