Chapter 20 BJ meets Seattle

The reason why most of the co-production movies are bad is that the aesthetic levels of the two countries are different.

For example, Chinese and American movies have been developing for almost a hundred years, and Chinese movies started very late, so they are naturally unequal!

It is difficult to expect to shoot something that suits the common aesthetics of both countries!

Therefore, the co-productions in recent years have been very bad. "Wolf Totem" is already the best among them, because Lu Wei serves as the screenwriter.

Moreover, many great directors are unwilling to be directors of co-productions. Because they are too shackles, they can only draw some directors with some experience but not experienced enough. For example, Nick Powell, the director of "The Legend of White Ghost: The Deadly Escape", is just an assistant director from beginning to end, and has never had the experience of directing a work independently!

Even when we came to China with our Korean director, we made movies that have repeatedly set the lowest limit for bad movies, "Dream Partner", "My New Savage Girlfriend", "Uninvited Guest"...

Movies are the art of directors. They don’t understand the Chinese people’s ideas, so there is a layer between them when they make movies...

Back then, Liu Feifei made eight consecutive shots, and most of them were co-productions...

...

Script creation is a very tedious and boring thing.

Although I have already had a rough idea, it is still very brain-burning to want to go from scratch.

After all, he knows very little about 731 and other things!

Apart from knowing that this is a tragic thing, how miserable it is, I just took a quick look at it, and then I didn't want to watch it again...

It feels so nauseous.

How come there is such a pervert?

"The Devils Are Coming" Natsutsuka Shizukiya ordered the massacre of civilians after the Emperor surrendered, and even regretfully said, "I can never kill Chinese pigs again...'

Also, what was the situation in the Northeast back then? The Japanese also regarded human life as grass in the Northeast?

Is there a sign that hangs "Chinese and dogs are not allowed to enter"?

He needs to check the information bit by bit if he waits!

After all, it involves historical facts...

Alas, writing scripts quickly is just like online writing creation. The word "fast" is the key. For this reason, many online writing writers are constantly updated every day, and their ideas are exhausted and they dare not leave their seats. Their butts are full of prickly heat...

What I fear most is that I encounter a reader’s message: it’s boring, I’ll give up; or something, I’ll lose my expectations, so hurry up and 404!

Stepping on the horse!

I also have to leave a message to comfort me: I still have some orgasm and haven't written it, don't give up on me...

The most true thought in my heart: love is always there, and it is a penny to make a penny, and a penny to make a penny is also a penny to make a penny…

After holding it in for a long time, Paohui decisively gave up.

There are so many professional screenwriters in the company, and one of them provides an idea to make these people mess around!

I found five screenwriters and asked them to be responsible for writing the script of "Beautiful Life"...

...

On March 21, "Beijing Meets Seattle" was released.

This movie is an urban romance film, and it is a chick movie!

Looking through its script, it is obvious that it imitates and localizes the American genre "chief movie".

The movie of Xiaoniu roughly tells a story like this: it mainly involves female characters, telling the story of a young woman with shortcomings and deficiencies when appearing, experiencing various life experiences and finally gaining love.

The market for this type of movie is very good. The box office of "Very Perfect" and "I Will" exceeded 100 million in succession, which is enough to prove that our market needs this type of work!

Xue Xiaolu + Liu Feifei, a fixed partner, has been working together since "My Black Dress", and has already had a fixed audience.

Huiwen Tianxia’s publicity strategy is very accurate!

One month before the release of "Beijing Meets Seattle", the tour trial stages of 10 cities across the country were launched, covering the crowds including theater managers, professional film critics, media reporters, professional screenwriters, ordinary audiences and even well-known figures in the industry.

In addition, an unprecedented large-scale advance movie viewing event was held in Beijing.

Let’s put it this way, this movie saw a box office of 1 million yuan just by the preview. It is precisely because of the massive early viewing that it has created a strong momentum and a very high reputation for the film, which makes the film popular before it is released, and there are already many viewers looking forward to it before it is released!

Of course, this promotional method itself depends on the excellent quality of the movie!

"A good movie requires appropriate publicity methods, and publicity will also achieve twice the result with half the effort because of good quality works."

On the first day of release, "Northwest" won 18 million in the first day of 22% of the screening. It was not too high, but it caused quite a lot of discussion, and the reputation of the movie was even more surprising!

"When you enter the cinema, you have zero expectations and you are full of joy when you leave the cinema. It can be seen that a good movie must transcend the audience's imagination."

"China finally has a normal and decent love movie! And it's very good!"

"Two romantic comedies that are so soft, they are not bad movies. Liu Feifei, Uncle Wu, and Hai Qing can hold on to any unreasonable characters!"

So, the next day, North West won 21 million;

On the third day, 28 million was earned;

On the fourth day, I earned 28 million again!

The first weekend was 95 million, which is predictable. This is a work that started at least 300 million yuan in box office!

The highlights of peers are very important!

There are two works released at the same time as "Northwest": The Ultimate Battle and "Stop Killing Order".

The former is a bit boring to the audience. After all, the recent Hong Kong movies are too terrible. Donnie Yen has filmed several movies, and Da Lao Wang also has "The Grandmaster". The movie star Huang Qiusheng likes to make some shocking remarks. He has been dragged out by a bunch of netizens to whip the corpse. Even if he doesn't have the address of netizens, Huang Qiusheng is not an action star and has insufficient appeal...

As for "Stop Killing Order", uh, academic films, the so-called academic films are films that are all kinds of dull plots and even if they fall asleep while watching the movie, they will not affect the plot...

The movies that are being released are a bunch of bad movies, "Die Hard 5", "Resident Evil 5", "Giant Catcher Jack"...

With such an opponent, "Northwest" is like a god's help!

So, four days after its release, even on weekdays, "Northwest" can still maintain a box office of 20 million yuan per day!

The theaters quietly adjusted the screening volume of "Northwest" to 33%...

...

Objectively speaking, "Beijing Meets Seattle" is not a classic, and it is even a bit far away...

And there are also big problems in terms of three views, the love story of the mistress...

However, if things like love are all related to the three views, then you can't read them!

"Titanic", the story of Dangsi and the goddess, the goddess is already someone else's fiancée, why don't you say that your values ​​are not correct?

The plot is driven purely by lines, typical TV level, the protagonist is American neurocomedy, and the narrative is vulgar and the warmth of melodrama, interspersed with tribute to "Green Card", "Sleepless Night in Seattle" and American Christmas movies.

Xue Xiaolu himself said that the reason why he wanted to set up a mistress was to create suspense: "How can two people get together like this awkward?"

The video was solved well, and the beginning of the unfair three-views turned into a self-reliant ending.

Unfortunately, life is not thick enough, and it lacks some fun as a fairy tale.

I can only say that domestic romance films finally achieved a work with a passing level, and Douban gave 8.2 points, which is mainly encouragement!

Of course, after time precipitation, the movie's rating has dropped to 7.4 points...
Chapter completed!
