Chapter 46: The King (4/5)
"Of course it's true!"
Shen Mengxi nodded affirmatively: "In the eighties and nineties, most of the top ten box office in Hong Kong were comedies, and even at least half of Jackie Chan's blockbuster films were comedy. Hollywood's best-grossing films are not only visual blockbusters, but also comedies that account for the majority of the box office. What does it mean? Comedy itself has the quality of a big hit!"
"The schedule is appropriate, the publicity is in place, and of course, under the premise that the movie itself is very pleasing, the billion box office is not empty talk!"
"What about "The Big Winner"?"
"The Big Winner"...
Shen Mengxi hesitated: "It's a little difficult, let's be honest, Lei Jiayin hasn't formed his own star advantage yet... And "The Big Winner" is more critical, I think the box office is 300 million ~ 800 million is very likely!"
Huang Bo: "Wow, you're in the range of 500 million?"
"It depends on whether "Running Man" has a bonus..."
"Variety shows?"
Shen Mengxi waved his hand: "Don't underestimate the variety show, "Running Man" started from the second issue, the ratings broke three, and in the last issue, it broke four directly, and it is estimated that after the 12th episode is broadcast, the ratings can have six points, what does this mean?"
Several people looked at each other...
Six points?
It's horrible!
"However, I don't recommend all actors to go to variety shows... There are good and bad things about this thing, the good thing is that it can increase popularity, and the bad thing is that the audience doesn't have that sense of mystery!"
Huang Bo nodded thoughtfully...
I wish he would listen!
Too much variety show exposure will make the personal characteristics very distinct, and there will be deep personal characteristics in the film and television roles, which will make the audience feel that what he plays is himself and not the role itself!
The more successful the variety show character, the audience will have a feeling of "jumping the play" for the play you play, which will affect the character building...
It's better for actors not to take on too many variety shows!
......
The celebration of "Walking with God" has been searched for a wave of hot searches...
It's a pity that it didn't lead to the box office - it's already out!
The cumulative total box office is 1.54 billion.
surpassed "Avatar" and ranked first in film history.
originally thought that the results of "Avatar" would dominate for decades like "Titanic", but in just two years, the page was turned over...
The industry is excited!
Tang Ren's market value has also risen to 76 billion - Shen Mengxi's net worth has also risen to 30 billion!
"Teacher's Diary" doesn't make a lot of profits...
After all, it has been released for twenty-three days!
However, the score of 26 million on the first day of "Drug War" is really surprising...
The investment of "Drug War" is 35 million, a standard medium-sized movie.
Cast, Sun Honglei, Gu Tianyu, Zhang Luyi, Wan Qian...
Pure strength lineup!
Although Sun Honglei has "The Guy in My Body", in that movie, he didn't have much time to show his face, mainly Lin Gengxin.
Of course, the results on the first day were good, and we must not take it lightly, after all, on the 29th, the two heroes were released, and the time left for "Drug War" was only three days!
Therefore, it is necessary to step up publicity.
How to advertise?
Blow the scales!
"The biggest challenge to the bottom line of censorship in the history of the "scale" of "Drug War"?", "If you haven't watched the drug war, you won't know how loose the scale of censorship of radio and television is", "Stop complaining about censorship, "Drug War" is a real anti-drug"...
It's actually quite embarrassing...
Our review is really harsh!
Especially self-emasculation under this system!
Let's put it this way, every time some unbelievable new regulations circulate, everyone laughs at it, but the industry knows that it is true.
Our audit system is to never say it clearly, and we realize that those who are iron will be unlucky, so we can only emasculate ourselves more and more.
As for the xx drama that everyone often says, why can it be filmed?
Well, yes, what is the purpose of the non-disclosure rule? It is so that individual projects with special backgrounds can be released, of course, I don't mean to say that these dramas are bad, "The Hidden Corner", "The Silent Truth", I envy them for being able to stand and shoot...
But why is it that after the Hidden Fire is fired, the Misty Theater is almost cold?
Let's put it this way, if the producers of these two dramas were ordinary people, they would definitely have been killed from the beginning of the script...
......
Long street, drizzle.
It's good, a light rain blew away the heat in Beijing.
It was getting late, the street lights were dim, Shen Mengxi and Liu Yifei got out of the car and walked quickly into the door of this hot pot restaurant.
The waiter led the two of them up to the box on the second floor, and Wang Changtian had been waiting for a while.
Lao Wang invited them to dinner...
Although he didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd, Shen Mengxi still had a good impression of Lao Wang.
If nothing else, it is worth admiring to be the first to stand up for him and report the wheel!
Born as a journalist, and then surrounded by the Beijing circle, it is too rare to be able to become a bigwig.
"Here we are..."
Wang Changtian saw the two of them enter the door and got up to greet them.
"Well, I just arrived, and it's not easy to find this place!"
Shen Mengxi took off his coat and hung it on a hanger behind the door.
Liu Yifei shouted: "Uncle Wang..."
Wang Changtian smiled and nodded at her...
Shen Mengxi was unhappy: "No, Lao Wang, are you taking advantage of me?"
"Huh?"
"Instead of calling you uncle, then am I not a generation shorter than you out of thin air?
"Let's go our separate ways..."
Lao Wang's words instantly made Shen Mengxi dream back to "Charlotte": Let's talk about each other, I call you brother, you call me dad...
I always feel like I've suffered a loss!
Seeing Shen Mengxi sitting down, Lao Wang motioned to the waiter to serve the food, and then asked, "I've been busy lately?"
"It's ok... Now that all departments of the company are quite complete, I don't have to be like before..."
"Mengxi's summer file this year is really amazing!"
Shen Mengxi smiled and replied by the way: ""The Four Famous Catches" is okay, right, the next two have been launched?"
“...”
Lao Wang shook his head: "At most, the capital is guaranteed, and those directors in Hong Kong are really not good!"
"If the movie is not profitable enough, can it be made into a TV series..."
"That's all there is to it!"
After a pause, Wang Changtian asked, "Is it reliable to invest in Hollywood?"
“... It's not very reliable, maybe you will be caught!"
Shen Mengxi explained: "Hollywood's annual profitable projects are less than 15%, otherwise Sony would not have rebooted "Spider-Man" again..."
"Then they say that the annual interest rate of platter investment is quite high..."
"He wants to pit your money, of course he will say the annualized rate... There are too few dark horses!"
Lao Wang sighed...
The light is really miserable, especially in this time and space, Xu Zheng was started by Shen Mengxi in advance, and Lao Wang had to rely on the directors of the existing market, but these directors were weak!
"I watched "Left Ear", it's very good, the box office starts at least 300 million!"
“... Really?"
When others say this, Lao Wang may not believe it, but Shen Mengxi is known as the naked eye market...
Although he often blows, he blows all the real data!
For example, in "Walking with God", he boasted that the box office started at 1.5 billion, and it was really 1.54 billion...
"Of course, "Left Ear" itself is quite famous, and the director is a well-known actor transformed... The appeal is here, choose a good schedule, publicize it, I think the market potential is between 3~500 million!"
